If the parties cannot resolve such dispute within such thirty (30) day period (the “Disputed Items”), and the Seller or the Buyer so requests by notice in writing to the other, then, within five (5) Business Days following delivery of such request, the Seller and the Buyer shall engage Citrin Cooperman & Company, LLP  or if Citrin Cooperman & Company, LLP is unable or unwilling to accept such engagement (whether as a result of conflicts or otherwise), a nationally-recognized accounting firm as is reasonably agreed to by the Seller and the Buyer (in any case, the “Arbitrator”) to resolve the Disputed Items.  The Seller and the Buyer shall execute any engagement or similar agreement reasonably requested by the Arbitrator.  A single partner of the Arbitrator selected by the Arbitrator in accordance with its normal procedures shall act for the Arbitrator in connection with such engagement.  The Seller and the Buyer shall instruct the Arbitrator to render, within thirty (30) days following its engagement, a written determination and report (based solely on presentations by the Seller and the Buyer to the Arbitrator, and not by independent review) as to the Disputed Items (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any item that is not set forth in a timely Objection Notice) and the resulting calculation of the Earnout Payment Calculation and the calculation of Additional Earnout.  The Arbitrator shall have no authority to resolve any other issues that may arise in connection with this Agreement, including whether the Objection Notice was delivered within the Objection Period.  In determining each Disputed Item, the Arbitrator may not assign a value to such item greater than the greatest value, or lower than the lowest value, claimed for such item by either the Buyer in such Adjustment Report or the Seller in such Objection Notice.  The Seller and the Buyer shall cooperate with the Arbitrator in making its determination and such determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Parties absent fraud or manifest error.  The fees and disbursements of the Arbitrator shall be paid by the Seller, on the one hand, and by the Buyer, on the other hand, on an inversely proportional basis, based upon the relative difference between the amounts in dispute submitted to the Arbitrator and the Arbitrator’s determination of such amounts.  Each of the Buyer and the Seller shall pay its own fees and expenses related to such determination.  For the avoidance of doubt, whether or not an Arbitrator is engaged, (A) each item that was raised in a timely Objection Notice but that is a not a Disputed Item shall have the value as was agreed to between the Seller and the Buyer, (B) each item that was not raised in a timely Objection Notice shall have the value set forth in the Adjustment Report, and (C) each item that was raised in neither a timely Objection Notice nor an Adjustment Report shall have the value set forth in the Estimated Statement. In the event that the Seller fails to deliver the Earnout Dispute Notice within the ten (10) day time period set forth in this subsection, the Earnout Payment Calculation and the calculation of Additional Earnout shall be deemed final and conclusive. In the event that the Seller does deliver an Earnout Dispute Notice, the Buyer shall pay to the Seller on or before ten (10) days following the resolution of the dispute raised in the Earnout Dispute Notice, the Earnout Payment agreed to by the Parties or specified by the Arbitrator, as applicable.

Upon no less than fifteen (15) Business Days’ notice and not more than once calendar year, Buyer shall permit a certified public accounting firm selected by the Seller at the Seller’s sole expense to have access during normal business hours to such records of the Buyer as may be reasonably necessary to verify the accuracy and completeness of the Earnout Payment and the Additional Earnout.  The accounting firm selected by the Seller shall prepare a report stating whether the calculation of Earnout Payment and the Additional Earnout were correct or whether and to what extent an overcharge or underpayment was made. The Seller shall provide the Buyer with the accounting firm’s written report within thirty (30) days of completion of such report.  If the accounting firm concludes that the Buyer underpaid the Additional Earnout to the Seller, then the Buyer shall pay the amount due within thirty (30) days after the day the Seller delivers the accounting firm’s written report to the Buyer.  If the accounting firm concludes that the Buyer overpaid the Additional Earnout to the Seller, then the Seller shall pay the amount due within thirty (30) days after the day the Seller delivers the accounting firm’s written report to the Buyer.  The Seller shall bear the full cost of such audit unless such audit discloses that the underpayment of the Earnout Payment and the Additional Earnout by the Buyer for the period audited is greater than 5% from the amount actually paid, in which case:  (i) the Buyer shall pay the fees and expenses charged by the accounting firm; (ii) the Buyer shall pay interest on the amount of the underpayment at the rate of 10% per annum from the time when such underpayment was originally due to the Seller; and (iii) thereafter the Seller shall be permitted to conduct the audit as set forth in this Section 2(i) no more than once each fiscal quarter.

Federal Securities Law Matters.

The Seller, and each Person to whom the Shares may be transferred by the Seller, is an “accredited investor” as defined in Regulation D under the Securities Act and will be acquiring the Shares for his, her or its own account, for investment and not with a view to distribution or sale, or for the account of any other Person.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements (but without limiting the representations and warranties set forth herein and therein), to the extent that the purchase, assumption, or other conveyance by the Seller to the Buyer of any Purchased Asset or Assumed Liability hereunder would require Consent of any Governmental Authority or under any Contract, in each case which Consent is not obtained prior to the Closing, then for so long as such Consent is not obtained or otherwise satisfied, such Purchased Asset or Assumed Liability (each, a “Non‑Assignable Item”) shall be deemed to not have been purchased, assumed, or otherwise conveyed hereunder and shall not constitute a Purchased Asset or Assumed Liability, and instead shall constitute an Excluded Asset or an Excluded Liability, as applicable.

From and after the Closing, Seller shall, at Buyer’s cost and expense, use its reasonable best efforts to assist the Buyer in obtaining or otherwise satisfying all Consents required in connection with the Contemplated Transactions, including by paying any reasonable costs of, or consideration to, any third party in order to obtain or otherwise satisfy such Consents.  For so long as any such Consent is not obtained or otherwise satisfied, the Seller shall, at its sole cost and expense, use its reasonable best efforts to provide the Buyer with substantially the same economic and operational benefits of any Non‑Assignable Item (that would, if the applicable Consent were obtained or otherwise satisfied, constitute a Purchased Asset) as the Seller received prior to the Closing as a result of such Non‑Assignable Item (for example, by way of subleasing, sublicensing, or subcontracting the applicable Non‑Assignable Item).
 
36


3.
If and when any Consent with respect to a Non‑Assignable Item is obtained or otherwise satisfied, such Non‑Assignable Item shall, without the requirement of any further action, automatically be deemed to have been purchased, assumed, or otherwise conveyed hereunder, as applicable, and shall thereupon cease to constitute a Non‑Assignable Item, Excluded Asset, or Excluded Liability, and instead shall constitute a Purchased Asset or Assumed Liability, as applicable, and the representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements with respect to Purchased Assets or Assumed Liabilities, as applicable, shall be deemed to apply to such item.  The Seller shall take such further actions and execute, deliver, and file such further documents as may be reasonably requested by the Buyer to evidence the foregoing, without the payment of additional consideration.

4.
Seller and each Principal hereby agree that all restrictions set forth in clause (i) above, including those relating to the duration of the Restricted Period and the scope of the Restricted Territory, are necessary and fundamental to the protection of the Buyer and its operation of the Business purchased hereunder, are reasonable and valid, and constitute a material inducement for the Buyer to enter into this Agreement and each Ancillary Agreement and to consummate the Contemplated Transactions.  To the extent that any court of competent jurisdiction holds that the duration, scope, or area restrictions set forth in clause (i) above are unreasonable under circumstances then existing, the Parties agree that the maximum duration, scope, or area reasonable under such circumstances shall be substituted for the stated duration, scope, or area and that such court shall be permitted, and this Agreement shall automatically be revised, to modify the restrictions set forth in clause (i) above to cover the maximum period, scope and area permitted by law or equity.

The Indemnifying Party Representative shall have the right (but not the obligation), to be exercised within ten (10) Business Days following its receipt of the Third Party Claim Notice by delivering written notice to the Indemnified Party Representative, to assume and thereafter conduct and control the defense of such Third Party Claim (with counsel of such Indemnifying Party Representative’s choice that is reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party Representative), but only if and for so long as (1) such Indemnifying Party Representative acknowledges in a signed writing (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall be deemed to be binding on behalf of all Indemnifying Parties and irrevocable) that the Indemnifying Party(ies) shall be deemed to be liable for all Losses with respect to such Third Party Claim, (2) such Third Party Claim does not seek monetary damages in an amount in excess of the remaining amount for which the Indemnifying Party(ies) could be liable by virtue of the limitations set forth in Section 7(f)(i)(B), Section 7(g)(B), or any other caps on indemnifiable amounts expressly set forth herein, (3) such Indemnifying Party Representative is conducting and controlling such defense diligently and in good faith, (4) if both an Indemnified Party and an Indemnifying Party are named (by impleader or otherwise) in such Third Party Claim, then there are no material legal defenses available to an Indemnified Party the assertion of which would be adverse to the interests of an Indemnifying Party, (5) such Third Party Claim has not been brought by a Material Customer or Material Supplier, (6) such Third Party Claim does not allege fraud or criminal activity, (7) such Third Party Claim does not seek equitable remedies, and (8) such Third Party Claim, if adversely determined, would not reasonably be expected to result in a material adverse effect as to an Indemnified Party and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole.  If such Indemnifying Party Representative assumes the defense of such Third Party Claim, then, regardless of the outcome of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party(ies) shall bear all costs and expenses incurred by the Indemnifying Party Representative in connection with such defense.  For so long as such Indemnifying Party Representative is conducting and controlling such defense, (I) each Indemnified Party shall have the right, but not the obligation, to participate in such defense with separate counsel of its choosing at its sole cost and expense (or at the Indemnifying Parties’ sole cost and expense if there are any conflicts of interests with respect to such defense as between any Indemnified Party and any Indemnifying Party), and (II) each Indemnified Party shall cooperate with such Indemnifying Party Representative in such defense and make available to such Indemnifying Party Representative and its Representatives, at the Indemnifying Party’s(ies’) sole cost and expense, all witnesses, pertinent records, materials and information in or under such Indemnified Party’s possession or control relating thereto as may be reasonably requested by such Indemnifying Party Representative.  The Indemnifying Party Representative shall not be permitted to consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to such Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party Representative, provided that such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld unless such judgment or settlement (w) involves the admission of fraudulent or criminal wrongdoing on the part of any Indemnified Party, (x) imposes equitable relief upon any Indemnified Party, (y) imposes any monetary damages on any Indemnified Party except to the extent that the Indemnifying Parties are required under this Section 7 (after giving effect to all applicable limitations set forth herein), and have the funds available, to pay such damages in their entirety, or (z) does not contain a complete and unconditional release of each applicable Indemnified Party from all liability with respect to such Third Party Claim.
 
45


3.
Unless and until the Indemnifying Party Representative assumes the defense of any Third Party Claim as provided in Section 7(d)(ii)(B), each applicable Indemnified Party may defend against such Third Party Claim in any manner it may reasonably deem appropriate (with counsel of such Indemnified Party’s choice), in which case each Indemnifying Party shall cooperate with such Indemnified Party in such defense and make available to such Indemnified Party and its Representatives all witnesses, pertinent records, materials, and information in or under such Indemnifying Party’s possession or control relating thereto as may be reasonably requested by such Indemnified Party.  The conduct of such defense by such Indemnified Party shall not be construed to be a waiver of such Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification with respect to such Third Party Claim.  No Indemnified Party shall be permitted to consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to such Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of such Indemnifying Party Representative (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed).

2.
In calculating the amount of Losses of any Indemnified Party, there shall be a deduction for the amount of any insurance proceeds actually received by such Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates amounting to a mitigation of such Losses (net of any related deductibles and actual and/or reasonably projected increases in premiums) (“Mitigating Payments”).  Without duplication of the foregoing, in the event that any Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates actually receives any Mitigating Payments in respect of any Losses subsequent to the receipt by such Indemnified Party of any indemnification payment hereunder in respect of such Losses, such Indemnified Party shall promptly make appropriate refunds to the appropriate Indemnifying Party in an aggregate amount equal to the lesser of (A) the amount of such subsequent Mitigating Payments, and (B) the amount of such indemnification payments received hereunder in respect of such Losses.
