Section 12.14 Administration of Indemnification. For purposes of administering the indemnification provisions set forth in Sections 12.09, 12.10, 12.11, 12.12 and 12.13, the following procedure shall apply:

(a) Whenever a claim shall arise for indemnification under this Article, the party entitled to indemnification (the “Indemnified Party”) shall promptly give written notice to the party from whom indemnification is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) setting forth in reasonable detail, to the extent then available, the facts concerning the nature of such claim and the basis upon which the Indemnified Party believes that it is entitled to indemnification hereunder.

(b) In the event of any claim for indemnification resulting from or in connection with any claim by a third party, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled, at its sole expense, either (i) to participate in defending against such claim or (ii) to assume the entire defense with counsel which is selected by it and which is reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party provided that (A) the Indemnifying Party agrees in writing that it does not and will not contest its responsibility for indemnifying the Indemnified Party in respect of such claim or proceeding and (B) no settlement shall be made and no judgment consented to without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party which shall not be unreasonably withheld. If, however, (i) the claim, action, suit or proceeding would, if successful, result in the imposition of damages for which the Indemnifying Party would not be solely responsible, or (ii) representation of both parties by the same counsel would otherwise be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them, then the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to assume the entire defense and each party shall be entitled to retain counsel who shall cooperate with one another in defending against such claim. In the case of clause (i) of the immediately preceding sentence, the Indemnifying Party shall be obligated to bear only that portion of the expense of the Indemnified Party’s counsel that is in proportion to the damages indemnifiable by the Indemnifying Party compared to the total amount of the third-party claim against the Indemnified Party.

 

43


(c) If the Indemnifying Party does not choose to defend against a claim by a third party, the Indemnified Party may defend in such manner as it deems appropriate or settle the claim (after giving notice thereof to the Indemnifying Party) on such terms as the Indemnified Party may deem appropriate, and the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to periodic reimbursement of defense expenses incurred and prompt indemnification from the Indemnifying Party in accordance with this Article.

(d) Failure or delay by an Indemnified Party to give prompt notice of any claim (if given prior to expiration of any applicable survival period) shall not release, waive or otherwise affect an Indemnifying Party’s obligations with respect to the claim, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party can demonstrate actual loss or prejudice as a result of such failure or delay.

Section 12.15 Exclusivity. The rights and remedies set forth in this Article XII shall be exclusive of all other rights to monetary damages that any party (or any party’s successors or assigns) would otherwise have at law or in equity in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any other Document, other than with respect to claims based on common law fraud or rights which by law cannot be waived or limited.

Article XIII.

DOWN PAYMENT AND ESCROW

Section 13.01 Investment of Down Payment. Escrow Agent shall deposit the Down Payment in an escrow account in the name of Escrow Agent in a commercial bank designated by New Investor and SSLII and reasonably acceptable to Seller. Escrow Agent shall invest the Down Payment in an insured non-interest bearing account, or in non-interest bearing investments backed by securities issued by the U.S. federal government, as New Investor, SSLII and Seller may from time to time direct.

Section 13.02 Disbursement of Down Payment. Escrow Agent shall hold the Down Payment in escrow and release the same as follows:

(a) If at any time prior to expiration of the Due Diligence Period, Escrow Agent shall receive written notice from New Investor stating that (i) New Investor is terminating this Agreement, and (ii) New Investor is simultaneously giving Seller a copy of such notice, Escrow Agent shall promptly disburse the Down Payment to New Investor and SSLII in the percentages as directed jointly by New Investor and SSLII, without the need for further instructions from or approvals by any other party to this Agreement.

(b) If at any time after the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, but prior to Closing, Escrow Agent shall receive written notice from New Investor or SSLII stating that (i) New Investor or SSLII, as applicable, is terminating this Agreement for a reason other than a Seller default or another reason which would permit New Investor and SSLII to receive the Down Payment, and (ii) New Investor or SSLII, as applicable, is simultaneously giving Seller a copy of such notice, Escrow Agent shall promptly disburse the Down Payment to Seller, without the need for further instructions from or approvals by any other party to this Agreement.

 

44


(c) Except as provided in Section 13.02(e), if Escrow Agent shall receive written notice from New Investor or SSLII (“Seller Default Notice”) stating that (i) Seller has failed to complete Closing in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, or has defaulted in any other manner under this Agreement, (ii) Seller has not cured such failure or default in accordance with Section 12.02, and (iii) New Investor and/or SSLII is demanding the return of the Down Payment, then Escrow Agent shall immediately deliver a copy of the Seller Default Notice to Seller. If on or before the date which is five (5) Business Days following Seller’s receipt of the Seller Default Notice, Seller shall object in writing (“Seller’s Objection Notice”) to the return of the Down Payment to New Investor and SSLII, then Escrow Agent shall not return the Down Payment to New Investor or SSLII. If Seller shall not deliver a Seller’s Objection Notice to Escrow Agent on or before the date which is five (5) Business Days following Seller’s receipt of the Seller Default Notice, then Escrow Agent shall promptly return the Down Payment to New Investor and SSLII in the percentages as directly jointly by New Investor and SSLII, without the need for further instructions from or approvals by any other party to this Agreement.

(d) Except as provided in Section 13.02(e), if Escrow Agent shall receive a written notice from Seller (“Purchaser Default Notice”) stating that (i) Purchaser, SSLII or New Investor has failed to complete Closing in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement, or has defaulted in any other manner under this Agreement, (ii) Purchaser, SSLII or New Investor, as applicable, has not cured such failure or default in accordance with Section 12.03, Section 12.04 or Section 12.05, as applicable, and (iii) Seller is demanding the release of the Down Payment to Seller, Escrow Agent shall promptly deliver a copy of the Purchaser Default Notice to SSLII and New Investor. If on or before the date which is five (5) Business Days following New Investor or SSLII’s receipt of the Purchaser Default Notice, SSLII, New Investor or Purchaser shall object in writing (“Purchaser’s Objection Notice”) to the release of the Down Payment to Seller, then Escrow Agent shall not release the Down Payment to Seller. If SSLII or New Investor shall not deliver a Purchaser’s Objection Notice to Escrow Agent on or before the date which is five (5) Business Days following SSLII’s or New Investor’s receipt of the Purchaser Default Notice, then Escrow Agent shall promptly release the Down Payment to Seller, without the need for further instructions from or approvals by any other party to this Agreement.

(e) If Escrow Agent shall receive written notice from New Investor or SSLII (“Failure of Condition Notice”) stating that (i) New Investor has failed to complete Closing in accordance with the terms of this Agreement solely due to a failure of one or more of the conditions set forth in Section 10.01(d) or (e) and confirming that Purchaser and SSLII are not in breach of their obligations under Section 9.04 or Section 3.02(a)(ii), or (ii) Purchaser and SSLII have failed to complete Closing in accordance with the terms of this Agreement solely due to a failure of the condition set forth in Section 10.03(d) and confirming that Purchaser and SSLII are not in breach of their obligations under Section 9.04, then Escrow Agent shall immediately deliver a copy of the Failure of Condition Notice to Seller. If on or before the date which is five (5) Business Days following Seller’s receipt of the Failure of Condition Notice, Seller shall object in writing (“Seller’s Failure of Condition Objection Notice”) to the return of the Down Payment to New Investor and SSLII, then Escrow Agent shall not return the Down Payment to New Investor or SSLII. If Seller shall not deliver a Seller’s Failure of Condition Notice to Escrow Agent on or before the date which is five (5) Business Days following Seller’s receipt of the Seller Default Notice, then Escrow Agent shall promptly return the Down Payment to New

 

45


Investor and SSLII in the percentages as directly jointly by New Investor and SSLII, without the need for further instructions from or approvals by any other party to this Agreement.

(f) Unless the Down Payment shall have been previously released by Escrow Agent pursuant to this Section 13.02, at Closing, Escrow Agent shall deliver the Down Payment to Seller as part of the Purchase Price.

Section 13.03 Disputes. In the event of any dispute between Seller, on the one hand, and Purchaser, SSLII or New Investor, on the other hand, regarding the disbursement of the Down Payment pursuant to Sections 13.02(c) or (d), or in the event Escrow Agent shall receive conflicting demands or instructions with respect to the disbursement of the Down Payment, Escrow Agent shall withhold disbursement of the Down Payment until it receives either (i) joint written instructions from Seller, Purchaser, SSLII and New Investor (or, with respect to a dispute among only SSLII and New Investor, then joint written instructions from SSLII and New Investor) with respect to the disbursement of the Down Payment or (ii) an order binding upon it from a court of competent jurisdiction with respect to the disbursement of the Down Payment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of any such dispute or conflicting demands or instructions, Escrow Agent shall have the right to deliver the Down Payment into the registry of any court of competent jurisdiction, and Escrow Agent shall thereupon be released from any further liabilities or obligations with respect to the Down Payment.

Section 13.04 Compensation. Escrow Agent shall receive no compensation for its services performed pursuant to this Agreement except for reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs incurred as a result of any dispute between the parties hereto. Such fees and costs shall be borne by the party adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction to have been at fault.

Section 13.05 Liability of Escrow Agent. The parties covenant and agree that in performing any of its duties under this Agreement, Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any Loss which it may incur as a result of serving as Escrow Agent hereunder, except for any Loss arising out of its willful default or gross negligence. Accordingly, Escrow Agent shall not incur any liability with respect to (i) any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith upon advice of its counsel given with respect to any questions relating to its duties and responsibilities (ii) to any action taken or omitted to be taken in reliance upon any document, not only as to its due execution and the validity and effectiveness of its provisions, but also to the truth and accuracy of any information contained therein, which Escrow Agent shall in good faith believe to be genuine, to have been signed or presented by a proper person or persons and to conform with the provisions of this Agreement or (iii) failure, insolvency, or inability of the depositary to pay said funds upon demand for withdrawal; or (iv) levies by taxing authorities based upon the taxpayer identification number used to establish this interest bearing account. Seller, Purchaser, SSLII and New Investor hereby agree, jointly and severally, to indemnify and hold harmless Escrow Agent against any and all Losses which may be imposed upon or incurred by Escrow Agent in connection with its serving as Escrow Agent hereunder, except for any Loss arising out of its willful default or gross negligence.
