| (a) | Third-Party Claims. If any Indemnified Party, as defined herein, receives notice of the assertion or commencement of any Action made or brought by any Person who is not a party to this Agreement, an Affiliate of a party to this Agreement, or a Representative of the foregoing (a “Third-Party Claim”) against the Indemnified Party with respect to which the other Party is obligated to provide indemnification under this Agreement (the “Indemnifying Party”), the Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party written notice thereof, not later than twenty (20) calendar days after receipt of such notice of such Third-Party Claim. A Party seeking indemnification pursuant to this Article 8 is referred to herein as an “Indemnified Party”. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party forfeits rights or defenses by reason of such failure. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe in reasonable detail the Third-Party Claim, shall include copies of the Third-Party Claim and all material written evidence thereof, and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably able to calculate, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to participate in, or by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party, to assume the defense of any Third-Party Claim at the Indemnifying Party’s expense and by the Indemnifying Party’s own counsel (which such counsel must be approved by the Indemnified Party), and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate in good faith in such defense; provided, that the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to defend or direct the defense of any Third-Party Claim that seeks injunctive or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party. In the event that the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third-Party Claim, they shall have the right to take such action as they deem necessary to avoid, dispute, defend, appeal, or make counterclaims pertaining to any Third-Party Claim in the name of and on behalf of the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in the defense of any Third-Party Claim with counsel selected by it subject to the Indemnifying Party’s right to control the defense thereof. The fees and disbursements of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party; provided, that if in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the Indemnified Party, (i) there are legal defenses available to an Indemnified Party, (ii) there exists a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party that cannot be waived, the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Indemnified Party in each jurisdiction that is required. If the Indemnifying Party elects not to compromise or defend such Third-Party Claim, fails to promptly notify the Indemnified Party in writing of its election to defend as provided herein, or fails to diligently prosecute the defense of such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnified Party may, subject to this Section, pay, compromise, and/or defend such Third-Party Claim and seek indemnification for any and all Losses based upon, arising from or relating to such Third-Party Claim. The Indemnified Party and Indemnifying Party shall cooperate with each other in all respects in connection with the defense of any Third-Party Claim, including making available records relating to such Third-Party Claim and furnishing, without expense (other than reimbursement of actual out-of-pocket expenses) to the defending party, and management employees of the non-defending party as may be reasonably necessary for the preparation of the defense of such Third-Party Claim. |
28
| (i) | Settlement of Third-Party Claims. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall not enter into settlement of any Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, except as provided herein. If a firm offer is made to settle a Third-Party Claim without leading to liability or the creation of a financial or other obligation on the part of the Indemnified Party and provides, in customary form, for the unconditional release of each Indemnified Party from all liabilities and obligations in connection with such Third-Party Claim and the Indemnifying Party desires to accept and agree to such offer, the Indemnifying Party shall give written notice to that effect to the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnified Party fails to consent to such firm offer within ten (10) days after its receipt of such notice, the Indemnified Party may continue to contest or defend such Third-Party Claim and, in such event, the maximum liability of the Indemnifying Party as to such Third-Party Claim shall not exceed the amount of such settlement offer. If the Indemnified Party fails to consent to such firm offer and also fails to assume defense of such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party may settle the Third-Party Claim upon the terms set forth in such firm offer to settle the Third-Party Claim. If the Indemnified Party has assumed the defense pursuant to Section 8.5(a), it shall not agree to any settlement without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. |
| (b) | Direct Claims. Any Action by an Indemnified Party on account of a Loss which does not result from a Third-Party Claim (a “Direct Claim”) shall be asserted by the giving the Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice thereof, but in any event not later than twenty (20) days after the Indemnified Party becomes aware of such Direct Claim. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party forfeits rights or defenses by reason of such failure. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the provide a copy of the Direct Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) days after its receipt of such notice to respond in writing to such Direct Claim. The Indemnified Party shall allow the Indemnifying Party and its professional advisors to investigate the matter or circumstance alleged to give rise to the Direct Claim, and whether and to what extent any amount is payable in respect of the Direct Claim and the Indemnified Party shall assist the Indemnifying Party’s investigation by giving such information and assistance (including access to the Company’s premises and personnel and the right to examine and copy any accounts, documents or records) as the Indemnifying Party or any of its professional advisors may reasonably request. If the Indemnifying Party does not so respond within such thirty (30) day period, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have rejected such claim, in which case 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 Agreement. |
| 8.6 | Certain Limitations |
| (a) | The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party for indemnification under Section 8.2 or Section 8.3, as the case may be, until the aggregate amount of all Losses in respect of indemnification under Section 8.2 or Section 8.3 exceeds $50,000 (the “Deductible”), in which event the Indemnifying Party shall only be required to pay or be liable for losses in excess of the Deductible. |
| (b) | The aggregate amount of all Losses for which the Sellers shall be liable pursuant to Section 8.2, arising out of or resulting from any breach of or inaccuracy in any representation or warranty set forth in this Agreement shall not exceed fifty percent (50%) of the dollar amount of the Purchase Price. |
29
| 8.7 | Payments; Indemnification |
Once a Loss is agreed to by the Parties or finally adjudicated to be payable pursuant to this Article 8, such amounts shall be satisfied by the Indemnifying Party. Any such obligations unpaid within sixty (60) days of the date that the Loss was agreed-upon or finally adjudicated shall accrue interest from the date of agreement or adjudication at twelve percent (12%) per annum.
| 8.8 | Tax Treatment of Indemnification Payments |
All indemnification payments made under this Agreement shall be treated by the Parties as an adjustment to the total Purchase Price for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Law.
| 8.9 | Exclusive Remedies |
Except for as provided below in Section 8.10, the Parties acknowledge and agree that from and after the Closing their sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all claims 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 this Article 8. In furtherance of the foregoing, each Party hereby waives, from and after the Closing, to the fullest extent permitted under Law, any and all rights, claims and causes of action for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement it may have against the other parties hereto and their Affiliates arising under or based upon any Law, except pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article 8. Nothing in this Section 8.9 shall limit any Person’s right to seek and obtain any equitable relief to which such Person shall be entitled.
