9.2 Indemnification Obligations.

9.2.1 Indemnification by Seller. Sellers shall jointly and severally indemnify, defend and hold harmless Purchaser, the Companies, the Subsidiaries and their respective affiliates, and Representatives, and shall reimburse each such Person on demand for any Damages resulting from any of the following: (i) any breach or default in the performance by any of the Sellers of any covenant or agreement contained herein, in any agreement contemplated hereby or executed in connection herewith, or in any certificate or other instrument delivered or to be delivered by or on behalf of any of the Sellers pursuant hereto or thereto; (ii) any breach of warranty or inaccurate representation made by any of the Sellers herein; and (iii) the operation of the Business of each of the Companies and their Subsidiaries prior to the Closing Date provided, however, that:

9.2.1.1 None of the Sellers shall be required to pay any Damages to Purchaser unless the aggregate amount of all Damages exceeds $15,000, in which case all Damages shall be paid, and (ii) in no event shall the aggregate amount of Damages payable by the Sellers exceed $350,000, provided, however, that this limit on Damages shall not apply to Damages for breaches of warranty or inaccurate representation made by Sellers under Sections 3.2, 3.4, 3.5, 3.9.5, 3.15 and 3.19; and

9.2.1.2 Indemnity claims under this Section 9.2.1 shall be made first against the Indemnity Holdback Shares. For purposes of claims settled against the Indemnity Holdback Shares, each Indemnity Holdback Share shall be deemed to have a value of the greater of (x) the volume weighted average trading price for the Purchaser’s shares of Common Stock for the twenty (20) trading days prior to the settlement date and (y) $1.35. In the event Damages for which the Purchaser seeks indemnification exceed the value of the Indemnity Holdback Shares, such amounts shall be paid in cash by the Sellers.

9.2.2 Indemnification by Purchaser. Purchaser shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Sellers and any of their affiliates and Representatives, and shall reimburse each such Person on demand for any Damages resulting from any of the following: (i) any breach or default in the performance by Purchaser of any covenant or agreement of Purchaser contained herein, in any agreement contemplated hereby or executed in connection herewith, or in any certificate or other instrument delivered or to be delivered by or on behalf of Purchaser pursuant hereto or thereto; (ii) any breach of warranty or inaccurate representation made by Purchaser herein; and (iii) the operation of the Business of each of the Companies and their Subsidiaries after the Closing Date provided, however, that, (A) Purchaser shall not be required to pay any Damages to Sellers or any such Persons with respect to the breach of any representation or warranty pursuant to the foregoing clause (ii) unless the aggregate amount of all Damages exceeds $15,000, in which case all Damages shall be paid, and (B) in no event shall the aggregate amount of Damages payable by Purchaser exceed $350,000.

9.2.3 Claims for Indemnity. Whenever a claim for Damages shall arise for which one party (“Indemnitee”) shall be entitled to indemnification hereunder, Indemnitee shall notify the other party(s) (“Indemnitor”) in writing within thirty (30) days of the first receipt of notice of such claim, and in any event within such shorter period as may be necessary for Indemnitor to take appropriate action to resist such claim; provided that the failure to give notice as herein provided shall not relieve Indemnitor of its obligation to indemnify Indemnitee except to the extent that Indemnitor shall have been prejudiced in its ability to defend such claim. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, written notice of any Indemnitee’s claim for indemnification for breach of representations and warranties must be given within the survival period for such representations and warranties set forth in Section 9.1, and any indemnity claim for breaches of representations and warranties which has not been noticed in writing by such date shall be time-barred, irrespective of whether such claim was known or unknown by such date to the party seeking indemnification. Each notice shall specify all facts known to Indemnitee giving rise to such indemnity rights and shall estimate the amount of the liability arising therefrom. If Indemnitee is duly notified of a dispute, the parties shall attempt to settle and compromise the same, or if unable to do so within thirty (30) days (or such longer period as they may agree) of Indemnitor’s delivery of notice of a dispute, either party may seek judicial resolution of the dispute. Any rights of indemnification established by reason of such settlement, compromise or arbitration shall promptly thereafter be paid and satisfied by Indemnitor.

9.2.4 Defense of Third Party Claims. Upon receipt by Indemnitor of a notice from an Indemnitee with respect to any claim of a third party against Indemnitee, Indemnitor may assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to Indemnitee, and Indemnitee shall cooperate to the extent reasonably requested by Indemnitor in defense or prosecution thereof and shall furnish such records, information and testimony and attend all such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials and appeals as may be reasonably requested by Indemnitor in connection therewith. If Indemnitor assumes the defense of such claim, Indemnitee shall have the right to employ its own counsel in any such case, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of Indemnitee. If Indemnitor has assumed the defense of any claim against Indemnitee, Indemnitor shall have the right to settle any claim for which indemnification has been sought and is available hereunder involving only cash payment and/or a release it from liability; provided that, to the extent that such settlement requires Indemnitee to take, or prohibits Indemnitee from taking, any action or purports to obligate Indemnitee, then Indemnitor shall not settle such claim without the prior written consent of Indemnitee. If Indemnitor does not assume the defense of a third party claim and disputes Indemnitee’’s right to indemnification, Indemnitee shall have the right to participate in the defense of such claim through counsel of its choice, at Indemnitor’’s expense (subject to the validity of the Indemnitee’s claim), and Indemnitee shall have control over the litigation and authority to resolve such claim with the prior consent of Indemnitor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

9.3 No Double Recovery. Notwithstanding the fact that any Indemnitee may have the right to assert claims for indemnification under or in respect of more than one provision of this Agreement or another agreement entered into in connection herewith in respect of any fact, event, condition or circumstance, no Indemnitee shall be entitled to recover the amount of any Damages suffered by such Indemnitee more than once under all such agreements in respect of such fact, event, condition or circumstance, and an Indemnitor shall not be liable for indemnification to the extent the Indemnitee has otherwise been fully compensated on a dollar-for-dollar basis for such Damages pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 9.2.

9.4 Cooperation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article 6, the parties shall cooperate with each other in connection with any claim for indemnification hereunder, including to obtain the benefits of any insurance coverage for third party claims that may be in effect at the time a third party claim is asserted.

9.5 Mitigation. The amount of any Damages of any Indemnitee under this Article 6 shall be net of (a) the amount, if any, receivable by the Indemnitee from any third party (including, without limitation, any insurance company or other insurance provider) and (b) the amount, if any, equal to the Tax benefit (such amounts being collectively referred to herein as a “Third Party Reimbursement”), in respect of or attributable to the Damages suffered thereby. If, after receipt by the Indemnitee of any indemnification payment hereunder, such Person receives or becomes entitled to receive a Third Party Reimbursement in respect of the same Damages for which indemnification was made and such Third Party Reimbursement was not taken into account in assessing the amount of indemnification, then the Indemnitee shall turn over all of such Third Party Reimbursement to the Indemnitor up to the amount of the indemnification paid pursuant hereto.

9.6 Exclusive Remedy. Except in the case of fraud, the indemnification provided in this Article 9 will constitute the exclusive remedy of the Purchaser, the Companies, the Subsidiaries and their respective affiliates and Representatives, or Sellers and their affiliates and Representatives, as the case may be, and their respective assigns from and against any and all Damages asserted against, resulting to, imposed upon or incurred or suffered by, any of them, directly or indirectly, as a result of, or based upon or arising from the breach of any representation or warranty or the non-fulfillment of any agreement or covenant in or pursuant to this Agreement or any other agreement, document, or instrument required hereunder. Purchaser and Sellers each hereby waive, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law, any and all rights, claims, and causes of action it may have against any other party, or any of such other party’s affiliates, to the contrary.

9.7 Adjustments to Purchase Price. Any payments made pursuant to this Article 6 shall be consistently treated as adjustments to Purchase Price for all Tax purposes by Sellers and Purchaser.

9.8 Intentional Misrepresentation. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof to the contrary, any claims of fraud shall not be limited by any survival period contained in this Agreement or any limit on indemnification or remedy contained in this Agreement.

9.9 Damages. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, no party or its affiliates will be liable to the other party(s) or its affiliates for any Damages other than compensatory Damages. Each party agrees that it is not entitled to recover and agrees to waive any claim with respect to, and will not seek, consequential, punitive or any other special Damages as to any matter under, relating to or arising out of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided, however that the foregoing shall not limit any indemnification obligations of either party with respect to third party claims.

ARTICLE 10

TAX MATTERS

10.1 Payment of Taxes. Sellers shall pay, and indemnify, defend and hold the Purchaser, the Companies and all Subsidiaries harmless against, any and all Taxes of the Companies and the Subsidiaries (including without limitation, any Taxes due from Sellers) 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, including Taxes due after the Closing Date relating to deferred revenue for which the underlying license or maintenance payments were collected prior to 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 Companies or the Subsidiaries 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 Company 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.

10.2 Preparation of Tax Returns. Sellers shall prepare and file all income Tax Returns for the Companies for any tax periods ending on or prior to the Closing Date, except for any Tax Returns due after the Closing Date in which case Purchaser shall prepare such Tax Returns and Sellers 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. Except as otherwise provided in the preceding sentence, Purchaser shall prepare all Tax Returns for the Companies. Sellers shall reimburse Purchaser for Taxes of the Companies which are allocable to the Pre-Closing Period (in accordance with Section 10.1) within 15 days after payment by Purchaser or the applicable Company of such Taxes. Purchaser shall not file, or cause any of the Companies to file, any amended Tax Returns for any Company or any of the Subsidiaries for tax periods that include a period prior to the Closing Date without prior written consent of Sellers, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

10.3 Payment Over of Refunds. The Companies shall promptly pay, and Purchaser shall cause the Companies to pay, to Sellers any refund, overpayment, or credit (including any interest paid or credited with respect thereto) of Taxes attributable to Tax periods (or portions thereof) ending on or before the Closing Date.

10.4 Control of Tax Audits. Sellers shall have the right, at their own expense, to control any audit or examination by any Governmental Authority (a “Tax Audit”), initiate any claim for refund, contest, resolve and defend against any assessment, notice of deficiency, or other adjustment or proposed adjustment relating to any and all Taxes for any taxable period ending on or before the Closing Date with respect to any of the Companies; provided that Sellers shall not resolve any such contest without the consent of Purchaser, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Purchaser shall have the right, at its own expense, to control, or have the applicable Company 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.

10.5 Cooperation. Purchaser and the Companies, on the one hand, and Sellers, 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. Purchaser, the Companies, and Sellers shall (i) retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to the Company and the Subsidiaries relating to any taxable period beginning before the Closing Date until the expiration of the statute of limitations (and, to the extent notified by Purchaser or Sellers, 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, the Companies or Sellers as the case may be, shall allow the other party to take possession of such books and records. Upon request, Purchaser and Sellers 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 Transfer Taxes. Purchaser and Sellers shall each bear one half of all sales, transfer, stamp, real property transfer or gains or similar Taxes incurred, whether direct or indirect, as a result of the purchase of the Equity Interests by the Purchaser.

(i) by mutual consent of Purchaser, on the one hand, and Sellers on the other;

(ii) by Purchaser, on the one hand, or Sellers, on the other hand, if the Closing shall not have occurred by the Drop Dead Date, provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 11.1 shall not be available to any party whose failure to fulfill any obligation under this Agreement has been the cause of, or resulted in, the failure of the Closing to occur on or before such date;

(iii) by Purchaser, on the one hand, or Sellers on the other hand, if a court of competent jurisdiction shall have issued an order, decree or ruling permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and such order, decree, ruling or other action shall have become final and nonappealable;

(iv) by Sellers if Purchaser (x) breaches its representations and warranties in any material respect or (y) fails to comply in any material respect with any of its covenants or agreements contained herein; or

11.2 Effect of Termination. In the event of termination of this Agreement by either Purchaser or Sellers as provided above, the provisions of this Agreement shall immediately become void and of no further force and effect (other than this Section 11.2 and Sections 6.7 (Confidentiality), the limitations on indemnity set forth in Article 9, Section 12.3 (Expenses) and 12.5 (Controlling Law), which shall each survive the termination of this Agreement), and there shall be no liability on the part of any of Purchaser or Seller to one another, except for knowing or willful breaches of this Agreement prior to the time of such termination.

ARTICLE 12

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

12.1 Further Assurances. Each party to this Agreement shall execute, acknowledge and deliver any further documents and instruments and take any other action consistent with the terms of this Agreement that may reasonably be requested by the other party for the purpose of giving effect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, whether before, concurrent with or after the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

12.2 Publicity. Any press release or similar announcement concerning the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby by any party shall be provided to the other parties for review and approval prior to its release, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, Sellers or Purchaser or their affiliates may, without the consent of the other, publish and use standard tombstone announcements regarding the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided further, that in no event shall any party publicly disclose the Purchase Price or the approximate amount thereof, without the consent of the other parties. Following the issuance of the initial announcement, either party may, without the consent of the other, publish additional announcements that contain substantially similar material as the initial announcement.

This Agreement may be amended, supplemented, modified and/or rescinded only through an express written instrument signed by the parties or their respective successors and permitted assigns. Any party may specifically and expressly waive in writing any portion of this Agreement or any breach hereof, but only to the extent such provision is for the benefit of the waiving party, and no such waiver shall constitute a other or continuing waiver of any preceding or succeeding breach of the same or any other provision. The consent by one party to any act for which such consent was required shall not be deemed to imply consent or waiver of the necessity of obtaining such consent for the same or similar acts in the future, and no forbearance by a party to seek a remedy for noncompliance or breach by another party shall be construed as a waiver of any right or remedy with respect to such noncompliance or breach.

12.7 Assignment. Except as specifically provided otherwise in this Agreement, neither this Agreement nor any interest herein shall be assignable (voluntarily, involuntarily, by judicial process, operation of Law, or otherwise), in whole or in part, by any party without the prior written consent of the other party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Seller may, without the consent of Purchaser, whether before or after the Closing, assign all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to any Affiliate of such Seller, provided that such assignment shall not relieve any Seller of any of its obligations under this Agreement and Purchaser may, without the consent of Sellers, whether before or after the Closing, assign all of its rights under this Agreement to a wholly owned subsidiary of Purchaser, provided that such assignment shall not relieve Purchaser of any of its obligations under this Agreement prior to Closing.
