2. PURCHASE AND SALE OF ASSETS

2.1 Assets to Be Purchased. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, at the Closing Seller shall sell, transfer, assign, convey, and deliver to Buyer, and Buyer shall purchase from Seller, all right, title, and interest in and to all of the assets, properties, and rights of Seller used in or relating to the Business, whether tangible or intangible, real, personal, or mixed, wherever located and whether or not reflected on the books and records of Seller, including the following (collectively, the "Assets"):

(a) Accounts Receivable;
(b) inventory, raw materials, work-in-process, finished goods, supplies, and packing materials;
(c) machinery, equipment, vehicles, tools, furniture, fixtures, computers, and other tangible personal property;
(d) Contracts set forth on Schedule 2.1(d), subject to Section 2.3;
(e) Intellectual Property and the goodwill associated therewith;
(f) Permits set forth on Schedule 2.1(f), to the extent transferable;
(g) books and records relating primarily to the Assets or the Business;
(h) all prepaid expenses, deposits, and security deposits; and
(i) all goodwill associated with the Business and the Assets.

2.2 Excluded Assets. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Assets shall exclude, and Seller shall retain, the assets listed on Schedule 2.2 (the "Excluded Assets"), including:

(a) Seller's organizational documents, minute books, and other corporate records;
(b) cash, cash equivalents, and bank accounts; and
(c) any assets expressly designated as "Excluded" on Schedule 2.2.

2.3 Nonassignable Assets. This Agreement does not constitute an assignment of a Contract, Permit, or other right if the attempted assignment would violate applicable Law, breach its terms, or require a consent that has not been obtained. The Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the consents on Schedule 6.3 and shall use only lawful alternative arrangements stated on Schedule 2.3 until a consent is obtained. Buyer is not required to assume the burdens of a nonassigned item unless it receives the corresponding benefits.

3. ASSUMED LIABILITIES; EXCLUDED LIABILITIES

3.1 Assumed Liabilities. Buyer shall assume only the following liabilities of Seller (collectively, the "Assumed Liabilities"):

(a) obligations arising after the Closing under the Contracts included in the Assets, but solely to the extent such obligations do not relate to any breach, default, or violation prior to Closing;
(b) trade accounts payable incurred in the ordinary course of business and reflected on the Closing Balance Sheet; and
(c) liabilities expressly set forth on Schedule 3.1.

3.2 Excluded Liabilities. Except for the Assumed Liabilities, Buyer shall not assume, and Seller shall retain and be solely responsible for, any liabilities or obligations of Seller of any kind, whether known or unknown, absolute or contingent (collectively, the "Excluded Liabilities"), including:

(a) Taxes attributable to periods ending on or before the Closing Date;
(b) any liability under any employee benefit plan;
(c) product liability claims arising from products sold prior to Closing; and
(d) any liability arising out of environmental matters related to pre-Closing operations.

3.3 Effect of Liability Allocation. Sections 3.1 and 3.2 allocate responsibility solely between Buyer and Seller and do not extinguish rights of Governmental Authorities or other third parties under applicable Law. Under 42 U.S.C. § 9607(e)(1), an indemnity or conveyance does not transfer CERCLA liability away from a person on whom the statute imposes liability, although the Parties may allocate the economic burden between themselves.

4. PURCHASE PRICE; PAYMENT MECHANICS

4.1 Purchase Price. The aggregate purchase price for the Assets shall be:
(a) a cash payment of $[AMOUNT] (the "Cash Consideration");
(b) the assumption of the Assumed Liabilities; and

The Cash Consideration and earn-out, together with the Assumed Liabilities, are referred to collectively as the "Purchase Price."

4.2 Deposit. Within [NUMBER] Business Days after execution of this Agreement, Buyer shall deposit $[AMOUNT] (the "Deposit") with [Escrow Agent Name] (the "Escrow Agent") pursuant to the escrow agreement in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the "Escrow Agreement").

4.3 Payment of Cash Consideration. At Closing, Buyer shall deliver the Cash Consideration as follows:

(a) by wire transfer of immediately available funds, less the Deposit, to an account designated in writing by Seller at least two (2) Business Days prior to Closing; and
(b) the Deposit shall be released from escrow to Seller in accordance with the Escrow Agreement.

4.4 Purchase Price Allocation. Within ninety (90) days after Closing, Buyer shall deliver a proposed allocation under 26 U.S.C. § 1060, if applicable. The Parties shall cooperate to finalize the allocation, report consistently unless otherwise required by a final determination, and file Form 8594 and supplemental statements when required.

4.5 Withholding. Buyer may deduct and remit amounts required by applicable Tax Law. Seller shall deliver a properly completed IRS Form W-9 or other requested documentation. If the Assets include a U.S. real-property interest and Seller is a foreign person, Buyer shall apply 26 U.S.C. § 1445 unless effective exception documentation is delivered.

5. CLOSING; DELIVERABLES
