     B. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Sellers desire to sell such

     IT IS AGREED:

ARTICLE I

PURCHASE AND SALE OF COMPANY STOCK

     1.1 Purchase and Sale. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions hereof, at the
Closing (as defined in Section 1.5), each of the Sellers hereby agrees to sell, and
Purchaser agrees to purchase and pay for, the shares of Company Stock (as defined in Section
2.3(a)) owned by such Seller, free and clear of all Liens (as defined in Section 10.2(e)).

     1.2 Purchase Price. The aggregate purchase price (“Purchase Price”) to be
paid by the Purchaser to the Sellers for their shares of Company Stock shall be Seventy Five
Million Dollars ($75,000,000), of which Seventy Two Million Five Hundred Twenty-seven Thousand Four
Hundred Seventy Two Dollars and Fifty-three Cents ($72,527,472.53) shall be paid in cash and Two
Million Four Hundred Seventy-two Thousand Five Hundred Twenty-seven Dollars and Forty-seven Cents
($2,472,527.47) shall be paid in shares of the common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the
Purchaser (“Purchaser Stock”), valued at $7.72 per share. Each Seller shall be entitled to
receive the amount of cash and the number of shares of Purchaser Stock allocated to such Seller
pursuant to Section 1.3.

     1.3 Allocation of Purchase Price. The Purchase Price shall be allocated among the
Sellers as set forth in Schedule 1.3 (which allocation is based on the pro rata share of
the Company Stock owned by each Seller).

 

 

     1.4 Payment of Purchase Price.

          (a) Cash Portion. The cash portion of the Purchase Price, less amounts to be placed
in escrow pursuant to Section 1.11, shall be paid to each Seller at the Closing by wire transfer of
immediately available funds to the accounts of the Sellers specified by them in written notice
given to the Purchaser not later than two Business Days (as defined in Section 10.2(f)) prior to
the Closing Date.

          (b) Purchaser Stock Portion. A certificate or certificates representing the number of
shares of Purchaser Stock that each Shareholder/Seller is entitled to receive shall be issued to
such Shareholder/Seller at the Closing.

     1.5 The Closing. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the
consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall take place at a closing (the
“Closing”) to be held at 10:00 a.m., local time, on the fourth Business Day after the date
on which the last of the conditions to Closing set forth in Article VI is fulfilled, at the offices
of Graubard Miller, The Chrysler Building, 405 Lexington Avenue, 19th Floor, New York,
New York 10174-1901, or at such other time, date or place as the Parties may agree upon in writing.
The date on which the Closing takes place is referred to herein as the “Closing Date.”

     1.6 Sellers’ and Company Deliveries. At the Closing, each of the Sellers and the
Company shall deliver to the Purchaser (a) the certificates for the issued and outstanding shares
of Company Stock owned by each Seller, duly endorsed for transfer or with stock powers executed in
blank and (b) the certificates, opinions and other agreements and instruments contemplated by
Article VI hereof and the other provisions of this Agreement.

     1.7 Purchaser’s Deliveries. At the Closing, the Purchaser shall deliver to each of
the Sellers (a) the cash that is to be paid to such Seller, (b) a certificate representing the
number of shares of the Purchaser Stock to be issued to each Shareholder/Seller and (c) the
certificates, opinions and other agreements and instruments contemplated by Article VI hereof and
the other provisions of this Agreement. At the Closing, the Purchaser shall also deliver the
Working Capital Escrow Funds (as defined in Section 1.9(a)), the Indemnity Escrow Funds (as defined
in Section 1.11) and the Discontinued Operations Escrow Funds (as defined in Section 5.25) to
Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (“Continental”), which payment shall be deemed
payment of the portion of the Purchase Price represented thereby.

     1.8 Adjustment to Purchase Price. The Purchase Price shall be adjusted as follows:

          (a) At the Closing, the Representative shall deliver to Purchaser an estimate of the Company’s
Working Capital (as hereinafter defined) at the close of business on the day immediately preceding
the Closing Date (the “Calculation Date Working Capital”), together with a schedule
setting forth his calculation thereof. If the Calculation Date Working Capital is greater than
(i.e. less negative than) a working capital deficit of (-$1,588,462) (the “Target Working
Capital”), the Purchase Price shall be increased on a dollar for dollar basis by the amount of the
difference between the Calculation Date Working Capital and the Target Working Capital. If the

2

 

Calculation Date Working Capital is less than (i.e. more negative than) the Target Working Capital,
the Purchase Price shall be decreased on a dollar for dollar basis by the amount of the difference
between the Target Working Capital and the Calculation Date Working Capital. As used in this
Section 1.8, (i) “Working Capital” means, as of the date at which the calculation is made, the sum
of (A) current assets excluding cash plus (B) $616,438 representing 3-Day check float minus (C)
current liabilities minus (D) the aggregate amount of checks outstanding at such date that were
issued in payment of accounts payable, determined in a manner consistent with the methodology used
in Exhibit A. During the period prior to the Closing Date, the Company will continue to
use practices consistent with those used by the Company prior to the date of this Agreement with
respect to working capital, including collections and disbursements practices and procedures.

          (b) As promptly as practicable following the Closing Date, but in no event later than thirty
(30) days thereafter (the “30-Day Period”), the Purchaser shall cause to be prepared and
delivered to the Representative an unaudited balance sheet of the Company at the close of business
on the day immediately preceding the Closing Date (the “Closing Balance Sheet”) together
with a schedule setting forth the actual Working Capital as of the Closing Date (the “Closing
Working Capital”) calculated in a manner consistent with the calculation of the Calculation
Date Working Capital. The Closing Balance Sheet shall be prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and
in a manner consistent with the past practices of the Seller and the Unaudited Financial Statements
(as defined in Section 2.7(b)).

          (c) On the fifteenth (15th) day after the date on which the Closing Balance Sheet and the
Closing Working Capital schedule have been delivered to the Representative (or such earlier date as
the Representative notifies the Purchaser in writing), if the Closing Working Capital is not
disputed by the Representative pursuant to Section 1.8(e) hereof, (i) if the Closing Working
Capital exceeds the Calculation Date Working Capital, then the Purchaser shall immediately pay to
each Seller his portion, based on the relative ownership of the outstanding shares of Company
Stock, of the amount by which the Closing Working Capital exceeds the Calculation Date Working
Capital (the “Working Capital Surplus”), and (ii) if the Calculation Date Working Capital
exceeds the Closing Working Capital (such excess amount being the “Working Capital
Deficit”), then each Seller shall immediately pay to the Purchaser his pro rata portion, based
on the relative ownership of the outstanding shares of Company Stock, of the Working Capital
Deficit. If the Representative does not deliver a Dispute Notice (as defined in Section 1.8(e)) to
the Purchaser within fifteen (15) days after the delivery of the Closing Balance Sheet and the
Closing Working Capital schedule to the Representative (the “15-Day Period”), the Closing
Balance Sheet and the amount of Closing Working Capital derived therefrom shall be deemed accepted
in all respects by the Representative and shall be final and binding upon the parties hereto with
the effects set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) of this subsection (c).

          (d) During the 15-Day Period, the Purchaser agrees to furnish to the Representative and its
accountants and agents full access to all working papers, books, records, financial data,
calculations and other documentation used in the preparation of the proposed Closing Balance Sheet
and the calculation of the Closing Working Capital.

3

 

          (e) If the Representative disputes the Closing Balance Sheet (or any component thereof) or the
calculation of the Closing Working Capital shown on the Closing Balance Sheet (or any component
thereof), the Representative shall give written notice (the “Dispute Notice”) to the
Purchaser within the 15-Day Period, which Dispute Notice shall specify in reasonable detail the
matters and the reasons for such dispute and the amount(s) in dispute. If the Representative and
the Purchaser are unable to resolve the disputed matters within thirty (30) days after receipt by
the Purchaser of the Dispute Notice, all disputed matters raised in the Dispute Notice and not so
resolved (the “Disputed Matters”) shall be submitted to a recognized independent accounting
firm with offices located within 100 miles of Wilmington, Delaware, as is chosen by mutual
agreement of the Representative and the Purchaser acting in good faith (such firm which accepts the
engagement, the “Independent Auditor”), for final resolution in accordance with the terms
and provisions of this Agreement. The Purchaser and the Representative shall use their respective
best efforts to cause the Independent Auditor to make its determination as to the resolution of the
Disputed Matters (the “Auditor Determination”) as soon as possible, but in no event later
than thirty (30) days after receipt of the Disputed Matters. The Independent Auditor shall be
obligated to follow the Purchase Price adjustment terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement
and shall not be entitled to award an amount greater than the greatest value claimed by either
party or less than the least amount claimed by either party. The Auditor Determination shall be
final and binding upon the parties hereto and shall be limited to Disputed Matters. The Auditor
Determination shall be reflected in a written report which shall be delivered promptly by the
Independent Auditor to the Representative and the Purchaser. One-half of all fees and disbursements
of the Independent Auditor shall be paid by the Purchaser and one-half of such fees and
disbursements shall be paid by the Sellers. Any payment to be made as a consequence of the Auditor
Determination by the Independent Auditor shall be made, in accordance with the provisions of
clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 1.8(c), free and clear of any deductions or set-off, not later than
three business days after the receipt of the Auditor Determination by the Representative on behalf
of Sellers and the Purchaser.

          (f) All amounts paid pursuant to this Section 1.8 shall be paid by bank wire transfer of
immediately available funds.

     1.9 Twelve-Month Working Capital Adjustment.

          (a) If the average of the amounts of Working Capital (the “Average Working Capital”)
of the Company calculated on the last day of each month for the twelve-month period ending March
31, 2008 (the “Measurement Period”) in a manner consistent with the methodology in
Exhibit B is greater than (i.e., less negative than) a working capital deficit of
$1,588,462 (-1,588,462), the Sellers shall pay to the Company an amount equal to such difference
but not in excess of $500,000. To provide a fund for the payment amounts due to the Purchaser
pursuant to this Section 1.9, at the Closing, the Sellers shall deposit in escrow the aggregate
amount of $500,000 (the “Working Capital Escrow Funds”), allocated among the Sellers as set
forth in Schedule 1.9 , to be held until the amount of the Average Working Capital is
finally determined pursuant to this Section 1.9, all in accordance with the terms and conditions
of the Escrow Agreement to be entered into at the Closing between the Purchaser, the Sellers and
Continental, as Escrow Agent, in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit C (the “Escrow
Agreement”). During the period between the Closing Date and the end of the Measurement

4

 

Period, the Purchaser will cause the Company to use practices consistent with those used by
the Company prior to the Closing Date with respect to working capital, including collections and
disbursements practices and procedures.

          (b) As promptly as practicable following the end of the Measurement Period, but in no event
later than twenty (20) days thereafter (the “20-Day Period”), the Purchaser shall cause to
be prepared and delivered to the Representative its calculation of the Average Working Capital,
calculated in a manner consistent with the past practices of the Seller.

          (c) On the fifteenth (15th) day after the date on which the Purchaser’s calculation of the
Average Working Capital shall have been delivered to the Representative (or such earlier date as
the Representative notifies the Purchaser in writing), (i) if the Average Working Capital as so
calculated by the Purchaser is less than (i.e., more negative than) a working capital deficit of
$1,588,462 (-$1,588,462), the Purchaser shall authorize the Escrow Agent to pay to the
Representative the full amount of the Working Capital Escrow Fund or (ii) if the Average Working
Capital as so calculated by the Purchaser is greater than a working capital deficit of $1,588,462
(-$1,588,462), and is not disputed by the Representative, then the Purchaser shall authorize the
Escrow Agent to pay to the Purchaser the amount of such difference from the Working Capital Escrow
Fund and to deliver the balance of the Working Capital Escrow Fund, if any, to the Representative.
If the Representative does not deliver a Working Capital Dispute Notice (as defined in Section
1.9(d)) to the Purchaser within ten (10) days after the delivery of the Purchaser’s calculation of
the Average Working Capital to the Representative (the “10-Day Period”), the Average
Working Capital as calculated by the Purchaser shall be deemed accepted in all respects by the
Representative and shall be final and binding upon the parties hereto with the effects set forth in
clauses (i) and (ii) of this subsection (c).

If the Representative disputes the calculation of the Average Working Capital as calculated by the
Purchaser, the Representative shall give written notice (the “Working Capital Dispute
Notice”) to the Purchaser within the 10-Day Period, which Working Capital Dispute Notice shall
specify in reasonable detail the matters and the reasons for such dispute and the amount(s) in
dispute. If the Representative and the Purchaser are unable to resolve the disputed matters within
thirty (30) days after receipt by the Purchaser of the Working Capital Dispute Notice, all disputed
matters raised in the Working Capital Dispute Notice and not so resolved (the “Working Capital
Disputed Matters”) shall be submitted to the Independent Auditor determined in the manner set
forth in Section 1.8(e) for final resolution in accordance with the terms and provisions of this
Agreement. The Purchaser and the Representative shall use their respective best efforts to cause
the Independent Auditor to make its determination as to the resolution of the Working Capital
Disputed Matters (the “Auditor Working Capital Determination”) as soon as possible, but in
no event later than thirty (30) days after receipt of the Working Capital Disputed Matters. The
Independent Auditor shall be obligated to follow the terms and conditions set forth in this
Agreement regarding the determination of Average Working Capital and shall not be entitled to award
an amount greater than the greatest value claimed by either party or less than the least amount
claimed by either party. The Auditor Working Capital Determination shall be final and binding upon
the parties hereto and shall be limited to Working Capital Disputed Matters. The Auditor Working
Capital Determination shall be reflected in a written report which shall be delivered promptly by
the Independent Auditor to the Representative and the Purchaser.

5

 

One-half of all fees and disbursements of the Independent Auditor shall be paid by the Purchaser
and one-half of such fees and disbursements shall be paid by the Sellers. Any payment to be made as
a consequence of the Auditor Working Capital Determination by the Independent Auditor shall be
made, in accordance with the provisions of clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 1.9(c), free and clear
of any deductions or set-off, not later than three business days after the receipt of the Auditor
Working Capital Determination by the Representative on behalf of Sellers and the Purchaser.

     1.10 Further Assurances; Post-Closing Cooperation. Subject to the terms and
conditions of this Agreement, at any time or from time to time after the Closing, each of the
Parties shall execute and deliver such other documents and instruments, provide such materials and
information and take such other actions as may reasonably be necessary, proper or advisable, to the
extent permitted by law, to fulfill its obligations under this Agreement and the other documents
relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to which it is a party.

     1.11 Indemnity Escrow. To provide a fund for the payment amounts due to the Purchaser
pursuant to the indemnity obligations of the Sellers set forth in Article VII, at the Closing, the
Sellers shall deposit in escrow the aggregate amount of $7,500,000 (the “Indemnity Escrow
Funds”), allocated among the Sellers as set forth in Schedule 1.11 ,to be held for the
period ending eighteen months after the Closing Date (the “Indemnity Escrow Period”) and
for such further period as may be required pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, subject to earlier
release as provided for in the Escrow Agreement, all in accordance with the terms and conditions
of the Escrow Agreement.

     1.12 Certain Seller Matters.

          (a) Each Shareholder/Seller, for himself only, represents and warrants as follows: (i) all
Purchaser Stock to be acquired by such Seller pursuant to this Agreement will be acquired for his
account and not with a view towards distribution thereof; (ii) he understands that he must bear the
economic risk of the investment in the Purchaser Stock, which cannot be sold by him unless it is
registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or an
exemption therefrom is available thereunder; (iii) he has had both the opportunity to ask questions
and receive answers from the officers and directors of the Purchaser and all persons acting on the
Purchaser’s behalf concerning the business and operations of the Purchaser and to obtain any
additional information to the extent the Purchaser possesses or may possess such information or can
acquire it without unreasonable effort or expense necessary to verify the accuracy of such
information; and (iv) he has had access to the Purchaser SEC Reports (as defined in Section 3.7(a))
filed prior to the date of this Agreement. Each Shareholder/Seller acknowledges, as to himself
only, that (v) he is either (A) an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Rule 501(a)

in financial and business matters to enable him to evaluate the merits and risks of an investment
in the Purchaser; and (vi) he understands that the certificates representing the Purchaser Stock to
be received by him may bear legends to the effect that the Purchaser Stock may not be transferred

exemption therefrom) and (D) the provisions of this Agreement.

6

 

          (b) Each Seller, for himself or itself, represents and warrants that the execution and
delivery of this Agreement by such Seller does not, and the performance of his or its obligations
hereunder will not, require any consent, approval, authorization or permit of, or filing with or
notification to, any court, administrative agency, commission, governmental or regulatory
authority, domestic or foreign (a “Governmental Entity”), except (i) for applicable
requirements, if any, of the Securities Act, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
(“Exchange Act”), state securities laws (“Blue Sky Laws”), and the rules and
regulations thereunder, and (ii) where the failure to obtain such consents, approvals,
authorizations or permits, or to make such filings or notifications, would not, individually or in
the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect (as defined in Section
10.2(a)) on such Seller or the Company or, after the Closing, the Purchaser, or prevent
consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or otherwise prevent the parties
hereto from performing their respective obligations under this Agreement.

efforts to file and cause to be declared effective a registration statement on Form S-3 under the

reasonable efforts to keep such registration statement effective.

and, in his absence, Jay Maier (the “Representative”) to represent the interests of the
Sellers for the purposes of the Escrow Agreement, giving consents and approvals hereunder and

Agreement or which could reasonably be expected, either singularly or in the aggregate with all
such claims, actions or proceedings, to have a Material Adverse Effect on the Company or have a
Material Adverse Effect on the ability of the parties hereto to consummate the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement.

     2.11 Employee Benefit Plans.

          (a) Schedule 2.11(a) lists all material employee compensation, incentive, fringe or
benefit plans, programs, policies, commitments or other arrangements (whether or not set forth in a
written document) covering any active or former employee, director or consultant of the Company, or
any trade or business (whether or not incorporated) which is under common control with the Company,
with respect to which the Company has liability (individually, a “Plan” and, collectively,
the “Plans”). All Plans have been maintained and administered in all material respects in
compliance with their respective terms and with the requirements prescribed by any and all
statutes, orders, rules and regulations which are applicable to such Plans and all liabilities with
respect to the Plans have been properly reflected in the financial statements and records of the
Company. No suit, action or other litigation (excluding claims for benefits incurred in the
ordinary course of Plan activities) has been brought, or, to the knowledge of the Company, is
threatened, against or with respect to any Plan. There are no audits, inquiries or proceedings
pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened by any governmental agency with respect to
any Plan. All contributions, reserves or premium payments required to be made or accrued as of the

commitment to establish any new Plan, to modify any Plan (except to the extent required by law or
to conform any such Plan to the requirements of any applicable law, in each case as previously
disclosed to the Purchaser in writing, or as required by this Agreement), or to enter into any new
Plan. Each Plan can be amended, terminated or otherwise discontinued after the Closing in
accordance with its terms, without liability to the Purchaser or the Company (other than ordinary
administration expenses and expense for benefits accrued but not yet paid).

          (b) Except as disclosed in Schedule 2.11, neither the execution and delivery of this

14

 

any payment (including severance, unemployment compensation, golden parachute, bonus or
otherwise) becoming due to any stockholder, director or employee of the Company under any Plan or
otherwise, (ii) materially increase any benefits otherwise payable under any Plan, or (iii) result
in the acceleration of the time of payment or vesting of any such benefits.

2.13, to the Company’s knowledge, there is no agreement, commitment, judgment, injunction,
order or decree binding upon the Company or its assets or to which the Company is a party which has
or could reasonably be expected to have the effect of prohibiting or materially impairing any

Effect on the Company.

interfere with the present use of the property affected thereby. Schedule 2.14(a) also
contains a list of all options or other contracts under which the Company has a right to acquire
any interest in real property.

          (b) All leases of real property held by the Company (which are listed on Schedule

Liens disclosed in the Audited Financial Statements or in Schedule 2.14(b), none of which
has or will have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect on such property or
on the present or contemplated use of such property in the businesses of the Company.

15

the existence of such default or event of default could not reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect on the Company.

default under, any Company Contract, and no party to any Company Contract has given any

required to be maintained by Company Contracts.

by it) necessary to the conduct by the Company of its business (as presently conducted and as
presently proposed to be conducted) or used or held for use by the Company, and true, complete and
correct copies of which have heretofore been delivered to the Purchaser. Each such Governmental
Action/Filing is in full force and effect and, except as disclosed in Schedule 2.21(a),
will not expire prior to December 31, 2008, and the Company is in compliance with all of its
obligations with respect thereto. No event has occurred and is continuing which requires or
permits, or after notice or lapse of time or both would require or permit, and, except as may
result from the status of the Purchaser as a holder of the Company Stock, consummation of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any ancillary documents will not require or permit
(with or without notice or lapse of time, or both), any modification or termination of any such
Governmental Actions/Filings except such events which, either individually or in the aggregate,
would not have a Material Adverse Effect upon the Company.

          (b) Except as set forth in Schedule 2.21(b), no Governmental Action/Filing is
necessary to be obtained, secured or made by the Company to enable it to continue to conduct its
businesses and operations and use its properties after the Closing in a manner which is consistent
with current practice.

          (c) For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Governmental Action/Filing” shall mean
any franchise, license, certificate of compliance, authorization, consent, order, permit, approval,
consent or other action of, or any filing, registration or qualification with, any federal, state,
municipal, foreign or other governmental, administrative or judicial body, agency or authority.

     2.22 Interested Party Transactions. Except as set forth in the Schedule 2.22,
no Seller or any employee, officer or director of the Company or a member of his or her immediate
family is indebted to the Company, nor is the Company indebted (or committed to make loans or
extend or guarantee credit) to any of such Persons, other than (i) for payment of salary for
services

22

 

rendered, (ii) reimbursement for reasonable expenses incurred on behalf of the Company, and
(iii) for other employee benefits made generally available to all employees. Except as set forth
in Schedule 2.22, to the Company’s knowledge, none of such individuals has any direct or
indirect ownership interest in any Person with whom the Company is affiliated or with whom the
Company has a contractual relationship, or in any Person that competes with the Company, except
that each employee, stockholder, officer or director of the Company and members of their respective
immediate families may own less than 5% of the outstanding stock in publicly traded companies that
may compete with the Company. Except as set forth in Schedule 2.22, to the knowledge of
the Company, no officer, director or Seller or any member of their immediate families is, directly
or indirectly, interested in any Material Company Contract with the Company (other than such
contracts as relate to any such Person’s ownership of capital stock or other securities of the
Company or such Person’s employment with the Company).

     2.23 Representations and Warranties Complete. The representations and warranties of
the Company included in this Agreement and any list, statement, document or information set forth
in, or attached to, any Schedule provided pursuant to this Agreement or delivered hereunder, are

of the Company set forth in this Agreement shall survive the Closing until the end of the Indemnity
Escrow Period or as otherwise set forth in Section 7.4(a).

Approvals necessary to own, lease and operate the properties it purports to own, operate or lease
and to carry on its business as it is now being or currently planned by the Purchaser to be
conducted, except where the failure to have such Approvals could not, individually or in the

correct copies of the Charter Documents of the Purchaser, as amended and currently in effect, have
been heretofore delivered to the Company. The Purchaser is not in violation of any of the
provisions of the Purchaser’s Charter Documents.

          (b) The Purchaser is duly qualified or licensed to do business as a foreign corporation and is
in good standing, in each jurisdiction where the character of the properties owned, leased or
operated by it or the nature of its activities makes such qualification or licensing necessary,

individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on the
Purchaser. At or prior to the Closing, the Purchaser will be duly qualified or licensed to do
business as a foreign corporation and in good standing in each jurisdiction where the character of
the properties acquired by it pursuant to this Agreement makes such qualification or licensing
necessary.

indirectly, any ownership, equity, profits or voting interest in any Person or have any agreement
or commitment to purchase any such interest, and the Purchaser has not agreed and is not obligated

understanding, instrument, note, option, warranty, purchase order, license, sublicense, insurance

Purchaser SEC Reports, there are no registrations rights, and there is no voting trust, proxy,

than the Purchaser Stockholder Approval (as defined in Section 5.1(a)). This Agreement has been
duly and validly executed and delivered by the Purchaser and, assuming the due authorization,
execution and delivery thereof by the other parties hereto, constitutes the legal and binding
obligation of the Purchaser, enforceable against the Purchaser in accordance with its terms, except
as may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar laws affecting the
enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity.

     3.5 No Conflict; Required Filings and Consents.

of this Agreement by the Purchaser shall not: (i) conflict with or violate the Purchaser’s Charter
Documents, (ii) conflict with or violate any Legal Requirements, or (iii) result in any breach of
or constitute a default (or an event that with notice or lapse of time or both would become a

cancellation of, or result in the creation of a Lien on any of the properties or assets of the
Purchaser pursuant to, any the Purchaser Contracts, except, with respect to clauses

that would not, individually and in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect on the Purchaser.

          (b) The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Purchaser do not, and the performance
of their respective obligations hereunder will not, require any consent, approval, authorization or
permit of, or filing with or notification to, any Governmental Entity, except (i) for applicable
requirements, if any, of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, Blue Sky Laws, and the rules and
regulations thereunder, and appropriate documents with the relevant authorities of other
jurisdictions in which the Purchaser is qualified to do business and (ii) where the failure to
obtain such consents, approvals, authorizations or permits, or to make such filings or
notifications, would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect on the Purchaser, or prevent consummation of the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement or otherwise prevent the parties hereto from performing their obligations under
this Agreement.

     3.6 Compliance. The Purchaser has complied with, and is not in violation of, any
Legal Requirements with respect to the conduct of its business, or the ownership or operation of

circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Except to the extent set forth in the
preceding sentence, the Purchaser makes no representation or warranty whatsoever concerning any the
Purchaser SEC Report as of any time other than the date or period with respect to which it was

complied or will comply as to form in all material respects with the published rules and
regulations of the Commission with respect thereto, was or will be prepared in accordance with U.S.
GAAP applied on a consistent basis throughout the periods involved (except as may be indicated in
the notes thereto or, in the case of unaudited statements, do not contain footnotes as permitted by
Form 10-QSB of the Exchange Act) and each fairly presents or will fairly present in all material
respects the financial position of the Purchaser at the respective dates thereof and the results of
its operations and cash flows for the periods indicated, except that the unaudited interim

contingent or otherwise) that are, individually or in the aggregate, material to the business,
results of operations or financial condition of the Purchaser, except (i) liabilities provided for
in or otherwise disclosed in the Purchaser SEC Reports filed prior to the date hereof, and (ii)

since December 31, 2006, there has not been: (i) any Material Adverse Effect on the Purchaser, (ii)
any declaration, setting aside or payment of any dividend on, or other distribution (whether in
cash, stock or property) in respect of, any of the Purchaser’s capital stock, or any purchase,
redemption or other acquisition by the Purchaser of any of the Purchaser’s capital stock or any
other securities of the Purchaser or any options, warrants, calls or rights to acquire any such
shares or other securities, (iii) any split, combination or reclassification of any of the
Purchaser’s capital stock, (iv) any granting by the Purchaser of any increase in compensation or
fringe benefits, except for normal increases of cash compensation in the ordinary course of

the Purchaser of any increase in severance or termination pay or any entry by the Purchaser into
any currently effective employment, severance, termination or indemnification agreement or any
agreement the benefits of which are contingent or the terms of which are materially altered upon
the occurrence of a transaction involving the Purchaser of the nature contemplated hereby, (v)
entry by the Purchaser into any licensing or other agreement with regard to the acquisition or
disposition of any Intellectual Property other than licenses in the ordinary course of business
consistent with past practice or any amendment or consent with respect to any licensing agreement
filed or required to be filed by the Purchaser with respect to any Governmental Entity, (vi) any
material change by the Purchaser in its accounting methods, principles or practices, except as
required by concurrent changes in U.S. GAAP, (vii) any change in the auditors of the Purchaser,

any of its assets, including, without limitation, writing down the value of capitalized inventory

the ordinary course of business.

27

 

     3.10 Litigation. There are no claims, suits, actions or proceedings pending or to the
Purchaser’s knowledge, threatened against the Purchaser, before any court, governmental department,
commission, agency, instrumentality or authority, or any arbitrator that seeks to restrain or
enjoin the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or which could
reasonably be expected, either singularly or in the aggregate with all such claims, actions or
proceedings, to have a Material Adverse Effect on the Purchaser or have a Material Adverse Effect
on the ability of the parties hereto to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

     3.11 Employee Benefit Plans. Except as may be contemplated by the Purchaser Plan (as
defined in Section 5.1(a)), the Purchaser does not maintain, and has no liability under, any Plan,
and neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement nor the consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby will (i) result in any payment (including severance, unemployment compensation,

Purchaser, or (ii) result in the acceleration of the time of payment or vesting of any such
benefits.

     3.12 Labor Matters. The Purchaser is not a party to any collective bargaining
agreement or other labor union contract applicable to persons employed by the Purchaser and the

as any text as to which the Company has not commented upon being given a reasonable opportunity to
comment, shall, notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5.3, be deemed to have been approved by
the Company and may henceforth be used by the Purchaser in other filings made by it with the
Commission and in other documents distributed by the Purchaser in connection with the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement without further review or consent of the Sellers or the Company.
Promptly after the execution of this Agreement, the Purchaser and the Company shall also issue a

respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in any report or form to be filed with
the Commission (“Closing Form 8-K”), which shall be in a form reasonably acceptable to the
Company and in a format acceptable for EDGAR filing. Prior to Closing, the Purchaser and the
Company shall prepare the press release announcing the consummation of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement (“Closing Press Release”). Concurrently with the Closing,
the Purchaser shall file the Closing Form 8-K with the Commission and distribute the Closing Press
Release.

obligations of the parties to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

          (ii) The Purchaser will afford the Company and its financial advisors, underwriters,

investigation or proceeding by any Governmental Entity, (iii) the obtaining of all consents,
approvals or waivers from third parties required as a result of the transactions contemplated in
this Agreement, including without limitation the consents referred to in Schedule 2.5 of
the Company Disclosure Schedule, (iv) the defending of any suits, claims, actions, investigations

exercise control of such assets, properties and stock.

such Seller’s (i) status as a holder of an equity interest in the Company; and (ii) employment,
service, consulting or other similar agreement entered into with the Company prior to Closing to

contemplated hereby.

     5.10 No Securities Transactions. Neither the Company nor any Seller or any of their

Fund only (a) to the Purchaser’s public stockholders in the event they elect to convert

41

 

their shares into cash in accordance with the Purchaser’s Charter Documents and/or the
liquidation of the Purchaser or (b) to the Purchaser in connection with and in furtherance of the
consummation of a business combination. The Company and the Sellers further acknowledge that, if
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or, upon termination of this Agreement, another

the Sellers, for themselves and their subsidiaries, affiliated entities, directors, officers,
employees, stockholders, representatives, advisors and all other associates and affiliates, hereby

including but not limited to a breach of this Agreement by the Purchaser or any negotiations,
agreements or understandings with the Purchaser (whether in the past, present or future), and will
not seek recourse against the Trust Fund at any time for any reason whatsoever. This paragraph
will survive this Agreement and will not expire and will not be altered in any way without the
express written consent of the Purchaser, the Company and the Sellers.

     5.12 Disclosure of Certain Matters. Each of the Purchaser, the Company and each
Seller will provide the others with prompt written notice of any event, development or condition

misleading or which may affect its ability to consummate the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement, (b) had it existed or been known on the date hereof would have been required to be
disclosed under this Agreement, (c) gives such party any reason to believe that any of the
conditions set forth in Article VI will not be satisfied, (d) is of a nature that would be

the date of this Agreement, would have been required to be set forth or described in the Disclosure

obtain the consents, approvals, authorizations and permits listed on Schedule 2.5(b), in
each case without the payment of any consideration by the Company or material adverse change to any
Company Contract or other right or obligation of the Company. Each such consent, approval,
authorization and permit may be conditioned upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement and shall be effective as of the Closing Date.

agreement or covenant reasonably within the control of the Company) does not, or will not,
constitute a Material Adverse Effect on the Company, and the Company Closing Certificate shall
include a provision to such effect.

          (c) No Litigation. No action, suit or proceeding shall be pending or threatened
before any Governmental Entity which is reasonably likely to (i) prevent consummation of any of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) cause any of the

49

 

transactions contemplated by this Agreement to be rescinded following consummation or (iii)
affect materially and adversely the right of the Purchaser to own, operate or control any of the
assets and operations of the Company following the Closing and no order, judgment, decree,
stipulation or injunction to any such effect shall be in effect.

          (d) Consents. The Company shall have obtained all consents, waivers, permits and
approvals required to be obtained by the Company in connection with the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby, other than consents, waivers and approvals the absence of which,
either alone or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect on the Company and the Company Closing Certificate shall include a provision to such effect.

          (e) Material Adverse Effect. No Material Adverse Effect with respect to the Company
shall have occurred since the date of this Agreement.

          (f) Opinion of Counsel. The Purchaser shall have received from Timothy K. Corley,
counsel to the Company, an opinion of counsel in such form as is customary for transactions of the
nature contemplated by this Agreement.

          (g) “Comfort” Letter. The Purchaser shall have received a “comfort” letter in the
customary form from the Company’s independent accountants dated the Closing Date with respect to
certain financial statements and other information included in the Proxy Statement.

effect and the executives thereunder shall be ready, willing and able to serve in the capacities
provided for therein.

ARTICLE VII

INDEMNIFICATION

     7.1 Indemnification of the Purchaser.

          (a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Article VII (including without limitation the
limitations set forth in Section 7.4), the Purchaser, the Company and their respective
representatives, successors and permitted assigns (the “Purchaser Indemnitees”) shall be
indemnified, defended and held harmless by the Sellers, but, except as otherwise provided for
herein, only to the extent of the Indemnity Escrow Funds, from and against all Losses asserted
against, resulting to, imposed upon, or incurred by any Purchaser Indemnitee by reason of, arising
out of or resulting from:

          (i) the inaccuracy or breach of any representation or warranty of the Sellers or the
Company contained in or made pursuant to this Agreement, any Schedule or any certificate
delivered by the Sellers or the Company to the Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement with
respect hereto or thereto in connection with the Closing;

          (ii) the non-fulfillment or breach of any covenant or agreement of the Sellers or the
Company contained in this Agreement;

          (iii) [intentionally omitted];

          (iv) costs in excess of $120,000 incurred by the Company in payment of, or reasonably
reserved by the Company for the payment of, workers’ compensation claims arising out of
events occurring prior to the Closing Date.

          (b) As used in this Article VII, the term “Losses” shall include all losses,
liabilities, damages, judgments, awards, orders, penalties, settlements, costs and expenses
(including, without limitation, interest, penalties, court costs and reasonable legal fees and
expenses) including those arising from any demands, claims, suits, actions, costs of investigation,
notices of violation or noncompliance, causes of action, proceedings and assessments whether or not
made by third parties or whether or not ultimately determined to be valid. Solely for the purpose
of determining the amount of any Losses (and not for determining any breach) for which a Purchaser
Indemnitee may be entitled to indemnification pursuant to Article VII, any representation or
warranty contained in this Agreement that is qualified by a term or terms such as “material,”
“materially,” or “Material Adverse Effect” shall be deemed made or given without such qualification
and without giving effect to such words.

     7.2 Indemnification of Third Party Claims. The indemnification obligations and
liabilities under this Article VII with respect to actions, proceedings, lawsuits, investigations,
demands or other claims brought against the Purchaser by a Person other than the Sellers or the
Company (a “Third Party Claim”) shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:

51

 

          (a) Notice of Claim. The Purchaser will give the Representative prompt written notice
after receiving written notice of any Third Party Claim or discovering the liability, obligation or
facts giving rise to such Third Party Claim (a “Notice of Claim”) which Notice of Third
Party Claim shall set forth (i) a brief description of the nature of the Third Party Claim, (ii)
the total amount of the actual out-of-pocket Loss or the anticipated potential Loss (including any
costs or expenses which have been or may be reasonably incurred in connection therewith), and (iii)
whether such Loss may be covered (in whole or in part) under any insurance and the estimated amount
of such Loss which may be covered under such insurance, and the Representative shall be entitled to
participate in the defense of Third Party Claim at its expense.

          (b) Defense. The Representative shall have the right, at its option (subject to the
limitations set forth in subsection 7.2(c) below) and at its own expense, by written notice to the
Purchaser, to assume the entire control of, subject to the right of the Purchaser to participate
(at its expense and with counsel of its choice) in, the defense, compromise or settlement of the
Third Party Claim as to which such Notice of Claim has been given, and shall be entitled to appoint
a recognized and reputable counsel reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser to be the lead counsel in
connection with such defense. If the Representative is permitted and elects to assume the defense
of a Third Party Claim:

          (i) the Representative shall diligently and in good faith defend such Third Party Claim
and shall keep the Purchaser reasonably informed of the status of such defense; provided,
however, that the Purchaser shall have the right to approve any settlement that requires any
relief other than the payment of money in amounts not exceeding the amount of Indemnity
Escrow Funds that are not reserved for the payment of unresolved Claims, which approval
shall not be unreasonably delayed, withheld or conditioned; and

          (ii) the Purchaser shall cooperate fully in all respects with the Representative in any
such defense, compromise or settlement thereof, including, without limitation, the selection
of counsel, and the Purchaser shall make available to the Representative all pertinent
information and documents under its control.

          (c) Limitations of Right to Assume Defense. The Representative shall not be entitled
to assume control of such defense if (i) the Third Party Claim relates to or arises in connection
with any criminal proceeding, action, indictment, allegation or investigation; (ii) the Third Party
Claim seeks an injunction or equitable relief against the Purchaser; or (iii) there is a reasonable
probability that a Third Party Claim may materially and adversely affect the Purchaser other than
as a result of money damages or other money payments.

          (d) Other Limitations. Failure to give prompt Notice of Claim or to provide copies of
relevant available documents or to furnish relevant available data shall not constitute a defense
(in whole or in part) to any Third Party Claim by the Purchaser against the Sellers and shall not
affect the Sellers’ duty or obligations under this Article VII, except to the extent (and only to
the extent that) such failure shall have adversely affected the ability of the Representative to
defend against or reduce Sellers’ liability or caused or increased such liability or otherwise
caused the damages for which the Sellers obligated to be greater than such damages would have

52

 

been had the Purchaser given the Representative prompt notice hereunder. So long as the
Representative is defending any such action actively and in good faith, the Purchaser shall not
settle such action. The Purchaser shall make available to the Representative all relevant records
and other relevant materials required by Representative’s possession or under the control of the
Purchaser, for the use of the Representative and its representatives in defending any such action,
and shall in other respects give reasonable cooperation in such defense.

          (e) Failure to Defend. If the Representative, promptly after receiving a Notice of
Claim, fails to defend such Third Party Claim actively and in good faith, the Purchaser will (upon
further written notice) have the right to undertake the defense, compromise or settlement of such
Third Party Claim as it may determine in its reasonable discretion, provided that the
Representative shall have the right to approve any settlement, which approval will not be
unreasonably delayed, withheld or conditioned.

          (f) Purchaser’s Rights. Anything in this Section 7.2 to the contrary notwithstanding,
the Representative shall not, without the written consent of the Purchaser, settle or compromise
any action or consent to the entry of any judgment which does not include as an unconditional term
thereof the giving by the claimant or the plaintiff to the Purchaser of a full and unconditional
release from all liability and obligation in respect of such action without any payment by the
Purchaser.

          (g) Representative Consent. Unless the Representative has consented to a settlement
of a Third Party Claim, the amount of the settlement shall not be a binding determination of the
amount of the Loss and such amount shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of the
Escrow Agreement.

     7.3 Insurance Effect. To the extent that any Losses that are subject to
indemnification pursuant to this Article VII are covered by insurance, the Purchaser shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the maximum recovery under such insurance; provided that
the Purchaser shall nevertheless be entitled to bring a claim for indemnification under this
Article VII in respect of such Losses and the time limitations set forth in Section 7.4 hereof for
bringing a claim of indemnification under this Agreement shall be tolled during the pendency of
such insurance claim. The existence of a claim by the Purchaser for monies from an insurer or
against a third party in respect of any Loss shall not, however, delay any payment pursuant to the
indemnification provisions contained herein and otherwise determined to be due and owing by the
Representative. If the Purchaser has received the payment required by this Agreement from the
Representative in respect of any Loss and later receives proceeds from insurance or other amounts
in respect of such Loss, then it shall hold such proceeds or other amounts in trust for the benefit
of the Representative and shall pay to the Representative, as promptly as practicable after
receipt, a sum equal to the amount of such proceeds or other amount received, up to the aggregate
amount of any payments received from the Representative pursuant to this Agreement in respect of
such Loss. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, it is the intention of the
parties that no insurer or any other third party shall be (i) entitled to a benefit it would not be
entitled to receive in the absence of the foregoing indemnification provisions, or (ii) relieved of
the responsibility to pay any claims for which it is obligated.

53

 

     7.4 Limitations on Indemnification.

          (a) Survival; Time Limitation. The representations, warranties, covenants and
agreements in this Agreement or in any writing delivered by the Sellers or the Company to the
Purchaser in connection with this Agreement (including the certificate required to be delivered by
the Company pursuant to Section 6.3(a)) and the obligation of the Sellers to indemnify the
Purchaser Indemnitees pursuant to Section 7.1(a)(iv) shall survive the Closing until the expiration
of the Indemnity Escrow Period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the representations, warranties and
covenants of the Sellers and the Company in each of Section 1.10 (Certain Seller Matters), Section
2.1(a) (Organization), Section 2.2(b) (Subsidiaries), Section 2.3 (Capitalization) and Section 2.4
(Authority Relative to this Agreement) shall survive without limitation as to time and the
representations, warranties and covenants of the Sellers in each of Sections 2.14 (Title to
Property) and 2.15 (Taxes) shall survive the Closing until the sixtieth day following the
expiration of the applicable statute of limitations. The obligation of the Sellers to indemnify
the Purchaser Indemnitees pursuant to Section 7.1(a)(iv) shall be in lieu of any other obligation
of the Sellers to indemnify the Purchaser Indemnitees with respect to any representation or
warranty of the Sellers and the Company relating to workers’ compensation claims.

          (b) No claim for indemnification under this Article VII shall be brought after the end of the
relevant period specified in Section 7.4(a). Any claim made by a Purchaser Indemnitee that is
required to be made and is made prior to the expiration of the Indemnity Escrow Period shall be
preserved despite the subsequent expiration of the Indemnity Escrow Period and any such claim set
forth in a Notice of Claim sent prior to the expiration of the Indemnity Escrow Period shall
survive until final resolution thereof.

          (c) Deductible. No amount shall be payable under Article VII unless and until the
aggregate amount of all indemnifiable Losses otherwise payable exceeds $375,000 (the
“Deductible”), and then only to the extent such claims exceed the Deductible.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Losses resulting with respect to the representations, warranties and
covenants referred to in the next-to-last sentence of Section 7.4(a) (“Surviving Matters”)
and payments required to be made pursuant to Section 7.1(a)(iv) shall not be included in the
calculation of the Deductible and a Purchaser Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification with
respect to such Losses and payments as though there were no Deductible.

          (d) Aggregate Amount Limitation. Except with respect to Losses arising from the
Surviving Matters, the aggregate liability of the Sellers for Losses pursuant to Section 7.1 shall
not in any event exceed the Indemnity Escrow Funds and the Purchaser shall have no claim against
the Sellers other than for the Indemnity Escrow Funds. With respect to Losses arising from the
Surviving Matters, the aggregate liability of the Sellers pursuant to Section 7.1 shall not in any
event exceed the Purchase Price.

     7.5 Exclusive Remedy. The Purchaser, on behalf of itself and all other the Purchaser
Indemnitees, hereby acknowledges and agrees that, from and after the Closing, its sole remedy with
respect to any and all claims for money damages arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall
be pursuant and subject to the requirements of the indemnification provisions set forth in

54

 

this Article VII. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, nothing contained in this Article VII
shall in any way impair, modify or otherwise limit the Purchaser’s or the Company’s right to bring
any claim, demand or suit against the other party based upon such other party’s actual fraud or
intentional or willful misrepresentation or omission, it being understood that a mere breach of a
representation and warranty, without intentional or willful misrepresentation or omission, does not
constitute fraud.

     7.6 Adjustment to Purchase Price. Amounts paid for indemnification under Article VII
shall be deemed to be an adjustment to the Purchase Price, except as otherwise required by a Legal
Requirement.

     7.7 Representative Capacities; Application of Indemnity Escrow Funds. The parties
acknowledge that the Representative’s obligations under this Article VII are solely as a
representative of the Sellers in the manner set forth in the Escrow Agreement with respect to the
obligations to indemnify the Purchaser under this Article VII and that the Representative shall
have no personal responsibility for any expenses incurred by him in such capacity and that all
payments to the Purchaser as a result of such indemnification obligations shall be made solely
from, and to the extent of, the Indemnity Escrow Funds. Out-of-pocket expenses of the
Representative for attorneys’ fees and other costs shall be borne in the first instance by the
Purchaser, which may make a claim for reimbursement thereof against the Indemnity Escrow Funds upon
the claim with respect to which such expenses are incurred becoming an Established Claim (as
defined in the Escrow Agreement). The Escrow Agent, pursuant to the Escrow Agreement after the
Closing, may apply all or a portion of the Indemnity Escrow Funds to satisfy any claim for
indemnification pursuant to this Article VII. The Escrow Agent will hold the remaining portion of
the Indemnity Escrow Funds until final resolution of all claims for indemnification or disputes
relating thereto.

ARTICLE VIII

TERMINATION

     8.1 Termination. This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing:

          (a) by mutual written agreement of the Purchaser and the Representative at any time;

          (b) by either the Purchaser or the Representative if the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement shall not have been consummated by September 30, 2007 for any reason; provided, however,
that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 8.1(b) shall not be available to any
party whose action or failure to act has been a principal cause of or resulted in the failure of
such consummation to occur on or before such date and such action or failure to act constitutes a
breach of this Agreement;

          (c) by either the Purchaser or the Representative if a Governmental Entity shall have issued
an order, decree, judgment or ruling or taken any other action, in any case having the effect of permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the
transactions

55

 

contemplated by this Agreement, which order, decree, ruling or other action is final
and nonappealable;

          (d) by the Representative, upon a material breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or
agreement on the part of the Purchaser set forth in this Agreement, or if any representation or
warranty of the Purchaser shall have become untrue, in either case such that the conditions set
forth in Article VI would not be satisfied as of the time of such breach or as of the time such
representation or warranty shall have become untrue, provided, that if such breach by the Purchaser
is curable by the Purchaser prior to the Closing Date, then the Representative may not terminate
this Agreement under this Section 8.1(d) for thirty (30) days after delivery of written notice from
the Representative to the Purchaser of such breach, provided the Purchaser continues to exercise
commercially reasonable efforts to cure such breach (it being understood that the Representative
may not terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(d) if it shall have materially
breached this Agreement or if such breach by the Purchaser is cured during such thirty (30)-day
period);

          (e) by the Purchaser, upon a material breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or
agreement on the part of the Company or the Sellers set forth in this Agreement, or if any
representation or warranty of the Sellers or the Company shall have become untrue, in either case
such that the conditions set forth in Article VI would not be satisfied as of the time of such
breach or as of the time such representation or warranty shall have become untrue, provided, that
if such breach is curable by the Sellers or the Company prior to the Closing Date, then the
Purchaser may not terminate this Agreement under this Section 8.1(e) for thirty (30) days after
delivery of written notice from the Purchaser to the Representative of such breach, provided the
Sellers and the Company continue to exercise commercially reasonable efforts to cure such breach
(it being understood that the Purchaser may not terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section
8.1(e) if it shall have materially breached this Agreement or if such breach by the Sellers or the
Company is cured during such thirty (30)-day period);

          (f) by either the Purchaser or the Representative, if, at the Special Meeting (including any
adjournments thereof), this Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby shall fail to be
approved and adopted by the affirmative vote of the holders of Purchaser Stock required under the
Purchaser’s certificate of incorporation, or the holders of 20% or more of the number of shares of
Purchaser Stock issued in the Purchaser’s initial public offering and outstanding as of the date of
the record date of the Special Meeting exercise their rights to convert the shares of Purchaser
Stock held by them into cash in accordance with the Purchaser’s certificate of incorporation; or

          (g) by the Representative if (i) the Board of Directors of the Purchaser fails to include a
recommendation that the Purchaser stockholders approve the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement in the Proxy Statement or (ii) the Board of Directors of the Purchaser withdraws or
modifies, in any manner materially adverse to the Company and the Sellers, the Purchaser’s Board of
Directors recommendation that the Purchaser stockholders approve the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement.

56

 

     8.2 Notice of Termination; Effect of Termination. Any termination of this Agreement
under Section 8.1 above will be effective immediately upon (or, if the termination is pursuant to
Section 8.1(d) or Section 8.1(e) and the proviso therein is applicable, thirty (30) days after) the
delivery of written notice of the terminating party to the other parties hereto. In the event of
the termination of this Agreement as provided in Section 8.1, this Agreement shall be of no further
force or effect and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be abandoned, except for
and subject to the following: (i) Sections 5.6, 5.11, 8.2 and 8.3 and Article X (General
Provisions) shall survive the termination of this Agreement, and (ii) nothing herein shall relieve
any party from liability for any breach of this Agreement, including a breach by a party electing
to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(b) caused by the action or failure to act of
such party constituting a principal cause of or resulting in the failure of the Closing to occur on
or before the date stated therein.

     8.3 Fees and Expenses. All fees and expenses incurred in connection with this
Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by the party incurring such
expenses whether or not the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated.

          (a) “Material Adverse Effect” when used in connection with an entity means any change,
event, violation, inaccuracy, circumstance or effect, individually or when aggregated with other
changes, events, violations, inaccuracies, circumstances or effects, that is materially adverse to
the business, assets (including intangible assets), revenues, financial condition, prospects or

combination shall be deemed, in and of itself, to constitute a Material Adverse Effect: (i)
changes attributable to the public announcement or pendency of the transactions contemplated
hereby, or (ii) changes in general national or regional economic conditions;

          (b) “Legal Requirements” means any federal, state, local, municipal, foreign or other
law, statute, constitution, principle of common law, resolution, ordinance, code, edict, decree,

          (c) “Person” means any individual, corporation (including any non-profit corporation),

61

 

          (g) “Affiliate” means, as applied to any Person, any other Person directly or
indirectly controlling, controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with, such Person.
For purposes of this definition, “control” (including with correlative meanings, the terms

management and policies of such Person, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by

otherwise noted.

     10.3 Counterparts; Facsimile Signatures. This Agreement and each other document
executed in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, and the consummation thereof, may
be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same document
and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties
and delivered to the other party, it being understood that all parties need not sign the same
counterpart. Delivery by facsimile to counsel for the other party of a counterpart executed by a
party shall be deemed to meet the requirements of the previous sentence.

     10.4 Entire Agreement; Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement and the documents
and instruments and other agreements among the parties hereto as contemplated by or referred to
herein, including the Exhibits and Schedules hereto (a) constitute the entire agreement among the
parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and
understandings, both written and oral, among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof,
it being understood that the letter of intent between the Purchaser and the Company dated April 10,
2007 is hereby terminated in its entirety and shall be of no further force and effect (except to
the extent expressly stated to survive the execution of this Agreement and the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby); and (b) are not intended to confer upon any other person any
rights or remedies hereunder (except as specifically provided in this Agreement).

     10.5 Severability. In the event that any provision of this Agreement, or the
application thereof, becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal,
void or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement will continue in full force and effect and
the application of such provision to other persons or circumstances will be interpreted so as
reasonably to effect the intent of the parties hereto. The parties further agree to replace such
void or unenforceable provision of this Agreement with a valid and enforceable provision that will
achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such void or
unenforceable provision.

     10.6 Other Remedies; Specific Performance. Except as otherwise provided herein, any
and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a party will be deemed cumulative with and not
exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by law or equity upon such party, and the
exercise by a party of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy. The
parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions

62

 

of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were
otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to seek an
injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the
terms and provisions hereof in any court of the United States or any state having jurisdiction,
this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity.

     10.7 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance
with the law of the State of New York regardless of the law that might otherwise govern under
applicable principles of conflicts of law thereof.

     10.8 Rules of Construction. The parties hereto agree that they have been represented
by counsel during the negotiation and execution of this Agreement and, therefore, waive the
application of any law, regulation, holding or rule of construction providing that ambiguities in
an agreement or other document will be construed against the party drafting such agreement or
document.

     10.9 Assignment. No party may assign either this Agreement or any of its rights,
interests, or obligations hereunder without the prior written approval of the other parties, except
that the Purchaser may assign its rights hereunder to a wholly-owned subsidiary formed for such
purpose; provided that no such assignment by the Purchaser shall relieve the Purchaser of its
obligations and liabilities hereunder. Subject to the first sentence of this Section 10.9, this
Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their
respective successors and permitted assigns.

     10.10 Amendment. This Agreement may be amended by the parties hereto at any time by
execution of an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of the parties.

     10.11 Extension; Waiver. At any time prior to the Closing, any party hereto may, to
the extent legally allowed, (i) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or
other acts of the other parties hereto, (ii) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and
warranties made to such party contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto and
(iii) waive compliance with any of the agreements or conditions for the benefit of such party
contained herein. Any agreement on the part of a party hereto to any such extension or waiver
shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of such party. Delay
in exercising any right under this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of such right.

     10.12 Arbitration. Any disputes or claims arising under or in connection with this
Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereunder shall be resolved by binding arbitration.
Notice of a demand to arbitrate a dispute by either party shall be given in writing to the other at
their last known address. Arbitration shall be commenced by the filing by a party of an
arbitration demand with the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in its office in
Wilmington, Delaware. The arbitration and resolution of the dispute shall be resolved by a single
arbitrator appointed by the AAA pursuant to AAA rules. The arbitration shall in all respects be
governed and conducted by applicable AAA rules, and any award and/or decision shall be conclusive
and binding on the parties. The arbitration shall be conducted in
Wilmington, Delaware. The arbitrator shall supply a written opinion supporting any award, and

63

 

judgment may be entered on the award in any court of competent jurisdiction. Each party shall pay
its own fees and expenses for the arbitration, except that any costs and charges imposed by the AAA
and any fees of the arbitrator for his services shall be assessed against the losing party by the
arbitrator. In the event that preliminary or permanent injunctive relief is necessary or desirable
in order to prevent a party from acting contrary to this Agreement or to prevent irreparable harm
prior to a confirmation of an arbitration award, then either party is authorized and entitled to
commence a lawsuit solely to obtain equitable relief against the other pending the completion of
the arbitration in a court having jurisdiction over the parties. Each party hereby consents to the
exclusive jurisdiction of the federal and state courts located in the State of New York, New York
County, for such purpose. All rights and remedies of the parties shall be cumulative and in
addition to any other rights and remedies obtainable from arbitration.
