If the parties are unable to mutually agree upon a consulting firm or an accounting firm, Buyer and Seller shall select by lot a reputable accounting or consulting firm. The parties shall instruct the consulting firm or accounting firm ultimately agreed upon or selected by lot under this Section 2.3(c) (the “Arbitrator”) to make a final determination of the Closing Indebtedness, the Closing Net Working Capital, the Closing Seller Expenses and the resulting Purchase Price calculated with reference to such amounts to the extent such amounts are in dispute, in accordance with the guidelines and procedures set forth in this Agreement.

The parties shall also instruct the Arbitrator to make its determination based solely on presentations by the Buyer and the Seller which are in accordance with the guidelines and procedures set forth in this Agreement (i.e., not on the basis of an independent review).

Parent and Seller shall not have any obligation to indemnify any Buyer Party from and against any Adverse Consequences pursuant to clauses (i), (iii) or (vii) above until the Buyer Parties have suffered Adverse Consequences by reason of any individual breaches, or groups of breaches arising out of the same or similar facts, events or circumstances (but solely with respect to the fourth sentence of Section 4.5, including only individual breaches or groups of breaches arising out of the same event) (“Group of Related Breaches”), equal to or exceeding Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000) (“De Minimis”) and the sum of all such breaches exceeds an aggregate deductible equal to Three Hundred Thousand Dollars ($300,000) (“Deductible”) (after which point, with respect to indemnification pursuant to any of clauses (i), (iii) or (vii) above, the Seller and Parent will be obligated only to indemnify the Buyer Parties from and against such further Adverse Consequences in excess of the Deductible up to the Cap proximately caused by reason of individual breaches or Groups of Related Breaches each equal to or exceeding the De Minimis); provided, further, for the sole purpose of determining the applicability and the amount of any Adverse Consequences that are the subject matter of a indemnification claim hereunder, the Deductible and De Minimis shall be the materiality standard for such purpose hereunder and, therefore, each representation and warranty contained in this Agreement shall be read for such purpose (and no other purpose) without regard to and without giving effect to any materiality or Material Adverse Effect standard or qualification contained in such provision (as if such standard or qualification were deleted from such provision)). The Parent and Seller will have no obligation to indemnify the Buyer Parties under this Agreement for any Adverse Consequences caused by pursuant to clauses (i), (iii) or (vii) above in excess of Nine Million Dollars ($9,000,000) (the “Cap”). The Deductible, De Minimis and Cap shall not apply to indemnity claims arising from a breach or inaccuracy of the representations and warranties contained in Section 3.1(a) (Organization of Parent and Seller), any of the first three sentences of Section 3.1(b) (Authorization of Transaction), Section 3.1(d) (Brokers’ Fees), Section 3.1(e) (Target Shares), the first sentence of Section 4.1 (Organization, Qualification and Corporate Power), Section 4.2 (Capitalization), Section 4.4 (Brokers’ Fees), the first sentence of Section 4.5 (Title to Assets; Asset Sufficiency), Section 4.6 (Subsidiaries), Section 4.7(c) (Financial Statements), Section 4.10 (Tax Matters), Section 4.18 (Certain Business Relationships) and 4.27 (Closing Date) with respect to Section 3.1(a), any of the first three sentences of Section 3.1(b), Section 3.1(d), Section 3.1(e), the first sentence of Section 4.1, Section 4.2, Section 4.4, the first sentence of Section 4.5, Section 4.6, Section 4.10 and Section 4.18, any Adverse Consequences for which shall be indemnified in the aggregate from the first dollar up to a maximum of the Purchase Price. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, Parent and Seller shall not be liable to the Buyer Parties for any (a) Adverse Consequences that are punitive (except to the extent constituting third party punitive claims), or (b) Adverse Consequences based upon “multiple of profits,” “multiple of earnings” or similar valuation methodology (including without limitation any Adverse Consequences in the nature of diminution in value of the Target Shares based upon or otherwise calculated in reference to any of the foregoing items described in clause (b) above).

8.3 Indemnification Provisions for Benefit of the Seller. In the event (i) the Buyer breaches any of its representations or warranties contained herein or in any certificate delivered by the Buyer pursuant to this Agreement, and, if there is an applicable survival period pursuant to Section 8.1 above, provided that the Seller makes a written claim for indemnification against the Buyer pursuant to Section 11.7 below within such survival period, (ii) or the Buyer breaches or fails to fulfill any covenant or agreement contained herein, or (iii) of any action, demand, proceeding, investigation or claim by any Person against or affecting any Seller Party (as hereinafter defined) which, if successful, would give rise to or evidence the existence of or relate to a breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements of Buyer under this Agreement, then the Buyer shall indemnify Parent, the Seller and their Affiliates, stockholders, officers, directors, employees, agents, partners, representatives, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Seller Parties”) and save and hold the Seller Parties harmless from and against and pay on behalf of or reimburse the Seller Parties as and when incurred for any Adverse Consequences the Seller Parties may suffer through and after the date of the claim for indemnification as a result of, in connection with, or by virtue of such breach.

8.4 Matters Involving Third Parties.

(a) If any third party shall notify a Party (the “Indemnified Party”) with respect to any matter (a “Third Party Claim”) which may give rise to a claim for indemnification against a other Party (the “Indemnifying Party”) under this Article 8, then the Indemnified Party shall promptly (and in any event within five business days after receiving notice of the Third Party Claim) notify the Indemnifying Party thereof in writing; provided that the failure to so notify an Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder except to the extent that (and only to the extent that) such failure shall have caused the damages for which the Indemnifying Party is obligated to be greater than such damages would have been had the Indemnified Party given the Indemnifying Party prompt notice hereunder.

(b) The Indemnifying Party will have the right (subject to the limitations below) at any time to assume and thereafter conduct the defense of the Third Party Claim by appointing a recognized and reputable counsel of its choice reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party to be the lead counsel in connection with such defense; provided, however, prior to the Indemnifying Party assuming control of such defense it shall first verify to the Indemnified Party in writing that such Indemnifying Party shall be fully responsible (with no reservation of any rights) for all liabilities and obligations relating to such claim for indemnification; and provided further, that:

(i) the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such claim and to employ counsel of its choice for such purpose; provided that the fees and expenses of such separate counsel shall be borne by the Indemnified Party (other than any fees and expenses of such separate counsel that are incurred prior to the date the Indemnifying Party effectively assumes control of such defense which, notwithstanding the foregoing, shall be borne by the Indemnifying Party);

(ii) the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to assume control of such defense (unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Indemnified Party) and shall pay the fees and expenses of counsel retained by the Indemnified Party if (1) the claim for indemnification relates to or arises in connection with any criminal or quasi-criminal proceeding, action, indictment, allegation or investigation; (2) the Indemnified Party reasonably believes an adverse determination with respect to the action, lawsuit, investigation, proceeding or other claim giving rise to such claim for indemnification would be materially detrimental to or materially injure the Indemnified Party’s reputation or future business prospects; (3) the claim seeks an injunction or equitable relief against the Indemnified Party; or (4) the Indemnified Party has been advised by counsel that a reasonable likelihood exists of a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party; and

(iii) If the Indemnifying Party shall control the defense of a Third Party Claim, it will not consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement of a Third Party Claim or cease to defend such claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party unless such judgment or proposed settlement or cessation involves or will result in only the payment of money damages and will expressly and unconditionally release the Indemnified Party from all liabilities and obligations with respect to such claim without prejudice and will not result in or impose an injunction or other equitable relief upon the Indemnified Party.

(c) Unless and until an Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of the Third Party Claim as provided in Section 8.4(b) above, however, the Indemnified Party may defend against the Third Party Claim in any manner it reasonably may deem appropriate; provided that the Indemnified Party may not enter into any settlement of a Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(d) Certain Waivers; etc. Each of Parent and Seller hereby agree that it shall not make any claim for indemnification against the Buyer, the Target or any of their respective Affiliates by reason of the fact that the Parent or Seller are or were, directly or indirectly, equityholders of the Target or any of its Subsidiaries (whether such claim is for judgments, damages, penalties, fines, costs, amounts paid in settlement, losses, expenses or otherwise and whether such claim is pursuant to any statute, charter document, bylaw, agreement or otherwise) with respect to any action, suit, proceeding, complaint, claim or demand brought by any of the Buyer Parties against the Seller or Parent pursuant to this Agreement or applicable law or otherwise, and each of the Parent and Seller hereby acknowledges and agrees that it shall not have any claim or right to contribution or indemnity from the Target or any of its Affiliates with respect to any amounts paid by it pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise. Effective upon the Closing, each of the Parent and Seller hereby irrevocably waives, releases and discharges the Target and its Subsidiaries from any and all liabilities and obligations to it of any kind or nature whatsoever, whether in its capacity as a stockholder of the Target or any of its Subsidiaries or otherwise (including in respect of any rights of contribution or indemnification), in each case whether absolute or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, known or unknown, and whether arising under any agreement or understanding (other than this Agreement and any of the other agreements executed and delivered in connection herewith) or otherwise at law or equity, and each of the Seller and Parent agrees that it shall not seek to recover any amounts in connection therewith or thereunder from the Target or any of its Subsidiaries. In no event shall the Buyer, Target or any of their respective Subsidiaries have any liability whatsoever to the Seller or Parent for any breaches of the representations, warranties, agreements or covenants of the Target hereunder, and in any event none of the Seller or Parent may seek contribution or indemnification from the Buyer, Target or any of their respective Subsidiaries in respect of any payments required to be made by either Seller or Parent pursuant to this Agreement.

8.5 Insurance Proceeds. To the extent that an indemnified party receives insurance proceeds as a result of any Adverse Consequences, the indemnified party shall pay the amount of such insurance proceeds to the indemnifying party promptly after such insurance proceeds are actually received by the indemnified party less the sum of (i) any costs incurred in the collection thereof, (ii) any amounts actually paid by the indemnified party as a result of such Adverse Consequences as premiums retroactively assessed under any applicable provisions of insurance policies that cover such Adverse Consequences (in whole or in part) and (iii) the present value of any increases in insurance premiums on account of such Adverse Consequences, in the cases of clauses (ii) and (iii) above as identified by the applicable insurance company as relating to such Adverse Consequences or as otherwise reasonably apparent; provided that (i) the indemnifying party shall not be entitled to any such net insurance proceeds in excess of the indemnification payment or payments actually received from the indemnifying party by the indemnified party with respect to such Adverse Consequences, and (ii) the indemnifying party shall only be entitled to such net insurance proceeds to the extent of any amounts actually received from the indemnifying party by the indemnified party with respect to such Adverse Consequences plus the amount of such insurance proceeds exceed the amount of such Adverse Consequences to the indemnified party. At the request of the indemnifying party, the indemnified party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make a claim against its insurance carrier with respect to such Adverse Consequences (but shall not be obligated to take any other action, including without limitation commencing or threatening a lawsuit) unless the indemnified party reasonably believes that submission of such a claim could cause (x) the premiums of such Person’s insurance policy to be materially increased or (y) the insurance carrier to cancel any insurance policy.

8.6 Exclusive Remedy. The Buyer and the Seller acknowledge and agree that the foregoing indemnification provisions in this Article 8 and in Article 10, shall be the exclusive remedy of the Buyer and the Parent and Seller with respect to claims for monetary relief with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, except for any Adverse Consequences incurred as a result of fraud of any Party. In furtherance of the foregoing, each Party hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, any and all other rights, claims and causes of action it may have, from and after the Closing, against the other Party hereto relating to the subject matter of this Agreement except as set forth in the preceding sentence. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, nothing in this Section 8.6 shall restrict any Party’s ability to seek equitable or injunctive relief, including specific performance. Neither Party shall have any liability to the other for any punitive damages; provided, however, that this exclusion of punitive damages does not apply to any such damages sought by third parties against an Indemnified Party in connection with Adverse Consequences that may be indemnified pursuant to this Article 8 in connection with a Third Party Claim; provided, further, that all such punitive damages shall nevertheless remain subject to the limitations on the Parties’ indemnification obligations provided in this Article 8, including the Deductible, De Minimis and Cap (to the extent such limitations are otherwise applicable to such Third Party Claim).

8.7 Environmental Matters. Without limiting the generality of Section 8.6, above, the Buyer understands and agrees that its right to indemnification under Section 8.2 shall constitute its sole and exclusive remedy against the Seller with respect to any claims for monetary relief with respect to environmental, health, or safety matter relating to the past, current or future facilities, properties or operations of the Target, its Subsidiaries, and all of their respective predecessors or Affiliates, including without limitation any such matter arising under any Environmental, Health, and Safety Requirements. Aside from their respective rights to indemnification as set forth in this Agreement, the Buyer, Parent and the Seller hereby waive any right to seek contribution, cost recovery, damages, or any other recourse or remedy and hereby release each other from any claim, demand or liability with respect to any environmental, health, or safety matter arising at law or in equity, including without limitation any arising under any Environmental, Health, and Safety Requirements and including without limitation any arising under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act, any analogous state law, or the common law.

8.8 Manner of Payment.
