1.3.3 If Waivers or Consents Cannot Be Obtained. After the Closing and to the extent and for so long as all consents, approvals, and waivers required for the assignment of any Nonassignable Contracts have not been obtained by Seller and provided that the Transition Services Agreement is still in effect, Seller shall use reasonable commercial efforts to (1) provide to Purchaser the financial and business benefits of any such Nonassignable Contract and (2) enforce, at the request of Purchaser, and for the account of Purchaser, any rights of Seller arising from any such Nonassignable Contract (including the right to elect to terminate in accordance with the terms thereof upon the advice of Purchaser).

Without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee, the Indemnifying Party shall not enter into any settlement of any Third Party Claim that would lead to liability or create any financial or other obligation on the part of the Indemnitee for which the Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification hereunder.

10.4.3 A failure to give timely notice or to include any specified information in any notice as provided in Sections 10.4.1 or 10.4.2 will not affect the rights or obligations of any party hereunder except and only to the extent that, as a result of such failure, any party that was entitled to receive such notice was deprived of its right to recover any payment under its applicable insurance coverage or was otherwise damaged as a result of such failure.

10.4.4 Offset. Purchaser may offset the amount of any Indemnifiable Losses for which it is entitled to indemnification from any Indemnifying Party under this Article 10 against any amounts then owing by Purchaser to Seller.

In addition, in the event of Seller’s uncured breach, Purchaser may pursue those remedies available to it under the Indemnity Escrow Agreement.

10.6 NOTWITHSTANDING ANY PROVISION CONTAINED HEREIN TO THE CONTRARY, EXCEPT IN CONNECTION WITH THIRD PARTY CLAIMS, EACH PARTY’S LIABILITY FOR ANY LOSS OF OR DAMAGE TO REVENUES, PROFITS OR GOODWILL OR OTHER SPECIAL, INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY KIND (COLLECTIVELY, “CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES”), RESULTING FROM ITS PERFORMANCE OR FAILURE TO PERFORM PURSUANT TO THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE LIMITED AS FOLLOWS:

EXHIBIT A

INDEMNITY ESCROW AGREEMENT

This Indemnity Escrow Agreement (this “Escrow Agreement”) is dated November 3, 2011 and is between nuTravel Technology Solutions, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Purchaser”), TRX, Inc., a Georgia corporation (“Seller”), and Coleman Talley LLP, as escrow agent (“Escrow Agent”).

Purchaser and Seller have executed and delivered that certain Asset Purchase Agreement, dated November 3, 2011 (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”), which Asset Purchase Agreement provides for the transfer by Seller to Purchaser of certain of the assets, rights and properties used in connection with the operation of the Business and the assumption by Purchaser of certain obligations and liabilities relating to the Business, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Asset Purchase Agreement. The parties have agreed that Purchaser will deposit $200,000 of the Purchase Price into escrow (the “Escrow Deposit”) to be distributed as provided herein.

Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this Escrow Agreement have the respective meanings stated in the Asset Purchase Agreement.

Purchaser, Seller and Escrow Agent therefore agree as follows:

1. Escrow Deposit.

(a) On the date of this Agreement, Purchaser shall deliver the Escrow Deposit to the Escrow Agent in accordance with Section 3.1 of the Asset Purchase Agreement. Purchaser shall deliver the Escrow Deposit to the Escrow Agent by wire transfer of immediately available funds. In the case of a distribution to Purchaser or any Purchaser Indemnitee of any amounts distributed from the Escrow Deposit, Escrow Agent shall deliver such funds by wire transfer of immediately available funds.

(b) Escrow Agent shall hold the Escrow Deposit in a separate account (the “Escrow Account”) for the benefit of Purchaser and Seller as provided in this Escrow Agreement.

(c) Escrow Agent shall maintain a bookkeeping account (the “Account”) reflecting (i) the Escrow Deposit delivered under this Agreement plus (ii) all amounts earned on the Escrow Deposit, and less (iii) the portion of all amounts distributed in accordance with Sections 3(c) or 4.

2. Acceptance of Appointment as Escrow Agent. Escrow Agent hereby accepts the appointment as Escrow Agent. Escrow Agent shall hold and distribute the Escrow Deposit in accordance with the terms of this Escrow Agreement.

3. Distributions; Investments; Taxes.

(a) Pending disbursement of the Escrow Deposit, Escrow Agent shall invest in Permitted Investments the Escrow Deposit and any cash income earned or otherwise distributed on the Escrow Deposit. All cash dividends and other cash income earned or otherwise distributed on the Escrow Deposit will, until disbursed, also constitute a part of the Escrow Deposit and Escrow Agent shall, pending disbursement, invest in Permitted Investments such cash dividends other cash income.

 

- 31 -


(b) As and when any amount of the Permitted Investments is needed for a payment under this Escrow Agreement, Escrow Agent shall cause a sufficient amount of the Permitted Investments to be converted into cash, if and to the extent there are Permitted Investments. Purchaser and Seller shall jointly select in writing to Escrow Agent the investments or types of investments to be so converted. None of Seller, Escrow Agent or Purchaser is liable for any loss of principal or income due to the choice of Permitted Investments in which any of the Escrow Deposit or any income earned on the Escrow Deposit is invested or the Permitted Investments sold or converted in accordance with this Section 3(b).

(c) Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, Escrow Agent shall distribute to Seller, on a quarterly basis on or before the tenth day of January, April, July, and October, an amount equal to the product of the Effective Tax Rate (as reasonably computed and provided to Escrow Agent by the Purchaser and Seller jointly in writing) times the taxable cash interest, cash dividends and other cash income earned on the Escrow Deposit. For this purpose, the “Effective Tax Rate” means the actual effective combined federal, state and local income tax rate applicable to Seller.

(d) For tax purposes, the Escrow Deposit is property of Seller and all cash interest, cash dividends and other cash income earned on the Escrow Deposit will be income of Seller and all parties (other than Escrow Agent) shall file all Tax Returns consistent with such treatment. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, there is a determination by the Internal Revenue Service or any other tax authority that Purchaser has Tax liabilities as a result of the income generated on the Escrow Deposit, (i) Seller shall pay to Purchaser all amounts previously distributed to Seller under Section 3(c) with respect to such Taxes, plus interest at the rate specified by the Internal Revenue Code and corresponding provisions of applicable state and local laws, provided that Seller is not required to pay Purchaser any such amounts that were applied by Seller to pay Taxes on such funds for which Purchaser will receive a tax credit, and (ii) Seller shall thereafter no longer have any right to receive payments under Section 3(c). Upon receiving written notice of such determination, Escrow Agent shall thereafter make distributions under Section 3(c) to Purchaser.

4. Distribution of Escrow Deposit to the Purchaser Indemnitees. Escrow Agent shall disburse to the applicable Purchaser Indemnitee such portion of the Escrow Deposit as necessary to pay the Indemnifiable Losses for which such Purchaser Indemnitee is entitled to indemnity under Article 10 of the Asset Purchase Agreement. Escrow Agent shall make such payment not more than ten days after (i) the delivery to Escrow Agent of written instructions signed by Purchaser and Seller specifying an amount to be paid from the Escrow Deposit to a Purchaser Indemnitee or (ii) the delivery to Escrow Agent of a copy of a Final Determination establishing the Purchaser Indemnitee’s right to indemnity under the Asset Purchase Agreement with respect to such damages.

5. Segregation of the Escrow Deposit.

(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Escrow Agreement to the contrary, Escrow Agent shall restrict from release such portion of the Escrow Deposit (other than that portion of the Escrow Deposit that is at the time necessary to make a payment required under Section 4) as may be necessary to satisfy all Pending Claims, and shall hold such portion in accordance with this Section 5.

(b) Escrow Agent shall restrict any portion of the Escrow Deposit restricted under Section 5(a) until Escrow Agent is directed to release such Escrow Deposit by (i) written instruction signed by Purchaser and Seller instructing Escrow Agent how to pay all or any portion of such segregated

 

- 32 -


Escrow Deposit or (ii) the delivery to Escrow Agent of a copy of a Final Determination establishing or denying the Purchaser Indemnitee’s right to payment under Section 4. Escrow Agent shall distribute the released Escrow Deposit to the persons entitled thereto as specified in such joint written instruction or the Final Determination, as applicable.

6. Distribution of Escrow Deposit to Seller. Not later than the fifth business day after the Expiration Date, Escrow Agent shall distribute to Seller the remaining Escrow Deposit minus that portion of the Escrow Deposit that is then being restricted with respect to Pending Claims under Section 5, which Escrow Agent shall release and distribute in accordance with Section 5(b).

7. Rights and Responsibilities of Escrow Agent.

(a) The duties, responsibilities and obligations of Escrow Agent are limited to those expressly set forth herein and no duties, responsibilities or obligations are to be inferred or implied.

Escrow Agent is not required to, and will not, expend or risk any of its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder.

(b) If at any time Escrow Agent is served with any judicial or administrative order, judgment, decree, writ or other form of judicial or administrative process that in any way affects the Escrow Deposit (including but not limited to orders of attachment of garnishment or other forms of levies of injunctions or stays relating to the transfer of the Escrow Deposit), Escrow Agent is hereby authorized to comply therewith in any manner as it is or its legal counsel of its own choosing deems appropriate, and if Escrow Agent complies with any such judicial or administrative order, judgment, decree, writ or other form of judicial or administrative process, Escrow Agent will not be liable to Purchaser, Seller or the Purchaser Indemnitees even though such order, judgment, decree, writ of process is subsequently modified or vacated or otherwise determined to have been without legal force or effect.

(c) Escrow Agent is not liable for any action taken or omitted or for any loss or injury resulting from its actions or its performance or lack of performance of its duties hereunder in the absence of its gross negligence or willful misconduct. Escrow Agent will not be liable (1) for acting in accordance with or relying upon any instruction, notice, demand, certificate or document delivered in accordance with this Escrow Agreement by Seller and/or Purchaser, (2) for any consequential, punitive or special damages, (3) for the acts or omissions of its nominees, correspondents, designees, subagents or sub-custodians identified to, and approved by Seller and Purchaser in writing prior to appointment, or (4) for an amount in excess of the value of the Escrow Deposit, valued as of the applicable date of such act, omission, loss or injury.

(d) Escrow Agent may consult with legal counsel at the expense of Purchaser and Seller as to any matter relating to this Escrow Agreement, and Escrow Agent will not incur any liability for acting in good faith in accordance with any advice from such counsel.

(e) Escrow Agent will not incur any liability for not performing any act or fulfilling any duty, obligation or responsibility hereunder by reason of any occurrence beyond the reasonable

control of Escrow Agent (including but not limited to any act or provision of any present or future law or regulation of governmental authority, any act of God or war, or the unavailability of the Federal Reserve Bank wire or telex or other wire or communication facility).

(f) Unless otherwise specifically set forth herein, Escrow Agent shall proceed as soon as practicable to collect any checks or other collection items at any time deposited hereunder. Escrow Agent will not be required or have any duty, to notify anyone of any payment or maturity under the terms of an instrument deposited hereunder, nor to take any legal action to enforce payment of any check, note or security deposited hereunder or to exercise any right or privilege that may be afforded to the holder of any such security.

(g) Escrow Agent shall provide to Purchaser and Seller monthly statements identifying transactions, transfers or holdings of the Escrow Deposit and each such statement will be deemed to be correct and final upon receipt thereof by Purchaser and Seller unless Escrow Agent is notified in writing to the contrary within thirty (30) business days of the date of delivery of such statement.

(h) Escrow Agent will not be responsible in any respect for the form, execution, validity, value or genuineness of documents or securities deposited hereunder, or for any description therein, or for the identity, authority or rights of persons executing or delivering or purporting to execute or deliver any such document, security or endorsement.

(i) Escrow Agent is hereby authorized to comply with and rely upon any notices, instruction or other communications believed by it to have been sent or given by the Purchaser or Seller or by the person or persons authorized by Purchaser or Seller.

(j) Purchaser will be 50% liable and Seller will be 50% liable for and shall indemnify Escrow Agent against any and all claims, losses, liabilities, damages or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) (collectively, “Losses”) arising from or in connection with or related to this Escrow Agreement (including but not limited to Losses incurred by Escrow Agent in connection with its successful defense, in whole or in part, of any claim of gross negligence of willful misconduct on its part), except for Losses caused by Escrow Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(k) Purchaser and Seller may remove Escrow Agent at any time upon thirty (30) calendar days’ prior joint written notice to Escrow Agent. Escrow Agent may resign at any time by giving Purchaser and Seller fifteen (15) calendar days’ prior written notice thereof. If a successor Escrow Agent has not been appointed by mutual written agreement of Purchaser and Seller within ten (10) calendar days after giving the foregoing notice of removal to Escrow Agent or receiving the foregoing notice of resignation from Escrow Agent, Escrow Agent may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Escrow Agent or for other appropriate relief. The costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by Escrow Agent in connection with such proceeding shall be paid 50% by Purchaser and 50% by Seller. Upon receipt of the identity of the successor Escrow Agent, Escrow Agent shall either deliver the Escrow Deposit then held hereunder to the successor Escrow Agent, less Escrow Agent’s fees, costs and expenses or other obligations owed to Escrow Agent, or hold such Escrow Deposit (or any portion thereof), pending distribution, until all such fees, costs and expenses or other obligations are paid. Upon delivery of the Escrow Deposit to successor Escrow Agent, Escrow Agent will have no further duties, responsibilities or obligations hereunder.

 

- 34 -


(l) In the event of any ambiguity or uncertainty hereunder or in any notice, instruction or other communication received by Escrow Agent hereunder, Escrow Agent may refrain from taking any action other than retaining possession of the Escrow Deposit, unless Escrow Agent receives written instructions, signed by Purchaser and Seller, that eliminates such ambiguity or uncertainty. In the event of any dispute between or conflicting claims by Purchaser and Seller and/or any other person or entity with respect to any Escrow Deposit, Escrow Agent may refuse to comply with any claims, demands or instruction with respect to such Escrow Deposit so long as such dispute or conflict continues, and Escrow Agent will not be or become liable to Purchaser or Seller for failure or refusal to comply with such conflicting claims, demands or instructions. Escrow Agent may refuse to act until either (1) such conflicting or adverse claims or demands have been (A) determined by a final order, judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction, which order, judgment or decree is not subject to appeal or (B) settled by agreement between the conflicting parties as evidenced in a writing satisfactory to Escrow Agent or (2) Escrow Agent has received sufficient security or indemnity against any and all Losses that it may incur by reason of so acting. In addition, Escrow Agent may commence an interpleader action or seek other judicial relief or orders as it may deem, in its discretion, necessary.

(a) If the party seeking indemnity (the “Indemnitee”) receives notice of assertion or commencement of any third party claim against such Indemnitee with respect to which the other party is obligated to provide indemnification under this Agreement (the “Indemnifying Party”), the Indemnitee shall give the Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice thereof, but in any event not later than 20 calendar days after receipt of such notice of such claim. Such notice must describe the claim in reasonable detail, include copies of all material written evidence thereof and indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the loss that has been or might be sustained by the Indemnitee. The Indemnifying Party may participate in, or, by giving written notice to the Indemnitee, assume, the defense of any such claim at such Indemnifying Party’s own expense and by such Indemnifying Party’s own counsel (reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee), and the Indemnitee shall cooperate in good faith in such defense.

Without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee, the Indemnifying Party shall not enter into any settlement of any claim that would lead to liability or create any financial or other obligation on the part of the Indemnitee for which the Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification hereunder.
