 23 









	 	 
the 30th day after expiration of the applicable statute
of limitations, and those contained in Clause 6.1.1 (Organization), Clause 6.1.2 (Authority), Clause 6.1.3 (Shares), Clause 6.1.8 (Accounts), Clause 6.1.26 (Absence of Certain Commercial Practices), Clause 6.1.28 (Broker) and Clause 6.1.21

charges, expenses, obligations, judgments, lost profits, diminution in value and deficiencies of any kind or character, including, without limitation, interest and penalties, whether or not involving a third party claim, which may be asserted or
secured against, sustained, suffered or incurred by Purchaser, the Company or any of such other persons and arises out of or in any manner is incident to, relates to or is attributable to: 

 (i) Any misrepresentation, misstatement, omission, breach of warranty or nonfulfillment of any obligation, covenant or condition on the part of Seller
(a) herein or in any Schedule or Exhibit hereto, or (b) in any certificate or other instrument or document furnished to the Purchaser in connection herewith; 
 (ii) Any liability of the Purchaser for any liability or obligation of the Company to be satisfied by Seller pursuant to the terms hereof, whether accrued, absolute, contingent or otherwise and whether known or
unknown, due or which became due;

 (iv) Any and all material actions, suits, proceedings, demands, assessments or judgments, including legal and other necessary and reasonable costs and
expenses, incident to any of the foregoing. 
  

	10.2	 Defense of Claims. In the event any claim, action, suit or proceeding is made or brought by any third party against the Company or Purchaser, or if any
governmental enforcement agency shall propose to issue an order, with respect to which Sellers may have liability under this Agreement, the Sellers shall be entitled to participate in, and, to the extent that they shall wish, to assume the defense
thereof, with independent counsel reasonably 



  

 24 









	 	 
satisfactory to such indemnified party. If the Sellers elect to assume the defense of any such third-party claim, the Sellers shall have the right to
contest, pay, settle or compromise any such claim on such terms and conditions as they may determine, provided that the Sellers shall not pay, settle or compromise any such claim without the prior written consent of the Purchaser, which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld. If the Sellers do not elect to assume the defense of any such claim, the Purchaser may engage counsel to assume the defense and may contest, pay, settle or compromise any such claim on such terms and conditions as
the Purchaser may determine. The fees and disbursements of such counsel shall be among the expenses for which Purchaser is indemnified pursuant to Clause 9 hereof. Purchaser and the Sellers, as the case may be, shall (as the other may
reasonably request) keep the other fully informed of such claim, action, suit or proceeding at all stages thereof whether or not such party is represented by its own counsel. 


  

	10.3	Dispute Resolution. Any dispute between Sellers and Purchaser relating to a claim for indemnification shall be resolved as follows: 

 (i) If the parties agree that the dispute is one involving financial matters, such dispute shall be referred to and determined by an appraiser mutually
acceptable to the parties. In the event they cannot agree on such selection, Purchaser and Seller shall each nominate an appraiser as its (or their) representative and the two appraisers so nominated shall jointly select a third appraiser. In such
event, the resolution of the dispute shall be decided by a majority of the three appraisers. The resolution of the dispute by the appraisers shall be final and binding upon all parties as to financial matters, but shall not extend to any
nonfinancial interpretation of this Agreement unless Purchaser and Seller shall mutually agree in writing to the contrary. 
 (ii) If the

	10.4	Effect of Purchaser’s Knowledge. Any knowledge of any matter by Purchaser or any disclosure to Purchaser by Seller of any matter shall not reduce or affect any
indemnification claim of Purchaser hereunder unless and except for any disclosures by Seller on any schedule hereto delivered at the time of execution hereof. 

  

	11.	RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS. 

  

	11.1	Each of the Sellers severally covenants with the Purchaser that he shall not:

on or be employed, engaged or interested in any business which would be in competition with any part of the Business as the Business was carried on at the Completion Date; or 

  

 25 









	11.1.2	at any time during the period of 3 years beginning with the Completion Date, deal with any person who is at the Completion Date, or who has been at any time during the period of 12
months immediately preceding that date, a client or customer of the Company; or 

  

	11.1.3	at any time during the period of 3 years beginning with the Completion Date, canvass, solicit or otherwise seek the custom of any person who is at the Completion Date, or who has
been at any time during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that date, a client or customer of the Company; or 

  

	11.1.4	at any time during the period of 3 years beginning with the Completion Date: 

 (a) offer employment to, enter into a contract for the services of, or attempt to entice away from the Company, any individual who is at the time of the offer or attempt, and was at the Completion Date, employed or
directly or indirectly engaged in an executive or managerial position with the Company; or 
 (b) procure or facilitate the making of any such
offer or attempt by any other person; or 
  

	11.1.5	at any time after Completion, use in the course of any business: 

 (a) the word “Innovaro”; or 
 (b) any trade or service mark, business or domain name, design or logo which, at Completion,
was or had been used by the Company; or 
 (c) anything which is, in the reasonable opinion of the Purchaser, capable of confusion with such
words, mark, name, design or logo; or 
  

	11.1.6	at any time during a period of 3 years beginning with the Completion Date, solicit or entice away from the Company any supplier to the Company who had supplied goods services to the
Company at any time during the 12 months immediately preceding the Completion Date, if that solicitation or enticement causes or would cause such supplier to cease supplying, or materially reduce its supply of, those goods or services to the
Company. 

  

	11.2	The covenants in this clause 11 are intended for the benefit of the Purchaser and the Company and apply to actions carried out by the Sellers in any capacity and whether directly or
indirectly, on the Sellers’ own behalf, on behalf of any other person or jointly with any other person. 

  

	11.3	Nothing in this clause 11 prevents the Sellers or any of them from holding for investment purposes only: 

 (a) any units of any authorised unit trust; or 
 (b) the Consideration Shares or other shares in the Purchaser; or 
  

 26 








 (c) not more than 5% of any class of shares or securities of any company traded on the American Stock
Exchange or the London Stock Exchange. 
  

	11.4	Each of the covenants in this clause 11 is a separate undertaking by each Seller in relation to himself and his interests and shall be enforceable by the Purchaser separately and
independently of its right to enforce any one or more of the other covenants contained in this clause 11. Each of the covenants in this clause 11 is considered fair and reasonable by the parties. If any restriction is found to be unenforceable, but
would be valid if any part of it were deleted or the period or area of application reduced, the restriction shall apply with such modifications as may be necessary to make it valid and enforceable. 

  

	11.5	The consideration for the undertakings contained in this clause 11 is included in the Purchase Price. 

  

	12.	FEES AND EXPENSES. The Seller, at their own cost, agree to be liable for and pay the following liabilities or expenses: 

 (i) Fees and expenses of any person for financial services rendered to the Sellers in connection with the sale contemplated by this Agreement;

	4.6	Subject to paragraph 4.7, in relation to each calendar year ending 30 June within the Earn-out Period, the Escrow Agent shall deliver Consideration Shares representing the

	4.7	The Purchaser may deduct from any Deferred Payment an amount in respect and satisfaction of any Claim which is subsisting and has not been settled in full by the Sellers at the time

considers just or appropriate. 

  

	5.9	Each party shall, with reasonable promptness, supply each other party with all information and give each other party access to all documentation and personnel as each other party
reasonably requires to make a submission under this paragraph 5. 

  

	5.10	The Expert shall act as an expert and not as an arbitrator. The Expert shall determine the amount of Relevant Turnover and any Deferred Payment, which may include any issue
involving the interpretation of any provision of this agreement, his jurisdiction to determine the matters and issues referred to him or his terms of reference. The Expert’s written decision on the matters referred to him shall be final and
