Confidential Information shall not include (a) information which is or becomes generally known to the public through no act or omission of the Sellers, (b) information that was or is independently developed by one or both Sellers not in the course of their employment with (or service as a director or owner of) the Company or any successor entity and without any use of the Confidential Information of the Company, as demonstrated by files created by such Seller in the ordinary course of

Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Seller is permitted to disclose Confidential Information to (A) its advisors, but only to the extent reasonably necessary in order for such party to perform its obligations and exercise its rights and remedies under this Agreement, and (B) customers, suppliers, potential customers, suppliers and other Persons in the ordinary course of operating the Business, consistent with past practices, provided, that, in each case, and such party will take all such action as is necessary and customary in order to ensure that each of such persons maintains the confidentiality of any confidential information that is so disclosed; and make additional disclosures of or use for its own benefit Confidential Information, but only if and to the extent that such disclosures or use are specifically contemplated by this Agreement.

                                                                                                                                                        ARTICLE VI

TAX MATTERS

6.1              Tax Covenants. The following provisions shall govern the allocation of responsibility as between the Purchaser, the Company, and the Sellers for certain tax matters following the Closing Date:

(a)                Post-Closing. The Purchaser shall prepare or cause to be prepared and file or cause to be filed all Tax Returns for the Company and each of its Subsidiaries which are filed after the Closing Date; provided, however, that the Sellers shall have an opportunity to review and comment on such Tax Returns if the Sellers have an indemnification obligation under Section 8.2 with respect to such Tax Returns. For purposes of this Agreement, Pre-Closing Taxes for any Straddle Periods shall be determined assuming that payment has been made in a manner without regard to penalties, interest or other amounts resulting from the failure to pay such Taxes in a timely manner unless such failure is due, all or in part, to the actions or inaction of the Sellers. The Company shall be entitled to reimbursement of all Taxes paid pursuant to this Section 6.1(a) for Pre-Closing Tax Periods. The Purchaser and the Sellers shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other party, in connection with the filing of Tax Returns pursuant to this Article VI and any audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes (any such proceeding, a “Tax Proceeding”). Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the other party’s reasonable request) the provision of records and information which are reasonably relevant to any such audit, actual or threatened litigation or other proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. The Purchaser agrees (A) to retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to the Company relating to any Tax period beginning before the Closing Date until the expiration of the statute of limitations (and, to the extent notified by the Company or either Seller, any extensions thereof) of the respective Tax periods, and to abide by all record retention agreements entered into with any taxing authority, and (B) to give the Sellers reasonable written notice prior to transferring, destroying or discarding any such books and records and, if either Seller so requests, the Company shall allow that Seller to take possession of such books and

 
 

records. The Purchaser shall have the right to control the conduct and resolution of any Tax Proceeding; provided, however, that if a Tax Proceeding is with respect to Taxes attributable to a Pre-Closing Tax Period for which the Sellers may be liable for a material amount under this Agreement, then the Sellers shall have the right to participate in such Tax Proceeding at their own expense and, in such case, the Purchaser shall not settle any such Tax Proceeding without the Sellers’ written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. The Purchaser and the Sellers further agree, upon request, to use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any certificate or other document from any Authority or any other Person as may be necessary to mitigate, reduce or eliminate any Tax that could be imposed (including, but not limited to, with respect to the Contemplated Transactions).

(b)               Closing of the Books.  Unless closing of the books on the Closing Date takes place automatically by operation of Code section 1362(e)(6)(D), Purchaser will cause the Company to elect to close its books as of the date of the transfer pursuant to Code section 1377(a)(2), and Sellers hereby consent to such election.

(c)                Transfer Taxes. All transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other such Taxes, and all conveyance fees, recording charges and other fees and charges (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (together with the cost of preparation and filing any related Tax Returns) shall be paid by the Sellers when due, and the Sellers will, at their own expense, file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to all such Taxes, fees and charges, and, if required by applicable law, the Purchaser and/or the Company will join in the execution of any such Tax Returns and other documentation.

(b)               The Company shall have received all Licenses, consents, authorizations or approvals from, and shall have filed all notices and materials with, any Authority that are listed on Schedule 3.4 in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, in each case in form and

                                                                                                                                                   ARTICLE VIII

SURVIVAL; INDEMNIFICATION

8.1              Survival. All representations, warranties, covenants, and obligations in this Agreement, the Disclosure Schedule and any other certificate or document delivered pursuant to this Agreement will survive the Closing, subject to applicable time limitations set forth in Section 8.3. The right to indemnification, payment of Losses or other remedy based on such representations, warranties, covenants, and obligations will not be affected by any investigation conducted with respect to, or any Knowledge acquired (or capable of being acquired) at any time after the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the Closing Date, with respect to the accuracy or inaccuracy of or compliance with, any such representation, warranty, covenant, or obligation. Unless otherwise agreed to in a separate written agreement, the waiver of any condition based on the accuracy of any representation or warranty, or on the performance of or compliance with any covenant or obligation, will not affect the right to indemnification, payment of Losses, or other remedy based on such representations, warranties, covenants, and obligations, provided that if a party proceeds to consummate the Closing notwithstanding the failure of a condition precedent to that party’s obligation to close, then such party’s recourse shall be limited to a claim for a breach of a representation and warranty rather than a claim based on the failure of the covenant or condition.

8.2              Indemnification and Payment of Losses by the Sellers. Subject to applicable limitations in time and amount set forth in Sections 8.4 and 8.5, the Sellers, after the Closing, will indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser, its successors and assigns in interest, and each of their respective officers, directors, partners, stockholders, employees, agents, advisors, controlling persons, and affiliates (collectively, the “Purchaser Indemnitees”) for, and will pay to the Purchaser Indemnitees the amount of, any Losses, arising, directly or indirectly, from or in connection with:

(i)             any breach of any representation or warranty contained in ARTICLE II or ARTICLE III of this Agreement or any representation or warranty of the Company or the Sellers contained in any other document or any other certificate delivered by either Seller (on behalf of the Company or in his or capacity as an officer or stockholder of the Company), or the Company pursuant to this Agreement

 
 

with respect to such representations or warranties, disregarding (solely for purposes of determining the Losses but not for determining whether or not any such breach has occurred) all qualifications and exceptions contained therein including the phrase “in all material respects” or any equivalent phrase;

(ii)           any breach by the Company or the Sellers of any covenant or obligation of the Company or the Sellers contained in this Agreement or any other document or certificate delivered by or on behalf of the Company or the Sellers;

(iii)             any claim by any Person for brokerage or finder’s fees or commissions or similar payments based upon any agreement or understanding alleged to have been made by any such Person with the Company (or any Person acting on its behalf) in connection with any of the Contemplated Transactions;

(iv)             any Pre-Closing Taxes; and

(v)               any Indebtedness of the Company existing at Closing.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnification obligation of each Seller to indemnify the Purchaser with respect to any breach of a covenant, representation of warranty of the Sellers set forth in ARTICLE II shall extend only to Losses occasioned by a breach by that Seller of his own covenants, representations and warranties.

8.3              Time Limitations. The representations and warranties of the Purchaser, the Company and the Sellers in this Agreement (i) will survive the Closing and (ii) will continue until the date that is eighteen (18) months from the Closing Date (the “Termination Date”), at which time all representations and warranties will expire; provided, however, (A) the Sellers will continue to have liability pursuant to Section 8.2 with respect to the representations and warranties contained in ARTICLE II, Sections 3.1 (Organization; Authority; Due Authorization), 3.2 (Capitalization of the Company and Subsidiaries) and 3.5 (Sufficiency of and Title to Assets) indefinitely, and (B) the Sellers will continue to have liability pursuant to Section 8.2 with respect to the representations and warranties contained in Sections 3.7 (Taxes), 3.14 (Environmental Matters), 3.15 (Employee Matters) and 3.16 (ERISA/Employee Benefits) until the date that is sixty (60) calendar days after the underlying obligation is barred by the applicable period of limitation under federal and state Laws relating thereto (claims for indemnification pursuant to Section 8.2(i) with respect to the matters set forth in clauses (A) and (B), (collectively, the “Extended Representations and Warranties”).

8.4              Limitations on Amount – Company and Sellers. The Sellers will have no liability (for indemnification or otherwise) with respect to the matters described in Section 8.2(i) unless and until the total of all Losses incurred by the Purchaser Indemnitees under such Section exceeds an aggregate amount of Fifteen Thousand Dollars ($15,000) (the “Threshold”). After the total of all Losses incurred by the Purchaser Indemnitees with respect to matters described in Section 8.2(i) exceeds the Threshold, the Purchaser Indemnitees will be entitled to indemnification of all Losses (including those below the Threshold) with respect to the matters described in Section 8.2(i) up to a maximum (in the aggregate) of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) (the “Cap”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Threshold and the Cap shall not apply to claims based on (a) fraud or intentional misrepresentation by the Company or any Seller in this Agreement; or (b) any Extended Representations and Warranties.

8.5              Setoff. To the extent either Seller has an indemnification obligation to Purchaser pursuant to this ARTICLE VIII, Purchaser may set off, at its option, any Losses hereunder against amounts then due and owing under the Note to such Seller or both of the Notes.

 
 

8.6              Procedure for Indemnification – Third Party Claims.

(a)                Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this ARTICLE VIII of notice of the commencement of any proceeding against it by a third party, such indemnified party will, if a claim is to be made against an indemnifying party under this ARTICLE VIII, give 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 notice to the indemnifying party of the commencement of such proceeding, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in such proceeding and, to the extent that it wishes (unless the indemnifying party fails to provide reasonable assurance to the indemnified party of its financial capacity to defend such proceeding and provide indemnification with respect to such proceeding), to assume the defense of such proceeding with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party and, after notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of such proceeding, the indemnifying party will 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, other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided, however, that if there exists a conflict of interest that would make it inappropriate in the written legal opinion of counsel for the indemnified party for the same counsel to represent both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party, then the indemnified party shall be entitled to retain its own counsel in each jurisdiction for which the indemnified party determines counsel is required, at the expense of the indemnifying party. If the indemnifying party assumes the defense of a proceeding, (i) 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 or delayed, unless (A) there is no finding or admission of any violation of Law or any violation of the rights of any Person and no effect on any other claims that may be made against the indemnified party, and (B) the sole relief provided is monetary damages that are paid in full by the indemnifying party; and (C) such compromise or settlement shall include an unconditional release of the indemnified party from all liabilities arising out of such claim. If notice is given to an indemnifying party of the commencement of any proceeding and the indemnifying party does not, within twenty (20) days after the indemnified party’s notice is given, give notice to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of such proceeding, the indemnifying party will be bound by any determination made in such proceeding so defended or any compromise or settlement effected, provided that no compromise or settlement of such claims may be effected by the indemnified party without the indemnifying party’s consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, unless such compromise or settlement shall include an unconditional release of the indemnifying party from all liabilities arising out of such claim. The indemnifying party and indemnified party will cooperate with each other in the defense of any third party claim subject to indemnification hereunder.

(c)                Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an indemnified party determines in good faith that there is a reasonable probability that a proceeding may materially and adversely affect it or its Affiliates, other than as a result of monetary damages for which it would be entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, the indemnified party may, by notice to the indemnifying party, assume the exclusive right to defend, compromise, or settle such proceeding, but the indemnifying party will not be bound by any determination of a proceeding so defended or any compromise or settlement effected without its consent which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, unless such compromise or settlement shall include an unconditional release of the indemnifying party from all liabilities, monetary or otherwise, arising out of such claim.

 
 

8.7              Procedure for Indemnification – Other Claims. A claim for indemnification for any matter not involving a third-party claim must be asserted by written notice delivered in accordance with Section 8.6(a) to the party from whom indemnification is sought which notice shall specify in reasonable detail the factual basis for such claim and either the fixed amount of Losses resulting from such claim, or if the Losses have not been finally determined, a good faith estimate of the amount of such Losses along with a statement of the basis for such estimate.

8.8              Claims Against the Company. Each Seller (a) expressly waives any rights of indemnification of such Seller against the Company for acts, circumstances, and events that give rise to indemnification obligations of such Seller arising under this ARTICLE VIII, and (b) agrees and acknowledges that he will have no right of contribution from, or right of subrogation against, the Company in the event he is required to take, or refrain from taking, any action, whether by the payment of money or otherwise, as a result of this ARTICLE VIII.

                                                                                                                                                        ARTICLE IX

9.5              Miscellaneous.

9.7              Amendments; No Waivers. Any provision of this Agreement (including the Disclosure Schedules) may be amended if, and only if, such amendment is in writing and signed by the Purchaser and the Seller. Any provision of this Agreement may be waived if the waiver is in writing and signed by the party to be bound. No failure or delay by either party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other of further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.
