(ii)    The post-closing adjustment shall be an amount determined as follows:
(A)    an amount equal to the Closing Working Capital minus the Target Working Capital (the “Working Capital Difference”), which amount may be positive or negative.  To the extent that the Working Capital Difference is a positive number and its absolute value exceeds $900,000, then the Working Capital Adjustment Amount shall be such positive amount.  To the extent that the Working Capital Difference is a negative number and its absolute value exceeds $900,000, then the Working Capital Adjustment Amount shall be such negative amount.  In the event that the absolute value of the Working Capital Difference exceeds $900,000, then the Working Capital Difference (which amount may be positive or negative) shall be referred to as the “Working Capital Adjustment Amount”.  For the avoidance of doubt, in the event that the absolute value of the Working Capital Difference is less than or equal to $900,000, then the Working Capital Adjustment Amount shall be equal to Zero Dollars ($0).  
(B)    an amount equal to the Closing Indebtedness minus the Estimated Closing Indebtedness (the “Indebtedness Difference”), which amount may be positive or negative.











(C)    an amount (the “Business Transaction Expenses Adjustment Amount”) equal to the aggregate Business Transaction Expenses paid by Buyer or any of its Affiliates following the Closing.
(D)    the amount equal to the Working Capital Adjustment Amount  minus the Indebtedness Difference,  minus the Business Transaction Expenses Adjustment Amount shall be referred to as the “Post-Closing Adjustment.”  If the Post-Closing Adjustment is a positive number, then Buyer shall pay to Seller an amount equal to the Post-Closing Adjustment.

(iii)    Examination. After receipt of the Closing Working Capital Statement, Seller shall have 30 days (the “Review Period”) to review the Closing Working Capital Statement.

(iv)    Objection. On or prior to the last day of the Review Period, Seller may object to the Closing Working Capital Statement by delivering to Buyer a written statement setting forth Seller’s objections in reasonable detail, indicating each disputed item or amount and the basis for Seller’s disagreement therewith (the “Statement of Objections”). If Seller fails to deliver the Statement of Objections before the expiration of the Review Period, the Closing Working Capital Statement and the Post-Closing Adjustment, as the case may be, reflected in the Closing Working Capital Statement shall be deemed to have been accepted by Seller. If Seller delivers the Statement of Objections before the expiration of the Review Period, Buyer and Seller shall negotiate in good faith to resolve such objections within 30 days after the delivery of the Statement of Objections (the “Resolution Period”), and, if the same are so resolved within the Resolution Period, the Post-Closing Adjustment and the Closing Working Capital Statement with such changes as may have been previously agreed in writing by Buyer and Seller, shall be final and binding.
(v)    Resolution of Disputes. If Seller and Buyer fail to reach an agreement with respect to all of the matters set forth in the Statement of Objections before expiration of the Resolution Period, then any amounts remaining in dispute (“Disputed Amounts” and any amounts not so disputed, the “Undisputed Amounts”) shall be submitted for resolution to the office of BDO USA, LLP or, if BDO USA, LLP is unable to serve, Buyer and Seller shall appoint by mutual agreement the office of an impartial nationally recognized firm of independent certified public accountants other than Seller’s Accountants or Buyer’s 











Accountants (the “Independent Accountants”) who, acting as experts and not arbitrators, shall resolve, based solely on written submissions by Buyer and Seller and their respective representatives, and not by independent review, the Disputed Amounts only and make any adjustments to the Post-Closing Adjustment, as the case may be, and the Closing Working Capital Statement. No Party shall have any ex parte communications with the Independent Accountants without the prior consent of Buyer, in the case of communications by the Seller Companies, or Seller, in the case of communications by Buyer. In resolving any disputed item, the independent accounting firm shall be bound by the applicable definitions set forth in this Agreement and the other requirements of this Section. The Parties agree that all adjustments shall be made without regard to materiality. The Independent Accountants shall only decide the specific items under dispute by the Parties and their decision for each Disputed Amount must be within the range of values assigned to each such item in the Closing Working Capital Statement and the Statement of Objections, respectively.
(vi)    Fees of the Independent Accountants. The fees and expenses of the Independent Accountants shall be paid by Seller, on the one hand, and by Buyer, on the other hand, based upon the percentage that the amount actually contested but not awarded to Seller or Buyer, respectively, bears to the aggregate amount actually contested by Seller and Buyer.
(vii)    Determination by Independent Accountants. The Independent Accountants shall make a determination as soon as practicable within 30 days (or such other time as the Parties shall agree in writing) after their engagement, and their resolution of the Disputed Amounts and their adjustments to the Closing Working Capital Statement and/or the Post-Closing Adjustment shall be conclusive and binding upon the Parties.
(viii)    Payments of Post-Closing Adjustment. Except as otherwise provided herein, any payment of the Post-Closing Adjustment shall (A) be due (x) within fifteen Business Days of acceptance of the applicable Closing Working Capital Statement or (y) if there are Disputed Amounts, then within fifteen Business Days of the resolution described in clauses (iv) or (vii); and (B) be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such U.S. account as is directed by Buyer or Seller, as the case may be. 
(ix)    Adjustments for Tax Purposes. Any payments made pursuant to this Section 2(i) shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price by the parties for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Law.
(j)    Allocation of Purchase Price. Seller and Buyer agree that the Purchase Price shall be allocated among the Transferred Assets for all purposes (including Tax and financial accounting) as shown on the allocation schedule (the “Allocation Schedule”), which shall be prepared in accordance with the principles set forth on Schedule 2(j).  The Allocation Schedule shall be prepared by Buyer and delivered to Seller within ninety days following the Closing Date. If Seller notifies Buyer in writing that Seller objects to one or more items reflected in the Allocation Schedule, Seller and Buyer shall negotiate in good faith to resolve such dispute; provided, however, that if Seller and Buyer are unable to resolve any dispute with respect to the Allocation Schedule within thirty days following delivery to Seller of the Allocation Schedule, such dispute shall be resolved by the 











Independent Accountants. The fees and expenses of such accounting firm shall be borne equally by Seller and Buyer. Buyer and Seller shall file all Tax Returns (including amended returns and claims for refund) and information reports in a manner consistent with the Allocation Schedule.  When in accordance with local Law and/or tax requirements the price allocation of the Transferred Assets at each involved jurisdiction require an itemized price allocation of those specific local Transferred Assets, Buyer and Seller shall agree on a further detailed item by item breakdown purchase allocation under the applicable Asset Transfer Instrument(s).

(ix)    by Seller if the Mexico Deferred Closing has not occurred on or before December 31, 2019; provided, however, that such termination shall only apply with respect to (a) Transaction Agreements that are exclusively related to the Mexico Deferred Business and (b) the provisions of Transaction Agreements that apply to the Mexico Deferred Business. 
(b)         Effect of Termination. Buyer’s or Seller’s right of termination under this Section 8 is in addition to any other right it may have under the Transaction Agreements, at Law or in equity, and the exercise of such right of termination will not constitute an election of remedies.
Section 9.    Indemnification.   
(a)    Survival.  Subject to the limitations and other provisions of this Agreement, the representations and warranties contained herein shall survive the Closing and shall remain in full 











force and effect until April 30, 2021 except that (i) the Fundamental Representations shall survive until the date that is 48 months from the Closing Date; and (ii) the representations and warranties contained in Section 3(i) and Section 3(o) shall survive until the date that is 60 days after the applicable statute of limitations.  None of the covenants or other agreements contained in this Agreement shall survive the Closing Date or, in respect of the Mexico Deferred Business and the India Deferred Business, the Mexico Deferred Closing Date and the India Deferred Closing Date, respectively, other than those which by their terms contemplate performance after the Closing Date or, in respect of the Mexico Deferred Business and the India Deferred Business, after the Mexico Deferred Closing Date and the India Deferred Closing Date, respectively, and each such surviving covenant and agreement shall survive the Closing and, in respect of the Mexico Deferred Business and the India Deferred Business, shall survive the Mexico Deferred Closing and the India Deferred Closing, respectively, for the period contemplated by its terms. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any claims asserted in good faith  and in writing by notice from the Indemnified Person to the Indemnifying Party on or prior to the expiration date of the applicable survival period shall not thereafter be barred by the expiration of such survival period and such claims shall survive until finally resolved.
(b)    Indemnification by Seller.  Subject to the limitations set forth herein, Seller shall indemnify and hold Buyer, its Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees and agents, successors and assigns (“Buyer Indemnified Persons”), harmless from and against:

(ii)    any Losses incurred related to the Excluded Assets and the Retained Liabilities;
(iii)    any Losses incurred due to any  Breach of the representations and warranties of Seller contained in Section 3 of this Agreement without regard to the terms “material,” “materiality,” “Material Adverse Effect,” and other similar or correlative qualifications, both with respect to the determination of a Breach and the determination of any Loss; 
(iv)    any Losses incurred due to Breach of any covenant or undertaking by Seller pursuant to this Agreement, the Transfer Instrument or any of the Asset Transfer Instruments;
(v)    any Losses incurred related to Indebtedness of the Business or Uniloy Italy or related to Business Transaction Expenses; 
(vi)    any Losses incurred related to the German Tax Sharing Agreement or the Uniloy Italy Spin-Off; 
(vii)    any Losses incurred as a result of any act or omission of the Seller or any of its Affiliates in relation to any European Employee or any other person employed or engaged by the Business or any trade union, staff association, works council or any other appropriate 











representative(s) of the European Employees or any other persons employed or engaged by the Business prior to the Closing Date; 
(viii)    any Losses incurred as a result of any failure by the Seller or any Seller Company to comply with its obligations, including obligations to inform and consult under the Acquired Rights Directive (save where the reason for such failure was a failure by the Buyer to comply with its obligations under the Acquired Rights Directive); or
(ix)    any Losses occurring in connection with any transfer of an employee by operation of law as described in Section 6(c)(iii) unless such employee was a European Employee intended by the Parties to transfer as part of the Divestiture.
(c)    Limitations of Seller’s Indemnity. 
(i)    Seller shall not be liable to any Buyer Indemnified Persons for indemnification under Section 9(b)(iii) until the aggregate amount of all Losses in respect of indemnification under Section 9(b)(iii) (except to the extent of a Breach of a Fundamental Representation) exceeds Three Hundred Ninety Thousand Dollars ($390,000), at which point, Seller will be obligated to indemnify Buyer Indemnified Persons from and against all such Losses suffered in excess of such threshold amount.  
(ii)    In no event shall the amount payable under Seller’s obligation to indemnify the Buyer Indemnified Persons under Section 9(b)(iii) exceed an amount equal to the difference between the initial retention amount under the R&W Insurance Policy, minus Three Hundred Ninety Thousand Dollars ($390,000), and in no event shall the amount payable under Seller’s obligations to indemnify the Buyer Indemnified Persons under Section 9(b)(i), Section 9(b)(ii), Section 9(b)(iv), Section 9(b)(v), Section 9(b)(vi), Section 9(b)(vii), Section 9(b)(viii) or Section 9(b)(ix) exceed the Purchase Price.
(iii)    Seller shall only be liable for Losses in respect of indemnification under Section 9(b)(vi) to the extent a Buyer Indemnified Person experiences additional out-of-pocket income tax liability after full utilization of any available net operating losses.  In addition, the provisions of Section 9(j) (Net Recovery) shall not apply to any Losses in respect of indemnification under Section 9(b)(vi).
(d)    Indemnification by Buyer.  Following the Closing and, in respect of the Mexico Deferred Business and the India Deferred Business, following the Mexico Deferred Closing and the India Deferred Closing, respectively, Buyer shall indemnify and hold Seller, its Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees and agents, successors and assigns (“Seller Indemnified Persons”) harmless from and against:
(i)    any Losses related to the Transferred Assets or the Business, if and to the extent that any such Losses arise out of Events occurring on or after the Closing Date or, in respect of the Mexico Deferred Business and the India Deferred Business, on or prior to the Mexico Deferred Closing Date and the India Deferred Closing Date, respectively, and with respect to which Seller is not obligated to indemnify Buyer under Section 9(b);











(ii)    any Losses incurred due to a  Breach of the representations and warranties made by Buyer under this Agreement, without regard to the terms “material,” “materiality,” “Material Adverse Effect,” and other similar or correlative qualifications, both with respect to the determination of a Breach and the determination of any Loss; 
(iii)    any Losses incurred due to  Breach of any covenant or undertaking by Buyer pursuant to this Agreement or any of the Transaction Agreements;
(iv)    any Losses incurred due to any act or omission of the Buyer or its Affiliates (or any other event or occurrence) on or after or proposed to occur on or after the Closing Date or, in respect of the Mexico Deferred Business and the India Deferred Business, on or after the Mexico Deferred Closing Date and the India Deferred Closing Date, respectively (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any change or proposed change to terms and conditions of employment or the dismissal of any Employee); or
(v)    any Losses incurred due to any failure by the Buyer to comply with its obligations under the Acquired Rights Directive; or
(e)    Limitation of Buyer’s Indemnity. 
(i)    Buyer shall not be liable to any Seller Indemnified Persons for indemnification until the aggregate amount of all Losses in respect of indemnification under Section 9(d)(ii) (except to the extent of a Breach of a Fundamental Representation) exceeds Three Hundred Ninety Thousand Dollars ($390,000), at which point, Buyer will be obligated to indemnify Seller Indemnified Persons from and against all such Losses suffered in excess of such threshold amount.
(ii)    In no event shall the amount payable under Buyer’s obligations to indemnify the Seller Indemnified Persons (except to the extent of a Breach of a Fundamental Representation) exceed an amount equal to the difference between the initial retention amount under the R&W Insurance Policy, minus Three Hundred Ninety Thousand Dollars ($390,000), and in no event shall the amount payable under Buyer’s obligations to indemnify the Seller Indemnified Persons under Section 9(d)(i), Section 9(d)(iii), Section 9(d)(iv) or Section 9(d)(v) or for any Breach of a Fundamental Representation exceed the Purchase Price. 
(f)    Notices and Cure Time. In the event that a Buyer Indemnified Person or Seller Indemnified Person, as applicable (the “Indemnified Person”) has a direct claim against Seller or Buyer, as relevant (the “Indemnifying Party”) for a Loss under Section 9(b) or Section 9(d), the Indemnified Person shall reasonably promptly notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of such claim; provided, that the failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not limit the indemnification rights under this Agreement except to the extent that the Indemnified Person is materially prejudiced by such failure.  To the extent feasible and practicable, such written notice shall include (i) a reasonable description of the facts and circumstances giving rise to an alleged Loss, and (ii) to the extent reasonably ascertainable or estimable, the aggregate amount being claimed with respect to the Loss, if any; provided, that failure to include any such detail or any such amount shall not affect 











the validity of such claim or the time at which such claim is made. If a Breach giving rise to such Loss is capable of remedy, the Indemnified Person shall only be entitled to indemnification if it gives such written notice of the Breach and the Breach is not remedied within 30 days from the date on which such written notice is received by the Indemnifying Party (or, if remedy is not possible within 30 days, then if the Indemnifying Party cannot show good faith effort to commence such remedy during that 30 day period).   
(g)    WAIVER.  NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING IN THIS SECTION 9 TO THE CONTRARY, ON OR AFTER THE CLOSING, NO INDEMNIFYING PARTY OR ITS AFFILIATES SHALL BE LIABLE TO ANY INDEMNIFIED PERSON FOR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, WHETHER OR NOT SUCH LOSSES WERE REASONABLY FORESEEABLE, OTHER THAN WITH RESPECT TO ANY SUCH LOSSES INCLUDED IN A THIRD PARTY CLAIM.
(h)    Exclusive Remedy.  Each Party hereto acknowledges and agrees that on or after the Closing, the indemnification provisions in this Section 9 shall, absent fraud or intentional or willful misconduct, be the exclusive remedy of the Indemnified Person with respect to all claims arising under or related to any of the Transaction Agreements or the Contemplated Transactions other than the Transition Services Agreement, provided, however, that this Section 9(h) shall in no way limit any Party’s right to recover under the R&W Insurance Policy.  With respect to any claim for Losses under Section 9(b)(iii), absent fraud, the Indemnified Person shall seek recovery (1) first, from the R&W Insurance Policy, and (2) second, directly from the Seller, up to an amount equal to the difference between the initial retention amount under the R&W Insurance Policy, minus Three Hundred Ninety Thousand Dollars ($390,000).  
(i)    Mitigation.  Nothing in this Agreement shall affect Buyer’s obligation to mitigate any Losses under any applicable Law.  
(j)    Net Recovery.  The indemnified amount under this Section 9 shall be calculated net of: (A) any Tax benefit; and (B) the amount of any insurance proceeds (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any proceeds received pursuant to the R&W Insurance Policy), indemnification payments, contribution payments or reimbursements actually received by the Buyer Indemnified Person for the Losses, net of any applicable premium increases that are the direct result of such Losses.  The Indemnified Person shall be deemed to recognize a Tax benefit in any taxable year if, and to the extent that, the Indemnified Person’s cumulative liability for Taxes through the end of such taxable year, calculated by excluding any Tax items attributable to the Losses from such taxable year, exceeds the Indemnified Person’s actual cumulative liability for Taxes through the end of such taxable year, calculated by taking into account any Tax items attributable to the Losses for such taxable year (to the extent permitted by relevant Tax law and not already taken into account for a previous taxable year pursuant to this Section 9(i) and treating such Tax items as the last items claimed for any taxable year).  The Indemnified Person shall seek recovery under applicable insurance policies covering any Loss.  For the avoidance of doubt, absent fraud, Buyer Indemnified Persons shall not be able to recover any Loss from Seller to the extent the Buyer Indemnified Persons have recovered such Loss under the R&W Insurance Policy.
(k)    Third Party Claim.   











(i)    Indemnification regarding Third Party Claim. If an Indemnified Person receives notice of the assertion by any Third Party of any Loss or claim or commencement of any Loss (a “Third Party Claim”) with respect to which an Indemnifying Party is or may be obligated to provide indemnification hereunder, the Indemnified Person shall reasonably promptly notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of the Third Party Claim, provided , that no failure or delay on the part of the Indemnified Person in notifying the Indemnifying Party shall relieve from, or otherwise affect, the obligation of the Indemnifying Party to provide indemnification under this Section 9, except to the extent that any Liabilities directly resulted from or were caused by such failure, or the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced thereby, which notice shall set forth: (i) a detailed description of the facts and circumstances giving rise to the Third Party Claim, and (ii) the aggregate amount of the Losses being claimed with respect to the Third Party Claim, if any (the “Third Party Claim Notice”) and.
(ii)    Terms of Defense of Third Party Claim.  The Indemnifying Party shall have 30 days after receipt of the Third Party Claim Notice (unless the claim or action requires a response before the expiration of such 30-day period, in which case the Indemnifying Party shall have until ten (10) Business Days before the required response date) to undertake, conduct and control, through counsel of its own choosing, the settlement or defense of the Third Party Claim, provided, however, that (x) prior to the Indemnifying Party assuming control of any defense in a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall (1) first demonstrate to the Indemnified Person in writing the Indemnifying Party’s financial ability to provide full indemnification to the Indemnified Person with respect to such Thirty Party Claim and (2) unconditionally agree in writing to be fully responsible for all Losses relating to such Third Party Claim, in each case without regard for the monetary limitation set forth herein, and (y) the Indemnifying Party will not admit liability, consent to the entry of any judgment, compromise, discharge, enter into any settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim or cease to defend a Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Person (not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned). The Indemnified Person shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in connection with the Indemnifying Party assuming control of any defense in a Third Party Claim; provided, however, that (i) the Indemnifying Party shall permit the Indemnified Person to participate in such settlement or defense through counsel chosen by the Indemnified Person, provided that the fees and expenses of such counsel shall not be borne by the Indemnifying Party, (ii) the Indemnifying Party shall not settle any Third Party Claim without the Indemnified Person’s consent if the settlement requires the Indemnified Person to admit wrongdoing, pay any fines or refrain from any material action and (iii) if, on the advice of outside counsel to the Indemnified Person, the Indemnified Person has separate defenses from the Indemnifying Party and there is a conflict of interest between the Indemnified Person and Indemnifying Parties or if there is any danger of criminal Liability of the Indemnified Person, then the Indemnified Person shall be permitted to retain special counsel of its own choosing at the sole expense of the Indemnified Person.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnifying Party is not entitled to participate in the defense (A) if the claim for indemnification relates to or arises in connection with any criminal proceeding, action, indictment, allegation or investigation, (B) if the Indemnified Person reasonably believes an adverse determination with respect to the Third Party Claim giving rise to such claim for 











indemnification would have an adverse effect on the Indemnified Person’s reputation or future business prospects, (C) if the claim seeks an injunction or equitable relief against the Indemnified Person, (D) if a conflict of interest exists between the Indemnified Person and the Indemnifying Party, (E) if the Indemnifying Party is failing to vigorously prosecute or defend such claim or (F) with respect to any claim for which a Buyer Indemnified Person seeks recovery under the R&W Insurance Policy which, for the avoidance of doubt, Buyer and/or the insurer under the R&W Insurance Policy shall have the right to control (whether directly or indirectly) the defense thereof.
(iii)    Failure to Undertake Defense. In the event that the Indemnifying Party fails to undertake the defense of a Third Party Claim in the manner and within the period provided in this Section 9(k), the Indemnified Person may conduct the defense of the Third Party Claim at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, and the Indemnifying Party shall be bound by any determination resulting from such Third Party Claim or any compromise or settlement made by the Indemnified Person.
(iv)    Settlement of Claims. Regardless of whether the Indemnifying Party is undertaking the defense of the Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Person shall not pay or settle such claim without the Indemnifying Party’s consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, unless any such payment or settlement of a Third Party Claim shall include a full, complete and irrevocable release for the benefit of the Indemnifying Party.
(v)    Reimbursement. Any claim under this Section 9(k) for any matter involving a Third Party Claim shall be indemnified, paid, or reimbursed promptly.  If the Indemnified Person shall assume the defense of a Third Party Claim in accordance with the provisions of this Section 9(k), the Indemnifying Party shall advance or reimburse, as applicable, the Indemnified Person for the costs of investigation and the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel retained by the Indemnified Person.
(vi)    Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event that any claim for indemnification by Buyer Indemnified Persons under this Section 9 requires that environmental investigation, remediation or other response action (“Response Action”) be conducted at any Transferred Asset or real property owned, operated or leased by the Business or Uniloy Italy after Closing, the Buyer Indemnified Persons shall be entitled to elect, in their sole discretion, to perform such Response Action or have the Indemnifying Party perform in either case at the Indemnifying Party’s sole cost and expense, provided the Party performing the Response Action shall give the non-performing Party Meaningful Participation Rights.
Section 10.    Miscellaneous.
(a)    No Third-Party Beneficiaries.  This Agreement shall not confer any rights or remedies upon any Person other than the Parties, their Affiliates, and their respective successors and permitted assigns and, with respect to Section 9 only, the Indemnified Persons.  Notwithstanding 











the foregoing, the Financing Sources shall be third-party beneficiaries of the Debt Financing Provisions.
(b)    Entire Agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer may (i) assign any or all of its rights and interests hereunder (A) to one or more of its Affiliates, (B) as security to any lender providing financing for the Contemplated Transactions (and any replacement thereof), and (C) in connection with a sale of all or any portion of the Business, and (ii) designate one or more of its Affiliates to perform its obligations hereunder (in any or all of which cases Buyer nonetheless shall remain responsible for the performance of all of its obligations hereunder).

No amendment of any provision of this Agreement shall be valid unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Buyer and Seller; provided that none of the Debt Financing Provisions may be amended, modified or waived without the prior written consent of the Financing Sources.  It is expressly agreed that the Financing Sources are third party beneficiaries of this Section 10(h).  No waiver by either Party of any provision of this Agreement or of any default, misrepresentation, or Breach of warranty or covenant hereunder, whether intentional or not, shall be valid unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Party making such waiver, nor shall such waiver be deemed to extend to any prior or subsequent default, misrepresentation, or Breach of warranty or covenant hereunder or affect in any way any rights arising by virtue of any prior or subsequent such occurrence.
(i)    Severability.  Any term or provision of this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction.
(j)    Expenses.  Each of Buyer and Seller will bear their own costs and expenses (including legal fees and expenses) incurred in connection with this Agreement and the Contemplated Transactions; provided, that at Closing Buyer will bear all of the expenses of Cyprium Investment Partners LLC and Osgood Capital Group, LLC incurred in connection with this Agreement and the Contemplated Transactions.
(k)    Construction.  The Parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement.  In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the Parties and no presumption or burden of 











proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any Party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of the Transaction Agreements.  
(l)    Currency.  Any reference to currency contained in this Agreement shall be interpreted to mean United States Dollars unless specifically stated otherwise on an instance by instance basis.  All payments made under this Agreement will be made in United States Dollars, translated, if necessary, using the exchange rates consistent with GAAP. 
(m)    Financing Sources.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Financing Source under the Commitment Letters or any other agreements entered into in connection with the Debt Financing shall have any liabilities (whether in contract or in tort, in law or in equity, or granted by statute) for any claims, causes of action, obligations or liabilities arising under, out of, in connection with or related in any manner to this Agreement or based on, in respect of or by reason of this Agreement, any other Transaction Agreement, their negotiation, execution, performance or Breach or the Contemplated Transactions.  Each Seller Company agrees, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, that none of the Financing Sources shall have any liability or obligations to any Seller Company or any of its Affiliates relating to this Agreement, any of the other Transaction Agreements or any of the transactions contemplated herein or therein (including with respect to the Debt Financing).  Each Seller Company and its Affiliates waive any and all claims and causes of action (whether in contract or in tort, in law or in equity, or granted by statute) against any Financing Sources that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement, any other Transaction Agreement, their negotiation, execution, performance or Breach or the Contemplated Transactions, any financing commitment or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (including the Debt Financing).  The Parties agree that only the Buyer shall be permitted to bring or support any claim against any financing source under the Commitment Letters or any other agreements entered into in connection with the Debt Financing for failing to satisfy any obligation to fund the Debt Financing pursuant to the terms of the applicable Commitment Letter for the purpose of funding the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.  This Section 10(m) is intended to benefit and may be enforced by the Financing Sources and shall be binding on all successors and assigns of Seller Companies.
(n)    Time of the Essence.  Time is of the essence of this Agreement. Whenever the last day for the exercise of any privilege or the discharge of any duty hereunder shall fall upon a Saturday, Sunday, or any date on which banks in New York City, New York are authorized or required to be closed, the party having such privilege or duty may exercise such privilege or discharge such duty on the next succeeding day which is a Business Day. When calculating the period of time before which, within which or following which any act is to be done or step taken pursuant to this Agreement, the date that is the reference date in calculating such period will be excluded.
(o)    Remedies Cumulative; Specific Performance.  The rights and remedies of the parties hereto shall be cumulative (and not alternative).  The parties agree that irreparable damage will occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement are not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise Breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent Breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement and this right shall include the right of the parties to cause the Contemplated Transactions to be consummated on the terms set forth in this 











Agreement, in each case without posting a bond or undertaking, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity or pursuant to this Agreement. Each of the parties hereto hereby waives any defenses in any action for specific performance, including the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, it is agreed that the right of Seller to seek specific performance to cause Buyer to fund the Purchase Price and to consummate the Closing shall be subject to the requirements that (i) all of the conditions set forth in Section 7(a) are satisfied (other than those conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of such conditions at the Closing) and Buyer fails to consummate the Closing on the date required pursuant to Section 2(g), (ii) the Debt Financing has been funded in accordance with the terms thereof or will be funded in accordance with the terms thereof at the Closing if the Equity Financing is funded at the Closing and (iii) Seller has delivered written notice to Buyer irrevocably confirming that the conditions set forth in Section 7(a) have been satisfied or waived, that it is ready, willing and able to complete the Closing if specific performance is granted and the Equity Financing and the Debt Financing are funded, and that Seller will take all actions that are within its control to cause the Closing to occur.  It is expressly agreed that the Financing Sources are third party beneficiaries of this Section 10(o).
