If the parties can resolve such dispute within thirty (30) days after the receipt by the Purchase of the Dispute Notice, then such agreed upon amount shall be the Earnout Gross Up Amount and the Purchaser shall pay Seller any remaining Earnout Gross Up Amount then due and payable.

(d) The covenants and undertakings contained in this Section 5.4 relate to matters which are of a special, unique and extraordinary character and a violation of any of the terms of this Section 5.4 will cause irreparable injury to the Purchaser, the amount of which will be impossible to estimate or determine and which cannot be adequately compensated. Accordingly, the remedy at law for any breach of this Section 5.4 will be inadequate. Therefore, the Purchaser will be entitled to seek temporary and permanent injunction, restraining order or other equitable relief from any court of competent jurisdiction in the event of any breach of this Section 5.4 without the necessity of proving actual damage or posting any bond whatsoever. The rights and remedies provided by this Section 5.4 are cumulative and in addition to any other rights and remedies which Purchaser may have hereunder or at law or in equity.

(e) The parties hereto agree that, if any court of competent jurisdiction determines that a specified time period, a specified geographical area, a specified business limitation or any other relevant feature of this Section 5.4 is unreasonable, arbitrary or against public policy, then a lesser period of time, geographical area, business limitation or other relevant feature which is determined by such court to be reasonable, not arbitrary and not against public policy may be enforced against the applicable party.

Section 5.5 Public Announcements. Each party agrees not to issue any press release or make any other public announcement relating to this Agreement without the prior written approval of the other party unless required by applicable securities law or securities listing standards (in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the disclosing party) in which case the Seller and the Purchaser will have the right to review such press release or other announcement prior to issuance, distribution or publication.

Section 5.6 Post-Closing Cooperation.

(a) The Purchaser and the Seller shall cooperate with each other, and shall cause their officers, employees, agents, auditors and representatives to cooperate with each other, after the Closing to ensure the orderly transition of the Business from the Seller to the Purchaser and to minimize any disruption to the Business and the other respective businesses of the Seller and the Purchaser that might result from the transactions contemplated hereby. After the Closing, upon reasonable written notice, the Purchaser and the Seller shall furnish or cause to be furnished to each other and their employees, counsel, auditors and representatives access, during normal business hours, to such information and assistance relating to the Business (to the extent within the control of such party) as is reasonably necessary for financial reporting and accounting matters.

(b) After the Closing, upon reasonable written notice, the Purchaser and the Seller shall furnish or cause to be furnished to each other, as promptly as practicable, such information and assistance (to the extent within the control of such party) relating to the transaction contemplated hereby (including, access to books and records) as is reasonably necessary for the filing of all Tax returns, and making of any election related to Taxes, the preparation for any audit by any taxing authority, and the prosecution or defense of any claim, suit or proceeding related to any Tax return. The Seller and the Purchaser shall cooperate with each other in the conduct of any audit or other proceeding relating to Taxes involving the Business. In the event that the Seller shall after the Closing take any position in any state or Tax return, or reach any settlement or agreement on audit, which is in any manner inconsistent with any position taken by the Seller in any filing, settlement or agreement made by the Seller prior to the Closing and such inconsistent position (i) requires the payment by the Purchaser of more Tax than would have been required to be paid had such position not been taken or such settlement or agreement not been reached or (ii) accelerates the time at which any Tax must be paid by the Purchaser, or the Seller, as the case may be, shall provide timely and reasonable notice to the Purchaser of such position.

(c) Each party shall reimburse the other for reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in assisting the other pursuant to this Section 5.6. Neither party shall be required by this Section 5.6 to take any action that would unreasonably interfere with the conduct of its business or unreasonably disrupt its normal operations (or, in the case of the Purchaser, the Business).

Section 5.7 No Shop.

(a) The Seller will not, and will not permit its respective Affiliates, directors, officers, Employees, representatives or agents (collectively, the “Representatives”) to, directly or indirectly, (i) discuss, encourage, negotiate, undertake, initiate, authorize, recommend, propose or enter into, whether as the proposed surviving, merged, acquiring or acquired corporation or otherwise, any transaction involving a merger, consolidation, business combination, purchase or disposition of any material amount of the assets of the Company or any capital stock or other ownership interests of the Company other than the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (an “Alternate Transaction”), (ii) facilitate, encourage, solicit or initiate discussions, negotiations or submissions of proposals or offers in respect of an Alternate Transaction, (iii) furnish or cause to be furnished, to any Person, any information concerning the business, operations, properties or assets of the Company in connection with an Alternate Transaction, or (iv) otherwise cooperate in any way with, or assist or participate in, facilitate or encourage, any effort or attempt by any other Person to do or seek any of the foregoing.

(b) The Seller will (and will cause its Representatives to) immediately cease and cause to be terminated any existing discussions or negotiations with any Persons (other than the Purchaser) conducted heretofore with respect to any Alternate Transaction. The Seller agrees not to release any third party from the confidentiality and standstill provisions of any agreement to which the Company is a party.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 5.8(a), Section 5.8(b) or elsewhere in this Agreement, in the event that the Seller or the Company receives after the date of this Agreement and prior to obtaining the approval of the shareholders of the Seller contemplated by Section 5.3(c) an unsolicited, bona fide written Alternative Transaction Proposal which the Board of Directors of the Seller or the Company reasonably determines to be a Superior Proposal, the Seller and the Company may then take the following actions:

(i) Furnish any information with respect to the Seller and the Company to the Person or group (and their respective Representatives) making such Alternative Transaction Proposal; provided, that (A) prior to furnishing any such information, it receives from such Person or group an executed confidentiality agreement containing confidentiality terms at least as restrictive as the terms contained in the Confidentiality Agreement, and (B) contemporaneously with furnishing any such information to such Person or group, it furnishes such information to Purchaser; and

(ii) Engage in discussions or negotiations with such Person or group (and their Representatives) with respect to such Alternative Transaction Proposal.

Nothing contained herein shall prevent the Seller from disclosing to the shareholders of the Seller a position contemplated by Rule 14d-9 and Rule 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act with regard to an Alternative Transaction Proposal if the Seller determines that failure to disclose such position would be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with applicable Law.

(d) Notification. In addition to the obligations of the Parties set forth in this Section 5.8, as promptly as practicable (and in any event within one (1) Business Day) after receipt of any Alternative Transaction Proposal, any request for nonpublic information, or any inquiry relating in any way to, or that would reasonably be expected to lead to, any Alternative Transaction Proposal, the Seller shall provide the Purchaser with written notice of the material terms and conditions of such Alternative Transaction Proposal, request, or inquiry, and the identity of the Person or group making any such Alternative Transaction Proposal, request, or inquiry, and a copy of all written materials provided to it in connection with such Alternative Transaction Proposal, request, or inquiry. In addition, the Seller shall provide the Purchaser as promptly as practicable (and in any event within one (1) Business Day) with all information as is reasonably necessary to keep the Purchaser fully informed of all material oral or written communications regarding, and the status and changes to the economic or other material terms of, any such Alternative Transaction Proposal, request, or inquiry, and shall provide, as promptly as reasonably practicable, to the Purchaser a copy of all material written materials provided by or to the Seller its, or any of its Representatives in connection with such Alternative Transaction Proposal, request, or inquiry.

(e) Changes of Recommendation; Termination. The Board of Directors of the Seller thereof shall not, directly, or indirectly, (i) (A) withdraw or qualify (or amend or modify in a manner adverse to the Purchaser) or publicly propose to withdraw or qualify (or amend or modify in a manner adverse to the Purchaser), the approval, recommendation, or declaration of advisability by such Board of Directors of this Agreement, or the transactions contemplated hereby, or (B) recommend, adopt, or approve, or propose publicly to recommend, adopt, or approve, any Alternative Transaction Proposal, or (ii) approve or recommend, or publicly propose to approve or recommend, or allow the Company or the Seller or any of their Affiliates to execute or enter into, any letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, agreement in principle, merger agreement, acquisition agreement, option agreement, joint venture agreement, partnership agreement, or other similar agreement, arrangement or understanding (A) constituting, or relating to, any Alternative Transaction Proposal, or (B) requiring it (or that would require it) to abandon, terminate, or fail to consummate any other Transaction (any of the foregoing actions being referred to herein as an “Adverse Recommendation Change”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 5.8(e) or in any other provision of this Agreement, the Board of Directors of the Seller may, solely in response to a Superior Proposal, terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.1(f) and concurrently enter into a definitive agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal and make an Adverse Recommendation Change to its shareholders, if, and only if, all of the following conditions in clauses (i) through (vi) are met:

(i) such Superior Proposal has been made and has not been withdrawn and continues to be a Superior Proposal;

(ii) the approval of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby by the shareholders of the Seller has not been obtained;

(iii) the Seller has (A) provided to the Purchaser five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice that states (1) the Seller has received a Superior Proposal, (2) the material terms and conditions of the Superior Proposal (including the per share value of the consideration offered therein and the identity of the Person or group of Persons making the Superior Proposal) and copies of the relevant proposed transaction agreements with the Person or group of Persons making such Superior Proposal and other material documents, including the definitive agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal, and (3) it intends to terminate this Agreement, and the manner in which it intends to do so, and (B) prior to terminating this Agreement, to the extent requested by the Purchaser, engaged in good faith negotiations with the Purchaser to amend this Agreement in such a manner that the Alternative Transaction Proposal ceases to constitute a Superior Proposal;

(iv) the Board of Directors of the Seller has determined in good faith that, in light of such Superior Proposal and taking into account any revised terms offered by the Purchaser, the failure to terminate this Agreement and accept the Superior Proposal would reasonably be likely to constitute a breach of its fiduciary duties under applicable law; and

(v) the Seller pays all fees and expenses as required pursuant to Section 7.2(c).

Section 5.8 Notification of Certain Matters. The Seller will give notice to the Purchaser and the Purchaser will give notice to the Seller, as promptly as reasonably practicable upon becoming aware of (a) any fact, change, condition, circumstance, event, occurrence or non-occurrence that has caused or is reasonably likely to cause any representation or warranty in this Agreement made by it to be untrue or inaccurate in any respect at any time after the date hereof and prior to the Closing, (b) any material failure on its part to comply with or satisfy any covenant, condition or agreement to be complied with or satisfied by it hereunder or (c) the institution of or the threat of institution of any proceeding against the Seller or the Company related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby; provided that the delivery of any notice pursuant to this Section 5.9 will not limit or otherwise affect the remedies available hereunder to the party receiving such notice, or the representations or warranties of, or the conditions to the obligations of, the parties hereto.

Section 5.9 Additional Capital Contribution. Prior to the Closing, the Seller shall make a capital contribution to the Company in an amount equal to all outstanding debt owed by the Company to the Seller as of October 1, 2011 and shall provide the Purchaser written evidence of such capital contribution (the “Additional Capital Contribution”).

Section 5.10 Removal of GeneLink from Credit Card Merchant Account Guarantee. Within thirty (30) days after the Closing, the Purchaser shall remove the Seller as a guarantor of any credit card merchant services accounts of the Company, and the Seller shall have no further responsibility or obligation with respect to such accounts as of the date of such removal.

Section 5.11 Further Actions. Subject to the other express provisions of this Agreement, upon the request of any party to this Agreement, the other parties will execute and deliver such other documents, instruments and agreements as the requesting party may reasonably require for the purpose of carrying out the intent of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

INDEMNIFICATION

Section 8.1 Indemnification by the Seller. Except for the terms of this Agreement governing the indemnification of certain Tax matters as provided in Article 9, the Seller hereby agrees to indemnify the Purchaser and its directors, officers, Employees, Affiliates (including the Company), stockholders, agents, attorneys, representatives, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Purchaser Indemnified Parties”) and hold each of them harmless from and against, and pay to the applicable Purchaser Indemnified Parties the amount of, any and all claims, losses, liabilities, costs and expenses (including expenses in connection with any action, suit or proceeding, whether involving a third party claim or a claim solely between the parties hereto) (individually, a “Loss” and, collectively, “Losses”), as suffered or incurred (payable promptly upon written request) by such Purchaser Indemnified Party arising from or related to (i) any breach by the Seller or any of it Affiliates of (A) all but any representation or warranty of the Seller that is contained in this Agreement, but only in the event that any such breach existed as of the Signing Date and did not occur thereafter or (B) any covenant of the Seller contained in this Agreement; or (ii) any fees, expenses or other payments incurred or owed by the Seller or the Company to any brokers, financial advisors or comparable other persons retained or employed by it in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 8.2 Indemnification by Purchaser. Except for the terms of this Agreement governing the indemnification of certain Tax matters as provided in Article 9, from and after the Closing, the Purchaser shall indemnify the Seller and its Affiliates and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, stockholders, agents and representatives against, and agrees to hold them harmless from, any Loss, as incurred (payable promptly upon written request), for or on account of or arising from or in connection with or otherwise with respect to (i) any breach of any representation or warranty of the Purchaser contained in this Agreement or in any document delivered in connection herewith, (ii) any breach of any covenant of Purchaser contained in this Agreement, or (iv) any fees, expenses or other payments incurred or owed by Purchaser to any brokers, financial advisors or other comparable persons retained or employed by it in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 8.3 Calculation of Losses. The amount of any Loss for which indemnification is provided under this Article 8 shall be increased to take account of any net Tax cost incurred by the indemnified party arising from the receipt of indemnity payments hereunder (grossed up for such increase).

Section 8.4 Procedures.

(a) In order for a party (the “indemnified party”), to be entitled to any indemnification provided for under this Agreement in respect of, arising out of or involving a claim made by any person against the indemnified party (a “Third Party Claim”), such indemnified party must notify the indemnifying party in writing of the Third Party Claim receipt by such indemnified party of notice of the Third Party Claim; provided, however, that failure to give such notification shall not affect the indemnification provided hereunder except to the extent the indemnifying party shall have been actually and materially prejudiced as a result of such failure. Thereafter, the indemnified party shall deliver to the indemnifying party, promptly following the indemnified party’s receipt thereof, copies of all notices and documents (including court papers) received by the indemnified party relating to the Third Party Claim.

(b) If a Third Party Claim is made against an indemnified party, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in the defense thereof and, if it so chooses, to assume the defense thereof with counsel selected by the indemnifying party; provided, however, that such counsel is not reasonably objected to by the indemnified party. Should the indemnifying party so elect to assume the defense of a Third Party Claim, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to the indemnified party for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof. If the indemnifying party assumes such defense, the indemnified party shall have the right to participate in the defense thereof and to employ counsel, at its own expense, separate from the counsel employed by the indemnifying party, it being understood that the indemnifying party shall control such defense. The indemnifying party shall be liable for the fees and expenses of counsel employed by the indemnified party for any period during which the indemnifying party has not assumed the defense thereof (other than during any period in which the indemnified party shall have failed to give notice of the Third Party Claim as provided above). If the indemnifying party chooses to defend or prosecute a Third Party Claim, all the indemnified parties shall cooperate in the defense or prosecution thereof. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the indemnifying party’s request) the provision to the indemnifying party of records and information that are reasonably relevant to such Third Party Claim, and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. Whether or not the indemnifying party assumes the defense of a Third Party Claim, the indemnified party shall not admit any liability with respect to, or settle, compromise or discharge, such Third Party Claim without the indemnifying party’s prior written consent which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. If the indemnifying party assumes the defense of a Third Party Claim, the indemnified party shall agree to any settlement, compromise or discharge of a Third Party Claim that the indemnifying party may recommend and that by its terms obligates the indemnifying party to pay the full amount of the liability in connection with such Third Party Claim, which releases the indemnified party completely in connection with such Third Party Claim and that would not otherwise adversely affect the indemnified party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnifying party shall not be entitled to assume the defense of any Third Party Claim (and shall be liable for the fees and expenses of counsel incurred by the indemnified party in defending such Third Party Claim) if the Third Party Claim seeks an order, injunction or other equitable relief or relief for other than money damages against the indemnified party that the indemnified party reasonably determines, after conferring with its outside counsel, cannot be separated from any related claim for money damages. If such equitable relief or other relief portion of the Third Party Claim can be so separated from that for money damages, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to assume the defense of the portion relating to money damages.

(c) Other Claims. In the event any indemnified party should have a claim against any indemnifying party under Section 8.1 or Section 8.2 that does not involve a Third Party Claim being asserted against or sought to be collected from such indemnified party, the indemnified party shall deliver notice of such claim with reasonable promptness to the indemnifying party. The failure by any indemnified party so to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability that it may have to such indemnified party under Section 8.1 or Section 8.2, except to the extent that the indemnifying party demonstrates that it has been materially prejudiced by such failure. If the indemnifying party does not notify the indemnified party within ten (10) Business Days following its receipt of such notice that the indemnifying party disputes its liability to the indemnified party under Section 8.1 or Section 8.2, such claim specified by the indemnified party in such notice shall be conclusively deemed a liability of the indemnifying party under Section 8.1 or Section 8.2 and the indemnifying party shall pay the amount of such liability to the indemnified party on demand or, in the case of any notice in which the amount of the claim (or any portion thereof) is estimated, on such later date when the amount of such claim (or such portion thereof) becomes finally determined. If the indemnifying party has timely disputed its liability with respect to such claim, as provided above, the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall proceed in good faith to negotiate a resolution of such dispute and, if not resolved through negotiations, such dispute shall be resolved by litigation in an appropriate court of competent jurisdiction.

Section 8.5 Setoff. Any amount owed to any Purchaser Indemnified Parties by the Seller pursuant to Section 8.1 shall first be set-off against any amounts owed by any Purchaser Indemnified Parties to the Seller or its Affiliates under this Agreement, including any amounts owed in connection with the Earnout Consideration.

Section 8.6 Limitation of Liability. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall (i) the Seller be liable to the Purchaser Indemnified Parties for any Losses under this Article 8 over and above Seven Million Five Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($7,500,000) aggregated across all such Losses, or (ii) either party be liable to the other party under this Article 8 or otherwise for any punitive, consequential or special damages, claims of lost or prospective profits or any similar claim or damage.

Section 8.7 Price Adjustment. Any payment pursuant to this Article 8 shall be treated for all tax purposes as an adjustment to the Purchase Price.

ARTICLE 9

TAX MATTERS

Section 9.1 Tax Matters. The following provisions shall govern the allocation of responsibility between the Seller and the Purchaser for certain Tax matters following the Closing Date.

(a) Tax Indemnification. Notwithstanding anything else contained in this Agreement, the Seller shall indemnify the Company and the Purchaser and hold them harmless from and against, any loss, claim, liability, expense or other damage attributable to (i) all Taxes (or the nonpayment thereof) of Company for all Tax periods ending on or before the Closing Date and the portion through the end of the Closing Date of any Tax period that includes (but does not end on) the Closing Date (each such Tax period or portion thereof hereinafter is referred to as a “Pre-Closing Tax Period”), (ii) all Taxes of any member of an affiliated, consolidated, combined, or unitary group of which the Company (or any predecessor of the Company) is or was a member on or prior to the Closing Date, including pursuant to Treasury Regulation §1.1502-6 or any analogous or similar state, local, or foreign law or regulation; and (iii) any and all Taxes of any person (other than Company) imposed on the Company as a transferee or successor, by Contract or pursuant to any law, which Taxes relate to an event or transaction occurring before the Closing. Seller shall reimburse Purchaser for any Taxes that are the responsibility of Seller within thirty (30) Business Days after payment of such Taxes by the Purchaser or the Company.

(b) Straddle Period. In the case of any Tax period that includes (but does not end on) the Closing Date (such Tax period hereinafter is referred to as a “Straddle Period”), the amount of any Taxes based on or measured by income or receipts of the Company for the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be determined based on an interim closing of the books as of the Closing Date (and for such purpose, the Tax period of any partnership or other pass-through entity in which Company holds any beneficial interest shall be deemed to terminate at such time) and the amount of other Taxes of the Company for a Straddle Period that relates to the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire taxable period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days from the beginning of the Straddle Period through and including the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in such Straddle Period.

(c) Responsibility for Filing Tax Returns for Periods through Closing Date. The Seller shall include the income of the Company (including any deferred items triggered into income by Treasury Regulations §1.1502-13 and any excess loss account taken into income under Treasury Regulations §1.1502-19) on the Seller’s consolidated federal income Tax Returns for all periods through the Closing Date and pay any federal income Taxes attributable to such income. For all taxable periods ending on or before the Closing Date, the Seller shall cause the Company to join the Seller’s consolidated federal income Tax Return and, in jurisdictions requiring separate reporting from the Seller, to file separate company state and local income Tax Returns. All such Tax Returns shall be prepared and filed in a manner consistent with prior practice, except as required by a change in applicable law. The Purchaser shall have the right to review and comment on any such Tax Returns prepared by the Seller. The Purchaser shall cause the Company to furnish information to the Seller as reasonably requested by the Seller to allow the Seller to satisfy its obligations under this section in accordance with past custom and practice. The Purchaser shall cause the Company to file income Tax Returns or shall include the Company in its combined or consolidated income Tax Returns for all periods other than periods ending on or before the Closing Date.

(d) Cooperation on Tax Matters. After the Closing Date, the parties hereto shall:

(i) cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other party, in connection with the filing of Tax Returns pursuant to Section 9.1(c) and any audits of, or disputes with Governmental Authorities regarding, any Taxes or Tax Returns of the Company and take any actions reasonably requested by the other party in connection therewith;

(ii) make available to one another and to any Governmental Authority, as reasonably requested in connection with any Tax Return described in this section or any audit, litigation, or other proceeding with respect to Taxes, all reasonably relevant information relating to any Taxes or Tax Returns of the Company, and make employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder;

(iii) furnish one another with copies of all correspondence received from any Governmental Authority in connection with any Tax audit or information request with respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period;

(iv) use their respective best efforts to obtain any certificate or other document from any Governmental Authority or any other Person as may be necessary to mitigate, reduce, or eliminate any Tax that could be imposed (including, without limitation, with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby);

(v) upon request, provide to the other party all information that the other party may be required to report pursuant to Code Section 6043, or Code Section 6043A, or Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder; and

(vi) retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to the Company relating to any taxable period beginning before the Closing Date until the expiration of the statute of limitations (and, to the extent notified by Purchaser or Seller, any extensions thereof) of the respective taxable periods, and to abide by all record retention agreements entered into with any Governmental Authority, and to give the other Person reasonable written notice prior to transferring, destroying or discarding any such books and records and, if the other Person so requests, the Purchaser or the Seller, as the case may be, shall allow the other Person to take possession of such books and records.

(e) Tax Sharing Agreements. All Tax sharing agreements or similar agreements with respect to or involving Company shall be terminated as of the Closing Date and, after the Closing Date, the Company shall not be bound thereby nor have any liability thereunder.

(f) Certain Taxes and Fees. All transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration, and other such Taxes, and all conveyance fees, recording charges, and other fees and charges (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be paid by Seller when due, and Seller will, at its own expense, file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to all such Taxes, fees, and charges, and, if required by applicable law, the Purchaser will, and will cause the Company to, join in the execution of any such Tax Returns and other documentation.

(g) Audits. The Seller shall allow the Purchaser and its counsel to participate in any audit of the Seller’s consolidated federal income Tax Returns to the extent that such returns relate to the Company. The Seller shall not settle any such audit in a manner that would adversely affect the Company after the Closing Date without the prior written consent of the Purchaser, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

(h) Carrybacks. The Seller shall immediately pay to the Purchaser any Tax refund (or reduction in Tax liability) resulting from a carryback of a post-acquisition Tax attribute of the Company into the Seller consolidated Tax Return, when such refund (or reduction) is realized by the Seller’s group. At the Purchaser’s request, the Seller will cooperate with the Company in obtaining such refund (or reduction), including through the filing of amended Tax Returns or refund claims. The Purchaser agrees to indemnify Seller for any Taxes resulting from the disallowance of such post-acquisition Tax attribute on audit.

(i) Retention of Carryovers. The Seller shall not elect to retain any net operating loss carryover or capital loss carryovers of the Company.

(j) Section 338(h)(10) Election. At the Purchaser’s option, the Seller and the Purchaser shall join in making an election under Code Section 338(h)(10) (and any corresponding election under state, local or non-U.S. Tax law) (collectively a “Section 338(h)(10) Election”) with respect to the purchase and sale of the stock of the Company hereunder. The Seller will pay any Tax attributable to the making of the Section 338(h)(10) Election and will indemnify the Purchaser and the Company against any adverse consequences arising out of any failure to pay such Tax. The parties agree that the Total Consideration and the liabilities of the Company will be allocated to the assets of the Company for all purposes (including Tax and financial accounting purposes) in a manner consistent with Code Section 338 and Code Section 1060 and the regulations thereunder. The Purchaser, the Company and the Seller shall file all Tax Returns (including amended Tax Returns and claims for refund) and information reports in a manner consistent with such allocation.
