Allocation of Liability It is expressly understood and agreed that the Seller shall be liable to third parties for any and all obligations, claims, losses, damages, liabilities, and expenses to the extent arising out of events, contractual obligations, acts, or omissions of the Seller that occurred in connection with the ownership or operation of the Property during the period in which the Seller owned the Property prior to the Closing and the Purchaser shall be liable to third parties for any and all obligations, claims, losses, damages, liabilities and expenses to the extent arising out of events, contractual obligations, acts, or omissions of the Purchaser that occur in connection with the ownership or operation of the Property during the period in which the Purchaser owns the Property after the Closing. The provisions of this Section 12.1 shall survive the Closing.
Allocation of Liabilities (a) The parties agree that in the event that liabilities are incurred by any party hereto or any Subsidiary thereof directly relating to, arising out of or resulting from a final, non-appealable judgment being entered, or any settlement permitted hereby being entered into, in connection with the Lawsuit, such liabilities ("IRI Liabilities") shall be allocated among the parties as follows: (i) ACNielsen agrees to assume exclusive liability for the IRI Liabilities up to the ACN Maximum Amount; and (ii) Cognizant and D&B each agree to assume exclusive liability for 50% of any IRI Liabilities not payable by ACNielsen pursuant to this Agreement. (b) No later than five business days after the date on which any IRI Liabilities are incurred, ACNielsen shall give notice to each of Cognizant and D&B of the amount of such IRI Liabilities which ACNielsen will then pay (such amount, the "ACN Payment") and of the amount which ACNielsen has determined to be the ACN Maximum Amount, and ACNielsen will deliver the ACN Payment to Counsel of Record for delivery to the plaintiff in the Lawsuit. Each of Cognizant and D&B agrees to pay to the plaintiff in the Lawsuit on the Payment Date an amount equal to 50% of the excess (if any) of (x) the aggregate amount of the IRI Liabilities over (y) the ACN Payment (such amount, the "Cognizant/D&B Payment"). In the event Cognizant or D&B disputes or disagrees with ACNielsen's determination of the ACN Maximum Amount, the dispute shall be resolved and the ACN Maximum Amount determined as described in Section 2.2. (c) Upon the payment of the Cognizant/D&B Payment pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, ACNielsen shall issue a note (an "ACN Note") to each of Cognizant and D&B. The principal amount of each ACN Note shall be equal to the Note Amount, as defined below, and each such ACN Note shall be in the form of Schedule A hereto. Interest on the Note Amount as finally determined for each ACN Note shall accrue at a rate equal to the rate of interest per annum publicly announced from time to time by The Chase Manhattan Bank as its prime rate in effect at its principal office in New York City and shall be payable at maturity. For purposes hereof, the "Note Amount" of each Note shall initially be equal to the Cognizant/D&B Payment, provided, however, (i) that upon the determination of the ACN Maximum Amount, if the Note Amount is greater than 50% of the difference between the ACN Maximum Amount and the ACN Payment, then the Note Amount shall be reduced to and shall equal 50% of such difference, and (ii) that upon receipt of the aggregate amount of proceeds generated by any Recapitalization Plan (as defined below) upon completion thereof in accordance with the first sentence of Section 2.2(g), if the Note Amount (after giving effect to any adjustment pursuant to clause (i)) is greater than 50% of the amount of such proceeds, then the Note Amount shall be reduced to and shall equal 50% of the amount of such proceeds. The Note Amount, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, shall be payable upon the earlier of (x) the completion of the Recapitalization Plan, provided, however, that if the Recapitalization Plan is structured to generate proceeds which are receivable by ACNielsen at different times without being contingent upon the completion of any other aspect of the Recapitalization Plan, then at each time that proceeds are so received, 50% of such proceeds shall be payable to each of Cognizant and D&B, and the receipt by Cognizant and D&B of their respective share of such proceeds shall reduce the then applicable Note Amount accordingly, and (y) the declaration by the Payee of an ACN Note (as defined therein) that such Note Amount and interest thereon are immediately due and payable in accordance with the terms of such ACN Note upon determination being made under Section 2.2(g) hereof that ACNielsen has not exercised its good faith best efforts to implement the Recapitalization Plan as soon as practicable, or as otherwise provided by such ACN Note. (d) Immediately after the Payment Date, ACNielsen agrees to grant to, and to cause each of its Subsidiaries to grant to, Cognizant and D&B, as collateral security for the payment and performance of ACNielsen's obligations under the ACN Notes and otherwise to indemnify Cognizant and D&B against any IRI Liabilities as required by this Article II, a perfected first priority security interest in all of its tangible and intangible assets (including, without limitation, intellectual property, real property and all of the capital stock of each of its direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries and first-tier foreign subsidiaries), to the extent permitted by any other bona fide security or other similar agreements with third-parties not controlled by ACNielsen or any of its Affiliates, pursuant to such documents (the "Security Documents") as Cognizant and D&B shall deem reasonably necessary or advisable to grant to them a perfected first priority lien on such assets. Each of the Security Documents shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Cognizant and D&B, shall contain terms and conditions which are usual and customary for similar documents delivered in secured financings and shall include guarantees executed and delivered by each of ACNielsen's Subsidiaries which shall be secured by the security interests granted by such Subsidiaries pursuant to the Security Documents. Without limiting the foregoing, ACNielsen agrees to take, and to cause each of its Subsidiaries to take, all actions necessary or advisable to cause the liens granted pursuant to the Security Documents to be duly perfected in accordance with all applicable requirements of law, including, without limitation, the filing of financing statements in such jurisdictions as may be requested by Cognizant and D&B and the delivery to Cognizant and D&B (or their representative) of any certificates representing pledged stock, together with undated stock powers executed and delivered in blank by a duly authorized officer of ACNielsen or the relevant Subsidiary.
