ARTICLE VII - INDEMNIFICATION
7.1 INDEMNIFICATION.
(a) BY BUYER. Subject to the other provisions of this Section,
Buyer hereby agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless Seller from and
against and in respect of any and all Losses incurred by Seller which may be
imposed on, sustained, incurred or suffered by or assessed against Seller,
directly or indirectly, as a result of or relating to or to the extent
arising out of any breach of the representations or warranties of Buyer
contained in this Agreement, with any such breach determined as if any such
representations or warranties were given as of the Closing Date.
(b) BY SELLER. Subject to the other provisions of this Section,
Seller hereby agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless Buyer from and
against and in respect of any and all Losses incurred by Buyer which may be
imposed on, sustained, incurred or suffered by or assessed against Buyer,
directly or indirectly, as a result of or relating to or to the extent
arising out of any breach of the representations or warranties of Seller
contained in this Agreement, with any such breach determined as if any such
representations or warranties were given as of the Closing Date.
(c) NOTICE OF CLAIM. If Buyer or Seller (each, an "INDEMNIFIED
PARTY") become aware of any claim, proceeding or other matter (a "CLAIM")
which may give rise to a Loss, the Indemnified Party shall promptly give
notice thereof to the other party (the "INDEMNIFYING PARTY"). Such notice
shall specify whether the Claim arises as a result of a Claim by a Person
against the Indemnified Party (a "THIRD PARTY CLAIM") or whether the Claim
does not so arise (a "DIRECT CLAIM"), and shall also specify with reasonable
particularity (to the extent that the information is available) the factual
basis for the Claim and the amount of the Claim, if known. If, through the
fault of the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party does not receive
notice of any Claim in time to contest effectively the determination of any
Loss susceptible of being contested, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled
to set off against the amount claimed by the Indemnified Party the amount of
any Losses
13
EXECUTION ORIGINAL
incurred by the Indemnifying Party resulting from the Indemnified Party's
failure to give such notice on a timely basis.
(d) DIRECT CLAIMS. With respect to any Direct Claim, following
receipt of notice from the Indemnified Party of the Claim, the Indemnifying
Party shall have 60 days to make such investigation of the Claim as is
considered necessary or desirable. For the purpose of such investigation, the
Indemnified Party shall make available to the Indemnifying Party the
information relied upon by the Indemnified Party to substantiate the Claim,
together with all such other information as the Indemnifying Party may
reasonably request. If both parties agree at or prior to the expiration of
such 60-day period (or any mutually agreed upon extension thereof) to the
validity and amount of such Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall immediately
pay to the Indemnified Party the full agreed upon amount of the Claim.
(e) THIRD PARTY CLAIMS.
(i) With respect to any Third Party Claims, the Indemnifying
Party shall have the right, at its expense and at its election, to assume
control of the negotiation, settlement and defense of the Claim through
counsel of its choice. In such event, the Indemnifying Party shall reimburse
the Indemnified Party for all the Indemnified Party's reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses as a result of such assumption. The election of the
Indemnifying Party to assume such control shall be made within 60 days of
receipt of notice of the Third Party Claim, failing which the Indemnifying
Party shall be deemed to have elected not to do so. If the Indemnifying Party
elects to assume such control, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to
be informed and consulted with respect to the negotiation, settlement or
defenses of such Third Party Claim and to retain counsel to act on its
behalf, but the fees and disbursements of such counsel shall be paid by the
Indemnified Party unless the Indemnifying Party consents to the retention of
such counsel or unless the named parties to any action or proceeding include
both the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party and a representation of
both the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party by the same counsel
would be inappropriate due to the actual or potential differing interests
between them (such as the availability of different defenses). If the
Indemnifying Party, having elected to assume such control, thereafter fails
to defend the Third Party Claim within a reasonable time, the Indemnified
Party shall be entitled to assume such control, and the Indemnifying Party
shall be bound by the results obtained by the Indemnified Party with respect
to the Third Party Claim. If any Third Party Claim is of a nature such that
the Indemnified party is required by applicable Law to make a payment to any
Person (a "THIRD PARTY") with respect to the Third Party Claim before the
completion of settlement negotiations or related legal proceedings, the
Indemnified Party may make such payment and the Indemnifying Party shall
forthwith, after demand by the Indemnified Party, reimburse the Indemnified
Party for such payment. If the amount of any liability of the Indemnified
Party under the Third Party Claim in respect of which such payment was made,
as finally determined, is less than the amount which was paid by the
Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party shall,
promptly after receipt of the difference from the Third Party, pay the amount
of such difference to the Indemnifying Party.
(ii) If the Indemnifying Party fails to assume control of the
defense of any Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the
exclusive right to consent, settle or pay the amount claimed. Whether or not
the Indemnifying Party assumes control of the negotiation, settlement or
defenses of any Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall not settle
any Third Party Claim without the written consent of the Indemnified Party,
which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
14
EXECUTION ORIGINAL
(iii) The Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall
cooperate fully with each other with respect to Third Party Claims, and,
regardless of which party has control thereof as provided for herein, shall
keep each other fully advised with respect thereto (including supplying
copies of all relevant documentation promptly as it becomes available).
(f) ADJUSTMENT TO PURCHASE PRICE. Any payment by Seller under this
Article VIII shall be deemed an adjustment to the Purchase Price.
ARTICLE VIII - CONFIDENTIALITY
8.1 CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. During this Agreement, each party may
have access to information that is considered confidential by the other
("Confidential Information").
8.2 USE. Each party shall use the other party's Confidential
Information only for the purposes of this Agreement. Each party shall
maintain the confidentiality of the other party's Confidential Information in
the same manner in which it protects its own Confidential Information of like

precautions to prevent the unauthorized disclosure or use of the other
party's Confidential Information.
8.3 DISCLOSURE. Each party is permitted to disclose the other party's
Confidential Information to its employees and contractors on a need to know
basis only, provided that such employees and contractors have written
confidentiality obligations to that party no less stringent than those
contained in this Agreement.
8.4 EXCEPTIONS. The confidentiality provisions of this Agreement do not
apply to information that is or becomes entirely in the public domain through
no fault of the receiving party; was received lawfully from a third party
through no breach of any obligation of confidentiality owed to the disclosing
party; or created by a party independently of its access to or use of the
other party's Confidential Information. In addition, nothing contained in
this Agreement shall be construed to prevent GBI from complying with its
disclosure obligations pursuant to U.S. securities laws.
8.5 TERMINATION AND SURVIVAL. Upon termination or expiration of this
Agreement, each party shall return the other party's Confidential Information
and shall not use the other party's Confidential Information for its own, or
any third party's, benefit. The provisions of this Section shall survive
termination of this Agreement for so long as the Confidential Information
remains confidential.

provision or part of a provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, void
or unenforceable shall not effect the legality or validity of the remainder
of this Agreement.

parties hereto. Neither party hereto shall have any right or authority to
create any obligation, warranty, representation or responsibility, express or
