4. Certain Provisions Regarding Assignments. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any Seller Ancillary Agreement to the contrary, neither this Agreement nor any Seller Ancillary Agreement will constitute an agreement to assign or transfer any interest in any Assumed Contract or any claim or right arising thereunder if such assignment or transfer without the Consent of a third party would constitute a breach thereof or affect adversely the rights of Buyer thereunder, and any such transfer or assignment will be made subject to such Consent being obtained.

Article III PURCHASE PRICE

 

1. Purchase Price. The purchase price for the Acquired Assets (the “Purchase Price”) will be an amount equal to $2,000,000.00.

 

2. Payment of Purchase Price. On or before December 2, 2024, Buyer will pay to Seller, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Seller, an amount equal to $1,250,000. Additionally, on the Closing Date Buyer will issue to Seller $500,000 in the form of Buyer’s Common Stock. The Common Stock will be issued based on the Nasdaq Official Closing Price for Seller’s Common Stock on the last trading day prior to the Closing Date. At the Closing, Buyer will provide $250,000 in the form of a promissory note paid after six (6) months but within nine (9) months of the Closing Date.

 

3. Closing Statement. Within thirty (30) days after the Closing, Buyer will prepare (or cause to be prepared), issue and deliver to Seller a statement, the “Closing Statement”. Within the fifteen (15) day period after delivery by Buyer of the Closing Statement, Seller will, in a written notice to Buyer, either accept the Closing Statement, or, in the event that Seller believes that the Closing Statement is inaccurate, describe in reasonable detail any proposed adjustments to the Closing Statement which Seller believes should be made and the basis therefor. If Buyer has not received such notice of proposed adjustments within such fifteen (15) day period, the Closing Statement will be deemed to have been accepted and agreed to by Seller in the form in which such Closing Statement is delivered by Buyer and will be final and binding on the Parties. Buyer and Seller will negotiate in good faith to resolve any dispute over Buyer’s proposed Closing Statement, provided that if any such dispute is not resolved within fifteen (15) days following receipt by Seller of the proposed adjustments, Buyer and Seller jointly will select (or, if Buyer and Seller are unable to agree, the American Arbitration Association will select) an independent accounting firm which has not had a material relationship with Buyer, Seller or any of their respective Affiliates within two (2) years preceding such selection (such firm, the “Accounting Firm”) to resolve by arbitration any remaining dispute over Seller’s Closing Statement. The Accounting Firm will resolve the items in dispute and render a written report on the resolved disputed items (and only on those disputed items) within thirty (30) days after the date on which they are engaged or as soon thereafter as possible. In resolving any disputed item, the Accounting Firm may not assign a value to any item greater than the greatest value for such item claimed by Buyer or Seller or less than the smallest value for such item claimed by Buyer or Seller. The resolution of the dispute by the Accounting Firm will be final and binding upon the Parties except in the case of fraud or manifest clerical error, and judgment may be entered on the award. The cost of the services of the Accounting Firm will be allocated by the Accounting Firm between Buyer and Seller in the same proportion that the aggregate amount of such resolved disputed items so submitted to the Accounting Firm that is unsuccessfully disputed by each such Party (as finally determined by the Accounting Firm) bears to the total amount of such resolved disputed items so submitted.

 

4. Allocation of Purchase Price. Within ninety (90) days of the Closing Date, Buyer will provide Seller with a schedule (the “Allocation Schedule”) allocating the Purchase Price among the Acquired Assets in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code. If Seller fails to object to the Allocation Schedule within fifteen (15) days of Seller’s receipt of the Allocation Schedule, then Buyer and Seller agree to allocate the Purchase Price among the Acquired Assets as set forth on the Allocation Schedule. If Seller objects in writing to the Allocation Schedule within fifteen (15) days of Seller’s receipt of the Allocation Schedule, then the Parties will attempt to agree on the allocation of the Purchase Price among the Acquired Assets. If Buyer and Seller fail to agree on the allocation of the Purchase Price, either Party may file an IRS Form 8594 reflecting an allocation of the Purchase Price as determined by such Party in its discretion. Any adjustments to the Purchase Price pursuant to this Agreement will be allocated in a manner consistent with the final allocation of the Purchase Price.

Article VIII INDEMNIFICATION

 

1. Indemnification of Buyer. Subject to the limitations and other provisions of this Article VIII, Seller, jointly and severally, will indemnify and hold harmless Buyer and its Affiliates (collectively, the “Buyer Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all Losses incurred or suffered by the Buyer Indemnified Parties arising out of, relating to or resulting from any of the following:

 

(a) any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty set forth in Article V;

 

(b) the nonfulfillment, nonperformance or other breach of any covenant or agreement of Seller contained in this Agreement; and

 

(c) any arrangements or agreements made or alleged to have been made by Seller with any broker, finder or other agent in connection with the Transactions.

 

2. Indemnification of Seller. Subject to the limitations and other provisions of this Article VIII, Buyer will indemnify and hold harmless Seller and the Seller’s respective Affiliates (collectively, the “Seller Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all Losses incurred or suffered by the Seller Indemnified Parties arising out of, relating to or resulting from any of the following:

 

(a) any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty set forth in Article VI;

 

(b) the nonfulfillment, nonperformance or other breach of any covenant or agreement of Buyer contained in this Agreement;

 

(c) any arrangements or agreements made or alleged to have been made by Buyer with any broker, finder or other agent in connection with the Transactions; and

 

(d) the ownership and operation of the Acquired Assets by Buyer after the Closing Date but excluding Liabilities to the extent arising out of or relating to circumstances forming the basis of a claim for indemnification against Seller pursuant to Section 8.1.

 

3. Claim Procedure. A Party entitled to indemnification hereunder (the “Indemnified Party”) will promptly give written notice (the “Claim Notice”) to the Party obligated to provide indemnification hereunder (the “Indemnifying Party”) after (i) becoming aware of a Loss for which the Indemnified Party intends to seek indemnification, or (ii) receipt by the Indemnified Party of notice of any claim or the commencement of any Proceeding against it by a Person other than an Indemnified Party (a “Third Party Claim”) which may result in a Loss for which the Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification hereunder. The Claim Notice will describe the Loss and/or the asserted Liability in reasonable detail, and will indicate the amount (estimated, if necessary) of the Loss and/or asserted Liability that has been or may be suffered by the Indemnified Party. Except as provided in Section 8.4 below, the failure to provide a Claim Notice will not relieve the Indemnifying Party of any Liability that it may have to any Indemnified Party, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party demonstrates that the defense of such Third Party Claim is prejudiced by the Indemnified Party’s failure to give such Claim Notice.

 

(a) Within fifteen (15) days after receipt of a Claim Notice relating to a claim other than a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party will deliver to the Indemnified Party a written response in which the Indemnifying Party will either: (i) agree that the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive all of the Losses at issue in the Claim Notice; or (ii) dispute the Indemnified Party’s entitlement to indemnification by delivering to the Indemnified Party a written notice (an “Objection Notice”) setting forth in reasonable detail each disputed item, the basis for each such disputed item and certifying that all such disputed items are being disputed in good faith. If the Indemnifying Party fails to take either of the foregoing actions within fifteen (15) days after delivery of the Claim Notice, then the Indemnifying Party will be deemed to have irrevocably accepted the Claim Notice and the Indemnifying Party will be deemed to have irrevocably agreed to pay the Losses at issue in the Claim Notice.

 

17
 

 

(b) If the Indemnifying Party delivers an Objection Notice to the Indemnified Party within fifteen (15) days after delivery of the Claim Notice, then the dispute may be resolved by any legally available means consistent with the provisions of Section 9.10. Third Party Claims. Any Indemnifying Party will have the right to contest, and defend the Indemnified Party against, any Third Party Claim with counsel of the Indemnifying Party’s choice reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party so long as the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party in writing within fifteen (15) days after the Indemnified Party has given a Claim Notice that, subject to the limits set forth in this Article VIII, the Indemnifying Party will indemnify the Indemnified Party from and against the Losses the Indemnified Party may suffer with respect to the Third Party Claim.

 

(c) So long as the Indemnifying Party is conducting the defense of the Third Party Claim in accordance with Section 8.4(a): (i) the Indemnified Party may retain separate co-counsel at its sole cost and expense and participate in the defense of the Third Party Claim, (ii) the Indemnified Party will not consent to the entry of any Governmental Order or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (not to be withheld, delayed or conditioned unreasonably), and (iii) the Indemnifying Party will not consent to the entry of any Governmental Order or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (not to be withheld, delayed or conditioned unreasonably).

 

(d) In the event the Indemnifying Party does not conduct the defense in accordance with Section 8.4(a), the Indemnified Party may defend against the Third Party Claim in any manner it reasonably may deem appropriate; provided, however, that (i) the Indemnifying Party may participate in such defense at its own expense, and (ii) the Indemnified Party will not consent to the entry of any Governmental Order or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (not to be withheld, delayed or conditioned unreasonably).

 

4. Survival. All representations and warranties contained in this Agreement will survive the consummation of the Transactions for a period of two (2) years from the Closing Date, except that (a) the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 5.1(a), 5.1(b), 5.2(a), 5.2(b), 5.10(a), 6.1 and 6.2 will survive the consummation of the Transactions indefinitely and (b) the representations and warranties contained in Section 5.6 will expire sixty (60) days after the end of the relevant statute of limitations (taking into account any tolling periods and other extensions). The survival period of each representation and warranty as provided in this Section 8.5 is hereinafter referred to as the “Indemnification Period.” No Party will have any Liability with respect to claims first asserted in connection with any representation or warranty after expiration of the Indemnification Period. Covenants contemplating or involving actions to be taken, or obligations in effect, after the Closing, will survive the Closing and will continue in full force and effect after the Closing in accordance with their terms. If an Indemnified Party delivers to an Indemnifying Party, before expiration of the Indemnification Period, a Claim Notice based upon a breach of any such representation or warranty, then the applicable representation or warranty will survive until, but only for purposes of, the resolution of the matter covered by such notice.

 

18
 

 

5. Limitations on Liability. The indemnification contemplated by Sections 8.1 and 8.2 will be subject to the following limitations and conditions: Seller will not be subject to any Liability for indemnification under Section 8.1(a) unless and until the aggregate Losses with respect to claims for indemnification under Section 8.1(a) exceed an amount equal to $10,000 (the “Threshold Amount”), at which point Seller will be subject to Liability for indemnification under Section 8.1(a) for all such Losses; provided, however, the Threshold Amount will not be applicable with respect to claims for indemnification for any inaccuracy in or breach of the representations and warranties contained in Section 5.1(a), 5.1(b), 5.2(a), 5.2(b), 5.6 and 5.10(a) (the “Seller Core Representations”); Buyer will not be subject to any Liability for indemnification under Section 8.2(a) unless and until the aggregate Losses with respect to claims for indemnification under Section 8.2(a) exceed an amount equal to the Threshold Amount, at which point Buyer will be subject to Liability for indemnification under Section 8.2(a) for all such Losses; provided, however, the Threshold Amount will not be applicable with respect to claims for indemnification for any inaccuracy in or breach of the representations and warranties contained in Section 6.1 and 6.2 (the “Buyer Core Representations”) ;no Party will be obligated to pay for any claims for indemnification made under this Agreement in an aggregate amount in excess of ten percent (10%) of the Base Purchase Price; provided, however, the limitation set forth in this Section 8.6(c) will not apply to Losses arising out of or based on (i) fraud or intentional misrepresentation, (ii) indemnification claims based on any inaccuracy in or breach of the Seller Core Representations or the Buyer Core Representations, as the case may be, or (iii) indemnification claims based on Sections 8.1(b), 8.1(c), 8.1(d), 8.2(b) or 8.2(c);

 

(a) each Party’s sole and exclusive remedy for any breach of this Agreement by any other Party will be as provided in this Article VIII; provided, however, nothing in this Agreement will be deemed to prohibit or limit (i) any Party’s right at any time, on or after the Closing, to seek or obtain recovery for Losses, or to limit any Party’s remedies, resulting from fraud or an intentional misrepresentation or (ii) Buyer’s right to specific performance or injunctive relief in the event of a breach or threatened breach of Section 7.6;

 

(b) in no event will any Party be entitled to recover or make a claim for (i) consequential, special or indirect damages that are remote or speculative damages and not the natural, probable and reasonably foreseeable consequence of the event that gave rise thereto or the matter for which indemnification is sought hereunder, or (ii) punitive damages, other than, in either case (i) or (ii), a claim for indemnification for such damages that arise from a Third Party Claim; and

 

(c) in the event any Losses related to a claim by a Party is covered by third party insurance, such Party agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to seek recovery from such third party insurance and no Party will be entitled to recover from another Party (and will refund amounts received up to the amount of indemnification actually received) with respect to the Losses to the extent that such Party received any insurance payment under such third party insurance with respect to such Losses (net of any deductible or reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in obtained such insurance proceeds).

 

6. Knowledge. The right to indemnification based upon the representations and warranties of either Party in this Agreement will not be affected by any Knowledge acquired (or capable of being acquired) by the other Party before the execution and delivery of this Agreement with respect to the accuracy or inaccuracy of any such representation or warranty.
