Subject to any limitations set forth in this Article VIII, from and after the Closing Date until the expiration of the Survival Period, TSMI shall indemnify and hold harmless F Squared Hemp and the following Persons existing prior to the Effective Time: (a) F Squared Hemp’s officers, directors, agents and employees; and (b) each Person, if any, who controlled F Squared Hemp within the meaning of the Securities Act (each such Person and its heirs, executors, administrators, agents, successors and assigns is referred to herein as a “F Squared Hemp Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all Damages arising out of or relating to: (i) any breach of any representation or warranty made by TSMI or Merger Sub in this Agreement or any Transaction Document, and in any certificate delivered by TSMI or Merger Sub pursuant to this Agreement or any Transaction Document; (ii) any breach by TSMI or Merger Sub of any covenant, obligation or other agreement made by either of them in this Agreement or in any Transaction Document; or (iii) a third-party claim based on any acts or omissions by TSMI or Merger Sub. The foregoing are collectively referred to as the “F Squared Hemp Indemnity Claims.” F Squared Hemp Indemnity Claims together with the TSMI Indemnity Claims are collectively referred to as the “Indemnity Claims.”

 

Section 8.4 General Notice and Procedural Requirements for Indemnity Claims.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the party or person having the indemnity obligation under this Article VIII (the “Indemnifying Party”), shall be obligated to indemnify and hold harmless the Party or Person entitled to indemnity under this Article VIII (the “Indemnified Party”), only with respect to any Indemnity Claims of which the Indemnified Party notifies with specificity the Indemnifying Party in accordance with Section 9.7 of this Agreement and, if applicable, within the following time period: (i) with regard to any representation or warranty under this Agreement, prior to the end of the Survival Period of such representation or warranty (unless such Indemnity Claim relates to a claim arising prior to the termination of the Survival Period, in which case the time period shall be extended to thirty days after such Indemnity Claim is first received by an Indemnified Party); or (ii) with regard to any covenant under this Agreement which by its terms expires, prior to the end of the survival period relating to such covenant (unless such Indemnity Claim relates to a claim arising prior to the termination of the applicable survival period, in which case the time period shall be extended to thirty days after such Indemnity Claim is first received by an Indemnified Party).

 

Section 8.5 Notice and Procedural Requirements for Third Party Claims.

 

If a complaint, claim or legal action is brought by a third party (a “Third-Party Claim”) as to which an Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification, the Indemnified Party shall give written notice of such Third-Party Claim to the Indemnifying Party in accordance with Section 9.7 of this Agreement promptly after the Indemnified Party receives notice thereof, which notice shall include a copy of any letter, complaint or similar writing received by the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that any failure to provide or delay in providing such information shall not constitute a bar or defense to indemnification except to the extent the Indemnifying Party has been prejudiced thereby.

 

 
30
 
 

 

The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. After notice from the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party of the Indemnifying Party’s election so to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense of such Third-Party Claim except as hereinafter provided. If the Indemnifying Party elects to assume such defense and select counsel, the Indemnified Party may participate in such defense through its own separate counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be borne by the Indemnified Party unless: (i) otherwise specifically agreed by the Indemnifying Party; or (ii) counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party determines that because of a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party such counsel for the Indemnifying Party cannot adequately represent both Parties in conducting the defense of such action. In the event the Indemnified Party maintains separate counsel because counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party has determined that such counsel cannot adequately represent both Parties because of a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party, then the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to direct the defense of such Third-Party Claim on behalf of the Indemnified Party.

 

The failure of the Indemnifying Party to notify an Indemnified Party of its election to defend such Third-Party Claim within thirty days after notice thereof was given to the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed a waiver by the Indemnifying Party of its rights to defend such Third-Party Claim.

 

If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of a Third-Party Claim, the obligations of the Indemnifying Party shall include taking all steps necessary in the defense of such Third-Party Claim and holding the Indemnified Party harmless from and against any and all Damages caused or arising out of any settlement approved by the Indemnified Party or any judgment in connection with the claim or litigation.

 

If the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of such Third Party Claim in accordance with this Section 8.5, the Indemnified Party may defend against such claim or litigation in such manner as it deems appropriate; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party may not settle such Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party; provided further, that the Indemnifying Party may not withhold such consent unless it has provided security of a type and in an amount reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party for the payment of its indemnification obligations with respect to such Third Party Claim. The Indemnifying Party shall promptly reimburse the Indemnified Party for the amount of Damages caused or arising out of any judgment rendered with respect to such Third-Party Claim, and for all costs and expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party in the defense of such claim.

 

The Indemnifying Party may settle any Third-Party Claim in its sole discretion without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, provided that such settlement involves only the payment of cash by the Indemnifying Party to the claimant and does not impose any other obligation on the Indemnifying Party or any liability or obligation on the Indemnified Party.

 

 
31
 
 

 

Section 8.6 Notice and Procedural Requirements for Direct Claims.

 

Any claim for indemnification by an Indemnified Party on account of Damages which do not result from a Third Party Claim (a “Direct Claim”) shall be asserted by giving the Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt notice thereof in accordance with Section 9.7 of this Agreement; provided, however, that any failure to provide, or delay in providing, such notification shall not constitute a bar or defense to indemnification except to the extent the Indemnifying Party has been prejudiced thereby. After receiving notice of a Direct Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall have a period of thirty days within which to respond in writing to such Direct Claim. If the Indemnifying Party rejects such claim or does not respond within such thirty-day period (in which case the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have rejected such claim), the Indemnified Party shall be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to the Indemnified Party on the terms and subject to the provisions of this Article VIII.

 

Section 8.7 Limitations

 

(a) Timely Notice. No Party shall be liable for any Damages pursuant to this Article VIII with respect to a claim based on a breach by such Party for any representation and warranty given by such Party in this Agreement unless a claim for indemnification of such Damages is given by the Indemnified Party to the Indemnifying Party prior to the expiration of the Survival Period for the representation and warranty underlying such claim.

 

(b) Threshold. No Party shall be obligated to indemnify any Indemnified Party pursuant to this Article VIII until the aggregate Damages incurred by such Indemnified Party exceed $25,000, in which event the entire aggregate amount of such Damages shall be indemnifiable, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 8.7(c).

 

(c) Limitation of Damages. F Squared Hemp shall not be obligated to indemnify TSMI pursuant to Section 8.2 for Damages in excess of $50,000, TSMI shall not be obligated to indemnify F Squared Hemp pursuant to Section 8.3 for Damages in excess of $50,000.

 

(d) Exclusive Remedy. The Parties hereby acknowledge and agree that the indemnification provisions of this Article VIII shall be the sole and exclusive remedy available to each Indemnified Party in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.
