If any Consent is not obtained, or if an attempted assignment would be ineffective or would adversely affect the rights of Seller under any such Purchased Asset, contract, claim or right or any benefit arising thereunder so that Buyer would not in fact receive all such rights, Seller shall reasonably cooperate with Buyer in a mutually agreeable arrangement under which Buyer would obtain the benefits and assume the post-Closing obligations thereunder in accordance with this Agreement, including subcontracting, sub-licensing, or subleasing to Buyer, or under which Seller would enforce for the benefit of Buyer, with Buyer assuming Seller’s obligations, any and all rights of Seller against a third party thereto.

2.08. Post-Closing Purchase Price Adjustment.

(a) General. As an adjustment to the Purchase Price, Seller shall pay Buyer the amount, if any, by which Reference Net Asset Value exceeds the Closing Net Asset Value.

(b) Definitions. The following terms, as used herein, have the following meanings:

“Closing Balance Sheet” means a balance sheet for the Business, prepared in a manner consistent with the audited financial statements referenced in Section 5.06 and in accordance with GAAP (except as otherwise stated therein and except for the omission of other financial statements and footnotes), excluding Excluded Assets and Excluded Liabilities, as of the close of business on the day immediately preceding the Closing Date. The Closing Balance Sheet will present fairly, in all material respects, the financial condition of the Business as of such date, and will be prepared from the books and records of the Seller on a basis consistent with the method by which the Reference Statement was prepared. The Closing Balance Sheet will contain those line items set forth on Schedule 2.08(b).

“Closing Net Asset Value” means that dollar amount as is equal to the dollar amount of the Purchased Assets (and excluding Excluded Assets), as reflected on the Closing Balance Sheet, less the dollar amount of the Assumed Liabilities (and excluding Excluded Liabilities), as reflected on the Closing Balance Sheet.

“Reference Net Asset Value” means $0.

(c) Preparation of Closing Balance Sheet. As promptly as practicable after the Closing Date, but not later than seventy-one (71) days after the Closing Date, Seller will provide to the Buyer the Closing Balance Sheet and the calculation of Closing Net Asset Value.

(d) Disagreement by Buyer. If Buyer disagrees with Seller’s calculation of Closing Net Asset Value, Buyer may, within thirty (30) days after receipt of the documents referred to in Section 2.08(c), deliver a notice to Seller disagreeing with such calculation, a reasonably detailed explanation of the reasons for such disagreement and setting forth Buyer’s calculation of the Closing Balance Sheet and Closing Net Asset Value. Any such notice of disagreement shall specify those items or amounts as to which Buyer disagrees and Buyer shall be deemed to have agreed with all other items and amounts contained in the Closing Balance Sheet.

(e) Dispute Resolution. If a notice of disagreement shall have been delivered by Buyer pursuant to Section 2.08(d), the Parties shall, during the thirty (30) days following said delivery, use their best efforts to reach agreement on the disputed items or amounts in order to determine the Closing Net Asset Value. If, during such period, the Parties are unable to reach agreement, they shall promptly thereafter cause the Accounting Referee promptly to review this

Agreement and the disputed items or amounts for the purpose of calculating Closing Net Asset Value. In making such calculation, the Accounting Referee shall consider only those items or amounts in the Closing Balance Sheet as to which Buyer has disagreed. The Accounting Referee shall deliver to Seller and Buyer, as promptly as practicable, a report setting forth such calculation. Such report shall be final and binding upon the Parties hereto. The cost of such review and report shall be borne (i) by Buyer if Seller’s calculation of Closing Net Asset Value is closer to the final calculation of Closing Net Asset Value determined by the Accounting Referee than Buyer’s calculation thereof, (ii) by Seller if the reverse is true and (iii) otherwise equally by Buyer and Seller.

(f) Cooperation. The Parties hereto agree that they will, cooperate and assist in the preparation of the Closing Balance Sheet and the calculation of Closing Net Asset Value.

(g) Time of Payment. Any payment pursuant to this Section 2.08 shall be made at a mutually convenient time and place (i) within thirty (30) days after delivery by Seller of the documents referred to in Section 2.08(c) if no notice of disagreement with respect to Closing Net Asset Value is delivered by Buyer within the thirty (30) day period described above in Section 2.08(d) or (ii) if a notice of disagreement with respect to Closing Net Asset Value is so delivered then within ten (10) days after the earlier of (A) agreement between the parties pursuant to Section 2.08(e) with respect to Closing Net Asset Value and (B) delivery of the calculation of Closing Net Asset Value by the Accounting Referee pursuant to Section 2.08(e).

(h) Method of Payment. Any payments pursuant to this Section 2.08 shall be made by delivery by Seller, or Buyer, as the case may be, of a certified or official bank check payable in funds to Buyer or Seller, as the case may be, or by causing such payments to be credited to such account of Seller or Buyer as may be designated by Seller or Buyer. The amount of any payment to be made pursuant to this Section 2.08 shall bear interest from and including the Closing Date to but excluding the date of payment at a rate per annum equal to the rate publicly announced from time to time by Citibank N.A. as its base or prime rate in New York City in effect from time to time during the period from the Closing Date to the date of payment. Such interest shall be payable at the same time as the payment to which it relates and shall be calculated daily on the basis of a year of 365 days and the actual number of days for which due.

2.09. British Telecom Adjustment.

(a) Determination of British Telecom Adjustment.

(i) Within one hundred twenty (120) days after the first anniversary of the Closing Date, the Buyer will deliver to Seller a certificate (the “BT Certificate”) executed by the Buyer setting forth the First Year BT Contract Revenue.

(ii) If the Seller objects in good faith to any one or more matters set forth in the BT Certificate, Seller shall deliver written notice (the “Disputed Items Notice”) to the Buyer within thirty (30) days after receipt by the Seller of the BT Certificate, stating that the Seller objects to any items in the BT Certificate, specifying in reasonable detail the basis for such objection and setting forth the Seller’s proposed modification to the BT Certificate. Thereafter,

the Buyer and Seller will attempt to resolve and finally determine and agree upon the First Year BT Contract Revenue as promptly as practicable.

(iii) If the Buyer and the Seller are unable to agree upon the First Year BT Contract Revenue within thirty (30) days after delivery of the Disputed Items Notice, they shall refer the matter to the Accounting Referee to resolve the items set forth in the Disputed Items Notice (the “Disputed Items”). The Accounting Referee will (i) resolve the Disputed Items and (ii) make a determination of the First Year BT Contract Revenue using the calculations set forth in the BT Certificate, as modified only by the Accounting Referee’s resolution of the Disputed Items. The determination of the Accounting Referee will be made within sixty (60) days after being selected and will be final and binding on the Parties. The fees, costs and expenses of the Accounting Referee will be borne by the Party whose positions generally did not prevail in such determination, as determined by such Accounting Referee, or if the Accounting Referee determines that neither party could be fairly found to be the prevailing party, then such fees, costs and expenses will be borne 50% by the Buyer and 50% by the Seller.

(iv) If the Seller does not deliver the Disputed Item Notice to the Buyer within thirty (30) days after receipt by the Seller of the BT Certificate, the First Year BT Contract Revenue specified in the BT Certificate will be conclusively presumed to be true and correct in all respects and will be final and binding upon the parties.

(v) At such time as the First Year BT Contract Revenue is finally determined, the Seller shall pay the Buyer an aggregate amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Target First Year BT Contract Revenue over the First Year BT Contract Revenue.

(b) Renewal of BT Contract. In the event that Seller has not finalized a renewal of the BT Contract on or prior to the Closing Date, Buyer shall use its reasonable best efforts, consistent with Seller’s past practices, to negotiate and execute an amendment, modification, supplement, renewal, extension, restatement or replacement (a “BT Amendment”) of the BT Contract on terms that provide for the receipt of BT Revenues in the Measurement Period at least equal to the Target First Year BT Contract Revenue; provided, however, that in the event that Buyer uses such reasonable best efforts, and British Telecommunications plc or one or more of its Affiliates declines to execute a BT Amendment, Buyer shall be entitled to receive the amount provided in Section 2.09(a)(v) in accordance with the terms hereof; and provided, further, that in the event Buyer fails to use such reasonable best efforts, Seller shall have no obligation to make any payment to Buyer under Section 2.09(a)(v).

(c) Operation of Buyer under BT Contract. Following the Closing, Buyer shall use its reasonable best efforts, consistent with Seller’s past practices, to (a) maintain the BT Contract in full force and effect and (b) provide services under the BT Contract in a manner that (i) is consistent with the requirements of the BT Contract and (ii) is designed to maximize the receipt by Buyer of revenues under the BT Contract during the BT Measurement Period. Buyer shall not breach or fail to perform any of its material obligations under the BT Contract.

(d) Information. Buyer will furnish monthly and quarterly reports, within twenty (20) days after each month and three-month period during the Measurement Period, containing the calculation of BT Revenues for each such monthly and three-month period.

Buyer will also furnish other information relating to the Buyer’s relationship with British Telecom and Buyer’s operations under the BT Contract, as Seller may from time to time reasonably request.

(e) Inspection. Buyer will permit the Seller and its advisors, on reasonable notice and during normal business hours, and in a manner not unduly disruptive to the operations of the Buyer, to visit and inspect any of the properties of the Buyer, to examine its books, records and other materials relating thereto (and to make copies thereof and take extracts therefrom) and to discuss its affairs, finances and accounts with Buyer’s personnel, in each case only as the same pertains to the BT Contract.

(f) Breach. If Buyer breaches any of its material obligations under the BT Contract during the first year thereof, the Target First Year BT Contract Revenue shall be deemed to be reduced by the amount of recognizable revenue Buyer does not receive as a result of such breach.

(g) Exclusive Remedy. This Section 2.09 shall be the exclusive remedy of Buyer for monetary damages relating to any failure by Buyer or Seller to enter into a BT Amendment or any claim relating to a loss of revenue under the BT Contract or the failure of Buyer to realize revenue following the Closing under the BT Contract.

2.10. Allocation of Purchase Price.

(a) Schedule 2.10 sets forth the methodology for allocating the purchase price among the Purchased Assets and the Assumed Liabilities (for purposes of this Section 2.10, the “Purchase Price”). The Parties shall mutually agree upon an allocation of the Purchase Price within thirty (30) days after Closing to reflect the agreed value of the Purchased Assets and the book value of the Assumed Liabilities as of the Closing Date (the “Allocation Statement”).

(b) Seller and Buyer agree to report the purchase of the Purchased Assets and the assumption of the book value of the Assumed Liabilities in a manner entirely consistent with the Allocation Statement, and agree to act in accordance with such Allocation Statement in the preparation of financial statements and filing of all tax returns (including filing Form 8594 with its Federal income tax return for the taxable year that includes the date of the Closing) and in the course of any tax audit, tax review or tax litigation relating thereto.

(c) No later than (10) days prior to the filing of their respective Forms 8594 relating to this transaction, each Party shall deliver to the other Party a copy of its Form 8594.

2.11. Accounts Receivable. Seller shall promptly transfer and deliver to Buyer any cash or other property which it may receive on or after the Closing Date in respect of the Accounts Receivable, from customers of the Business, prior to applying any such cash or other property to accounts receivable of any division or business of Seller.

2.12. Transfer of IP Assets. Seller shall deliver the tangible, including electronic, embodiments of all elements of intellectual property rights, materials and Technology that are Seller Intellectual Property (such tangible, including electronic, embodiments collectively, the “Intellectual Property Assets”) through the transfer of facilities, personal property contained

therein, and Transferred Employees prior to or at Closing. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, with respect to any Intellectual Property Assets that, through inadvertence or for any other reason, are not delivered via the transfer of facilities, personal property contained therein, and Transferred Employees, Seller shall promptly deliver, at no charge, such assets following the Closing to those locations reasonably designated by Buyer. If Seller discovers Intellectual Property Assets that were required to be, but were not, delivered to Buyer prior to or at Closing, Seller shall promptly inform Buyer of any such error and promptly deliver, at no charge, all such Intellectual Property Assets to those locations reasonably designated by Buyer. If Buyer discovers that it did not receive any of the Intellectual Property Assets that were required to be delivered, Seller shall promptly deliver, at no charge, such Intellectual Property Assets to the locations reasonably designated by Buyer upon receiving written notice thereof from Buyer.

(iv) any liabilities relating to Beckmann Claims to the extent such liabilities relate to service of the EU Employees with Seller prior to Closing.

(b) Subject to the limitations set forth in this Article X, Buyer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Seller from and against any Loss to which Seller becomes subject as a result of, arising out of or based on, directly or indirectly, any of the following, or any claim alleging any of the following:

(i) any breach of any representation or warranty made by Buyer pursuant to this Agreement or any Ancillary Transfer Document;

(ii) any breach of a covenant or agreement made or to be performed by Buyer pursuant to this Agreement, any Ancillary Transfer Document; or

(iii) any Assumed Liability.

10.03. Certain Limitations.

(a) Seller shall have no obligation to indemnify or hold harmless Buyer under Section 10.02(a)(i) above, and Buyer shall have no obligation to indemnify or hold harmless Seller under Section 10.02(b)(i) above, in each case except to the extent that the aggregate amount of Losses incurred by such Indemnified Party exceeds $250,000, in which case the Indemnifying Party shall be responsible for the entire amount of such claims, subject to the other limitations in this Article X.

(b) Seller shall have no obligation to indemnify Buyer with respect to the German Pension Plan Liabilities or any claims arising under or relating to the German Pension Plan.

(c) EXCEPT IN THE CASE OF FRAUD, IN NO EVENT SHALL SELLER’S CUMULATIVE LIABILITY FOR INDEMNIFICATION PAYMENTS PURSUANT TO SECTION 10.02(a)(i) OR IN RESPECT OF THE BREACH BY SELLER OF ANY COVENANT OR AGREEMENT MADE OR TO BE PERFORMED BY SELLER PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT PRIOR TO CLOSING EXCEED, IN THE AGGREGATE, $1,750,000.

(d) The limitations provided for in clauses (a) and (c) of this Section 10.03 shall not apply to any Loss arising out of any breach of the Special Representations.

(e) Seller shall not be obligated to indemnify or hold harmless Buyer with respect to any Loss that is stated as a liability on the Closing Balance Sheet to the extent of such stated liability, or for which a reserve was made on the Closing Balance Sheet to the extent of such reserve, other than those liabilities and reserves indentified in the calculation of the Closing Net Asset Value as an Excluded Liability.

(f) Seller shall have no obligation to indemnify Buyer for consequential damages, special damages, incidental damages, indirect damages, lost profits, unrealized

expectations or other similar items, nor shall any damages be calculated using a “multiplier” or any other similar method having a similar effect.

(g) In determining the foregoing thresholds and in otherwise determining the amount of any Loss for which the Buyer is entitled to assert a claim for indemnification hereunder, the amount of any such Loss shall be determined after deducting therefrom the amount of any insurance proceeds (after giving effect to any applicable deductible or retention and resulting retrospective premium adjustment) or other third party recoveries actually received by the Buyer or any subsidiary of the Buyer in respect of such Loss (which insurance proceeds the Buyer agrees to use, or to cause any subsidiary of the Buyer to use, commercially reasonable efforts to obtain) and the amount of any Tax benefit related thereto. If an indemnification payment is received by the Buyer, and the Buyer or any subsidiary of the Buyer later receives insurance proceeds, other third party recoveries or tax benefits in respect of the related Loss, the Buyer shall promptly pay to the Seller a sum equal to the lesser of (y) the actual amount of such insurance proceeds, other third party recoveries and Tax benefits or (z) the actual amount by which the indemnification payment previously paid by the Seller with respect to such Loss would have been reduced had such proceeds been collected prior to the determination thereof.

10.04. Procedure for Indemnification.

(a) Any Party making a claim for indemnification hereunder (an “Indemnified Party”) shall promptly notify the indemnifying Party (an “Indemnifying Party”) of the claim in writing, describing the claim in reasonable detail, the estimated amount thereof (to the extent known and quantifiable) , and the basis therefor; provided, that the failure to provide prompt notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations hereunder, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced by the failure to give such prompt notice.

(b) If a claim for indemnification hereunder is based on a claim by a third party, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to assume the entire control of the defense thereof, including at its own expense, employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, and, in connection therewith, the Indemnified Party shall cooperate fully with the reasonable requests of the Indemnifying Party and make available to the Indemnifying Party all pertinent information under its control reasonably requested by the Indemnifying Party; provided, that the Indemnified Party may participate in any proceeding with counsel of its choice at its expense. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume or continue to control the defense if the Indemnifying Party fails to defend the proceeding in good faith. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of a proceeding, no compromise or settlement of any such claim may be effected by the Indemnifying Party without the Indemnified Party’s consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

10.05. Remedies Exclusive. The remedies provided in this Article X, together with the remedies provided for in the Letter Agreement, shall be the exclusive remedies of the Parties hereto after the Closing for monetary damages in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (other than for fraud), including, without limitation, any breach or non-performance of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained herein. No Party

may commence any suit, action or proceeding against any other Party hereto or any of their respective Affiliates with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement, whether in contract, tort or otherwise, except to enforce such Party’s express rights under this Article X and under the Letter Agreement.

ARTICLE XI

TERMINATION

11.01. Grounds for Termination. This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing:

(a) by mutual written agreement of Seller and Buyer;

(b) by either Party if consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby would violate any nonappealable final order, decree or judgment of any court or governmental body having competent jurisdiction;

(c) by either Party if the Closing does not occur on or prior to October 31, 2007; provided that such termination right shall not be available to a Party that has failed to fulfill its obligations under this Agreement or whose acts or omissions have been a significant cause of the Closing not occurring on or before such date;

(d) by Seller, if: (A) there has been a misrepresentation or breach by Buyer of a representation or warranty contained herein such that Buyer could not deliver to Seller at Closing an accurate certificate as contemplated by Section 9.03(c), (B) Buyer has committed a material breach of any covenant imposed upon it hereunder and, if curable, fails to cure such breach within ten (10) Business Days after written notice thereof from Seller; or (C) any condition to Seller’s obligations hereunder becomes incapable of fulfillment through no fault of Seller and is not waived by Buyer; or

(e) by Buyer, if: (A) there has been a misrepresentation or breach by Seller of a representation or warranty contained herein such that Seller could not deliver to Buyer at Closing an accurate certificate as contemplated by Section 9.02(c); (B) Seller has committed a breach of any covenant imposed upon it hereunder and, if curable, fails to cure such breach within ten (10) Business Days after written notice thereof from Buyer; or (C) any condition to Buyer’s obligations hereunder becomes incapable of fulfillment through no fault of Buyer and is not waived by Seller.

The Party desiring to terminate this Agreement under clause (b), (c), (d) or (e) shall give notice of such termination to the other Parties.

11.02. Effect of Termination. If this Agreement is terminated as permitted by Section 11.01, such termination shall be without liability of any Party (or any shareholder, director, officer, employee, agent, consultant or representative of such Party) to the other Party to this Agreement; provided that if such termination shall result from the willful failure of a Party to fulfill a condition to the performance of the obligations of the other Parties or to perform a covenant of this Agreement or from a willful breach by a Party to this Agreement, such Party

or such other address or Persons as the Parties may from time to time designate in writing in the manner provided in this Section 12.01.

12.02. Amendments; Waivers.

(a) Any provisions of this Agreement may be amended or waived prior to the Closing Date if, and only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and signed, in the case of an amendment, by Buyer and Seller, or in the case of a waiver, by the Party against whom the waiver is to be effective.

(b) No failure or delay by either Party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.

12.03. Expenses. Except as otherwise provided herein, all costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement shall be paid by the Party incurring such cost or expense.

12.04. Successors and Assigns.

Subject to the foregoing, all of the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

12.05. Governing Law; Jurisdiction and Venue. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts, without regard to the conflicts of law rules of such state. Each Party hereby agrees that, any proceeding relating to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be brought in a state or federal court located in The Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Each Party hereby consents to personal jurisdiction in any such action brought in any such Massachusetts state or federal court, consents to service of process by registered mail made upon such Party and such Party’s agent and waives any objection to venue in any such Massachusetts state or federal court and any claim that any such Massachusetts state or federal court is an inconvenient forum.

12.06. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE ANCILLARY DOCUMENTS. EACH PARTY (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 HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE ANCILLARY DOCUMENTS, AS APPLICABLE, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 12.06.

12.07. Counterparts; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. This Agreement shall become effective when each Party hereto shall have received a counterpart hereof signed by the other Party hereto. Any signature page delivered by a facsimile machine or electronic mail is binding to the same extent as an original signature page with regard to this Agreement, any Ancillary Document or any amendment hereto or thereto.

12.08. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the Disclosure Schedule and Exhibits attached hereto, the Ancillary Documents, the Letter Agreement and the Confidentiality Agreement constitute the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements, understandings and negotiations, both written and oral, between the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement. No representation, inducement, promise, understanding, condition or warranty not set forth herein has been made or relied upon by either Party hereto.

12.09. Bulk Sales Laws. Buyer and Seller each hereby waive compliance by Seller with the provisions of the “bulk sales”, “bulk transfer” or similar laws of any state.

12.10. Severability. This Agreement shall be deemed severable and the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision hereof shall not affect the validity or enforceability of this Agreement or of any other term or provision hereof.

12.11. Headings. The article and section headings contained in this Agreement are solely for convenience of reference and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement or of any term or provision hereof.

All references to singular or plural shall include the other as the context may require. Unless otherwise expressly stated, the words “herein,” “hereof,” and “hereunder” and other words of similar import refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular Section, Subsection or other subdivision.
