C. Parent, Merger Sub and the Company intend to enter into a business combination transaction by means of a merger (the “Merger”) of Merger Sub with and into the Company in accordance with this Agreement and the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”), with the Company to be the surviving corporation of the Merger.

D. Pursuant to the Merger, each outstanding share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share of the Company (“Company Common Stock”) other than Company Common Stock held in the Company’s treasury or Dissenting Shares (as hereinafter defined) shall be converted into the right to receive the applicable portion of the Merger Consideration (as determined by and defined in Section 1.4), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein.

E. Parent, CEA Merger Sub and CEA intend to enter into a business combination transaction by means of a merger (the “CEA Merger”) of CEA Merger Sub with and into CEA in accordance with this Agreement and the DGCL, with CEA to be the surviving corporation of the CEA Merger.

F. Pursuant to the CEA Merger, each outstanding share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share of CEA (“CEA Common Stock”) not owned by the Company, other than CEA Common Stock held in CEA’s treasury or Dissenting Shares shall be converted into the right to receive the applicable portion of the Merger Consideration, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein.

G. The respective boards of directors of Parent, Merger Sub, CEA Merger Sub, CEA and the Company have approved the Merger and the CEA Merger (as appropriate) and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement on the terms set forth herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the covenants, promises and representations set forth herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of

which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows (defined terms used in this Agreement are listed alphabetically in Article VIII, together with the Section and, if applicable, paragraph number in which the definition of each such term is located).

ARTICLE I
THE MERGER

1.1 The Mergers.

(a) At the Effective Time (as defined in Section 1.2(a)) and subject to and upon the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the applicable provisions of the DGCL, Merger Sub shall be merged with and into the Company, the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub shall cease, and the Company shall continue as the surviving corporation. The Company as the surviving corporation after the Merger is hereinafter sometimes referred to as the “Surviving Corporation.”

CEA as the surviving corporation after the CEA Merger is hereinafter sometimes referred to as the “CEA Surviving Corporation.”

1.2 Effective Time; Closing.

(a) Subject to the conditions of this Agreement, the parties hereto shall cause the Merger to be consummated by filing with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on the Merger Closing Date, a properly executed Certificate of Merger (the “Certificate of Merger”) in such form as may be agreed by the parties hereto and as required by the relevant provisions of the DGCL (the time of such filing with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, or such later time as may be agreed in writing by Company and Parent and specified in the Certificate of Merger, being the “Effective Time”). The term “Agreement” as used herein refers to this Agreement and Plan of Merger, as the same may be amended from time to time, and all schedules and exhibits hereto (including the Company Disclosure Schedule and the Parent Disclosure Schedule, as defined in the preambles to Articles II and III hereof, respectively). Unless this Agreement shall have been terminated pursuant to Article VI, the closing of the Merger (the “Merger Closing”) shall occur concurrently with the CEA Closing and shall take place at the offices of Bryan Cave LLP, counsel to the Company, at 1201 West Peachtree Street, Atlanta, Georgia 30309, at a time and date to be specified by the parties, which shall be no later than the second Business Day after the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Article V, or at such other time, date and location as the parties hereto agree in writing (the “Merger Closing Date”); provided, however, that, provided that all such conditions to closing have been satisfied or waived prior to such time, the parties acknowledge that the Merger Closing Date will occur on October 1, 2010 except as otherwise agreed to by the parties.

(b) Subject to the conditions of this Agreement, the parties hereto shall cause the CEA Merger to be consummated by filing with the Secretary of State of the State of

Unless this Agreement shall have been terminated pursuant to Article VI, the closing of the CEA Merger (the “CEA Closing” and together with the Merger Closing, the “Closing”) shall occur concurrently with the Merger Closing and shall take place at the offices of Bryan Cave LLP, counsel to the Company, at 1201 West Peachtree Street, Atlanta, Georgia 30309, at a time and date to be specified by the parties, which shall be no later than the second Business Day after the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Article V, or at such other time, date and location as the parties hereto agree in writing (the “CEA Closing Date” and together with the Merger Closing Date, the “Closing Date”); provided, however, that, provided that all such conditions to closing have been satisfied or waived prior to such time, the parties acknowledge that the CEA Closing Date will occur on October 1, 2010 except as otherwise agreed to by the parties.

1.3 Effects of the Mergers.

(a) (i) At the Effective Time, the effect of the Merger shall be as provided in this Agreement and Section 259 of the DGCL. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and subject thereto, at the Effective Time all the property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of the Company and Merger Sub shall vest in the Surviving Corporation, and all debts, liabilities and duties of the Company and Merger Sub shall become the debts, liabilities and duties of the Surviving Corporation.

(iv) After giving effect to the payments set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) to each holder of CEA Shares (other than Dissenting Shares, CEA Shares owned by the Company and CEA Shares held in CEA’s treasury, if any), a portion of Merger Consideration (the “CEA Stock Merger Consideration”) equal to the product of (A) the amount determined in accordance with Schedule 1.6(a)(ii) hereto (the “Cash Per Fully-Diluted CEA Share”), multiplied by (B) the number of shares of CEA Common Stock held by such holder immediately prior to the CEA Effective Time (but not including any CEA Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of any unexercised CEA Options held by such holder at the CEA Effective Time).

(v) After giving effect to the payments set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) to each holder of CEA Options, a portion of the Merger Consideration (the “Option Merger Consideration”) in respect of their CEA Options (whether vested or unvested) equal to (A) the product of the excess, if any, of (1) the Cash Per Fully-Diluted CEA Share over, (2) the exercise price per share for each such CEA Option held by such holder multiplied by (B) the aggregate number of shares of CEA Common Stock issuable upon exercise of each such CEA Option held by such holder as of the CEA Effective Time, subject to applicable income and employment taxes, if any, required to be withheld under applicable law (“applicable taxes and withholdings”); provided, however, that if the exercise price per share of any such CEA Option is equal to or greater than the Cash Per Fully Diluted Common Share, such CEA Option shall be cancelled without any payment therefor.

(b) (i) Prior to the Effective Time and the CEA Effective Time, each of the Company and CEA shall hand deliver or mail to each holder of record of an outstanding

(ii) Upon surrender to the Paying Agent or CEA’s payroll agent, as the case may be, of a Certificate which immediately prior to the Effective Time or the CEA Effective Time, as applicable, represented Company Shares, CEA Shares or CEA Options that are not Dissenting Shares, Company Shares held in the Company’s treasury, CEA Shares owned by the Company or CEA Shares held in CEA’s treasury, together with a Letter of Transmittal duly executed and, in the case of the Principal Equityholders, a duly executed Release and Agreement, such Certificate shall in exchange therefor be entitled to receive, such percentage of the Merger Consideration into which such holder’s Company Shares, CEA Shares or CEA Options evidenced by such Certificate shall have been converted as a result of the Merger and the CEA Merger pursuant to Section 1.6(a) hereof, less (A) such holder’s portion of the Aggregate Escrow Amount as set forth on Schedule 1.6(b), (B) such holder’s portion of the Former Securityholders’ Escrow Amount as set forth on Schedule 1.6(b), (C) such holder’s portion of the CEA Closing Payment Amount, and (D) in the case of CEA Options, the applicable taxes and withholdings.

(iii) No interest shall be paid or accrued on any amount payable upon the surrender of a Certificate. If payment is to be made to a person other than the person in whose name a Certificate surrendered is registered, it shall be a condition of payment that the Certificate so surrendered shall be properly endorsed or otherwise in proper form for transfer and that the Person requesting such payment shall pay all transfer and other taxes required by reason of the payment to a Person other than the registered holder of the Certificate surrendered, or establish to the satisfaction of Parent that such tax has been paid or is not applicable, or provide assurances satisfactory to Parent that any such tax will be paid by such Person. After the Effective Time and the CEA Effective Time, until surrendered in accordance with the provisions of this Section 1.6, each Certificate representing any Company Shares, CEA Shares or CEA Options (other than Certificates representing (i) Company Shares owned by Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company, Parent, Merger Sub or CEA Merger Sub, (ii) CEA Shares or CEA Options owned by Parent, CEA Merger Sub, the Company, CEA or any Subsidiary of the Company, CEA, Parent or CEA Merger Sub, and (iii) Dissenting Shares, if any) shall represent for all purposes only the right to receive, as provided by this Agreement, the allocable portion of the Merger Consideration. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, it is acknowledged and agreed that (i) Parent may withhold at Closing any portion of the Merger Consideration otherwise payable to any stockholder of the Company or

CEA that has not delivered a duly executed Letter of Transmittal and, if such stockholder (including, in the case of CEA Holdings, all members of CEA Holdings that are Principal Equityholders) is a Principal Equityholder, a duly executed Release and Agreement, executed by such stockholder (including, in the case of CEA Holdings, all members of CEA Holdings that are Principal Equityholders), provided, that, subject to clause (ii) below, Parent will be required to pay any such Merger Consideration withheld by Parent to the Securityholders’ Representative, on behalf of such stockholder, at such time following the Closing that such duly executed Letter of Transmittal and, if applicable, Release and Agreement, executed by such stockholder or equityholder (including, in the case of CEA Holdings, all members of CEA Holdings that are Principal Equityholders), is delivered to Parent, and (ii) neither Parent nor any party hereto shall be liable to a holder of Company Shares, CEA Shares or CEA Options for any amount paid to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law.

(c) The Securityholders’ Representative shall act as agent (the “Paying Agent”), and may appoint designees to act on its behalf, for the payment of the Company Stock Merger Consideration and the CEA Stock Merger Consideration other than the CEA Stock Merger Consideration to be paid to Optionees, which shall be paid pursuant to Section 1.6(d), (less the applicable portion of the Aggregate Escrow Amount and the Former Securityholders’ Escrow Amount and the applicable portion of the CEA Closing Payment Amounts) upon surrender of Certificates and the cancellation of the Company Shares and CEA Shares, and, at the Effective Time and the CEA Effective Time, Parent shall provide to the Paying Agent, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, the amounts necessary for the payment of the Company Stock Merger Consideration and the CEA Stock Merger Consideration (less (i) the applicable portion of the Aggregate Escrow Amount, (ii) the applicable portion of the Former Securityholders’ Escrow Amount, (iii) the applicable portion of the CEA Closing Payment Amounts, and (iv) any amounts withheld pursuant to the provisions set forth in Section 1.6(b)(iii) above). The allocable portion of the Company Stock Merger Consideration and the CEA Stock Merger Consideration (reduced by (i) the applicable portion of the Aggregate Escrow Amount, (ii) the applicable portion of the Former Securityholders’ Escrow Amount, (iii) the applicable portion of the CEA Closing Payment Amounts, and (iv) any amount withheld by Parent pursuant to the proviso set forth in Section 1.6(b)(iii) above) shall be paid by the Paying Agent to each holder of Company Shares and CEA Shares (other than Parent) entitled to receive such Merger Consideration in accordance with the terms set forth herein in cash, by wire transfer or other immediately available funds to a bank or other account designated by such holder.

(d) CEA’s payroll agent shall act as agent for the payment of the Option Merger Consideration (in each case less all applicable taxes and withholdings, the applicable portion of the Aggregate Escrow Amount and the Former Securityholders’ Escrow Amount and the applicable portion of the CEA Closing Payment Amounts) upon the cancellation of the CEA Options, and, at the CEA Effective Time, Parent shall provide to CEA’s payroll agent, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, the amounts necessary for the payment of the Option Merger Consideration (less the applicable portion of the Aggregate Escrow Amount and the Former Securityholders’ Escrow Amount and the applicable portion of the CEA Closing Payment Amounts). The allocable portion of the Option Merger Consideration (reduced by all applicable taxes and withholdings, and the applicable portion of the Aggregate Escrow Amount and the Former Securityholders’ Escrow Amount and the applicable portion of the CEA Closing Payment Amounts) shall be paid by CEA’s payroll agent to each holder of CEA Options in cash,

by wire transfer or other immediately available funds to a bank or other account designated by such holder in accordance with CEA’s payroll procedures, including the deduction of any applicable taxes and withholdings.

(e) At and after the Effective Time, there shall be no transfers on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Corporation of Company Shares. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates are presented to the Surviving Corporation, they shall be canceled and exchanged as provided in this Section 1.6.

(f) At and after the CEA Effective Time, there shall be no transfers on the stock transfer books of the CEA Surviving Corporation of CEA Shares or CEA Options. If, after the CEA Effective Time, Certificates are presented to the CEA Surviving Corporation, they shall be canceled and exchanged as provided in this Section 1.6.

(g) If, between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, the outstanding shares of the Company’s or CEA’s capital stock have been changed into a different number of shares or a different class, by reason of any stock dividend, subdivision, reclassification, recapitalization, split, combination or exchange of shares, the per share Company Stock Merger Consideration and CEA Stock Merger Consideration, as applicable, will be correspondingly adjusted to reflect such stock dividend, subdivision, reclassification, recapitalization, split, combination or exchange of shares.

1.7 Options. Prior to the CEA Effective Time, the Board of Directors of CEA (or, if appropriate, any committee thereof) shall adopt appropriate resolutions (in form reasonably acceptable to Parent, which resolutions shall be delivered to Parent prior to the Closing) and take all other actions necessary to provide for the conversion, effective at the CEA Effective Time, of all the outstanding CEA Options heretofore granted which are not exercised prior to the CEA Effective Time into the right to receive a proportionate share of the Option Merger Consideration as contemplated by Section 1.6 hereof (provided, however, that if the exercise price per share of any such CEA Option is equal to or greater than the Cash Per Fully Diluted Common Share, such CEA Option shall be cancelled without any payment therefore), and the termination of any option plan, program, agreement or arrangement providing for the issuance or grant of any other interest in respect of equity securities of CEA as of the CEA Effective Time.

1.8 Shares Subject to Appraisal Rights.

(a) Notwithstanding any provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, Dissenting Shares (as hereinafter defined) shall not be entitled to receive the Merger Consideration and the holders thereof shall be entitled only to such rights as are granted by the DGCL. Each holder of Dissenting Shares who becomes entitled to payment for such shares pursuant to the DGCL shall receive payment therefor from the CEA Surviving Corporation in accordance with the DGCL; provided, however, that (i) if any stockholder of CEA who asserts appraisal rights in connection with the CEA Merger (a “Dissenter”) shall have failed to establish his entitlement to such rights as provided in the DGCL, or (ii) if any such Dissenter shall have effectively withdrawn his demand for payment for such shares or waived or lost his right to payment for his shares under the appraisal rights process under the DGCL, the CEA Shares held by such Dissenter shall be treated as if they had been converted, as of the CEA Effective Time,

into a right to receive the Merger Consideration as provided in Section 1.6. CEA shall give Parent prompt notice of any demands for payment received by CEA from a Person asserting appraisal rights, and Parent shall have the right to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands. The Company and CEA shall not, except with the prior written consent of Parent, make any payment with respect to, or settle or offer to settle, any such demands.

(b) As used herein, “Dissenting Shares” means any CEA Shares held by stockholders of CEA who are entitled to appraisal rights under the DGCL, and who have properly exercised, perfected and not subsequently withdrawn or lost or waived their rights to demand payment with respect to their shares in accordance with the DGCL.

1.9 Indemnity Escrow Amount, Additional Escrow Amount, and Former Securityholders’ Escrow Amount.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Parent shall withhold from the Merger Consideration otherwise payable at Closing (i) an amount equal to $15,000,000 (the “Indemnity Escrow Amount”), (ii) an amount equal to $2,000,000 (the “Additional Escrow Amount” and together with the Indemnity Escrow Amount, the “Aggregate Escrow Amount”) and (iii) an amount equal to $750,000 (the “Former Securityholders’ Escrow Amount”).

(b) On the Closing Date, Parent shall cause (i) the Aggregate Escrow Amount to be delivered to U.S. Bank National Association, as escrow agent (the “Escrow Agent”), pursuant to an escrow agreement by and among Parent, Securityholders’ Representative and Escrow Agent (the “Escrow Agreement”) substantially in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit C and (ii) the Former Securityholders’ Escrow Amount to be delivered to the Securityholders’ Representative to be held in escrow for the benefit of the Former Securityholders. The Aggregate Escrow Amount shall be paid to the Escrow Agent on the Closing Date by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account designated in writing by the Escrow Agent (the “Escrow Account”). The Former Securityholders’ Escrow Amount shall be paid to the Securityholders’ Representative on the Closing Date by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account designated in writing by the Securityholders’ Representative (the “Former Securityholders’ Escrow Account”).

(c) The Indemnity Escrow Amount will be held by the Escrow Agent as security for the obligations of the Former Securityholders to Parent pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including those set forth in Section 7.2 hereof. The Additional Escrow Amount will be held by the Escrow Agent as partial security for the obligations of the Former Securityholders to Parent pursuant to the terms of Section 1.10 below. The Former Securityholders’ Escrow Amount will be held by the Securityholders’ Representative in a segregated account, will be for the benefit of the Former Securityholders and explicitly not for the benefit of Parent or the Company, and will be disbursed by the Securityholders’ Representative pursuant to the terms of Section 8.14. The Indemnity Escrow Amount shall be disbursed by the Escrow Agent on the General Survival Date (except to the extent any claims of the Parent Claimants are then outstanding) and otherwise pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement. The Aggregate Escrow Amount shall be disbursed by the Escrow Agent pursuant to the terms of the Escrow

Agreement. Subject to Section 1.9(d), any amount to be disbursed to the Former Securityholders pursuant to the Escrow Agreement or Section 8.14, as the case may be, shall be remitted to the Securityholders’ Representative, to be allocated among the Former Securityholders in the manner set forth in Section 1.6(c) or Section 1.6(d), as applicable.

(d) If at the expiration of the term of the Escrow Agreement there are amounts available for disbursement to the Former Securityholders in accordance with the terms of such agreement, the Securityholders’ Representative may direct the disbursement instead to be deposited in the Former Securityholders’ Escrow Account. Any such amounts so deposited shall then become subject to the terms of Section 8.14.

1.10 Merger Consideration Adjustments. The Merger Consideration shall be subject to adjustment as set forth below and all references in this Agreement to the Merger Consideration shall be deemed to be the Merger Consideration as adjusted pursuant to this Section 1.10.

(a) Sample Balance Sheet. Annex B sets forth, for illustrative purposes, a sample balance sheet (the “Sample Balance Sheet”) of the Company and CEA as of June 30, 2010, setting forth the Net Working Capital as of such date in comparison to the Target Net Working Capital, and otherwise calculating the estimated adjustments to the Merger Consideration pursuant to this Section 1.10 as if such Sample Balance Sheet was the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet, calculated in accordance with GAAP applied on a basis consistent with the 2009 Audited Financial Statements.

(b) Adjustment to Merger Consideration to be Paid at Closing. At least three Business Days prior to the Closing Date, CEA shall prepare and deliver to Parent an estimated consolidated balance sheet of CEA and the Company (the “Estimated Closing Date Balance Sheet”), as of 12:01 a.m. (central time) on the Closing Date (the “Adjustment Effective Time”), which shall include (1) the estimated Net Working Capital, as of the Adjustment Effective Time (“Estimated Net Working Capital”), (2) the estimated Capital Lease Amount as of the Adjustment Effective Time (the “Estimated Capital Lease Amount”), (3) the estimated Stay Bonus Amount as of the Adjustment Effective Time (the “Estimated Stay Bonus Amount”), (4) the Tax Adjustment Amount as of the Adjustment Effective Time, and (5) the Change in Tax Accounting Method Amount (the “Change in Tax Accounting Method Amount”, together with the Estimated Net Working Capital, the Estimated Capital Lease Amount, the Estimated Stay Bonus Amount and the Tax Adjustment Amount are hereafter referred to as the “Section 1.10(b) Adjustment Amounts”). The Estimated Closing Date Balance Sheet and the Section 1.10(b) Adjustment Amounts (including all components thereof) shall be prepared by CEA in good faith and in accordance with GAAP applied on a basis consistent with the 2009 Audited Financial Statements. CEA shall promptly provide Parent access to all relevant documents and information reasonably requested by Parent in connection with its review of the Estimated Closing Date Balance Sheet and the Section 1.10(b) Adjustment Amounts (including all components thereof). Prior to the Closing Date, Parent shall notify CEA of any objections to the Estimated Closing Date Balance Sheet or the Section 1.10(b) Adjustment Amounts (including any component thereof). If Parent has any such objections, CEA and Parent shall attempt in good faith to resolve any such objections, and the obligation of Parent, Merger Sub and CEA Merger Sub to close these transactions will be subject to Parent’s agreement to CEA’s determination and calculation of the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet and the Section 1.10(b) Adjustment Amounts

(including all components thereof); provided, however, that Parent, Merger Sub and CEA Merger Sub shall be obligated to close these transactions notwithstanding any unresolved objection if the amounts subject to any objection are less than $1,000,000 in the aggregate. The Merger Consideration to be paid at Closing by Parent shall, if (i) (a) the Estimated Net Working Capital, less (b) the Estimated Capital Lease Amount, less (c) the Estimated Stay Bonus Amount, less (d) the Tax Adjustment Amount, less (e) the Change in Tax Accounting Method Amount (such amount calculated in accordance with clause (i), the “Estimated Balance Sheet Amount”), exceeds (ii) the Target Net Working Capital, be increased on a dollar-for-dollar basis by the amount of such excess, or, (ii) if (x) the Estimated Balance Sheet Amount, is less than (y) the Target Net Working Capital, be decreased on a dollar-for-dollar basis by the amount of such deficiency.

(c) Adjustment to Merger Consideration Following the Closing. If the amount of the Net Working Capital (including, for purposes of this calculation and all adjustments pursuant to this Section 1.10(c) and Section 1.10(d), all Cash and Cash Equivalents) as of the Adjustment Effective Time (the “Closing Net Working Capital”), as finally determined pursuant to Section 1.10(d), is less than the amount of the Estimated Net Working Capital, then the Merger Consideration shall be reduced dollar-for-dollar by the difference. If the amount of the Closing Net Working Capital as finally determined pursuant to Section 1.10(d) below is greater than the Estimated Net Working Capital, then the Merger Consideration shall be increased dollar-for-dollar by the difference. If (x) the Capital Lease Amount as of the Adjustment Effective Time (the “Closing Capital Lease Amount”), plus (y) the Stay Bonus Amount as of the Adjustment Effective Time (the “Closing Stay Bonus Amount”), in each case as finally determined following the Closing pursuant to Section 1.10(d) below, is greater than (A) the Estimated Capital Lease Amount, plus (B) the Estimated Stay Bonus Amount, the Merger Consideration shall be decreased dollar-for-dollar by the amount of such excess. If (x) the Closing Capital Lease Amount, plus (y) the Closing Stay Bonus Amount, in each case as finally determined following the Closing pursuant to Section 1.10(d) below, is less than (A) the Estimated Capital Lease Amount, plus (B) the Estimated Stay Bonus Amount, the Merger Consideration shall be increased dollar-for-dollar by the amount of such deficiency. Any payments or adjustments by or to the Parent Claimants following the Closing in respect of the Tax Payables or Tax Receivables shall be determined in accordance with Section 4.11 below.

(d) Post-Closing Procedures. The determination of the adjustments, if any, required to be made to the Merger Consideration pursuant to clause (c) of this Section 1.10 shall be made pursuant to the following provisions:

(i) Within 60 days after the Closing Date, Parent shall prepare or cause to be prepared the consolidated balance sheet of the Company and CEA effective as of the Adjustment Effective Time (the “Closing Balance Sheet”) as well as a calculation of the Closing Net Working Capital, the Closing Capital Lease Amount and the Closing Stay Bonus Amount (the Closing Balance Sheet Amount, the Closing Capital Lease Amount and the Closing Stay Bonus Amount are hereafter referred to as the “Section 1.10(c) Adjustment Amounts”), and deliver to Securityholders’ Representative the Closing Balance Sheet, as well as calculations of the Section 1.10(c) Adjustment Amounts, if any, required to be made to the Merger Consideration pursuant to clause (d) of this Section 1.10 (the “Schedule of Adjustments”). Parent shall supply Securityholders’ Representative supporting documentation containing

reasonable detail as to the components or calculations of the Section 1.10(c) Adjustment Amounts (including all components thereof) promptly upon Securityholders’ Representative’s written request.

(ii) Securityholders’ Representative will have a period of thirty (30) days following the delivery of the Closing Balance Sheet as well as a calculation of the Section 1.10(c) Adjustment Amounts (including all components thereof) and the Schedule of Adjustments to notify Parent of any disagreements with any of the foregoing. Any such notice shall be accompanied by supporting documentation containing reasonable detail. Failure to notify Parent within such 30-day period shall be deemed acceptance of the Closing Balance Sheet as well as the calculation of the Section 1.10(c) Adjustment Amounts (including all components thereof) and the Schedule of Adjustments. If Securityholders’ Representative timely notifies Parent of any disagreement, the parties agree that each of them will attempt in good faith to resolve such disagreement. If within thirty (30) days after delivery to Parent of the notification by Securityholders’ Representative of a disagreement, the parties are unable to resolve such disagreement, either Parent, on the one hand, or Securityholders’ Representative, on the other hand, shall have the right to submit the determination of such matters to an independent accountant of national standing reasonably acceptable to Securityholders’ Representative and Parent (the “Independent Auditor”), whose decision shall be binding on the parties. The cost of the Independent Auditor shall be paid by the party or parties whose aggregate estimate of the disputed amount or amounts, as the case may be, differs most greatly from the determination of the Independent Auditor.

(iii) If it is finally determined pursuant to this clause (d) that any amount is payable by Parent in accordance with clause (c) of this Section 1.10, Parent shall, remit such difference to the Paying Agent or to CEA’s payroll agent in cash, to be allocated among the Former Securityholders in the manner set forth in Section 1.6(b) or Section 1.6(c), as applicable; notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent shall not be required to remit any portion of such amount attributable to Dissenting Shares.

(iv) If it is determined pursuant to this clause (d) that any amount is payable to Parent in accordance with clause (c) of this Section 1.10, the Securityholders’ Representative shall direct the Escrow Agent to remit such difference to Parent in cash from the Additional Escrow Amount in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement. In the event that the Additional Escrow Amount is insufficient to make the required payment, then the Securityholders’ Representative shall cause the Former Securityholders to remit, on a several basis, such shortfall to Parent.

(v) Any cash payment to be made as a result of adjustments made in accordance with clauses (c) and (d) of this Section 1.10 shall be paid within five (5) Business Days of the final determination of such adjustments by wire transfer of immediately available funds. Parent and the Securityholders’ Representative shall provide joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent regarding the release of the Additional Escrow Amount within five (5) Business Days of the final determination of the adjustment to the Merger Consideration as determined pursuant to clauses (c) and (d) of this Section 1.10. Any such payment shall be made to such account or accounts as may be designated by the party or parties entitled to such payment at least two (2) Business Days prior to the date that such payment is to be made.

In furtherance thereof, the Company and CEA shall promptly, but in no event later than five (5) Business Days following the date of the Written Consents executed in accordance with Section 4.8(a) thereof, deliver to all stockholders of the Company and CEA other than the stockholders of the Company and CEA that executed the Written Consents in accordance with Section 4.8(a) thereof, (i) a form of the Company Written Consent and CEA Written Consent, together with notice and a description of the adoption of this Agreement and approval of the Merger and CEA Merger, (ii) a notice of such stockholders’ appraisal rights under the DGCL, which notice will be in accordance with Section 262(b) of the DGCL, (iii) a copy of this Agreement and (iv) a summary of the material terms of the Agreement.

4.9 Benefit Arrangements.

(a) Parent agrees that all employees of the Company and CEA who continue employment with the CEA Surviving Corporation or the Surviving Corporation or Parent or any Affiliate thereof after the Effective Time (“Continuing Employees”) shall be eligible to continue to participate in the Company’s and CEA’s health, vacation, welfare and retirement benefit plans through at least December 2010, and that Parent shall ensure that the CEA Surviving Corporation, the Surviving Corporation, Parent or an Affiliate thereof maintains the previously adopted 2010 Incentive Compensation Plan, the 2010 Hospital Sales Incentive Plan — Account

Management Positions, the 2010 Sales Incentive Plan — RVP, Business Development, and the Sales Incentive Plan — VP, New Markets including the thresholds, targets and other provisions through at least December 2010, and that all payments due thereunder shall be made in accordance therewith; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 4.9 or elsewhere in this Agreement shall limit the right of Parent or any Affiliate thereof, including the CEA Surviving Corporation or the Surviving Corporation, to amend or terminate any such benefit plan or arrangement at any time after December 2010, and if Parent or any Affiliate thereof, including the CEA Surviving Corporation or the Surviving Corporation, terminates any such plan, then (upon expiration of any appropriate transition period), the Continuing Employees shall be eligible to participate in Parent’s benefit plans and vacation policies, in each case to the same extent as employees of Parent in similar positions and compensation grade levels. Continuing Employees shall receive credit for service time as an employee of the Company and CEA for purposes of eligibility to participate, vesting, and eligibility to receive benefits under any such Parent benefit plan and for purposes of vacation accrual for service accrued or deemed accrued prior to the Effective Time to the extent past service was recognized for such Continuing Employees under the comparable Company Plans immediately prior to the Effective Time, and to the same extent past service is credited under such plans or arrangements for similarly situated employees of Parent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 4.9(a) shall be construed to require crediting of service that would result in (A) duplication of benefits, (B) service credit for benefit accruals under a defined benefit pension plan, or (C) service credit under a newly established plan for which prior service is not taken into account for employees of Parent and its Affiliates generally. Additionally, any life, health and disability benefits available to Continuing Employees and their eligible dependents under Parent’s benefit plans shall not be subject to any insurability requirement or pre-existing condition exclusion that would not apply to the corresponding benefit provided under a Company Plan immediately prior to the Effective Time. Parent shall further provide each Continuing Employee, to the extent commercially practicable, with credit for any co-payments and deductibles paid prior to the Effective Time for the plan year in which the Effective Time occurs in satisfying any applicable deductibles or out-of-pocket requirements under corresponding Parent benefit plans.

(b) Immediately prior to the Closing Date, the Company and CEA shall cease contributions to, and terminate the Chamberlin Edmonds & Associates Inc. 401(k) Plan (the “401(k) Plan”). In connection therewith, the Company and CEA shall (i) cause their respective board of directors to adopt written resolutions, to be delivered pursuant to Section 5.3(f), to terminate the 401(k) Plan and one hundred percent (100%) vest all participants under the 401(k) Plan, such termination and vesting to be effective immediately prior to the Closing Date; and (ii) deliver, prior to Closing, notice of the 401(k) Plan termination to any trustees and custodians of the 401(k) Plan and/or its assets. Parent reserves the right to suspend the distribution of benefits from the 401(k) Plan until the later of the receipt of a favorable determination letter from the IRS with respect to the termination of the 401(k) Plan or the completion of final testing and record keeping for the 401(k) Plan.

(c) The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that all provisions contained in this Section 4.9 are included for the sole benefit of the parties hereto, and that nothing in this Agreement, whether express or implied, shall create any third party beneficiary or other rights (i) in any other Person, including, without limitation, any Continuing Employees, any participant in

any Parent benefit plan, or any dependent or beneficiary thereof, or (ii) to continued employment with Parent or any of its Affiliates.

4.10 Fees and Expenses. Whether or not the Merger or the CEA Merger is consummated, all fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Merger or the CEA Merger including, without limitation, all legal, accounting, financial advisory, finders, consulting and all other fees and expenses of third parties incurred by a party in connection with the negotiation and effectuation of the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by (i) in the case of any such fees or expenses of the Company, CEA or the stockholders of the Company or CEA, the stockholders of the Company and CEA in accordance with Section 1.6(a)(ii) hereof (and, subject to the foregoing, to the extent any such fees or expenses are liabilities of the Surviving Corporation or the CEA Surviving Corporation, shall be taken into account in determining the Estimated Net Working Capital and Closing Net Working Capital, as applicable, pursuant to the terms hereof), and (ii) in the case of any such fees or expenses of Parent, Merger Sub or CEA Merger Sub, Parent, Merger Sub or CEA Merger Sub.

4.11 Tax Matters. The following provisions shall govern the obligations and allocation of responsibility as between the parties for certain Tax matters:

(a) Tax Returns. Each of the parties to this Agreement agrees to cooperate with each other party in the preparation of any Tax Returns to the extent of any reasonable request. The Company and CEA shall prepare or cause to be prepared and file or cause to be filed their Tax Returns that are required to be filed prior to the Closing Date, and each such Tax Return shall be reflective of and consistent with past practices of the Company and CEA except as otherwise required by applicable Law. Parent shall prepare or cause to be prepared and file or cause to be filed all Tax Returns for the Company and CEA other than those Tax Returns that are required to be filed prior to the Closing Date. For any income Tax Return of the Company or CEA required to be filed after the Closing Date that includes a taxable period that begins before the Closing Date and ends on the Closing Date, or in the case of any income Tax Return required to be filed that involves a Straddle Period as defined in 4.11(c) and involves a potential Tax liability of more than $10,000 (each a “CEA 2010 Income Tax Return”) (i) Parent shall deliver to Securityholders’ Representative for review and comment a copy of the proposed Tax Return no later than 30 days prior to the filing date of such Tax Return (including extensions thereof), (ii) Parent shall prepare the proposed Tax Return in a manner not materially inconsistent with the past practice of the Company in preparing any similar Tax Return except as otherwise required by applicable Law, and Parent shall not take any position or adopt any method in respect of any such Tax Return that is materially inconsistent with the positions taken, elections made or methods used in preparing or filing such similar Tax Return in prior periods except as otherwise required by Law; and in each case, such Tax Return shall be in conformity with the Code, Treasury Regulations and any other applicable Law, and (iii) Parent shall accept the reasonable written comments of the Securityholders’ Representative in respect of any such Tax Return, provided that if the Securityholders Representative does not provide written comments to any such Tax Return within 15 days of the delivery of such Tax Return to the Securityholders’ Representative it shall be deemed to have no comments on such Tax Return.

(b) Taxes Payable. Notwithstanding and in lieu of the procedures set forth in Section 7.4, upon Parent’s request, the Securityholders’ Representative shall authorize transfer to

Parent from the Escrow Account in immediately available funds within 15 days following the filing of the applicable Tax Return, an amount equal to (i) the Taxes shown as owing on all CEA 2010 Income Tax Returns, if any, less the Tax Adjustment Amount (ii) the Taxes shown as owing on all other Tax Returns filed by Parent that include a period that ends on the Closing Date (other than the CEA 2010 Income Tax Returns) except to the extent such Taxes were included as a liability in the computation of Net Working Capital (as finally determined pursuant to Section 1.10), and (iii) the Former Securityholders’ share of Taxes owing on all Tax Returns filed or caused to be filed by Parent that includes a Straddle Period except to the extent such Taxes were included as a liability in the computation of Net Working Capital (as finally determined pursuant to Section 1.10), which share shall be that portion of the Taxes for the Straddle Period that are properly allocable to the period that the Former Securityholders owned the Company Shares and the CEA Shares as described in Section 4.11(c). If the Taxes shown as owing on any Tax Return filed pursuant to (i) or (ii) above are less than the amount of Taxes paid by the Company or CEA prior to the Closing Date in respect of such Taxes (including the Tax Adjustment Amount) (in each case, an “Overpayment”) Parent shall pay over to the Securityholders’ Representative on behalf of the Former Securityholders any such Overpayment within 15 days following the filing of such Tax Return.

(c) Straddle Periods. For purposes of this Agreement, whenever it is necessary to determine the liability for Taxes of the Company or CEA, as the case may be, for any taxable period of the Company or CEA that includes (but does not end on or before) the Closing Date (a “Straddle Period”), the determination of the Taxes of the Company or CEA for the portion of the Straddle Period ending on and including, and the portion of the Straddle Period beginning after, the Closing Date shall be determined by assuming that the Straddle Period consisted of two taxable years or periods, one which ended at the close of the Closing Date and the other which began at the beginning of the day following the Closing Date, and items of income, gain, deduction, loss or credit, and state and local apportionment factors of the Company and CEA for the Straddle Period, shall be allocated between such two taxable years or periods on a “closing of the books basis” by assuming that the books of the Company and CEA were closed at the close of the Closing Date. However, (i) exemptions, allowances or deductions that are calculated on an annual basis, such as the deduction for depreciation, and (ii) periodic Taxes such as real and personal property Taxes shall be apportioned ratably between such periods on a daily basis.

(d) Tax Benefit for Stay Bonus Amount. In the event that Parent, the Company, or CEA receives a deduction in computing federal income Taxes for any income Tax period beginning after the Closing Date, in connection with the payment of any Stay Bonus Amount or with respect to a holder of CEA Options (whether paid out of the Escrow Account or otherwise), then Parent, the Company, or CEA shall pay to the Securityholders’ Representative on behalf of the Former Securityholders the tax benefit of such deduction, which shall be presumed to equal 38% of the amount of such deduction (“Tax Benefit”). In the event that Parent, the Company, or CEA become liable for any payroll Taxes with respect to the payment of any such Stay Bonus Amount or with respect to a holder of CEA Options (whether paid out of the Escrow Account or otherwise), but not including payroll Taxes that are recovered through withholding from any such payment, then the amount of the Tax Benefit may be reduced by the amount of such payroll Taxes. Any such payment due hereunder, as adjusted herein, shall be

payable within 15 days following the due date, including extensions, of the Parent’s, the Company’s, or CEA’s applicable federal income Tax Return on which such deduction is claimed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amount shall be payable hereunder unless the Company’s consolidated federal taxable income for the tax period ending on the Closing Date as reduced by the Stay Bonus Amount is greater than zero; provided, however, that in the event that such taxable income is greater than zero before reduction of the Stay Bonus Amount and any payment with respect to CEA Options that is not properly deductible for the taxable period ending on the Closing Date, but less than zero after such reductions, then, for purposes of computing the Tax Benefit as set forth in the previous sentence, the total of the amount of the Stay Bonus Amount and the payments with respect to CEA Options that shall be taken into account in computing the Tax Benefit shall be equal to that amount which reduces taxable income to an amount equal to zero. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties acknowledge that the Stay Bonus Amount will not be deducted on the Company’s consolidated federal income Tax Return that is filed with the Internal Revenue Service for the tax period ending on the Closing Date, but rather, such amount will be treated as deductible on such Tax Return solely for the purpose of determining whether the Tax Benefit is payable hereunder.

(e) Tax Treatment. All payments under this Section 4.11 shall be treated by the parties for income Tax purposes as an adjustment to the purchase price paid for the Company Shares and the CEA Shares.

(f) Resolution of Tax Related Issues. Securityholders’ Representative and Parent agree to consult and attempt to resolve in good faith any disagreement or issue arising (i) as a result of the review of proposed Tax Returns under Section 4.11(a) and (ii) with respect to the calculation and allocation of Taxes under Section 4.11(c). If Securityholders’ Representative and Parent cannot agree upon the resolution of any such issues that are material within 15 days, Parent and Securityholders’ Representative shall refer the matter to an Independent Auditor (which solely for purposes of this Section shall be an accounting firm of national reputation that is not regularly engaged by either party) for resolution, provided that, the Independent Auditor shall not concur with a position proposed by a party unless such position meets the more likely than not standard (as contemplated in FIN 48 under GAAP). Parent and Former Securityholders shall each bear 50% of the fees and expenses of the Independent Auditor and its determination shall be final and binding on both Parent and Former Securityholders, unless otherwise reversed by a Taxing Authority.

(g) Other Tax Matters. Notwithstanding and in lieu of the procedures set forth in Section 7.4, Parent shall promptly notify Securityholders’ Representative in writing upon receipt by Parent, the Company, or CEA of written notice of any pending or threatened Tax audit or Tax assessment which may affect the income tax liabilities of the Company or CEA and for which the Former Securityholders would be liable under this Agreement, provided that such notice is received by Parent, the Company or CEA prior to the General Survival Date. The Securityholders’ Representative (and its designated representatives) shall have the right to participate, at its sole cost and expense, in any Tax matter, including any audit or administrative or judicial proceeding, or the filing of any amended Tax Return, which involves or results in a material Tax liability or potential material Tax liability for which the Former Securityholders would be liable under this Agreement and that is commenced or filed prior to the General

Survival Date (“CEA Interested Tax Matter”). Parent shall cooperate fully with the Securityholders’ Representative (and its designated representatives) in the defense or compromise of any such CEA Interested Tax Matter. In no case shall Parent, the Company or CEA settle or otherwise compromise any such CEA Interested Tax Matter (including the filing of an amended Tax Return) without the prior approval of Securityholders’ Representative, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

4.12 Change of Control Payments. The Company and CEA shall pay, prior to the Closing, all change of control and similar payments (excluding the Stay Bonus Amounts) required to be made by the Company or CEA to any of its employees or any other Persons in connection with the closing of the transactions contemplated hereby.

4.13 Payment of Indebtedness and Related Party Amounts. At or prior to Closing, (i) the Company and CEA shall have paid or otherwise satisfied (or cause to be paid or otherwise satisfied) in full all Indebtedness payable by the Company or CEA to any Person (including, without limitation, all amounts payable by the Company or CEA pursuant to the GE Debt Financing, but excluding all amounts payable under capital leases of the Company and CEA), and (ii) the Company and CEA shall have paid or otherwise satisfied (or caused to be paid or otherwise satisfied) in full all amounts payable to the Company or CEA by any CEA Related Person or Company Related Person, and all amounts payable by the Company or CEA to any CEA Related Person or Company Related Person (including all amounts payable by the Company or CEA under the Management Agreement, which the Company and CEA shall cause to be terminated at or prior to the Closing and shall provide evidence of the same to Parent at or prior to Closing in form reasonably acceptable to Parent). Prior to Closing, the Company and CEA shall fully resolve (and obtain full releases in connection therewith) the claim by certain former shareholders of the Company and/or CEA pursuant to the 2008 Merger Agreement pertaining to such former shareholders’ rights to receive certain refunds of federal income taxes, which liability is reflected in the Sample Balance Sheet in the amount of $888,397 (the “2008 Merger Agreement Refund Claim”).

4.14 SEC Filings. In order to assist with any potential future SEC filing requirements or disclosures in future SEC filings of Emdeon Inc. in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby or the financial results of the acquired business of the Company and CEA, CEA (prior to the Closing) and the Securityholders’ Representative (following the Closing) shall provide such cooperation as Parent may reasonably request in connection with such filing requirements, including, without limitation, cooperating with Parent in its efforts to cause the independent accountants of the Company and CEA to re-issue their audit opinion on the Company’s and CEA’s 2009 audited consolidated financial statements and deliver consents to the inclusion or incorporation by reference of such opinion and financial statements in the SEC filings of Emdeon Inc. Parent shall reimburse the Securityholders’ Representative for all out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable attorneys’, accountants’ and other advisors’ fees and expenses) incurred by the Securityholders’ Representative in connection with performing its obligations under this Section 4.14.

4.15 Payment of Stay Bonus Amount. If any portion of the Stay Bonus Amount is not paid pursuant to the terms of the Retention Agreements, Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation or the CEA Surviving Corporation, as appropriate, to remit the unpaid balance of the

Stay Bonus Amount to the Securityholders’ Representative for the benefit of the Former Securityholders.

(c) by the Company, upon written notice to Parent, (x) upon a material breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement on the part of Parent, Merger Sub or CEA Merger Sub set forth in this Agreement, or if any representation or warranty of Parent, Merger Sub or CEA Merger Sub shall have become untrue, in either case such that any condition

The Company Indemnifying Parties shall not be required to indemnify a Parent Claimant under clause (a) of this Section 7.2 unless the aggregate cumulative sum of all amounts for which indemnity would otherwise be due under clause (a) of this Section 7.2 exceeds $3,000,000 in which case the Company Indemnifying Parties shall only be responsible for such excess. In addition, the maximum aggregate liability of the Company Indemnifying Parties for which indemnification under clause (a) of this Section 7.2 shall not exceed $15,000,000, which shall be inclusive of the Indemnity Escrow Amount.

Parent shall not be required to indemnify a Securityholder Claimant under clause (a) of this Section 7.3 unless the aggregate cumulative sum of all amounts for which indemnity would otherwise be due under clause (a) of this Section 7.3 exceeds $3,000,000, in which case Parent shall only be responsible for such excess. In addition, Parent’s aggregate maximum liability for indemnification under clause (a) of this Section 7.3 shall not exceed $15,000,000. The limitations set forth in the immediately two preceding sentences shall not apply to claims arising from any inaccuracy or breach of the representations or warranties contained in Sections 3.2 or claims based on fraud.

7.4 Terms and Conditions of Indemnification. The respective obligations and liabilities of the Company, Former Securityholders and Parent to indemnify pursuant to this Article VII shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:

(a) The party seeking indemnification (the “Claimant”) must give the other party or parties, as the case may be (the “Indemnitor”), prompt written notice of any such Claim. The Claimant’s failure to give prompt notice, however, shall not serve to eliminate or limit the Claimant’s right to indemnification hereunder except to the extent such failure prejudices the rights of the Indemnitor.

(b) The respective obligations and liabilities of the Company, the Former Securityholders and Parent to indemnify pursuant to this Article VII in respect of any Claim by a third party shall be subject to the following additional terms and conditions:

(i) The Indemnitor shall have the right to undertake, by counsel or other representatives of its own choosing reasonably satisfactory to Claimant, the defense, compromise, and settlement of such Claim (unless Claimant reasonably determines that a third-party claim may adversely affect it or its Affiliates in any material respect other than as a result of monetary damages for which it would be entitled to indemnification under this Agreement).

(ii) If the Indemnitor elects not to undertake such defense, or within twenty days after notice of any such Claim from the Claimant shall fail to defend, the Claimant shall have the right to undertake the defense, compromise or settlement of such Claim, by counsel or other representatives of its own choosing, on behalf of and for the account and risk of the Indemnitor.

(iii) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 7.4 to the contrary, (A) the Indemnitor shall not, without the Claimant’s written consent, settle or compromise any claim

or consent to entry of any judgment unless (x) such compromise or settlement includes as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claiming party or the plaintiff to the Claimant and its Affiliates of a release from all liability in respect of such claim and such compromise or settlement does not otherwise require Claimant or its Affiliates to pay any monetary damages, and (y) there is no finding or admission of any violation of any Legal Requirement or any violation of the rights of any Person by Claimant or its Affiliates, and (B) if the Indemnitor undertakes defense of any claim, the Claimant by counsel or other representative of its own choosing and at its sole cost and expense, shall have the right to consult with the Indemnitor and its counsel or other representatives concerning such claim and the Indemnitor and the Claimant and their respective counsel or other representatives shall cooperate and keep Claimant informed with respect to such claim, subject to the execution and delivery of a mutually satisfactory joint defense agreement.

(c) With respect to an indemnity notice that is delivered by a Parent Claimant, upon final resolution or acceptance of the amount of damages subject to such indemnity notice (an “Undisputed Amount”), the Escrow Agent upon receipt of joint instructions from Parent and the Securityholders’ Representative will disburse the amount of such Undisputed Amount to Parent (subject, however, to a maximum payment equal to the remaining balance of the Indemnity Escrow Amount), upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Escrow Agreement. If the amount of such Undisputed Amount exceeds the remaining balance in the Indemnity Escrow Amount or the Indemnity Escrow Amount has been released in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement, then, Parent shall have the right to exercise its other rights and remedies hereunder subject to the limitations contained in this Agreement; provided, further that each Former Securityholders’ percentage of such Undisputed Amount shall not exceed the percentage of Merger Consideration to which such Former Securityholder is directly or indirectly entitled as computed pursuant to Schedule 1.6.

(d) With respect to an indemnity notice that is delivered by the Securityholders’ Representative, upon final resolution or acceptance of the amount of Damages subject to such indemnity notice, Parent shall promptly pay the amount of such Damages to the Securityholders’ Representative (and the Securityholders’ Representative shall promptly distribute such amount to the Former Securityholders in the same proportion as the distributions to the Former Securityholders of the Merger Consideration).

(e) Parent and the Securityholders’ Representative shall provide joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent regarding the release of the Indemnity Escrow Amount within five (5) Business Days of the final resolution or acceptance of an Undisputed Amount.

7.5 Indemnification Payments Constitute Adjustments of Merger Consideration. Any indemnification payment hereunder shall constitute an adjustment of the Merger Consideration for Tax purposes, and no party hereto shall take a position inconsistent therewith.

7.6 No Double Recovery. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no Party shall be entitled to indemnification under any provision of this Agreement for any amount to the extent such Party or its Affiliates or Representatives have been indemnified or reimbursed by, or received an offset benefit actually exercised in respect of, any Former Securityholder, insurance company or other third party (net of any applicable deductibles or

similar costs or payments and costs of recovery or collection thereof). In addition, if at any time following the payment of an indemnification obligation, the Claimant receives insurance proceeds or other third party recoveries (including offset rights actually exercised or Tax benefits actually realized) in respect of the related Damages, the value of any such amount will promptly be repaid by Claimant to the Indemnitor (net of any applicable deductibles or similar costs or payments and costs of recovery or collection thereof).

7.7 Exclusivity. After the Closing, the indemnities set forth in this Article VII will be the exclusive remedies of the Parent Claimants and Seller Claimants for any misrepresentation, breach of warranty or nonfulfillment or failure to be performed of any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement, and the Parties will not be entitled to a rescission of this Agreement or to any further indemnification rights or claims of any nature whatsoever in respect thereof, all of which the Parties hereto hereby waive, provided, however, that the limitations herein will not limit or restrict (i) any right to recovery for fraud, or (ii) any Person who is a party to the Employment Agreements, the Restrictive Covenant Agreements, the Letters of Transmittal or the Release and Agreements to obtain Damages or any other legal or equitable relief from any other Person who is a party to any such agreement in connection with the breach of such agreement by such other Person pursuant to the terms thereof.

7.8 No Double Materiality. For purposes of calculating the amount of Damages to which the Parent Claimants and Securityholder Claimants are entitled under this Article VII (but not for purposes of determining whether a representation or warranty has been breached), the terms “material,” “materiality,” and “material adverse effect” will be disregarded.
