All of the items set forth in this Section 1.1 are collectively referred to as the “Purchased Assets”.

Section 1.2Intent of the Parties. Although the description of the Purchased Assets in Section 1.1 is intended to be complete, in the event Section 1.1 fails to contain the description of any intellectual property assets or related rights associated with or that belong to the Company in the Purchased Assets, such assets shall nonetheless be deemed transferred to Purchaser at the Closing.

Section 1.1Excluded Liabilities. Purchaser shall have no obligation and is not assuming, and the Company shall retain, pay, perform, defend and discharge, all of the liabilities and obligations of every kind whatsoever related or connected to the Purchased Assets, which liabilities existed, arose, or accrued during the periods on or prior to the Closing Date, whether disclosed or undisclosed, known or unknown on the Closing Date, direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, secured or unsecured, liquidated or unliquidated, accrued or otherwise, whether liabilities for taxes, liabilities of creditors, liabilities arising under any existing lease agreement, liabilities arising under any profit sharing, pension or other benefit under any plan of the Company, liabilities to any Governmental Agency (as hereinafter defined) or third parties, liabilities assumed or incurred by the Company by operation of law or otherwise (collectively, the “Excluded Liabilities”), including, but not limited to, (i) contractual liabilities arising or accruing from the Company or ownership of the Purchased Assets on or prior to the Closing

Nothing herein shall be interpreted to prevent the Company from contesting the validity of any of its alleged liabilities including as defined as “Excluded Liabilities” herein nor shall this agreement be construed to create a Third-Party Beneficiary related to any of the “Excluded Liabilities”. The Company retains all defenses, offsets and claims, and the right to assert same as to any and all of the “Excluded Liabilities.”

Section 1.2Indemnification from Purchaser. Purchaser agrees to and shall indemnify, defend (with legal counsel reasonably acceptable to the Company) and hold the Company and its officers, directors, affiliates, agents, legal counsel, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Company Group”) harmless from and against any and all Losses, whether arising from a direct (or first party) claim or a third-party claim, suffered or incurred by any of Company Group, arising from (a) any breach of any representation or warranty of Purchaser contained in this Agreement or any exhibit, certificate, or other agreement or instrument furnished or to be furnished by Purchaser hereunder; (b) any breach or nonfulfillment of any covenant or agreement on the part of Purchaser under this Agreement; or (c) any Assumed Liability.

Section 1.3 Defense of Claims. If any lawsuit enforcement action or any attempt to collect on an alleged liability is filed against any party entitled to the benefit of indemnity hereunder, written notice thereof shall be given to the Indemnitor within ten (10) business days after receipt of notice or other date by which action must be taken; provided that the failure of

any Indemnitee to give timely notice shall not affect rights to indemnification hereunder except to the extent that the Indemnitor demonstrates damage caused by such failure. After such notice, the Indemnitor shall be entitled, if it so elects, to take control of the defense and investigation of such lawsuit or action and to employ and engage attorneys of its own choice to handle and defend the same, at the Indemnitor’s cost, risk and expense; and such Indemnitee shall cooperate in all reasonable respects, at its cost, risk and expense, with the Indemnitor and such attorneys in the investigation, trial and defense of such lawsuit or action and any appeal arising therefrom; provided, however, that the Indemnitee may, at its own cost, participate in such investigation, trial and defense of such lawsuit or action and any appeal arising therefrom, but the fees and expenses of its legal counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnitee, except to the extent that (i) the employment thereof has been specifically authorized by the Indemnitor in writing, (ii) the Indemnitor has failed after a reasonable period of time to assume such defense and to employ counsel or (iii) in such action there is, in the reasonable opinion of such separate counsel, a material conflict of any material issue between the position of the Indemnitor and the position of such Indemnitee, in which case the Indemnitor shall be responsible for the reasonable fees and expenses of no more than one separate legal counsel. The Indemnitor shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee, effect any settlement of any proceeding in respect of which any Indemnitee is a party and indemnity has been sought hereunder unless such settlement of a claim, investigation, suit, or other proceeding only involves a remedy for the payment of money by the Indemnitor and includes an unconditional release of such Indemnitee from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding.

Section 1.4Default of Indemnification Obligation. If an entity or individual having an indemnification, defense and hold harmless obligation, as above provided, shall fail to assume such obligation, then the party or entities or both, as the case may be, to whom such indemnification, defense and hold harmless obligation is due shall have the right, but not the obligation, to assume and maintain such defense (including reasonable counsel fees and costs of any suit related thereto) and to make any settlement or pay any judgment or verdict as the individual or entities deem necessary or appropriate in such individuals or entities absolute sole discretion and to charge the cost of any such settlement, payment, expense and costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, to the entity or individual that had the obligation to provide such indemnification, defense and hold harmless obligation and same shall constitute an additional obligation of the entity or of the individual or both, as the case may be.

Section 1.5Survival of Representations and Warranties. The respective representations, warranties and indemnities given by the parties to each other pursuant to this Agreement shall survive the Closing for a period ending 24 months from the Closing Date (“Survival Date”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no claim for indemnification may be made against the party required to indemnify (the “Indemnitor”) under this Agreement unless the party entitled to indemnification (the “Indemnitee”) shall have given the Indemnitor written notice of such claim as provided herein on or before the Survival Date. Any claim for which notice has been given prior to the expiration of the Survival Date shall not be barred hereunder.

Section 1.6Right to Offset. In the event that the Purchaser is entitled to indemnification in accordance with this Article XI, including the payment by the Purchaser of any debts or liabilities resulting from the purchase of the Purchased Assets which were incurred prior to the Closing Date, then Purchaser shall have the right to offset any such amount from any obligations that are then due and payable to the Company by the Purchaser.

Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no waiver with respect to this Agreement shall be enforceable unless in writing and signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no failure to exercise, delay in exercising, or single or partial exercise of any right, power or remedy by any party, and no course of dealing between or among any of the parties, shall constitute a waiver of, or shall preclude any other or further exercise of, any right, power or remedy.
