If the Indemnifying Party shall not assume the defense of any such Claim, the Indemnified Party may defend against any such Claim in such manner as it may deem appropriate and the Indemnified Party may settle such Claim on such terms as it may deem appropriate; provided, however, that any such settlement shall be subject to the prior consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Within 10 days after final determination with respect to a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall pay to the Indemnified Party the amount of Damages incurred by the Indemnified Party in respect of which indemnity may be sought. In the case of a non-Third Party Claim and subject to Section 4.4.5, payment of Damages incurred by the Indemnified Party shall be made by the Indemnifying Party within 10 days after receipt of the Indemnification Notice by the Indemnifying Party. 4.4.4 As long as the Promissory Note is outstanding all payments for Damages shall first be satisfied by an offset against the outstanding principal balance of the Promissory Note. 4.4.5 A final determination of a disputed Claim as to Damages shall be (i) a judgment of any court determining the validity of a disputed Claim, if no appeal is pending from such judgment or if the time to appeal therefrom has elapsed, (ii) award of any arbitration determining the validity of such disputed Claim, if there is not pending any motion to set aside such award or if the time within which to move to set such award aside has elapsed, (iii) a written agreement as to the termination of the dispute with respect to such Claim signed by all of the parties thereto or their attorneys, (iv) a written acknowledgement of the Indemnifying Party that he or it no longer disputes the validity of such Claim, or (v) such other evidence of final determination of a disputed Claim as shall be acceptable to the parties. 4.5 TAXES AND EXPENSES. 4.5.1 Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, Seller shall be responsible for and shall pay all costs, liabilities and other obligations incurred by Seller in connection with the performance of and compliance with all transactions, agreements and conditions contained in this Agreement to be performed or complied with by Seller, including legal and accounting fees. 4.5.2 Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, Buyer will assume and pay all costs, liabilities and other obligations incurred by Buyer in connection with the performance of and compliance with all transactions, agreements and conditions contained in this Agreement to be performed or complied with by Buyer, including legal and accounting fees. 18 4.5.3 Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 1.3, Buyer shall pay or reimburse Seller for all federal, state or local sales, documentary, transfer or similar taxes, if any, due as a result of the purchase, sale, use or transfer of the Assets in accordance herewith, and Buyer shall indemnify, reimburse and hold harmless Seller in respect of the liability for payment of or failure to pay any such sales, documentary, transfer or similar taxes or the filing of or failure to file any reports required in connection therewith. 4.6 NON-COMPETITION. 4.6.1 Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Section, Seller covenants and agrees that, as a material consideration running to Buyer for Buyer's payments hereunder, for a period of five (5) years from and after the Closing Date, Seller will not engage in nor carry on, directly or indirectly, either for itself or as a member of a partnership or as a shareholder, investor, agent, associate or consultant of any person, partnership or corporation ((i) other than Buyer or a subsidiary or affiliate of Buyer or (ii) as a holder of fewer than 5% of the outstanding shares or other equity interest of a company whose shares or other equity interest are registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934), any business in competition with the Business, but only for as long as the Business is carried on by Buyer or any subsidiary or affiliate of Buyer. The Parties intend that the covenants contained in this Section shall be deemed to be a series of separate covenants, one for each county in each state of the United States and for each country and political subdivision of the world and, except for geographic coverage, each such separate covenant shall be identical in terms to the covenant contained in this Section. Seller further covenants and agrees that for a period of three (3) years from and after the Closing Date Seller will not recruit, hire, assist others in recruiting or hiring, discuss employment with, or refer to others concerning employment, any person who is, or within the twelve-month period immediately prior to the Closing Date was, an employee of Seller in the Business unless such person shall have been terminated without cause or cease to have been employed by Buyer for a period of 12 months. 4.6.2 The term of the covenants contained in Section 4.6.1 shall be tolled for the period commencing on the date any successful action is filed for injunctive relief or damages arising out of a breach by Seller of Section 4.6.1 and ending upon final adjudication (including appeals) of such action. 4.6.3 If, in any judicial proceeding, the court shall refuse to enforce all of the separate covenants contained in Section 4.6.1 because the time limit is too long, it is expressly understood and agreed between the Parties hereto that for purposes of such proceeding such time limitation shall be deemed reduced to the extent necessary to permit enforcement of such covenants. If, in any judicial proceeding, the court shall refuse to enforce all of the separate covenants contained in Section 4.6.1 because it is more extensive (whether as to geographic area, scope of business or otherwise) than necessary to protect the business and goodwill of Buyer, it is expressly understood and agreed between the Parties hereto that for purposes of such proceeding the geographic area, scope of business or other aspect shall be deemed reduced to the extent necessary to permit enforcement of such covenants. 19 4.6.4 Seller acknowledges that a breach of Section 4.6.1 would cause irreparable damage to Buyer, and in the event of Seller's actual or threatened breach of the provisions of Section 4.6.1, Buyer shall be entitled to a temporary restraining order and an injunction restraining Seller from breaching such covenants without the necessity of posting bond or proving irreparable harm, such being conclusively admitted by Seller. Nothing shall be construed as prohibiting Buyer from pursuing any other available remedies for such breach or threatened breach, including the recovery of damages from Seller. Seller acknowledges that the restrictions set forth in this Agreement are reasonable in scope and duration, given the nature of the business of Buyer. 4.6.5 Subject to the provisions of Section 4.3, Seller acknowledges and agrees that Buyer may use the name of Seller (Golden Pharma- ceuticals, Inc.) to the extent permitted by law and for no longer than six (6) months after the Closing, to the extent such name is needed by Buyer for use of Assets which are imprinted with the name or logo of Seller, solely for inventory, package inserts, labeling, etc. Notwithstanding the above, Buyer covenants and agrees to use its best efforts to obtain approval to sell Iodine I-123 capsules under Buyer's name and logo as soon as practicable after the Closing. 4.7 CONDUCT OF THE BUSINESS. 4.7.1 AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS.
