 7
 

 

 

 

 
 

 

 (f)
 Available Information.  Each Stockholder has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of investment in BBLU.
 (g)
 Non-Registration.  Each Stockholder understands that the BBLU Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and if issued in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, will be issued by reason of a specific exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act which depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the investment intent and the accuracy of the Stockholder’s representations as expressed herein.
 (h)
 Restricted Securities.  Each Stockholder understands that the BBLU Shares are characterized as “restricted securities” under the Securities Act inasmuch as this Agreement contemplates that, if acquired by the Stockholder pursuant hereto, BBLU Shares would be acquired in a Merger not involving any public offering.  Each Stockholder further acknowledges that if BBLU Shares were issued to the Stockholder in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, such BBLU Shares may not be resold without registration under the Securities Act or the existence of an exemption therefrom.  In this connection, each Stockholder represents that such Stockholder is familiar with Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, as presently in effect, and understands the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the Securities Act.
 (i)
 Legends.  It is understood that the BBLU Shares will bear one or all of the following legends:
 (i)
 “THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED.  THEY MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED IN THE ABSENCE OF A REGISTRATION STATEMENT IN EFFECT WITH RESPECT TO THE SECURITIES UNDER SUCH ACT OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED OR UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OF SUCH ACT.”
 (ii)
 Any legend required by the “blue sky” laws of any state to the extent such laws are applicable to the securities represented by the certificate so legended.
 (j)
 Schedule 13D; Section 16(b).  If the number of BBLU Shares acquired by any Stockholder, when aggregated with all other shares of common stock of BBLU owned by such Stockholder at such time would result in the Stockholder beneficially owning (as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) and the rules thereunder) in excess of 4.99% of the then issued and outstanding BBLU Shares and the BBLU Shares are then registered under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act, such Stockholder shall comply with the disclosure requirements of  Schedule 13D  and, if such amount exceeds 9.99%, such Stockholder shall also comply under the reporting obligations of Sections 16(a) and 16(b) of the Exchange Act and the rules promulgated thereunder.  BBLU shall provide to Stockholders, at BBLU’s sole cost and expense, the services of BBLU’s legal counsel to advise and prepare all such documents and filings as may be necessary to allow Stockholders to comply with the requirements of the Exchange Act.

The Company is duly qualified or licensed to do business as a foreign corporation in good standing in the jurisdictions where the nature of its business or its ownership or leasing of its properties make such qualification necessary except where the failure to so qualify would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Change.

 Capitalization of Companies.  The Stockholders own in the aggregate all of the issued and outstanding equity interest of the Company, in each case free and clear of all Encumbrances, other than Encumbrances which will be extinguished on or prior to the Closing Date except for the security interest of a former shareholder in the Escrowed Shares.

The execution and delivery by the Company of this Agreement and the consummation by the Company of the Merger have been duly authorized and approved by the Board of Directors of the Company and no other corporate proceedings on the part of the Company are necessary to authorize this Agreement and the Merger.

The Unaudited Financials give a true and fair view, in all significant aspects, of the consolidated balance sheet position of the Company as at the Balance Sheet Date, and its consolidated results, and the Stockholders shall use their best efforts to have them contain sufficient and appropriate information for its adequate interpretation and comprehension according to U.S. GAAP.  The Stockholders recognize that the records as delivered to BBLU may require adjustments to be in accordance with GAAP.  BBLU shall work with the Stockholders to make such adjustments using the information provided by the Stockholders and the Company.  The Stockholders, as officers of the Company shall sign said audited financial statements once they are prepared.

 (a)
 Survival of Representations and Warranties.  All representations and warranties made by the Stockholders, the Company, Newco and BBLU in this Agreement, including without limitation all representations and warranties made in any Exhibit or Schedule hereto or certificate delivered hereunder, shall survive the Closing until the first anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Survival Date”); provided, however, that all representations and warranties made by the Stockholders in Sections 4(q), (r), (z) and (jj) hereof shall survive the Closing until and through one (1) month after the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations (the “Extended Survival Date”);  provided ,  however  , that representations which are the basis for claims asserted under this Agreement prior to the expiration of such applicable time periods shall also survive until the final resolution of those claims.  Covenants and other executory obligations contained in this Agreement shall survive the Closing.  The right to indemnification, payment of damages and other remedies based on representations, warranties, covenants and obligations in this Agreement shall not be affected by any investigation conducted or any knowledge acquired (or capable of being acquired) at any time, whether before or after the Closing Date, with respect to the accuracy or inaccuracy of or compliance with any such representation, warranty, covenant or obligation.
 (b)
 Indemnity by Stockholders.  Provided that the Merger contemplated by this Agreement is closed, the Stockholders hereby agree, severally and not jointly, to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Newco and BBLU and their respective Affiliates, shareholders, partners, Stockholders, directors, officers, employees and other agents and representatives from and against all liabilities, losses, costs or damages whatsoever (including expenses and reasonable fees of legal counsel) (“Claims”) arising out of or relating to Claims made prior to the Survival Date or the Extended Survival Date, if applicable, in the event that it is determined that such Claims arise out of or from or are based upon (i) the inaccuracy in any material respect of any representation or warranty contained in Section 4 made by the Stockholders, (ii) the non-performance by the Stockholders in any material respect of any covenant, agreement or obligation to be performed by the Stockholders under this Agreement; (iii) the assessment of any material federal, state local or other tax liabilities due and payable by the Company for all periods through the Closing Date.
 (c)
 Indemnification by Newco and BBLU.  Provided that the Merger contemplated by this Agreement is closed, Newco and BBLU hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Stockholders from and against all Claims arising out of or relating to Claims made prior to the Survival Date or the Extended Survival Date, if applicable, in the event that it is determined that such Claims arise out of or from or are based upon (i) the inaccuracy in any material respect of any representation or warranty contained in Section 5 by Newco and BBLU; (ii) the non-performance by Newco and BBLU in any material respect of any covenant, agreement or obligation to be performed by Newco and BBLU under this Agreement; and (iii) any liabilities arising out of the operation of the business of the Company after the Closing Date.
 (d)
 Defense of Claims.  Whenever any Claim shall arise for indemnification hereunder, the party entitled to indemnification (the “Indemnitee”) shall notify the indemnifying party (the “Indemnitor”) in writing within thirty (30) days after the Indemnitee has actual knowledge that it is entitled to indemnification of such Claim constituting the basis for such Claim (the “Notice of Claim”).  The Notice of Claim shall specify all facts known to the
 

 27
 

 

 

 

 
 

 

 Indemnitee giving rise to such indemnification claim and the amount or an estimate of the amount of the liability arising therefrom.
 If the facts giving rise to any such indemnification shall involve any actual, threatened or possible claim or demand by any person against the Indemnitee, the Indemnitor shall be entitled (without prejudice to the right of the Indemnitee to participate at its expense through co-counsel of its own choosing) to contest or defend such claim at his expense and through counsel of his own choosing if he gives written notice of his intention to do so to the Indemnitee within ten (10) days after receipt of the Notice of Claim; provided that Indemnitor diligently prosecutes or defends such claim.
 The Indemnitee shall not settle any claim that would give rise to liability on the part of the Indemnitor under the indemnity contained in this Section without the written consent of the Indemnitor, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld.  If a firm offer is made to settle a claim or litigation defended by the Indemnitee and the Indemnitor refuses to accept such offer within twenty (20) days after receipt of written notice from the Indemnitee of the terms of such offer, then, in such event, the Indemnitee shall continue to contest or defend such claim and shall be indemnified pursuant to the terms hereof.  Provided, however, that in the event the Indemnitor refuses to accept such offer to settle a claim as described above and the Indemnitee continues to contest or defend such claim, the indemnification provided for herein shall be deemed to include the value of management’s time spent in connection with the defense of such claim.  If a firm offer is made to settle a claim or litigation and the Indemnitor notifies the Indemnitee in writing that the Indemnitor desires to accept and agree to such settlement, but the Indemnitee elects not to accept or agree to it, the Indemnitee may continue to contest or defend such claim or litigation and.  in such event, the total maximum liability of the Indemnitor to indemnify or otherwise reimburse the Indemnitee hereunder with respect to such claim or litigation shall be limited to and shall not exceed the amount of such settlement offer, plus reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) to the date of notice that the Indemnitor desires to accept such settlement.
 Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, neither Stockholders’ nor Newco’s maximum liability for indemnification shall exceed the Merger Consideration.
 Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, no claim for indemnification pursuant to this Section 6 by the Indemnitee shall be asserted or claimed except for the amount of such Claim in excess of the aggregate, the sum of $25,000 (the “Stockholders’ Basket”).  Any Loss suffered by Newco for payment of any insurance deductible in connection with any proceedings shall be excluded from the Stockholders’ Basket.
 All claims for indemnification against the Stockholders shall be satisfied by the Stockholders severally and not jointly, at their option, either in cash or in BBLU Shares at their then Market Price after a final judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction.
 (e)
 Notwithstanding any provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, the remedies available under this Section 6 shall be the sole and exclusive remedies of BBLU as between BBLU and Stockholders in relation to this Agreement, but this Section 6 shall not affect any legal or equitable rights, if any, that the Stockholders or any of them may have to seek indemnification or contribution among the Stockholders or any of them.

 (ii)
 1,833,219 BBLU Shares issued to the Class B Unit Members to purchase the 11,136,197 Class B Units.

The quarterly Earn-Out Payout shall equal the greater of the Minimum Earn-Out Payment (defined below) or ten (10%) percent of the Profits (as defined below) of the Surviving Company on a stand-alone basis up to the total of the full Earn-Out Payment. “Profits” shall mean the net earnings, after returns, discounts and allowances of the Surviving Company (as a separate wholly owned subsidiary) as of the end of a fiscal quarter, as determined by BBLU auditors in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States applied consistently throughout the Earn-Out Period; provided, however, that “Profits” shall be calculated before any BBLU deductions, expense charges, or SG&A allocations or other BBLU overhead allocations. Profits shall be calculated on the Surviving Company’s performance, without including the operating revenues and expenses of other business units of BBLU.
 A quarterly Earn-Out Payment shall be issued to the Class A Unit Member in BBLU Shares to be issued within thirty (30) days after the end of each fiscal quarter during the Earn-Out Period except for the fourth quarter, which shall have a different time to coincide with annual audits.

The Earn-Out Calculation for each quarter in such fiscal year shall become final and shall be deemed conclusively accepted by all parties when the audited numbers are filed for each fiscal year. The quarterly calculations shall be subject to correction and a true up on the basis of the audited numbers. The timeline for issuing shares at the end of the fourth quarter, which shall include any true ups for accounting adjustments to previous quarters made during the audit, shall be within five days of the issuance of the audit.  The Parties acknowledge and agree that the financial numbers originate from the Company as a business unit of BBLU and that any adjustments will be made in accordance with GAAP rules as required for BBLU to report as a

Each party shall treat the Merger consistently with the foregoing, including filing the information and maintaining the records required by Treasury Regulations Section 1.368-3, and shall not take any position inconsistent therewith.

All representations and warranties made by the Key Members, the Company, the Buyer and BBLU in this Agreement, including without limitation all representations and warranties made in any Exhibit or Schedule hereto or certificate delivered hereunder, shall survive the Closing until the first anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Survival Date”); provided, however, that all representations and warranties made by the Key Members in Sections 4(j), 4(k), and 4(cc) hereof shall survive the Closing until and through one (1) month after the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations (the “Extended Survival Date”);  provided ,  however  , that representations which are the basis for claims asserted under this Agreement prior to the expiration of such applicable time periods shall also survive until the final resolution of those claims.  Covenants and other executory obligations contained in this Agreement shall survive the Closing.  No party shall have the right to indemnification, payment of damages and other remedies based on the inaccuracy or a breach of representations, warranties, covenants and obligations in this Agreement if the party seeking such indemnification or payment or other remedies had knowledge acquired at any time before the Closing Date, with respect to the inaccuracy of or breach of any such representation, warranty, covenant or obligation.
 (b)
 Indemnity by Members.  The Key Members hereby agree, severally and not jointly, to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Buyer and BBLU and their respective Affiliates, shareholders, partners, members, directors, officers, employees and other agents and representatives from and against all liabilities, losses, costs or damages whatsoever (including expenses and reasonable fees of legal counsel) (“Claims”) arising out of or relating to Claims made prior to the Survival Date or the Extended Survival Date, if applicable, in the event that it is determined that such Claims arise out of or from or are based upon (i) the inaccuracy in any material respect of any representation or warranty contained in Section 4 made by the Key Members, (ii) the non-performance by the Key Members in any material respect of any covenant, agreement or obligation to be performed by the Key Members under this Agreement; (iii) the assessment of any material federal, state local or other tax liabilities due and payable by the Company for all periods through December 31, 2012.
 

 

 25
 

 

 

 

 
 

 (c)
 Indemnification by Buyer and BBLU.  The Buyer and BBLU hereby agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Members from and against all Claims arising out of or from or based upon (i) the inaccuracy in any material respect of any representation or warranty contained in Section 5 by the Buyer and BBLU; (ii) the non-performance by the Buyer and BBLU in any material respect of any covenant, agreement or obligation to be performed by the Buyer and BBLU under this Agreement; and (iii) any liabilities arising out of the operation of the business of the Company by Buyer after the Closing Date.
 (d)
 Defense of Claims.  Whenever any Claim shall arise for indemnification hereunder, the party entitled to indemnification (the “Indemnitee”) shall notify the indemnifying party (the “Indemnitor”) in writing within 30 days after the Indemnitee has actual knowledge that it is entitled to indemnification of such Claim constituting the basis for such Claim (the “Notice of Claim”).  The Notice of Claim shall specify all facts known to the Indemnitee giving rise to such indemnification claim and the amount or an estimate of the amount of the liability arising therefrom.
 If the facts giving rise to any such indemnification shall involve any actual, threatened or possible claim or demand by any person against the Indemnitee, the Indemnitor shall be entitled (without prejudice to the right of the Indemnitee to participate at its expense through co-counsel of its own choosing) to contest or defend such claim at Indemnitor's expense and through counsel of Indemnitor's own choosing if Indemnitor gives written notice of Indemnitor's intention to do so to the Indemnitee within 10 days after receipt of the Notice of Claim; provided that Indemnitor diligently prosecutes or defends such claim.
 The Indemnitee shall not settle any claim that would give rise to liability on the part of the Indemnitor under the indemnity contained in this Section without the written consent of the Indemnitor, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld. If a firm offer is made to settle a claim or litigation defended by the Indemnitee and the Indemnitor refuses to accept such offer within 20 days after receipt of written notice from the Indemnitee of the terms of such offer, then, in such event, the Indemnitee shall continue to contest or defend such claim and shall be indemnified pursuant to the terms hereof. Provided, however, that in the event the Indemnitor refuses to accept such offer to settle a claim as described above and the Indemnitee continues to contest or defend such claim, the indemnification provided for herein shall be deemed to include the value of management’s time spent in connection with the defense of such claim.  If a firm offer is made to settle a claim or litigation and the Indemnitor notifies the Indemnitee in writing that the Indemnitor desires to accept and agree to such settlement, but the Indemnitee elects not to accept or agree to it, the Indemnitee may continue to contest or defend such claim or litigation and. in such event, the total maximum liability of the Indemnitor to indemnify or otherwise reimburse the Indemnitee hereunder with respect to such claim or litigation shall be limited to and shall not exceed the amount of such settlement offer, plus reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) to the date of notice that the Indemnitor desires to accept such settlement.
 Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, (i) the Buyer’s maximum liability for indemnification shall not exceed the total of the Merger Consideration and the maximum Earn-Out Payment, and (ii) each individual Member's maximum liability for indemnification shall not exceed an amount equal to the number of shares issued to such
 

 

 26
 

 

 

 

 
 

 Member at the Closing multiplied by the value per each issued share obtained by dividing the non-contingent Merger Consideration by the total number of BBLU Shares issued at Closing.
 Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, no claim for indemnification pursuant to this  Section 6  by the Indemnitee shall be asserted or claimed except for the amount of such Claim in excess of the aggregate, the sum of $25,000 (the “Members’ Basket”).  Any Loss suffered by Buyer for payment of any insurance deductible in connection with any proceedings shall be excluded from the Members’ Basket.
 All claims for indemnification against the Members shall be satisfied by the Members severally and not jointly, at their option, either in cash or in BBLU Shares at their then Market Price.
 (e)
 Notwithstanding any provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, the remedies available to Buyer under this Section 6  shall be the sole and exclusive remedies of Buyer as between Buyer and Members in relation to this Agreement, but this  Section 6  shall not affect any legal or equitable rights, if any, that the Members or any of them may have to seek indemnification or contribution among the Members or any of them.
