2.2.1 On the Closing Date (as defined herein), One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) via wire transfer to an account specified by the Members prior to Closing;

(i) On such date that is six (6) months from the Closing Date, Buyer shall determine the volume weighted average price (“VWAP”) of Buyer’s common stock for the preceding twenty (20) trading days (the “Six Month VWAP”).  In the event that the Six Month VWAP is less than Two Dollars Fifty Cents ($2.50) per share, Buyer shall issue a number of restricted common shares in addition to the Shares issued pursuant to Section 2.2.3 above, as determined by the following formula:

                            Upon receipt by Buyer of the Earn Out Determination Dispute Notice, if any, the Parties agree to submit any disagreement with respect to the Earn Out in writing to a panel of two appointees, one appointed by Buyer and one appointed by Members, who shall promptly meet and confer in good faith in an effort to expeditiously resolve such dispute.  To the extent such appointees are unable to resolve any disagreement with respect to the Earn Out within thirty (30) days after receipt by Buyer of the Earn Out Determination Dispute Notice, Buyer and Members’ Agent shall submit their dispute to a mutually acceptable nationally recognized public accounting firm with no material relationship to any Party as promptly as practicable.  In the event that Buyer and Members’ Agent cannot mutually agree on an accounting firm, each of Buyer and Members’ Agent shall designate one such accounting firm, and the two accounting firms so designated shall mutually agree upon and appoint a third nationally recognized public accounting firm with no material relationship to any Party to review and resolve such dispute.  

 

 

(b) Buyer shall have no obligation to pay the Earn Out in the event that Buyer terminates Hefter for Cause during the Earn Out Period. “Cause” shall have the meaning as defined in that certain Employment Agreement by and between Buyer and Hefter (the “Employment Agreement”) substantially in the form as set forth on Exhibit 4.

s.  Subsequent to the Closing Date, except as set forth in Section 5.2, each Member shall, severally and proportionally to such Member’s Percentage Interest (as set forth on Schedule A), indemnify and hold Buyer, its Affiliates, successors and assigns and persons serving as current and future officers, directors, partners, managers, stockholders, employees, attorneys and agents thereof (individually a “Buyer Indemnified Party” and collectively the “Buyer Indemnified Parties”) harmless from and against any and all Damages that may be sustained or suffered by any of them arising out of or based upon any fraud, intentional misrepresentation or the cause or knowledge of a deliberate or willful breach of any representations, warranties or covenants of the Members under this Agreement or in any agreement, document, certificate, schedule or exhibit delivered pursuant hereto, or any other breach of any representation, warranty or covenant of the Members under this Agreement or in any agreement, document, certificate, schedule or exhibit delivered pursuant hereto, or by reason of any Action asserted or instituted growing out of any matter or thing constituting a breach of such representations, warranties or covenants.

 

8.2        Indemnification by Buyer

 

8.3 .          Buyer shall indemnify and hold the Members and their attorneys and agents thereof (individually a “Member Indemnified Party” and collectively the “Member Indemnified Parties”) harmless from and against any Damages which may be sustained or suffered by any of them arising out of or based upon any breach of any representation, warranty or covenant made by Buyer in this Agreement or in any agreement, document, certificate, schedule or exhibit delivered by Buyer hereunder, or by reason of any claim, Action or proceeding asserted or instituted growing out of any matter or thing constituting such a breach.

 

8.3       Indemnification Procedure.

 

8.3.1 The term “Indemnified Party” shall mean the Buyer Indemnified Party or Buyer Indemnified Parties or the Member Indemnified Party or Member Indemnified Parties, as the case may be, and the term “Indemnifying Party” shall mean the indemnifying party referred to herein.

 

 

 

 

8.3.2 The Indemnified Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate any Damages in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder.  The Indemnified Party shall give written notice (the “Indemnification Notice”) to the Indemnifying Party within ninety (90) days after discovery by the Indemnified Party of any matters that may be reasonably expected to give rise to a claim for indemnification or reimbursement under this Agreement, specifying in reasonable detail the nature and estimated amount of the claim; provided, however, that failure to give such notice shall not affect the indemnification obligations of the Indemnifying Party hereunder in the absence of actual prejudice and then shall limit such obligations only to the extent of such prejudice.

 

8.3.3 With respect to any Action, proceeding or claim that is brought by a third party against an Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to select counsel of its choice.

 

8.3.4 The Indemnified Party shall cooperate fully in the defense of any such Action, proceeding or claim.  The Indemnified Party shall keep the Indemnifying Party reasonably informed at all times as to the status of the defense.  Neither the Indemnified Party nor the Indemnifying Party will consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the third party claim without the prior written consent of the other party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.

 

8.4        Limitation of Liability.  Except as set forth in Section 5.2:

 

8.4.1 Basket. No Member shall have any obligation to indemnify Buyer pursuant to Section 8.1 until and unless:

 

(a) the aggregate amount of any Damages suffered by Buyer for which indemnification would otherwise be due from any Member equals or exceeds $25,000; and

 

(b) Buyer sends written notice, signed by a senior executive officer of Buyer, to such Member(s) setting forth the calculation of any such Damages or which indemnification is due, and that such calculation of Damages has been prepared in good faith.

 

8.4.2 Indemnification Cap; Order of Priority.  No Member shall be obligated to indemnify Buyer from and against Damages in an amount that exceeds the pro rata portion of the Purchase Price paid to such Member (the “Cap Amount”). For purposes of indemnification made pursuant to Section 8.1, the Cap Amount shall be payable subject to the following order of priority:

 

(a) An amount equal to the cash consideration received by such Member pursuant to Sections 2.2.1, 2.2.2, and 2.2.4 of this Agreement (the “Cash Indemnification Amount”);

 

(b) To the extent that the Cash Indemnification Amount is insufficient to cover the amount due to Buyer, the Member shall, at Buyer’s option, either:

 

(i) Surrender to Buyer all or a portion of the Shares issued to such Member pursuant to Section 2.2.3 of this Agreement (the “Member Shares”), valued as of the closing trading value of the Member Shares on the Indemnification Trigger Date (as defined below); or

 

(ii) Use his best efforts to sell all or a portion of the Member Shares at the highest possible market rate and remit the proceeds of such sale to Buyer.    

 

 

 

 

 

(c) To the extent that all or a portion of the Cash Indemnification Amount is sufficient to cover the amount due to Buyer under Section 8.1, the Member shall have no obligation to surrender or sell any portion of the Member Shares; moreover, to the extent that the value of the Member Shares surrendered pursuant to Section 8.4.2(b)(i) or sold pursuant to Section 8.4.2(b)(ii) is sufficient to cover the amount due to Buyer, the Member shall have no obligation to surrender or sell any additional portion of the Member Shares.

 

Notwithstanding the forgoing, nothing in this Section 8.4.2 should be construed as creating an obligation to hold in escrow or otherwise segregate any cash or Shares received by the Members pursuant to this Agreement.  The Parties acknowledge and agree that the Members are specifically not obligated to hold in escrow or otherwise segregate any portion of the consideration received pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

 

8.4.3 Indemnification Trigger Date.  No Party shall be obligated to indemnify another Party pursuant to this Section 8 against any Damages unless and until such claim giving rise to such Damages has been fully adjudicated and all appeals available thereunder have been fully exhausted, or settled with the consent of the Indemnifying Party (the “Indemnification Trigger Date”).

 

8.4.4 NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY CONTAINED IN THIS AGREEMENT, IN NO EVENT SHALL THE PARTIES OR ANY ONE OF THEM BE LIABLE TO ANY OTHER PARTY FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES, REGARDLESS OF THE LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY, WHETHER FORESEEABLE OR UNFORESEEABLE, UPON WHICH THE CLAIM IS BASED, ARISING OUT OF A BREACH OR FAILURE OF AN EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTY OR CONDITION, BREACH OF CONTRACT, MISREPRESENTATION, NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY IN TORT OR OTHERWISE.

 

     8.5        Survival for Indemnification

 

8.6 .  Each of the Parties’ representations and warranties made in this Agreement, or in any certificate or other document delivered pursuant to this Agreement or in connection with this Agreement, shall survive the Closing Date for a period of sixty (60) days following the expiration of all statutes of limitations applicable to the matters covered thereby, provided, however, that the representations and warranties which are the basis for any such claims asserted under this Agreement prior to the expiration of such applicable time periods will also survive until the final resolution of those claims.
