     10.4 Procedure Relative to Indemnification.
          (a) If an indemnified party shall claim that it is entitled to be indemnified, defended or held harmless pursuant to the terms of this Article 10 (each, a “Claim”), such party (the “Claiming Party”) shall notify the party or parties against which the claim is made (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing (a “Claim Notice”) of such Claim promptly after the Claiming Party receives notice of any action, Proceeding, demand or assessment or otherwise has received notice or become aware of any claim that may reasonably be expected to result in a Claim by the Claiming Party against the Indemnifying Party (provided that in the event of a delay in giving such notice, the Indemnifying Party shall not be relieved of its indemnification obligations hereunder unless it is materially prejudiced thereby and then only to the extent of the prejudice). The Claim Notice shall specify the breach of representation, warranty, agreement or covenant or other basis for indemnification claimed by the Claiming Party and the Losses incurred by, or actually or potentially imposed upon, the Claiming Party on account thereof. If such Losses are liquidated in amount, the Claim Notice shall so state and such amount shall be deemed the amount of the Claim of the Claiming Party. If the amount is not liquidated, the Claim Notice shall so state and in such event a Claim shall be deemed asserted against the Indemnifying Party on behalf of the Claiming Party.
          (b) If any Claims of the Claiming Party are based upon a claim by a third-party (a “Third-Party Claim”) (including any form of Proceeding filed or instituted by any Governmental Body), then Indemnifying Party may assume the exclusive right to control and defend such Third-Party Claim, provided that the Buyer is regularly consulted, kept informed and given the reasonable opportunity to comment and object to all aspects of the Third-Party Claim. In all such cases, the Claiming Party will have the right to participate, at the Claiming Party’s expense, in the defense or settlement of such claim with counsel reasonably

38


 

satisfactory to Indemnifying Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to settle and compromise such Third-Party Claim only with the consent of the Claiming Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event that either Buyer or Parent is the Claiming Party and it determines in its reasonable judgment that (x) there is a probability that the amount of Loss claimed will be greater than the Escrow Amount; (y) the Claims include claims seeking equitable or other non-monetary relief, or (z) there is a probability that a Third-Party Claim may adversely affect its rights to conduct the Business after the Closing Date, then Buyer or Parent (as the case may be) may, by written notice to the Securityholder Representative, assume the exclusive right to control, defend, compromise, or settle such Third-Party Claim and the amount of such Loss, if any, and the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel shall be considered Losses of Buyer and/or Parent for purposes of this Agreement. In all such cases, the Indemnifying Party will have the right to participate, at Indemnifying Party’s expense, in the defense or settlement of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to Buyer.
               (i) If the Indemnifying Party shall notify the Claiming Party that the Indemnifying Party does not wish to defend the Third-Party Claim (or a Claiming Party assumes the conduct of a Third-Party Claim under the circumstances described in the penultimate sentence of Section 10.4(b)) the Claiming Party shall have the right to:
                    (1) conduct a defense against such Third-Party Claim provided that it promptly and regularly provides the Indemnifying Party with information material to the conduct and progress of the Third-Party Claim; and
                    (2) settle and compromise such Third-Party Claim if it acts reasonably and in good faith upon ten (10) days’ notice to, but without having to first obtain the consent of, the Indemnifying Party.
          (c) Upon receipt of a Claim Notice that does not involve a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) days from the receipt of such Claim Notice (which has been given in accordance with the requirements of Section 10.4(a)) to notify the Claiming Party that the Indemnifying Party disputes such Claim. If the Indemnifying Party does not provide timely notification to the Claiming Party of such dispute, then the amount of such Claim shall be deemed, conclusively, a liability of the Indemnifying Party hereunder. If the Indemnifying Party does timely notify the Claiming Party of such dispute, then the Claiming Party shall have thirty (30) days from the date of receipt of such notice to respond in a written statement to the objection of the Indemnifying Party. If after such thirty (30)-day period there remains a dispute as to any such Claim, then the Claiming Party and the Indemnifying Party shall attempt in good faith for a period not to exceed thirty (30) additional days to agree upon the rights of the respective parties with respect to such Claim. If the parties should so agree, a memorandum setting forth such agreement shall be prepared and signed by the Buyer and the Indemnifying Party. If the parties do not agree within such additional thirty (30)-day period, then the Claiming Party may pursue any and all other remedies available to it hereunder.
          (d) Once the amount of any Claim under this Article 10 is liquidated and the Claim is finally determined, the Claiming Party shall be entitled to pursue each and every remedy available to it at law or in equity to enforce the indemnification provisions of this Article 10 and, in the event it is determined, or the Indemnifying Party agrees, that it is obligated to indemnify the Claiming Party for such Claim, the Indemnifying Party agrees to

39


 

pay all reasonable costs, expenses and fees, including all reasonable attorneys’ fees which may be incurred by the Claiming Party in attempting to enforce indemnification under this Article 10, whether the same shall be enforced by suit or otherwise which the Indemnifying Party and the Claiming Party agree are due to the Claiming Party or which a court, arbitrator or other judicial body determines are due to the Claiming Party.
          10.5 Limits on Indemnification.
          (a) Notwithstanding anything contained in the Transaction Documents to the contrary, the Securityholders shall not be obligated to indemnify, defend or hold harmless any Buyer Indemnified Party with respect to any Losses from any Claim or Claims under Section 10.2(a)(i):
               (i) for less than $5,000 for any particular item or series of related items; provided that this clause (i) shall cease to apply once the total Losses from all Claims (other than any Claims for less than A$5,000) equal or exceed A$100,000; and
               (ii) unless and until the aggregate Losses from all Claims under Section 10.2(a)(i), not including Claims excluded by clause (i) above, exceed A$100,000 (the “Basket Amount”), in which case the Buyer Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to be indemnified against the full amount of such Losses (which full amount shall include Losses previously excluded under Section 10.5(a)(i) and the portion of such Losses below A$100,000) and thereafter, the limitation set forth in Section 10.5(a)(i) shall cease to apply.
          (b) In no event shall the total indemnity obligations of any individual Securityholder exceed the Purchase Price actually paid to such Securityholder by the Buyer.
          (c) The Securityholders’ indemnification obligations under this Article 10 shall also be subject to the following limitations:
               (i) The Escrow Amount shall be, subject to the proviso of this clause (i), the sole source to satisfy the indemnification provisions of Article 10 with respect to Claims in respect of any Losses relating to any breach of the representations or warranties of the Company as the date hereof or as of the Closing Date other than a breach of Section 4.6 (and, subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, the Securityholders’ liability shall be limited to that amount); provided that the Buyer may also by giving notice in writing to the Securityholder Representative offset Losses which relate to such Claims which are based on fraud or criminal matters from any Earnout Payment otherwise due; provided that in the event that the Securityholder Representative objects to such offset, the offset shall be deemed unresolved until such amount, if any, has been agreed with the Securityholder Representative or judicially determined. Any amounts indemnifiable by Securityholders under this Article 10 out of any Earnout Payment shall be limited, as to each Securityholder, to such Securityholder’s Pro Rata Portion of such Earnout Payment.
               (ii) The Escrow Amount shall be the first source, but not the sole source, to satisfy the indemnification provisions of Article 10 relating to any other Losses (including breaches of Section 4.6); provided, however, that with respect to indemnification under Sections 10.2(b), 10.2(c), 10.2(d) and 10.2(e) the portion of related Losses that may be claimed against the Escrow shall be limited to the breaching Securityholders’ share of the Escrow Amount at the relevant time.

40


 

               (iii) No Securityholder shall be liable in respect of a Claim under this Article 10 if, within six months of the date by which the Securityholder or the Securityholder Representative (as the case may be) receives the Claim Notice in respect of the Claim, (A) the Claim has not been agreed, compromised or settled, and (B) a Buyer Indemnified Party has not issued and served legal proceedings against the party in respect of the Claim.
               (iv) No Buyer Indemnified Party is entitled to recover under any Claim more than once in respect of the same Loss.
               (v) No Buyer Indemnified Party is entitled to recover in respect of any Loss caused by any act, omission or arrangement:
  (1)   of, by or on behalf of the Buyer or any Related Entity of the Buyer before or after the Closing (but subject to the duties to mitigate Losses provided in this Article 10, this clause shall not apply to any increasing Losses caused by a Claim remaining unresolved);
  (2)   of any other person, made at the request of or with the prior consent of the Buyer or any Related Entity of the Buyer; or
  (3)   implementing, or permitted or contemplated by, the terms of any Transaction Document; or
               (vi) No Buyer Indemnified Party is entitled to recover in respect of any Loss caused by any change after the date of this Agreement in any applicable law or in its interpretation or in any administrative practice or ruling of a Government Body (even if the change has retrospective effect).
               (vii) No Claim in respect of any representation or warranty in Section 4.14 may be made where the Claim:
  (1)   concerns or arises out of a fact, matter or circumstance arising from ordinary trading activities of a Group Company between 31 March 2011 and Closing;
  (2)   concerns or arises out of a fact, matter or circumstance which is GST which is recoverable from the recipient of a supply or for which an input tax credit is available;
  (3)   does not exceed any overprovision for Tax in the Financial Statements;
  (4)   does not exceed any Tax refund, offset or credit received by the Company or a Company Subsidiary for a period before Closing;
  (5)   concerns or arises out of a fact, matter or circumstance arising from an election or choice made after Closing without the fully

41


 

informed prior written consent of Securityholder Representative (which must not unreasonably withhold or delay consent) in connection with a Return or a request to amend an assessment of Tax.
               (viii) In the event that the Buyer (A) claims that a Material Adverse Effect has occurred due to events, actions or omissions occurring after the date of this Agreement, (B) claims that such Material Adverse Effect causes the condition in Section 3.2(g) not to be satisfied and (C) decides to waive such condition and consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, then Buyer shall not be entitled to make any indemnification claims against the Securityholders relating to the events, actions or omissions after the date of this Agreement that led to the Material Adverse Effect claim. Buyer shall give the Company notice promptly after it determines that a Material Adverse Effect has occurred.
          (d) Save for the limitation in Section 10.5(b), none of the limitations set forth in Section 10.1 or this Section 10.5 shall apply in respect of a Securityholder in the case of indemnification for any Losses or other indemnification matter based upon, arising out of, or relating to fraud or criminal matters (i) (x) which occurred on or before the date of the Agreement and (y) of which such Securityholder was aware prior to the date of the Agreement, and (ii) if the covenant contained in the immediately following sentence has been complied with, (x) which occurred on or before the date of the Agreement and (y) of which such Securityholder becomes aware during the period from the date of the Agreement until Closing. The Company and the Securityholders each agree to notify the Buyer immediately (which must be within one business day) if it becomes aware, during the period between the date of this Agreement and Closing, of any fraud or criminal matter which occurred on or prior to the date of the Agreement. If the covenant contained in the immediately following sentence has not been complied with, then with respect to clause (iii)(x) above, the date of occurrence shall be the date of Closing instead of the date of the Agreement.
          (e) The amount of any Losses for which indemnification is provided under this Article 10 shall be net of:
               (i) any amounts actually recovered by a Buyer Indemnified Party from any third person (by contribution, indemnification or otherwise) with respect to such Losses; and
               (ii) any amounts that the Buyer Indemnified Party actually recovers under any contract of insurance in respect of any fact, matter or circumstance giving rise to the Claim.
          (f) If a Buyer Indemnified Party recovers any such amount after any one or more Securityholders has made a payment to the Buyer Indemnified Party (or an amount has been appropriated from the Escrow Account) to settle or discharge any indemnification obligation under this Article 10, the Buyer Indemnified Party must promptly make a payment to the relevant Securityholder or Securityholders (as the case may be) of an amount necessary to give effect to Section 10.5(e).
          (g) Each Buyer Indemnified Party must take commercially reasonable steps to avoid or mitigate any Loss in respect of which it is entitled to seek indemnification under this Article 10; provided that the foregoing shall not require any Buyer Indemnified Party to take any action that will result in increased expenses to any Buyer Indemnified Party, such as an

42


 

increase in insurance premiums. If a Buyer Indemnified Party does not comply with its obligations under this Section 10.5(g) and compliance would have mitigated the Loss, no party shall be liable under this Article 10 for the amount by which the Loss would have been so reduced.
     10.6 Certain Indemnification Matters.
          (a) The Securityholders shall have no right to seek contribution from the Company with respect to all or any part of any of the Securityholders’ indemnification obligations under this Article 10.
          (b) In connection with any exercise by the Buyer of its indemnification rights under this Article 10 in respect of a Claim in relation to any matter for which Securityholders are jointly and severally liable under this Agreement, the Buyer shall be entitled to make all such Claims through and deal exclusively and settle such Claims with the Securityholder Representative for any Securityholder who is an indemnifying party hereunder. Unless the Securityholder Representative agrees otherwise in writing, the Buyer must deal directly with a Securityholder in respect of a Claim in relation to any matter for which that Securityholder is severally liable.
          (c) For the purpose of determining the amount of the Losses resulting from a breach or inaccuracy of a representation, warranty, or covenant of the Company or the Securityholders (but not for the purpose of determining the existence of such breach or inaccuracy), any “materiality” or “Material Adverse Effect” qualifiers or words of similar import contained in such representation or warranty giving rise to the claim of indemnity hereunder shall in each case be disregarded and without effect (as if such standard or qualification were deleted from such representation or warranty).
          (d) The right of any Buyer Indemnified Party to indemnification under this Article 10 is personal to that Buyer Indemnified Party and may not be assigned or otherwise transferred to any other person.
          (e) Subject to Section 10.5(c)(v) and save in respect of information disclosed in Schedules 4.1 to 4.28 of this Agreement, the right to indemnification, reimbursement or other remedy provided by this Agreement shall not be affected by any investigation (including any environmental investigation or assessment) conducted with respect to, or any knowledge acquired (or capable of being acquired) at any time, whether before or after the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the Closing Date, with respect to the accuracy or inaccuracy of or compliance with any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation providing the basis for any indemnification obligation owed to, reimbursement obligation owed to or any other remedy of any Buyer Indemnified Party.
ARTICLE 11
TAX MATTERS
     11.1 In this clause: (a) GST means GST as defined in the GST Act or any replacement or other relevant legislation and regulations; (b) words used in this clause which have a particular meaning in the GST law (as defined in the GST Act, and also including any applicable legislative determinations and Australian Taxation Office (including the New Zealand equivalent) public rulings) have the same meaning, unless the context otherwise requires; (c) any reference to GST payable by a party includes any corresponding GST

43


 

payable by the representative member of any GST group of which that party is a member; and (d) if the GST law treats part of a supply as a separate supply for the purpose of determining whether GST is payable on that part of the supply or for the purpose of determining the tax period to which that part of the supply is attributable, such part of the supply is to be treated as a separate supply.
          (a) Unless GST is expressly included, the consideration expressed to be payable under any other clause of this Agreement for any supply made under or in connection with this Agreement does not include GST.
          (b) To the extent that any supply made under or in connection with this Agreement is a taxable supply, the GST exclusive consideration otherwise payable for that supply is increased by an amount equal to that consideration multiplied by the rate at which GST is imposed in respect of the supply, and is payable at the same time.
          (c) Each party agrees to do all things, including providing tax invoices and other documentation, that may be necessary or desirable to enable or assist the other party to claim any input tax credit, adjustment or refund in relation to any amount of GST paid or payable in respect of any supply made under or in connection with this Agreement.
          (d) If a payment to a party under this Agreement is a payment by way of reimbursement or indemnity and is calculated by reference to the GST inclusive amount of a loss, cost or expense incurred by that party, then the payment is to be reduced by the amount of any input tax credit to which that party is entitled in respect of that loss, cost or expense before any adjustment is made for GST pursuant to Section 11.1(b).
     11.2 Transfer Taxes. All stock transfer, property transfer, excise, sales, use, documentary, stamp duty, Taxes and all conveyance fees, recording charges and other similar Taxes (including interest, penalties and additions to any such taxes) in each case including any such Taxes or fees levied upon the transfer of stock or other equity interests in an entity on account of such entity’s direct or indirect ownership of property (“Transfer Taxes”) incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be paid by the Buyer. The Buyer shall prepare and file all necessary Returns and other documentation with respect to such Transfer Taxes.
     11.3 Tax Treatment of Certain Payments. For all relevant Tax purposes, all indemnification payments paid pursuant to Article 10 shall be treated as adjustments to the Purchase Price.
     11.4 Tax Cooperation.
          (a) From and after the Closing Date, each of the Buyer, the Securityholder Representative and the officers and directors of the Company prior to Closing (to the extent they are also Securityholders) shall cooperate, as reasonably requested, in connection with the preparation of any Returns of the Company, and each Company Subsidiary and in connection with any Tax Audit or Tax dispute. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the other party’s request, at the requesting parties cost and expense) the provision of records and information which are reasonably relevant to any such Tax Audit or Tax dispute. Buyer, the Securityholder Representative and the officers and directors of the Company prior to Closing (to the extent they are also Securityholders) shall, upon request, use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any certificate or other document from any Governmental Body or any other

44


 

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 transactions contemplated hereby).
          (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 11.4(a), the obligations of the Securityholder Representative and the officers and directors of the Company prior to Closing (to the extent they are also Securityholders) under Section 11.4(a) shall be limited to the provision of such cooperation and assistance as it would be reasonable to expect them to provide having regard to their respective knowledge of factual information, possession of relevant records and entitlement or standing to obtain any certificate or other document from any Person. All costs incurred in connection with providing such cooperation and assistance shall be borne by the Buyer.
