obligation hereunder with respect to any breach set forth in clause (i) or clause (ii) above unless the Buyer Indemnified Parties have made a claim for indemnification with respect to such breach pursuant to Section 9.2(c) with respect to a breach of a representation or warranty, prior to the expiration of such representation or warranty as set forth in Section 9.1; and (z) the sole recourse of any Buyer Indemnified Party for any and all Damages arising out of, resulting from or incident to matters set forth in Section 3.14 and Section 5.8 shall be controlled by Section 9.3.

(b) By Buyer. From and after the Closing, Buyer shall indemnify, defend, save and hold harmless Seller and its Affiliates and each of the foregoing’s respective officers, directors, employees and agents (collectively, the “Seller Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all Damages arising out of, resulting from or incident to (i) the breach of any representation or warranty made by Buyer in ARTICLE IV, or (ii) the breach of any covenant or agreement by Buyer (other than any covenant or agreement contained in Section 5.8, which is addressed in Section 9.3) contained in and relating specifically to this Agreement; provided, that, (y) Buyer shall not have any obligation hereunder with respect to any breach set forth in clause (i) or clause (ii) above unless the Seller Indemnified Parties have made a claim for indemnification with respect to such breach pursuant to Section 9.2(c) with respect to a breach of a representation or warranty, prior to the expiration of such representation or warranty as set forth in Section 9.1; and (z) the sole recourse of any Seller Indemnified Party for any and all Damages arising out of, resulting from or incident to matters set forth in Section 5.8 shall be controlled by Section 9.3.

(c) Procedure. Any Party seeking indemnification under this Section 9.2 or under Section 9.3 (an “Indemnified Party”) shall give the Party from whom indemnification is being sought (an “Indemnifying Party”) notice of any matter which such Indemnified Party has determined has given or could give rise to a right of indemnification under this Agreement as soon as practicable after the Party entitled to indemnification becomes aware of any fact, condition or event which may give rise to Damages for which indemnification may be sought under this Section 9.2 or under Section 9.3. The liability of an Indemnifying Party under this Section 9.2 or under Section 9.3 with respect to Damages arising from claims of any third party which are subject to the indemnification provided for in this Section 9.2 or under Section 9.3 (“Third Party Claims”) shall be governed by and contingent upon the following additional terms and conditions (except as otherwise provided in Section 9.3(d) with respect to any Tax Claim): if an Indemnified Party shall receive notice of any Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party notice of such Third Party Claim within twenty (20) days of the receipt by the Indemnified Party of such notice; provided, that, the failure to provide such notice shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under this Section 9.2 or under Section 9.3, except to the extent the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure.

Indemnified Party shall be entitled to retain its own counsel, at the expense of the Indemnifying Party; provided, further, that, the Indemnifying Party shall not be obligated to pay the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one separate counsel for all Indemnified Parties, taken together (except to the extent that local counsel is necessary or advisable for the conduct of such action or proceeding, in which case the Indemnifying Party shall also pay the reasonable fees and expenses of one such local counsel). If the Indemnifying Party shall not assume the defense of any Third Party Claim or litigation resulting therefrom, the Indemnified Party may defend against such claim or litigation in such manner as it may deem appropriate and may settle such claim or litigation on such terms as it may deem appropriate; provided, that, in settling any action in respect of which indemnification is payable under this ARTICLE IX, it shall act reasonably and in good faith. In the event the Indemnifying Party exercises the right to undertake any such defense against any such Third Party Claim as provided above, the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in such defense and make available to the Indemnifying Party, all witnesses, pertinent records, materials and information in the Indemnified Party’s possession or under the Indemnified Party’s control relating thereto as is reasonably required by the Indemnifying Party. Similarly, in the event the Indemnified Party is, directly or indirectly, conducting the defense against any such Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall cooperate with the Indemnified Party in such defense and make available to the Indemnified Party, all such witnesses, records, materials and information in the Indemnifying Party’s possession or under the Indemnifying Party’s control relating thereto as is reasonably required by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall not, without the written consent of the Indemnified Party, (i) settle or compromise any Third Party Claim or consent to the entry of any judgment which does not include an unconditional written release by the claimant or plaintiff of the Indemnified Party from all liability in respect of such Third Party Claim or (ii) settle or compromise any Third Party Claim if the settlement imposes equitable remedies or material obligations on the Indemnified Party other than financial obligations for which such Indemnified Party will be indemnified hereunder. No Third Party Claim which is being defended in good faith by the Indemnifying Party in accordance with the terms of this Agreement shall be settled or compromised by the Indemnified Party without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party.

(d) Definition of Damages. The term “Damages” means any and all costs, losses, Taxes, liabilities, obligations, damages, lawsuits, deficiencies, claims, demands and expenses (whether or not arising out of Third Party Claims), including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and amounts paid in investigation, defense or settlement of any of the foregoing. The calculation of Damages recoverable by an Indemnified Party under this Agreement shall take into account the adjustments and limitations set forth in Section 9.4. For purposes of calculating the amount of any Damages incurred by any Indemnified Party arising out of or resulting from any breach of any representation or warranty (but not for purposes of determining whether a breach of any representation or warranty has occurred), references to any materiality or Material Adverse Effect qualifications or limitations or the like shall be disregarded. NOTWITHSTANDING ANY OTHER PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT TO THE CONTRARY, NO PARTY SHALL BE REQUIRED TO INDEMNIFY OR HOLD HARMLESS ANY OTHER PARTY OR OTHERWISE COMPENSATE ANY OTHER PARTY FOR DAMAGE WITH RESPECT TO MENTAL OR EMOTIONAL

(ii) any and all Damages arising out of, resulting from or incident to any breach by Seller of any covenant contained in Section 5.8, provided, that, Seller shall not have any obligation hereunder with respect to any such breach unless the Buyer Indemnified Parties have made a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Section 9.3 with respect to such breach.

(c) If a claim shall be made by any Tax Authority with respect to Taxes, which, if successful, might result in an indemnity payment to a party pursuant to this Section 9.3 (a “Tax Claim”), the provisions set forth in Section 9.2(c) (subject to Section 9.3(d)) shall apply.

Proceedings relating to any Tax Claim for a Straddle Period shall be governed under the provisions set forth in Section 9.2(c). Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no Party shall agree to settle or compromise, or cause to be settled or compromised, any Tax Claim if such settlement or compromise would adversely affect the other Party or its Affiliates, without such other Party’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

10.12 Waiver.

(a) To the extent permitted by applicable Law: (i) no claim or right arising out of this Agreement or the documents referred to in this Agreement can be discharged by one Party, in whole or in part, by a waiver or renunciation of the claim or right unless in writing signed by the other Party against whom enforcement of any such waiver or renunciation is sought; (ii) no waiver that may be given by a Party will be applicable except in the specific instance for which it is given; and (iii) no notice to or demand on one Party will be deemed to be a waiver of any obligation of such Party or of the right of the Party giving such notice or demand to take further action without notice or demand as provided in this Agreement or the documents referred to in this Agreement.

(b) The rights and remedies of the Parties are cumulative and not alternative. Except where a specific period for action or inaction is provided in this Agreement, neither the failure nor any delay on the part of any Party in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Agreement or the documents referred to in this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any waiver on the part of any Party of any such right, power or privilege, nor any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other such right, power or privilege. The failure of a Party to exercise any right conferred herein within the time required shall cause such right to terminate with respect to the transaction or circumstances giving rise to such right, but not to any such right arising as a result of any other transactions or circumstances. Any extension of time or other indulgence granted to any Party will not otherwise alter or affect any power, remedy or right with respect to any other Party, or the obligations of the Party to whom such extension or indulgence is granted.

10.13 Severability. In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall, for any reason, be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such provision or provisions shall be ineffective only to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without invalidating the remainder of such provision or provisions or the remaining provisions of this Agreement, and this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision or provisions had never been contained herein unless such a construction would be unreasonable.

10.14 Time of Essence. With regard to all dates and time periods set forth or referred to in this Agreement, time is of the essence. The Parties acknowledge that each will be relying upon the timely performance by the others of their obligations hereunder as a material inducement to each Party’s execution of this Agreement.

10.15 Disclosure Schedules. The Seller Disclosure Schedules are intended to qualify the representations and warranties made by Seller in this Agreement and as such, shall not be deemed to broaden in any way the scope or effect of any such representation or warranty. Any fact or item which is disclosed in any section or sections

of the Seller Disclosure Schedules in such a way as to make its relevance reasonably apparent on its face to any other representation(s) made in the Agreement or to the information called for by any other section(s) of the Seller Disclosure Schedules shall be deemed to be an exception to such representation(s) or to be disclosed on such other section(s), as the case may be, notwithstanding the omission of a reference or cross reference thereto.

10.16 Construction. Each and every provision of this Agreement and any related agreements and documents reflect a negotiated outcome and, as such, shall be construed such that the Parties participated jointly and equally in the drafting of the same. Any rule of construction providing that a document or provision should be construed in the light least favorable to the drafting Party shall be inapplicable to this Agreement or any related agreement or document. Every term and provision of this Agreement shall be construed simply according to its fair meaning and not strictly for or against any Party.

10.17 Headings. The headings used in this Agreement have been inserted for convenience of reference only, and are not intended to describe, interpret, define or limit the scope, extent or intent of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

10.18 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. The execution and delivery of this instrument by facsimile or electronically (e.g., PDF format) of the signature of the Party or an officer of a Party shall constitute due execution and delivery by that Party and shall bind that Party to the terms and conditions contained herein.
