Stock Purchase AGREEMENT


 


This STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is entered into as of January 18, 2018, by and among LRAD Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Purchaser”), Genasys Holding S.L., a limited liability company organized under the laws of Spain (the “Company”), each of the holders of the capital stock of the Company (each a “Stockholder” and collectively, the “Stockholders”), and Pablo Colom Imaz, an individual resident in Spain, as representative of the Stockholders (the “Representative”). Capitalized terms used herein are defined in Exhibit A hereto.


 


Recitals


 


A.     The Stockholders collectively own all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the Company (the “Company Shares”), with each Stockholder owning that number of Company Shares set forth opposite such Stockholder’s name on Exhibit B hereto;


 


B.     The Stockholders desire to sell to Purchaser, and Purchaser desire to purchase from the Stockholders, all of the capital stock of the Company on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein; and


 


C.     In order to induce Purchaser to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, certain of the Stockholders are entering into Restrictive Covenants Agreements in favor of Purchaser.


 


NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the mutual covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement, the Parties agree as follows:


 


ARTICLE 1

THE SALE OF COMPANY SHARES


 


1.1     Sale of Company Shares. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, on the Closing Date, the Stockholders shall sell, transfer, assign, convey and deliver to Purchaser, and Purchaser shall purchase from the Stockholders, the Company Shares, free and clear of all Liens.


 


1.2     Purchase Price. As full and complete consideration for the sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance and delivery of the Company Shares to Purchaser, and for all representations, warranties, covenants and obligations of the Stockholders in this Agreement, Purchaser agrees to pay the Stockholders cash in an amount equal to One Million Nine Hundred Thousand Euros (€1,900,000) (the “Purchase Price”). The Purchase Price is premised upon the Company having as of the Closing, (a) Working Capital of Eighty Thousand Euros (€80,000) (the “Working Capital Target”), (b) Company Debt equal to One Million Four Hundred Thousand Euros (€1,400,000) (the “Company Debt Target”) and (c) Severance Obligations equal to Three Hundred Ninety Thousand Euros (€390,000) (the “Severance Target”). The Purchase Price shall be (1) increased by the amount, if any, that the Working Capital as of Closing exceeds the Working Capital Target or decreased by the amount, if any, that the Working Capital as of Closing is less than the Working Capital Target (provided, however, that the Purchase Price will not be adjusted based on Working Capital as of the Closing if the Working Capital as of Closing is between Sixty Thousand Euros (€60,000) and One Hundred Thousand Euros (€100,000)), (2) increased by the amount, if any, that the Company Debt as of Closing is less than the Company Debt Target or decreased by the amount, if any, that the Company Debt as of Closing exceeds the Company Debt Target and (3) increased by the amount, if any, that the Severance Obligations as of Closing is less than the Severance Target or decreased by the amount, if any, that the Company’s Severance Obligations as of Closing exceeds the Severance Target. The Purchase Price shall be paid as provided in the remainder of this ARTICLE 1.

1.3     Payment of the Purchase Price.


 


(a)      Pre-Closing Purchase Price. Not later than two (2) Business Days before the Closing Date, the Stockholders, through the Company, shall prepare and deliver to Purchaser a statement (the “Pre-Closing Statement”) setting forth the Company’s good faith estimate of, each as of the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Closing Date, (i) the Working Capital, (ii) the Company Debt, (iii) the Severance Obligations, and (iv) the Purchase Price as adjusted by the foregoing in accordance with Section 1.2 (the “Estimated Purchase Price”), together with a consolidated balance sheet of the Company estimated in good faith as of the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Closing Date and all relevant backup materials, in detail reasonably acceptable to Purchaser. The Pre-Closing Statement and such consolidated balance sheet shall be prepared in accordance with IFRS and Spanish GAAP. From the delivery of the Pre-Closing Statement until the Closing Date, Purchaser shall be provided complete and accurate copies of, and have reasonable access upon reasonable notice at reasonable times during business hours to the work papers and supporting records of the Company and its accountants to verify the accuracy of the Pre-Closing Statement. Prior to the Closing Date, the Parties will mutually agree on each of the elements of the Pre-Closing Statement.


 


(b)      Payment of Purchase Price at Closing. Subject to the satisfaction of all of the conditions set forth in this Agreement, at the Closing, Purchaser shall deliver to the Stockholders the Estimated Purchase Price, minus the Escrow Amount, by wire transfer of immediately available funds. Such amount shall be paid to each Stockholder in the proportions provided in Exhibit G. At the Closing Date, Purchaser shall leave the Escrow Amount in the Bank Account and maintain the Escrow Amount in the Bank Account until the adjustment of the Purchase Price has been finalized pursuant to Section 1.3(c). The payment of the Purchase Price and the completion of transactions contemplated hereby shall be subject to the terms of the Deed of Sale and Purchase and receipt by the Stockholders of the Purchase Price as contemplated herein and therein.


 


(c)      Purchase Price Adjustment. 


 


(i)     Not later than 120 days after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall deliver to the Representative a statement (the “Closing Statement”) setting forth the Working Capital as of the Closing, the Company Debt as of the Closing, the Severance Obligations as of the Closing, and the Purchase Price as adjusted by the foregoing in accordance with Section 1.2, together with a consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of the Closing and all relevant backup materials, in detail reasonably acceptable to Representative. The Pre-Closing Statement and such consolidated balance sheet shall be prepared in accordance with IFRS and Spanish GAAP. From the delivery of the Closing Statement until such time as the Closing Statement and final Purchase Price, as adjusted, shall have been finally determined pursuant to this Section 1.3, the Representative and his accountants (at the expense of the Stockholders) shall, upon reasonable notice and during normal business hours, be permitted to discuss with Purchaser and its accountants the Closing Statement and shall be provided complete and accurate copies of, and have reasonable access (including electronic access, to the extent reasonably available) upon reasonable notice at reasonable times during normal business hours to the work papers and supporting records of Purchaser and its accountants so as to allow the Representative and his accountants to verify the accuracy of the Closing Statement.

(ii)     If the Representative disputes the Closing Statement, the Representative shall notify Purchaser in writing (the “Dispute Notice”) of the amount, nature and basis of such dispute, within 30 days after delivery of the Closing Statement and such disagreement shall be resolved in accordance with Section 1.4.


 


(iii)     Immediately upon the earlier to occur of (A) the expiration of the 30 day period for giving the Dispute Notice, if no such notice is given, or (B) notification by the Representative to Purchaser that no such notice will be given, or (C) the resolution of disputes, if any, pursuant to Section 1.4, any adjustments to the Purchase Price shall be paid as follows: (1) if the final Purchase Price as adjusted to reflect the Working Capital, the Company Debt and the Severance Obligations set forth on the Closing Statement exceeds the Estimated Purchase Price, then Purchaser will pay such excess to the Stockholders in the proportions provided in Exhibit G or (2) if the final Purchase Price as adjusted to reflect the Working Capital, the Company Debt and the Severance Obligations set forth on the Closing Statement is less than the Estimated Purchase Price, then such amount will be released to Purchaser from the Bank Account. Following payment of the amounts contemplated by the immediately preceding sentence, if any, the funds remaining in the Bank Account will be released to the Representative for delivery to the Stockholders in the proportions provided in Exhibit G and the Bank Account will be terminated.


 


1.4     Dispute Resolution. Any Dispute Notice delivered under this ARTICLE 1 shall specify those items or amounts as to which the Representative disagrees, and the Representative shall be deemed to have agreed with all items not raised in the Dispute Notice. If there is such a dispute, Purchaser and the Representative shall first negotiate in good faith to reach agreement on the disputed items or amounts. If Purchaser and the Representative are unable to resolve the dispute within 30 days after delivery of the Dispute Notice, then any remaining items in dispute shall be submitted to Madrid office of Kreston International (the “Neutral Accountant”). All determinations and calculations pursuant to this Section 1.4 shall consider only those items as to which the Representative has disagreed, shall be in writing and shall be delivered to Purchaser and the Representative as promptly as practicable. The determination of the Neutral Accountant as to the resolution of any dispute shall be binding and conclusive upon all Parties, with each Party expressly waiving any right such Party may have to litigate or arbitrate any matter covered by this Section 1.4. A judgment on the determination made by the Neutral Accountant pursuant to this Section 1.4 may be entered in and enforced by any court of competent jurisdiction. The fees and expenses of the Neutral Accountant in connection with the resolution of disputes pursuant to this Section 1.4 shall be borne by the Stockholders, on the one hand, and Purchaser, on the other hand, in such amount(s) as shall be determined by the Neutral Accountant based on the proportion that the aggregate amount of disputed items submitted to the Neutral Accountant that is unsuccessfully disputed by Purchaser, on the one hand, or the Representative, on the other hand, as determined by the Neutral Accountant, bears to the total amount of such disputed items so referred to the Neutral Accountant for resolution.


 


1.5     Repayment of Debt Obligations. In addition to payment of the Purchase Price as set forth above, Purchaser shall pay at the request of and on behalf of the Company at Closing by wire transfer of immediately available funds the loans by certain Stockholders as listed on Schedule 1.5 (the “Stockholder Loans”), which the Stockholders agree amount to €368,538 in the aggregate as of November 30, 2017 and are allocated among certain Stockholders as follows: (i) €325,407 (€321,789 will be paid at Closing and €3,618 is to be withheld for applicable taxes) to Investment Fund Continental S.L.; (ii) €27,107 to Adara Ventures SICAR; and (iii) €16,024 to Caixa Capital Pyme Innovación SCR. Such payment will thereafter represent an intercompany loan by Purchaser to the Company.

1.6     Closing. 


 


(a)     The consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are in this Agreement referred to as the “Closing.” The Closing shall occur by physical exchange of documentation and execution of the public documents indicated in this Agreement at the Notary office, on the date that is three Business Days after each of the conditions set forth in ARTICLE 5 shall have been satisfied or waived in writing (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be fulfilled at the Closing, but subject to the fulfillment or waiver in writing of such conditions) or at such other time, or by such other means, as the Representative and Purchaser may agree in writing.


 


(b)     On the Closing Date, in one and the same act, the Parties shall formalize before the Notary the transfer of the Company Shares to Purchaser and the following steps shall be taken:


 


(i)     delivery to the Notary by the Stockholders, for inclusion in the Deed of Sale and Purchase, of a certificate issued by the directors of the Company stating that all of the statutory or bylaw provisions have been complied with in order to permit the sale of the Company Shares to Purchaser;


 


(ii)     formalization of the Deed of Sale and Purchase, which shall also include the appointment of the Representative by the Stockholders;


 


(iii)     payment of the Purchase Price to be paid by Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement and grant by the Stockholders, in the Deed of Sale and Purchase, of an acknowledgment of receipt of the amount paid;


 


(iv)     delivery to the Notary, by each Stockholder, of the deeds of sale and purchase or certificates of ownership of the Company Shares, so that the Notary records the relevant notes on such deeds or certificates;


 


(v)     registration of the sale and purchase on the register of registered shares of the Company by way of an entry signed by the directors of the Company;


 


(vi)     delivery to, or placement at disposal of, Purchaser by the Stockholders of all such updated books of account and other books and original documentation of the Companies, that may be legally required or necessary or merely appropriate for the management of the Companies;


 


(vii)     delivery by the Stockholders to Purchaser of the written resignations of the directors of each of the Companies, secretaries and, as the case may be, deputy secretaries of their managing bodies, expressly declaring that they are all up to date in collection of all their compensation and that they have nothing to claim for any item from any of such Companies; and


 


(viii)     execution and notarization by Purchaser of the deed of declaration of the new sole shareholder of the Company.


 


1.7     Withholding Obligations. Each of Purchaser and the Stockholders shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to any provision of this Agreement to any Person such amounts as it reasonably determines that it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or any other applicable Law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld by Purchaser or the Company, such withheld amounts shall be (a) remitted by the applicable withholding party to the applicable Taxing authority and (b) treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Persons in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by Purchaser or the Company. Purchaser shall also have the right to collect Forms W-8 or W-9, or such other forms relating to United States federal withholding obligations as may be applicable, from such Persons.

As a material inducement to Purchaser to enter into this Agreement, the Stockholders herby represent and warrant to Purchaser as of the date hereof as follows, except as expressly set forth in the disclosure schedule delivered by the Stockholders to Purchaser on or before the date of this Agreement:


 


2.1     Organization. To the extent that each Stockholder is not an individual: (a) such Stockholder is a corporation, partnership, limited liability company or trust duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization; and (b) such Stockholder has all necessary power and authority to carry on its business as presently conducted. Each of the Companies is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation and has all requisite corporate power and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and to carry on its business as now being conducted. Each of the Companies is duly qualified to transact business, and is in good standing as a foreign corporation in each jurisdiction where the character of its activities requires such qualification, except where the failure to be so licensed, qualified or in good standing would not have a Material Adverse Effect. The Stockholders, through the Company, have heretofore made available to Purchaser accurate and complete copies of the Organizational Documents, as currently in effect, of the Companies and have made available to Purchaser the minute books and stock records of the Companies. Neither of the Companies is in default under or in violation of any provision of its Organizational Documents. The stock record books of each of the Companies made available to Purchaser are complete and the minutes prepared in the period after December 19, 2001 are complete and signed, but are not transcribed to a minute book. Schedule 2.1 contains a correct and complete list of all of the officers and directors of each of the Companies.


 


2.2     Authorization. Each of the Company and the Stockholders has full corporate power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform its obligations under this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company and each of the Stockholders and the performance by the Company and the Stockholders of their obligations hereunder and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement have been duly and validly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Company and the Stockholders, subject to the adoption of this Agreement by the Stockholders. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Company and the Stockholders and constitutes the valid and binding agreement of the Company and the Stockholders, enforceable against them in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and other similar Laws affecting the enforceability of creditors’ rights generally, general equitable principles and the discretion of courts in granting equitable remedies (collectively, the “Enforceability Exceptions”).


 


2.3     No Violations. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the fulfillment of and compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement do not and will not violate or conflict with, constitute a breach of or default under, result in the loss of any benefit under, or permit the acceleration of any obligation under, (i) the Organizational Documents of the Companies or any Stockholder, (ii) in any material respect any contract, commitment, instrument or other agreement to which either of the Companies or any Stockholder is a party or by which any of them (or any of their respective properties or assets) is subject or bound, (iii) any judgment, decree or order of any court or governmental authority or agency to which either of the Companies or any Stockholder is a party or by which either of the Companies or any of their respective properties or assets is bound, or (iv) any Law applicable to either of the Companies or any Stockholder. Except as listed on Schedule 2.3, no consent, approval, order or authorization of, or registration, declaration or filing with, any governmental agency or public or regulatory unit, agency, body or authority with respect to the Companies is required in connection with the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement by the Company or any Stockholder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement by the Company or the Stockholders.

Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the Representative shall have the exclusive power and authority (i) at the reasonable expense of the Companies, to cause the income Tax Returns for the last separate taxable year of the Group and the Companies ending as a result of the Closing to be prepared and filed in accordance with historic practices and procedures of the Companies and applicable Law, based on a closing of the books of Companies as of immediately before the Closing, provided that the Representative shall afford Purchaser a reasonable opportunity to review the proposed form of any such income Tax Return of the Group and the Companies and shall not file any such Tax Return without the prior written consent of Purchaser, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, (ii) to control the conduct of the Companies in respect of any tax audit or examination and any administrative appeal or litigation relating thereto, to the extent it relates to any Taxes with respect to which the Stockholders have an obligation to indemnify the Indemnitees if such Taxes are payable (the costs of any such audit or examination shall be borne by the Companies until the issuance of a notice of deficiency, whereas the costs of any administrative appeal or litigation after the issuance of a notice of deficiency shall be borne by Stockholders), (iii) to determine whether and to what extent to amend any Tax return filed before the Closing Date or which is described in the immediately preceding clause (i), and (iv) whether and to what extent the Companies shall extend or waive any statute of limitations for the assessment of any Tax with respect to which the Stockholders have an obligation to indemnify the Indemnitees if such Tax is payable. Purchaser shall have the right to participate in any such tax audit, examination, appeal or litigation (collectively, a “Tax Proceeding”) at Purchaser’s sole expense, and, notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, to jointly control with the Representative any such tax proceeding if the amount claimed by the taxing authority in a notice of deficiency would result in a liability to the Companies that exceeds the amount of Damages for which Stockholders would be obligated to indemnify the Indemnitees pursuant to ARTICLE 6. In no event shall the Representative settle any such Tax Proceeding without Purchaser’s consent if such settlement would materially adversely affect the Companies or Purchaser with respect to any period after the Closing or result in any material liability on the part of the Companies or Purchaser for which the Stockholders are not obligated to indemnify the Indemnitees pursuant to ARTICLE 6.

(b)     Tax Periods Beginning Before and Ending After the Closing Date. Purchaser shall prepare or cause to be prepared and file or cause to be filed any Tax Returns of the Group and the Companies for Tax periods which begin before the Closing Date and end after the Closing Date. Purchaser and the Companies shall afford the Representative a reasonable opportunity to review the proposed form of any state income Tax Return of the Group and the Companies for any period that begins before and ends after the Closing Date and shall not file any such Tax Return without the prior written consent of the Representative, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Revisions reasonably requested by the Representative to such proposed Tax Returns shall be considered in good faith by the Purchaser. For purposes of this Agreement, in the case of any Taxes that are imposed on a periodic basis and are payable for a Tax period that includes (but does not end on) the Closing Date, the portion of such Tax that relates to the portion of such Tax period ending on the Closing Date shall (i) in the case of any Taxes other than Taxes based upon or related to income or receipts, be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire Tax period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the Tax period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire Tax period, and (ii) in the case of any Tax based upon or related to income or receipts, be deemed equal to the amount which would be payable if the relevant Tax period ended on the Closing Date.


 


(c)     Cooperation on Tax Matters.


 


(i)     Purchaser, the Companies and the Representative shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other Party, in connection with the filing of Tax Returns pursuant to this Agreement and any audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the other Party’s request) the provision of records and information which are reasonably relevant to any such 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. The Companies agree to (A) retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to the Companies relating to any Taxable period beginning before the Closing Date until the expiration of the statute of limitations (and, to the extent notified by Purchaser or the Representative, any extensions thereof) of the respective Taxable periods, and to abide by all record retention agreements entered into with any Taxing authority, and (B) give the Representative reasonable written notice prior to transferring, destroying or discarding any such books and records and, if Representative so requests, the Companies shall allow Representative to take possession of such books and records. Purchaser and the Representative further agree, upon request, to use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any certificate or other document from any governmental authority or any other Person as may be necessary to mitigate, reduce or eliminate any Tax that could be imposed (including, but not limited to, with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby).


 


(ii)     The Representative shall promptly notify Purchaser and the Company, and Purchaser and the Company shall promptly notify the Representative, in writing upon receipt by him or it of notice of any pending or threatened state, central, regional, local or foreign Tax audits or assessments relating to the income, properties or operations of Companies before the Closing Date.


 


(iii)     Purchaser shall not (and shall not cause or permit the Companies to) (A) take any action that would give rise to any item of income, gain, loss, deduction, expense or credit to the Companies for income Tax purposes on the Closing Date, other than the conduct of the historic business of the Companies in the Ordinary Course; (B) file any amendment of any income Tax Return of the Companies for any period ending on or before the Closing Date or which includes the Closing Date, without the prior written consent of the Representative, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. If any refund of Taxes is received by the Company in respect of any period ending before or apportionable to the period before the Closing, the amount of such refund shall be promptly remitted to the Stockholders and included in the Purchase Price in the proportions provided in Exhibit G. 


 


(d)     Certain Taxes. The Stockholders shall pay their own income tax derived from the transfer of the Company Shares, when applicable. Other transfer, documentary, stamp and registration Taxes and fees (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with this Agreement shall be paid by Purchaser when due, and Purchaser will, at its expense, file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to all such Taxes.

4.4     Public Statements and Press Releases. Purchaser may issue a public announcement of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement upon the Closing. Representative shall be afforded an opportunity to review and comment on the form and content of such public announcement prior to its release and Purchaser shall endeavor, consistent with its obligations to the various regulatory authorities, to accommodate Representative’s reasonable requests. Except as set forth in the immediately preceding sentences, none of the Stockholders, the Company or Purchaser shall issue or release any public announcement, press release, statement or acknowledgment of the existence of, or the terms, conditions and status of, the transactions provided for herein, without the prior approval of the other as to the content and time of release of and the media in which such statement or announcement is to be made and such parties will use commercially reasonable efforts to consult with one another before making other public statements or responding to any press inquiry with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, except as may be required by law or any governmental agency. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained herein shall prevent any Party at any time from furnishing any information to any governmental agency if required by applicable law nor prevent Purchaser from issuing any release when it believes, based upon advice of counsel, it is legally required to do so.


 


4.5     Stockholder Payment Allocations. Each of the Stockholders (a) acknowledges and agrees that the allocation and payment of the Purchase Price set forth on Exhibit G and as instructed in Section 1.3(b) are different from the ownership percentages of the Company Shares as set forth on Exhibit B, (b) represents that such allocation and payment are consistent with the agreement and understanding among and between the Stockholders and (c) releases Purchaser and the Company from any and all Damages related to payment in accordance with such allocation instructions.

(i)     any Knowing Misrepresentation, fraud, or the cause or knowledge of a deliberate or willful breach of any representations, warranties or covenants of the Stockholders under this Agreement or in any certificate, schedule or exhibit delivered pursuant hereto (collectively, “Fraud Claims”);


 



-29-




 




 


(ii)     any Taxes of the Companies attributable to the period before and including the Closing Date (collectively, “Tax Claims”);


 


(iii)     any breach of the Fundamental Representations (collectively, “Fundamental Claims”); provided that, for purposes of determining whether such breach has occurred, the terms “material,” “materiality” and “Material Adverse Effect” and other similar terms shall be disregarded and given no effect;


 


(iv)     other than claims arising under or contemplated by this Agreement or any agreement entered in connection herewith, any claim by a Stockholder or former stockholder of either of the Companies, in their capacity as such, or any other Person, in each case to the extent seeking to assert, or to the extent based upon: (A) the ownership or rights to ownership of any ownership interest of either of the Companies; (B) any rights of a Stockholder, including any option, preemptive rights, rights to notice or to vote, granted to such Person by applicable Law, either of the Companies or any rights under the Companies’ Organizational Documents that occurred at or prior to the Closing; and (C) any claim that his, her or its shares were wrongfully repurchased by either of the Companies or any Stockholders (collectively, “Stock Claims”);


 


(v)     any matter set forth in Exhibit E (collectively, “Specific Indemnity Claims”); and


 


(vi)     other than Fraud Claims, Tax Claims, Fundamental Claims, Stock Claims and Specific Indemnity Claims, any other breach of any representation, warranty or covenant of the Stockholders under this Agreement or in any schedule or exhibit delivered pursuant hereto, or by reason of any Legal Proceeding asserted or instituted growing out of any matter or thing constituting a breach of such representations, warranties or covenants (collectively, “General Claims”); provided that, for purposes of determining whether such breach has occurred, the terms “material,” “materiality” and “Material Adverse Effect” and other similar terms shall be disregarded and given no effect.


 


(b)     From and after the Closing, and subject to the terms and limitations set forth in this ARTICLE 6, each Stockholder shall indemnify and defend the Indemnitees in respect of, and hold them harmless against, any and all Damages incurred or suffered by the Indemnitees by reason of, relating to or constituting any failure of such Stockholder to have good and valid title to the issued and outstanding Company Shares issued in the name of such Stockholder, free and clear of all Liens.

6.2     Indemnification Claims. An Indemnitee seeking indemnification hereunder shall make claims for indemnification by giving written notice thereof to the Representative promptly on discovery and in any event within the period in which indemnification claims can be made hereunder. If indemnification is sought for a claim or liability asserted by a third party, the Indemnitee shall also give written notice thereof to the Representative promptly after it receives notice of the claim or liability being asserted, but the failure to do so shall not relieve the Indemnifying Stockholders from any liability except to the extent that it is prejudiced by the failure or delay in giving such notice. Such notice shall summarize the basis for the claim for indemnification and any claim or liability being asserted by a third party. Within twenty (20) days after receiving such notice the Representative shall give written notice to the Indemnitee stating whether it disputes the claim for indemnification and whether it will defend against any third party claim or liability at its own cost and expense. If the Representative fails to give notice that it disputes an indemnification claim within twenty (20) days after receipt of notice thereof, it shall be deemed to have accepted and agreed to the claim, which shall become immediately due and payable. The Representative shall be entitled to direct the defense against a third party claim or liability with counsel selected by it (subject to the consent of the Indemnitee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) as long as the Representative is conducting a good faith and diligent defense. The Indemnitee shall at all times have the right to fully participate at its own expense in the defense of a third party claim or liability, directly or through counsel; provided, however, that if the named parties to the Legal Proceeding include both the Representative and the Indemnitee and the Indemnitee is advised that representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate under applicable standards of professional conduct, the Indemnitee may engage separate counsel at its own expense. If no such notice of intent to dispute and defend a third party claim or liability is given by the Representative, or if such good faith and diligent defense is not being or ceases to be conducted by the Representative, the Indemnitee shall have the right, at the expense of the Representative, to undertake the defense of such claim or liability (with counsel selected by the Representative), and to compromise or settle it, with consent of the Representative, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. If the third party claim or liability is one that by its nature cannot be defended solely by the Representative, then the Indemnitee shall make available such information and assistance as the Representative may reasonably request and shall cooperate with the Representative in such defense, at the expense of the Indemnifying Stockholders.


 


6.3     Survival of Representations and Warranties. Unless otherwise specified in this Section 6.3 or elsewhere in this Agreement, all provisions of this Agreement shall survive the Closing and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with their terms until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations; provided, however, that except in the case of fraud or a Knowing Misrepresentation, all representations and warranties that are covered by the indemnification obligations in Section 6.1(a) shall expire on the date eighteen (18) months following the Closing Date; provided, further, that the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4, 2.5, and 2.14 (the “Fundamental Representations”) shall survive until 30 days after the expiration of the last statute of limitations applicable to the matter that is the subject of the claim relating to such representation or warranty.


 


6.4     Limitations.


 


(a)     Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the liability of each Indemnifying Stockholder to provide any indemnification to any Indemnitee and the right of the Indemnitees to indemnification under Section 6.1 (or otherwise) will be limited in the case of each Indemnifying Stockholder to an aggregate amount equal to the amount specified for such Indemnifying Stockholder on Exhibit H. In addition and without limiting the foregoing, the Indemnifying Stockholders shall not be liable for Damages under Section 6.1 for Damages arising from General Claims until the aggregate amount of all Damages from all such claims exceeds €25,000 (the “Deductible”), in which event the Indemnifying Stockholders shall only be required to pay or be liable for Damages in excess of the Deductible.


 



-31-




 




 


(b)     Payments by the Indemnifying Stockholders pursuant to Section 6.1 in respect of any Damages shall be limited to the amount of any liability or damage that remains after deducting therefrom any insurance proceeds and any indemnity, contribution or other similar payment actually received by the Indemnitees in respect of any such claim, such proceeds and payments being net of any Taxes thereon and any costs incurred by the Indemnitees in seeking collection there and premium increases resulting therefrom. The Indemnitees shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to recover under insurance policies or indemnity, contribution or other similar agreements for any Damages prior to seeking indemnification under this Agreement.


 


(c)     Payments by Indemnifying Stockholders pursuant to Section 6.1 in respect of any Damages shall be reduced by an amount equal to the net income Tax savings actually received by such Indemnitees by reason of such Damages (after taking into account any income Tax cost incurred by such Indemnitees by reason of such payment) for the taxable year in which such Damages are incurred. In the event that an indemnification payment shall be due before such Tax savings have been actually received (i.e., before the due date of the income Tax Return to which such Tax savings relate), the indemnification payment paid by the Indemnifying Stockholders to the Indemnitees shall be computed without taking into account such Tax savings, and the Indemnitees shall be required to pay back to the Indemnifying Stockholders an amount equal to such Tax savings when they are actually received. For the avoidance of doubt, the computation of the reduction to Damages pursuant to this Section 6.4(a) shall not take into account any loss or credit carryforwards to taxable years prior or subsequent to the taxable year in which the Damages are incurred. 


 


(d)     In no event shall any Indemnifying Stockholder be liable to any Indemnitees for any punitive, incidental, consequential, special or indirect Damages relating to the breach or alleged breach of this Agreement, other than any such Damages actually awarded and paid to an unaffiliated Person in connection with third party claims. 


 


(e)     Each Indemnitee shall take, and cause its Affiliates to take, all reasonable steps to mitigate any Damages upon becoming aware of any event or circumstance that would be reasonably expected to, or does, give rise thereto, including incurring costs only to the minimum extent necessary to remedy the breach that gives rise to such Damages.


 


6.5     Tax Treatment. The Parties agree to treat any indemnity payment made pursuant to this ARTICLE 6 as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for all Tax purposes.


 


6.6     Exclusive Remedies. Except for such equitable remedies as may be available to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement (including specific performance or injunctive relief) and claims arising from fraud on the part of the Stockholders in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that its sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all claims for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement, shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this ARTICLE 6. In furtherance of the foregoing, Purchaser hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted under Law, any and all rights, claims and causes of action for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement it may have against the Indemnifying Stockholders and their Affiliates and each of their respective Representatives arising under or based upon any Law, except pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this ARTICLE 6 and except for such equitable remedies as may be available to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement (including specific performance or injunctive relief) and claims arising from fraud on the part of the Stockholders in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

-35-




 




 


9.3     Disclosure Schedules. Nothing in the disclosure schedules delivered by the Stockholders to Purchaser under this Agreement shall be adequate to disclose an exception to a representation or warranty made in this Agreement unless such disclosure schedule identifies the exception with reasonable particularity and describes the relevant facts in reasonable detail. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the mere listing (or inclusion of a copy) of a document or other item shall not be adequate to disclose an exception to a representation or warranty made in this Agreement, unless the representation or warranty has to do with the existence of the document or other item itself. Any exception to any representations or warranties disclosed on one disclosure schedule shall constitute an exception to any other representations or warranties made in this Agreement only if (a) the substance of such exception is reasonably disclosed on the applicable disclosure schedule or (b) a specific cross-reference to a disclosure on another disclosure schedule, which also reasonably discloses the substance of the exception, is made.


 


9.4     Time of the Essence; Computation of Time. Time is of the essence for each and every provision of this Agreement. Whenever the last day for the exercise of any privilege or the discharge of any duty hereunder shall fall upon a day other than a Business Day, the Party having such privilege or duty may exercise such privilege or discharge such duty on the next succeeding Business Day.


 


9.5     Assignment; Successors in Interest. No assignment or transfer by Purchaser or the Company of its respective rights and obligations under this Agreement shall be made except with the prior written consent of the other Party. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the Parties and their permitted successors and assigns, and any reference to a Party shall also be a reference to a permitted successor or assign.


 


9.6     Survival of Covenants. The covenants and agreements of the Parties set forth in ARTICLE 4 and to be performed following the Closing shall survive the Closing and remain in full force and effect until performed or waived by the appropriate Party.


 


9.7     Controlling Law. This Agreement, and any claim, controversy or dispute arising out of, or relating to, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the performance of services hereunder or thereunder, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal Laws of the State of Delaware without reference to such State’s choice of law rules. 


 


9.8     Entire Agreement. This Agreement supersedes all negotiations, agreements and understandings among the Parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement, and this Agreement and the Releases constitute the entire agreement among the Parties; provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement shall affect the validity or enforceability of the Confidentiality Agreement. 


 


9.9     Amendment, Modification and Waiver. The Parties may amend or modify this Agreement in any respect. Any such amendment or modification shall be in writing. The waiver by a Party of any breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not constitute or operate as a waiver of any other breach of such provision or of any other provision hereof, nor shall any failure to enforce any provision hereof operate as a waiver of such provision or of any other provision hereof.


 


9.10     Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction will, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction will not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. To the extent permitted by Law, the Parties waive any provision of Law which renders any such provision prohibited or unenforceable in any respect.


 


9.11     Counterparts; Electronic Signatures. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, and it shall not be necessary in making proof of this Agreement or the terms hereof to produce more than one of such counterparts. Execution of this Agreement electronically and delivery of this Agreement by any Party of a signature page electronically shall be valid and deemed to be delivery of an originally executed signature, provided that either Party shall provide an original signature page upon request by the other Party.

9.12     No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Other than the Indemnitees’ rights under ARTICLE 6, nothing expressed or implied in this Agreement is intended, or shall be construed, to confer upon or give any Person other than the Parties, and their successors or assigns, any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement, or result in such Person being deemed a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement.


 


9.13     Jurisdiction and Forum. 


 


(a)     Each Party irrevocably agrees that Legal Proceeding (whether at law, in equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise) arising out of, or relating to, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the performance of services hereunder or any oral representations made or alleged to be made in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (an “Action”) shall be finally settled in San Diego, California under the Rules of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce by one or more arbitrators appointed in accordance with the said Rules.


 


9.14     Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, CLAIM, SUIT, LITIGATION OR OTHER PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT.


 


9.15     Attorneys’ Fees. If any Party hereto brings any action, at law or in equity, to enforce or interpret the terms of this Agreement, the prevailing Party shall be entitled to recover from the other party hereto reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs in addition to any relief to which such Party may be entitled.


 


9.16     Specific Performance. The Parties agree that it would be difficult to measure damages which might result from a breach of this Agreement by the Stockholders or the Company and that money damages would be an inadequate remedy for such a breach. Accordingly, if there is a breach or proposed breach of any provision of this Agreement by the Stockholders or the Company, Purchaser shall be entitled, in addition to any other remedies which it may have, to an injunction or other appropriate equitable relief to restrain such breach without having to show or prove actual damage to Purchaser.


 


9.17     Construction. The language used in this Agreement shall be deemed to be the language chosen by the Parties to express their mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction shall be applied against any Party. Any reference in this Agreement to “including” shall be interpreted as “including without limitation”. Whenever the context so requires, the singular shall include the plural and the plural shall include the singular, and the gender of any pronoun shall include the other genders. Any dollar thresholds set forth herein shall not be used as a determinative benchmark for establishing what is or is not “material” or a “Material Adverse Effect” under this Agreement. Any reference in this Agreement to a statute shall be to such statute, as amended from time to time, and to the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. When reference is made in this Agreement to information that has been “made available” to the Purchaser, that shall mean that such information was delivered to Purchaser or its counsel before December 1, 2017. The titles, captions and table of contents contained in this Agreement are inserted in this Agreement only as a matter of convenience and for reference and in no way define, limit, extend or describe the scope of this Agreement or the intent of any provision of this Agreement. Unless otherwise specified to the contrary, all references to Articles and Sections are references to Articles and Sections of this Agreement and all references to Exhibits and Schedules are references to Exhibits and Schedules to this Agreement.

[STOCKHOLDER]


 



 




 




 


 


Exhibit D



Form of Restrictive Covenant Agreement


 


 



 




 




 


RESTRICTIVE COVENANT AGREEMENT


 


THIS RESTRICTIVE COVENANT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of January 18, 2018, by and among LRAD Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Buyer”), and [__________], a [__________] organized under the laws of [__________] (“Restricted Party”). Restricted Party and Buyer are referred to herein sometimes individually as a “Party” and collectively herein as the “Parties.”


 


WHEREAS, pursuant to that certain Stock Purchase Agreement dated as of the date hereof (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”) by and among Buyer, Genasys Holding S.L., a limited liability company organized under the laws of Spain (the “Company”), each of the holders of the capital stock of the Company (the “Stockholders”), and Pablo Colom Imaz, an individual resident in Spain, as representative of the Stockholders, Buyer shall purchase all of the capital stock of the Company (the “Stock Purchase”). The Stock Purchase and the transactions contemplated by the Stock Purchase Agreement are hereinafter referred to as the “Transactions.” Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the respective meanings ascribed to such terms in the Stock Purchase Agreement.


 


WHEREAS, Restricted Party understands and agrees that the Transactions will result in an immediate, substantial and direct benefit to Restricted Party, including the receipt of a portion of the Purchase Price.


 


WHEREAS, the Parties acknowledge that the restrictions contained in this Agreement are fair and reasonable with respect to duration, geographical area and scope to protect Buyer’s legitimate business interests, and are a material inducement for Buyer to enter into the Transactions.


 


WHEREAS, Restricted Party possesses extensive knowledge and proprietary information with respect to the operation of the Company’s mass notification software business (the “Business”), which Business is being acquired by Buyer pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Stock Purchase Agreement.


 


WHEREAS, if proprietary information regarding the Business were disclosed or made available to competitors of Buyer or used by Restricted Party for its own account, Buyer could suffer adverse effects.


 


WHEREAS, Buyer and its Affiliates (including, following the Closing Date, the Company) could be irreparably damaged if Restricted Party were to provide services that are competitive to the Business or to any Person competing with Buyer and such competition by Restricted Party could result in a significant loss of goodwill by Buyer.


 


NOW, THEREFORE, the Parties hereto agree as follows:


 


1.     Non-Compete, Non-Solicitation. In exchange for the benefits that Restricted Party will obtain as a direct result of the consummation of the Transactions, Restricted Party hereby agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement. 


 



 




 




 


(a)     In order to protect the value of the Business, for a period of three (3) years after the Closing Date, Restricted Party shall not, directly or indirectly, in any country or jurisdiction in which Buyer or its subsidiaries (including the Company, “Subsidiaries”) are engaged in the Business as of the Closing Date, compete against the Business, and shall not own any interest in, operate, manage, control, engage in, Participate in, invest in, permit its name to be used by, act as consultant or advisor to, render services for (alone or in association with any Person) or otherwise assist in any manner any Person that engages in or owns, invests in, operates, manages or controls any venture or enterprise which, directly or indirectly, competes against the Business (a “Competitive Business”). “Participate” includes any direct or indirect interest in any enterprise, whether as an officer, director, manager, employee, partner, sole proprietor, agent, representative, independent contractor, executive, franchisor, franchisee, creditor, owner or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prohibit Restricted Party from (i) being a passive owner of not more than fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding stock of any class of securities of a company engaged in a Competitive Business, so long as the Restricted Party has no active participation in the Competitive Business of such company, or (ii) performing any services for Buyer, the Company or any of their respective Affiliates.


 


(b)     For a period of twelve (12) months after the Closing Date, Restricted Party shall not, directly or indirectly through another Person, (i) solicit for employment or induce or attempt to induce or encourage any employee or independent consultant (including employees and independent consultants of the Company that are or have been employed by, or perform or have performed services for, Buyer or its Subsidiaries following the Closing) of Buyer or its Subsidiaries to leave the employ of or consulting relationship with Buyer or its Subsidiaries, or in any way interfere with the relationship between Buyer or its Subsidiaries and any employee or independent consultant thereof (such employees and independent consultants, the “Restricted Persons”), or (ii) hire, employ, enter into a consulting relationship with or otherwise retain for services any Restricted Person during the time such Restricted Person is an employee or independent consultant for Buyer or its Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit Restricted Party or any other Person from making a general, public solicitation for employment, or using an employee recruiting or search firm to conduct a search, that does not specifically target employees or consultants of Buyer or its Subsidiaries, provided that this sentence will not serve to limit in any way the other restrictions contained herein, including but not limited to the restrictions set forth in Section 1(b)(ii).


 


(c)     For a period of three (3) years after the Closing Date, Restricted Party, directly or indirectly, shall not interfere in any adverse way with the relationship between any customer, supplier, vendor, referral source, partner, licensee or business relation of Buyer or its Subsidiaries (including, without limitation, inducing such Person to cease doing business, or materially reduce such business with, Buyer or its Subsidiaries). 


 



2




 




 


(d)     Restricted Party agrees and acknowledges that Restricted Party is familiar with the trade secrets and other information of a confidential or proprietary nature of the Business and the Company’s business relations. Restricted Party also agrees and acknowledges that Buyer, its Affiliates and Subsidiaries could be irreparably damaged if Restricted Party were to participate in any Competitive Business in violation of this Agreement and that any such competition could result in a significant loss of goodwill by Buyer and its Subsidiaries. Restricted Party further agrees and acknowledges that in order to assure Buyer and its Subsidiaries’ businesses will retain their value, it is necessary that Restricted Party undertake not to utilize proprietary information of the Company and Restricted Party’s relationship with customers, suppliers, vendors, referral sources, partners, licensees or other business relations of the Company to compete with Buyer and its Subsidiaries in violation of this Agreement. Restricted Party agrees and acknowledges that the covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement are a material inducement to Buyer to enter into the Stock Purchase Agreement and to perform its obligations thereunder, and that Buyer would not obtain the benefit of the bargain set forth in the Stock Purchase Agreement as specifically negotiated by the parties thereto if Restricted Party breached any of the provisions of this Agreement.


 


2.     Representations and Warranties. Restricted Party hereby represents and warrants to Buyer the following:

(b)     Restricted Party has the requisite power and authority and has full legal capacity necessary to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby;


 


(c)     This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered to Buyer by Restricted Party, and constitutes a valid and binding obligation of Restricted Party, enforceable against Restricted Party in accordance with its terms; and


 


(d)     The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by Restricted Party does not and will not conflict with, violate or cause a breach of any agreement or instrument to which Restricted Party is a party or subject or any judgment, order or decree to which Restricted Party is subject.

All notices, communications and deliveries hereunder shall be made in writing signed by the Party making the same and shall be deemed given or made (i) on the date delivered if delivered in person, (ii) on the date delivered if delivered by registered or certified mail (return receipt requested) (with postage and other fees prepaid), (iii) on the next Business Day after deposit with a nationally recognized overnight courier service, or (iv) upon confirmed receipt of delivered by email or fax, as follows (or to such other representative or at such other address of a Party as such Party may furnish to the other Parties in writing):

4.     Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision or any other jurisdiction, and this Agreement shall be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein. The Parties agree that a court of competent jurisdiction making a determination of the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of Section 1 of this Agreement shall have the power to reduce the scope, duration or area of any such term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases or to replace any invalid or unenforceable term or provision in Section 1 with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this Agreement shall be enforceable as so modified. If such partial enforcement is not possible in such jurisdiction, the term or provision shall be deemed severed as to such jurisdiction, and the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.


 


5.     Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, any one of which may be by facsimile or digital imaging device (i.e., pdf format), all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument.


 


6.     Assignment. This Agreement and all of the provisions hereof shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of each of the Parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Neither this Agreement nor any rights, benefits or obligations set forth herein may be assigned by any of the Parties hereto, except that Buyer and its permitted assigns may assign this Agreement and any of the provisions hereof without the consent of Restricted Party.


 


7.     Choice of Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law rules or provisions (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware. Any suit, action or proceeding seeking to enforce any provision of, or based on any matter arising out of or in connection with, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be finally settled in San Diego, California under the Rules of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce by one or more arbitrators appointed in accordance with the said Rules. THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT AGREE THAT JURISDICTION AND VENUE IN ANY ACTION BROUGHT BY ANY PARTY PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY LIE IN SUCH COURTS. BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT, EACH PARTY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS FOR ITSELF AND IN RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY WITH RESPECT TO SUCH ACTION. THE PARTIES IRREVOCABLY AGREE THAT VENUE WOULD BE PROPER IN SUCH COURT, AND HEREBY WAIVE ANY OBJECTION THAT SUCH COURT IS AN IMPROPER OR INCONVENIENT FORUM FOR THE RESOLUTION OF SUCH ACTION. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT TO ANY PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

8.     Amendment and Waiver. This Agreement may not be amended, altered or modified except by a written instrument executed by Buyer and Restricted Party. No course of dealing between or among any persons having any interest in this Agreement, or action taken by any such person (including in any investigation by or on behalf of any party), will be deemed effective to modify, amend or discharge any part of this Agreement or any rights or obligations of any Person under or by reason of this Agreement. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed or shall constitute, a waiver of any other provisions, whether or not similar, nor shall any waiver constitute a continuing waiver.


 


9.     Attorneys’ Fees. If any party hereto brings any action, at law or in equity, to enforce or interpret the terms of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from the other party hereto reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs in addition to any relief to which such party may be entitled.


 


10.     Enforcement of Covenants. Restricted Party recognizes and affirms that in the event of a breach or threatened breach by Restricted Party of any of the provisions of this Agreement, money damages could be inadequate and Buyer and/or its Subsidiaries could have no adequate remedy at law. Accordingly, Restricted Party agrees that Buyer shall have the right, in addition to an action or actions for damages or any other rights and remedies existing in its favor, to seek specific performance, injunctive and/or other equitable relief (without posting a bond or other security) to enforce its rights and each of Restricted Party’s obligations under this Agreement or to prevent any violations (whether anticipatory, continuing or future) of the provisions of this Agreement (such remedies to include, without limitation, the extension of the restricted period by a period equal to the length of the violation of Section 1 of this Agreement). Nothing contained herein shall be construed as prohibiting Buyer and/or its Subsidiaries from pursuing any other remedies available to it for such breach or threatened breach, including the recovery of any damages which it is able to prove, provided, however, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the liability of the Restricted Party to provide any indemnification of damages (or otherwise) will be limited for the Restricted Party in the aggregate to the portion of the Purchase Price actually received by such Restricted Party. In the event of a breach or violation by Restricted Party of any of the provisions of Section 1 of this Agreement, the restricted period shall automatically extend by the length of any such actual breach or violation. 


 


11.     Non-Exclusivity. The rights and remedies of Buyer and/or its Subsidiaries hereunder are not exclusive of or limited by any other rights or remedies that Buyer and/or its Subsidiaries may have, whether at law, in equity, by contract or otherwise, all of which shall be cumulative (and not alternative).

12.     Recitals. The recitals to this Agreement are an integral part of this Agreement and shall be deemed to be part of the text of this Agreement as if fully set forth herein.


 


13.     Entire Agreement. Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, this Agreement embodies the complete agreement and understanding among the Parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes and preempts any prior understandings, agreements or representations by or among the Parties, written or oral, which may have related to the subject matter hereof in any way.

15.     No Strict Construction. The Parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement.
