(or any of its designated affiliates, “BofA Securities”), PNC Bank, National Association (“PNC”) and PNC Capital Markets LLC (“PNC Capital Markets”) that you intend to acquire (the “Target Acquisition”), through a merger transaction directly and/or with one or more of your direct or indirect wholly-owned Subsidiaries (“Merger Sub”), all of the outstanding capital stock of Geospatial Holdings Inc. (the “Target”), from the Sellers (as defined in the Target Acquisition Agreement (as defined in Exhibit C to this letter agreement)), pursuant to the Target Acquisition Agreement. 
In connection with the foregoing, you have also advised Bank of America, BofA Securities, PNC and PNC Capital Markets (collectively, the “Commitment Parties”) that you desire to:
		
	(a)
	finance the payment of the cash consideration for the Target Acquisition, repay existing bank facility indebtedness of the Target and its subsidiaries, and pay fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Transaction (defined below) using proceeds from (i) a Term Facility incurred under the Amended Credit Agreement (defined below) in the principal amount of $150 million (the “Term Facility”), which Term Facility shall be have pricing, tenor, amortization and such other terms and conditions as set forth in Exhibit A, and (ii) up to $150 million of Loans under the Revolving Facility under the Amended Credit Agreement (such amount, the “Acquisition Revolver Draw” and together with the Term Facility, the “Acquisition Funds”), which Revolving Facility will be increased under Section 2.16 of the Amended Credit Agreement by an aggregate principal amount of $90 million (the “Revolving Facility Increase” and together with the Term Facility, the “Incremental Facilities”) so that the maximum aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Facility under the Amended Credit Agreement shall be $215 million; and

	(b)
	effect an amendment (the “Proposed Amendment”) to the Existing Credit Agreement (as amended by the Proposed Amendment, the “Amended Credit Agreement”), which shall be effective on the Effective Date (defined below), that contains modifications to the Existing Credit Agreement as set forth in Exhibit B;

The revolving credit and term loan facilities under the Amended Credit Agreement (including the Incremental Facilities) are referred to herein as the “Amended Credit Facilities”.  The Target Acquisition, entering into the Proposed Amendment, the documentation and funding of the Incremental Facilities, the repayment of existing third party bank indebtedness of the Target and its subsidiaries, the payment of fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Target Acquisition and the Amended Credit Facilities, and all related transactions, are referred to collectively herein as the “Transaction”. This letter and the exhibits hereto are collectively referred to as the “Commitment Letter”.

(a)      Bank of America is pleased to provide its commitment to provide 56.1% of the principal amount of the Incremental Facilities and PNC is pleased to provide its commitment to fund 43.9% of the principal amount of the Incremental Facilities (in each case, on a pro rata basis between the Term Facility and the Revolving Facility Increase);

Notwithstanding anything in this Commitment Letter, the Fee Letter (as defined below) or the definitive documentation for the Amended Credit Facilities to the contrary, (a) the only representations and warranties the accuracy of which shall be a condition to the funding of the Acquisition Funds on the Effective Date shall be the Specified Representations (as defined below) and the Target Acquisition Agreement Representations (as defined in Exhibit C), and (b) the terms of the definitive documentation for the Amended Credit Facilities shall be in a form such that they do not impair the availability or funding of the Acquisition Funds on the Effective Date if the conditions set forth in Exhibit C are satisfied (it being understood that, to the extent any collateral (including the grant or perfection of any security interest) is not or cannot be provided and/or perfected on the Effective Date (other than the grant and perfection of security interests in assets with respect to which a lien may be perfected solely by the filing of a financing statement (other than as a “fixture filing”) under the Uniform Commercial Code (“UCC”), then the provision and perfection of such collateral shall not constitute a condition precedent to the availability and initial funding of the Acquisition Funds on the Effective Date, but may instead be provided within a time period to be agreed by the Administrative Agent pursuant to arrangements to be mutually agreed by the Administrative Agent and you.  For purposes hereof, “Specified Representations” means the representations and warranties to be made by the Company and the Guarantors in the definitive documentation for the Amended Credit Facilities relating to (a) corporate or other organizational existence of the Company and the Guarantors, (b) organizational power and authority of the Company and the Guarantors to enter into and perform the definitive documentation for the Amended Credit Facilities, (c) due authorization, execution and delivery by the Company and the Guarantors of, and enforceability against the Company and the Guarantors of, the definitive documentation for the Amended Credit Facilities, (d) creation, validity and perfection of first priority (subject to permitted liens) liens under the security documents (subject, without limitation, to the limitations and exceptions set forth in the preceding sentence), (e) no conflicts of the definitive documentation for the Amended Credit Facilities with, or consents required under, the organizational documents of the Company and the Guarantors, material laws applicable to the Company or any of the Guarantors or material agreements (other than consents that have been obtained), (f) use of proceeds not violating margin regulations, (g) not violating anti-corruption laws, sanctions and the PATRIOT Act, (h) Investment Company Act, (i) absence of litigation with respect to the Amended Credit Facilities, (j) accuracy of financial statements in all material respects and (k) solvency as of the Effective Date (after giving effect to the Transaction) of the Company and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis.  This paragraph is referred to herein as the “Limited Conditionality Provision”.
3.    Syndication.  The Lead Arrangers intend to commence syndication of the Amended Credit Facilities promptly upon your acceptance of this Commitment Letter and the Fee Letter.  You agree to actively assist the Lead Arrangers in achieving a syndication of the Amended Credit Facilities that is satisfactory to the Lead Arrangers.  Such assistance shall include your (a) providing and causing your advisors to provide (and using your commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Target and its advisors to provide) the Commitment Parties and the other Lenders upon request with all information reasonably deemed necessary by the Commitment Parties to complete syndication, including, but not limited to, information and evaluations prepared by you, the Target and your or its advisors, or on your or its behalf, relating to the transactions contemplated hereby (including the Projections (as hereinafter defined), the “Information”), (b) assisting in the preparation of materials to be used in connection with the syndication of the Amended Credit Facilities (collectively, the “Information Materials”), (c) using your commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the syndication efforts of the Lead Arrangers benefit materially from your existing banking relationships and (d) otherwise reasonably assisting the Commitment Parties in their syndication efforts, including by making your officers and advisors available (and your using commercially reasonable efforts to make the officers and advisors of the Target available) from time to time to attend and make presentations regarding the business and prospects of the Company and its subsidiaries, the Target and its subsidiaries and the Transaction, as appropriate, at one or more meetings of prospective Lenders.  You hereby agree that, following the Effective Date and at our own expense, we may place advertisements in financial and other newspapers 

3
122724333_8

and periodicals, and circulate similar promotional materials, in the form of a “tombstone” or otherwise, containing information customarily included in such advertisements and materials, including (i) the name of the Company and its subsidiaries, (ii) our and our affiliates’ titles and roles in connection with the Amended Credit Facilities, and (iii) the amount, type and closing date of the Amended Credit Facilities.  You also authorize each of the Lead Arrangers and its affiliates to download copies of the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ logos from its website, use copies thereof in SyndTrak or similar workspaces established by BofA Securities in connection with the syndication of the Amended Credit Facilities and use such logos on any confidential information memoranda, presentations and other marketing materials prepared in connection with the syndication of the Amended Credit Facilities.
It is understood and agreed that the Lead Arrangers will manage and control all aspects of the syndication in consultation with you, including decisions as to the selection of prospective Lenders and any titles offered to proposed Lenders, when commitments will be accepted and the final allocations of the commitments among the Lenders (it being understood that the syndication of the Incremental Facilities shall be allocated 56.1% to reduce the commitment of Bank of America and 43.9% to reduce the commitment of PNC until a Successful Syndication (as defined in the Fee Letter) has occurred).  It is understood that no Lender participating in the Incremental Facilities will receive compensation from you in order to obtain its commitment, except on the terms contained herein and in the Fee Letter.  It is also understood and agreed that the amount and distribution of the fees among the Lenders will be at the sole and absolute discretion of the Lead Arrangers.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Commitment Letter to the contrary or any syndication, assignment or other transfer of Bank of America’s or PNC’s commitments in respect of the Incremental  Facilities herein, neither Bank of America nor PNC shall be relieved, released or novated from its obligations hereunder (including its obligation to fund its commitment to the Incremental Facilities on the Effective Date) as a result of such syndication, assignment or other transfer until after the funding of the Incremental Facilities (or any portion thereof) on the Effective Date.
Without limiting your obligations to assist with syndication efforts as set forth herein, it is understood that our commitments with respect to the Incremental Facilities are not conditioned upon the syndication of, or receipt of commitments in respect of, the Incremental Facilities and in no event shall the commencement or successful completion of syndication of the Incremental Facilities nor the obligation to assist with syndication efforts as set forth herein (including, without limitation, any of your agreements in this paragraph or the following paragraph), constitute a condition to the commitment hereunder to fund the Incremental Facilities on the Effective Date.
4.    Information Requirements.  You represent, warrant and covenant (subject, however, to the best of your knowledge with respect to Information relating to the Target) that (a) all financial projections concerning the Company and its subsidiaries and the Target and its subsidiaries that have been or are hereafter made available to any of the Commitment Parties or the Lenders by you, the Target or any of your or its representatives (or on your or its behalf) (the “Projections”) have been or will be prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed by you to be reasonable at the time furnished (it being understood that such Projections are as to future events and are not to be viewed as facts, that actual results during the period or periods covered by any such Projections may differ significantly from the projected results and that such differences may be material, that such Projections are subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies many of which are beyond your control, and that no assurance can be given that the projected results will be realized) and (b) all Information, other than Projections, which has been or is hereafter made available to any of the Commitment Parties or the Lenders by you, the Target or any of your or its representatives (or on your or its behalf) in connection with any aspect of the Transaction, as and when furnished, is and will 

4
122724333_8

be complete and correct in all material respects and does not and will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained therein not misleading.  You agree to furnish us with further and supplemental information from time to time until the effectiveness of the Proposed Amendment and funding of the Incremental Facilities (the “Effective Date”) and, if requested by BofA Securities or PNC, for such period thereafter as is necessary to achieve a Successful Syndication (as defined in the Fee Letter) so that such representation and warranty is correct on the Effective Date and on such later date on which a Successful Syndication occurs as if the Information were being furnished, and such representation and warranty were being made, on such date.  In issuing this commitment and in arranging and syndicating the Amended Credit Facilities, the Commitment Parties are and will be using and relying on the Information without independent verification thereof.
You acknowledge that the Commitment Parties on your behalf will make available Information Materials to the proposed syndicate of Lenders by posting the Information Materials on SyndTrak or another similar electronic system.  In connection with the syndication of the Amended Credit Facilities, unless the parties hereto otherwise agree in writing, you shall be under no obligation to provide Information Materials suitable for distribution to any prospective Lender (each, a “Public Lender”) that has personnel who do not wish to receive material non-public information (within the meaning of the United States federal securities laws, “MNPI”) with respect to the Company or its affiliates, the Target and its affiliates or the respective securities of any of the foregoing.  You agree, however, that the definitive documentation for the Amended Credit Facilities will contain provisions concerning Information Materials to be provided to Public Lenders and the absence of MNPI therefrom.  Prior to distribution of Information Materials to prospective Lenders, you shall provide us with a customary letter authorizing the dissemination thereof.  In any event, the Commitment Parties shall not disclose to any prospective Lender any Information Materials which are confidential unless such prospective Lender has agreed (whether by execution and delivery of a confidentiality agreement or by agreement to terms and conditions required to access information via electronic means) to keep such information confidential on terms which are customary in the syndication market for transactions of the nature described herein.
5.    Confidentiality.  Each of the Commitment Parties and their respective affiliates will use all confidential information provided to them or such affiliates by or on behalf of you hereunder (including, without limitation, the Projections, the information contained in the Information Materials and any other Information provided by you that is not identified or marked clearly by you as “PUBLIC”) solely for the purpose of providing the services which are the subject of this Commitment Letter in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and shall treat confidentially all such information; provided that nothing herein shall prevent the Commitment Parties from disclosing any such information (a) pursuant to the order of any court or administrative agency or in any pending legal or administrative proceeding, or otherwise as required by applicable law or compulsory legal process (in which case the applicable Commitment Party, to the extent permitted by law, will use commercially reasonable efforts to notify you prior to any such disclosure to the extent not prohibited by law, rule or regulation and shall comply with any applicable protective order (or equivalent) obtained by you or on your behalf and, in the event no such order (or equivalent) is obtained, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to disclose only such of the confidential information as they are advised by counsel is necessary to comply with applicable law, regulation or court or administrative agency order), (b) upon the request or demand of any regulatory authority having jurisdiction over any of the Commitment Parties or any of their respective affiliates, (c) to the extent that such information becomes publicly available other than by reason of disclosure by any of the Commitment Parties or any of their respective affiliates or Representatives (as defined below) in contravention of this paragraph, (d) to the extent that such information is received by any of the Commitment Parties from a third party that is not to its knowledge subject to confidentiality obligations to you, (e) to the extent that such information is independently developed by any of the Commitment Parties, (f) to any of the Commitment Parties respective 

5
122724333_8

You acknowledge that we may receive a benefit, including without limitation, a discount, credit or other accommodation, from any of such counsel based on the fees such counsel may receive on account of their relationship with us including, without limitation, fees paid pursuant hereto.
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless each of the Commitment Parties, each Lender and each of their affiliates and their respective partners, officers, directors, employees, agents, trustees, administrators, managers, advisors and other representatives (each, an “Indemnified Party”) from and against (and will reimburse each Indemnified Party as the same are incurred for) any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel) that may be incurred by or asserted or awarded against any Indemnified Party, in each case arising out of or in connection with or by reason of (including, without limitation, in connection with any investigation, litigation or proceeding or preparation of a defense in connection therewith) (a) any matters contemplated by this Commitment Letter or any related transaction or (b) the Amended Credit Facilities or any other similar or replacement financings in which the Commitment Parties or any of their Affiliates are involved or any use made or proposed to be made with the proceeds thereof, except to the extent such claim, damage, loss, liability or expense is found in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Indemnified Party’s gross negligence, willful misconduct or breach in bad faith by such Indemnified Party of its obligations under this Commitment Letter.  In the case of an investigation, litigation or proceeding to which the indemnity in this paragraph applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by you, your equity-holders or creditors or an Indemnified Party, whether or not an Indemnified Party is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated.  You also agree that no Indemnified Party shall have any liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract or tort or otherwise) to you or your subsidiaries or affiliates or to your or their respective equity holders or creditors arising out of, related to or in connection with any aspect of the transactions contemplated hereby, except to the extent of direct, as opposed to special, indirect, consequential or punitive, damages determined in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Indemnified Party’s gross negligence, willful misconduct or breach in bad faith by such Indemnified Party of its obligations under this Commitment Letter.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Commitment Letter, no Indemnified Party shall be liable for any damages arising 

6
122724333_8

from the use by others of information or other materials obtained through electronic telecommunications or other information transmission systems, other than for direct or actual damages resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party as determined by a final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Indemnified Party shall be obligated to refund and return any and all amounts paid by you under this paragraph to such Indemnified Party for any such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses to the extent it has been determined by a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction that such Indemnified Person is not entitled to payment of such amounts in accordance with the terms hereof.  
This Commitment Letter, the fee letter among you and the Commitment Parties of even date herewith (the “Fee Letter”), and the contents hereof and thereof are confidential and, except for disclosure hereof or thereof (i) on a confidential basis to your accountants, attorneys and other professional advisors retained by you in connection with the Amended Credit Facilities, (ii) on a confidential basis to the Sellers and their advisors (provided that fee percentages and amounts and economic terms of the market flex provisions in the Fee Letter are redacted to the reasonable satisfaction of BofA Securities and/or the Administrative Agent, as applicable), (iii) of this Commitment Letter and the existence and contents hereof (but not the Fee Letter or the contents thereof, other than the aggregate fee amount contained in the Fee Letter as part of the Projections, pro forma information, or a generic disclosure of aggregate sources and uses related to fee amounts in connection with the Transaction to the extent such disclosure would be customary or required in offering and marketing materials for the Amended Credit Facilities (and only to the extent aggregated with all other fees and expenses in connection with the Transaction and not presented as an individual line item unless required by applicable law, rule or regulation)) in any syndication or other marketing material in connection with the Amended Credit Facilities, or (iv) in any judicial proceeding in connection with the enforcement of your rights hereunder or under the Fee Letter, may not be disclosed by you in whole or in part to any person or entity without our prior written consent; provided, however, it is understood and agreed that you may disclose (x) this Commitment Letter but not the Fee Letter after your acceptance of this Commitment Letter and the Fee Letter, in filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and other applicable regulatory authorities and stock exchanges and (y) the aggregate amount of the fees or other payments in the Fee Letter (provided, that, the fee percentages and amounts (other than aggregate amounts) and economic terms of the market flex provisions in the Fee Letter are redacted to the reasonable satisfaction of BofA Securities and/or Administrative Agent, as applicable) may be disclosed in public filings, included in projections and pro forma information, in disclosure of aggregate sources and uses and similar generic disclosures.

L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001) (the “Act”), each of them is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies you and each guarantor under the Amended Credit Facility, which information includes your and their name and address and other information that will allow the Commitment Parties to identify you and each such guarantor in accordance with the Act.  As a condition to entering into the Proposed Amendment, the Company must provide all requested KYC/AML information (including, without limitation, Beneficial Ownership Certifications) satisfactory to the Commitment Parties and each Lender.

The undersigned Chief Financial Officer of the Company is familiar with the properties, businesses, assets and liabilities of the Loan Parties and is duly authorized to execute this certificate on behalf of the Company and the other Loan Parties.
The undersigned certifies that [he/she] has made such investigation and inquiries as to the financial condition of the Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries as the undersigned deems necessary and prudent for the purpose of providing this Solvency Certificate (this “Certificate”).  The undersigned acknowledges that the Administrative Agent and the Lenders are relying on the truth and accuracy of this Certificate in connection with the making of Credit Extensions and the other transactions contemplated under the Credit Agreement on the date hereof.
The undersigned certifies that the financial information, projections and assumptions which underlie and form the basis for the representations made in this Certificate were reasonable when made and were made in good faith and continue to be reasonable as of the date hereof.
BASED ON THE FOREGOING, the undersigned certifies on behalf of the Company that, both before and after giving effect to the consummation of the Target Acquisition (including the consummation of the Target Acquisition Agreement and the extensions of credit to be made under the Credit Agreement, the making of the Loans and the use of proceeds of such Loans on the date hereof):
(a)    The fair value of the property of the Company, together with its Subsidiaries on a Consolidated basis, is greater than the total amount of liabilities, including contingent liabilities, of the Company together with its Subsidiaries on a Consolidated basis.
(b)    The present fair salable value of the assets of the Company, together with its Subsidiaries on a Consolidated basis, is not less than the amount that will be required to pay the probable liability of the Company, together with its Subsidiaries on a Consolidated basis, on its debts as they become absolute and matured.
(c)    The Company, together with its Subsidiaries on a Consolidated basis, does not intend to, and does not believe that it will, incur debts or liabilities beyond such Person’s individual or consolidated ability to pay such debts and liabilities as they mature.
(d)    The Company is not engaged in business or a transaction, and the Company is not about to engage in business or a transaction, for which the Company’s property would constitute an unreasonably small capital.
(e)    The Company, together with its Subsidiaries on a Consolidated basis, is able to pay its individual and consolidated debts and liabilities, contingent obligations and other commitments as they mature in the ordinary course of business.
(f)    The amount of contingent liabilities at any time have been computed as the amount that, in the light of all the facts and circumstances existing at such time, represents the amount that can reasonably be expected to become an actual or matured liability.
Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Certificate by fax transmission or other electronic mail transmission (e.g. “pdf” or “tif”) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Certificate.
