6.4           Procedure.

(a)     Promptly upon receipt of information indicating that a right to indemnification may arise under this Agreement, whether the right to indemnification results from claims of a third-party, from Losses or otherwise (collectively, a “Claim”), an Indemnified Party will notify the Indemnifying Parties of the circumstances of the Claim and will keep the Indemnifying Parties apprised of any material changes in the circumstances of the Claim; provided, however, that no Indemnified Party will be obligated to notify the Indemnifying Parties of any Claim earlier than the ninety (90) day anniversary of the Closing Date. The delay or failure to give such notice will not relieve any Indemnifying Party of any Liability to the Indemnified Parties except to the extent that the failure to provide notice results in the failure of actual notice and such Indemnifying Party is materially damaged as a result of such failure.

(b)     The Indemnifying Parties will be entitled to participate in, and to assume fully, the defense of any third party Claim with counsel approved by the Indemnified Parties. The Indemnified Parties will give the Indemnifying Parties reasonable information and assistance, at the Indemnifying Parties’ expense, in connection with the defense of such Claim. If timely notice of an action is given to the Indemnifying Parties and the Indemnifying Parties do not give notice to the Indemnified Parties within fifteen (15) days of the Indemnifying Parties’ intent to assume the defense, the Indemnifying Parties will be bound by any determination made in such proceeding or any compromise or settlement thereof effected by the Indemnified Parties. If the Indemnifying Parties assume the defense, it will be conclusively established for purposes of this Agreement that the Claims made are the Indemnifying Parties’ indemnity obligations under this Agreement.

(c)     The Indemnified Parties will have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense of such Claim, but the fees and expenses of such counsel will be at the expense of the Indemnified Parties unless: (i) the employment of counsel by the Indemnified Parties has been authorized by the Indemnifying Parties; (ii) the Indemnified Parties have been advised by their counsel in writing that there is a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Parties and the Indemnified Parties in the conduct of the defense of the Claim (in which case the Indemnifying Parties will not have the right to direct the defense of the Claim on behalf of the Indemnified Parties); (iii) the Indemnifying Parties have not in fact employed counsel to assume the defense of the Claim within a reasonable time following receipt of the notice given pursuant to this Section 6.4; or (iv) the Indemnified Parties determine in good faith that there is a reasonable probability that the Claim may materially and adversely affect their or their Affiliates other than as a result of monetary damages; in each of which cases the fees and expenses of such counsel will be at the expense of the Indemnifying Parties.

(d)     Subject to the terms of Section 6.4(c), after notice to the Indemnified Parties of the assumption of defense by the Indemnifying Parties, the Indemnifying Parties will have no Liability to the Indemnified Parties for any fees or costs subsequently incurred by Indemnified Parties in such defense (except for fees and costs incurred in responding to requests for assistance from the Indemnifying Parties). No compromise or settlement of a claim binding on the Indemnified Parties will be effected by the Indemnifying Parties without the consent of the Indemnified Parties, which consent may be given or withheld in the Indemnified Parties’ sole discretion.

6.5          Limitations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, an Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for indemnification under this Agreement unless and until the aggregate amount of all such Losses exceeds $50,000, at which point the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for indemnification under this Agreement back to the first dollar. Each Indemnified Party waives, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, any right to multiply actual damages or recover consequential, indirect, special, punitive or exemplary damages (including, without limitation, damages for lost profits or loss of business opportunity) arising in connection with or with respect to the indemnification provisions hereof. Each Indemnified Party entitled to indemnification hereunder shall take reasonable steps to mitigate Losses after becoming aware of any event which could reasonably be expected to give rise to any Losses that are indemnifiable or recoverable hereunder. With the exception of Losses incurred by Buyer arising out of an Excluded Asset or an Excluded Liability, fraud, criminal activity, or willful misconduct, an Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for damages in excess of $500,000.

6.6     Exclusive Remedies. The parties acknowledge and agree that their sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all claims (other than claims arising from fraud on the part of a party hereto in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement, shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in Sections 6.1 to 6.5. Nothing in this Section 6.6 shall limit any Indemnified Party’s right to seek and obtain any equitable relief to which any Indemnified Party shall be entitled or to seek any remedy on account of any party's fraudulent, criminal or willful misconduct.

7.     Miscellaneous. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each Party shall be solely responsible for and shall pay all other costs and expenses (including attorney and accounting fees) incurred by it in connection with the negotiation, preparation and performance of and compliance with the terms of this Agreement. This Agreement and the exhibits, schedules, other agreements and addenda hereto embody the entire agreement and understanding of the Parties and supersede any and all prior agreements, arrangements and understandings relating to the matters provided for in this Agreement. This Agreement may not be amended or waived, and no consent required under this Agreement will be deemed to be given, except pursuant to a writing signed by the Party against whom enforcement of any amendment, waiver or consent is sought. No failure or delay on the part of Buyer or Company in exercising any right or power under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and assigns. Neither of Parent or Company may assign such Person’s rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of Buyer. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, this Agreement is not intended to, nor shall it, create any rights in any other Person, including any employee of Company. The construction and performance of this Agreement shall be governed by the Laws of the State of New York, without regard to any choice or conflicts of law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the Laws of any other jurisdiction. In the event that the Parties have a dispute, controversy or claim relating to this Agreement, any agreements or activities described in this Agreement (the “Dispute”), the Parties will first attempt in good faith to resolve the Dispute promptly by informed discussions. Any legal action brought under or in connection with the subject matter of this Agreement shall be brought only in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York or, if such court would not have jurisdiction over the matter, then only in a New York State court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, City of New York. Each of the Parties irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of these courts. Each of the Parties waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, the defenses of lack of personal jurisdiction, inconvenient forum, and improper venue to the maintenance of any such action or proceeding.  Any Party may make service on any other Party by sending or delivering a copy of the process to the Party to be serviced at the address and in the manner provided for in the giving of notices in Section 9. EACH PARTY WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL IN ANY LITIGATION RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES OR POST-EFFECTIVE COVENANTS RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original and all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by facsimile or in electronic (“pdf” or “tif”) format shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

8.     Notices. Any notices, demand or request required or permitted to be given under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be addressed to the following addresses or to such other address as any Party may request:

Any such notice, demand or request shall be deemed to have been duly delivered and received (a) on the date of personal delivery, (b) on the date of receipt if mailed by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid and return receipt requested, or (c) on the date of a signed receipt if sent by an overnight delivery service.

9.     Termination. This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing: (a) by mutual consent of Buyer and Company set forth in writing; (b) by Company by written notice to Buyer if Buyer has materially breached any representation, warranty, covenant, or agreement in this Agreement, and has not cured such breach within five (5) days after receipt of such notice or it is unable to be cured; (c) by Buyer by written notice to Company if Company or Parent has materially breached any representation, warranty, covenant, or agreement in this Agreement, and has not cured such breach within five (5) days after receipt of such notice or it is unable to be cured; or (d) by either Buyer or Company by written notice to the other Parties if, for any reason, the Closing shall not have occurred by the Outside Date, unless the failure of the Closing to occur by the Outside Date shall be due to the failure of the Party seeking to terminate this Agreement. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to this Section 10, all further obligations of the Parties under this Agreement shall terminate; provided that the obligations of the Parties in Section 4.3, Section 8 and this Section 10 shall survive any such termination. Without limiting the rights and remedies of any Party with respect to a breach of any other Party’s representations, warranties or covenants under this Agreement or any other document delivered in connection herewith, in the event the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall not be consummated as a result thereof, the Parties shall, bear their own respective cost and expenses.
