All capitalized terms used in this Agreement without definition shall have the meanings set forth in Section 8.12.

WHEREAS, the Company is a Delaware limited liability company subject to the terms of that certain Limited Liability Company Agreement, dated as of March 6, 2002 (the “LLC Agreement”), pursuant to which all of the Company’s limited liability company interests (the “Membership Interests”) have been issued to Seller;

WHEREAS, the Company (i) provides basic financial services to un-banked and underbanked individuals in the United States through the prepaid VISA RushCard, and (ii) sells and distributes paycard processing services to small- and medium-sized corporations that are seeking a digital solution to the manual payroll check-writing process; and

WHEREAS, Buyer desires to purchase from Seller, and Seller desires to sell, assign, transfer, convey and deliver to Buyer, all of the Membership Interests, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein.

WHEREAS, on the date hereof and in connection with Buyer’s purchase of the Membership Interests, Russell Simmons, one of the founders of the Company, is entering into that certain Endorsement and License Agreement with the Company (the “Endorsement and License Agreement”) and that certain Founders Restrictive Covenant Agreement with Buyer.

AGREEMENT

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements, covenants, representations and warranties hereafter set forth, and intending to be legally bound, Buyer, the Company and Seller hereby agree as follows:

Article I.PURCHASE AND SALE OF EQUITY

Section 1.01 Purchase and Sale of Equity. At the Closing, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, Seller shall sell, convey, transfer, assign and deliver to Buyer, and Buyer shall purchase and acquire from Seller, all of Seller’s right, title and interest in and to all of the Membership Interests of the Company, free and clear of all Liens (other than any Liens permitted by Buyer and any restrictions on transfer under federal and state securities Laws).

Section 1.02 Purchase Price.

(a) Purchase Price. In consideration for the Membership Interests, Buyer shall pay the Adjusted Purchase Price to Seller in accordance with Section 1.03(b) and Section 1.05 and the Earn-Out Payments in accordance with Section 1.07 (collectively, the “Purchase Price”).

1002446029v14

(b) Tax Treatment; Allocation of Purchase Price. For U.S. federal and applicable state and local income Tax purposes, each of Buyer, the Company and Seller intends, and shall treat and report (and, to the extent applicable, cause its Affiliates to treat and report), the transfer of the Membership Interests to Buyer pursuant to Section 1.01 as the sale by Seller to Buyer of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries for aggregate consideration consisting of the Purchase Price (plus other amounts properly treated as consideration for Tax purposes). The Purchase Price and other amounts properly treated as consideration for Tax purposes shall be allocated among the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries (the “Allocation Schedule”) in accordance with Schedule 1.02(b) and Section 1060 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and the related Treasury Regulations (and any similar provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law), which Allocation Schedule Buyer shall prepare and deliver to Seller within 90 days after the Closing Date. If Seller notifies Buyer in writing within 20 days of Buyer’s delivery to Seller of the Allocation Schedule that Seller objects to one or more items reflected in the Allocation Schedule, Seller and Buyer shall negotiate in good faith to resolve such dispute; provided, however, that if Seller and Buyer are unable to resolve any dispute with respect to the Allocation Schedule within 30 days following Seller’s written notification to Buyer of such objection, such dispute shall be resolved by the Accountants. The fees and expenses of the Accountants for their review and resolution of any such disputed items shall be borne by Buyer and Seller in inverse proportion as Buyer and Seller, respectively, may prevail on the matters resolved by the Accountants under this Section 1.02(b) (determined based on the final determination of the disputed items, measured in terms of dollars, relative to the aggregate dollar amount of the items in dispute), which proportionate allocation shall also be determined by the Accountants. Within 30 days of any adjustment to the Purchase Price under any provision of this Agreement, Buyer shall adjust the Allocation Schedule in a manner consistent with Code Section 1060 and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder (as adjusted, the “Adjusted Allocation Schedule”) and this Section 1.02(b) and deliver a copy of the Adjusted Allocation Schedule to Seller. Any disputes concerning the Adjusted Allocation Schedule shall be resolved in accordance with the foregoing procedures set forth in this Section 1.02(b). Seller and Buyer agree to utilize the Allocation Schedule (or the Adjusted Allocation Schedule, as applicable) for Tax reporting purposes, including the filing of Form 8594 with the Internal Revenue Service. Unless otherwise required by a Final Determination, no party shall file any Tax Return with, or take any position in any proceedings before, any Governmental Authority that is inconsistent with the Allocation Schedule (or the Adjusted Allocation Schedule, as applicable). If any state or federal taxing authority challenges the Allocation Schedule (or the Adjusted Allocation Schedule, as applicable), the party receiving notice of the challenge shall promptly provide notice to the other parties.

Buyer may submit any objections in writing to the Company until 5:00 p.m. Pacific time on the Business Day prior to the Closing Date, and the Company will cooperate in good faith with Buyer to revise the Estimated Adjusted Purchase Price Statement to reflect the mutual agreement of the Company and Buyer, but if they do not agree, then the Company’s estimate shall apply.

Within 60 days after the Closing Date, Buyer shall prepareand deliver to Seller a statement (the “Final Adjusted Purchase Price Statement”), certified by Buyer’s Chief Executive Officer, setting forth the calculation of the Adjusted Purchase Price, which shall include reasonably itemized detail of Buyer’s calculation of (i) each of the Subject Debt, the Transaction Expenses, the Transaction Bonuses, the Extraordinary Items and Closing Working Capital and (ii) the Working Capital Surplus or Working Capital Deficit, as the case may be.

(b) Dispute Notice. Within 30 days after delivery of the Final Adjusted Purchase Price Statement, Seller may either:

(i) agree in writing with Buyer’s calculations, in which case such calculations will be final and binding on the parties for purposes of this Agreement; or

(ii) dispute Buyer’s calculations by delivering to Buyer a written notice (a “Dispute Notice”) setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for each such disputed item.

If Seller fails to take either of the foregoing actions within 30 days after delivery of the Adjustment Notice, then Seller will be deemed to have irrevocably accepted the Final Adjusted Purchase Price Statement, in which case, the Final Adjusted Purchase Price Statement will be final and binding on the parties for purposes of this Agreement. During such 30-day period, Buyer and the Company shall provide to Seller all information, records, data and working papers, and access to such employees, accountants and representatives of Buyer or the Company, during normal business hours, as may be reasonably requested by Seller for the purpose of reviewing and evaluating the information contained in the Final Adjusted Purchase Price Statement.

(c) Resolution Efforts. The parties shall use reasonable best efforts to reach an agreement with respect to the disputed items within the 30 days following delivery of the Dispute Notice, or such longer period as may be agreed upon in writing by the parties (the “Resolution Period”). During the Resolution Period, each party will use its reasonable best efforts to provide promptly to the other parties all information, records, data and working papers, and access to employees as such other party will reasonably request in connection with the resolution of the Dispute Notice, and will otherwise cooperate in good faith with such other party to arrive at a final determination of the Final Adjusted Purchase Price Statement.

(d) Disputes. If, at the end of the Resolution Period, Seller and Buyer have not resolved in writing the matters specified in the Dispute Notice, then the parties agree that they shall jointly refer such dispute to the Accountants. Buyer and Seller shall instruct the Accountants to issue a report to Buyer and Seller setting forth their determination, in detail, of the amount of each component of the Adjusted Purchase Price calculated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, within 30 days after any dispute is referred to them, and such determination shall be final and binding upon the parties for all purposes of this Agreement. The Accountants may not assign a value greater than the greatest value for such item claimed by either Buyer or Seller or smaller than the smallest value claimed by either Buyer or Seller and will be instructed to resolve only those items or amounts in Buyer’s calculation as to which Seller has disputed in the Dispute Notice and that remain unresolved. Seller and Buyer shall provide the Accountants with all financial information concerning the business of the Company that is reasonably requested by the Accountants for purposes of making the determination required by this Section 1.05(d) (subject to the Accountants having executed a confidentiality agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Seller and Buyer with respect to all information made available pursuant hereto). The fees and expenses of the Accountants for their review, resolution of any such disputed items and report under this Section 1.05(d) shall be borne by Buyer and Seller in inverse proportion as Buyer and Seller, respectively, may prevail on the matters resolved by the Accountants under this Section 1.05(d) (determined based on the final determination of the disputed items, measured in terms of dollars, relative to the aggregate dollar amount of the items in dispute), which proportionate allocation shall also be determined by the Accountants and included in the report delivered to Buyer and Seller by the Accountants.

(e) Adjustment Payment. If as a result of the final determination of the Adjusted Purchase Price pursuant to this Section 1.05:

(i) the Adjusted Purchase Price as finally determined pursuant to this Section 1.05 exceeds the Estimated Adjusted Purchase Price, then within five (5) Business Days after the date of the final determination of the Adjusted Purchase Price, (A) Buyer shall pay to Seller the amount of such excess by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated in writing by Seller and (B) Buyer and Seller will jointly instruct the Escrow Agent to disburse to Seller, out of the Purchase Price Adjustment/Special Escrow Amount, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by Seller, an amount equal to $500,000; or

(ii) the Adjusted Purchase Price as finally determined pursuant to this Section 1.05 is less than the Estimated Adjusted Purchase Price, within five (5) Business Days after the date of the final determination of the Adjusted Purchase Price, Buyer and Seller will jointly instruct the Escrow Agent to (A) disburse to Buyer, out of the Purchase Price Adjustment/Special Escrow Amount, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by Buyer, an amount equal to such shortfall (the “Purchase Price Adjustment Shortfall”) and (B) if the Purchase Price Adjustment Shortfall is less than $500,000, disburse to Seller, out of the Purchase Price Adjustment/Special Escrow Amount, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by Seller, an amount equal to $500,000 minus the Purchase Price Adjustment Shortfall. Seller shall not have any liability for any amounts due pursuant to this Section 1.05(e)(ii) except to the extent of the funds available in the Escrow Accounts.

A payment by Buyer or Seller under this Section 1.05(e) will be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by applicable Law.

Section 1.06 Escrow Accounts.

(a) Pursuant to Section 1.03(b)(ii), at the Closing, the Escrow Amount will be deposited with the Escrow Agent in accordance with the Escrow Agreement. A portion of the Escrow Amount equal to the amount set forth on Schedule 1.06(a)(i) will be designated as the “Indemnity Escrow Amount” and deposited into a separate escrow account (the “Indemnity Escrow Account”) and the remaining portion of the Escrow Amount equal to the amount set forth on Schedule 1.06(a)(ii) less the Special Escrow Adjustment will be designated as the “Purchase Price Adjustment/Special Escrow Amount” and deposited into a separate escrow account (the “Purchase Price Adjustment/Special Escrow Account”). The Escrow Amount, as adjusted from time to time and including the principal amount of any Escrow Notes, together with any interest or other income earned thereon, is referred to herein as the “Escrow Funds.” In the event that Buyer makes any payment on any Escrow Note while such Escrow Note is held in escrow by the Escrow Agent, any payment of principal or interest on such Escrow Note shall be delivered to the Escrow Agent to be held as Escrow Funds. Any Escrow Funds held in the Purchase Price Adjustment/Special Escrow Account will serve as a security for, and a source of payment of, (i) the adjustment of the Adjusted Purchase Price pursuant to Section 1.05(e)(ii), if any, and (ii) any amounts owed to Buyer Indemnified Parties pursuant to Section 6.02(a)(iv), Section 6.02(a)(v), Section 6.02(a)(vi), Section 6.02(a)(vii), Section 6.02(a)(viii), Section 6.02(a)(ix), Section 6.02(a)(x) and Section 6.02(xi). Any Escrow Funds held in the Indemnity Escrow Account will serve as a security for, and source of payment of, (A) any amounts owed to Buyer Indemnified Parties pursuant to Section 6.02(a)(i), Section 6.02(a)(ii) and Section 6.02(a)(iii) and (B) any amounts owed to Buyer Indemnified Parties pursuant to Section 6.02(a)(iv), Section 6.02(a)(v), Section 6.02(a)(vi), Section 6.02(a)(vii), Section 6.02(a)(viii), Section 6.02(a)(ix), Section 6.02(a)(x) and Section 6.02(xi) to the extent in excess of the Purchase Price Adjustment/Special Escrow Amount. All fees and expenses of the Escrow Agent will be paid by the parties in accordance with the Escrow Agreement. The Escrow Agreement shall provide that Buyer will be treated as owner of the Escrow Funds for tax purposes.

(b) If during the period beginning on the date hereof and ending on the Closing Date, (x) any amount is paid by the Company to a third Person in full or partial satisfaction of the Special Indemnified Items, the Purchase Price Adjustment/Special Escrow Amount shall be reduced by the amount of such payment or (y) the Company enters into the Allocation Agreement, the Purchase Price Adjustment/Special Escrow Amount shall be reduced by the CFPB Amount (the sum of all reductions pursuant to this Section 1.06(b) expressed as a positive number, the “Special Escrow Adjustment”).

(c) The Escrow Funds will be disbursed by the Escrow Agent in accordance with the Escrow Agreement and Section 1.05(e), this Section 1.06 and Section 6.06 of this Agreement; provided, that to the extent that the Escrow Funds have been funded with Escrow Notes, any disbursement of Escrow Funds in accordance with this Section 1.06 or Section 6.06 (i) to Buyer, shall be made by offsetting the amount of such payment against the outstanding principal amount of the Escrow Notes and (ii) to Seller, shall be made by distributing Escrow Notes with an equivalent principal amount to Seller; provided, further, Buyer may elect to, or upon the Escrow Agent’s or Seller’s request Buyer shall, deliver replacement Escrow Notes having a principal amount reduced by the amount of any offset or reflecting the applicable principal amount to be distributed to Seller, and upon its receipt of such replacement Escrow Notes Escrow Agent shall deliver to Buyer the Escrow Notes so replaced.

(d) Within five (5) Business Days following:

(i) the Expiration Date, the Indemnity Escrow Amount then remaining (including, for the avoidance of doubt, all interest and other income earned thereon and not previously distributed pursuant to the Escrow Agreement) less an amount sufficient to cover any outstanding and unpaid indemnification claims pursuant to Article VI made in good faith prior to 12:00 a.m., New York Time, on the Expiration Date will be released to Seller;

(ii) the Resolution Date, the Purchase Price Adjustment/Special Escrow Amount then remaining (including, for the avoidance of doubt, all interest and other income earned thereon and not previously distributed pursuant to the Escrow Agreement) less (A) an amount sufficient to cover any outstanding and unpaid indemnification claims pursuant to Section 6.02(a)(vi), Section 6.02(a)(viii), Section 6.02(a)(ix), Section 6.02(a)(x) or Section 6.02(a)(xi) made in good faith prior to 12:00 a.m., New York Time, on the Resolution Date, (B) if prior to the BSA Completion Date, the BSA Reserve Amount, (C) if prior to the Kansas Completion Date, the Kansas Reserve Amount and (D) if prior to the Opt-Out Completion Date, the Opt-Out Reserve Amount, will be released to Seller; provided that (x) to the extent any amount referred to in clause (A) relates to a matter secured by any of the Reserve Amounts, the applicable Reserve Amount shall be reduced (but not below zero) by the amount referred to in clause (A) relating to such Reserve Amount and (y) if the balance of the Purchase Price Adjustment/Special Escrow Account on the Resolution Date is insufficient to satisfy the applicable Reserve Amounts required to be withheld from the disbursement pursuant to this clause (ii), each such Reserve Amount shall be reduced by its pro rata portion of the shortfall;

(iii) the BSA Completion Date, the BSA Reserve Amount then remaining (including, for the avoidance of doubt, all interest and other income earned thereon and not previously distributed pursuant to the Escrow Agreement) will be released to Seller out of the Purchase Price Adjustment/Special Escrow Account;

(iv) the Kansas Completion Date, the Kansas Reserve Amount then remaining (including, for the avoidance of doubt, all interest and other income earned thereon and not previously distributed pursuant to the Escrow Agreement) will be released to Seller out of the Purchase Price Adjustment/Special Escrow Account; and

(v) the Opt-Out Completion Date, the Opt-Out Reserve Amount then remaining (including, for the avoidance of doubt, all interest and other income earned thereon and not previously distributed pursuant to the Escrow Agreement) will be released to Seller out of the Purchase Price Adjustment/Special Escrow Account.

After the applicable date on which the Escrow Funds are released pursuant to the foregoing sentence, upon the settlement or final determination of any prior or pending indemnification claim under Article VI, any amount remaining in the Escrow Accounts relating to such prior or pending indemnification claim will be immediately released to Seller or to Buyer, as the case may be.

Section 1.07 Earn-Out.

(a) Earn-Out Payment Statement. Within 75 days after the end of each Earn-Out Period, Buyer shall prepare and deliver to Seller a statement (the “Earn-Out Statement”), certified by Buyer’s Chief Accounting Officer, setting forth the calculation of the Earn-Out Amount for such Earn-Out Period, which shall include reasonably itemized detail of Buyer’s calculation of RushCard GPR Revenue and YOY Growth for such Earn-Out Period.

(b) Dispute Notice. Within 45 days after delivery of the Earn-Out Statement, Seller may either:

(i) agree in writing with Buyer’s calculations, in which case such calculations will be final and binding on the parties for purposes of this Agreement; or

(ii) dispute Buyer’s calculations by delivering to Buyer a written notice (the “Earn-Out Dispute Notice”) setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for each such disputed item and Seller’s calculation, in detail, of what Seller believes is the amount of the RushCard GPR Revenue, YOY Growth and the resulting Earn-Out Amount.

If Seller fails to take either of the foregoing actions within 45 days after delivery of the Earn-Out Statement, then Seller will be deemed to have irrevocably accepted such Earn-Out Statement, in which case, the Earn-Out Amount set forth in such Earn-Out Statement will be final and binding on the parties for purposes of this Agreement. During such 45-day period, Buyer and the Company shall provide to Seller all information, records, data and working papers, and access to such employees, accountants and representatives of Buyer or the Company, during normal business hours, as may be reasonably requested by Seller for the purpose of reviewing and evaluating the information contained in the Earn-Out Statement.

(c) Resolution Efforts. The parties shall use reasonable best efforts to reach an agreement with respect to the disputed items within the 30 days following delivery of the Earn-Out Dispute Notice, or such longer period as may be agreed upon in writing by the parties (the “Earn-Out Resolution Period”). During the Earn-Out Resolution Period, each party will use its reasonable best efforts to provide promptly to the other parties all information, records, data and working papers, and access to employees as such other party will reasonably request in connection with the resolution of the Earn-Out Dispute Notice, and will otherwise cooperate in good faith with such other party to arrive at a final determination of the Earn-Out Amount for the applicable Earn-Out Period.

(d) Disputes. If, at the end of the Earn-Out Resolution Period, Seller and Buyer have not resolved in writing the matters specified in the Earn-Out Dispute Notice, then the parties agree that they shall jointly refer such dispute to the Accountants. Buyer and Seller shall instruct the Accountants to issue a report to Buyer and Seller setting forth their determination, in detail, of the Earn-Out Amount for the applicable Earn-Out Period and each component thereof, including, without limitation, the RushCard GPR Revenue and YOY Growth for such Earn-Out Period, calculated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, within 30 days after such dispute is referred to them, and such determination will be final and binding upon the parties for all purposes of this Agreement. The Accountants may not assign a value greater than the greatest value for such item claimed by either Buyer or Seller or smaller than the smallest value claimed by either Buyer or Seller and will be instructed to resolve only those items or amounts in the Earn-Out Statement that Seller has disputed in the Earn-Out Dispute Notice and that remain unresolved. The Company and Buyer shall provide the Accountants with all financial information concerning the RushCard GPR Business that is reasonably requested by the Accountants for purposes of

making the determination required by this Section 1.07(d) (subject to the Accountants having executed a confidentiality agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Buyer with respect to all information made available pursuant hereto). The fees and expenses of the Accountants for their review, resolution of any such disputed items and report under this Section 1.07(d) shall be borne by Buyer and Seller in inverse proportion as Buyer and Seller, respectively, may prevail on the matters resolved by the Accountants under this Section 1.07(d) (determined based on the final determination of the disputed items, measured in terms of dollars, relative to the aggregate dollar amount of the items in dispute), which proportionate allocation shall also be determined by the Accountants and included in the report delivered to Buyer and Seller by the Accountants.

(e) Earn-Out Payments. Within five (5) Business Days after the end of each of the first three calendar quarters during an Earn-Out Period Buyer shall pay to Seller the Earn-Out Prepayment Amount for such quarter. Within five (5) Business Days after a final determination of the RushCard GPR Revenue, YOY Growth and the resulting Earn-Out Amount for such Earn-Out Period, pursuant to this Section 1.07, Buyer shall pay to Seller the amount equal to (i) such Earn-Out Amount minus (ii) the sum of the Earn-Out Prepayment Amounts paid during such Earn-Out Period pursuant to the preceding sentence. All payments under this Section 1.07(e) shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated in writing by Seller. A payment by Buyer under this Section 1.07(e) will be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by applicable Law. Buyer may not offset any claim it may have against Seller in respect of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby against the Earn-Out Payments.

(f) Buyer Covenant. Seller acknowledges and agrees that (i) during the Earn-Out Periods, Buyer is free to operate the RushCard GPR Business in a manner determined by Buyer, in its sole discretion, to be in the best interest of Buyer and its stockholders, which may include reducing operating expenses (including marketing expenses) and consolidating operations (including consolidation of staff members and facilities) in order to achieve the most efficient cost per funded customer, and (ii) the $4,000,000 twelve-month minimum in Earn-Out Payments are provided in connection with Buyer’s right to operate the RushCard GPR Business in such manner. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer agrees to not take any action the primary purpose of which is to reduce the Earn-Out Amounts.

Section 1.08 Tax Withholdings. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Buyer (or any other party making a payment pursuant to this Agreement) shall be entitled to withhold and deduct from any consideration payable or otherwise deliverable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as such Person is required to deduct and withhold therefore under the Code or any provision of federal, state, local or foreign Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so deducted or withheld, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding were made. Any Tax required to be withheld on amounts payable under this Agreement by Buyer (or any other party making a payment pursuant to this Agreement) to Seller will be paid by Buyer (or any other party making such payment) on behalf of Seller to the appropriate governmental authority, and Buyer (or any other party making such payment) will furnish Seller with official receipts evidencing the payment of such Tax. Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to deducting or withholding any amounts from any payment hereunder in respect of Taxes (other than any backup withholding or any such Tax that is imposed on consideration treated as compensation for U.S. federal income Tax purposes), Buyer (or any other party making such payment) will use commercially reasonable efforts to give advance notice to Seller and reasonably cooperate with Seller in order to execute and file any forms or certificates requested by Seller that are reasonably required to claim an available reduced rate of, or exemption from, any such deduction or withholding.

The Company or one of its Subsidiaries has good and marketable title to, or in the case of leased or licensed Company Assets, a valid and subsisting leasehold interest or licensee interest in, all the Company Assets free and clear of all Liens except Permitted Liens.

Buyer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless each of Seller and the Company and their respective partners, members, directors, managers, officers, employees, accountants, legal counsel and other Representatives from and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages, claims, costs, expenses, interest, awards, judgments and penalties suffered or incurred by them in connection with the Financing and the performance of their respective obligations under this Section 4.10 and any information utilized in connection therewith, in each case other than to the extent arising out of a material misstatement or omission in information provided to Buyer by or on behalf of Seller or the Company pursuant to this Section 4.10. If the Closing does not occur, Buyer shall, promptly upon request of Seller at any time after the termination of this Agreement for any reason, reimburse Seller and the Company for all reasonable and documented costs, fees and expenses incurred through the date of such termination in connection with the cooperation required by this Section 4.10.

Section 6.03 Limits on Indemnification Liability. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary:

(a) Neither Buyer, on the one hand, nor Seller, on the other hand, shall have any liability for an individual claim or group of related claims under Section 6.02(a)(i) or Section 6.02(b)(i), as applicable, unless the amount of Losses relating to, arising from or with respect to such claim or group of related claims exceeds the Per Claim Threshold, it being understood that any such individual claim or group of related claims for amounts less than the Per Claim Threshold will be ignored for purposes of determining whether the Basket Amount has been exceeded; provided, however, that no such limitations shall apply to liability relating to, arising from or with respect to breach or inaccuracy of Fundamental Representations or the representations and warranties set forth in Section 2.15.

(b) Neither Buyer, on the one hand, nor Seller, on the other hand, shall have any liability for indemnification claims under Section 6.02(a)(i) or Section 6.02(b)(i), as applicable, until the aggregate Losses relating to, arising from or with respect to all such claims exceeds the Basket Amount, in which event Buyer or Seller, as applicable, will be required to pay or be liable for all Losses in excess of the Basket Amount; provided, however, that no such limitations shall apply to liability relating to, arising from or with respect to breach or inaccuracy of Fundamental Representations or the representations and warranties set forth in Section 2.15.

Section 6.04 Procedure for Indemnification with Respect to Direct Claims. A Person that may be entitled to be indemnified under this Agreement (the “Indemnified Party”) will promptly notify the party or parties liable for such indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing of any claim in respect of which indemnity may be sought under this Article VI (excluding claims resulting from a Third Party Claim, which shall be governed by the provisions of Section 6.05), including in such notice a brief description of the facts upon which such claim is based and, if available or if able to be reasonably estimated, the estimated amount of the indemnifiable Losses thereof; provided, however, that failure to

give such notice shall not affect the Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification hereunder except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure. The Indemnifying Party shall have twenty (20) Business Days after receipt of the notice of claim to (a) agree in writing to pay the amount set forth in the notice of claim or (b) provide the Indemnified Party with written notice that it disputes the claim for indemnification. In the event that the Indemnifying Party contests the assertion of a claim by giving such written notice to the Indemnified Party within such period or fails to agree in writing to pay the amount set forth in the notice of claim, then the parties shall negotiate in good faith in an attempt to reach an expeditious resolution of the matter prior to pursuing further action.

Section 6.05 Procedure for Indemnification with Respect to Third Party Claims.

(a) If an Indemnified Party determines to seek indemnification under this Article VI with respect to a claim resulting from the assertion of liability by third parties (a “Third Party Claim”), such Indemnified Party shall promptly give written notice to the Indemnifying Party of such Third Party Claim and the facts upon which any such Third Party Claim is based, which notice shall set forth such information with respect thereto as is then reasonably available to such Indemnified Party (together with a copy of all complaints, pleadings, communications, or other written notices provided by the third party in such Third Party Claim, subject to the attorney-client privilege); provided that failure to give such notice shall not affect the Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification hereunder except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure. The Indemnifying Party will be entitled to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim at its own expense with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, if such Indemnifying Party so elects by written notice delivered to the Indemnified Party within twenty (20) Business Days after receiving the Indemnified Party’s notice of such Third Party Claim. In any case where the Indemnifying Party has assumed the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate (at the Indemnified Party’s expense unless the Third Party Claim asserts criminal liability against the Indemnified Party) in the defense, compromise, or settlement of such Third Party Claim, and the Indemnifying Party shall not, without the Indemnified Party’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), settle or compromise such Third Party Claim or consent to entry of any judgment, injunction or order in respect thereof. The parties hereto shall make available to each other all relevant information in their possession material to any Third Party Claim, subject to the attorney-client privilege, the attorney work product doctrine, and all other applicable legal and professional privileges.

(b) In the event that the Indemnifying Party, within twenty (20) Business Days after receipt of the aforesaid notice of a Third Party Claim, fails to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to undertake the defense, compromise or settlement of such Third Party Claim (and the reasonable fees and expenses of such defense, and all other Losses incurred by the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third Party Claim, shall be Losses subject to indemnification by the Indemnifying Party hereunder after application of all applicable limitations set forth in this Article VI). The Indemnified Party shall not compromise or settle any such Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, unless such settlement will not involve any liability or other obligation on the part of the Indemnifying Party.

Section 6.06 Satisfaction of Indemnification Claims.

(a) In the event of any obligation of Seller to indemnify Buyer Indemnified Parties, not later than five (5) Business Days after the resolution of such indemnification claim, Buyer and Seller shall issue joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent to release the amount of such indemnification claim to Buyer from

(i) the Indemnity Escrow Account in the case of any claim pursuant to Section 6.02(a)(i), Section 6.02(a)(ii) or Section 6.02(a)(iii), or
