Section 2.4. Purchase Price Adjustment.
(a)
(i) Within sixty (60) days
after the Closing Date, Buyer shall cause its independent certified public
accountants (“Buyer’s Accountants”) to prepare and deliver to Seller a
statement, the (“Buyer’s Price Adjustment Statement”) setting forth the

count and deliver to Seller a certificate that the Buyer’s Price Adjustment
Statement was prepared in accordance with the Accounting Principles. Buyer shall cause Buyer’s Accountants to

Accountants. If Buyer’s Accountants
fail to deliver the Buyer’s Price Adjustment Statement to Seller within sixty
(60) days after the Closing Date the Net Inventory shall be deemed to be an
amount equal to $771,179, and this amount shall be final and binding upon the
parties.

If Seller fails to deliver the Seller’s Price Adjustment Statement to Buyer within sixty (60) days after receipt of the Buyer’s Price Adjustment Statement, the Buyer’s Price Adjustment Statement shall be final and binding upon the parties.

Buyer and Seller acknowledge and agree that the provisions of Sections 12.12 and 12.13 shall not apply to disputes described in this Section 2.4(a).
(b) If the final Price Adjustment Statement discloses a positive net change to the specific items included therein, then the amount of such positive net change (the "Positive Purchase Price Adjustment") shall be added to the Purchase Price. If the Price Adjustment Statement discloses a negative net change to the specific items included therein then the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the amount of such negative net change (the "Negative Purchase Price Adjustment").

Section 2.5. Allocation of Purchase Price.
The parties agree that the Purchase Price shall be allocated as specified in Schedule 2.5 hereto. In the event of any adjustment in the Purchase Price pursuant to Section 2.4, the amount of any such adjustment due to an increase or decrease in value of one of the categories as to which the Purchase Price has been allocated shall be allocated to or deducted from each such category of assets or liabilities in an amount equal to the actual increase or decrease occurring with respect to that particular category of asset or liability. Buyer and Seller agree to (i) be bound by the allocation specified in Schedule 2.5 (the “Allocation”), (ii) act in accordance with the Allocation in the preparation of financial statements and filing of all Tax returns (including, without limitation, filing Form 8594 with its federal income Tax return for the taxable year that includes the date of the Closing) and (iii) take no position inconsistent with the Allocation for all Tax purposes.
Section 2.6. Assumption of Liabilities.
Buyer hereby agrees to assume the Assumed Liabilities as of the Closing Date. Buyer shall perform and discharge all obligations under the Assumed Liabilities (including, without limitation, all Assumed Agreements) as and when such obligations become due and shall promptly reimburse Seller for the performance by Seller (or its Affiliates) of any such obligation the performance of which by Buyer is not accepted by the obligee in the exercise of such obligee's lawful rights. After the Closing, Buyer shall pay all Assumed Liabilities as and when such obligations become due.
Section 2.7. Instruments of Transfer.
(a) At the Closing, Buyer will deliver to Seller an agreement in form reasonably acceptable to Seller whereby Buyer assumes Seller's obligations with respect to Assumed Agreements, to the extent such obligations relate to activities under the Assumed Agreements occurring after the Closing Date. Except as specifically provided in this Agreement, Buyer shall not assume or be obligated to pay, perform or otherwise discharge any Excluded Liabilities. Seller will deliver to Buyer at the Closing such bills of sale, assignments and other instruments of assumption and transfer, as Buyer shall reasonably request to effectively convey and transfer all of the Assets to be sold, assigned, transferred, or delivered hereunder; provided, however, with respect to the Trademarks, Seller will deliver to Buyer at Closing a general trademark assignment of the worldwide rights to the Trademarks, and Buyer will create, for post-Closing execution, the individual country assignments and associated documents to effect change of title to the Trademarks in a particular country. All risk of loss with respect to the Assets (whether or not covered by insurance) shall be on the Seller up to the time of Closing, whereupon such risk of loss shall pass to Buyer.
(b) Buyer shall deliver to Seller at the Closing such instruments of assumption, in form reasonably satisfactory to Seller, as shall be effective to assure that Buyer will perform or reimburse Seller for the performance of the obligations described in Section 2.6.
Section 2.8. Sales and Transfer Taxes and Fees.
All applicable sales, transfer, documentary, use, filing, recording and other taxes and fees that may be levied on the sale, assignment, transfer or delivery of the Assets to be sold and transferred as provided herein shall be borne by Buyer. Seller shall be responsible for federal and state taxes imposed for gains, if any, on the sale of Assets.
Section 2.9. Non-Assignability of Assets.
Nothing in this Agreement or any document delivered hereto shall be deemed to constitute or require an assignment or an attempt to assign any contract if the attempted assignment thereof, without the consent of the other party thereto, would constitute a breach thereof or materially adversely affect the rights of Seller and its assignee thereunder. If, after Seller and Buyer shall have used all reasonable efforts to obtain such consents from any such Persons with respect to the assignment of one or more contracts that the parties mutually agree should be an Assumed Agreement, any such consent shall not have been obtained at or prior to the Closing, or the attempted assignment of such contract or agreement without such consent at the Closing would have a materially adverse effect on such rights or Buyer would not in fact receive such rights, Seller will cooperate with Buyer, at Buyer's expense in any reasonable arrangement designed to provide for Buyer the benefits thereunder.

(b) On and after the Closing Date, Seller will, upon reasonable and adequate prior notice, afford promptly to Buyer and its agents reasonable access to its books of account, financial and other records (including, without limitation, accountant’s work papers), information, employees and auditors to the extent necessary or useful to Buyer in connection with any audit, investigation, dispute or litigation or any other reasonable business purpose relating to the Business; provided that any such access by Buyer shall not unreasonably interfere with the conduct of the business of Seller.

Buyer agrees that:
Prior to the Closing Date and after any termination of this Agreement, Buyer will hold, and will use its reasonable efforts to cause its respective affiliates, officers, directors, employees, accountants, counsel, consultants, advisors and agents to hold, in confidence, unless compelled to disclose by judicial or administrative process or by other requirements of law, all confidential documents and information concerning the Business or Seller furnished to Buyer or Buyer’s Representatives (as defined in Section 5.2) in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, except to the extent such information can be shown to have been (i) previously known on a nonconfidential basis by Buyer, (ii) in the public domain through no fault of Buyer or (iii) later lawfully acquired by Buyer from sources other than Seller; provided that Buyer may disclose such information to Buyer’s Representatives in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement so long as Buyer’s Representatives are informed by Buyer of the confidential nature of such information and are directed by Buyer to treat such information confidentially. Buyer shall be responsible for any failure to treat such information confidentially by Buyer’s Representatives. The obligation of Buyer to hold any information in confidence shall be satisfied if it exercises the same care with respect to such information as it would to preserve the confidentiality of its own similar information. If this Agreement is terminated, Buyer will, and will use its reasonable efforts to cause Buyer’s Representatives to, destroy or deliver to Seller, upon request, all documents and other materials, and all copies thereof, obtained by Buyer or on Buyer’s behalf from Seller in connection with this Agreement that are subject to such confidence.
On and after the Closing Date, Buyer will afford promptly to Seller and its counsel, financial advisors, auditors and other authorized representatives (collectively, “Seller’s Representatives”) reasonable access to its properties, books, records, employees and auditors to the extent necessary to permit Seller to determine any matter relating to its rights and obligations hereunder or to any period ending on or before the Closing Date; provided that any such access shall not unreasonably interfere with the conduct of the business of Buyer. Seller will hold, and will use its reasonable efforts to cause Seller’s Representatives to hold, in confidence, unless compelled to disclose by judicial or administrative process or by other requirements of law, all confidential documents and information concerning Buyer or the Business provided to it pursuant to this Section.
Section 6.3. Trademarks; Tradenames.

ARTICLE VII: COVENANTS OF BUYER AND SELLER
Buyer and Seller agree that:
Each of the parties will use reasonable efforts to take all action and to do all things necessary, proper or advisable in order to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including satisfaction, but not waiver, of the closing conditions hereto).
Section 7.2. Further Assurances.
(a) Seller and Buyer shall from time to time, and without further consideration, promptly execute and deliver such other documents, certificates, agreements and other writings and to take such other actions as may be necessary or desirable in order to consummate or implement expeditiously the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and to vest in Buyer good title to the Assets. All out-of pocket expenses involved in honoring such requests shall promptly be reimbursed by the requesting party to the other.
(b) Within six (6) months after the Closing, Buyer shall, at its expense, prepare and submit to Seller for signature the documentation necessary to record the transfer of the Trademarks.

(c) Seller and Buyer shall cooperate with one another (i) in determining whether any action by or in respect of, or filing with, any governmental body, agency, official or authority is required, or any actions, consents, approvals or waivers are required to be obtained from parties to any material contracts, in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (ii) in taking such actions or making any such filings, furnishing information required in connection therewith and timely seeking to obtain any such actions, consents, approvals or waivers.
Section 7.3. Public Announcements.
No party to this Agreement shall originate any publicity, news release or other public announcement, written or oral, whether relating to this Agreement or the existence of any arrangement between the parties, without the prior written consent of the other party whether named in such publicity, news release or other public announcement or not, except where such publicity, news release or other public announcement is required by law or the rules of any securities exchange; provided that in such event, the party issuing same shall still be required to consult with the other party whether named in such publicity, news release or public announcement or not, a reasonable time prior to its release to allow the other party to comment thereon and, after its release, shall provide the other party with a copy thereof. If Buyer, based on the advice of its counsel, determines that this Agreement, or any of the other documents executed in connection herewith, must be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), then Buyer, prior to making any such filing, shall provide Seller and its counsel with a redacted version of this Agreement (or any other related documents) which it intends to file, and will give due consideration to any comments provided by Seller or its counsel and use reasonable efforts to ensure the confidential treatment by the SEC of those sections specified by Seller or its counsel. Buyer agrees to use reasonable efforts to comply with Seller’s reasonable requests to redact certain parts of this Agreement in connection with any public filing, including, without limitation, the names of all employees in Exhibits D, F and G and the Severance Pay Plan Benefit Formula (Exhibit E) in its entirety.
As of the Closing Date, the coverage under all insurance policies related to the Business shall continue in force only for the benefit of Seller and its Affiliates, and not for the benefit of Buyer or the Business. As of the Closing Date, Buyer agrees to arrange for its own insurance policies with respect to the Business covering all periods and agrees not to seek, through any means, to benefit from any of Seller's or its Affiliates' insurance policies which may provide coverage for claims relating in any way to the Business on or prior to the Closing Date.
Section 7.5. Payments from Third Parties.
In the event that, on or after the Closing Date, either party shall receive any payments or other funds due to the other pursuant to the terms hereof or otherwise, then the party receiving such funds shall promptly forward such funds to the proper party.
ARTICLE VIII: EMPLOYEE MATTERS
Within the 20-day period after the date of this Agreement, Buyer will have the option of interviewing and making an offer of generally Comparable Employment (as defined below) in writing to those Employees listed on Exhibit D hereto (each, a “Selected Employee”). While Seller will cooperate with Buyer to assist Buyer to hire and retain the services of all Selected Employees, Buyer acknowledges and agrees that the Selected Employee has the final decision whether to transfer with the Business and the failure of one or more Selected Employee(s) to accept an offer of employment from Buyer shall not be deemed to be a Material Adverse Event. Any Selected Employee who does not receive a written offer of employment from Buyer in such 20-day period shall be free to look for and, subject to Section 8.8, accept another position either within or without the Xxxxxxx & Xxxxxxx Family of Companies (each, a “Released Employee”). Any Selected Employee who does receive and accept a written offer of employment from Buyer in such 20-day period shall be deemed to be a “Continuing Employee.” For the purposes of this Article VIII, "Comparable Employment" shall mean a position which has essentially the same job description and financial compensation, which can include, without limitation, base salary, annual performance and incentive bonuses, Certificates of Extra Compensation dividends and vesting, and 401(k) match, as the position which such Selected Employee had immediately prior to the Closing. Nothing in this Article VIII shall be construed to create any third party beneficiary rights in or on behalf of any Employee or other person.
Section 8.2. Terms of Employment.
Prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall retain the right to continue its compensation practices consistent with past practice. After the Closing Date, Buyer agrees to maintain and continue such generally Comparable Employment for each Continuing Employee for a period of at least twelve (12) months following the Closing Date, except for any such Employee whose employment is terminated for failure to perform or otherwise “for cause.” Notwithstanding the foregoing Section 8.2: Buyer may terminate a Continuing Employee in the period between the Closing Date and the twelve-month anniversary of the Closing Date, provided that each Continuing Employee so terminated shall receive from Buyer the base salary or wage and benefits that would have been paid or provided for the period from the date of termination through the end of that twelve month period as well as severance benefits of no less coverage or aggregate benefit (recognizing all service with Seller and Buyer and their respective Affiliates) than the greater in value of (i) those severance benefits (including the continuation of medical and dental insurance coverage at the same premium cost as was applicable during active employment) which such Employee would have received under Seller's severance plan in effect immediately prior to the Closing (a summary of benefits is annexed hereto as Exhibit E), (ii) such then-current severance benefits in effect under Buyer's severance plan at such time, or, (iii) any other severance benefits required to be paid by law.
Unless otherwise specified in this Article VIII, each Continuing Employee will be covered under the employee benefit plans of Buyer available to other employees of Buyer who are employed in similar categories of employment. Buyer shall offer each non-union Continuing Employee the opportunity, as of the Closing Date, to participate in all of Buyer's employee benefit plans for which each such Employee would be eligible under the guidelines for such plans. Within the 20-day period after the date of this Agreement, Buyer shall provide to Seller summaries of the material terms and conditions of and guidelines for Buyer's employee benefit plans (including, but not limited to, medical and dental insurance plans, life insurance plan, pension plan, savings plan, short-term and long-term disability plans, employee stock ownership plan, vacation plan and severance or termination plan). For vesting and eligibility purposes under all of Buyer's employee benefit plans, all Continuing Employees shall be given full credit for all service with Seller, Seller's Affiliates or Seller's former Affiliates. In addition to such recognition of all such prior service for purposes of vesting and eligibility, all Continuing Employees shall be given credit for such prior service for purposes of (i) accrual of severance benefits and (ii) accrual of vacation benefits. Exhibit F hereto lists all periods of service of a Continuing Employee with Seller, Seller's Affiliates or Seller's former Affiliates, and Buyer shall be entitled to rely on such Exhibit F for the purposes of determining periods of prior service under this Section 8.3; provided that Seller shall update Exhibit F at the Closing.
Section 8.4. Benefits Requirements.
Buyer agrees that in complying with the benefit requirements set forth in this Article VIII: (a) no pre-existing medical condition of any Continuing Employee or his or her eligible dependents shall cause Buyer to deny, delay or otherwise alter coverage under Buyer's benefit plans to any such person and (b) all expenses incurred by Continuing Employees in 2001 prior to the Closing Date for deductible amounts or maximum out-of-pocket amounts for 2001 under Seller’s comprehensive medical/dental benefit plan will be applied towards and reduce, on a dollar for dollar basis, any such amounts under Buyer's analogous plan(s).
If after deduction of vacation time actually taken by a Continuing Employee in 2001, such Employee would be entitled to more vacation time in 2001 under Seller's vacation policy, such Employee shall be entitled to such excess vacation time without pay. Seller agrees to pay each Employee for all accrued and unused vacation through the Closing Date as set forth in Exhibit G hereto.
Section 8.6. Seller Obligations.
Employees who have vested rights or entitlement to benefits under any of the benefit plans of Seller or its Affiliates shall remain entitled to receive such benefits in accordance with the terms of such plans. Seller and its Affiliates remain responsible for death claims based on death occurring on or before the Closing Date and for medical and dental claims for services rendered to covered employees and their eligible dependents on or before the Closing Date as well as any benefits available to and elected by Employees under the extension of benefits provisions of Seller's (and to the extent applicable, its Affiliates') benefit plans. It is understood and agreed that except as expressly set forth in this Article VIII, Buyer shall not assume (a) any liability for pension plan benefits or under any employee benefit plan sponsored by Seller (or any of its Affiliates) which may be owing to any Employee as a result of his or her employment with Seller (or any of its Affiliates) or (b) any other obligation or liability of Seller (or any of its Affiliates) (i) to any present or former employee of Seller (or any of its Affiliates) arising as a result of his employment with Seller (or any of its Affiliates), including, without limitation, compensation, vacation, severance or termination pay or (ii) otherwise arising from Seller’s employer-employee relationship with the Employees.
Section 8.7. Disabled Employees and Dependents.
Employees receiving short- or long-term disability benefits as of the Closing Date shall, to the extent provided under the benefit plans of Seller (and to the extent applicable, its Affiliates), remain the responsibility of Seller until the end of their disability period.
Section 8.8. Transition and Retention.
Within the 20-day period after the date of this Agreement, Seller and Buyer shall cooperate to develop a list of transition employees to offer a retention incentive to remain with the Business until the Closing Date (each such employee, a “Transition Employee”). Notwithstanding Section 8.1 above, Seller agrees not to release any Released Employee who is also a Transition Employee until the Closing Date except (a) for any such Employee whose employment is terminated for failure to perform or otherwise “for cause” (b) where required by law or (c) Seller receives the prior written approval of Buyer. Such retention incentives shall be jointly funded by Seller and Buyer. The departure of one or more Transition Employees from the Business prior to the Closing Date shall not be considered a Material Adverse Event.

Section 12.11. Entire Agreement
Before signing this Agreement the parties have had numerous conversations including, without limitation, preliminary discussions, formal negotiations and informal conversations, and have generated correspondence and other writings, in which the parties discussed the transaction which is the subject of this Agreement and their aspirations for success. In such conversations and writings, individuals representing the parties may have expressed their judgments and beliefs concerning the intentions, capabilities, and practices of the parties, and may have forecasted future events. The parties recognize that such conversations and writings often involve an effort by both sides to be positive and optimistic about the prospects for the transaction. However, it is also recognized that all business transactions contain an element of risk, as does the transaction contemplated by this Agreement, and that it is normal business practice to limit the legal obligations of contracting parties to only those promises and representations which are essential to their transaction so as to provide certainty as to their respective future rights and remedies. Accordingly, other than the Confidentiality Agreement, this Agreement is intended to define the full extent of the legally enforceable undertakings of the parties hereto, and no promise or representation, written or oral, which is not set forth explicitly in this Agreement or such letter agreement is intended by either party to be legally binding. Each of the parties acknowledge that in deciding to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the transaction contemplated hereby none of them has relied upon any statements or representations, written or oral, other than those explicitly set forth herein or therein. BUYER AGREES THAT THE REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES GIVEN HEREIN BY SELLER IS IN LIEU OF, AND BUYER HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ALL RIGHTS TO, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES WHICH MAY OTHERWISE BE APPLICABLE BECAUSE OF THE PROVISIONS OF THE UNIFORM COMMERCIAL CODE OR ANY OTHER STATUTE, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
(a) Any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of this agreement, or the interpretation, application, breach, termination or validity thereof, including any claim of inducement by fraud or otherwise, shall, before submission to arbitration in accordance with the following Section of this Agreement, first be mediated through non-binding mediation in accordance with the Model Procedures for the Mediation of Business Disputes promulgated by the Center for Public Resources (“CPR”) then in effect, except where those rules conflict with these provisions, in which case these provisions control. The mediation shall be conducted in Trenton, New Jersey and shall be attended by a senior executive with authority to resolve the dispute from each of the operating companies that are parties.
(b) The mediator shall be an attorney specializing in business litigation who has at least 15 years of experience as a lawyer with a law firm or corporation of over 10 lawyers or was a judge of a court of general jurisdiction and who shall be appointed from the list of neutrals maintained by CPR.
(c) The parties shall promptly confer in an effort to select a mediator by mutual agreement. In the absence of such an agreement, the mediator shall be selected from a list generated by CPR with each party having the right to exercise challenges for cause and two peremptory challenges within 72 hours of receiving the CPR list.
(d) The mediator shall confer with the parties to design procedures to conclude the mediation within no more than 45 days after initiation. Under no circumstances shall the commencement of arbitration under Section 11.13 below be delayed more than 45 days by the mediation process specified herein.
(e) Each party agrees to toll all applicable statutes of limitation during the mediation process and not to use the period or pendency of the mediation to disadvantage the other party procedurally or otherwise. No statements made by either side during the mediation may be used by the other during any subsequent arbitration.
(f) Each party has the right to pursue provisional relief from any court, such as attachment, preliminary injunction, replevin, etc., to avoid irreparable harm, maintain the status quo, or preserve the subject matter of the arbitration, even though mediation has not been commenced or completed.
Section 12.13. Arbitration of Disputes.
(a) Any dispute, claim or controversy arising from or related in any way to this Agreement or the interpretation, application, breach, termination or validity thereof, including any claim of inducement of this Agreement by fraud or otherwise, will be submitted for resolution to arbitration pursuant to the commercial arbitration rules then pertaining of the CPR, except where those rules conflict with these provisions, in which case these provisions control. The arbitration will be held in Trenton, New Jersey.
(b) The panel shall consist of one arbitrator chosen from the CPR Panels of Distinguished Neutrals who is a lawyer specializing in business litigation with at least 15 years experience with a law firm or corporation of over 10 lawyers or was a judge of a court of general jurisdiction.
(c) The parties agree to cooperate (1) to obtain selection of the arbitrator within 30 days of initiation of the arbitration, (2) to meet with the arbitrator within 30 days of selection and (3) to agree at that meeting or before upon procedures for discovery and as to the conduct of the hearing which will result in the hearing being concluded within no more than 9 months after selection of the arbitrator and in the award being rendered within 60 days of the conclusion of the hearings, or of any post-hearing briefing, which briefing will be completed by both sides with 20 days after the conclusion of the hearings. In the event no such agreement is reached, the CPR will select an arbitrator, allowing appropriate strikes for reasons of conflict or other cause and three peremptory challenges for each side. The arbitrator shall set a date for the hearing, commit to the rendering of the award within 60 days of the conclusion of the evidence at the hearing, or of any post-hearing briefing (which briefing will be completed by both sides in no more than 20 days after the conclusion of the hearings), and provide for discovery according to these time limits, giving recognition to the understanding of the parties hereto that they contemplate reasonable discovery, including document demands and depositions, but that such discovery be limited so that the time limits specified herein may be met without undue difficulty. In no event will the arbitrator allow either side to obtain more than a total of 40 hours of deposition testimony from all witnesses, including both fact and expert witnesses. To that end each of the parties hereto agrees to pursue no more than the following discovery in the aggregate from all parties and non-parties to the action: a total of no more than 20 requests for documents (including subparts) set forth in no more than two separately served document demands; a total of no more than 20 interrogatories (including subparts) set forth in no more than two separately served sets of interrogatories. In the event multiple hearing days are required, they will be scheduled consecutively to the greatest extent possible.
(d) The arbitrator shall render its award following the substantive law of New Jersey. The arbitrator shall render an opinion setting forth findings of fact and conclusions of law with the reasons therefor stated. A transcript of the evidence adduced at the hearing shall be made and shall, upon request, be made available to either party.
(e) To the extent possible, the arbitration hearings and award will be maintained in confidence.
(f) The United States District Court for the District of New Jersey may enter judgment upon any award. In the event the panel’s award exceeds $5 million in monetary Damages or includes or consists of equitable relief, then the court shall vacate, modify or correct any award where the arbitrators’ findings of fact are clearly erroneous, and/or where the arbitrators’ conclusions of law are erroneous; in other words, it will undertake the same review as if it were a federal appellate court reviewing a district court’s findings of fact and conclusions of law rendered after a bench trial. An award for less than $5 million in Damages and not including equitable relief may be vacated, modified or corrected only upon the grounds specified in the Federal Arbitration Act. The parties consent to the jurisdiction of the above-specified Court for the enforcement of these provisions, the entry of judgment on any award, and the vacatur, modification and correction of any award as above specified. In the event such Court lacks jurisdiction, then any court having jurisdiction of this matter may enter judgment upon any award and provide the same relief, and undertake the same review, as specified herein.
(g) Each party has the right before or during the arbitration to seek and obtain from the appropriate court provisional remedies such as attachment, preliminary injunction, replevin, etc. to avoid irreparable harm, maintain the status quo, or preserve the subject matter of the arbitration.
(h) EACH PARTY HERETO WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO TRIAL OF ANY ISSUE BY JURY.
(i) EACH PARTY HERETO WAIVES ANY CLAIM TO PUNITIVE OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES FROM THE OTHER.
(j) EACH PARTY HERETO WAIVES ANY CLAIM OF CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES FROM THE OTHER.
IN WITNESSWHEREOF, the parties hereto have duly executed this Agreement as of the date first above written.

SCHEDULE 2.5
To Asset Purchase Agreement
NOTE: The attached schedule is indicative only. It is based on a preliminary assessment of the fair market value of each relevant tangible and intangible asset class other than goodwill. The purchase price is to be determined. The allocation to goodwill will be the residual amount. Global goodwill is allocated among J&J affiliates based upon sales activity. Our allocation methodology reflects the requirements of Section 1060 of the Code and the U.S. Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder.
We expect to revise this schedule to reflect: (i) purchase price and post closing adjustments to purchase price, (ii) refined assessments of the fair market value of the asset classes sold and (iii) revised information about the sales activities of J&J affiliates.

SCHEDULE 3.14
To Asset Purchase Agreement
COMPLIANCE WITH ENVIRONMENTAL LAWS
SCHEDULE 4.3
To Asset Purchase Agreement
GOVERNMENTAL AUTHORIZATIONS
Buyer expects to file a Current Report on Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) in accordance with Item 2 thereof in connection with its execution of the Agreement.
Buyer acknowledges and agrees that:
(a) Buyer is solely responsible for (i) complying with Item 2, and (ii) providing the financial statements required by the SEC in order to so comply.
(b) In no event will Seller provide the financial statements required by Item 2.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller will, for a period of six (6) months after the date of the Agreement, reasonably cooperate with Buyer to assist Buyer in preparing the statements of assets and liabilities to be acquired, as of December 31, 2000 and April 1, 2001 and the revenues and expenses related to the assets and liabilities to be acquired for the years ended December 31, 2000 and January 2, 2000 and the quarter ended April 1, 2001, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (the “Financial Statements”). In the event that the hours spent by one or more of Seller’s or its Affiliate’s employees in cooperating with Buyer exceeds an amount equal to 40 hours, then thereafter Buyer will reimburse Seller for its reasonable costs in cooperating with Buyer, including the allocable cost of Seller’s or its Affiliate’s employees’ time at the rate of $100 per hour per employee. Buyer will engage its own accounting firm to audit the Financial Statements; provided, however, that Seller will engage PriceWaterhouseCoopers, LLP (“PWC”) to perform certain audit procedures to assist Buyer’s accounting firm in auditing the Financial Statements; provided further that Buyer will bear one half the cost of such engagement by PWC, but in no event will Buyer pay more than $32,500 with respect to such engagement by PWC.
