Non-Assumption of Liabilities Neither Party shall be liable for the prior, existing or future obligations, liabilities or debts of the other Party.
Assumption of Liabilities Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, Acquisition Subsidiary agrees, effective at the time of Closing, to assume all obligations and liabilities of Seller of any kind, character or description, arising exclusively or primarily out of the conduct of the Business (the "ASSUMED LIABILITIES"), except for the Excluded Liabilities, including, without limitation, the following: (a) Accounts payable which are either disclosed on the Most Recent Balance Sheet or incurred by Seller in the ordinary course of operating the Business between January 1, 2004 and the Closing; (b) Liabilities and obligations related to customer deposits which are either disclosed on the Most Recent Balance Sheet or incurred by Seller in the ordinary course of operating the Business between January 1, 2004 and the Closing; (c) Accrued payroll (including bonuses in the ordinary course of business) and accrued vacation and sick time which are either disclosed on the Most Recent Balance Sheet or incurred in the ordinary course of operating the Business between January 1, 2004 and the Closing; (d) Other accrued liabilities relating to the Business (of the nature included in the Most Recent Balance Sheet in the line item "Other accrued liabilities") which are either disclosed on the Most Recent Balance Sheet or incurred by Seller in the ordinary course of operating the Business between January 1, 2004 and the Closing; (e) Indebtedness to certain related parties of Seller, after giving effect to the transfer of the Excluded Real Property, subject to a mortgage or deed of trust securing the Real Estate Facility, to the holder(s) of such indebtedness in exchange for the cancellation of a portion of such indebtedness (the "RELATED PARTY DEBT"), as more particularly described in SCHEDULE 2.3(e) of the Disclosure Schedule; and (f) Seller's obligations under the Assumed Contracts.
Novation of Liabilities (a) Each Party, at the request of another Party, shall use best efforts to obtain, or to cause to be obtained, any Consent, substitution or amendment required to novate or assign all obligations under Contracts, licenses and other obligations or Liabilities for which a member of such Party’s Group and a member of another Party’s Group are jointly or severally liable and that do not constitute Liabilities of such other Party as provided in this Agreement (such other Party, the “Other Party”), or to obtain in writing the unconditional release of all parties to such arrangements (other than any member of the Group who Assumed or retained such Liability as set forth in this Agreement), so that, in any such case, the members of the applicable Group will be solely responsible for such Liabilities; provided, however, that no Party shall be obligated to pay any consideration therefor to any third party from whom any such Consent, substitution or amendment is requested (unless such Party is fully reimbursed by the requesting Party). (b) If the Parties are unable to obtain, or to cause to be obtained, any such required Consent, release, substitution or amendment, the Other Party or a member of such Other Party’s Group shall continue to be bound by such Contract, license or other obligation that does not constitute a Liability of such Other Party and, unless not permitted by Law or the terms thereof, as agent or subcontractor for such Party, the Party or member of such Party’s Group who Assumed or retained such Liability as set forth in this Agreement (the “Liable Party”) shall, or shall cause a member of its Group to, pay, perform and discharge fully all the obligations or other Liabilities of such Other Party or member of such Other Party’s Group thereunder from and after the Effective Time. The Liable Party shall indemnify each Other Party and hold each of them harmless against any Liabilities (other than Liabilities of such Other Party) arising in connection therewith; provided, that the Liable Party shall have no obligation to indemnify any Other Party with respect to any matter to the extent that such Other Party has engaged in any knowing violation of Law, fraud or misrepresentation in connection therewith. The Other Party shall, without further consideration, promptly pay and remit, or cause to be promptly paid or remitted, to the Liable Party or to another member of the Liable Party’s Group, all money, rights and other consideration received by it or any member of its Group in respect of such performance by the Liable Party (unless any such consideration is an Asset of such Other Party pursuant to this Agreement). If and when any such Consent, release, substitution or amendment shall be obtained or such agreement, lease, license or other rights or obligations shall otherwise become assignable or able to be novated, the Other Party shall promptly Transfer all rights, obligations and other Liabilities thereunder of any member of such Other Party’s Group to the Liable Party or to another member of the Liable Party’s Group without payment of any further consideration and the Liable Party, or another member of such Liable Party’s Group, without the payment of any further consideration, shall Assume such rights and Liabilities. (c) If the Liable Party (i) suffers a downgrade to its senior debt credit rating to below BB (as rated by Standard & Poor’s) or (ii) no longer has its debt securities rated by any nationally recognized credit rating agencies, then, upon the demand of the Other Party, such Liable Party shall be required to post an irrevocable letter of credit or similar security obligation reasonably acceptable to the Other Party in an amount reasonably necessary to provide security to the Other Party for the Liable Party’s obligations pursuant to Section 2.9(b); provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply with respect to Assumed Tyco Contingent Liability. For the avoidance of doubt, the posting of such a letter of credit or similar security obligation shall in no event relieve the issuing Party’s obligations pursuant to Section 2.9(b), and shall not result in a cap or limitation on such Party’s Liabilities with respect thereto.

IN NO EVENT SHALL LICENSOR BE LIABLE TO LICENSEE OR ANY SUBLICENSEE OR ANY OTHER ENTITY FOR ANY DAMAGES OR LOSS CAUSED BY DELAY IN DELIVERY OR FURNISHING OF DATA USING THE INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY. IN ADDITION, LICENSOR SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND WHATSOEVER IN EXCESS OF TWO MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS ($2,500,000.00). THE FOREGOING LIMITATIONS SHALL NOT APPLY TO (I) INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS; (II) ANY CLAIMS FOR PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH, OR DAMAGE TO PROPERTY; OR (III) ANY CLAIMS BASED UPON LICENSOR'S GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT; OR (IV) BREACHES OF THE CONFIDENTIALITY OBLIGATIONS.
Assumption of Liability Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, Licensee shall be solely responsible for any product liability, liability for death, illness, personal injury, improper business practice or any other statutory liability or any other liability under any law or regulation in respect of the Compound, Product and/or Licensed Product.
Limitation of Liability of Adviser and its Personnel Neither the Adviser nor any director, manager, officer or employee of the Adviser performing services for the Trust at the direction or request of the Adviser in connection with the Adviser's discharge of its obligations hereunder shall be liable for any error of judgment or mistake of law or for any loss suffered by the Trust in connection with any matter to which this Agreement relates, and the Adviser shall not be responsible for any action of the Trustees of the Trust in following or declining to follow any advice or recommendation of the Adviser or any sub-adviser retained by the Adviser pursuant to Section 9 of this Agreement; PROVIDED, that nothing herein contained shall be construed (i) to protect the Adviser against any liability to the Trust or its shareholders to which the Adviser would otherwise be subject by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith, or gross negligence in the performance of the Adviser's duties, or by reason of the Adviser's reckless disregard of its obligations and duties under this Agreement, or (ii) to protect any director, manager, officer or employee of the Adviser who is or was a Trustee or officer of the Trust against any liability of the Trust or its shareholders to which such person would otherwise be subject by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of such person's office with the Trust.
Limitation of Liability of the Adviser The Adviser shall not be liable for any error of judgment or mistake of law or for any loss arising out of any investment or for any act or omission in the execution and management of the Fund, except for willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of its duties and obligations hereunder. As used in this Article 6, the term "Adviser" shall include Directors, officers and employees of the Adviser as well as that corporation itself.
Limitation of Liability of Sub-Adviser (a) The Sub-Adviser shall be liable for losses resulting from its own acts or omissions caused by the Sub-Adviser’s willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of its duties hereunder or its reckless disregard of its duties under this Agreement, and nothing herein shall protect the Sub-Adviser against any such liability to the shareholders of the Fund or to the Adviser. Except as provided in the previous sentence, the Sub-Adviser shall not be liable to the Fund or to any shareholder of the Fund or to the Adviser for any claim or loss arising out of any investment or other act or omission in the performance of the Sub-Adviser’s duties under this Agreement, or for any loss or damage resulting from the imposition by any government of exchange control restrictions which might affect the liquidity of the Fund’s assets maintained with custodians or securities depositories in foreign countries, or from any political acts of any foreign governments to which such assets might be exposed, or for any tax of any kind (other than taxes on the Sub-Adviser’s income), including without limitation any statutory, governmental, state, provincial, regional, local or municipal imposition, duty, contribution or levy imposed by any government or governmental agency upon or with respect to such assets or income earned with respect thereto (collectively “Taxation”). Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence and the provisions of Section 5(b), the Sub-Adviser shall be liable for taxes or tax penalties incurred by the Fund, or by any legal or beneficial owner of the Fund’s shares, for any failure of the Portfolio to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M, or to meet the diversification requirements of Section 817(h), of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, to the extent resulting from the Sub-Adviser’s management of the Portfolio. (b) In the event the Sub-Adviser is assessed any Taxation in respect of the assets, income or activities of the Portfolio, the Adviser and the Fund jointly will indemnify the Sub-Adviser for all such amounts wherever imposed, together with all penalties, charges, costs and interest relating thereto and all expenditures, including reasonable attorney’s fees, incurred by the Sub-Adviser in connection with the defense or settlement of any such assessment. The Sub-Adviser shall undertake and control the defense or settlement of any such assessment, including the selection of counsel or other professional advisers, provided that the selection of such counsel and advisers and the settlement of any assessment shall be subject to the approval of the Adviser and the Fund, which approvals shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Adviser and the Fund shall have the right to retain separate counsel and assume the defense or settlement on behalf of the Adviser and the Fund, as the case may be, of any such assessment if representation of the Adviser and the Fund by counsel selected by the Sub-Adviser would be inappropriate due to actual or potential conflicts of interest.
