(iii)    during the period from and after the day after the *** (***) anniversary of the First Interbody Commercialization Date and ending upon the satisfaction of either of the conditions set forth in Section 2.6(d), an amount equal to *** percent (***%) of Net Sales in such period of any and all Interbody Products; and
(iv)    during the period commencing on the First Non-Interbody Commercialization Date and ending upon the satisfaction of either of the conditions set forth in Section 2.6(d), an amount equal to *** percent (***%) of Net Sales in such period of any and all Non-Interbody Products that are subject to Valid Claims.  
(b)    Buyer shall pay the Contingent Asset Purchase Payments set forth in Section 2.6(a) within sixty (60) days following each calendar quarter which ends following the First Interbody Commercialization Date (with respect to Interbody Products) or First Non-Interbody Commercialization Date (with respect to Non-Interbody Products) for Net Sales in the previous calendar quarter period. Each Contingent Asset Purchase Payment under this Section 2.6 shall be accompanied by a statement of the amount of Net Sales during the applicable period and such other information as is necessary to determine the amount of the payments to be made to Seller hereunder. All Contingent Asset Purchase Payments payable to Seller shall be paid in U.S. Dollars.

(c)    Buyer shall provide to Seller *** written updates with respect to its progress towards completing the Milestones and shall keep (and shall ensure that its Affiliates keep) full and accurate books and records of all items necessary to correctly calculate the payments due to Seller hereunder for the latest four (4) calendar years.

If such accounting firm concludes that Contingent Asset Purchase Payments have been underpaid, then, unless Buyer’s independent accounting firm disagrees with such conclusion, Buyer shall pay, within thirty (30) days of the date that Seller advises Buyer in writing of such unpaid Contingent Asset Purchase Payments, all such unpaid Contingent Asset Purchase Payments, plus interest at a rate of the greater of (a) the U.S. Prime Rate, as reported in The Wall Street Journal, Eastern Edition, plus five percent (5%), and (b) seven percent (7%) per annum, for the period between such unpaid Contingent Asset Purchase Payments should have been paid until such amounts are actually paid. If such accounting firm concludes that Contingent Asset Purchase Payments have been overpaid, then Buyer shall be entitled to offset future Contingent Asset Purchase Payments by the amount so overpaid. All expenses relating to such audit shall be borne by Seller, unless such audit discloses

an underpayment in excess of five percent (5%) with respect to a Contingent Asset Purchase Payment calculation, in which case such expenses shall be paid by Buyer.

For purposes of determining whether Buyer has met the payment threshold set forth in clause (i) of this Section 2.6(d) or the payment threshold set forth in clause (ii) of this Section 2.6(d), any amounts set off by Buyer pursuant to its Setoff Rights (and subject to the limitations thereon set forth herein) shall be included in the calculation thereof.
(e)    It is agreed and clarified that a Non-Interbody Product shall be deemed “subject to a Valid Claim” ***.
2.7    Seller Acknowledgement; Setoff Rights.
(a)    Seller expressly acknowledges and agrees that (i) upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, Buyer shall have the right to use the Purchased Assets and operate the Medical Device Business and to use (or not use) the Purchased Assets in any way that Buyer (and its Affiliates) deems appropriate in Buyer’s sole and absolute discretion, (ii) the receipt of any Milestone Payments and Contingent Asset Purchase Payments is speculative and is subject to numerous factors outside the control of Buyer and Seller and there can be no assurance that Seller will receive any of the Milestone Payments or Contingent Asset Purchase Payments, and (iii) neither Buyer nor any of its Affiliates owes any implied duties to Seller (or its Affiliates) relating to Section 2.5, Section 2.6 or this Section 2.7.
(b)    Buyer shall have the right to setoff or deduct from any of the Milestone Payments and/or Contingent Asset Purchase Payments to satisfy (i) on a dollar-for-dollar basis, the indemnification obligations of Seller in accordance with, and subject to the limitations set forth in, Article 11, and (ii) on a ***-for-dollar basis, (A) the OCS Transfer Amount if Buyer elects to make the Buyer OCS Payment Election, provided that Buyer shall not be entitled to make such an election until after the failure of Seller to pay the OCS Transfer Amount at least three (3) Business Days prior to the OCS Transfer Amount Payment Deadline (such rights, collectively, the “Setoff Rights”) and (B) without duplication, any amount paid by Buyer as part of the OCS Transfer Amount to OCS in excess of the aggregate sum of funding provided by the OCS to Seller Parent through the date hereof (including funding provided through the OCS incubator program in which the Seller Parent participated) plus interest accrued thereon if Buyer elects to not terminate this Agreement in accordance with Section 10.1(b)(iii).
2.8    Transfer Taxes. All sales, use, value-added, gross receipts, excise, registration, stamp duty, sales, transfer or other similar taxes or governmental fees (“Transfer Taxes”) imposed, levied or payable by reason of the signing of this Agreement, the transfer of assets and assumption of liabilities contemplated hereby or payment of any consideration hereunder, shall be paid by party required to pay such Taxes under applicable Legal Requirements.

2.9    Allocation of Purchase Price. On or before the thirtieth (30th) day of the month following the Initial Closing Date and Shares Issuance Date, Buyer shall deliver to Seller an allocation of the Initial Closing Cash Consideration and the Shares among the Purchased Assets (the “Purchase Price Allocation”). The Purchase Price Allocation shall be prepared by Buyer in good faith and in accordance with applicable Legal Requirements. Should Seller have any objections to the Purchase Price Allocation, Buyer and Seller shall work together in good faith for a period of thirty (30) days on a mutually acceptable Purchase Price Allocation. If Buyer and Seller cannot agree on such Purchase Price Allocation in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.9 prior to the expiration of such thirty (30) day period, the Purchase Price Allocation shall be as determined by Buyer in good faith and Buyer and Seller shall report such Purchase Price Allocation in the filing of all Tax Returns or other document with, or make any statement or declaration to, any Governmental Body that is inconsistent with such Purchase Price Allocation without the consent of the other party.
2.10    Withholding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, Buyer (or Buyer’s designee and/or payment agent) shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any consideration payable to Seller or any other Person pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold under any provision of national, federal, state, local or foreign Tax law or other Legal Requirement, or any applicable ruling or exemption from a Governmental Body; provided, however, to the extent such Seller or other Person provides Buyer with a Valid Certificate, Buyer will act in accordance with such Valid Certificate. If the Buyer so deducts or withholds any such amounts, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes under this Agreement as having been paid to the Seller or such other Person in respect of which Buyer made such deduction and withholding. In the event that Buyer concludes that it is required to deduct or withhold from any consideration payable to Seller or any other Person pursuant to this Agreement, Seller agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with Buyer to enable Buyer to make such withholding or deduction in accordance with any provision of national, federal, state, local or foreign Tax law or other Legal Requirement, including, without limitation, by obtaining any applicable payment documentation from any Governmental Body. “Valid Certificate” means a valid and applicable (in light of the timing, scope and the nature of the payment) exemption or confirmation issued by the relevant Governmental Body with respect to the proposed withholding and with respect to Seller or such other Person, which is sufficient to enable Buyer to conclude at its reasonable discretion that no withholding (or reduced withholding) is required with respect to the contemplated payment to the Seller or such other Person.

(a)    Subject to the limitations and provisions set forth in this Article 11, upon receipt by a party from whom indemnification is being sought pursuant to Section 11.1 (an “Indemnifying Person”) of a certificate signed by any officer (an “Officer’s Certificate”) of a Buyer Affiliate or a Seller Affiliate (an “Indemnified Person”) stating that Losses exist with respect to the indemnification obligations set forth in Section 11.1, and specifying in reasonable detail the individual items of such Losses included in the amount so stated (the “Claimed Amount”), the date each such item was paid, or properly accrued or arose, and the nature of the misrepresentation, breach of warranty, obligation, covenant or agreement to which such item is related, the Indemnified Person shall, subject to the provisions of this Article 11, be entitled to be indemnified in accordance with this Article 11; provided, however, that indemnification obligations pursuant to this Article 11 for misrepresentations or breaches of warranty under Article 4 or Article 5, or for breaches of covenants, obligations or agreements, shall only apply if the applicable Officer's Certificate stating the Claimed Amount is received by the Indemnifying Person during the period of survivability of the applicable representation, warranty, covenant, obligation or agreement, all as set forth in Section 11.5 below.

58




(b)    The Indemnifying Person shall have a period of thirty (30) days from and after delivery of any Officer’s Certificate to deliver to the Indemnified Person a response, in which the Indemnifying Person shall: (i) agree that the Indemnified Person is entitled to receive payment for all of the requested Losses or (ii) dispute that the Indemnified Person is entitled to receive payment for all the requested Losses.
(c)    If the Indemnifying Person disputes any claim or claims made in any Officer’s Certificate, the Indemnified Person shall have thirty (30) days to respond in a written statement to the objection of the Indemnifying Person. If after such thirty (30) day period there remains a dispute as to any claims, the Indemnified Person and the Indemnifying Person shall attempt in good faith for thirty (30) days to agree upon the rights of the respective parties with respect to each of such claims (the “Claims Period”). If the Indemnified Person and the Indemnifying Person should so agree, a memorandum setting forth such agreement shall be prepared and signed by Buyer and Seller.
11.3    Resolution of Conflicts. If no agreement can be reached after good faith negotiation between the parties pursuant to Section 11.2(c), either Buyer or Seller may initiate formal legal action in accordance with Section 12.14 to resolve such dispute. The decision of the arbitrators as to the validity and amount of any claim in such Officer’s Certificate shall be binding and conclusive upon the parties to this Agreement, and notwithstanding anything in Article 11 hereof, the parties shall be entitled to act in accordance with such decision.
11.4    Third-Party Claims.
(a)    In respect of any third party claim that is subject of a claim by an Indemnified Person for indemnification under this Article 11 (a “Third Party Claim”), the Indemnified Person shall, without qualification of the right to the Indemnified Person to be indemnified for indemnifiable Losses incurred in connection with such Third Party Claim, control the defense of the Third Party Claim and shall be entitled to appoint counsel for such defense (such counsel to be reasonably acceptable to the Indemnifying Person) and shall promptly inform the Indemnifying Person upon receipt of a Third Party Claim; provided, however, no delay in providing such notice shall affect an Indemnified Person’s rights hereunder, unless (and then only to the extent that) the Indemnifying Person is materially prejudiced thereby. No Indemnified Person shall consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or resolution of such Third Party Claim without the consent of the Indemnifying Person, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. The Indemnifying Person shall have the right to participate at its own expense in the defense of the liability asserted therein.
(b)    The Indemnified Person shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the Indemnifying Person copies of all material correspondence exchanged between the Indemnified Person and the applicable third party, as well as copies of all pleadings, responsive pleadings, motions and other similar legal documents and papers received or filed in connection the Third Party Claim. The parties hereto agree to reasonably cooperate with each other in connection
with the defense, negotiation or settlement of any Third Party Claim, including by attending such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials or appeals as may be reasonably requested in

59




connection therewith and providing reasonable access to each other’s relevant business records and other documents and employees.
11.5    Limitations on Indemnity.
(a)    Survival of Representations and Warranties and Covenants. All the representations and warranties of Seller contained in Article 4 and of Buyer in Article 5 shall survive the Closings hereunder and shall continue in full force and effect after such Closings for a period of eighteen (18) months after the Shares Issuance Date, after which they shall automatically expire; provided, however, that the representations and warranties in Sections 4.8 (Intellectual Property), 4.18 (FDA and Regulatory Matters) (collectively, the “Special Representations”) shall continue to survive after such Closings for a period of thirty (30) months after the Shares Issuance Date, after which they shall automatically expire; provided, however, that the representations and warranties in Sections 4.1 (Organization), 5.1 (Organization of Buyer), 4.2 (Authorization), 5.2 (Authorization), 4.13 (No Finder) and 4.21 (Investment Representations) and 5.6 (No Finder) (collectively, the “Fundamental Representations”) shall continue to survive after the Subsequent Closing Date until the expiration of all applicable statutes of limitations. All covenants of the parties set forth in Article 6 and Article 7 shall expire and be of no further force or effect as of the applicable Closing, except to the extent such covenants provide that they are to be performed after the applicable Closing.
(b)    Sources of Recovery by Buyer Affiliates; Caps.
(i)    Sources of Recovery by Buyer Affiliates. Recovery by the Buyer Affiliates with respect to claims for indemnification pursuant to Section 11.1(a) shall be subject to the caps set forth in Section 11.5(b)(ii) below and may be satisfied solely by exercise of the Setoff Rights set forth in clause (i) of Section 2.7(b). Buyer shall not have any rights to set off amounts due under this Agreement, except in accordance with the Setoff Rights. Buyer shall not have any rights to set off or deduct amounts due under this Agreement, except in accordance with the Setoff Rights.
(ii)    Caps on Indemnification by Seller.

(iii)    Caps on Indemnification by Buyer. In no event shall the Seller Affiliates be entitled to recover Losses for claims for indemnification (A) pursuant to Section 11.1(b)(iii) in excess of *** percent (***%) of the aggregate amounts actually paid to Seller or then earned by Seller or (B) pursuant to Sections 11.1(b) -(v), collectively, in excess of the aggregate amounts actually paid or payable to Seller under this Agreement; provided,

60




however, claims for indemnification involving fraud, willful breach or intentional misrepresentation on the part of Buyer shall be uncapped.
(iv)    For purposes of Sections 11.5(b)(ii) & (iii) above, and for further clarity, “aggregate amounts actually paid to Seller” shall include the Initial Closing Cash Consideration (but only after the Initial Closing Cash Consideration is paid to Seller Parent), the Shares (valued at $3,500,000) (but only after the Shares are issued to Seller Parent), and any Milestone Payments and Contingent Asset Purchase Payments actually theretofore paid to Seller and “then earned by Seller” shall include any Milestone Payments and Contingent Asset Purchase Payments theretofore earned by Seller in accordance with the terms of this Agreement but not yet paid to Seller.
11.6    Effect of Investigation. The right to indemnification, payment of Losses or for other remedies based on any representation, warranty, covenant or obligation of Seller contained in or made pursuant to this Agreement shall not be affected by any investigation conducted with respect to, or any knowledge acquired (or capable of being acquired) at any time, whether before or after the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the date any Closing occurs, with respect to the accuracy or inaccuracy of or compliance with, any such representation, warranty, covenant or obligation. The waiver of any condition to the obligation of Buyer to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, where such condition is based on the accuracy of any representation or warranty, or on the performance of or compliance with any covenant or obligation, shall not affect the right to indemnification, payment of Losses, or other remedy based on such representation, warranty, covenant or obligation.
11.7    Miscellaneous.
(a)    Notwithstanding anything else contained in this Agreement, under no circumstances shall an Indemnified Party be entitled to indemnification in connection with Losses that are indirect, consequential or punitive unless Losses that are indirect, consequential punitive are actually awarded to a third party by a court of competent jurisdiction and are paid by an Indemnified Person.
(b)    It is hereby clarified that Buyer Affiliates shall not be entitled to indemnification to the extent that the Losses suffered are duplicative with any royalties or other similar payments referred to clause (b) or clause (c) of the definition of Net Sales.
11.8    Exclusive Remedy. The provisions contained in this Article 11 are intended to provide the sole and exclusive remedy for the Buyer Affiliates and Seller Affiliates following the Initial Closing as to all Losses based on, arising out of or relating to this Agreement (it being understood that nothing in this Article 11 or elsewhere in this Agreement shall affect the parties’ rights to specific performance or other equitable remedies to enforce the parties’ obligations under this Agreement).

12.4    Successors and Assigns. The rights of any party under this Agreement shall not be assignable without the written consent of the other parties except that Buyer shall be permitted to assign its rights, but not its obligations, to an Affiliate of Buyer without obtaining any consent from the other parties; provided, however, Buyer may assign all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to: (i) an Affiliate of Buyer without the consent of Seller so long as such Affiliate is not less likely to be able to satisfy any remaining financial obligations hereunder than Buyer, or (ii) any other Person without the consent of Seller, in connection with the bona fide sale of all or substantially all of the Purchased Assets; provided further, if Buyer or any of its successors or permitted assigns transfers or conveys any Buyer Medical Device Product for which Milestone Payments and/or

63




Contingent Asset Purchase Payments may still be payable or all or substantially all of the Medical Device Business to any Person, including in connection with the transfer or conveyance of all or substantially all of Buyer’s properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Buyer shall assume all of the obligations set forth in this Agreement pertaining to the Milestone Payments and Contingent Asset Purchase Payments. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their successors and permitted assigns.
12.5    Access to Records after Closing Date. For a period of five (5) years after the Initial Closing Date, Buyer and its representatives shall have reasonable access to all of the information, books and records of the Medical Device Business which Seller or any of its Affiliates shall retain after the Initial Closing Date. Such access shall be afforded by Seller and its Affiliates upon receipt of reasonable advance notice and during normal business hours.
12.6    Entire Agreement; Amendments. This Agreement, the Schedules referred to herein, the documents delivered pursuant hereto and the Confidentiality Agreement contain the entire understanding of the parties hereto with regard to the subject matter contained herein or therein, and supersede all prior agreements or understandings, oral or written, between or among any of the parties hereto. This Agreement shall not be amended, modified or supplemented, except by a written instrument signed by an authorized representative of each of the parties hereto.
12.7    Interpretation. Article titles and headings to sections herein are inserted for convenience of reference only and are not intended to be a part of or to affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. The Schedules referred to herein shall be construed with and as an integral part of this Agreement to the same extent as if they were set forth verbatim herein.
12.8    Waivers. Any term or provision of this Agreement may be waived, or the time for its performance may be extended, by the party or parties entitled to the benefit thereof. Any such waiver shall be validly and sufficiently authorized for the purposes of this Agreement if, as to any party, it is authorized in writing by an authorized representative of such party. The failure of any party hereto to enforce at any time any provision of this Agreement shall not be construed to be a waiver of such provision, nor in any way to affect the validity of this Agreement or any part hereof or the right of any party thereafter to enforce each and every such provision. No waiver of any breach of this Agreement shall be held to constitute a waiver of any other or subsequent breach.
12.9    Expenses. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, all fees and expenses incurred in connection herewith including, without limitation, all legal, accounting, financial, advisory, consulting and all other fees and expenses of third parties (“Third Party Expenses”) incurred by a party in connection with the negotiation and consummation of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, shall be the obligation of the respective party incurring such fees and expenses. Seller’s Third Party Expenses shall be deemed “Retained Liabilities” hereunder.
12.10    Payments. Each of Seller Parent and Seller Subsidiary hereby direct that all payments made under this Agreement to Seller including the issuance of all of the Shares (and any Milestone Shares), be made to Seller Parent, not Seller Subsidiary. Buyer hereby acknowledges, based solely

64




on the representations and warranties set forth in Section 4.2(d), that the Purchased Assets are owned by Seller Parent only (and not Seller Subsidiary) and, therefore, Seller Subsidiary has no rights to receive any of the Initial Closing Cash Consideration, the Shares, the Milestone Payments (if any) and Contingent Asset Purchase Payments (if any).
12.11    Partial Invalidity. Wherever possible, each provision hereof shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable Legal Requirements, but in case any one or more of the provisions contained herein shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such provision or provisions shall be ineffective to the extent, but only to the extent, of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without invalidating the remainder of such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision or provisions or any other provisions hereof, unless such a construction would be unreasonable.
12.12    Specific Enforcement. Seller acknowledges and agrees that Buyer would be irreparably harmed and would not have any adequate remedy at law in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed by Seller in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. Accordingly Seller agrees that Buyer shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement without posting any bond, this being in addition to any other remedy to which Buyer is entitled at law or in equity.
12.13    Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, including facsimile counterparts, each of which shall be considered an original instrument, but all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement, and shall become binding when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties hereto and delivered to each of Seller and Buyer.
12.14    Further Assurances.
(a)    On each Closing Date, Seller shall (i) deliver to Buyer such other bills of sale, deeds, endorsements, assignments and other good and sufficient instruments of conveyance and transfer, in form reasonably satisfactory to Buyer and its counsel, as Buyer may reasonably request or as may be otherwise reasonably necessary to vest in Buyer all the right, title and interest of Seller in, to or under any or all of the Purchased Assets to be purchased at the applicable Closing, and (ii) take all steps as may be reasonably necessary to put Buyer in actual possession and control of all the Purchased Assets purchased at the applicable Closing.
(b)    From time to time following each Closing Date, Seller shall execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, to Buyer such other instruments of conveyance and transfer as Buyer may reasonably request or as otherwise may be reasonably necessary to more effectively convey and transfer to, and vest in, Buyer and put Buyer in possession of, any part of the Purchased Assets to be purchased at the applicable Closing, and in the case of licenses, certificates, approvals, authorizations, agreements, contracts, leases, easements and other commitments included in the Purchased Assets which cannot be transferred or assigned effectively without the consent of third parties which consent has not been obtained prior to the applicable Closing Date, Seller agrees to cooperate with Buyer at its request in endeavoring to obtain such

65




consent promptly, and if any such consent is unobtainable, to use its reasonable efforts to secure to Buyer the benefits thereof in some other manner (including the exercise of the rights of Seller thereunder).
12.15    Governing Law. Governing Law; Resolution of Conflicts; Arbitration.
(a)    This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York (USA), without regard applicable principles of conflicts of law, except that the arbitration clause in Section 12.14(b) and any arbitration hereunder shall be governed by the Arbitration Rules of the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law (“UNCITRAL Arbitration Rules”).  
(b)    Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or the breach thereof, including the determination of the scope of the agreement to arbitrate, shall be finally settled by arbitration in accordance with the UNCITRAL Arbitration Rules applicable at the time of submission of the dispute to arbitration. The American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”) shall be the appointing authority and shall appoint a panel of three (3) arbitrators. The arbitration case, including the appointment of arbitrators, shall be administered by the AAA in accordance with its “Procedures for Cases Under the UNCITRAL Arbitration Rules.” The place of the arbitration shall be New York, New York (USA), and the exclusive language to be used for the arbitral proceedings shall be English. Judgment upon any award(s) rendered by the arbitrators may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The arbitrators are authorized to include in their award an allocation to any party of such costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, as the arbitrators shall deem reasonable. The parties undertake to keep confidential all awards in their arbitration, together with all materials in the proceedings created for the purpose of the arbitration and all other documents produced by another party in the proceedings not otherwise in the public domain, save and to the extent that disclosure may be required of a party by legal duty, to protect or pursue a legal right or to enforce or challenge an award in legal proceedings before a court or other judicial authority. Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent any party from seeking provisional measures from any court of competent jurisdiction, and any such request shall not be deemed incompatible with the agreement to arbitrate or a waiver of the right to arbitrate.
12.16    Effect of Due Diligence. The fact that Buyer has conducted a due diligence investigation of the Medical Device Business prior to the date hereof shall in no way mitigate or qualify the representations and warranties of Seller set forth herein. Seller acknowledges and agrees that Buyer is relying on Seller’s representations and warranties in executing this Agreement and consummating the transactions contemplated hereby.
12.17    No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is for the sole benefit of the parties hereto and their permitted successors and assigns and nothing herein expressed or implied shall give or be construed to give any Person, other than the parties hereto and such permitted successors and assigns, any legal or equitable rights hereunder; provided, that the Seller Affiliates and Buyer Affiliates shall have the rights granted to them under Article 11.
12.18    Attorneys’ Fees. If any party to this Agreement brings an action to enforce its rights under this Agreement, the prevailing party (being the party prevailing in a final non-appealable

66




judgment in such action) shall be entitled to recover its costs and expenses, including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred in connection with such action, including any appeal of such action.
