21

3.6          Escrow and Net Working Capital Adjustment.

(a)           At Closing, Parent shall deliver to the Escrow Agent, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, an aggregate amount equal to the Escrow Amount to be held in an escrow account and disbursed in the manner set forth in the Escrow Agreement, which shall provide that fifty percent (50%) of the Escrow Amount, less (i) any payments paid out of the Escrow during the first twelve (12) months and (ii) Parent's reasonable estimate of the maximum aggregate amount of all pending claims against the Escrow Amount, subject to the procedural requirements of the Escrow Agreement, shall be paid to the Exchange Agent for payment to the Stockholders, Warrantholders and Eligible Optionholders in accordance with the Letters of Transmittal twelve (12) months after Closing and the balance of such funds shall be paid to Exchange Agent for payment to the Stockholders, Warrantholders and Eligible Optionholders in accordance with the Letters of Transmittal eighteen (18) months after the Closing less the total amount of any pending claims.  The Parties hereto agree that Parent shall be treated as the owner of the Escrow Amount, all interest and other income earned on the Escrow Account shall be reported as taxable income of Parent, and no Stockholder, Warrantholder or Eligible Optionholder shall be treated for Tax purposes as having received any of the Escrow Amount, in each case, except to the extent and until such amount is actually disbursed to the Stockholders, Warrantholder or Eligible Optionholder in accordance with the Escrow Agreement.  Except as otherwise required by law, the Parties hereto shall file applicable Tax forms consistent with such treatment.  Any disputes relating to the distribution of the Escrow Amount shall be subject to the dispute resolution provisions set forth in the Escrow Agreement.  Any distribution of the Escrow Amount to the Stockholders, Warrantholders and Eligible Optionholders shall be done in accordance with instructions (including allocation instructions) provided to the Escrow Agent by the Stockholder Representatives.  None of Parent, Merger Sub or the Surviving Corporation shall have any Liability to any Stockholder, Warrantholder and Eligible Optionholder with respect to such allocation of the Escrow Amount.

(c)           Estimated Net Working Capital Adjustment.  The Company has prepared, in good faith, an estimated consolidated balance sheet of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of a date no later than the close of business on the Business Day prior to the Closing Date, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Parent and the Company (the "Estimated Closing Balance Sheet"), and a statement which shall set forth estimates of the Net Working Capital Amount (the "Estimated Net Working Capital Adjustment Statement") and the resulting Net Working Capital Adjustment, if any (the "Estimated Net Working Capital Adjustment").  The Company has prepared such Estimated Closing Balance Sheet and Estimated Net Working Capital Adjustment Statement in accordance with GAAP using, to the extent consistent with GAAP, the same accounting methods, policies, principles, practices and procedures, with consistent classifications, judgments and estimation methodology, as were used in the preparation of the balance sheet of the Company for the period ended December 31, 2007 and did not include any changes in assets or liabilities as a result of purchase accounting adjustments or other changes arising from or resulting from the Merger or the other Transactions (the "Applicable Principles"). The Aggregate Initial Consideration Amount to be delivered by Parent at the Closing pursuant to Section 3.2 shall be changed by the amount of the Estimated Net Working Capital Adjustment, which change shall be an increase if the Estimated Net Working Capital Adjustment is a positive number and which change shall be a decrease if the Estimated Net Working Capital Adjustment is a negative number.  The Estimated Closing Balance Sheet and Estimated Net Working Capital Adjustment shall be accepted for purposes of determining the amount of cash payable at the Closing, but shall not affect the rights of the Parties to dispute the Closing Balance Sheet as provided in Sections 3.6(e), (f) and (g).

(d)           Preparation of Closing Balance Sheet.  As promptly as practicable, but not later than sixty (60) calendar days after the Closing Date (the "Preparation Period"), Parent shall prepare in good faith, or cause to be prepared in good faith, and shall deliver to the Stockholder Representatives a consolidated balance sheet of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Closing Date (the "Closing Balance Sheet"), and a statement which shall set forth the Net Working Capital Amount (the "Net Working Capital Adjustment Statement") and the resulting Net Working Capital Adjustment which shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP, using, to the extent consistent with GAAP, the Applicable Principles.  The Stockholder Representatives and their accountants and representatives may meet with or make inquiries of Parent and its accountants and representatives at any time (whether prior to, during or subsequent to the preparation of the Closing Balance Sheet and Net Working Capital Adjustment Statement) regarding questions concerning, or disagreements with, the Closing Balance Sheet and the other statement arising in the course of their review thereof, and Parent shall use its, and shall cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to use their respective, commercially reasonable efforts to cause any such accountants to cooperate with and respond to such inquiries.  Immediately after receipt of the Closing Balance Sheet or the other statement, the Stockholder Representatives shall be given reasonable access to (and reasonable numbers of copies of), the books and records of the Company and its Subsidiaries and all of Parent's and its representatives' work papers, worksheets, notes and schedules used in the preparation of the Closing Balance Sheet during reasonable business hours for the purpose of reviewing the Closing Balance Sheet and the Net Working Capital Adjustment Statement.  Unless Parent provides the Stockholder Representatives the Closing Balance Sheet and the Net Working Capital Adjustment Statement in writing within such Preparation Period, the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet and the Estimated Net Working

23

Capital Adjustment Statement delivered to Parent by the Company prior to Closing and the resulting Estimated Net Working Capital Adjustment, if any, shall be binding on the Parties, and shall be the final Closing Balance Sheet and the final Net Working Capital Adjustment for purposes of this Agreement.

(e)           Review of Closing Balance Sheet.  Within twenty (20) days after the receipt of the Closing Balance Sheet and the Net Working Capital Adjustment Statement by the Stockholder Representatives (the "Review Period"), the Stockholder Representatives shall propose in good faith to Parent such adjustments (if any) therein as shall in the Stockholder Representatives' good faith judgment be required to cause the Closing Balance Sheet and the Net Working Capital Adjustment Statement to reflect fairly those items required to be included therein.  Unless the Stockholder Representatives notifies Parent in writing within such Review Period of an objection to any item or computation set forth on the Closing Balance Sheet and the Net Working Capital Adjustment Statement, specifying in reasonable detail the basis for such objection, the Closing Balance Sheet and the Net Working Capital Adjustment Statement delivered to the Stockholder Representatives by Parent, and the resulting Net Working Capital Adjustment, if any, shall be binding on the Parties hereto, and shall be the final Closing Balance Sheet and the final Net Working Capital Adjustment for purposes of this Agreement.

(f)            Dispute Resolution.  Any dispute concerning any portion or amount of the Net Working Capital Adjustment set forth on the Closing Balance Sheet and the Net Working Capital Adjustment Statement which cannot be resolved by the Parties despite good faith negotiations, all within ten (10) calendar days after Parent's receipt of the Stockholder Representatives' written objection, shall be submitted for determination to a nationally-recognized certified public accounting firm which is independent of Parent and the Company and reasonably approved by Parent and the Company (the "Arbiter") for resolution of the disputed items and determination of the Closing Balance Sheet, the Net Working Capital Amount and the resulting Net Working Capital Adjustment.  Prior to referring the matter to the Arbiter, the Parties shall agree on the procedures to be followed by the Arbiter, including procedures with regard to the presentation of evidence.  If the Parties are unable to agree upon procedures within the time prescribed for referral of the dispute to the Arbiter, the Arbiter shall establish such procedures giving due regard to the intention of the Parties to resolve disputes as quickly, efficiently and inexpensively as possible, which procedures may, but need not, be those proposed by either Parent or the Stockholder Representatives.  Parent, the Stockholder Representatives and their respective representatives will each furnish to the Arbiter and the other Parties such work papers, schedules and other documents relating to the unresolved disputed issues as the Arbiter may request.  The Arbiter shall be directed to render a written report to the Parties on the unresolved disputed issues with respect to the Closing Balance Sheet and the resulting Net Working Capital Adjustment as promptly as practicable, and to resolve only those issues in dispute that were identified with reasonable specificity by the Stockholder Representatives in its objection.  The determination by the Arbiter shall be based solely on presentations by Parent, on the one hand, and the Stockholder Representatives, on the other hand, and shall not involve independent review.  Any determination of the Net Working Capital Adjustment by the Arbiter shall not be outside the range defined by the respective amounts in the Closing Balance Sheet proposed by Parent and the Stockholder Representatives proposed adjustments thereto, and such determination shall be final and binding upon the Parties.  Any further submissions to the Arbiter must be written and delivered to each Party.  The Arbiter's determination shall be based solely

24

on the definitions of Net Working Capital Amount contained herein and the provisions of this Section 3.6.  The Stockholder Representatives and Parent shall use their reasonable efforts to cause the Arbiter to resolve all disagreements as soon as practicable.  The costs and expenses of the Arbiter shall be allocated between Parent, on the one hand, and the Stockholder Representatives (solely from and to the extent of the Escrow Amount), on the other hand, based upon the percentage which the portion of the contested amount not awarded to each Party hereto bears to the amount actually contested by such Party hereto.  For example, if the Stockholder Representatives claims the appropriate adjustments are $1,000 greater than the amount determined by Parent's accountants, and Parent contests only $500 of the amount claimed by the Stockholder Representatives, and if the Arbiter ultimately resolves the dispute by awarding to Parent $300 of the $500 contested, then the costs and expenses of arbitration will be allocated 60% (i.e., 300 ÷ 500) to the Stockholders, Warrantholders and Eligible Optionholders and 40% (i.e., 200 ÷ 500) to Parent.

(g)           Payment of Net Working Capital Adjustment.  Within five (5) Business Days following (i) the termination of the Review Period, if no written objection to the Closing Balance Sheet and Net Working Capital Adjustment has been delivered by the Stockholder Representatives during the Review Period in accordance with Section 3.6, (ii) the acceptance by Parent of the Stockholder Representatives' proposed adjustments to the Closing Balance Sheet and the Net Working Capital Adjustment, (iii) the agreement by Parent and the Stockholder Representatives to a Closing Balance Sheet and Net Working Capital Adjustment in accordance with this Section 3.6 or (iv) resolution by the Arbiter of any Closing Balance Sheet and Net Working Capital Adjustment disputes pursuant to subsection (f) above, (A) in the event that the Estimated Net Working Capital Adjustment exceeds the final Net Working Capital Adjustment the Stockholder Representatives and Parent shall execute and cause a Joint Direction (as defined in the Escrow Agreement) to be delivered pursuant to the Escrow Agreement within five (5) Business Days after such resolution, which Joint Direction shall direct the Escrow Agent to make a payment out of the Escrow Account to Parent in an amount equal to such excess, and (B) in the event the final Net Working Capital Adjustment exceeds the Estimated Net Working Capital Adjustment, Parent shall pay the Exchange Agent (for the benefit of all of the Stockholders, Warrantholders and Eligible Optionholders in accordance with their Per Share Common Escrow Consideration, Per Share Series A Escrow Consideration, Per Share Series B Escrow Consideration or Per Share Series C Escrow Consideration, as the case may be) the amount of such excess by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by the Stockholder Representatives.

(h)           Severance Obligations. All obligations set forth in Schedule 2 required to be paid at the Closing shall be paid to Parent to the beneficiary named therein on behalf of the Company at Closing, and the remaining obligations under Schedule 2 shall be satisfied as soon as required thereafter.

(i)            Permitted Indebtedness.  Parent shall pay the Permitted Indebtedness on behalf of the Company at the Closing.

26

reasonably be expected to adversely affect the Tax liability of the Stockholders, Optionholders or Warrantholders or to create an indemnification obligation with respect to Taxes under Section 10.1(a) (it being acknowledged for purposes of this Section 4.2(a) that solely the completion of the transactions occurring on the Closing Date or the Two Business Days immediately preceding the Closing Date, themselves, will not have such adverse effect or create an indemnification obligation), then such items shall be submitted to the Arbiter for resolution in accordance with Section 3.6(f).

(b)           Parent shall timely prepare or cause to be prepared and file or cause to be filed any Tax Returns of the Company and its Subsidiaries with respect to any period beginning on or before the Closing Date and ending after the Closing Date (each, a "Straddle Period") relating to Income Taxes (the "Parent's Returns").  All such Parent's Returns shall be prepared and filed in a manner consistent with the past practice of the Company and its Subsidiaries in filing Income Tax Returns relating to Taxes unless otherwise required by applicable Law.  The Stockholder Representatives shall pay to Parent at least three (3) Business Days prior to the date on which Income Taxes are due with respect to any Straddle Period (taking into account extensions) an amount equal to the portion of the Income Taxes for such Straddle Period (as finally determined under this Section 4.2(b)) that are allocable to the portion of such Straddle Period ending on September 5, 2008, determined using principles set forth in Section 4.2(c).  Parent shall deliver, at least thirty (30) calendar days prior to the due date for the filing of each Parent's Return (taking into account extensions), to the Stockholder Representatives a statement setting forth the amount of Income Tax for which the Stockholder Representatives is responsible pursuant to this Section 4.2(b) with respect to such Tax Return and copies of such Tax Return.  The Stockholder Representatives shall have the right to review and comment on such Tax Return and the statement prior to the filing of such Tax Return.  The Stockholder Representatives and Parent agree to consult and resolve in good faith any issue arising as a result of the Stockholder Representatives' review of such Tax Return and statement, and mutually to consent to the filing as promptly as possible of such Tax Return; provided that if the Stockholder Representatives and Parent are unable to resolve any such issue within fifteen (15) calendar days after such Tax Return is submitted to the Stockholder Representatives, the dispute shall be submitted to the Arbiter for resolution in a manner consistent with the dispute resolution provisions of Section 3.6(f).

(c)           If the Company and its Subsidiaries are permitted under any applicable foreign, state or local income tax Law to treat the Closing Date as the last day of a taxable period, the Stockholder Representatives and Parent shall treat (and cause their respective Affiliates to treat) the Closing Date as the last day of a taxable period.  For all purposes under this Agreement, in the case of Taxes that are payable with respect to any Straddle Period, the portion of any such Tax that is allocable to the portion of the period ending on the close of the Closing Date shall be (i) in the case of Taxes that are (x) based upon or related to income or receipts, (y) imposed in connection with the sale or other transfer or assignment of property (real or personal, tangible or intangible), (z) employment, social security or other similar Taxes, deemed equal to the amount which would be payable if the taxable year ended on the Closing Date; and (ii) in the case of Taxes imposed on a periodic basis with respect to any assets or otherwise measured by the level of any item, deemed to be the amount of such Taxes for the entire period (or, in the case of such Taxes determined on an arrears basis, the amount of such Taxes for the immediately preceding period) multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is

27

the number of calendar days in the period ending at the end of the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire period; provided, however, that, in such case, any Taxes of the Company resulting from the Transactions other than the Merger shall be solely borne by Parent.

(d)           The Stockholder Representatives and Parent shall, upon written request of the other, (i) provide the other, and Parent shall cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to provide the Stockholder Representatives, with such assistance as may be reasonably requested by any of them in connection with the preparation of any Tax Return, audit, or other examination by any taxing authority or judicial or administrative proceedings relating to Liability for Taxes involving the Company or its Subsidiaries, (ii) retain and provide the other, and Parent shall cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to retain and provide the Stockholder Representatives with, any records or other information that may be relevant to such Tax Return, audit or examination, proceeding, or determination, and (iii) provide the other with any final determination of any such audit or examination, proceeding, or determination that affects any amount required to be shown on any Tax Return of the other or the Company or its Subsidiary of the Company for any period.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Parent shall retain, and shall cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to retain, and Stockholder Representatives shall retain, until the applicable statutes of limitations (including any extensions) have expired, copies of all Tax Returns, supporting work schedules, and other records or information that may be relevant to such returns for all Tax periods or portions thereof ending before or including the Closing Date involving the Company or its Subsidiaries and shall not destroy or otherwise dispose of any such records without first providing the other Party with a reasonable opportunity to review and copy the same.  Except as set forth in this Agreement, each Party shall bear its own expenses in complying with the foregoing provisions; provided, however, that the Stockholder Representatives shall have the right to reimbursement as set forth in Section 10.6(c) and be able to deduct its own expenses (including, without limitation, any Taxes) from such amount from the Escrow Amount.

11.8        Waiver of Jury Trial.  Each of the Parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives any and all right to trial by jury of any claim or cause of action in any legal proceeding arising out of or related to this Agreement or the transactions or events contemplated hereby or any course of conduct, course of dealing, statements (whether verbal or written) or actions of any Party hereto.  The Parties hereto each agree that any and all such claims and causes of action shall be tried by the court without a jury.  Each of the Parties hereto further waives any right to seek to consolidate any such legal proceeding in which a jury trial has been waived with any other legal proceeding in which a jury trial cannot or has not been waived.

11.9        Specific Performance.  The Parties acknowledge that irreparable damage may result if this Agreement and the Transaction Documents were not specifically enforced, and they therefore agree that the non-breaching Party may seek a decree of specific performance from a court of competent jurisdiction to enforce this Agreement.  Such remedy shall, however, not be exclusive and shall be in addition to any other remedies which any Party may have under this Agreement, the Transaction Documents or otherwise.

11.10      Headings.  The subject headings of Articles and Sections of this Agreement are included for purposes of convenience only and shall not affect the construction or interpretation of any of its provisions.

11.11      Assignment.  Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned by any of the Parties (whether by operation of Law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other Parties.  Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and assigns, provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement shall or is intended to limit the ability of Parent to assign its rights or delegate its responsibilities,

liabilities and obligations under this Agreement, in whole or in part, without the consent of the Company to (i) any Affiliate of Parent provided that such Affiliate expressly assumes such assignment or delegation, (ii) any buyer of all or substantially all of the assets of Parent, the Company or any Subsidiary thereof provided that such Buyer expressly assumes such assignment or delegation, or (iii) subject to observance of Parent obligations under the Escrow Agreement, commercial bank lenders to any of Parent, the Company or any Subsidiary thereof as security for borrowings at any time whether prior to or following the Closing Date.  Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, except as specifically provided in Article 10, nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, is intended to confer on any Person other than the Parties or their respective successors and assigns any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement.

11.12      Entire Agreement.  This Agreement and all the Schedules and Exhibits attached to this Agreement (all of which shall be deemed incorporated in the Agreement and made a part hereof), and the Transaction Documents set forth the entire understanding of the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements, written or oral, of the Parties hereto, and shall not be modified or affected by any offer, proposal, statement or representation, oral or written, made by or for any Party in connection with the negotiation of the terms hereof, and may be modified only by instruments signed by all of the Parties required in accordance with Section 11.4.

11.13      Interpretative Matters.  Unless the context otherwise requires, (i) all references to Articles, Sections, Schedules or Exhibits are to Articles, Sections, Schedules or Exhibits contained in or attached to this Agreement, (ii) each accounting term not otherwise defined in this Agreement has the meaning assigned to it in accordance with GAAP, (iii) words in the singular or plural include the singular and plural and pronouns stated in either the masculine, the feminine or neuter gender shall include the masculine, feminine and neuter, (iv) the use of the word "including" in this Agreement shall be by way of example rather than limitation and (v) except as otherwise indicated, all references (A) to any agreement (including this Agreement), contract or Law are to the agreement, contract or Law as amended, modified, supplemented or replaced from time to time, and (B) to any Government Authority include any successor to that Government Authority.

11.14      No Strict Construction.  The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the Parties to express their mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction will be applied against any Party.

11.15      Publicity.  Prior to the Closing, the Parties agree that they shall not issue any announcement or press release relating, directly or indirectly, to the Transactions unless such announcement or release is mutually agreed to by each of the Parties.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Party may release such information that is required of them pursuant to any Law; provided that such releasing Party (prior to such release) immediately inform the other Parties hereto regarding the requirement and content of such release.

11.16      Time of the Essence.  For purposes of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, time is of the essence.

11.17      Incorporation of Exhibits.  The Company Disclosure Schedule, the Parent Disclosure Schedule, the Schedules and all Exhibits attached hereto and referred to herein are hereby incorporated herein and made a part hereof for all purposes as if fully set forth herein.

11.18      Disclosure Generally.  The Company Disclosure Schedule and the Parent Disclosure Schedule attached hereto are incorporated herein and expressly made a part of this Agreement as though completely set forth herein.  The inclusion of any information in any Schedule (or updated Schedule) shall not be deemed to be an admission or acknowledgment by the Company, in and of itself, that such information is material to or outside the ordinary course of the businesses of the Company and its Subsidiaries.  Capitalized terms used in the schedules and not otherwise defined therein have the meanings given to them in this Agreement.  Any information or document posted in the online data room and available for inspection at least three (3) Business Days prior to the date hereof by all Persons Affiliated with or representing Parent with access to the online data room as of such time shall be deemed to have been provided to, and made available to, Parent.  Any information or document not posted prior thereto shall be deemed not to have been provided to, and made available to, Parent.

11.19      Knowledge.  Where any representation or warranty of the Company contained in this Agreement is expressly qualified by reference "to the knowledge of the Company," "to the Company's knowledge" or words of similar import, it refers to the knowledge of any of George F. Horner III, Robert S. Radie, J. Paul Hoppenjans with respect to financial matters, and Martin Stogniew with respect to scientific or regulatory matters, as to the existence or absence of facts or circumstances that are the subject of such representations and warranties.  Where any statement in this Agreement is expressly qualified by reference "to the knowledge of Parent," "to the Parent's knowledge," or words of similar import, it refers to the knowledge of Greg Gubitz, Alex Matheson and, with respect to tax matters, Chris Bovaird as to the existence or absence of facts or circumstances that are the subject of such representations and warranties.
