3.2 Payment of Purchase Price. On the Closing Date, Purchaser shall pay the Purchase Price by:

(a) depositing the Indemnity Escrow Amount with the Escrow Agent in accordance with Section 10.5 hereof;

(b) transferring to such account or accounts as specified by LaSalle Bank National Association in its pay-off letter with respect to that certain First Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement, dated May 25, 2006, an amount sufficient to prepay in full the Seller’s outstanding indebtedness thereunder;

(d) depositing in the Payment Account the amount required under the Payment Agency Agreement; and

18

(e) transferring the balance of the Purchaser Price to Seller by wire transfer of immediately available funds into an account designated by Seller in writing not fewer than three Business Days prior to the Closing Date.

3.3 Estimated Closing Book Value Amounts.

(a) Prior to the Closing Purchaser and Seller shall agree in good faith on an estimate of the following amounts (collectively the “Estimated Closing Amounts”), to be paid on a physical inventory and a review of Seller’s financial and accounting records conducted as close to the Closing Date as reasonably practicable:

(i) the book value of Seller’s fixed assets as of Closing (which shall be listed on a fixed asset schedule delivered to Purchaser at Closing), determined in accordance with GAAP consistent with past practice (the “Estimated Closing Fixed Assets”);

(ii) the book value of Seller’s inventory as of Closing based on a physical inventory count taken jointly by Seller and Purchaser and Seller’s normal, consistently used costing policy for such items which generally represents the most recent invoice cost less cash discounts and other allowances, less the sum of (1) Unsaleable Inventory, and (2) deal stamp liability (the “Estimated Closing Inventory”);

(iii) the book value as of the Closing of Seller’s Adjusted Eligible Receivables, determined in accordance with GAAP consistent with past practice as calculated in accordance with Schedule 3.3, less the amount of any customer credits that constitute Liabilities of Seller at Closing (the “Estimated Closing Adjusted Eligible Receivables”); and

(iv) the book value as of the Closing of Seller’s Other Financial Assets (which shall be listed on a schedule of Other Financial Assets delivered to Purchaser at Closing), determined in accordance with GAAP consistent with past practice (the “Estimated Closing Other Assets”).

(b) Such estimates shall be jointly developed by Purchaser and Seller, and such Estimated Closing Amounts shall not be final for the purposes of Section 3.4 of this Agreement until Seller and Purchaser have agreed as to such calculations. In computing the Estimated Closing Amounts no value shall be given to any Excluded Assets. When agreed, the Estimated Closing Amounts shall be embodied in a Purchase Price Certificate (the “Purchase Price Certificate”) to be executed by Purchaser and Seller.

3.4 Purchase Price Adjustment. The Purchase Price payable on the Closing Date shall be adjusted as follows:

(a) the Purchase Price payable on the Closing Date shall be reduced or increased, as the case may be, by the amount that the Estimated Closing Fixed Assets is less than or greater than $2,861,000;

19

(b) the Purchase Price payable on the Closing Date shall be reduced or increased, as the case may be, by the amount that the Estimated Closing Inventory is less than or greater than $26,085,000;

(c) the Purchase Price payable on the Closing Date shall be reduced or increased, as the case may be, by the amount that the Estimated Closing Adjusted Eligible Receivables is less than or greater than $23,428,000; and

(d) the Purchase Price payable on the Closing Date shall be reduced or increased, as the case may be, by the amount that the Estimated Closing Other Assets is less than or greater than $2,981,000.

3.5 Post Closing Price Adjustment.

(a) As promptly as practicable, but no later than sixty days after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall cause to be prepared and delivered to Seller a closing statement (the “Closing Statement”) setting forth Purchaser’s calculation of Closing Amounts (as defined below) as of the end of business on the Closing Date. “Closing Amounts” means the actual value obtained by recalculating the Estimated Closing Amounts, based on the books of Seller, as determined in accordance with GAAP consistent with past practice and the accounting principles set forth in Schedule 3.3 and Section 3.3 above (the “Agreed Principles”), using actual values as of the end of business on the Closing Date rather than estimates.

(b) If Seller disagrees with Purchaser’s calculation of Closing Amounts delivered pursuant to Section 3.5(a), Seller may, within fifteen days after delivery of the Closing Statement, deliver a notice to Purchaser disagreeing with such calculation and setting forth Seller’s calculation of such amount. Any such notice of disagreement shall specify those items or amounts as to which Seller disagrees, and Seller shall be deemed to have agreed with all other items and amounts contained in the Closing Statement and the calculation of the Closing Amounts delivered pursuant to Section 3.5(a).

(c) If a notice of disagreement shall be duly delivered pursuant to Section 3.5(b), Purchaser and Seller shall, during the fifteen days following such delivery, use their commercially reasonable efforts to reach agreement on the disputed items or amounts in order to determine, as may be required, the amount of Closing Amounts, which amount shall not be less than the amount thereof shown in Purchaser’s calculation delivered pursuant to Section 3.5(a) nor more than the amount thereof shown in Seller’s calculation delivered pursuant to Section 3.5(b). If the parties so resolve all disputes, the computation of Closing Amounts, as amended to the extent necessary to reflect the resolution of the dispute, shall be conclusive and binding on the parties. If during such period, Purchaser and Seller are unable to reach an agreement, they shall promptly thereafter cause Ernst & Young (or if unable or unwilling to accept its mandate, an independent accountant to be mutually agreed upon by Purchaser and Seller) (Ernst & Young or such other independent accounting firm, as the case may be, the “Independent Accountant”) to review this Agreement and the disputed items or amounts for the purpose of calculating Closing Amounts (it being understood that in making such calculation, the Independent Accountant shall be functioning as an expert and not as an arbitrator). In making such calculation, the Independent Accountant shall consider only those items or amounts in the

20

Closing Statement and Purchaser’s calculation of Closing Amounts as to which Seller has disagreed. The Independent Accountant shall deliver to Purchaser and Seller, as promptly as practicable (but in any case no later than thirty days from the date of engagement of the Independent Accountant), a report setting forth such calculation. Such report shall be final and binding upon Purchaser and Seller. The fees, costs and expenses of the Independent Accountant’s review and report shall be borne equally by Purchaser and Seller.

(d) Purchaser and Seller shall, and shall cause their respective representatives to, cooperate and assist in the preparation of the Closing Statement and the calculation of Closing Amounts and in the conduct of the review referred to in this Section 3.5, including the making available to the extent necessary of books, records, work papers and personnel.

(e) If the Closing Amounts are less than the Estimated Closing Amounts, Seller shall pay to Purchaser, in the manner and with interest as provided in Section 3.5(f), the amount of such difference as an adjustment to the Purchase Price. If the Closing Amounts are more than the Estimated Closing Amounts, Purchaser shall pay to Seller, in the manner and with interest as provided in Section 3.5(f), the amount of such difference as an increase to the Purchase Price.

(f) Any payment pursuant to Section 3.5(e) shall be made at a mutually convenient time and place within three Business Days after the Closing Amounts have been finally determined by wire transfer by Purchaser or Seller, as the case may be, of immediately available funds to the account of such other party as may be designated in writing by such other party. The amount of any payment to be made pursuant to this Section 3.3 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 of interest published by The Wall Street Journal, Eastern Edition, from time to time as the “prime rate” at the large U.S. money center banks 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 elapsed.

3.6 Post Closing Excess Receivables Payments.

(a) Following the Closing, Purchaser shall use reasonable and customary means, in accordance with Purchaser’s normal practices, to collect the accounts receivables of Seller arising prior to Closing and assigned to Purchaser under this Agreement (the “Pre-Closing Receivables”). Purchaser shall be responsible for all reasonable and customary legal fees and costs incurred by Purchaser as a result of such collection and neither Purchaser nor Seller will be responsible to the other for time spent by such parties or out-of-pocket expenses incurred in such collection efforts. Notwithstanding the above, Purchaser’s obligation to collect the Pre-Closing Receivables by reasonable and customary means shall not include any obligation to grant concessions on future orders (or similar concessions) or pursue other unusual collection techniques. Payments received from or credited to any customer shall be applied first to the invoice to which such customer payment or credit relates. Any payment received from or credited to any customer that does not relate to a reasonably identifiable invoice shall be applied first to the oldest receivable of such customer that is not disputed by the customer. Seller, Purchaser and Parent specifically agree not to influence in any way a customer of the Seller to pay invoices in any specific order, but agree to use reasonable and customary means to pursue collections for all amounts outstanding.

21

(b) Purchaser shall not be obligated to make any payment to Seller in respect of Pre-Closing Receivables until Purchaser has collected Pre-Closing Receivables in an aggregate amount (prior to any deductions for collection expenses) equal to the amount paid by Purchaser for the Estimated Closing Adjusted Eligible Receivables. Thereafter, Purchaser shall pay to Seller on a monthly basis seventy percent (70%) of any additional Pre-Closing Receivables actually collected by Purchaser (prior to any deductions for collection expenses).

3.7 Certain Funds in Bank Accounts. At Closing, in addition to the Purchase Price, Purchaser shall pay to Seller the amount of the cash equivalents, “ledger funds” and unavailable funds in the Bank Accounts at the Closing, to the extent that (a) any of the foregoing have been posted and have reduced Seller’s accounts receivable sub ledger or related asset account balance and (b) such amounts are assigned to Purchaser and are not retained by Seller as Cash Receivables.

7.6 Non-Competition; Non-Solicitation; Confidentiality.

(a) For a period from the date hereof until the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date, Seller shall not and shall cause its Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly, own, manage, operate, control or participate in the ownership, management, operation or control of any business, whether in corporate, proprietorship or partnership form or otherwise, engaged in the convenience store distribution business or that otherwise competes with the Business (a “Restricted Business”); provided, however, that the restrictions contained in this Section 7.6(a) shall not restrict the acquisition by Seller, directly or indirectly, of less than 2% of the outstanding capital stock of any publicly traded company engaged in a Restricted Business. The parties hereto specifically acknowledge and agree that the remedy at law for any breach of the foregoing will be inadequate and that Purchaser or Parent , in addition to any other relief available to them, shall be entitled to temporary and permanent injunctive relief without the necessity of proving actual damage or posting any bond whatsoever.

(b) For a period from the date hereof to the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date, Seller shall not and shall cause its partners, officers, and Affiliates not to: (i) cause, solicit, induce or encourage any Employees of Seller who become employees of Purchaser or another Affiliate of Parent to leave such employment or hire, employ or otherwise engage any such individual; or (ii) cause, induce or encourage any material actual or prospective client, customer, supplier or licensor of the Business (including any existing or former customer of Seller and any Person that becomes a client or customer of the Business after the Closing) or any other Person who has a material business relationship with the Business, to terminate or modify any such actual or prospective relationship.

(c) From and after the date hereof, Seller shall not and shall cause its Affiliates and their respective officers, and directors not to, directly or indirectly, disclose,

47

reveal, divulge or communicate to any Person other than authorized officers, directors and employees of Purchaser or Parent or use or otherwise exploit for its own benefit or for the benefit of anyone other than the Purchaser or Parent, any Confidential Information (as defined below). The Seller and its officers, partners and Affiliates shall not have any obligation to keep confidential any Confidential Information if and to the extent disclosure thereof is specifically required by law or necessary for purposes of proving a claim or asserting a defense in any Legal Proceeding; provided, however, that in the event disclosure is required by applicable Law, the Seller shall, to the extent reasonably possible, provide Purchaser and Parent with prompt notice of such requirement prior to making any disclosure so that Purchaser and/or Parent may seek an appropriate protective order, provided, further, that in the event disclosure is necessary for purposes of proving a claim or asserting a defense in any Legal Proceeding (other than a legal proceeding between Purchaser and Seller), Seller shall have its legal counsel in such litigation issue an opinion to Purchaser certifying such fact. For purposes of this Section 7.6(c), “Confidential Information” means any information with respect to the Business, including methods of operation, customers, customer lists, products, prices, fees, costs, Technology, inventions, Trade Secrets, know-how, Software, marketing methods, plans, personnel, suppliers, competitors, markets or other specialized information or proprietary matters. Confidential Information does not include, and there shall be no obligation hereunder with respect to, information that (i) is generally available to the public on the date of this Agreement or (ii) becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure not otherwise permissible thereunder.

(d) The covenants and undertakings contained in this Section 7.6 relate to matters which are of a special, unique and extraordinary character and a violation of any of the terms of this Section 7.6 will cause irreparable injury to Purchaser and Parent, the amount of which will be impossible to estimate or determine and which cannot be adequately compensated. Accordingly, the remedy at law for any breach of this Section 7.6 will be inadequate. Therefore, Purchaser and / or Parent will be entitled to an injunction, restraining order or other equitable relief from any court of competent jurisdiction in the event of any breach of this Section 7.6 without the necessity of proving actual damages or posting any bond whatsoever. The rights and remedies provided by this Section 7.6 are cumulative and in addition to any other rights and remedies which Purchaser or Parent may have hereunder or at law or in equity.

(e) The parties hereto agree that, if any court of competent jurisdiction in a final nonappealable judgment determines that a specified time period, a specified geographical area, a specified business limitation or any other relevant feature of this Section 7.6 is unreasonable, arbitrary or against public policy, then a lesser time period, geographical area, business limitation or other relevant feature which is determined by such court to be reasonable, not arbitrary and not against public policy may be enforced against the applicable party.

7.7 Preservation of Records. Seller, Parent and Purchaser agree that each of them shall preserve and keep the records held by it or their Affiliates relating to the Business for a period of three years from the Closing Date and shall make such records and personnel available to the other as may be reasonably required by such party in connection with, among other things, any insurance claims by, legal proceedings against or governmental investigations of Seller, Parent or Purchaser or any of their Affiliates or in order to enable Seller, Parent or Purchaser to comply with their respective obligations under this Agreement and each other agreement,

48

document or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby. In the event any party wishes to destroy (or permit to be destroyed) such records after that time, such party shall first give ninety days prior written notice to the other and such other party shall have the right at its option and expense, upon prior written notice given to such other party within that ninety-day period, to take possession of the records within 180 days after the date of such notice.

7.8 Publicity.

(a) Neither Seller, Parent nor Purchaser shall issue any press release or public announcement concerning this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby without obtaining the prior written approval of the other party hereto, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, unless, in the sole judgment of Parent, disclosure is otherwise required by applicable Law or by the applicable rules of any stock exchange or other market on which Parent lists securities.

(b) Each of Seller, Purchaser and Parent agrees that it shall not disclose or otherwise make available to the public the terms of this Agreement and that copies of this Agreement shall not be publicly filed or otherwise made available to the public, except where such disclosure, availability or filing is required by applicable Law and only to the extent required by such Law.

7.9 Use of Name. Seller hereby agrees that upon the Closing, Purchaser shall receive an assignment of such rights as are held by Seller to the use of the names “Klein Candy Co.,” “Klein Candy Company” and “Klein Wholesale Distributors” and any similar or derivative names to which any rights are held by Seller, and any service marks, trademarks, trade names, d/b/a names, fictitious names, identifying symbols, logos, emblems or signs containing or comprising the foregoing, or otherwise used in the Business, including any name or mark confusingly similar thereto to which any rights are held by Seller (collectively, the “Seller Marks”) and Seller shall not, and shall not permit any Affiliate or third party to, use any of the Seller Marks or any variation or simulation thereof following Closing, except for the limited purpose of collecting the Retained Receivables by stating Seller was “formally known as” such name.

(b) Seller shall promptly file all materials required by Environmental Laws as a result of or in furtherance of the transactions contemplated hereunder, including, but not limited to any notifications or approvals required under environmental property transfer laws and all requests required or necessary for the transfer or re-issuance of Environmental Permits required to conduct the Business after the Closing Date.

7.14 Notification of Certain Matters. Seller shall give written notice with specificity to Purchaser and Parent, and Purchaser and Parent shall give written notice with specificity to Seller, in each case referring to this Section 7.14, as promptly as reasonably practicable upon becoming aware of (a) any fact, change, condition, circumstance, event, occurrence or non-occurrence arising after the date of this Agreement that has caused or is reasonably likely to cause any representation or warranty in this Agreement made by it to be untrue or inaccurate in any respect at any time after the date hereof and prior to the Closing, or (b) the institution of or the threat of institution of any Legal Proceeding related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. Such notice shall be deemed to be part of the Schedules hereto unless such inaccuracy or Legal Proceeding arose or resulted from any willful or intentional breach by the party giving such notice of its obligations under this Agreement.

Any representations and warranties contained in the Real Estate Purchase Agreement shall survive the closing thereunder as provided in the Real Estate Purchase Agreement.

10.3 Indemnification Procedures.

(a) A claim for indemnification for any matter not involving a third party claim must be asserted by notice to the party from whom indemnification is sought and such notice must make reference to this Article X; provided, however, that failure to so notify the indemnifying party shall not preclude the indemnified party from any indemnification which it may claim in accordance with this Article X unless the indemnifying party shall be demonstrably prejudiced thereby or the period in which the claim may be asserted under this Article X has expired.

(b) In the event that any Legal Proceedings shall be instituted or that any claim or demand shall be asserted by any third party in respect of which indemnification may be sought under Section 10.2 hereof (regardless of the limitations set forth in Section 10.4(a)) (“Third Party Claim”), the indemnified party shall promptly cause written notice of the assertion of any Third Party Claim of which it has knowledge which is covered by this indemnity to be forwarded to the indemnifying party. The failure of the indemnified party to give reasonably prompt notice of any Third Party Claim shall not release, waive or otherwise affect the indemnifying party’s obligations with respect thereto except to the extent that the indemnifying party can demonstrate actual loss and prejudice as a result of such failure or the period in which the claim may be asserted under this Article X has expired. Subject to the provisions of this Section 10.3, the indemnifying party shall have the right, at its sole expense, to be represented by counsel of its choice (which must reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party), and to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with any Third Party Claim which relates to any Losses indemnified against by it hereunder; provided that the indemnifying party shall have acknowledged in writing to the indemnified party its obligation to indemnify the indemnified party as provided hereunder. If the indemnifying party elects to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with any Third Party Claim which relates to any Losses indemnified against by it hereunder, it shall within five Business Days of the indemnified party’s written notice of the assertion of such Third Party Claim (or sooner, if the nature of the Third Party Claim so requires) notify the indemnified party of its intent to do so; provided that the indemnifying party must conduct its defense of the Third Party Claim with reasonable diligence thereafter in order to preserve its rights in this regard. If the indemnifying party elects not to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with any Third Party Claim which relates to any Losses indemnified against by it hereunder, fails to notify the indemnified party of its election as herein provided or contests its obligation to indemnify the indemnified party for such Losses under this Agreement, the indemnified party may defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with such Third Party Claim (subject to the approval by the indemnifying party of any settlement with respect to which a claim for indemnity will be made under this Agreement, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If the indemnified party defends

58

any Third Party Claim, then the indemnifying party shall reimburse the indemnified party for the reasonable expenses of defending such Third Party Claim upon submission of periodic bills. If the indemnifying party shall assume the defense of any Third Party Claim, the indemnified party may participate, at his or its own expense, in the defense of such Third Party Claim; provided, however, that such indemnified party shall be entitled to participate in any such defense with separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party if (i) so requested by the indemnifying party to participate or (ii) in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the indemnified party a conflict or potential conflict exists between the indemnified party and the indemnifying party that would make such separate representation advisable; and provided, further, that the indemnifying party shall not be required to pay for more than one such counsel (plus any appropriate local counsel) for all indemnified parties in connection with any Third Party Claim. Each party hereto agrees to provide reasonable access to each other party to such documents and information as may reasonably be requested in connection with the defense, negotiation or settlement of any such Third Party Claim. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 10.3 to the contrary, neither the indemnifying party nor the indemnified party shall, without the written consent of the other party, settle or compromise any Third Party Claim or permit a default or consent to entry of any judgment unless the claimant (or claimants) and such party provide to such other party an unqualified release from all liability in respect of the Third Party Claim. If the indemnifying party makes any payment on any Third Party Claim, the indemnifying party shall be subrogated, to the extent of such payment, to all rights and remedies of the indemnified party to any insurance benefits or other claims of the indemnified party with respect to such Third Party Claim.

(c) After any final decision, judgment or award shall have been rendered by a Governmental Body of competent jurisdiction and the expiration of the time in which to appeal therefrom, or a settlement shall have been consummated, or the indemnified party and the indemnifying party shall have arrived at a mutually binding agreement, in each case with respect to an Third Party Claim hereunder, the indemnified party shall forward to the indemnifying party notice of any sums due and owing by the indemnifying party pursuant to this Agreement with respect to such matter and the indemnifying party shall pay all of such remaining sums so due and owing to the indemnified party in accordance with Section 10.5.

10.4 Limitations on Indemnification.

(a) An indemnifying party shall not have any liability under Section 10.2(a)(i) or Section 10.2(b)(i) hereof unless the aggregate amount of Losses incurred by the indemnified parties and indemnifiable thereunder based upon, attributable to or resulting from the failure of any of the representations or warranties to be true and correct exceeds $175,000 (the “Basket”) and, in such event, the indemnifying party shall be required to pay the entire amount of all such Losses; provided that the Basket limitation shall not apply to Losses related to the failure to be true and correct of any of the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 5.1 (organization and good standing), 5.2 (authorization of agreement), 5.6 (title to purchased assets; possession), 6.1 (organization), and 6.2 (authorization of agreement) of this Agreement or in Sections 5.1 (organization and good standing), 5.2 (authorization of agreement), 5.4 (title to property), 5.6 (taxes), and 6.1 (organization), and 6.2 (authorization of agreement) of the Real Estate Purchase Agreement (collectively hereinafter referred to as the “Special Provisions”).

59

(b) Neither Seller, on the one hand, nor Parent and Purchaser, on the other hand, shall be required to indemnify any Person under Section 10.2(a), 10.2(b) and/or 10.3 for an aggregate amount of Losses exceeding $7,000,000 (the “Cap”, which amount shall be inclusive of any Losses funded by the Indemnity Escrow Account and the Guaranty); provided, that there shall be no Cap with respect to Losses related to claims under Section 10.2(a)(vii) or the failure to be true and correct of any of the representations or warranties contained in any of the Special Provisions.

(c) For purposes of determining the calculation of Losses hereunder, any materiality or Material Adverse Effect qualifications in the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements shall be disregarded, even if such materiality or Material Adverse Effect qualifications would prevent the indemnified party from otherwise declaring such representations and warranties to have been breached or to be untrue. For avoidance of doubt, an example of the application of this Section 10.4(c) is attached as Schedule 10.4(c).

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Seller’s indemnification obligations shall not apply to any Loss arising from Purchaser’s continuation after the Closing of any business practice of the Seller prior to the Closing

(e) The parties acknowledge and agree that the indemnification provisions contained in Article X shall be the sole and exclusive remedy for Losses based upon, attributable to or resulting from the breach or inaccuracy or failure to comply with any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements of the parties in this Agreement under any theory of law or equity, except to the extent that the Seller engaged in fraud (which for this purpose only shall exclude averments of negligent misrepresentation) or a willful breach. No party shall be entitled to an indemnity payment under this Agreement in respect of any Losses to the extent that the amount of such Losses is reflected in the calculation of the adjustment of the Purchase Price pursuant to Sections 3.4, 3.5 or 3.6.

10.5 Indemnity Escrow.

(a) On the Closing Date, Purchaser shall, on behalf of Seller, pay to LaSalle Bank National Association, as agent for Purchaser and Seller (the “Escrow Agent”), in immediately available funds, to the account (the “Indemnity Escrow Account”) designated by the Escrow Agent, the amount of $3,000,000 from the Purchase Price under this Agreement (the “Indemnity Escrow Amount”), in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Real Estate Purchase Agreement and the Escrow Agreement, which will be executed at the Closing, by and among Purchaser, Seller, the Seller Representative, and the Escrow Agent (the “Escrow Agreement”). The Indemnity Escrow Account shall be subject to a first perfected security interest in favor of Purchaser and Parent, and so long as the Indemnity Escrow Account is in effect and until the Available Amount (as defined in the Guaranty) has been reduced to zero, any payment that Seller or any of the Seller Partners is obligated to make to any Purchaser Indemnified Parties pursuant to this Article X or the Guaranty (other than claims arising under Section 10.2(a)(vii)) shall be paid first from funds in the Indemnity Escrow Account, by release of funds to the Purchaser Indemnified Parties from the Indemnity Escrow Account by the Escrow Agent within thirty (30) calendar days after the date notice of any sums due and owing is given to the Seller Representative (as defined in Section 10.6) (with a copy to the Escrow Agent

60

pursuant to the Escrow Agreement) by the applicable Purchaser Indemnified Party. Any such payment shall accordingly reduce the Indemnity Escrow Amount, subject to the right of the Seller Representative to object as provided in this Section 10.5.

(b) If the Seller Representative wishes to object to the allowance of the claim made against the Indemnity Escrow Amount, the Seller Representative on behalf of Seller and the Seller Partners must deliver a written objection (“Objection”) to Purchaser in accordance with the notice provisions set forth in Section 12.6 within thirty (30) calendar days after receipt of such claim by the Seller Representative, expressing such Objection and explaining in reasonable detail the basis therefor. Following receipt by Purchaser of the Objection, if any, Purchaser and the Seller Representative shall promptly meet to agree on the rights of the respective parties with respect to each of such claims. If the Seller Representative and Purchaser should so agree, a memorandum setting forth such agreement shall be prepared and signed by both parties, and the amounts agreed in such written memorandum shall be immediately paid to Purchaser from the Indemnity Escrow Account. If Purchaser and the Seller Representative cannot agree on the resolution of any Objection with five Business Days after delivery of any Objection, Purchaser may enforce its claim against the Indemnity Escrow Account by any legal process available to it.

(c) If the Seller Representative fails to respond to a claim against the Indemnity Escrow Account within the thirty (30) calendar day period described above, then that failure shall conclusively be deemed agreement with the claim and the amount of such claim shall be immediately paid to Purchaser from the Indemnity Escrow Account.

(d) The Escrow Agent shall release to Seller from the remaining Indemnity Escrow Amount (to the extent not utilized to pay any Purchaser Indemnified Party for any indemnification claim) at the following dates: (i) on the six month anniversary of the Closing Date, the amount in excess of the sum of (x) $2,000,000 plus (y) the amount of all claims for indemnification under this Article X asserted but not yet resolved and paid (“Unresolved Claims”) prior to such date, (ii) on the 12 month anniversary of the Closing Date, the amount in excess of the sum of (x) $1,000,000 plus (y) the amount of all Unresolved Claims asserted prior to such 12 month anniversary date but unresolved or unpaid as of such date and (iii) on the 18 month anniversary of the Closing Date, all of the remaining Indemnity Escrow Amount except for an amount equal to Unresolved Claims asserted prior to such 18 month anniversary date but unresolved as of such date. The Indemnity Escrow Amount retained for Unresolved Claims shall be released by the Escrow Agent (to the extent not utilized to pay any Purchaser Indemnified Party for any such claims resolved in favor of a Purchaser Indemnified Party) upon their resolution.

(e) After the Indemnity Escrow Account has been released as provided above, or the Available Amount has been reduced to zero, Purchaser or any Purchaser Indemnified Party may proceed directly against the Seller Partners under the Guaranty (subject to the limitations contained in the Guaranty) with respect to any claim for which indemnity may be sought under this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Purchaser and any Purchaser Indemnified Party may proceed directly against the Seller Partners under the Guaranty at any time, for any claims arising under Section 10.2(a)(vii) of this Agreement.

61

10.6 Seller Representative

(a) Seller and the Seller Partners hereby appoint Steven Dressler, acting as the representative of Seller and the Seller Partners (the “Seller Representative”), as the attorney-in-fact for and on behalf of Seller and each Seller Partner, and the taking by the Seller Representative of any and all actions and the making of any decisions required or permitted to be taken by him under this Agreement and under the Guaranty, including the exercise of the power to (i) agree to, negotiate, enter into settlements and compromises of and comply with orders of courts and awards of arbitrators with respect to claims of indemnification under this Article 10 (an “Indemnification Claim”), (ii) resolve any Indemnification Claims and (iii) take all actions necessary in the judgment of the Seller Representative for the accomplishment of the foregoing and all of the other terms, conditions and limitations of this Agreement. Accordingly, the Seller Representative has unlimited authority and power to act on behalf of Seller and each Seller Partner with respect to this Agreement, the Guaranty and the disposition, settlement or other handling of all Indemnification Claims, rights or obligations arising from and taken pursuant to this Agreement. The Seller and the Seller Partners will be bound by all actions taken by the Seller Representative in connection with this Agreement and the Guaranty, and Purchaser and Parent shall be entitled to rely on any action or decision of the Seller Representative.

(b) The Seller Representative shall be given access to such information about Seller, Purchaser or the Purchased Assets as is necessary and appropriate to enable the Seller Representative to perform the duties and responsibilities set forth in this Section 10.6; provided, however, that, except to the extent necessary to perform the duties and responsibilities set forth in this Section 10.6, the Seller Representative agrees not to use or disclose, and to hold in strict confidence, any such information about the Seller, Purchaser or the Purchased Assets so provided. The Seller Representative will incur no liability to the Seller or the Seller Partners with respect to any action taken or suffered by him in reliance upon any notice, direction, instruction, consent, statement or other document believed by him to be genuine and to have been signed by the proper person (and shall have no responsibility to determine the authenticity thereof), nor for any other action or inaction, except his own willful misconduct or gross negligence. The Seller and the Seller Partners agree that in all questions arising under this Agreement, the Seller Representative may rely on the advice of counsel, and the Seller Representative will not be liable to Seller or any of the Seller Partners for anything done, omitted or suffered in good faith by the Seller Representative based on such advice. The Seller and the Seller Partners agree that the Seller Representative will not be required to take any action involving any expense unless the payment of such expense is made or provided for by Seller and the Seller Partners in a manner satisfactory to him.

(c) At any time during the term of this Agreement, Seller and the Seller Partners may remove and replace the individual serving as the Seller Representative by unanimous written consent by sending notice and a copy of the written consent appointing such new individual or individuals signed by Seller and each of the Seller Partners to Purchaser. Such appointment will be effective upon the later of the date indicated in the consent or the date such consent is received by Purchaser. Any such new individual shall serve in such capacity subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and provide notice to Purchaser of his or her identity, along with notice information for purposes of this Agreement.

62

(d) Each of Seller and the Seller Partners shall, jointly and severally, indemnify and hold the Seller Representative harmless from any and all liability and expense (including, without limitation, counsel fees) that may arise out of any action taken or omitted by him as the Seller Representative in accordance with this Agreement, as the same may be amended, modified or supplemented, except such liability and expense as may result from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Seller Representative.

(e) All reasonable costs and expenses payable by the Seller Representative hereunder on behalf of Seller and the Seller Partners will be paid exclusively on a pro rata basis by Seller and the Seller Partners upon demand by the Seller Representative.

10.7 Tax Treatment of Indemnity Payments. Seller, Parent and Purchaser agree to treat any indemnity payment made pursuant to this Article X as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for all income tax purposes. If, notwithstanding the treatment required by the preceding sentence, any indemnification payment under Article X (including this Section 10.7) is determined to be taxable to the party receiving such payment by any Taxing Authority, the paying party shall also indemnify the party receiving such payment for any Taxes incurred by reason of the receipt of such payment and any Losses incurred by the party receiving such payment in connection with such Taxes (or any asserted deficiency, claim, demand, action, suit, proceeding, judgment or assessment, including the defense or settlement thereof, relating to such Taxes).

10.8 Seller Partners’ Guaranty. The Seller Partners agree to execute and deliver to the Parent and the Purchase at Closing a guaranty in a form mutually satisfactory to Parent, Purchaser and the Seller Partners (the “Guaranty”) of the indemnification obligations of Seller set forth in Article X, subject to all of the conditions and limitations set forth in Article X. The Guaranty, which shall be limited in aggregate amount to $4,000,000, shall be in excess of the Indemnity Escrow Account, except that the Guaranty shall be the primary recourse, without limit, for payment of indemnification claims arising under Section 10.2(a)(vii).

ARTICLE XI

TAXES

11.1 [Intentionally Omitted]

11.2 Prorations. All real property taxes, personal property taxes, or ad valorem obligations and similar taxes and fees on the Purchased Assets or the Business for taxable periods beginning before, and ending after, the Closing Date, shall be prorated between Purchaser and Seller as of the Closing Date. Seller shall be responsible for all such taxes and fees on the Purchased Assets for the period up to and including the Closing Date. Purchaser shall be responsible for all such taxes and fees on the Purchased Assets or the Business for the period after the Closing Date. With respect to Taxes described in this Section 11.2, Seller shall timely file all Tax Returns due on or before the Closing Date with respect to such Taxes and Purchaser shall prepare and timely file all Tax Returns due after the Closing Date with respect to

63

such Taxes. If one party remits to the appropriate Taxing Authority payment for Taxes, which are subject to proration under this Section 11.2 and such payment includes the other party’s share of such Taxes, such other party shall promptly reimburse the remitting party for its share of such Taxes.

11.3 Cooperation on Tax Matters. Purchaser, Parent and Seller shall furnish or cause to be furnished to each other, as promptly as practicable, such information and assistance relating to the Purchased Assets and the Assumed Liabilities as is reasonably necessary for the preparation and filing of any Tax Return, claim for refund or other filings relating to Tax matters, for the preparation for any Tax audit, for the preparation for any Tax protest, for the prosecution or defense of any suit or other proceeding relating to Tax matters.

11.4 Tax Clearance Certificates. Seller shall notify all of the Taxing Authorities for the jurisdictions set forth on Schedule 5.8(c) of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in the form and manner required by such Taxing Authorities, if the failure to make such notifications or receive any available tax clearance certificate (“Tax Clearance Certificate”) could subject the Purchaser or Parent to any Taxes of Seller. If, in respect to any application for Tax Clearance Certificates made pursuant to this Section 11.4, any Governmental Entity asserts that Seller is liable for any Tax, Seller shall promptly pay any and all such amounts and shall provide evidence to the Purchaser that such liabilities have been paid in full or otherwise satisfied. With regard to any Tax Clearance Certificate that can not be obtained by the Closing Date despite timely notice given by Seller, adequate provision shall be made in the Payment Account for all taxes not paid which must be paid in order to secure the Tax Clearance Certificate based on Seller’s estimates of such liabilities, subject to Purchaser’s approval which approval shall not be unreasonably delayed or withheld.

ARTICLE XII

MISCELLANEOUS

12.1 Expenses. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each of Seller, Parent and Purchaser shall bear its own expenses incurred in connection with the negotiation and execution of this Agreement and each other agreement, document and instrument contemplated by this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. Liabilities for expenses incurred by Seller will not be assumed by Purchaser.

12.2 Specific Performance. Each party acknowledges and agrees that its breach of this Agreement would cause irreparable damage to the other party, and that such other party will not have an adequate remedy at law. Therefore, the obligations of the parties under this Agreement shall be enforceable by a decree of specific performance issued by any court of competent jurisdiction, and appropriate injunctive relief may be applied for and granted in connection therewith. Such remedies shall, however, be cumulative and not exclusive and shall be in addition to any other remedies which any party may have under this Agreement or otherwise.

64

12.3 Submission to Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process.

(a) The parties hereto hereby irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of any federal or state court located within the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania over any dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby and each party hereby irrevocably agrees that all claims in respect of such dispute or any suit, action proceeding related thereto may be heard and determined in such courts. The parties hereby irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any objection which they may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such dispute brought in such court or any defense of inconvenient forum for the maintenance of such dispute. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a judgment in any such dispute may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.

(b) Each of the parties hereto hereby consents to process being served by any party to this Agreement in any suit, action or proceeding by the delivery of a copy thereof in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.6.

12.4 Entire Agreement; Amendments and Waivers. This Agreement (including the schedules and exhibits hereto), together with the Real Estate Purchase Agreement and the other documents and agreements to be delivered in connection herewith and therewith, represents the entire understanding and agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement can be amended, supplemented or changed, and any provision hereof can be waived, only by written instrument making specific reference to this Agreement signed by the party against whom enforcement of any such amendment, supplement, modification or waiver is sought. No action taken pursuant to this Agreement, including without limitation, any investigation by or on behalf of any party, shall be deemed to constitute a waiver by the party taking such action of compliance with any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained herein. The waiver by any party hereto of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a further or continuing waiver of such breach or as a waiver of any other or subsequent breach. No failure on the part of any party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of such right, power or remedy by such party preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy.

12.5 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania applicable to contracts made and performed in such State.

12.6 Notices.

12.7 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal, or incapable of being enforced by any law or public policy, all other terms or provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal, or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.

12.8 Binding Effect; Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Nothing in this Agreement shall create or be deemed to create any third party beneficiary rights in any person or entity not a party to this Agreement except as provided below. No assignment of this Agreement or of any rights or obligations hereunder may be made by either Seller, Parent or Purchaser (by operation of law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto and any attempted assignment without the required consents shall be void; provided, however, that Purchaser and Parent may assign this Agreement and any or all rights or obligations hereunder

66

(including, without limitation, Purchaser’s rights to purchase the Purchased Assets and assume the Assumed Liabilities and Purchaser’s and Parent’s rights to seek indemnification hereunder) to any Affiliate of Purchaser or Parent, any Person from which either of them has borrowed money or any Person to which Purchaser or any of its Affiliates proposes to sell all or substantially all of the assets relating to the Business. Upon any such permitted assignment, the references in this Agreement to Purchaser shall also apply to any such assignee unless the context otherwise requires. However, Parent shall be responsible for the performance of any such assignee’s obligations under this Agreement in accordance with Section 12.9.

12.9 Parent Guaranty .

12.5 Payment of Costs. All reasonable costs and expenses payable by the Seller Representative hereunder on behalf of any Appointing Party will be paid exclusively on a pro rata basis by the Appointing Party upon demand by the Seller Representative.

12.6 Seller Fully Liable.
