Following the Closing, Seller, the Equity Owner and Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts, and shall cooperate with each other, to obtain any such required consent, authorization, approval or waiver, or any release, substitution or amendment required to transfer the Purchased Asset to Purchaser.

(a) Subject to the other terms and conditions of this Section 7.02, Seller and the Equity Owner shall jointly and severally indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser Indemnitees against any and all Losses incurred by Purchaser Indemnitees based upon, arising out of, relating to, with respect to or by reason of: (i) any inaccuracy in or breach of or non-fulfillment of any of the representations and warranties given by Seller or the Equity Owner in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, (ii) any breach of or non-fulfillment of any covenants, agreements or obligations of Seller or the Equity Owner contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document and any Actions incidental thereto or that allege any of the foregoing; (iii) any Liability relating to Seller’s ownership of the Purchased Assets or its operation of the Business prior to the Reference Time, or otherwise incurred or arising prior to the Reference Time; (iv) any Liability of or relating to any of the following: Seller or the Equity Owner (including any Closing Date Liability), Seller’s ownership or use of any Purchased Assets before Closing, any equity or debt holder of Seller (including any Person asserting any equity or debt interest in Seller), or (v) any Fraud by an Equity Owner or Seller.

In addition, all representations, warranties and covenants and requirements to provide indemnification hereunder or under any Transaction Document shall be given independent effect so that if a particular representation or warranty proves to be incorrect or is breached or if a covenant is breached or indemnification is required, the fact that another representation or warranty concerning the same or similar subject matter is duplicative or not duplicative, is correct or incorrect or is or is not breached or another covenant is or is not breached or another requirement for indemnification does nor does not apply will not affect the incorrectness of or a breach of a representation and warranty or a breach of a covenant or requirement for indemnification hereunder. No Party shall be entitled to recover more than once in duplicate for the same Loss, regardless of whether such Loss arises under multiple representations, warranties, or covenants, with the intent of this sentence being to prevent duplicative recoveries. With respect to this Section 7.02, for purposes of determining whether any breach or inaccuracy has occurred and/or the amount of Losses resulting from a breach, all representations and warranties in this Agreement (or in any Transaction Document) shall be deemed to be made and given without regard to any qualification as to “materiality” or “Material Adverse Effect” or words of similar import contained therein.

 

(c) Any Losses for which Purchaser Indemnitees are entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Section 7.02 shall be paid first by Purchaser’s offset against any portion of the Indemnification Holdback Amount not previously applied to such Losses hereunder. To the extent the entire Indemnification Holdback Amount shall have already been offset against Losses hereunder, any such Losses shall be satisfied by Seller and the Equity Owner, jointly and severally, by wire transfer of immediately available cash funds to the Purchaser within fifteen days after written demand therefore. In addition, in Purchaser’s sole discretion, at any time or from time to time, all or any portion of any indemnification obligations of Seller and the Equity Owner for Losses under Section 7.02 may be offset by Purchaser against any other amount payable by Purchaser to Seller or the Equity Owner. Purchaser shall provide Seller with at least ten business days written notice before any such offset (or, if less, the number of days remaining from the date of such offset until the next such amount is payable to Seller or the Equity Owner). Upon Purchaser delivering a claim notice for indemnification to Seller, then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Purchaser shall be entitled to holdback any payment otherwise payable to Seller or an Equity Owner for the amount of potential Losses in respect of such claim notice (the “Claimed Losses”), until the claims referenced in the claim notice are finally resolved.

Within five Business Days after any claims in such claim notices have been resolved after the Release Date, Purchaser shall pay, or cause to be paid, to Seller, by wire transfer in immediately available funds to such account designated in writing by Seller, the remaining portion of the Indemnification Holdback Amount held for such resolved claims and not required to satisfy such applicable resolved claims, if any.

 

Section 7.03 Revenue Holdback Release. Subject to Section 5.04 of this Agreement regarding “Funds Collected Post-Closing”, and provided that (i) Seller and Equity Owner are not in breach of this Agreement, and (ii) no Claims have arisen with respect to the Purchased Assets and/or the Business, Purchaser shall release to the Seller the Revenue Holdback Amount within three (3) business days after the Revenue Holdback Expiration Date.

 

Section 7.04 Release.

(c) Each Equity Owner and Seller represents and warrants that it has not assigned or transferred (by subrogation, operation of law or otherwise) any portion of any of the Claims being waived and released pursuant to this Section 7.03. Each Equity Owner and Seller promises it has not filed and never to authorize, file, initiate or otherwise institute any such Claims in any court, arbitral forum or other tribunal (whether public or private). Furthermore, if such Seller or Equity Owner or someone else initiates a claim or action of the type waived and released above (in any forum), such Seller or Equity Owner hereby agrees not to seek, obtain or accept, and expressly to forego and to waive, any damages, remedies, relief or other recovery to which he or it may otherwise be or have been entitled to obtain as a result of such action or other person’s claim or action.
