                    (d)          any claim by any Person for brokerage or finder’s fees or commissions or similar payments based upon any agreement or understanding alleged to have been made by any such Person with the Codina Parties, the Companies or any Codina Entity (or any Person acting on their behalf) in connection with any of the Transactions.

          Section 9.03     Tax Indemnification.

                    (a)          The Codina Parties hereby, jointly and severally, indemnify each Flagler Indemnified Person (which term for purposes of this Agreement shall, following the Closing, include the Companies) against and agree to hold each Flagler Indemnified Person harmless from any (v) Tax of the Company described in clause (i) of the definition of Tax related to a Pre-Closing Tax Period, (w) Tax described in clause (ii) or (iii) of the definition of Tax, (x) Tax of the Company resulting from a breach of the provisions of Section 3.13, (y) Tax of the Company resulting from a termination of any Tax Sharing Agreement pursuant to Section 5.05(d) and (z) any liabilities, costs, expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable expenses of investigation and attorneys’ fees and expenses), losses, damages, assessments, settlements or judgments arising out of or incident to the imposition, assessment or assertion of any Tax described in (v), (w), (x) or (y), (the sum of (w), (x), (y) and (z) being referred to herein as a “Tax Loss”).

                    (b)          For purposes of this Section 9.03(a), in the case of any Taxes that are imposed on a periodic basis and are payable for a Tax period that includes (but does not end on) the Closing Date, the portion of such Tax related to the portion of such Tax period ending on and including the Closing Date shall (x) in the case of any Taxes other than gross receipts, sales or use Taxes and Taxes based upon or related to income, be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire Tax period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the Tax period ending on and including the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire Tax period, and (y) in the case of any Tax based upon or related to income and any gross receipts, sales or use Tax, be deemed equal to the amount which would be payable if the relevant Tax period ended on and included the Closing Date.


                    (c)          Not later than 30 days after receipt by the Codina Parties of written notice from Flagler stating that any Tax Loss has been incurred by a Flagler Indemnified Person and the amount thereof and of the indemnity payment requested, the Codina Parties shall discharge their obligation to indemnify the Flagler Indemnified Person against such Tax Loss by paying to Flagler an amount equal to the amount of such Tax Loss. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Flagler provides the Codina Parties with written notice of a Tax Loss at least 30 days prior to the date on which the relevant Tax Loss is required to be paid by any Flagler Indemnified Person, within that 30-day period the Codina Parties shall discharge their obligation to indemnify the Flagler Indemnified Person against such Tax Loss by making payments to the relevant Taxing Authority or Flagler, as directed by Flagler, in an aggregate amount equal to the amount of such Tax Loss. The payment by a Flagler Indemnified Person of any Tax Loss shall not relieve the Codina Parties of their obligations under this Section 9.03.

                    (d)          Flagler agrees to give prompt notice to the Codina Parties of any Tax Loss or the assertion of any claim, or the commencement of any suit, action or proceeding in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder which Flagler deems to be within the ambit of this Section 9.03 (specifying with reasonable particularity the basis therefor). Flagler shall give the Codina Parties such information with respect thereto as either or them may reasonably request. Each of the Codina Parties may, at his or her or its own expense, participate in the defense of such suit, action or proceeding, it being understood that all determinations as to the ultimate conduct of such action, suit or proceeding (including the settlement thereof) shall be in Flagler’s sole discretion.

                    (e)          Any claim of any Flagler Indemnified Person under this Section 9.03 may be made and enforced by Flagler on behalf of such Flagler Indemnified Person.

                    (f)          Disputes arising under Section 9.03 and not resolved by mutual agreement within 30 days shall be resolved by the Settlement Accountants within five days of the date on which the need to choose the Settlement Accountants arises.  The Settlement Accountants shall resolve any disputed items within 30 days of having the item referred to it pursuant to such procedures as it may require. The costs, fees and expenses of the Settlement Accountants shall be borne equally by Flagler on the one hand and the Codina Parties on the other.

          Section 9.04     Indemnification by Flagler.     Effective at and after the Closing Date, Flagler will indemnify and hold harmless the Codina Parties and their respective representatives, stockholders, controlling persons and Affiliates (collectively, the “Codina Indemnified Persons”) for, and will pay to the Codina Indemnified Persons the amount of any Damages arising, directly or indirectly, from or in connection with


                    (a)          any breach of any representation or warranty made by Flagler in this Agreement or in any certificate or document delivered by Flagler pursuant to this Agreement, or

                    (b)          any breach by Flagler of any covenant or obligation of it in this Agreement.

          Section 9.05     Limitations On Amount.

                    (a)          The Codina Parties will have no liability (for indemnification or otherwise) with respect to the matters described in clauses (a) and (b) of Section 9.02 until the total of all Damages with respect to such matters exceeds $100,000 and then only to the extent all such Damages exceed in the aggregate $100,000.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the aggregate liability of the Codina Parties under this Article IX (other than Section 9.03) shall not exceed $1,500,000; provided, however that this limit will not apply to the representations and warranties in Sections 3.01, 3.02, and 3.13 or any fraudulent acts or omissions or intentional material misrepresentations on the part of the Codina Parties.

                    (b)          Flagler shall not have any liability (for indemnification or otherwise) with respect to the matters described in clauses (a) and (b) of Section 9.04 until the total of all Damages with respect to such matters exceeds $100,000 and then only to the extent all such Damages exceed in the aggregate $100,000.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the aggregate liability of Flagler under Article IX shall not exceed $1,500,000, provided, however that this limit will not apply to the representations and warranties in Section 4.02 or any fraudulent acts or omissions or intentional material misrepresentations on the part of Flagler. 

                    (c)          No indemnitor will have any liability (for indemnification or otherwise) for any Damages (i) for punitive, exemplary or special damages of any nature, (ii) for indirect or consequential damages, including damages for lost profit, lost business opportunity or damage to business reputation, or (iii) that, at the time written notice thereof is delivered to any indemnitor, are contingent, speculative or unquantified.

                    (d)          [Reserved]

                    (e)          [Reserved]

                    (f)          The amount of Damages for which the Flagler Indemnified Persons or Codina Indemnified Persons may be entitled to seek indemnification under this Agreement will be reduced by the amount of any insurance proceeds or other payment from a third party received or receivable by any Flagler Indemnified Person or Codina Indemnified Person, as applicable, with respect to such Damages and the amount of any deduction, credit or other Tax benefit that any Flagler Indemnified Person or Codina Indemnified Person is entitled to with respect to such Damages (taking into account the time at which such benefit is expected to be actually realized).  If a Flagler Indemnified Person or Codina Indemnified Person, after having received any indemnification payment pursuant to this Agreement with respect to any Damages, subsequently receives any insurance proceeds or other payment or recognizes any deduction, credit or other Tax benefit with respect to such Damages, Flagler or the Codina Parties, as the case may be, will promptly refund and pay to the Flagler Indemnified Persons or Codina Indemnified Persons, as the case may be, an amount equal to such insurance proceeds, payment or benefit.


                    (g)          Flagler will, and will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause each of the other Flagler Indemnified Persons to, use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate any Damages with respect to which it may be entitled to seek indemnification pursuant to this Agreement.  Flagler will, and will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause each of the other Flagler Indemnified Persons to, use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all insurance proceeds or other payments from third parties, and all Tax refunds or other Tax benefits, that may be available with respect to any Damages with respect to which it may be entitled to indemnification under this Agreement.

                    (h)          If any indemnitor is indemnified for any Damages pursuant to this Agreement with respect to any claim by a third party, the indemnitor shall consider in good faith a request for subrogation on the part of the indemnitee.

          Section 9.06     Procedure For Indemnification.

                    (a)          In the event that any indemnified party shall incur or suffer any Damages in respect of which indemnification may be sought hereunder by any Flagler Indemnified Person, on the one hand, or any Codina Indemnified Person, on the other hand, with respect to a matter not involving a third party claim, the indemnified party shall assert a claim for indemnification by notice to the indemnifying parties stating the nature and basis of such claim, and, if known, the amount, or a good faith estimate of the amount, of the liability arising therefrom.  Indemnification pursuant to Section 9.03 shall be made pursuant to the procedures set forth in that Section and not in this Section 9.06.

                    (b)          Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party of notice of the assertion of a claim by a third party or the commencement of any Proceeding against it, with respect to a matter for which indemnification is or may be owing pursuant to this Article IX, such indemnified party will, if a claim is to be made against an indemnifying party under such section, give notice to the indemnifying parties and shall thereafter keep the indemnifying parties informed of all other material information it receives with respect thereto; provided, however that the failure of an indemnified party to give the indemnifying parties prompt notice and such other material information as provided herein will not relieve the indemnifying parties of any of their obligations hereunder unless and then only to the extent that the indemnifying parties shall have been actually prejudiced thereby.


                    (c)          If any Proceeding referred to in Section 9.06(b) is brought against an indemnified party and it gives notice to the indemnifying party that it intends to seek indemnification, the indemnified party shall provide to the indemnifying party, as promptly as practicable after giving notice of such Proceeding, information and documentation reasonably requested by the indemnifying party to support and verify the claim asserted, unless the indemnified party has been advised by counsel that there are no reasonable grounds to assert a joint defense privilege with respect to such information and documentation.  The indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in such Proceeding and, to the extent that it wishes to assume the defense, negotiations and/or settlement of such Proceeding with counsel chosen by the indemnifying party and reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party; provided, however, that if the indemnified party files any motion, answer or other pleadings or takes any other action prior to the indemnified party’s delivery to the indemnifying party of the notice referred to in the first sentence of this Section 9.06(c) and the filing of any such motion, answer or other pleading or the taking of such action prejudices the ability of the indemnifying party to defend, negotiate and/or settle such Proceeding, the indemnifying party shall be relieved of its obligations under this Article IX but only to the extent the indemnifying party has been prejudiced thereby.  After the indemnifying party takes control of the defense, negotiation and/or settlement of any such Proceeding, the indemnified party shall have the right to participate therein, at its own expense and with counsel of its own choosing and the indemnifying party will not be liable to the indemnified party under this Article IX  for any fees of such counsel or any other expenses with respect to the defense of such Proceeding, in each case subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense of such Proceeding, other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided, however, that the indemnifying party shall pay for the costs and expenses of such separate counsel if, in the good faith judgment of the indemnified party based upon the advice of counsel, representation of both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party would be inappropriate under the relevant standards of professional conduct.  The parties shall cooperate and render such assistance as may reasonably be requested in order to insure the proper and adequate defense of any such Proceeding, which assistance shall include, without limitation, making appropriate personnel reasonably available for any discovery or trial.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if (i) the indemnifying party fails or refuses to undertake the defense of any such Proceeding within a reasonable period of time following receipt of the notice referred to in the first sentence of this Section 9.06(c) or disputes its liability to the indemnified party under this Article IX with respect to such Proceeding, (ii) the indemnifying party fails to diligently defend and contest such Proceeding with counsel reasonably acceptable to the indemnifying party, or (iii) the indemnified party irrevocably waives its right to indemnity hereunder with respect to such Proceeding, then the indemnified party shall have the right to take control of the defense, negotiation and/or settlement of such Proceeding at, in the case of clauses (i) and (ii) above, the indemnifying party’s expense.  If the indemnifying party assumes the defense of a Proceeding, (i) it will be conclusively established for purposes of this Agreement that the claims made in that Proceeding are within the scope of and subject to indemnification; (ii) no compromise or settlement of such claims  may be effected by the indemnifying party without the indemnified party’s consent unless (A) there is no finding or admission of any violation of Law or any violation of the rights of any Person and no effect on any other claims that may be made against the indemnified party, and (B) the sole relief provided is monetary damages that are paid in full by the indemnifying party; and (iii) the indemnified party will have no liability with respect to any compromise or settlement of such claims effected without its consent.


                    (d)          Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an indemnified party determines in good faith that there is a reasonable probability that a Proceeding may adversely affect it or its affiliates other than as a result of monetary damages for which it would be entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, the indemnified party may, by notice to the indemnifying party, assume the exclusive right to defend, compromise, or settle such Proceeding, but the indemnifying party will not be bound by any determination of a Proceeding so defended or any compromise or settlement effected without its consent (which may not be unreasonably withheld).

                    (e)          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein (except for matters set forth in Section 9.06(b)) neither the indemnifying party nor the indemnified party shall settle or compromise any Proceeding without the consent of the other, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, however, that any settlement or compromise shall include an unconditional release of the indemnified party from all liabilities or obligations relating to the Proceeding and provides only for the payment of monetary damages solely by the indemnifying party without any obligations on the part of the indemnified party.

          Section 9.07     Exclusivity.  Except as specifically set forth in this Agreement, effective as of the Closing, each party hereto waives any rights and claims it may have against any other party and any of their Affiliates, whether in law or in equity, relating to the transactions contemplated hereby.  The rights and claims waived by the parties include, without limitation, claims for contribution or other rights of recovery arising out of or relating to any Environmental Law, claims for breach of contract, breach of representation or warranty, negligent misrepresentation and all other claims of breach of duty.  After the Closing, the indemnification provisions of this Agreement shall provide the exclusive remedy to the parties for all misrepresentation, breach of warranty, covenant or other agreement or other claim arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.  Notwithstanding, the foregoing provisions of this Section 9.07 shall not apply to any rights or claims in respect of actions for injunctive relief, fraud, or intentional material misrepresentation.
