7.1.1

7.1.2

by Seller or Purchaser at any time after November 30, 2013 (“Termination Date”), provided that, if the Closing has not occurred by the Termination Date because a party is in material breach of this Agreement and has failed to cure such material breach prior to Closing, then the party responsible for such breach may not avail itself of the right under this Section, and provided further that in any such event, the non-breaching party shall not be deprived of any remedy under this Agreement or at law against the breaching party;

ARTICLE VIII. POST CLOSING CLAIMS

8.1

Survival of Representations, Warranties and Covenants. All representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of Seller made in this Agreement, or in any schedule to this Agreement, and the liabilities of Seller for the breach or inaccuracy of any such representation, warranty or promise shall survive the Closing for a period of one year from the Closing Date.

8.2

Indemnification.

8.2.1

Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser from and against losses, damages, liabilities and claims (“Losses”) arising out of, based upon or resulting from: (i) any inaccuracy of any representation or warranty of Seller which is contained in this Agreement; (ii) the transfer of undertaking laws in Germany; or (iii) any breach or non-fulfillment by Seller of any covenants, agreements or other obligations contained in this Agreement; provided that Purchaser provides Written Notice to Seller in compliance with Section 9.6. “Losses” under this Section 8.2 shall include all reasonable fees, costs and expenses of any kind related to Losses, including without limitation, attorney’s fees, except costs and expenses related to Purchaser’s employees’ time and Purchaser’s overhead shall be excluded. Subject to Section 8.3, Purchaser shall have the right to hold back payments from the Holdback and the Earn-Out Payments equal to a reasonable and good faith estimate of Losses arising from such claim pending resolution of such claim. If a claim is resolved following the Holdback Period or the date any Earn-Out Payments are due and Losses with respect to such claim are less than the amount withheld by Purchaser, Purchaser shall promptly release any amount due to Seller with the amount remaining following the Holdback Period or the date any Earn-Out Payments are due to be used solely as recourse for the particular claim pending, or otherwise released to Seller. In the event that no claims for Losses have been made against the Holdback or Earn-Out Payments on the date such payments are due, the entire payment shall promptly be distributed to Seller, as applicable.

Asset Purchase Agreement Page 11

8.2.2

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, Purchaser shall not make a claim for Losses until the aggregate dollar amount of all Losses that would otherwise be indemnifiable pursuant to Section 8.2.1 exceeds $30,000 (the “Basket Amount”), in which case Purchaser may make claims for indemnification for all Losses, including the Basket Amount.

8.3

Notice of Claims; Resolution of Claims.

8.3.1

Purchaser shall give Seller timely written notice (the “Written Notice”) pursuant to Section 9.6 of this Agreement, as it becomes aware of any Losses it seeks to have satisfied out of the Holdback or the Earn-Out Payments. Written Notice shall (i) include the amount of such Losses (which, in the case of Losses not yet incurred or paid may be the maximum amount reasonably likely to be incurred or paid) and (ii) specify in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances related to the breach and the individual items of such Losses arising out of, resulting from or in connection with such breach.

8.3.2

For claims under this Article V, the “Claim Date” is the date written notice is provided to Seller under Section 9.6. Seller shall have fifteen calendar days after the Claim Date within which to provide Purchaser with detailed written notice objecting to any Losses claimed by Purchaser (the “Objection Period”). In the event Seller does not provide such detailed written notice to Purchaser before the end of the Objection Period, Purchaser may reduce the Holdback or the Earn-Out Payments by an amount equal in value to the accumulated dollar amount of Losses in accordance with this Agreement. The remainder of the Holdback or the Earn-Out Payments shall be retained for Seller’s benefit until the date such payment is due, and released to Seller thereon.

In the event Purchaser receives a detailed written notice before the end of the Objection Period from Seller objecting to any Losses:

(a)

Purchaser shall be entitled to retain the portion of the Holdback or Earn-Out Payments equal in value to the accumulated dollar amount of Losses objected to by Seller (the “Disputed Loss Amount”) until such dispute is resolved, and shall release to Seller the portion of the Holdback or Earn-Out Payments (as applicable) equal in value to the accumulated dollar amount of Losses not being objected to.

(b)

Purchaser and Seller shall work together in good faith to resolve any dispute related to the Disputed Loss Amount.

(c)

If a determination as to the distribution of the Disputed Loss Amount cannot be made by mutual agreement between Purchaser and Seller within 90 calendar days after the Claim Date, then either party may submit the matter to a court of competent jurisdiction for resolution.

(d)

Purchaser shall distribute or retain the Disputed Loss Amount (i) in accordance with the mutual agreement of Purchaser and Seller or (ii) in accordance with a final order from a court of competent jurisdiction to which the matter was submitted. In the event whereby Purchaser has been found to have retained an amount in excess of 25% more than it had the right to retain, Purchaser shall reimburse Seller for reasonable legal expenses incurred in pursuing resolution which shall not exceed US$20,000.

8.4

Matters Involving Third Parties. If any third party notifies either party (the “Indemnified Party”) with respect to any matter (a “Third Party Claim”) which may give rise to a claim for indemnification against the other party (the “Indemnifying Party”) under this Article VIII, then the Indemnified Party shall promptly (and in any event within five business days after receiving notice of the Third Party Claim) notify the Indemnifying Party thereof in writing. The Indemnifying Party will have the right at any time to assume and thereafter conduct the defense of the Third Party Claim with counsel of its choice. Unless and until the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of the Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party may defend against the Third Party claim in any manner it may reasonably deem appropriate. In no event will the Indemnified Party consent to the entry of any judgment on or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party.
