(h) All transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other such Taxes and fees (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with this Agreement assessed against Sellers shall be paid by Sellers when due, and Sellers shall, at their own expense, file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to all such transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other Taxes and fees, and, if required by applicable law, Buyer shall, and shall cause its affiliates to, join in the execution of any such Tax Returns and other documentation.

7.2 Noncompete.

(a) Each of Sellers agrees that during the * period following the Closing Date (the “Noncompete Period”), he or she shall not, directly or indirectly, either for himself or herself, or for any other Person (other than the Company) participate in the Business anywhere within*, other than on behalf of the Company. For purposes of this Agreement, the term ‘participate’ includes any direct or indirect interest in any enterprise, whether as an officer, director, employee, partner, member, sole proprietor, agent, representative, independent contractor, consultant, franchisor, franchisee, creditor, lender, owner or otherwise; provided that the term ‘participate’ shall not include ownership of stock of Buyer and of less than 2% of the stock of a publicly-held corporation whose stock is traded on a national securities exchange or in the over-the-counter market.

(b) Non-Solicitation. During the * period following the Closing Date, no Seller shall, directly or indirectly, (i) induce or attempt to induce any employee of Company to leave the employ of Company or in any way interfere with the relationship between Company and any employee thereof, (ii) induce or attempt to induce any customer or supplier of Company to cease doing business with Company, (iii) knowingly induce or attempt to induce any employee of Buyer or any of its Affiliates to leave the employ of Buyer or any of its Affiliates or in any way interfere with the relationship between Buyer or any of its Affiliates and any employee thereof, or (ii) knowingly induce or attempt to induce any customer or supplier of Buyer or any of its Affiliates to cease doing business with Buyer or any of its Affiliates. Each Seller agrees that this covenant is reasonable with respect to its duration, geographical area and scope.

(c) Specific Performance. Each Seller agrees that Buyer would suffer irreparable harm from a breach by such Seller of any of the covenants or agreements contained in this Section 7.2 In the event of an alleged or threatened breach by a Seller of any of the provisions of this Section 7.2, Buyer or its successors or assigns may, in addition to all other rights and remedies existing in its favor, apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for specific performance and/or injunctive or other relief in order to enforce or prevent any violations of the provisions hereof. To the extent of any breach of this Section 7.2 by any Seller, the Noncompete Period (with respect to such breaching Seller) shall automatically be extended by the length of such breach.

(d) Scope, etc. If, at the time of enforcement of any of the provisions of this Section 7.2, a court holds that the restrictions stated therein are unreasonable under the circumstances then existing, the parties hereto agree that the maximum period, scope or geographical area reasonable under such circumstances shall be substituted for the stated period, scope or area. Each Seller acknowledges that, without provisions contained in this Section 7.2, Buyer would have not entered into this Agreement.

7.3 Certain Taxes. All transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other such Taxes and fees (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with this Agreement (including any corporate-level gains tax triggered by the sale of Stock), shall be paid by * when due, and * will, at their own expense, file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to all such transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other Taxes and fees and, if required by applicable law, * will, and will cause its Affiliates to, join in the execution of any such Tax Returns and other documentation.

7.4 Securities Matters. Each Seller acknowledges that Buyer will require (at Buyer’s sole cost and expense) audited financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2006, and reviewed financial statements for the period from January 1, 2007 through the Effective Date. Each Seller shall, at Buyer’s request, and to the extent necessary in connection with a public offering or private placement of any securities of Buyer or any Affiliate of Buyer, cooperate with the Buyer in connection with the audit and review of such financial statements to the extent necessary to enable Buyer to present the financial statements required by Form S-1 of the Securities and Exchange Commission or other securities laws. Each Seller shall render such assistance as may be reasonably necessary in connection with the audit and review of such financial statements and shall provide or make available such records or information relevant thereto as are in its possession or under its control. In addition, each Seller shall use its

reasonable best efforts to assist Buyer in connection with any offering or placement of securities of Buyer, or any Affiliate who is a direct or indirect parent of Buyer or the Company, including, without limitation, participation in underwriter due diligence sessions and ‘road shows’ at such times as required by Buyer (solely with respect to the business of the Company) or any underwriter and by providing all information necessary concerning the Company as required by Buyer and its underwriter.

(a) By Sellers. Each Seller, jointly and severally, hereby agrees to indemnify and hold Buyer, the Company, and their respective directors, officers, employees, stockholders, agents, attorneys, representatives, successors and permitted assigns (collectively, the “Buyer Indemnified Parties”) harmless from and against any Losses arising from: (i) any breach of the representations and warranties (without regard to any knowledge, materiality or Material Adverse Effect qualifiers contained in any such representation or warranty) made by the Company in this Agreement; (ii) any breach of the covenants or agreements (without regard to any knowledge, materiality or Material Adverse Effect qualifiers contained in any such covenant or agreement) made by Sellers or the Company in this Agreement; or (iii) any Excluded Liabilities. In addition, each Seller, severally and not jointly, hereby agrees to indemnify and hold Buyer Indemnified Parties harmless from and against any Losses based upon or arising from any breach of the representations and warranties (without regard to any knowledge, materiality or Material Adverse Effect qualifiers contained in any such representation or warranty) of such Seller contained in Article V.

(b) By Buyer. Following the Closing, Buyer shall indemnify and hold harmless Sellers at all times from and after the Closing Date against and in respect of Losses arising from or relating to: (i) any breach of any representation or warranty (without regard to any knowledge, materiality or Material Adverse Effect qualifiers contained in any such representation or warranty) made by Buyer in this Agreement; (ii) any breach of any covenant and agreement (without regard to any knowledge, materiality or Material Adverse Effect qualifiers contained in any such covenant or agreement) made by Buyer in this Agreement; and (iii) any Losses arising based upon or due to the operations of the Company after the Closing Date.

9.2 Limitations of Indemnity.

(a) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) no amounts shall be payable under Section 9.1(a)(i) unless and until *; and (ii) no claim for indemnification under Section 9.1(a)(i) shall first be asserted after the * anniversary of the Closing Date; provided, however, that a claim for indemnification under Sections 4.3 (Authorization; Binding Obligations), 4.7(b) (Title to Stock) and 5.1 (Ownership of Capital Stock), 4.13 (Employee Benefit Plans; ERISA), 4.14 (Taxes), 4.20 (Environmental Matters) and 4.31 (Compliance with Laws) may be asserted at any time prior to the expiration of the statute of limitations applicable thereto. * Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the * shall not apply to a claim for breach of any representation and warranty set forth in Section 4.3 (Authorization; Binding Obligations), Section 4.13 (Employee Benefit Plans; ERISA), Section 4.14 (Taxes), Section 4.20 (Environmental Matters) or Section 4.30 (Brokers; Certain Expenses) and * shall apply to a claim for fraud.

(b) The liability of Sellers under the indemnification provisions of this Article IX shall be recovered first from the Escrow Fund other than for claims for breach of any representations and warranties set forth in Article V and Section 7.2.

9.3 Indemnification Procedures - Third Party Claims.

(a) The rights and obligations of a party claiming a right of indemnification hereunder (each an “Indemnitee”) from a Party to this Agreement (each an “Indemnitor”) in any way relating to a Third Party Claim shall be governed by the following provisions of this Section 9.3:

(i) The Indemnitee shall give prompt written notice to the Indemnitor of the commencement of any claim, action suit or proceeding, or any threat thereof, or any state of facts which Indemnitee determines will give rise to a claim by the Indemnitee against the Indemnitor based on the indemnity provisions contained in this Agreement setting forth, in reasonable detail, the nature and basis of the claim and the amount thereof, to the extent known, and any other relevant information in the possession of the Indemnitee (a “Notice of Claim”). The Notice of Claim shall be accompanied by any relevant documents in the possession of the Indemnitee relating to the claim (such as copies of any summons, complaint or pleading which may have been served and, or any written demand or document evidencing the same). No failure to give a Notice of Claim shall affect, limit or reduce the indemnification obligations of an Indemnitor hereunder, except to the extent such failure actually prejudices such Indemnitor’s ability successfully to defend the claim, action, suit or proceeding giving rise to the indemnification claim.

(ii) In the event that an Indemnitee furnishes an Indemnitor with a Notice of Claim, then, upon the written acknowledgment by the Indemnitor given to the Indemnitee within 30 days after receipt of the Notice of Claim, stating that the Indemnitor is undertaking and will prosecute the defense of the claim under such indemnity provisions and confirming that based on the information available as between the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee, the claim covered by the Notice of Claim is subject to this Article IX and that the Indemnitor will be able to pay the full amount of potential liability in connection with any such claim (including, without limitation, any action, suit or proceeding and all proceedings on appeal or other review which counsel for the Indemnitee may reasonably consider appropriate) (an “Indemnification Acknowledgment”), then the claim covered by the Notice of Claim may be defended by the Indemnitor, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnitor; provided, however, that the Indemnitee is authorized to file any motion, answer or other pleading that may be reasonably necessary or appropriate to protect its interests during such 30-day period. The delivery of an Indemnification Acknowledgment shall not preclude Indemnitor’s subsequent right to deny indemnification and Indemnitor’s right to reimbursement of all costs of any nature incurred, if it is ultimately determined that such claim was not indemnifiable by Indemnitor. However, in the event the Indemnitor does not furnish an Indemnification Acknowledgment to the Indemnitee or does not offer reasonable assurances to the Indemnitee as to Indemnitor’s financial capacity to satisfy any final judgment or settlement, the Indemnitee may, upon written notice to the Indemnitor, assume the defense (with legal counsel chosen by the Indemnitee) and dispose of the claim, and the Indemnitor shall be responsible for Indemnitee’s reasonable costs and expenses. Notwithstanding receipt of an Indemnification Acknowledgment, the Indemnitee shall have the right to employ its own counsel in respect of any such claim, action, suit or proceeding, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the Indemnitee’s own cost and expense, unless (A) the employment of such counsel and the payment of such fees and expenses shall have been specifically authorized by the Indemnitor in connection with the defense of such claim, action, suit or proceeding, or (B) the

Indemnitee shall have reasonably concluded based upon a written opinion of counsel that there may be specific material defenses available to the Indemnitee which are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnitor, in which case the costs and expenses incurred by the Indemnitee for such counsel shall be borne by the Indemnitor, provided that Indemnitor shall not be obligated to pay for the costs and expenses of more than one counsel to the Indemnitee.

(iii) The Indemnitee or the Indemnitor, as the case may be, who is controlling the defense of the claim, action, suit or proceeding, shall keep the other party fully informed of such claim, action, suit or proceeding at all stages thereof, whether or not such party is represented by counsel. The Parties hereto agree to render to each other such assistance as they may reasonably require of each other in order to ensure the proper and adequate defense of any such claim, action, suit or proceeding. Subject to the Indemnitor furnishing the Indemnitee with an Indemnification Acknowledgment in accordance with Section 9.3(a)(ii), the Indemnitee shall cooperate with the Indemnitor and provide such assistance, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnitor, as the Indemnitor may reasonably request in connection with the defense of any such claim, action, suit or proceeding, including, but not limited to, providing the Indemnitor with access to and use of all relevant corporate records and making available its officers and employees for depositions, pre-trial discovery and as witnesses at trial, if required. In requesting any such cooperation, the Indemnitor shall have due regard for, and attempt not to be disruptive of, the business and day-to-day operations of the Indemnitee and shall follow the requests of the Indemnitee regarding any documents or instruments which the Indemnitee believes should be given confidential treatment.

(b) Neither Party shall make or enter into any settlement of any claim, action, suit or proceeding which one Party has undertaken to defend, without the other Party’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), unless there is no obligation, directly or indirectly, on the part of such other Party to contribute to any portion of the payment for any of the Losses, such other Party receives a general and unconditional release with respect to the claim (in form, substance and scope reasonably acceptable to such other Party), there is no finding or admission of any violation of law by, or effect on any other claim that may be made against such other Party and, in the reasonable judgment of such other Party, the relief granted in connection therewith is not likely to have a Material Adverse Effect on such other Party or its reputation or prospects.

(c) Any claim for indemnification that may be made under more than one subsection under Section 9.1 may be made under the subsection that the claiming party may elect in its sole discretion, notwithstanding that such claim may be made under more than one subsection.

9.4 Indemnification Procedures - Other Claims, Indemnification Generally.

(a) A claim for indemnification for any matter not relating to a Third Party Claim may be asserted by giving reasonable notice directly by the Indemnitee to the Indemnitor. The Indemnitee shall afford the Indemnitor reasonable access to all relevant corporate records and other information in its possession relating thereto.

(b) If any party becomes obligated to indemnify another party with respect to any claim for indemnification hereunder and the amount of liability with respect thereto shall have been finally determined in accordance with this Article IX, the Indemnifying Party shall pay such amount to the Indemnified Party in immediately available funds within ten days following written demand therefor by the Indemnified Party. The indemnifying party shall not be obligated to pay any amount under this Article IX until such final determination.

9.5 Exclusive Remedy. The provisions for indemnification set forth in this Article IX are the exclusive remedies of Sellers, Buyer and the Company arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, and shall be in lieu of any rights under contract, tort, equity or otherwise (other than claims based on actual fraud or intentional breach of this Agreement).

Article X

10.2 Expenses. Except as provided in Article IX, the Company on the one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand, shall bear all of their own expenses in connection with the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including without limitation all fees and expenses of its agents, representatives, counsel and accountants.

10.3 Entire Agreement; Amendments and Waivers.

This Agreement may not be amended or modified except by an instrument in writing signed by Buyer and Sellers. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed or shall constitute a waiver of any other provision hereof (whether or not similar), nor shall such waiver constitute a continuing waiver unless otherwise expressly provided. Neither the failure nor the delay by any Party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver of such right, power or privilege, and no single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege shall preclude any other or further exercise of any such right, power or privilege or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) no waiver that may be given by a Party shall be applicable except in the specific instance for which it was given and (b) no notice to or demand on one Party shall be deemed to be a waiver of any obligation of such Party or the right of the Party giving such notice or demand to take further action without notice or demand as provided in this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents.

10.4 Notices. All notices, demands and other communications to be given or delivered under or by reason of the provisions of this Agreement will be in writing and will be deemed to have been given (i) when delivered if personally delivered by hand (with written confirmation of receipt), (ii) when received if sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier service (receipt requested),

or at such other address or addresses as Buyer, the Company or Sellers, as the case may be, may specify by written notice given in accordance with this Section 10.4.

10.5 Waivers and Amendments. This Agreement may be amended, superseded, canceled, renewed or extended and the terms hereof may be waived only by a written instrument signed by the Parties or, in the case of a waiver, by the Party waiving compliance.

10.6 Governing Law. IN ALL RESPECTS, INCLUDING ALL MATTERS OF CONSTRUCTION, VALIDITY AND PERFORMANCE, THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS MADE AND PERFORMED IN THAT STATE (WITHOUT REGARD TO THE CHOICE OF LAW OR CONFLICTS OF LAW PROVISIONS THEREOF) AND ANY APPLICABLE LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.

10.7 Consent to Jurisdiction and Venue. THE PARTIES HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY CONSENT AND AGREE THAT ALL ACTIONS, SUITS OR OTHER PROCEEDINGS ARISING UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH

THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE TRIED AND LITIGATED IN STATE OR FEDERAL COURTS LOCATED IN *, WHICH COURTS SHALL HAVE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION TO HEAR AND DETERMINE ANY AND ALL CLAIMS, CONTROVERSIES AND DISPUTES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, NOTHING CONTAINED IN THIS SECTION 10.7 SHALL PRECLUDE BUYER FROM BRINGING ANY ACTION, SUIT OR OTHER PROCEEDING IN THE COURTS OF ANY OTHER LOCATION WHERE THE COMPANY OR SELLERS OR ANY ONE OF THEM OR ANY OF ITS OR THEIR ASSETS OR THE COLLATERAL MAY BE FOUND OR LOCATED OR TO ENFORCE ANY JUDGMENT OR OTHER COURT ORDER IN FAVOR OF BUYER.

EACH OF THE COMPANY AND EACH SELLER, FOR ITSELF AND ITS PROPERTY, (A) IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE JURISDICTION OF ANY SUCH COURT AND CONSENTS IN ADVANCE TO SUCH JURISDICTION IN ANY ACTION, SUIT OR OTHER PROCEEDING COMMENCED IN ANY SUCH COURT, (B) WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO ASSERT THE DOCTRINE OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS OR ANY OBJECTION THAT SUCH PERSON MAY HAVE BASED UPON LACK OF PERSONAL JURISDICTION OR IMPROPER VENUE AND (C) CONSENTS TO THE GRANTING OF SUCH LEGAL OR EQUITABLE RELIEF AS IS DEEMED APPROPRIATE BY SUCH COURT.

TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER THE APPLICABLE LAWS OF ANY SUCH JURISDICTION, EACH OF THE COMPANY AND EACH SELLER HEREBY WAIVES, IN RESPECT OF ANY SUCH ACTION, SUIT OR OTHER PROCEEDING, THE JURISDICTION OF ANY OTHER COURT OR COURTS THAT NOW OR HEREAFTER, BY REASON OF SUCH PARTY’S PRESENT OR FUTURE DOMICILE, OR OTHERWISE, MAY BE AVAILABLE TO IT.

10.8 Waiver of Trial by Jury. BECAUSE DISPUTES ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH COMPLEX FINANCIAL TRANSACTIONS ARE MOST QUICKLY AND ECONOMICALLY RESOLVED BY AN EXPERIENCED AND EXPERT PERSON AND PARTIES WISH APPLICABLE STATE AND FEDERAL LAWS TO APPLY (RATHER THAN ARBITRATION RULES), THE PARTIES DESIRE THAT THEIR DISPUTES BE RESOLVED BY A JUDGE APPLYING SUCH APPLICABLE LAWS. THEREFORE, TO ACHIEVE THE BEST COMBINATION OF THE BENEFITS OF THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM AND OF ARBITRATION, AND UNDERSTANDING THEY ARE WAIVING A CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT, EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY KNOWINGLY, INTENTIONALLY AND VOLUNTARILY, WITH AND UPON THE ADVICE OF COMPETENT COUNSEL, WAIVES, RELINQUISHES AND FOREVER FORGOES THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT OR OTHER PROCEEDING BASED UPON, ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY RELATING TO (a) THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE AMENDMENT HEREOF, OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, OR (b) ANY CONDUCT, ACT OR OMISSION OF THE PARTIES OR THEIR AFFILIATES (OR ANY OF THEM) WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE AMENDMENT HEREOF, WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE,

REGARDLESS OF WHICH PARTY INITIATES SUCH ACTION, SUIT OR OTHER PROCEEDING; AND EACH PARTY HEREBY AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH ACTION, SUIT OR OTHER PROCEEDING SHALL BE DECIDED BY A COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY, AND THAT ANY PARTY MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS SECTION WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF THE PARTIES TO THE WAIVER OF ANY RIGHT THEY MIGHT OTHERWISE HAVE TO TRIAL BY JURY.

10.9 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts (delivery of which may occur via facsimile), each of which shall be binding as of the date first written above, and, when delivered, all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument. A facsimile signature or electronically scanned copy of a signature shall constitute and shall be deemed to be sufficient evidence of a Party’s execution of this Agreement, without necessity of further proof. Each such copy shall be deemed an original, and it shall not be necessary in making proof of this Agreement to produce or account for more than one such counterpart.

10.10 Invalidity. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced under any applicable Law in any particular respect or under any particular circumstances, then, so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any Party, (a) such term or provision shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect in all other respects and under all other circumstances, and (b) all other terms, conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner so that the transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the fullest extent possible.

10.11 Negotiated Agreement. The Parties hereby acknowledge that the terms and language of this Agreement were the result of negotiations among the Parties and, as a result, there shall be no presumption that any ambiguities in this Agreement shall be resolved against any particular Party. Any controversy over construction of this Agreement shall be decided without regard to events of authorship or negotiation.

10.12 Assignment. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. In addition, it is the intent of the parties that the Indemnitees that are not a party hereto be third party beneficiaries of Article IX of this Agreement. Buyer, the Company or any Seller may not assign, transfer or delegate any of their rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein, by operation of law or otherwise, without the prior written consent of the other Parties; provided, that Buyer may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement to any wholly owned affiliate of Gaiam, Inc.

10.13 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable under present or future applicable Laws during the term thereof, such provision shall be fully severable, this Agreement shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part thereof, and the remaining provisions thereof shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be affected by the illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision or by its severance therefrom.

Furthermore, in lieu of such illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision there shall be added automatically as a part of this Agreement a legal, valid, and enforceable provision as similar in terms to the illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision as may be possible, which shall to the greatest extent possible effect the original intent of the parties.

10.14 Further Assurances. From time to time after the Closing, each Party will timely execute and deliver to the other such instruments of sale, transfer, conveyance, assignment and delivery, and such consents, assurances, powers of attorney and other instruments, as may be reasonably requested by such Party or its counsel in order to vest in Buyer all right, title and interest of Sellers in and to the Stock and otherwise in order to carry out the purpose and intent of this Agreement.

10.15 Mutual Releases. Each Seller, for himself or herself and his or her Affiliates, heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns on the one hand, and the Company, for itself and Buyer and their Affiliates, agents, successors and assigns on the other hand (collectively, the “Releasors”), hereby forever fully and irrevocably releases and discharges each other and each others’ subsidiaries, parent and their respective successors, directors, officers, employees, agents, and representatives (collectively, the “Released Parties”) from any and all actions, suits, claims, demands, debts, sums of money, accounts, reckonings, bonds, bills, covenants, Contracts, controversies, promises, judgments, Liabilities or obligations of any kind whatsoever in law or equity and causes of action of every kind and nature, or otherwise (including, claims for damages, costs, expenses, and attorneys’, brokers’ and accountants’ fees and expenses) which the Releasors can, shall or may have against the Released Parties, whether known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, unanticipated as well as anticipated and that now exist or may hereafter accrue based on matters now unknown as well as known (collectively, the “Released Claims”), provided that Released Claims shall not include claims arising out of the breach or alleged breach of this Agreement or any other Transaction Documents or claims resulting from the fraud of any of the Released Parties. The Releasors hereby irrevocably agree to refrain from directly or indirectly asserting any claim or demand or commencing (or causing to be commenced) any suit, action, or proceeding of any kind, in any court or before any tribunal, against any Released Party based upon any Released Claim. This release shall be effective as of the consummation of the Closing.
