(a) Closing Adjustment.  

(i) Prior to the Closing, the Company shall prepare and deliver to Buyer a statement setting forth its good faith estimate of Closing Adjusted Working Capital (the " Estimated Closing Working Capital "), which statement shall contain an estimated balance sheet of the Company as of the Closing Date (without giving effect to the transactions contemplated herein), a calculation of Estimated Closing Working Capital (the " Estimated Closing Working Capital Statement "), and a certificate of the Chief Executive Officer of the Company that the Estimated Closing Working Capital Statement was prepared with consistent classifications, judgments and valuation and estimation methodologies as those that were used in the preparation of the Financial Statements for the most recent fiscal year end as if such Estimated Closing Working Capital Statement was being prepared and audited as of a fiscal year end.

(ii) The " Closing Adjustment " shall be an amount equal to the Estimated Closing Working Capital minus $3,814,000 (the " Target Working Capital "). If the Closing Adjustment is a positive number, the Purchase Price shall be increased by the amount of the Closing Adjustment. If the Closing Adjustment is a negative number, the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the amount of the Closing Adjustment.  In the event the Closing Adjustment is a positive number, 15% of the Closing Adjustment shall be placed into the Escrow Account and the Escrow Amount shall be increased accordingly.

(iii) There shall not be taken into account in calculating the Closing Adjustment (x) any Federal, State, local  or foreign Tax attributable to the Section 338(h)(10) Election (including, without limitation, any Tax under Code Section 1374 or any similar provision of State or local law); (y) any Federal, State, local or foreign Tax attributable to any voluntary election or other action by the Buyer or by the Company after the Closing; and (z) any bonuses paid to employees in consideration of their continuing employment with the Company following the Closing.

If the Post-Closing Adjustment is a positive number, Buyer shall pay to Sellers an amount equal to the Post-Closing Adjustment. If the Post-Closing Adjustment is a negative number, an amount equal to the Post-Closing Adjustment shall be distributed to Buyer from the Escrow Account in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement.

(c) Examination and Review.

(i) Examination. After receipt of the Closing Working Capital Statement, Sellers shall have 30 days (the " Review Period ") to review the Closing Working Capital Statement.

(ii) Objection. On or prior to the last day of the Review Period, Sellers may object to the Closing Working Capital Statement by delivering to Buyer a written statement setting forth Sellers’ objections in reasonable detail, indicating each disputed item or amount and the basis for Sellers’ disagreement therewith (the " Statement of Objections "). If Sellers fail to deliver the Statement of Objections before the expiration of the Review Period, the Closing Working Capital Statement and the Post-Closing Adjustment, as the case may be, reflected in the Closing Working Capital Statement shall be deemed to have been accepted by Sellers. If Sellers deliver the Statement of Objections before the expiration of the Review Period, Buyer and Sellers shall negotiate in good faith to resolve such objections within 30 days after the delivery of the Statement of Objections (the " Resolution Period "), and, if the same are so resolved within the Resolution Period, the Post-Closing Adjustment and the Closing Working Capital Statement with such changes as may have been previously agreed in writing by Buyer and Sellers, shall be final and binding.

(iii) Resolution of Disputes. If Sellers and Buyer fail to reach an agreement with respect to all of the matters set forth in the Statement of Objections before expiration of the Resolution Period, then any amounts remaining in dispute (" Disputed Amounts " and any amounts not so disputed, the " Undisputed Amounts ") shall be submitted for resolution to the office of WSRP Certified Public Accountants or, if WSRP Certified Public Accountants is unable to serve, Buyer and Sellers shall appoint by mutual agreement the office of an impartial nationally recognized firm of independent certified public accountants other than Sellers’ Accountants or Buyer's Accountants (the " Independent Accountant ") who, acting as experts and not arbitrators, shall resolve the Disputed Amounts only and make any adjustments to the Post-Closing Adjustment, as the case may be, and the Closing Working Capital Statement. The parties hereto agree that all adjustments shall be made without regard to materiality. The Independent Accountant shall only decide the specific items under dispute by the parties and their decision for each Disputed Amount must be within the range of values assigned to each such item in the Closing Working Capital Statement and the Statement of Objections, respectively.

(iv) Fees of the Independent Accountant. The fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant shall be paid by Sellers, on the one hand, and by Buyer, on the other hand, based upon the percentage that the amount actually contested but not awarded to Sellers or Buyer, respectively, bears to the aggregate amount actually contested by Sellers and Buyer.

(v) Determination by Independent Accountant. The Independent Accountant shall make a determination as soon as practicable within 30 days (or such other time as the parties hereto shall agree in writing) after their engagement, and their resolution of the Disputed Amounts and their adjustments to the Closing Working Capital Statement and/or the Post-Closing Adjustment shall be conclusive and binding upon the parties hereto.

Except as otherwise provided herein or in the Escrow Agreement, any payment of the Post-Closing Adjustment, together with interest calculated as set forth below, shall (A) be due (x) within five Business Days of acceptance of the applicable Closing Working Capital Statement or (y) if there are Disputed Amounts, then within five Business Days of the resolution described in clause (v) above; and (B) be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account or accounts as is directed by Buyer or Sellers, as the case may be.

Such interest shall be calculated daily on the basis of a 365 day year and the actual number of days elapsed.

Sellers shall pay any Tax attributable to the making of the Section 338(h)(10) Election and Sellers shall indemnify Buyer and the Company against any adverse consequences arising out of any failure to pay any such Taxes.

(ii) Should Buyer exercise its option with respect to the making of a Section 338(h)(10) Election, the Buyer shall increase the Purchase Price by an amount such that each of the Sellers receive and retain, on an after tax basis, the same amount that they would have received and retained had the Section 338(h)(10) Election not been made, taking into account Federal, State and local Tax implications (such increase referred to as a " Section 338(h)(10) Adjustment ").  Buyer shall indemnify Sellers and hold them harmless from and against (without duplication of any other obligation hereunder) all Taxes attributable to the making of the Section 338(h)(10) Election.  Any Section 338(h)(10) Adjustment shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price by the parties for Tax purposes.

(iii) At Closing, (A) Sellers shall deliver to Buyer Internal Revenue Service Form 8023 and any other State or local forms required for the Section 338(h)(10) Elections (collectively, the " Section 338 Forms "), each of the Section 338 Forms having been signed by Sellers and (B) Buyer shall deliver to Sellers the Section 338 Forms, each of the Section 338 Forms having been signed by Buyer .  Each of the Section 338 Forms shall, to the extent possible, be completed at or prior to the Closing.  To the extent that any item on a form has not been so completed, the parties shall agree at the Closing on the manner in which the item is to be determined, and the accountants for each of Buyer and Sellers shall make that determination and complete the form; provided that the accountants for each of Buyer and Sellers shall prepare the purchase price allocation to be used in completing the form in a manner consistent with paragraph (b) below.  Each party shall at any time and from time to time after the Closing cooperate with the other party in connection with the Section 338 Elections, including the signing by them of any other forms in order to accomplish the Section 338 Elections.  Sellers shall include any income, gain, loss, deduction, or other tax item resulting from the Section 338(h)(10) Elections on their tax returns to the extent required by applicable Federal, State or local law.  Each of Buyer and Sellers shall prepare and file its own set of the Section 338 Forms.  

(iv) Sellers, at their election, shall calculate the Section 338(h)(10) Adjustment.  In the event that Sellers elect not to perform such calculation, Buyer shall perform the calculation.  In either event, Sellers or Buyer, as applicable, shall provide to the other party a written schedule of the calculation within ninety (90) days following the determination of the allocation of the Purchase Price in accordance with Section 6.06(b).  In the event that Buyer is performing the calculation, Sellers shall provide Buyer promptly upon Buyer’s request with any relevant background and supporting information and documentation necessary to establish the basis for such calculation.  Where Sellers are performing the calculation, such information shall accompany the written calculation of the Section 338(h)(10) Adjustment.  Sellers and Buyer shall seek in good faith to resolve in writing any differences that they may have with respect to Section 338(h)(10) Adjustment, but if they cannot resolve such differences within thirty (30) days following Buyer’s delivery of its calculation, Sellers and Buyer shall submit to the Independent Accountant for arbitration any and all matters that remain in dispute, and shall thereafter provide to the Independent Accountant any information or documentation that it may reasonably request in connection with such arbitration.   The fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant shall be borne by the Buyers.  Within thirty (30) days of either (a) agreement between Buyer and Sellers on the Section 338(h)(10) Adjustment or (b) determination of the Section 338(h)(10) Adjustment by the Independent Accountant, but in no event later than ten (10) days prior to the due date (without extensions) for Sellers to file their federal income returns by their taxable year that includes the Closing Date, Buyer will pay to Sellers the so agreed or determined Section 338(h)(10) Adjustment by wire transfer. All calculations hereunder shall be based on reasonable assumptions, including without limitation the assumptions that (A) all of the taxable gain the Sellers would have recognized if no Section 338(h)(10) Election were made would have been treated as long-term capital gain for federal income Tax purposes, (B) each Seller is subject to federal income Tax on long-term capital gains at the long-term capital gain rate in effect on the Closing Date, (C) each Seller is subject to federal income Tax on ordinary income at the highest marginal rate in effect on the Closing Date, and (D) no Seller has any loss, deduction, credit or similar item for any taxable year in which a payment of the Purchase Price is made that would be available to offset any portion of, or otherwise reduce the amount of, the taxable income or gain such Seller would recognize from the transaction contemplated herein

(v) In the event there is a final determination (within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code) that the amount of Taxes due by Sellers because of the Section 338(h)(10) Election is greater than the amount of such additional Taxes upon which the Section 338(h)(10) Adjustment was calculated, the Buyer shall remit to Sellers, promptly following such final determination, an amount equal to the excess of the Section 338(h)(10) Adjustment calculated based on such increased Taxes together with any interest and penalties that may be due over the Section 338(h)(10) Adjustment originally paid.

Section 8.05 Indemnification Procedure s .   The party making a claim under this Article VIII is referred to as the " Indemnified Party ", and the party against whom such claims are asserted under this Article VIII is referred to as the " Indemnifying Party ".

(a) Third Party Claims. If any Indemnified Party receives notice of the assertion or commencement of any Action made or brought by any Person who is not a party to this Agreement or an Affiliate of a party to this Agreement or a Representative of the foregoing (a " Third Party Claim ") against such Indemnified Party with respect to which the Indemnifying Party is obligated to provide indemnification under this Agreement, the Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice thereof, but in any event not later than 20 calendar days after receipt of such notice of such Third Party Claim. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party forfeits rights or defenses by reason of such failure. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the Third Party Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to participate in, or by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party, to assume the defense of any Third Party Claim at the Indemnifying Party's expense and by the Indemnifying Party's own counsel, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate in good faith in such defense; provided, that if the Indemnifying Party is Sellers, such Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to defend or direct the defense of any such Third Party Claim that seeks an injunction or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party. In the event that the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third Party Claim, subject to Section 8.05(b) , it shall have the right to take such action as it deems necessary to avoid, dispute, defend, appeal or make counterclaims pertaining to any such Third Party Claim in the name and on behalf of the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in the defense of any Third Party Claim with counsel selected by it subject to the Indemnifying Party's right to control the defense thereof. The fees and disbursements of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party elects not to compromise or defend such Third Party Claim, fails to promptly notify the Indemnified Party in writing of its election to defend as provided in this Agreement, or fails to diligently prosecute the defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party may, subject to Section 8.05(b) , pay, compromise, defend such Third Party Claim and seek indemnification for any and all Losses based upon, arising from or relating to such Third Party Claim. Sellers and Buyer shall cooperate with each other in all reasonable respects in connection with the defense of any Third Party Claim, including making available (subject to the provisions of Section 5.03 ) records relating to such Third Party Claim and furnishing, without expense (other than reimbursement of actual out-of-pocket expenses) to the defending party, management employees of the non-defending party as may be reasonably necessary for the preparation of the defense of such Third Party Claim.

(b) Settlement of Third Party Claims. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall not enter into settlement of any Third Party Claim without

the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, except as provided in this Section 8.05(b) . If a firm offer is made to settle a Third Party Claim without leading to liability or the creation of a financial or other obligation on the part of the Indemnified Party and provides, in customary form, for the unconditional release of each Indemnified Party from all liabilities and obligations in connection with such Third Party Claim and the Indemnifying Party desires to accept and agree to such offer, the Indemnifying Party shall give written notice to that effect to the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnified Party fails to consent to such firm offer within ten days after its receipt of such notice, the Indemnified Party may continue to contest or defend such Third Party Claim and in such event, the maximum liability of the Indemnifying Party as to such Third Party Claim shall not exceed the amount of such settlement offer. If the Indemnified Party fails to consent to such firm offer and also fails to assume defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party may settle the Third Party Claim upon the terms set forth in such firm offer to settle such Third Party Claim. If the Indemnified Party has assumed the defense pursuant to Section 8.05(a) , it shall not agree to any settlement without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).
