The closing of this transaction occurred on November 14, 2014.  Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, GSE Power paid the Sellers $3 million, in cash, at closing(subject to adjustment based on a subsequent determination of the actual working capital of Hyperspring at closing).  In addition, GSE Power may be required, pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, to pay the Sellers up to an additional $8.4 million if Hyperspring attains certain EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) targets for the three-year period ending November 13, 2017.  In the Purchase Agreement, Hyperspring provided customary representations and warranties regarding its financial statements, operations, assets and liabilities and employment related matters, among other things.  The Sellers are required to indemnify GSE against breaches of their representations, warranties and covenants or for any tax claims or claims of certain identified creditors, up to 25% of the purchase price for most representations and warranties, but up to the full purchase price for certain fundamental representations and warranties.  The Purchase Agreement also provides that the Sellers will not compete with Hyperspring business for a period of five years following the closing, provided that if a Seller is fired, the non-compete is modified during the 4th and 5th years of the non-compete to allow that Seller to work for former clients of the Hyperspring. GSE entered into employment agreements with three of the four Sellers in order to retain their services with Hyperspring following the acquisition. 

In connection with the Hyperspring acquisition, GSE Power also invested $250,000 in IntelliQlik, LLC, a Delaware Limited Liability Company ("IntelliQlik") in exchange for a 50% interest in IntelliQlik pursuant to the terms of the Operating Agreement, dated as of November 14, 2014, between GSE Power and Dale Jennings, one of the former owners of Hyperspring.  GSE Power is obligated to contribute an additional $250,000 to IntelliQlik upon the attainment by IntelliQlik of certain milestones on or before September 15, 2015.  A copy of the Operating Agreement is attached as Exhibit 2.2 to this Form 8-K.

ACQUIRES HYPERSPRING, LLC AND INVESTS IN INTELLIQLIK, LLC

· Revenue of $7.8 million compared to $11.9 million in Q3 2013.

· Gross profit of $2.5 million, or 31.4% of revenues, compared to gross profit of $3.1 million, or 25.9% of revenues, in Q3 2013.

· Net loss of $1.9 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $1.0 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, in Q3 2013.

At September 30, 2014

· Total cash and equivalents of $16.0 million, or $0.90 per diluted share.

Sykesville, MD – November [17], 2014 - GSE Systems, Inc. ("GSE" or "the Company") (NYSE MKT: GVP), a global energy services solutions provider, today announced financial results for the third quarter ("Q3") ended September 30, 2014.  The Company also announced the acquisition of Hyperspring, LLC and investment in IntelliQlik, LLC through its operating subsidiary, GSE Power Systems, Inc.

Jim Eberle, Chief Executive Officer of GSE, said, "Our Q3 2014 results reflected the completion of the Slovakia simulator project in April 2014, the completion of several large projects in 2013, and continuing delays in capital expenditures by fossil fuel companies, especially with respect to coal-fired power plants.  However, we are very encouraged by our strengthening backlog, which increased by 27% from June 30, 2014 to $45.7 million at September 30, 2014.  During Q3 2014, we generated $17.6 million of new business across a broad range of sectors and geographies, bringing our nine-month year-to-date order total to $33.5 million.  These newly-awarded Q3 2014 projects will contribute to our results starting in Q4 2014 and continuing through 2015.  Our balance sheet remains strong, with approximately $16 million of cash and equivalents at quarter-end and no long-term debt.  We believe that we are well positioned for a resumption in growth, especially as industry capital expenditure programs return to more normalized levels."

Q3 2014 RESULTS

Q3 2014 revenue declined 34.2% to $7.8 million from $11.9 million in Q3 2013.  The decrease in revenue was mainly caused by a $3.7 million decline in revenue from the $36.6 million Slovakia simulator project, which was completed and entered warranty in April 2014.  In addition, revenue generated from fossil fuel simulation projects decreased by $0.6 million in Q3 2014 as compared to Q3 2013, the result of the completion of several large projects in 2013 and continued sluggishness in capital spending by fossil fuel utilities.

Gross profit in Q3 2014 was $2.5 million, or 31.4% of revenue, as compared to $3.1 million, or 25.9% of revenue, in Q3 2013.

Sales, general & administrative expenses in Q3 2014 rose 11.0% to $4.2 million from $3.8 million in Q3 2013.  This increase was primarily due to higher software product development expenses and severance costs related to our U.S. operations.

Operating loss for Q3 2014 was $1.9 million compared to an operating loss of $0.9 million in Q3 2013.

Net loss for Q3 2014 was $1.9 million, or $0.11 per basic and diluted share, compared to a net loss of $1.0 million, or $0.06 per basic and diluted share, in Q3 2013.

The EBITDA (Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) loss for Q3 2014 was $1.7 million compared to an EBITDA loss of $0.9 million in Q3 2013.

Backlog at September 30, 2014 rose to $45.7 million from $36.1 million at June 30, 2014.

GSE's cash position at September 30, 2014 was $16.0 million, excluding $4.2 million of restricted cash, as compared to $18.1 million, excluding $1.0 million of restricted cash, at June 30, 2014.  In accordance with an amendment to the Company's Master Loan and Security Agreement with Susquehanna Bank, an additional $3.1 million was placed in a restricted cash account in September 2014 as collateral for the Company's outstanding letters of credit.

HYPERSPRING ACQUISITION AND INVESTMENT IN INTELLIQLIK LLC

Hyperspring, LLC specializes in staff augmentation, training and development, and plant operations support services, primarily in the United States nuclear industry.  In conjunction with the Hyperspring acquisition, GSE Power also acquired a 50% interest in IntelliQlik, LLC, which is developing a software platform for online learning and learning management for the energy market.

Mr. Eberle commented, "These transactions will help lay the foundation for GSE's development into a Human and Plant Performance Improvement Company, the next step in our evolution as a global energy services solutions provider.  Through these transactions, GSE will consolidate powerful industry-leading educational tools into a single online training and learning management platform that will allow us to meet a significant unmet need for specialized workforce training in the energy sector.  IntelliQlik will combine GSE's 3D visualization and simulation competencies with Hyperspring's expertise in training, staffing and operations support, enabling us to improve workforce performance, raise productivity and lower costs for our clients.  We expect the launch of IntelliQlik's next-generation learning programs, including Nuclear University, Power Systems University, Gas Turbine University and Oil and Gas University, to occur in 2015."

Additional details regarding this transaction can be found in a separate press release issued by GSE on November 17, 2014.

EBITDA Reconciliation

EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP").  Management believes EBITDA, in addition to operating profit, net income and other GAAP measures, is useful to investors to evaluate the Company's results because it excludes certain items that are not directly related to the Company's core operating performance. Investors should recognize that EBITDA might not be comparable to similarly-titled measures of other companies.  This measure should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for or superior to, any measure of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.  A reconciliation of EBITDA to the most directly comparable GAAP measure in accordance with SEC Regulation G follows:

ARTICLE II.  SALE OF MEMBERSHIP INTERESTS

2.1.Sale of Membership Interests.  At the Closing, Sellers shall sell, transfer, assign, convey and deliver to Purchaser, and Purchaser shall purchase, accept and acquire from Sellers, all of the Interests, free and clear of any and all liens, encumbrances, pledges, security interest or defects in title.

2.2.Excluded Assets.  Notwithstanding any provision contained herein to the contrary, Sellers shall retain ownership of those items of property, real or personal, tangible or intangible, not related to the Business and specifically set forth on Exhibit B (collectively, the "Excluded Assets").

2.3.Purchase Price and Earn-out: Payment.

(a) The purchase price for the Interests shall be Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000.00) (the "Base Price"), subject to the Working Capital adjustment set forth below, plus (i) any Earn-out Payments earned under subsection 2.3(e) plus (ii) up to One Million Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,200,000.00) (the "Remainder") as and to the extent it becomes due and payable under Section 2.3(g) (collectively, the "Purchase Price").  On the Closing Date, the parties intend that the Company will have adequate working capital to operate the Business in the ordinary course of business which the parties have agreed is Five Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($550,000) (the "Target Working Capital").  The Base Price shall be: (i) decreased by the aggregate amount of any shortfall in the Closing Date Net Working Capital, as defined below, in comparison to the Target Net Working Capital, or (ii) increased by any excess in the Closing Date Net Working Capital over the Target Net Working Capital.  The indebtedness listed on Schedule 2.3(a) (as adjusted through the Closing Date for changes in outstanding principal or interest) shall be paid off or retired at Closing in full from the Estimated Purchase Price, as defined below, otherwise payable to Seller (the "Closing Pay-offs").  The liabilities related to the Closing Pay-offs shall be reflected in the Closing Date Balance Sheet referred to below such that such amounts shall not be "double counted" in determining the Estimated Purchase Price.  In addition, to the extent Estimated Working Capital less Closing Pay-offs exceeds Target Working Capital, Sellers shall use the amount of the excess to pay Buyer at Closing, effected as a reduction to the Estimated Purchase Price, an amount equal to the lesser of: (a) 50% of the DTL or (b) the amount of the excess.  The DTL shall be reduced by the amount paid by Sellers pursuant to the foregoing sentence.

7

(b)

(i) An estimated balance sheet (the "Estimated Closing Date Balance Sheet") of the Business as of September 27, 2014, prepared in good faith by Sellers, on an accrual basis, which sets forth the estimated Net Working Capital as of September 27, 2014 (the "Estimated Net Working Capital"), is attached hereto as Exhibit F.  "Net Working Capital" means, with respect to the balance sheet of the Business as of the relevant balance sheet date, (x) the sum of the current assets (consisting of cash, accounts receivable, net of reserve for uncollectible accounts, accrued revenue and pre-paid expenses) of the Business minus (y) the sum of the current liabilities of the Business (accounts payable, accrued salary, accrued vacation, accrued bonus and any other accrued expenses).  The parties shall determine Net Working Capital in a manner consistent with the methodology used to prepare Exhibit E, attached hereto, which the parties have provided for illustration as if the Closing had occurred on September 27, 2014.

(ii) The "Estimated Purchase Price" shall be the Base Price as (A) decreased by the aggregate amount of any shortfall in the Estimated Net Working Capital in comparison to the Target Net Working Capital, or (B) increased by any excess in the Estimated Net Working Capital over the Target Net Working Capital.

(iii) As soon as practicable following the Closing, but in no event later than sixty (60) days following the Closing Date, Purchaser shall in good faith prepare or cause to be prepared and delivered to Sellers a balance sheet of the Business as of the Closing Date (the "Closing Date Balance Sheet"), which shall set forth a calculation of the Net Working Capital of the Business as of the Closing Date.  The Closing Date Balance Sheet shall be calculated and prepared in accordance with GAAP applied on a basis consistent with the principles, practices and methodologies used in the preparation of the Estimated Closing Date Balance Sheet.

8

(iv) Within thirty (30) days after Purchaser's delivery of the Closing Date Balance Sheet, Sellers may deliver a written notice ("Challenge Notice") to Purchaser of any objections, and the basis therefor, which Sellers may have to the Closing Date Balance Sheet.  No Challenge Notice shall be effective unless a majority of the Sellers shall sign the Challenge Notice.  The failure of Sellers to deliver an effective Challenge Notice raising an objection to the Closing Date Balance Sheet within the prescribed time period will constitute acceptance by each Seller of the Closing Date Balance Sheet as delivered by Purchaser and a waiver of any objection or claim related thereto, regardless of whether such Seller individually objects to the Closing Date Balance Sheet.  During the thirty (30) days following Purchaser receipt of a Challenge Notice, Purchaser and Sellers shall attempt in good faith to resolve any disagreement with respect to the Closing Date Balance Sheet and the accuracy thereof.  If, at the end of such thirty (30) day period, Purchaser and Sellers shall have failed to resolve the disagreement specified in the Challenge Notice, the items in dispute shall be referred to an independent nationally or regionally recognized accounting firm (the "Arbitrator") as may be mutually agreed to by the parties or their respective independent accountants for final determination as soon as practicable, and in all events, such final determination to be made within thirty (30) days after submission to the Arbitrator.  Selection of the Arbitrator shall be made by the parties within 7 days of the end of the first thirty (30) day period; in the event that the parties are unable to agree upon the Arbitrator, the Arbitrator shall be chosen under the procedures set forth in the rules of the American Arbitration Association.  The provisions for resolution shall be specifically enforceable by the parties, and the determination of the Arbitrator in accordance with the provisions hereof shall be final and binding upon Purchaser and Sellers, with no right of appeal therefrom.  The fees and expenses of the Arbitrator shall be borne by Purchaser and Sellers in proportion to the difference between their respective calculations of the difference between Closing Date Net Working Capital and Estimated Net Working Capital, and the Arbitrator's final determination of Closing Date Net Working Capital.

(v) Within ten (10) days after the determination of the Net Working Capital of the Business as of the Closing Date, the "Closing Date Net Working Capital" (whether by agreement between Sellers and Purchaser or a decision of the Arbitrator pursuant to subsection (iv) above), the applicable amount set forth below shall be paid to the appropriate party, in accordance with the provisions of this subsection (v);

(A) If Closing Date Net Working Capital is less than the Estimated Net Working Capital, then Sellers shall pay the amount by which Closing Net Working Capital is less than the Estimated Net Working Capital to Purchaser; or

(B) If the Closing Date Net Working Capital is greater than the Estimated Net Working Capital, then Purchaser shall pay the amount by which the Closing Date Net Working Capital exceeds the Estimated Net Working Capital to Sellers.

(c) At the Closing, Buyer shall deliver:

9

(i) by wire transfer, the Estimated Purchase Price, less the Closing Pay-offs, less the amount offset against the DTL pursuant to Section 2.3(a);

(ii) by wire transfer, or if wire transfer instructions have not been provided, by check, the amount of the Closing Pay-offs to the respective creditors listed on Schedule 2.3(a); and

(iii) Such other documents are required by this Agreement.

(d) For each year during the three-year period commencing on the day after the Closing Date (the "Earnout Period"), Sellers will be entitled to receive an amount (an "Earnout Payment") as additional Purchase Price.

(i) For purposes of Section 2.3, "EBITDA" shall mean the Company's net income under GAAP, not including the Gross Profit derived by the Company through the referral by the Buyer of a single, significant new client or new project, as determined by Buyer ("Excluded Gross Profit"), plus expenses for interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization.  For purposes of calculating EBITDA, Buyer shall be charged $30,000 for accounting and regular, recurring legal fees and $45,000 for insurance (other than workers compensation insurance, which shall be based upon the actual amount attributable to the Company's activities).  "Earnout Multiplier" and "Maximum Earnout" shall mean those amounts determined according to the occurrence of certain events and the timing thereof, as set forth in the chart, below, and as further described in Section 2.3(g):

	Successful TVA Renewal1 - 2 Year Term		Successful TVA Renewal1 - 1 Year Term		No Successful TVA Renewal
Maximum Earnout	$	1,400,000	$	1,600,000	$	1,800,000
Earnout Multiplier		2.33		2.67		3.00

¹  As defined in Section 2.3(g), below.

(e)

(i) For each year during the Earnout Period, the Earnout Payment shall be equal to the Earnout Multiplier times the aggregate number of dollars by which the Company's EBITDA exceeds:  (A) in year one of the Earnout Period, the sum of $1,150,000 plus the DTL Adjustment; (B) in year two of the Earnout Period, the sum of $1,250,000 plus the DTL Adjustment; and (C) in year three of the Earnout Period, the sum of $1,350,000 plus the DTL Adjustment (each such sum an "Earnout Threshold"); provided, however, that:

10

(A) If Sellers are entitled to any Earnout Payment for the Earnout Period in question, the Earnout Payment shall be increased by an amount equal to 30% of Excluded Gross Profit for the Earnout Period to which the Earnout Payment relates, subject always to  the Maximum Earnout with respect to such Earnout Period;

(B) In the event of a Successful TVA Renewal for a term of less than two years, the Earnout Payment shall be calculated using the Maximum Earnout and Earnout Multiplier in the "Successful TVA Renewal -  1 Year Term" column in the chart above.  If the Company is able to achieve a subsequent and consecutive term extension that results in a total Successful TVA Renewal term of two years from the original expiration date of May 15, 2015, the Earnout Payment for the prior year shall be recalculated, using the Maximum Earnout and Earnout Multiplier applicable to a two year Successful TVA Renewal.  Any overpayment by Purchaser of the prior year Earnout Payment as a result of the recalculation shall be subtracted from the current year Earnout Payment, if any, to the extent thereof, with any amount not able to be so set off being due and payable by the Sellers within 15 days of Purchaser's demand therefor.  Any underpayment by Purchaser of a prior year Earnout Payment as a result of the recalculation shall be payable at the time the current year Earnout Payment (if any) is due.

(C) Sellers may be entitled to an Additional Earnout Payment under (iii) below.

(D) Any Earnout Payment shall be paid in the form of cash directly to Sellers within 60 days of the end of the Earnout Period year in which it was earned.

(ii)  In the event that the Company does not generate sufficient EBITDA for the Sellers to earn the Maximum Earnout payment in the first or second year of the Earnout Period, Sellers will have the opportunity to earn such unearned Earnout Payment in the second or third year of the Earnout Period as follows:  EBITDA generated by the Company in the second or third Earnout Period in excess of that amount of EBITDA that would result in payment of the Maximum Earnout to Sellers for such Earnout Period ("Excess EBITDA") shall be applied to EBITDA in prior years (including restoration of any losses in such prior years), starting with the earliest year for which the Maximum Earnout was not achieved (the amount of any one or more such reallocations of Excess EBITDA being referred to, in the aggregate, as the "Catch Up"), until each such prior Earnout Period's actual Earnout Payment equals the Maximum Earnout for such Earnout Period, after which any Excess EBITDA not applied as Catch Up shall be applied to the Additional Earnout Payment referenced immediately below.

11

(iii) In addition to the Earnout Payment under (i) above, for each of the three years in the Earnout Period, Sellers will be entitled to receive an additional earnout amount (the "Additional Earnout Payment") equal to 30% of the Company's EBITDA in excess of:  (i) in year one, the sum of $1,750,000 plus the DTL Adjustment, (ii) in year two, the sum of $1,850,000 plus the DTL Adjustment and (iii) in year three, the sum of $1,950,000 plus the DTL Adjustment  (each, an "Additional Earnout Threshold").  The Additional Earnout Payment shall be in addition to the Earnout Payment in the event that the Company's EBITDA exceeds the Additional Earnout Threshold in any year of the Earnout Period and shall be paid in the form of cash.  The maximum amounts which Sellers may receive as an Additional Earnout Payment will be $1,000,000 per Earnout Period.  Any amount of Excess EBITDA that is applied as a Catch Up as permitted by Section 2.3(e)(ii) above shall be excluded from EBITDA for purposes of determining whether the Additional Earnout Payment has been earned.

(iv)  For the purposes of calculating the Earnout Payment and the Additional Earnout Payment, the financial statements of the Company will be prepared on an accrual basis in accordance with GAAP.  Amounts payable for any year of the Earnout Period will be paid within 60 days of the end of the year of the Earnout Period in which it was earned.

(v)

(A) On or before the date which is thirty (30) days after the last day of each year of the Earnout Period, Purchaser shall prepare and deliver to Sellers a written statement (in each case, an "Earn-out Calculation Statement") setting forth in reasonable detail its determination of net income for the preceding calendar year and its calculation of the resulting Earnout Payment (in each case, an "Earnout Calculation").

12

(B) Sellers shall have thirty (30) days after receipt of the Earnout Calculation Statement for each year of the Earnout Period (in each case, the "Review Period") to review the Earnout Calculation Statement and the Earnout Calculation set forth therein. During the Review Period, Sellers shall have the right to inspect the Company's books and records during normal business hours at the Company's offices, upon reasonable prior notice and solely for purposes reasonably related to the determinations of net income and the resulting Earnout Payment. Prior to the expiration of the Review Period, Sellers may object to the Earnout Calculation set forth in the Earnout Calculation Statement for the applicable year of the Earnout Period by delivering a written notice of objection (an "Earnout Calculation Objection Notice") to Purchaser. No Earnout Calculation Objection Notice shall be effective unless a majority of the Sellers shall sign the Earnout Calculation Objection Notice.  Any Earn-out Calculation Objection Notice shall specify the items in the applicable Earnout Calculation disputed by Sellers and shall describe in reasonable detail the basis for such objection, as well as the amount in dispute.  Sellers shall be permitted to make and retain copies of the Company's books and records which relate to the reason(s) why Sellers submitted their Earnout Calculation Objection Notice.  If Sellers fail to deliver an Earnout Calculation Objection Notice to Purchaser prior to the expiration of the Review Period, then the Earnout Calculation set forth in the Earnout Calculation Statement shall be final and binding on the parties hereto, and each Seller shall be deemed to have waived any objection or claim related thereto, regardless of whether such Seller individually objects to the Earnout Calculation. If Sellers timely deliver an Earnout Calculation Objection Notice, Purchaser and Sellers shall negotiate in good faith in an attempt to resolve the disputed items and agree upon the resulting amount of the net income and the Earnout Payment for the applicable calendar year. If Purchaser and Sellers are unable to reach agreement within 10 days after such an Earnout Calculation Objection Notice has been given, all unresolved disputed items shall be promptly referred to an impartial nationally recognized firm of independent certified public accountants, other than Sellers' accountants or Purchaser's accountants, appointed by mutual agreement of Purchaser and Sellers (the "Independent Accountant"). The Independent Accountant shall be directed to render a written report on the unresolved disputed items with respect to the applicable Earnout Calculation as promptly as practicable, but in no event greater than 30 days after such submission to the Independent Accountant, and to resolve only those unresolved disputed items set forth in the Earnout Calculation Objection Notice. If unresolved disputed items are submitted to the Independent Accountant, Purchaser and Sellers shall each furnish to the Independent Accountant such work papers, schedules and other documents and information relating to the unresolved disputed items as the Independent Accountant may reasonably request. The Independent Accountant shall resolve the disputed items based solely on the applicable definitions and other terms in this Agreement and the presentations by Purchaser and Sellers, and not by independent review. The resolution of the dispute and the calculation of net income that is the subject of the applicable Earnout Calculation Objection Notice by the Independent Accountant shall be final and binding on the parties upon receipt of the Independent Accountant's written report. The fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant shall be borne by Sellers and Purchaser in proportion to the amounts by which their respective calculations of EBITDA  differ from EBITDA as finally determined by the Independent Accountant.

13

(vi) Any undisputed amount of Earnout Payment that Purchaser is required to pay to Sellers shall be paid in full, in cash, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, no later than 10 business days following the date upon which the Sellers either concur with the Earnings Statement or provide an Earnout Calculation Objection Notice.  If Sellers challenge the Earnout Calculation during the review period, any disputed portion of Earnout Payment determined to be due shall be paid in full, in cash, by wire transfer of immediately available funds,  no later than 10 days following the date up on which the determination of net income for the applicable calendar year becomes final and binding upon the parties as provided in Section 2.3(e)(v)(B)(ncluding any final resolution of any dispute raised by Sellers in an Earnout Calculation Objection Notice).

(vii) Purchaser shall have the right to withhold and set off against any amount otherwise due to be paid pursuant to this Section 2.3(e) any Losses to which any Purchaser's Indemnified Party may be entitled under Article VI. of this Agreement.

(f) Sellers have advised Purchaser that Sellers believe that the Company will receive a settlement from a claim made with respect to losses incurred due to the BP Oil spill (the "BP Oil Claim").  The Company and Sellers have agreed that the Sellers may retain the BP Oil Claim, and that it shall be an Excluded Asset for all purposes of this Agreement.

(g) The Company is in the process of renewing its contract with the Tennessee Valley Authority ("TVA").  If the Company is able to renew the TVA contract, for substantially the same scope and volume of services as currently being provided, and at a profit margin that is greater than 15%, on or before May 15, 2015 (a "Successful TVA Renewal"), and for one of the terms set forth below, the  Remainder will be paid to Sellers as follows:

14

(i) if the Successful TVA Renewal term is at least two years beyond May 15, 2015, Purchaser will pay Sellers 100% of the Remainder.

(ii) if the Successful TVA Renewal term is less than two years, but at least one year, beyond May 15, 2015, Purchaser will pay Sellers 50% of the Remainder; provided, however, if the Company is subsequently able to achieve an additional, Successful TVA Renewal that results in a total, consecutive Successful TVA Renewal term of at least two years from May 15, 2015, the Purchaser will pay Sellers the remaining 50% of the Remainder.

In all other events, the Remainder shall be 100% forfeited by Sellers.

2.4.Closing.  The Closing under this Agreement (the "Closing") shall be held on the date of this Agreement and shall be contingent on, and simultaneous with, the closing of the IQ Transaction. Such date on which the Closing is to be held is herein referred to as the "Closing Date."

(iii) releases of the Company, signed by Sellers, in the form of Exhibit C (the "Releases");

(iv) Sellers' deliveries as set forth on the Closing Agenda attached hereto as Exhibit A; and

(v) such other documents as Purchaser may reasonably request for the purpose of (X) evidencing the accuracy of Sellers' representations and warranties, (Y) evidencing the performance by Sellers of, or the compliance by Sellers with, any covenant or obligation required to be performed or complied with by Sellers, or (Z) otherwise facilitating the consummation or performance of any of the Transactions.

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

This Agreement is made as of the 28th day of July, 2014, between [Hyperspring, LLC], an Alabama limited liability company (the "Company") and __________, an adult individual ("Executive").

BACKGROUND

Executive is a former owner of the Hyperspring, LLC.  GSE Power Systems, Inc., a Delaware corporation, has purchased all of the outstanding interests of Hyperspring, LLC pursuant to a Membership Interests Purchase Agreement dated July 28, 2014 (the "Membership Purchase Agreement").  Ancillary to the Membership Purchase Agreement, the Company now desires to enter into an Employment Agreement with the Executive ("Agreement"), replacing any prior terms of employment between Hyperspring, LLC and Executive and setting forth the terms and conditions of Executive's employment with the Company.  The Executive desires to be employed by the Company, on the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto agree as follows:

AGREEMENT

1.Employment.  The Company hereby agrees to employ Executive for a fixed term, as more particularly set forth herein, and to provide Executive with certain benefits, in exchange for which Executive accepts the terms and conditions set forth herein governing his employment, including the restrictive covenants set forth herein.  Any previous terms of employment between Executive and Company are hereby replaced and superseded by this Agreement.

2.Term.  Executive's employment hereunder shall be for a term commencing on the date first written above and ending on July 27, 2017 (the "Term"); provided that such Term is subject to earlier termination as stated herein.

3.Compensation.

(a) Base Salary.  Executive will be paid an annual salary of two hundred thousand dollars ($200,000) (the "Salary"), subject to annual review and adjustment by the Company; provided that such base Salary shall not be reduced.  The Salary will be payable in equal periodic installments according to the Company's customary payroll practices, but no less frequently than monthly.

(b) Benefits.  Benefits for Executive will be the same, in the aggregate, as those provided by the Company to similarly situated Company executive officers as of the date hereof, including participation in such disability insurance, major medical, and other employee benefit plans, including vacation plans, of the Company that may be in effect from time to time, to the extent Executive is eligible under the terms of those plans (collectively, the "Benefits").

1

(c) Vacation Days.  Executive shall be entitled to 10 days of vacation each calendar year, with additional time to be provided as approved by Company, which shall be taken at such times as are mutually agreeable to the Executive and the Company's Board of Directors.  Unused vacation days shall not carry over from year to year, nor shall they have any cash value.

(d) Reservation of Right to Amend Benefit Plans.  Executive understands that from time to time it may be necessary for economic and business reasons for the Company to amend one or more of its benefit plans, which amendments may involve the increase, decrease or change of form of a benefit. Executive's employment pursuant to this Agreement shall be subject to any such amendments, and any such amendments applicable to all the Company's employees, or the specific class thereof of which Executive is a member, that impacts Executive's benefit package hereunder shall not be a breach of this Agreement by the Company.

4.Duties.  Executive shall serve as the _________ of the Company, reporting directly to the Company's Chief Executive Officer (the "Chief Executive Officer"), and have the normal duties, responsibilities and authority associated with such position including, without limitation, those set forth in Exhibit A attached and made a part hereof, as well as such duties (which are reasonably consistent with Executive's primary duties) as shall be assigned to him from time to time by the Chief Executive Officer and the Board of Directors.  Executive shall devote his entire working time and attention to the Company's business.  During the term of this Agreement, Executive shall not be employed by, or participate or engage in or be a part of in any manner the management or operations of any business enterprise other than the Company without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent may be granted or withheld in its sole discretion; provided, however, that Executive may, while he remains employed by the Company, participate in reasonable charitable, social, teaching, educational and civic activities, as well as industry trade groups and associations and personal investment activities, so long as such activities do not interfere with the performance of Executive's obligations under this Agreement.

5.Termination of Employment.

(a) Due To Death, Disability, For Cause or Without Good Reason.

(i) For Cause.  If Executive's employment shall be terminated by the Company for Cause, the Company shall pay Executive his Salary, pro-rata, through the date of termination at the rate in effect at the time of termination, any Benefits that have then vested or are otherwise owed to Executive, and the Company shall have no further obligation to Executive under this Agreement.  "Cause" shall mean:

(A) Executive's conviction of fraud or a serious felony or a crime involving embezzlement, conversion of property or moral turpitude;

(B) a breach by Executive of any of his fiduciary duties to the Company or its members;

2

(C) Executive's neglect or failure to discharge his duties, responsibilities or obligations under the Employment Agreement between Executive and the Company, provided, that Executive has been given notice and, within thirty (30) days from such notice, fails to cure the neglect or failure, or, if said neglect or failure cannot be cured within such period, within a reasonable time thereafter, if a diligent effort is being made to cure such neglect or failure, but in no event longer than sixty (60) days from the date of the notice;

(D) Executive's habitual drunkenness or substance abuse which materially interferes with Executive's ability to discharge his duties, responsibilities and obligations under any agreement between Executive and the Company, or

(E) Executive's failure to observe or comply with any governmental regulations whether as an officer, member or otherwise, in any material respect or in any manner which might reasonably have a material adverse effect in respect of the Company's ongoing business, operations, conditions, business relationships or properties.

(ii) Death or Disability.  If Executive's employment shall be terminated due to Executive's Disability, the Company shall pay Executive his full Salary and any accrued paid time off through the date of termination, and any Benefits that have then vested or are then otherwise owed to Executive, and the Company shall have no further obligation to Executive under this Agreement.  If Executive's employment shall be terminated due to Executive's death, the Company shall pay Executive's designated beneficiaries, or if the Executive has no designated beneficiaries, pay to Executive's estate, his full Salary, plus any accrued paid time off and any Benefits that have vested or are then otherwise owed to Executive through the date of death.  "Disability" shall mean a complete or partial inability to perform employment-related duties, in accordance with this Agreement, for more than one hundred eighty (180) days in any one year period, because of a physical or mental impairment.

(iii) Without Good Reason.  If Executive desires to terminate his employment without Good Reason, Executive shall provide the Company with at least 60 days' prior written notice of the effective date of such termination.  Until the effective date of termination, Executive shall continue to fulfill his duties under this Agreement.  The Company shall continue to pay Executive his normal Salary through the effective date of termination, plus any Benefits that have vested or are then otherwise owed to Executive, and the Company shall have no further obligation to Executive under this Agreement.  The Company may, in its discretion, request that Executive cease to perform his duties under this Agreement at any time following its receipt of notice of termination and prior to the effective date of termination, provided, however, that the Company shall continue to pay Executive his normal Salary, plus any Benefits that have vested or are then otherwise owed to Executive, during any such period during which the Company has excused Executive's performance hereunder.

3

(b) Without Cause or for Good Reason.  If Executive's employment is terminated without Cause by the Company, or is terminated by Executive for Good Reason, then the Company shall pay Executive severance payments in an amount equal to the value of Executive's full Salary and Benefits for the longer of one (1) year following the date of such termination or from the date of termination through the last day of the then current Term.  Termination for "Good Reason" shall mean termination by Executive of his employment due to:

(i) the Company's willful, material violation of its obligations under Executive's Employment Agreement; or

(ii) material reduction in Executive's authority, perquisites, position, or responsibilities (other than such a reduction which affects all of the Company's senior executives on a substantially equal or proportionate basis).

If Executive intends to terminate his employment for Good Reason, he must first give notice to the Company that such action or limitation of the Company constitutes Good Reason.  Executive's employment shall be deemed terminated for Good Reason if the Company fails to cure such situation within thirty (30) days of the date of said notice or, if said situation cannot be cured within such period, within a reasonable time thereafter, if a diligent effort is being made to cure such situation, but in no event longer than sixty (60) days from the date of the notice.

6.Restrictive Covenants.

(a) During the Term, and at all times following termination of Executive's employment, Executive shall not, without the prior written consent of an authorized officer of the Company, disclose to any person, other than an employee of the Company or a person to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary or appropriate in connection with the performance by Executive of his duties, any material confidential information, defined as information protected under the Del. Code Ann. tit. 6, § 2001 et seq, obtained by him while in the employ of the Company with respect to any of the Company's or its affiliates' business plans and strategies, pricing and pricing strategies, engineering and technical data, services, products, customers, sales records, methods of business or any business practices the disclosure of which could be or will be materially damaging to the Company or its affiliates (the "Confidential Information"); provided, however, that confidential information shall not include any information known generally to the public (other than as a result of unauthorized disclosure by Executive or any person with the assistance, consent or direction of Executive) or any information of a type not otherwise considered confidential by persons engaged in the same business or a business similar to that conducted by the Company or any information that must be disclosed as required by law or governmental authority.

(b) Executive agrees, during the Term and for a period of twenty-four (24) months following termination of his employment with the Company, not to (i) directly or indirectly contact, solicit or induce any person that is a customer or referral source of the Company to become a customer or referral source for any person other than the Company; or (ii) directly or indirectly solicit, induce or encourage any employee of the Company to leave the employ of the Company.

4

(c) During the Term and at all times following termination of Executive's employment, Executive agrees that he will not disparage the Company in any communications of any nature with any third parties, including but not limited to members, employees and/or affiliates of the Company, or its vendors, customers and suppliers, regarding any matters related to the Company during or following termination of his employment.

(d) Executive acknowledges and agrees that the covenants contained herein are fair and reasonable in light of the consideration paid hereunder, and that damages alone shall not be an adequate remedy for any breach by Executive of his covenants which then apply and accordingly expressly agrees that, in addition to any other remedies which the Company may have, the Company shall be entitled to injunctive relief in any court of competent jurisdiction for any breach or threatened breach of any such covenants by Executive.  Nothing contained herein shall prevent or delay the Company from seeking, in any court of competent jurisdiction, specific performance or other equitable remedies in the event of any breach or intended breach by Executive of any of his obligations hereunder.

(e) The period of time applicable to any covenant in this Section 6 will be extended by the duration of any violation by Executive of such covenant.

(f) If any covenant in this Section 6 is held to be unreasonable, arbitrary, or against public policy, such covenant will be considered to be divisible with respect to scope, time, and geographic area, and such lesser scope, time, or geographic area, or all of them, as a court of competent jurisdiction may determine to be reasonable, not arbitrary, and not against public policy, will be effective, binding, and enforceable against Executive.

7.Company Property.  Executive will not remove from the Company's premises (except to the extent such removal is for purposes of the performance of Executive's duties at home or while traveling, or except as otherwise specifically authorized by the Company) any document, record, notebook, plan, model, component, device, or computer software or code, whether embodied in a disk or in any other form (collectively, the "Proprietary Items"). Executive recognizes that, as between the Company and Executive, all of the Proprietary Items, whether or not developed by Executive, are the exclusive property of the Company.  Upon termination of this Agreement by either party, or upon the request of the Company during the Term, Executive will immediately return to the Company all of the Proprietary Items in Executive's possession or subject to Executive's control, and Executive shall not retain any copies, abstracts, sketches, or other physical or electronic embodiment of any of the Proprietary Items.

5

8.Employee Inventions.

(a) Each Employee Invention (as defined below) shall belong exclusively to the Company. Executive acknowledges that all of Executive's writing, works of authorship and other Employee Inventions are works made for hire and the property of the Company, including any copyrights, patents or other intellectual property rights pertaining thereto.  If it is determined that any such works are not works made for hire, Executive hereby assigns to the Company all of Executive's right, title, and interest, including all rights of copyright, patent and other intellectual property rights, to or in such Employee Inventions. Executive covenants that he will promptly:

(i) disclose to the Company in writing any Employee Invention;

(ii) assign to the Company or to a party designated by the Company, at the Company's request and without additional compensation, all of Executive's right to the Employee Invention for the United States and all foreign jurisdictions;

(iii) execute and deliver to the Company such applications, assignments, and other documents as the Company may request in order to apply for and obtain patents or other registrations with respect to any Employee Invention in the United States and any foreign jurisdictions;

(iv) sign all other papers necessary to carry out the above obligations; and

(v) give testimony and render any other assistance, but without expense to Executive, in support of the Company's rights to any Employee Invention.

(b) For purposes of the foregoing, "Employee Invention" shall mean any idea, invention, technique, modification, process, or improvement (whether patentable or not), any industrial design (whether registerable or not) and any work of authorship related to the business of the Company (whether or not copyright protection may be obtained for it) created, conceived, or developed by Executive, either solely or in conjunction with others, prior to or during the Term, or a period that includes a portion of the Term, that relates in any way to, or is useful in any manner in, the business then being conducted or proposed to be conducted by the Company, and any such item created by Executive, either solely or in conjunction with others, following termination of Executive's employment with the Company, that is based upon or uses Confidential Information.

9.Executive Representations.  Executive hereby represents that he is not subject to any restrictive covenants, other than those stated herein, in connection with any previous employment that would restrict his ability to be employed by the Company.

6

10.Post Term Employment.  Company shall use reasonable efforts to employ Executive as a trainer during the two year period following the expiration of the Term of this Agreement at market rates of compensation for similar positions.  Any such employment shall be on mutually agreeable terms and shall be at will.

11.Expenses.  Each party to this Agreement hereby agrees to be responsible for his or its own expenses, including, but not limited to, legal, accounting and consulting fees.

12.Attorney's Fees and Costs.  In the event of any litigation, arbitration, mediation or other proceeding between the Company and Executive with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and the enforcement of the rights hereunder, the non-prevailing party shall reimburse the prevailing party for all of its or his reasonable costs and expenses relating to such litigation or other proceeding, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses.

13.Notices.  Any notice required or desired to be given under this Agreement shall be deemed given if in writing and sent by overnight courier, or via certified mail, return receipt requested, to Executive's residence or to the Company's principal office, as the case may be.

14.Waiver of Breach.  Either party's waiver of a breach of any provision in this Agreement by the other party shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach by the non-breaching party.  No waiver shall be valid unless in writing and signed by an authorized officer of the Company.

15.Assignment.  Executive acknowledges that his services are unique and personal.  Accordingly, Executive may not assign his rights or delegate his duties or obligations under this Agreement.  The Company's rights and obligations under this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and shall be binding upon, the Company's successors and assigns, and the Company may assign this Agreement, including the restrictive covenants contained in Section 6 of this Agreement, to any successor or assign in the event of the merger or consolidation of the Company or the sale of all or substantially all of the Company's business or assets, and the Executive will continue to be bound thereby.  Executive's rights under this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of his designated beneficiaries, or heirs and assigns to the extent provided by the express terms of this Agreement, and be binding upon any successor or permitted assign to the same extent and with the same force as the Company.

16.Entire Agreement.  This Agreement contains the entire understanding of the parties.  It may not be changed orally but only by an agreement in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of any waiver, change, modification, extension, or discharge is sought.

17.Headings.  Headings in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not be used to interpret or construe its provisions.

18.Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in two (2) or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

19.Governing Law; Jurisdiction.  This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without reference to its choice of law provisions.  Any action or proceeding seeking to enforce any provision of, or based on any right arising out of, this Agreement may be brought against either of the parties in the courts of the State of Delaware, and each of the parties consents to the jurisdiction of such courts (and of the appropriate appellate courts) in any such action or proceeding and waives any objection to venue laid therein. Process in any action or proceeding referred to in the preceding sentence may be served on either party anywhere in the world.

7

20.Section 280G Limitation.  If any benefit or payment from the Company to Executive (whether paid or payable or distributed or distributable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise) (a "Payment") shall be determined to be an "Excess Parachute Payment", as defined in Section 280G(b)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), then the aggregate present value of amounts or benefits payable to Executive pursuant to this Agreement ("Agreement Payments") shall be reduced (but not below zero) to the Reduced Amount.  The "Reduced Amount" shall be the greater of (i) the highest aggregate present value of Agreement Payments that can be paid without causing any payments or benefits hereunder to be an Excess Parachute Payment or (ii) the largest portion, up to and including the total, of the Agreement Payments that after taking into account all applicable state and federal taxes (computed at the highest applicable marginal rate) including any taxes payable pursuant to Section 4999 of the Code, results in a greater after-tax benefit to Executive than the after-tax benefit to Executive of the amount calculated under (i) hereof (computed at the highest applicable marginal rate). For purposes of this Section 19, present value shall be determined in accordance with Section 280G(d)(4) of the Code.

21.409A Provisions.  It is the Company's and the Executive's intent that this Agreement, and each payment hereunder, be exempt from the requirements imposed by Code Section 409A on nonqualified deferred compensation plans, and this Agreement shall be interpreted in accordance with such intent.  Furthermore, payments hereunder that have been earned and vested shall be paid out as soon as practicable once all performance and vesting restrictions have been satisfied or lapsed, and in any event shall be paid no later than the 15th day of the third month following the end of the Company's taxable year in which all performance and vesting restrictions were satisfied.

ARTICLE 4CAPITAL ACCOUNTS

4.1Maintenance of Capital Accounts.  The Company shall maintain a separate capital account ("Capital Account") for each Member according to the rules of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv).  For this purpose, the Company may, upon the occurrence of the events specified in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f), increase or decrease the Capital Accounts in accordance with the rules of such regulation and Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(g) to reflect a revaluation of Company property.

4.2Computation of Amounts.  For purposes of computing the amount of any item of income, gain, loss, deduction or expense to be reflected in Capital Accounts, the determination, recognition and classification of each such item shall be the same as its determination, recognition and classification for federal income tax purposes; provided that:

(a) The computation of all items of income, gain, loss and deduction shall include those items described in Code Section 705(a)(l)(B) or Code Section 705(a)(2)(B) and Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(i), without regard to the fact that such items are not includable in gross income or are not deductible for federal income tax purposes.

(b) If the Book Value of any property is adjusted pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(e) or (f), the amount of such adjustment shall be taken into account as gain or loss from the disposition of such property.

(c) Items of income, gain, loss or deduction attributable to the disposition of property having a Book Value that differs from its adjusted basis for tax purposes shall be computed by reference to the Book Value of such property.

(d) Items of depreciation, amortization and other cost recovery deductions with respect to property having a Book Value that differs from its adjusted basis for tax purposes shall be computed by reference to the property's Book Value in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(g).

(e) To the extent an adjustment to the adjusted tax basis of any asset pursuant to Code Sections 732(d), 734(b) or 743(b) is required, pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m), to be taken into account in determining Capital Accounts, the amount of such adjustment to the Capital Accounts shall be treated as an item of gain (if the adjustment increases the basis of the asset) or loss (if the adjustment decreases such basis).

(f) To the extent that the Company distributes any asset in kind to the Members, the Company shall be deemed to have realized Profits or Losses thereon in the same manner as if the Company had sold such asset for an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of such asset or, if greater and otherwise required by the Code, the amount of debts to which such asset is subject.

7

4.3Negative Capital Accounts.  No Member shall be required to pay to the Company or any other Member any deficit or negative balance which may exist from time to time in such Member's Capital Account (including upon or after the Company's dissolution).

4.4Company Capital.  No Member shall be paid interest on any Capital Contribution to the Company or on the balance of such Member's Capital Account, and no Member shall have any right (i) to demand the return of such Member's Capital Contribution or any other distribution from the Company (whether upon resignation, withdrawal or otherwise),  (ii) to seek or obtain a partition of the Company's assets or (iii) to own or use any particular or individual assets of the Company.

4.5Adjustments to Book Value.  The Company shall adjust the Book Value of its assets to Fair Market Value in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f) as of the following times: (i) at the Manager's discretion in connection with the issuance of Units; (ii) at the Manager's discretion in connection with the Distribution by the Company to a Member of more than a de minimis amount of the Company's assets, including money, if as a result of such Distribution, such Member's interest in the Company is reduced; (iii) the liquidation of the Company within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(g); and (iv) immediately prior to the incorporation of the Company pursuant to Section 12.5.  Any such increase or decrease in Book Value of an asset shall be allocated as Profits or Losses to the Capital Accounts of the Members under Section 6.1 (determined immediately prior to the issuance of the new Units or the distribution of assets in an ownership reduction transaction).

4.6Compliance with Section 1.704-1(b).  The provisions of this Agreement relating to the maintenance of Capital Accounts are intended to comply with Section 1.704-1(b) of the Treasury Regulations, and shall be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent with such Treasury Regulations.  If the Manager determines that it is prudent to modify the manner in which the Capital Accounts, or any debits or credits thereto (including debits or credits relating to liabilities which are secured by contributed or distributed property or which are assumed by the Company or any Member), are computed in order to comply with such regulation, the Manager may make such modification, provided that it is not likely to have a material effect on the amount distributable to any Member on the dissolution of the Company.  The Manager also shall (a) make any adjustments that are necessary or appropriate to maintain equality between the Capital Accounts of the Members and the amount of Company capital reflected on the Company's balance sheet, as computed for book purposes, in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(g), and (b) make any appropriate modifications in the event unanticipated events might otherwise cause this Agreement not to comply with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b).

8

4.7Transfer of Capital Accounts.  The original Capital Account established for each transferee Member shall be in the same amount as the Capital Account of the Member (or portion thereof) to which such transferee Member succeeds, at the time such transferee Member acquires any Units of the Member to which such transferee Member succeeds in accordance with Article 12. The Capital Account of any Member shall be increased or decreased by means of (i) the transfer to such Member of all or part of the Units of another Member or (ii) the repurchase of Units or any other Units shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect such transfer or repurchase. Any reference in this Agreement to a Capital Contribution of or Distribution to a Member that has succeeded any other Member as a transferee shall include any Capital Contributions or Distributions previously made by or to the former Member on account of the Units of such former Member transferred to such Member.

ARTICLE 5DISTRIBUTIONS

5.1Generally.  The Manager shall use reasonable efforts to make a distribution to the Members, at least annually, of the Free Cash Flow of the Company, provided that no such distribution shall exceed, in any event, the cumulative net earnings of the Company to the date of any such distribution.  "Free Cash Flow" means all cash funds derived from operations of the Company (including interest received on reserves), without reduction for any noncash charges, but less cash funds used to pay current operating expenses and to pay or establish reasonable reserves for future expenses, debt payments, capital improvements and replacements, consistent with the Company's Business Plan, as determined in good faith by the Manager.  Free Cash Flow shall not include capital contributions or borrowed funds, and shall be increased by the reduction of any reserve previously established.

5.2Tax Distributions.  Subject to the provisions of Section 18-607  of the Act, so long as the Company is treated as a partnership for federal income tax purposes, the Manager shall use reasonable efforts, subject to any applicable covenants and restrictions contained in the Company's loan agreements and other agreements or obligations to which the Company or its properties are subject, to cause the Company to distribute to the Members with respect to each Fiscal quarter an amount of cash (a "Tax Distribution") which in the good faith judgment of the Manager equals (i) the amount of taxable income allocable to the Members in respect of such Fiscal quarter (net of taxable Losses allocated to the Member in respect of prior Fiscal quarters and not previously taken into account under this clause), multiplied by (ii) the Assumed Tax Rate, with such Tax Distribution to be made to the Members in the same proportions that taxable income was allocated to the Members during such Fiscal quarter (net of taxable Losses allocated to the Member in respect of prior Fiscal quarters and not previously taken into account under this clause).

5.3Amounts Withheld.  All amounts withheld pursuant to Section 6.4 from any Distribution to a Member shall be treated as amounts distributed to such Member pursuant to this Article 5 for all purposes under this Agreement.

ARTICLE 6ALLOCATIONS OF PROFITS AND LOSSES

6.1Allocation of Profits and Losses.  For each Fiscal Year of the Company, after adjusting each Member's Capital Account for all Capital Contributions and Distributions during such Fiscal Year and all special allocations pursuant to Section 6.2 with respect to such Fiscal Year, all Profits and Losses (other than Profits and Losses specially allocated pursuant to Section 6.2) shall be allocated to the Member's Capital Accounts in accordance with their respective ownership interests.

9

6.2Special Allocations.  Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 6.1:

6.2.1 Nonrecourse Deductions.  Nonrecourse Deductions shall be allocated to the Members of Units, pro rata in proportion to the total number of such Units held by each such Member.  If there is a net decrease in Company Minimum Gain during any Taxable Year, each Member shall be specially allocated items of taxable income or gain for such Taxable Year (and, if necessary, subsequent Taxable Years) in an amount equal to such Member's share of the net decrease in Company Minimum Gain, determined in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(g).  The items to be so allocated shall be determined in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(f)(6).  This Section 6.2.1 is intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirement in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(f) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

6.2.2 Member Nonrecourse Deductions.  Member Nonrecourse Deductions shall be allocated in the manner required by Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i). Except as otherwise provided in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(4), if there is a net decrease in Member Minimum Gain during any Taxable Year, each Member that has a share of such Member Minimum Gain shall be specially allocated items of taxable income or gain for such Taxable Year (and, if necessary, subsequent Taxable Years) in an amount equal to that Member's share of the net decrease in Member Minimum Gain. Items to be allocated pursuant to this Section 6.2.2 shall be determined in accordance with Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-2(i)(4) and 1.704-2(j)(2).  This Section 6.2.2 is intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirements in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(4) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

6.2.3 Unexpected Adjustments.  If any Member unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations or Distributions described in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-l(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) or (6), items of taxable income and gain shall be specially allocated to such Member in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate the adjusted capital account deficit (determined according to Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)) created by such adjustments, allocations or Distributions as quickly as possible. This Section 6.2.3 is intended to comply with the qualified income offset requirement in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1 (b)(2)(ii)(d) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

6.2.4 Curative Allocations.  The allocations set forth in Sections 6.2.1, 6.2.2 and 6.2.3 above (the "Regulatory Allocations") are intended to comply with certain requirements of the Treasury Regulations promulgated under Code Section 704. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Article IV (other than the Regulatory Allocations), the Regulatory Allocations shall be taken into account in allocating Profits and Losses among Members so that, to the extent possible, the net amount of such allocations of Profits and Losses and other items and the Regulatory Allocations (including Regulatory Allocations that, although not yet made, are expected to be made in the future) to each Member shall be equal to the net amount that would have been allocated to such Member if the Regulatory Allocations had not occurred.

10

6.2.5 Transactions between Members and the Company.  If, and to the extent that, any Member is deemed to recognize any item of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit as a result of any transaction between such Member and the Company pursuant to Code Sections 1272-1274, 7872, 483, 482, 83 or any similar provision now or hereafter in effect, and the Manager determines that any corresponding Profit or Loss of the Company should be allocated to the Member who recognized such item in order to reflect the Member's Economic Interests in the Company, then the Manager may so allocate such Profit or Loss.

6.2.6 Allocation of Certain Profits and Losses.   Profits and Losses described in Section 4.2(e) shall be allocated in a manner consistent with the manner that the adjustments to the Capital Accounts are required to be made pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.704 1(b)(2)(iv)(m).

6.2.7 Reallocation of Losses.  Company Losses shall not be allocated to a Member if such allocation of Losses would cause the Member to have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit.  Company Losses that cannot be allocated to a Member shall be allocated to the other Members as determined by the Manager in good faith; provided, however, that, if no Member may be allocated Company Losses due to the limitations of this Section 6.2.7, Company Losses shall be allocated to all Members in accordance with their respective outstanding Units.

6.3Tax Allocations; Code Section 704(c).

6.3.1 General.  The income, gains, losses, deductions and expenses of the Company shall be allocated, for federal, state and local income tax purposes, among the Members in accordance with the allocation of such income, gains, losses, deductions and expenses among the Members for computing their Capital Accounts, except that if any such allocation is not permitted by the Code or other applicable law, the Company's subsequent income, gains, losses, deductions and expenses shall be allocated among the Members so as to reflect as nearly as possible the allocation set forth herein in computing their Capital Accounts.

6.3.2 Section 704(c).  In accordance with Code Section 704(c) and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, income, gain, loss, deduction and expense with respect to any property contributed to the capital of the Company shall, solely for tax purposes, be allocated among the Members so as to take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such property to the Company for federal income tax purposes and its fair market value at the time of contribution.  The Company shall use the "traditional method" without curative allocations as described in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-3(b).

6.3.3 Adjustment of Book Value.  If the Book Value of any Company asset is adjusted pursuant to Section 6.3.2, subsequent allocations of items of taxable income, gain, loss, deduction and expense with respect to such asset shall take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such asset for federal income tax purposes and its Book Value in the same manner as under Code Section 704(c).

11

6.3.4 Manager Authority.  Any elections or other decisions relating to allocations for federal, state and local income tax purposes shall be made by the Manager in any manner that reasonably reflects the purpose and intent of this Agreement.  Allocations pursuant to this Section 6.3 are solely for purposes of federal, state and local taxes and shall not affect, or in any way be taken into account in computing, any Member's Capital Account or share of profits, losses, other items or distributions pursuant to any provisions of this Agreement.

6.4Indemnification and Reimbursement for Payments on Behalf of a Member.  Except as otherwise expressly provided in Article 9, if the Company is obligated to pay any amount to a Governmental Entity (or otherwise makes a payment) because of a Person's status as a Member or otherwise specifically attributable to a Member (including, without limitation, federal withholding taxes with respect to foreign Persons, state personal property taxes, state unincorporated business taxes, etc.) then, notwithstanding any provision to the contrary herein, such Member (the "Indemnifying Member") shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, indemnify the Company in full for the entire amount paid (including, without limitation, any interest, penalties and expenses associated with such payments). The amount to be indemnified shall be charged against the Capital Account of the Indemnifying Member and promptly upon notification of an obligation to indemnify the Company, the Indemnifying Member shall make a cash payment to the Company equal to the full amount to be indemnified (and the amount paid shall be added to the Indemnifying Member's Capital Account but shall not be treated as a Capital Contribution).

The Company may pursue and enforce all rights and remedies it may have against each Member under this Section 6.4, including instituting a lawsuit to collect such indemnification and contribution, with interest calculated at a rate equal to the Base Rate plus three percentage points per annum (but not in excess of the highest rate per annum permitted by law), compounded on the last day of each fiscal quarter.

12.2.3 Code Section 7704 Safe Harbor.  In order to permit the Company to qualify for the benefit of a "safe harbor" under Code Section 7704, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Transfer of any Unit or economic interest (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.7704 1(d)) shall be permitted or recognized by the Company or the Manager if and to the extent that such Transfer would cause the Company to have more than 100 partners (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.7704 1(h), including the look through rule in Treasury Regulations Section 1.7704 1(h)(3)).

12.2.4 Competitor or Unsavory Person.  No Transfer of Units or any other interest in the Company may be made to a "competitor" of the Company or a Person of "unsavory business reputation" (in each case as determined in the reasonable view of the Manager).

12.2.5 Accredited Investor.  Such Transfer shall only be to an "accredited investor" (as that term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act).

12.2.6 Termination of Restrictions.  The provisions of Sections 12.1 through 12.2.5, inclusive, shall terminate and be of no further force or effect upon the consummation of a Sale of the Company.

12.3Void Assignment.  Any Transfer by any Member of any Units or other interests in the Company in contravention of this Agreement shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be void and ineffectual and shall not bind or be recognized by the Company or any other party.  No purported transferee in violation of this Agreement shall have any right to any Profits, Losses or Distributions of the Company.

12.4Tag Along Rights.

12.4.1 In connection with any permitted Transfer by the Members of twenty-five percent (25%) or more of the total issued and outstanding Units (for purposes of this Section 12.4, collectively, the "Transferring Members") on the date hereof in any transaction or series of related transactions occurring prior to a Public Offering, each of the other Members shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, have the opportunity to participate proportionately in such sale by selling the same pro rata portion of the Units owned by each of them, as the Transferring Members,  pro rata, and for the same consideration and otherwise on the same terms as such Transferring Member sells its Units.

12.4.2 In connection with any transaction to which Section 12.4.1 hereof shall be applicable, the Transferring Members shall send notice (the "Tag-Along Notice") to the other Members setting forth the consideration per share to be paid in the subject transfer, the proposed closing date for such transaction (which shall be not less than thirty (30) Business Days after the date of such Tag-Along Notice) and the other terms and conditions of such transaction.  Not later than twenty (20) days after the delivery of the Tag-Along Notice, the other Members shall elect whether or not to participate in such transaction and shall provide notice to the Transferring Members thereof, and shall thereafter take such actions as may reasonably be requested by the Transferring Members in order to facilitate the closing of the applicable transaction and to effectuate the provisions of Section 12.4.1 hereof.  The Transferring Members' obligations under Section 12.4.1 hereof to afford the other Members the rights referred to herein will be discharged if the other Members are given notice hereof and shall fail to elect to avail themselves of such rights by a written reply given on or before the expiration of the time period specified above.

12.5Initial Public Offering.  In the event that GSE does not exercise its Option, and the Company's EBITDA for the 12-month period ending August  31, 2019 exceeds $10 million, Dale may, within the 360 day period following expiration of the Option, require the Company to engage in an initial Public Offering, as set forth in Article 13 below, and GSE shall provide commercially reasonable cooperation in connection therewith, and  in connection therewith, the Company will be converted to a corporation without any further act, vote or approval of any Member or any other Person, and the Members shall take all necessary or desirable actions in connection with the consummation of the Public Offering. In the event that such Public Offering is an underwritten offering and the managing underwriters advise the Company in writing that in their opinion the structure of the Company or its Units would adversely affect the marketability of the offering, each Member holding each class of Units shall consent to and vote for a recapitalization, reorganization and/or exchange of each class of the Units into capital stock of other securities that the managing underwriters, the Manager and Voting Majority find acceptable and shall take all necessary or desirable actions in connection with the consummation of the recapitalization, reorganization and/or exchange without any further act, vote or approval of any Member or any other Person; provided that the resulting securities reflect and are consistent with the rights and preferences set forth in this Agreement as in effect immediately prior to such Public Offering.

26

12.6Admission of Substituted Member.

12.6.1 Admission.  An assignee of any Units or other interests in the Company of a Member permitted by this Agreement, or any portion thereof, shall become a substituted Member entitled to all the rights of a Member if and only if (i) the assignor gives the assignee such right, (ii) the Members have unanimously granted their prior written consent to such assignment and substitution, which consent may be withheld in each Member's sole discretion, and (iii) such assignee shall execute and deliver a counterpart or joinder of this Agreement agreeing to be bound by all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and such other documents and instruments as may be necessary or appropriate to effect such Person's admission as a substituted Member, in form satisfactory to the Manager. Any such assignee will become a substituted Member on the later of (x) the effective date of Transfer, and (y) the date on which all of the conditions set forth in the preceding sentence have been satisfied; provided, however, if the last remaining Member transfers all of such Member's Units in the Company pursuant to this Agreement, such admission shall be deemed effective immediately prior to the transfer and, immediately following such admission, the transferor Member shall cease to be a Member of the Company.

12.6.2 Updated Schedule of Members.  Upon the admission of a substituted Member, Schedule A attached hereto shall be amended to reflect the name, address and number and type of Units and other interests in the Company of such substituted Member and to eliminate the name and address of and other information relating to the assigning Member with regard to the assigned Units and other interests in the Company.

12.7Effect of Assignment.

12.7.1 Assignment.  A Transfer of Units permitted hereunder shall be effective as of the date of assignment and compliance with the conditions to such Transfer.  Profits, Losses and other Company items shall be allocated between the assignor and the assignee according to Code Section 706.  Distributions made before the effective date of such Transfer shall be paid to the assignor, and Distributions made after such date shall be paid to the assignee.

12.7.2 Record Owner.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company and the Manager shall be entitled to treat the record owner of any Units or other interest in the Company as the absolute owner thereof and shall incur no liability for Distributions of cash or other property made to such owner until such time as a written assignment of such Units or other interest in the Company, which assignment is permitted pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Article 12, has been received and consented to by the Manager and recorded on the books of the Company.

27

12.7.3 Acceptance of Benefits.  Any Person who acquires in any manner whatsoever any Units or other interest in the Company, irrespective of whether such Person has accepted and adopted in writing the terms and provisions of this Agreement, shall be deemed (to the fullest extent permitted by law) by the acceptance of the benefits of the acquisition thereof to have agreed to be subject to and bound by all the terms and conditions of this Agreement that any predecessor in such Units or other interest in the Company of such Person was subject to or by which such predecessor was bound (including the restrictions on Transfer set forth in this Article 12).

12.7.4 Rights and Obligations of Assignor.  Subject to the next sentence, any Member who shall assign any Units or other limited liability company interest in the Company shall cease to be a Member of the Company with respect to such Units or other limited liability company interest and shall no longer have any rights or privileges of a Member with respect to such Units or other limited liability company interest, except that the applicable provisions of Section 8.5 and Article 9 shall continue to inure to the benefit of such Member in accordance with the terms thereof. Unless and until such an assignee is admitted as a substituted Member in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.6:  (i) such assigning Member shall retain all of the duties, liabilities and obligations of a Member with respect to such Units or other limited liability company interest, and (ii) the Manager may, in its sole discretion, reinstate all or any portion of the rights and privileges of such Member with respect to such Units or other limited liability company interest for any period of time prior to the date such assignee becomes a substituted Member.  Nothing contained herein shall relieve any Member who transfers any Units or other limited liability company interest in the Company from any liability of such Member to the Company or the other Members with respect to such Units or other limited liability company interest that may exist on the date such assignee becomes a substituted Member or that is otherwise specified in the Act and incorporated into this Agreement or for any liability to the Company or any other Person for any present or future breaches of any representations, warranties or covenants by such Member (in its capacity as such) contained herein or in the other agreements with the Company.

12.7.5 Rights and Obligations of Assignee.  A transferee of Units that is not admitted as a Member pursuant to Section 12.67 (such non-admitted transferee, an "Assignee") shall be entitled only to allocations of Profit and Loss (and items of income, gain, expense, deduction and loss that are not included in the computation of Profit and Loss) and Distributions under this Agreement with respect to such transferee's Units.   An Assignee has no right to (i) vote or otherwise participate in Company matters (including having no right to vote on the matters specified in this Agreement to be subject to the approval or consent of the Members); (ii) take part in the management of the Company's affairs or transact any business on behalf of the Company; (iii) receive any notices to be provided to Members under this Agreement or the Act; (iv) receive any information or accounting from the Company; (v) inspect the books or records of the Company; and (vi) any other rights of a member under the Act or this Agreement other than those described in the first sentence of this Section 12.7.5.  Any Units or other limited liability company interest that an Assignee may acquire will be treated in the same manner under this Section 12.7.5 as, and will otherwise be made part of, that Assignee's Economic Interest.

28

12.8Effect of Incapacity or Death.  In the event of the Incapacity or death of a Member, the executor, administrator, guardian, trustee or other personal representative of the Incapacitated or deceased Member shall be deemed to be the Assignee of such Member's Units or other interests in the Company pursuant to Section 12.7.5 and shall not be admitted as a substituted Member but shall hold such interest subject to the limitations and restrictions set forth in Section 12.7.5 for an Assignee who is not a Substitute Member.

12.9Transfer Fees and Expenses.  Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the transferor and transferee of any Units or other interest in the Company shall be jointly and severally obligated to reimburse the Company for all reasonable expenses (including attorneys' fees and expenses) of any Transfer or proposed Transfer, whether or not consummated.

12.10Distributions and Allocations Regarding Transferred Units.  Upon any Transfer during any Fiscal Year of the Company made in compliance with the provisions of this Article 12, Profits, Losses, each item thereof and all other items attributable to such interest for such Fiscal Year shall be divided and allocated between the assignor and the assignee by taking into account their varying interests during such Fiscal Year, using any conventions permitted by law and selected by the Manager.  All Distributions on or before the effective date of such Transfer shall be made to the assignor, and all Distributions thereafter shall be made to the assignee. Solely for purposes of making such allocations and Distributions, the Company shall recognize such Transfer not later than the end of the calendar month during which it is given notice of such Transfer; provided that, if the Company is given notice of a Transfer at least 10 Business Days prior to the Transfer, the Company shall recognize such Transfer as the date of such Transfer, and provided further that, if the Company does not receive a notice stating the date such interest was Transferred and such other information as the Manager may reasonably require within 30 days after the end of the Fiscal Year during which the Transfer occurs, then all such items shall be allocated, and all Distributions shall be made, to the Member that, according to the books and records of the Company, was the owner of the interest on the last day of the Fiscal Year during which the Transfer occurs. Neither the Company nor any Manager shall incur any liability for making allocations and Distributions in accordance with the provisions of this Section 12.10, whether or not the Company or such Manager has knowledge of any Transfer of any interest.

12.11Deadlock.

12.11.1 In the event of a Deadlock, either Member may give a notice of Deadlock to the other ("Deadlock Notice").  Within ten (10) days of the giving of a Deadlock Notice, an authorized representative of each Member shall meet to attempt to negotiate, in good faith, a resolution to the Deadlock and may, if unanimously agreed, utilize a formal mediation process.  Any agreed resolution to the Deadlock shall be binding on the Members, the Manager and the Company.  In the event the Deadlock is not resolved within 15 days of the date the Deadlock Notice was given, a Member may invoke an "Exit Negotiation" pursuant to Section 12.11.2(a).

29

12.11.2

(a) Whenever a Member has the right, as provided in this Section 12.11, to invoke an Exit Negotiation, he or it may do so by giving written notice to the other (an "Exit Notice").  On the fifth (5^th) business day after the giving of the Exit Notice (the "Agreement Date"), each party shall simultaneously provide the other with a firm, written offer to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Units owned by the other for a cash sum certain expressed on a per Unit basis (each, an "Exit Offer").  The terms and conditions for the sale of Units pursuant to any Exit Offer, with the exception of the purchase price to be paid,  shall be as stated in the form of Purchase Agreement attached hereto as Schedule C (the "Purchase Agreement") except as otherwise mutually agreed in writing on or before the Agreement Date.  Under no circumstances may an Offer be withdrawn or modified, nor may additional or conflicting terms from those stated in the Purchase Agreement be stated in an Offer.  Any Offer which does not strictly comply with this Section 12.11 shall be void, as though never submitted, and there shall be no right or ability to correct any Offer which does not comply with this Section.  For the avoidance of doubt, an acceptable form of Exit Offer is attached hereto as Schedule E.

(b) The Exit Offer proposing the highest purchase price per Unit (the "Buyer") shall be deemed accepted by the other Member (the "Seller"), and the Members shall be deemed to have executed the Purchase Agreement as of the Agreement Date using the Buyer's Exit Offer price as the purchase price therein.  The Buyer shall complete the purchase of the Units on the terms and conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement within thirty (30) days from the Agreement Date.  The Buyer shall be entitled to enforce the sale of the Units by the Seller via specific performance, and the Seller shall reimburse the Buyer for all costs, including attorney's fees, incurred by Buyer as a result thereof.

ARTICLE 13PURCHASE OPTION

13.1Option to Purchase.

13.1.1 From and after November 14, 2019, and on or before the Option Expiration Date (the "Option Period"), GSE shall have the option, exercisable in a writing delivered to Dale within the Option Period, to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Units owned by Dale (the "GSE Option").

13.1.2 If GSE waives the right to exercise the GSE Option, if the GSE Option expires without being exercised, or if GSE fails to close on the option within the time period specified in Section 13.3 through no fault of Dale (the earliest of such events to occur being hereinafter referred to as the "Secondary Trigger"), Dale shall have the option (the "Secondary Option"), exercisable in a writing delivered to GSE within 90 days following the Secondary Trigger, to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Units owned by GSE.

30

13.1.3 The party exercising an option to purchase provided under this Section 13.1 shall be referred to in this Section Article 13 as the "Purchaser" and the party whose Units are subject to purchase pursuant to the option to purchase being exercised shall be referred to as the "Seller".

13.1.4 The GSE Option will expire, if not exercised, at the close of business on the 60^th day following the date of actual delivery of the Average EBITDA calculation by the Company, and the Secondary Option will expire, if not exercised, at the close of business on the 90th day following the Secondary Trigger (each such date, the "Expiration Date").

13.2Option Purchase Price.  The purchase price for Seller's Units shall equal (i) the three (3) year average of the Company's EBITDA (the "Average EBITDA"), determined as set forth herein below, for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019 (the "Base Period") (ii) multiplied by the Seller's Percentage Interest in the Company; (iii) multiplied by seven (7) (the "Option Purchase Price").  The Company shall prepare and deliver a Calculation Statement (defined below) to GSE and Dale setting forth the amount of Average EBITDA on or before January 30, 2020; provided that if the Calculation Statement cannot reasonably be produced by January 30, 2020, the Company shall prepare and deliver the Calculation Statement as soon thereafter as reasonably practical.

13.3Closing; Payment Terms.

(a) The closing on an option to purchase pursuant to this Agreement (the "Option Closing") shall be held at the principal office of the Company or at such other place as the Purchaser may reasonably specify on or before the later of (i) the Expiration Date of the relevant option; or (ii) ten (10) days following the date on which the parties agree to the Option Purchase Price as set forth in Section 13.2 herein.

(b) the Option Purchase Price shall be paid via wire transfer, in immediately available funds, by Purchaser to Seller as follows:

(i) Fifty percent (50%) of the Option Purchase Price shall be due and payable at the Option Closing.

(ii) Twenty-five percent (25%) of the Option Purchase Price shall be due and payable on each of the first and second anniversary of the Option Closing if the Company's actual EBITDA for the calendar year immediately preceding such anniversary (i.e., calendar year 2020 and 2021, respectively) ("Actual EBITDA"), equals or exceeds the Average EBITDA for the Base Period.  If the Company's EBITDA for calendar year 2020 or 2021 is less than Average EBITDA but nevertheless is at least equal to 67% of Average EBITDA, Purchaser shall instead pay Seller the following amount for such calendar year, based on that calendar year's Actual EBITDA:

[1- [(1-ActE/AveE)*(3)] ] * I

31

Where "ActE" is Actual EBITDA for the year in question, "AveE" is Average EBITDA and "I" is an amount equal to 25% of the Option purchase Price.  By way of example, if Average EBITDA is $3.0 million (and, therefore, the Option Purchase Price is $7.0 million, payable $3.5 million at closing and up to $2.625 on the subsequent two anniversaries of closing) and Actual EBITDA for 2020 is $2.5 million (which is 83.3% of Average EBITDA), Seller would not receive the full anniversary payment of $2.625, but would nevertheless be entitle to receive a first anniversary payment of $1.3125 million.  [1- [(1-2.5/3.0)*(3)] ] * I

and

(iii) If some or all of the first Twenty-five percent (25%) of the Option Purchase Price payment is not due and payable to Seller due to the Company's Actual EBITDA for 2020 being less than Average EBITDA, Seller may nevertheless earn the unpaid amount if 2021 Actual EBITDA, when added to 2020 Actual EBITDA, equals or exceeds two (2) times Average EBITDA; in such case, in addition to the payments due to Seller pursuant to Section 13.3(b)(i) and (ii) above, Buyer shall pay Seller a further amount equal to the difference between the full Option Purchase Price and the aggregate amount of all Option Purchase Price payments made, such that Seller receives payment from Seller, in the aggregate, equal to the full Option Purchase Price.

(c) Any amount of Option Purchase Price not required to be paid pursuant to this Section 13 shall be forfeited.

13.4EBITDA Calculation.  For the purposes of calculating the Company's EBITDA pursuant to this Article 13, the financial statements of the Company will be prepared on an accrual basis in accordance with GAAP under the direction of GSE, and the Purchaser shall operate the Company fairly, in good faith, consistent with past practices, using its commercially reasonable efforts to achieve results that will enable the Seller to realize the full Option Purchase Price.

(a) Whenever an EBITDA calculation is required by this Article 13, GSE shall prepare and deliver to all Members a written statement (in each case, a "Calculation Statement"), within such time frames as may be specified in this Article 13, or if no time frame is provided, within 30 days after the end of the period for which the Calculation Statement is to be provided, setting forth in reasonable detail its determination of EBITDA or Average EBITDA, as the case may be, for the relevant period or periods (the "EBITDA Calculation") and, where a determination of the Option Purchase Price is required, including its calculation of the Option Purchase Price (the "Price Calculation").

32

(b)

(i) Dale shall have 60 days after receipt of the Calculation Statement (the "Review Period") to review the Calculation Statement, and the EBITDA Calculation and Price Calculation, as the case may be, set forth therein. During the Review Period, Dale shall have the right to inspect the Company's books and records during normal business hours at the Company's offices, upon reasonable prior notice and solely for purposes reasonably related to the determinations of EBITDA and the resulting EBITDA Calculation and Price Calculation, as the case may be.

(ii) Prior to the expiration of the Review Period, Dale may object to the EBITDA Calculation and Price Calculation, as the case may be, set forth in the Calculation Statement by delivering a written notice of objection (a "Calculation Objection Notice") to GSE.  Any Calculation Objection Notice shall specify the items in the applicable EBITDA Calculation and Price Calculation, as the case may be, disputed by Dale and shall describe in reasonable detail the basis for such objection, as well as the amount in dispute, including any objection, where Dale is the Seller, to GSE's compliance with the first sentence of this Section 13.4.  Dale shall be permitted to make and retain copies of the Company's books and records which relate to the reason(s) why Dale submitted his Calculation Objection Notice.  Where GSE is the Seller, GSE may, during the Review Period, object to Dale's compliance with the first sentence of this Section 13.4.

(iii) If Dale fails to deliver a Calculation Objection Notice to GSE prior to the expiration of the Review Period, then the EBITDA Calculation and Price Calculation, as the case may be, set forth in the Calculation Statement shall be final and binding on the parties hereto.

(iv) If Dale timely deliver a Calculation Objection Notice, Dale and GSE shall negotiate, reasonably and in good faith, in an attempt to resolve the disputed items and agree upon the resulting amount of the EBITDA and the EBITDA Calculation and Price Calculation, as the case may be, for the applicable time period. If GSE and Dale are unable to reach agreement within 10 days after such a Calculation Objection Notice has been given, all unresolved disputed items shall be promptly referred to an impartial nationally recognized firm of independent certified public accountants, other than GSE's accountants or Dale's or the Company's accountants, appointed by mutual agreement of Dale and GSE (the "Independent Accountant"). The Independent Accountant shall be directed to render a written report on the unresolved disputed items with respect to the applicable EBITDA Calculation and Price Calculation, as the case may be, as promptly as practicable, but in no event greater than 10 days after such submission to the Independent Accountant, and to resolve only those unresolved disputed items set forth in the Calculation Objection Notice.  If unresolved disputed items are submitted to the Independent Accountant, GSE and Dale shall each furnish to the Independent Accountant such work papers, schedules and other documents and information relating to the unresolved disputed items as the Independent Accountant may reasonably request. The Independent Accountant shall resolve the disputed items based solely on the applicable definitions and other terms in this Agreement and the presentations by GSE and Dale, and not by independent review.

33

(v) The resolution of the dispute and the EBITDA Calculation and Price Calculation, as the case may be, that is the subject of the applicable Calculation Objection Notice by the Independent Accountant shall be final and binding on the parties upon receipt of the Independent Accountant's written report.  The fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant shall be borne by GSE and Dale in proportion to the amounts by which their respective calculations of EBITDA differ from EBITDA as finally determined by the Independent Accountant.

(c) Any amount of Option Purchase Price that GSE, as Purchaser, is required to pay to Seller pursuant to Section 13.3(b)(i) or (ii), shall be paid in full, in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds, no later than 10 Business Days following the date upon which the determination of EBITDA for the applicable calendar year becomes final and binding upon the parties as provided in Section 13.4 (including any final resolution of any dispute raised by Seller in a Calculation Objection Notice).

(d) GSE shall have the right to withhold and set off against any amount otherwise due to be paid pursuant to this Section any Losses which it may suffer as a result of any breach of this Agreement by Dale from and after the Option Closing.

13.5Specific Performance.  In the event a Member refuses to complete the purchase and sale of Units when and as required by this Agreement, either party may pursue specific performance of the other party's obligations.

ARTICLE 14REORGANIZATION

14.1Change in Business Form.  As permitted by Section 12.5, the Manager may convert the Company into another form of Delaware legal entity (including a corporation) permitted by the Act, without any further act, vote or approval of any Member or any other Person, and in which event all or a portion of the Member Interests may either be combined into a single class or type of equity or the rights and preferences of all or a portion of the classes or types of Units may be preserved as nearly as possible under such new structure, in each case provided that unless Members holding a Voting Majority of each adversely affected type or class of equity approve otherwise, the Fair Market Value of each type or class of equity interest as of immediately following such change received by each Member shall be no less than the Fair Market Value of the equity interest exchanged therefor as of immediately prior to such change (ignoring, for purposes hereof, any change in value resulting from a change in the tax status of the Company).  Each Member shall take all lawful action requested by the Manager to effectuate any such restructuring.

34

14.2Holdback Agreement.  Each Member agrees not to effect any public or private sale or distribution of any Member Interests or of any other equity securities of the Company, or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such other securities, during the seven days prior to and the 90-day period beginning on the effective date of any underwritten public offering or at any time if advised by the Company's underwriter that such Transfer will adversely affect the Company's offering.

14.3Limited Power of Attorney.  Each Member hereby makes, constitutes and appoints each Manager (so long as such person remains a Manager), with full power of substitution and resubstitution, its true and lawful attorney, for it and in its name, place and stead and for its use and benefit, to act as its proxy in respect of any vote or approval of Members required to give effect to Sections 14.1 and 14.2 including any vote or approval required under the Act.  The proxy granted pursuant to this Section 14.3 is a special proxy coupled with an interest and is irrevocable.

14.4Splits and Combinations.

14.4.1 Subject to the provisions of Section 18-607 of the Act and Section 14.4.4, the Manager may make, by resolution or resolutions thereof, a distribution of Units to all Members on a Pro Rata Basis, or may effect a subdivision or combination of Units so long as, after any such event, each Member shall have the same Percentage Interest in the Company as before such event, and any amounts calculated on a per Unit basis or stated as a number of Units are proportionately adjusted retroactive to the date of formation of the Company without further act, vote or approval of any Member or any other Person.

14.4.2 Whenever such a distribution, subdivision or combination of Units is declared, the Manager shall select a record date as of which the distribution, subdivision or combination shall be effective and shall send notice thereof at least 20 days prior to such record date to each Member as of a date not less than 10 days prior to the date of such notice.

14.4.3 Promptly following any such distribution, subdivision or combination, the Company may issue Unit certificates to the Members as of the applicable record date representing the new number of Units held by such Members.  If any such combination results in a smaller total number of Units outstanding, the Company shall require, as a condition to the delivery to a Member of such new certificate, the surrender of any certificate held by such Member immediately prior to such record date.

14.4.4 The Company shall not issue fractional Units upon any distribution, subdivision or combination of Units.  If a distribution, subdivision or combination of Units would result in the issuance of fractional Units but for the provisions of this Section 14.4.4, each fractional Unit shall be rounded to the nearest whole Unit (and a 0.5 Unit shall be rounded to the next higher Unit).

16.2Entire Agreement.  This Agreement, those documents expressly referred to herein and other documents dated as of even date herewith embody the complete agreement and understanding among the parties and supersede and pre-empt any prior understandings, agreements or representations by or among the parties, written or oral, which may have related to the subject matter hereof in any way.

16.3Effect of Waiver or Consent.  A waiver or consent, express or implied, to or of any breach or default by any Person in the performance by that Person of its obligations with respect to the Company is not a consent or waiver to or of any other breach or default in the performance by that Person of the same or any other obligations of that Person with respect to the Company. Failure on the part of a Person to complain of any act of any Person or to declare any Person in default with respect to the Company, irrespective of how long that failure continues, does not constitute a waiver by that Person of its rights with respect to that default until the applicable statute-of-limitations period has run.  Any waiver or consent to be provided hereunder must be in writing to be enforceable against the party making such waiver or providing such consent.

16.4Amendments.  Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, the provisions of this Agreement may be amended, modified or waived only by a written instrument executed and agreed to by all Members; provided, that (a) an amendment, modification or waiver requiring additional Capital Contributions from any Member shall be effective only with that Member's written consent, and (b) an amendment, modification or waiver reducing the required interests for any consent or vote in this Agreement shall be effective only with the written consent or vote of that percentage of Members having the interest theretofore previously required; provided further that the Manager may amend and modify the provisions of this Agreement and Schedule A from time to time to the extent necessary to reflect (i) any increase or decrease in the authorized Units or any class or series thereof, (ii)  the creation, authorization and/or issuance of Additional Units or other limited liability company interests in the Company in accordance with Section 3.3, (iii) the admission of new Members and substituted Members in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (iv) a change in structure contemplated by Section 4.3, (v) to effectuate distributions, splits and combinations of Units as contemplated by Section 14.4, or (vi) the redemption of Units.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in any amendment, modification, revision or waiver that would disproportionately and adversely affect any Member (or group of Members) shall require the written consent of the Members holding a majority of the Units held by such adversely affected Members. So as to avoid any doubt as to the meaning of the previous sentence, no provisions of this Agreement that are applicable only to a particular Member may be amended without such Member's consent.

16.5Successors and Assigns.  Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, all covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns, whether so expressed or not.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any party may bring litigation in the Courts of the State of Delaware, or, if it has or can acquire jurisdiction, in the United States District Court for Delaware, requesting injunction or equitable relief.  Any party may file a copy of this section with any court as written evidence of the knowing, voluntary and bargained Agreement of the parties irrevocably agreeing to waive any objections to alternative dispute resolution or to venue or to convenience of forum for permitted court actions.

16.7Severability.  If any provision of this Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable under any applicable present or future law, (a) such provision will be fully severable, (b) this Agreement will be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part hereof, (c) the remaining provisions of this Agreement will remain in full force and effect and will not be affected by the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision or by its severance herefrom and (d) in lieu of such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision, there will be added automatically as a part of this Agreement a legal, valid and enforceable provision as similar in terms to such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision as may be possible.
