5.4                                        Adjustment of the Initial Purchase Price

5.4.1                              The Parties agree that the Initial Purchase Price has been determined on the basis that (i) the Group Companies shall have no Debt or Cash as at the Completion Date, (ii) the Group Companies shall have a Working Capital of EUR 0 (in words: zero euro) as at the Completion Date (the Target Working Capital), and (iii) the Foundation Assets shall be equal to the Foundation Liabilities. Should the aforementioned assumptions be incorrect as of the Completion Date, then the Initial Purchase Price shall be adjusted pursuant to Clauses 5.4.2 through 5.4.14.

5.4.2                              The Initial Purchase Price shall be increased by the amount of any Cash and decreased by the amount of any Debt of the Group Companies as appears from the Final Balance Sheet as defined in Clause 5.4.8 (the Cash and Debt Adjustment).

5.4.3                              The Initial Purchase Price shall be increased by the amount of any Foundation Assets and decreased by the amount of any Foundation Liabilities of the Foundation as appears from the Final Balance Sheet (the Foundation Adjustment).

5.4.4                              The Initial Purchase Price shall be decreased by the amount by which the Working Capital as at the Completion Date (the Actual Working Capital) is less than an amount equal to EUR 0 (in words: zero euro) and increased by the amount by which

the Actual Working Capital exceeds an amount equal to EUR 0 (in words: zero euro) as appears from the Final Balance Sheet (the Working Capital Adjustment).

5.4.5                              For the purpose of determining the Purchase Price, the amount of the Cash and Debt Adjustment, the Foundation Adjustment and the Working Capital Adjustment shall initially be computed on the basis of the Interim Accounts (the Estimated Balance Sheet) and the working papers in connection therewith, setting forth the Sellers’ good faith estimate of Working Capital, Cash and Debt and the Foundation Assets and the Foundation Liabilities as of 30 September 2013. In order to reflect that Completion will take place almost two (2) months after 30 September 2013, Parties have agreed to make a deduction in relation to the Working Capital of EUR 200,000 (in words: two hundred thousand euro).

5.4.6                              The balance of the amount determined pursuant to Clause 5.4.5 shall be paid in the same manner as included in Clause 5.4.12.

5.4.7                              Not later than ninety (90) Business Days after the Completion Date, the Purchaser will deliver to the Sellers an unaudited consolidated balance sheet of the Group Companies and the Foundation as of the Completion Date, prepared in accordance with the Accounting Principles and consisting of the line items set out in the Estimated Balance Sheet (the Proposed Balance Sheet) and the working papers in connection therewith, setting forth the amount of Working Capital, Cash and Debt and the Foundation Assets and the Foundation Liabilities as of the Completion Date.

5.4.8                              Within a period of fifteen (15) Business Days after the receipt by the Sellers of the Proposed Balance Sheet and the working papers in connection therewith, the Sellers shall inform the Purchaser in writing whether they agree to or dispute the Proposed Balance Sheet in whole or in part (Balance Sheet Notice). If no Balance Sheet Notice is received from the Sellers within the fifteen (15) Business Days term, the Proposed Balance Sheet shall be deemed to be agreed between and binding upon the Parties. If the Proposed Balance Sheet is disputed by the Sellers in the Balance Sheet Notice received by the Purchaser within such fifteen (15) Business Day period, the Parties shall within a period of twenty (20) Business Days after the receipt of the Balance Sheet Notice by the Purchaser endeavour to agree on a definitive balance sheet (the Final Balance Sheet) prepared in accordance with the Accounting Principles.

5.4.9                              If the Sellers and Purchaser fail so to agree within the said twenty (20) Business Days period, either the Sellers or the Purchaser may refer any dispute for resolution to a reputable “Big Four” international accounting firm (other than the existing auditors of the Sellers or the Purchaser) (the Expert) appointed (i) by the Sellers and the Purchaser or (ii) in default of agreement on such appointment within five (5) Business Days, by the chairman of the Netherlands Institute of Chartered Accountants (NBA, Nederlandse Beroepsorganisatie van Accountants). The Expert shall be instructed to render its opinion as soon as practicable and in any event within twenty (20) Business Days after the date of the engagement letter pursuant to which the Expert is formally instructed to render its opinion.

5.4.10                       In making its determination the Expert shall act as an expert and not as an arbitrator

and the decision of the Expert shall (in the absence of manifest error) be final and binding on the Parties (bindend advies). The expenses of the Expert shall be borne by one or more of the Sellers and Purchaser in such equitable proportions as the Expert shall direct, taking into account the amount in dispute, the character of the dispute and the prevailing party in the dispute.

5.4.11                       The Proposed Balance Sheet shall be adjusted on the basis of the Expert’s resolution of such dispute and as so adjusted shall become the Final Balance Sheet.

5.4.12                       After the Final Balance Sheet has been agreed in accordance with Clause 5.4.8 or has been finally determined in accordance with Clause 5.4.9 and 5.4.10, the Cash and Debt Adjustment, the Working Capital Adjustment and the Foundation Adjustment shall to the extent applicable be recomputed on the basis of the Final Balance Sheet as so determined. To the extent the amount paid by the Purchaser to the Sellers at Completion, as computed using the Estimated Balance Sheet, differs from the Purchase Price as finally computed on the basis of the Final Balance Sheet, the Sellers shall pay the excess to the Purchaser, by transferring a certain number of Consideration Shares to the Purchaser which number of Consideration Shares shall be calculated by converting such amount in the equivalent USD amount at the applicable Exchange Rate at Completion and by dividing such amount by the average five (5) day average share price at closing of trade of the Parent Common Stock on the five (5) trading days immediately preceding the Completion Date or the Purchaser shall pay the deficiency to the Sellers, as the case may be, within five (5) Business Days after the Final Balance Sheet is finally determined.

5.4.13                       Parties acknowledge and agree that the Initial Purchase Price will not be adjusted pursuant to this Clause 5.4 if and to the extent any such adjustment would be less than EUR 750,000 (in words: seven hundred fifty thousand euro). In the event the adjustment exceeds the amount of EUR 750,000 (in words: seven hundred fifty thousand euro) the Initial Purchase Price will be adjusted by the amount in excess of 750,000 (in words: seven hundred fifty thousand euro).

5.4.14                       Annex 5.4 hereto sets forth an example of the determination of the adjustment of the Initial Purchase Price pursuant to this Clause 5.4.

If the Calculation Second Tranche Purchase Price is disputed in a written Notice received by the Purchaser within such twenty (20) Business Day period, the Parties shall for ten (10) Business Days after such receipt attempt to resolve their differences and reach agreement on the merits and amount of the disputed portion.

6.1.5                              In the event that any dispute relating to the Calculation Second Tranche Purchase Price is not resolved within the period referred to in Clause 6.1.4 (or such longer period as agreed upon in writing between the Parties) then the matter shall be referred to and resolved by the Expert on the terms and conditions as set out in Clause 5.4.9 through 5.4.12.

10.5                                 Disclosure

If for whatever reason, the Purchaser does not timely notify the Sellers, no claim for Damages in respect of such Warranty Breach shall be taken into account to the extent that such Warranty Breach could have been mitigated and not timely notifying the Sellers thereof causes damages to the Sellers or limits the Sellers’ possibilities to mitigate or limit their damages.
