Seller shall bear any and all obligations and liability under the WARN Act resulting from employment losses pursuant to this Section 6.01.

(b) Except for the Specified Obligations, Seller shall be solely responsible, and Buyer shall have no obligations whatsoever for, any compensation or other amounts payable to any current or former employee, officer, director, independent contractor or consultant of the Business, including, without limitation, hourly pay, commission, bonus (including any ‘sale’ bonus or ‘stay’ bonus but not the Retention Bonuses), salary, accrued vacation, fringe, pension or profit sharing benefits or severance pay for any period relating to the service with Seller at any time on or prior to the Closing Date and Seller shall pay all such amounts to all entitled persons on, or prior to or coincident with, the Closing Date.

(c) Seller shall remain solely responsible for the satisfaction of all claims for medical, dental, life insurance, health accident or disability benefits brought by or in respect of current or former employees, officers, directors, independent contractors or consultants of the Business or the spouses, dependents or beneficiaries thereof; which claims relate to events occurring on or prior to the Closing Date. Seller also shall remain solely responsible for all worker’s compensation claims of any current or former employees, officers, directors, independent contractors or consultants of the Business which relate to events occurring on or prior to the Closing Date. Seller shall pay, or cause to be paid, all such amounts to the appropriate persons as and when due.

(d) Effective as soon as practicable following the Closing Date, Seller, or any applicable Affiliate, shall effect a transfer of assets and liabilities (including outstanding loans) from the defined contribution retirement plan that it maintains, to the defined contribution retirement plan maintained by Buyer, with respect to those employees of the Business who become employed by Buyer, or an Affiliate of Buyer, in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Any such transfer shall be in an amount sufficient to satisfy Section 414(1) of the Code.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Seller shall continue to maintain any Benefit Plan which is subject to COBRA and shall make COBRA continuation coverage available for participation by any M&A Qualified Beneficiary.

Reference to the terms “Affiliates” and “Representatives” as set forth in this Section 6.02 shall not include any of the Key Employees or any other employees of Seller that are retained by Buyer.

Section 6.03 Non-Competition; Non-Solicitation. In consideration for the acquisition of the Purchased Assets and the benefits to be received by Seller Parties (defined below) therefrom, and as an additional inducement to Buyer to enter into and perform their obligations under this Agreement, Seller Parties hereby agree to the following restrictive covenants:

(a) For a period of five (5) years commencing on the Closing (the “Restricted Period”), each Seller Party shall not, and shall not permit any of their Affiliates to, directly or indirectly, (i) engage in or assist others in engaging in the Restricted Business in the Territory;

(ii) have an interest in any Person that engages directly or indirectly in the Restricted Business in the Territory in any capacity, including as a partner, shareholder, member, employee, principal, agent, trustee or consultant; or (iii) cause, induce or encourage any material actual or prospective client, customer, supplier or licensor of the Business (including any existing or former client or customer of Seller and any Person that becomes a client or customer of the Business after the Closing), or any other Person who has a material business relationship with the Business, to terminate or modify any such actual or prospective relationship. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Seller Party may own, directly or indirectly, solely as an investment, securities of any Person traded on any national securities exchange if Seller is not a controlling Person of, or a member of a group which controls, such Person and does not, directly or indirectly, own three percent (3%) or more of any class of securities of such Person.

(b) During the Restricted Period, each Seller Party shall not, and shall not permit any of their Affiliates to, directly or indirectly, hire, engage as an independent contractor or solicit any employee or independent contractor of Buyer or its Affiliates or encourage any such employee or independent contractor to leave such employment or hire any such employee or independent contractor who has left such employment, except that a Seller Party may hire such a Person, other than any Key Employee, pursuant to a general solicitation which is not directed specifically to any such employees; provided, that nothing in this Section 6.03(b) shall prevent a Seller Party or any of its Affiliates from hiring (i) any employee whose employment has been terminated by Buyer or (ii) after one hundred eighty (180) days from the date of termination of employment, any employee whose employment has been terminated by the employee, in each case, other than a Key Employee.

(c) Seller Parties acknowledge that a breach or threatened breach of this Section 6.03 would give rise to irreparable harm to Buyer, for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy, and hereby agrees that in the event of a breach or a threatened breach by a Seller Party of any such obligations, Buyer shall, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies that may be available to it in respect of such breach, be entitled to equitable relief, including a temporary restraining order, an injunction, specific performance and any other relief that may be available from a court of competent jurisdiction (without any requirement to post bond).

(d) Seller Parties acknowledge that the restrictions contained in this Section 6.03 are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate interests of Buyer and constitute a material inducement to Buyer to enter into this Agreement and consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In the event that any covenant contained in this Section 6.03 should ever be adjudicated to exceed the time, geographic, product or service or other limitations permitted by applicable Law in any jurisdiction, then any court is expressly empowered to reform such covenant, and such covenant shall be deemed reformed, in such jurisdiction to the maximum time, geographic, product or service or other limitations permitted by applicable Law. The covenants contained in this Section 6.03 and each provision hereof are severable and distinct covenants and provisions. The invalidity or unenforceability of any such covenant or provision as written shall not invalidate or render unenforceable the remaining covenants or provisions hereof, and any such invalidity or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such covenant or provision in any other jurisdiction.

(e) For purposes of this Section 6.03, “Seller Party” means Seller and Owners and “Seller Parties” means Seller and Owners, collectively. Reference to the term “Affiliates” as set forth in this Section 6.03 shall not include any of the Key Employees or any other employees of Seller that are employed by Buyer.

Each party shall give notice to the other party with respect to any meeting, discussion, appearance or contact with any Governmental Authority or the staff or regulators of any Governmental Authority, with such notice being sufficient to provide the other party with the opportunity to attend and participate in such meeting, discussion, appearance or contact.

(b) Notwithstanding Section 6.09(a), all transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration, value added and other such Taxes and fees (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with this Agreement, the Ancillary Documents (including any real property transfer Tax and any other similar Tax) shall be borne and paid by Seller when due from Seller. Seller shall, at its own expense, timely file any Tax Return or other document with respect to such Taxes or fees (and Buyer shall cooperate with respect thereto as necessary).

(c) Seller and Owners, jointly and severally on the one hand, and Buyer, jointly and severally on the other hand, shall provide reimbursement for any Taxes paid by one party all

or a portion of which is the responsibility of the other party in accordance with the terms of this Section 6.09. Within a reasonable time prior to the payment of any such Taxes, the party paying such Taxes shall give notice to the other party of the Taxes payable and the portion which is the liability of each party, although failure to give such notice will not relieve the other party from its liability hereunder.

(ii) reasonably cooperate fully in preparing for any audits of, or disputes with Governmental Authorities regarding, any Tax Returns of the Business or the Purchased Assets;

The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to participate in, or by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party acknowledging such Third Party Claim is covered as indemnifiable under Section 7.02 or Section 7.03, respectively, to assume the control of the defense of any Third Party Claim at the Indemnifying Party’s expense and by the Indemnifying Party’s own counsel, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate in good faith in such defense; provided, that if the Indemnifying Party is Seller, such Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to defend or direct the defense of any such Third Party Claim that (i) is asserted directly by or on behalf of a Person that is a supplier or customer of the Business, (ii) seeks an injunction or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party, or (iii) asserts or alleges any criminal violation or material violation by the Business with any Law; provided, further, that the Indemnifying Party shall forfeit its right to assume the control of the defense of a Third Party Claim if it shall not promptly appoint counsel and continue diligently to pursue such defense to resolution or if such Indemnifying Party cannot show, to the reasonable satisfaction of the Indemnified Party, adequate resources to fund such defense. In the event that the Indemnifying Party assumes control of the defense of any Third Party Claim, subject to Section 7.05(e), it shall have the right to take such action as it deems necessary to avoid, dispute, defend, appeal or make counterclaims pertaining to any such Third Party Claim in the name and on behalf of the Indemnified Party.

(c) Participation by 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, if any, 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 that are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party or (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 for which the Indemnified Party so determines separate counsel 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 in this Agreement, or fails to diligently prosecute the defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party may, subject to Section 7.05(e), pay, compromise, defend such Third Party Claim and seek indemnification for any and all Losses based upon, arising from or relating to such Third Party Claim.

(d) Cooperation. Seller and Buyer’s Representative shall cooperate with each other in all reasonable respects in connection with the defense of any Third Party Claim, including making available (subject to the provisions of Section 6.02) records relating to such Third Party Claim and furnishing, without expense (other than reimbursement of actual out-of-pocket expenses) to the defending party, management employees of the non-defending party as may be reasonably necessary for the preparation of the defense of such Third Party Claim.

(e) 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, which Consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed, except as provided in this Section 7.05(e). 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 such Third Party Claim. If the Indemnified Party has assumed the defense of a Third Party Claim, it shall not agree to any settlement without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

Section 7.06 Payments; Escrow Fund.

(a) Once a Loss is agreed to by the Indemnifying Party or finally adjudicated to be payable pursuant to this ARTICLE VII, the Indemnifying Party shall satisfy its obligations within five (5) Business Days of such agreement or final, non-appealable adjudication by wire transfer of immediately available funds. The parties hereto agree that should an Indemnifying Party not make full payment of any such obligations within such five (5) Business Day period, any amount payable shall accrue interest from and including the date of agreement of the Indemnifying Party or final, non-appealable adjudication to and including the date such payment has been made at a rate per annum equal to eight percent (8%). Such interest shall be calculated daily on the basis of a three hundred sixty-five (365) day year and the actual number of days elapsed, compounding monthly until paid in full.

(b) Subject to Section 7.10 and Section 7.11, any Losses payable to a Buyer Indemnitee pursuant to Section 7.02(a) for inaccuracy or breach of any of the Fundamental Representations, or pursuant to Section 7.02(b), Section 7.02(c), Section 7.02(d), Section 7.02(e), Section 7.02(g), Section 7.02(h) or Section 7.02(i) shall be satisfied in the following order: (i) payment from the Escrow Fund; or (ii) by setting off Losses against the value of any Earnout Payments paid or unpaid to Seller; or (iii) payment from the Seller and Owners, jointly and severally; provided, for the avoidance of doubt, that, if the Buyer Indemnitees shall seek to recover any such Losses from the Escrow Fund, the Seller and Owner shall be relieved of liability for such Losses only to the extent that the Buyer Indemnitees shall actually recover such Losses from the Escrow Fund.

Section 7.07 Tax Treatment of Indemnification Payments. All indemnification payments made under this Agreement shall be treated by the parties as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Law.

Section 7.08 Effect of Investigation; Reliance; Representations Cumulative. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, the representations, warranties and covenants of the Indemnifying Party, and the Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification with respect thereto, shall not be affected or deemed waived by reason of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Party (including by any of its Representatives) or by reason of the fact that the Indemnified Party or any of its Representatives knew or should have known that any such representation or warranty is, was or might be inaccurate. All of the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement, the Ancillary Documents or any certificate or instrument delivered pursuant to this Agreement are material. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, the consummation by a party of the Closing shall constitute prima facie evidence that the party to whom any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement, the Ancillary Documents or any certificate or instrument delivered pursuant to this Agreement has been made has specifically relied thereon in consummating the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The representations and warranties in this Agreement, the Ancillary Documents and any certification or instruments delivered pursuant to this Agreement are cumulative, and an Indemnified Party shall be entitled to bring a claim for Losses arising from the inaccuracy or breach of any one or more of such representations or warranties notwithstanding that one or more other such representations or warranties may treat the subject matter of such Losses with greater or lesser particularity.

Section 7.09 Exclusive Remedies. Subject to Section 2.06, Section 6.03(c) and Section 8.12, the parties acknowledge and agree that their sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all claims (other than claims arising from fraud, criminal activity or willful and intentional misconduct, or knowing or reckless misrepresentation, on the part of a party hereto in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) 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 VII. In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereby waives, 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 and each of their respective Representatives arising under or based upon any Law, except pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this ARTICLE VII. Nothing in this Section 7.09 shall limit any Person’s right to seek and obtain any equitable relief to which any Person shall be entitled or to seek any available remedy on account of any party’s fraud, knowing or reckless misrepresentation, or other criminal or willful and intentional misconduct and any indemnification rights under this ARTICLE VII shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, such other relief or remedy.

Section 7.10 Limitations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement:

(a) The indemnities herein are intended solely for the benefit of the Persons expressly identified in this ARTICLE VII (and their permitted successors and assigns) and are in no way intended to, nor shall they, constitute an agreement for the benefit of, or be enforceable by, any other Person.

(b) Payments by an Indemnifying Party under this ARTICLE VII in respect of any Loss shall be limited to the amount of any liability or damage that remains after deducting therefrom any insurance proceeds and any indemnity, contribution or other similar payment received or reasonably expected to be received by the Indemnified Party in respect of any such claim. The Indemnified Party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to recover under insurance policies or indemnity, contribution or other similar agreements for any Losses prior to seeking indemnification under this Agreement.

(c) Payments by an Indemnifying Party pursuant to this ARTICLE VII in respect of any Loss shall be reduced by an amount equal to any Tax benefit realized or reasonably expected to be realized as a result of such Loss by the Indemnified Party.

(d) In no event shall any Indemnifying Party be liable to an Indemnified Party for any punitive, incidental, consequential, special or indirect damages, including loss of future revenue or income, loss of profits, loss of business reputation or opportunity relating to the breach or alleged breach of this Agreement, or diminution of value or any damages based on any type of multiple.

(e) Each Indemnified Party shall take, and cause its Affiliates to take, all reasonable steps to mitigate any Loss upon becoming aware of any event or circumstances that would be reasonably expected to, or does, give rise thereto, including incurring costs only to the minimum extent necessary to remedy the breach that gives rise to such Loss. Each Indemnified Party shall use its reasonable efforts not to pay or accrue any such Losses until it has provided the Indemnifying Party with prior written notice and the reasonable opportunity to defend, address, mediate, resolve, or otherwise mitigate any such potential Losses.

(f) The indemnities herein are further subject to, and limited by, the other terms and provisions of this ARTICLE VII.

Section 7.11 Indemnification Basket and Cap Amount.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, subject to the terms, conditions and limitations set forth in this ARTICLE VII, Seller Parties shall not be liable hereunder to Buyer Indemnified Parties as a result of any breach of any of the representations or warranties of Seller Parties, unless and until the Losses incurred by Buyer Indemnified Parties as a result of such breaches exceed in, the aggregate, $125,000 (the “Basket”); provided, however, that after the total of all Losses with respect to such claims exceeds the amount of the Basket, the Basket will be disregarded, and Seller Parties, subject to the terms, conditions and limitations set forth in this ARTICLE VII, will be liable for one hundred percent (100%) of all Losses with respect to all such claims. All references to “material,” “materiality,” “Material Adverse Effect” and “Knowledge” shall be disregarded for purposes of determining whether there is a Loss hereunder.

(b) Subject to the terms, conditions and limitations set forth in this ARTICLE VII, the aggregate amount required to be paid by all of Seller Parties as a result of any breach of any of the representations and warranties of any of Seller Parties, other than a breach of the Fundamental Representations or any breaches on account of fraud or willful and intentional misconduct, shall not exceed, in the aggregate, $1,400,000 (the “Cap Amount”).

Section 7.12 Additional Limitations. An Indemnified Party shall not be entitled to indemnification for any Losses pursuant to this Agreement (including the indemnities set forth in ARTICLE VII) to the extent such Losses (i) would not have arisen had the Indemnified Party adhered to its common law duty to mitigate any potential Losses upon and after becoming aware of any event or condition which could reasonably be expected to give rise to any Losses that are indemnifiable hereunder, (ii) are directly attributable to its fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Indemnified Party, (iii) that are attributable to an Indemnified Party’s failure to notify the Indemnified Party of its Knowledge of a breach or representation, but only to the extent such failure to notify directly results in the Loss, or (iv) are of a punitive, consequential, incidental or exemplary nature, including, but not limited to, lost profits and lost business/investment opportunities (unless such Losses are sought by or payable to a third party). Furthermore, to the extent an Indemnified Party is indemnified by an Indemnifying Party or any of such Indemnifying Party’s equity holders based on the indirect liability of such equity holder, then the Indemnified Party will not be entitled to any duplicative recovery for that same Loss as an indemnification claim against another Indemnifying Party or any of such Indemnifying Party’s equity holders based on the indirect liability of such equity holders pursuant to this ARTICLE VII. With respect to any claim for indemnification, the Indemnified Party will use its good faith efforts not to incur any Losses until such time as it has provided the Indemnifying Party with written notice and a thirty (30) day period in which to cure any such claim; provided, however, where such claim is not reasonably capable of being cured within said thirty (30) day period, the Indemnifying Party shall have up to an additional thirty (30) days in which to use its good faith efforts to remedy or cure any such claim.
