(b) If the Shareholders’ Representative disagrees with Buyer’s determinations of Net Working Capital or Indebtedness of the Company (as reflected on the Closing Balance Sheet), the Shareholders’ Representative may, within 30 Business Days after receipt of the Closing Balance Sheet, deliver a written notice (a “ Notice of Disagreement ”) to Buyer setting forth in reasonable detail the nature and amount of any disputed item. If Buyer does not receive a Notice of Disagreement within 30 Business Days after receipt by the Shareholders’ Representative of the Closing Balance Sheet, the Closing Balance Sheet and the calculations of Net Working Capital and Indebtedness of the Company reflected therein shall be conclusive and binding (absent manifest error or willful misrepresentation). In addition, any item not identified in the Notice of Disagreement as a disputed item as contemplated by this Section 3.9 shall be conclusive and binding (absent manifest error or willful misrepresentation). If Buyer receives a Notice of Disagreement from the Shareholders’ Representative within 30 Business Days after receipt by the Shareholders’ Representative of the Closing Balance Sheet, Buyer and the Shareholders’ Representative shall use reasonable efforts to resolve any differences that they may have with respect to the matters specified therein. If Buyer and the Shareholders’ Representative have not resolved all such matters as of the 20th Business Day after delivery by the Shareholders’ Representative of the Notice of Disagreement, Buyer and the Shareholders’ Representative shall jointly retain a nationally recognized accounting firm that is mutually agreeable to the Parties and that has not been previously retained by any of the Parties (the “ Independent Accounting Firm ”) to resolve such remaining disagreement.

The costs of any dispute resolution pursuant to this Section 3.9 , including the fees and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm and of any enforcement of the determination thereof, shall be borne by the Shareholders’ Representative and Buyer in inverse proportion as they may prevail on the matters resolved by the Independent Accounting Firm, which proportionate allocation shall be calculated on an aggregate basis based on the relative dollar values of the amounts in dispute and shall be determined by the Independent Accounting Firm at the time the determination of such firm is rendered on the merits of the matters submitted. The fees and disbursements of the agents, accountants and other advisors of each Party incurred in connection with their preparation or review of the Closing Balance Sheet and preparation or review of any Notice of Disagreement, as applicable, shall be borne by such Party. The Net Working Capital and Indebtedness of the Company as finally determined in accordance with this Section 3.9 are referred to as the “ Final Net Working Capital ” and the “ Final Indebtedness ” herein.

(ii) increased by the amount that the Final Indebtedness is less than the Estimated Closing Indebtedness, or decreased by the amount that the Final Indebtedness exceeds the Estimated Closing Indebtedness; and

(iii) decreased by the amount of any Seller Party Transaction Expenses not paid on or prior to the Closing Date and not already deducted from Closing Date Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 3.7(a) .

(d) The Adjusted Closing Date Merger Consideration (as adjusted pursuant to Section 3.9(c) ) minus the Closing Date Merger Consideration is referred to as the “ Closing Date Merger Consideration Adjustment ” herein. If the Closing Date Merger Consideration Adjustment is positive, Buyer shall pay such amount in accordance with Section 3.7(b) .

If the Earn-Out Amount, taking into account any deposit of the Funded Amount pursuant to Section 3.7(d) and any recoupment and offset pursuant to Section 12.10 , is insufficient to compensate Buyer for such negative Closing Date Merger Consideration Adjustment, the Seller Parties shall be jointly and severally liable for the amount of the deficiency.

3.10 Earn-Out .

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any client or account listed on Exhibit B that would otherwise be a Terminated Client or Terminated Account shall not be deemed a Terminated Client or Terminated Account, respectively, for purposes of determining the Annualized Revenue Shortfall if an affiliate, assignee, beneficiary, heir or successor of such client maintains one or more accounts with the Company or the Post-Closing Business to which at least 50% of the Annualized Revenue (in the aggregate) derived from such client or such account that would otherwise be a Terminated Client or Terminated Account, respectively, is attributable. Within 15 Business Days after the Shareholders’ Representative’s receipt of Buyer’s determination as to the Terminated Clients and the Terminated Accounts, the Shareholders’ Representative shall submit in writing to Buyer its acceptance of or objection to Buyer’s determination (and, in the case of an objection, an explanation thereof).

Any Allocation determined pursuant to the decision of the Independent Accounting Firm shall incorporate, reflect and be consistent with the Allocation Principles. The Allocation, as prepared by HoldCo if no timely objection by Buyer has been given, as adjusted pursuant to any agreement between the Parties or as determined by the Independent Accounting Firm (the “ Final Allocation ”) shall be final and binding on all Parties. Except as required pursuant to a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313 of the Code (or any similar provision of state, local or foreign law), HoldCo, Buyer, the Company and all of their respective Affiliates shall file all Tax Returns in a manner consistent with the Transaction Tax Treatment and the Final Allocation and shall take no position inconsistent therewith (including, without limitation, in any amended Tax Returns, claims for refund or audits or examination by any Governmental Entity or any other proceedings) on any Tax Return or in connection with any Tax proceeding; provided, however, nothing herein shall prevent a Party from settling any proposed deficiency or adjustment by any Governmental Entity based on the Final Allocation and no Party will be required to litigate any proposed adjustment by any Governmental Entity challenging such Final Allocation. For the avoidance of doubt, neither HoldCo nor Buyer (or any of their Affiliates) shall take a position inconsistent with the Final Allocation as a defense or offset to any position taken by a Governmental Entity. In the event that the Final Allocation or Transaction Tax Treatment is disputed by any Governmental Entity, the Party receiving the notice of the Contest shall provide the other Party with prompt written notice thereof (which in any event shall be within 30 days of receiving notice of such Contest from the Governmental Entity). Any fees and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm shall be borne equally by the Parties. To the extent reasonably requested by either Party, subject to the foregoing, Buyer and HoldCo shall reasonably cooperate in the filing of any forms with respect to such allocation, including any required amendments to such forms. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, the foregoing agreement shall survive the Closing Date without limitation. Any adjustments to the Merger Consideration under Section 3.7(d) , Section 3.9 and Section 3.10 shall be allocated among the Assets in a manner consistent with the Allocation Principles.

The Notice of Claim shall (i) state that the Indemnitee has paid or properly accrued Losses or anticipates that it will incur Liability for Losses for which such Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement, and (ii) specify in reasonable detail, to the extent then known, each individual item of Loss included in the amount so stated, the date such item was paid or properly accrued, if applicable, the basis for any anticipated Liability and the nature of the misrepresentation, breach of warranty, breach of covenant or claim to which each such item is related and the computation of the amount to which such Indemnitee claims to be entitled hereunder, to the extent known or reasonably estimable. The Indemnitee shall enclose with the Notice of Claim a copy of all papers served with respect to such Third Party Claim, if any, and any other documents evidencing such Third Party Claim in the possession of Indemnitee.

(b) The Indemnitor will have 60 days from the date on which the Indemnitor received the Notice of Claim to notify the Indemnitee that the Indemnitor desires to assume the defense or prosecution of such Third Party Claim and any litigation resulting therefrom with counsel of its choice and at its sole cost and expense (a “ Third Party Defense ”). If the Indemnitor assumes the Third Party Defense in accordance herewith, (i) the Indemnitee may retain separate co-counsel at its sole cost and expense and participate in the defense of the Third Party Claim but the Indemnitor shall control the investigation, defense and settlement

- 57 -

thereof, (ii) the Indemnitee will not file any papers or consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnitor (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), and (iii) the Indemnitor will not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim to the extent such judgment or settlement (A) provides for equitable relief against any Indemnitee, (B) provides for monetary damages to be paid other than by the Indemnitor; (C) includes an admission of fault or liability by the Indemnitee; or (D) does not include a full release of liability of the Indemnitee. The Parties will also reasonably cooperate in any such defense and give each other reasonable access to all information relevant thereto. Whether or not the Indemnitor has assumed the Third Party Defense, such Indemnitor will not be obligated to indemnify the Indemnitee hereunder for any settlement entered into or any judgment that was consented to without the Indemnitor’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided, however, that the Indemnitee will not be required to obtain any consent of the Indemnitor to the determination of such Third Party Claim (and will not prejudice its right to be indemnified with respect to such Third Party Claim by settling such Third Party Claim) if the Indemnitor is disputing, in whole or in part, that it has an obligation to indemnify the Indemnitee in respect of such Claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnitor shall not be entitled to assume control of such defense if (x) the Third Party Claim relates to or arises in connection with any criminal Proceeding, (y) the Third Party Claim seeks an injunction or equitable relief against the Indemnitee, or (z) the Third Party Claim is brought against Buyer or the Company by a Governmental Entity and such claim seeks to, or could have the effect of, limiting the scope of business or services offered by the Company.

(c) If the Indemnitor does not assume the Third Party Defense within 60 days of receipt of the Notice of Claim, the Indemnitee will be entitled to assume the Third Party Defense, at its sole cost and expense upon delivery of notice to such effect to the Indemnitor; provided that the (i) Indemnitor shall have the right to participate in the Third Party Defense at its sole cost and expense, but the Indemnitee shall control the investigation, defense and settlement thereof; (ii) the Indemnitor may at any time thereafter assume the Third Party Defense, provided that the terms and conditions relating to such assumption as set forth in Section 12.5(b) are satisfied, in which event the Indemnitor shall bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of the Indemnitee’s counsel incurred prior to the assumption by the Indemnitor of the Third Party Defense, and (iii) the Indemnitor will not be obligated to indemnify the Indemnitee hereunder for any settlement entered into or any judgment that was consented to without the Indemnitor’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

12.6 Indemnification Procedures for Non-Third Party Claims . In the event of a claim that does not involve a Third Party Claim being asserted against it, the Indemnitee shall send a notice of claim to the Indemnitor. The notice of claim shall set forth the amount, if known, or, if not known, an estimate of the foreseeable maximum amount of claimed Losses (which estimate shall not be conclusive of the final amount of such Losses), as well as a description of the basis for such claim in reasonable detail, to the extent then known, and each individual item of Loss included in the amount or estimate so stated, the date such item was paid or properly accrued, if applicable, the basis for any anticipated Liability and the nature of the misrepresentation, breach of warranty, breach of covenant or claim to which each such item is related and the computation of the amount to which such Indemnitee claims to be entitled hereunder, to the extent known or reasonably estimable. The Indemnitor will have 30 days from receipt of such notice of claim to dispute the claim and will reasonably cooperate and assist the Indemnitee in determining the validity of the claim for indemnity. If the Indemnitor does not give notice to the Indemnitee that it disputes such claim within 30 days after its receipt of the notice of claim, the claim specified in such notice of claim will be conclusively deemed a Loss subject to indemnification hereunder.

- 58 -

12.7 No Indemnification by the Company . Upon and following the Closing, the Company shall not have any Liability or obligation to indemnify, save or hold harmless or otherwise pay, reimburse or make HoldCo or the Shareholders whole for or on account of any indemnification or other claims made by any Buyer Indemnitee hereunder. The Seller Parties shall not have any right of contribution against the Company with respect to any such indemnification or other claim.

12.8 Further Liability Limitations .

(a) Insurance Recoveries . A claim with respect to any Loss shall be reduced by the amount of any (a) insurance proceeds in respect of such Loss that are actually received by any Indemnitee hereunder, and (b) indemnification or recovery of damages from a third party for such Loss that are actually received by any Indemnitee hereunder; however, no Party shall be obligated to seek recovery from insurance policies or third parties for such Losses. In the event that a recovery from an insurance policy or third party is actually received by any Indemnitee with respect to any Loss for which any such Indemnitee has been indemnified hereunder, then a refund equal to the aggregate amount of the recovery (net of all expenses and costs incurred in obtaining such recovery) shall be made promptly to the Indemnitor.

(b) Mitigation of Damages . Except as otherwise provided herein, each Party shall take commercially reasonable steps to reasonably mitigate any Losses upon obtaining actual knowledge of any event or circumstance that would be reasonably expected to, or does, give rise thereto, including incurring costs, but only to the minimum extent necessary to remedy the breach that gives rise to such Losses (it being understood and agreed that any such costs shall be included in any calculation of Losses).

(c) No Duplication of Recoveries . If a Party is entitled to indemnification under more than one provision of this Agreement with respect to the same Losses resulting from the same set of circumstances and events, then such Party shall be entitled to recover such Losses only once (it being understood and agreed that this Section 12.8(c) is solely to preclude a duplicate recovery of the same Losses by a Party).

12.9 Contingent Claims . Nothing herein shall be deemed to prevent an Indemnitee from making a claim hereunder for potential or contingent claims or demands; provided that the notice of claim sets forth the specific basis for any such contingent claim to the extent then feasible and the Indemnitee has reasonable grounds to believe that such a claim will be made.

12.10 Recoupment and Offset .

(a) With respect to any indemnification claim of Buyer, or claim for which a Notice of Claim or notice of claim has been given by Buyer, under this Agreement, except with respect to indemnification claims governed by Section 12.10(b) , Buyer shall be indemnified (i)  first by recouping or otherwise offsetting from the Adjusted Closing Date Merger Consideration payable or to become payable by Buyer pursuant to this Agreement, (ii)  second , after the Adjusted Closing Date Merger Consideration has been exhausted, by recouping from or otherwise offsetting against the Earn-Out Amount payable or to become payable by Buyer pursuant to this Agreement (it being understood and agreed that no Seller Party shall be required to pay out-of-pocket any Losses for which any Buyer Indemnitee is entitled to

- 59 -

indemnification under this Agreement until after the Earn-Out Amount is exhausted by offset or recoupment as provided above in accordance with this Agreement), and (iii)  third by the Seller Parties in accordance with this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, Buyer may recoup from or otherwise offset against the Earn-Out Amount in accordance with this Section 12.10(a) without regard to whether the liability for which indemnification is sought is several and not joint in nature.

(b) With respect to any indemnification claim of Buyer or claim for which a Notice of Claim or notice of claim has been given by Buyer as the result of any inaccuracy or breach, or any allegation by that if true would constitute such an inaccuracy or breach, of Section 5.9(o) , Buyer shall be indemnified (i)  first from the Escrow Funds and (ii)  second by the Seller Parties in accordance with this Agreement.

12.11 Exclusive Remedy . Except with respect to an action based upon an allegation of fraud or with respect to which equitable relief is sought (and solely to the extent such action is based on the allegation of fraud or seeks equitable relief) or as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the provisions of this ARTICLE XII constitute the sole and exclusive monetary remedy of the Parties for any breach, inaccuracy or nonfulfillment of any representation, warranty, covenant or obligation contained in this Agreement or otherwise relating in any way to the subject matter of this Agreement. In furtherance of the foregoing, each Party hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, any and all rights, claims and causes of action for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement it may have against the other Parties and their Affiliates arising under or based upon any applicable law, except for (a) all rights and remedies pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this ARTICLE XII , which shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with this Agreement, (b) all rights and remedies pursuant to the Transaction Documents other than this Agreement and (c) any claims arising from or with respect to which equitable relief is sought.

12.12 Indemnification if Negligence of Indemnitee; Effect of Investigation .  The indemnification provided in this ARTICLE XII will be applicable whether or not the sole, joint, or contributory negligence of the Indemnitee is alleged or proven. An Indemnitee’s right to indemnification or other remedies based upon the representations and warranties and covenants and agreements of the Indemnitor will not be affected by any investigation or knowledge of the Indemnitee or any waiver by the Indemnitee of any condition based on the accuracy of any representation or warranty, or compliance with any covenant or agreement. Such representations and warranties and covenants and agreements shall not be affected or deemed waived by reason of the fact that the Indemnitee knew or should have known that any representation or warranty might be inaccurate or that the Indemnitor failed to comply with any agreement or covenant. Any investigation by any Party shall be for its own protection only and shall not affect or impair any right or remedy hereunder.

12.13 Shareholders’ Representative .

(a) Each of the Shareholders hereby appoints, and effective upon the Reorganization HoldCo hereby appoints, Richard Morales as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact and agent (the “ Shareholders’ Representative ”), with full power of substitution or resubstitution, to act solely and exclusively on behalf of HoldCo and each of the Shareholders with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and to act on behalf of HoldCo and each of the Shareholders in any litigation or arbitration involving this Agreement, to do or refrain from doing all such further acts and things, and to execute all such documents (including,

- 60 -

without limitation, the Escrow Agreement) as the Shareholders’ Representative shall deem necessary or appropriate in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, including the power:

(i) to act for HoldCo and each of the Shareholders with regard to matters pertaining to indemnification referred to in this Agreement, including the power to compromise any indemnity claim on behalf of HoldCo and each of the Shareholders;

(vii) to receive service of process in connection with any claims under this Agreement.

(b) The appointment of the Shareholders’ Representative shall be deemed coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable, and Buyer and any other Person may conclusively and absolutely rely, without inquiry, upon any action of the Shareholders’ Representative in all matters referred to herein. Any action taken by the Shareholders’ Representative must be in writing and must be signed by the Shareholders’ Representative. All notices required to be made or delivered by Buyer to the Company and HoldCo and each of the Shareholders described above shall be made to the Shareholders’ Representative for the benefit of HoldCo and each of the Shareholders and shall discharge in full all notice requirements of Buyer, as applicable, to HoldCo and each of the Shareholders with respect thereto. By appointment of the Shareholders’ Representative, HoldCo and each of the Shareholders thereby confirm all that the Shareholders’ Representative shall do or cause to be done by virtue of his appointment as the representative of HoldCo and each of the Shareholders hereunder. The Shareholders’ Representative shall act for HoldCo and each of the Shareholders on all of the matters set forth in this Agreement in the manner the Shareholders’ Representative believes to be in the best interest of HoldCo and each of the Shareholders and consistent with the obligations of HoldCo and each of the Shareholders under this Agreement, but the Shareholders’ Representative shall not be responsible to HoldCo or any of the Shareholders for any damages which any of HoldCo or any of the Shareholders may suffer by the performance of such duties under this Agreement, other than damages arising from willful violation of applicable Law or gross negligence in the performance of such duties under this Agreement. The Shareholders’ Representative shall not have any duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or shall otherwise exist against the Shareholders’ Representative.

- 61 -

(c) If at any time there is no Shareholders’ Representative, the Shareholders will appoint a Shareholders’ Representative within 15 calendar days. If the Shareholders fail to so appoint a Shareholders’ Representative, Judy C. Bozeman will be the replacement Shareholders’ Representative. The Shareholders may appoint a replacement Shareholders’ Representative at any time by delivery to Buyer of a writing executed by each of the Principal Shareholders. If at any time there is no Shareholders’ Representative, notice to CHWWA will be deemed adequate notice as if it had duly been given to a Shareholders’ Representative.

(d) The Shareholders’ Representative shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any statements furnished to it by HoldCo and each of the Shareholders, Buyer or any other evidence deemed by the Shareholders’ Representative to be reliable, and the Shareholders’ Representative shall be entitled to act on the advice of counsel selected by it. The Shareholders’ Representative shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement unless he shall have received such advice or concurrence of HoldCo and each of the Shareholders as he deems appropriate or he shall have been expressly indemnified to his satisfaction by HoldCo and each of the Shareholders against any and all Liability and expense that the Shareholders’ Representative may incur by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Shareholders’ Representative shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or refraining from acting, under this Agreement in accordance with a request of HoldCo and each of the Shareholders, and such request, and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto, shall be binding upon HoldCo and each of the Shareholders.
