Closing will be held upon satisfaction of the closing conditions, provided, however, pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the closing shall occur on or about January 3, 2014 (the “Closing”).

 

The aggregate consideration to be paid by the Company to the Initio Shareholders for the sale and purchase of the shares shall be the sum of: (i) $14.85 million (the "Purchase Price"); plus (ii) $500,000 (the "Fee Consideration") (the aggregate of (i) an (ii) together the “Total Purchase Price”).

(iii)Promissory Notes. At the Closing, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Initio Shareholders a three year promissory note (subject to adjustment if certain post-closing results are not achieved) in the aggregate amount equal to 26.7% of the Closing Payment, and each Promissory Note will bear interest at the rate of six (6%) percent per annum, amortized on a five year straight line basis.

 

The Parties further agreed that at Closing, Initio and its subsidiaries shall maintain a minimum working capital of at least $299,000.
