Indemnity Escrow (i) At or prior to the Closing, Pubco, the Seller Representative and American Stock Transfer & Trust Company (or such other escrow agent mutually acceptable to Purchaser and the Company), as escrow agent (the “Escrow Agent”), shall enter into an Escrow Agreement, effective as of the Effective Time, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser and the Company (the “Escrow Agreement”), pursuant to which Pubco shall cause to be delivered to the Escrow Agent a number of Class B Exchange Shares (each valued at the Redemption Price) equal to (x) fifteen percent (15%) of the estimated Exchange Consideration, divided by (y) the Redemption Price otherwise issuable to the Sellers at the Closing based on the Estimated Closing Statement (such Class B Exchange Shares, together with any equity securities paid as dividends or distributions with respect to such shares or into which such shares are exchanged or converted, in each case, as long as they remain in the Indemnity Escrow Account, the “Indemnity Escrow Shares”) to be held, along with any other dividends, distributions or other income on the Indemnity Escrow Shares, in each case, as long as they remain in the Indemnity Escrow Account (together with the Indemnity Escrow Shares, the “Indemnity Escrow Property”), in a segregated escrow account (the “Indemnity Escrow Account”) and disbursed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement. The portion of the Class B Exchange Shares that shall be withheld at the Closing for deposit in the Indemnity Escrow Account, and any disbursement from the Indemnity Escrow Account to Pubco, shall be allocated between the Class B Sellers based on each such Seller’s relative Pro Rata Share (as between themselves). The Indemnity Escrow Shares shall serve as the sole and exclusive source of payment of the obligations of the Sellers under Section 2.5(d) and the obligations of the Indemnitors pursuant to Article IX (other than with respect to (A) Fraud Claims or (B) any indemnification claims for breach of any Company and Seller Fundamental Representations, for which the Main Seller shall be solely responsible). Unless otherwise required by Law, all distributions made from the Indemnity Escrow Account shall be treated by the Parties as an adjustment to the Exchange Consideration received by the Sellers pursuant to Article II hereof. Each Class B Seller shall be deemed to be the owner of such Seller’s relative Pro Rata Share (as between themselves) of the Indemnity Escrow Shares during the time such Indemnity Escrow Shares are held in the Indemnity Escrow Account, subject to the retention of any dividends, distributions and other earnings thereon in the Indemnity Escrow Account until disbursed therefrom in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement. Each Class B Seller shall have the right to vote such Seller’s relative Pro Rata Share (as between themselves) of the Indemnity Escrow Shares (together with any equity securities paid as dividends or distributions with respect to such shares or into which such shares are exchanged or converted) during the time held in the Indemnity Escrow Account as Indemnity Escrow Shares.
(ii) (A) Within three (3) Business Days after the twelve (12) month anniversary of the Closing Date (such anniversary, the “First Escrow Release Date”), the Purchaser Representative and Seller Representatives shall give joint written instruction to the Escrow Agent directing the release of the First Released Escrow Property (if any) to the Class B Sellers; (B) within three (3) Business Days after the twenty-four (24) month anniversary (such anniversary, the “Expiration Date”), the Purchaser Representative and Seller Representatives shall give joint written instruction to the Escrow Agent directing the release of all remaining Indemnity Escrow Property (if any) to the Class B Sellers; and (C) the Indemnity Escrow Property shall not be subject to any indemnification claim to the extent such claim is made after the Expiration Date; provided, however, with respect to any indemnification claim made in accordance with Article IX hereof on or prior to the Expiration Date that remains unresolved at the time and are still contested by an Indemnitee in good faith as of the Expiration Date (any such claim, a “Pending Claim”), an amount of the Indemnity Escrow Property with a value (with respect to the Indemnity Escrow Shares, calculated based on the Pubco Share Price as of the Expiration Date) equal to the aggregate amount of the Pending Claims set forth in the Claim Notice provided by the Purchaser Representative in accordance with Section 9.4 (as adjusted in accordance with Section 9.4(b)) shall remain in the Indemnity Escrow Account until such time as such Pending Claim shall have been finally resolved and paid pursuant to the provisions of Article IX. After the Expiration Date, to the extent that the value of the remaining Indemnity Escrow Property (with respect to the Indemnity Escrow Shares, calculated based on the Pubco Share Price) exceeds the aggregate amount of (a) resolved but unpaid claims in favor of an Indemnitee and (b) the Pending Claims set forth in the Claim Notice (as adjusted in accordance with Section 9.4(b)) submitted prior to the Expiration Date, an amount of Indemnity Escrow Property having a value (with respect to the Indemnity Escrow Shares, calculated based on the Pubco Share Price) equal to such excess shall be promptly (and no later than three (3) Business Days) disbursed by the Escrow Agent to the Class B Sellers (and Purchaser Representative and Seller Representatives shall promptly give joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent directing such release), with respect to each release of the Indemnity Escrow Property to the Class B Sellers, each such Seller shall receive such Seller’s relative Pro Rata Share (as between themselves) of such Indemnity Escrow Property. Promptly after the final resolution of all Pending Claims and payment of all indemnification obligations in connection therewith, the Escrow Agent shall transfer any Indemnity Escrow Property remaining in the Indemnity Escrow Account to the Class B Sellers with each such Seller receiving such Seller’s relative Pro Rata Share (as between themselves) of such Indemnity Escrow Property.
Escrow Fund Prior to any amount being distributed to any Company Holder pursuant to Section 2.6, the Escrow Fund will be withheld from the Merger Consideration and deposited with the Escrow Agent. The Indemnity Portion of the Escrow Fund will be held for the purpose of securing the indemnification obligations of the Company set forth in this Agreement. The Adjustment Portion of the Escrow Fund will be held for the purpose of securing any obligation of the Company to make a payment to Purchaser pursuant to Section 2.13(d). The Escrow Fund will be withheld from the aggregate amount of Merger Consideration otherwise payable to each Company Holder pursuant to Section 2.6, with each Company Holder’s portion of the Escrow Fund equal to its Company Holder Percentage Interest. The Shareholders’ Agent Expense Portion of the Escrow Fund will be held for the purpose of funding any expenses of the Shareholders’ Agent arising in connection with the administration of the Shareholders’ Agent’s duties in this Agreement after the Effective Time. The Escrow Agreement will provide for (i) the release of the Adjustment Portion of the Escrow Fund remaining in the escrow account (in accordance with Company Holder Percentage Interests for any amounts payable to the Company Holders) within five (5) Business Days after the final determination of the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.13(c) (but, for the avoidance of doubt, after any required payment to Purchaser pursuant to Section 2.13(d) has been made), (ii) the release, subject to a reserve in the aggregate amount of all pending claims, of the Indemnity Portion of the Escrow Fund remaining in the escrow account (in accordance with Company Holder Percentage Interests for any amounts payable to the Company Holders) within five (5) Business Days after the earlier of (A) the date Purchaser completes an audit of the Company for 2014 (such date to be confirmed in writing by Purchaser to the Shareholders’ Agent), or (B) April 1, 2015; and (iii) the release of the Shareholders’ Agent Expense Portion of the Escrow Fund upon receipt of written notice from the Shareholders’ Agent. Following payment of the last balance remaining in the Indemnity Portion of the Escrow Fund that was reserved for a claim made by any Indemnified Persons under Section 9 of this Agreement (or the definitive withdrawal or resolution of such claim), and after payment of any Shareholders’ Agent expenses from the Shareholders’ Agent Expense Portion of the Escrow Fund, Purchaser and the Shareholders’ Agent will direct the Escrow Agent to pay to the Company Holders (or with respect to the Company Holders that were holders of Vested Company Options that were cancelled under Section 2.6(c)(i), to the Surviving Corporation for payment to the Company Holders who are entitled to such Company Holders through the Surviving Corporation’s payroll) in accordance with their Company Holder Percentage Interests an aggregate amount that is equal to any remaining balance of the Escrow Fund.
Holdback Amount Escrow Agent shall hold back in escrow from Seller’s net proceeds at Closing an amount equal to Seventy-Five Thousand Dollars ($75,000.00) (the “Holdback Amount”). The sole purpose for which the Holdback Amount may be applied is as to any amounts which Seller owes to Purchaser for post-Closing claims to the extent allowed and subject to any limitations set forth in this Agreement. For clarity, the Holdback Amount is intended as a source of payment, but not as a limitation of damages that may be claimed by Purchaser. Except as to any amounts claimed to be owed by Seller to Purchaser which amounts are specifically reflected in a lawsuit commenced against Seller within twelve (12) months after the Closing for damages based upon the post-Closing claim, Escrow Agent shall disburse the balance of the Holdback Amount to Seller immediately following the expiration of the twelve (12) month period. Prior to institution of any such lawsuit, Purchaser shall provide at least ten (10) days prior written notice to Seller, specifying the exact amount and nature of any such claim asserted by Purchaser against the Holdback Amount. Any lawsuit commenced against Seller must specifically set forth the exact amount which is claimed to be owed by Seller to Purchaser, and absent such specific amount being identified, Escrow Agent is authorized to release the entire Holdback Amount to Seller immediately following the expiration of the twelve month (12) month period post-Closing. Any portion of the Holdback Amount which Escrow Agent is entitled to retain pursuant to this Section 3.10 after the passage of the twelve (12) month period, shall continue to be held in escrow pending final and unappealable dismissal or judgment in the action or actions timely commenced by Purchaser or settled pursuant to a written agreement between Seller and Purchaser. If Purchaser obtains a final and unappealable judgment in any such action, Escrow Agent is directed to make a disbursement to Purchaser from the Holdback Amount retained in escrow in the amount of the judgment plus any interest, attorney’s fees, and costs to which it is entitled thereon upon presentation to Escrow Agent and Seller of the court order or other evidence of such final and unappealable judgment. Once all such actions are either finally or unappealably dismissed or a final and unappealable judgment is entered therein or settled pursuant to a written agreement between Seller and Purchaser, and any amount of damages due to Purchaser is paid, whether from the Holdback Amount or otherwise, Escrow Agent is directed to disburse to Seller any remaining balance of the Holdback Amount. The parties shall execute any additional escrow instructions not inconsistent with the foregoing reasonably required by Escrow Agent or either party relating to the Holdback Amount. Escrow Agent’s fees and costs for holding and disbursing the Holdback Amount shall be shared equally by Seller and Purchaser.
Indemnification Escrow (a) The Escrow Deposit Amount, or from and after the Closing the Remaining Escrow Deposit Amount, shall (subject to the terms and conditions of Article 6) serve as and be the sole and exclusive source for payment of claims for indemnification by any Purchaser Indemnitee pursuant to Article 6. The Escrow Letter of Credit, which shall be provided at the Closing by Purchaser to the Escrow Agent in respect of the Escrow Deposit Amount, shall be held by the Escrow Agent in an account (the “Indemnity Escrow Account”) in accordance with the terms and conditions of an escrow agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit G (the “Escrow Agreement”).
(b) On the date which is twelve (12) months following the Closing, the Escrow Agent shall pay and disburse to the Partnership, via a draw on the funds available under the Escrow Letter of Credit, the Initial Indemnity Release Amount calculated in accordance with Section 2.13, and the amount available to be drawn under the Escrow Letter of Credit and the aggregate principal amount of the Escrow Letter of Credit shall be reduced to reflect the foregoing draw and payment.
(c) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or in the Escrow Agreement to the contrary, in the event that the Partnership is entitled, pursuant to this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement, to funds to be drawn from the Escrow Letter of Credit and the Escrow Agent is not able to draw all or any part of such funds from the Escrow Letter of Credit after receiving a notice (formatted as a joint written instruction) directing it to draw and release such funds, whether due to the expiration of the Escrow Letter of Credit, technical draw issues or otherwise, then, and in any such event, Purchaser shall deliver to the Partnership, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, not later than three (3) business days (with time of the essence) after a written request therefor from the Partnership, the amount of funds to which the Partnership is entitled or, if less than such amount, the remaining amount available to be drawn under the Escrow Letter of Credit, and the amount available to be drawn thereafter under the Escrow Letter of Credit (if not already equal to Zero) shall be reduced by the amount of such wire transfer. Without limiting the forgoing, any inability of the Escrow Agent to draw upon the Escrow Letter of Credit for any amount that is properly payable to the Partnership from the Escrow Letter of Credit or the Indemnity Escrow Account pursuant to this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement shall not relieve the Purchaser from its obligation to have made or to make such payment to the Partnership, and the Purchaser shall effect such payment by wire transfer in accordance with the preceding sentence.
(d) If either Purchaser or the Partnership anticipates that there will be any funds remaining under the Escrow Letter of Credit as of the expiration date of the Escrow Letter of Credit (the “Escrow L/C Expiration”), then Purchaser shall use reasonable best efforts to obtain and deliver to the Escrow Agent, at least three (3) business days prior to the Escrow L/C Expiration, a replacement clean, irrevocable and unconditional standby letter of credit in the aggregate face amount equal to the amount of funds remaining under the Escrow Letter of Credit (i) in substantially the same form as the Escrow Letter of Credit or such other form as is reasonably acceptable to the Partnership and the Escrow Agent and (ii) from the then-current lender under the Escrow Letter of Credit or such other lender as is reasonably acceptable to the Partnership (the “Replacement Letter of Credit”). The Escrow Agreement shall provide that if the Escrow Agent has not received a Replacement Letter of Credit from Purchaser and written notice from the Partnership that the Replacement Letter of Credit satisfies the requirements of this Section 2.12(d) at least six (6) business days prior to the Escrow L/C Expiration, then prior to the close of business on the third (3rd) business day prior to the Escrow L/C Expiration (with time of the essence), the Escrow Agent shall draw all funds remaining under the Escrow Letter of Credit and hold such funds in the Indemnity Escrow Account for release pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Escrow Agreement (a “Full Draw Event”). Following the expiration of the Escrow Letter of Credit, all references in this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement to the Escrow Letter of Credit shall be deemed to refer to the Replacement Letter of Credit (and any subsequent replacement standby letter of credit that complies with this Section 2.12(d)), and this Section 2.12(d) shall apply to the Replacement Letter of Credit mutatis mutandis.
(e) The Parties agree that the Escrow Agreement shall treat the Escrow Letter of Credit and any funds held in the Indemnity Escrow Account as owned by the Partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
Escrow Amount (a) The Escrow Agent shall hold the Escrow Stock, Escrow Cash and USVI Tax Escrow in accordance with the terms and conditions of an escrow agreement, by and among the Parent, the Seller, and the Escrow Agent, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit 2.6 (the “Escrow Agreement”). The Escrow Stock and Escrow Cash shall remain in escrow following the Closing to cover any indemnification claims in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement and Section 11.7 hereof. The USVI Tax Escrow shall remain in escrow following the Closing to cover any indemnification claim related to USVI Exposure.
(b) The Escrow Agreement shall provide that the Escrow Stock shall be released as follows (each date of escrow release, an “Escrow Release Date”) and the value of each share of Parent Common Stock for purposes of this Section 2.6(b) equal to the Issuance Price:
(i) twenty-five percent (25%) of the Escrow Stock then remaining in escrow less a number of shares of Parent Common Stock with a value equal to the amount of any outstanding claims will be released to Seller on the nine (9) month anniversary of the Closing Date (the “First Escrow Release Date”);
(ii) thirty-three and one-third percent (33.33%) of the Escrow Stock then remaining in escrow less a number of shares of Parent Common Stock with a value equal to the amount of any outstanding claims will be released to Seller on the twelve (12) month anniversary of the Closing Date;
(iii) fifty percent (50%) of the Escrow Stock then remaining in escrow less a number of shares of Parent Common Stock with a value equal to the amount of any outstanding claims will be released to Seller on the fifteen (15) month anniversary of the Closing Date; and
(iv) any Escrow Stock then remaining in escrow less a number of shares of Parent Common Stock with a value equal to the amount of any outstanding claims will be released to Seller on the eighteen (18) month anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Final Escrow Release Date”.
Directed Share Program Indemnification (a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, each person, if any, who controls Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act and each affiliate of Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx within the meaning of Rule 405 of the Securities Act (“Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Entities”) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, without limitation, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with defending or investigating any such action or claim) (i) caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any material prepared by or with the consent of the Company for distribution to Participants in connection with the Directed Share Program or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; (ii) caused by the failure of any Participant to pay for and accept delivery of Directed Shares that the Participant agreed to purchase; or (iii) related to, arising out of, or in connection with the Directed Share Program, other than losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or expenses relating thereto) that are finally judicially determined to have resulted from the bad faith or gross negligence of Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Entities.
(b) In case any proceeding (including any governmental investigation) shall be instituted involving any Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Entity in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to Section 9(a), the Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Entity seeking indemnity, shall promptly notify the Company in writing and the Company, upon request of the Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Entity, shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Entity to represent the Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Entity and any others the Company may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the fees and disbursements of such counsel related to such proceeding. In any such proceeding, any Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Entity shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Entity unless (i) the Company shall have agreed to the retention of such counsel or (ii) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the Company and the Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Entity and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. The Company shall not, in respect of the legal expenses of the Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Entities in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Entities. Any such separate firm for the Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Entities shall be designated in writing by Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx. The Company shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the Company agrees to indemnify the Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Entities from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time a Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Entity shall have requested the Company to reimburse it for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by the second and third sentences of this paragraph, the Company agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by the Company of the aforesaid request and (ii) the Company shall not have reimbursed the Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Entity in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. The Company shall not, without the prior written consent of Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Entity is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Entity, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of the Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Entities from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding.
(c) To the extent the indemnification provided for in Section 9(a) is unavailable to a Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Entity or insufficient in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then the Company in lieu of indemnifying the Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Entity thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Entity as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Entities on the other hand from the offering of the Directed Shares or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause 9(c)(i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause 9(c)(i) above but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of the Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Entities on the other hand in connection with any statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Entities on the other hand in connection with the offering of the Directed Shares shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the net proceeds from the offering of the Directed Shares (before deducting expenses) and the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Entities for the Directed Shares, bear to the aggregate Public Offering Price of the Directed Shares. If the loss, claim, damage or liability is caused by an untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Entities on the other hand shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement or the omission or alleged omission relates to information supplied by the Company or by the Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Entities and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.
(d) The Company and the Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Entities agree that it would not be just or equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 9 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Entities were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in Section 9(c). The amount paid or payable by the Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Entities as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Entities in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 9, no Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Entity shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Directed Shares distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages that such Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Entity has otherwise been required to pay. The remedies provided for in this Section 9 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to any indemnified party at law or in equity.
(e) The indemnity and contribution provisions contained in this Section 9 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of (i) any termination of this Agreement, (ii) any investigation made by or on behalf of any Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Entity or the Company, its officers or directors or any person controlling the Company and (iii) acceptance of and payment for any of the Directed Shares.
Additional Escrow Amounts On the date of any Purchase Withdrawal, the Pass Through Trustee may re-deposit with the Depositary some or all of the amounts so withdrawn in accordance with Section 2.4 of the Deposit Agreement.
Escrow Funds To provide for the timely payment of any post-closing claims by Buyer against Seller hereunder, at Closing, Seller shall deposit an amount equal to One Hundred Fifty Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($150,000.00) (the “Escrow Funds”) which shall be withheld from the Purchase Price payable to Seller and shall be deposited for a period of one (1) year in an escrow account with the Title Company pursuant to an escrow agreement reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to Buyer and Seller (the “Post-Closing Agreement”), which escrow and Post-Closing Agreement shall be established and entered into at Closing and shall be a condition to Buyer’s obligations under this Contract. All earnings accrue to Seller and Seller may direct investment thereof. If no claims have been asserted by Buyer against Seller, or all such claims have been satisfied, within such 1-year period, the Escrow Funds deposited by Seller shall be released to Seller.
Disbursement of the Escrow Shares 3.1 The Escrow Agent shall hold the Escrow Shares during the period (the “Escrow Period”) commencing on the date hereof and (i) for 50% of the Escrow Shares, ending on the earlier of (x) six months after the date of the consummation of the Company’s initial business combination (as described in the Registration Statement, hereinafter a “Business Combination”) and (y) the date on which the closing price of the Common Stock equals or exceeds $12.50 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations and recapitalizations) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing after the Company’s initial Business Combination and (ii) for the remaining 50% of the Escrow Shares, ending six months after the date of the consummation of an initial Business Combination. The Company shall promptly provide notice of the consummation of a Business Combination to the Escrow Agent. Upon completion of the Escrow Period, the Escrow Agent shall disburse such amount of each Initial Shareholder’s Escrow Shares (and any applicable share power) to such Initial Shareholder; provided, however, that if the Escrow Agent is notified by the Company pursuant to Section 6.7 hereof that the Company is being liquidated at any time during the Escrow Period, then the Escrow Agent shall promptly destroy the certificates representing the Escrow Shares; provided further, however, that if, within six months after the Company consummates an initial Business Combination, the Company (or the surviving entity) subsequently consummates a liquidation, merger, stock exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of the shareholders of such entity having the right to exchange their shares of Common Stock for cash, securities or other property, then the Escrow Agent will, upon receipt of a notice executed by the Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer or other authorized officer of the Company, in form reasonably acceptable to the Escrow Agent, certifying that such transaction is then being consummated or such conditions have been achieved, as applicable, release the Escrow Shares to the Initial Shareholders. The Escrow Agent shall have no further duties hereunder after the disbursement or destruction of the Escrow Shares in accordance with this Section 3.1.
3.2 Notwithstanding Section 3.1, if the Underwriters do not exercise their over-allotment option to purchase an additional 750,000 Units of the Company in full within 45 days of the date of the Prospectus (as described in the Underwriting Agreement), the Initial Shareholders agree that the Escrow Agent shall return to the Company for cancellation, at no cost, the number of Escrow Shares held by the Initial Shareholders listed on Exhibit B determined by multiplying (a) the product of (i) 187,500 multiplied by (ii) a fraction, (x) the numerator of which is the number of Escrow Shares held by each such holder, and (y) the denominator of which is the total number of Escrow Shares, by (b) a fraction, (i) the numerator of which is 750,000 minus the number of shares of Common Stock purchased by the Underwriters upon the exercise of their over-allotment option, and (ii) the denominator of which is 750,000. The Company shall promptly provide notice to the Escrow Agent of the expiration or termination of the Underwriters’ over-allotment option and the number of Units, if any, purchased by the Underwriters in connection with their exercise thereof.
Purchaser Indemnification 3.4.1 Purchaser shall indemnify, hold harmless and, if requested by a Seller (in such Seller’s sole discretion), defend (with counsel reasonably approved by such Seller) such Seller, together with such Seller’s affiliates, parent and subsidiary entities, successors, assigns, partners, managers, members, employees, officers, directors, trustees, shareholders, counsel, representatives, agents, Property Manager, Regional Property Manager, and AIMCO (collectively, including such Seller, “Seller’s Indemnified Parties”), from and against any and all damages, mechanics’ liens, materialmen’s liens, liabilities, penalties, interest, losses, demands, actions, causes of action, claims, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees, including the cost of in-house counsel and appeals) (collectively, “Losses”) arising from or related to Purchaser’s or its Consultants’ entry onto such Seller’s Property, and any Inspections or other acts by Purchaser or Purchaser’s Consultants with respect to such Property during the Feasibility Period or otherwise; provided, however, such indemnity shall not cover any Loss to the extent arising from Seller’s Indemnified Parties’ negligence or willful misconduct or any preexisting latent physical or environmental conditions discovered by Purchaser in connection with its investigations as long as Purchaser immediately ceases its investigations upon discovering such latent condition and takes reasonable steps not to exacerbate such condition.
3.4.2 Notwithstanding anything in this Contract to the contrary, Purchaser shall not be permitted to perform any invasive tests on any Property without Sellers’ Representative’s prior written consent, which consent may be withheld in Sellers’ Representative’s sole discretion. Further, Sellers’ Representative shall have the right, without limitation, to disapprove any and all entries, surveys, tests (including, without limitation, a Phase II environmental study of its Property), investigations and other matters that in such Sellers’ Representative’s reasonable judgment could result in any injury to its Property or breach of any contract, or expose the applicable Seller to any Losses or violation of applicable law, or otherwise adversely affect such Property or such Seller’s interest therein; provided, however, each Seller hereby expressly consents to Purchaser's performance of a Phase I environmental study of the applicable Property (to be conducted by an environmental engineer reasonably acceptable to Seller's Representative) and an ACM (asbestos containing material) study (to be conducted by an environmental engineer reasonably acceptable to Seller's Representative) in connection therewith, but only to the extent customarily performed in connection with a Phase I environmental study; and, provided, further, however, if the Phase I for any Property concludes that a Phase II is recommended, but the applicable Seller refuses permission for such Phase II (in such Seller's sole and absolute discretion), Purchaser may terminate this Contract pursuant to Section 3.2 prior to the expiration of the Feasibility Period. Purchaser shall use reasonable efforts to minimize disruption to Tenants in connection with Purchaser’s or its Consultants’ activities pursuant to this Section. No consent by Sellers’ Representative to any such activity shall be deemed to constitute a waiver by the applicable Seller or assumption of liability or risk by such Seller. Purchaser hereby agrees to restore, at Purchaser’s sole cost and expense, each Property substantially to the same condition existing immediately prior to Purchaser’s exercise of its rights pursuant to this Article III. Purchaser shall maintain and cause its third party consultants to maintain (a) casualty insurance and commercial general liability insurance with coverages of not less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00) for injury or death to any one person and Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000.00) for injury or death to more than one person and One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00) with respect to property damage, and (b) worker’s compensation insurance for all of their respective employees in accordance with the law of the state(s) or commonwealth(s) in which the Properties are located. Purchaser shall deliver proof of the insurance coverage required pursuant to this Section 3.4.2 to Sellers’ Representative (in the form of a certificate of insurance) prior to Purchaser’s or Purchaser’s Consultants’ entry onto any of the Properties.
