9.    INDEMNIFICATION
9.1
Purchaser Indemnification
(a)
Subject to the other terms and conditions of this clause 9, Sellers shall jointly and severally indemnify each of Purchaser, Parent and their Affiliates (including the Company) and their respective representatives (collectively, the “Purchaser Indemnitees”) against, and shall hold each of them harmless from and against, and shall pay and reimburse each of them for, any and all Losses incurred or sustained by, or imposed upon, the Purchaser Indemnitees based upon, arising out of, with respect to or by reason of:
(i)
any inaccuracy in or breach of any of the warranties contained in this Agreement or in any certificate or instrument delivered by or on behalf of Sellers pursuant to this Agreement, as of the date such representation or warranty was made or as if such representation or warranty was made on and as of the Completion Date (except for representations and warranties that expressly relate to a specified date, the inaccuracy in or breach of which will be determined with reference to such specified date);
(ii)
any breach or non-fulfilment of any Covenant, agreement or obligation to be performed by Sellers pursuant to this Agreement;
(iii)
any Transaction Expenses outstanding as of Completion to the extent not deducted from the Consideration in accordance with clause 3.3(b); or
Notwithstanding the foregoing, where indemnification cannot be satisfied pursuant to clauses 9.3(f)(i) or 9.3(f)(ii), Sellers shall indemnify the Purchaser Indemnitees severally and not jointly, except in the case of a breach of the warranties contained in clauses 6.3 and 6.6, in which case Sellers shall jointly and severally indemnify the Purchaser Indemnitees regardless of whether a claim can be satisfied pursuant to clauses 9.3(f)(i) or 9.3(f)(ii).
(b)
It is specifically agreed that the Sellers’ liability in relation to the Purchaser is exclusively governed by this Agreement and thus no remedy whatsoever under the Sale of Goods Act (Sw. Köplagen (1990:931)) or under any other statute, law or legal principle, including (but not limited to) the right to rescind this Agreement, shall be available to the Purchaser.
(c)
It is also specifically agreed that the Sellers shall not be liable for any Claim relating to write-down of the book value resulting from the sale of the Visuray Shares.
9.2

(a)
Subject to the other terms and conditions of this clause 9, Purchaser shall indemnify and defend each Seller and their Affiliates and their respective representatives (collectively, the “Seller Indemnitees”) against, and shall hold each of them harmless from and against, and shall pay and reimburse each of them for, any and all Losses incurred or sustained by, or imposed upon, the Seller Indemnitees based upon, arising out of, with respect to or by reason of:





(i)
any inaccuracy in or breach of any of the warranties of Purchaser contained in this Agreement or in any certificate or instrument delivered by or on behalf of Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement, as of the date such representation or warranty was made or as if such representation or warranty was made on and as of the Completion Date (except for representations and warranties that expressly relate to a specified date, the inaccuracy in or breach of which will be determined with reference to such specified date); or
(ii)
any breach or non-fulfilment of any covenant, agreement or obligation to be performed by Purchaser or Parent pursuant to this Agreement.
9.3
Limitations of Indemnification
Sellers’ liability to indemnify the Purchaser Indemnities and Purchaser’s liability to indemnify the Seller Indemnitees are subject to the following limitations:
(a)
If the Purchaser or, following Completion, any Group Company becomes aware of any matter or circumstance which give rise to a Claim against the Sellers under this Agreement, the Purchaser shall within 40 Business Days from the date when the Purchaser or the relevant Group Company became aware, or reasonably should have become aware of the circumstances giving rise to the Claim give notice in writing to the Sellers. The written notice shall specify the legal and factual basis of the Claim and the evidence on which the Purchaser relies and, if practicable, an estimate of the amount of losses which are, or are to be, subject of the Claim (including any losses which are contingent on the occurrence of any future event). Should Purchaser notify later than as required by this clause 9.3(a), this shall not operate to restrict Purchaser from presenting a Claim, but Sellers shall not be liable for any additional Loss attributable to the fact that the notice was sent out later than as stipulated in this clause 9.3(a).
(b)
No Claim for a breach of representations and warranties shall entitle an Indemnified Party to indemnification unless notice in writing of any such Claim, accompanied by reasonable particulars of the Claim specifying the nature of the Claim and, as far as reasonably practicable, an estimation of the amount of the Claim, has been given to Indemnifying Party:
(i)
in relation to Warranties relating to Taxes, within three (3) months from the date when the Taxes in question have been subject to a final and non-appealable decision by the relevant tax authority/court; or
(ii)
in relation to Fundamental Warranties no later than on the tenth anniversary of the Completion Date; and
(iii)
in relation to any other warranties, within twenty-four (24) months after the Completion Date.
(c)
Liability in respect of a Loss shall survive the time at which liability would otherwise terminate pursuant to clause 9.3(a) if notice of the Claim was delivered prior to such time.
(d)
if the Indemnified Party has notified the Indemnifying Party of a Claim pursuant to clause 9.3(a), and the Indemnifying Party does not dispute such Claim (or does not reserve the right to dispute the Claim if and when it receives further details on the Claim) by delivering a written notice to the Indemnified Party, accompanied by reasonable particulars of the Claim specifying the Indemnified Party’s rationale for disputing the Claim, within 60 days following receipt by the Indemnifying Party of such notice in accordance with this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have finally and irrevocably accepted the Claim as well as the Indemnified Party’s calculation of the amount of the Claim.
(e)
The Indemnified Party shall be entitled to indemnification in relation to a Claim for breach of any of the Business Warranties once such Claim meets the following requirements:
(i)
in respect of individual Claims (or series of Claims arising from substantially identical facts and circumstances) for Loss that is equal to or exceeds an amount in EUR corresponding to 50,000; and





(ii)
only the aggregate amount of the Loss recoverable under such Claims is equal to or exceeds an amount in EUR corresponding to 400,000, but if such Losses exceed the said amount the Indemnified Party shall be compensated for the full amount of the Claim.
(f)
Sellers’ total liability to the Purchaser Indemnitees for a Loss under this Agreement, other than a Loss due to a breach of the Fundamental Warranties (which shall not exceed the total Consideration received by the Sellers), fraud or wilful misconduct, shall not exceed EUR 16,000,000. Claims for indemnification will be satisfied as follows:
(i)
From the Completion Date up until the first anniversary of the Completion Date, Purchaser is entitled to make a pro rata reduction (in relation to each Sellers’ share of the total Stock Based Consideration) of each Sellers’ share of the Stock Based Consideration with an amount corresponding to the Loss suffered by the Purchaser Indemnitees; and
(ii)
From the Completion Date up until the second anniversary of the Completion Date, Purchaser is entitled to coverage from the Insurer under the R&W Policy for any Loss. The premium for the R&W Policy shall be paid by Sellers at Completion and the R&W Policy shall not exceed EUR 8,000,000.
Purchaser shall first seek compensation in the reduction of the Stock Based Compensation in accordance with clause 9.3(f)(i) above, and secondly seek compensation from the Insurer under the R&W Insurance in accordance with clause 9.3(f)(ii) above. For the avoidance of doubt, the above limitation on liability shall not apply with respect to any breach of the Fundamental Warranties (which shall not exceed the total Consideration received by the Sellers) or in the case of fraud or wilful misconduct by Sellers.
(g)
Purchaser’s total liability to the Seller Indemnitees for a Loss under this Agreement, other than a Loss due to a breach of the Fundamental Warranties (which shall not exceed the total Consideration received by the Sellers), fraud or wilful misconduct, shall not exceed EUR 10,000,000.
(h)
For purposes of this clause 9, any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty shall be determined without regard to any materiality, Material Adverse Effect or similar qualification contained in or otherwise applicable to such representation or warranty.
(i)
Purchaser shall not be entitled to make a Claim for breach of the Business Warranties to the extent:`
(i)
such Claim is based on facts or circumstances which have been fairly and specifically disclosed in the Data Room Documents in an orderly and discernible manner so that a prudent purchaser could:
(A)
understand the content and impact of such disclosure; and
(B)
to identify the facts or circumstances causing the Loss and to evaluate the extent of the Loss;
(ii)
a full specific provision or allowance for the matter of the Loss, has been made for such matter in the Accounts or the Completion Statements; or
(iii)
such Claim occurs as a result of the passing of any legislation not in force at the Completion Date, or which takes effect retroactively, or occurs as a result of any increase in the tax rate in force on the Completion.
9.4
Other limitations of indemnification
(a)
If any Loss is a tax deductible item, or relates to an untaxed reserve, Sellers’ indemnification for such Loss shall be reduced by the actual tax savings actually made by that Group Company.
(b)
Purchaser shall take reasonable actions to mitigate any indemnifiable Loss in respect of which a Claim for breach of the Warranties could be made under this Agreement.





10.    SPECIFIC INDEMNITY BY THE SELLERS
10.1
The Sellers shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Purchaser from and against any Loss as a result of
(a)
Spencer Gunn’s and Innovative Pivotal Application Ltd's relationship with any of the Group Companies prior to the Closing Date, and
(b)
the dispute involving Madame Bouquet, Space Dental, and Oy Ajat Ltd. related to an Oy Ajat Ltd. product sold by Space Dental in France to the extent not already included in Debt.
10.2
Except for the limitations set forth in clause 9.3(f) the limitations set forth in clause 9.3 shall not apply to indemnifications under this clause 10.
11.    Third Party Claims and Recovery
11.1
In case Purchaser after the Completion Date becomes aware of any Third Party Claim for which Sellers may be liable, Purchaser shall, in order to preserve its right to bring a Claim against Sellers, either itself, or shall procure that the relevant Group Company shall:
(a)
as soon as reasonably practicable, but in no event later than 40 Business Days after Purchaser became aware of the Third Party Claim, give notice of it in writing to Sellers; and
(b)
not make any admission of liability and not agree to settle or compromise with any person, body or authority in relation to it, without obtaining the prior written consent of Sellers.
11.2
Should Purchaser notify later than as required by clause 11.1, this shall not operate to restrict Purchaser from presenting a Claim, but Sellers shall not be liable for any additional Loss attributable to the fact that the notice was sent out later than as stipulated in clause 11.1.
11.3
Provided that Sellers has confirmed to Purchaser, in writing within 10 Business Days after Purchaser gave notice of the Third Party Claim pursuant to clause 11.1, that the Third Party Claim constitutes a breach of this Agreement for which Sellers is liable to indemnify Purchaser in full, Sellers shall be entitled, at its own cost and expense, and after proper notification to Purchaser to assume the defence of any Third Party Claim and take such actions as it deems necessary in the name of any Group Company. Sellers shall diligently conduct the defence of the Third Party Claim and when defending a claim Sellers shall take due consideration to the relevant Group Company's commercial interest in particular if the third party is a customer of or supplier to a Group Company. In such event, Purchaser shall give, and/or ensure that the relevant Group Company will give, to Sellers all authorisations and all assistance necessary to enable Sellers to dispute and defend any such claim.
11.4
If Purchaser has been indemnified in full by Sellers as a complete settlement of a Claim, and Purchaser or a Group Company subsequently has the right to recover any amount in respect of the claim from any third party, then such right shall, on request by Sellers and to the extent permissible under applicable laws and always subject to the commercial interests of Purchaser and the Group Companies as deemed by Purchaser, be assigned to Sellers, or as applicable, any amount received from such third party shall be paid to Sellers (less any reasonable cost incurred in such recovery).
11.5
This clause 11 shall in no way restrict Purchaser when seeking to fulfil its obligations pursuant to clause 9.4(b).
12.    SETTLEMENT OF CLAIMS
12.1
Payment
(a)
If Purchaser has asserted a Claim pursuant to clause 9 by delivering a written notice to Sellers, and Sellers have not disputed the Claim in accordance with clause 9.3(d), Purchaser shall make a pro rata reduction (in relation to each Sellers’ share of the total Stock Based Consideration) of each Sellers’ share of the Stock Based Consideration, in an amount corresponding to the amount of such Claim and shall provide Sellers’ Representative with notice of such reduction.





(b)
If Seller has asserted a Claim pursuant to clause 10 by delivering a written notice to Purchaser and Purchaser has not disputed the Claim in accordance with clause 10.3(c), Purchaser shall deposit the amount of such Claim into the Transaction Account and instruct the Bank to distribute the amount of such Claim to Sellers within seven Business Days.

13.2
If this Agreement is terminated, irrespective of the cause of such termination, Purchaser shall, and shall procure that its advisors shall, upon a request in writing from Sellers, return or destroy any document containing Confidential Information, and any copy of it.
