Two (2) times Amount of Cumulative Revenue which are both (i) above $13,500,000 Million (but capped at $20,000,000) and (ii) greater than 135% of the Cumulative Revenue for Fiscal Year 2022.

For the purposes of this Agreement, “Cumulative Revenue” means the amount of (i) gross revenue calculated in accordance with GAAP generated by the Business (exclusive of any revenue generated from Buyer’s products in which Purchased Assets are used) during the applicable Measurement Period, plus (ii) for Fiscal Year 2022 only, the backlog of unfilled firm orders of the Business booked or received during Fiscal Year 2022. For avoidance of doubt, the number of days included in Fiscal Year 2022 for purposes of measuring Cumulative Revenue shall include the full calendar year of 2022 regardless of the Closing Date and regardless of whether Seller or Buyer operated the Business during Fiscal Year 2022.

(b) Within sixty (60) days after a Measurement Period, Buyer shall prepare and deliver to Seller a statement setting forth its calculation of Cumulative Revenue for such Measurement Period (the “Revenue Statement”).

(c) After receipt of the Revenue Statement, Seller shall have thirty (30) days (the “Milestone Review Period”) to review the Revenue Statement. During the Milestone Review Period, Seller and Seller’s accountants shall have access, which shall not be unreasonably withheld by Buyer, to the relevant books and records of Buyer the personnel of, and work papers prepared by, Buyer or Buyer’s accountants to the extent that they relate to the Revenue Statement and to such historical financial information (to the extent in Buyer’s possession) relating to the Revenue Statement as Seller may reasonably request for the purpose of reviewing the Revenue Statement and to prepare a Milestone Statement of Objections (defined below), provided, that such access shall be in a manner that does not interfere with the normal business operations of Buyer.

(d) On or prior to the last day of the Milestone Review Period, Seller may object to the Revenue Statement by delivering to Buyer a written statement setting forth Seller’s objections in reasonable detail, indicating each disputed item or amount and the basis for Seller’s disagreement therewith (the “Milestone Statement of Objections”). If Seller fails to deliver the Milestone Statement of Objections before the expiration of the Milestone Review Period, the Revenue Statement and the Cumulative Revenue reflected in the Revenue Statement shall be deemed to have been accepted by Seller. If Seller delivers the Milestone Statement of Objections before the expiration of the Milestone Review Period, Buyer and Seller shall negotiate in good faith to resolve such objections within thirty (30) days after the delivery of the Milestone Statement of Objections (the “Milestone Resolution Period”), and, if the same are so resolved within the Milestone Resolution Period, the Cumulative Revenue and the Revenue Statement with such changes as may have been previously agreed in writing by Buyer and Seller, shall be final and binding.

(e) If Seller and Buyer fail to reach an agreement with respect to all of the matters set forth in the Milestone Statement of Objections before expiration of the Milestone Resolution Period, then any amounts remaining in dispute (“Milestone Disputed Amounts”), Buyer and Seller shall mutually agree upon and submit the Milestone Disputed Amounts for resolution to an impartial nationally recognized firm of independent certified public accountants other than Seller’s accountants or Buyer’s accountants (the “Independent Accountant”) who, acting as experts and not arbitrators, shall resolve the Milestone Disputed Amounts only and make any adjustments to the Cumulative Revenue and the Revenue Statement. The parties hereto agree that all adjustments shall be made without regard to materiality. The Independent Accountant shall only decide the specific items under dispute by the parties and their decision for each Milestone Disputed Amount must be within the range of values assigned to each such item in the Revenue Statement and the Milestone Statement of Objections, respectively.

(f) The fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant shall be paid by Seller, on the one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand, based upon the percentage that the amount actually contested but not awarded to Seller or Buyer, respectively, bears to the aggregate amount actually contested by Seller and Buyer. The Independent Accountant shall make a determination as soon as practicable within thirty (30) days (or such other time as the parties hereto shall agree in writing) after their engagement, and their resolution of the Milestone Disputed Amounts and their adjustments to the Cumulative Revenue shall be conclusive and binding upon the parties hereto.

(g) Any payments made pursuant to Section 2.06 shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price by the parties for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Law.

(h) In the event that Seller achieves a Milestone Event based on the Cumulative Revenue during a Measurement Period, the Buyer will pay Seller such Milestone Payment in Common Stock based on the five-day Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) of Buyer’s Common Stock for the five-day period ending on the last full trading day prior to the filing of the Buyer’s Annual Report on Form 10-K with the SEC in the calendar year following the applicable Measurement Period in which the Cumulative Revenue and Milestone Event were achieved (the “10-K Filing Date”). Subject to the Share Limitation Cap, Buyer shall deliver any Milestone Payment to Seller by issuing such number of shares of Common Stock due to Seller within five (5) days of the later of (i) Buyer’s 10-K Filing Date, (ii) the end Milestone Resolution Period, and (iii) resolution of any Milestone Disputed Amounts.

(i) The parties hereto understand and agree that (i) the contingent rights to receive any Milestone Payment shall not be represented by any form of certificate or other instrument, are not transferable, and do not constitute an equity or ownership interest in Buyer (until such time as Common Stock is actually issued), (ii) Seller shall not have any rights as a securityholder of Buyer as a result of Seller’s contingent right to receive any Milestone Payment hereunder, and (iii) no interest is payable with respect to any Milestone Payment.

(j) During all Measurement Periods, (i) Buyer shall not take any action to intentionally eliminate or decrease the Cumulative Revenue, (ii) Buyer shall maintain separate books and financial records of the Business in order to calculate Cumulative Revenue, and (ii) Buyer shall not divert any opportunities or transfer any assets, properties or rights of the Business to any other Person or Affiliate (in each case, if such transfer would reasonably be expected to reduce Cumulative Revenue). If, during any Measurement Period, the Buyer sells, leases or licenses all or substantially all of its assets or the Business to any unaffiliated third party, then Buyer, as a condition to such transaction, shall require the third party to assume the obligations under this Agreement. If, during any Measurement Period, the registration of Common Stock is terminated or suspended under any applicable securities Laws or delisted from any stock exchange, then, subject in all respects to the Share Limitation Cap, Buyer and Seller shall cooperate in good faith to mutually determine the value of the unlisted Common Stock.

(k) Seller agrees and acknowledges that the maximum aggregate amount of shares of Common Stock that Buyer will issue to Seller for the Closing Payment and Milestone Payments will not exceed 19.99% of the issued and outstanding number of shares of Common Stock on the date hereof (the “Share Limitation Cap”). SELLER AGREES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IN NO EVENT AND UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES WILL SELLER RECEIVE ANY CASH CONSIDERATION UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IN THE EVENT THE SHARE LIMITATION CAP IS REACHED FOR ANY REASON.

Section 2.07 Net Purchased Assets(a). Prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall deliver to Buyer its determination of Net Purchased Assets. At Buyer’s request, Seller and Buyer shall conduct a joint inspection of all Inventory prior to Closing to verify such Net Purchased Assets. If Buyer discovers a mistake in Seller’s calculation of Net Purchased Assets, Buyer and Seller shall cooperate in good faith to reconcile such mistake. For the purposes of this Article II:

Seller and Buyer agree that the Purchase Price and the Assumed Liabilities (plus other relevant items) shall be allocated among the Purchased Assets for all purposes (including Tax and financial accounting) as shown on the allocation schedule including all fixed assets being valued at their tax basis (the “Allocation Schedule”). A draft of the Allocation Schedule shall be prepared by Buyer and delivered to Seller within sixty (60) days following the Closing Date. If Seller notifies Buyer in writing within thirty (30) days following the date that the Allocation Schedule is delivered to Seller that Seller objects to one or more items reflected in the Allocation Schedule (which notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis of Seller’s objection and Seller’s proposal for an alternate Allocation Schedule), Seller and Buyer shall negotiate in good faith to resolve such dispute; provided, however, that if Seller and Buyer are unable to resolve any dispute with respect to the Allocation Schedule within sixty (60) days following the date that the Allocation Schedule is delivered to Seller, either party may submit such dispute to the Independent Accountant. The fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant shall be borne equally by Seller and Buyer. If Seller fails to object to the draft Allocation Schedule prior to the expiration of the thirty (30) day review period, or if Seller affirmatively accepts the draft Allocation Schedule provided by Buyer, such Allocation Schedule shall be final and binding. Buyer and Seller shall file all Tax Returns (including amended returns and claims for refund) and information reports in a manner consistent with the final and binding Allocation Schedule. Any adjustments to the Purchase Price pursuant to Section 2.06 and Section 2.07 herein shall be allocated in a manner consistent with the Allocation Schedule.

Section 2.09 Third Party Consents. To the extent that Seller’s rights under any Contract or Permit constituting a Purchased Asset, or any other Purchased Asset, may not be assigned to Buyer without the consent of another Person which has not been obtained, this Agreement shall not constitute an agreement to assign the same if an attempted assignment would constitute a breach thereof or be unlawful, and Seller, at its expense, shall use its best efforts to obtain any such required consent(s) as promptly as possible. If any such consent shall not be obtained or if any attempted assignment would be ineffective or would impair Buyer’s rights under the Purchased Asset in question so that Buyer would not in effect acquire the benefit of all such rights, Seller, to the maximum extent permitted by law and the Purchased Asset, shall act after the Closing as Buyer’s agent in order to obtain for it the benefits thereunder and shall reasonably cooperate, to the maximum extent permitted by Law, with Buyer in any other reasonable arrangement designed to provide such benefits to Buyer.

Section 2.10 Pro-ration. All rents and utilities, and the other customary proration items will be pro-rated between Buyer and Seller as of the Closing Date. To the extent any such items are not, or cannot, be prorated as of the Closing, Seller and Buyer will meet and confer in good faith as soon as practicable following the Closing Date in order to determine and reconcile: (A) any Business-related expenses paid or incurred by Buyer that properly relate to the period prior to the Closing Date, which shall be the responsibility of Seller, and (B) any Business-related expenses paid or incurred by Seller that properly relate to the period on or following the Closing Date or are Assumed Liabilities, which shall be the responsibility of Buyer. To the extent one party owes amounts to the other party as a result of such reconciliation, the party so owing shall promptly remit payment to the other.

Section 2.11 Withholding Tax. Buyer shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the Purchase Price all Taxes that Buyer may be required to deduct and withhold under any provision of Tax Law; provided however that Buyer shall provide at least three (3) days prior written notice of intention to so withhold, and shall fully cooperate with Seller’s efforts to reduce or eliminate any such required withholding.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any claims asserted in good faith with reasonable specificity (to the extent known at such time) and in writing by notice from the non-breaching party to the breaching party prior to the expiration date of the applicable survival period shall not thereafter be barred by the expiration of the relevant representation or warranty and such claims shall survive until finally resolved.

b. any breach or non-fulfillment of any covenant, agreement or obligation to be performed by Buyer pursuant to this Agreement, the Ancillary Documents or in any closing certificate;

a. Seller shall not be liable to the Buyer Indemnitees for indemnification under Section 8.02(a) (i) unless any individual Loss exceeds $25,000 (each, a “Small Claim”), and (ii) until the aggregate amount of all Losses in respect of indemnification under Section 8.02(a) exceeds one percent (1%) of the Actually Received Consideration (the “Deductible”), in which event Seller shall be required to pay or be liable for all such Losses. “Actually Received Consideration” shall mean the dollar value of the Common Stock received by Seller at Closing plus the dollar value of any Milestone Payment as and when paid to Seller. Except for the Fundamental Representations and Fraud, the aggregate amount of all Losses for which Seller shall be liable pursuant to Section 8.02(a) shall not exceed fifteen percent (20%) of the Actually Received Consideration. The aggregate amount of all Losses for which Seller shall be liable pursuant to Section 8.02 (including for breaches of Fundamental Representations) shall not exceed the Actually Received Consideration.

b. Buyer shall not be liable to the Seller Indemnitees for indemnification under Section 8.03(a) until the aggregate amount of all Losses in respect of indemnification under Section 8.03(a) exceeds the Deductible, in which event Buyer shall be required to pay or be liable for all such Losses in excess of the Deductible. The aggregate amount of all Losses for which Buyer shall be liable pursuant to Section 8.03(a) shall not exceed the Actually Received Consideration.

In the event that an insurance recovery is made by Buyer with respect to any Loss, then a refund equal to the aggregate amount of the recovery (net of all direct collection expenses) shall be remitted promptly to Seller.

e. Buyer shall not be entitled to seek indemnification with respect to any Loss of which Buyer or its Affiliates or representatives had actual knowledge at or prior to the Closing.

f. Buyer agrees that in the event of any breach giving rise to an indemnification obligation hereunder, Buyer shall take all reasonable measures to mitigate the consequences of the related breach.

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

a. Third Party Claims. If any Indemnified Party receives notice of the assertion or commencement of any Action made or brought by any Person who is not a party to this Agreement or an Affiliate of a party to this Agreement or a Representative of the foregoing (a “Third Party Claim”) against such Indemnified Party with respect to which the Indemnifying Party is obligated to provide indemnification under this Agreement, the Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice thereof, but in any event not later than thirty (30) calendar days after receipt of such notice of such Third Party Claim. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party forfeits rights or defenses by reason of such failure. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the Third Party Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to participate in, or by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party, to assume the defense of any Third Party Claim at the Indemnifying Party’s expense and by the Indemnifying Party’s own counsel, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate in good faith in such defense; provided, that if the Indemnifying Party is Seller, such Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to defend or direct the defense of any such Third Party Claim that (i) may result in injunctions or other equitable remedies in respect of the Indemnified Party or its business, (ii) the named parties to any such action (including any impleaded parties) include both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, and the Indemnified Party shall have been advised by such counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to it which are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party, (iii) such action may result in criminal proceedings, injunctions or other equitable remedies in respect of the Indemnified Party or its business, or (v) upon petition by the Indemnified Party, if an appropriate court rules that the Indemnifying Party failed or is failing to vigorously prosecute or defend such Third Party Claim, in which events the Indemnified Party shall assume the defense, In the event that the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third Party Claim, subject to Section 8.05(b), it shall have the right to take such action as it deems necessary to avoid, dispute, defend, appeal or make counterclaims pertaining to any such Third Party Claim in the name and on behalf of the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in the defense of any Third Party Claim with counsel selected by it subject to the Indemnifying Party’s right to control the defense thereof. The fees and disbursements of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party, provided, that if in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the Indemnified Party, (A) there are legal defenses available to an Indemnified Party that are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party; or (B) there exists a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party that cannot be waived, the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Indemnified Party in each jurisdiction for which the Indemnified Party determines counsel is required. If the Indemnifying Party elects not to compromise or defend such Third Party Claim, fails to promptly notify the Indemnified Party in writing of its election to defend as provided in this Agreement, or fails to diligently prosecute the defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party may, subject to Section 8.05(b), pay, compromise, defend such Third Party Claim and seek indemnification for any and all Losses based upon, arising from or relating to such Third Party Claim. Seller and Buyer shall cooperate with each other in all reasonable respects in connection with the defense of any Third Party Claim, including making available (subject to the provisions of Section 6.06) records relating to such Third Party Claim and furnishing, without expense (other than reimbursement of actual out-of-pocket expenses) to the defending party, management employees of the non-defending party as may be reasonably necessary for the preparation of the defense of such Third Party Claim.

b. Settlement of Third Party Claims. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall not enter into settlement of any Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, except as provided in this Section 8.05(b). If a firm offer is made to settle a Third Party Claim without leading to liability or the creation of a financial or other obligation on the part of the Indemnified Party and provides, in customary form, for the unconditional release of each Indemnified Party from all liabilities and obligations in connection with such Third Party Claim and the Indemnifying Party desires to accept and agree to such offer, the Indemnifying Party shall give written notice to that effect to the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnified Party fails to consent to such firm offer within ten (10) days after its receipt of such notice, the Indemnified Party may continue to contest or defend such Third Party Claim and in such event, the maximum liability of the Indemnifying Party as to such Third Party Claim shall not exceed the amount of such settlement offer. If the Indemnified Party fails to consent to such firm offer and also fails to assume defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party may settle the Third Party Claim upon the terms set forth in such firm offer to settle such Third Party Claim. If the Indemnified Party has assumed the defense pursuant to Section 8.05(a), it shall not agree to any settlement without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

c. Direct Claims. Any Action by an Indemnified Party on account of a Loss which does not result from a Third Party Claim (a “Direct Claim”) shall be asserted by the Indemnified Party giving the Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice thereof, but in any event not later than thirty (30) days after the Indemnified Party becomes aware of such Direct Claim. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party forfeits rights or defenses by reason of such failure. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the Direct Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) days after its receipt of such notice to respond in writing to such Direct Claim. The Indemnified Party shall allow the Indemnifying Party and its professional advisors to investigate the matter or circumstance alleged to give rise to the Direct Claim, and whether and to what extent any amount is payable in respect of the Direct Claim and the Indemnified Party shall assist the Indemnifying Party’s investigation by giving such information and assistance (including access to the Indemnified Party’s premises and personnel and the right to examine and copy any accounts, documents or records) as the Indemnifying Party or any of its professional advisors may reasonably request. If the Indemnifying Party does not so respond within such thirty (30) day period, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have rejected such claim, in which case the Indemnified Party shall be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to the Indemnified Party on the terms and subject to the provisions of this Agreement.

Section 8.06 Payments.

a. Once a Loss is agreed to by the Indemnifying Party or finally adjudicated to be payable pursuant to this Article VIII, the Indemnifying Party shall satisfy its obligations within ten (10) Business Days of such final, non-appealable adjudication by wire transfer of immediately available funds.

b. Any Losses payable to a Buyer Indemnitee pursuant to this Article VIII shall be satisfied from Seller; provided that Seller shall have the option to pay Buyer any Losses in cash or cancel that number of shares of Common Stock issued to Seller having the value of such Loss based on the five-day Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) of Buyer’s Common Stock for the five-day period ending on the last full trading day prior to the date such Losses are payable

c. Buyer will have the right to set off any amounts due under this ARTICLE VIII as determined pursuant to a final and nonappealable judgment, order, award or determination of a court of competent jurisdiction against any amounts then or thereafter owning from Buyer to Seller pursuant to this Agreement, including without limitation against any Milestone Payments.

Section 8.07 Tax Treatment of Indemnification Payments. All indemnification payments made under this Agreement shall be treated by the parties as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Law.

Section 8.08 Exclusive Remedies. Subject to Section 2.06 and Section 10.11, the parties acknowledge and agree that their sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all claims (other than claims arising from Fraud, criminal activity or willful misconduct on the part of a party hereto in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement, shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article VIII. In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted under Law, any and all rights, claims and causes of action for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement it may have against the other parties hereto and their Affiliates and each of their respective Representatives arising under or based upon any Law, except pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article VIII.
