ARTICLE I
Purchase and sale

Section 1.01 Purchase and Sale. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, at the Closing, Sellers shall sell to Buyer, and Buyer shall purchase from Sellers, the Shares, free and clear of any mortgage, pledge, lien, charge, security interest, claim, community property interest, option, equitable interest, restriction of any kind (including any restriction on use, voting, transfer, receipt of income, or exercise of any other ownership attribute), or other encumbrance) (each, an “Encumbrance”), except for those items set forth in Section 1.01 of the Disclosure Schedules, on a cash-free debt-free basis.

Section 1.02 Purchase Price.

(a) The aggregate purchase price for the Shares (the “Purchase Price”) is (1) $4,500,000 in cash, of which $4,275,0000 is payable to the Sellers in cash at Closing (the “Closing Purchase Price”), and $225,000 constituting the Holdback Amount (the “Indemnification Holdback”), which shall be retained by Buyer at Closing; plus (2) the Estimated Closing Cash Balance, it being agreed and understood that the Sellers shall use their commercially best efforts to cause the Company to have an Estimated Closing Cash Balance of at least $300,000; plus (3) the amount, if any, by which Estimated Closing Net Working Capital is greater than the Net Working Capital Target less (4) the amount, if any, by which the Estimated Closing Net Working Capital is less than the Net Working Capital Target as described in Section 1.04 (the “Closing Payment”). The “Net Working Capital Target” means an amount equal to $855,669.

(b) Buyer shall pay the Closing Purchase Price to Sellers at the Closing by wire transfer of immediately available funds in accordance with the wire transfer instructions set forth in Section 1.02 of the Disclosure Schedules. The term “Disclosure Schedules” means the disclosure schedules, attached hereto and made a part of this Agreement, delivered by Sellers concurrently with the execution, closing, and delivery of this Agreement.

(c) At Closing, the Buyer will retain the Indemnification Holdback to satisfy the indemnification under Section 7.01(d). In the event that such indemnification claim is less than the Indemnification Holdback, Buyer shall pay over to the Sellers any remaining amounts of the Indemnification Holdback within ten days of the final adjudication of such claim.

Section 1.03 Withholding Taxes. Buyer is entitled to deduct and withhold from the Purchase Price all Taxes that Buyer may be required to deduct and withhold under any provision of Tax Law. All such withheld amounts shall be treated as delivered to Sellers hereunder.

Section 1.04 Closing Adjustment.

(a) No later than three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, Sellers shall deliver to Buyer a statement (the “Estimated Closing Statement”) setting forth a reasonable good faith calculation of an estimate of (i) a balance sheet of the Company as of the Closing prepared on a basis consistent with the preparation of the Balance Sheet (the “Estimated Closing Balance Sheet”) and (ii) a calculation of the Net Working Capital based on the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet (the “Estimated Net Working Capital”). The Estimated Net Working Capital will be calculated as at the Closing Date, and applied on a basis consistent with the accounting, policies, principles, practices, procedures, methodologies, and estimation techniques used in the preparation of the Balance Sheet, and shall include accounts receivable, works in progress, booked but unfulfilled orders, less accounts payable and two payrolls of the Company, all as of the Closing Date, and (iii) a calculation of the Cash of the Company at Closing (the “Estimated Closing Cash Balance”). The Parties acknowledge that the Estimated Closing Statement shall be used for purposes of calculating the Closing Payment.

(b) Within ninety (90) days after the Closing, Buyer shall prepare and deliver to Sellers a calculation of the Net Working Capital of the Company as of the Closing (the “Closing Net Working Capital”), and a calculation of the Cash of the Company as of the Closing (the “Final Closing Cash Balance”), collectively, the “Closing Statement”). After delivery of the Closing Statement, Buyer shall permit Seller and its accountants reasonable access to the accounting records, work papers and computations used by Buyer in the preparation of the Closing Statement.

(c) If Sellers dispute any amounts reflected on the Closing Statement as delivered by Buyer, Sellers shall so notify Buyer in writing (a “Notice of Dispute”) not more than forty-five (45) days after the date Sellers receive the Closing Statement, specifying in reasonable detail all points of disagreement and setting forth Sellers’ own calculations of the amounts it claims are proper for each such item in the Closing Statement it disagrees with (any such disagreement hereinafter, a “Disagreement”). If Sellers fail to deliver a Notice of Dispute within such forty-five (45)-day period, Sellers shall be deemed to have accepted the Closing Statement (and all amounts and calculations set forth thereon) and the Closing Statement as originally delivered by Buyer (and all such amounts and calculations) shall be final, binding, and non-appealable by the Parties. If a Notice of Dispute is timely delivered, Sellers and Buyer shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any Disagreement (as evidenced by a written agreement between them). Only those items and calculations specifically included in the Notice of Dispute as required herein shall be eligible for inclusion in the Disagreement. If the Disagreement is not resolved by Buyer and Sellers in writing within thirty (30) days after Buyer receives the Notice of Dispute, they shall refer the Disagreement to an independent nationally recognized accounting firm that is mutually agreed to by Buyer and Sellers in writing (the “Accountant”) for resolution of such Disagreement in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Buyer and Seller shall instruct the Accountant that the determinations of such firm with respect to any Disagreement shall be rendered within fifteen (15) days after the referral of the Disagreement or as soon thereafter as reasonably possible. The scope of the Accountant’s authority to act shall be strictly limited to determining whether the unresolved items that remain in dispute in the Disagreement were prepared in accordance with this Agreement, including the Accounting Principles, and the Accountant shall determine, on such basis, whether and to what extent the Closing Statement requires adjustment. The Accountant’s decision shall be based solely on written submissions and presentations by Sellers and Buyer and their respective representatives and not based on any independent review by the Accountant. The Accountant shall act as an expert, not an arbitrator, and shall have authority only to address and calculate values for only those items that remain in dispute in the Disagreement and may not assign a value greater than the greatest value claimed for such item by either Party or smaller than the smallest value for such item claimed by either Party. The determination of the Accountant pursuant to this Section 1.04(c) shall be final and binding on the Parties. The fees, costs and expenses of the Accountant shall be allocated between the Sellers, jointly and severally, on the one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand, in the same proportion that the aggregate amount of the disputed items submitted to the Accountant that is unsuccessfully disputed by each such Party (as finally determined by the Accountant) bears to the total amount of disputed items so submitted; provided, that such fees, costs and expenses shall not include, so long as a Party complies with the procedures of this Section 1.04(c), the other Party’s outside counsel or accounting fees. The Closing Net Working Capital and Closing Cash Balance, each as set forth on the Closing Statement as finally determined in accordance with the terms of this Section 1.04(c), shall be referred to as the “Final Net Working Capital” and the “Final Cash Balance” respectively.

(d) Final Adjustment Amount.

(i)  The “Closing Cash Balance Adjustment,” which may be positive or negative, means the Final Cash Balance minus the Estimated Closing Cash Balance.

(ii) The “Net Working Capital Adjustment Amount,” which may be positive or negative, means the Final Net Working Capital minus the Estimated Net Working Capital.

(iii) The “Final Adjustment Amount”, which may be positive or negative, means the Closing Cash Balance Adjustment plus the Net Working Capital Adjustment Amount.

(e) If the Final Adjustment Amount is a positive number, Seller shall be entitled to receive from Buyer an amount in cash. If the Final Adjustment Amount is a negative number, Buyer shall be entitled to receive from the Seller an amount in cash equal to such amount.

(f) If either Party is entitled to receive a payment pursuant to Section 1.04(e), such Party shall, not more than five (5) Business Days after determination of the Final Adjustment Amount, make payment of the value of the Final Adjustment Amount by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the other Party as so directed by such Party.

Covenants

Section 5.01 Confidentiality. From and after the Closing, the Sellers shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates and its and their respective directors, officers, employees, consultants, counsel, accountants, and other agents (collectively, “Representatives”) to, hold in confidence any and all information, in any form, concerning the Company, except to the extent that the Sellers can show that such information: (a) is generally available to and known by the public through no fault of the Sellers, any of their respective Affiliates, or their respective Representatives; or (b) is lawfully acquired by Sellers, any of their respective Affiliates, or their respective Representatives from and after the Closing from sources which are not prohibited from disclosing such information by any obligation. If Sellers or any of their respective Affiliates or their respective Representatives are compelled to disclose any information by Governmental Order or Law, Sellers shall promptly notify Buyer in writing and shall disclose only that portion of such information which is legally required to be disclosed; provided, however, Sellers shall use reasonable best efforts to obtain as promptly as possible an appropriate protective order or other reasonable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded such information.

Section 5.02 Non-Competition; Non-Solicitation. 

(a) For a period of three (3) years commencing on the Closing Date (the “Restricted Period”), Sellers will not, and will not permit any of their respective Affiliates to, directly or indirectly: (i) engage in or assist others in engaging in the information technology packaging business (the “Restricted Business”) in the State of California (the “Territory”); (ii) have an interest in any Person that engages, directly or indirectly, in the Restricted Business in the Territory in any capacity, including as a partner, stockholder, director, officer, member, manager, employee, contractor, principal, agent, volunteer, intern, advisor, or consultant; or (iii) intentionally interfere in any material respect with the business relationships (whether formed prior to or after the date of this Agreement) between the Company and customers or suppliers of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Sellers may own, directly or indirectly, solely as an investment, securities of any Person traded on any national securities exchange if such Seller is not a controlling Person of, or a member of a group which controls, such Person and does not, directly or indirectly, own two percent (2)% or more of any class of securities of such Person.

(b) During the Restricted Period, Sellers will not, and will not permit any of their respective Affiliates to, directly or indirectly, hire or solicit any current or former employee of the Company or encourage any employee to leave the Company’s employment, except pursuant to a general solicitation which is not directed specifically to any such employees; provided, however, nothing in this Section 5.02(b) shall prevent any Seller or any of their respective Affiliates from hiring: (i) any employee terminated by the Company; or (ii) after one hundred eighty (180) days from the date of resignation, any employee that has resigned from the Company.

(c) Sellers acknowledge that a breach or threatened breach of this Section 5.02 would give rise to irreparable harm to Buyer, for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy, and hereby agrees that in the event of a breach or a threatened breach by any Seller of any such obligations, Buyer shall, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies that may be available to it in respect of such breach, be entitled to equitable relief, including a temporary restraining order, an injunction, or specific performance (without any requirement to post bond).

(d) Sellers acknowledge that the restrictions contained in this Section 5.02 are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate interests of Buyer and constitute a material inducement to Buyer to enter into this Agreement and consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In the event that any covenant contained in this Section 5.02 should ever be adjudicated to exceed the time, geographic, product or service, or other limitations permitted by applicable Law in any jurisdiction or any Governmental Order, then any court is expressly empowered to reform such covenant, and such covenant shall be deemed reformed, in such jurisdiction to the maximum time, geographic, product or service, or other limitations permitted by applicable Law or such Governmental Order. The covenants contained in this Section 5.02 and each provision hereof are severable and distinct covenants and provisions. The invalidity or unenforceability of any such covenant or provision as written will not invalidate or render unenforceable the remaining covenants or provisions hereof, and any such invalidity or unenforceability in any jurisdiction will not invalidate or render unenforceable such covenant or provision in any other jurisdiction.

Section 5.03 Audit. Sellers have agreed to cause the Company to cooperate with the Buyer and the Buyer’s auditors in conducting an audit of the Company’s financial statements for the fiscal years ending December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2025 (the “Audit” and such audited financial statements referred to as the “Audited Financial Statements”).

(b) All transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration, value added, and other such Taxes and fees (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents shall be borne and paid by Sellers when due.

Section 6.03 Termination of Existing Tax Sharing Agreements. Any and all existing Tax sharing agreements (whether written or not) binding upon the Company shall be terminated as of the Closing Date. After such date neither the Company, Sellers, nor any of Sellers’ Affiliates and their respective Representatives shall have any further rights or liabilities thereunder.

Section 6.04 Tax Indemnification. The Sellers shall indemnify the Buyer and each Buyer Indemnitee (as defined in Section 7.01) and hold them harmless from and against (a) any loss, damage, liability, deficiency, Action, judgment, interest, award, penalty, fine, cost or expense of whatever kind (collectively, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and the cost of enforcing any right to indemnification under this Agreement, “Losses”) attributable to any breach of or inaccuracy in any representation or warranty made in Section 3.19; (b) any Loss attributable to any breach or violation of, or failure to fully perform, any covenant, agreement, undertaking, or obligation in ARTICLE VI; (c) all Taxes of the Company or relating to the business of the Company for all Pre-Closing Tax Periods (as defined below); (d) all Taxes of any member of an affiliated, consolidated, combined, or unitary group of which the Company (or any predecessor of the Company) is or was a member on or prior to the Closing Date by reason of a liability under Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-6 or any comparable provisions of foreign, state, or local Law; and (e) any and all Taxes of any Person imposed on the Company arising under the principles of transferee or successor liability or by contract, relating to an event or transaction occurring before the Closing Date. In each of the above cases, together with any out-of-pocket fees and expenses (including attorneys’ and accountants’ fees) incurred in connection therewith, the Sellers shall reimburse Buyer for any Taxes of the Company that are the responsibility of Sellers pursuant to this Section 6.04 within ten business days after payment of such Taxes by Buyer or the Company. The term “Pre-Closing Tax Period” means any taxable period ending on or before the Closing Date and, with respect to any taxable period beginning before and ending after the Closing Date, the portion of such taxable period ending on and including the Closing Date.

Section 6.05 Cooperation and Exchange of Information. The Sellers and Buyer shall provide each other with such cooperation and information as either of them reasonably may request of the other in filing any Tax Return pursuant to this ARTICLE VI or in connection with any proceeding in respect of Taxes of the Company, including providing copies of relevant Tax Returns and accompanying documents. Each of Sellers and Buyer shall retain all Tax Returns and other documents in its possession relating to Tax matters of the Company for any Pre-Closing Tax Period (collectively, “Tax Records”) until the expiration of the statute of limitations of the taxable periods to which such Tax Records relate.

Section 6.06 Survival. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the provisions of Section 3.19 and this ARTICLE VI shall survive for the full period of all applicable statutes of limitations (giving effect to any waiver, mitigation, or extension thereof) plus sixty (60) days.

Section 6.07 Further Assurances. Following the Closing, each of the parties hereto shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, execute and deliver such additional documents and instruments and take such further actions as may be reasonably required to carry out the provisions hereof and give effect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.

(a) any inaccuracy in or breach of any of the representations or warranties of Sellers or the Company contained in this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents;

(b) any breach or non-fulfillment of any covenant, agreement, or obligation to be performed by the Sellers or by the Company (prior to the Closing) pursuant to this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents;

(c) any Losses arising out of or relating to any employee of the Business being, as of the Closing Date, ineligible or unauthorized to work in the United States, including due to improper, incomplete, or inaccurate I-9 documentation or any other legal or regulatory reason, and any corrective action to be taken by Buyer with respect to such employee, including termination, replacement, or remediation, together with any direct costs associated therewith, such as government fines or penalties, recruiter or placement agency fees, wage adjustments, training costs, and other reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses; or

(d) any claim with respect to the [***] litigation claim disclosed on Section 3.14 of the Disclosure Schedules.

Section 7.02 Indemnification by Buyer. Subject to the other terms and conditions of this ARTICLE VII, Buyer shall indemnify and defend each of the Sellers and their respective Affiliates and their respective Representatives (collectively, the “Seller Indemnitees”) against, and shall hold each of them harmless from and against, and shall pay and reimburse each of them for, any and all Losses incurred or sustained by, or imposed upon, the Seller Indemnitees based upon, arising out of, with respect to, or by reason of:

(a) any inaccuracy in or breach of any of the representations or warranties of Buyer contained in this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents; or

(b) any breach or non-fulfillment of any covenant, agreement, or obligation to be performed by Buyer pursuant to this Agreement.

Section 7.03 Indemnification Procedures. Whenever any claim shall arise for indemnification under this Agreement, the indemnified party (“Indemnified Party”) shall promptly provide written notice of such claim to the indemnifying party (the “Indemnifying Party”). Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall: (a) describe the claim in reasonable detail; (b) include copies of all material written evidence thereof; and (c) indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. In connection with any claim giving rise to indemnity hereunder resulting from or arising out of any Action by a Person who is not a party to this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party, at its sole cost and expense and upon written notice to the Indemnified Party, may assume the defense of any such Action with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of any such Action, with its counsel and at its own cost and expense, subject to the Indemnifying Party’s right to control the defense thereof. If the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of any such Action, the Indemnified Party may, but shall not be obligated to, defend against such Action in such manner as it may deem appropriate, including settling such Action, after giving notice of it to the Indemnifying Party, on such terms as the Indemnified Party may deem appropriate, and no action taken by the Indemnified Party in accordance with such defense and settlement shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations herein provided with respect to any damages resulting therefrom. Seller and Buyer shall cooperate with each other in all reasonable respects in connection with the defense of any claim, including: (i) making available records relating to such claim; and (ii) furnishing, without expense (other than reimbursement of actual out-of-pocket expenses) to the defending party, management employees of the Indemnified Party as may be reasonably necessary for the preparation of the defense of such claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Indemnifying Party shall not settle any Action without the Indemnified Party’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

Section 7.04 Limitations. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Indemnifying Party shall be liable under this Agreement for any punitive, consequential, special, incidental or indirect damages, including, without limitation, lost profits, lost revenues, lost opportunity or loss of business; provided, however, that this limitation shall not apply to (a) damages arising from third-party claims for which indemnification is sought, or (b) damages resulting from the Indemnifying Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. In the event of any losses or damages, or alleged losses or damages, giving rise to indemnification or a claim for indemnification under this Agreement, the Indemnified Party hereby covenants and agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts (not requiring material expense, litigation, or diversion of significant internal resources) to mitigate such loss or damages, and the resulting indemnified losses or damages. The amount of an Indemnified Party’s indemnification obligations hereunder will be offset by the amount of any insurance proceeds actually recovered from insurers with respect to such losses or damages (net of any deductibles, co-payments or out-of-pocket costs of collection and any increase in insurance premiums attributable to such recovery). The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party for indemnification under Section 7.01(a) or Section 7.02(a), as the case may be, until the aggregate amount of all Losses in respect of indemnification under such applicable section exceeds $25,000 (the “Deductible”), in which event the Indemnifying Party shall only be required to pay or be liable for Losses in excess of the Deductible.

Section 7.05 Survival. Subject to the limitations and other provisions of this Agreement, the representations and warranties contained herein and all related rights to indemnification shall survive the Closing for a period of 12 (twelve) months; provided, however, the representations and warranties in Section 3.01, Section 3.02, Section 3.03, Section 3.04, Section 3.05, Section 3.10(b), Section 3.19, Section 3.22, Section 4.01, Section 4.02 and Section 4.04 shall survive indefinitely. Subject to ARTICLE VI, all covenants and agreements of the parties hereto contained herein shall survive the Closing indefinitely unless another period is explicitly specified herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any claims which are timely asserted in writing by notice from the non-breaching party to the breaching party prior to the expiration date of the applicable survival period will not thereafter be barred by the expiration of the relevant representation or warranty and such claims shall survive until finally resolved.

Section 7.06 Tax Claims. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the control of any claim, assertion, event, or proceeding in respect of Taxes of the Company (including, but not limited to, any such claim in respect of a breach of the representations and warranties in Section 3.19 hereof or any breach or violation of or failure to fully perform any covenant, agreement, undertaking, or obligation in ARTICLE VI) shall be governed exclusively by ARTICLE VI hereof.

Section 7.07 Cumulative Remedies. The rights and remedies provided for in this ARTICLE VII (and in ARTICLE VI) are cumulative and are in addition to and not in substitution for any other rights and remedies available at Law or in equity or otherwise.
