On and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Buyer agrees to purchase from Seller, and Seller agrees to sell, transfer, convey, and deliver to Buyer, all of the Acquired Assets at the Closing free and clear of all Liens other than Permitted Encumbrances for the consideration specified below in this Article II.

Section 2.2 Assumption of Liabilities. On and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Buyer agrees to assume and become responsible for all Assumed Liabilities at the Closing. Buyer will not assume or have any responsibility, however, with respect to any other Liability of Seller not included within the definition of Assumed Liabilities.

Section 2.3 Purchase Price. Buyer agrees to pay to Seller a purchase price of $3,500,000, less the amount of any Net Closing Cash Deficiency (the “Purchase Price”). Not later than one Business Day prior to the Closing, Seller shall deliver to Buyer a certificate (the “Net Closing Cash Certificate”) executed by an officer of Seller certifying (a) the amount of Cash of Seller as of the Closing, (b) the aggregate amount of 2009 MA Commission Payments received by Seller prior to the Closing, (c) the aggregate amount of Closing Accounts Receivable, (d) the aggregate amount of Closing Accounts Receivable of the type set forth in the asset category “Due from Affiliate” on the Most Recent Balance Sheet, and (e) the amount of Net Closing Cash. At Closing, the Purchase Price will be paid by (i) Parent withdrawing from the Seller Accounts an amount of Cash equal to the amount described in item (a) above as set forth on the Net Closing Cash Certificate, and (ii) Buyer paying an amount equal to the Purchase Price minus $70,000 (the “Holdback Amount”) minus the amount described in items (a) and (d) above as set forth on the Net Closing Cash Certificate in cash by wire transfer or delivery of other immediately available funds to an account specified in writing by Seller. Buyer shall pay the Holdback Amount to Seller not later than one Business Day following transfer of control of the Seller Accounts to Buyer in accordance with Section 6.4.

Section 2.4

Net Closing Cash Adjustment.

(a) No later than 30 days after the Closing Date, Buyer may prepare and provide to Seller its calculation of Net Closing Cash showing the basis for difference from the amount of Net Closing Cash set forth on the Net Closing Cash Certificate (the “Buyer Net Closing Cash Statement”). If Seller disagrees with the calculation of Net Closing Cash set forth in the Buyer Net Closing Cash Statement, Seller may, within ten Business Days after delivery of the Buyer Net Closing Cash Statement, deliver a notice to Buyer disagreeing with Buyer’s calculation of Net Closing Cash and setting forth Seller’s calculation of Net Closing Cash. Any such notice of disagreement shall specify those items or amounts as to which the Seller disagrees. If Seller does not timely deliver to Buyer a notice of disagreement, the calculation of Net Closing Cash set forth in the Buyer Net Closing Cash Statement shall be deemed to be final.

(b) If a notice of disagreement shall be timely delivered pursuant to Section 2.4(a), Buyer and Seller shall, during the ten Business 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 final amount of Net Closing Cash, including by exchanging information and providing access to the books and records and personnel of the Parties. If during such period, Buyer and Seller are unable to reach such agreement, they shall promptly thereafter cause a certified public accounting firm of national reputation in the United States agreed upon by Buyer and Seller that has not done any work for, and does not have any relationship that would reasonably be expected to impair its independence with, any of Seller, Buyer, Parent or their respective Affiliates (the “Independent Public Accountants”) promptly to review the applicable portions of this Agreement and the disputed items or amounts for the purpose of calculating the Net Closing Cash. In making such calculation, the Independent Public Accountants shall consider only those items or amounts in the Buyer Net Closing Cash Statement as to which the Seller has disagreed as specified in the notice of disagreement delivered pursuant to Section 2.4(a). The Independent Public Accountants shall deliver to the Buyer and the Seller, as promptly as practicable, a report setting forth such calculation. Such report shall be final and binding upon Buyer and Seller. The cost of such review and report shall be borne by Buyer unless such report results in Seller being obligated to make a payment pursuant to Section 2.4(c), in which case such cost shall be borne by Seller.

(c) If the final Net Closing Cash is less than the Net Closing Cash as set forth on the Net Closing Cash Certificate, then, not later than two Business Days following the amount Net Closing Cash being deemed final pursuant to this Section 2.4, Seller and Parent shall pay to Buyer an amount equal to the excess of (i) the Net Closing Cash as set forth in the Net Closing Cash Certificate, over (ii) the final Net Closing Cash as determined pursuant to this Section 2.4.

Section 2.5 Closing. The closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Closing”) shall take place at the offices of Wollmuth Maher & Deutsch LLP, in New York, New York commencing at 10:00 a.m. local time on the second Business Day following the satisfaction or waiver of all conditions to the obligations of the Parties to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby (other than conditions with respect to actions the respective Parties will take at the Closing itself) or such other date as the Parties may mutually determine (the “Closing Date”).

Section 2.6 Deliveries at Closing. At the Closing, (a) Seller will deliver to Buyer the various certificates, instruments, and documents referred to in Section 7.1 below; (b) Buyer will deliver to Seller the various certificates, instruments, and documents referred to in Section 7.2 below; (c) Seller will execute, acknowledge (if appropriate), and deliver to Buyer (i) a bill of sale for the Assets in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, (ii) assignments (including Real Property transfer documents) in the forms requested by Buyer and (iii) such other instruments of sale, transfer, conveyance, and assignment as Buyer and its counsel may reasonably request; and (d) Buyer will execute, acknowledge (if appropriate), and deliver to Seller (A) an Assignment and Assumption Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B and (B) such other instruments of assumption as Seller and its counsel may reasonably request.

Section 2.7

Allocation.

(a) Buyer and Seller shall agree upon an allocation of the Purchase Price (and all other capitalized costs) among the Acquired Assets prepared in accordance with Code Section 1060 and the Treasury Regulations thereunder (and any similar provision of state, local or foreign Law, as appropriate) within 60 days after the Closing Date, which allocation shall be binding on Buyer and Seller. If Buyer and Seller cannot agree on any such allocation, then neither Buyer nor Seller shall be required to comply with Section 2.7(b).

(b) Buyer and Seller and their Affiliates shall report, act and file Tax Returns (including, but not limited to Internal Revenue Service Form 8594) in all respects and for all purposes consistent with such agreed allocation. Seller shall timely and properly prepare, execute, file and deliver all such documents, forms and other information as Buyer may reasonably request to prepare such agreed allocation. Neither Buyer nor Seller shall take any position (whether in audits, tax returns or otherwise) that is inconsistent with such agreed allocation unless required to do so by applicable Law.

(c) Dollar Limitations. Seller shall not be required to provide indemnification to any Buyer Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 9.2(a) until the aggregate amount of Buyer Loss incurred by the Buyer Indemnified Parties pursuant to such provision exceeds $70,000 in the aggregate (the “Basket”); once the Basket is exceeded the Buyer Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to recover all Buyer Losses so identified from the first dollar of such Buyer Losses without regard to the Basket. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Basket shall not apply to claims arising out of or resulting from fraud by Seller or Parent or the Specified Representations being breached. Buyer shall not be required to provide indemnification to any Seller Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 9.2(b) until the aggregate amount of Seller Loss incurred by the Seller Indemnified Parties pursuant to such provision exceeds the Basket; once the Basket is exceeded the Seller Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to recover for all Seller Losses so identified from the first dollar of such Seller Losses without regard to the Basket.

(d) Claims. No Party will be liable for any claim for indemnification under this Section 9.2 unless written notice of a claim for indemnification is promptly delivered by the Party seeking indemnification (the “Indemnified Person”) to the Party from whom indemnification is sought (the “Indemnifying Person”) prior to the expiration of the applicable survival period, if any, set forth in Section 9.1 (a “Third Party Claim”)); provided that no delay on the part of the Indemnified Party in notifying the Indemnifying Party will relieve the Indemnifying Party from any obligation hereunder except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced thereby. All notices given pursuant to this Section 9.2(d) will describe with reasonable specificity the basis of the Indemnified Party’s claim for indemnification. Upon receipt of notice of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party will be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent desired, to assume the defense thereof with counsel of its choice; provided that such counsel is reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party. However, the Indemnified Party may continue to participate in (but not control) such defense at its own cost and expense, which costs and expenses shall not be subject to the indemnification provisions in this Article IX unless (i) the Indemnifying Party does not actually assume the defense thereof in a commercially reasonable manner following notice of such election or (ii) counsel for the Indemnified Party has reasonably determined that a conflict could result from having the same counsel represent the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party will have the right to undertake the defense of such Third Party Claim, by counsel or other representatives of its own choosing (subject to the right of the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of or opposition to such Third Party Claim at any time prior to settlement, compromise or final determination thereof). Whether or not the Indemnifying Person chooses to defend or prosecute any such claim, suit, action or proceeding, all of the parties hereto shall cooperate in the defense or prosecution thereof.

(e) Losses Net of Insurance. The amount of any Buyer Loss or Seller Loss for which indemnification is provided pursuant to this Section 9.2 shall be net of any insurance proceeds, less the reasonable costs of collection thereof, to the extent actually received by the Buyer Indemnified Party or the Seller Indemnified Party, as applicable.

(f) Exclusivity. The parties hereto agree that, from and after the Closing Date, with respect to any breach or violation of any representation or warranty or any covenant, obligation or other term set forth in this Agreement, the only relief available to the party indemnified for such breach in respect of such breach shall be (i) damages, but only to the extent properly claimable hereunder as may be limited pursuant to this Section 9.2; (ii) specific performance to enforce the terms of this Agreement; or (iii) injunctive relief or declaratory relief if a court of competent jurisdiction in its discretion grants the same.

(g) Treatment of Indemnity Payments. Seller, Parent and Buyer agree to treat all payments made by either of them to or for the benefit of the other under this Section 9.2 as increases or decreases, as applicable, to the Purchase Price.

Section 10.8 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the domestic laws of the State of New York without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York.

Section 10.9 Amendments and Waivers. No amendment of any provision of this Agreement shall be valid unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Buyer, Seller and the Parent; provided that any amendment or waiver that would affect the obligations of Guarantor pursuant to Section 10.17 in a manner adverse to Guarantor shall not be effective unless approved in writing by Guarantor. No waiver by any Party of any provision of this Agreement or any default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder, whether intentional or not, shall be valid unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Party making such waiver nor shall such waiver be deemed to extend to any prior or subsequent default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder or affect in any way any rights arising by virtue of any prior or subsequent such default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty or covenant.

Section 10.10 Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction.

Section 10.11 Expenses. Buyer will bear its own costs and expenses (including legal fees and expenses) incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. Parent shall be responsible for all costs and expenses of Parent and Seller (including all of their legal fees and expenses) in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and any and all amounts owed by Parent or Seller to Friedman, Billings, Ramsey & Co., Inc. in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, all transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other such Taxes, and all conveyance fees, recording charges and other fees and charges (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be equally divided by Buyer and Seller and one-half of each such item shall be paid by each of Buyer and Seller when due. Each of Buyer and Seller will, at its own expense, file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to all such Taxes, fees and charges for which such Party is directly liable and shall be reimbursed by the other Party for such reimbursing Party’s one-half share of such Taxes, fees and charges. If required by applicable Law, the Parties will, and will cause their Affiliates to, join in the execution of any such Tax Returns and other documentation.

Section 10.12 Construction. The Parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the Parties and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any Party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement. Any reference to any federal, state, local, or foreign statute or law shall be deemed also to refer to all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, unless the context requires otherwise. The word “including” shall mean including without limitation. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the mere listing (or inclusion of a copy) of a document or other item shall not be deemed adequate to disclose an exception to a representation or warranty made herein (unless the representation or warranty has to do with the existence of the document or other item itself). The Parties intend that each representation, warranty, and covenant contained herein shall have independent significance.

Section 10.13 Incorporation of Exhibits and Schedules. The Exhibits and Schedules identified in this Agreement are incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof.

Section 10.14 Specific Performance. Each Party acknowledges and agrees that the other Party would be damaged irreparably in the event any provision of this Agreement is not performed in accordance with its specific terms or otherwise is breached, so that a Party shall be entitled to injunctive relief to prevent breaches of the provisions of this Agreement and to enforce specifically this Agreement and the terms and provisions hereof in addition to any other remedy to which such Party may be entitled, at law or in equity. In particular, the Parties acknowledge that the Business is unique and recognize and affirm that in the event Parent breaches this Agreement, money damages would be inadequate and Buyer would have no adequate remedy at law, so that Buyer shall have the right, in addition to any other rights and remedies existing in its favor, to enforce its rights and the other Parties’ obligations hereunder not only by action for damages but also by action for specific performance, injunctive, and/or other equitable relief.

Section 10.15 Submission to Jurisdiction. Each Party to this Agreement, by its execution hereof, hereby (a) irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state courts of the State of New York, New York County or the United States District Court located in the State of New York, New York County for the purpose of any and all actions, suits or proceedings arising in whole or in part out of, related to, based upon or in connection with this Agreement or the subject matter hereof; (b) waives to the extent not prohibited by applicable law, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise, in any such action, any claim that it is not subject personally to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts, that its property is exempt or immune from attachment or execution, that any such action brought in one of the above-named courts should be dismissed on grounds of forum non conveniens, should be transferred to any court other than one of the above-named courts, or should be stayed by reason of the pendency of some other proceeding in any other court other than one of the above-named courts, or that this Agreement or the subject matter hereof may not be enforced in or by such court; and (c) agrees not to commence any such action other than before one of the above-named courts nor to make any motion or take any other action seeking or intending to cause the transfer or removal of any such action to any court other than one of the above-named courts whether on the grounds of inconvenient forum or otherwise. Each Party hereby (i) consents to service of process in any such action in any manner permitted by New York law; (ii) agrees that service of process made in accordance with clause (i) or made by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, at its address specified pursuant to Section 10.7 hereof, will constitute good and valid service of process in any such action; and (iii) waives and agrees not to assert (by way of motion, as a defense, or otherwise) in any such action any claim that service of process made in accordance with clause (i) or (ii) does not constitute good and valid service of process.

Section 10.16 Waiver of Trial by Jury. THE PARTIES HERETO WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, REGARDLESS OF WHICH PARTY INITIATES SUCH PROCEEDING.
