(a)Any misrepresentation or breach of warranty made by any Seller or Shareholder in this Agreement or in any other agreement, certificate, schedule, exhibit or writing delivered by any Seller or Shareholder to Buyer pursuant to this Agreement;

(b)Any breach or failure to perform any covenant or agreement made or undertaken by any Seller or Shareholder in this Agreement or in any other agreement, certificate, schedule, exhibit or writing delivered by any Seller or Shareholder to Buyer pursuant to this Agreement; but as to any environmental claims ("Environmental Claims") the maximum aggregate Damages and indemnification from Sellers shall not exceed $150,000 which amount, if any, shall come from the Escrow Funds subject to the limitations set forth in the Escrow Agreement; and

(c)The Retained Liabilities.

11.2Buyer's Indemnity. Subject to the provisions of this Article 11, from and after the Closing Date, Buyer will indemnify and hold harmless Sellers and Shareholders and their respective directors, officers, agents, employees, representatives, successors and assigns, from and against any and all Damages incurred by any of the above-named Persons, directly or indirectly, resulting from or in connection with:

(b)Any breach or failure to perform any covenant or agreement made or undertaken by Buyer in this Agreement or in any other agreement, certificates, schedule, exhibit or writing delivered by Buyer to Sellers and Shareholders pursuant to this Agreement; and

(c)The Assumed Liabilities.

11.3Procedure. All claims for indemnification by a party under this Article 11 (the party claiming indemnification and the party against whom such claims are asserted being hereinafter called the "Indemnified Party" and the "Indemnifying Party," respectively) shall be asserted and resolved as follows:

(a)If any claim or demand for which an Indemnifying Party would be liable to an Indemnified Party hereunder is asserted against or sought to be collected from such Indemnified Party by a third party, such Indemnified Party shall with reasonable promptness give notice (the "Claim Notice") to the Indemnifying Party of such claim or demand, specifying the nature of and specific basis for such claim or demand and the amount or the estimated amount thereof to the extent then feasible; provided, however, that the failure to so notify will not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced thereby. The Indemnifying Party will have fifteen (15) days from the delivery or mailing of the Claim Notice (the "Notice Period") to notify the Indemnified Party (i) whether or not it disputes the liability of the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party hereunder with respect to such claim or demand, and (ii) whether or not it desires, at the cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, to defend the Indemnified Party against such claim or demand. If the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party within the Notice Period that it desires to defend the Indemnified Party against such claim or demand, the Indemnifying Party will have the right to control the defense against the claim by all appropriate proceedings and any settlement negotiations, provided that to the satisfaction of the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party shall secure the Indemnified Party against such contested claims by posting a bond or otherwise. If the Indemnified Party desires to participate in, but not control, any such defense or settlement, it may do so at its sole cost and expense. If the Indemnifying Party fails to respond to the Indemnified Party within the Notice Period, elects not to defend the Indemnified Party, or after electing to defend fails to commence or reasonably pursue such defense, then the Indemnified Party shall have the right, but not the obligation, to undertake or continue the defense of, and to compromise or settle (exercising reasonable business judgment), the claim or other matter all on behalf, for the account and at the risk of the Indemnifying Party.

(b)If requested by the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party agrees, at the Indemnifying Party's expense, to cooperate with the Indemnifying Party and its counsel in contesting any claim or demand which the Indemnifying Party elects to contest, or, if appropriate and related to the claim in question, in making any counterclaim against the Person asserting the third party claim or demand, or any cross-complaint against any Person. No claim as to which indemnification is sought under this Agreement may be settled without the consent of the Indemnifying Party.

(c)If any Indemnified Party should have a claim against the Indemnifying Party hereunder which does not involve a claim or demand being asserted against or sought to be collected from it by a third party, the Indemnified Party shall send a Claim Notice with respect to such claim to the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party disputes such claim, such dispute shall be resolved by litigation in an appropriate court of competent jurisdiction.

11.4Costs. If any legal action or other proceeding is brought for the enforcement or interpretation of any of the rights or provisions of this Agreement (including the indemnification provision), or because of an alleged dispute, breach, default or misrepresentation in connection with any of the provisions of this Agreement, the successful or prevailing party shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys' fees and all other costs and expenses incurred in that action or proceeding, in addition to any other relief to which it may be entitled.

11.5Time Limitations. No claim for indemnification for any Environmental Claim may be initiated more than six (6) months following the Closing Date. No claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 11.1(a) or Section 11.2(a) may be initiated more than fifteen (15) months following the Closing Date; provided, however, that the limitations in this Section 11.5 shall not apply to any claim of fraud, willful misconduct or intentional breach of any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement.

11.6Limitations on Amount. The aggregate Damages for which an Indemnifying Party will be obligated to indemnify an Indemnified Party with respect to Environmental Claims shall not exceed $150,000 of the Escrow Amount. The aggregate Damages for which an Indemnifying Party will be obligated to indemnify an Indemnified Party under Section 11.1(a) or 11.2(a) shall not exceed the Escrow Amount.

11.7Exclusive Remedy.

(a)Except in the case of fraud, gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct, each party's sole and exclusive remedy with respect to all claims relating to the subject matter of this Agreement will be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article 11; provided, however, that the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article 11 do not apply to claims made under, or arising out of, any other agreements entered into as of the Closing, which will be governed by the respective terms of such agreements.

(b)If any Seller or Shareholder make any claim or institute any actions, suits or proceedings with respect to the validity or applicability of this indemnification provision, each such party shall be responsible for all Damages incurred by Buyer in connection therewith. If Buyer makes any claim or institutes any actions, suits or proceedings with respect to the validity or applicability of this indemnification provision, Buyer shall be responsible for all Damages incurred by Sellers and Shareholders in connection therewith.

ARTICLE 12. TERMINATION

12.1Termination. This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing:

(a)By agreement of Buyer and Sellers;

(b)By either Buyer or Sellers if the Closing has not taken place on or before April 1, 2023 (the "Cut-Off Date"); provided that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 12.1(b) shall not be available to any party whose failure to fulfill any obligation under this Agreement has been the cause of, or results in, the failure of the Closing to occur within such period;

12.2No Liability. Except in the event of a termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 12.1(d) hereof, there shall be no liability on the parties hereto or any of their respective shareholders, officers, directors or affiliates as a result thereof under this Agreement. A termination under Section 12.1(d) hereof will not prejudice any claim for Damages that any party may have hereunder or in law or in equity as a consequence of any matter giving rise to a termination of the Agreement under Section 12.1(d) hereof. Either party shall have the right to specific performance if the Agreement is not otherwise terminated in accordance with the terms hereof.

12.3Notice. Buyer may exercise its right of termination of this Agreement only by delivering written notice to that effect to Sellers, provided that such notice is received by Sellers prior to the Closing.
