Any and all liabilities, obligations and/or losses resulting from any material breach of any representation and warranty or nonfulfillment of any covenant on the part of the Buyer to Seller contained in this Agreement, or any other agreement, certificate or other instrument furnished or to be furnished to the Seller by the Buyer pursuant to this Agreement.

Any and all liabilities, obligations and/or losses resulting from any Products Liability (as hereinafter defined) arising at any time with respect to any product sold by the Buyer after the Closing Date. For the purposes of this Agreement, "Products Liability" means any liability to which the Seller or the Buyer or any affiliate thereof as successor to any business of the Seller may become subject insofar as such liability is based upon, arises out of or is otherwise in respect of any express or implied representation, warranty, agreement or guaranty to a customer, user or purchaser made or claimed to have been made by the Buyer or arising out of or due to, or asserted to be arising out of or due to, any product sold by the Buyer after the Closing Date.

Any and all liabilities of Seller relating to or arising out of the Lawsuit.

All claims or causes of action brought against the shareholders, officers or directors of Seller, derivative or otherwise, relating to any actions taken by the such shareholders, officers or directors in the conduct of the business of the Seller.

4. Indemnification Procedure. The indemnified party shall give the indemnifying party prompt written notice of the assertion of any third party claim of which the indemnified party has knowledge, which is covered by the indemnity agreement set forth above. The indemnifying party will undertake the defense thereof by representatives chosen by the indemnifying party, but acceptable to the indemnified party in its reasonable discretion. If the indemnifying party, within a reasonable time after notice of any such claim fails to defend, the indemnified party will have the right to undertake the defense, compromise or settlement of such claim on behalf of and for the account and risk of the indemnifying party, subject to the right of the indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim at any time prior to settlement, compromise or final determination thereof. Anything in this Section 8.4 to the contrary withstanding, if there is a reasonable probability that a claim may materially and adversely affect the indemnified party other than as a result of money damages or other payments, the indemnified party shall have the right, at the cost and expense of the indemnifying party, to defend, compromise, or settle such claim. After any final judgment or award shall have been rendered by a court, arbitration board or administrative agency of competent jurisdiction, or a settlement shall have been consummated, or the parties shall have arrived at a mutually binding agreement, with respect to each separate third party claim indemnified hereunder, the indemnified party shall forward to the indemnifying party notice of any sums due and owing by the indemnifying party with respect to such claim and the indemnifying party shall pay such sums to the indemnified party in cash or by certified check, within thirty (30) days after the date of such notice.

5. Liability Limitations. No party shall have any liability under this Agreement, or be subject to any claim for indemnification under Article 8, unless notice of such claim is given on or before the latter of (i) the second anniversary of the Closing Date or (ii) the second anniversary of the date on which such claim accrued. However, claims may be asserted with respect to Product Liability matters, tax matters, environmental matters or ERISA matters at any time on or before the date upon which the loss or liability to which any such claim may relate is barred by all applicable statutes of limitation.
