The Sellers shall not be entitled to seek indemnification under this Section 9.02(b) unless and until the aggregate amount of Losses that would otherwise be payable under this Section 9.02(b) exceeds on a cumulative basis nine hundred one thousand dollars ($901,000), in which case the Sellers shall be entitled to indemnification only for the excess over such amount; and shall be limited in the aggregate to an amount equal to nine million ten thousand dollars ($9,010,000), except in the case of indemnification arising from a breach of Buyer’s payment obligations under Section 1.02(b).

(c) Survival Period. Except as provided in Section 9.01 with respect to covenants to be performed after the Closing, the Buyer shall not be liable for any claim for indemnification under Section 9.02(b) unless written notice specifying in reasonable detail the nature of the claim for indemnification is delivered by the Person seeking indemnification to the Buyer prior to the Survival Period Termination Date.

(d) Third Party Claims. Promptly after the assertion by any third party of any claim (a “Third Party Claim”) against any Person entitled to indemnification under this Section 9.02 (the “Indemnitee”) that results or may result in the incurrence by such Indemnitee of any Loss for which such Indemnitee would be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement, such Indemnitee shall promptly notify in writing the parties from whom such indemnification could be sought (the “Indemnitors”) of such Third Party Claim. The Indemnitor may, at its option, assume the defense of the Indemnitee against such Third Party Claim (including, without limitation, the employment of counsel and the payment of expenses). Each Indemnitee shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such Third Party Claim and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall not be an expense of the Indemnitor unless (i) the Indemnitor shall have failed, within a reasonable time after having been notified in writing by the Indemnitee of the existence of such Third Party Claim as provided in the preceding sentence, to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim (except if the Indemnitor has expressly denied in writing responsibility for such Third Party Claim) or (ii) the employment of such counsel has been specifically authorized by the Indemnitor. An Indemnitor shall have no authority to settle any Third Party Claim without approval of the Indemnitee (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), unless the settlement requires nothing other than the payment of money by Indemnitor.

(e) Calculation of Losses. The amount of any Loss shall be calculated (i) net of any Tax Benefit realized by the Indemnitee or any of its Affiliates as a result of such Loss and (ii) net of any insurance proceeds or other indemnification or contribution proceeds (net of reasonable direct collection expenses) received by the Indemnitee or any of its Affiliates with respect to such Loss. If the Indemnitee or any of its Affiliates receives a Tax Benefit as a result of an indemnification payment made hereunder and the amount of such Tax Benefit was not included in the calculation of the Loss, the Indemnitee shall promptly pay to the Indemnitor the amount of such Tax Benefit at such time or times as and to the extent that such Tax Benefit is realized. For purposes hereof, “Tax Benefit” shall mean any refund of Taxes paid or reduction in the amount of Taxes that otherwise would have been paid, in each case computed at the highest federal, state and local marginal tax rates. As a condition to obtaining indemnification under this Agreement, the Buyer shall, and shall cause the Company to, seek full recovery under all insurance policies and other indemnification and contribution arrangements covering any Loss to the same extent as they would if such Loss were not subject to indemnification hereunder, and the Buyer shall not, and shall not permit the Company to, terminate or cancel any insurance policies covering the Company in effect for the period prior to the Closing unless the Buyer replaces such insurance policies with new insurance policies that provide comparable or better coverage. In the event that an insurance or other recovery is received by the Buyer, the Company or any of their Affiliates with respect to any Loss for which any such Person has been indemnified hereunder and the amount of such insurance or other recovery was not included in the calculation of the Loss, then a refund equal to the aggregate amount of the recovery (net of reasonable direct collection expenses) shall be made promptly to the Company. The Indemnitor shall be subrogated to all rights of any Indemnitee against any third party with respect to Losses that have been paid by the Indemnitor pursuant an indemnification claim hereunder (including, without limitation, rights under insurance policies). Without limiting the generality of any other provision hereof, each such Indemnitee and Indemnitor shall duly execute upon request all instruments reasonably necessary to evidence and perfect the subrogation rights described above.

9.03 Limitation of Loss.

(a) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, there shall be no recovery for any Loss or alleged Loss by the Buyer to the extent such item relates to or arises from a liability to the extent reflected as a liability of the Company (including when booked as a non-specific provision or reserve) in the financial statements described in Section 3.04 (Financial Statements). Further, any later cancellation or reversal of provisions or reserves shall be set off against any amount of Loss.

(b) Each Indemnitee shall use reasonable efforts to mitigate its Losses upon and after becoming aware of any event or condition that would reasonably be expected to give rise to any Losses that are indemnifiable hereunder.

(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, except with respect to claims based upon fraud, neither the Company nor any Seller shall be liable for, and there shall be no remedy for any Losses of the Buyer with respect to, (i) any misrepresentation or inaccuracy in, or breach of, any representations or warranties of the Company or any Seller set forth herein or in any Schedule or Exhibit hereto or any certificate delivered hereunder, (ii) any breach of or failure in performance prior to Closing of any covenant or agreement to be performed by the Company or any Seller or in any Schedule or Exhibit hereto or any certificate delivered hereunder or (iii) any other Losses arising hereunder.

9.04 Disclosure Generally. If and to the extent any information required to be furnished in any Schedule or Updated Schedule is contained in this Agreement or in any Schedule or Updated Schedule attached hereto, such information shall be deemed to be included in all Schedules and Updated Schedules in which the information is required to be included to the extent, and only to the extent, the applicability of such disclosure to such Schedules or Updated Schedules is reasonably apparent on its face. The inclusion of any information in any Schedule or Updated Schedule attached hereto shall not be deemed to be an admission or acknowledgment by the Sellers or the Company that in and of itself, such information is material to, or outside the ordinary course of the business of, the Company or is a violation or breach of any Law or contract or the infringement or misuse of any Intellectual Property.

9.05 Acknowledgment by the Buyer. The Buyer acknowledges that (a) it has conducted to its satisfaction an independent investigation and verification of the financial condition, results of operations, assets, liabilities, obligations, properties and projected operations of the Company, (b) in making its determination to proceed with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Buyer has relied solely on the results of its own independent investigation and verification and the representations and warranties of the Sellers expressly and specifically set forth in this Agreement (including the Schedules and Updated Schedules attached hereto), (c) such representations and warranties supersede, replace and nullify in every respect the information set forth in any other document, material or statement, whether written or oral, made available to the Buyer (including, without limitation, the Management Presentation of the Company (the “Management Presentation”)), and (d) the Buyer shall be deemed to have not

relied on any information contained in such other document, material or statement for any purpose whatsoever (including, without limitation, as a promise, projection, guaranty, representation, warranty or covenant). The representations and warranties of the Sellers expressly and specifically set forth in this Agreement constitute the sole and exclusive representations and warranties of the Sellers to the Buyer in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, and the Buyer understands, acknowledges and agrees that all other representations and warranties of any kind or nature expressed or implied (including, without limitation, any relating to the future or historical financial condition, results of operations, assets or liabilities of the Company contained in the Management Presentation) are specifically disclaimed by the Sellers. In connection with the Buyer’s investigation of the Company, the Buyer has received certain projections (including, without limitation, projected statements of operating revenues and income from operations of the Company and certain business plan information), and the Buyer acknowledges that there are uncertainties inherent in attempting to make such estimates, projections and other forecasts and plans, that the Buyer is familiar with such uncertainties and that the Buyer is taking full responsibility for making its own evaluation of the adequacy and accuracy of all estimates, projections and other forecasts and plans so furnished to it (including, without limitation, the reasonableness of the assumptions underlying such estimates, projections and forecasts). Accordingly, the Buyer acknowledges that the Sellers are not making any representation or warranty with respect to such estimates, projections and other forecasts and plans (including, without limitation, the reasonableness of the assumptions underlying such estimates, projections and forecasts).

9.06 Further Assurances. From time to time, as and when requested by any party hereto and at such party’s expense, any other party shall execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, all such documents and instruments and shall take, or cause to be taken, all such further or other actions as such other party may reasonably deem necessary to evidence and effectuate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

In furtherance of the foregoing, the Guarantor acknowledges that its liability under this ARTICLE X shall extend to the Obligations of the Buyer and that the Sellers, may, in their sole discretion, bring and prosecute a separate action or actions against the Guarantor for the full payment and performance of such Obligations, regardless of whether (i) an action is brought against the Buyer or any other Person, (ii) the Buyer or any other Person is joined in any such action or actions or (iii) the Buyer or any other Person was primarily responsible for causing the Obligations of the Buyer or the Guarantor hereunder.

10.02 Changes in Obligations; Certain Waivers. The Sellers may from time to time and at any time, without notice to or further consent of the Guarantor, extend the time of

payment, performance or discharge of any Obligations of the Buyer, and may also make any agreement with the Buyer for the payment, compromise, extension, discharge, renewal or release thereof, in whole or in part, or for any modification of the terms thereof or of any agreement between the Sellers and the Buyer without in any way impairing or affecting such Obligations. The Obligations of the Buyer shall not be released or discharged, in whole or in part, or otherwise affected by (i) the existence of any claim, set-off or other right which the Guarantor may have at any time against the Buyer, whether in connection with such Obligations or otherwise; (ii) any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting the Buyer; (iii) the failure of the Sellers to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Buyer; (iv) any change in the existence, structure or ownership of the Buyer; (v) the adequacy of any other means the Sellers may have of obtaining payment, performance or discharge of any of the Buyer’s Obligations; or (vi) any change in the time, place or manner of payment, performance or discharge of any of the Buyer’s Obligations or any rescission, waiver, compromise, consolidation or other amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement. To the fullest extent permitted by Law, the Guarantor hereby expressly waives any and all rights or defenses arising by reason of any Law which would otherwise require any election of remedies by the Sellers.

The Guarantor acknowledges that it shall receive substantial direct and indirect benefits from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and that the waivers set forth in this ARTICLE X are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.

10.03 Payments to be held in Trust. The Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agrees, unless and until all of the Buyer’s Obligations shall have been irrevocably paid in full in cash or performed in full, not to exercise any rights that it may now have or hereafter acquire against the Buyer that arise from the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of the Guarantor’s obligations under or in respect of this Guaranty and any right to participate in any claim or remedy of the Sellers against the Buyer, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity or under contract, statute or common law (including, without limitation, the right to take or receive from the Buyer, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by setoff or in any other manner, payment or security on account of such claim, remedy or right). If any amount shall be paid to the Guarantor in violation of the immediately preceding sentence at any time prior to the irrevocable payment in full in cash of the Obligations of the Buyer, such amount shall be received and held in trust for the benefit of the Sellers, shall be segregated from other property and funds of the Guarantor and shall forthwith be paid or delivered to the Sellers in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement or assignment) to be credited and applied to such Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, whether matured or unmatured. The Guarantor shall not institute, and shall cause its respective Affiliates not to institute, any proceedings asserting and shall not in any case assert that this ARTICLE X is illegal, invalid or unenforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium or other similar Laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, and general equitable principles (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

10.04 Nature of Guaranty. The Sellers shall not be obligated to file any claim relating to the Obligations of the Buyer in the event that the Buyer becomes subject to a reorganization, bankruptcy or similar proceeding, and the failure of the Sellers to so file shall not affect the Guarantor’s obligations under this ARTICLE X. In the event that any payment to the Sellers in respect of an Obligation of the Buyer is rescinded or must otherwise be returned, and is returned, to the Buyer in connection with any such proceeding, the Guarantor shall remain liable hereunder with respect to such Obligations as if such payment had not been made. This is an unconditional guaranty of payment and not merely of collectability.

10.05 Representations and Warranties.

This Agreement and the documents referred to herein (including, without limitation, the Confidentiality Agreement) contain the complete agreement between the parties hereto and supersede any prior understandings, agreements or representations by or between the parties, written or oral, which may have related to the subject matter hereof in any way.

12.09 Counterparts; Electronic Delivery. This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, any one of which need not contain the signatures of more than one party, but all such counterparts taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument. This Agreement and any signed agreement or instrument entered into in connection with this Agreement, and any amendments hereto or thereto, to the extent delivered by means of a facsimile machine, electronic mail or other electronic means readily available to each of the parties hereto (any such delivery, an “Electronic Delivery”), shall be treated in all manner and respects as an original agreement or instrument and shall be considered to have the same binding legal effect as if it were the original signed version thereof delivered in person. At the request of any party hereto or to any such other agreement or instrument, each other party hereto or thereto shall re-execute original forms thereof and deliver them to all other parties. No party hereto or to any such other agreement or instrument shall raise the use of Electronic Delivery to deliver a signature or the fact that any signature or agreement or instrument was transmitted or communicated through the use of Electronic Delivery as a defense to the formation of a contract, and each such party forever waives any such defense, except to the extent such defense related to lack of authenticity.

12.10 Governing Law. All matters relating to the interpretation, construction, validity and enforcement of this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the domestic Laws of the State of New York without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of Laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York.

12.11 Consent to Jurisdiction. Each of the parties to this Agreement hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the jurisdiction of any court of the State of New York sitting in the Borough of Manhattan or any Federal court of the United States of America sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment relating thereto, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding shall be heard and determined in such State of New York court or, to the extent permitted by Law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties to this Agreement agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law.

12.12 Waiver of Jury Trial. Each party to this Agreement hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, any right to trial by jury of any claim, demand, action or cause of action arising under this Agreement or in any way connected with or related or incidental to the dealings of the parties hereto in respect of this Agreement or any of the transactions related hereto, in each case whether now existing or hereafter arising, and whether in contract, tort, equity or otherwise. In addition, each of the parties to this Agreement agrees and consents that any such claim, demand, action, cause of action shall be decided by court trial without a jury and that the parties to this Agreement may file an original counterpart of a copy of this Agreement with any court as written evidence of the consent of the parties hereto to the waiver of their right to trial by jury.

12.13 Specific Performance. Each of the parties to this Agreement agrees that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that the parties hereto do not perform the provisions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, failing to take such actions as are required of it hereunder to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breach such provisions. Each of the parties to this Agreement acknowledges and agrees that the parties hereto shall be entitled to an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, including, without limitation, to cause the Buyer to consummate the transaction contemplated hereby on the terms and subject to the conditions in this Agreement, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. Each of the parties to this Agreement agrees that it shall not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief on the basis that the other parties hereto have an adequate remedy at law or an award of specific performance is not an appropriate

remedy for any reason at law or equity. Any party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such injunction or other Order.
