The representations and warranties in this Agreement shall survive for the periods set forth in this Section 6 and shall in no event be affected by any investigation, inquiry or examination made for or on behalf of any party, or the knowledge of any party's officers, directors, stockholders, employees or agents or the acceptance by any party of any certificate or opinion hereunder; and (c) The Company and the Investor agree that (i) their sole respective rights for any recourse of any kind with respect to any breaches of any representations, warranties or covenants under this Agreement shall be the Investor's and the Company's respective rights to indemnification as expressly set forth in this Section 6. 6.2 General Indemnification. (a) The Company shall indemnify the Investor and its, stockholders, partners, officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives, successors and permitted assigns (collectively, the "Investor Parties"), and save and hold each of them harmless against and pay on behalf of or reimburse the Investor Parties as and when incurred for any loss, liability, demand, claim, action, cause of action, cost, damage, deficiency, tax, penalty, fine or expense, whether or not arising out of third party claims (including interest, penalties, reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses and all amounts paid in investigation, defense or settlement of any of the foregoing) (collectively, "Losses"), which any the Investor Party may suffer, sustain or become subject to, as a result of, in connection with, relating or incidental to or by virtue of: (i) any material breach of any representation or warranty of the Company in this Agreement; or (ii) any material nonfulfillment or material breach of any covenant or agreement by the Company under this Agreement or the Investor's Rights Agreement. (b) The Investor shall indemnify the Company and its affiliates, stockholders, officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives, successors and permitted assigns (collectively, the "Company Parties"), and save and hold each of them harmless against and pay on behalf of or reimburse such Company Parties as and when incurred for any Losses which any such Company Party may suffer, sustain or become subject to, as a result of, in connection with, relating or incidental to or by virtue of: (a) any material breach of any representation or warranty of the Investor in this Agreement; or (b) any material nonfulfillment or material breach of any covenant or agreement by the Investor under this Agreement or the Investor's Rights Agreement. 6.3 Procedure For Indemnification--Indemnified Party Claims. (a) If an indemnified party (the "Indemnified Party") becomes aware of facts or circumstances establishing a claim ("Claim") that the Indemnified Party has experienced or incurred any Loss or may experience or incur any Losses which will give rise to indemnification under this Section 6, then the Indemnified Party shall give written notice to the indemnifying party (the "Indemnifying Party") of such Claim ("Indemnification Notice"). The Indemnification Notice shall be provided as soon as reasonably practicable but in no event more than thirty (30) days after the Indemnified Party has received written notice or actual knowledge of such facts or circumstances (provided that failure to give an Indemnification Notice shall not limit the Indemnifying Party's indemnification obligation hereunder except to the extent that the delay in giving, or failure to give, the Indemnification Notice adversely affects the Indemnifying Party's ability to defend against a Claim). To the extent reasonably practicable, the Indemnification Notice will describe the nature, basis and amount of the Claim and include any relevant supporting documentation. Any Claim described in the Indemnification Notice shall be deemed final and binding (hereinafter, a "Permitted Indemnification Claim") if the Indemnifying Party does not object in writing to the propriety of the Claim or the amount of the Loss by delivering a notice of objection to the Indemnified Party (an "Indemnification Objection Notice") within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Indemnification Notice. The Indemnification Objection Notice shall detail all specific objections to the Claim. (b) The Indemnified Party against whom a third party claim ("Third Party Claim") is made or brought shall give the Indemnifying Party an opportunity to defend such Third Party Claim with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party and reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. Notwithstanding the above, the Indemnified Party at all times shall have the right to participate fully in the defense at its own expense. Failure of an Indemnifying Party to give the Indemnified Party written notice of its election to defend such Third Party Claim within thirty (30) days after receipt of notice shall be deemed a waiver of its right to defend such Third Party Claim. In that event, the Indemnified Party against whom such Third Party Claim is made shall have the right, but not the obligation, to undertake, defend and compromise or settle the Third Party Claim. The party that undertakes the defense shall defend the Third Parry Claim in good faith and shall periodically apprise the other party of the progress of such defense. If the Indemnifying Party undertakes the defense of a Third Party Claim, it shall not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement (except with the written consent of the Indemnified Party) which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant to the Indemnified Party against whom such Third Party Claim is made a release from all liability in respect of such Third Party Claim (which release shall exclude only any obligations incurred in connection with any such settlement). The Indemnified Party shall make available, at the Indemnifying Party's expense, all information and assistance that the Indemnifying Party reasonably may request. 6.4 CPS Acquisition. The proceeds received by the Company from the sale of the Stock shall be used to (i) acquire the stock and/or assets of Orange County Professional Services, Inc., a California corporation, and its affiliated entities (collectively, the "CPS Acquisition") and (ii) to pay certain expenses incurred by the Company and the Investor in the negotiation and preparation of documents with respect to the CPS Acquisition. 6.5 Exclusivity; No Issuance of Equity Securities. The Company agrees that until the closing of the CPS Acquisition, the Company will not, and will not permit any of its officers, directors, employees or representatives to, without the prior written consent of the Investor and the Board of Directors of the Company: (a) solicit, enter into any negotiations with or respond to any proposals from other third parties indicating an interest in making an investment in the Company; or (b) issue or grant any shares, options, warrants, convertible notes or other equity securities ("Equity Securities") of the Company (except for the issuance of shares upon the exercise of options granted under the Plan prior to the Closing Date in accordance with the terms thereof) or enter into any contract, commitment or agreement for the issuance by the Company, or purchase or acquisition by the Company from any individual or entity of any Equity Securities; (c) create a mortgage, pledge, lien or encumbrance on any of the properties or assets of the Company; (d) make any expenditures in excess of $10,000 (individually or in the aggregate), except in the ordinary course of business; or (e) incur any indebtedness for money borrowed by the Company or obligations assumed or guaranteed by the Company. 6.6 Advance for Payment of Certain Legal Fees; Monitoring Fee. Subsequent to the Closing Date and for so long as the Investor holds any Stock, the Company shall pay to the Investor a quarterly monitoring fee of $15,000, payable on July 1, 2000 and on the first day of each quarter thereafter. The first monitoring fee will be pro rated from the Closing Date. Initial monitoring fees in an aggregate amount of $17,442.49 will be offset against amounts owed by the Investor to the Company for amounts borrowed to by the Investor at the Closing to pay certain transaction expenses. 6.7 Name Change.
