LCLX and LC Merger Sub are not “investment companies” as defined in Section 368(a)(2)(F)(iii) and (iv) of the Code.  LCLX does not own, nor has it owned during the past five years, any membership interests of Weedmaps.

ARTICLE 6

COVENANTS, INDEMNIFICATION

6.1          To induce LCLL to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, and without limiting any covenant, agreement, representation or warranty made, Weedmaps and the Members covenant and agree as follows:

6.1.1           Notices and Approvals.  Weedmaps and the Members agree: (a) to give all notices to third parties which may be necessary or reasonably deemed desirable by LCLL in connection with this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby; (b) to use their best efforts to obtain all federal and state governmental regulatory agency approvals, consents, permit, authorizations, and orders necessary or reasonably deemed desirable by LCLL in connection with this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby; and (c) to use their best efforts to obtain all consents and authorizations of any other third parties necessary or reasonably deemed desirable by LCLL in connection with this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

6.1.2           Information for LCLL’s Statements and Applications.  At no cost to Weedmaps or the Members, Weedmaps and the Members and their employees, accountants and attorneys shall cooperate fully with LCLL in the preparation of any statements or applications made by LCLL to any federal or state governmental regulatory agency in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and to furnish LCLL with all information concerning Weedmaps and the Members necessary or reasonably deemed desirable by LCLL for inclusion in such statements and applications, including, without limitation, all requisite financial statements and schedules.

6.1.3           Access to Information.  LCLL, together with its appropriate attorneys, agents and representatives, shall be permitted to make the full and complete investigation of Weedmaps and the Members and have full access to all of the books and records of Weedmaps during reasonable business hours.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, such parties shall treat all such information as confidential and shall not disclose such information without the prior consent of the other.

 

6.2          Indemnification.

6.2.1           Indemnity of Weedmaps and the Members.  LCLX and LC Merger Sub each agree to indemnify, defend and hold Weedmaps and the Members harmless from and against any and all Losses (as hereinafter defined) arising out of or resulting from the breach by LCLX or LC Merger Sub of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement or the schedules and exhibits hereto.  For purposes of Section 6.2, the term “Losses” shall mean all damages, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) of every kind, nature or description, it being the intent of the Parties that the amount of any such Loss shall be the amount necessary to restore the indemnified party to the position it would have been in (economically or otherwise), including any costs or expenses incident to such restoration, had the breach, event, occurrence or condition occasioning such Loss never occurred.  In addition, LCLX and LC Merger Sub each hereby agree to indemnify Weedmaps and the Members for up to fifty percent (50%) of any Losses (including taxes, penalties and interest) paid by such Members (i) arising out of the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) re-characterization of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement so that the issuance of the LCLX Shares to the Members is not a tax free reorganization; (ii) for payroll, employees’ income withholding, social security, and unemployment tax liabilities, incurred in any tax period beginning prior to the Closing, in excess of such liabilities as anticipated by the tax return filed by or on behalf of Weedmaps or such Member, as appropriate, for such period; (iii) arising out of IRS challenge of the treatment of the Purchase Price by any of the Members as capital gain; and (iv) for any taxes incurred by Weedmaps or the Members as a result of the receipt of indemnification payments under this Agreement (collectively, the “Tax Indemnity”).  Amounts payable by LCLX and LC Merger Sub under this Section shall be paid to Weedmaps or the Members, as appropriate, within ninety (90) days following request therefor from Weedmaps or the Members, provided that amounts payable by LCLX and LC Merger Sub in connection with the Tax Indemnity shall be paid to Weedmaps or the Members, as appropriate, no later than six (6) months following request therefor from Weedmaps or the Members.  Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this section, no claim for indemnification shall be made by Weedmaps or the Members under this section unless and until the aggregate amount of all Losses of Weedmaps and the Members in respect thereof shall exceed $15,000, but then such indemnified parties shall be entitled to all indemnifiable Losses above and below such threshold.

6.2.2           Indemnity of LCLL.  Weedmaps and the Members, and each of them, hereby agree to indemnify, defend and hold LCLL harmless from and against any and all Losses arising out of or resulting from the breach by Weedmaps or the Members of any representation, warranty, agreement or covenant contained in this Agreement or the exhibits and schedules hereto, including, without limitation, the failure to disclose any material contracts or agreements pursuant to Section 2.1.11.  Amounts payable by Weedmaps and the Members, as appropriate, under this Section shall be paid to LCLL, within ninety (90) days following request therefor from LCLL.  Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this section, no claim for indemnification shall be made by LCLL under this Section unless and until the aggregate amount of all Losses of LCLL in respect thereof shall exceed $15,000, but then such indemnified parties shall be entitled to all indemnifiable Losses above and below such threshold.

 

 

6.2.3       Indemnification Procedure.

(a)           An indemnified party shall notify the indemnifying party of any claim of such indemnified party for indemnification under this Agreement within thirty days of the date on which such indemnified party or an executive officer or representative of such indemnified party first becomes aware of the existence of such claim.  Such notice shall specify the nature of such claim in reasonable detail and the indemnifying party shall be given reasonable access to any documents or properties within the control of the indemnified party as may be useful in the investigation of the basis for such claim.  The failure to so notify the indemnifying party within such thirty-day period shall not constitute a waiver of such claim but an indemnified party shall not be entitled to receive any indemnification with respect to any additional loss that occurred as a result of the failure of such person to give such notice.

In the event any indemnified party is entitled to indemnification hereunder based upon a claim asserted by a third party (including a claim arising from an assertion or potential assertion of a claim for Taxes), the indemnifying party shall be given prompt notice thereof, in reasonable detail.  The failure to so notify the indemnifying party shall not constitute a waiver of such claim but an indemnified party shall not be entitled to receive any indemnification with respect to any Loss that occurred as a result of the failure of such person to give such notice.  The indemnifying party shall have the right (without prejudice to the right of any indemnified party to participate at its expense through counsel of its own choosing) to defend or prosecute such claim at its expense and through counsel of its own choosing if it gives written notice to the indemnified party of its intention to do so not later than twenty days following notice of the claim to the indemnifying party or such shorter time period as required so that the interests of the indemnified party would not be materially prejudiced as a result of its failure to have received such notice from the indemnifying party; provided, however, that if the defendants in any action shall include both an indemnifying party and an indemnified party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that counsel selected by the indemnifying party has a conflict of interest because of the availability of different or additional defenses to the indemnified party, the indemnified party shall have the right to select separate counsel to participate in the defense of such action on its behalf, at the expense of the indemnifying party.  If the indemnifying party does not so choose to defend or prosecute any such claim asserted by a third party for which any indemnified party would be entitled to indemnification hereunder, then the indemnified party shall be entitled to recover from the indemnifying party, on a monthly basis, all of its attorneys’ reasonable fees and other costs and expenses of litigation of any nature whatsoever incurred in the defense of such claim.  Notwithstanding the assumption of the defense of any claim by an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph, the indemnified party shall have the right to approve the terms of any settlement of a claim (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld).

(b)           The indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall cooperate in furnishing evidence and testimony and in any other manner which the other may reasonably request, and shall in all other respects have an obligation of good faith dealing, one to the other, so as not to unreasonably expose the other to an undue risk of loss.  The indemnified party shall be entitled to reimbursement for out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred by it in connection with such cooperation.  Except for fees and expenses for which indemnification is provided pursuant to Section 6.2, and as provided in the preceding sentence, each party shall bear its own fees and expenses incurred pursuant to this paragraph (b).

6.3

Taxes.

6.3.1           For tax purposes, the Merger is intended to be treated as a tax-free reorganization under Section 368(a)(1)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the Parties agree to make all tax filings consistent with that intention.

6.3.2           In the case of any taxable period that includes (but does not end on) the Closing Date (a “Straddle Period”), the amount of any taxes based on or measured by income or receipts of Weedmaps to which a Straddle Period applies for a pre-Closing tax period shall be determined based on an interim closing of the books as of the close of business on the Closing Date and the amount of other taxes of Weedmaps for a Straddle Period that relates to a pre-Closing tax period shall be deemed to be (x) the amount of such tax for the entire taxable period, multiplied by (y) a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the taxable period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in such Straddle Period.

6.3.3           LCLL shall prepare or cause to be prepared and file or cause to be filed all tax returns for Weedmaps that are filed after the Closing Date.  No Party may amend a tax return filed in accordance with this Agreement by any Party with respect to Weedmaps for a taxable period beginning prior to the Closing Date without the consent of the other Party, not to be unreasonably withheld.  Further, without the consent of the Members, LCLL shall not amend any tax return filed prior to the Closing Date if such amendment is reasonably expected to either (i) give rise to a breach of Section 2.1.7 or (ii) give rise to a claim for indemnification under Section 6.2.2.  LCLL shall permit the Members to review and comment on each tax return relating to a pre-Closing tax period or Straddle Period prior to filing and shall not file any such tax return prior to the expiration of the twenty (20) business day period described in the following sentence.  If within twenty (20) business days of their receipt of any tax return relating to a pre-Closing tax period or Straddle Period, the Members notify LCLL in writing of any objection regarding such tax return, LCLL and the Members shall cooperate in good faith to resolve such dispute as promptly as possible.  If LCLL and the Members are unable to resolve the dispute within twenty (20) business days after receipt of such objection, LCLL and the Members shall submit for resolution such disputed items to Peter DeGregori, Vertical Advisors, LLP (the “Determining CPA”).  The Determining CPA shall within thirty (30) business days following its receipt of the disputed items deliver to LCLL and the Members a written report setting forth its determination as to such disputed items (and only such disputed items).  The Determining CPA’s determinations shall be conclusive and binding upon the parties thereto for the purposes hereof.  The fees and disbursements of the Determining CPA attributable to matters resolved by the Determining CPA pursuant to this Section 6.3.3 shall be apportioned equally (50/50) between the Members, on the one hand, and LCLL, on the other hand.  The filing Party under this section shall control any audits, disputes, administrative, judicial or other proceedings related to taxes with respect to which either Party may incur liability hereunder; provided, however that in the event an adverse determination may result in Weedmaps or the Members having responsibility to a taxing authority for taxes, each Party shall be entitled to fully participate in that portion of the proceedings relating to the taxes with respect to which it may incur liability hereunder.  For purposes of this section, the term “participation” shall include (i) participation in conferences, meetings or proceedings with any tax authority, the subject matter of which includes an item for which such Party may have liability hereunder, (ii) participation in appearances before any court or tribunal, the subject matter of which includes an item for which a Party may have liability hereunder, and (iii) with respect to the matters described in the preceding clauses (i) and (ii), participation in the submission and determination of the content of the documentation, protests, memorandum of fact and law, briefs, and the conduct of oral arguments and presentations.

6.4          Filing of S-1 by LCLX.  LCLX shall use its best efforts to file a registration statement on Form S-1 (the “S-1”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and obtain effectiveness thereof as soon as possible following the Closing.  As may be requested in writing by the Members, LCLX shall include as part of the shares to be registered pursuant to the S-1 such number of shares of the Stock Consideration as shall be indicated in writing by the Members.  To the best knowledge LCLX, the S-1 shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statement made therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading.
