(vi) The Independent Accountant shall act solely as an expert and not as an arbitrator (except to the extent set forth in the last sentence of Section 2.03(c)(ii)) to determine, based upon the provisions of this Section 2.03(c), only the Disputed Amounts and the determination of each amount of the Disputed Amounts shall be made in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.03(a) hereof. The parties shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Independent Accountant’s determination of the Disputed Amounts to be no less than the lesser of the amount claimed by either Seller or Purchaser, and shall be no greater than the greater of the amount claimed by either Seller or Purchaser; provided, that if, notwithstanding the commercially reasonable efforts of Seller and Purchaser, (A) the Independent Accountant’s determination of any Disputed Amount is less than the lesser of the amounts claimed by either Seller or Purchaser, then such disputed amount shall be deemed to be the lesser of the amounts claimed by either Seller or Purchaser or (B) the Independent Accountant’s determination of any Disputed Amount is more than the greater of the amounts claimed by either Seller or Purchaser, then such disputed amount shall be deemed to be the greater of the amounts claimed by either Seller or Purchaser.

(d) Upon the final determination, in accordance with Section 2.03(b) or Section 2.03(c) hereof, of the Final Purchase Price, Seller or Purchaser, as the case may be, shall make the payment required by this Section 2.03(d).

(ii) If (X) the Final Purchase Price is less than (Y) the Initial Purchase Price, (such difference, the “Downward Purchase Price Adjustment”), then (A) if the Purchase Price Holdback Amount exceeds the amount of the Downward Purchase Price Adjustment, Purchaser shall pay to Seller the amount of such excess, and (B) if the amount of the Downward Purchase Price Adjustment exceeds the Purchase Price Holdback Amount, Seller shall pay to Purchaser the amount of such excess. Any amount to be paid by Seller pursuant to this Section 2.03(d) shall be paid within three (3) Business Days after the determination of the Final Purchase Price by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Purchaser in writing to Seller promptly after the final determination of the Final Purchase Price and Seller shall be liable for such amounts.

(iii) If (X) the Final Purchase Price is equal to (Y) the Initial Purchase Price, there shall be no adjustment pursuant to this Section 2.03(d). In such event, Purchaser shall pay to Seller the Purchase Price Holdback Amount.

Article VI
Tax Matters

Section 6.01 Returns and Payment of Taxes.

(a) Seller shall have the authority and obligation (at Seller’s sole cost and expense) to prepare and file timely, or cause to be prepared and filed timely, all Returns of the Company that are due with respect to any taxable period ending on or before the Closing Date (each such Return, a “Pre-Closing Return”); provided, that Seller shall submit all Pre-Closing Returns to Purchaser no later than thirty (30) days prior to the due date of such Pre-Closing Returns for Purchaser’s review, comment and approval, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Such Returns shall be prepared by treating items on such Returns in a manner consistent with the past practices of the Company with respect to such items, except as otherwise required by applicable law. If Purchaser consents to such Returns, the Company shall execute and file such Returns as prepared by Seller. In addition, Seller shall pay, on or prior to five (5) days before the applicable due date, any amount due and payable on such Returns, except to the extent such amount was paid on or prior to the Closing Date or included as a liability in Indebtedness or Closing Working Capital and applied to reduce the Final Purchase Price.

(b) Purchaser (at Purchaser’s sole cost and expense) shall have the exclusive authority to prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and filed, all Returns required to be filed by the Company for any taxable period ending after the Closing Date, including Returns of the Company that are due with respect to any Overlap Period (each such Return, an “Overlap Period Return”); provided, however, that Overlap Period Returns shall be prepared by treating items on such Returns in a manner consistent with the past practices of the Company with respect to such items, except as otherwise required by applicable law, and, to the extent Seller could reasonably be expected to have a liability with respect thereto, Purchaser shall submit each Overlap Period Return to Seller no later than thirty (30) days prior to the due date of such Overlap Period Return for Seller’s review, comment and approval, (which approval may be withheld only to the extent such Overlap Period Return has not been prepared in accordance with the past practices of the Company with respect to such items, except as otherwise required by applicable law, and such deviation from past practice would increase Seller’s liability under this Agreement). Seller shall be liable for any Taxes attributable to the portion of an Overlap Period ending on and including the Closing Date, as determined in accordance with Section 6.01(c), and Seller shall pay to Purchaser on or prior to five (5) days before the applicable due date any amount due and payable on any Overlap Period Return to the extent such amount is so apportioned to Seller.

(c) All Taxes and Tax liabilities with respect to the income, property or operations of the Company that relate to an Overlap Period shall be apportioned between the Pre-Closing Period and the taxable period after the Closing Date as follows: (i) in the case of Taxes other than income, sales and use and withholding Taxes, on a per-diem basis, and (ii) in the case of income, sales and use and withholding Taxes, as determined from the books and records of the Company as though the taxable year of the Company terminated at the close of business on the Closing Date; provided, however, that any deductions or losses arising from expenses or fees funded by Purchaser shall be allocated to Purchaser (and thus to taxable periods after the Closing Date) for all purposes of this Agreement.

(d) All transfer, sales and use, registration, stamp and similar Taxes imposed in connection with the sale of the Equity Interests or any other transaction that occurs pursuant to this Agreement shall be borne solely by Seller. For the avoidance of doubt, such transfer, sales and use, registration, stamp and similar Taxes shall not include Taxes imposed on or with respect to income (however denominated) or gain of any of the parties.

-53-

(e) Seller shall terminate or cause to be terminated any and all of the tax sharing, allocation, indemnification or similar agreements, arrangements or undertakings in effect, written or unwritten, on the Closing Date as between Seller or any predecessor or Affiliate thereof, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, for all Taxes imposed by any government or taxing authority, regardless of the period in which such Taxes are imposed, and there shall be no continuing obligation to make any payments under any such agreements, arrangements or undertakings.

Section 6.02 Controversies.

(a) Purchaser shall promptly notify Seller upon receipt by Purchaser or any Affiliate of Purchaser (including the Company after the Closing Date) of written notice of any inquiries, claims, assessments, audits or similar events with respect to Taxes relating to a Pre-Closing Period for which Seller may reasonably be expected to be liable under this Agreement (any such inquiry, claim, assessment, audit or similar event with respect to a taxable period ending on or prior to the Closing Date, a “Tax Matter”). Seller, at Seller’s sole cost and expense, shall have the authority to represent the interests of the Company with respect to any Tax Matter before the IRS, any other taxing authority or any other Governmental Entity and shall have the right to control the defense, compromise or other resolution of any Tax Matter, including responding to inquiries, filing Returns and contesting, defending against and resolving any assessment for additional Taxes or notice of Tax deficiency or other adjustment of Taxes of, or relating to, a Tax Matter; provided, that neither Seller nor any of Seller’s Affiliates shall enter into any settlement of or otherwise compromise any Tax Matter that adversely affects or may adversely affect the Tax liability of Purchaser, the Company or any Affiliate of the foregoing for any period ending after the Closing Date, including the portion of the Overlap Period that is after the Closing Date, without the prior written consent of Purchaser. Seller shall keep Purchaser fully and timely informed with respect to the commencement, status and nature of any Tax Matter. Seller shall, in good faith, allow Purchaser to make comments to Seller, regarding the conduct of or positions taken in any such proceeding.

(b) Except as otherwise provided in Section 6.02(a), or if Seller does not elect to control a proceeding pursuant to Section 6.02(a), Purchaser shall have the sole right to control any audit or examination by any taxing authority, initiate any claim for refund, amend any Return, and contest, resolve and defend against any assessment for additional Taxes, notice of Tax deficiency or other adjustment of Taxes of or relating to the Company and its income, assets and operations for all taxable periods; provided, however, that Purchaser shall not, and shall cause the Company not to, enter into any settlement of any contest or otherwise compromise any issue with respect to a Pre-Closing Period that could reasonably be expected to increase the Tax liability of Seller without the prior written consent of Seller, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

Section 6.03 Indemnification for Taxes. Seller shall indemnify, defend and hold Purchaser and its Affiliates (including the Company after the Closing Date) and their respective stockholders, Representatives, partners, members, managers, officers and directors harmless on an after-tax basis from and against any Losses suffered, incurred or paid, directly or indirectly, by them as a result of, arising out of or related to: (i) all Taxes, losses, claims and expenses resulting from, arising out of, or incurred with respect to, any claims that may be asserted by any party based on, attributable to, or resulting from the failure of any representation or warranty made pursuant to Section 3.07(xii) or Section 3.14 to be true and correct in all respects on and as of the Closing Date (without giving effect to any “material”, “materially”, “materiality”, “Material Adverse Effect”, “material adverse effect”, “material adverse change” or similar qualification contained therein); (ii) all Taxes imposed on, asserted against or attributable to the Company and its income, assets or operations, or any Taxes for which the Company is otherwise liable, for all Pre-Closing Periods; (iii) all Taxes imposed on the Company as a result of the provisions of Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-6 or the analogous provisions of any state, local or foreign Law; and (iv) all Taxes imposed on the Company, or for which the Company may be liable, as a result of any transaction contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 6.04 Post-Closing Access and Cooperation.

(a) After the Closing Date, Purchaser and the Company, on the one hand, and Seller, on the other hand, shall furnish or cause to be furnished to each other, upon request, as promptly as practicable, such information and assistance (including access to books, records, work papers and Returns for Pre-Closing Periods) relating to the Company as is reasonably necessary for the preparation of any Return, claim for refund or audit, and the prosecution or defense of any claim, suit or proceeding relating to any proposed Tax adjustment, or in connection with any accounting or audit of financial statements. Upon reasonable notice, each of Seller and Purchaser shall make its, or shall cause the Company to make its, employees and facilities available on a mutually convenient basis to provide reasonable explanation of any documents or information provided hereunder.

(b) Any request for information or documents pursuant to this Section 6.04 shall be made by the requesting party in writing. The other party hereto shall promptly provide the requested information. Any information obtained under this Section 6.04 shall be kept confidential, except as otherwise reasonably may be necessary in connection with the filing of Returns or claims for refund or in conducting any Tax audit, dispute or contest or in connection with the preparation of any financial statements.

Section 6.05 Survival. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, the covenants and agreements of the parties contained in this Article VI shall survive the Closing and shall remain in full force in accordance with their terms; provided, however, that Seller’s obligations pursuant to Section 6.03 shall terminate no earlier than ninety (90) days following the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations relating to the Loss or Tax that results in Seller’s obligation; provided, further, that any claim made by Purchaser pursuant to Section 6.03 within the time periods set forth in this Section 6.05 shall survive until such claim is finally and fully resolved.

-56-

(b) The maximum aggregate amount of indemnifiable Losses which may be recovered for indemnification pursuant to Section 7.02(a) or Section 7.03(a), as applicable, shall be an amount equal to One Million One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,100,000).

(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the limitations set forth in Section 7.04(a) and Section 7.04(b) shall not apply to Losses incurred by any Purchaser Indemnitee or any Seller Indemnitee in connection with or arising from (i) any breach of any Fundamental Representation, (ii) Tax Matters addressed in Article VI or (iii) fraud.

(d) The maximum aggregate amount of Losses which may be recovered for indemnification under Section 7.02(a) and Section 7.02(b) of this Agreement by Purchaser Indemnitees, on the one hand, or Seller Indemnitees, on the other hand, shall be equal to the Final Purchase Price.

(e) The amount of any Losses that are subject to indemnification under this Article VII shall be reduced by (a) the amount by which (i) any insurance proceeds under the Commercial Insurance Policy and any other indemnity, contribution, or similar payment actually received by the Indemnified Party relating to such Loss exceeds (ii) the amount of expenses incurred by such Indemnified Party in procuring such insurance recovery, including reasonable legal fees and expenses and any increased premiums or costs as a result of such claim for which insurance proceeds are received and (b) any Tax benefits received by the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates (collectively, “Recovered Losses”).

The Indemnified Party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to recover under the Commercial Insurance Policy or indemnity, contribution, or other similar agreements for any Losses.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Purchaser Indemnitees shall have no right to make any claim under this Article VII with respect to any matter to the extent the expense, loss or liability comprising the Loss (or a part thereof) with respect to such matter has reduced the Final Purchase Price or any component thereof.

Section 7.05 Indemnification Procedure.

(a) Promptly after any event, circumstance, development, state of facts or occurrence (or obtaining knowledge thereof) that results or may result in any Losses by any Person entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 7.02 or Section 7.02(a) including, any claim by a Person described in Section 7.06 (an “Indemnified Party”), which might give rise to indemnification hereunder, the Indemnified Party shall deliver to the party from which indemnification is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) a certificate (a “Claim Certificate”), which Claim Certificate shall:

(i) state that the Indemnified Party has paid or anticipates it will incur liability for Losses for which such Indemnified Party believes it is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement; and

(ii) specify in reasonable detail each individual item of Loss included in the amount so stated, the date such item was paid (if paid), the basis for any anticipated Liability and the nature of the misrepresentation, breach of warranty, breach of covenant or claim to which each such item is related and the computation, if possible, of the amount to which such Indemnified Party claims to be entitled hereunder;

provided, that the failure to so notify shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is actually and materially prejudiced thereby.

-57-

(b) In the event that the Indemnifying Party shall object to the indemnification of an Indemnified Party in respect of any claim or claims specified in any Claim Certificate (other than a Third Party Claim, which is addressed in Section 7.06), the Indemnifying Party shall deliver to the Indemnified Party a notice to such effect, specifying in reasonable detail the basis for such objection, and the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall, within the sixty (60) day period beginning on the date of receipt by the Indemnified Party of such objection and prior to submitting such dispute to the courts set forth in Section 8.09, attempt in good faith to agree upon the rights of the respective parties with respect to each of such claims to which the Indemnifying Party shall have so objected. If the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall succeed in reaching agreement on their respective rights with respect to any of such claims, the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall promptly prepare and sign a memorandum of agreement setting forth such agreement. Should the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party be unable to agree as to any particular item or items or amount or amounts within such time period, then the Indemnified Party shall be permitted to submit such dispute to the courts set forth in Section 8.09.

(c) Claims for Losses covered by a memorandum of agreement of the nature described in Section 7.05(b), and claims for Losses the validity and amount of which have been the subject of judicial determination as described in Section 7.05(b) and Section 8.09 hereof or shall have been settled as described in Section 7.06, are hereinafter referred to, collectively, as “Agreed Claims”. Within ten (10) Business Days of the determination of the amount of any Agreed Claim (or at such other time as the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall agree), the Indemnifying Party shall pay to the Indemnified Party an amount equal to the Agreed Claim by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the bank account or accounts designated by the Indemnified Party in a notice to the Indemnifying Party not less than five (5) Business Days prior to such payment.

Section 7.06 Third-Party Claims.

(a) If a claim by a third party is made against any Indemnified Party (other than a claim for or with respect to Taxes, which shall be governed under Section 6.02) (a “Third Party Claim”), and if such party intends to seek indemnity with respect thereto under this Article VII, such Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Indemnifying Party of such Third Party Claim; provided, that the failure to so notify shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is actually and materially prejudiced thereby. The Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice to assume the conduct and control, through counsel reasonably acceptable (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed) to the Indemnified Party at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, of the settlement or defense of such Third Party Claim and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with it in connection therewith; provided, that the Indemnifying Party shall permit the Indemnified Party to participate in such settlement or defense through counsel chosen by such Indemnified Party; provided, that the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be borne by such Indemnified Party; and provided, further, that the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to assume control of such defense if (A) such Third Party Claim for indemnification relates to or arises in connection with any criminal proceeding, action, indictment, allegation or investigation; (B) such Third Party Claim would give rise to Losses which are more than 200% of the applicable limitation on Losses applicable to such Claim; (C) such Third Party Claim seeks an injunction or equitable relief against the Indemnified Party; (D) the Indemnified Party has been advised in writing by counsel that a reasonable likelihood exists of a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party that materially impairs effective joint representation; (E) the Indemnified Party reasonably believes an adverse determination with respect to the action, lawsuit, investigation, proceeding or other claim giving rise to such claim for indemnification would have a Material Adverse Effect; or (F) upon petition by the Indemnified Party, the appropriate court rules that the Indemnifying Party failed or is failing to vigorously prosecute or defend such Third Party Claim.

-58-

(b) Any Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action or claim and to participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall not be at the expense of the Indemnifying Party unless (i) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed, or is not entitled, to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim in accordance with Section 7.06(a), (ii) the employment of such counsel has been specifically authorized in writing by the Indemnifying Party, which authorization shall not be unreasonably withheld, or (iii) the named parties to any such action (including any impleaded parties) include both such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party and such Indemnified Party shall have been advised in writing by such counsel that there may be one (1) or more legal defenses available to the Indemnified Party which are not available to the Indemnifying Party, or available to the Indemnifying Party but the assertion of which would be adverse to the interests of the Indemnified Party, and, in each case of the foregoing clauses (i)–(iii), such counsel is reasonably acceptable to the Indemnifying Party (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed). So long as the Indemnifying Party is reasonably contesting any such Third Party Claim in good faith, the Indemnified Party shall not pay or settle any such Third Party Claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to pay or settle any such Third Party Claim; provided, that in such event it shall waive any right to indemnity therefor by the Indemnifying Party for such Third Party Claim unless the Indemnifying Party shall have consented to such payment or settlement.

(c) If the Indemnifying Party does not notify the Indemnified Party within twenty (20) days after the receipt of the Indemnified Party’s notice of a Third Party Claim of indemnity hereunder that it elects to undertake the defense thereof, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to contest, settle or compromise the Third Party Claim as set forth in this Agreement but shall not thereby waive any right to indemnity therefor as set forth in this Agreement.

(d) The Indemnifying Party shall not, except with the consent of the Indemnified Party, enter into any settlement unless such settlement (i) is entirely indemnifiable by the Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Article VII, (ii) includes as an unconditional term thereof given by the Person or Persons asserting such Third Party Claim to all Indemnified Parties of an unconditional release from all liability with respect to such Third Party Claim or consent to entry of any judgment, and (iii) does not impose any injunctive relief or other restrictions of any kind or nature on any Indemnified Party or any admission of wrongdoing.

(e) The Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with each other in all reasonable respects in connection with the defense of any Third Party Claim, including making available records relating to such Third Party Claim and furnishing, without expense to the Indemnifying Party and/or its counsel, such employees of the Indemnified Party as may be reasonably necessary for the preparation of the defense of any such Third Party Claim or for testimony as witnesses in any proceeding relating to such Third Party Claim.

Section 8.09 Applicable Law.

(a) This Agreement and the legal relations between the parties hereto shall be governed and construed in accordance with internal laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction). Any legal dispute or suit, or action or proceeding arising out of or based upon this Agreement, or the instruments, agreements, documents and other transactions contemplated hereby may be instituted in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, or to the extent such Court does not have subject matter jurisdiction, the Superior Court of the State of Delaware, and each party irrevocably submits to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of such courts in any such dispute or suit, action or proceeding, whether in law or equity. Service of process, summons, notice or other document in accordance with the provisions set forth in Section 8.04 herein, or in such other manner as may be permitted by applicable law, shall be effective service of process for any suit, action or other proceeding brought in any such court. The parties irrevocably and unconditionally waive, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any objection to the laying of venue of any dispute or suit, action or any proceeding in such courts and irrevocably waive and agree not to plead or claim in any such court that any such dispute or suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a judgment in any such dispute may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.

(b) The parties hereby agree that mailing of process or other papers in connection with any such action or proceeding in the manner provided in Section 8.04, or in such other manner as may be permitted by law, shall be valid and sufficient service thereof and hereby waive any objections to service accomplished in the manner herein provided.

Section 8.10 Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction contained in this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority to be invalid, void, unenforceable or against its regulatory policy, (a) the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions contained in this Agreement shall remain valid and binding and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated, and this Agreement shall be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable term, provision, covenant or restriction or any portion thereof had never been contained herein and (b) the parties shall negotiate in good faith to reduce the scope, duration or area of such term, provision, covenant or restriction, to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any invalid or unenforceable term, provision, covenant or restriction with a term, provision, covenant or restriction that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term, provision, covenant or restriction and this Agreement shall be enforceable as modified.

-62-

Section 8.11 Specific Performance. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached or threatened to be breached and that an award of money damages or legal remedies would be inadequate in such event. Therefore it is accordingly agreed that each party shall be entitled to equitable relief, without proof of actual damages, including an Order for specific performance to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, or to enforce compliance with, the covenants and obligations of any other party, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity as a remedy for any such breach or threatened breach in any court of competent jurisdiction. Each party further agrees that neither the other party nor any other Person shall be required to obtain, furnish or post any bond or similar instrument in connection with or as a condition to obtaining any remedy referred to in this Section 8.11, and each party hereto (i) irrevocably waives any right it may have to require the obtaining, furnishing or posting of any such bond or similar instrument and (ii) agrees (A) not to raise any objections to the availability of the equitable remedy of specific performance to prevent or restrain breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement by Seller or the Company or, as the case may be, Purchaser, (B) to cooperate fully in any attempt by the other party in obtaining such equitable relief and (C) to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with, the covenants and obligations of Seller or the Company or, as the case may be, Purchaser under this Agreement. Each party further agrees that the only permitted objection that it may raise in response to any action for equitable relief is that it contests the existence of a breach or threatened breach of this Agreement.

Section 8.12 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, AND SHALL CAUSE ITS SUBSIDIARIES AND AFFILIATES TO WAIVE, ALL RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY.

Section 8.13 Rules of Construction. The parties hereto agree that they have been represented by counsel during the negotiation and execution of this Agreement and have participated jointly in the drafting of this Agreement and, therefore, waive the application of any Law, holding or rule of construction providing that ambiguities in an agreement or other document will be construed against the party drafting such agreement or document.

Section 8.14 Headings. The headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

Section 8.15 No Recourse. This Agreement may only be enforced against, and any claims or causes of action that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement may only be made against the entities that are expressly identified as parties hereto and no other Person that is not a party hereto shall have any Liability for any obligations or Liabilities of the parties to this Agreement or for any claim (whether (to the extent valid under applicable law) in tort, contract or otherwise) based on, in respect of, or by reason of, the transactions contemplated hereby or in respect of any oral representations made or alleged to be made in connection herewith.

Section 8.17 Parent Guaranty.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 8.17, Parent hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees as primary obligor and not merely a surety (the “Parent Guaranty”) the due, full and punctual payment and performance of all of Seller’s indemnification obligations under Article VII of this Agreement and present and future liabilities, covenants and agreements required to be observed and performed or paid or reimbursed by Seller under this Agreement in each case if and when due in accordance with this Agreement (collectively, the “Obligations”). Parent agrees that this Parent Guaranty and the Obligations are irrevocable, continuing, absolute and unconditional and shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by, and Parent hereby irrevocably waives any defenses to enforcement it may have (now or in the future) by reason of:

(i) any illegality, invalidity or unenforceability of any Obligation or this Agreement, or any Law, regulation, decree or order of any jurisdiction or any other event affecting any term of the Obligations;

(ii) any change in the time, place or manner of payment or performance of, or in any other term of the Obligations, or any rescission, waiver, release, assignment, amendment or other modification of this Agreement;

(iii) any taking, exchange, substitution, release, impairment, amendment, waiver, modification or non-perfection of any collateral or any other guaranty for the Obligations, or any manner of sale, disposition or application of proceeds of any collateral or other assets to all or part of the Obligations;

(iv) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the Obligations;

(v) any change, restructuring or termination of the corporate structure, ownership or existence of Parent or Seller or any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting Seller or its assets or any resulting restructuring, release or discharge of any Obligations, or any sale or transfer by Parent or Seller of all or any part of their respective property or assets;

(vi) any failure of Purchaser to disclose to Parent any information relating to the business, condition (financial or otherwise), operations, performance, or properties of Purchaser now or hereafter known to Purchaser, Parent waiving any duty of Purchaser to disclose such information;

(vii) the failure of any other guarantor or third party to execute or deliver this Agreement or any other guaranty or agreement, or the release or reduction of liability of Parent or any other guarantor or surety with respect to the Obligations;

(viii) the failure of Purchaser to assert any claim or demand or to exercise or enforce any right or remedy under the provisions of this Agreement or otherwise;

(ix) the existence of any claim, set-off, counterclaim, recoupment or other rights that Parent or Seller may have against Purchaser (other than a defense of payment or performance); or

-64-

(x) any other circumstance (including, without limitation, any statute of limitations), act, omission or manner of administering this Agreement or any existence of or reliance on any representation by Purchaser that might vary the risk of Parent or otherwise operate as a defense available to, or a legal or equitable discharge of, Parent.

(b) Parent hereby waives and shall not exercise any rights that it may acquire by way of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement or indemnification for any payment or performance by Parent under the Parent Guaranty until all Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid and discharged in full.

(c) Xxxxxx further acknowledges and agrees as follows:

(i) Parent hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives any right to revoke the Parent Guaranty and acknowledges that the Parent Guaranty is continuing in nature and applies to all presently existing and future Obligations, until the complete, irrevocable and indefeasible payment and satisfaction in full of the Obligations;

(ii) The Parent Guaranty is a guaranty of payment and not of collection. Purchaser shall not be obligated to enforce or exhaust its remedies against Seller or under the Agreement before proceeding to enforce the Parent Guaranty;

(iii) The Parent Guaranty is a direct guaranty and independent of the obligations of Seller under this Agreement. Purchaser may resort to Parent for payment of the Obligations whether or not Purchaser shall have resorted to any collateral therefor or shall have proceeded against Seller or any other guarantors with respect to the Obligations. Purchaser may, at Purchaser’s option, proceed against Parent and Seller, jointly and severally, or against Parent only without having obtained a judgment against Seller;

(iv) Parent hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives all suretyship defenses, promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance, presentment, demand for performance, notice of non-performance, default, acceleration, protest, notice of protest or dishonor and any other notice with respect to any of the Obligations and the Parent Guaranty and any requirement that Purchaser protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien or any property subject thereto;

(v) Parent agrees that the Parent Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time all or part of any payment of any Obligation is voided, rescinded or recovered or must otherwise be returned by Purchaser upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of Seller or otherwise; or

(vi) Each of the waivers set forth in this Section 8.17 is made with full knowledge of its significant and consequences under the circumstances the waivers are reasonable and not contrary to public policy. If any of said waivers is determined to be contrary to any applicable law or public policy, such waivers shall be effective only to the extent permitted by law.

(d) Nothing in this Section 8.17 shall modify the survival periods applicable to matters set forth in Article VII of this Agreement and any of the limitations set forth in Article VII of this Agreement, or the maximum liability of Seller as set forth in this Agreement, all of which also shall apply to, and similarly limit, Parent’s obligations.

(e) Xxxxxx has currently, and will have at the time of any Obligation hereunder and at all times thereafter during the effectiveness of this Section 8.17, the financial capacity to pay and perform such Obligations, and all funds necessary for Parent to fulfill its obligation under this Section 8.17 shall be available to Parent for so long as Obligations remain unsatisfied in full.

(f) Seller and Parent understand that Purchaser is relying on the guaranty set forth in this Section 8.17 in entering into this Agreement.

Section 8.18 Waiver of Conflicts Regarding Representation. Recognizing that Xxxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx LLP has acted as legal counsel to Seller, Parent, and the Company prior to the Closing, and that Xxxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx LLP intends to act as legal counsel to Seller and Parent after the Closing, Purchaser hereby waives and agrees to cause the Company to waive, any conflict of interest that may arise in connection with Xxxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx LLP representing Seller and Parent after the Closing, including any litigation, claim or obligation arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. Purchaser (on behalf of itself and, following the Closing, the Company) also further agrees that all communications among Xxxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx LLP, on the one hand, and Seller, Parent, the Company, or any of their respective Affiliates or Representatives, on the other hand, that relate to the negotiation, documentation and consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and that are attorney-client privileged, shall remain privileged after the Closing, and the attorney-client privilege and the expectation of client confidence as to such communications belong to Seller and may be controlled by Seller and shall not pass to or be claimed by Purchaser or the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a dispute arises between Purchaser or the Company and a third party other than Seller or Parent or any of their respective Affiliates after the Closing, Purchaser and the Company, as applicable, may assert the attorney-client privilege to prevent disclosure of privileged communications by Xxxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx LLP to such third party; provided, however, that neither Purchaser nor the Company may waive such privilege without the prior written consent of Seller. In the event that Purchaser or the Company is legally required by governmental order or otherwise to access or obtain a copy of all or a portion of such privileged communications, Purchaser shall promptly notify Seller in writing (including by making specific reference to this Section 8.18) so that Seller can seek (at its expense) a protective order and Purchaser agrees to use all commercially reasonable efforts to assist therewith.
