Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any holder of Source Direct Shares who shall exercise the rights of a dissenting shareholder pursuant to and strictly in accordance with the provisions of the IBCA shall be entitled to receive only the payment therein provided for and shall not be entitled to receive Global-Tech Shares, provided that if holders of Source Direct Shares holding in excess of 10,000 of such shares at Closing shall exercise the rights of dissenting shareholders, either Global-Tech or Source Direct may terminate this Agreement prior to the Effective Time. Such payment shall be made directly by the Surviving Corporation.


(c)

(e)

Each Source Direct Share held in treasury shall be canceled and retired and cease to exist, and no Global-Tech Shares shall be issued in exchange therefore.

The transfer agent for Global-Tech shall act as Exchange Agent hereunder (the " Exchange Agent" ).

In lieu of any such fractional securities, each holder of Shares who would otherwise have been entitled to a fraction of a Global-Tech Share upon surrender of stock certificates for exchange pursuant to this Article III shall receive a Global-Tech Share rounded to the next highest number.


3.5

Closing of Transfer Books. At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of Source Direct shall be closed and no transfer of Source Direct Shares shall thereafter be made.

3.7

Non-Qualified Shares. If holders of Source Direct Shares do not qualify as accredited or sophisticated investors as set forth in subsection 3.1(c), any Source Direct Shares held by such shareholder shall not be converted as described in Section 3.1, but shall from and after the Effective Time represent only the right to receive such consideration as may be determined to be due pursuant to subsection 3.1(c).


3.8

Closing. The closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the " Closing" ) shall take place at the offices of Ronald N.
