1.Purchase of Transferred Assets.
1.1 Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, as of the Effective Date, Orion agrees to and hereby does sell, convey, assign and transfer to Motiva, and Motiva will and hereby does purchase and acquire from Orion free and clear of any Liens, all of Orion’s right, title and interest in and to the following (collectively, the “Transferred Assets”):

(b) All lists and records pertaining to customer accounts, suppliers, distributors, personnel, agents, relating to the Valid Motiva Inventory and any Additional Motiva Inventory;
(c) All books, records, ledgers, files, customer lists, documents, correspondence, lists, studies and reports and other written materials to the extent related exclusively to the Transferred Assets; provided, that in the event such materials do not relate exclusively, but do relate to the Transferred Assets, a redacted copy of such materials;



(d) All authorizations, permits and approvals (and applications for the foregoing) owned or controlled by Orion that are related to the import, distribution and/or sale of Motiva Products, including, without limitation, all registrations and regulatory approvals granted by Governmental Entities; and
(e) All domain names and promotional materials that contain the Trademarks (as defined in the Distribution Agreement) or any other mark or identifier that may be confusingly similar to the Trademarks, and all Intellectual Property rights within the foregoing.
2. Purchase Price.
2.1 The aggregate purchase price for the Transferred Assets (the “Purchase Price”) shall be:
(a) a cash payment (in Euros) equal to the value of the Motiva Inventory Amount (as defined below);
(b)  a cash payment (in Euros) equal to the value of the True-Up Motiva Inventory Amount (as defined below), if applicable; and
(c) a cash payment of two hundred eighty-eight thousand euros (€288,000) for the balance of the Transferred Assets (the “Ancillary Asset Amount”).
2.2 All amounts stated above shall be net and exclusive of any value added tax. If and to the extent that any payments are subject to value added tax or similar taxes, those taxes shall be added to the respective payment.
3.  Effective Date of Transfer and the Agreement. The Agreement, and all obligations on the Parties herein, shall enter into full effect on the Effective Date unless otherwise explicitly established in the body of the Agreement. Orion will Transfer the Transferred Assets on the Effective Date and Motiva will make payments to Orion as set out in Section 5.
4. Motiva Inventory.
4.1 A physical inspection and accounting of Inventory of the Motiva Products owned and/or controlled by Orion (such products, the “Motiva Inventory”) was undertaken by Motiva or its representatives on July 26-27, 2020 and such Motiva Inventory that Motiva or its representatives reasonably determined to be of saleable quality, fit for the purpose for which they are intended, saleable and useable in the ordinary course of business, and free of defects and damage, which, as of the Effective Date, is set out in Schedule 3 and relevant appendixes (such Motiva Inventory, “Valid Motiva Inventory”) and shall be valued at the amount paid by Orion to Motiva or its Affiliates for such Valid Motiva Inventory, which is calculated, as of the Effective Date, as six hundred eighty-two thousand thirty-one euros (€682,031) (the aggregate value of the Valid Motiva Inventory, the “Motiva Inventory Amount”). Motiva or its representatives shall complete a subsequent physical inspection and accounting of the Valid Motiva Inventory if any such Valid Motiva Inventory that is in transit, located with customers (either in permanent or flash consignment), or at the premises of DAP Sides becomes available for such an inspection. Such inspection(s) will be done to confirm the quantities of Valid Motiva Inventory (such Valid Motiva Inventory, “Confirmed Motiva Inventory”). Motiva shall value any changes to the Confirmed Motiva Inventory in the same way that it valued the Valid Motiva Inventory.
         2


4.2 Any such physical inspection and accounting of the Motiva Products in connection to the Confirmed Motiva Inventory is to be conducted by Motiva or its representatives jointly with Orion or its representatives, and each Party shall be responsible for any costs incurred by them in connection with their involvement in conducting the physical inventory. Orion may identify additional Motiva Inventory not found as of the Effective Date for up to sixty (60) days after the Effective Date (the “Final Motiva Inventory Date”). Orion shall notify Motiva in writing of any such sales and connected changes in the Motiva Inventory as well as additional Motiva Inventory no later than three (3) Business Days after the Final Motiva Inventory Date. Motiva shall inspect and confirm to its reasonable satisfaction that any such additional Motiva Inventory identified by Orion is Valid Motiva Inventory (the “Additional Motiva Inventory”) within five (5) Business Days of receipt of Orion’s written notice of the Additional Motiva Inventory. Any Additional Motiva Inventory shall be valued at the amount paid by Orion to Motiva or its Affiliates for such Additional Motiva Inventory (the “Additional Motiva Inventory Amount”). The Parties shall make adjustments to payments as a result of the (i) Additional Motiva Inventory Amount, and (ii) any adjustments to the Motiva Inventory Amount required due to any differences between the Valid Motiva Inventory and the Confirmed Motiva Inventory, in each case as applicable, (collectively the “True-Up Motiva Inventory Amount”) pursuant to Section 5.
4.3 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Additional Motiva Inventory Amount payable to Orion shall not exceed one hundred thousand Euros (€100,000). For clarity, if Orion does not provide Motiva with written notice of any additional Motiva Inventory it identifies on or before the Final Motiva Inventory Date, it shall be deemed that no Additional Motiva Inventory exists and Motiva shall have no obligation to pay Orion any Additional Motiva Inventory Amount.
5. Payment of the Purchase Price. Motiva shall pay to Orion a cash amount (in Euros) equal to the Motiva Inventory Amount plus the Ancillary Asset Amount no later than five (5) Business Days after the Effective Date. If applicable, Motiva shall pay Orion a cash amount (in Euros) equal to the True-Up Motiva Inventory Amount no later than fifteen (15) Business Days after the Final Motiva Inventory Date; provided, however that the Additional Inventory Amount portion of such True-Up Motiva Amount is payable to Orion only if Orion complies with all applicable obligations pursuant to Section 4.2. All payment(s) under this Section 5 shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account that Orion designates in writing in advance of such payment(s).

At any time and from time to time after the Effective Date, the Parties shall (a) furnish upon reasonable request to each other such information, documents, instruments of transfer or assignment, files and books and records, (b) promptly execute, acknowledge, and deliver any such documents, instruments of transfer or assignment, files and books and records, and (c) do all such further acts and things, as such other Party may reasonably request for the purpose of carrying out the intent of this Agreement, including gaining access to any Motiva Inventory on the premises of third parties, and the documents referred to herein.

by any other Party of any such representation or warranty and notifies the breaching Party in writing prior to the expiration of the survival period applicable to such representation and warranty (which notice shall identify the nature of such claim with reasonable specificity and such Party’s reasonable estimate of the value of such claim), such representation or warranty and liability therefor shall survive, but only with respect to the specified breach which is specified in such notice, until such breach has been resolved, but no Party shall have any liability after such five (5) year period for any alleged breaches of representations and warranties not specifically specified in a writing delivered within such five (5) year period.

10.3 Tax Consequences. Any indemnity payment made under Section 10 with respect to a breach by either Party shall be deemed to be an adjustment in the Purchase Price, unless a contrary treatment is required under applicable Law.
10.4 Sole and Exclusive Remedy. The Parties agree and acknowledge that, except in the case of intentional misrepresentation, fraud or intentional or willful breach of this Agreement, the rights to indemnification provided for in this Section 10 shall be the sole and exclusive remedy (regardless of the theory or cause of action pled) for monetary damages of Orion Indemnified Parties on the one hand, or Motiva Indemnified Parties, on the other hand, as the case may be, after the closing for and with respect to any misrepresentation, breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty of a Party and for any nonfulfillment, breach or violation of any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement by a Party, and each Party hereby waives to the fullest extent permitted by law, any other rights or remedies that may arise under any applicable Law in connection therewith; provided, however, that nothing herein will limit in any way any Party’s rights hereunder or otherwise, to specific performance, injunctive relief or other non-monetary equitable relief.
