(ii)         If Seller does not notify Purchaser in writing within forty-five (45) calendar days after Seller’s receipt of the Closing Date Statement that it disputes any of the information or calculations provided to Seller in the Closing Date Statement, the Closing Date Statement shall be final and conclusive. If Seller disagrees with any of the information or calculations provided by Purchaser in the Closing Date Statement, Seller may, within forty-five (45) calendar days after delivery of such statement to it, deliver a written notice to Purchaser stating the existence and nature of such disagreement. Any such notice of disagreement shall specify those items or amounts as to which Seller disagrees. If such notice of disagreement is delivered, the parties shall use their reasonable best efforts to reach agreement on the disputed items or amounts within ten (10) Business Days after Purchaser’s receipt of such notice. If the parties are unable to reach agreement on the disputed items within such period, then the issues in dispute will be submitted to a mutually agreed firm of nationally recognized independent certified public accountants (the “Accountants”) for review and resolution, with instructions to complete the review as promptly as practicable. Each party will furnish to the Accountants such workpapers and other documents and information relating to the disputed issues as the Accountants may request and are available to that party or its Affiliates (or its independent public accountants), and will be afforded the opportunity to present to the Accountants any material relating to the determination and to discuss the determination with the Accountants. The parties shall instruct the Accountants that their determination shall not result in a Peanuts Adjustment in an amount higher than the Peanuts Adjustment proposed by Seller (or its Affiliates) or an amount lower than the Peanuts Adjustment proposed by Purchaser. The resolution of the Accountants in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.2 shall be conclusive and binding on the parties. Seller and Purchaser shall each pay one-half of the fees and expenses charged by the Accountants.

Within ninety (90) days following the Closing Date, Purchaser shall prepare and deliver to Seller for its review and approval IRS Form 8594 and any required exhibits thereto, setting forth the Allocation. Seller shall notify Purchaser of any objections to the Allocation within thirty (30) days of receipt of the Allocation. If no such objections are made within such thirty (30)-day period, the Allocation shall become final. If Seller notifies Purchaser within such thirty (30)-day period that it objects to one or more items reflected on the Allocation, Seller and Purchaser shall negotiate in good faith to resolve such dispute. If Seller and Purchaser fail to resolve any such dispute within thirty (30) days of Purchaser’s receipt of Seller’s notice, then Seller and Purchaser shall submit the items of the Allocation in dispute for resolution to an independent valuation or accounting firm of international reputation mutually acceptable to Seller and Purchaser, which shall, as soon as practicable after such submission, determine and report to Seller and Purchaser its resolution of the Allocation. The report of such firm shall be final and binding upon the parties hereto. The fees for such firm shall be borne equally between Seller, on the one hand, and Purchaser, on the other hand.

In the event that the Allocation, as finally determined, is disputed by any Taxing Authority, the party receiving notice of such dispute shall promptly notify and consult with the other parties and keep the other parties apprised of material developments concerning resolution of such dispute. Each of Purchaser and Seller hereby agrees to revise the Allocation to reflect any adjustment to the Purchase Price pursuant to this Agreement.

(a)          Purchaser has the requisite corporate power and authority and has taken all corporate or other action necessary to execute and deliver this Agreement and all other instruments and agreements to be delivered by Purchaser as contemplated hereby, to perform its obligations hereunder and thereunder and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. The execution, delivery and performance by Purchaser of this Agreement and all other instruments and agreements to be delivered by Purchaser as contemplated hereby, the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and the performance of its obligations hereunder and thereunder have been, and in the case of documents required to be delivered at the Closing will be, duly authorized and approved by the board of directors of Purchaser. This Agreement has been, and all other instruments and agreements to be executed and delivered by Purchaser as contemplated hereby will be, duly executed and delivered by Purchaser. Assuming that this Agreement and all such other instruments and agreements constitute valid and binding obligations of Seller and each other Person (other than Purchaser) party thereto, this Agreement and all such other instruments and agreements constitute valid and binding obligations of Purchaser, enforceable against Purchaser in accordance with the terms thereof, except to the extent that such enforcement may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar Laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

 

(b)          The execution and delivery of this Agreement and all other instruments and agreements to be delivered by Purchaser as contemplated hereby do not, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby will not, (i) conflict with any of the provisions of the certificate of incorporation or by-laws or similar governance documents of Purchaser, in each case, as amended to the date of this Agreement, (ii) conflict with or result in a breach of, or constitute a default under, or result in the acceleration of any obligation or loss of any benefits under, any Contract or other instrument to which Purchaser is a party or by which Purchaser or any of its properties or assets are bound or (iii) subject to (x) the applicable requirements of the HSR Act and any other applicable Antitrust Laws and (y) receipt of the consents, approvals, authorizations, declarations, filings and notices referred to in Section 5.3 of the Purchaser Disclosure Letter, contravene any Law or any Order applicable to Purchaser or by which any of its properties or assets are bound, except in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above, for such conflicts, breaches, defaults, consents, approvals, authorizations, declarations, filings or notices which do not and would not reasonably be expected to, individually or in the aggregate, prevent, materially delay or impair Purchaser’s ability to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

 

5.3           Consents and Approvals. Assuming all required Antitrust Filings are made and any waiting periods thereunder have been terminated or expired and any consents required thereunder have been obtained, except as set forth in Section 5.3 of the Purchaser Disclosure Letter, no consent of or filing with any Governmental Entity or any other Person must be obtained or made by Purchaser in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement by Purchaser or the consummation by Purchaser of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, except for any consents, approvals, authorizations or filings, which have been obtained or made or, if not made or obtained, do not and would not reasonably be expected to, individually or in the aggregate, prevent, materially delay or impair Purchaser’s ability to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

5.4           Available Funds.

 

(a)          Purchaser has, as of the date of this Agreement, committed financing and will have, on the Closing Date, unrestricted cash on hand and, if necessary, unrestricted cash available to it under credit facilities in place on the date hereof, sufficient to consummate the transaction contemplated hereby.

 

(b)          Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, Purchaser has delivered to Seller true, correct and complete copies of an executed debt commitment letter and each executed fee letter and engagement letter associated therewith (provided, that provisions in the fee or engagement letter related solely to fees and economic terms (other than covenants) agreed to by the parties may be redacted), dated as of the date hereof (such commitment letter(s), including all exhibits, schedules, annexes, supplements and amendments thereto and each such fee letter and engagement letter, collectively, the “Debt Commitment Letter”), from Royal Bank of Canada and Jeffries Finance LLC (the “Debt Financing Source”) providing the terms and conditions upon which the Debt Financing Source has committed to provide up to six hundred fifteen million dollars ($615,000,000) (the “Debt Financing Proceeds”) of debt financing (the “Debt Financing”). The Debt Commitment Letter in the form so delivered is valid and in full force and effect with respect to Purchaser and, to the Knowledge of the Purchaser, each other party thereto, such commitments have not been withdrawn, terminated or otherwise amended or modified in any respect, and no event has occurred that, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, would constitute a default or breach on the part of Purchaser under any term or condition of the Debt Commitment Letter. The Debt Commitment Letter (together with the fee letter referred to therein) constitutes the entire and complete agreement between the parties thereto with respect to the financings contemplated thereby, and, except as set forth, described or provided for in the Debt Commitment Letter, (i) there are no conditions precedent to the respective obligations of the Debt Financing Source to provide the Debt Financing, and (ii) there are no contractual contingencies or other provisions under any agreement (including any side letters) relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to which Purchaser or any of its Affiliates is a party that would permit the Debt Financing Source to reduce the total amount of the Debt Financing Proceeds available under the Debt Financing or impose any additional conditions precedent to the availability of the Debt Financing. Purchaser has fully paid any and all commitment fees, if any, or other fees required by the Debt Commitment Letter to be paid as of the date hereof. As of the date hereof, Purchaser has no reason to believe that any of the conditions to the Debt Financing will not be satisfied on a timely basis or that the funding contemplated in the Debt Financing will not be made available to Purchaser on a timely basis in order to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Debt Financing Proceeds available under the Debt Financing are sufficient to pay the Purchase Price and all of Purchaser’s and its Affiliates’ fees and expenses associated with the transaction contemplated in this Agreement in accordance with the terms hereof. The obligations of Purchaser under this Agreement are not contingent on the availability of financing.

There is no action, suit, proceeding at law or in equity, or any arbitration by, before or against any Governmental Entity or any other Person pending, or, to the Knowledge of the Purchaser, threatened in writing, against or affecting Purchaser, or any of its properties or rights, which if determined adversely would reasonably be expected to, individually or in the aggregate, prevent, materially delay or impair Purchaser’s ability to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Purchaser is not subject to any Order which seeks to or would reasonably be expected to, individually or in the aggregate, prevent, materially delay or impair Purchaser’s ability to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

5.7           Investigation and Acknowledgment by Purchaser. Purchaser has conducted its own independent investigation, verification, review and analysis of the Company and Business, results of operations, financial condition, software, technology and prospects of the Business, which investigation, review and analysis was conducted by Purchaser and its Affiliates and, to the extent Purchaser deemed appropriate, by Purchaser’s Representatives. Purchaser acknowledges that it and its Representatives have been provided adequate access to the personnel, properties, premises and records of the Business. Purchaser acknowledges that the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement are exclusive of any other representations and warranties, express or implied, and that neither Seller nor any of its Affiliates, Representatives or any other Person makes or has made any representation or warranty, either express or implied, as to the accuracy or completeness of any of the information provided or made available to Purchaser or any of its Affiliates and Representatives, except as and only to the extent expressly set forth in this Agreement and subject to the limitations and restrictions contained in this Agreement.

 

5.8           Exclusivity of Representations. THE REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES BY PURCHASER CONTAINED IN ARTICLE V CONSTITUTE THE SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF PURCHASER TO SELLER IN CONNECTION WITH THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, AND SELLER UNDERSTANDS, ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ALL OTHER REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND OR NATURE EXPRESS OR IMPLIED ARE SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMED BY PURCHASER.

If required by applicable Law, the parties hereto shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, join in the execution of any such Returns and other documentation; provided, however, that, to the extent that Seller is required to join in the execution of any such Return or documentation, Purchaser shall prepare and deliver to Seller a copy of such Return at least five (5) Business Days before the due date thereof and shall not file such Return without the consent of Seller, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

 

(b)          (i)         All Returns, including any amendments thereto, for Taxes and Tax items relating to the operations or assets of the Company, but not imposed on the Company (to the extent such Tax items are reflected on or affect the amounts reported on the Returns of the Company) for any tax period ending on or before the Closing Date (including any tax period ending on the Closing Date as a result of a technical termination) (“Flow-Through Returns”) shall be prepared and filed in the sole discretion of Seller; provided, however, Seller shall: (A) prepare such Flow-Through Returns in a manner consistent with past practice unless otherwise required by law, and (B) not change any tax election nor make any new tax election on such Flow-Through Returns, which tax election is required to remain in effect on any Tax Return that includes, in whole or in part, any period after the Closing Date, without the consent of Purchaser, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(ii)         All Returns, including any amendments thereto, for Taxes and Tax items relating to the operations or assets of the Company, that are imposed on the Company for periods ending on or prior to the Closing Date (the “Non-Flow-Through Returns”) shall be prepared by Seller and copies of such Returns shall be provided to the Purchaser for review and approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

6.10         Financing.

 

(a)          Purchaser shall use its best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things reasonably necessary, proper or advisable to arrange, obtain and consummate the Debt Financing on the terms and conditions described in the Debt Commitment Letter on or prior to the Closing Date for the purpose of, among other things, funding the Purchase Price. Such actions shall include: (i) maintaining in full force and effect and in all material respects the Debt Commitment Letter in the form provided to Seller concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, (ii) satisfying on a timely basis all of the conditions precedent and covenants to the Debt Financing applicable to Purchaser that are to be satisfied by Purchaser, (iii) negotiating, executing and delivering definitive documents (“Debt Financing Documents”) that reflect in all material respects the terms contained in the Debt Commitment Letter (including, as necessary, agreeing to any requested changes to the commitments thereunder in accordance with any “flex” provisions contained in the Debt Commitment Letter or any related fee letter), in each case which terms shall not in any material respect expand on the conditions to the funding of the Debt Financing Proceeds at the Closing or reduce the aggregate amount of the Debt Financing Proceeds available to be funded on the Closing Date, (iv) drawing such amount of the Debt Financing Proceeds as is necessary to satisfy Purchaser’s obligations under this Agreement and (v) fully enforcing its rights under the Debt Commitment Letter and the Debt Financing Documents in order to consummate the Debt Financing at or prior to the Closing. Without the prior written consent of Seller (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), Purchaser shall not permit or consent to any amendment, supplement or modification to be made to the Debt Commitment Letter if such amendment, supplement or modification imposes new or additional conditions to the initial funding or otherwise expands, amends or modifies any of the conditions to the receipt of the Debt Financing, or otherwise expands, amends or modifies any other provision of the Debt Commitment Letter, in a manner that would reasonably be expected to delay or prevent or make less likely the funding of the Debt Financing (or satisfaction of the conditions to the Debt Financing) on the Closing Date, provided that Purchaser may (1) amend the Debt Commitment Letter to add or replace lenders, lead arrangers, bookrunners, syndication agents or similar entities, (2) implement or exercise the “flex” provisions contained in one or more fee letters related to the Debt Financing and (3) reduce the Debt Financing on a dollar for dollar basis upon receipt of the proceeds of an offering of debt or equity securities (an “Equity Issuance”) on or after the date hereof. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that its obligations to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are not conditioned or contingent upon receipt of the Debt Financing Proceeds and a failure of the Closing to occur because Purchaser has not received the Debt Financing Proceeds shall constitute a material breach of this Agreement by Purchaser. Purchaser shall keep Seller fully informed, in all reasonable detail, of the status of its efforts to arrange the Debt Financing and shall, from the date hereof until the Closing Date, promptly notify Seller of the receipt by Purchaser of any written notice or other written communication from any Debt Financing Source with respect to any actual, threatened or alleged material breach, default, termination or repudiation by any party to any Debt Commitment Letter or any Debt Financing Document or any material provision of the Debt Financing contemplated pursuant to the Debt Commitment Letter or the Debt Financing Documents, provided that in no event will Purchaser be under any obligation to disclose any information shared among Purchaser and its professional advisors in connection with matters contemplated by this sentence that is subject to attorney-client or similar legal privilege. Purchaser shall promptly provide Seller, upon reasonable request, with copies of any Debt Financing Documents and such other information and documentation regarding the Debt Financing as shall be reasonably necessary to allow Seller to monitor the progress of such financing activities. Upon request, Purchaser shall provide Seller with written updates concerning the status of any Equity Issuance, including whether DHX intends to proceed with an Equity Issuance to raise part of the Purchase Price.

(b)          In the event of any notification or communication that the Debt Financing will not be available to Purchaser in accordance with the terms hereof, Purchaser shall use its best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable to arrange for and obtain as promptly as practicable following the occurrence of any such Financing Failure Event alternative debt financing (the “Alternative Financing”) on commercially reasonable terms, whether or not such terms are more or less favorable to Purchaser than the terms of the Debt Commitment Letter, in an amount sufficient to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and perform all of their obligations hereunder, it being understood and agreed that if Purchaser proceeds with any Alternative Financing, Purchaser shall be subject to the same obligations with respect to such Alternative Financing as set forth in this Agreement with respect to the Debt Financing. In the event that Alternative Financing is obtained, Purchaser shall promptly provide Seller with a copy of the new financing commitment that provides for such Alternative Financing (the “Alternative Financing Commitment Letter”). If applicable, any reference in this Agreement to “Debt Financing” shall include “Alternative Financing”, any reference to “Debt Commitment Letter” shall include the “Alternative Financing Commitment Letter” and any references to “Debt Financing Documents” shall include the definitive documentation relating to any such Alternative Financing.

 

(c)          From the date hereof and ending at the earlier of (i) the Closing Date and (ii) termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1, Seller shall cooperate and cause its officers, employees and advisors, including legal and accounting, to provide to Purchaser, at Purchaser’s sole expense, such reasonable cooperation in connection with the arrangement of the Debt Financing as may be reasonably requested by Purchaser; provided that Seller shall not be required to provide cooperation under this Section 6.10(c) that: (w) unreasonably interferes with the ongoing business of Seller or the Company; (x) causes any representation or warranty in this Agreement to be breached; (y) causes any closing condition set forth in Article VII to fail to be satisfied or otherwise causes the breach of this Agreement or any Contract to which Seller or the Company is a party; or (z) requires Seller or any of its directors, officers, managers or employees to execute, deliver or enter into, or perform any agreement, document or instrument, including any Debt Financing Document, with respect to the Debt Financing that is not contingent upon the Closing or that would be effective prior to the Closing and the directors and managers of Seller shall not be required to adopt resolutions approving the agreements, documents and instruments pursuant to which the Debt Financing is obtained, in each case which are effective prior to the Closing. In no event shall Seller be in breach of this Agreement because of the failure to deliver any financial or other information that is not currently readily available to Seller on the date hereof or is not otherwise prepared in the ordinary course of business of Seller at the time requested by Purchaser or for the failure to obtain review of any financial or other information by its accountants.

(d)          In no event shall Seller be required to pay any commitment or similar fee or incur any Liability (including due to any act or omission by Seller or its respective agents, other than acts or omissions constituting gross negligence or willful misconduct) or expense in connection with assisting Purchaser in arranging the Debt Financing or as a result of any information provided by Seller or any of its Affiliates or agents in connection therewith. Purchaser shall, from and after the Closing or promptly after the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1, (i) promptly upon request by Seller reimburse Seller for all documented out-of-pocket costs incurred in good faith by Seller in connection with such cooperation and (ii) indemnify and hold harmless Seller, and its Affiliates and agents from and against any and all Liabilities, Losses, damages, claims, costs, expenses, interest, awards, judgments and penalties suffered or incurred by them in connection with the arrangement of the Debt Financing or providing any of the information utilized in connection therewith, except to the extent of any of such Persons’ gross negligence or willful misconduct.

 

(e)          To the extent that this Section 6.10 requires Seller’s cooperation with respect to any of Purchaser’s obligations under the Debt Commitment Letter or relating to the Debt Financing, Seller shall be deemed to have complied with this Section 6.10 for purposes of Article VII of this Agreement if Seller has provided Purchaser with the assistance required under this Section 6.10 with respect to the Debt Commitment Letter and the Debt Financing. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the condition set forth in Section 7.2(a), as it applies to Seller’s obligations under this Section 6.10, shall be deemed satisfied unless the Debt Financing has not been obtained primarily as a direct result of Seller’s breach of its obligations under this Section 6.10.

 

6.11         Aged Accounts Receivable Credit. If, at any time within the ninety (90)-day period following the Closing, any Aged Accounts Receivable are paid to Purchaser or its Affiliates, including the Company, upon receipt of any such payments following the Closing, Purchaser and its Affiliates, including the Company, shall promptly, but in no event more than ten (10) Business Days following their receipt thereof, pay such amounts (net of their collection costs associated therewith) to Seller or Seller’s designee by wire transfer of immediately available funds as directed by Seller.

6.13         Payment to Wrong Party Following Closing. If following the Closing, either (a) Seller receives amounts that should have been paid to the Company directly for periods following the Closing or (b) the Company receives amounts that should have been allocated or paid to Seller for periods prior the Closing (each, a “Misdirected Payment”), then the party receiving a Misdirected Payment shall promptly, but in no event more than five (5) Business Days following their receipt thereof, pay such amounts (net of their collection costs associated therewith) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the correct party who should have received the payment directly from the Third Party in the first instance according to payment instructions from such party.

 

6.14         Transfer of Domain Name Registrations. Purchaser acknowledges that certain domain name registrations used in connection with the Business may be registered in the name of Seller or an Affiliate of Seller and that Seller shall assign such domain name registrations to the Company prior to the Closing; unless the Company may not contractually or lawfully take possession of such domain name registrations, in which case the parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to assign such domain name registrations to either Purchaser or a different Affiliate of Purchaser. If Purchaser, the Company and Purchaser’s other Affiliates cannot lawfully or contractually take possession of certain domain name registrations used in connection with the Business, Purchaser and Seller shall use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate in a mutually agreeable arrangement under which Purchaser or its Affiliates would obtain the benefits and assume the obligations associated with possession of such domain name registrations.

8.6           Procedure for Indemnification — Third Party Claims.

 

(a)          Promptly after receipt by a party indemnified under Section 8.1, 8.2 or 8.3 of notice of the commencement of any Proceeding against it, by a Third Party, any indemnified party will, if a claim is to be made against an indemnifying party under such Section, give written notice to the indemnifying party of the commencement of such claim, but the failure to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying party of any liability that it may have to any indemnified party, except to the extent that the indemnifying party demonstrates that the defense of such action is prejudiced by the indemnified party’s failure to give such notice.

 

(b)          If any Proceeding referred to in Section 8.6(a) is brought against an indemnified party and it gives written notice to the indemnifying party of the commencement of such Proceeding, the indemnifying party may elect to assume the defense of such Proceeding with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party (unless the indemnifying party is also a party to such Proceeding and the indemnified party determines in good faith that joint representation would be inappropriate under applicable standards of legal ethics) and, after written notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of such Proceeding, the indemnifying party shall not, as long as it diligently conducts such defense, be liable to the indemnified party under this Article VIII for any fees of other counsel or any other expenses with respect to the defense of such Proceeding, in each case subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense of such Proceeding. If the indemnifying party assumes the defense of a Proceeding, no compromise or settlement of such claims may be effected by the indemnifying party without the indemnified party’s consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) unless (i) the compromise or settlement does not involve any statement, finding or admission of any fault of, breach of Contract by, or violation of Law by, the indemnified party, and (ii) the sole relief provided is monetary damages that are paid in full by the indemnifying party. If written notice is given to an indemnifying party of the commencement of any Proceeding and the indemnifying party does not, within thirty (30) days after the indemnified party’s notice is given, give written notice to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of such Proceeding, the indemnified party may assume control of the defense of such Proceeding with counsel of its own choosing, at the cost of the indemnifying party, and the indemnifying party will be bound by any determination made in such Proceeding or any compromise or settlement effected by the indemnified party. This Section 8.6 shall not apply to Tax Contests, which shall be governed by Section 6.7(b).

 

-43-

 

 

(c)          Each party shall make available to the other all records and other materials reasonably required to contest any claim and shall cooperate fully with the other in the defense of all such claims. Information disclosed by one party to the other shall be kept confidential.

 

8.7           Adjustment to Purchase Price. The parties agree that any indemnification payment made pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for Tax purposes, unless a Final Determination with respect to the indemnitee or any of its Affiliates causes any such payment not to be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for federal income Tax purposes. For the purposes of this Agreement, “Final Determination” shall mean (a) with respect to federal income Taxes, a “determination” as defined in Section 1313(a) of the Code or execution of an IRS Form 870-AD and, (b) with respect to Taxes other than federal income Taxes, any final determination of liability in respect of a Tax that, under applicable Law, is not subject to further appeal, review or modification through a Proceeding or otherwise (including the expiration of a statute of limitations or a period for the filing of claims for refunds, amended Tax Returns or appeals from adverse determinations).

 

8.8           Damages. For purposes of determining the amount only of any Damages in connection with this Article VIII, all representations and warranties made by Seller or Purchaser that are qualified by “material,” “Material Adverse Change” or “Material Adverse Effect” shall be deemed to be not so qualified.

 

Article IX

9.2           Effect of Termination. In the event of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1 by Purchaser, on the one hand, or Seller, on the other hand, written notice thereof shall forthwith be given to the other party specifying the provision hereof pursuant to which such termination is made, and this Agreement shall be terminated and become void and have no effect and there shall be no Liability hereunder on the part of Seller or Purchaser, except that this Article IX (Termination) and Article X (Miscellaneous) shall survive any termination of this Agreement. Nothing in this Section 9.2 shall relieve or release any party to this Agreement of any Liability or damages (which the parties hereto acknowledge and agree shall not be limited to reimbursement of expenses or out-of-pocket costs, and may include to the extent proven the benefit of the bargain lost (taking into consideration relevant matters, including other combination opportunities and the time value of money) arising out of such party’s material breach of any provision of this Agreement).

Section 9.3, Section 10.5(a), Section 10.5(b), Section 10.8, Section 10.11 and this Section 10.6 shall not be amended or otherwise modified in any way that adversely affects the rights of any Debt Financing Source without the prior written consent of the Debt Financing Source.

 

10.7         Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, and all of which together shall be deemed to be one and the same instrument. Signed counterparts of this Agreement may be delivered by facsimile and by scanned .pdf image.

 

10.8         Applicable Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE LEGAL RELATIONS BETWEEN THE PARTIES HERETO SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO THE CONFLICT OF LAWS RULES THEREOF. THE STATE OR FEDERAL COURTS LOCATED WITHIN NEW YORK COUNTY IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK SHALL HAVE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OVER ANY AND ALL DISPUTES BETWEEN THE PARTIES HERETO, WHETHER IN LAW OR EQUITY, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE AGREEMENTS, INSTRUMENTS AND DOCUMENTS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY AND THE PARTIES CONSENT TO AND AGREE TO SUBMIT TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS.

If any term, provision, agreement, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, agreements, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated so long as the economic and legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby are not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party hereto. Upon such a determination, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties hereto as closely as possible in a reasonably acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby may be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

 

10.10       Specific Enforcement; Limitation on Damages. The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur if any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached or threatened to be breached and that an award of money damages would be inadequate in such event. Accordingly, it is acknowledged that the parties and the third-party beneficiaries of this Agreement shall be entitled to equitable relief, without proof of actual damages, including an Order for specific performance to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement (including any Order sought by the Company and/or Seller to cause Purchaser to perform its agreements and covenants contained in this Agreement), in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity as a remedy for any such breach or threatened breach. Each party further agrees that neither the other party nor any other Person shall be required to obtain, furnish or post any bond or similar instrument in connection with or as a condition to obtaining any remedy referred to in this Section 10.10, and each party hereto irrevocably waives any right it may have to require the obtaining, furnishing or posting of any such bond or similar instrument. Each party further agrees that the only permitted objection that it may raise in response to any action for equitable relief is that it contests the existence of a breach or threatened breach of this Agreement.

 

10.11       Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, AND SHALL CAUSE ITS SUBSIDIARIES AND AFFILIATES TO WAIVE, ALL RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

 

10.12       Release. Effective as of the Closing Date, Purchaser, on behalf of itself and its equityholders, Subsidiaries, Affiliates, Representatives, direct and indirect parent companies, managers, officers and directors, and each of their respective successors and assigns (each a “Releasor”), hereby releases, acquits and forever discharges, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, Seller and its past, present and future equityholders, Subsidiaries, Affiliates, Representatives, direct and indirect parent companies, managers, officers and directors (each, a “Releasee”) of, from and against any and all actions, causes of action, claims, demands, damages, judgments, Liabilities, debts, dues and suits of every kind, nature and description whatsoever, arising out of Seller’s ownership of the Interests and operation of the Business, which such Releasor ever had, now has or may have on or by reason of any matter, cause or thing whatsoever on or prior to the Closing Date. Each Releasor agrees not to, and agrees to cause its respective equityholders, Subsidiaries, Affiliates and Representatives, and each of their respective successors and assigns, not to, assert any claim against the Releasees. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser does not release its rights and interests under this Agreement or the Confidentiality Agreement.

This document constitutes the Seller Disclosure Letter (the “Seller Disclosures”) referenced in the Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”), dated May 9, 2017, by and among IBG Borrower LLC, a limited liability company organized under the Laws of Delaware (“Seller”), and solely for purposes of Section 3.4 of the Agreement, Iconix Brand Group, Inc. a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Delaware, on the one hand, and DHX SSP Holdings LLC, a limited liability company organized under the Laws of Delaware (“Purchaser”), and solely for the purposes of Section 3.3 of the Agreement, DHX Media Ltd. a corporation organized under the Laws of Canada (“DHX”), on the other hand. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the respective meanings ascribed to such terms in the Agreement.

 

Matters reflected in the Seller Disclosures are not necessarily limited to matters required by the Agreement to be reflected in the Seller Disclosures. The Seller may, at its option, include in the Seller Disclosures items that are not material in order to avoid any misunderstanding, and such inclusion shall not be deemed to be an acknowledgment or representation that such items are material, to establish any standard of materiality or to define further the meaning of such terms for purposes of the Agreement, the Seller Disclosures or otherwise. To the extent any such additional matters are included, they are included for informational purposes and do not necessarily include other matters of a similar nature. In no event shall any disclosure of additional matters be deemed or interpreted to broaden or otherwise amend any of the covenants or representations or warranties in the Agreement. The disclosure of any matter or item in the Seller Disclosures shall not be deemed to constitute an acknowledgment that such matter or item is material to a representation or warranty set forth in the Agreement and shall not be used as a basis for interpreting the terms “material,” “materially” or “materiality” or any word or phrase of similar import, and does not mean that such matter or item would, alone or together with any other matter or item, reasonably be expected to be material. Headings and subheadings have been inserted in the Seller Disclosures for convenience of reference only and shall to no extent have the effect of amending or changing the express description thereof as set forth in the Agreement, or modifying any of the representations and warranties contained in the Agreement or any of the qualifications or exceptions set forth in the Agreement relating to such representations and warranties, including, without limitation, any qualifications based on knowledge.

AND

 

DHX SSP HOLDINGS LLC

 

DATED MAY 9, 2017

 

 

 

 

 

This document constitutes the Purchaser Disclosure Letter (the “Purchaser Disclosures”) referenced in the Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”), dated May 9, 2017, by and among IBG Borrower LLC, a limited liability company organized under the Laws of Delaware (“Seller”), and, solely for purposes of Section 3.4 of the Agreement, Iconix Brand Group, Inc. a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Delaware, on the one hand, and, solely for purposes of Section 3.3 of the Agreement, DHX Media Ltd., a corporation organized under the Laws of Canada, and DHX SSP Holdings LLC, a limited liability company organized under the Laws of Delaware (“Purchaser”), on the other hand. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the respective meanings ascribed to such terms in the Agreement.

 

Matters reflected in the Purchaser Disclosures are not necessarily limited to matters required by the Agreement to be reflected in the Purchaser Disclosures. Purchaser may, at its option, include in the Purchaser Disclosures items that are not material in order to avoid any misunderstanding, and such inclusion shall not be deemed to be an acknowledgment or representation that such items are material, to establish any standard of materiality or to define further the meaning of such terms for purposes of the Agreement, the Purchaser Disclosures or otherwise. To the extent any such additional matters are included, they are included for informational purposes and do not necessarily include other matters of a similar nature. In no event shall any disclosure of additional matters be deemed or interpreted to broaden or otherwise amend any of the covenants or representations or warranties in the Agreement. The disclosure of any matter or item in the Purchaser Disclosures shall not be deemed to constitute an acknowledgment that such matter or item is material to a representation or warranty set forth in the Agreement and shall not be used as a basis for interpreting the terms “material,” “materially” or “materiality” or any word or phrase of similar import, and does not mean that such matter or item would, alone or together with any other matter or item, reasonably be expected to be material. Headings and subheadings have been inserted in the Purchaser Disclosures for convenience of reference only and shall to no extent have the effect of amending or changing the express description thereof as set forth in the Agreement, or modifying any of the representations and warranties contained in the Agreement or any of the qualifications or exceptions set forth in the Agreement relating to such representations and warranties, including, without limitation, any qualifications based on knowledge. All references to “Sections” in the Purchaser Disclosures shall be deemed to refer to the provisions of the Agreement, unless the context requires otherwise. Disclosure of any fact or item in any Schedule referenced by a particular Section in the Agreement shall be deemed to have been disclosed with respect to every other Section in the Agreement to the extent that it is reasonably apparent from the face of such disclosure that such disclosure would apply to such other Sections.

 

The specification of any dollar amount or the inclusion of any item in the Purchaser Disclosures is not intended to imply that the amounts, or higher or lower amounts, or the items so included, or other items, are or are not required to be disclosed (including whether such amounts or items are required to be disclosed as material or threatened) or are within or outside of the ordinary course of business, and no party to the Agreement shall use the fact of the setting of the amounts or the fact of the inclusion of any item in the Purchaser Disclosures in any dispute or controversy between the parties as to whether any obligation, item or matter not described or included in the Purchaser Disclosures is or is not required to be disclosed (including whether the amount or items are required to be disclosed as material or threatened) or is within or outside of the ordinary course of business for purposes of the Purchaser Disclosures and the Agreement.

The information contained in the Purchaser Disclosures is disclosed solely for purposes of the Agreement, and no information contained herein or therein shall be deemed to be an admission by any party to the Agreement to any third party of any matter whatsoever (including any violation of any Law or Order or breach of contract). The parties to the Agreement do not assume any responsibility to any Person that is not a party to the Agreement for the accuracy of any information set forth in the Purchaser Disclosures. The information set forth in the Purchaser Disclosures was not prepared or disclosed with a view to its potential disclosure to others. Subject to applicable Law, such information is disclosed in confidence for the purposes contemplated in the Agreement and is subject to the confidentiality provisions of the Confidentiality Agreement. Moreover, in disclosing the information in the Purchaser Disclosures, each party to the Agreement expressly does not waive any attorney-client privilege associated with such information or any protection afforded by the work-product doctrine with respect to any of the matters disclosed or discussed herein.
