          THIS SECURITIES PURCHASE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made as of December 15, 2010, by and between Scantron Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Buyer”) and KUE Digital International LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Seller”). Each of Buyer and Seller are sometimes referred to herein, individually, as a “Party,” and, collectively, as the “Parties.” Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein have the meanings set forth in Article X.

          WHEREAS, Seller owns all of the issued and outstanding capital stock or membership interests of (i) KUE Digital Inc., a Delaware corporation (“KUED”), (ii) KUED Sub I LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Sub I”) and (iii) KUED Sub II LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Sub II” and, together with KUED and Sub I, the “Purchased Subsidiaries”).

          WHEREAS, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, Buyer desires to acquire from Seller, and Seller desires to sell to Buyer, all of the capital stock or membership interests of the Purchased Subsidiaries, as applicable (the “Securities”), which are issued and outstanding as of the Closing Date.

          WHEREAS, concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, each of (i) Knowledge Universe Education L.P. (“KUELP”), (ii) Ignition Venture Partners III, L.P., (iii) Ignition Managing Directors Fund III, LLC and (iv) the Key Employee has delivered to Buyer a limited guarantee, dated as of the date of this Agreement and effective as of the Closing (each, “Guarantee” and collectively, the “Guarantees”).

          WHEREAS, concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, KUELP has delivered to Buyer a Restrictive Covenant Agreement dated as of the date of this Agreement and effective as of the Closing (the “Restrictive Covenant Agreement”).

          WHEREAS, concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, Buyer and the Key Employee have entered an employment agreement (the “Employment Agreement”), the effectiveness of which is conditioned upon the Closing.

          NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, representations and warranties and mutual covenants contained herein and of other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

PURCHASE AND SALE

     1.01 Purchase and Sale of Securities. At the Closing, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, Seller shall sell, assign, transfer and convey, free and clear of all Liens, to Buyer, and Buyer shall purchase and acquire from each Seller, all of the Securities held by Seller as of immediately prior to the Closing, in exchange for a payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Seller of an amount

equal to (i) the Closing Date Purchase Price, minus (ii) the Indemnification Escrow Amount, which shall be delivered to the Escrow Agent in accordance with Section 1.06.

     1.02 Delivery of Estimates; Calculation of Consideration.

          (a) On or prior to the third Business Day prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall deliver to Buyer a certificate (the “Closing Payment Certificate”), setting forth (i) Seller’s good faith estimate of the Net Working Capital Amount (the “Estimated Net Working Capital Amount”), (ii) the aggregate amount, if any, of Transaction Expenses that will be unpaid at the Closing (the “Unpaid Transaction Expenses”) and (iii) the aggregate amount, if any, of Indebtedness for Borrowed Money that will be unpaid at the Closing (the “Unpaid Indebtedness”). Seller shall consult with Buyer in connection with and with respect to the preparation of the Closing Payment Certificate and the parties will cooperate in good faith to resolve any dispute with respects to the items set forth on the Closing Payment Certificate prior to Closing.

          (b) For purposes hereof, the “Closing Date Purchase Price” means an amount equal to the sum of (i) $140,000,000 (the “Base Consideration”), minus (ii) the Expected Base Transaction Incentive Plan Amount, plus (iii) the amount, if any, by which the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount exceeds the Target Net Working Capital Amount, minus (iv) the amount, if any, by which the Target Net Working Capital Amount exceeds the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount, minus (v) without duplication, the aggregate amount, if any, of Unpaid Transaction Expenses, and minus (vi) without duplication, the aggregate amount, if any, of Unpaid Indebtedness.

          (c) The Closing Date Purchase Price will be adjusted in accordance with Section 1.04 below, and such adjusted amount, together with any Contingent Purchase Price payable pursuant to Section 1.05 below, is referred to herein as the “Purchase Price.” The Purchase Price, together with the Transaction Incentive Plan Amount, is referred to herein as the “Aggregate Consideration.”

     1.03 The Closing; Payment for Securities, Indebtedness and Transaction Expenses.

          (a) The closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Closing”) shall take place at the offices of Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP located at Four Times Square, New York, New York at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time on the second Business Day following satisfaction or waiver of all of the closing conditions set forth in Article VII (other than those to be satisfied at the Closing) or on such other date as is mutually agreeable to Buyer and Seller. The date on which the Closing shall occur is referred to herein as the “Closing Date.”

          (b) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the parties hereto shall consummate the following transactions as of the Closing:

          (i) Buyer shall deliver to Seller, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account designated by Seller, the consideration specified in Section 1.01;

          (ii) Pursuant to Section 1.01, Seller shall deliver or cause to be delivered to Buyer, (x) the certificates representing the portion of the Securities constituting the shares of capital stock of KUED to be transferred to Buyer, duly endorsed for transfer, which Securities so transferred to Buyer by Seller in the aggregate shall represent all of the outstanding equity interests of KUED, or accompanied by appropriate transfer documents and (y) the amendments to the operating agreements of Sub I and Sub II documenting the transfer of the portion of the Securities constituting all of the membership interests of Sub I and Sub II to Buyer;

          (iii) Buyer shall deliver the Indemnification Escrow Amount to the Escrow Agent in accordance with Section 1.06;

          (iv) Buyer shall deliver the Expected Base Transaction Incentive Plan Amount as follows: (a) Buyer shall deliver the Transaction Incentive Plan Indemnity Amount to the Escrow Agent in accordance with Section 1.06 and (b) Buyer shall deliver the remainder of the Expected Base Transaction Incentive Plan Amount to the Purchased Subsidiaries and their Subsidiaries in proportion to the Expected Base Transaction Incentive Plan Amount allocable to the Participants (as defined in the Transaction Incentive Plan) of each such entity under the Transaction Incentive Plan as of the Closing;

          (v) Buyer shall pay, or cause to be paid, on behalf of Seller and/or its Subsidiaries, the Unpaid Transaction Expenses by wire transfer of immediately available funds to accounts specified by Seller prior to the Closing in the Closing Payment Certificate; and

          (vi) Buyer and Seller shall make such other deliveries as are required by and in accordance with Article VII hereof.

          (c) Prior to or at Closing, Seller shall pay or cause the Purchased Subsidiaries and their Subsidiaries to pay any and all Indebtedness for Borrowed Money of the Purchased Subsidiaries and their Subsidiaries so that none of such entities will have any Indebtedness for Borrowed Money as of the Closing. All Indebtedness for Borrowed Money of the Purchased Subsidiaries and their Subsidiaries required to be discharged pursuant to this Section 1.03(c) is set forth on Schedule 1.03(c), describing the borrower, lender and any collateral securing such Indebtedness for Borrowed Money.

     1.04 Net Working Capital and Base Transaction Incentive Plan.

          (a) Determination. As promptly as practicable, but in any event within 75 days after the Closing Date, Buyer will deliver to Seller a consolidated balance sheet of the Purchased Subsidiaries as of 11:59 p.m. Pacific Time on the day immediately preceding the Closing Date, which shall be prepared in accordance with the Accounting Practices and Procedures, and a reasonably detailed statement (the “Closing Statement”) setting forth Buyer’s calculations of the Net Working Capital Amount. After delivery of the Closing Statement and until any dispute with respect thereto is finally resolved, Seller and its accountants shall be permitted reasonable access, during normal business hours and upon reasonable notice, to review

the Purchased Subsidiaries’ books and records (including the work papers of the Purchased Subsidiaries’ accountants) related to the preparation of the Closing Statement or the calculation of any amount thereon; provided, however, that such access does not (i) unreasonably disrupt the normal operations of the Business, (ii) result in the waiver of any attorney-client privilege or the disclosure of any trade secrets or (iii) violate any Law or the terms of any applicable Contract. Seller and its accountants may make inquiries of Buyer, the Purchased Subsidiaries’ and their accountants regarding questions concerning or disagreements with the Closing Statement arising in the course of their review thereof, and each of Buyer and the Purchased Subsidiaries shall, and shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause such accountants to, cooperate with and respond to such inquiries and, subject to the foregoing, to provide all information in their (or their accountants’) possession that is related to such review or the resolution of such disagreements. If Seller has any objections to the Closing Statement, it shall deliver to Buyer a statement setting forth its objections thereto (a “Purchase Price Adjustment Objections Statement”); provided, however, that the Purchase Price Adjustment Objections Statement shall include only objections based on whether (i) the amounts set forth on the Closing Statement were prepared in a manner consistent with the Accounting Practices and Procedures and (ii) there were mathematical errors in the computation of the Net Working Capital Amount. Any Purchase Price Adjustment Objections Statement shall specify those items or amounts with which Seller disagrees, together with a detailed written explanation of the reasons for disagreement with each such item or amount, and shall set forth Seller’s calculation of Closing Net Working Capital based on such objections. To the extent not set forth in the Purchase Price Adjustment Objections Statement, Seller shall be deemed to have agreed with Buyer’s calculation of all other items and amounts contained in the Closing Statement. If a Purchase Price Adjustment Objections Statement is not delivered to Buyer within 30 days after delivery of the Closing Statement, the Closing Statement shall be final, binding and non-appealable on the Parties hereto. Seller and Buyer shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any objections set forth in the Purchase Price Adjustment Objections Statement (and all such discussions related thereto shall be governed by Rule 408 of the Federal Rules of Evidence and any applicable similar state rule and evidence of such discussions shall not be admissible in any future proceedings between the Parties). If, for any reason, the Parties do not reach a final resolution within 15 days after the delivery of the Purchase Price Adjustment Objections Statement, they shall mutually engage and submit such dispute to KPMG LLP (the “Accounting Referee”) for final and binding resolution. If any dispute is submitted to the Accounting Referee, each Party will furnish to the Accounting Referee and the other Party such work papers and other documents and information relating to the disputed issues as the Accounting Referee may reasonably request and are available to that Party or its independent accountants, and each Party shall be afforded the opportunity to present the Accounting Referee material relating to the determination and to discuss the determination with the Accounting Referee. The Accounting Referee shall resolve only the matters in dispute and adjust and establish any disputed adjustment of the Closing Date Purchase Price to reflect such resolution. In the engagement letter or agreement pursuant to which Seller and Buyer mutually engage the Accounting Referee, the Accounting Referee shall be required, in reaching its final and binding determination as to each item in dispute, (i) not to assign a value to any item in dispute greater than the greatest value assigned to such item, or less than the smallest value assigned to such item, in each case, by Buyer in the Closing Statement or by Seller in the Purchase Price Adjustment Objections Statement and (ii) to base such determination upon, and

ensure that such determination is consistent with the Accounting Practices and Procedures and the definitions set forth in this Agreement. Seller and Buyer shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Accounting Referee to reach its written determination as soon as practicable and no later than 45 days after such dispute was submitted to the Accounting Referee, or as soon as practicable thereafter. The determination of the dispute by the Accounting Referee shall be final, binding and non-appealable on the Parties and such determination may be entered and enforced in any court having jurisdiction (the date of such determination, the “Final Determination Date”). The Closing Statement shall be modified if necessary to reflect such determination (the Closing Statement, as modified if necessary, the “Final Closing Statement”). The fees and expenses of the Accounting Referee shall be allocated to be paid by Buyer and/or Seller based upon the percentage which the portion of the contested amount not awarded to each Party bears to the amount actually contested by such Party, as determined by the Accounting Referee.

          (b) Adjustments.

          (i) Net Working Capital Adjustment. If the Net Working Capital Amount as finally determined pursuant to Section 1.04(a) above is greater than the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount, Buyer shall pay such excess to Seller in accordance with Section 1.04(c). If the Net Working Capital Amount as finally determined pursuant to Section 1.04(a) above is less than the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount, Seller shall pay or cause to be paid such shortfall to Buyer in accordance with Section 1.04(c).

          (ii) Base Transaction Incentive Plan Amount Adjustment. If the Expected Base Transaction Incentive Plan Amount is greater than the Actual Base Transaction Incentive Plan Amount to which employees of the Purchased Subsidiaries and their Subsidiaries become entitled and are paid in accordance with Section 4(a) of the Transaction Incentive Plan, Buyer shall pay the full amount of such excess to Seller in accordance with Section 1.04(c). For purposes of this Agreement, “Actual Base Transaction Incentive Plan Amount” means the aggregate amount actually paid by the Purchased Subsidiaries and their Subsidiaries to Participants as Initial Bonuses under (and within the meaning of) the Transaction Incentive Plan.

          (c) Adjustment Amount. Without duplication, all amounts owed pursuant to Sections 1.04(b)(i) and (ii) shall be aggregated, and the net amount (if any) owed by Buyer to Seller, on the one hand, or by Seller to Buyer, on the other hand, is referred to as the “Adjustment Amount”; it being understood and agreed that if the net effect pursuant to this Section 1.04(c) is an increase in the Closing Date Purchase Price, then Buyer shall make a cash payment to Seller of the Adjustment Amount, and if the net effect pursuant to this Section 1.04(c) is a decrease in the Closing Date Purchase Price, then Seller and Buyer shall jointly instruct the Escrow Agent to pay to Buyer from the Indemnification Escrow Amount and the Transaction Incentive Plan Indemnity Amount in the Escrow Fund (in accordance with the Escrow Agreement) an aggregate amount equal to the Adjustment Amount; provided, however that to the extent the Indemnification Escrow Amount and the Transaction Incentive Plan Indemnity Amount are together insufficient to pay the full Adjustment Amount, then an amount equal to the

excess of the Adjustment Amount over the amount paid to Buyer from the Indemnification Escrow Amount and the Transaction Incentive Plan Indemnity Amount shall be paid by Seller by wire transfer of immediately available funds. The Adjustment Amount shall be calculated as an adjustment to the Aggregate Consideration. Payment of the Adjustment Amount shall be effected by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by the recipient Party within five Business Days after the Final Determination Date.

          (d) In the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the earliest date of final resolution of the Net Working Capital Amount, Actual Base Transaction Incentive Plan Amount and Adjustment Amount pursuant to this Section 1.04, no changes made by Buyer to the accounting methodology of the Business on which the Net Working Capital Amount or Adjustment Amount is to be based, shall have an impact upon the calculation of the Net Working Capital Amount, Actual Base Transaction Incentive Plan Amount or Adjustment Amount contemplated by this Section 1.04.

     1.05 Contingent Consideration.

          (a) In addition to the Closing Date Purchase Price and the Base Transaction Incentive Plan Amount, Buyer shall pay the Contingent Consideration, if any, determined and payable in accordance with this Section 1.05. As used herein, the “Contingent Consideration” shall be an amount determined by reference to the “Billed Revenue” actually achieved for the calendar year ended December 31, 2011 (“CY2011”) and calculated as set forth in this Section 1.05, as follows:

          (i) If CY2011 Billed Revenues are less than $36.5 million, there shall be no Contingent Consideration;

          (ii) If CY2011 Billed Revenues are $49.0 million or greater, the Contingent Consideration shall be $20.0 million; and

          (iii) If CY2011 Billed Revenues are greater than $36.5 million but less than $49.0 million, then the Contingent Consideration shall be an amount equal to the product of (A) $20.0 million, multiplied by (B) a fraction, the numerator of which is (1) (x) 2011 Billed Revenues, minus (y) $36.5 million, and the denominator of which is (2) $12.5 million.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event an Acceleration Event occurs, the Contingent Consideration shall be $20,000,000.

          (b) For purposes of this Section 1.05:

          (i) “Billed Revenue” means the aggregate amounts billed to customers and clients by the Purchased Subsidiaries and their Subsidiaries or by any Affiliate of the Buyer to the extent such billings arise out of the Business, in all cases, as set forth on invoices issued in CY2011 by or on behalf of the Purchased Subsidiaries, their Subsidiaries and/or such other Persons (or any successor(s) to any of them), provided, that to the extent the Purchased Subsidiaries’ or their Subsidiaries’ products and services

arising out of the Business are bundled with other products and services of Buyer or its Affiliates and sold with any bulk or similar discount, rebate or other similar reduction in pricing (each, a “Discount”), and any portion of such Discount is allocated to products and services attributable to the Business, then for purposes of determining Contingent Consideration, such portion of any such Discount will be added back to Billed Revenue (but only to the extent such Discount is in excess of Discounts generally provided by the Business in the ordinary course of business prior to the Closing); provided, further, that no amounts set forth on Schedule 1.05(b)(i) shall be taken into account for purposes of “Billed Revenue.”

          (ii) “Related Party Transaction” means any transaction relating to the revenue generating activities of the Business between Buyer, M & F Worldwide Corp. or any of their Subsidiaries (other than the Purchased Subsidiaries and their Subsidiaries), on the one hand, and the Purchased Subsidiaries and their Subsidiaries, on the other hand; provided, that “Related Party Transaction” shall not include: (x) transactions in the ordinary course of business, including bundling products and services of the Business with products and services of Buyer or its Affiliates; and (y) transactions related to any Intellectual Property of the Purchased Subsidiaries and their Subsidiaries that is made available to Buyer or any of its Affiliates for a particular use if Buyer and/or any of its Affiliates pays to the Purchased Subsidiaries or their Subsidiaries, as applicable, a license fee or other payment consistent with then-current market terms or terms consistent with terms provided by the Purchased Subsidiaries and the Subsidiaries to unaffiliated parties for such use (and, for the avoidance of doubt, such license fee or other payment will be included in Billed Revenue for purposes of determining the Contingent Consideration).

          (c) As promptly as practicable, but in any event within 75 days following the last day of CY2011, unless an Acceleration Event has occurred, Buyer will deliver to Seller a statement (the “Contingent Consideration Statement”) setting forth Buyer’s calculation of Billed Revenue and the resulting Contingent Consideration. If Buyer or its Affiliates elect to bundle the products and services of the Purchased Subsidiaries or their Subsidiaries with the products and services of Buyer or its other Affiliates, then the Contingent Consideration Statement shall also include (x) a reasonably detailed accounting of the recalculation of Billed Revenue in accordance with Section 1.05(f)(i) below and (y) if applicable, information regarding prices charged for the products and services of the Purchased Subsidiaries or their Subsidiaries when sold without such bundling. After delivery of the Contingent Consideration Statement and until any dispute with respect thereto is finally resolved, Seller and its accountants shall be permitted reasonable access, during normal business hours and upon reasonable notice, to review the Purchased Subsidiaries’ books and records (including the work papers of the Purchased Subsidiaries’ accountants) related to the preparation of the Contingent Consideration Statement or the calculation of any amount thereon; provided, however, that such access does not (i) unreasonably disrupt the normal operations of the Business, (ii) result in the waiver of any attorney-client privilege or the disclosure of any trade secrets or (iii) violate any Law or the terms of any applicable Contract. Seller and its accountants may make inquiries of Buyer, the Purchased Subsidiaries’ and their accountants regarding questions concerning or disagreements with the Contingent Consideration Statement arising in the course of their review thereof, and each of Buyer and the Purchased Subsidiaries shall, and shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause such accountants

to, cooperate with and respond to such inquiries and, subject to the foregoing, to provide all information in their (or their accountants’) possession that is related to such review or the resolution of such disagreements. If Seller has any objections to the Contingent Consideration Statement, it shall deliver to Buyer a statement setting forth its objections thereto (a “Contingent Consideration Objections Statement”). If a Contingent Consideration Objections Statement is not delivered to Buyer within 45 days after delivery of the Contingent Consideration Statement, the Contingent Consideration Statement shall be final and binding on the Parties hereto. If a Contingent Consideration Objections Statement is timely delivered to Buyer, Seller and Buyer shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any objections set forth in the Contingent Consideration Objections Statement (and all such discussions related thereto shall be governed by Rule 408 of the Federal Rules of Evidence and any applicable similar state rule and evidence of such discussions shall not be admissible in any future proceedings between the Parties). If, for any reason, Seller and Buyer do not reach a final resolution within 15 days after the delivery of the Contingent Consideration Objections Statement then (i) to the extent that such dispute relates to the determination of accounting matters, Seller and Buyer shall mutually engage and submit such dispute to the Accounting Referee for final and binding resolution or (ii) to the extent that such dispute relates to any other matters (e.g., compliance with the provisions of Section 1.05(f) below) or if the Parties disagree as to whether the dispute relates solely to the determination of accounting matters, they shall resolve such dispute in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.11 below. If any dispute is submitted to the Accounting Referee, each Party will furnish to the Accounting Referee and the other Party such work papers and other documents and information relating to the disputed issues as the Accounting Referee may reasonably request and are available to that Party or its independent accountants, and each Party shall be afforded the opportunity to present the Accounting Referee material relating to the determination and to discuss the determination with the Accounting Referee. The Accounting Referee shall resolve matters in dispute and adjust and establish the Contingent Consideration to reflect such resolution. In the engagement letter or agreement pursuant to which Seller and Buyer mutually engage the Accounting Referee, the Accounting Referee shall be required, in reaching its final and binding determination as to each item in dispute, (i) not to assign a value to any item in dispute greater than the greatest value assigned to such item, or less than the smallest value assigned to such item, in each case, by Buyer in the Contingent Consideration Statement or by Seller in the Contingent Consideration Objections Statement and (ii) to base such determination upon, and ensure that such determination is consistent with, the Accounting Practices and Procedures and the definitions set forth in this Agreement. Seller and Buyer shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Accounting Referee to reach its written determination as soon as practicable and no later than 45 days after such dispute was submitted to the Accounting Referee, or as soon as practicable thereafter. The determination by the Accounting Referee of the disputed accounting matters submitted to the Accounting Referee shall be final, binding and non-appealable on the Parties hereto and may be entered and enforced in any court having jurisdiction. The Contingent Consideration Statement shall be modified if necessary to reflect such determination. The fees and expenses of the Accounting Referee shall be allocated to be paid by Buyer and/or Seller based upon the percentage which the portion of the contested amount not awarded to each Party bears to the amount actually contested by such Party, as determined by the Accounting Referee.

          (d) Contingent Consideration shall be paid as follows: (i) if the Contingent Consideration Statement delivered by Buyer to Seller reflects Billed Revenues resulting in the obligation to pay any Contingent Consideration, then Buyer shall pay such amount concurrently with the delivery of the Contingent Consideration Statement, (ii) without limiting clause (i), if Seller delivers a Contingent Consideration Objections Statement to Buyer and Buyer becomes obligated to pay any Contingent Consideration or an amount of Contingent Consideration that exceeds any prior payments of Contingent Consideration, then within five Business Days of each such resolution (negotiated or otherwise), Buyer shall pay such amount, or additional amount(s) and/or (iii) as soon as practicable after, but in no event later than five Business Days following, an Acceleration Event. All payments of Contingent Consideration shall be effected as follows: (i) the portion of the Contingent Consideration that represents the Contingent Transaction Incentive Plan Amount shall be delivered to the Purchased Subsidiaries, their Subsidiaries or such other Affiliates who are (or were most recently) employing or, if a different entity, responsible for administering payroll, in either case, for the Contingent Consideration Participants (in proportion to the Contingent Consideration payable to the Contingent Consideration Participants at each such entity) by wire transfer of immediately available funds, and Buyer shall cause such entities to pay all such amounts to such Contingent Consideration Participants in accordance with the terms of the Transaction Incentive Plan, promptly upon receipt by such entities, but in any event, within fifteen (15) days thereafter, and (ii) the remaining portion of the Contingent Consideration (referred to herein as the “Contingent Purchase Price”) shall be delivered to Seller by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Seller. For purposes of this Agreement, (A) the term “Contingent Transaction Incentive Plan Amount” means the portion of the Contingent Consideration determined by multiplying the Contingent Consideration by a fraction, (x) the numerator of which equals the aggregate amount of the Initial Bonuses actually paid to all Contingent Consideration Participants, and (y) the denominator of which equals (1) the Closing Date Purchase Price, plus (2) the Actual Base Transaction Incentive Plan Amount, minus (3) the Indemnification Escrow Amount, and minus (4) the Transaction Incentive Plan Indemnity Amount and (B) the term “Contingent Consideration Participant” means each Participant who remains eligible to receive a Contingent Consideration Bonus on the applicable Contingent Consideration Bonus Date (each as defined in the Transaction Incentive Plan).

          (e) In the event that at any time prior to December 31, 2011, (i) there occurs a liquidation or dissolution of the Purchased Subsidiaries other than into an Affiliate of Buyer, (ii) there occurs a sale, license or other transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Purchased Subsidiaries to a Person that is not an Affiliate of Buyer in one or a series of transactions, (iii) there occurs a merger, reorganization, consolidation or share exchange in which the outstanding equity securities of the Purchased Subsidiaries are cancelled, converted into or exchanged for a different kind of securities of the successor entity and the successor entity is not an Affiliate of Buyer, (iv) there occurs an acquisition of all or substantially all of the outstanding equity securities of the Purchased Subsidiaries by a Person that is not an Affiliate of Buyer, or (v) Buyer or any of its Affiliates breaches the terms of Sections 1.05(f)(i), 1.05(f)(ii), 1.05(f)(iii) or 1.05(f)(v) in a manner that, individually or in the aggregate, materially and adversely affects the Contingent Consideration payable (each of the events described in clauses (i)-(v) of this Section 1.05(e) is referred to herein as an “Acceleration Event”), then the maximum Contingent Consideration as specified under Section 1.05(a) shall become due and payable immediately.

          (f) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or required by Law, from the Closing through the earlier of (i) December 31, 2011 and (ii) the occurrence of an Acceleration Event upon which Buyer pays the maximum Contingent Consideration, without the consent of Seller:

          (i) Buyer shall operate the Business with distinct books and records so as to allow the determination of Billed Revenue, and to the extent the Purchased Subsidiaries’ or their Subsidiaries’ products and services are bundled with other products and services of Buyer or its other Affiliates, Buyer will maintain mechanisms to accurately track in all material respects the Billed Revenue from such bundled products and services attributable to the Business;

          (ii) Buyer shall cause the Business to be operated in a manner that complies in all material respects with applicable Law, consistent with the Purchased Subsidiaries’ and their Subsidiaries’ obligations under Contracts and in a manner that is not reasonably likely to materially and adversely affect the Business, the Purchased Subsidiaries and their Subsidiaries or their relationships with employees, suppliers or customers; provided, however, that no Acceleration Event shall be deemed to occur with respect to any such non-compliance with applicable Law if, prior to the Closing, the Business, the Purchased Subsidiaries or their Subsidiaries, was not in compliance with such applicable Law;

          (iii) None of Buyer, the Purchased Subsidiaries or any of their Affiliates shall, directly or indirectly, (A) sell, transfer or license a material portion of the assets of the Purchased Subsidiaries and their Subsidiaries in one or a series of transactions outside of the ordinary course of business, (B) liquidate, merge or consolidate the Purchased Subsidiaries or any of their Subsidiaries with or into another Person, dissolve the Purchased Subsidiaries or any of their Subsidiaries into another Person, or sell or issue any securities of the Purchased Subsidiaries or any of their Subsidiaries to any Person, except in the case of each of clauses (A) and (B), other than to or into an Affiliate of Buyer (and only for so long as such purchaser, transferee, licensee or Person remains an Affiliate of Buyer and is thereafter bound by the terms of this Section 1.05(f) to the same extent as Buyer would be) or (C) cease to operate any material portion of the Business of the Purchased Subsidiaries or their Subsidiaries;

          (iv) Neither the Purchased Subsidiaries nor any of their Subsidiaries shall, and Buyer shall not authorize the Purchased Subsidiaries or any of their Subsidiaries to, enter into any Related Party Transaction unless it is made upon fair and reasonable terms no less favorable to the Purchased Subsidiaries and their Subsidiaries than would be obtained in a comparable arm’s length transaction with an unaffiliated third party, or in the case of a license for Intellectual Property, on terms that are less advantageous to the Purchased Subsidiaries or any of their Subsidiaries than any license with respect to the same or substantially similar Intellectual Property between Buyer and any of its Affiliates; and

          (v) None of Buyer, the Purchased Subsidiaries or any of their Affiliates shall take any action with the primary intent of artificially preventing or decreasing the earning of any Contingent Consideration.

Without limiting the foregoing, if Buyer requests that Seller consent to any action, omission, waiver or modification of the foregoing, Seller shall consider the requested consent in good faith and shall grant such consent if the specific action, omission, waiver or modification, considered separately or together with all such other actions, omissions, waivers or modifications consented to by Seller, would not reasonably be expected to adversely impact the Contingent Consideration that otherwise would be achievable in the absence of such action(s), omission(s), waiver(s) and/or modification(s). For the avoidance of doubt, nothing contained in this Section 1.05(f) is intended to restrict Buyer’s right to control the Purchased Subsidiaries and their Subsidiaries in any respect, including, without limitation, the hiring or termination of employees, the incurrence of expenses and requiring compliance with Buyer’s and its Affiliates’ internal controls, corporate governance policies and procedures, legal and regulatory compliance standards and other similar matters. Accordingly, Seller acknowledges and agrees that, in the event that any of the provisions of this Section 1.05(f) shall be breached in a manner that, individually or in the aggregate, materially and adversely affects the Contingent Consideration payable, Seller’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be a claim or action to recalculate and/or appropriately adjust the Contingent Consideration payable by Buyer and/or, only in the event that any of the provisions of Sections 1.05(f)(i), 1.05(f)(ii), 1.05(f)(iii) or 1.05(f)(v) are breached in a manner that, individually or in the aggregate, materially and adversely affects the Contingent Consideration payable, to establish that such breach constitutes an Acceleration Event, and Seller shall have no right to specifically enforce compliance with the provisions of this Section 1.05(f). Without limiting the foregoing, Buyer acknowledges that its actions or omissions in respect of control of the Purchased Subsidiaries and their Subsidiaries may impact the calculation of or give rise to an adjustment of the amount of the Contingent Consideration, and may also result in an Acceleration Event. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any breach of this Section 1.05(f) shall survive until finally resolved in accordance with Section 11.11 below.

          (g) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement, none of Buyer, the Purchased Subsidiaries or any of their Affiliates (i) will owe Seller any fiduciary duty in respect of this Section 1.05 or the earning of any Contingent Consideration or (ii) will have any obligation in respect of this Section 1.05 other than an obligation to comply with (x) the covenants and agreements expressly set forth in this Section 1.05 and (y) the covenant of good faith and fair dealing implied in all contracts governed by Delaware Law, it being the Parties’ intention that any other covenants, agreements and/or obligations in respect of this Section 1.05 and the earning or payment of Contingent Consideration are expressly waived and disclaimed. In addition, the Parties acknowledge and agree that Seller’s rights and Buyer’s obligation to pay Contingent Consideration, if any, does not represent an ownership interest in Buyer or the Purchased Subsidiaries and shall not entitle Seller to any rights common to any holder of equity securities of Buyer or the Purchased Subsidiaries.

     1.06 Escrow Amounts. The “Indemnification Escrow Amount” shall be an amount equal to $6,586,790. The “Transaction Incentive Plan Indemnity Amount” shall be an amount equal to $413,210. Seller hereby authorizes and instructs Buyer, at the Closing, to deduct the

Indemnification Escrow Amount from the Base Consideration and the Transaction Incentive Plan Indemnity Amount from the Expected Base Transaction Incentive Plan Amount, and to deliver such funds to the Escrow Agent to be held in an escrow account (the “Escrow Account”), in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Escrow Agreement.

     1.07 Purchase Price Allocation; Tax Withholding.

          (a) For U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Parties shall treat the purchase and sale of all of the membership interests of Sub I and Sub II provided for herein as a purchase and sale of all of the assets of Sub I and Sub II and an assumption of all of the liabilities of Sub I and Sub II. Accordingly, the Purchase Price (plus such assumed liabilities, to the extent properly taken into account under the Code) and any other consideration payable to Seller pursuant to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Allocation Amount”) shall be allocated among the acquired capital stock of KUED and the Indian Company (the “Allocation”). Prior to the Closing, Buyer and Seller shall cooperate to obtain an appropriate certificate from an international firm of chartered accountants in India mutually agreeable to Buyer and Seller, certifying the value of the Indian Company (the “Allocation Value”) and the amount of withholding Tax to be imposed on the sale of Seller’s capital stock in the Indian Company (the “Indian Withholding Tax”). Buyer, on the one hand, and Seller, on the other hand, shall each pay one half of the fees and expense of such accountant. For purposes of the Allocation, the acquired capital stock of the Indian Company shall be allocated the Allocation Value. The excess of the Allocation Amount over the Allocation Value shall be allocated to the acquired capital stock of KUED.

          (b) If the Purchase Price is adjusted pursuant to Section 6.02(l), the amount of such adjustment shall be allocated to the acquired capital stock of KUED.

          (c) The Parties agree to (i) be bound by the Allocation, (ii) act in accordance with the Allocation for all applicable Tax purposes (including filing IRS Form 8594 with their U.S. federal income Tax Return for the taxable year that includes the Closing Date and in the course of any audit, review or litigation), and (iii) take no position and cause their Affiliates to take no position inconsistent with the Allocation for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by applicable Law or unless the other Party consents thereto, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

          (d) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Buyer and the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration payable to any Person pursuant to this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement any amounts that Buyer or the Escrow Agent may be required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code or any provision of state, local or foreign tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld by Buyer or the Escrow Agent, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to such Person. For the avoidance of doubt, Buyer shall be permitted to deduct and withhold from the consideration payable to Seller an amount equal to the Indian Withholding Tax; provided, that Buyer shall provide Seller with evidence reasonably satisfactory to Seller that such Indian Withholding Tax has been timely paid by Buyer, on behalf of Seller and in Seller’s name, to the proper Indian Tax authorities.

Without limiting the foregoing, from the date of this Agreement until the Closing, Seller shall, and shall cause each Purchased Subsidiary and its Subsidiaries to, use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all authorizations, consents and approvals of, and give all notices to be obtained or given in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents to all third parties required under the Contracts set forth on Schedule 7.01. The “commercially reasonable efforts” of Seller (prior to Closing) shall not require it to, or to cause any Purchased Subsidiary or their Subsidiaries to, pay or commit to pay any money to any third party whose authorization, consent or approval is being solicited, or otherwise make or commit to make any other accommodation to any such Person (including amendments or modifications to Contracts or other similar arrangements), except to the extent that such payment or accommodation is expressly subject to and will not take effect until the Closing, it being understood that no such payments or accommodations will be taken into account for purposes of calculating the Net Working Capital Amount, provided, that Seller shall not permit the Purchased Subsidiaries or their Subsidiaries to, and none of the Purchased Subsidiaries or their Subsidiaries shall, make any such payment or accommodation without Buyer’s prior written consent.

          (b) Buyer shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the conditions set forth in Section 7.02 to be satisfied and to consummate the transactions contemplated herein. To the extent Buyer will utilize third party financing in whole or in part to fund the purchase of the Securities, Buyer shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to arrange and consummate such financing, including, without limitation, using its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) satisfy the terms, conditions, representations and warranties set forth in the committed borrowing facilities or commitment or fee letters or other similar agreements and (ii) enter into definitive agreements with respect thereto on the terms and conditions contemplated by the aforesaid documents. Buyer shall keep Seller reasonably apprised as to the status of any such financing (or any replacement thereof) and shall promptly notify Seller if it becomes aware of any fact or circumstance that would make such financing unavailable.

          (c) In the event that any authorization, consent or approval described in Section 5.04(a) shall not be obtained after the Parties have used their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such authorization, consent or approval, each Party agrees to consult with the other and consider in good faith any reasonable requests made such other Party that are intended to minimize any adverse effect upon the Business resulting, or which would reasonably be expected to result, after the Closing Date, from the failure to obtain such authorization, consent or approval.

     5.05 Notification. From the date of this Agreement until the Closing Date, each of Buyer and Seller shall promptly notify the other Party hereto if such Person obtains knowledge

that any of the representations and warranties in this Agreement or the Disclosure Schedules are not true and correct, or if such Person obtains actual knowledge of any errors in, or omissions from, the Disclosure Schedules. No such notification shall be deemed to supplement or amend the Disclosure Schedules for the purpose of (a) determining the accuracy of any of the representations and warranties made by Seller in this Agreement, or (b) determining whether any of the conditions set forth in Section 7.01 have been satisfied. Delivery of notification pursuant to this Section 5.05 shall not limit or otherwise affect the remedies (including the remedies described in Section 6.02(a) and Article VIII) available hereunder to any Party receiving such notice (except to the extent that such disclosure may affect claims involving fraud under applicable Law), and shall not be deemed to cure any breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty of Seller made in this Agreement.

Seller shall provide Buyer with reasonable opportunity to review all materials in connection with such shareholder approval prior to the shareholder vote. Further, Seller shall provide to Buyer at the Closing evidence of such approval or that such payments or benefits as would result in the imposition of any excise taxes under Section 4999 of the Code will not be paid or provided.

(including, after the Closing Date, any Purchased Subsidiary or Subsidiary thereof) with respect to the Transaction Incentive Plan, other than any Payroll Taxes that such Person would have been required to pay with respect to each employee that participates in the Transaction Incentive Plan in connection with wages and other compensation payable to such employee in the taxable year that any payments under the Transaction Incentive Plan are made, over (B) any tax benefit realized by such Person from making such payment; (v) in the event that the amount of any Transaction Incentive Plan Tax Benefits is disallowed in whole or in part, Buyer shall recalculate the amount of such Transaction Incentive Plan Tax Benefits as reduced by such disallowance (the “Modified Benefit”) and Seller shall refund to Buyer any prior payment received, or portion thereof, necessary to settle the difference between the Modified Benefit and the amount previously paid to Seller by Buyer with respect to such Transaction Incentive Plan Tax Benefits; and (vi) Seller shall under no circumstances be permitted access to any Tax Returns, schedules, work papers, records or other documents of the M & F Worldwide Group.

          (i) Tax Refunds.

The Accounting Referee shall resolve any dispute in a manner consistent with the past practices with respect to such items unless otherwise required by Law. Buyer on the one hand and Seller on the other hand shall each pay one-half of the fees and expenses of the Accounting Referee.

          (m) Exclusivity. This Section 6.02 shall govern all matters, including Indemnification Claims, with respect to Taxes, and in the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Section 6.02 and any other provision of this Agreement, this Section 6.02 shall control.

          (n) Tax Election. Buyer shall not make an election under Section 338(g) of the Code (a “Section 338 Election”) for KUED or the Indian Company, except as otherwise provided in this Section 6.02(n).

If for any reason Buyer does not agree with Seller’s calculation of the Incremental Taxes, Buyer shall notify Seller of its disagreement within ten days of receiving a copy of such statement and such supporting documentation, and such dispute shall be resolved pursuant to Section 6.02(j). If Seller’s statement reports that there will not be any Incremental Taxes then within 30 calendar days thereafter, Buyer shall make a Section 338 Election for the Indian Company with respect to the taxable year that includes the Closing Date. If Seller’s statement reports that there will be Incremental Taxes then within 30 calendar days thereafter, Buyer may, in its discretion, make a Section 338 Election for the Indian Company with respect to the taxable year that includes the Closing Date; provided, however, that Buyer shall reimburse Seller for the Incremental Taxes if Buyer makes such election. Buyer shall pay to Seller the amount of Buyer’s reimbursement obligation, if any, pursuant to this Section 6.02(n) at the time specified in Section 8.06(a) and if Buyer makes such payment to Seller, Buyer shall have no further liability with respect to the Section 338 Election for the Indian Company.

          (o) Section 382 Study.

Such study shall be conducted by Ernst & Young under the supervision of Terrence Krupczak (or his successor as Seller’s primary Ernst & Young contact), a report of such study shall be delivered by Ernst & Young to Buyer in written form with all owners’ identifying information redacted or omitted, and a copy of such written report shall be provided to Seller reasonably promptly after the completion of such study, provided, that in the event that a Governmental Entity requires Buyer to disclose such redacted or omitted information as part of a Tax Contest, (A) Buyer shall, in its sole discretion, either (i) diligently contest the disclosure of such information in good faith or (ii) provide Seller with limited power to contest the disclosure of such information, and (B) in the event efforts to contest the disclosure of such information are unsuccessful, Seller shall provide the redacted or omitted information to the requesting Governmental Entity. Without limiting the applicability of Section 6.02(d) to this Section 6.02(o), Seller shall provide Buyer with such additional information as may be necessary for Buyer to conduct such study.

          (p) Indian Stamp Duty. Prior to the Closing, Seller (i) shall pay, or cause to be paid, to the appropriate Indian Governmental Entity the deficiency in the stamp duty owing on the lease deed dated February 18, 2008 between Ku Education India Private Limited and SKCL-CS-JV with respect to the office premises occupied by the Indian Company (the “Lease Deed”), and (ii) shall provide Buyer with evidence reasonably satisfactory to Buyer that Seller has paid, or caused to be paid, such stamp duty in full to such Indian Governmental Entity. In the event Seller has not provided evidence reasonably satisfactory to Buyer that such deficiency has been paid, Buyer shall be permitted to deduct and withhold the amount of such deficiency from the Closing Date Purchase Price.

     6.03 Employee Matters.

          (a) For the period from the Closing Date through December 31, 2011, Buyer shall provide (or cause other Affiliates of Buyer to provide), to each employee of any Purchased Subsidiary (or Subsidiary thereof) who remains employed by any such entity as of the Closing Date (together, the “Continuing Employees”), (i) base compensation or hourly wage rate, as applicable, and bonus opportunity (excluding equity based compensation) that are substantially comparable in the aggregate to the base compensation or hourly wage rate, as applicable, and bonus opportunity (excluding equity based compensation) provided to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Closing Date, and (ii) employee benefits (excluding equity based compensation) that are substantially comparable, in the aggregate, as those provided (excluding equity based compensation) to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Closing Date. For purposes of eligibility, vesting, participation and benefit accrual (other than benefit accruals for defined benefit pension purposes) under Buyers’ and its Affiliates’ plans and programs providing employee benefits to Continuing Employees after the Closing Date (the “Post-Closing Plans”), each Continuing Employee shall be credited with his or her years of service with any Purchased Subsidiary (or Subsidiary thereof) before the Closing to the same extent as such service was recognized for such purposes prior to the Closing, except to the extent such credit would result in any duplication of benefits.

          (b) Buyer shall, or shall cause its Affiliates to, use commercially reasonable efforts to cause each third party insurance provider and each third party administrator to, (i) for purposes of each Post-Closing Plan providing medical, dental, hospital, pharmaceutical or vision benefits to any Continuing Employee, cause all pre-existing condition exclusions and actively-at-work requirements of such Post-Closing Plan to be waived for such Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents (except to the extent that such exclusions or requirements applied under comparable Employee Benefit Plans), and (ii) cause any co-payments, deductible and other eligible expenses incurred by such Continuing Employee and/or his or her covered dependents during the plan year ending on the Closing Date to be credited for purposes of satisfying all deductible, coinsurance and maximum out-of-pocket requirements applicable to such Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents for the applicable plan year of each comparable Post-Closing Plan.

          (c) From and after the Closing, Buyer shall honor all paid-time-off accrued by Continuing Employees as reflected on the books and records of the Purchased Subsidiaries and their Subsidiaries as of the Closing.

          (d) From and after the Closing and until such time as all obligations thereunder have been fully and finally satisfied, Buyer shall maintain, or cause to be maintained, the Transaction Incentive Plan in existence as of the Closing Date in accordance with the terms and conditions as set forth on Exhibit B hereto (the “Transaction Incentive Plan”), and Buyer shall perform or shall cause to be performed, all obligations arising under the Transaction Incentive Plan in accordance with such terms and conditions.

          (e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6.03 or any other provision of this Agreement, Buyer may terminate or cause the termination of the employment of any Continuing Employee at any time after the Closing (subject to any economic obligations arising under any agreements with such Continuing Employees in connection with any such termination). Nothing contained in this Section 6.03 or any other provisions of this Agreement shall (i) be construed to create any third party beneficiary rights in any Person (including any Continuing Employee or any dependents thereof), (ii) require Buyer or any of its Affiliates to continue any specific employee benefit plans, programs or practices (other than requirements as to Buyer’s maintaining overall employee benefit levels described above), (iii) be construed to establish, amend or modify any benefit or compensation plan, program, agreement or arrangement, or (iv) limit the ability of Buyer or any of its Affiliates to amend, modify or terminate any benefit plan, program, agreement or arrangement at any time assumed, established, sponsored or maintained by any of them.

     6.04 Directors’ and Officers’ Liability.

          (a) For a period of six years after the Closing, Buyer shall not, and shall not permit any Purchased Subsidiary or its Subsidiaries to amend, repeal or modify any provision in the such Purchased Subsidiary’s or its Subsidiaries’ organizational documents relating to the exculpation or indemnification of any officers and directors prior to Closing Date (unless required by Law) unless such amendment would not materially adversely affect the rights or obligations of the such Purchased Subsidiary’s or its Subsidiaries’ officers and directors for events arising prior to the Closing Date, it being the intent of the Parties that the officers and directors of the Purchased Subsidiaries and their Subsidiaries shall continue to be entitled to such exculpation and indemnification to the full extent of the law for events arising prior to the Closing Date. During such period, Buyer and the Purchased Subsidiaries and their Subsidiaries shall honor the indemnification and other obligations of the Purchased Subsidiaries and their Subsidiaries to the officers and directors of the Purchased Subsidiaries and their Subsidiaries prior to the Closing Date for events arising prior to the Closing Date to the fullest extent of the law as provided under such organizational documents. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the foregoing shall not limit or restrict Buyer of any of its Affiliates from liquidating or winding up the affairs of the Purchased Subsidiaries or their Subsidiaries.

          (b) In the event that after the Closing Date, any Purchased Subsidiary or its Subsidiaries (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity in such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person (including by liquidation), then, and in each case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of such Purchased Subsidiary and its Subsidiaries, honor the indemnification and other obligations of such

Purchased Subsidiary and its Subsidiaries to the officers and directors of such Purchased Subsidiary and its Subsidiaries prior to the Closing Date, including under this Agreement.

     6.05 Orderly Transition; Post-Closing Access to Information.

          (a) Following the Closing, Seller shall (i) reasonably cooperate (including by providing any financial information in a timeframe consistent with the SEC reporting obligations of Buyer and its Affiliates) in the preparation of audited financial statements of the Purchased Subsidiaries and their Subsidiaries for the twelve months ended December 31, 2010, prepared in accordance with the Accounting Practices and Procedures (the “Purchased Subsidiaries Audited Financial Statements”), and (ii) use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause its independent auditors to assist and cooperate in the preparation of the Purchased Subsidiaries Audited Financial Statements, including using its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such auditors to provide any necessary “comfort letters”; provided, that the incremental costs and expenses associated with the preparation of the Purchased Subsidiaries Audited Financial Statements shall be borne by Buyer.

          (b) After the Closing, in a timeframe to be mutually agreed by the Parties, in order to facilitate the preparation of financial statements of Seller or its Affiliates for periods prior to the Closing, Buyer shall cause the Purchased Subsidiaries and their Subsidiaries to afford to Seller and its accountants and other representatives reasonable access, upon reasonable notice during normal business hours, to the personnel, properties, books, Contracts and records of the Purchased Subsidiaries and their Subsidiaries relating to the pre-Closing period, and shall cause the Purchased Subsidiaries, their Subsidiaries and their respective personnel and representatives to consult as reasonably requested by Seller in respect of the foregoing; provided, however, that such access does not (i) unreasonably disrupt the normal operations of the Business, (ii) result in the waiver of any attorney-client privilege or the disclosure of any trade secrets or (iii) violate any Law or the terms of any applicable Contract.

          (c) Following the Closing, in the event and for so long as any Party is actively investigating, contesting or defending against any Action commenced or threatened by any third party with respect to (i) any transaction contemplated by this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or (ii) any fact, situation, circumstance, status, condition, activity, practice, plan, occurrence, event, incident, action, failure to act or transaction on or prior to the Closing involving the Purchased Subsidiaries or their businesses, the other Party will, and will cause its Affiliates to, cooperate with the investigating, contesting or defending Party and its counsel in the contest or defense, make available its and its Affiliates’ personnel and provide such testimony and access to its and its Affiliates’ books and records as shall be reasonably necessary in connection with the investigation, contest or defense, all at the sole cost and expense of the investigating, contesting or defending Party; provided, however, that, for the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing shall not require any Party to take any such action to the extent that (x) it may result in a waiver or breach of any attorney/client privilege, (y) it could reasonably be expected to result in a violation of applicable Law or increased Taxes for such Party, or (z) providing such access or information would be reasonably expected to unreasonably disrupt the normal operations of such Party or its Affiliates.

     6.06 Acknowledgment by the Parties.

          (a) EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES BY THE OTHER PARTIES SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY CERTIFICATE DELIVERED HEREUNDER, CONSTITUTE THE SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE OTHER PARTIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, AND EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO UNDERSTANDS, ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ALL OTHER REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND OR NATURE EXPRESS OR IMPLIED (INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY RELATING TO THE FUTURE FINANCIAL CONDITION OR PROJECTIONS, RESULTS OF OPERATIONS, ASSETS OR LIABILITIES OF THE PURCHASED SUBSIDIARIES OR THEIR SUBSIDIARIES OR ANY OTHER PERSON) ARE SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMED BY THE PARTIES.

          (b) In connection with each Party’s investigation of the other Party, a Party may have received certain projections from or on behalf of the other Party. Each Party hereto acknowledges and agrees that there are uncertainties inherent in attempting to make such estimates, projections and other forecasts and plans, and that the receiving Party is familiar with such uncertainties. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, neither Party makes any representations or warranties whatsoever with respect to such estimates, projections and other forecasts and plans (including the reasonableness of the assumptions underlying such estimates, projections and forecasts).

     6.07 Further Assurances. From time to time, as and when requested by either Party and at such Party’s expense, the other Party shall, or shall cause its Affiliates to, execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, all such documents and instruments and shall take, or cause to be taken, all such further or other actions as the requesting Party may reasonably deem necessary or desirable to evidence and effectuate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

     6.08 Confidential Information. The Parties intend that the information related to the Purchased Subsidiaries and their respective Subsidiaries, businesses, operations, assets and liabilities (“Confidential Information”) is held by or controlled by, and is intended to be for the use and benefit of, Buyer and the Purchased Subsidiaries. Accordingly, Seller agrees that it shall, and it shall cause its Affiliates and its and their directors, officers, employees, agents, consultants, representatives and advisors (collectively with Seller, the “Subject Persons”) to, keep confidential and not use or disclose, any Confidential Information (other than as expressly contemplated by any other Transaction Document and other than disclosure to its representatives who need to know such information and for whom such Person shall be responsible for their compliance herewith); provided, however, that this Section 6.08 shall not restrict the disclosure or use of Confidential Information to the extent such information can be shown to have been (i) in the public domain on the Closing Date or thereafter without breach of the commitment provided for in this Section 6.08, (ii) acquired after the date of this Agreement on a non-confidential basis from a third party source that is not prohibited from disclosing such information to such Person, or (iii) independently generated by such Subject Person without any

reference to any other Confidential Information. In the event that a Subject Person is required by judicial or administrative process or other Law to disclose Confidential Information, Seller or the Subject Person shall give Buyer prompt notice of any such requirement and, at Buyer’s sole cost and expense, assist Buyer with seeking a protective order or other appropriate remedy in response to such requirement. In the event of a breach by any party of any of the provisions of this Section 6.08, the parties acknowledge that such breach may cause irreparable damage to Buyer, the Purchased Subsidiaries and their Subsidiaries, the exact amount of which may be difficult to ascertain, and the remedies at law for any such breach may be inadequate. Accordingly, each of Buyer, the Purchased Subsidiaries and their Subsidiaries may be entitled, in addition to any other rights or remedies existing in its favor, to seek specific performance and injunctive relief in order to enforce or prevent breach of any such provisions.

     6.09 Use of Name; Source Code Escrow Agreement.

          (a) Within 120 days of the Closing Date, Buyer shall take all necessary actions to change the corporate names of KUED, KUED Sub I LLC, KUED SUB II LLC and KU Education Digital India Private Limited to new names which do not include “KNOWLEDGE UNIVERSE” or the acronyms “KU,”, “KUED” or “KUE” and are not otherwise confusingly similar thereto (the “KU Marks”) and shall have the right to use such names consistent with past practice during such time period. Buyer acknowledges that no rights in the KU Marks will be transferred to Buyer, the Purchased Subsidiaries or their Subsidiaries in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In the event that any ownership rights in the KU Marks are transferred inadvertently or otherwise acquired by Buyer, the Purchased Subsidiaries or their Subsidiaries in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, Buyer hereby transfers and assigns, and shall cause such Purchased Subsidiaries or their Subsidiaries to transfer and assign, effective as of the Closing Date, back to Seller all rights, title and interest in and to the KU Marks throughout the world in all existing and future media and all goodwill therein. Seller acknowledges that no rights in the name “GLOBALSCHOLAR” or any name confusingly similar thereto (the “GLOBALSCHOLAR Marks”) will be retained by Seller or its Affiliates (other than the Purchased Subsidiaries and their Subsidiaries) following the Closing Date. In the event that any rights in the GLOBALSCHOLAR Marks are retained by Seller or such other Affiliates, Seller hereby transfers and assigns and shall cause such other Affiliates to transfer or assign, effective as of the Closing Date, to the Purchased Subsidiaries and their Subsidiaries all right, title and interest in and to the GLOBALSCHOLAR Marks throughout the world in all existing and future media and all goodwill therein.

     6.10 Miscellaneous. To the extent that Seller makes any distributions to holders of Seller’s units upon or after the Closing with respect to which former holders of UARs are entitled to any portion, Seller shall remit to KUED as a contribution to capital that portion of the

distributions to which former holders of UARs are so entitled and, at the time of such remittance, Seller shall instruct KUED as to the former holders to whom such distributions shall be paid and the amounts in which such distributions shall be paid. Within fifteen Business Days following such remittance by Seller to KUED, KUED shall pay such amounts to such former holders of UARs in accordance with Seller’s instructions as to recipient and amount, net of applicable withholding taxes. For the avoidance of doubt, any applicable taxes that are withheld by KUED and remitted to the appropriate taxing authority shall be treated, for all purposes, as having been paid to the former UAR holder with respect to whom such taxes are withheld.

          (a) In order for a Buyer Indemnified Party or Seller Indemnified Party (the “Indemnified Party”) to be entitled to any indemnification provided for under this Article VIII as a result of a Loss, or as a result of a claim or demand made by any Person against the Indemnified Party (a “Third Party Claim”), such Indemnified Party shall deliver written notice (an “Indemnification Notice”) of such Third Party Claim or other Loss not involving a Third Party Claim to the Escrow Agent and to Seller or to Buyer, as applicable (the “Indemnifying Party”), promptly after receipt by such Indemnified Party of written notice of the Third Party Claim or incurrence of such other Loss, describing in reasonable detail the facts giving rise to any claim for indemnification hereunder, the amount or method of computation of the amount of such claim (in the case of a Third Party Claim, if known), the basis for indemnification under this Agreement and the nature of the breach of representation or warranty, covenant or agreement to which such claim is related (the “Indemnification Claim”). The failure to provide such notice, however, shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under this Article VIII except to the extent (and only to the extent) that (x) the Indemnifying Party is actually and materially prejudiced by such failure or (y) such Indemnification Claim is not delivered prior to the applicable Survival Date. Any Indemnification Notice in respect of a Third Party Claim shall enclose therewith a copy of all relevant papers served with respect to such Third Party Claim, if any, and any other documents evidencing such Third Party Claim.

          (b) The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, upon written notice to the Indemnified Party within 30 days of receipt of an Indemnification Notice in respect of a Third Party Claim, to assume the defense thereof at the expense of the Indemnifying Party with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party and reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of such Third Party Claim:

          (i) the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnifying Party and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that (A) if outside counsel to the Indemnified Party advises that there may be one or more legal defenses available to the Indemnified Party that are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party and, in the reasonable judgment of such counsel, it is advisable for the Indemnified Party to employ separate counsel in order to effectively assert such defense or defenses, then the fees of and costs incurred by such separate counsel (but in no event more than one separate counsel in respect of any Third Party Claim or series of related Third Party Claims) in respect of such different or additional defenses may be deemed Losses and indemnifiable (x) if and to the extent that Losses arising from the underlying Third Party Claim are determined to be indemnifiable under this Agreement and (y) pursuant to, and subject to the limitations in, this Agreement, (B) notwithstanding such participation, the Indemnifying Party and its counsel shall control the investigation, defense and settlement of such Third Party Claim subject to the terms of this Section 8.04 and (C) under no

circumstances shall the Indemnified Party file any papers or admit any liability with respect to, or settle, compromise or discharge, or offer to settle, compromise or discharge, such Third Party Claim (it being agreed that if the Indemnified Party breaches this clause (C), the Indemnifying Party will have no liability with respect to any Losses arising from the subject Third Party Claim(s));

          (ii) the Indemnifying Party shall not agree to any settlement, compromise or discharge of such Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which in any event shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) unless such settlement, compromise or judgment (A) includes a complete release by the claimant or plaintiff of the Indemnified Party from all liability in respect of such Third Party Claim, (B) does not impose equitable remedies or material obligations on the Indemnified Party other than financial obligations for which such Indemnified Party will be indemnified hereunder, and (C) will not result in an admission of criminal liability or culpability on the part of the Indemnified Party or give rise to criminal liability with respect to the Indemnified Party, it being understood that the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to settle, compromise or discharge any Third Party Claim, and the Indemnified Party shall be required to agree in writing to such settlement, compromise or discharge, if the same shall by its terms satisfy each of clauses (A), (B) and (C) above; and

          (iii) the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any amount that exceeds, where the Indemnified Party has unreasonably withheld or delayed consent in connection with the proposed settlement, compromise or discharge of a Third Party Claim, the amount for which that Third Party Claim could have been settled, compromised or discharged but for such unreasonable withholding or delay of consent (it being understood that the Indemnifying Party shall have the burden of proving that the Indemnified Party unreasonably withheld or delayed such consent).

          (c) If the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of such Third Party Claim within 30 days of receipt of the Indemnification Notice, the Indemnified Party will be entitled to assume such defense upon delivery of notice to such effect to the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnified Party assumes the defense of such Third Party Claim:

          (i) the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to participate in the defense of the Third Party Claim at its sole cost and expense, but notwithstanding such participation, the Indemnified Party and its counsel shall control the investigation, defense and settlement of such Third Party Claim subject to the terms of this Section 8.04;

          (ii) the Indemnified Party shall not agree to any settlement, compromise or discharge of such Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which in any event shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) unless (A) the Indemnified Party expressly waives in writing any right to seek or obtain indemnification hereunder or any other remedy against the Indemnifying Party with respect to such Third Party Claim or the facts or events giving rise thereto, and (B) such settlement, compromise or discharge will not result in an admission of criminal liability or culpability on the part of the Indemnifying Party or give rise to criminal

liability with respect to the Indemnifying Party, it being understood and agreed that (x) the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to settle, compromise or discharge any Third Party Claim, and the Indemnifying Party shall be required to agree in writing to such settlement, compromise or discharge, if the same shall by its terms satisfy each of clauses (A) and (B) above and (y) the Indemnifying Party will have no liability with respect to any Losses arising from any Third Party Claim(s) settled in contravention of this clause (ii); and

          (iii) the fees of and costs incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the investigation, defense and settlement of such Third Party Claim may be deemed Losses and indemnifiable (x) if and to the extent that Losses arising from the underlying Third Party Claim are determined to be indemnifiable under this Agreement and (y) pursuant to, and subject to the limitations in, this Agreement.

          (d) In the case of a purported Loss not involving a Third Party Claim, upon receipt of an Indemnification Notice with respect thereto that complies with the provisions of Section 8.04(a) above, the Indemnifying Party will have 30 days to notify the Indemnified Party that it disputes one or more of the Indemnification Claims made therein. If the Indemnifying Party does not dispute an Indemnification Claim within such 30-day period, it will be deemed to have admitted liability with respect to such Indemnification Claim and shall be obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Party with respect to such undisputed Indemnification Claim pursuant to, and subject to the limitations in, this Agreement. From and after delivery of the Indemnification Notice until the final resolution of the Indemnification Claims made therein, the Indemnified Party shall reasonably cooperate with and assist the Indemnifying Party in determining the validity of the Indemnification Claim made therein and in otherwise resolving such matters. Such assistance and cooperation shall include providing commercially reasonable access to and copies of information, records and documents relating to such matters, furnishing employees to assist in the investigation, defense and resolution of such matters and providing legal and business assistance with respect to such matters.

     8.05 Determination of Loss Amount.

          (a) The amount of any Loss subject to indemnification under this Article VIII shall be calculated net of (i) any Tax Benefit realized by the Indemnified Party on account of such Loss in the taxable year in which the Loss is incurred or the indemnification payment therefor is made or in the two succeeding taxable years (or any preceding taxable year, to the extent any deductions or losses are carried back), and (ii) any insurance proceeds or other amounts under indemnification agreements received by the Indemnified Party on account of such Loss (net of any deductible or co-payment or out-of-pocket costs of collection and the Indemnified Party’s reasonable estimate of any increase in insurance premiums attributable to such recovery).

          (b) For purposes of Section 8.05(a), “Tax Benefit” shall mean the Indemnified Party’s reasonable estimate of the present value of any refund of Taxes to be paid or reduction in the amount of Taxes which otherwise would have been paid as a result of such indemnified Loss (with the timing and receipt or realization of such refund or reduction to be estimated in the reasonable discretion of the Indemnified Party), net of any increase in Taxes payable by the

Indemnified Party on account of receipt of the indemnification payment, provided, that in calculating the present value of any such amount, Buyer shall use as the discount rate the short-term applicable federal rate in effect at the time it calculates such Tax Benefit. At the time of the calculation of such Tax Benefit, the Indemnified Party shall (A) use commercially reasonable efforts to cause its independent auditor, which shall be a “Big Four” accounting firm, to certify in writing to the Indemnifying Party that such calculation is based on reasonable assumptions, which certification shall be final and conclusive evidence of the fact and amount of such Tax Benefit (which cannot be challenged by the Indemnifying Party in any manner) and (B) deliver to the Indemnifying Party a certificate executed by an authorized officer certifying that the Indemnified Party has not taken any action which was primarily intended to frustrate the purpose of Section 8.05(a)(i); provided that, except with respect to the certification in clause (B), nothing in this Section 8.05 shall affect the absolute discretion of the Indemnified Party and its Affiliates to arrange its Tax affairs in whatever way they consider fit (including any decision as to whether to seek recovery of any relevant Tax credit or Tax refund). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in no event shall the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates be required to disclose any of their Tax Returns or other documents or information relating to its Tax returns or other tax affairs in connection with the procedures set forth in this Section 8.05 (including in connection with any Action or other dispute).

          (c) Without affecting the Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification hereunder (unless proceeds are recovered), the Indemnified Party shall seek and shall make commercially reasonable efforts to obtain full recovery under all insurance policies and/or indemnification agreements covering any Loss to the same extent as they would if such Loss were not subject to indemnification hereunder. In the event that an insurance or other recovery is made by any Indemnified Party with respect to any Loss for which any such Person has been indemnified hereunder, then a refund equal to the aggregate amount of the recovery (net of any deductible or co-payment or out-of-pocket costs of collection and the Indemnified Party’s reasonable estimate of any increase in insurance premiums attributable to such recovery) shall be made promptly to the Person or Persons that provided such indemnity payments to such Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnified Parties in respect of any Losses indemnified by the Indemnifying Party. Each Party acknowledges that nothing in this Article VIII shall relieve a Party of any obligation it may have under common law to mitigate Losses subject to indemnification under this Agreement.

     8.06 Manner of Payment.

          (a) Any indemnification payment pursuant to this Article VIII by Buyer shall be effected by wire transfer of immediately available funds from Buyer to an account designated by Seller each within two Business Days after the determination of the amount thereof (whether pursuant to a final judgment, settlement, agreement among the Parties hereto or otherwise).

          (b) Any indemnification payment pursuant to this Article VIII by Seller shall be effected (i) first from each of the Indemnification Escrow Amount and the Transaction Incentive Plan Indemnity Amount in such proportions as are set forth in the Escrow Agreement, (ii) to the extent the foregoing are insufficient to pay or reimburse such Loss and the applicable Buyer Indemnified Party is entitled to seek recovery beyond such amounts with respect to such

Loss, then by set off against any Contingent Consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement, it being understood that any amount so set off shall be funded ratably from the Contingent Purchase Price and from the Contingent Transaction Incentive Plan Amount, and (iii) to the extent the foregoing are insufficient to pay or reimburse such Loss and the applicable Buyer Indemnified Party is entitled to seek recovery beyond such amounts with respect to such Loss, then from Seller by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Buyer.

     8.07 Exclusive Remedy. Each Party hereto acknowledges and agrees that, should the Closing occur, the sole and exclusive remedy of any Person with respect to any and all matters arising out of, relating to or connected with this Agreement and the other transactions contemplated hereby shall be a claim pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.02(a) or this Article VIII; provided, that the provisions of this Section 8.07 shall not (x) apply to any claims that arise from intentional fraud or a Willful and Material Breach by Seller or Buyer or (y) limit any injunctive relief or other specific performance remedy under Section 6.08; provided, further, that nothing in this Section 8.07 is intended to or shall limit Buyer’s rights to pursue any and all remedies available to it under the Restrictive Covenant Agreement and/or any of the Guarantees.

     8.08 Tax Indemnification. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, this Article VIII shall not apply to indemnification with respect to Taxes, which is exclusively covered by Section 6.02.

     8.09 Limitation on Recourse. Other than (x) pursuant to the Guarantees or (y) arising from intentional fraud, no claim shall be brought or maintained by Buyer, the Purchased Subsidiaries or their Subsidiaries, or the successors or permitted assigns of any of them, against any officer, director, partner, member or employee (present or former) of Seller, the Purchased Subsidiaries or their Subsidiaries, or any direct or indirect equity holder of Seller, and no recourse shall be brought or granted against any of them, by virtue of or based upon any alleged misrepresentation or inaccuracy in, or breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements of Seller set forth or contained in, this Agreement or any certificate delivered hereunder.

     11.05 References. The table of contents and the section and other headings and subheadings contained in this Agreement and the exhibits hereto are solely for the purpose of reference, are not part of the agreement of the Parties hereto, and shall not in any way affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement or any exhibit hereto.

     11.11 Arbitration Procedures for Certain Disputes.

          (a) The Parties agree that, from and after the Closing, the arbitration procedure set forth below shall be the sole and exclusive method of the Parties for finally

resolving and remedying disputes under Section 1.05(c) herein that are not by the terms thereof to be submitted for resolution by the Accounting Referee.

          (b) The arbitration shall be held in Dallas, Texas in accordance with JAMS’ Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures (the “Rules”) then in effect, however in all events, the provisions contained in this Section shall govern over any conflicting rule that may now or hereafter be contained in the Rules. There shall be a single arbitrator who shall be mutually agreed upon by the Parties. In the event the Parties are unable to agree on an arbitrator within 20 days following the commencement of the arbitration (in accordance with the Rules), on the request of any Party JAMS will select an arbitrator in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Rules. No arbitrator shall have any past or present family, business or other relationship with either Party or its Affiliates, unless, following full disclosure of all such relationships, the Parties agree in writing in their respective sole discretions to waive such requirement with respect to an individual in connection with any dispute. The arbitrator shall have the authority to grant any and all equitable and legal remedies that would be available if a judicial proceeding had been instituted to resolve the dispute. The arbitrator will furnish a written decision and award to each of the Parties, which decision and award will be final and binding on the Parties and may be entered an enforced in any court having jurisdiction. The Parties shall keep confidential any arbitration conducted in accordance with this Section 11.11; except as may be required by law or legal process and provided that such parties may discuss the arbitration with their respective advisors and attorneys who shall be bound to protect such confidentiality; and provided, further that either Party may take such steps as may be necessary to confirm and enforce the award in a public judicial proceeding. Unless otherwise ordered by the arbitrator, no discovery other than an exchange of documents directly relevant to the issues in dispute may occur in any arbitration other than upon a showing of unusual and substantial need. The Parties shall in good faith promptly exchange relevant, non-privileged documents created prior to the commencement of the arbitration and not likely to be in the possession of the other Party. The arbitrator shall be instructed to hold a hearing regarding the dispute within ninety (90) days of his or her appointment and to render a decision no later than 30 days after the conclusion of such hearing, in each case unless otherwise mutually agreed in writing by the Parties. The Parties agree, however, that in the event that these time periods are not strictly adhered to, this shall not be used a basis for setting aside an award. Any issue concerning the extent to which any dispute is subject to arbitration, or concerning the applicability, interpretation, or enforceability of any of the Rules or the provisions of this agreement to arbitrate shall be resolved by the arbitrator. An arbitrator chosen in accordance with these provisions will not have the power to alter, amend or otherwise affect the terms of these arbitration provisions or any other provisions contained in this Section or this Agreement.

          (c) The Parties will equally share the initial costs of the arbitration, and the award of the arbitrator shall allocate attorneys’ fees, expenses and costs, as well as the costs of the arbitration, between the Parties in the manner the arbitrator determines to be the most equitable, with the presumption that the American Rule (with each party bearing its own costs) applies unless the equities dictate otherwise.

     11.12 No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns and

nothing herein, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person any legal or equitable right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement; provided, that any Person that is not a Party but, by the terms of Sections 6.02, 6.04 or Article VIII, is entitled to indemnification, shall be considered a third party beneficiary of this Agreement, with full rights of enforcement as though such Person was a signatory to this Agreement.

     11.13 Representation by Counsel. Each Party represents and agrees with each other that it has been represented by or had the opportunity to be represented by, independent counsel of its own choosing, and that it has had the full right and opportunity to consult with its respective attorney(s), that to the extent, if any, that it desired, it availed itself of this right and opportunity, that it or its authorized officers (as the case may be) have carefully read and fully understand this Agreement in its entirety and have had it fully explained to them by such Party’s respective counsel, that each is fully aware of the contents thereof and its meaning, intent and legal effect, and that it or its authorized officer (as the case may be) is competent to execute this Agreement and has executed this Agreement free from coercion, duress or undue influence.
