In connection with any claim giving rise to indemnity hereunder resulting from or arising out of any Action by a Person who is not a party to this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party, at its sole cost and expense and upon written notice to the Indemnified Party, may assume the defense of any such Action with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of any such Action, with its counsel and at its own cost and expense. If the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of any such Action or if the Indemnifying Party fails to defend any such Action in a timely manner, the Indemnified Party may, but shall not be obligated to, defend against such Action in such manner as it may deem appropriate at the Indemnifying Party’s cost and expense, including, but not limited to, settling such Action, after giving notice of it to the Indemnifying Party, on such terms as the Indemnified Party may deem appropriate and no action taken by the Indemnified Party in accordance with such defense and settlement shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations herein with respect to any damages resulting therefrom. The Indemnifying Party shall not settle any Action without the Indemnified Party’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

Section 7.05        Limitations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein (but subject to Section 7.08), each Party’s aggregate liability for indemnification pursuant to this ARTICLE VII shall not exceed the Purchase Price; provided, however, that the Seller’s maximum out-of-pocket liability shall be limited to the sum of the Closing Cash Payment and any cash payments actually made to Seller in respect of the Convertible Note and/or the Buyer Shares, and thereafter Buyer’s sole remedy shall be to exercise its rights of set off pursuant to Section 7.06. In no event shall any Indemnifying Party be liable to any Indemnified Party for any punitive, incidental, consequential, special or indirect damages, including loss of future revenue or income, loss of business reputation or opportunity relating to the breach of this Agreement, other than in the event of the Indemnifying Party’s fraud, willful misconduct or intentional misrepresentation. The amount of any required payment by an Indemnifying Party pursuant to this ARTICLE VII in respect of any loss shall deduct therefrom any insurance proceeds and any indemnity, contribution or other similar payment actually received by the Indemnified Party from any insurance provider or any other third party in respect of any such claim. Each Indemnified Party shall use its reasonable commercial efforts to recover all amounts payable from an insurer or other third party under any such insurance policy or contract.

 

Section 7.06        Buyer’s Right to Offset. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, Buyer may, following a final, non-appealable adjudication that Seller is obligated to indemnify Buyer for losses hereunder, offset against any amounts due to Seller, including by reducing the outstanding principal amount of the Convertible Note or repurchasing any Buyer Shares (at a price per Buyer Share based on the fair market value as reasonably determined by the Buyer’s board of directors) or other shares of capital stock issued to Seller upon the Convertible Note (at the conversion price of such shares of capital stock). Neither the exercise of nor the failure to exercise such right of set-off will constitute an election of remedies or limit Buyer in any manner in the enforcement of any other remedies that may be available to it.

 

Section 7.07        Tax Treatment of Indemnification Payments. All indemnification payments made by Seller under this Agreement shall be treated by the parties as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for tax purposes, unless otherwise required by law.

 

Section 7.08        Exclusive Remedy. The parties acknowledge and agree that their sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all claims (other than claims arising from fraud, willful misconduct or intentional misrepresentation on the part of the other party hereto or any of its Affiliates and their respective stockholders, directors, members, managers, officers, employees, advisors, consultants and agents, in each case in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this ARTICLE VII.

This Agreement and the documents to be delivered hereunder constitute the sole and entire agreement of the parties to this Agreement with respect to the subject matter contained herein, and supersede all prior and contemporaneous understandings and agreements, both written and oral, with respect to such subject matter, including, for avoidance of doubt, that certain Memorandum of Understanding, dated April 5, 2019, signed by the parties, which is hereby irrevocably terminated. In the event of any inconsistency between the statements in the body of this Agreement and the documents to be delivered hereunder, and Disclosure Schedules (other than an exception expressly set forth as such in the Disclosure Schedules), the statements in the body of this Agreement will control.

 

Section 8.06       Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Neither party may assign its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the other party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided that either party may assign its rights or delegate its responsibilities without such consent to any of its Affiliates or in connection with the sale of all or substantially all of its assets or the merger, consolidation or similar reorganization or business combination of such party. No assignment shall relieve the assigning party of any of its obligations hereunder.

 

Section 8.07        No Third-party Beneficiaries. Except as provided in ARTICLE VII, this Agreement is for the sole benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and nothing herein, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person any legal or equitable right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement.

 

Section 8.08        Amendment and Modification. This Agreement may only be amended, modified or supplemented by an agreement in writing signed by each party hereto.

 

Section 8.09        Waiver. No waiver by any party of any of the provisions hereof shall be effective unless explicitly set forth in writing and signed by the party so waiving. No waiver by any party shall operate or be construed as a waiver in respect of any failure, breach or default not expressly identified by such written waiver, whether of a similar or different character, and whether occurring before or after that waiver. No failure to exercise, or delay in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege arising from this Agreement shall operate or be construed as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.

 

Section 8.10        Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdiction).

Any legal suit, action or proceeding arising out of or based upon this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby may be instituted in the federal courts of the United States of America or the courts of the State of New York in each case located in the city of New York and County of New York, and each party irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts in any such suit, action or proceeding.

Section 8.13        Specific Performance. The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur if any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with the terms hereof and that the parties shall be entitled to specific performance of the terms hereof, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity.
