For purposes of this Agreement, the Proposed Statement of Closing Net Working Capital shall be prepared based on the books and records of the Company shall be based on the Current Assets and the Current Liabilities transferred to the Asset Buyer and, for the avoidance of doubt, shall include only the Current Assets and the Current Liabilities of the Company (and not ADSI).

(e)           If Sellers Representative and Buyer are unable to resolve the matter or matters in disagreement within thirty (30) days following Buyer’s receipt of written notice from Sellers Representative of disagreement with the accuracy of the amount of the Closing Net Working Capital contained in the Proposed Statement of Closing Net Working Capital, then such disagreement or disagreements (and only such disagreement or disagreements) shall be referred for resolution to a nationally recognized firm of independent certified public accountants that is mutually agreeable to Buyer and Sellers Representative (the “Independent Accountants”).

Buyer and Sellers Representative shall instruct the Independent Accountants not to, and the Independent Accountants shall not, assign a value to any item in dispute greater than the greatest value for such item assigned by Buyer, on the one hand, or Sellers Representative, on the other hand, or less than the smallest value for such item assigned by Buyer, on the one hand, or Sellers Representative, on the other hand. Buyer and Sellers Representative shall also instruct the Independent Accountants to, and the Independent Accountants shall, make its determination based solely on presentations by Buyer and Sellers Representative that are in accordance with this Agreement (i.e., not on the basis of an independent review). The amount of the Closing Net Working Capital as determined by the Independent Accountants shall be final and binding upon the parties and any amounts required to be paid by Section 3.05 hereof shall be paid or adjusted (as hereinafter provided) as provided in Section 3.05 by Sellers or Buyer, as the case may be.

(f)           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.03 during the period that the determination of the Closing Net Working Capital shall remain in dispute, neither party shall be required to pay to the other party the amount that would otherwise be payable under this Section 3.03 and Section 3.04 if no such disagreement were to exist.

The costs and expenses of the Independent Accountants shall be allocated between Buyer and Seller based upon the percentage of the portion of the contested amount not awarded to Buyer or Seller bears to the amount actually contested by such party. For example, if Seller claims the Closing Net Working Capital is $1,000 greater than the amount claimed by Buyer, and Buyer contests only $500 of the amount claimed by Seller, and if the Independent Accountants ultimately resolves the dispute by awarding Seller $300 of the $500 contested, then the costs and expenses of the Independent Accountants will be allocated 60% (i.e., 300 ÷ 500) to Buyer and 40% (i.e., 200 ÷ 500) to Seller.

3.04                 Calculation of Final Cash Purchase Price.

(b)           if the amount of the Closing Net Working Capital is less than the amount of the Established Net Working Capital, then the Final Cash Purchase Price shall be equal to the Initial Aggregate Cash Purchase Price minus the amount by which the amount of the Closing Net Working Capital is less than the amount of the Established Net Working Capital.

3.05                 Post-Closing Adjustment.

If the Final Cash Purchase Price as determined pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.04 above exceeds the Initial Aggregate Cash Purchase Price, the amount by which the Final Cash Purchase Price exceeds the Initial Aggregate Cash Purchase Price shall be paid by Buyer within ten (10) days following the determination of such amount, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account or accounts as may be specified by the Sellers Representative in writing. If the Final Cash Purchase Price as determined pursuant to Section 3.04 above is less than the Initial Aggregate Cash Purchase Price, the Shareholders shall, jointly and severally, be obligated to pay to the Buyer, no later than five (5) Business Days following the determination of the Final Cash Purchase Price and in one lump sum payment by certified check(s) or wire transfer of immediately available funds the amount by which the Initial Aggregate Cash Purchase Price exceeds the Final Cash Purchase Price.

3.06                 Allocation of Purchase Price . Prior to the Closing, Buyer and Sellers shall prepare an example of an allocation of the Initial Aggregate Cash Purchase Price to and among the Assets and the Shares based on the Balance Sheets (the “Preliminary Allocation”). Within sixty (60) days after the Final Purchase Price is determined pursuant to Section 3.04, Buyer shall provide Sellers Representative with an allocation of the Final Purchase Price to and among the Assets and the Shares for all purposes (including Tax and financial accounting) (the “Purchase Price Allocation”). The Purchase Price Allocation shall be based on the same principals and methodologies employed in preparing the Preliminary Allocation based on the Closing Statement of Net Working Capital and the Final Cash Purchase Price. Buyer shall permit Sellers Representative to review and comment on the Purchase Price Allocation and shall consider such revisions as are reasonably requested by Sellers Representative provided, however, Buyer shall not be required to make any such revisions which Buyer reasonably believes are unnecessary or unwarranted.

The Purchase Price Allocation shall be revised to appropriately take into account any adjustments made pursuant Section 3.05 to this Agreement, and Buyer shall deliver to Sellers Representative an amended Purchase Price Allocation reflecting any such revisions. Buyer shall permit Sellers Representative to review and comment on the amended Purchase Price Allocation and shall consider such revisions as are reasonably requested by Sellers Representative, provided, however, Buyer shall not be required to make any such revisions provided, however, Buyer shall not be required to make any such revisions which Buyer reasonably believes are unnecessary or unwarranted. Buyer and Sellers agree that they shall file their federal, state and local income tax returns (including amended returns and claims for refund) and information reports in a manner consistent with the amended Purchase Price Allocation, unless otherwise required pursuant to a determination (as defined in Section 1313(a) of the Code).

For purposes of this Agreement, Claims described in Sections 10.02(a)(i) through (iv) and Claims described in Sections 10.03(a)(i) through (iii) are hereinafter individually referred to as an “Indemnification Claim” and collectively as “Indemnification Claims”.

(b)            With respect to Losses incurred by any Buyer Indemnified Party arising from any Indemnification Claim or Indemnification Claims described in Sections 10.02(a)(i), (ii) or (iii), the Sellers shall be obligated, jointly and severally, to indemnify each Buyer Indemnified Party from and against the full amount of all Losses arising in connection with such Indemnification Claims, without regard to when such Losses may be incurred and notwithstanding the fact that the facts and circumstances forming the basis for such Indemnification Claim might entitle such Buyer Indemnified Party to make an Indemnification claim against any Seller for a breach or inaccuracy of any of the representations and warranties made by any Seller or ADSI pursuant to this Agreement.

(c)            With respect to Losses which are incurred by any Buyer Indemnified Party and arise from any Indemnification Claim or Indemnification Claims described in Section 10.02(a)(iv) hereof which (i) are not also Indemnification Claims under the provisions of Section 10.02(a)(i), (ii) or (iii) (such Indemnification Claims being hereinafter individually a “Breach of Seller Rep Claim” and collectively “Breach of Seller Rep Claims”), and (ii) are based upon a breach or inaccuracy of any Fundamental Representations of Sellers, the Sellers shall be obligated, jointly and severally, to indemnify the Buyer Indemnified Parties from and against the full amount of the Losses incurred by the Buyer Indemnified Parties.

In addition, with respect to Losses incurred by any Buyer Indemnified Parties as a result of any Breach of Seller Rep Claims which are not based on any Fundamental Representations of Sellers or ADSI, the Sellers shall have no liability or obligation to indemnify and hold each Buyer Indemnified Party harmless from any Losses incurred by such Persons except to the extent that the aggregate amount of the Losses incurred by such Persons with respect to all such Indemnification Claims exceeds Seventy Five Thousand United States Dollars ($75,000.00) (such amount being hereinafter the “Basket Amount”) provided that, after the aggregate amount of all such Losses exceeds the Basket Amount, each Buyer Indemnified Party shall be entitled to be indemnified for the full amount of all such Losses. Finally, with respect to Losses incurred by any Buyer Indemnified Parties as a result of any Breach of Seller Rep Claims which are not based upon any Fundamental Representations, the Sellers shall have no liability or obligation to indemnify and hold each Buyer Indemnified Party harmless from any Losses incurred by such Person to the extent that the aggregate amount of the Losses arising with respect to any such Indemnification Claims, exceeds three Million Dollars ($3,000,000.00) (such amount being hereinafter the “Cap”).

(e)            The Buyer shall first recover the amount of the Losses incurred by the Buyer as a result of any Indemnification Claims by reducing the amount of any interest payable to the Company under the terms of the Promissory Note for the period during which interest only is payable under the terms of the Promissory Note and, to the extent that the Losses incurred by the Buyer as a result of all Indemnification Claims and the amounts, if any, offset against interest payable under the terms of the Promissory Note pursuant to the preceding provisions of this Section 10.02(e) exceed the amount of any interest which is payable under the Promissory Note for the period during which interest only is payable under the terms of the Promissory Note, the Buyer shall have the right, at the Buyer’s election, to recover the amount of such excess, by reducing the quarterly principal and/or interest payments due and payable under the Promissory Note in the order in which they become due and payable under the terms of the Promissory Note. If and to the extent that the amount of the Losses which have been incurred by the Buyer as a result of any Indemnification Claims exceed the amounts payable by the Buyer under the terms of the Promissory Note (as determined at the time that an Indemnification Claim is made, taking into consideration any reductions in the amount of such payments resulting from prior Losses which the Buyer has recovered through a reduction of payments due under the Promissory Note), the Sellers shall be jointly and severally obligated to pay to the Buyer the amount of any Losses which have been incurred by the Buyer Indemnified Parties which have not been recovered through a reduction of payments due under the terms of the Promissory Note.

(c)            With respect to Losses which are incurred by any Seller Indemnified Party and arise from any Indemnification Claim or Indemnification Claims described in Section 10.03(a)(iv) hereof which (i) are not also Indemnification Claims under the provisions of Section 10.03(a)(i), (ii), or (iii) (such Indemnification Claims being hereinafter individually a “Breach of Buyer Rep Claim” and collectively, “Breach of Buyer Rep Claims”), and (ii) are based upon a breach of any Fundamental Representations of Buyer, the Asset Buyer shall be obligated to indemnify the Seller Indemnified Parties from and against the full amount of the Losses incurred by the Seller Indemnified Parties.

(d)            With respect to Losses incurred by any Seller Indemnified Parties as a result of any Breach of Buyer Rep Claims which are not based upon any Fundamental Representations of the Buyer, the Buyer shall have no liability or obligation to indemnify and hold each Seller Indemnified Party harmless from any Losses incurred by such Person unless written notice of an Indemnification Claim is delivered by the Sellers to the Asset Buyer prior to the expiration of the Survival Period with respect to the representation and warranty which forms the basis of any such Breach of Buyer Rep Claims.

Finally with respect to Losses incurred by any Seller Indemnified Parties as a result of any Breach of Buyer Rep Claims which are not based upon any Fundamental Representations of the Buyer, the Buyer shall have no liability or obligation to indemnify and hold each Seller Indemnified Party harmless from any Losses incurred by such Person to the extent that the aggregate amount of the Losses arising with respect to any such Indemnification Claims, exceeds the Cap.

10.04                Procedures for Indemnification.

(a)            If any Buyer Indemnified Party or any Seller Indemnified Party (hereinafter an “Indemnified Party”) shall Claim to have suffered any Losses (other than with respect to any Claim asserted, demand or other Action by any Person who is not a party to this Agreement (hereinafter a “Third-Party Claim”)) for which indemnification is available under Section 10.02 or 10.03, as the case may be, the Indemnified Party shall notify the party required to provide indemnification (hereinafter an “Indemnifying Party”) in writing of such Claim. Any written notice provided by an Indemnified Party to an Indemnifying Party of a Claim for which indemnification is available hereunder shall be given promptly after the Indemnified Party becomes aware of the Claim, shall describe the nature of such Claim, the facts and circumstances that give rise to such Claim and the amount of the Losses attributable to such Claim if reasonably ascertainable at the time such Claim is made (or if not then reasonably ascertainable, the maximum amount of such Claim reasonably estimated by the Indemnified Party). In the event that within thirty (30) days after the receipt by the Indemnifying Party of such a written notice from the Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party shall not have been given notice by the Indemnifying Party of a written objection to such Indemnification Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall conclusively be deemed to have agreed that it is liable to indemnify the Indemnified party for the full amount of all Losses arising with respect to the Claim described in the written notice which is delivered to the Indemnifying Party with respect to any such Indemnification Claim, including the amount of the Losses specified by the Indemnified Party in the written notice of the Indemnification Claim which is delivered to the Indemnifying Party. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 10.02 or Section 10.03 hereof, an Indemnifying Party shall have no obligation to indemnify an Indemnified Party with respect to a Breach of Seller Rep Claim or a Breach of Buyer Rep Claim unless the written notice required to be delivered by the Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section 10.04(a) is delivered prior to the expiration of the applicable Survival Period provided for in Section 10.01 hereof for the representation and warranty giving rise to the Breach of Seller Rep Claim or the Breach of Buyer Rep Claim.

(b)            If within the thirty (30) day period described in Section 10.04(a) above, the Indemnified Party shall have been given notice by the Indemnifying Party setting forth the Indemnifying Party’s objections to such Indemnification Claim and the Indemnifying Party’s reasons for such objection, then the parties shall negotiate in good faith for a period of ten (10) Business Days from the date the Indemnified Party receives such objection. After such ten (10) Business Day period (or such longer period as they may agree in writing), if the parties still cannot agree on the Indemnification Claim, the Indemnified Party may, at any time thereafter, until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations with respect to its Indemnification Claim, commence legal proceedings against the Indemnifying Party to enforce its rights to indemnification from and against any Losses described in the written notice described in Section 10.04(a) above.

10.05                Procedures for Third-Party Claims.

(a)            Any Indemnified Party seeking indemnification pursuant to this Article 10 in respect of any Third-Party Claim shall give the Indemnifying Party from whom indemnification with respect to such Indemnification Claim is sought: (i) prompt written notice (but in no event more than fifteen (15) days after the Indemnified Party acquires knowledge thereof) of such Third-Party Claim; and (ii) copies of all documents and information relating to any such Third-Party Claim within ten (10) days of their being obtained by the Indemnified Party; provided, that the failure by the Indemnified Party to so notify or provide copies to the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability to the Indemnified Party for any liability hereunder except to the extent that such failure shall have materially and irreparably prejudiced the defense of such Third-Party Claim.

(b)            The Indemnifying Party shall have twenty (20) days (or such lesser time as may be necessary to comply with statutory response requirements for litigated Claims that are included in any Third-Party Claim) from receipt of the notice contemplated in this Section 10.05 to notify the Indemnified Party whether or not the Indemnifying Party will, at its sole cost and expense, defend the Indemnified Party against such Third-Party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party timely gives notice that it intends to defend the Third-Party Claim, it shall have the right, except as hereafter provided, to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with the Third-Party Claim and to be represented by counsel of its own choice, and the Indemnified Party will not admit any liability with respect thereto or settle, compromise, pay or discharge the same without the consent of the Indemnifying Party; provided, that the Indemnified Party may participate in any proceeding with counsel of its choice and at its expense; and provided further, that the Indemnifying Party may not enter into a settlement of any such Third-Party Claim without (i) obtaining the consent of the Indemnified Party, which consent shall be not unreasonably withheld, unless such settlement requires no more than a monetary payment for which the Indemnified Party is fully indemnified by the Indemnifying Party or involves other matters not binding upon the Indemnified Party and (ii) obtaining a full release of the Indemnified Party from the Third-Party Claim. In the event the Indemnifying Party does not agree in writing to accept the defense of, and assume all responsibility for, such Third-Party Claim as provided above in this Section 10.05, then the Indemnified Party shall have the right to defend against, negotiate or otherwise deal with the Third-Party Claim in such manner as the Indemnified Party deems appropriate, and the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to indemnification for all Losses arising from any such Third-Party Claim; provided that the Indemnified Party shall not settle a Third-Party Claim without the consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(c)            Notwithstanding the foregoing, if in the reasonable opinion of the Indemnified Party such Third-Party Claim, or the litigation or resolution of such Third-Party Claim, involves: (i) an issue or matter that could have a material adverse effect on the Indemnified Party, including a dispute with a significant supplier or customer of the Indemnified Party; (ii) an action the object of which is to obtain an injunction, restraining order, declaratory relief or any other non-monetary relief against the Indemnified Party; or (iii) an issue or matter in which there is a conflict of interest in the defense of such action between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to control the defense or settlement of any such claim or demand and its reasonable costs and expenses shall be included as part of the indemnification obligations of the Indemnifying Party; provided that the Indemnified Party shall not settle such claim without the consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If the Indemnified Party elects to exercise such right, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to participate in, but not control, the defense or settlement of such claim at its sole cost and expense.

10.06                Remedies Exclusive.

Except as herein expressly provided, the remedies provided in this Article 10 shall be the exclusive remedies of the parties from and after the Closing arising out of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby provided that nothing herein shall be deemed or construed to prohibit any party from asserting or recovering damages in connection with any claims for damages arising from fraud.

10.07                Pre-Closing Investigations.

The right of an Indemnified Party to indemnification hereunder will not be affected by any investigation conducted, or any knowledge acquired (or capable or being acquired), at any time, whether before or after the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the Closing Date, with respect to the accuracy of, or compliance with, any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement, except that, in such event, an Indemnified Party will not be entitled to indemnification with respect to any inaccuracy or breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement that it had actual knowledge of prior to Closing and that would result in the failure of a condition set forth in Section 8.03 or 9.03.

10.08                Effect of Indemnification.

Any indemnity payment made hereunder shall be treated by the parties as an adjustment to the Final Purchase Price to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law.

(b)            The Sellers hereby authorize the Sellers Representative to represent them, and their successors, with respect to the following matters: (i) to make all calculations and determinations in order to determine the Closing Net Working Capital pursuant to Section 3.03 hereof, (ii) to enforce and protect the rights and interests of the Sellers arising out of or under or in any manner relating to this Agreement and each other agreement, document, instrument or certificate referred to herein or therein or the transactions provided for herein or therein (including in connection with any and all claims for indemnification brought under Section 10.02 hereof, including the defense or settlement of any claims) and to take any and all actions which the Sellers Representative believes are necessary or appropriate under this Agreement for and on behalf of the Sellers, (iii) to make, execute, acknowledge, deliver and receive all such other agreements, guarantees, orders, receipts, endorsements, notices, requests, instructions, certificates, stock powers, letters and other writings, and, in general, to do any and all things and to take any and all action that the Sellers Representative, in its sole and absolute discretion, may consider necessary or proper or convenient in connection with or to carry out the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and all other agreements, documents or instruments referred to herein or therein or executed in connection herewith and therewith, (iv) to execute and deliver such waivers and consents in connection with this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby as the Sellers Representative, in his sole discretion, may deem necessary or desirable and (v) to cause the delivery of all documents to be delivered to Buyer pursuant to Section 4.03 (and to waive any condition to the Closing). The Sellers Representative shall send copies of notices it receives to the applicable Sellers. In the event that William A. Harfosh or any substitute Sellers Representative dies, becomes unable to perform his responsibilities as Sellers Representative or resigns from such position, the Sellers having an aggregate percentage of greater than 50% of the Shares (or if after the Closing, who had immediately prior to the Closing an aggregate percentage of greater than 50% of the Shares) shall select another representative to fill such vacancy and such substituted Sellers Representative shall be deemed to be the Sellers Representative for all purposes of this Agreement. All decisions and actions by the Sellers Representative, including without limitation any agreement between the Sellers Representative and Buyer relating to indemnification obligations of Buyer under Section 10.03, including the defense or settlement of any claims and the making of payments with respect hereto, shall be binding upon all of the Sellers, and no Seller shall have the right to object, dissent, protest or otherwise contest the same. The Sellers Representative shall incur no liability to the Sellers with respect to any action taken or suffered by the Sellers Representative in reliance upon any notice, direction, instruction, consent, statement or other documents believed by him to be genuinely and duly authorized, nor for any other action or inaction with respect to the indemnification obligations of Buyer under Section 10.03, including the defense or settlement of any claims and the making of payments with respect thereto, except to the extent resulting from the Sellers Representative’s own willful misconduct or gross negligence. The Sellers Representative may, in all questions arising under this Agreement, rely on the advice of counsel, and for anything done, omitted or suffered in good faith by the Sellers Representative shall not be liable to the Sellers. The Buyer and the Sellers shall be able to rely conclusively on the instructions and decisions of the Sellers Representative with respect to the indemnification obligations of the Buyer under Section 10.03, including the defense or settlement of any claims or the making of payments with respect thereto, or as to any other actions required or permitted to be taken by the Sellers Representative hereunder, and no party hereunder shall have any cause of action against the Buyer and the Sellers to the extent they have relied upon the instructions or decisions of the Sellers Representative. The Sellers acknowledge and agree that the Sellers Representative may incur reasonable costs and expenses on behalf of the Sellers (“Sellers Representative Expenses”). Each Seller agrees to pay the Sellers Representative, promptly upon demand by the Sellers Representative therefor, its portion of any Sellers Representative Expenses. The Sellers Representative shall have the authority to represent any Seller with respect to the indemnification obligations of the Sellers under Section 10.02 of this Agreement.
