(c)                If any objections raised by the Buyer or the Seller are not resolved by Agreed Adjustments within the thirty (30) day period following the original thirty (30) day objection period provided for in Sections 3.5(a) and 3.5(b) above, then the Buyer and the Seller shall submit the objections that are then unresolved to the Accounting Firm for purposes of resolving the dispute. The Accounting Firm will be provided with a brief summary of the dispute by both the Buyer and the Seller, and asked to provide its written estimate of the fees and expenses that it believes will be charged by it for resolving the dispute. If the estimated fees and expenses are less than the amount in dispute between the parties, then the Accounting Firm will be directed to proceed with resolving the unresolved objections (based solely on the presentations by the Buyer and by the Seller as to whether any disputed matter had been determined in a manner consistent with the Agreed Accounting Principles) as promptly as reasonably practicable and to deliver written notice to the Buyer and the Seller setting forth its resolution of the disputed matters. Each Preliminary Closing Payment Computation Schedule and Preliminary Closing Payment, after giving effect to any Agreed Adjustments and to the resolution of disputed matters by the Accounting Firm, shall be final and binding as the Final Closing Payment Computation Schedule and the Closing Payment, respectively, for purposes of this Agreement. If the Accounting Firm's estimated fees and expenses exceed the amount that is in dispute hereunder, then the Buyer and the Seller will divide the amount in dispute in half and adjust the Closing Payment for each applicable Closing accordingly.

(d)               The parties hereto shall make available to the Buyer, the Seller and, if applicable, the Accounting Firm, such books, records and other information (including work papers) as any of the foregoing reasonably may request to prepare or review any Preliminary Closing Payment Computation Schedule or any matters related thereto submitted to the Accounting Firm.

3.6              Adjustment of Payment in Respect of Closing Payment. Within five (5) days after the final determination of all Closing Payments:

(a)                if the aggregate Closing Payments as determined by the Final Closing Payment Computation Schedule exceeds the aggregate Preliminary Closing Payments, the Buyer shall pay to the Seller by wire transfer of immediately available funds an amount equal to the excess of (A) the aggregate Closing Payments over (B) the aggregate Preliminary Closing Payments, plus interest on such excess from the Final Closing Date to the date of payment at the Agreed Rate; or

(b)               if the aggregate Preliminary Closing Payment exceeds the aggregate Closing Payments as determined by the Final Closing Payment Computation Schedule, the Seller shall pay to the Buyer by wire transfer of immediately available funds an amount equal to the excess of (A) the aggregate Preliminary Closing Payments over (B) the aggregate Closing Payments, plus interest on such excess from the Final Closing Date to the date of payment at the Agreed Rate.

12
 

3.7              Earn-Out Statements and Seller Right to Review.

(a)                As additional consideration and a component of the Purchase Price, the Seller shall be entitled to receive, and the Buyer shall pay to Seller an amount equal to 50% of the factoring fee and interest income earned by Buyer from each Purchased Portfolio as determined in accordance with the Agreed Accounting Principles (the “Earn-Out Payment”) for the period beginning on the applicable Closing Date and ending twelve (12) months thereafter (the “Earn-Out Period”) subject to any offsets permitted by Section 3.8. For the avoidance of doubt, the factoring fee and interest income used to calculate the amount of the Earn-Out Payment shall specifically exclude (i) administrative or servicing fees, including without limitation, early termination fees, wire fees, treasury management, and similar fees, and (ii) any fees or income related to any accounts the Customer has with Buyer that were originated prior to the Initial Closing Date and are unrelated to any Portfolio Account in the Purchased Portfolio.

(b)               Buyer shall, within fifteen (15) days after the end of each calendar month during the Earn-Out Period, (i) prepare and deliver to Seller a monthly statement of the Earn-Out Payment due for such calendar month (each an “Earn-Out Statement”) and (ii) pay to Seller the Earn-Out Payment. Buyer shall provide Seller with reasonable access to the relevant books and records of Buyer relating to Buyer’s calculation of each monthly Earn-Out Payment and to Buyer’s relevant personnel as Seller may reasonably request for the purpose of reviewing such calculations. If after the date that is thirty (30) days after Seller has received an Earn-Out Statement for the last full or partial calendar month of the Earn-Out Period (the “Review Period”) Seller objects to Buyer’s determination of the calculation of a monthly Earn-Out Payment, Seller shall notify Buyer of such objection by delivering to Buyer a written statement setting forth Seller’s objections in reasonable detail. To the extent Seller fails to deliver any objections prior the expiration of the Review Period, the amount of any Earn-Out Payment (or any determination that none is payable) contained in the Earn-Out Statement shall be deemed to have been accepted by Seller. If Seller delivers objections before the expiration of the Review Period, Buyer and Seller shall negotiate in good faith to resolve the objections stated therein within thirty (30) days after the date of delivery to Buyer of such objections, and, if the same are so resolved within such period, the determination of the amount for any Earn-Out Payment contained in such Earn-Out Statement, with such changes as are agreed to in writing between Buyer and Seller, shall be final and binding on the Parties.

(c)                If Buyer and Seller fail within the 30 day resolution period to reach an agreement with respect to all of the objections set forth in any notice of objections by Seller, then the objections of Seller that remain unresolved, to the extent such unresolved matters are of an accounting nature, (the “Outstanding Objections”) shall be submitted for resolution to the Accounting Firm in accordance with the procedures outlined in Section 3.5(c). Upon the Accounting Firm’s final determination of the amount of an Earn-Out Payment the parties shall pay such amounts as applicable to effect such final determination.

3.8              Off-Sets. Buyer shall be entitled to offset any amounts owed by Seller against any payments made to Seller (other than any Closing Payment) that are attributable to any period of time after the Closing Date.

(a)                Subsequent to the Signing Date and other than as expressly permitted in accordance with Section 7.4(c), Seller shall not have the right to withdraw any Portfolio Accounts from the Portfolio; provided however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, if, prior to the sale of a Portfolio Account to the Buyer in accordance with the terms hereof, such Portfolio Account is terminated by either the Seller or its Customer and all, or substantially all, indebtedness and obligations owing to the Seller in regard thereto are paid in full, then such Portfolio Account shall be withdrawn from the Portfolio by the Seller, with a corresponding adjustment of the Purchase Price.

23
 

(b)               Prior to any Closing, if Buyer, in its good faith discretion, determines that any Portfolio Account breaches or is inconsistent with any of Seller’s representations and warranties in this Agreement, Buyer may upon written notice to Seller prior to the relevant Closing withdraw such Portfolio Account from the Portfolio and elect not to purchase such Portfolio Account. If Buyer elects to withdraw a Portfolio Account for any one Closing and prior to the final Closing, Buyer shall have the right until the final Closing to elect to include such withdrawn Portfolio Account in a subsequent Closing.

(c)                Prior to each Closing, Buyer and Seller shall each use their respective reasonable and good faith efforts to notify the other Party as soon as reasonably practicable after such Party first has Knowledge of any information or circumstance that the Seller may then be in breach of any of its representations or warranties in this Agreement or in any Seller Ancillary Agreement, or that at any Closing it will be in breach thereof, which breach would give rise to a claim by the Buyer against the Seller for indemnification under Section 11.1 or would give rise to a right by the Buyer to terminate this Agreement under Article XII. In the event of such notice, Buyer may elect to waive such breach in writing and any affected Portfolio Accounts shall not be withdrawn from the Portfolio. If such breach is not waived by the earlier to occur of (i) ten (10) days after receipt of such notice and (ii) the applicable Cut-off Time, Seller or Buyer may, upon prior written notice to the other Party, withdraw any affected Portfolio Account from the relevant Closing. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 7.4(c), Buyer’s failure to provide notice to Seller under this Section 7.4(c) shall not in any way limit Buyer’s rights under this Agreement with respect to any Portfolio Account purchased by Buyer, including without limitation, rights to indemnification or repurchase pursuant to Article XI.

ARTICLE VIII

(c)                Nothing herein shall be construed as obligating the Seller in any way to pay any taxes which are the liability of a Customer or which shall be due with respect to any Portfolio Collateral.

8.3              Non-Compete and Non-Solicitation.

(a)                For thirty-six (36) months after the Final Closing Date (the “Restricted Period”), the Seller shall not, and shall not permit any of its Affiliates to, directly or indirectly (i) engage or assist in factoring or otherwise financing the Accounts of any Person (whether or not a Customer), providing any asset-based loan or other credit facility to any Customer, refinancing Portfolio Accounts or originating new Portfolio Accounts, or otherwise creating, selling, or profiting from commercial lending or working capital financial products in direct competition to Buyer, together and all of the foregoing, the “Restricted Business” anywhere in the United States, (ii) have an interest in any Person that engages directly or indirectly in any Restricted Business anywhere in the United States in any capacity, including as a partner, owner, member, employee, principal, agent, trustee or consultant or (iii) intentionally interfere in any material respect with the business relationships (whether formed prior to or after the date of this Agreement) of Buyer.

26
 

(d)               The Seller acknowledges that a breach or threatened breach of this Section 8.3 would give rise to irreparable harm to Buyer for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy, and hereby agrees that in the event of a breach or a threatened breach by Seller or its Affiliates of any such obligations, Buyer shall, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies that may be available to them in respect of such breach, be entitled to equitable relief, including a temporary restraining order, an injunction, specific performance and any other relief that may be available from a court of competent jurisdiction (without any requirement to post bond).

(e)                The Seller acknowledges that the restrictions contained in this Section 8.3 are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate interests of Buyer and constitute a material inducement to each of them to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.  In the event that any covenant contained in this Section 8.3 should ever be adjudicated to exceed the time, geographic, product or service, or other limitations permitted by applicable law in any jurisdiction, then the parties hereto hereby agree to amend this Agreement to cause such unenforceable provision (or any portion thereof) to be enforceable and enforced, in such jurisdiction to the maximum time, geographic, product or service, or other limitations permitted by applicable Law. The covenants contained in this Section 8.3 and each provision hereof are severable and separate and distinct covenants and provisions.  The invalidity or unenforceability of any such covenant or provision, or any part thereof, as written, shall not invalidate or render unenforceable the remaining covenants or provisions hereof, and any such invalidity or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such covenant or provision in any other jurisdiction.

(f)                Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, nothing herein shall be deemed to prohibit, inhibit, limit or impair Seller's rights to collect the Retained Accounts, including, without limitation, the right to use any Intellectual Property Assets in connection therewith, and Buyer hereby grants Seller a limited license to use the Intellectual Property Assets for such purpose.

From and after the Initial Closing Date and subject to the limitations of this Article XI, the Buyer agrees to indemnify and hold the Seller and its Affiliates, their respective successors and assigns, and in each such case their respective present or former directors, officers, employees and agents ("Seller Indemnified Parties") harmless from and against any and all Losses and Expenses at any time incurred by any Seller Indemnified Party in connection with, resulting from, related to or arising from:

(d)               the operation or administration of any Purchased Portfolio after the Closing Date applicable thereto.

11.3          Notice of Claims. Promptly upon the sooner to occur of (a) a party's acquisition of knowledge of facts or circumstances which could serve as the basis for a claim under this Article XI or (b) receipt of notice of any claim, demand or assessment or the commencement of any suit, action, arbitration or proceeding in respect of which indemnity may be sought on account of the indemnity agreement contained in this Article XI, the party seeking indemnification (the "Indemnified Party") shall give written notice to the party obligated to provide indemnification to such Indemnified Party (the "Indemnifying Party") describing in reasonable detail the facts giving rise to any claim for indemnification hereunder and a reference to the provision of this Agreement or any other agreement, document or instrument executed hereunder or in connection herewith upon which such claim is based and within sufficient time to respond to such claim or answer or otherwise plea in such action; provided that failure to give such notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder except to the extent it shall have been materially prejudiced by such failure.

11.4          Third Party Claims. In the event that any Person not a party to this Agreement shall make any demand or claim or file or threaten to file any lawsuit, which demand, claim or lawsuit may result in any Losses or Expenses to one party hereto of the kind for which such party is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article XI, then, after written notice is provided by the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party shall have the option, at its Expense, to provide legal counsel for the Indemnified Party (such counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party) to defend any such demand, claim or lawsuit. The Indemnifying Party agrees to compensate or reimburse the Indemnified Party for such reasonable legal fees as and when they are incurred. In effecting the settlement of any such demand, claim or lawsuit, an Indemnified Party shall act in good faith, shall consult with the Indemnifying Party and shall enter into only such settlement as the Indemnifying Party shall approve, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld (the Indemnifying Party's approval will be implied if it does not respond within ten (10) calendar days of its receipt of the notice of such settlement offer). Each party shall reasonably cooperate with the other party in connection with the defense of any such claim including, without limitation, by making personnel available for interviews and as witnesses, providing books, records, files and other documents or materials relevant to such claim, designating an internal point of contact to assist with and coordinate discovery requests and otherwise assist with the claim, and granting such authorizations or limited powers of attorney, or executing documents, agreements, orders or other instruments as such party may reasonably consider necessary, desirable or required in connection with the defense of any such claim.

30
 

In the event of any third party demand, claim, lawsuit or threat of lawsuit for which the Seller shall be the Indemnifying Party, the Seller reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to repurchase the Purchased Asset(s) relating to the Portfolio Account which are the subject of the demand, claim or lawsuit. The Seller shall notify the Buyer of the Seller's intention to repurchase the Purchased Asset(s) at the Seller's expense. At the closing of any such repurchase, the Seller shall pay to the Buyer as the repurchase price an amount equal to the sum of the Net Funds Employed of such Portfolio Account on the date of repurchase, plus any premium paid by Buyer on the original Closing Date by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account as the Buyer shall designate in writing to the Seller, and the Buyer shall convey to the Seller all of the Buyer's right, title and interest in and to such repurchased Purchased Asset(s) and the assignment and transfer documents relating to such Purchased Asset(s). The conveyance documents executed by the Buyer reconveying the Purchased Asset(s) to the Seller shall contain such representations and warranties by the Buyer in favor of the Seller concerning the Purchased Asset(s) which may be reasonably requested by the Seller to confirm, inter alia, that the Buyer shall have unencumbered title to the Purchased Asset(s) being reconveyed, the Buyer shall have the ability and authority to reconvey the Purchased Asset(s), the Buyer's compliance with Requirements of Law as in effect on the date of reconveyance, and the Buyer's compliance with its obligations under the Assignment and Assumption Agreement during its ownership of the Purchased Asset(s).

No amounts paid by the Seller to repurchase any Purchased Assets hereunder shall be applied to the threshold amount for indemnification claims against the Seller provided for in Section 11.7 below.

 

 

11.5          General. In addition, the Indemnified Party shall be obligated in connection with any claim for indemnification under this Article XI to use all commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate all Losses and Expenses upon and after becoming aware of any event which could reasonably be expected to give rise to such Losses and Expenses. No party shall be entitled to bring or maintain an indemnification claim with respect to any inaccuracy or breach of any representation or warranty of any other party contained in this Agreement, or with respect to any failure by any other party to perform or observe any covenant, agreement or condition required by this Agreement, of which such party was aware or had knowledge on or prior to the Initial Closing Date.

11.6          Survival of Representations and Warranties; Bar Date for Indemnification Claims. All representations, warranties, covenants and obligations in this Agreement and any other agreement, document or certificate delivered pursuant to this Agreement (other than the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 5.4 and 5.5) will survive the Closings for a period ending on the eighteen (18) month anniversary of the Final Closing Date, and no claim for indemnification for any purpose under this Agreement shall be made after such date (unless notice of such claim or the basis for such claim is delivered by a party hereto in strict compliance with this Article XI on or before the date that is the eighteen (18) month anniversary after the Final Closing Date). The representations and warranties set forth in Sections 5.4 and 5.5 shall survive the Closings for a period ending on the twelve (12) month anniversary of the Final Closing Date, and no claim for indemnification with respect such representations and warranties shall be made after such date (unless notice of such claim or the basis for such claim is delivered by a party hereto in strict compliance with this Article XI on or before the date that is the twelve (12) month anniversary after the Final Closing Date).

31
 

11.7          Limitations on Indemnification by Seller. The Seller will have no liability with respect to the matters described in Section 11.1 until the total of all Losses and Expenses with respect to such matters exceeds $100,000 (the "Basket"), at which point the Seller will be obligated to indemnify the Buyer Indemnified Parties for all Losses and Expenses without regard to the Basket. The Seller's maximum aggregate liability with respect to the matters described in Section 11.1 will be limited to the Purchase Price.

11.8          Payment of Claims. All claims for indemnity under this Article XI shall be paid on demand in immediately available funds in United States Dollars after such claim and the liability for Losses and Expenses thereunder have been finally determined. A claim, and the liability for Losses and Expenses thereunder, shall be deemed to be “finally determined” for purposes of this section when the parties have so determined by mutual agreement or, if disputed, when a final order of a court of competent jurisdiction or a final order of an arbitrator having competent jurisdiction, if one shall have been selected by the parties, has been entered. Any indemnification payments made by any Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to be and treated for all purposes, including, without limitation, tax purposes, as adjustments to the Purchase Price. The liability of the Indemnifying Party with respect to any indemnification claim shall be reduced by the tax benefit actually realized and any insurance proceeds received by the Indemnified Party as a result of any Losses or Expenses upon which such indemnification claim is based.

11.9          Limited Remedies. If the Closings occur, except for remedies based upon fraud and except for equitable remedies, the remedies and limitations provided in this Article XI of this Agreement constitute the sole and exclusive remedies for recovery against the Indemnifying Party based upon the inaccuracy, untruth, incompleteness or breach of any representation or warranty of any Indemnifying Party contained herein or in any certificate, Schedule or Exhibit furnished by any Indemnifying Party in connection herewith, or based upon the failure of any Indemnifying Party to perform any covenant, agreement or undertaking required by the terms hereof to be performed by such Indemnifying Party. The foregoing shall not in any manner limit (a) any claims by either party with respect to the computation or payment of the Purchase Price pursuant to Sections 3.1 through 3.7 for any reason, any such claims to be subject exclusively to the provisions of Sections 3.1 through 3.7 or (b) any claims by the Seller pursuant to Section 8.1, any such claim to be subject exclusively to the provisions of Section 8.1.

11.10      Subrogation. Upon payment in full of any indemnification claim or the payment of any judgment or settlement with respect to a third party claim under this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment to the rights of the Indemnified Party against any person or entity with respect to the subject matter of such indemnification claim or third party claim.

32

13.5          Successors and Assigns. The rights of any party under this Agreement shall not be assignable by such party hereto prior to the Final Closing Date without the written consent of the other party (except that if the Seller merges with or consolidates into an Affiliate of the Seller, or an Affiliate of the Seller acquires the stock or assets of the Seller, no consent thereto of the Buyer shall be required). Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will apply to, be binding in all respects upon, and inure to the benefit of the successors and permitted assigns of the parties. Nothing expressed or referred to in this Agreement will be construed to give any Person other than the parties to this Agreement any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or with respect to this Agreement or any provision of this Agreement. This Agreement and all of its provisions and conditions are for the sole and exclusive benefit of the parties to this Agreement and their permitted successors and assigns. Following the Final Closing Date, either party may assign any of its rights hereunder, but no such assignment shall relieve it of its obligations hereunder.

13.6          Access to Records after Closing.

(a)                The Buyer agrees that on and after each applicable Closing Date it will permit the Seller and its representatives, during normal business hours and on reasonable prior notice and without unreasonably interfering with the business of the Buyer, to have access to and to examine and take copies of all applicable Files, whether with respect to transactions or events occurring prior to the applicable Closing Date or to transactions or events occurring subsequent to the applicable Closing Date which arise out of transactions or events occurring prior to or after such Closing Date, other than those documents or materials or work product in any of the Files reasonably determined by Buyer to constitute an attorney-client privileged communication. The Seller and the Buyer agree that any such access to the Files shall be granted only in the event that the Seller or an Affiliate of the Seller is named as a party in, or is threatened with, any litigation or similar proceeding in connection with any Purchased Asset or to the extent that the Seller may require such access in connection with any Tax, regulatory, accounting, corporate or similar matter relating to any Purchased Asset or its transfer hereunder.

(b)               The Buyer agrees that it shall preserve and keep the Files for a period at least equal to the period required by the Buyer's record retention policy for similar materials. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, the Buyer may destroy any or all of the Files without notice to the Seller at any time after the seventh (7th) anniversary of the Signing Date.

36
 

(c)                The Seller agrees that on and after the applicable Closing Date it will permit the Buyer and its representatives, during normal business hours and on reasonable prior notice and without unreasonably interfering with the business of the Seller, to have access to electronically-stored data or other computerized records of the Seller (other than Excluded Materials) that relate exclusively to the applicable Portfolio Accounts. The Seller agrees that it shall preserve and keep such electronically-stored data and computerized records relating exclusively to the Portfolio Accounts (other than Excluded Materials) for a period at least equal to the period required by the Seller's record retention policy for similar materials.

(d)               Each party agrees that its access to books and records of the other party pursuant to this Section 13.6 shall be subject to the confidentiality provisions of Section 13.1.

13.7          Entire Agreement; Exhibits and Schedules; Amendments. This Agreement and the Exhibits and Schedules referred to herein and the other Purchase Documents contain the entire understanding and agreement of the parties hereto with regard to the subject matter contained herein or therein, and supersede all prior agreements, inducements, understandings, disclosures, correspondence, offering memoranda or letters of intent between or among any of the parties hereto, whether expressed or implied, oral or written, regarding the same subject matter. Each of the Exhibits and Schedules attached hereto are incorporated into this Agreement and by this reference made a part hereof. This Agreement shall not be amended, modified or supplemented except by a written instrument signed by an authorized representative of each of the parties hereto.

13.8          Interpretation. Article titles and section headings are inserted for convenience of reference only and are not intended to be a part of or to affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. The Schedules and Exhibits referred to herein shall be construed with and as an integral part of this Agreement to the same extent as if they were set forth verbatim herein. Disclosure of any fact or item in any Schedule hereto referenced by a particular section in this Agreement shall be deemed to have been disclosed with respect to every other section in this Agreement.

13.9          Waivers. Any term or provision of this Agreement may be waived, or the time for its performance may be extended, by the party or parties entitled to the benefit thereof. Any such waiver shall be validly and sufficiently authorized for the purposes of this Agreement if, as to any party, it is authorized in writing by an authorized representative of such party. The failure of any party hereto to enforce at any time any provision of this Agreement shall not be construed to be a waiver of such provision, nor in any way to affect the validity of this Agreement or any part hereof or the right of any party thereafter to enforce each and every such provision. No waiver of any breach of this Agreement shall be held to constitute a waiver of any other or subsequent breach.

37
 

13.10      Expenses.

(a)                Each party hereto will pay all costs and expenses incident to its negotiation and preparation of this Agreement and to its performance and compliance with all agreements and conditions contained herein on its part to be performed or complied with, including the fees, expenses and disbursements of its counsel and accountants.

(b)               If the parties submit any matter involving the determination of the Purchase Price to an Accounting Firm, the fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be paid by the parties hereto, with the responsibility of each party for payment of final fees and expenses being reduced by a percentage that is equal to the amount ultimately awarded by the Accounting Firm to that party divided by the total amount in dispute between the parties.

(c)                The Buyer will pay for all shipping and transportation costs for the Files to such location as directed by Buyer with respect to each Closing.

13.11      Partial Invalidity. Wherever possible, each provision hereof shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but in case any one or more of the provisions contained herein shall, for any reason, be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent, but only to the extent, of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without invalidating the remainder of such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision or any other provisions hereof, unless such a construction would be unreasonable.

13.12      Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be considered an original instrument, but all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement, and shall become binding when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties hereto and delivered to the Seller and the Buyer.

13.13      Further Assurances. The parties agree (a) to furnish upon request to each other such further information, (b) to execute and deliver to each other such other documents and (c) to do such other acts and things, all as the other party may reasonably request for the purpose of carrying out the intent of this Agreement and the documents referred to in this Agreement.

13.14      Dispute Resolution. In the event of any dispute or controversy between the parties hereto, arising out of or in connection with the execution, interpretation and performance of this Agreement (including the validity, scope and enforceability of this Section 13.14, but excluding any dispute as to the calculation of the Purchase Price which shall be subject exclusively to the provisions of Article III) or any documents or instruments relating hereto, the parties shall use their reasonable efforts to settle such dispute or controversy amicably by negotiation for a period of thirty (30) days, commencing upon the receipt of written demand for negotiation setting forth the basis of the dispute. After the expiration of the thirty (30) day negotiation period, either party may commence judicial action to resolve such dispute as set forth below. The provisions of this Section 13.14 shall not apply to the extent that either party hereto reasonably believes that it needs to seek injunctive relief in a judicial proceeding in order to avoid irreparable harm.

38
 

13.15      Jurisdiction; Governing Law; Waiver of Jury Trial.

(a)                Any controversy or claim between or among the parties, arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any agreements or instruments relating hereto, including any claim based on or arising from an alleged tort (but excluding any dispute as to the calculation of the Purchase Price which shall be subject exclusively to the provisions of Article III), shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal courts sitting in Salt Lake City, Utah or, if such courts do not have jurisdiction, in the state courts of Utah sitting in Salt Lake City, Utah, and each of the parties consents to the jurisdiction of such courts (and of the appropriate appellate courts) in any such action or proceeding and waives any objection to venue laid therein. Any such claim or controversy shall be governed by the substantive laws of the state of Utah, conflicts of laws principles notwithstanding.

(b)               Each party hereto hereby waives trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim arising out of or in any way concerned with this Agreement or any of the agreements, instruments or documents contemplated hereby. No party hereto, nor any assignee or successor of any party hereto shall seek a jury trial in any lawsuit, proceeding, counterclaim or any other litigation procedure based upon, or arising out of, this Agreement or any of the agreements, instruments or documents contemplated hereby. No party hereto will seek to consolidate any such action, in which a jury trial has been waived, with any other action in which a jury trial cannot be or has not been waived. The provisions of this Section 13.15 have been fully discussed by the parties hereto, and the provisions shall be subject to no exceptions. No party hereto has in any way agreed with or represented to any other party that the provisions of this Section 13.15 will not be fully enforced in all instances.

13.16      Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws (as opposed to the conflicts of laws provisions) of the State of Utah.

13.17      Termination of Rediscount Facility Agreement.   The Buyer hereby agrees that, upon its receipt of full repayment of all outstanding amounts owed by Seller to Buyer under the Rediscount Facility Agreement and other Obligations (as defined in Section 1 of the Rediscount Facility Agreement) (other than contingent indemnification obligations for which no claim has been made), on and with effect from such date, without any further action by it or any other person, (a) all obligations of the Seller with respect to the Rediscount Facility Agreement shall be paid and satisfied in full, (b) the Rediscount Facility Agreement (and any agreements, documents or instruments relating thereto, including, without limitation, the Continuing Guaranty and Waivers granted by Anchor Funding Services, Inc. and Anchor Trade Finance, LLC and the Validity Warranties executed by Brad Bernstein and Morry Rubin) shall be terminated and have no further force and effect and (c) any liens or encumbrances granted by the Seller to secure its obligations under the Rediscount Facility Agreement shall be completely terminated and released.  The Buyer hereby authorizes the Seller and its counsel, K&L Gates LLP, to prepare and file any and all releases and UCC termination statements as are necessary to terminate all lien filings of record associated with the Rediscount Facility Agreement.
