8.2 Consents. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, this Agreement shall not constitute an agreement to assign any Assumed Contract if an attempted assignment thereof, without consent of a third party thereto, would constitute a breach or other contravention thereof or in any way adversely affects the rights of Buyer or Seller thereunder. As soon as practicable following the Closing Date, each of the parties, respectively, shall commence and diligently pursue and use its reasonable and good faith efforts to obtain all Consents set forth on Schedule 6.8 and Permits (if applicable) and to otherwise make all notices to, and to make all filings with, any Person as may be necessary to authorize, approve or permit the full and complete sale and transfer of the Purchased Assets as contemplated hereby, and upon obtaining such Consent, if obtained, such Assumed Contract will be assigned to Buyer. In connection with this Section 8.2, the parties agree to fully cooperate with each other in connection with the obtaining of the foregoing Consents and Permits, including, without limitation, promptly delivering and executing any and all agreements, disclosures, statements, instruments and documents and to take any other actions reasonably required in order to obtain said Consents and Permits. Unless and until such Consent is obtained, or if an attempted assignment thereof would be ineffective or would adversely affect the rights of Seller thereunder so that Buyer would not in fact receive all rights under such Assumed Contract, the Seller and Buyer will cooperate in an arrangement under which Buyer would obtain the benefits and assume the Obligations thereunder in accordance with this Agreement, including subcontracting, sub-licensing, or subleasing to Buyer, or under which Sellers would enforce, at Buyer’s expense, for the benefit of Buyer, with Buyer assuming at Buyer’s expense the Sellers’ obligations thereunder, any and all rights of Seller against a third party thereto. For the avoidance of doubt, only those Assumed Contracts capable of being assigned without the Consent of the other party thereto shall be assigned to Buyer at Closing pursuant to the conveyance document delivered by Seller pursuant to Section 11.1(d), and the Assumed Contracts not being so assigned at Closing, which are set forth in Schedule 6.8, shall be assigned by Seller to Buyer upon the requisite Consent being obtained, if obtained.

As soon as practicable after the Effective Date, Seller will provide Buyer with access to all Applicable Employees for the purpose of allowing Buyer or its Affiliates to make offers of employment or offers to become independent contractors, of Buyer or Buyer’s Affiliates, as well as conducting discussions with such Applicable Employees preparatory thereto. On the Closing Date, Seller will terminate the employment of all Applicable Employees, including each Applicable Employee who has accepted Buyer’s offer of employment or any offer to become an independent contractor for Buyer, and shall take all such other actions as are reasonably necessary to allow such Applicable Employee or any former employee to work for Buyer or its Affiliates in either such capacity; provided, that Seller shall continue employee benefits for all Applicable Employees through June 30, 2009.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement will be deemed to require Buyer to hire or engage any Applicable Employee or former employee at all or on any terms.

With respect to any Applicable Employees that Buyer hires as employees or independent contractors and who accept such employment or engagement, Seller shall be responsible for and pay, and Buyer shall have no Obligation with respect to all Obligations or Claims or Seller Employer Liabilities relating to such Applicable Employees to the extent first arising prior to the Closing Date. With respect to the Applicable Employees that Buyer is not hiring as shown on Schedule 2.3 hereof, (i) consistent with Schedule 2.5, Buyer shall be responsible for and pay, and Seller shall have no Obligation with respect to any Claims made by any of, or Seller Employer Liabilities relating to, such Applicable Employees arising out of, or relating in any way to, Buyer’s decision not to hire such Applicable Employees and (ii) Seller shall be responsible for and pay, and Buyer shall have no Obligation with respect to: (A) all severance Obligations set forth on Schedule 8.4(c) and (B) all Obligations or Claims or Seller Employer Liabilities relating to such Applicable Employees to the extent not relating to Buyer’s decision not hire such Applicable Employees.

The terms and provisions of this Section 8.6 shall survive Closing.

8.7 Allocation of Purchase Price.

The terms and provisions of this Section 8.7 shall survive Closing.

(a) Neither the Seller nor any of its Affiliates, employees or representatives will (i) initiate, solicit or knowingly encourage (it being understood that providing non-public information in the Ordinary Course of Business will not, in and of itself, constitute encouragement hereunder) the submission of any inquiries, proposals or offers that constitute, or would reasonably be expected to result in, a Purchase Transaction, or participate in any discussions and negotiations with respect thereto or take any other action to facilitate the making of any such inquiries, proposals, or offers, (ii) approve or recommend, or publicly propose to approve or recommend, a Purchase Transaction, or (iii) enter into any merger agreement, letter of intent or other agreement providing for or relating to a Purchase Transaction (except for a confidentiality agreement that contains provisions that are no less favorable in the aggregate to the Seller than those contained in the Confidentiality Agreement (an “Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement”)), or (iv) enter into any agreement requiring the Seller to abandon, terminate or fail to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(b) For purposes of this Section 8.8, the term “Purchase Transaction” means (i) any direct or indirect acquisition, whether by purchase, merger, consolidation, stock sale (primary or secondary) or any other structure which would effectively result in a third party having control over the Seller’s EDC Business, the Purchased Assets, or any part thereof, in either one or a series of transactions; or (ii) any arrangement whereby effective operating control of Seller’s EDC Business, the Purchased Assets, or any part thereof, is granted to a third party.

The Seller shall promptly notify Buyer in the event it receives a proposal with respect to a Purchase Transaction, including the material terms and conditions thereof, and shall keep Buyer reasonably apprised as to the status and any material developments, discussions and negotiations concerning the same.

(d) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, at any time prior to Closing, (i) if the Seller receives a bona fide written proposal with respect to a Purchase Transaction which the Board of Directors (or any committee thereof) determines in good faith, after consultation with its independent financial advisor and legal counsel, that such Purchase Transaction is a Superior Proposal (after giving effect to all of the adjustments which may be definitively offered by Buyer pursuant to Section 8.8(d)(ii)) the Board of Directors (or any such committee) may terminate this Agreement to enter into a definitive agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal; provided, however, that the Board of Directors may not terminate the Agreement to enter into a definitive agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal that relates exclusively to an acquisition of the EDC Business or the Purchased Assets unless:

(i) the Seller shall have provided prior written notice to Buyer at least five calendar days in advance (the “Notice Period”), of its intention to terminate this Agreement in response to such Superior Proposal, which notice shall specify the terms and conditions of any such Superior Proposal (including the identity of the party making such Superior Proposal), and shall have contemporaneously provided a copy of the relevant proposed transaction agreements with the party making such Superior Proposal; and

(b) If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 12.1(c), then the parties shall be released of any and all further Obligations each to the other hereunder, except for any indemnities and other Obligations which specifically survive the termination of this Agreement, and the Non-Defaulting Party shall be entitled to pursue any right or remedy available to such party, in law or in equity, as a result of such Default.

(c) If this Agreement is terminated by Seller pursuant to Section 8.8 and Seller consummates a Purchase Transaction within three (3) months of such termination, then on the date of consummation of such Purchase Transaction, Seller shall pay Buyer $50,000 (the “Break-Up Fee”). In addition, the Seller shall pay to Buyer an amount in cash (without interest) equal to the amount of reasonable, documented, out-of-pocket outside legal fees and expenses actually incurred by Buyer in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby not to exceed $25,000 in the aggregate, payable by Seller to Buyer by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated in writing by Buyer, within five (5) calendar days after written request therefor from Buyer after termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.8, together with a reasonably detailed invoice from Buyer’s outside legal counsel evidencing such legal fees and expenses.

(d) The Seller’s Obligations under this Agreement are unique, and each party hereby expressly acknowledges that, in the event of a Default in the full and timely performance and satisfaction of any such Obligations, it would be extremely difficult to measure the resulting damages. Accordingly, in the event of any Default by the Seller, then Buyer shall be entitled, in addition to all other rights and remedies which it may have at law or in equity, to sue for and receive the remedy of specific performance, and the Seller hereby waives the defense that a remedy in damages is adequate.

(a) Seller shall be responsible for and pay all liabilities, accounts payable and other Obligations which arose in connection with the Purchased Assets and the operation of Seller’s EDC Business up until, but not including the Closing Date, except for the Assumed Liabilities.

(b) Buyer shall be responsible for and pay all Assumed Liabilities and all other liabilities, accounts payable and other Obligations which first arose in connection with the Purchased Assets on or after the Closing Date.

(c) In the event, subsequent to the Closing, Buyer shall receive a written demand to pay an Obligation from a third party arising from a transaction related to the Purchased Assets prior to the Closing Date which is not part of the Assumed Liabilities, then Buyer may immediately notify Seller in writing of such fact, indicating the nature and amount of such outstanding Obligation, and Seller shall pay, satisfy (by bonding or otherwise) or dispute such outstanding Obligation within thirty (30) days of receipt of such written notice from Buyer. In the event Seller neither: (i) notifies Buyer within such thirty (30) day period that Seller disputes such demand; nor (ii) pays or satisfies (by bonding or otherwise) such outstanding Obligation which affects Buyer’s business within the thirty (30) day period referred to above, Buyer shall have the right, but not the obligation, to pay or otherwise satisfy such Obligation and if so paid, to deliver written notice to Seller, together with evidence of the payment of said Obligation reasonably acceptable to Seller, requesting reimbursement for same and Seller hereby agrees to deliver to Buyer such reimbursement sums within thirty (30) days of such written demand.

(a) Non-Solicitation Covenants. As a material consideration and inducement to the Buyer to enter into this Agreement and purchase the Purchased Assets, and in order to protect the Buyer’s legitimate business interests, Seller hereby covenants and agrees that, for a period of two (2) years from the Closing Date, Seller shall not in the clinical trial market operate, organize, maintain, establish, manage, own, or participate in, or in any manner whatsoever, for itself or through any other Person affiliated with Seller, any business or venture anywhere in the world which is engaged in the EDC Business as currently conducted by Seller and with the current functionality of such EDC Business; provided, however, that the restrictive covenant set forth in this Section 13.2(a) shall not in any respect restrict Seller from (i) operating or further developing or expanding its cardiac safety business or ePro business and any other new businesses (other than new businesses which are engaged solely in the EDC Business as currently conducted by Seller and with the current functionality of such EDC Business) in any manner whatsoever, including without limitation, jointly marketing and selling its cardiac safety business or ePro business and any other new businesses with any other Person who may offer any service or product competitive with the EDC Business or itself developing electronic data capture functionality within its cardiac safety business or ePro business and any new businesses or (ii) entering into a merger or other business combination transaction with any third party

that is engaged in the EDC Business, and the covenant contained in this Section 13.2(a) shall terminate and be of no further force or effect upon the consummation of any such merger or other business combination transaction.

(b) Injunctive Relief. In view of the irreparable harm and damage which would occur to the Buyer as a result of a breach or a threatened breach by Seller of the covenants and agreements under Section 13.2(a) hereof (collectively, the “Restrictive Covenants”), and in view of the lack of an adequate remedy at law to protect the Buyer from such a breach or threatened breach, the Buyer shall have the right to seek a temporary injunction enjoining Seller from any violation of the Restrictive Covenants. The foregoing remedy shall be in addition to, and not in limitation of, any other rights or remedies to which the Buyer is or may be entitled at law or in equity under this Agreement.

(c) Reasonableness of Restrictions. Seller hereby acknowledges that it has carefully read and considered the provisions of the Restrictive Covenants and, having done so, agrees that the Restrictive Covenants are fair and reasonable and are reasonably required for the protection of the legitimate business interests of the Buyer with respect to the EDC Business and the Purchased Assets. For purposes of the covenant not to compete set forth in Section 13.2(a) above, Seller acknowledges that the business of the Buyer and its Affiliates is conducted throughout the world. Seller acknowledges and agrees that the Restrictive Covenants do not unreasonably oppress or impair the ability of Seller to conduct any unrelated business. The parties hereto agree that if a court of competent jurisdiction holds any of the Restrictive Covenants unenforceable with respect to: (i) any geographic area; (ii) any part of the time period covered by such Restrictive Covenants; (iii) any activity or capacity covered by such Restrictive Covenants; or (iv) any other term or provision of such Restrictive Covenants, the court shall substitute an enforceable covenant that preserves, to the maximum lawful extent, the scope, duration and all other aspects of the Restrictive Covenants deemed unenforceable, and the covenant substituted by the court shall be immediately enforceable against Seller.

13.3 Enforcement of Rights. At all times after Closing, upon request from Buyer, Seller will take all reasonable actions to enforce the provisions of any employment, independent contractor or other Contract to which Seller is a party to the extent that Buyer deems it necessary for the protection of Buyer’s rights to the Intellectual Property or any other rights acquired by Buyer hereunder, including Seller’s rights under any non-competition, non-solicitation, non-disclosure, assignment of invention and similar agreements.

13.4 Covenant Not To Sue or Assert Rights. Seller hereby covenants not to sue Buyer, its Affiliates or their successors, assignees or licensees, from and after the Closing Date, for infringement of any Products set forth on Schedule 6.11(h) or any Intellectual Property related thereto. Seller shall not assert rights, from and after the Closing Date, in any Products set forth on Schedule 6.11(h), or any Intellectual Property related thereto, against Buyer, its Affiliates or their successors, assignees or licensees.

13.5 Survival. The terms and provision of this Article XIII shall survive Closing.

14.1 Confidentiality Obligations of Buyer and Seller Prior To Closing. Any Proprietary Information (as defined in the Confidentiality Agreement) exchanged by or otherwise disclosed between or among the parties shall be subject to the Confidentiality Agreement; provided, that, from and after the Closing, any Proprietary Information relating exclusively to the

EDC Business and the Purchased Assets transferred by Seller to Buyer hereunder shall become the sole property of Buyer and Seller shall have no right to assert at any time after the Closing Date that such Proprietary Information is still proprietary to Seller and all restrictions imposed upon Buyer pursuant to the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement on or with respect to such Proprietary Information shall become null and void as of the Closing Date.

14.2 Survival. The terms and provisions of this Article XIV shall survive Closing and the earlier termination of this Agreement.

15.1 Seller’s Obligation to Indemnify. Seller hereby agrees to defend and indemnify Buyer and its Affiliates and subsidiaries and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and representatives, and the successors and assigns of each of them (collectively, the “Buyer Indemnified Parties”) and Seller does hereby agree to hold the Buyer Indemnified Parties forever harmless, from and against any and all Claims made, brought or asserted against the Buyer Indemnified Parties, or any one of them, and Seller hereby agrees to pay or reimburse the Buyer Indemnified Parties for any and all Claims payable by any of the Buyer Indemnified Parties to any Person, including reasonable attorneys’ and paralegals’ fees and expenses, court costs, settlement amounts, costs of investigation and interest thereon from the time such amounts are due at the highest non-usurious rate of interest permitted by applicable Law, through all negotiations, mediations, arbitrations, trial and appellate levels, arising from or as a result of:

(a) any misrepresentation, breach or failure of any warranty or representation made by Seller in this Agreement or in any of the Transaction Ancillary Documents;

(b) any failure or refusal by Seller to satisfy or perform any covenant, term or condition of this Agreement to be satisfied or performed by Seller;

(d) any third party Claims (other than the Assumed Liabilities) of any nature or kind whatsoever, whether accrued, absolute, contingent or otherwise, against or affecting Buyer or the Purchased Assets arising from or in connection with the conduct of the EDC Business or the ownership or use of the Purchased Assets before the Closing Date.

15.2 Buyer’s Obligation to Indemnify. Buyer hereby agrees to defend and indemnify Seller and its Affiliates and subsidiaries and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and representatives, and the successors and assigns of each of them (collectively, the “Seller Indemnified Parties”) and Buyer does hereby agree to hold the Seller Indemnified Parties forever harmless, from and against any and all Claims made, brought or asserted against the Seller Indemnified Parties, or any one of them, and Buyer hereby agrees to pay or reimburse the Seller Indemnified Parties for any and all Claims payable by any of the Seller Indemnified Parties to any Person, including reasonable attorneys’ and paralegals’ fees and expenses, court costs, settlement amounts, costs of investigation and interest thereon from the time such amounts are due at the highest non-usurious rate of interest permitted by applicable Law, through all negotiations, mediations, arbitrations, trial and appellate levels, arising from or as a result of:

(a) any misrepresentation, breach or failure of any warranty or representation made by Buyer in this Agreement or in any of the Transaction Ancillary Documents;

(b) any failure or refusal by Buyer to satisfy or perform any covenant, term or condition of this Agreement to be satisfied or performed by Buyer;

(d) any third party Claims (other than the Excluded Liabilities) of any nature or kind whatsoever, whether accrued, absolute, contingent or otherwise, against or affecting Seller arising from or in connection with the Buyer’s conduct of the EDC Business or the ownership or use of the Purchased Assets on and after the Closing Date.

15.3 Survival of Representations and Warranties. The respective representations and warranties of the parties contained in this Agreement shall survive the Closing for a period of twelve (12) months after the Closing; provided, however, that the representations and warranties contained in Section 6.11(d) shall survive the Closing for a period of thirty-six (36) months after the Closing and the representations and warranties contained in Sections 6.2, 6.5 and 7.8 hereof shall survive indefinitely. Any claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 15.1(a) or 15.2(a) with respect to any representations or warranties made hereunder other than Sections 6.2, 6.5, 6.11(d) or 7.8 hereof must be made, if at all, within such twelve-month period, and provided that any Claims pursuant to Section 6.11(d) must be brought, if at all, within 36 months.

15.4 Survival of Indemnity Obligations. The terms and provisions of this Article XV shall survive the Closing and shall survive the earlier termination of this Agreement.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the aggregate liability of the Seller under this Agreement, including this Article XV, shall not in any event exceed $500,000 in the aggregate, and the aggregate liability of Buyer under this Agreement, including this Article XV, shall not in any event exceed $500,000 in the aggregate.

(b) If Seller has any obligation to indemnify Buyer under this Article XV, Seller shall be permitted to satisfy such obligation, in whole or in part, by delivering to Buyer shares of Buyer Stock which, for such purposes, shall be valued at the average closing price thereof on any national securities exchange on which such shares are then listed for trading or quoted or, if such shares are not so listed or quoted, at the average of the bid and ask prices on any over-the-counter market on which such shares are then quoted, in each case for the twenty (20) trading day period preceding either the Closing Date or the date on which Seller makes such payment, whichever is greater.

15.6 Procedures for Indemnification. The following procedures shall be applicable with respect to indemnification arising in connection with any provision of this Agreement:

(a) Notice of Claim. The party entitled to indemnification hereunder (the “Indemnitee”) agrees that, upon its obtaining knowledge of facts indicating that there may be a basis for a claim for indemnity under the provisions of this Agreement, including receipt by it of notice of any such claim, judicial or otherwise, with respect to any matter as to which it may be entitled to indemnity under the provisions of this Agreement, it will give prompt notice thereof to the party having the obligation to indemnify under this Agreement (the “Indemnitor”), which notice shall include all information relating to such matter as the Indemnitee shall then have, including, a copy of any written claim or other notice received by the Indemnitee.

(b) Defense of Claims. Promptly upon receipt of notice of a claim for indemnity as required by Section 15.6(a), the Indemnitor shall assume and control the defense of any such Claim and the payment of expenses related thereto in good faith and with counsel reasonably experienced in the field relating to the Claim. The parties agree that: (i) the Indemnitor will not be liable for any settlement of any Claim effected by the Indemnitee without the Indemnitor’s express prior written consent, which consent may not be unreasonably conditioned, withheld or delayed; (ii) the Indemnitor will not settle any Claim without the express prior written consent of the Indemnitee, which consent may not be unreasonably conditioned, withheld or delayed, provided, however, that no such consent shall be required so long as the Indemnitee does not incur any Obligation of any nature or kind in connection with such settlement and Indemnitee is fully and forever released of all liability in connection therewith (if any such settlement is effected without the Indemnitee’s consent, the Indemnitor shall promptly provide to Indemnitee true and complete copies of such settlement); and (iii) the Indemnitee may elect to employ separate counsel and participate in the defense of any such Claim, but in such event, the Indemnitee will be responsible for the fees and expenses of such separate counsel, except that in the event the Indemnitor has failed to promptly and adequately assume the defense of such claim in good faith and use reasonably experienced counsel in the relevant field as required by this Agreement, then the Indemnitor shall be responsible for the fees and expenses of any counsel employed by Indemnitee and all other costs and expenses associated with the Claim and the defense thereof. If requested by the Indemnitor, the Indemnitee agrees to cooperate with the Indemnitor and its counsel in reasonably contesting any Claim or, if appropriate, in making any counterclaim against the Person asserting the Claim, or any cross-complaint against any Person and the Indemnitee further agrees to take such other action as may reasonably be requested by the Indemnitor or its counsel to reduce or eliminate any Claim for which the Indemnitor would have responsibility hereunder. The Indemnitor agrees to reimburse the Indemnitee for any reasonable expenses incurred in so cooperating or acting at the request of the Indemnitor or its counsel. In the event that Seller is the Indemnitor and the Claim involves Intellectual Property, Buyer shall grant Seller reasonable access to the Intellectual Property and the relevant and key personnel of Buyer.

16.1 Restrictions on Transfer; No Right to Require Registration. Seller acknowledges and agrees that the Buyer Stock being received by Seller as part of the Purchase Price has not been registered under the Securities Act, or under relevant state securities Laws and, therefore, it cannot be sold, pledged, assigned, transferred or otherwise disposed of unless it is subsequently registered under the Securities Act and/or under relevant state securities Laws or an exemption from such registration is available. Seller further understands that as a result of the foregoing restrictions, it must bear the economic risk of holding the Buyer Stock for an indefinite period of time until the Buyer Stock is registered under the Securities Act, or an exemption from registration thereunder is available. Further, the Seller understands and acknowledges that it has no right to require Buyer to register the Buyer Stock under the Securities Act or relevant state securities Laws.

16.2 Investment Intent. As a material inducement to Buyer to enter into, execute and deliver this Agreement and for Buyer to issue the Buyer Stock as required hereunder, Seller hereby represents and warrants that Seller is acquiring the Buyer Stock solely for the account of Seller for investment purposes only and not with a view for distribution or resale to others. Seller further represents and warrants that Seller will not, directly or indirectly, offer, sell, transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate or

otherwise dispose of (“Transfer”) the Buyer Stock, unless: (i) the Transfer is pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act; or (ii) no such registration is required because of the availability of an exemption from registration under the Securities Act, or such shares are sold in compliance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act.

16.3 Sophistication. Seller hereby represents and warrants that it has knowledge and experience in financial and business matters in general and is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment in the Buyer Stock.

16.4 Reliance on Representations. Seller acknowledges and understands that Buyer will be relying on the accuracy and completeness of all matters set forth in this Article XVI, and the Seller represents and warrants to the Buyer that the representations, warranties, acknowledgments, covenants and agreements set forth in this Article XVI are complete, true and correct and may be relied upon by them in determining whether the offer and sale of the Buyer Stock to the Seller is exempt from registration under the Securities Act and relevant state securities Laws.

16.5 Lock Up Agreement. The parties hereby agree that the Buyer Stock issued to Seller as part of the Purchase Price under this Agreement shall be subject to an agreement restricting the Transfer of the Buyer Stock in the form attached hereto as Exhibit “C” (the “Lock Up Agreement”).

16.6 Certificates to Bear a Legend The Seller understands that each certificate representing the Buyer Stock will bear a legend on the face thereof (or on the reverse thereof with a reference to such legend on the face thereof) as follows:

“THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”), OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS. SUCH SHARES MAY NOT BE SOLD OR OFFERED FOR SALE IN THE ABSENCE OF REGISTRATION UNDER THE ACT OR THE AVAILABILITY OF AN EXEMPTION FROM SUCH ACT AND ALL APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS AND AGREEMENTS AS SET FORTH IN A LOCK-UP AGREEMENT ENTERED INTO BY THE REGISTERED OWNER OF THESE SHARES, A COPY OF WHICH IS ON FILE AT THE PRINCIPAL OFFICE OF OMNICOMM SYSTEMS, INC., A DELAWARE CORPORATION (THE “COMPANY”) AND WILL BE FURNISHED BY THE COMPANY TO THE HOLDER HEREOF WITHOUT CHARGE UPON THE WRITTEN REQUEST OF THE HOLDER HEREOF TO THE COMPANY.”

17.1 Sums Unpaid Under Assumed Contracts at Closing. All sums unpaid as of Closing under any of the Assumed Contracts shall be prorated as of the Closing Date, with sums unpaid as of the Closing Date belonging to Buyer. Subject to the provisions below, regardless of whether or not invoices were sent by Seller for any sums due under Assumed Contracts before Closing, Seller shall be entitled to all sums unpaid as of Closing under the Assumed Contracts for services rendered or performed by Seller during the period prior to the Closing, and Buyer shall be entitled to all sums unpaid as of Closing under the Assumed Contracts for services rendered or performed (or to be rendered or performed) by Buyer from the Closing Date and thereafter. The parties agree that to the extent any payment or other amount is received by any party hereto after the Closing

Date from a party to an Assumed Contract in payment of an amount unpaid as of Closing, then: (i) to the extent the correspondence accompanying such amount sufficiently indentifies the services for which such payment or amount applies and the party who performed such services, such amount received shall be paid to the party hereto performing such services; or (ii) to the extent the correspondence does not identify the services for which such payment or amount applies and/or the party who performed such services, or the payment or amount is not accompanied by any correspondence, the receiving party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to identify the services to which the payment or amount applies and who performed such services by, among other efforts, contacting the customer transmitting the payment or amount and apply or otherwise transmit such payment or amount to the party hereto performing the services. Any funds under an Assumed Contract in payment of an amount unpaid as of Closing that are received by Seller after Closing and belonging entirely to Buyer shall be endorsed by Seller to Buyer and transmitted to Buyer within five (5) days of Seller’s receipt thereof, and any funds under an Assumed Contract in payment of an amount unpaid as of Closing that are received by Buyer after Closing and belonging entirely to Seller shall be promptly endorsed by Buyer to Seller and transmitted to Seller within five (5) days of Buyer’s receipt thereof. Any funds under an Assumed Contract in payment of an amount unpaid as of Closing that are received by Seller or Buyer after Closing and belonging in part to Seller and in part to Buyer shall be promptly deposited by the receiving party and the part thereof belonging to Buyer or Seller, as applicable, shall be paid by the receiving party to Buyer or Seller, as applicable, within five (5) days of such sums clearing in the receiving party’s account, and the balance shall be retained by the receiving party. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, Seller shall not be entitled to any credit for accrued but unpaid (and uncollected) sums due under Assumed Contracts. From and after the Closing, provided that Seller provides Buyer with reasonable prior written notice (which notice shall include reasonable detail of the collection amounts at issue and the collection efforts anticipated to be taken by Seller plans), Seller shall have the right to contact, in a commercially reasonable manner, any party to any Assumed Contract to collect the sums owed to Seller pursuant to this Section 17.1. With respect to any such collections, Buyer shall supply contact information to Seller about such parties to Assumed Contracts from whom Seller is trying to collect sums. The terms and provisions of this Section 17.1 shall survive the Closing.

17.2 Audits. Each of Seller and Buyer shall maintain records sufficient to enable accurate calculation of payments it collects but due to the other party under Section 17.1. Each of Buyer and Seller (in such capacity, and “Inspecting Party”) shall have the right, at the Inspecting Party’s own expense and not more than once in any calendar quarter, to have an independent, certified public accountant selected by the Inspecting Party and reasonably acceptable to the other (an “Inspected Party”), review the records of the Inspected Party in a single location where such records are maintained by the Inspected Party or are brought to by Inspected Party, upon reasonable notice (which shall be no less than 5 days prior written notice) and on such date and at such time as shall be agreed by the Inspected Party, for the purpose of verifying the basis and accuracy of the payments required to be made under Section 17.1 to the Inspecting Party. If the inspection leads to a discovery by the accountant of a discrepancy to the Inspecting Party’s detriment, the Inspected Party shall pay the amount of the discrepancy within 10 days of the Inspected Party’s agreement with the findings of the inspection, and in the event such discrepancy exceeds 10% of any amounts that should have been paid to the Inspecting Party at the time of such audit, then the Inspected Party shall reimburse the Inspecting Party for the reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of such audit. The terms and provisions of this Section 17.2 shall survive the Closing.

17.3 Expenses. All costs and expenses of preparing, obtaining and filing and recording (if necessary) any Consents required for assignment of all Assumed Contracts as may be required to assign and transfer same to Buyer shall be paid by

Seller. Any and all transfer, documentary, sales, stamp, registration and other such Taxes, and all conveyance fees, recording charges and other fees and charges (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be paid by the party incurring such Tax when due, and the applicable party will, at its own expense, file all necessary Tax returns and other documentation with respect to all such Taxes, fees and charges. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Section 17.3 or elsewhere in this Agreement, whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, all costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement will be borne by the party incurring the same.

18.1 Notices. All notices of request, demand and other communications hereunder shall be addressed to the parties as follows:

unless the address or any other information listed above is changed by the party by like notice given to the other parties; provided, however, that notwithstanding the following sentence, no notice of any change in the address or other information listed above shall be deemed given unless and until actually received by the party charges with notice thereof.

Any notice hand delivered after 5:00 p.m., EST, shall be deemed delivered on the following business day. Notwithstanding the foregoing, notice, requests or demands or other communications referred to in this Agreement may be sent by facsimile (with receipt confirmed in writing on the sender’s facsimile machine) or other method of delivery, including electronic transmission, but shall be deemed to have been given only when confirmed received by the other party.

18.2 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including the Exhibits and Schedules attached hereto and the documents delivered pursuant hereto, together with the Confidentiality Agreement, set forth all the promises, covenants, agreements, conditions and understandings between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersede all prior and contemporaneous agreements, understandings, inducements or conditions, expressed or implied, oral or written, except for the Confidentiality Agreement or as otherwise herein contained.

18.3 Assignment. Neither Seller nor Buyer may assign or transfer its interests in this Agreement, or delegate its duties hereunder, without the prior written consent of the other party hereto.

18.4 Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon the parties hereto, their respective successors and permitted assigns.

18.5 Amendment. The parties hereby irrevocably agree that no attempted amendment, modification, or change of this Agreement shall be valid and effective, unless the parties shall unanimously agree in writing to such amendment, modification or change.

18.6 No Waiver. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective, unless it is in writing and signed by the party against whom it is asserted, and any such written waiver shall only be applicable to the specific instance to which it relates and shall not be deemed to be a continuing or future waiver.

18.7 Gender and Use of Singular and Plural. All pronouns shall be deemed to refer to the masculine, feminine, neuter, singular or plural, as the identity of the party or parties or their personal representatives, successors and assigns may require.

18.8 Counterparts. This Agreement and any amendments hereto may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument.

18.9 Headings. The article and section headings contained in this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of the Agreement.

18.10 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with the Laws of the State of Delaware and any proceeding arising between the parties in any manner pertaining or related to this Agreement shall, to the extent permitted by law, be held in the State of Delaware.

18.11 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

18.12 Further Assurances. The parties hereto will execute and deliver such further instruments and do such further acts and things as may be reasonably required to carry out the intent and purposes of this Agreement.

18.13 Prevailing Party. If any party hereto is required to engage in litigation or any other Proceeding against any other party hereto, either as a plaintiff, as defendant or otherwise, in order to enforce or defend any rights under this Agreement and such litigation or other Proceeding results in a final judgment or other adjudication in favor of such party (“Prevailing Party”), then the party or parties against whom said final judgment or other adjudication is obtained shall be liable to and reimburse the Prevailing Party for all direct, indirect or incidental expenses incurred in such litigation, including all reasonable attorneys’ fees, paralegals’ fees, court costs and other expenses incurred throughout all negotiations, trials or appeals undertaken in order to enforce the Prevailing Party’s rights hereunder.

18.15 Joint Preparation. The preparation of this Agreement has been a joint effort of the parties and the resulting documents shall not, solely as a matter of judicial construction, be construed more severely against one of the parties than the other.

18.16 Severability. If any one of the provisions contained in this Agreement, for any reason, shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Agreement, and this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and be construed as if the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be executed as of the date and year set forth above.
