Further each of the Shareholders acknowledges and agrees that the foregoing covenant is an integral part of this Agreement, is fair and reasonable in light of all of the facts and circumstances of the relationship between the Shareholders, the Company and Buyer. In the event any court of competent jurisdiction determines that, notwithstanding the foregoing acknowledgments, the scope of the restricted activities of the foregoing covenant is excessive or not enforceable, or that the foregoing covenant is not enforceable unless it is subject to a geographic limitation, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to reflect the maximum restrictions on activities and geographic scope allowable pursuant to such court's determination.







(b)        Further Assurances.  Each of the Shareholders and Buyer covenant and agree to deliver and acknowledge (or cause to be executed, delivered and acknowledged), from time to time, at the request of any other party and without further consideration, all such further instruments and take all such further actions as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate to carry out the provisions and intent of this Agreement.

ARTICLE 8


SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES; INDEMNIFICATION


 


Section 8.1. Survival.  The representations and warranties, set forth in this Agreement, in any Exhibit or Schedule hereto and in any certificate or instrument delivered in connection herewith shall survive for a period of twelve (12) months after the Effective Time (the "Warranty Period") and shall thereupon terminate and expire and shall be of no force or effect thereafter, except (i) with respect to any claim, written notice of which shall have been delivered to Buyer or the Shareholder, as the case may be, in accordance herewith and prior to the end of the Warranty Period, such claim shall survive the termination of such Warranty Period for as long as such claim is unsettled, and (ii) with respect to any litigation which shall have been commenced to resolve such claim on or prior to such date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, solely with respect to the representations and warranties regarding Taxes, ERISA matters, and environmental matters, the applicable Warranty Period shall be the applicable statute of limitations.







Section 8.2.  Indemnification by Shareholder.  Subject to the provisions of Section 8.5 below, Shareholder hereby covenants and agrees with Buyer that Shareholder shall indemnify the Buyer, and its directors, officers, employees and affiliates, and each of their successors and assigns (individually, a "Buyer Indemnified Party"), and hold them harmless from, against and in respect of any and all costs, losses, claims, liabilities (including for Taxes), fines, penalties, damages and expenses (including interest, if any, imposed in connection therewith, court costs and reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) (collectively, "Damages") incurred by any of them resulting from (i) the operation of the Business on or prior to the date hereof and (ii) any breach of any representation or warranty in this Agreement or the non-fulfillment in any material respect of any agreement, covenant or obligation by the Company or Shareholder made in this Agreement (including without limitation any Exhibit or Schedule hereto and any certificate or instrument delivered in connection herewith).







Section 8.3. Indemnification by Buyer.  Buyer hereby covenants and agrees with Shareholder that Buyer shall indemnify the Company and Shareholder, the Company’s directors, officers, employees and affiliates, and each of their successors and assigns (individually, a "Shareholder Indemnified Party") and hold them harmless from, against and in respect of any and all Damages incurred by any Shareholder Indemnified Party resulting from (i) the operation of the Business after the date hereof and (ii) any misrepresentation, breach of any representation or warranty in this Agreement or the non-fulfillment in any material respect of any agreement, covenant or obligation by Buyer made in this Agreement (including without limitation any Exhibit or Schedule hereto and any certificate or instrument delivered in connection herewith).

Section 8.4. Right to Defend.  If the facts giving rise to any claim for indemnification shall involve any actual claim or demand by any third party against a Buyer Indemnified Party or Shareholder Indemnified Party (referred to herein as an "Indemnified Party"), then the Indemnified Party will give prompt written notice of any such claim to the indemnifying party, which notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the nature, basis and amount of such claim (the "Notice of Third Party Claim"); provided that the failure to provide such Notice of Third Party Claim shall only relieve the indemnifying party of its or his obligation to indemnify for such claim only to the extent that such indemnifying party has been prejudiced by such Indemnified Party's failure to give the Notice of Third Party Claim as required. The indemnifying party receiving such Notice of Third Party Claim may (without prejudice to the right of any Indemnified Party to participate at its own expense through counsel of its own choosing) undertake the defense of such claims or actions at its expense with counsel chosen and paid by its giving written notice (the "Election to Defend") to the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) days after the date the Notice of Third Party Claim is deemed received; provided, however, that the indemnifying party receiving the Notice of Third Party Claim may not settle such claims or actions without the consent of the Indemnified Party, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, except if the sole relief provided is monetary damages to be borne solely by the indemnifying party; and, provided further, if the defendants in any action include both the indemnifying party and the Indemnified Party, and the Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded that counsel selected by the indemnifying party has a conflict of interest because of the availability of different or additional defenses to the parties, the Indemnified Party shall cooperate in the defense of such claim and shall make available to the indemnifying party pertinent information under its control relating thereto, but the Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain its own counsel and to control its defense and shall be entitled to be reimbursed for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred in such separate defense. In no event will the provisions of this Article reduce or lessen the obligations of the parties under this Article, if prior to the expiration of the foregoing thirty (30) day notice period, the Indemnified Party furnishing the Notice of Third Party Claim responds to a third party claim if such action is reasonably required to minimize damages or avoid a forfeiture or penalty or because of any requirements imposed by law. If the indemnifying party receiving the Notice of Third Party Claim does not duly give the Election to Defend as provided above, then it will be deemed to have irrevocably waived its right to defend or settle such claims, but it will have the right, at its expense, to attend, but not otherwise to participate in, proceedings with such third parties; and if the indemnifying party does duly give the Election to Defend, then the Indemnified Party giving the Notice of Third Party Claim will have the right at its expense, to attend, but not otherwise to participate in, such proceedings. The parties to this Agreement will not be entitled to dispute the amount of any Damages (including reasonable attorney's fees and expenses) related to such third party claim resolved as provided above.







Section 8.5 Limitation on Rights of Indemnification.   (a) No Buyer Indemnified Party shall have the right to indemnification under this Agreement unless and until the aggregate amount of any and all such indemnification claims made by Buyer Indemnified Party under this Agreement exceeds $100,000 (the "Basket").  If Buyer Indemnified Party claims exceed the Basket, Buyer Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to receive one and one-half ($1.50) dollars in respect of each one dollar of indemnified claims in excess of the Basket until Buyer Indemnified Parties shall have received an amount equal to the sum of the reimbursed indemnified claims plus the Basket in respect of indemnified claims.  If Buyer Indemnified Parties are entitled to any further payments in respect of indemnifications claims, they shall be made on a dollar for dollar basis subject to any limitations contained herein. The Basket shall not apply to claims regarding Ownership of Shares (4.3), Insider Interests (4.31), Taxes (4.25), and ERISA (4.20).


 




  





26











  






 


            (b) The aggregate liability of Shareholders pursuant to this Article 8 shall not exceed the Purchase Price; provided, however, that the provisions of this Section 8.5(b) shall not apply to: (i) breaches of Shareholder's representations and warranties relating to tax matters.







Section 8.6. Subrogation.   If the Indemnified Party receives payment or other indemnification from the indemnifying party hereunder, the indemnifying party shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment or indemnification to all rights in respect of the subject matter of such claim to which the Indemnified Party may be entitled, to institute appropriate action against third parties for the recovery thereof, including under any insurance policies, and the Indemnified Party agrees to assist and cooperate in good faith with the indemnifying party and to take any action reasonably required by such indemnifying party, at the expense of such indemnifying party, in enforcing such rights.







      If a Shareholders shall have paid a Buyer Indemnified Party for an indemnified claim or otherwise, and Buyer Indemnified Party subsequently receives payment under insurance policies  covering such claim, Buyer Indemnified Party shall repay to the Shareholder the amount of such prior payment made by the Shareholder; provided, however, such repayment shall not exceed the actual amount received by Buyer Indemnified Party under such policy, less all reasonable fees (including attorneys' fees) incurred by Buyer Indemnified Party in pursuing and collecting under such policy.







ARTICLE 10


MISCELLANEOUS
