which would give rise to a claim under such policies. All
potentially insurable claims have been properly tendered to the
appropriate insurance carrier in compliance with any applicable
insurance policy notice provisions. All premiums due and payable
under all such policies have been fully paid, and such policies are
in material compliance. All such insurance policies are valid and
binding in accordance with their terms, except as such
enforceability may be subject to laws of general application
relating to bankruptcy, insolvency and the relief of debtors and
rules of law governing specific performance, injunctive relief or
other equitable remedies, and are in full force and effect. There
is no threat of termination of, or premium increase with respect
to, any of such policies.

Matters.

 

(a) Tax Returns for
Periods Ending Before the Closing Date. The Purchaser will prepare

(c) Liability for
Taxes. The Principal will be liable for, pay and indemnify and hold
harmless the Purchaser Indemnified Parties from and against (i) any
Tax with respect to the Principal or Target that is attributed to,
relates to, or arises in respect of any Pre-Closing Tax Period or
that portion of a Straddle Tax Period through the end of the
Closing Date; (ii) any Tax attributable to any breach of or
inaccuracy in any representation or warranty made in Section 3.10; (iii) any Tax

Party’s request) the provision of records and information
that are reasonably relevant to any such Tax Return, audit,
litigation or other proceeding and making employees available on a
mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and
explanation of any material provided hereunder, to the extent
reasonably available to such Party. Purchaser agrees to retain all
books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to Target
relating to any taxation period beginning before the Closing Date

assessment of Tax, Purchaser and the Principal will notify the
other in writing within fifteen (15) Business Days after receipt by
Purchaser or the Principal of written or oral notice of any pending
or threatened audit or assessment with respect to Taxes of Target
relating to any Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period. Within
fifteen (15) Business Days after the Principal’s receipt of
such a notice for a Pre-Closing Tax Period, the Principal may
elect, so long as Principal may reasonably be expected to have an
obligation to indemnify the Purchaser Indemnified Parties hereunder
with respect to such audit for the Pre-Closing Tax Period, by
written notice to Purchaser, to participate in the audit or
assessment in the name of Purchaser or Target, at the
Principal’s sole cost and expense. If the Principal so
elects, it will be solely responsible for the costs and expenses of
such participation. If the Principal elects to participate in such
a tax matter, Purchaser will inform the Principal of all material
developments and events relating to such matter (including
providing to the Principal copies of relevant portions of all
written or oral materials and communications relating to such
matter) and the Principal or its authorized representative will be
entitled, at the expense of the Principal, to attend and
participate in, all conferences, meetings and proceedings relating
to such defense. With respect to any such audit or assessment
that may reasonably be
expected to cause the Principal to have an obligation to indemnify
the Purchaser Indemnified Parties hereunder, Purchaser will not,
and will not permit Target to, compromise or otherwise settle such
audit or assessment without the prior written consent of the
Principal, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld,
conditioned or delayed.

transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other

must be paid by or on behalf of Principal when due, and Principal
will, at its own expense, file or cause to be filed all necessary

Party” and collectively, the “Purchaser Indemnified
Parties”) from, against and in respect of any claims,
losses, liabilities, damages, deficiencies, costs and expenses,
including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses of

that it will have no right of contribution from Target with respect

7.3 Indemnification by
Purchaser.

 

(a) Subject to the
terms and conditions of this Article VII, from and after the
Closing, Purchaser agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless
Principal, and its Affiliates, agents, representatives, successors
and assigns (each individually, a “Principal Indemnified
Party” and collectively, the “Principal Indemnified
Parties” and, each of the Principal Indemnified
Parties and the Purchaser Indemnified Parties being an
“Indemnified
Party”) for any Losses arising out of or resulting
from:

 

(i) any breach or
inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made by Purchaser in
Article V of this
Agreement; or

 

(ii) any failure by

covenant by or with respect to Target after the Closing) or the
Promissory Note.

 

7.4 Claims for
Indemnification. The procedures
for indemnification under this Agreement are as
follows:

 

(a) The Indemnified
Party seeking indemnification hereunder (a “Claimant”)
will promptly give notice to the Parties from which indemnification
is claimed (the “Indemnifying
Party”) of any demand, suit, assertion of liability or
claim. If the claim relates to an action, suit or proceeding filed
by another Person against the Claimant (a “Third Party
Claim”), then such notice will be given by the
Claimant within twenty (20) Business Days after written notice of
such action, suit or proceeding is given to the Claimant and will
include true, correct and complete copies of all suit, service and
claim documents; provided, however, that the failure or
delay of the Claimant to provide any such notice or deliver such
copies will not release the Indemnifying Party from any of its
obligations under this Article VII unless (and then
solely to the extent that) the Indemnifying Party is materially
prejudiced thereby.

 

(b) With respect to
claims solely between the Parties, following receipt of notice from
the Claimant of a claim, the Indemnifying Party will have
forty-five (45) days to make such investigation of the claim as the
Indemnifying Party reasonably deems necessary or desirable, and the
Claimant agrees to make available to the Indemnifying Party and its
authorized representatives all information relevant and necessary
to substantiate the claim, except to the extent any attorney-client
privilege would thereby be violated. If the Claimant and the
Indemnifying Party agree at or prior to the expiration of such
forty-five (45)-day period to the validity and amount of such
claim, then the Indemnifying Party will promptly pay to the
Claimant the full amount of the claim, subject to the terms and
limitations hereof. If the Claimant and the Indemnifying Party do
not reach any such agreement within such forty-five (45)-day
period, then the Claimant may seek an appropriate remedy at law or
in equity, as applicable, subject to the terms and limitations
hereof.

 




 

18








 






 

(c) With respect to any
Third Party Claim, if (i) the Third Party Claim seeks solely
monetary damages, (ii) the Indemnifying Party confirms, in writing,
its obligation to indemnify and hold the Claimant harmless with
respect to such Losses, (iii) the Indemnifying Party reasonably
demonstrates that it has the financial resources necessary to
defend the matter and fulfill its indemnity obligation, (iv)
settlement of, or consent to entry of judgment with respect to, the
Third Party Claim is not likely to establish a precedent materially
adverse to the Claimant, and (v) the Indemnifying Party covenants
to and will defend the Third Party Claim actively, diligently and
in good faith, then the Indemnifying Party will, subject to the
rights of or duties to any insurer or other third Person having
liability therefor, be entitled to, and the Claimant will provide
the Indemnifying Party with the right to be exercised within thirty
(30) days after receipt of such notice to, assume and maintain
control of the defense and settlement of such Third Party Claim
(with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Claimant, which
counsel will be at the sole expense of the Indemnifying Party);
provided,
however, that, if
the Indemnifying Party will have exercised such right to assume
such control, then the Claimant will be entitled to participate in
the defense, compromise or settlement of such Third Party Claim and
to employ counsel at its own expense to assist in the handling of
such Third Party Claim and, in such event, counsel selected by the
Indemnifying Party (and reasonably acceptable to the Claimant) will
be required to reasonably cooperate with such counsel of the
Claimant in such defense, compromise or settlement. If the
Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of the Third Party
Claim, does not comply with the foregoing provisions of this
Section 7.4(c), or
is not entitled to assume such defense, then the Claimant will be
entitled to assume and control such defense and to settle or agree
to pay in full such Third Party Claim without the consent of the
Indemnifying Party without prejudice to the ability of the Claimant
to enforce its claim for indemnification against the Indemnifying
Party hereunder. So long as the Indemnifying Party that is
permitted and has assumed such control and defense is defending
actively, diligently and in good faith any such Third Party Claim
against the Claimant, and otherwise complying with the terms of
this Section
7.4(c), the Claimant will not settle or compromise such
claim or demand. If the Indemnifying Party is permitted and has
assumed and is diligently maintaining the defense of any such claim
or demand as set forth above, then it will have the power and
authority to settle or consent to the entry of judgment of such
Third Party Claim without the consent of the Claimant only if the
judgment or settlement results solely in the payment by the
Indemnifying Party of the full amount of money damages and includes
a full and complete release of the Claimant from any and all
liability thereunder; provided, that the Indemnifying Party will
have made arrangements for the payment of all such damages in a
manner reasonably satisfactory to the Claimant. In all other
events, the Indemnifying Party will not consent to the entry of
judgment or enter into any settlement without the prior written
consent of the Claimant.

 

7.5 Tax Treatment of
Indemnification Payments. All
indemnification payments under this Agreement will be treated as an
adjustment to the Purchase Price, except to the extent that
applicable tax Law does not permit such treatment.

 

7.6 No
Duplication. Any Losses for
which any Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification under
this Article VII
will be determined without duplication of recovery by reason of the
state of facts giving rise to such Losses constituting a breach of
more than one representation, warranty, covenant or
agreement.
