          9.4 Notice and Defense of Third Party Claims.The obligations and liabilities of an Indemnifying Person (as defined herein) with respect to Indemnifiable Damages resulting from the assertion of liability by third parties (each, a “Third Party Claim”) shall be subject to the terms and conditions set forth below.

          (a) The Indemnified Persons (as defined herein) shall give prompt written notice to the Indemnifying Persons of any Third Party Claim which might give rise to any Indemnifiable Damages by the Indemnified Persons, stating the nature and basis of such Third Party Claim, and the amount thereof to the extent known; provided, however, that no delay on the part of the Indemnified Persons in notifying any Indemnifying Persons shall relieve the Indemnifying Persons from any liability hereunder, unless (and then solely to the extent) such Indemnifying Persons are actually prejudiced or damaged in any material respect by such delay. Such notice shall be accompanied by copies of all relevant documentation with respect to such Third Party Claim, including, without limitation, any summons, complaint or other pleading which may have been served, any written demand or any other document or instrument directly relating thereto.

          (b) If the Indemnifying Persons shall acknowledge, in a writing delivered to the Indemnified Persons, that the Indemnifying Persons are obligated to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Indemnified Persons under the terms of their indemnification obligations hereunder in connection with a particular Third Party Claim, then the Indemnifying Persons shall have the right to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim at their own expense and by their own counsel, which counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Persons; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Persons shall not have the right to assume the defense of such

34


Third Party Claim, notwithstanding the giving of such written acknowledgment, if (i) the claim seeks only an injunction or other equitable relief; (ii) the Indemnified Persons shall have been advised by counsel that there are one or more legal or equitable defenses available to them which are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Persons, and, in the reasonable opinion of the Indemnified Persons, counsel for the Indemnifying Persons could not adequately represent the interests of the Indemnified Persons because such interests could be in conflict with those of the Indemnifying Persons; (iii) such action or Proceeding involves, or could have a material effect on, any material matter beyond the scope of the indemnification obligation of the Indemnifying Persons; or (iv) the Indemnifying Persons shall not have assumed the defense of such Third Party Claim in a timely fashion.

          (c) If the Indemnifying Persons elect to assume the defense of any such Third Party Claim (under circumstances in which the proviso in Section 9.4(b) is not applicable), the Indemnifying Persons shall consult with Indemnified Persons and the Indemnified Persons may participate in such defense, but in such case the expenses of Indemnified Persons shall be paid by Indemnified Persons. If the Indemnifying Persons fail to defend a Third Party Claim, are otherwise restricted from so defending, or if, after commencing or undertaking any such defense, the Indemnifying Persons fail to prosecute or withdraw from such defense, the Indemnified Persons shall have the right to undertake the defense or settlement thereof, at the Indemnifying Persons’ expense. If Indemnified Persons assume the defense of any such Third Party Claim in accordance with the terms hereof and propose to settle such Third Party Claim prior to a final judgment thereon, then Indemnified Persons shall give the Indemnifying Persons prompt written notice thereof, and the Indemnified Persons may not settle such Third Party Claim without the written consent of the Indemnifying Persons, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

          (d) If the Indemnifying Persons exercise their right to assume the defense of a Third Party Claim, they shall not make any settlement of any claims without the written consent of the Indemnified Persons, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, unless such settlement provides for a full release from liability of Indemnified Persons.

          (e) For purposes of this Agreement, “Indemnified Persons” means Buyer Indemnitees and Seller Indemnitees, as the case may be, and “Indemnifying Persons” means persons required to provide indemnification with respect to Indemnifiable Damages under this Article IX.

          9.5 Limitations upon Indemnification.

                    (a) No Indemnifying Person shall have any liability for any Indemnifiable Damages for breaches of representations and warranties unless and until the aggregate amount of such Indemnifiable Damages exceeds fifty thousand dollars ($50,000) (the “Indemnification Threshold”), in which case the indemnifying party shall be liable to the extent that the aggregate Indemnifiable Damages exceed the Indemnification Threshold. Materiality qualifications shall not be taken into account in determining the magnitude of Indemnifiable Damages for purposes of calculating the Indemnification Threshold.

                    (b) Notwithstanding anything provided in this Agreement to the contrary, (i) the Indemnification Threshold shall not apply with respect to, and Buyer Indemnitees and/or

35


Seller Indemnitees, as applicable, shall be entitled to the full amount of any Indemnifiable Damages resulting from, any intentional breach of a representation or warranty or fraud and (ii) the Indemnification Threshold shall not limit the Buyer’s right to Indemnifiable Damages arising from or in connection with Pre-Closing Taxes or Sellers’ obligation under Section 10.6 of this Agreement.

                    (c) The amount of the liability of any Indemnifying Person shall be determined taking into account any applicable insurance proceeds received by the Indemnified Person.

          9.6 Assertion and Payment of Claims.

                    (a) No claim shall be brought under this Article IX unless the Indemnified Persons, or any of them, at any time prior to the applicable Survival Date, give the Indemnifying Persons (i) written notice of the existence of any such claim, specifying the nature and basis of such claim and the amount thereof, to the extent known, or (ii) written notice pursuant to Section 9.5 of any Third Party Claim, the existence of which would give rise to such a claim (each, an “Indemnification Demand”). Within ten (10) Business Days of the receipt of any Indemnification Demand, the Indemnifying Persons shall pay all or any portion of the claims identified in the Indemnification Demand which such Indemnifying Persons do not dispute in good faith. In the event that the Indemnified Person are not paid the full amount of the claims identified in the Indemnification Demand with ten (10) Business Days of the receipt of any Indemnification Demand or any portion thereof or are otherwise informed by the Indemnifying Persons that the Indemnifying Persons dispute all or any portion of the claims identified in the Indemnification Demand, the Indemnified Persons, or any of them, shall have the right to commence Proceedings for the enforcement of their rights under this Article IX with respect to the claims identified in a Indemnification Demand, provided, however, that no Indemnifying Persons shall be required to pay the amount of any such claim for indemnification pursuant to this Article IX that is disputed in good faith by such Indemnifying Persons until the final adjudication of the relevant Proceedings.

                    (b) Upon a determination of Indemnifiable Damages in connection with and in accordance this Article IX, the Indemnifying Persons shall pay the Indemnified Persons the amount so determined within ten (10) Business Days after the date of determination in accordance with terms of this Article IX, provided that in the event that Timmer shall have any liability to Buyer for any Indemnifiable Damages, Buyer may elect to satisfy the payment of such Indemnifiable Damages through set-off against (i) any amounts which remain unpaid pursuant to the Note issued by Buyer to Timmer pursuant to Section 1.2 hereof and (ii) any amounts owed to Timmer pursuant to the Earn-Out Agreement.

                    (c) Subject to the limitations in Section 9.5 hereof, any obligation of the Sellers to pay Buyer Indemnifiable Damages to Indemnified Persons shall be satisfied from each of the Sellers, in proportion to amount of the Purchase Price received by each Seller.

          Notice shall be deemed given on the date sent if sent by facsimile transmission and on the date delivered (or the date of refusal of delivery) if sent by overnight delivery or certified or registered mail.

          12.2 Entire Agreement; No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement (including the exhibits and schedules attached hereto) and other documents delivered at the Closing pursuant hereto contain the entire understanding of the parties in respect of its subject matter and supersede all prior agreements and understandings (oral or written) between or among the parties with respect to such subject matter. The parties agree that prior drafts of this Agreement shall not be deemed to provide any evidence as to the meaning of any provision hereof or the intent of the parties with respect thereto. The exhibits and schedules constitute a part hereof as though set forth in full above. Except for persons expressly stated herein to be indemnitees or as otherwise expressly stated herein, this Agreement is not intended to confer upon any Person, other than the parties hereto, any rights or remedies hereunder.

          12.3 Amendment; Waiver. This Agreement may not be modified, amended, supplemented, canceled or discharged, except by written instrument executed by all parties. No failure to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or privilege under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder preclude the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. No waiver of any breach of any provision shall be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding or succeeding breach of the same or any other provision, nor shall any waiver be implied from any course of dealing between the parties. No extension of time for performance of any obligations or other acts hereunder or under any other agreement shall be deemed to be an extension of the time for performance of any other obligations or any other acts. The rights and remedies of the parties under this Agreement are in addition to all other rights and remedies, at law or equity, that they may have against each other.

46


          12.4 Binding Effect; Assignment. The rights and obligations of this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and assigns. Nothing expressed or implied herein shall be construed to give any other person any legal or equitable rights hereunder. The rights and obligations of this Agreement may not be assigned by Buyer without the prior written consent of Seller except to a wholly-owned direct or indirect subsidiary of Buyer. The rights and obligations of this Agreement may not be assigned by Seller without the prior written consent of Buyer.

          12.5 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. A telecopy signature of any party shall be considered to have the same binding legal effect as an original signature.

          12.6 Interpretation. When a reference is made in this Agreement to an article, section, paragraph, clause, schedule or exhibit, such reference shall be deemed to be to this Agreement unless otherwise indicated. The headings contained herein and on the schedules are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement or the schedules. Whenever the words “include,” “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.”

          12.7 Construction. The parties agree and acknowledge that they have jointly participated 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 presumptions or burdens of proof shall arise favoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement. Any reference to any federal, state, local, or foreign statute or law shall be deemed also to refer to all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, unless the context requires otherwise. If any party has breached any representation, warranty, or covenant contained herein in any respect, the fact that there exists another representation, warranty, or covenant relating to the same subject matter (regardless of the relative levels of specificity) which the party has not breached shall not detract from or mitigate the fact that the party is in breach of the first representation, warranty, or covenant. The mere listing (or inclusion of copy) of a document or other item shall not be deemed adequate to disclose an exception to a representation or warranty made herein (unless the representation or warranty relates solely to the existence of the document or other items itself or unless a reasonable person would deem such listing or inclusion adequate to disclose such exception).

          12.8 Governing Law; Severability. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed for all purposes by the laws of the State of New York applicable to contracts executed and to be wholly performed within such State. If any word, phrase, sentence, clause, section, subsection or provision of this Agreement as applied to any party or to any circumstance is adjudged by a court to be invalid or unenforceable, the same will in no way affect any other circumstance or the validity or enforceability of any other word, phrase, sentence, clause, section, subsection or provision of this Agreement. If any provision of this Agreement, or any part thereof, is held to be unenforceable because of the duration of such provision or the area covered thereby, the parties agree that the court making such determination shall have the power to reduce the duration and/or area of such provision, and/or to delete specific words or phrases, and in its reduced form, such provision shall then be enforceable and shall be enforced.

47


          12.9 Waiver of Jury Trial. IN ANY CIVIL ACTION, COUNTERCLAIM, OR PROCEEDING, WHETHER AT LAW OR IN EQUITY, WHICH ARISES OUT OF, CONCERNS OR RELATES TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREUNDER, THE PERFORMANCE HEREOF OR THE RELATIONSHIP CREATED HEREBY, WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT, STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHERWISE, TRIAL SHALL BE TO A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION AND NOT TO A JURY. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT (STATUTORY, CONSTITUTIONAL, COMMON LAW OR OTHERWISE) IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY. ANY PARTY MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS AGREEMENT WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE WAIVER OF THE OTHER PARTIES’ RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY. NO PARTY HAS MADE OR RELIED UPON ANY ORAL REPRESENTATIONS BY ANY OTHER PARTY REGARDING THE ENFORCEABILITY OF THIS PROVISION. EACH PARTY HAS READ AND UNDERSTANDS THE EFFECT OF THIS JURY WAIVER PROVISION.
