ARTICLE 7: TAX MATTERS
7.1 Tax Treatment. The parties agree that for U.S. federal and state income tax purposes, the transaction shall be treated as the purchase of the assets of the Company by the Buyer. Except as required by this Agreement, applicable Law or a Taxing Authority pursuant to a Tax Claim, without the prior written consent of Buyer, the Seller (and, prior to the Closing, the Company) shall not, to the extent it may affect, or relate to, the Company, make, change or rescind any Tax election, amend any Tax Return or take any position on any Tax Return, take any action, omit to take any action or enter into any other transaction that would have the effect of increasing the Tax liability or reducing any Tax asset of the Buyer or the Company in respect of any Post-Closing Tax Period. Seller agrees that Buyer is to have no liability for any Tax resulting from any action of (a) Seller or (b) the Company with respect to a Pre-Closing Tax Period (other than with respect to any action taken by the Company with respect to the preparation or filing of any Buyer Prepared Tax Return) and agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Buyer (and, after the Closing Date, the Company) against any such Tax or reduction of any such Tax asset.
7.2 Tax Returns of the Seller. Except as provided in Section 7.3, the Seller shall prepare or cause to be prepared all Tax Returns required to be filed for all periods ending on or before the Closing Date with respect to the Company or its assets (“Seller Prepared Tax Returns”). All Tax Returns required to be filed pursuant to this Section 7.2 shall be filed in a manner consistent with prior practices, unless (i) otherwise required by applicable Law or (ii) the Seller concludes that there is no reasonable basis for such position. The Seller shall timely file or cause to be timely filed all such Seller Prepared Tax Returns and shall timely pay or cause to be timely paid all such Taxes due with respect to such Seller Prepared Tax Returns. The Seller will not file a consolidated U.S. federal income Tax Return as part of any affiliated group of corporations with the Company pursuant to
42
Exhibit 10.145
Section 1502 of the Code for any Pre-Closing Tax Period or any Pre-Closing Straddle Period or any portion thereof. The Seller will not file a consolidated or combined income Tax Return with the Company in any state for any Pre-Closing Tax Period or any Pre-Closing Straddle Period or any portion thereof, except to the extent such filing is required by Law or due to prior practices.
7.3 Tax Returns of the Buyer. To the extent permitted under applicable Law, the Buyer shall prepare or cause to be prepared and timely file or cause to be timely filed all Tax Returns of, if any, the Company or its assets for a Straddle Period (“Buyer Prepared Tax Returns”). All Tax Returns required to be filed pursuant to this Section 7.3 shall be filed in a manner consistent with prior practices, unless (i) otherwise required by applicable Law, (ii) the Buyer concludes that there is no reasonable basis for such position or (iii) such change will not have an adverse effect on the Seller. The Seller shall promptly pay, or cause to be promptly paid, to the Buyer the amount of such Tax for which the Seller is responsible pursuant to this Agreement for any such Buyer Prepared Tax Return, to the extent not paid or accrued at or before the Closing. The Buyer shall timely pay or cause to be timely paid all such Taxes due with respect to such Buyer Prepared Tax Returns.
7.4 Tax Refunds. The Buyer shall pay to the Seller any refunds of Taxes, net of any Taxes payable by Buyer which result from the receipt or utilization of such refund, with respect to the Company that relate to a Pre-Closing Tax Period within 10 days of the receipt or utilization of such refund. At the reasonable request of the Seller, the Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to pursue or to assist the Seller in pursuing any claims for refund of Taxes of the Company that are pending as of the Closing Date. The Seller shall pay to the Buyer any refunds of Taxes with respect to the Company that relate to any period ending after the Closing Date, including any Post-Closing Straddle Period, net of any Taxes payable by the Seller that result from the receipt of such refund. The Seller shall make payment of any such refund described in the third sentence of this Section 7.4 to the Buyer within 10 days of the receipt of such refund.
7.5 Apportionment. For purposes of this Agreement, any Taxes with respect to the assets of the Company for any Straddle Period shall be apportioned between the portion of such period up to and including the Closing Date (such portion, a “Pre-Closing Straddle Period”) and the portion of such period that begins the day after the Closing Date (such portion, a “Post-Closing Straddle Period”) based on a per diem basis. For purposes of this Section 7.5, any exemption, deduction, credit or other item with respect to the assets of the Company that is calculated on an annual basis shall be allocated to the portion of the Straddle Period in the same manner. For the avoidance of doubt, the Seller shall be liable for the proportionate amount of such Taxes that are attributable to the Pre-Closing Straddle Period, and the Buyer shall be liable for the proportionate amount of such Taxes that are attributable to the Post-Closing Straddle Period. Proration of such Taxes that are undetermined as of the Closing Date (1) shall be based on the most recently available Tax rate and valuation, giving effect to applicable exemptions, recently voted millage, change in valuation, and similar items, whether or not officially certified to the appropriate Taxing Authority as of the Closing Date, (2) shall use a 365-day year and (3) if any Tax proration is based upon an estimate at Closing, a post-Closing adjustment shall be made by cash settlement between the Buyer and the Seller within 30 days after receipt of the actual expense invoices or Tax xxxx, which adjustment obligation shall survive the Closing. The Buyer shall be responsible for any increase in Taxes or additional Taxes or assessments imposed on or with respect to the assets of the Company after the
43
Exhibit 10.145
Closing, whether by reason of the purchase and sale effected by this Agreement, or any subsequent change of ownership or use, other than Transfer Taxes.

(a) Each of the representations and warranties made by the Buyer contained in this Agreement will be true and correct in all material respects (other than the representations and warranties contained in Section 6.1 (Existence and Good Standing), Section 6.2 (Power), and Section 6.3 (Validity and Enforceability), which representations and warranties will be true and correct in all respects), in each case, as if such representations or warranties were made on and as of the date of this Agreement and as of the Closing Date (except to the extent such representations and warranties speak as of a specific date, in which case such representations and warranties will be so true and correct or so true and correct in all material respects, as the case may be, as of such specific date) and the Seller will have received a certificate attesting thereto duly executed by the Buyer. For the purposes of this Section 9.3(a), the representations and warranties of the Buyer shall not be deemed qualified by any references to materiality or to Material Adverse Effect.
(b) The Buyer will have performed, satisfied and complied with all covenants and agreements required by this Agreement and the Seller will have received a certificate attesting thereto duly executed by the Buyer.
(c) The closing deliveries set forth in Section 3.3 will have been delivered to the Seller.
ARTICLE 10: TERMINATION
10.1 Right to Terminate. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, this Agreement may be terminated and the transactions contemplated herein abandoned at any time prior to the Closing:
(a) by mutual written consent of the Buyer, on the one hand, and the Seller, on the other hand;
(b) by the Buyer or the Seller, upon written notice to the other party, if the transactions contemplated by this Agreement have not been consummated on or prior to 90 days after the date hereof or such later date, if any, as the Buyer and the Seller may agree upon in writing (the “Termination Date”); provided, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 10.1(b) shall not be available to such party if such party’s failure to perform any obligation under this Agreement has been the cause of or resulted in the failure of the Closing to occur on or before such date;
(c) by the Buyer or the Seller, upon notice to the other party, if a Governmental Authority of competent jurisdiction has issued an Order enjoining, making illegal or otherwise prohibiting the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and such Order has become final and non-appealable;
(d) by the Seller, if (i) the Buyer has breached or failed to perform any of its covenants or other agreements contained in this Agreement to be complied with by it such that the closing condition set forth in Section 9.3(b) would not be satisfied or (ii) there exists a breach of any representation or warranty of Buyer contained in this Agreement such that the closing condition set forth in Section 9.3(a) would not be satisfied, and in the case of both (i) and (ii) above, such
55
Exhibit 10.145
failure to perform or breach is not cured within five days after receipt of notice thereof from the Seller or is incapable of being cured by Buyer by the Termination Date;
(e) by Buyer, if (i) the Company or Seller have breached or failed to perform any of their respective covenants or other agreements contained in this Agreement to be complied with by them such that the closing condition set forth in Section 9.2(b) would not be satisfied or (ii) there exists a breach of any representation or warranty of the Company or the Seller contained in this Agreement such that the closing condition set forth in Section 9.2(a) would not be satisfied, and in the case of both (i) and (ii) above, such failure to perform or breach is not cured within five days after receipt of notice thereof from the Buyer or is incapable of being cured by the Company or the Seller by the Termination Date;
(f) by the Buyer if there has been any event, change, occurrence or circumstance since the date of this Agreement that has had a Material Adverse Effect; or
(g) by the Buyer, if the Seller and/or the Company shall modify Schedule 5.21(a) or Schedule 5.21(b) in accordance with Section 8.3(c).
10.2 Effect of Termination. In the event of the termination of this Agreement as provided in Section 10.1, this Agreement shall immediately become void and there shall be no liability or obligation on the part of the Buyer, the Seller, the Company, their respective officers, directors, managers, members, stockholders or Affiliates, or the Members; provided that (a) any such termination shall not relieve any party from liability for damages for any willful and material breach of this Agreement, and (b) the provisions of Sections 4.7, 5.26, 6.8 and 10.2 and Articles 1 and 12, and the Confidentiality Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and survive any termination of this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, “willful and material breach” shall mean a material breach that is a consequence of an act knowingly undertaken by the breaching party with the intent of causing a breach of this Agreement (it being acknowledged and agreed by the parties hereto that the failure to close the transactions contemplated hereunder by any party that was otherwise obligated to do so under the terms of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a willful and material breach of this Agreement).
ARTICLE 11: REMEDIES
11.1 General Indemnification Obligation.
(a) From and after the Closing, the Seller shall (subject to the limitations in Section 11.3), indemnify and hold harmless the Buyer and its officers, directors, employees, agents, stockholders and Affiliates (each, a “Buyer Indemnitee”) from and against any and all Losses arising out of or incurred with respect to (i) any inaccuracies in or any breach of any representation or warranty of the Seller or the Company contained in this Agreement (including any schedule or exhibit attached hereto) or the closing certificate delivered to the Buyer pursuant to Section 9.2(a), (ii) the breach or nonperformance of any covenant or obligation to be performed by the Seller hereunder or under any agreement executed in connection herewith, (iii) all Taxes of the Seller and the Company or relating to the business of the Seller and the Company for all Pre-Closing Tax Periods, (iv) all Taxes of any member of an affiliated, consolidated, combined or unitary group of
56
Exhibit 10.145
which the Company (or any predecessor of the Company) is or was a member on or prior to the Closing Date by reason of a liability under Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-6 or any comparable provisions of foreign, state or local Law, (v) any and all Taxes for any Pre-Closing Tax Period of any Person imposed on the Company arising under the principles of transferee or successor liability by contract or otherwise (the indemnification obligations set forth in clauses (iii), (iv) and (v), collectively, the “Pre-Closing Tax Liabilities”), and (vi) Drugs sold prior to the Closing Date, including (A) any product liability claims or Proceedings or (B) recalls, in each case, relating to or involving such Drugs. For the purposes of determining Losses under Section 11.1(a)(i), the representations and warranties of the Seller and the Company shall not be deemed qualified by any references to materiality or to Material Adverse Effect.
(b) From and after the Closing, the Buyer shall (subject to the limitations in Section 11.3) indemnify and hold harmless the Seller and the Members from and against any and all Losses based upon, arising out of or otherwise in respect of any inaccuracies in or any breach or nonperformance of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of the Buyer contained in this Agreement (including any schedule or exhibit attached hereto), the closing certificate delivered to the Seller pursuant to Section 9.3(a) or the Ancillary Agreements.
11.2 Notice and Opportunity to Defend.
(a) Notice of Asserted Liability. As soon as is reasonably practicable after the Seller, on the one hand, or a Buyer Indemnitee, on the other hand, becomes aware of any direct or third-party claim that such party has under Section 11.1 that may result in a Loss (a “Liability Claim”), such party (the “Indemnified Party”) shall give notice of such Liability Claim (a “Claims Notice”) to the other parties, as the case may be (the “Indemnifying Party”). A Claims Notice must describe the Liability Claim in reasonable detail and must indicate the amount (estimated, if necessary and to the extent feasible) of the Loss that has been or may be suffered by the Indemnified Party. No delay in or failure to give a Claims Notice by the Indemnified Party to the Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Section 11.2(a) will adversely affect any of the other rights or remedies that the Indemnified Party has under this Agreement or alter or relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party except to the extent that such delay or failure has materially prejudiced the Indemnifying Party.
(b) Opportunity to Defend. The Indemnifying Party has the right, exercisable by written notice to the Indemnified Party within 15 days after receipt of a Claims Notice from the Indemnified Party of the commencement or assertion of any Liability Claim in respect of which indemnity may be sought under this Article 11, to assume and conduct the defense of such Liability Claim in accordance with the limits set forth in this Agreement with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party and reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party, so long as the (i) Liability Claim solely seeks (and continues to seek) monetary damages that are not in excess of the amounts which the Indemnifying Party would otherwise be liable for pursuant to Article 11, (ii) the Liability Claim does not include criminal charges, (iii) there is no conflict of interest that is material to the issues involved in the claim between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party that cannot be waived, and (iv) if the Indemnifying Party is the Seller, the Liability Claim is not asserted directly by or on behalf of a Person who is a Major Customer or Major Supplier of the Company (the
57
Exhibit 10.145
conditions set forth in clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) are, collectively, the “Litigation Conditions”). In respect to clause (iv) of the previous sentence, the Indemnified Party shall use good faith efforts to consult with Xxxxxxx as to his suggestions on how to address the Liability Claim asserted by such Major Customer or Major Supplier, but the Buyer shall retain control over such Liability Claim. If the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of a Liability Claim in accordance with this Section 11.2(b), the Indemnified Party may continue to defend the Liability Claim. If the Indemnifying Party has assumed the defense of a Liability Claim as provided in this Section 11.2(b), the Indemnifying Party will not be liable for any reasonable legal expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense of the Liability Claim; provided, however, that if (A) any of the Litigation Conditions ceases to be satisfied or (B) the Indemnifying Party fails to take reasonable steps necessary to defend diligently such Liability Claim, the Indemnified Party may assume its own defense, and the Indemnifying Party will be liable for all reasonable costs or expenses paid or incurred in connection with such defense. The Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party, as the case may be, has the right to participate in (but not control), at its own expense, the defense of any Liability Claim that the other is defending as provided in this Agreement. The Indemnifying Party, if it has assumed the defense of any Liability Claim as provided in this Agreement, may not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, consent to a settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any such Liability Claim. The Indemnified Party has the right to settle any Liability Claim, the defense of which has not been assumed by the Indemnifying Party.
11.3 Survivability; Limitations.
(a) The representations and warranties of the Seller, the Company and the Buyer contained in this Agreement will survive for a period ending on the one year anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Expiration Date”); provided, however, that, subject to the succeeding sentences of this paragraph (i) the Expiration Date for any Liability Claim relating to a breach of or inaccuracy in the representations and warranties set forth in (A) the first sentence of Section 5.9 will be the date that is two years after the Closing Date, (B) Section 5.23 will be the date that is three years after the Closing Date, (C) Section 5.7 will be the date that is four years after the Closing Date, (D) Section 5.17 and Section 5.18 will be the earlier of (1) the date that is five years after the Closing Date or (2) ten days after the expiration of the applicable statutes of limitations (giving effect to any waiver, mitigation or extension thereof) and (E) Section 5.24 will be the date that is ten days after the expiration of the applicable statutes of limitations (giving effect to any waiver, mitigation or extension thereof); and (ii) there will be no Expiration Date for any Liability Claim relating to the Excluded Representations, other than Section 5.7(f), which shall be governed by Section 11.3(a)(i)(C). The respective covenants and agreements of Seller, the Company and the Buyer contained in this Agreement required to be performed or complied with prior to the Closing (each, a “Pre-Closing Covenant”) shall survive until the Expiration Date, and all other respective covenants and agreements of Seller and the Company contained in this Agreement (each, a “Post-Closing Covenant”), as well as Pre-Closing Covenants to the extent they contemplate performance following the Closing, shall survive the Closing Date hereunder indefinitely or for such lesser period of time as may be specified therein. The Expiration Date for any Liability Claim made pursuant to (x) Section 11.1(a)(vi)(A) will be the date that is four years after the Closing Date; and (y) Section 11.1(a)(vi)(B) will be the date that is three years after the Closing Date. There will be no Expiration Date for any Liability Claim relating to the Pre-Closing Tax Liabilities. Any Liability Claim pending
58
Exhibit 10.145
on any Expiration Date for which a Claims Notice has been given in accordance with Section 11.2 on or before such Expiration Date may continue to be asserted and indemnified against until finally resolved.
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article 11, the Seller will not have any liability pursuant to Section 11.1(a)(i) (except for Liability Claims relating to breaches of the Excluded Representations, breaches of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 5.24, fraud or willful misconduct for which the following limitation will not apply) until the aggregate amount of all such Losses sustained by the Buyer exceeds $1,350,000 (the “Threshold”), in which case the Seller will be liable for all such Losses that exceed the Threshold; provided, however, that the amount of Loss per Liability Claim described in a Claims Notice must exceed Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000) (the “Minimum Threshold Amount”) for any individual item, or group of items arising from the same event, in order to trigger the indemnification obligations of the Indemnifying Party relating to any Liability Claim under this Article 11.
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article 11, the Seller will have no liability pursuant to Section 11.1(a)(i) (except for Liability Claims relating to breaches of the Excluded Representations, breaches of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 5.23 or Section 5.24, fraud or willful misconduct for which the limitations in this Section 11.3 will not apply) in excess of $20,250,000.
(d) For purposes of determining the amount of any Losses subject to indemnification under this Article 11, the amount of such Losses will be determined net of the amount actually recovered by the Buyer under any insurance policies, minus the total of the cost of such recovery, and if applicable, the reasonably increased cost of premiums or deductible for the insurance policy under which the Buyer recovered. The Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to pursue full recovery under all insurance policies covering any Losses to the same extent as the Buyer would if such Losses were not subject to indemnification hereunder. The Buyer shall remit to the Seller any such insurance proceeds that are paid to the Buyer with respect to Losses for which the Buyer has been previously compensated pursuant to this Article 11 or if the Losses have not yet been determined or paid by the Seller, the Seller’s indemnification obligation in respect of the Losses shall be reduced by the aggregate amount of the insurance recovery or indemnification payments that have actually been received by Buyer.
(e) To the extent that an Indemnifying Party has discharged any claim for indemnification hereunder, the Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnified Party against any Person to the extent of the Losses that relate to such claim, except to the extent such subrogation is not permitted under the terms of any applicable Contract or under applicable Law. Any Indemnified Party shall, upon written request by the Indemnifying Party following the discharge of such claim, execute an instrument reasonably necessary to evidence such subrogation rights.
(f)
(i) Subject to Section 11.3(f)(ii), each year, within 10 business days of the date that each Indemnified Party receives confirmation that the applicable Taxing Authority has accepted such Indemnified Party’s income Tax Returns for
59
Exhibit 10.145
the preceding fiscal year, such Indemnified Party shall pay to the Indemnifying Party an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (a) the income Tax benefits actually realized by such Indemnified Party for the fiscal year that is the subject of such return, and that are attributable to any Losses for which indemnification has been received hereunder, over (b) the income Tax costs incurred by such Indemnified Party that are attributable to the accrual or receipt of such indemnification payment. Subject to Section 11.3(f)(ii), in the event that the amount described in clause (b) in the preceding sentence exceeds the amount described in clause (a) in the preceding sentence, such excess shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement as an additional amount for which indemnification is payable, and the Indemnifying Party shall pay such excess amount to the applicable Indemnified Party within 10 business days of receiving notice of such excess. For the purposes of this Section 11.3(f)(i), if a portion of any income Tax benefit or income Tax cost will be actually realized or incurred, as the case may be, by an Indemnified Party in one or more years following the first year in which any such amount described in clauses (a) or (b) above is actually realized or incurred, such portion shall be calculated on a net present value basis, assuming that (x) an income Tax benefit or the income Tax cost of any lost deduction (including a reduction in depreciation or amortization) will be actually realized or incurred at a combined federal and state statutory Tax rate equal to the combined federal and state statutory Tax rate of the Indemnified Party that will actually realize or incur such income Tax benefit or income Tax cost, as the case may be, as of the final day of the first fiscal year in which any such amount described in clauses (a) or (b) above is actually realized or incurred, and (y) the discount rate shall be equal to the Applicable Federal Rate for the period over which the income Tax benefit or income Tax cost will be actually realized or incurred, as the case may be (but not to exceed 10%). The payment of the net present value of the income Tax benefit net of the income Tax cost shall be paid in accordance with the first sentence of Section 11.3(f)(i) with the Tax Return referred to in such sentence being the Tax Return for the first year in which any of the income Tax benefit is actually realized.
(ii) In connection with substantiating any payment pursuant to Section 11.3(f)(i), the relevant Indemnified Party shall provide to the relevant Indemnifying Party a written analysis supporting the calculation of the payment in reasonable detail. The Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party a reasonable opportunity to review any such calculation, shall provide the Indemnifying Party with any documentation or information that the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request in order to permit the Indemnifying Party to review such calculation, and shall work with the Indemnifying Party in good faith to resolve any objections timely raised by the Indemnifying Party; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Indemnified Party shall not be required to provide any portions of any Tax Returns to the Indemnifying Party that are not relevant to the written analysis supporting such calculation, and in lieu of such Tax
60
Exhibit 10.145
Returns, may provide extracts of the relevant portions of such Tax Returns. In the event of a disagreement with respect to any income Tax benefit or income Tax cost that an Indemnified Party and Indemnifying Party are unable to resolve in good faith, the Arbitration Firm shall resolve such disagreement in accordance with the provisions set forth in Section 2.3(c) hereof.
(g) In the event that a party seeks indemnification with respect to a claim for alleged Losses under this Article 11 against another party and if a court of competent jurisdiction determines that such party is not entitled to indemnification hereunder with respect to such alleged Losses, then such party shall pay to such other party all fees and costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by such other party in connection with such litigation, including any appeal therefrom.
(h) Each Buyer Indemnitee shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate all Losses sustained by him, her or it. In no event shall any Buyer Indemnitee be entitled to double recovery hereunder. If any circumstance constitutes a breach of more than one representation, warranty or covenant of the Company or the Seller, the Buyer Indemnitee(s) shall only be entitled to recover once in respect of such circumstance.
(i) No claims for indemnification shall be made by the Buyer with respect to any amounts which are reflected in Closing Working Capital as liabilities or as Indebtedness and taken into account in determining the adjustment of the Purchase Price pursuant to Section 2.3.
(j) Except in the case of fraud or willful misconduct, the sole recourse and exclusive remedy after Closing of the Buyer against the Seller and Members arising out of this Agreement and any certificate delivered in connection with this Agreement, shall be to assert a claim for indemnification under the indemnification provisions of this Article 11.
(k) With regard to any Member Indemnification Claim made by any Buyer Indemnitee, if (i) (A) the Seller or the Members or any Member, as applicable, has acknowledged the Buyer’s right to indemnification for such Member Indemnification Claim (it being understood that assumption by the Seller of the defense of any third party Liability Claim will not be considered an acknowledgment of Buyer’s claim) or (B) a judicial or arbitration decision not subject to appeal has been made in favor of the Buyer with respect to such Member Indemnification Claim, and (ii) the Seller has not made the required indemnification payment to the Buyer or applicable Taxing Authority, as the case may be, in full within 30 days after such acknowledgment or decision, then a Member or the Members, as applicable, on a several (in proportion to their percentage ownership interest in the Seller as set forth on the signature page hereto) but not on a joint basis shall make such payment relating to such Member Indemnification Claim and the Buyer shall have the right to collect the Losses for any such Member Indemnification Claim directly from the Members, on a several (in proportion to their percentage ownership interest in the Seller as set forth on the signature page hereto) but not on a joint basis, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 11.3(a), Section 11.3(b) and Section 11.3(c) as if the Members were the Seller to the extent such apply relating to such Member Indemnification Claim; provided, however, that acknowledgment by a Member under Section 11.3(k)(i)(A) of the Buyer’s right to indemnification in relation to a Member Indemnification Claim shall be deemed as an acknowledgment solely by such Member, and any other Member shall not be deemed liable relating to the Buyer’s claim until such Member
61
Exhibit 10.145
acknowledges the Buyer’s right to indemnification or the conditions in Section 11.3(k)(i)(A) (as to a Seller acknowledgement only) or Section 11.3(k)(i)(B) are satisfied and Section 11.3(k)(ii) is satisfied.
(l) Any indemnification to which Buyer is entitled under this Agreement shall first be made as a payment to Buyer from the Indemnification Escrow Amount in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement. Any amounts to which Buyer is entitled under Section 2.3(e) and Section 2.3(g) this Agreement shall first be made as a payment to Buyer from the NWC Reserve Amount in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement.
(m) WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, THE BUYER SHALL NOT BE ENTITLED TO INDEMNIFICATION UNDER THIS ARTICLE 11 WITH RESPECT TO EXEMPLARY DAMAGES OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES (OTHER THAN SUCH DAMAGES RECOVERABLE BY A THIRD PARTY PURSUANT TO A THIRD PARTY CLAIM).
11.4 Release from Escrow. The Escrow Agreement will provide for the release of the Indemnification Escrow Amount then remaining (less amounts being held pending resolution of unresolved indemnifications claims as provided in the Escrow Agreement) and any interest earned on the Indemnification Escrow Amount to the Seller on the first business day after the date that is the one year anniversary of the Closing Date.
11.5 Disclosure Generally. If and to the extent any information required to be furnished in any Schedule is contained in this Agreement or in any other Schedule attached hereto, such information shall be deemed to be included in all Schedules in which the information is required to be included to the extent such disclosure is readily apparent on its face. The inclusion of any information in any Schedule attached hereto shall not be deemed to be an admission or acknowledgement by the Company or the Seller, in and of itself, that such information is material to or outside the Ordinary Course of the Business.
