period ending December 31 for the years 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014
("Future Contingency Payment Date"). A Future Contingency Payment

the prepayment to be delivered pursuant to the Buy Down Right shall be

minus (B) the aggregate amount of Future Contingency Payments paid by

Future Contingency Payment due Selling Member after 2012; eighty-three
and 83/100 (83.33%) percent of the amount of the remaining Future
Contingency Payment due Seller Member after 2013; and one hundred
(100%) percent of the remaining Future Contingency Payments due Selling

Future Contingency Payments and the Buy Out Payment shall be made by
wire transfer of immediately available funds, delivered on the date set

days after the Notice of Exercise is sent to Selling Member.
(ii) The Company shall deliver to Buyer copies of

2013 and December 31, 2014, within thirty (30) days following the end
of each period. Such financial statements shall be prepared in
compliance with GAAP standards applied on a basis consistent with prior

statements for such period, Company shall deliver or cause to be
delivered to Buyer a certificate of its chief financial officer
("Future Contingent Payment Certificate") setting forth and certifying

payment, if any, for such period.

the each twelve (12) month period, Buyer shall, in writing to the
Selling Member, either accept or dispute the amount of the basis of the
calculation of Future Contingency Payment as set forth in the Future
Contingency Payment Certificate. In the event Buyer disputes such
amount, Buyer shall describe in reasonable detail the nature of the
dispute. If the Parties are unable to resolve the dispute within ten
(10) days from the date of receipt of said notice, the Parties shall
submit the dispute to an independent public accountant firm with

The decision of the independent accounting firm with respect to the
calculation of the Future Contingency Payment Certificate shall be
binding on the Parties with all fees and expenses of such firm shall be
shared equally by Buyer and Selling Member, provided however, that if
the Company's calculation of EBITDA varies by more than 10% from the
EBITDA determined by the accounting firm designated to resolve the
disagreement, the fees and expenses of such firm shall be paid by the
Selling Member.
9
(iv) Buyer shall pay to Selling Member the Future
Contingency Payment no later than one hundred twenty (120) days
following the end of the each twelve (12) month period, assuming
acceptance of the Future Contingency Payment Certificate by Buyer. All
such payments shall be made to Selling Member by wire transfer of
immediately available funds to an account designated by Selling Member.
2.04 Purchase Price Adjustment. On the Closing Date, Selling
Member shall deliver to Buyer a statement setting forth an estimate of
Sycamore's Working Capital as of the Closing Date ("Estimated Working
Capital Statement"). Within thirty (30) days from the Closing Date,
Selling Member shall deliver to Buyer a statement ("Final Working
Capital Statement") setting forth Sycamore's actual Working Capital as
of the Closing Date, certified by the chief operating officer and the
chief financial officer of Sycamore.
The Final Working Capital Statement shall be subject to review and
approval by Buyer and Selling Member shall have provided Buyer or its
designees with reasonable access to Sycamore's officers and auditors,
as well as the work papers, books and records and all other materials
used in the preparation of the Final Working Capital Statement. If the
Working Capital of Sycamore, as set forth in the Final Working Capital
Statement approved by Buyer is less than Five Million ($5,000,000.00)
Dollars as of the Closing Date, the amount of such shortfall shall
constitute a reduction of the Purchase Price set forth herein and the
original principal amount of the Buyer Note shall be deemed to be
reduced by the same amount. In the event that the Working Capital of
Company as set forth in the Final Working Capital Statement approved by
Buyer is equal to or exceeds Five Million ($5,000,000.00) Dollars,
there shall be no adjustment to the Purchase Price. In no event will
any adjustment pursuant to the terms of this Section 2.04 affect the
rights and obligations of the Parties with respect to amounts that may
be due under Section 2.02(b) of this Purchase Agreement.
2.05 Collectibility of Accounts. In the event any of the
accounts receivable, retainage receivable, or other assets that relate
to construction projects that were completed and billed in full prior
to January 31, 2011 and were included in the calculation of the Final
Working Capital Statement, remain unpaid as of July 31 2012, the
Company and Selling Member, jointly and severally, agree that a post
closing adjustment to the Purchase Price will be due Buyer in an amount
equal to the excess of the (A) sum of the aggregate face amount of
accounts receivable not collected or collectible and the aggregate
retainage and other assets not collected or collectible over (B) any
and all accounts payable and accrued liabilities that may exist as an
offset to the aforementioned accounts receivable, retainage receivable
and other assets, and (C) the amount of all accounts receivable,
retainage receivable and other assets which are were written off by the
company before the Closing Date but which are collected by Buyer after
the Closing. The post closing adjustment will also apply in favor of

2011 and were included in the Final Working Capital Statement, and
remain unpaid as of January 31, 2014. Company shall be exclusively
responsible for the collection of receivables.
10
Any such payment shall be made by certified or bank check payable to
the order of Buyer within thirty (30) days after Buyer provides a
statement to Company identifying the accounts receivable, retainage and
other assets not collected or collectable. Buyer shall, on or before
July 31, 2012 and January 31, 2014 respectively, provide Company with
an accounting identifying specific accounts which remain uncollected
and providing a calculation of the amount due to Buyer pursuant to this
Section 2.05; provided, however, that Buyer's failure to timely provide
such accounting shall not in any way be deemed as a waiver of its right
to receive payment under this Section 2.05.
Upon receipt of payment from Company and the Selling Member for any
such account receivable, retainage or other asset which is not
collected, Buyer shall promptly assign its right in and to such account
receivable, retainage or other asset to Company. The Parties
acknowledge that the provisions of this Section 2.05 shall not apply

indemnify, defend, save and hold Buyer (and their respective members,
managers, directors, officers, employees and agents) harmless from and
against any and all damage, liability, loss, expense, assessment,
judgment or deficiency of any nature whatsoever (including, without
limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and other costs and expenses
incident to any suit, action or proceeding) (together "Losses")
incurred or sustained by such indemnified parties which arise out of or

or Selling Member set forth in Article IV and (ii) the breach of or
failure to perform any covenant of Company and Selling Member set forth
in this Purchase Agreement (including, but not limited to, any post
closing covenant). Notwithstanding the forgoing, (a) in no event will
the Buyer be entitled to indemnification hereunder unless or until the
aggregate Losses suffered by Buyer exceed to Fifty Thousand
($50,000.00) Dollars, whereupon all Losses suffered by Buyer shall be
subject to indemnification hereunder; and (b) in no event will the
Company or Selling Member be obligated to pay Losses in an aggregate
amount which exceeds twenty-five (25%) percent of the Purchase Price
actually paid in cash to Selling Member hereunder. In the event that
Buyer is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Section 6.02 and
the same is not promptly paid, Buyer shall have the right to deduct the
amount it should have received pursuant to this Section 6.02 from any
Future Contingency Payment it is obligated to pay Company pursuant to

6.04 Procedures for Indemnification of Third Party Claims.
Promptly after service of notice of any claim or of process by any
third person in any matter in respect of which indemnity may be sought
29
from a party pursuant to this Purchase Agreement, the party so served
will notify the indemnifying party of the receipt thereof. The
indemnifying party will have the right to participate in, or assume, at
its own expense, the defense of any such claim or process (with counsel
reasonably acceptable to the indemnified party) or settlement thereof.
After notice from the indemnifying party of its election so to assume
the defense thereof, the indemnifying party will not be liable to the
indemnified party for any legal or other expense incurred by the
indemnified party in connection with such defense. Such defense will be
conducted expeditiously (but with due regard for obtaining the most
favorable outcome reasonably likely under the circumstances, taking
into account costs and expenditures) and the indemnified party will be
advised promptly of all material developments. The indemnifying party
will not settle any such claim without the prior written consent of the
indemnified party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed. With respect to any matter which is the subject of any such
claim and as to which the indemnified party fails to give the other
party such notice as aforesaid, and such failure adversely affects the
ability of the indemnifying party to defend such claim or materially
increases the amount of indemnification which the indemnifying party is
obligated to pay hereunder, the amount of indemnification which the
indemnified party will be entitled to receive will be reduced to an
amount which the indemnified party would have been entitled to receive
had such notice been timely given. No settlement of any such claim as
to which the indemnifying party has not elected to assume the defense
thereof will be made without the prior written consent of the
indemnifying party, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed.
6.05 Exclusive Remedy. In the absence of fraud or willful
misconduct, the provisions of Sections 6.02, 6.03 and 6.04 shall be the
exclusive remedy of the parties in the event of a breach of the
representations, warranties or covenants set forth in this Agreement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing set forth in this Section 6.06
shall limit the right of a Party to seek and obtain the equity remedies
of specific performance or temporary or permanent injunctive relief.
6.06 Further Assurances. Following the Closing, at the request
of Buyer, Sycamore and Selling Member shall execute and deliver to
Buyer such further documents and take such reasonable action as may be
necessary or appropriate to (i) confirm the sale, transfer, assignment,
conveyance and delivery of the Membership Interest; or (ii) vest in
Buyer all of Selling Member's right, title and interest in Sycamore. In
connection with the foregoing, after the Buyer Note has been paid in
full, Buyer shall have the right and authority to endorse, without
recourse, the name of Company and Sycamore on any check or similar

recoverable in the event of a breach or threatened breach by any party
of the provisions of this Section 6.07.

authorized representatives) to occupy or use all or any part of the
Leased Premise, without first obtaining the Landlord's written consent,
which consent may be given or withheld in the sole discretion of the
Landlord. Any assignment, encumbrance or sublease without the
Landlord's consent will be voidable and, at the Landlord's election,
will constitute a default under this Lease. No permitted assignment or
subleasing will in any way affect or reduce any of the obligations of
the Tenant under this Lease.
15. Quiet Enjoyment. Upon paying the rent and all other
payments required to be made by the Tenant hereunder, and upon the

Landlord, including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses, in curing
a default shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord as additional rent on
demand, together with interest thereon at the maximum rate permitted by
law from the date of payment by Landlord to date of payment by Tenants.
17. Waivers. The failure of the Landlord to insist in any one
or more instances upon the strict and literal performance of any of the
agreements, terms, or conditions of this Lease or to exercise any
option of the Landlord herein contained, will not be construed as a
waiver for the future of such term, condition, agreement or option.
The receipt by the Landlord of rent with knowledge of the breach of any
term, condition, or agreement will not be deemed to be a waiver of such
breach. The receipt by the Landlord of rent after the giving of any
notice required to be given to the Tenant by law or by the terms of
this Lease will not in any way affect the operation of such notice.
18. Notices. No notice, approval, consent or other
communication permitted or required to be given by this Lease will be
effective unless the same is sent postage prepaid, by United States
registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, to the other
45

Landlord of Landlord's interest in this Lease, or the rents payable
hereunder, conditional in nature or otherwise, which assignment is made
to the holder of the first mortgage on the Building, Tenant agrees that
the execution thereof by Landlord, and the acceptance thereof by the
holder of such mortgage, shall not be deemed an assumption by such
holder of any of the obligations of Landlord hereunder, unless such
holder shall, by written notice sent to Tenant, specifically otherwise
elect.
23. Counterparts. This Lease may be executed in one or more
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of
which together shall constitute one and the same document. The parties
hereto and any third parties may rely upon machine copies of signatures

sole owner of all of the membership interests ("Membership
Interest") of Sycamore Enterprises LLC ("Sycamore"), holder of all

Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have acted as counsel for Company, Sycamore and Selling Member
(collectively, "Seller") in connection with the execution and delivery
by Selling Member of that certain Member Interest Purchase Agreement
dated as of the 21st day of January, 2011 ("Purchase Agreement") by and
between Buyer and Selling Member, and the transactions contemplated
thereunder. All capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise
defined shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Purchase
Agreement, unless the context otherwise requires.
In rendering this opinion, we have examined all such certificates,
documents and instruments as we have deemed necessary to enable us to
render the opinions expressed below. In this respect, we have examined
originals or photographic, photostatic or certified copies of, among
other things, the following documents:
1. Purchase Agreement;
2. Pledge and Assignment of Membership Interests; and
3. Secured Term Note.
Items 1 through 3 above are collectively referred to herein as the
"Transactional Documents."

Re: Purchase Agreement

In rendering this opinion, we have relied, as to all questions of fact
material to this opinion, upon certificates or other documents issued
by government officials, offices or agencies concerning Seller's
property or status. In addition, we have relied upon the factual
representations and warranties made by Seller in the Transactional
Documents.
For purposes of the opinions expressed below, we have assumed, without
independent investigation or inquiry, (i) the authenticity of all
documents and instruments submitted to us as originals; (ii) the
conformity to the originals and completeness of all documents and
instruments submitted to us as certified or photostatic copies and the
authenticity of the originals; (iii) the due authorization, execution
and delivery of all documents and instruments by all parties other than
Purchaser and the validity and binding effect thereof on all parties
other than Seller; and (iv) the genuineness of all signatures not
witnessed by us and the legal capacity of all natural persons.
We have assumed that the all parties to the Transactional Documents
that are legal entities (other than Selling Member) are duly organized,
validly existing, and have obtained all necessary approvals and have
full authority to consummate the transactions contemplated by the
Transactional Documents, including but not limited to all necessary
governmental approvals, and that the Transactional Documents constitute
such parties' valid and binding obligations, enforceable in accordance
with their respective terms. We have also assumed the valid existence
of the Buyer and the due authorization, execution and delivery of the
Transactional Documents by Buyer.
We express this opinion as members of the Bar of the State of Rhode
Island ("State") and are therefore rendering this opinion only with
respect to the laws of the State and the federal laws of the United
States of America in effect on the date hereof. No opinion is expressed
herein with respect to compliance with any laws, regulations or rules
relating to tax, securities or anti-trust.
We have expressly assumed, with your permission and without any
investigation, that: (l) insofar as the laws of any jurisdiction other
than the State (collectively "Other Laws") may be applicable or
otherwise relevant to the Transactional Documents, that the Other Laws
do not prohibit Seller from entering into the Transactional Documents,
restrict or limit the enforceability of any provision of any
Transactional Documents, or otherwise render the execution, delivery or
performance of the Transactional Documents illegal or unenforceable,
and that the Other Laws are not inconsistent with any obligation of
Seller under, or right created by, the Transactional Documents; and (2)
that the courts sitting in any jurisdiction other than the State would
recognize

and enforce the choice of law provisions in the Transactional
Documents, which provide that the validity, construction and
enforceability of such documents will be governed by the laws of the
State.
For the purposes of this opinion, references to "our knowledge" or
"actually known to us" or words of similar import mean the actual
knowledge and conscious awareness of facts or other information (I) by
the lawyers in this firm who have given substantive legal attention to
the representation of Seller in connection with the transactions
contemplated by the Transactional Documents; and (2) solely as to
information relevant to a particular opinion, issue or confirmation
regarding a particular factual matter, by any lawyer in our firm who is
primarily responsible for providing the response concerning that
particular opinion, issue or confirmation. Except as specifically noted
above, we have not (1) made any independent review or investigation of
any factual matters; (2) undertaken any investigation of the records of
Seller or any court or other body or verification of the accuracy of
any representations of Seller, including without limitation those
contained in the Transactional Documents; or (3) reviewed any
agreements or other documents other than those specifically identified
herein as having been examined in connection with rendering this
opinion.
The opinions herein expressed are qualified to the extent that the
validity and enforceability of any provisions in the Transactional
Documents, or any rights granted to the Buyer pursuant to any of the
Transactional Documents, are subject to and may be affected by (I)
principles of public policy; (2) general equitable principles; and (3)
applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent
conveyance, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement
of creditors' rights generally.
We express no opinion as to the availability of any equitable or
specific remedy upon any breach of the Transactional Documents or to
the successful assertion of any equitable defenses, inasmuch as the
availability of such remedies or the success of any equitable defense
may be subject to the discretion of a court.
No opinions are expressed as to the enforceability of provisions in the
Transactional Documents that: (1) restrict access to courts or to legal
or equitable remedies; (2) prescribe evidentiary standards for suits or
proceedings to enforce the Transactional Documents; (3) waive
procedural, judicial or substantive rights, such as rights to notice,
right to a jury trial, statutes of limitations and marshaling of
assets; (3) provide that decisions by a party are conclusive; or (4)
grant or limit the rights of third parties.
We express no opinion as to any provision in the Transactional
Documents (1) which may be deemed to or construed to waive any future
right of Seller; (2) to the effect that rights and remedies are not
exclusive, that every right or remedy is cumulative and may be

exercised in addition to or with any other right or remedy and does not
preclude recourse to one or more other rights or remedies; (3) relating
to the effect of invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of the
Transactional Documents on the validity or enforceability of any other
provision thereof; (4) requiring the payment of penalties,
consequential damages or liquidated damages; (5) which is in violation
of public policy, including but not limited to any provision relating
to indemnification and contribution with respect to securities law
matters; (6) purporting to indenmify any person against such person's
own negligence or intentional misconduct; or (7) which provides that
the terms of the Transactional Documents may not be waived or modified
except in writing.
Our opinions expressed in paragraph I, below, insofar as they relate to
the valid existence and good standing of Seller, are rendered as of the
date of the Articles certified by the Secretary of State of the State
of Rhode Island, but we are not aware of any circumstance or event
since such date that would alter the valid existence or good standing
of Purchaser.
For purposes of our opinions rendered below, we have assumed that the
facts and law governing the future performance by Seller of its
obligations under the Transactional Documents will be identical to the
facts and law governing its performance on the date of this opinion.
Based upon the foregoing, and subject to the qualifications,
assumptions or other limitations set forth herein, we are of the
opinion that:
1. Company is a limited liability company duly organized and validly
existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware
with full power and authority to own its assets and carryon the
business in which it is now engaged and to execute, deliver and perform
the Transactional Documents.
2. Sycamore is a limited liability company duly organized and validly
existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Rhode
Island with full power and authority to own its assets and carry on the
business in which it is now engaged and to execute, deliver and perform
the Transactional Documents.
3. Company has the corporate power and authority to execute, deliver
and perform the Transactional Documents to which it is a party, and the
execution, delivery and performance of said Transactional Documents
have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate and shareholder
action.

4. Sycamore has the corporate power and authority to execute, deliver
and perform the Transactional Documents to which it is a party, and the
execution, delivery and performance of said Transactional Documents
have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate and shareholder
action.
5. None of the execution, delivery and performance of the Transactional
Documents by Seller nor the consummation of the transactions
contemplated thereby, nor the compliance by Seller with the provisions
thereof, will: (i) to our knowledge, conflict with, or result in any
violations of, or cause a default (with or without notice or lapse of
time, or both) under, or give rise to a right of termination,
amendment, cancellation or acceleration of any obligation contained in,
or the loss of any material benefit under, or result in the creation
of, any lien upon any of the properties or assets of Seller under any
term, condition or provision of the Organizational Documents; or (ii)
violate any laws of the state applicable to Seller or any of its
respective properties.
6. The Transactional Documents have been duly executed and delivered by
Purchaser and constitutes the valid and legally binding obligation of
Purchaser, enforceable against each of them in accordance with their
terms.
This opinion letter is rendered to you in connection with the
transactions contemplated by the Transactional Documents and may not be
relied upon or furnished to any other person in any context. This
opinion may not be quoted by you in any document, instrument or other
writing, in whole or in part, without the prior written consent of this
firm.

otherwise relevant to the Transactional Documents, that the Other Laws
do not prohibit Seller from entering into the Transactional Documents,
restrict or limit the enforceability of any provision of any
Transactional Documents, or otherwise render the execution, delivery or
performance of the Transactional Documents illegal or unenforceable,
and that the Other Laws are not inconsistent with any obligation of
Seller under, or right created by, the Transactional Documents; and (2)
that the courts sitting in any jurisdiction other than the State would

and enforce the choice of law provisions in the Transactional
Documents, which provide that the validity, construction and
enforceability of such documents will be governed by the laws of the
State.
For the purposes of this opinion, references to "my knowledge" or
"actually known to me" or words of similar import mean the actual
knowledge and conscious awareness of facts or other information (I) by
me having given substantive legal attention to the representation of
Buyer in connection with the transactions contemplated by the
Transactional Documents; and (2) solely as to information relevant to a
particular opinion, issue or confirmation regarding a particular
factual matter, by me as I am primarily responsible for providing the
response concerning that particular opinion, issue or confirmation.
Except as specifically noted above, I have not (1) made any independent
review or investigation of any factual matters; (2) undertaken any
investigation of the records of Buyer or any court or other body or
verification of the accuracy of any representations of Buyer, including
without limitation those contained in the Transactional Documents; or
(3) reviewed any agreements or other documents other than those
specifically identified herein as having been examined in connection
with rendering this opinion.
The opinions herein expressed are qualified to the extent that the
validity and enforceability of any provisions in the Transactional
Documents, or any rights granted to the Seller Member pursuant to any
of the Transactional Documents, are subject to and may be affected by
(I) principles of public policy; (2) general equitable principles; and
(3) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent
conveyance, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement
of creditors' rights generally.
I express no opinion as to the availability of any equitable or
specific remedy upon any breach of the Transactional Documents or to
the successful assertion of any equitable defenses, inasmuch as the
availability of such remedies or the success of any equitable defense
may be subject to the discretion of a court.
No opinions are expressed as to the enforceability of provisions in the
Transactional Documents that: (1) restrict access to courts or to legal
or equitable remedies; (2) prescribe evidentiary standards for suits or
proceedings to enforce the Transactional Documents; (3) waive
procedural, judicial or substantive rights, such as rights to notice,
right to a jury trial, statutes of limitations and marshaling of
assets; (3) provide that decisions by a party are conclusive; or (4)
grant or limit the rights of third parties.
I express no opinion as to any provision in the Transactional Documents
(1) which may be deemed to or construed to waive any future right of
Seller; (2) to the effect that rights and remedies are not exclusive,
that every right or remedy is cumulative and may be

exercised in addition to or with any other right or remedy and does not
preclude recourse to one or more other rights or remedies; (3) relating
to the effect of invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of the
Transactional Documents on the validity or enforceability of any other
provision thereof; (4) requiring the payment of penalties,
consequential damages or liquidated damages; (5) which is in violation
of public policy, including but not limited to any provision relating
to indemnification and contribution with respect to securities law
matters; (6) purporting to indemnify any person against such person's
own negligence or intentional misconduct; or (7) which provides that
the terms of the Transactional Documents may not be waived or modified
except in writing.
My opinions expressed in paragraph I, below, insofar as they relate to
the valid existence and good standing of Buyer, are rendered as of the
date of the Articles certified by the Secretary of State of the State
of Delaware, but I am not aware of any circumstance or event since such
date that would alter the valid existence or good standing of Buyer.
For purposes of my opinions rendered below, I have assumed that the
facts and law governing the future performance by Buyer of its
obligations under the Transactional Documents will be identical to the
facts and law governing its performance on the date of this opinion.
Based upon the foregoing, and subject to the qualifications,
assumptions or other limitations set forth herein, we are of the
opinion that:
1. DMG is a limited liability company duly organized and validly
existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware
with full power and authority to own its assets and carryon the
business in which it is now engaged and to execute, deliver and perform
the Transactional Documents.
2. Iron Eagle is a corporation duly organized and validly existing and
in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware with full
power and authority to own its assets and carry on the business in
which it is now engaged and to execute, deliver and perform the
Transactional Documents.
3. DMG has the corporate power and authority to execute, deliver and
perform the Transactional Documents to which it is a party, and the
execution, delivery and performance of said Transactional Documents
have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate and shareholder
action.

4. Iron Eagle has the corporate power and authority to execute, deliver
and perform the Transactional Documents to which it is a party, and the
execution, delivery and performance of said Transactional Documents
have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate and shareholder
action.
5. None of the execution, delivery and performance of the Transactional
Documents by Buyer nor the consummation of the transactions
contemplated thereby, nor the compliance by Buyer with the provisions
thereof, will: (i) to our knowledge, conflict with, or result in any
violations of, or cause a default (with or without notice or lapse of
time, or both) under, or give rise to a right of termination,
amendment, cancellation or acceleration of any obligation contained in,
or the loss of any material benefit under, or result in the creation
of, any lien upon any of the properties or assets of Seller under any
term, condition or provision of the Organizational Documents; or (ii)
violate any laws of the state applicable to Seller or any of its
respective properties.
6. The Transactional Documents have been duly executed and delivered by
Buyer and constitutes the valid and legally binding obligation of
Buyer, enforceable against each of them in accordance with their terms.
This opinion letter is rendered to you in connection with the
transactions contemplated by the Transactional Documents and may not be
relied upon or furnished to any other person in any context. This
opinion may not be quoted by you in any document, instrument or other
writing, in whole or in part, without the prior written consent of this
firm.

Litigation
Regan v Delta
This is a contract dispute in which the aggregate exposure to Delta is
$30,000. Discovery is ongoing and a resolution is not expected before
year end.
Delta/Airpro
The above described matter relates to a contract dispute with a
subcontractor. Delta has filed a bond in the Rhode Island Superior
Court in order to remove a mechanics lien and the parties are
conducting discovery with respect to the claim. The amount in dispute
is approximately $41,000. Airpro was Delta's subcontractor with
respect to a construction project in Rhode Island and has filed
a $41,000 breach of contract suit against Delta. The subject of the
litigation relates to alleged change orders claimed to have been
approved by Airpro which have been denied by Delta due due to a claim
of offsets in excess of the value of the change order. Delta was
required to complete Airpro's work on the project after Airpro became a
defunct corporation and ceased doing work. Delta's claims in the
litigation exceed the value of the change order.
Delta/Nathan Bishop
A.A. Asbestos Abatement Co., Inc. alleges that Delta and three other
subcontractors, McKenna Roofing Co., CapCo Steel Co., and Spino
Brothers Construction Co., Inc., are jointly and severally liable for
mold damage caused by water leaking into the Nathan Bishop Middle
School. The water damage occurred in September, 2009 at a time that
Delta was working at the job site, but was working the middle school's
basement. The general contractor and owner do not allege any
negligence on the part of Delta and do claim that the Owner suffered
damages in the amount of $630,000 allegedly caused by the mold
infestation due to water seepage. A.A. Asbestos has also claimed
approximately $320,000 in damages. The matter is being defended by
Delta's insurance carrier.
Delta/Reliable Construction
Delta has a claim against Reliable Construction for breach of contract
and Reliable Construction filed a counter claim in the action alleging
damages in the amount of $10,000 for unpaid work and materials provided
by Reliable to Delta at the North Smithfield Middle School project.
Delta/American Test
This matter involves a claim by Delta to recover costs associated with
the non-performance and negligent performance by American Test &
Balance under its contract with Delta for testing and balancing
services of mechanical systems to be provided in connection with the
project known as the Rhode Island Training School in Cranston, Rhode
Island. The underlying contract was for $65,000. Change orders (all
disputed) totaled $3,400. Delta paid $45,400 to American Test prior to
terminating the contract. Delta incurred an addition $43,500 in costs
associated with hiring a new firm to perform the work. Delta's stated
claim is $29,000.00. American Test has counterclaimed in the suit
alleging breach of contract, but has not alleged a specific damages
71
amount. It is presumed that American Test seeks payment of $19,600
which constitutes the balance allegedly owed on the contract. In
addition, both Delta and American Test have requested attorney fees
pursuant to R.I.G.L. section 9-1-45 in connection with their respective
claims.
