(d) For purposes of this Agreement, the amount of any Taxes based on or measured by income or receipts of Seller and its Affiliates in respect of a Straddle Period which relate to the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be determined based on an interim closing of the books of the relevant entity as of the close of business on the Closing Date (and for such purpose, the taxable period of any partnership or other pass-through entity in which Seller holds a beneficial interest shall be deemed to terminate at such time), and the amount of any other Taxes of Seller for a Straddle Period which relate to the Pre-Closing Tax Period (such as property Taxes) shall be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire taxable period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the Pre-Closing Tax Period and the denominator of which is the number of days in such Straddle Period.

(c) In order for any Indemnified Party to be entitled to any indemnification pursuant to this Article VIII, the Indemnified Party shall notify the Indemnifying Party in writing within ten (10) Business Days of such Indemnifying Party becoming aware of the event giving rise to such Indemnified Party’s claim for indemnification, specifying in reasonable detail the basis of such claim; provided, however, that failure to give such notification shall not affect the indemnification provided hereunder except to the extent the Indemnifying Party shall have been actually prejudiced as a result of such failure.  The Indemnified Party shall thereupon give the Indemnifying Party reasonable access to the books, records and assets of the Indemnified Party which evidence or support such claim or the act, omission or occurrence giving rise to such claim and the right, upon prior notice during normal business hours, to interview any Representative of such Indemnified Party, including outside legal counsel, accountants and financial advisors of the Indemnified Party related thereto.  If the Indemnifying Party disputes its liability with respect to any such claim, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall proceed to negotiate a resolution of such dispute for a period of thirty (30) days.  If after the conclusion of such thirty (30) day period the dispute has not been resolved, either the Indemnifying Party or Indemnified Party may seek resolution such dispute shall be resolved through the procedures set forth in Section 10.12 of this Agreement.  

(d) If an Indemnified Party becomes aware of a third party action that the Indemnified Party believes, in good faith, may result in a claim with respect to a matter referred to in Sections 8.2(c) or 8.3(c), the Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Indemnifying Party of such action.  The Indemnifying Party shall conduct the defense of such action and shall, to the extent reasonably requested by the Indemnified Party from time to time, give updates as to the status of such action.  The Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in any such defense at its sole cost and expense.  The Indemnifying Party may agree to any settlement or compromise of any such third party action in its sole discretion, so long as such settlement or compromise (i) does not obligate any Indemnified Party to take or refrain from taking any action

- 40 -

and (ii) provides for a complete release of the Indemnified Party by such third party.  Any such settlement or compromise by the Indemnifying Party shall represent the agreement of the Indemnifying Party that the Losses incurred in connection therewith shall be indemnifiable hereunder.

(e) The procedures for providing the Escrow Agent notice of any claims against the Holdback Amount by the Indemnified Parties, the resolution of any disputes in connection with the Holdback Amount, and the release of any portion of the Holdback Amount to Seller or the Buyer Indemnified Parties shall be addressed in the Escrow Agreement.

Section 8.5 Limitations on Indemnification.  

(a)Except with respect to Losses relating to breaches of the representations and warranties in Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.13, 4.1, 4.2, 4.5 or claims pursuant to Sections 8.2(b), 8.2(c) or 8.3(b), Seller shall have no obligation to indemnify the Buyer Indemnified Parties against Losses pursuant to Section 8.2, and Buyer shall have no obligation to indemnify the Seller Indemnified Parties against Losses pursuant to Section 8.3, unless and until the aggregate of all such Losses suffered or incurred by Buyer Indemnified Parties or Seller Indemnified Parties, as applicable, for which indemnification is sought exceeds US$100,000 (the “Basket Amount”) (in which event the Buyer Indemnified Parties or Seller Indemnified Parties, as applicable, shall be entitled to indemnification for the full amount including the Basket Amount, subject to the other limitations set forth in this Article VIII).

(b)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Seller shall be obligated to indemnify the Buyer Indemnified Parties against Losses under Section 8.2 only up to the Holdback Amount (less any fees deducted by the Escrow Agent from the Holdback Amount pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement), other than Losses based on a breach of the representations and warranties made in Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.13, 3.14 and 3.15 or Losses under Section 8.2(b) or 8.2(c) which Losses in the aggregate shall be capped at the Purchase Price (which, for the avoidance of doubt, is inclusive of the Holdback Amount), and in any case of fraud or intentional misrepresentation which Losses shall not be capped.

(c)No claim for indemnification pursuant to this Article VIII may or shall be made unless written notice pursuant to Section 8.4(a) is delivered to the Indemnifying Party and the Escrow Agent in accordance with the Escrow Agreement.

(d)Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, if Seller is obligated to indemnify or reimburse any Buyer Indemnified Party for any indemnification claim in accordance with this Article VIII, the Buyer Indemnified Parties shall in all cases first exhaust the Holdback Amount in full before seeking recovery directly from Seller.

(e)Buyer acknowledges, on behalf of itself and on behalf of the other Buyer Indemnified Parties, that their sole and exclusive remedy with respect to all claims for breach of this Agreement, other than claims for fraud or intentional misrepresentation or a suit seeking specific performance or any other equitable remedy to require a party hereto to perform its

- 41 -

obligations under this Agreement, shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article VIII.  In furtherance of the foregoing, Buyer hereby waives, on behalf of itself and each of the other Buyer Indemnified Parties, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law, any and all rights, claims and causes of action it may have against Seller for any breach of this Agreement (except pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article VIII), other than with respect to claims for fraud or intentional misrepresentation or a suit seeking specific performance or any other equitable remedy to require a party hereto to perform its obligations under this Agreement.

(f)Upon payment in full of any claim or judgment pursuant to Section 8.4, the Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment to the rights of the Indemnified Party against any Person (other than the Buyer Indemnified Parties) with respect to the subject matter of such claim or judgment.  The Indemnified Parties shall assign or otherwise reasonably cooperate with the Indemnifying Parties, at the cost and expense of the Indemnifying Parties, to pursue any claims against, or otherwise recover amounts from, any Person liable or responsible for any Losses for which indemnification has been received pursuant to this Agreement.

Section 8.6 Calculation and Mitigation of Damages.

Each party shall take all commercially reasonable steps to mitigate any of its Losses, including by seeking recovery under insurance policies or other collateral sources; provided that the Indemnified Party shall have no obligation to (i) seek recovery under such insurance policies or other collateral sources prior to seeking recovery from the Indemnifying Party or (ii) to bring any lawsuit or claim against any insurer, including without limitation in connection with any dispute regarding coverage, policy limits or the determination of losses.  The amount of any Losses for which indemnification is provided under this Article VIII shall be net of any amounts recovered by such Indemnified Party under insurance policies or other collateral sources with respect to such Losses, net of deductibles paid.  

Section 8.7 Tax Treatment of Indemnification Payments.  

Buyer and Seller agree to treat any indemnification payments received pursuant to this Agreement for all Tax purposes as an adjustment to the Purchase Price to the extent permitted by applicable Law.

(a) by either Seller or Buyer if there has been a breach or failure to perform by the other party of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement set forth in this Agreement, which breach or failure to perform (1) in the case of a breach or failure to perform by Seller, would give rise to the failure of a condition set forth in Section 5.1, and (2) in the case of a breach or failure to perform by Buyer, would give rise to the failure of a condition set forth in Section 5.2 (and in each case such breach is not reasonably capable of being cured or such condition is not reasonably capable of being satisfied within fifteen (15) Business Days after the receipt of notice thereof by the defaulting party from the non-defaulting party, it being understood and agreed that this Agreement may not be terminated pursuant to this Section 9.1(a)(i) during, or following, such period of fifteen (15) Business Days if such breach is cured during such period); provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement is only available to a party that is not in material breach of this Agreement at such time;
