For purposes of this Section 1.10, the “Working Capital of the Seller” shall have the meaning set forth in Schedule 1.10(a). In the event that the Buyer disputes the correctness of the Proposed Final Working Capital Amount, the Buyer shall notify the Seller in writing of its objections within thirty (30) days after receipt of the statement setting forth the calculation of the Proposed Final Working Capital Amount and shall set forth, in writing and in reasonable detail, each of the reasons for the Buyer’s objections. If the Buyer fails to deliver such notice of objections within such time, the Buyer shall be deemed to have accepted the statement setting forth the calculation of the Proposed Final Working Capital Amount. The Buyer and the Seller shall endeavor in good faith to resolve any disputed matters within twenty (20) days after the Seller’s receipt of the Buyer’s notice of objections. If the Buyer and the Seller are unable to so resolve the disputed matters, the Buyer and the Seller shall select a nationally known independent accounting firm (which firm shall not then be providing any services to the Buyer, the Shareholder or the Seller) (the “Working Capital Independent Accountant”) to resolve the matters in dispute (in a manner consistent with Section 1.10(b)), including the appropriate amount of interest, if any, due on the disputed amount (determined in accordance with Section 1.10(c) or Section 1.10(d), as the case may be), and the determination of the Working Capital Independent Accountant in respect of the correctness of each matter remaining in dispute shall be conclusive and binding on the Buyer and the Seller. The Working Capital of the Seller as of the close of business on the day immediately preceding the Closing Date, as finally determined pursuant to this Section 1.10(a) (whether by failure of the Buyer to deliver notice of objection, by agreement of the Buyer and the Seller or by determination of the Working Capital Independent Accountant), is referred to herein as the “Final Working Capital Amount.”

(b) The Proposed Final Working Capital Amount and the Final Working Capital Amount shall be calculated in accordance with Schedule 1.10(a) and using the significant accounting policies and accounting practices set forth on Schedule 1.10(b). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the reserves of the Seller used in connection with the determination of the Proposed Final Working Capital Amount and the Final Working Capital Amount shall be the same as the reserves set forth on the balance sheet of the Seller dated December 31, 2007, absent a significant change in circumstances between December 31, 2007, and the Closing Date.

(c) If the Final Working Capital Amount is greater than Four Million Three Hundred Eighty Two Thousand Dollars ($4,382,000), the excess shall be paid by the Buyer to the Seller by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated in writing by the Seller within five (5) Business Days of the date on which the Final Working Capital Amount is finally determined, together with simple interest thereon during the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the date of payment (the “Interest Period”) at a rate equal to the 30-day London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) in effect from time to time during the Interest Period.

(d) If the Final Working Capital Amount is less than Four Million Three Hundred Eighty Two Thousand Dollars ($4,382,000), the deficiency shall be paid by the Seller to the Buyer by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by the Buyer within five (5) business days of the date on which the Final Working Capital Amount is finally determined, together with simple interest thereon during the Interest Period at a rate equal to LIBOR in effect from time to time during the Interest Period.

(e) Subject to any applicable privileges (including the attorney-client privilege and the work product privilege), the Seller shall make available to the Buyer and, upon request, to the Working Capital Independent Accountant, the books, records, documents and work papers underlying the preparation of the statement setting forth the Proposed Final Working Capital Amount. Subject to any applicable privileges (including the attorney-client privilege and the work product privilege), the Buyer shall make available to the Seller and, upon request, to the Working Capital Independent Accountant, the books, records, documents and work papers created or prepared by or for the Buyer in connection with its review of the Proposed Final Working Capital Amount.

(f) If, as finally determined by the Working Capital Independent Accountant, all of the matters in dispute shall be resolved in favor of the Buyer, then the Seller shall pay all fees and expenses of the Working Capital Independent Accountant. If, as finally determined by the Working Capital Independent Accountant, all of the matters in dispute shall be resolved in favor of the Seller, then the Buyer shall pay all fees and expenses of the Working Capital Independent Accountant. If, as finally determined by the Working Capital Independent Accountant, the matters in dispute shall be resolved partially in favor of the Buyer and partially in favor of the Seller, then the Buyer and the Seller shall each pay one-half (1/2) of the fees and expenses of the Working Capital Independent Accountant.

Schedule 2.1(f) sets forth those income, sales and use, employment and other Tax returns that have been examined by any taxing authority since December 31, 2003. All filed Tax returns and reports of the Seller are true, correct and complete in all respects and there is no outstanding claimed deficiency with respect to any Tax period, no formal or informal notice of a proposed deficiency, no notification of any pending audit of any Tax returns or reports and no waiver or extension granted by the Seller with respect to any statute of limitations affecting the assessment of any Tax. The liabilities and reserves for Taxes in the Financial Statements are sufficient in the aggregate for the payment of all unpaid federal, state and local Taxes (including any interest or penalties thereon), whether or not disputed, for which the Seller may be liable in its own right or as transferee of the assets of, or successor to, any corporation, person, association, partnership, joint venture or other entity.

The Seller does not have any actual or potential material liability for any Tax obligation of any taxpayer (including any affiliated group of corporations or other entities which included the Seller during a prior period). There are no Tax claims pending or, to Seller’s Knowledge, threatened against the Seller and there are no material Tax claims threatened to be asserted against the Seller. There are no material issues which have been raised in prior periods or audits which by application of similar principles are expected to result in a material Tax claim for any other period.

(iv) Neither the Buyer nor the Parent will be required to deduct and withhold any amount pursuant to section 1445(a) of the Code upon the transfer of the Assets to the Buyer.

(v) There are no liens for Taxes upon the Assets.

The inventory reflected in the Financial Statements has been acquired in the ordinary course of business of the Seller in accordance with its normal inventory practices and is stated in accordance with U.S. GAAP consistently applied.

(h) Non-Infringement of Patents, Trademarks and Other Intellectual Property. Except as set forth in Schedule 2.1(h), the Seller is the sole owner of the Intellectual Property free and clear of all liens, encumbrances and rights of others. The Intellectual Property does not infringe or violate the rights of any Person. There is no pending or, to Seller’s Knowledge, threatened claim of infringement or violation of the rights of others with respect to the Intellectual Property, and, to Seller’s Knowledge, there is no use or exploitation by another Person which would conflict with the Seller’s claim to ownership of any right to use any of the Intellectual Property or which is similar to the Intellectual Property so as to create a reasonable possibility of confusion as to the source of the ownership of any of the Intellectual Property by any member of the public. Except as set forth on Schedule 2.1(h), neither the Seller nor the Shareholder has licensed or permitted any other Person to use or exploit any of the Intellectual Property currently or at any time in the future, and neither the Seller nor the Shareholder has suffered any such exploitation to exist. The Seller has never been involved in any controversy with another Person involving the use or exploitation of any of the Intellectual Property, and there are not any past or present disputes with respect to the Intellectual Property. Schedule 2.1 (h) sets forth a listing of all registrations in any governmental office or registry with respect to any of the Intellectual Property. All patents and patent applications of the Seller have been validly and properly assigned to the Seller by the inventor.

The right of the Seller to use or exploit the Intellectual Property is not dependent upon any license, permit, grant or agreement, except as set forth in Schedule 2.1(h), and the Seller owns or licenses all of the Intellectual Property necessary to the conduct of its business as conducted on the date hereof. Except as set forth on Schedule 2.1(h), neither the Seller nor the Shareholder is obligated to make any royalty or other payments with respect to any of the Intellectual Property. The Seller is not in default under any license or sublicense agreement involving any of the Intellectual Property with a third party. To Seller’s Knowledge, there is no material defect in any of the Intellectual Property (e.g., including the abandonment of a trademark or a defect which could give rise to cancellation of a trademark registration or invalidation of a patent). The actual design of the products of the Seller and the manufacturing processes used therefor are proprietary to the Seller.

To Seller’s Knowledge, there is no patent, patent application, copyright, copyright application, trademark, trademark application or other intellectual property right which would reasonably be expected to be the basis for an infringement claim with respect to the Business.

(i) Operations and Use of Properties. Except as set forth on Schedule 2.1(i), the operations, business and properties, including leased properties, of the Seller comply in all material respects with all applicable laws or orders or other governmental or administrative laws, ordinances, regulations or orders, including zoning, land use and building codes and those relating to motor vehicle registration, permitting, inspection and operation. The assets of the Seller are sufficient for the conduct of its business as it is currently conducted and as it is proposed to be conducted in accordance with Seller’s current commitments.

(j) Licenses, Permits and Authorizations. The Seller in its name has all Licenses, all of which are listed in Schedule 2.1(j). Each License is valid and in full force and effect. Except as set forth in Schedule 2.1(j), the continuation, validity and effectiveness of each License will in no way be affected by the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(k)  Insurance. The Seller is covered by valid and currently effective insurance policies issued in favor of the Seller for such risks and in such amounts which are, in the best judgment of the Seller after advice from one or more qualified insurance broker(s), customary in the locales of operation of the Seller for companies operating similar businesses and operations. Since it commenced operations, the Seller has been continuously insured for product liability risks with respect to products sold by it and the insurance coverage will continue beyond the Closing Date for the applicable period of liability with respect to products sold by the Seller prior to the Closing. The policies of insurance of the Seller in effect since December 31, 2005, are listed and described in Schedule 2.1(k). All such policies, including any insurance policies previously maintained by the Seller, provide “per occurrence” coverage. The Seller has never been denied insurance coverage nor has such coverage been conditioned upon special terms or rates of premium. Schedule 2.1(k) lists and briefly describes all claims made by the Seller under insurance policies since December 31, 2005.

(l) Environmental Matters.

(i) The Seller (including its operations, businesses and properties, whether owned or leased, now or in the past) has been and is in compliance with all applicable Laws implemented and/or enforced by any ministry, department or administrative or regulatory agency relating to the protection of the environment, occupational health and safety or the manufacture, processing, distribution, use, generation, treatment, storage, disposal, discharge, transport or handling of any pollutants, contaminants, petroleum, chemicals or industrial, toxic or hazardous wastes or substances (such Laws being hereinafter referred to as “Environmental Laws” and such wastes of substances being hereinafter referred to as “Hazardous Substances”), except where the failure to so comply would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

ARTICLE VII

NON-COMPETITION AGREEMENT

7.1 Non-Competition.

(a) The Parties recognize that the value of the Business being purchased by the Buyer is dependent upon the particular method in which the Seller and the Shareholder have conducted the Business and the contacts of the Seller with its customers and that the Buyer is entering into this Agreement with a view toward that value. Accordingly, neither the Shareholder nor the Seller shall, for a period of five (5) years from and after the Closing Date, directly or indirectly:

(i) Have any interest (financial or otherwise) in, or accept employment from, or serve in any capacity (such as owner, investor, principal, agent, consultant, partner or otherwise) with, any Person (other than the Buyer) which is engaged in the Business as conducted by the Seller at any time prior to the Closing any place in the world; provided, however, that Shareholder may continue to operate News/Sports Microwave Rentals, Inc. (“NSMR”) in the manner that such company is operated on the Closing Date, but may not expand the business of NSMR in a manner that would violate the provisions of this Section 7.1.

(ii) Sell to or solicit purchases of products of the Business which are sold by the Buyer to customers who were customers of the Seller at the time of the Closing or since December 31, 2003.

(iii) Initiate any contact with any employee of the Buyer for the purpose of hiring that employee in any capacity.

(b) The Seller and the Shareholder acknowledge that the identity of the customers of the Seller, the engineering drawings and know-how of the Seller and the pricing policies, sales and marketing strategies, employee training practices and other operating practices and information of the Seller are confidential and valuable proprietary information of the Seller. The Seller and the Shareholder will not disclose the identity of the customers, the engineering drawings and know-how of the Seller or the sales policies, strategies and employee training and operating practices of the Seller to any Person unless permitted in writing to do so by the Buyer. The Seller and the Shareholder will transfer to the Buyer at the Closing, and will not retain, any copies, documents, manuals, summaries, memos, notes, computer programs, disks or database information in any form containing any of the above described customer identities, engineering drawings or know-how, policies, strategies or employee training or operating practices and information.

(c) The Seller and the Shareholder recognize that their failure to comply with the provisions of this Section 7.1 shall cause irreparable harm to the Buyer and that money damages alone would be insufficient to compensate the Buyer. The Seller and the Shareholder therefore agree that any court having jurisdiction may enter a preliminary or permanent restraining order or injunction against either or both of the Shareholder and the Seller in the event of any actual or threatened breach of any of the provisions of this Section 7.1. Any such relief shall not preclude the Buyer from seeking any other relief at law or equity with respect to any such claim.

(d) If any provision of this Section 7.1 is deemed to be in violation of any law or unenforceable for any reason, the remainder of this Section 7.1 shall remain in full force and effect and shall continue to be binding upon the Seller and the Shareholder, and the court shall substitute a reasonable, judicially enforceable limitation in place of the unenforceable provision in order to serve the intent of the Parties as expressed herein and the reasonable business needs and expectations of the Buyer in purchasing the Assets.

(e) The covenants of the Seller and the Shareholder in this Section 7.1 are not intended to supersede any covenant in any other agreement that they may enter into with the Buyer. The covenants in this Section 7.1 are given by the Seller and the Shareholder in partial consideration for the purchase of the Assets, and the covenants in this Section 7.1 shall be cumulative with any covenants given pursuant to any other agreement that the Seller and the Shareholder may enter into with the Buyer.

8.5 Claims.

(a) Any Party seeking indemnification hereunder (the “Indemnified Party”) shall give the Party from whom indemnification is requested (the “Indemnifying Party”) written notice as soon as reasonably quantifiable after the Indemnified Party has received notice or knowledge of the matter that has given or is reasonably likely to give rise to a right of indemnification under this Agreement. Such notice shall state the estimated amount of any Losses, if known, and the method of computation thereof, all with reasonable particularity, and shall contain a reference to the provisions of this Agreement in respect of which such right of indemnification is claimed. The failure of the Indemnified Party to notify the Indemnifying Party in a timely manner of the matter in respect of which a right of indemnification hereunder is requested shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced thereby.

(b) With respect to any Losses arising from any third party claim (a “Third Party Claim”), the Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party written notice as soon as reasonably quantifiable after receiving notice of any Third Party Claim. The failure of the Indemnified Party to notify the Indemnifying Party in a timely manner of such Third Party Claim in respect of which a right of indemnification hereunder is requested shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced thereby. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to control the defense of such Third Party Claim through counsel of its choice and at the expense of the Indemnifying Party. Throughout the defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall consult with the Indemnified Party, keep the Indemnified Party reasonably informed of the progress and strategy in respect of such Third Party Claim and use commercially reasonable efforts to take the Indemnified Party’s input with respect to the progress and strategy in respect of such Third Party Claim into account. The Indemnifying Party shall not consent to any settlement, compromise or discharge (including the consent to entry of any judgment) of any Third Party Claim (except any which requires only the payment of money by the Indemnifying Party) without the Indemnified Party’s prior written consent (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to control the defense of all Third Party Claims for Product Warranty Claims or breach of contract claims under customer contracts brought by customers of Buyer or by customers of the Business at any time prior to or after the Closing (“Customer Claims”) through counsel of its choice and at the expense of the Indemnifying Party. Throughout the defense of such Customer Claim, the Indemnified Party shall consult with the Indemnifying Party, keep the Indemnifying Party reasonably informed of the progress and strategy in respect of such Customer Claim and use commercially reasonable efforts to take the Indemnifying Party’s input with respect to the progress and strategy in respect of such Customer Claim into account.
