9.2 Halo’s Indemnification. Halo will indemnify and save harmless Unify and its respective Affiliates and their respective shareholders, directors, officers, employees, representatives and agents from any and all Claims, costs (including of investigations or preparation for defense), expenses, losses, damages (actual or punitive) and liabilities incurred or suffered, directly or indirectly, by any of them (including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees and expenses) (collectively, the “Losses”) resulting from or attributable to (a) the breach of, or misstatement in, any one or more of the representations or warranties of Halo made in or pursuant to this Agreement; (b) any Claims, demands, suits, investigations, proceedings or actions by any third party containing or relating to allegations that, if true, would constitute a breach of, or misstatement in, any one or more of the representations or warranties of Halo made in or pursuant to this Agreement, and (c) breach of any covenant of Halo contained herein; provided, however, that, (A) Halo shall not be required to pay any Losses with respect to the breach of any representation or warranty pursuant to the foregoing clauses (a) or (b) unless the aggregate amount of all Losses exceeds $200,000, in which case all Losses shall be paid in excess of $200,000, and (B) in no event shall the aggregate amount of Losses payable by Halo exceed $5,000,000.

The limitation on damages set forth in this Section 9.3 shall not apply to any Losses incurred due to fraud.

9.4 Indemnification Procedure for Third Party Claims. In the event that subsequent to the Closing any person or entity entitled to indemnification under this Agreement (an “Indemnified Party”) asserts a claim for indemnification or receives notice of the assertion of any claim or of the commencement of any action or proceeding by any entity who is not a party to this Agreement or an Affiliate of such a party (including, but not limited to any domestic or foreign court or Governmental Authority, federal, state or local) (a “Third Party Claim”) against such Indemnified Party, against which a party to this Agreement is required to provide indemnification under this Agreement (an “Indemnifying Party”), the Indemnified Party shall give written notice together with a statement of any available information regarding such claim to the Indemnifying Party within thirty (30) days after learning of such claim (or within such shorter time as may be necessary to give the Indemnifying Party a reasonable opportunity to respond to such claim). The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, upon written notice to the Indemnified Party (the “Defense Notice”) within thirty (30) days after receipt from the Indemnified Party of notice of such claim, (which notice by the Indemnifying Party shall specify the counsel it will appoint to defend such claim (“Defense Counsel”)), to conduct at its expense the defense against such claim in its own name, or if necessary in the name of the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party shall have the right to approve the Defense Counsel and in the event the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party cannot agree upon such counsel within ten (10) days after the Defense Notice is provided, then the Indemnifying Party shall propose an alternate Defense Counsel, which shall be subject again to the Indemnified Party’s approval.

  A.   In the event that the Indemnifying Party shall fail to give such notice, it shall be deemed to have elected not to conduct the defense of the subject claim, and in such event the Indemnified Party shall have the right to conduct such defense in good faith and to compromise and settle the claim without prior consent of the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnifying Party will be liable for all costs, expenses, settlement amounts or other Losses paid or incurred in connection therewith.

  B.   In the event that the Indemnifying Party does elect to conduct the defense of the subject claim, the Indemnified Party will cooperate with and make available to the Indemnifying Party such assistance and materials as may be reasonably requested by it, all at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, and the Indemnified Party shall have the right at its expense to participate in the defense assisted by counsel of its own choosing, provided that the Indemnified Party shall have the right to compromise and settle the claim only with the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be reasonably withheld or delayed. Without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party will not enter into any settlement of any Third Party Claim or cease to defend against such claim, if pursuant to or as a result of such settlement or cessation, (i) injunctive or other equitable relief would be imposed against the Indemnified Party or its Affiliates, or (ii) such settlement or cessation would lead to liability or create any financial or other obligation on the part of the Indemnified Party or its Affiliates for which the Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification hereunder. The Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to control, and the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to have sole control over, the defense or settlement of any claim to the extent that claim seeks an order, injunction or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party which, if successful, could materially interfere with the business, operations, assets, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Indemnified Party or its Affiliates (and the cost of such defense shall constitute a Loss for which the Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification hereunder). If a firm decision is made to settle a Third Party Claim, which offer the Indemnifying Party is permitted to settle under this Section 9.4B, and the Indemnifying Party desires to accept and agree to such offer, the Indemnifying Party will give written notice to the Indemnified Party to that effect. If the Indemnified Party fails to consent to such firm offer within thirty (30) calendar days after its receipt of such notice, the Indemnified Party may continue to contest or defend such Third Party Claim and, in such event, the maximum liability of the Indemnifying Party as to such Third Party Claim will not exceed the amount of such settlement offer, plus costs and expenses paid or incurred by the Indemnified Party through the end of such thirty (30) day period.

  C.   Any judgment entered or settlement agreed upon in the manner provided herein shall be binding upon the Indemnifying Party, and shall conclusively be deemed to be an obligation with respect to which the Indemnified Party is entitled to prompt indemnification hereunder.

  D.   A failure by an Indemnified Party to give timely, complete or accurate notice as provided in Section 9.4 will not affect the rights or obligations of any party hereunder except and only to the extent that, as a result of such failure, any party entitled to receive such notice was deprived of its right to recover any payment under its applicable insurance coverage or was otherwise directly and materially damaged as a result of such failure to give timely notice.

  E.   The Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated to the Indemnified Party’s rights of recovery to the extent of any Loss satisfied by the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnified Party shall execute and deliver such instruments and papers as are necessary to assign such rights and assist in the exercise thereof, including access to books and records of the Company.

9.5 Direct Claims. It is the intent of the parties hereto that all direct Claims by an Indemnified Party against a party hereto not arising out of Third Party Claims shall be subject to and benefit from the terms of this Article 9. Any claim under this Article 9 by an Indemnified Party for indemnification other than indemnification against a Third Party Claim (a “Direct Claim”) will be asserted by giving the Indemnifying Party written notice thereof.

9.6 Characterization of Indemnification Payments. Unify and Halo agree to treat any payment under this Article 9 as an adjustment to the Purchase Price. If, contrary to the intent of Unify and Halo as expressed in the preceding sentence, any payment made pursuant to this Article 9 is treated as taxable income of an Indemnified Party, then the Indemnifying Party shall indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnified Party from any liability for Taxes attributable to the receipt of such payment.

Unify shall pay, and indemnify, defend and hold Halo, and all its subsidiaries harmless against, any and all Taxes of the NavRisk Business (including without limitation, any Taxes due from Unify) allocable to any taxable periods ending on or before the Closing Date and the portion through the end of the Closing Date for any taxable period that includes (but does not end on) the Closing Date (the “Pre-Closing Tax Period”). In the case of any taxable period that includes (but does not end on) the Closing Date, the amount of any Taxes based on or measured by income or receipts of the NavRisk Business allocable to the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be determined based on an interim closing of the books as of the close of business on the Closing Date, and the amount of other Taxes of the NavRisk Business allocable to the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire taxable period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the taxable period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in such taxable period.

Unify shall prepare and file all income Tax Returns for the NavRisk Business for any tax periods ending on or prior to the Closing Date, except for any Tax Returns relating to the NavRisk Business due after the Closing Date in which case Halo shall prepare such Tax Returns and Unify shall have the right to review and approve such Tax Returns at least 10 business days prior to filing, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.

Unify shall reimburse Halo for Taxes of the NavRisk Business which are allocable to the Pre-Closing Period (in accordance with Section 10.1) within 15 days after payment by Halo or its subsidiaries of such Taxes, provided, however, that such reimbursement shall be made only to the extent that such Taxes exceed the amount, if any, included in the determination of the NavRisk Net Working Capital as of the Closing Date. Halo shall not file, or cause the NavRisk Business or any of its subsidiaries to file, any amended Tax Returns for the NavRisk Business or any of Halo’s subsidiaries for tax periods that include a period prior to the Closing Date without prior written consent of Unify, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

Halo shall have the right, at its own expense, to control, or have the NavRisk Business control, any other Tax Audit, initiate any other claim for refund, and contest, resolve and defend against any other assessment, notice of deficiency, or other adjustment for tax years beginning after the Closing Date.

Halo, and its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and Unify, on the other hand, shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other party, in connection with the filing of Tax Returns pursuant to this Article 10, and any audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the other party’s request) the provision of records and information which are reasonably relevant to any such audit, litigation or other proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. Halo and Unify shall (i) retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to the NavRisk Business relating to any taxable period beginning before the Closing Date until the expiration of the statute of limitations (and, to the extent notified by Halo or Unify, any extensions thereof) of the respective taxable periods, and to abide by all record retention agreements entered into with any Governmental Authority and (ii) to give the other party reasonable written notice prior to transferring, destroying or discarding any such books and records and, if the other party so requests, Halo or Unify as the case may be, shall allow the other party to take possession of such books and records. Upon request, Halo and Unify further agree to use their reasonable commercial efforts to obtain any certificate or other document from any Governmental Authority or any other Person as may be necessary to mitigate, reduce or eliminate any Tax that could be imposed (including but not limited to with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby).

10.6 Characterization of Payments. All payments made pursuant to this Article 10 shall be consistently treated as adjustments to the purchase price for all Tax purposes by Halo and Unify.

In the case of any taxable period that includes (but does not end on) the Closing Date, the amount of any Taxes based on or measured by income or receipts of the Gupta Business allocable to the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be determined based on an interim closing of the books as of the close of business on the Closing Date, and the amount of other Taxes of the Gupta Business allocable to the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire taxable period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the taxable period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in such taxable period.

Except as otherwise provided in the preceding sentence, Unify shall prepare all Tax Returns for the Gupta Business. Halo shall reimburse Unify for Taxes of the Gupta Business and the Subsidiaries which are allocable to the Pre-Closing Period (in accordance with Section 11.1) within 15 days after payment by Unify or its subsidiaries of such Taxes, provided, however, that such reimbursement shall be made only to the extent that such Taxes exceed the amount, if any, included in the determination of the Gupta Net Working Capital as of the Closing Date.
