Agreement

Now, therefore, in consideration of the foregoing Recitals and the mutual covenants, agreements, representations and warranties herein made, the parties agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

Purchase and Sale of Shares

1.1 Sale of Shares. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, and in consideration for the Purchase Price set forth in Section 1.2, Shareholder will sell and deliver to Purchaser at the time of Closing, a total of One Hundred (100) shares, no par value per share, of the common stock of TTS (the “Shares”), constituting all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of TTS. Shareholder will deliver to Purchaser at Closing a duly endorsed stock certificate for all of the Shares accompanied by an executed assignment separate from the certificate.

1.2 Purchase Price. The purchase price for the Shares shall be Two Million Three Hundred Thousand and no/100 U.S. Dollars ($2,300,000.00) (“Purchase Price”) payable pursuant to a promissory note as set forth in Sections 1.2(a) and 1.2(b) below, subject, however, to adjustment pursuant to Section 1.3 below.

(a) Common Stock. Purchaser shall issue to Seller at Closing Three Million (3,000,000) shares of Visualant’s common stock (the “Common Shares”) as additional consideration to Seller. The Common Shares will not be issued under a registered offering with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and will be restricted shares. Therefore, any resale of the Common Shares must comply with SEC Rule 144, qualify under an exemption from registration or the Common Shares shall be registered by Purchaser as provided in this Agreement. The parties agree that the value of the shares in this transaction is two cents (0.02 ) per share but such additional consideration shall not be included in the Purchase Price.

(b) Promissory Note. At Closing, Purchaser shall issue to Seller a Promissory Note (the “Note”) substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A in the amount of Two Million Three Hundred Thousand U.S. Dollars ($2,300,000.00), plus interest at the rate of Three and one-half percent (3.5%) per annum, from the date of the Note, but subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 1.3 below. The Note shall be secured by a security interest in the stock of TTS as set forth in Section 1.4 below and a security interest in the assets of TTS as set forth in Section 1.5 below, and shall be payable over a period of three (3) years as follows:

(i) The sum of Six Hundred Fifty Thousand U.S. Dollars ($650,000.00) plus the amount of any accrued interest due on the Bonderson Debt (as defined below), plus interest on the unpaid balance, shall be paid to Seller on the earlier of: (A) the one (1) year anniversary of the Closing Date; or (B) on the closing of Two Million Five Hundred Thousand U.S. Dollars ($2,500,000.00) or more in aggregate financing (whether debt, equity or some combination thereof) after the Closing Date;

(ii) The sum of Six Hundred Fifty Thousand U.S. Dollars ($650,000.00) plus the amount of any accrued interest due on the Bonderson Debt, plus interest on the unpaid balance shall be paid to Seller on the earlier of: (A) the two (2) year anniversary of the Closing Date; or (B) on the closing of Five Million U.S. Dollars ($5,000,000.00) or more in aggregate financing (whether debt, equity or some combination thereof) after the Closing Date; and

(iii) The remaining balance of the Note, plus interest thereon shall be paid to Seller on the earlier of: (A) the three year anniversary of the Closing Date; or (B) on the closing of Seven Million Five Hundred Thousand U.S. Dollars ($7,500,000.00) or more in aggregate financing (whether debt, equity or some combination thereof) after the Closing Date.

1.3 Adjustment of Purchase Price. The amount of the Purchase Price and therefore, the amount of the Note in Section 1.2(b) above, shall be subject to adjustment at Closing as follows: (a) in the event the total amount of the outstanding liability (including all accrued and unpaid interest) due by Seller to The Bonderson Family Living Trust under the Secured Promissory Note dated June 30, 2006, and the Secured Line of Credit Agreement dated June 5, 2008 (collectively, the “Bonderson Debt”), exceeds the sum of Six Hundred Thousand U.S. Dollars ($600,000.00) as of the Closing Date, the Purchase Price shall be increased by the difference between the amount of the Bonderson Debt and $600,000; and (b) in the event the total amount of the Bonderson Debt outstanding as of the Closing Date is less than $600,000, the Purchase Price shall be decreased by the difference between $600,000 and the amount of the Bonderson Debt. This adjustment in the Purchase Price shall be reflected by a corresponding increase or decrease, as applicable, in the amount of the Note set forth in Section 1.2(b) above. In addition, the Purchase Price (and accordingly, the amount of the Note) shall be adjusted to account for the amount of accrued interest due on the outstanding balance of the Bonderson Debt as of the date of each installment payment under Sections 1.2(b)(i) and (ii) above, and the amount of such accrued interest due on the Bonderson Debt shall be added to the installment amount to be paid under Sections 1.2(b)(i) and (ii). In addition, in the event the Purchaser shall sell (a) to any single entity (including any affiliates) more than a 50% ownership interest in TTS, or (b) a majority of the assets of TTS, in each case within 36 months of the Closing Date, then the Purchaser shall pay to the Seller, in addition to any payments to Seller as provided herein five percent (5%) of any proceeds received by the Purchaser above $2,300,000, unless the Seller has previously been paid in full under the terms of this agreement prior to any offer or expression of interest by any potential purchaser..

1.4 Security Interest in Shares and Continuing Control of TTS by Seller. Immediately following the Closing, Purchaser shall grant to Seller a security interest in the Shares to secure Purchaser’s obligations under the Note referenced in Section 1.2(b) above, and shall execute a Stock Pledge Agreement substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B. Purchaser agrees that following Closing, TTS shall remain and be operated as a separate, wholly-owned subsidiary of Purchaser, with separate revenue, profit and loss responsibilities and allocations and shall be controlled and operated solely by Seller in Seller’s sole discretion in accord with the terms of the Stock Pledge Agreement. Purchaser shall not transfer its legal or beneficial interest in the Shares and shall retain all of the TTS assets within TTS (except for sales, transfers and other dispositions made in the ordinary course of business with the approval of Seller, in accord with the terms of the Stock Pledge Agreement) until such time as the Note and other Obligations have been fully repaid or otherwise satisfied by Purchaser.

1.5 Security Interest in the Assets of TTS. Immediately following the Closing, TTS shall grant to Seller a first security interest in the assets of TTS, subject only to the liens of record on the Closing Date, to secure Purchaser’s obligations under the Note referenced in Section 1.2(b) above, and shall execute a Security Agreement substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C. Purchaser agrees that following Closing, TTS shall remain and be operated as a separate, wholly-owned subsidiary of Purchaser, with separate revenue, profit and loss responsibilities and allocations and shall be controlled and operated by Seller in accord with the terms of the Stock Pledge Agreement. The Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that under the terms of the Stock Pledge Agreement, Seller has all voting rights in the Shares. Until all Obligations are paid in full, satisfied and fulfilled, unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Seller, to the extent that Purchaser has any legal or beneficial interest in the Shares, Purchaser shall cooperate with Seller to cause TTS (i) to operate the business and dispose of its inventory only in the ordinary course of business; (ii) not to sell, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of any TTS assets or any interest therein, or permit or suffer any other person to acquire any interest in any TTS asset; and (iii) to keep the assets of TTS free and clear of all liens except of record on the Closing Date.

1.6 Closing. The closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Closing”) shall take place at the offices of Seller’s legal counsel, Brownstein, Rask Sweeney, Kerr Grim, DeSyliva & Hay LLP, 1200 SW Main Street, Portland Oregon, at ___:___ a.m. local time, on or before June 8, 2010, or at such other time and place and on such other date as Purchaser and Seller shall agree (the “Closing Date”).

For purposes of this Agreement, an “Acquisition Proposal” means any proposal or offer relating to: (i) any merger, consolidation, sale or license of all, a portion of, or substantially all of the assets or stock of TTS (other than sales or licenses of assets or inventory in the Ordinary Course of Business or as permitted by this Agreement); or (ii) investments in or sales by TTS or Shareholder of any capital stock or other securities of TTS or any Subsidiary. TTS and Shareholder shall immediately cease any and all existing activities, discussions or negotiations with any parties conducted heretofore with respect to any of the foregoing. TTS and Shareholder shall promptly (A) notify Purchaser if TTS or Shareholder receives any proposal or written inquiry or written request for information in connection with an Acquisition Proposal or potential Acquisition Proposal, and (B) notify Purchaser of the significant terms and conditions of any such Acquisition Proposal, including the identity of the party making an Acquisition Proposal. In addition, from and after the date of this Agreement until the earlier to occur of the Closing Date or termination of this Agreement pursuant to its terms, TTS shall not, and shall cause its directors, officers, employees, shareholders, financial advisors, agents and affiliates not to, directly or indirectly, make or authorize any public statement, recommendation or solicitation in support of any Acquisition Proposal made by any person, entity or group (other than Purchaser).

4.7 Public Disclosure. Unless otherwise required by law (including, without limitation, applicable securities laws), TTS and Shareholder shall not issue any statement or communication to any third party (whether or not in response to an inquiry) regarding the subject matter of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including if this Agreement is terminated and the reasons therefor, without the prior consent of Purchaser, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

4.8 Tax Distribution for Shareholder.

(a) Within ten (10) days after the last income tax Return of TTS for the taxable year ending on or immediately prior to the Closing Date has been prepared, the Shareholder shall prepare and deliver to the Purchaser a statement (the “Shareholder Tax Statement”) reflecting the amount of income taxes owed by the Shareholder (as defined as “Shareholder Taxes” below) as a result of Shareholder taking into account TTS’s items of income, loss, deduction, or credit, and nonseparately computed income or loss under applicable tax law (e.g., Section 1366 of the Code) for the time period starting on January 1, 2010, and ending on or immediately prior to the Closing Date.

(b) Within ten (10) days following the receipt of the Shareholder Tax Statement, the Purchaser shall deliver written notice to the Shareholder of any dispute that the Purchaser has with respect to the Return or the preparation or content of the Shareholder Tax Statement. In the event that the Purchaser does not notify the Shareholder of a dispute with respect to the Shareholder Tax Statement within such ten (10) day period, such statement shall be deemed final, conclusive, and binding on the parties. In the event of such notification of a dispute, the Purchaser and the Shareholder shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any such dispute. If the Purchaser and the Shareholder, notwithstanding such good faith effort, fail to resolve such dispute within ten (10) days after the Purchaser advises the Shareholder of the Purchaser’s objections, then the Purchaser and the Shareholder shall submit such dispute for arbitration to a nationally recognized accounting firm mutually, agreeable to the Purchaser and the Shareholder (the “Accounting Firm”). All determinations relating to such dispute made by the Accounting Firm shall be final, conclusive, and binding on the parties. The Purchaser, on the one hand, and the Shareholder, on the other hand, shall share the fees and expenses of the Arbitration Firm in inverse proportion to the extent to which their respective positions, on an aggregated basis, are sustained by the Arbitration Firm. “Shareholder Taxes” shall equal 45% of the income of the Shareholder as a result of such Shareholder taking into account TTS’s items of income, loss, deduction, or credit, and nonseparately computed income or loss under applicable tax law (e.g., Section 1366 of the Code) reflected on the Shareholder Tax Statement that has become final, binding and conclusive pursuant to this Section 4.8(b).

(c) The Purchaser or TTS shall pay or cause to be paid to the Shareholder by bank wire transfer of immediately available funds (or such other mutually acceptable means), to the account designated in writing by the Shareholder to the Purchaser, an aggregate amount in cash equal to the Shareholder Taxes. Any payment required by this Section 4.8 shall be made within ten (10) business days from the date on which the amount of Shareholder Taxes is determined pursuant to Section 4.8(b).

4.9 Information and Reporting. The parties to this Agreement agree to deliver all necessary and appropriate information to one another to allow proper and consistent reporting of this transaction and filing of Returns. Furthermore, the parties to this Agreement agree that Purchaser will be responsible for the preparation and filing of all Returns required for TTS for years ending after December 31, 2009, and that all such Returns of TTS (i) will be consistent with prior reporting practice of TTS, and (ii) will not change, propose changes, or imply necessary changes to prior Returns of TTS.

4.10 Required Securities Filing. Purchaser will cause to be filed all notices, reports or other documents required to be filed under the securities laws and regulations thereunder of the United States and any state or other jurisdiction thereof in connection with the offer, sale and issuance of the Common Shares.

(i) Seller shall have thirty (30) days or such longer period as shall be set forth in the notice from the receipt of such notice to deliver to the Purchaser a written request specifying the number of shares of his Common Shares that Seller intends to sell and the Seller's intended plan of disposition.

(ii) In the event that the proposed registration by the Purchaser is, in whole or in part, an underwritten public offering of securities of the Purchaser, any request under this Section 5.2(d) may specify that the Common Shares be included in the underwriting on the same terms and conditions as the shares of common shares, if any, otherwise being sold through underwriters under such registration.

(E) at any time when a prospectus covered by such Registration Statement is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, notify Seller of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances then existing and, at the request of Seller, prepare, file and furnish to Seller a reasonable number of copies of a supplement to or an amendment of such prospectus as may be necessary so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such shares, such prospectus shall not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statement therein not misleading in light of the circumstances then existing.

(F) the Purchaser shall pay all registration expenses incurred by the Purchaser in complying with this Section 5.2(d); provided however that all underwriting discounts and selling commissions applicable to the Seller’s Shares covered by registrations effected pursuant to this section shall be borne by the Seller, in proportion to the number of shares sold by all such seller or sellers of common shares.

ARTICLE VI

Indemnification

6.1 General Indemnification Covenants. Subject to the provisions of Section 6.3 and Section 6.4, Shareholder shall indemnify, save and keep Purchaser, its directors, officers, affiliates, and permitted assigns (the “Indemnitees”), harmless from and against all liabilities, demands, claims, actions or causes of action, assessments, losses, fines, penalties, costs, damages and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees (collectively, “Damages”), asserted against or sustained or incurred by any of the Indemnitees resulting from, arising out of or by virtue of: (a) any misrepresentation, breach of any warranty or representation, or non-fulfillment of any agreement or covenant on the part of TTS or Shareholder, whether contained in this Agreement, any Exhibit or Schedule hereto.

6.2 Tax Indemnity.

(a) Shareholder hereby agrees to protect, defend, indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser and its officers, directors, affiliates, successors and assigns, from and against any and all taxes of TTS, any Subsidiary of TTS, and Shareholder with respect to any period (or any portion thereof) up to and including the Closing Date, except for taxes of TTS and any Subsidiary which are reflected as current liabilities for taxes that exist as of the Closing Date (“Current Tax Liabilities”) on the Closing Balance Sheet, together with all reasonable legal fees, disbursements and expenses incurred by Purchaser in connection therewith. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.2(a), which contemplate taxes for TTS and any Subsidiary, the obligations of Purchaser and TTS established by Section 4.8 and set forth in the Shareholder Tax Statement and the Shareholder Tax shall not be subject to the provisions of this Section 6.2.

(b) Purchaser shall prepare and file any tax return of TTS which is required to be filed after the Closing Date and which relates to any period (or portion thereof) up to and including the Closing Date, and Purchaser shall, within forty-five (45) days prior to the due date of any such return, deliver a draft copy to Shareholder. Within twenty (20) days of the receipt of any such return, Shareholder may reasonably request changes, in which event Purchaser and Shareholder shall attempt to agree on a mutually acceptable resolution of the issues in dispute. If a resolution is reached, such return shall be filed in accordance therewith. If a resolution is not reached, then at the expense of Purchaser and Shareholder (such expense to be shared one-half by Purchaser and one-half by Shareholder), such return shall be submitted to a firm of independent certified public accountants selected by Purchaser and reasonably acceptable to Shareholder, which shall be directed to resolve the issues in dispute and prepare the return for filing. As soon as is practicable after notice from Purchaser to Shareholder at any time prior to the date any payment for taxes attributable to any such return is due, provided such return is prepared for filing in accordance with the foregoing, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of: (i) taxes that are due with respect to any taxable period ending on or before the Closing Date, or taxes that would have been due with respect to a taxable period beginning before and ending after the Closing Date if such period had ended on the Closing Date over (ii) the amount of such taxes of TTS with respect to such taxable period which are reflected as Current Tax Liabilities on the Closing Balance Sheet, shall be paid by Shareholder to Purchaser in cash or by wire transfer within three (3) business days after written demand therefor. The foregoing obligation for taxes is applicable to entity level taxes for TTS and any Subsidiary and does not include the tax obligation of the Shareholder which is provided for at Section 4.8.

(c) The indemnify provided for in this Section 6.2 shall be independent of any other indemnity provision hereof and, anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, shall survive for the applicable statutes of limitation, plus sixty (60) days, for the taxes referred to herein, and any taxes subject to the indemnification for taxes set forth in this Section 6.2 shall not be subject to the provisions of Section 6.3 and Section 6.4 hereof.

6.3 Limitations on Indemnification. The obligations of Shareholder pursuant to Section 6.1 are subject to the following limitations: Shareholder will not be liable for any Damages under Section 6.1 unless and until the aggregate amount of such Damages for which Shareholder would otherwise be responsible exceeds One Hundred Fifty Thousand U.S. Dollars ($150,000) (the “Basket”). If the aggregate amount of such Damages for which Shareholder is responsible exceeds the Basket, then Shareholder will be responsible for the amount of all such Damages, in excess of the Basket amount. In no event, however, shall the obligation of Shareholder to indemnify the Indemnitees pursuant to Section 6.1 exceed the amount of the Purchase Price in the aggregate for any claims made; provided, however, that the limitations set forth in this Section 6.3 shall not apply to any indemnification obligations of Shareholder under Section 6.2. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Purchaser agrees and acknowledges that (i) any matters disclosed, incorporated by reference or deemed disclosed are exceptions to the Warranties and Representations that the Purchaser is accepting as part of the transaction (ii) TTS and Shareholder shall have no indemnification liability or any other obligation pursuant to this Agreement, including but not limited to this Article VI, Indemnification, for these excluded and disclosed exceptions to the warranties and representations disclosed, incorporated by reference or deemed disclosed in the Seller’s Disclosure Schedules. Purchaser further agrees and acknowledges that in order to prevail on any claim for damages of any kind or nature that they must prove by clear and convincing evidence both that there was a breach and that there was no disclosure, incorporation by reference or deemed disclosure as an exception to the warranties and representations of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any proven claim for indemnification or damages against TTS and Shareholder shall not become due and payable and no offset may be taken against amounts due to TTS and Shareholder until after TTS and Shareholder have been paid in full under the terms of this agreement.

6.4 Notice Requirements. No party entitled to indemnification hereunder shall be entitled to assert any right of indemnification under Section 6.1 unless such Indemnitee has given written notice to the party or parties subject to an indemnification claim hereunder on or prior to the end of any survival period set forth in Section 6.6. If the Indemnitee gives such notice on or prior to the end of the survival period, such Indemnitee shall continue to have the right to be indemnified with respect to such pending indemnification claim, notwithstanding the expiration of such survival period.

6.5 Procedures Regarding Third-Party Claims.

(a) If a third party makes a claim against an Indemnitee for which such Indemnitee intends to seek indemnification hereunder, such Indemnitee shall notify the other party or parties against whom it intends to assert such indemnification claim (in such context, an “Indemnifying Party”) in writing reasonably promptly after the assertion against the Indemnitee of any claim by a third party (a “Third-Party Claim”), but the failure or delay so to notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve it of any obligation or liability that it may have to the Indemnitee, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party demonstrates that its ability to defend or resolve such Third Party Claim is materially and adversely prejudiced thereby.

(b) Subject to the provisions of Section 6.5(d), the Indemnifying Party shall have the right, upon written notice given to the Indemnitee within thirty (30) days after receipt of the notice from the Indemnitee of any Third Party Claim, to assume the defense or handling of such Third Party Claim, at the Indemnifying Party's sole expense, in which case the provisions of Section 6.5(c) shall govern.

(c) The Indemnifying Party shall select counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee to conduct the defense or handling of such Third Party Claim, and the Indemnifying Party shall defend or handle the same in consultation with the Indemnitee, shall keep the Indemnitee timely apprised of the status of such Third Party Claim, and shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee, directly or indirectly assume any position or take any action that would impose any obligation of any kind on or restrict the actions of the Indemnitee. The Indemnifying Party shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, consent to entry of any judgment or administrative order, or enter into any settlement or compromise intended to bind the Indemnitee that: (i) does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to the Indemnitee of a release from all liability with respect to such Third Party Claim, (ii) requires any admission of wrongdoing on the part of, or payment of funds by, the Indemnitee, (iii) grants any injunctive or equitable relief, or (iv) would, in the good faith judgment of the Indemnitee, be likely to establish a precedential custom or practice that is materially adverse to the continuing business interests of the Indemnitee. The Indemnitee shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party and shall be entitled to participate in the defense or handling of any Third Party Claim with its own counsel and at its own expense. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Indemnifying Party fails to conduct the defense or handling of any Third Party Claim in good faith after having assumed such defense or handling, then the provisions of Section 6.5(d) shall govern.

(d) If the Indemnifying Party does not give written notice to the Indemnitee within thirty (30) days after receipt of notice from the Indemnitee of any Third Party Claim, of the Indemnifying Party's election to assume the defense or handling of such Third Party Claim (or if the Indemnifying Party fails to conduct the defense or handling of any Third Party Claim in good faith after having assumed such defense or handling under Section 6.5(c) above), then the Indemnitee may, at the Indemnifying Party's expense, select counsel in connection with conducting the defense or handling of such Third Party Claim and defend or handle such Third Party Claim in such manner as it may deem appropriate; provided, however, that the Indemnitee shall keep the Indemnifying Party timely apprised of the status of such Third Party Claim and shall not settle such Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If the Indemnitee defends or handles such Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall cooperate with the Indemnitee and shall be entitled to participate in the defense or handling of such Third Party Claim with its own counsel and at its own expense.

(e) If the Indemnitee intends to seek indemnification hereunder other than for a Third Party Claim, then it shall notify the Indemnifying Party in writing within forty-five (45) days after its discovery of facts upon which it intends to make a claim for indemnification hereunder, but the failure or delay so to notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of any obligation or liability that the Indemnifying Party may have to the Indemnitee except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party demonstrates that the Indemnifying Party's ability to defend or resolve such claim is adversely affected thereby.

6.6 Survival Period. Except as otherwise provided in Section 6.2 with respect to the indemnification for tax liabilities, all representations, warranties, covenants and agreements made by TTS and Shareholder contained in this Agreement and in any Exhibit or Schedule hereto, shall survive the Closing Date until the earlier of: (a) December 31, 2011, or (b) the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations with respect to such matters.

6.7 Releases by Shareholder. Shareholder hereby releases and discharges Purchaser and its officers, directors, shareholders, employees, agents and representatives from, and agrees and covenants that in no event will Shareholder commence any litigation or other legal or administrative proceeding against Purchaser or its officers, directors, shareholders, employees, agents or representatives, whether in law or equity, relating to any claims or demands, known and unknown, suspected and unsuspected, disclosed and undisclosed, for damages, actual or consequential, past, present and future, arising out of or in any way connected with Shareholder’s ownership of TTS stock prior to the Closing Date, other than claims or demands arising out of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

ARTICLE VII

7.1 Termination. Except as provided in Section 7.2, this Agreement may be terminated and the transactions contemplated hereby abandoned at any time prior to the Closing Date:

(a) By the mutual written agreement of Shareholder and Purchaser;

(b) By either Shareholder or Purchaser if the Closing has not occurred by the Closing Date (including any extension thereof); provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 7.1(b) shall not be available to any party whose willful failure to fulfill any covenant, obligation or condition under this Agreement or other breach of this Agreement has been the cause of, or resulted in, the failure of the Closing to occur on the Closing Date;

(c) By Purchaser if it is not in material breach of its obligations under this Agreement and there has been a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement on the part of TTS or Shareholder and (i) TTS or Shareholder has not cured such breach within fifteen (15) days after notice of such breach has been given by Purchaser to Shareholder in accordance with Section 9.2; provided, however, that no cure period shall be required for any such breach which by its nature cannot be cured, and (ii) as a result of such breach, one or more of the conditions set forth in Sections 5.1 and 5.3 would not be satisfied at or prior to the Closing;

(d) By Shareholder if neither he nor TTS is in material breach of his/its obligations under this Agreement and there has been a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement on the part of Purchaser and (i) Purchaser has not cured such breach within fifteen (15) days after notice of such breach has been given by Shareholder to Purchaser in accordance with Section 9.2; provided, however, that no cure period shall be required for any such breach which by its nature cannot be cured, and (ii) as a result of such breach, one or more of the conditions set forth in Sections 5.1 and 5.2 would not be satisfied at or prior to the Closing. For the absence of doubt, any breach of any representations, warranties, covenants, or agreement contained in this Agreement, the Note, the Stock Pledge Agreement, or the Security Agreement (individually or collectively) shall be an event of default in all of the agreements.;

(e) By Purchaser if there shall have occurred any material event or condition of any character affecting TTS that has had or is reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the business or operations of TTS.

7.2 Effect of Termination.

7.3 Amendment. This Agreement may be amended by the parties hereto only by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of the parties hereto.

7.4 Extension; Waiver. At any time prior to the Closing, Shareholder and Purchaser may, to the extent legally allowed, (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations of the other party to this Agreement, (b) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties made to such party contained in this Agreement or in any Exhibits and Schedules hereto, and (c) waive compliance with any of the agreements or conditions for the benefit of such party contained in this Agreement.

ARTICLE VIII

Dispute Resolution

Except as otherwise provided in Section 6.2(b), all controversies, claims, issues and other disputes arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be subject to the applicable provisions of this Article VIII.

8.1 Sole Remedy. With respect to any future dispute, controversy or claim arising under, out of, in connection with or in relation to this Agreement or the breach, termination, validity or enforceability of any provision hereof (each a “Dispute”) where the amount at issue is One Hundred Thousand U.S. Dollars ($100,000) or less, the parties covenant not to initiate litigation in any state or federal court and agree that any such Dispute shall be resolved in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Article VIII, which shall be the sole and exclusive procedure for the resolution of such Dispute. The parties agree that the provisions of this Article VIII are a complete defense to any suit, action or other proceeding instituted in any court or before any administrative tribunal with respect to any Dispute or the performance of any provision of this Agreement where the amount at issue is USD$100,000 or less.

8.2 Mediation. With respect to all Disputes, regardless of the amount at issue, the parties shall attempt first to negotiate a resolution of the Dispute by direct discussions initiated by written demand by one party and consented to by the other. If the parties cannot resolve the Dispute by negotiation, the parties agree that such Dispute shall then be mediated, and any such mediation shall be pursuant to the Commercial Mediation Procedures of the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Service (“JAMS”), or in the event the parties mutually agree to use another mediation service, the applicable mediation rules of such other service. The mediator shall be selected by mutual agreement of the parties, but if agreement is not reached within ten (10) days following the agreement to mediate, the mediator shall be selected by JAMS or such other mediation service, if applicable. Such mediation shall be without prejudice to further voluntary or court-ordered mediation in the event such mediation is unsuccessful. The costs of obtaining the appointment of a mediator, the fees and expenses of the mediation, or any other cost or charge of the mediation shall be borne equally by the parties, unless otherwise agreed.

8.3 Arbitration. With respect to any Dispute that has not been resolved by mediation, either party may give notice to the other requiring that the Dispute shall be finally resolved by binding arbitration in accordance with the then applicable Commercial Arbitration Rules of JAMS (the “Rules”) or such other rules adopted by the arbitration service agreed to and utilized by the parties; provided, however, that where the amount at issue exceeds One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000), arbitration of such Dispute must be by mutual agreement of the parties. Disputes agreed to be resolved by arbitration where the amount in controversy is more than One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) shall be settled by a panel of three independent arbitrators unless the parties agree to a single arbitrator. Disputes in which the amount in controversy is $100,000 or less shall be settled by a single independent arbitrator. In the event the parties are not able to agree upon the arbitrators, then the arbitrators shall be selected by JAMS (or such other arbitration service agreed to by the parties) in accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules. The arbitration shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§1-16, and, notwithstanding the provisions of Section 8.1 hereof, judgment upon the award rendered in any such arbitration may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof, or application may be made to such court for judicial acceptance of the award and enforcement, as the law of such jurisdiction may require or allow. Any negotiation, mediation, arbitration or litigation conducted pursuant to this Agreement shall take place in Portland, Oregon, unless the parties mutually agree to a different location.

ARTICLE IX

The parties further agree to replace such void or unenforceable term or provision of this Agreement with a valid and enforceable term or provision that shall achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such void or unenforceable term or provision.

9.6 Other Remedies. Except as otherwise expressly provided for herein, any and all remedies in this Agreement expressly conferred upon a party shall be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred by this Agreement, or by law or equity upon such party, and the exercise by a party of any one remedy shall not preclude the exercise of any other remedy.

9.9 Non-Waiver. The failure in any one or more instances of a party to insist upon performance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement, to exercise any privilege conferred in this Agreement, or the waiver by said party of any breach of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement, shall not be construed as a subsequent waiver of any such terms, covenants, conditions, rights or privileges, but the same shall continue and remain in full force and effect as if no such forbearance or waiver had occurred. No waiver shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by an authorized representative of the waiving party.

9.10 Headings. The section headings contained in this Agreement are inserted for convenience of reference only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

Any reference to any federal, state, local or foreign statute or law shall be deemed also to refer to all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, unless the context requires otherwise. The word “including” shall mean including without limitation.
