     This AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER (the “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of January 24, 2008, by and among (i) Insight Enterprises, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Buyer”), (ii) Insight Networking Services, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Acquisition Sub”), and (iii) Calence, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Company”).

Recitals

A. The form, terms and provisions of this Agreement, pursuant to which, among other things, Acquisition Sub will merge (the “Merger”) with and into the Company with the Company surviving the Merger, have been approved by the Board of Directors of Buyer, by the Manager of Acquisition Sub, and by the Board of Managers of the Company.

B. The Board of Directors of the Class A Member of the Company has approved the Merger in accordance with the Second Amended and Restated Operating Agreement of the Company (the “Company Operating Agreement”).

C. Certain shareholders of the Class A Member of the Company (whose shares in the aggregate constitute a majority of the outstanding voting power of the Class A Member) have agreed to vote in favor of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

D. Certain capitalized terms used in this Agreement are defined in Article X. Unless the context requires otherwise, the term “Parties” as used in this Agreement refers to the parties listed in the Preamble.

Agreement

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the mutual covenants contained herein, the parties agree as follows:

ARTICLE I — THE MERGER

     1.1. The Merger. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, and in accordance with the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act (the “LLC Law”), Acquisition Sub shall be merged with and into the Company at the Effective Time. Following the Effective Time, the separate existence of Acquisition Sub shall cease and the Company shall continue as the surviving company (the “Surviving Company”) and shall succeed to and assume all the rights and obligations of Acquisition Sub in accordance with the LLC Law.

     1.2. Closing. Unless this Agreement is earlier terminated under Section 7.1, and subject to satisfaction or, to the extent permitted by law, waiver of the conditions stated in Article V of this Agreement, the closing of the Merger (the “Closing”) shall be held at 10:00 a.m., Phoenix time, on March 1, 2008, or, if the conditions set forth in Article V have not been satisfied or, to the extent permitted by law, waived on such date, on April 1, 2008 or, if the conditions set forth in Article V have not been satisfied or, to the extent permitted by law, waived on such date, on such later date occurring on the fifth Business Day after all such conditions shall have been satisfied or, to the extent permitted by law, waived, at the offices of Greenberg Traurig, LLP, at 2375 East Camelback Road, Suite 700, Phoenix, Arizona 85016, or at any other location or on any other date mutually agreed upon by Buyer and the Company. The date upon which the Closing occurs is hereinafter referred to as the “Closing Date.”

     1.3. Effective Time. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, as soon as practicable on the Closing Date, the applicable Parties shall file a certificate of merger (the “Certificate of Merger”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. The Merger shall become effective at such time as the Certificate of Merger is filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, or at such other time as Acquisition Sub and the Company shall agree and specify in the Certificate of Merger (the time the Merger becomes effective being referred to herein as the “Effective Time”).

     1.4. Effects of the Merger. The Merger shall have the effects set forth in the LLC Law.

     1.5. Certificate of Formation and Limited Liability Company Agreement.

          (a) The Certificate of Formation of Acquisition Sub as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the certificate of formation of the Surviving Company until thereafter changed or amended as provided therein or by applicable law; provided that Article I thereof shall be amended to provide that the name of the Surviving Company is “Calence, LLC.”

          (b) The limited liability company agreement of Acquisition Sub as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the limited liability company agreement of the Surviving Company until thereafter changed or amended as provided therein or by applicable law.

     1.6. Manager. The manager of Acquisition Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the manager of the Surviving Company until the earlier of its resignation or removal or until its respective successor is duly elected and qualified, as the case may be.

     1.7. Officers. The officers of Acquisition Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time and such other persons, if any, as Buyer shall designate shall be the officers of the Surviving Company until the earlier of their resignation or removal or until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified, as the case may be.

     1.8. Effect on Company Interests. By virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Buyer, the Company or Acquisition Sub:

          (a) As of the Effective Time, the entire outstanding membership interests of Acquisition Sub shall be converted into and become the entire outstanding membership interests of the Surviving Company;

          (b) As of the Effective Time, each membership interest in the Company issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be cancelled and extinguished and shall be automatically converted into the right to receive an amount equal to (i) a Basic Fractional Interest of the Member Cash Payment, without interest, (ii) a Basic Fractional Interest in the Escrow Fund, and (iii) a Basic Fractional Interest of the Earn-Out Payments, if any (items (i), (ii), and (iii) collectively constitute the “Merger Consideration”). Schedule 2.3 attached hereto sets forth each of the Members and the number of membership interests held by each such Member; and

          (c) All outstanding and unexpired options granted under the Company’s Class C Unit Option Plan (regardless of whether or not such options have vested) (the “Options”), shall be cancelled immediately prior to the Effective Time and each holder of a cancelled Option (an “Option Holder”) shall be entitled to receive, in consideration for the cancellation of such Option, an amount in cash (the “Option Cash Payment”) equal to the product of (i) the number of Units previously subject to such Option and (ii) the excess, if any, of a Fully Diluted Fractional Interest of the Aggregate Proceeds over the exercise price per Unit previously subject to such Option (such payment to be net of any required tax withholdings and other amounts required by law to be withheld with respect to such Option), payable

to such holder as soon as administratively feasible following the Closing in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 1.9 hereof, without interest thereon. If the exercise price of any Option equals or exceeds a Fully Diluted Fractional Interest of the Aggregate Proceeds, the Option Cash Payment therefor shall be zero.

     1.9. Payment of Merger Consideration.

          (a) Paying Agent. The Company shall designate a bank or trust company reasonably acceptable to Buyer to act as paying agent in the Merger (the “Paying Agent”), pursuant to an agreement containing terms and provisions reasonably acceptable to Buyer that requires the Paying Agent to comply with the procedures set forth in this Section 1.9, and on the Closing Date, Buyer shall make available, or cause the Surviving Company to make available, to the Paying Agent funds in amounts necessary for the payment of the aggregate Member Cash Payment and the aggregate Option Cash Payment.

          (b) Letter of Transmittal. As of or promptly after the Effective Time, the Paying Agent will mail to each holder of record of a certificate representing membership interests in the Company (each, a “Certificate”) at the Effective Time as reflected on the Closing Date Capitalization Schedule (i) a letter of transmittal in customary form specifying that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon proper delivery of the Certificates to the Paying Agent and which letter shall be in such form and have such other provisions as Buyer shall reasonably specify (including, without limitation, provisions for the delivery of certificates of non-foreign status and representations and warranties regarding title and ownership), and (ii) instructions for surrendering the Certificates. As of or promptly after the Effective Time, the Paying Agent will mail (to the extent not previously received from an Option Holder) to each Option Holder as reflected on the Option Schedule a letter of transmittal in such form and with such provisions as Buyer shall reasonably specify (including, without limitation, waivers regarding rights under the Company’s Class C Unit Option Plan and Options issued thereunder).

          (c) Surrender of Certificates. Upon surrender of a Certificate for cancellation to the Paying Agent by the holder of record of such Certificate and delivery of a duly executed letter of transmittal and any other documents reasonably required by the Paying Agent by the record holder of such Certificate or an Option Holder (including, if applicable, duly executed certificates of non-foreign status), the holder of such Certificate and such Option Holder shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor the Member Cash Payment or the Option Cash Payment, as applicable, evidenced by such Certificate or letter of transmittal less any required withholding of Taxes in accordance with Section 1.14. Any Certificates so surrendered shall be cancelled immediately. No interest shall accrue or be paid on any amount payable upon surrender of the Certificates by holders of record of such Certificates or delivery of a letter of transmittal by the Option Holders.

          (d) Unregistered Transferees. If any part of the Merger Consideration is to be paid to a Person other than the Person in whose name the surrendered Certificate is registered, then such part of the Merger Consideration may be paid or otherwise delivered to such a transferee so long as (i) the surrendered Certificate is accompanied by all documents reasonably required to evidence and effect such transfer and (ii) the Person requesting such payment (A) pays any applicable transfer Taxes or (B) establishes to the reasonable satisfaction of the Paying Agent that such Taxes have already been paid or are not applicable.

          (e) No Other Rights. Until surrendered in accordance with this Section 1.9, each Certificate shall be deemed, except as provided in this Agreement or by applicable Law, from and after the Effective Time, to represent for all purposes solely the right to receive the applicable Merger Consideration in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Payment of the Merger Consideration

upon the surrender of any Certificate shall be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to that Certificate and the membership interests formerly evidenced by it.

          (f) Lost Certificates. If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by Buyer, the posting by such Person of a bond or surety in such reasonable and customary form and amount as Buyer may direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate, the Paying Agent shall deliver in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the applicable Merger Consideration with respect thereto.

     1.10. Purchase Price and Deliveries at Closing.

          (a) In the Merger, Buyer will pay an aggregate purchase price (the “Purchase Price”) equal to $125,000,000, as adjusted upward or downward pursuant to Section 1.10(b), which shall be paid to the Members and Option Holders in the manner provided by this Article I. The Purchase Price shall be subject to further adjustment following the Closing pursuant to Section 1.11.

          (b) Not more than five Business Days nor less than two Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall deliver to Buyer a schedule (the “Estimated Adjustment Schedule”) setting forth the Company’s calculation of its good faith estimate of the Working Capital Assets less the Working Capital Liabilities as of the Closing Date (the “Estimated Closing Date Working Capital Amount”) based on the most recently available unaudited month-end consolidated balance sheet of the Company regularly prepared by the Company in accordance with GAAP. If the Estimated Closing Date Working Capital Amount set forth on the Estimated Adjustment Schedule (i) exceeds Base Net Working Capital, the Purchase Price shall be increased by an amount equal to such surplus, provided, however, that the maximum amount the Purchase Price shall be increased under this clause (i) is $10,000,000 or (ii) is less than Base Net Working Capital, the Purchase Price shall be decreased by an amount equal to such deficiency (such upward or downward adjustment pursuant to this Section 1.10(b) is hereinafter referred to as the “Estimated Adjustment Amount Due”).

          (c) On the Closing Date, Buyer will deliver the following:

          (i) to the Paying Agent by wire transfer of immediately available funds, (1) an amount (the “Member Cash Payment”) equal to the excess of (A) the Purchase Price over (B) the sum of (x) the Escrow Amount (as defined below) and (y) the aggregate Option Cash Payment for distribution to the Members and (2) the aggregate Option Cash Payment for distribution to the Option Holders, in each case in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 1.9 and pursuant to the allocations set forth in the Closing Date Capitalization Schedule and Option Schedule, as applicable; and

          (ii) to the Escrow Agent by wire transfer of immediately available funds an amount (the “Escrow Amount”), equal to the sum of:

               (A) an amount equal to the product of (I) the Purchase Price plus $25,000,000 multiplied by (II) 0.07, which shall constitute the General Indemnification Escrow (as such term is defined in the Escrow Agreement); plus

               (B) an amount equal to the greater of (I) the product of (a) the Purchase Price plus $25,000,000 multiplied by (b) 0.0333, or (II) the Estimated Adjustment Amount Due (but only if such amount would result in an upward adjustment to the Purchase Price), which shall constitute the Post-Closing Adjustment Escrow (as such term is defined in the Escrow Agreement); plus

               (C) $945,000, which shall constitute the Change of Control Escrow (as such term is defined in the Escrow Agreement); plus

               (D) $2,000,000, which shall constitute the Special Indemnity Escrow (as such term is defined in the Escrow Agreement).

          (d) The Escrow Amount shall be distributed as contemplated in the Escrow Agreement. The Escrow Amount shall be held by Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as escrow agent (the “Escrow Agent”). The General Indemnification Escrow, including all distributions thereon and proceeds thereof, will secure the indemnification obligations under Section 8.1(a), the Post-Closing Adjustment Escrow, including all distributions thereon and proceeds thereof, will secure any potential adjustments due to Buyer under Section 1.11, and the Special Indemnity Escrow, including all distributions thereon and proceeds thereof, will secure the indemnification obligations under Section 4(d) of the Support Agreement. In the event that Buyer incurs any Losses (under and as defined in the Support Agreement), the parties shall instruct the Escrow Agent to promptly disburse from the Special Indemnity Escrow in accordance with the Escrow Agreement to Buyer an amount equal to the amount of such Losses without regard to the limitations set forth in Section 8.2(b). Any remaining amounts in the Special Indemnity Escrow shall be released on April 30, 2009. The Escrow Amount will be held and disbursed as provided in the Escrow Agreement. The parties will promptly give any necessary instructions to the Escrow Agent to carry out the purposes of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement.

     1.11. Post-Closing Adjustment.

          (a) As soon as practicable, but in no event later than 60 days after the Closing Date, Buyer shall deliver to Member Agent a consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of the Closing Date (the “Closing Date Balance Sheet”). Such balance sheet shall be accompanied by a schedule (the “Buyer Adjustment Schedule”) setting forth Buyer’s calculation of (i) the Working Capital Assets and the Working Capital Liabilities, in each case as of the Closing Date (the “Proposed Closing Date Working Capital Amount”), and (ii) the amount by which the Purchase Price should be adjusted (A) upward to the extent that the Proposed Closing Date Working Capital Amount is greater than the Estimated Closing Date Working Capital Amount, and (B) downward to the extent that the Proposed Closing Date Working Capital Amount is less than the Estimated Closing Date Working Capital Amount (such proposed upward or downward adjustment is hereinafter referred to as the “Proposed Final Adjustment Amount Due”). For the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of computing the Final Closing Date Working Capital Amount and the Final Adjustment Amount Due, no cap or limitation on the upward or downward adjustment, if any, to the Purchase Price in respect of the Proposed Final Adjustment Amount Due, shall apply.

          (b) After receipt of the Buyer Adjustment Schedule, Member Agent may request, and Buyer will provide to Member Agent and its accountants and other representatives, upon reasonable notice, reasonable access during normal business hours to, or copies of, as Member Agent or such accountants and other representatives shall reasonably request, the information (including the books and records of the Surviving Company), data and work papers used in connection with the preparation of the Buyer Adjustment Schedule and to calculate the Proposed Final Adjustment Amount Due, and will make its and the Surviving Company’s personnel and accountants reasonably available to Member Agent and its accountants and other representatives to discuss any such information, data or work papers. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, during the Dispute Period (as defined below), Buyer agrees to make available to Member Agent the services of the Chief Financial Officer and Controller of the Company as of the Effective Time (to the extent such persons are employees of the Surviving Company or Buyer during the Dispute Period) as requested by Member Agent to assist Member Agent with its evaluation and review of the Closing Date Balance Sheet and Buyer Adjustment Schedule; provided, however, that neither the Chief Financial Officer nor the Controller shall be required to devote more than

50% of his working hours each week to assisting Member Agent with its evaluation and review of the Closing Date Balance Sheet and the Buyer Adjustment Schedule. Buyer agrees that such persons shall not in any way be deemed to have breached any fiduciary duty, duty of loyalty, or other duty owed to Buyer or the Surviving Company by so assisting Member Agent, and shall not have any liability to Buyer or the Surviving Company with respect to such assistance.

          (c) Member Agent shall have 30 days from the date that Member Agent receives the deliveries contemplated in Section 1.11(a) (the “Dispute Period”) to notify Buyer, in writing, as to whether Member Agent (i) agrees with the Buyer Adjustment Schedule and the Proposed Final Adjustment Amount Due (an “Approval Notice”) or (ii) disagrees with such calculations, identifying with reasonable detail the items with which Member Agent disagrees (a “Dispute Notice”).

          (d) If Member Agent fails to deliver a Dispute Notice to Buyer during the Dispute Period, the Buyer Adjustment Schedule and the Proposed Final Adjustment Amount Due shall be deemed to be final and correct and shall be binding upon each of the parties hereto.

          (e) If Member Agent delivers a Dispute Notice to Buyer during the Dispute Period, Buyer and Member Agent shall, for a period of 20 days from the date the Dispute Notice is delivered to Buyer (the “Resolution Period”), use their respective good faith efforts to amicably resolve the items in dispute. Any items so resolved by them shall be deemed to be final and correct as so resolved and shall be binding upon each of the parties hereto.

          (f) If Buyer and Member Agent are unable to resolve all of the items in dispute during the Resolution Period, then either Member Agent or Buyer may refer the items remaining in dispute (the “Remaining Disputes”) to Deloitte & Touche LLP, 2901 N. Central Avenue, Suite 1200, Phoenix, AZ 85012 (the “Independent Accountants”). Such referral shall be made in writing to the Independent Accountants, copies of which shall concurrently be delivered to the non-referring party hereto. The referring party shall furnish the Independent Accountants, at the time of such referral, with copies of the deliveries contemplated in Section 1.11(a) and the Dispute Notice. The parties shall also furnish the Independent Accountants with such other information and documents as the Independent Accountants may reasonably request in order for them to resolve the Remaining Disputes. The parties hereto shall also, within ten days of the date the Remaining Disputes are referred to the Independent Accountants, provide the Independent Accountants with a written notice (a “Position Statement”) describing in reasonable detail their respective positions on the Remaining Disputes (copies of which shall concurrently be delivered to the other party hereto). If any party fails to timely deliver its Position Statement to the Independent Accountants, the Independent Accountants shall resolve the Remaining Disputes solely upon the basis of the information otherwise provided to them. The Independent Accountants shall resolve all Remaining Disputes in a written determination to be delivered to each of the parties hereto within 30 days after such matter is referred to them. The decision of the Independent Accountants as to the Remaining Disputes shall be final and binding upon the parties hereto (except to correct manifest clerical or mathematical errors) and shall not be subject to judicial review. The fees and disbursements of the Independent Accountants shall be apportioned between Buyer and the Company based on the total dollar value of disputed exceptions resolved in favor of each such party, with each such party bearing such percentage of the fees and disbursements of the Independent Accountants as the aggregate disputed exceptions resolved against that party bears to the total dollar value of all disputed exceptions considered by the Independent Accountants.

          (g) Within five Business Days following the date on which the Final Adjustment Amount Due is finally determined pursuant to this Agreement (whether through failure of Member Agent to timely deliver a Dispute Notice, agreement of the parties, or final determination of any Remaining Disputes by the Independent Accountants):

          (i) if the Final Adjustment Amount Due results in an upward adjustment to the Purchase Price, (x) Buyer shall deliver to (a) the Paying Agent by wire transfer of immediately available funds, an amount equal to the product of (i) the Final Adjustment Amount Due multiplied by (ii) 0.93 for distribution to the Members in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 1.9(b) and pursuant to the allocations set forth in the Closing Date Capitalization Schedule and (b) the Escrow Agent by wire transfer of immediately available funds, an amount equal to the product of (x) the Final Adjustment Amount Due multiplied by (y) 0.07, which shall be added to the General Indemnification Escrow, and (y) the parties shall instruct the Escrow Agent to promptly disburse the Post-Closing Adjustment Escrow in accordance with the Escrow Agreement to the Paying Agent for distribution to the Members in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 1.9(b).

          (ii) if the Final Adjustment Amount Due results in a downward adjustment to the Purchase Price, the parties shall instruct the Escrow Agent to promptly disburse from the Post-Closing Adjustment Escrow in accordance with the Escrow Agreement (x) to Buyer, an amount equal to the Final Adjustment Amount Due and (y) to the Paying Agent for distribution to the Members in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 1.9(b), the remaining amounts (if any) of the Post-Closing Adjustment Escrow.

          (h) For purposes of this Section 1.11, the following defined terms have the following meanings:

          (i) “Final Adjustment Amount Due” shall mean, as finally determined in accordance with this Section 1.11, the amount by which the Purchase Price shall be adjusted (A) upward to the extent that the Final Closing Date Working Capital Amount is greater than the Estimated Closing Date Working Capital Amount and (B) downward to the extent that the Final Closing Date Working Capital Amount is less than the Estimated Closing Date Working Capital Amount.

          (ii) “Final Closing Date Working Capital Amount” shall mean, as finally determined in accordance with this Section 1.11, the amount of the Working Capital Assets less the Working Capital Liabilities, in each case as of the Closing Date.

     1.12. Earn-Out Payments.

          (a) Buyer shall make additional payments to the Members (collectively, the “Earn-Out Payments”) based on the Pro Rata Portion of the Company owned by each Member immediately prior to the Effective Time equal to the sum of:

          (i) for each of the first four 12-month periods following the end of the quarter in which the Closing occurs (each, an “Earn-Out Period”), an amount equal to the product of (A) the E-Rate Gross Profit attributable to such Earn-Out Period (not to exceed $12,500,000 for all Earn-Out Periods), multiplied by (B) two; provided, however, that in no event shall payments under this clause (i) exceed in the aggregate $25,000,000; plus

          (ii) in the event that the E-Rate Gross Profit for the first two Earn-Out Periods, in the aggregate, exceeds $18,000,000, an amount equal to the product of (A) the E-Rate Gross Profit for the first two Earn-Out Periods in excess of $18,000,000, multiplied by (B) two; provided, however, that in no event shall payments under this clause (ii) exceed in the aggregate $10,000,000; plus

          (iii) accrued interest on the amounts payable pursuant to the foregoing clause (i) at the rate of 5% per annum, compounded monthly; provided, that the accrued interest shall be calculated on such amounts from the Closing Date through the estimated date of the applicable Earn-Out Payments. For purposes of clarity, if no Earn-Out Payments are due, no accrued interest amounts are payable.

For the avoidance of doubt, in no event will the aggregate Earn-Out Payments under clauses (i) and (ii) immediately preceding exceed in the aggregate $35,000,000 plus accrued interest computed in accordance with clause (iii) immediately preceding. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, at any time during any Earn-Out Period, any of the events specified on Schedule 1.12(a) attached hereto (each an “Earn-Out Termination Event”) occurs:

     (1) the Earn-Out Periods hereunder shall cease for periods beginning as of the first day of the calendar quarter in which such Earn-Out Termination Event occurred (the “Earn-Out End Date”), and

     (2) the aggregate Earn-Out Payments that Members are entitled to receive under clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 1.12(a) for the period commencing on the first day of the first Earn-Out Period and ending on the Earn-Out End Date (the “Earn-Out Termination Period”) shall be equal to the sum of:

     (x) the E-Rate Gross Profit attributable to the Earn-Out Termination Period not to exceed $12,500,000, plus

     (y) the Earn-Out Gross Profit attributable to the first two Earn-Out Periods or the Earn-Out Termination Period, whichever is shorter, in excess of $18,000,000; provided, however, that the amount under this clause (y) shall not exceed $10,000,000, plus

     (z) accrued interest on the amounts payable pursuant to the foregoing clause (x) at the rate of 5% per annum, compounded monthly; provided, that the accrued interest shall be calculated on such amounts from the Closing Date through the estimated date of the applicable payments. For purposes of clarity, if no payments are due, no accrued interest amounts are payable.

For the avoidance of doubt, in no event will the aggregate Earn-Out Payments under clause (2) immediately preceding exceed $22,500,000 plus accrued interest computed in accordance with clause (z) immediately preceding. If the amount computed under clause (2) immediately preceding is less than the amount of Earn-Out Payments actually made by Buyer prior to the occurrence of the Earn-Out Termination Event (the “Earn-Out Overpayment Amount”), the Members shall promptly (and in any event within three Business Days following the Earn-Out Termination Event) pay to Buyer the Earn-Out Overpayment Amount.

          (b) No later than 45 days after the end of each Earn-Out Period, Buyer shall deliver to Member Agent a statement prepared at the direction of the Surviving Company’s Chief Financial Officer setting forth its good faith calculation of the E-Rate Gross Profit (the “Gross Profit Statement”) and the proposed Earn-Out Payment (the “Proposed Earn-Out Payment”) for that fiscal year.

          (c) After receipt of the Gross Profit Statement and the Proposed Earn-Out Payment, Member Agent may request, and Buyer will provide to Member Agent and its accountants and other representatives, upon reasonable notice, reasonable access during normal business hours to, or copies of, as Member Agent or such accountants and other representatives shall reasonably request, the information (including the books and records of the Surviving Company), data, and work papers used in connection with the preparation of the Gross Profit Statement and to calculate the Proposed Earn-Out Payment, and

will make its and the Surviving Company’s personnel and accountants reasonably available to Member Agent and its accountants and other representatives to discuss any such information, data, or work papers.

          (d) Member Agent shall have 30 days from the date that Member Agent receives the Gross Profit Statement (the “Earn-Out Dispute Period”) to notify Buyer, in writing, as to whether Member Agent (i) agrees with the Gross Profit Statement and the Proposed Earn-Out Payment or (ii) disagrees with such calculations, identifying with reasonable detail the items with which Member Agent disagrees (an “Earn-Out Dispute Notice”).

          (e) If Member Agent fails to deliver an Earn-Out Dispute Notice to Buyer during the Earn-Out Dispute Period, the Gross Profit Statement and the Proposed Earn-Out Payment shall be deemed to be final and correct and shall be binding upon each of the parties hereto.

          (f) If Member Agent delivers an Earn-Out Dispute Notice to Buyer during the Earn-Out Dispute Period, Buyer and Member Agent shall, for a period of 20 days from the date the Earn-Out Dispute Notice is delivered to Buyer (the “Earn-Out Resolution Period”), use their respective good faith efforts to amicably resolve the items in dispute. Any items so resolved by them shall be deemed to be final and correct as so resolved and shall be binding upon each of the parties hereto.

          (g) If Buyer and Member Agent are unable to resolve all of the items in dispute during the Earn-Out Resolution Period, then either Member Agent or Buyer may refer the items remaining in dispute (the “Remaining Earn-Out Disputes”) to the Independent Accountants. Such referral shall be made in writing to the Independent Accountants, copies of which shall concurrently be delivered to the non-referring party hereto. The referring party shall furnish the Independent Accountants, at the time of such referral, with copies of the Gross Profit Statement, the Proposed Earn-Out Payment, and the Earn-Out Dispute Notice. The parties shall also furnish the Independent Accountants with such other information and documents as the Independent Accountants may reasonably request in order for them to resolve the Remaining Earn-Out Disputes. The parties hereto shall also, within ten days of the date the Remaining Earn-Out Disputes are referred to the Independent Accountants, provide the Independent Accountants with a written notice (an “Earn-Out Position Statement”) describing in reasonable detail their respective positions on the Remaining Earn-Out Disputes (copies of which shall concurrently be delivered to the other party hereto). If any party fails to timely deliver its Earn-Out Position Statement to the Independent Accountants, the Independent Accountants shall resolve the Remaining Earn-Out Disputes solely upon the basis of the information otherwise provided to them. The Independent Accountants shall resolve all Remaining Earn-Out Disputes in a written determination to be delivered to each of the parties hereto within 30 days after such matter is referred to them. The decision of the Independent Accountants as to the Remaining Earn-Out Disputes shall be final and binding upon the parties hereto (except to correct manifest clerical or mathematical errors) and shall not be subject to judicial review. The fees and disbursements of the Independent Accountants shall be apportioned between Buyer and the Members based on the total dollar value of disputed exceptions resolved in favor of each such party, with each such party bearing such percentage of the fees and disbursements of the Independent Accountants as the aggregate disputed exceptions resolved against that party bears to the total dollar value of all disputed exceptions considered by the Independent Accountants.

          (h) During the period from the Effective Time until the end of the fourth Earn-Out Period, each of Buyer and the Surviving Company will (i) operate the E-Rate Business in the Ordinary Course of Business, including, without limitation, allocation of resources among the E-Rate Business and the non-E-Rate Business of the Surviving Company and the maintenance of the Surviving Company’s relationships with its E-Rate Business customers, in each case consistent in all material respects with the Company’s past practices, and (ii) refrain from removing material assets or material contracts from the business of the Surviving Company consistent in all material respects with the Company’s past practices.

In particular, Buyer shall, at or prior to the Effective Time, obtain and, if necessary, guarantee on behalf of the Surviving Company bonding sufficient to support the historical run rate of the E-Rate Business. Buyer shall refrain from intentionally taking any actions intended to reduce the E-Rate Gross Profit for the sole purpose of reducing the amount of the Earn-Out Payments.

          (i) If, prior to the end of the fourth Earn-Out Period, a majority of the membership interests of the Surviving Company or the Surviving Company’s assets are disposed of in a single transaction or series of transactions, and assuming no Earn-Out Termination Event has occurred, upon the closing of such disposition, Buyer shall pay to the Members an amount equal to (A) $25,000,000 plus accrued interest on such amount at the rate of 5% per annum, compounded monthly, plus the portion of the Earn-Out Payment described in Section 1.12(a)(ii) to which the Members are entitled, less (B) the aggregate amount of all Earn-Out Payments previously made. If, within 24 months of the beginning of the first Earn-Out Period, Michael F. Fong’s employment by the Surviving Company is terminated without “Cause” or Mr. Fong resigns for “Good Reason”, as such terms are defined in Mr. Fong’s Employment Agreement, attached hereto as Exhibit B, and assuming no Earn-Out Termination Event has occurred, upon the effective date of such termination, Buyer shall pay to the Members an amount equal to (A) $25,000,000 plus accrued interest on such amount at the rate of 5% per annum, compounded monthly, less (B) the aggregate amount of all Earn-Out Payments previously made; provided, however, that Buyer shall not be required to make such payment if (x) Mr. Fong intentionally takes any actions intended to increase the E-Rate Gross Profit for the sole purpose of increasing the amount of the Earn-Out Payments in a manner detrimental to the non-E-Rate Business of the Surviving Company and inconsistent in any material respect with the Company’s past practice and (y) Buyer provides Mr. Fong written notice specifying in reasonable detail actions taken by Mr. Fong in violation of clause (x) and Mr. Fong fails to cure such violations to the reasonable satisfaction of Buyer within 30 days following receipt of such notice. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in the proviso immediately preceding shall in any way limit the Members’ right to receive Earn-Out Payments they are otherwise entitled to under this Section 1.12.

          (j) Within three Business Days following the date on which a Proposed Earn-Out Payment is finally determined pursuant to this Agreement (whether through failure of Member Agent to timely deliver an Earn-Out Dispute Notice, agreement of the parties, or final determination of any Remaining Earn-Out Disputes by the Independent Accountants), Buyer shall pay to the Members the applicable Earn-Out Payments, if any.

     1.13. Change of Control Payments. In the event that the Company makes any payment under any Change of Control Severance Agreement listed on Schedule 1.13 attached hereto, the parties shall instruct the Escrow Agent to promptly disburse from the Change of Control Escrow in accordance with the Escrow Agreement to Buyer an amount equal to the amount set forth on such schedule corresponding to such Change of Control Severance Agreement (each such payment, a “Change of Control Payment”).

     1.14. Tax Withholding. Buyer or the Paying Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the Merger Consideration, or other payment otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement, the amounts required to be deducted and withheld under the Code, or any provision of any Federal, state, local or foreign tax law. To the extent that amounts are so deducted and withheld, such deducted and withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to such holder in respect of whom such deduction and withholding was made.

     1.15. Transfer Taxes. Each of Buyer and Members shall pay, or cause to be paid, one-half of the Transfer Taxes arising out of, in connection with, or attributable to the Merger. The Transfer Tax Payor shall (i) prepare and timely file the relevant Tax Returns required to be filed in respect of such Transfer Tax, (ii) pay the Transfer Tax shown on such Tax Return, (iii) notify the other party in writing of the Transfer Tax shown on such Tax Return and how such Transfer Tax was calculated, and (iv) such

other party shall reimburse the Transfer Tax Payor for one-half of the amount of such Transfer Tax in immediately available funds within ten Business Days of receipt of such notice. Any reimbursements due from the Members to Buyer for Transfer Taxes shall be made solely from the General Indemnification Escrow pursuant to the Escrow Agreement without regard to the limitations set forth in Section 8.2(b).

Schedule 2.6(a) attached hereto lists each of the Plans that is an “employee welfare benefit plan,” or “employee pension benefit plan” as such terms are defined in Sections 3(1) and 3(2) of ERISA (such plans being hereinafter referred to collectively as the “ERISA Plans”). Except in the Ordinary Course of Business, none of the Company nor any ERISA Affiliate has any formal plan or commitment, whether legally binding or not, to create any additional Plan or modify or change any existing Plan that would affect any current or former employee, officer, director, or consultant of the Company or any ERISA Affiliate.

          (i) Except as required by applicable Legal Requirements or as set forth on Schedule 2.6(i) attached hereto, no Plan provides benefits, including without limitation death or medical benefits (whether or not insured), with respect to current or former employees of the Company or any ERISA Affiliate after retirement or other termination of service (other than (i) coverage mandated by applicable laws, (ii) death benefits or retirement benefits under any “employee pension plan”, as that term is defined in Section 3(2) of ERISA, (iii) benefits, the full direct cost of which is borne by the current or former employee (or beneficiary thereof)).

          (k) Except as set forth on Schedule 2.6(k) attached hereto, there are no pending or, to the Knowledge of the Company, threatened claims by or on behalf of any Plan, by any employee or beneficiary under any such Plan or otherwise involving any such Plan (other than routine claims for benefits), except as would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

          (a) The Company has delivered to Buyer copies of (i) the unaudited balance sheet of the Company at October 31, 2007 (the “Most Recent Balance Sheet”) and the related statements of income, members’ equity, and cash flows with respect to the Company for the nine months then ended, and (ii) the audited balance sheet of the Company at January 31, 2007 and the related statements of income, members’ equity, and cash flows for the 12 months then ended (the “2006 Financial Statements”). The financial statements listed above present fairly in all material respects the financial condition, results of operations, changes in members’ equity, and cash flows of the Company for the periods then ended, and, except (i) for footnotes and normal year-end adjustments in the case of interim financial statements, and (ii) as set forth in Schedule 2.7(a) attached hereto, have been prepared in accordance with GAAP applied consistently throughout the periods indicated. The Company maintains internal accounting controls designed to provide reasonable assurances that (a) transactions by the Company are executed in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization and (b) transactions by the Company are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP and to maintain accountability for assets. There have been no instances of fraud that have occurred since January 31, 2007 involving the management of the Company or any other

employees of the Company who have a significant role in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

          (c) Except as otherwise set forth in Schedule 2.7(c) attached hereto, the accounts receivable reflected in the 2006 Financial Statements, in the Most Recent Balance Sheet, or in the books and records of the Company as of the Closing Date arose from bona fide transactions in the Ordinary Course of Business, and the goods and services involved have been sold, delivered, and performed to the account obligors, and no further filings with Governmental Authorities, insurers, or others are required to be made, no further goods are required to be provided, and no further services are required to be rendered in order to complete the sales and fully render the services and to entitle the Company to collect the accounts receivable in full. Except as set forth on Schedule 2.7(c), all such accounts receivable are current and the reserves for such accounts receivable have been calculated in accordance with GAAP. Reserves for accounts receivable in the Most Recent Balance Sheet and in the books and records of the Company as of the Closing Date do not include reserves for any accounts receivable that become uncollectible as a result of the Merger or actions taken by Buyer subsequent to the Closing. Except as set forth in Schedule 2.7(c), no such account has been assigned or pledged to any other Person and, except only to the extent fully reserved against as set forth in the Most Recent Balance Sheet, no defense or set-off to any such account has been asserted by the account obligor.

          (d) Except as otherwise set forth in Schedule 2.7(d) attached hereto, the Inventory as of the Closing Date shall consist of items of a quality, condition, and quantity reasonable and warranted in the present circumstances of the Company and shall be usable and saleable in the Ordinary Course of Business for the purposes for which intended. Except as otherwise set forth in Schedule 2.7(d), the Inventory is valued on the Company’s books of account in accordance with GAAP (on an average cost basis) at the lower of cost or market, and the value of obsolete materials, materials below standard quality, and slow-moving materials have been written down in accordance with GAAP.

          (e) Except as set forth on Schedule 2.7(e) attached hereto and except for Inventory disposed of in the Ordinary Course of Business since the date of the Most Recent Balance Sheet, the Company has (i) good and marketable title to all of the assets that it owns and that are reflected on the Most Recent Balance Sheet or that are acquired after the Most Recent Balance Sheet by the Company and not disposed of prior to the Closing, and (ii) valid leasehold interests or licenses (as applicable) in all leases of material tangible personal property and licenses in intangible property that it Uses and that it leases or licenses (as applicable), in each case free and clear of any Liens, other than Permitted Liens.

          (f) The Company owns or has the right to Use all of the assets necessary to continue the operations of the Company after the Closing as it has been conducted by the Company immediately prior to the date of this Agreement.

          (d) Within 30 days after the Closing Date, Buyer and the Members shall cooperate in good faith to prepare an allocation of the Purchase Price among the assets of the Company in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code. If Buyer and the Members disagree on any aspect of the allocation, Buyer and the Members agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve any such disagreement. Any allocation of the Purchase Price agreed to pursuant to this subsection shall be binding on Buyer and the Members for all Tax reporting purposes except that neither party shall be unreasonably impeded in its ability and discretion to negotiate, compromise and/or settle any Tax audit, claim, or similar proceedings.

          (e) In the event that a dispute arises between Buyer and the Members as to the computation of the amount of Taxes under this Section 6.1 or the allocation of the Purchase Price under this Section 6.1, the Parties shall attempt in good faith to resolve such dispute, and any amount so agreed upon shall be paid to the appropriate Party. If such dispute is not resolved within thirty (30) days

thereafter, the Parties shall submit the dispute to the Independent Accountants for resolution, which resolution shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the fees and expenses of the Independent Accountants in resolving the dispute shall be borne equally by the Members and Buyer. Any payment required to be made as a result of the resolution of the dispute by the Independent Accountants shall be made within ten (10) days after such resolution, together with any interest determined by the Independent Accountant to be appropriate.

ARTICLE VII — TERMINATION

     7.1. Termination. This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Effective Time:

          (a) by the mutual written consent of Buyer and the Company;

          (b) by either Buyer or the Company;

          (i) if any Restraint having any of the effects set forth in Section 5.1(b) shall have become final and non-appealable; provided that the party seeking to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 7.1(b)(i) shall have used commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the entry of and to remove such Restraint; or

          (ii) if the Merger shall not have been consummated on or prior to May 31, 2008 (the “Termination Date”); provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 7.1(b)(ii) shall not be available to any party if the failure of such party to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement, the failure to act in good faith, or the failure to use its commercially reasonable efforts to consummate the Merger has been the cause of or resulted in the failure of the Merger to be consummated on or before such date; provided, further that if either such party determines that additional time is necessary in connection with obtaining any consent, approval, permit or authorization from Governmental Authorities, including under the HSR Act or under any applicable foreign anti-trust laws, or from the NYPSC or FCC and such party reasonably believes that such consent, approval, permit, or authorization can be obtained on terms and conditions that satisfy Section 4.5(d), the Termination Date may be extended by either such party from time to time by written notice to the other party to a date not beyond July 31, 2008;

          (c) by the Company, if there has been a material breach of any representation, warranty, agreement or covenant of Buyer in this Agreement, which breach shall have not been cured within thirty Business Days after written notice thereof from the Company or which breach cannot be cured within thirty Business Days, provided that such breach shall have rendered the conditions set forth in Section 5.2 incapable of fulfillment on or before the Termination Date (as extended pursuant to Section 7.1(b)(ii), if applicable);

          (d) by Buyer, if there has been a material breach of any representation, warranty, agreement or covenant of the Company in this Agreement, which breach shall have not been cured within thirty Business Days after written notice thereof from Buyer or which breach cannot be cured within thirty Business Days, provided that such breach shall have rendered the conditions set forth in Section 5.3 incapable of fulfillment on or before the Termination Date (as extended pursuant to Section 7.1(b)(ii), if applicable); or

          (e) by Buyer upon the occurrence of any of the events described in Schedule 7.1(e) attached hereto.

     7.2. Effect of Termination. Except as otherwise provided in Section 7.3, in the event of the termination of this Agreement as provided in Section 7.1, this Agreement shall become void and there shall be no liability on the part of either party except (a) for the provisions of Section 4.1(b) (Confidentiality), Section 4.9 (Publicity), this Article VII, and Article IX (Miscellaneous), and (b) that nothing herein shall relieve either party from liability for any breach of this Agreement or any other agreement made as of the date hereof or subsequent thereto pursuant to this Agreement.

     7.3. Termination Fee. If the Company commits a willful and material breach of any representation, warranty, agreement, or covenant in this Agreement or if any party under the Support Agreement (other than Buyer) commits a willful and material breach of any representation, warranty, agreement, or covenant under the Support Agreement (it being understood and agreed that any breach under Section 8 of the Support Agreement shall be deemed willful and material), and Buyer terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.1(d) as a result of such breach, and, within 12 months following the date of such termination, the Company, Calence Holdings, Inc., Avnet, or any of their respective Affiliates enters into a transaction or series of related transactions, pursuant to which all or any such parties agree to sell, transfer, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the equity interests, business, assets or operations of the Company or any other Person that hereafter becomes a Subsidiary of the Company, then the Company agrees to pay Buyer a termination fee of $3,000,000 in cash within two Business days following the consummation of such transaction or transactions. Any payment required to be made pursuant to this Section 7.3 shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Buyer and shall bear interest at 10% per annum from the date such payment becomes due.

ARTICLE VIII — INDEMNIFICATION

     8.1. Indemnification; Remedies.

          (a) From and after the Effective Time, the Members (as constituted immediately prior to the Effective Time), solely out of the Escrow Fund, shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Buyer and its Subsidiaries, Affiliates, successors, assigns, officers, directors, stockholders, and employees from and against all Damages incurred by any of them that arise out of or result from (i) any breach of any representation or warranty contained in Article II of this Agreement, or (ii) any breach by the Company of any of its covenants in this Agreement.

          (b) From and after the Effective Time, Buyer shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Members (as constituted immediately prior to the Effective Time) and their respective Affiliates, successors, assigns, officers, directors, members, and employees from and against all Damages incurred by any of them that arise out of or result from (i) any breach of Buyer’s representations and warranties contained in Article III of this Agreement, or (ii) any breach by Buyer of any of its covenants in this Agreement. Such obligation to indemnify under this Section 8.1(b) shall terminate on the earlier of (x) the date that is three years following the Effective Time and (y) March 31, 2011, unless before such termination date Member Agent shall have delivered to Buyer a Claim Notice with respect to which any claim for indemnification set forth therein has not been finally resolved as contemplated by this Article VIII as of the expiration of such period, in which case such obligation to indemnify shall continue beyond such period but only with respect to any such unresolved claim and only until such unresolved claim is finally resolved as contemplated by this Article VIII.

     8.2. Limitation on Liability.

          (a) With respect to indemnification under Section 8.1(a), such obligation to indemnify shall terminate on the later of (i) the twelve-month anniversary of the Closing and (ii) the earlier of (w) 30 days after the completion of Buyer’s financial audit for the year ending December 31,

2008 and (x) April 30, 2009, unless before such termination date Buyer shall have delivered to Member Agent a Claim Notice with respect to which any claim for indemnification set forth therein has not been finally resolved as contemplated by this Article VIII, in which case such obligation to indemnify shall continue beyond such period but only with respect to any such unresolved claim and only until such unresolved claim is finally resolved as contemplated by this Article VIII.

          (b) There shall be no obligation to indemnify under Section 8.1(a) unless the liability for all such indemnification claims hereunder, in the aggregate, exceeds $1,500,000 (the “Basket”), and then only to the extent of such excess. Once the Basket has been reached, the Members shall not have any liability for any individual claim for indemnity arising under Section 8.1(a) of $15,000 or less. The maximum liability of the Members with respect to indemnification arising under Section 8.1(a) shall not, in the aggregate, exceed the General Indemnification Escrow.

          (c) The amount of any Damages subject to indemnification under Section 8.1 shall be calculated net of any amounts that are actually recovered by Buyer or its Affiliates under insurance policies or other collateral sources (such as contractual indemnities of any Person that are contained outside this Agreement), and Buyer hereby covenants that, to the extent related to claims for indemnification already paid pursuant to Section 8.1, neither it nor its Affiliates will release any such collateral sources from any obligations those sources may have and that Buyer and its Affiliates will use commercially reasonable efforts to pursue all such insurance claims or other collateral sources promptly and in good faith. In the event any such amounts recoverable under insurance policies or other collateral sources are not received before any claim for indemnification is paid pursuant to Section 8.1, then Buyer and its Affiliates shall use commercially reasonable efforts to pursue such insurance policies or collateral sources, and in the event it receives any recovery, the amount of such recovery shall be applied first, to reimburse Buyer and its Affiliates for their out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) expended in pursuing such recovery, and second, to refund any payments made by the Members that would not have been so paid had such recovery been obtained prior to such payment. In addition, all Damages subject to indemnification hereunder shall be calculated net of any Tax Benefits that are realized by Buyer or its Affiliates as a result thereof; provided, however, that if such reduction in Tax liability of Buyer is subsequently required to be paid to a Governmental Authority, then the Members shall make a payment to Buyer in the amount equal to the excess of (i) the amount of such payment made by Buyer to the Governmental Authority over (ii) the Subsequent Tax Benefit.

     8.3. Notice of Claim; Defense.

          (a) For purposes of this Article VIII, a party making a claim for indemnity under Section 8.1(a) or 8.1(b) is hereinafter referred to as an “Indemnified Party” and the party against whom such claim is asserted is hereinafter referred to as the “Indemnifying Party.” All claims by any Indemnified Party under Section 8.1(a) or 8.1(b) hereof shall be asserted and resolved in accordance with the following provisions. If any claim, demand, investigation, action or proceeding (a “Proceeding”) for which an Indemnifying Party would be liable to an Indemnified Party is asserted against or sought to be collected from such Indemnified Party, said Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of such Proceeding stating with reasonable specificity the circumstances of the Indemnified Party’s claim for indemnification (a “Claim Notice”); provided, however, that any failure to give such notice will not waive any rights of the Indemnified Party except to the extent the rights of the Indemnifying Party are actually and materially prejudiced or to the extent that any applicable period set forth in Section 8.2(a) has expired without such notice being given. After receipt by the Indemnifying Party of such notice, then upon reasonable notice from the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party, or upon the request of the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party may elect to retain counsel reasonably acceptable to the relevant Indemnified Parties to represent such Indemnified Parties in connection with such Proceeding and shall pay the fees, charges and disbursements of such counsel, and

shall take all actions necessary, including but not limited to the posting of such bond or other security as may be required by any Governmental Authority, so as to enable the Proceeding to be defended against or resolved without expense or other action by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Parties may participate, at their own expense and through legal counsel of their choice, in any such Proceeding, provided that (i) the Indemnifying Party may elect to control the defense of the Indemnified Parties in connection with such Proceeding and (ii) the Indemnified Parties and their counsel shall reasonably cooperate with the Indemnifying Party and its counsel in connection with such Proceeding. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Indemnifying Party elects not to retain counsel and assume control of such defense (or fails to give prompt notice of its intention to do so) or if conflicts of interests exist or arise between the Indemnifying Party and such Indemnified Party (other than with respect to the Proceeding), or different defenses are available with respect to such Proceeding, then the Indemnified Parties shall retain counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnifying Party (it being understood that counsel from any nationally recognized law firm shall be deemed reasonably acceptable) in connection with such Proceeding and assume control of the defense in connection with such Proceeding, and the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel selected by each Indemnified Party shall be reimbursed promptly by the Indemnifying Party. No compromise or settlement of such claims may be effected by the Indemnifying Party without the Indemnified Party’s prior written consent unless: (A) there is no finding or admission of any violation of any Legal Requirement; (B) the sole relief provided is monetary damages, none of which are required to be paid by the Indemnified Party; and (C) such compromise of settlement contains a full and unconditional release of the Indemnified Party. Under no circumstances will the Indemnifying Party have any liability in connection with any settlement of any Proceeding that is entered into without its prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably delayed or withheld).

          (b) From and after the delivery of a Claim Notice, at the reasonable request of the Indemnifying Party, each Indemnified Party shall grant the Indemnifying Party and its counsel, experts and representatives reasonable access, during normal business hours, to the books, records, personnel and properties of the Indemnified Party to the extent reasonably related to the Claim Notice at no cost to the Indemnifying Party (other than for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Indemnified Parties).

          (c) Pursuant to this Section 8, notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of any claim in respect of Taxes, both the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in and control any audit the resolution of which may give rise to a claim for Taxes in respect of which indemnification may be sought pursuant to Section 8.1, and the resolution of any such audit shall be subject to the approval of Buyer and Member Agent, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

     8.4. Assumption of Indemnification Obligations. In the event that the Company or Buyer or any of their respective successors or assigns (a) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and is not the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (b) transfers or conveys all or a substantial portion of its properties and assets to any Person (whether by sale, merger, operation of law or otherwise), then, and in each such case and as a condition precedent to the validity of any such action, proper provision will be made so that the successors and assigns of the Company or Buyer, as the case may be, shall fully assume the obligations thereof set forth in Sections 8.1(a) and 8.1(b), as applicable.

     8.5. Member Agent. Member Agent has been duly appointed as agent for each Member, with power to act for and on behalf of the Members with respect to the Escrow Agreement, Article VIII and Sections 1.11 and 1.12. Member Agent is authorized to (a) give and receive notices and communications, (b) authorize delivery to Buyer of monies from the Escrow Fund in satisfaction of claims made by Buyer, (c) deliver notices of objection, (d) agree to, negotiate, enter into settlements and compromises of, and

demand arbitration and comply with orders of courts and awards of arbitrators with respect to such claims, and (e) take all actions necessary or appropriate in the judgment of Member Agent to carry out his responsibilities, exercise his authority and represent the interests of the Members. Notices or communications to or from Member Agent will constitute notice to or from each of the Members.

     9.3. Governing Law. The provisions of this Agreement and the documents delivered pursuant hereto shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the state of Delaware (excluding any conflict of law rule or principle that would refer to the laws of another jurisdiction).

     9.4. Dispute Resolution. If there is a material dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement (other than with respect to the determination of Final Closing Date Working Capital Amount and the Final Adjustment Due, which shall be subject to the provisions of Section 1.11, or any dispute over the amount of any Earn-Out Payments, which shall be resolved in accordance with Section 1.12) or any Collateral Agreement, then the parties will resolve such dispute in the following manner: (i) any party may at any time deliver to the other a written dispute notice setting forth a brief description of the issue; (ii) during the 45-day period following the delivery of the written dispute notice the parties will meet and seek to resolve the disputed issue through negotiation; and (iii) if the parties are unable to resolve the disputed issue through negotiation, then within 30 days after that 45-day period (or such longer period as the parties mutually agree upon), the parties will refer the issue to final and binding arbitration in Phoenix, Arizona in accordance with the then existing rules (the “Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), and judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrators may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof; provided, however, that the law applicable to any controversy shall be the law of the state of Delaware, regardless of principles of conflicts of laws. In any arbitration pursuant to this Agreement, (a) discovery shall be allowed and governed by the Arizona Rules of Civil Procedure, and (b) the award or decision shall be rendered by a majority of the members of a Board of Arbitration consisting of three members, one of whom shall be appointed by each of the parties and the third of whom shall be the chairman of the panel and be appointed by mutual agreement of the two party-appointed arbitrators; provided, however, that, persons eligible to be selected as arbitrators shall be limited to attorneys-at-law, each of whom (x) is on the AAA’s Large, Complex Case Panel or a Center for Public Resources (“CPR”) Panel of Distinguished Neutrals, or has professional credentials comparable to those of the attorneys listed on such AAA and CPR Panels, (y) has actively practiced law (in private practice) for at least 15 years concentrating in mergers and acquisitions, and (z) has not performed (or whose law firm has not performed) any material services to any of the parties hereto (or their respective Affiliates) at any time prior to his or her appointment as an arbitrator hereunder. In the event of the failure of the two party-appointed arbitrators to agree within 60 days after the commencement of the arbitration proceeding upon the appointment of the third arbitrator, the third arbitrator shall be

appointed by the AAA in accordance with the Rules. In the event that either party shall fail to appoint an arbitrator within 30 days after the commencement of the arbitration proceedings, such arbitrator and the third arbitrator shall be appointed by the AAA in accordance with the Rules. Nothing set forth above shall be interpreted to prevent the parties from agreeing in writing to submit any dispute to a single arbitrator in lieu of a three-member Board of Arbitration. Upon the completion of the selection of the Board of Arbitration (or if the parties agree otherwise in writing, a single arbitrator), an award or decision shall be rendered within no more than 45 days. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the request by either party for preliminary or permanent injunctive relief, whether prohibitive or mandatory, shall not be subject to arbitration.

     9.5. Entire Agreement; Amendments and Waivers. This Agreement, together with all exhibits and schedules attached hereto, the Collateral Agreements and the Confidentiality Agreement constitute the entire agreement between and among the parties hereto pertaining to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings, negotiations and discussions, whether oral or written, of the parties, and there are no warranties, representations or other agreements between the parties in connection with the subject matter hereof except as set forth specifically herein or contemplated hereby. No supplement, modification or waiver of this Agreement shall be binding unless executed in writing by the party to be bound thereby. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed or shall constitute a waiver of any other provision hereof (regardless of whether similar), nor shall any such waiver constitute a continuing waiver unless otherwise expressly provided.

     9.6. Binding Effect and Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns, but neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, benefits, or obligations hereunder shall be assigned, by operation of law or otherwise, by any party hereto without the prior written consent of the other parties, except that Buyer may assign all or any portion of its rights, interests or obligations to one or more Subsidiaries of Buyer, which assignees may thereafter assign any such rights, interests or obligations to one or more Subsidiaries; provided, however, that no such assignment by Buyer or any such subsequent assignment shall relieve Buyer of any of its obligations hereunder.

     9.7. Remedies. Except as provided in Sections 7.2 and 7.3 and except in connection with the matters set forth in Section 1.12, the rights to indemnification provided for in Article VIII of this Agreement shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of any party hereto for any breach of representations, warranties or covenants, or any other matter set forth in this Agreement, provided that nothing in this Agreement shall limit any remedy of Buyer or the Company or their respective Affiliates or representatives at law or in equity for fraud.

     9.8. Exhibits and Schedules. The exhibits and Schedules referred to herein are attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference. Disclosure of a specific item in any one Schedule shall be deemed disclosure in any other Schedule applicable to that specific item to the extent its applicability to such other Schedule is reasonably apparent on its face.

     9.9. Multiple Counterparts. This Agreement 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 instrument.

     9.10. References and Construction.

          (a) Whenever required by the context, and as used in this Agreement, the singular number shall include the plural and pronouns and any variations thereof shall be deemed to refer to the masculine, feminine, neuter, singular or plural, as the identification of the Person may require. References to monetary amounts, specific named statutes and generally accepted accounting principles are intended to be and shall be construed as references to United States dollars, statutes of the United States of the stated name and GAAP, respectively, unless the context otherwise requires.

          (b) The provisions of this Agreement shall be construed according to their fair meaning and neither for nor against any party hereto irrespective of which party caused such provisions to be drafted. Each of the parties acknowledges that it has been represented by an attorney in connection with the preparation and execution of this Agreement.

     9.11. Survival. Any provision of this Agreement that contemplates performance or the existence of obligations after the Closing Date, and any and all representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement, shall not be deemed to be merged into or waived by the execution and delivery of the instruments executed at the Closing, but shall expressly survive Closing and shall be binding upon the party or parties obligated thereby in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, subject to any limitations expressly set forth in this Agreement.

     9.12. Attorneys’ Fees. In the event any suit or other legal proceeding is brought for the enforcement of any of the provisions of this Agreement, including without limitation, any proceeding brought under Section 9.4 hereof, the parties hereto agree that the prevailing party or parties shall be entitled to recover from the other party or parties upon final judgment on the merits reasonable attorneys’ fees, including attorneys’ fees for any appeal, and costs incurred in bringing such suit or proceeding.

     9.13. Non-Foreign Affidavit. At or prior to Closing, each Member shall have delivered to Buyer an affidavit in accordance with the requirements of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1445-2 in substantially the form of Exhibit F hereto (the “Non-Foreign Affidavit”) along with written authorization for Buyer to deliver such Non-Foreign Affidavit to the Internal Revenue Service; provided, however, that if a Member fails to provide the Non-Foreign Affidavit, the Merger shall nonetheless close and Buyer shall withhold from the Merger Consideration and pay over to the appropriate taxing authorities the amount required to be withheld under section 1445 of the Code as determined by Buyer.

     9.14. No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Except as set forth in Article VIII, this Agreement is not intended to confer upon any Person other than the parties any legal or equitable rights or remedies; provided, however, that it is specifically agreed that, from and after the Effective Time, Member Agent may enforce this Agreement on behalf of the Members.

     9.15. Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement that is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority to be invalid, void, or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction. If the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority declares that any term or provision hereof is invalid, void or unenforceable, the parties agree that the court making such determination shall have the power to reduce the scope, duration, area or applicability of the term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any invalid, void, or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision.
