SECTION 4. Indemnification. The representations and warranties of the Seller and the Buyer made pursuant to Section 2 and Section 3 shall survive the Closing until the first (1st) anniversary of the Closing Date; provided, however, that any representations and warranties the breach or violation of which is made the basis of a claim for indemnification will survive until such time as such claim is finally resolved in accordance with this Agreement.
(a) The Seller hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Buyer from and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages, claims, costs and expenses, interest, awards, judgments and penalties (including reasonable and documented attorneys’ and consultants’ fees and expenses) actually paid, suffered, incurred by, or imposed upon, them (including any action brought or otherwise initiated by any of them) (any of the foregoing, a “Loss”) arising out of or resulting from any breach of any of the Seller’s representations.
(b) The Buyer hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Seller from and against any and all Losses arising out of or resulting from any breach of any of the Buyer’s representations.
(c) Limits on Indemnification. The Seller and the Buyer (each, an “Indemnifying Party”) shall not be liable for any claim for indemnification pursuant to this Section 4(a) or 4(b), respectively, unless and until the aggregate amount of indemnifiable Losses which may be recovered from such Indemnifying Party equals or exceeds Twenty thousand dollars (US$20,000)] whereupon the Seller and the Buyer, respectively, shall be entitled to indemnification for the full amount of such Losses. In no event shall the aggregate indemnification actually paid by an indemnifying party for a breach of their respective representations and warranties taken together with all other indemnification actually paid by such indemnifying party exceed Seven Hundred and Twenty Thousand dollars (US$720,000).
(d) Notice of Loss. The Seller and the Buyer shall give the other party notice of any matter which they have determined has given or could give rise to a right of indemnification under this Agreement, within thirty (30) days of such determination, stating the amount of the Loss, if known, and method of computation thereof, and containing a reference to the provisions of this Agreement in respect of which such right of indemnification is claimed or arises.
6 |
(e) Indemnification Payments. Any indemnification obligation of an Indemnifying Party under this Section 4 will be settled solely through delivery to the indemnified party of such number of Consideration Shares that are equal in value to the finally determined amount of indemnification determined. The Seller and the Buyer hereby agree to report each indemnification payment made in respect of any Losses as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for tax purposes to the extent permitted by applicable law and shall file all tax returns in a manner consistent with the foregoing. The value of the Consideration Shares shall be the same value attributable to such shares as of the Closing Date. In no event shall any indemnifying party be required to pay or reimburse its indemnification obligations with cash. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in lieu of delivering all or a portion of the Consideration Shares otherwise deliverable to an indemnified party in accordance with this Section 4, the indemnifying party may pay the value of such Consideration Shares, as determined in accordance with this Section 4(e), to the indemnified party, in cash. For the avoidance of doubt, any such payment in cash shall be counted towards the limit on the aggregate amount of all Losses for which the indemnifying party shall be liable pursuant to Section 4(d), as if the Consideration Shares themselves had been delivered.
(f) Exclusive Remedy. From and after the Closing, except with respect to fraud claims or claims seeking injunctions, specific performance or other equitable relief, or claims under covenants and agreements contained herein that by their terms expressly require performance after the Closing but only with respect to that portion of such covenant or agreement that is expressly to be performed following the Closing, indemnification pursuant to this Section 4 by the delivery of Consideration Shares (or cash in lieu thereof, at the election of the indemnifying party) as provided in Section 4(e) shall be the sole and exclusive remedy for the indemnified party with respect to matters arising under this Agreement of any kind or nature, including for any misrepresentation or breach of any warranty, covenant, or other provision contained in this Agreement or in any certificate or instrument delivered pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement.
SECTION 5. Miscellaneous.
(a) No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall not confer any rights or remedies upon any person or entity other than the parties and their respective successors and assigns.
(b) Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties and supersede any prior understandings, agreements, or representations by or between the parties hereto, written or oral, to the extent they relate in any way to the subject matter hereof.
(c) Succession and Assignment. This Agreement and any rights and obligations hereunder shall not be assigned by operation of law or otherwise without the express written consent of the other parties and any such attempted assignment without such consent shall be null and void. In the case where such consent is obtained, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the respective assigns to the parties hereto.
