(e) Seller shall not be required to indemnify the Buyer Indemnified Parties under Section 8.1(a)(i) unless and until the amount of all Losses for which indemnification is sought by the Buyer Indemnified Parties thereunder first exceeds $1,000,000 (the “Deductible”), in which event all amounts sought by the Buyer Indemnified Parties in excess of the Deductible shall be subject to indemnification; provided, however, that Seller’s aggregate obligation to indemnify the Buyer Indemnified Parties under Sections 8.1(a)(i) and (iii) shall not exceed $12,000,000 (the “Cap”). Losses for breaches or inaccuracies of the Fundamental Representations shall not be subject to the Deductible or the Cap, but in no event shall exceed the Purchase Price.

Once Buyer has received indemnity proceeds from any combination of the Escrow Account or Seller that equals the Cap, Seller shall have no further liability to Buyer pursuant to Sections 8.1(a)(i) and (iii), except with respect to the Fundamental Representations, the Buyer Indemnified Parties agree to surrender to Seller any and all of their right, title and interest in and to the Environmental Insurance Policy and execute such documentation as may be required by Seller or the insurer thereunder to effectuate such surrender.

(f) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, none of the ClosingBuyer Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to, and the Buyer Indemnified Parties shall be deemed to have waived all claims and rights to, indemnification hereunder for any Losses to the extent that reserves or accruals have been established or reflected on the Final Balance Sheet for the Losses for which indemnification is sought. All Losses claimed by a Buyer Indemnified Party pursuant to this Article VIII (whether or not resolved through the provisions hereof) shall not be the subject of any adjustment pursuant to Section 2.3 and, by making a claim for indemnification under this Article VIII, Buyer, on behalf of itself and the other Buyer Indemnified Parties, shall be deemed to have waived any rights it or they may have under Section 2.3 with respect to any such Losses.
(g) For purposes of determining whether the thresholds in this Section 8.1 have been surpassed and/or determining the amount of any Losses subject to indemnification under this Section 8.1, all “material,” “Material Adverse Effect,” “material and adverse” or similar materiality type qualifications contained in any representations and warranties shall be disregarded; provided, however, that (i) such qualifications contained in Section 3.10 shall not be disregarded for such purposes and (ii) when such qualifications are used in a definitional manner (e.g., Material Contract), such qualifications shall not be disregarded.

Losses for breaches or inaccuracies of the Fundamental Representations shall not be subject to the Deductible or the Cap, but in no event shall exceed the Purchase Price. Losses under Section 8.1(a)(iii) shall not be subject to the Deductible but shall be subject to the Cap. The aggregate amount of insurance proceeds received by the Buyer Indemnified Parties under any actual fraud Environmental Insurance Policy pursuant to Section 8.1(d) shall also be credited towards satisfaction of the Cap and shall also be credited towards the Escrow Account to the extent set forth in Section 8.4(b). Once Buyer has received indemnity proceeds from any combination of the Escrow Account or Seller that equals the Cap, Seller shall have no further liability to Buyer pursuant to Sections 8.1(a)(i) and (iii), except with respect to the Fundamental Representations, the Buyer Indemnified Parties agree to surrender to Seller any and all of their right, title and interest in and to the Environmental Insurance Policy and execute such documentation as may be required by Seller or the insurer thereunder to effectuate such surrender. The Deductible and the Cap shall not apply to any of Seller’s indemnification obligations under Section 8.1(a)(ii), but in no event shall Seller’s aggregate obligation to indemnify the Acquired Companies prior to or as Buyer Indemnified Parties under Section 8.1(a)(ii) exceed the Purchase Price.

(g) For purposes of determining whether the thresholds in this Section 8.1 have been surpassed and/or determining the amount of any Losses subject to indemnification under this Section 8.1, all “material,” “Material Adverse Effect,” “material and adverse” or similar materiality type qualifications contained in any representations and warranties shall be disregarded; provided, however, that (i) such qualifications contained in Section 3.10 shall not be disregarded for such purposes and (ii) when such qualifications are used in a definitional manner (e.g., Material Contract), such qualifications shall not be disregarded.
