The Sellers acknowledge and agree that the remedy at Law for any breach, or threatened breach, of any of the provisions of this Section will be inadequate and, accordingly, the Sellers covenant and agree that Purchaser shall, in addition to any other rights and remedies which Purchaser may have at Law, be entitled to equitable relief, including injunctive relief, and to the remedy of specific performance with respect to any breach or threatened breach of such covenant, as may be available from any court of competent jurisdiction. In addition, the Sellers and Purchaser agree that the terms of the covenant in this Section are fair and reasonable in light of Purchaser’s plans for the Business and are necessary to accomplish the full transfer of the goodwill and other intangible assets contemplated hereby. In the event that any of the covenants contained in this Section shall be determined by any court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable for any reason whatsoever, then any such provision or provisions shall not be deemed void, and the parties hereto agree that said limits may be modified by the court and that said covenant contained in this Section shall be amended in accordance with said modification, it being specifically agreed by the parties that it is their continuing desire that this covenant be enforced to the full extent of its terms and conditions or if a court finds the scope of the covenant unenforceable, the court should redefine the covenant so as to comply with applicable Law.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit or restrict either Seller or any of Sellers' Affiliates from:

(i) carrying on its present business or businesses (other than the Restricted Activities) anywhere in the world or any development thereof (whether by acquisition or otherwise) including, but not limited to, the electronic security activities carried on by Initial Electronics, Inc. anywhere in the world;

(ii) acquiring any company, group of companies or business if the revenues of such company, group of companies or business for its latest annual accounting period which is derived from business carried on in the United States of America which competes with any Restricted Activity does not exceed ten percent (10%) of its total revenues for such period;

(iii) acquiring any company, group of companies or business if the revenues of such company, group of companies or business for its latest annual accounting period which is derived from business carried on in the United States of America which competes with any Restricted Activity exceeds ten percent (10%), but does not exceed thirty percent (30%), of its total revenues for such period (the “Competing Business”) provided that:

(A) the Principal Seller notifies the Purchaser in writing (setting out in reasonable detail the nature and activities of the Competing Business) as soon as is reasonably practicable after such acquisition; and

(B) the Principal Seller uses reasonable good faith efforts to dispose or to cause the disposal of the Competing Business to a Person who is not an Affiliate of the Principal Seller as soon as is reasonably practicable thereafter taking into account then current market conditions and in any event within twelve (12) months of such acquisition; or

(iv) entering into or performing or otherwise being party to any contract or agreement for the provision of services which comprise more than one type of service, one of which is the provision of contract guarding business, provided that either:

(A) the contract guarding business is sub-contracted to another Person who is not an Affiliate of the Principal Seller, provided that:

(1) Purchaser and its Affiliates shall have first been offered in writing the opportunity to provide the services that are proposed to be sub-contracted, such offer to detail with reasonable specificity the nature of the services to be provided, the location at which such services are to be provided, and the duration, pricing and other material terms of the proposed engagement;

(2) The Sellers and their Affiliates shall have negotiated in good faith with Purchaser and its Affiliates with respect to the foregoing for a period of not less than 30 days from the date the Purchaser receives the offer in writing referred to above;

(3) In the event the Sellers and Purchaser do not reach agreement on the terms pursuant to which the Purchaser or its Affiliates will provide the services that are proposed to be sub-contracted, the Sellers shall have a period of 60 days to reach such an agreement with another Person who is not an Affiliate of the Principal Seller, provided that such agreement shall contain price and other terms no less favorable to the Sellers than the most recent terms offered by them in writing to Purchaser; and

(4) In the event that Sellers do not reach an agreement with a Person who is not an Affiliate of the Principal Seller within such 60-day period, they must again first offer Purchaser and its Affiliates the opportunity to provide the services that are proposed to be sub-contracted (in accordance with the procedures set forth above) before seeking to reach an agreement relating to the provision of such services with a Person who is not an Affiliate of the Principal Seller; or

(B) the guarding element of the business is carried out by individuals who are employees or agents of the client of the Principal Seller's Affiliate and not employees or agents of an Affiliate of the Principal Seller, but who may be managed or supervised by an Affiliate of the Principal Seller for the purposes of discharging such contract or agreement; provided that the Principal Seller gives the Purchaser five (5) Business Days notice prior to any of its Affiliates commencing the provision of services under any contract or agreement of the kind referred to in this subparagraph.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Sellers or their Affiliates, for a period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the second anniversary thereof, directly or indirectly engage in a Restricted Activity under the Retained Names.

5.6

Indebtedness; Transaction Expenses.

At the Closing, Purchaser shall cause all Indebtedness, including any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, owed to either Seller or any of their Affiliates (the principal amount of which the Sellers represent is, as of the date hereof, US$40 million, and will be, as of the Closing Date, US$40 million, and the interest rate on which the Sellers represent is, as of the date hereof, five percent (5%) per annum, and will be, through the Closing Date, five percent (5%) per annum) to be paid in full. At the Closing, the Sellers shall pay or cause to be paid in full all Transaction Expenses incurred after the Effective Date but not yet paid (other than by causing payment from, or otherwise using funds of, the Companies or any Subsidiary). At the Closing, the Sellers shall reimburse the Purchaser for all Transaction Expenses paid by the Companies or any Subsidiary after the Effective Date (other than by causing payment from, or otherwise using funds of, the Companies or any Subsidiary).

5.7

Financing-Related Cooperation.

The Sellers shall cause each Company to provide, and the Companies shall cause their Subsidiaries and respective directors, officers, employees, auditors, legal counsel and other advisors to provide, such cooperation as is reasonably necessary in connection with the arrangement of any financing by Purchaser, for purposes of obtaining the Consideration and other payments to be made by Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement, including, without limitation, participation in meetings with lenders and investors, due diligence sessions, drafting sessions, the execution and delivery by any Company and its Subsidiaries of any commitment letters, loan, underwriting, placement or similar agreements, pledge and security documents, the delivery of opinions of counsel to any Company and its Subsidiaries covering the matters customarily covered by opinions of counsel in connection with any such financing and “comfort” letters (or, in the case of any such Person which does not satisfy the conditions for receipt of a “comfort” letter specified in Statement on Auditing Standards No. 72, an “agreed upon procedures” letter) executed by the independent public accountants who have certified the Companies’ Audited Financial Statements and taking such other actions related to such financing as are reasonably required by Purchaser, including Sellers providing reasonable assistance to Purchaser in connection with Purchaser’s preparing or having prepared a reviewed version of the Unaudited Financial Statements, audited financial statements and auditor consents, all as reasonably deemed necessary and appropriate by Purchaser’s lenders in connection with obtaining such financing and to enable Purchaser to comply with its post-acquisition disclosure obligations as required by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

(c) each Subsidiary that is directly or indirectly wholly-owned by Security Services and/or Initial Security, that is not a disregarded entity for United States federal, state and local income Tax purposes, to be converted into a disregarded entity for United States federal, state and local income Tax purposes (the “Subsidiary Conversions”, and together with the Security Services Conversion and the Initial Security Conversion, the “Conversion Transactions”) provided, however, that no later than one day prior to the Closing Date, CPS Security Inc., a California corporation, shall be liquidated for federal, state and local income Tax purposes (the "Liquidation"). No later than thirty (30) days prior to the Closing, Sellers shall provide Purchaser with copies of all corporate documents necessary to effect each Conversion Transaction and the Liquidation for review and approval by the Purchaser. The Sellers may attempt to effect the Initial Security Conversion by filing one or more elections to be treated as a disregarded entity for United States federal, state and local income Tax purposes (the "Initial Security Election"), provided however, that Sellers may only effect the Initial Security Conversion through an Initial Security Election after permitting Purchaser to review and approve all relevant documentation relating to such election(s). In the event that Sellers attempt to effect the Initial Security Conversion through the Initial Security Election, Sellers shall simultaneously take actions to effect the Initial Security Conversion through a merger or conversion transaction.

5.9

Notice of Certain Matters.

Prior to the Closing, the Sellers shall promptly notify Purchaser if, to the Sellers’ Knowledge, any Key Customer Contract becomes the subject of a competitive bidding process or if any Company or any Subsidiary receives notice or is informed in writing, or, to the Sellers’ Knowledge, orally, that any Key Customer Contract will be the subject of a competitive bidding process within nine months after the date thereof.

COVENANTS OF ALL PARTIES

7.1

Advice of Changes.

Except to the extent prohibited by applicable Law, each of the Sellers and the Purchaser shall promptly advise the other Party orally and in writing to the extent it has or they have knowledge of (a) any representation or warranty made by it contained in this Agreement becoming untrue or inaccurate in any material respect, (b) the failure by it or them to comply with or satisfy in any material respect any covenant, condition or agreement to be complied with or satisfied by it under this Agreement and (c) any change or event having, or which, insofar as can reasonably be foreseen, could have a material adverse effect on such party (or, in the case of either Company, a Material Adverse Effect) or on the accuracy of their respective representations and warranties or the ability of the conditions set forth in Articles 9 and 10 to be satisfied; provided, however, that no such notification shall affect the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements of the parties (or remedies with respect thereto) or the conditions to the obligations of the parties under this Agreement or relieve any liability for any breach thereof.

7.2

Transition.

Commencing following the date hereof and continuing until the Closing, Purchaser and the Companies shall, and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries to, use their reasonable best efforts to facilitate the planning for the integration of the Companies and the Subsidiaries with the businesses of Purchaser and its Subsidiaries after the Closing. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) senior officers of Purchaser and the Companies shall meet on a regular basis (but in no event less than once per week) to review the financial and operational affairs of the Companies and their Subsidiaries, in accordance with applicable Law, (b) consistent with the performance of their day-to-day operations and the continuous operation of the Companies and their Subsidiaries in the Ordinary Course of Business, the Companies shall cause the employees and officers of the Companies and their Subsidiaries to use their reasonable best efforts to assist Purchaser in planning for a successful integration after the Closing, (c) the Companies (prior to the Closing) and the Sellers (prior to and following the Closing) shall use their reasonable best efforts to assist Purchaser in obtaining any Permits, including executing such documents as may be reasonably required in connection therewith and (d) the Companies shall, and shall cause each of their Subsidiaries to, provide Purchaser and its authorized representatives with reasonable access during normal business hours to the facilities of the Companies and their Subsidiaries, their personnel and representatives, and the Books and Records (including all interim financial statements).

7.3

Employees and Employee Benefits.

(a) Purchaser agrees that to the extent any employee of either Company is entitled to participate in any benefit or profit sharing plan of Purchaser or any of its Affiliates, such employee shall receive credit for service with the Company prior to the Closing for purposes of eligibility and vesting. Purchaser also agrees that for a period of twelve (12) months after the Closing, Purchaser and the Companies shall continue to provide each of the Companies’ employees, during their employment with either Company, with salary and benefits which, in the aggregate, are substantially the same as those to which such employee was entitled immediately prior to the Closing; provided, however, that such benefits may be provided in a different form than provided prior to the Closing; and further provided that Purchaser shall retain the discretion at any time during such twelve (12) month period to cause employees of either Company to participate in any benefit plan of Purchaser or its Affiliates on the same basis as similarly situated employees of Purchaser and its Affiliates. Furthermore, from and after the Closing, Purchaser shall honor and shall be obligated to perform, in accordance with their terms, all contractual obligations under any employment agreements, severance agreements or similar arrangements entered into between either Company and any employee, and any severance policies or similar arrangements established for the benefit of any such employee(s), it being understood that nothing herein shall be construed as restricting the ability of Purchaser and the Companies from terminating or amending any such agreement, arrangement or policy in accordance with its terms as in effect immediately prior to the date hereof. An employee of either Company whose employment is involuntarily terminated (other than for cause) within twelve (12) months following the Closing, shall be entitled to receive severance payments and severance benefits which shall be no less favorable in the aggregate than those provided pursuant to any severance/separation policy covering such employee and in existence immediately prior to the date hereof.

(b) As of the Closing Date, the participation of the employees of the Companies who participate in the Rentokil Initial USA Deferred Compensation Plan or the Rentokil Initial USA Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (collectively, the “Deferred Compensation Plans”) as of the Closing Date (the “Affected Participants”) shall be frozen, and no further deferrals, contributions or accruals shall be made to the Deferred Compensation Plans on behalf of such Affected Participants with respect to periods of service with the Companies following the Closing. For all periods following the Closing Date, Purchaser agrees to cooperate with Sellers in Sellers’ administration of the Deferred Compensation Plans, which shall continue to be sponsored and maintained by the Sellers following the Closing, with respect to accounts of the Affected Participants, including to notify Sellers as soon as reasonably practicable (and in any event within sixty (60) days) following the termination of employment for any reason (including death or disability) of any Affected Participant with either Company or a successor entity or the transfer of the employment of such Affected Participant to an Affiliate of the Purchaser, and to provide such other information as Sellers may reasonably request. The obligations under this Section 7.3(b) shall continue until the accounts of all Affected Participants have been distributed, at which time Seller shall notify Purchaser of such fact. Without affecting the obligations of Purchaser under the preceding provisions of this Section 7.3(b), the parties understand that from and after the Closing Date, Sellers shall be solely responsible for the payment of all amounts due and owing to Affected Participants under the Deferred Compensation Plans, and Purchaser and the Companies shall have no responsibilities therefor.

(c) Nothing in this Section 7.3 shall apply to employees whose terms and conditions of employment are governed by a collective bargaining agreement.

Insurance Matters.

(a) The Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that, effective at the Closing, the Business shall cease to be insured by the Sellers’ and their Affiliates’ insurance policies, including under insurance policies of the Sellers and their Affiliates covering the Business for claims arising out of occurrences prior to the Closing Date.

(b) Subject to Section 11.3(b) of this Agreement (solely with respect to the Purchaser’s obligation to make the payments described therein), from and after the Closing, the Sellers shall assume all Liability associated with and managerial responsibility for, and none of the Purchaser, the Companies or the Subsidiaries shall have any Liability for or responsibility to manage or defend, any Proceeding or other claim with respect to the Business, the subject matter of which is within the scope of coverage of any insurance policy purchased by Sellers or their Affiliates (including the Companies and the Subsidiaries) prior to Closing, which claim is in existence at the Closing or to the extent (and only to the extent) that such claim arises from any event or circumstance taking place or existing prior to the Closing (the “Pre-Closing Insurance Claims”).

(c) Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to notify Seller promptly in writing upon receipt by Purchaser of notice of any pending or threatened Pre-Closing Insurance Claims for which Seller may or would be liable pursuant to Section 11.2(d) of this Agreement. In connection with such Pre-Closing Insurance Claims, Purchaser shall cooperate with the Sellers as Sellers or its counsel may reasonably require, including, without limitation, with respect to the following matters: (i) defense of claims and mitigation of damages, (ii) investigation of claims by any third party administrator thereof, (iii) the preservation of relevant documentation, including electronic documents, and physical evidence, (iv) making the employees of Purchaser and the Companies available for depositions and for trial, (v) the preparation and filing of documents submitted in court and alternative dispute resolution proceedings, (vi) worker’s compensation claims, and (vii) access to employment records, wage information, accident and incident investigation reports and photographs related to any such claims. The failure of Purchaser to comply with any of its obligations under this Section 7.5(c) shall not relieve the Sellers of any obligations that it may have under Section 11.2(d) of this Agreement, except to the extent (and then only to the extent) the Sellers are prejudiced thereby.

(d) Subject to the parties’ obligations under Section 11.2(d) and 11.3(b) of this Agreement, as applicable, with respect to any claims or losses for which Sellers are retaining liability under this Section 7.5, Sellers shall be entitled to retain any and all monetary recoveries related to such retained liability, including, but not limited to, any refunds owed by virtue of overpayment by any claims administrator, subrogation recoveries, second injury fund recoveries, recoveries from indemnifications, defenses and contribution, third party claims, counterclaims, and cross claims. In the event that such monetary recoveries are paid to or otherwise received by Sellers, Sellers shall be entitled to retain them. In the event that such monetary recoveries are paid to or otherwise received by Purchaser, Purchaser shall remit such monetary recoveries to Sellers as soon as practicable; provided that, in the event that Purchaser does not remit such monetary recoveries to Sellers with thirty (30) days of the receipt thereof, Purchaser shall pay to Sellers, in addition to such monetary recoveries, interest at the sum of the prime rate plus one percent, calculated from the date of receipt of such monetary recoveries.

ARTICLE 8

(b) If any Third Party Claim referred to in Section 11.4(a) is brought against an Indemnified Party and it gives notice to the Indemnifying Party of such claim, the Indemnifying Party will be entitled to participate in any Proceeding underlying the claim and, to the extent that it wishes (unless the Indemnifying Party is also a party to such Proceeding and the Indemnified Party determines in good faith that joint representation would be inappropriate, in which event such Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, one separate counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnifying Party, to defend such claim on behalf of such Indemnified Party), assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and, after notice from the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party of its election to assume the defense of such Proceeding and an acknowledgement by the Indemnifying Party that it would have an indemnity obligation for any Damages resulting from such Third-Party Claim, except in the circumstances described in the parenthetical above, the Indemnifying Party will not, as long as it diligently conducts such defense, be liable to the Indemnified Party under this Section 11.4 for any fees of other counsel or any other expenses with respect to the defense of such claim, in each case subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense of such claim, other than reasonable costs of investigation. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of the Third Party Claim, (i) no compromise or settlement of such claim may be effected by the Indemnifying Party without the Indemnified Party’s written consent unless (A) there is no finding or admission of any violation of Law or Order or any violation of the rights of any Person, (B) such settlement or compromise releases the Indemnified Party in connection with such Third Party Claim, (C) the sole relief provided is monetary damages that are paid in full by the Indemnifying Party and there is no adverse effect or limitation on the Indemnified Party with respect to Taxes or Tax accounting methods or practices and (D) such settlement or compromise does not require any payment or other action by, or limitation on, the Indemnified Party; (ii) the Indemnified Party will have no Liability with respect to any compromise or settlement of such claim effected without its written consent and (iii) the Indemnified Party shall have the right (but not the duty) to participate in such defense and to employ counsel, in each case, at its own expense. Subject to Section 11.4(c), if notice is given to an Indemnifying Party of any Third Party Claim and the Indemnifying Party does not, within twenty (20) days after the Indemnified Party’s notice is given, give notice to the Indemnified Party of its election to assume the defense of such Proceeding, the Indemnifying Party will be bound by any determination made in such Proceeding or any compromise or settlement effected by the Indemnified Party (provided that such determination shall not affect the Indemnifying Party’s rights to dispute whether the Indemnifying Party is obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Party with respect to such determination in accordance with this Agreement).

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Indemnified Party determines in good faith that there is a reasonable probability that a Proceeding may adversely affect it or its Affiliates other than as a result of monetary damages for which it would be entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, the Indemnified Party may, by notice to the Indemnifying Party, assume the exclusive right to defend, compromise, or settle such Proceeding, but the Indemnifying Party will not be bound by any determination of a Proceeding so defended or any compromise or settlement effected without its consent (which may not be unreasonably withheld).

(d) The Parties shall cooperate in the defense of any Third-Party Claim and shall furnish such records, information and testimony, and attend such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials and appeals as may be reasonably requested in connection with the provisions of this Article 11.

(e) Any indemnification claim relating to Tax matters involving third parties shall be governed by Section 12.2 of this Agreement.

11.5

Indemnification Procedure for Other Claims.

In the event any Indemnified Party should have a claim against any Indemnifying Party under Article 11 that does not involve a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall deliver a Claim Notice to the Indemnifying Party promptly following the Indemnified Party becoming aware of the same. The failure by any Indemnified Party to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability that it may have to such Indemnified Party under Article 11, except to the extent (and only to the extent) the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced thereby.

11.6

Limitations on Indemnification.

(a) The Sellers will have no liability for indemnification until the total of all Damages that are incurred by Purchaser Indemnified Parties exceed US$750,000 (the “Basket”), and then only for the amount by which such Damages exceed US$750,000. The Sellers’ maximum liability for Damages with respect to a claim for indemnification shall be limited to and shall not exceed US$15 million in the aggregate.

(b) Purchaser will have no liability for indemnification until the total of all Damages that are incurred by the Seller Indemnified Parties exceed US$750,000, and then only for the amount by which such Damages exceed US$750,000. Purchaser’s maximum liability for Damages with respect to a claim for indemnification shall be limited to and shall not exceed US$15 million in the aggregate.

(c) The limitations contained in this Section 11.6 shall not apply to (i) any Damages resulting from any breaches by the Sellers of any representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, or 3.4(a) or 3.9, (ii) any Damages resulting from any breaches by the Purchaser of any representations and warranties set forth in Sections 4.1 or 4.2, (iii) Damages relating to or arising from any intentional breach of this Agreement or fraudulent misrepresentations or action by the Parties hereto, (iv) indemnification pursuant to Section 11.2 (other than pursuant to 11.2(a)), and (v) any indemnification for any obligation of Purchaser set forth in Article 2, Section 5.6 or Section 11.3(c).

11.7

Insurance Offset.

If the amount of any indemnifiable Damages, at any time following the payment of an indemnification obligation, is offset or reduced by the payment of any insurance proceeds, the amount of such insurance proceeds, less any costs, expenses, premiums or taxes incurred in connection therewith (including but not limited to any future increase in insurance premiums, retroactive premiums, costs associated with any loss of insurance and replacement thereof or self-insured component of such insurance coverage) will promptly be repaid to the Indemnifying Party.

11.8

Exclusivity.

After the Closing, to the extent permitted by Law, the indemnities set forth in this Article 11 shall be the exclusive remedies of Purchaser and the Sellers and their respective managers, trustees, officers, directors, employees, agents and Affiliates for any misrepresentation, breach of warranty or nonfulfillment or failure to be performed of any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement, and the Parties shall not be entitled to a rescission of this Agreement; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply to claims of actual fraud or intentional breach of this Agreement.

11.9

Investigation and Waiver.

The right to indemnification or other remedy based on the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements herein will not be affected by any investigation conducted with respect to, or any knowledge acquired at any time, whether before or after the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the Closing, with respect to the accuracy or inaccuracy of or compliance with, any such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement. The waiver of any condition based on the accuracy of any representation or warranty, or on the performance of or compliance with any covenant or agreement, will not affect the right to indemnification or other remedy based on such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement.

ARTICLE 12

TAXES

12.1

Taxes

(a) The Seller shall, in accordance with applicable Law, duly and timely prepare and file all Tax Returns with respect to the Companies and the Subsidiaries for all periods ending on or prior to the Closing Date, and all such Tax Returns shall correctly and accurately set forth the amount of any Taxes relating to the applicable period; provided, however, that the Purchaser shall, in accordance with applicable Law, duly and timely prepare and file all non-income Tax Returns with respect to the Companies and their Subsidiaries for Straddle Periods (the "Straddle Period Tax Returns") and all such Tax Returns shall correctly and accurately set forth the amount of any Taxes relating to the applicable period. The Sellers and the Purchaser shall provide each other with such information and cooperation as may reasonably be required to complete such Tax Returns. The Purchaser shall provide Seller with a copy of any Straddle Period Tax Returns, for their review and comment, no later than thirty (30) days prior to the due date for filing such Tax Returns.

(b) The Sellers will timely pay or cause to be paid all Taxes imposed on or assessed against the Companies, the Subsidiaries, and the Seller with respect to all Pre-Closing Periods, whether or not set forth on any Tax Return provided, however, that Purchaser shall be liable for (i) all Taxes shown on the Straddle Period Tax Returns , and (ii) all Transfer Taxes.

12.2

Indemnification Procedure for Tax Matters.

With respect to any indemnification claim for Tax matters under this Agreement, the following procedures and limitations shall apply:

(a) Purchaser shall give the Sellers written notice, by certified mail addressed to Chris Filby at the Principal Seller’s notice address, that a Tax Return of any Company or its Subsidiary is subject to audit (“Audit Notice”) within twenty (20) days after receipt of any notification that a Governmental Authority intends to audit any such Tax Return for which an assessment of Taxes with respect to such Tax Return could result in a right of Purchaser to indemnification hereunder from Sellers with respect to such Taxes (“Indemnified Taxes”); provided however, the failure to notify the Sellers will not relieve the Sellers of any Liability that they may have to Purchaser, except to the extent that the Sellers demonstrates that the Sellers have been materially prejudiced by the Sellers’ failure to receive such notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any audit involving Pre-Closing Period Taxes, Purchaser shall provide Sellers with copies of all written correspondence relating to such audit received from, and a written summary of any oral communication regarding such audit with, any Governmental Authority within fifteen (15) days of such correspondence or communication, and Sellers shall have the right to provide Purchaser with input as to the resolution of any issues raised by the Governmental Authority with respect to items that, if adjusted on the applicable Tax Return(s), would result in a right of Purchaser to indemnification for Taxes by Sellers.

(b) Sellers shall have the right, exercised by written notice to Purchaser given within twenty (20) days after receipt of the Audit Notice, to assume the defense of the proposed audit or review insofar as it relates to a matter for which Sellers have agreed to indemnify Purchaser (“Assumed Audit”). Delivery of such notice shall constitute Sellers’ agreement to consent, defend, litigate or settle any claim resulting from the Assumed Audit, and to pay any assessment or adjustment resulting from the Assumed Audit, and all expenses incurred by Sellers in connection therewith. Purchaser shall have the right to participate at its own expense in any such contest, defense, litigation or settlement. Sellers shall have the right to settle any such assessment, either before or after the initiation of litigation, at such times and upon such terms as they deem fair and reasonable, provided that at least twenty (20) days prior to any such settlement, written notice of their intention to settle such assessment, and a copy of the proposed settlement shall be given to Purchaser and, provided further, that no settlement or other action may be taken by the Sellers in connection with the Assumed Audit if it may have an adverse effect or limitation on the Purchaser with respect to Taxes or Tax accounting methods or principles, without the consent of the Purchaser. After Sellers assume defense of an Assumed Audit, Purchaser shall not execute any agreement, form or document in connection with or with respect to the Assumed Audit, or related proposed adjustment, assessment, or request for extension of the statute of limitations unless instructed in writing by Sellers to execute such agreement, form or document, and, upon reasonable request by Sellers.

(c) If Sellers fail to notify Purchaser of its assumption of such defense within twenty (20) days after receipt of the Audit Notice, Purchaser shall have the responsibility of contesting, defending, litigating, or settling any assessment made by a Governmental Authority relating to the noticed audit or review. Sellers shall have the right to participate at their own expense in any such contest, defense, litigation or settlement. Purchaser shall have the exclusive right, in its discretion exercised in good faith and upon the advice of counsel, to settle any such assessment, either before or after the initiation of litigation, at such times and upon such terms as it deems fair and reasonable, provided that at least fifteen (15) days prior to any such settlement written notice of its intention to settle such assessment and a copy of the proposed settlement shall be given to Seller.

12.3

Purchase Price Allocation

(a) Purchaser and Sellers shall allocate the total consideration (as determined for United States federal income Tax purposes) for the Security Interests and the Initial Interests among the assets of Security Services and Initial Security and the noncompetition provisions of this Agreement for purposes of Sections 755 and 1060 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) (the “Allocation”). Except as may be required by a “determination” (within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code or any similar state or local tax provision), neither the Purchaser nor the Sellers (nor any of their respective Affiliates) shall file any Tax Return or take a position with a taxing authority that is inconsistent with the Allocation, including any amendments.

(b) Purchaser shall present a draft of the Allocation (the “Proposed Allocation”) to the Sellers for review as soon as reasonably practicable after the Closing Date. Except as provided in subparagraphs (i) and (ii) of this Section 12.3, at the close of business on the 51^st day after delivery of the Proposed Allocation, the Proposed Allocation shall become binding upon Purchaser and Sellers and shall be the Allocation.

(i) The Sellers shall raise any objection to the Proposed Allocation in writing within 50 days of the delivery of the Proposed Allocation. The Sellers and Purchaser shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any differences for 30 days after delivery of any objection by the Sellers. If the Purchaser and the Sellers reach written agreement amending the Proposed Allocation, the Proposed Allocation, as amended by such written agreement, shall become binding upon Sellers and Purchaser and shall be the Allocation.

(ii) If Sellers and Purchaser cannot mutually agree on the appropriate allocation within the 30-day time limit set forth in subparagraph (i) above, the Purchaser and Sellers shall submit all remaining disputes to a United States nationally recognized independent public accounting firm agreed upon by the parties for resolution. Purchaser and Sellers shall use reasonable efforts to cause the accountants to resolve such disputes within 20 days of its appointment, and the accountant's determination with respect to any such disputed item shall be final and binding. The fees and expenses of the accountant incurred under this section shall be paid 50% by Sellers and 50% by Purchaser.

(c) In the event that there is any adjustment to the aggregate consideration for the Companies, the Purchaser shall revise the Allocation to reflect any such adjustment using the same methodology as used in the initial Allocation and shall promptly present a draft of such revised Allocation to the Sellers for review; provided that the principles contained in paragraphs (a) and (b) above (including the right of the Sellers to raise any objection to the proposed revised Allocation and to have such objection resolved by the accountant) shall apply to such revised Allocation.

12.4

Refunds

(a) Any Tax refunds that are received by the Purchaser or the Companies that relate solely to the Companies or their Subsidiaries for Tax periods or portions thereof ending on or before the Effective Date shall be for the account of the Sellers, and Purchaser shall pay over the amount of any such refund within fifteen (15) days after receipt of entitlement thereto. Any Tax refunds that are received by the Purchaser or the Companies that relate solely to the Companies or their Subsidiaries for the period commencing on the Effective Date and ending on the Closing Date, to the extent the Sellers have paid, or otherwise borne, the Tax which is the subject of the Tax refund, then such refund shall be for the account of the Sellers, and Purchaser shall pay over the amount of any such refund within fifteen (15) days after receipt or entitlement thereto. Any Tax refunds received by Sellers that relate to (i) Tax periods or portions thereof on or after the Closing Date of Taxes paid by the Purchaser, the Companies or their Subsidiaries, (ii) the Tax period or portion thereof commencing on the Effective Date and ending on the Closing Date, of Taxes paid or otherwise borne by the Purchaser or (iii) Transfer Taxes, shall be paid over to the Purchaser within fifteen (15) days after the receipt or entitlement thereto.

ARTICLE 13

(e) by the Sellers, by written notice to Purchaser, at any time after September 30, 2006 (or such later date as shall have been agreed to in writing by the parties) if any of the conditions provided for in Article 10 of this Agreement have not been met (other than through the failure of the Sellers to comply with their respective obligations under this Agreement); or

If this Agreement is validly terminated pursuant to Section 13.1, this Agreement will forthwith become null and void, and there will be no liability or obligation on the part of the Parties (or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents or other representatives or Affiliates), except that the provisions with respect to expenses in Article 8 and Section 15.3, confidentiality in Section 15.5 and public announcements in Section 15.4 will continue to apply following any such termination. Notwithstanding the previous sentence, no party to this Agreement shall be released from any liability for any intentional breach of this Agreement or fraudulent misrepresentations or action by the Parties.

ARTICLE 14

RIGHTS TO CERTAIN NAMES AND MARKS

(a) The Sellers expressly reserve to themselves and their post-Closing Affiliates the exclusive right, title, and ownership interest in and to and the use of, and it is hereby agreed and acknowledged that the Sellers and their post-Closing Affiliates shall be entitled exclusively to such rights with respect to, the Retained Names and any related Intellectual Property and goodwill now or previously used or owned by any Seller or any of their respective Affiliates in connection with its business, whether used or owned by themselves or as part of or in conjunction with another word or phrase. In furtherance of the foregoing, at Closing, the Companies shall execute and deliver to Sellers the Assignment of Retained Names in substantially the form of Exhibit C attached hereto, whereby the Companies will assign their entire right, title and interest in and to the Retained Names and any related Intellectual Property and goodwill to the Sellers.

(b) Subject to Section 14(c) below, the Purchaser shall not use and shall cause its Affiliates (including, after Closing, the Companies) to not use any Retained Name or related mark or any names similar thereto (or any related Intellectual Property).

(c) Each of Purchaser, its subsidiaries, the Companies and Subsidiaries is authorized, by way of a royalty free license from the Principal Seller (on its own behalf or on behalf of the relevant Affiliate), for a maximum period of twelve (12) months following Closing (or such longer period as may be necessary to allow Purchaser to comply with all requirements of state and local licensing agencies applicable to altering the name under which the Business is conducted (the “Post-Closing Licensing Matters”)), to use in the ordinary course of business any Retained Name or related marks or related Intellectual Property of the Principal Seller or any of its Affiliates (including, without limitation, on paper, stationery, brochures, promotional materials, vehicles, premises, fixed or moveable plant, uniforms or otherwise, whether such items exist at Closing or are produced thereafter), provided that a reasonable level of quality is maintained for the goods and services in connection with which the Retained Names are used. Purchaser shall use reasonable efforts to resolve any Post-Closing Licensing Matters as promptly as practicable following the Closing.

(d) The Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that any goodwill arising from the use by Purchaser, either of the Companies or the Subsidiaries of any Retained Name or related marks or related Intellectual Property prior to or after the Closing inures to the benefit of the Principal Seller or one or more of its Affiliates and the Purchaser acknowledges, agrees and undertakes that it and each of the Companies and the Subsidiaries shall have no, and shall make no, claim to any goodwill which may arise from the use by Purchaser or any of the Companies or Subsidiaries of the Retained Names or related marks or related Intellectual Property in accordance with Section 14(c) and any and all such use shall be deemed to be use by the Principal Seller or one or more of its Affiliates and shall inure to the benefit of the Principal Seller or one or more of its Affiliates.

(e) The Purchaser shall indemnify the Principal Seller, for itself and as trustee for each of its Affiliates, against any and all liabilities, losses, charges, costs, claims or demands arising out of the use by the Purchaser, the Companies or any of their Affiliates from and after the Closing of any Retained Name or related marks or related Intellectual Property to the extent not in accordance with Section 14(c).
