Section 3.10 Financial Statements; SEC Filings.
 
(a) JMC’s financial statements contained in its periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, (the “Financial Statements”) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) applied on a consistent basis throughout the periods indicated and with each other, except that those of the Financial Statements that are not audited do not contain all footnotes required by U.S. GAAP. The Financial Statements fairly present the financial condition and operating results of JMC as of the dates, and for the periods, indicated therein, subject to normal year-end audit adjustments. Except as set forth in the Financial Statements, JMC has no material liabilities (contingent or otherwise). JMC is not a guarantor or indemnitor of any indebtedness of any other person, firm or corporation. JMC maintains and will continue to maintain until the Closing a standard system of accounting established and administered in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Each of the Public Reports has complied with the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, and the Sarbanes/Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Sarbanes/Oxley Act”) and/or regulations promulgated thereunder, as the case may be, in all material respects.

The financial statements, including the notes thereto, included in the Public Reports have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP applied on a consistent basis throughout the periods covered thereby and present fairly the financial condition of JMC as of such dates and the results of operations of JMC for such periods; provided, however, that the financial statements for all interim periods are subject to normal year-end adjustments and lack certain footnotes and other presentation items otherwise required by GAAP. To the knowledge of JMC there is no event, fact or circumstance that would cause any certification signed by any officer of JMC in connection with any Public Report pursuant to the Sarbanes/Oxley Act to be untrue, inaccurate or incorrect in any respect. The Common Stock of JMC covered by the Form 10-SB is validly, properly and effectively registered under the Exchange Act in accordance with all applicable federal securities laws and trades on the OTC Bulletin Board. There is no revocation order, suspension order, injunction or other proceeding or law affecting the effectiveness of JMC’s Exchange Act registration or the trading of its Common Stock. The consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement do not conflict with and will not result in any violation of any NASD or OTC Bulletin Board trading requirement or standard applicable to JMC or its Common Stock.

In the event that Little desires to include all or any part of the Little Shares in any such registration statement, he shall, within fifteen (15) days after the above-described notice from JMC, so notify JMC in writing. Such notice shall state the intended method of disposition of the Little Shares. If Little decides not to include all of the Little Shares its in any registration statement thereafter filed by JMC, Little shall nevertheless continue to have the right to include all or part of the Little Shares in any subsequent registration statement or registration statements as may be filed by JMC with respect to offerings of its securities, all upon the terms and conditions set forth herein.

ARTICLE VI

INDEMNIFICATION

Section 6.1 Indemnification by JMC . JMC, notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, shall indemnify and hold harmless each of Zhang, Innomind and The Innomind Trust, together with their respective officers, directors, agents and employees, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees) and expenses (collectively, "Losses"), as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final judgment not subject to appeal or review, arising out of or in connection with: (i) the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement by JMC; or (ii) any violation or breach by JMC of any covenant, agreement, representation or warranty of JMC; or (iii) any representation or warranty of JMC contained in this Agreement being or becoming untrue.

Section 6.2 Indemnification by Zhang and Innomind. Each of Zhang and Innomind shall severally indemnify and hold harmless JMC and JMC’s directors, officers, agents and employees, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against all Losses (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final judgment not subject to appeal or review) arising out of or in connection with: (i) the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement by JMC; or (ii) any violation or breach by Zhang and/or Innomind of any covenant, agreement, representation or warranty of JMC; or (iii) any representation or warranty of Zhang and/or Innomind contained in this Agreement being or becoming untrue.
 
Section 6.3 Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. If any lawsuit, arbitration or other judicial or administrative proceeding (a “Proceeding”) shall be brought or asserted against any individual or entity (a “Person”) entitled to indemnity hereunder (an "Indemnified Party"), such Indemnified Party promptly shall notify the Person from whom indemnity is sought (the "Indemnifying Party”) in writing, and the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to assume the defense thereof, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and the payment of all fees and expenses incurred in connection with defense thereof; provided, that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give such notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations or liabilities pursuant to this Agreement, except (and only) to the extent that it shall be finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction (which determination is not subject to appeal or further review) that such failure shall have proximately and materially adversely prejudiced the Indemnifying Party. An Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such Proceeding and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party or Parties unless: (i) the Indemnifying Party has agreed in writing to pay such fees and expenses; or (ii) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed promptly to assume the defense of such Proceeding and to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party in any such Proceeding; or (iii) the named parties to any such Proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, and such parties shall have been advised by counsel that a conflict of interest is likely to exist if the same counsel were to represent such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party (in which case, if such Indemnified Party notifies the Indemnifying Party in writing that it elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume the defense thereof and such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying Party). The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any such Proceeding effected without its written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. No Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened Proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Party is a party and indemnity has been sought hereunder, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such Proceeding. All fees and expenses of the Indemnified Party (including reasonable fees and expenses to the extent incurred in connection with investigating or preparing to defend such Proceeding in a manner not inconsistent with this Section) shall be paid to the Indemnified Party within ten (10) business days of written notice thereof to the Indemnifying Party (regardless of whether it is ultimately determined that an Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification hereunder; provided, that the Indemnified Party shall reimburse all such fees and expenses to the extent it is finally judicially determined that such Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification hereunder).

 
18

 
 
Section 6.4 Contribution. If a claim for indemnification under Section 6.1 or 6.2 is due but unavailable to an Indemnified Party because of a failure or refusal of a governmental authority to enforce such indemnification in accordance with its terms (by reason of public policy or otherwise), then each Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such Losses, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Indemnifying Party on the one hand and the Indemnified Party on the other from the Share Exchange and other transactions contemplated by this Agreement. If, but only if, the allocation provided by the foregoing sentence is not permitted by applicable law, the allocation of contribution shall be made in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in the foregoing sentence but also the relative fault, as applicable, of the Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party in connection with the actions, statements or omissions that resulted in such Losses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action, statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of any Losses shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 6.3, any reasonable attorneys' or other reasonable fees or expenses incurred by such party in connection with any Proceeding to the extent such party would have been indemnified for such fees or expenses if the indemnification provided for in this Section was available to such party in accordance with its terms. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section are in addition to any liability that the Indemnifying Parties may have to the Indemnified Parties pursuant to the law.
