(b) As of the date hereof, each holder of Company Warrants executed a warrant exercise agreement pursuant to which each such holder’s Company Warrant was exercised subject to and contingent upon the occurrence of the Merger.

2.7 Earn-Out.

(a) In addition to the Base Merger Consideration payable to the Company Members pursuant to the terms hereof, the Company Members shall be entitled to receive their respective Pro Rata Portion of the Earn-Out Payment determined pursuant to Exhibit E (the “Earn-Out Payment”) in the event the Business achieves the performance milestones described on Exhibit E during the Earn-Out Period (the “Earn-Out Milestones”).

(b) The calculation of the Earn-Out Payment shall be initially determined in good faith by Parent within seventy-five (75) days of the end of the applicable Earn-Out Period. Upon such determination, Parent shall deliver a certificate to the Representative setting forth Parent’s calculation of the Earn-Out Payment, together with all reasonable supporting documentation necessary for the Representative to confirm Parent’s calculation of the Earn-Out Payment (the “Parent Earn-Out Certificate”). Within twenty (20) Business Days following the Representative’s receipt of the Parent Earn-Out Certificate, the Representatives may deliver a written notice to Parent objecting to the Parent’s calculation of such Earn-Out Payment in the Parent Earn-Out Certificate (the “Representative Earn-Out Objection Notice”); provided that if the Representative fails to deliver a Representative Earn-Out Objection Notice, the calculation of the Earn-Out Payment set forth in the Parent Earn-Out Certificate shall be deemed final and binding on the parties. Upon the delivery of the Representative Earn-Out Objection Notice within such twenty (20) Business Day period, the Representative and the Parent shall confer in good faith for a period of up to fifteen (15) Business Days in an attempt to resolve any disagreement and any resolution by them shall be in writing and shall be final and binding. If, after such fifteen (15) Business Day period, the Parent and the Representative cannot resolve any such disagreement, then the parties shall engage the Accounting Firm to review the calculations for the Earn-Out Payment. After review of such calculations, the Accounting Firm shall promptly determine the amount of the Earn-Out Payment and such determination shall be final and binding on the parties. In conducting its review, the Accounting Firm shall consider only items in dispute, and shall base its determination solely on presentations of Parent and Representatives (i.e., no independent investigation). The fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be allocated between Parent and the Representative so that the Representative shall be responsible for that portion of the fees and expenses equal to such fees and expenses multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the aggregate dollar value of issues in dispute submitted to the Accounting Firm that are resolved in a manner further from the position submitted to the Accounting Firm by the Representative and closer to the position submitted to the Accounting Firm by Parent (as finally determined by the Accounting Firm), and the denominator of which is the total dollar value of the issues in dispute so submitted, and Parent shall be responsible for the remainder of such fees and expenses. Any portion of the Accounting Firm’s fees and expenses payable hereunder by the Representative shall be paid by the Company Members in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Portion.

(c) In the event the Earn-Out Milestones are finally determined to be satisfied in accordance with this Section 2.7, then Parent shall pay (or caused to be paid) to the Company Members (in accordance with each such Company Member’s Pro Rata Portion) the aggregate amount of the Earn-Out Payment allocated as determined pursuant to Section 2.7(a).

(d) The parties acknowledge that the payment of any Earn-Out Payment is contingent upon the future Net Revenue (as defined on Exhibit E) derived by Parent from the products and services of the Company during the applicable Earn-Out Periods.  Parent shall make or cause to be made all business decisions with respect to the operation of the Business following the Closing in good faith, and not take, or permit to be taken, any action which has the sole objective of avoiding, circumventing or minimizing the opportunity to achieve the Earn-Out Payments hereunder or the ability of the Company Members to receive the Earn-Out Payments.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, in the event of the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Business by Parent in a transaction in which this Agreement is not assigned to the purchaser in such sale transaction, Parent, in its sole discretion, shall either (i) obtain such purchaser’s commitment to assume the obligations with respect to the payment of the Earn-Out Payments if such payments become payable (subject to the conditions set forth herein and in Exhibit E, including the achievement of the Earn-Out Milestones) with respect to any Earn-Out Period ending after the closing date of such sale transaction or (ii) accelerate, subject to and contingent upon the occurrence such sale, the obligations to pay the applicable maximum Earn-Out Payment (and pay such amounts in full) for any Earn-Out Period that has not ended prior to the consummation of such sale transaction. For purposes of clarity and by way of example, if Parent sells all or substantially all of the assets of the Business following the First Earn-Out Period but before the end of the Second Earn-Out Period, there will not be any acceleration of the Earn-Out Payment obligations for the First Earn-Out Period even if the purchaser of the assets does not assume the obligations under this Agreement. Further, if the sale occurs following the Second Earn-Out Period, there will not be any acceleration of the Earn-Out Payment obligations for the First Earn-Out Period or Second Earn-Out Period even if the purchaser of the assets does not assume the obligations under this Agreement.

2.8 Closing Statement; Payments at Closing.

(c) The Escrow Amount shall be withheld at the Closing from the Base Merger Consideration payable to the Company Members in respect of Company Units pursuant to Section 2.5(a). The parties hereto agree that, for Tax reporting purposes only, Parent shall be deemed to be the owner of any cash in the Escrow Funds, and that all interest on or other taxable income, if any (“Parent Escrow Interest”), earned from the investment of such cash shall be treated for Tax purposes as earned by Parent. After the end of each calendar year and at the termination of the applicable account holding the Escrow Amounts, as applicable, Parent may provide a written direction to the Escrow Agent to distribute to Parent 50% of any Parent Interest for any such year that has become part of the Escrow Year (or any stub-year, in the event of termination of the applicable account holding period).

The fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be allocated between Parent and the Representative so that the Representative shall be responsible for that portion of the fees and expenses equal to such fees and expenses multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the aggregate dollar value of issues in dispute submitted to the Accounting Firm that are resolved in a manner further from the position submitted to the Accounting Firm by the Representative and closer to the position submitted to the Accounting Firm by Parent (as finally determined by the Accounting Firm), and the denominator of which is the total dollar value of the issues in dispute so submitted, and Parent shall be responsible for the remainder of such fees and expenses. Any portion of the Accounting Firm’s fees and expenses payable hereunder by the Representative shall be paid by the Company Members in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Portion. Additionally, in the event the Representative and the Company Members fail to pay any such fees and expenses, such fees and expenses, at the sole election of the Parent, may be paid from the Net Working Capital Escrow Funds or the Indemnification Escrow Funds. Following the final determination of the amounts subject to adjustment in accordance with this Section 2.9, the Base Merger Consideration shall be recalculated by replacing Estimated Net Working Capital, Estimated Cash, Estimated Debt and Estimated Transaction Expenses in the definition of Base Merger Consideration, with, respectively, Actual Net Working Capital, Actual Net Working Capital, Actual Debt and Actual Transaction Expenses in each case, as finally determined in accordance with this Section 2.9 (the “Final Base Merger Consideration”), subject to Section 8.1(d) and (e).

(e) Upon the final determination of Final Base Merger Consideration:

(i) if the Final Base Merger Consideration is greater than the Base Merger Consideration calculated at Closing (such surplus, the “Base Merger Consideration Surplus”), then Parent shall pay (or caused to be paid) to the Company Members in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Portion, an amount equal to such surplus;

(ii) if the Final Base Merger Consideration is less than the Base Merger Consideration calculated at the Closing (such deficit, the “Base Merger Consideration Deficit”), then such deficit shall be satisfied in accordance with Section 8.7(a).

Within ninety (90) days after the Base Merger Consideration is finally determined pursuant to Section 2.9, Parent shall provide Representative with a schedule reflecting Parent’s allocation in accordance with applicable Laws of the Base Merger Consideration (plus other relevant items) among the assets of the Company for all purposes (including Tax and financial accounting purposes). The Parent shall permit Representative to review and comment on the allocation schedule and shall consider such revisions as are reasonably requested by Representative. With respect to such allocation (as adjusted to reflect the Aggregate Merger Consideration) each party hereto shall (i) be bound by such allocation; (ii) prepare all financial statements and prepare and file all Tax Returns in accordance with such allocation; and (iii) take no position and cause its Affiliates to take no position inconsistent with such allocation (including in connection with any Tax audit, Tax review or Tax proceeding), unless in each case otherwise required pursuant to a “determination” within the meaning of Code Section 1313(a).

(f) State and Local Tax Returns. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary herein, Parent shall be permitted to prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and filed, state and local Tax Returns for the Company, including for any period ending on or before the Closing Date, to the extent Parent determines in its sole discretion that such Tax Return(s) should be filed pursuant to or otherwise in connection with any “voluntary disclosure agreement” or similar arrangement with the applicable taxing authority; provided, that such Tax Returns shall first be submitted to the Representative fifteen (15) days prior to Parent’s proposed date for filing such Tax Return, and Parent shall consider in good faith any reasonable comments that the Representative submits within ten (10) days after receipt of such Tax Returns. For the avoidance of doubt, any Taxes for any period ending on or before the Closing Date relating to such Tax Returns and any expenses incurred with respect thereto shall be deemed for all purposes of this Agreement to constitute Damages subject to indemnification pursuant to Section 8.1(g).

(g) Parent shall control all Tax Contests. In the event of any audit, examination, dispute or contest regarding Taxes (a “Tax Contest”), the Parent shall be entitled to control the defense or prosecution of such Tax Contest and for avoidance of doubt, any and all costs, fees and expenses incurred in connection therewith shall constitute Damages subject to indemnification. If the Company Securityholders would be required to indemnify the Parent with respect to any such matter pursuant to Section 8.1(g), the Representative at the sole expense of the Company Securityholders, shall have the right to reasonably participate in the Parent’s defense or prosecution of any Tax Contest. Parent shall be entitled to settle any Tax Contest without the consent of the Representative, except that the prior written consent of the Representative shall be required (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed) if such Tax Contest is solely with respect to a taxable period ending on or before the Closing Date and could not adversely affect the liability for Taxes of Buyer or the Company for any period (or portion thereof) after the Closing to any extent (including the imposition of Tax deficiencies, the reduction of asset basis or cost adjustments, the lengthening of any amortization or depreciation periods, the denial of amortization or depreciation deductions, or the reduction of loss or credit carryforwards).

(a) The representations and warranties of the Company (as qualified by the Company Disclosure Schedule), the Parent and Merger Sub set forth in this Agreement and the certificates delivered at Closing pursuant to Sections 7.2 and 7.3 shall survive the Closing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no claim may be made or suit instituted seeking indemnification pursuant to Sections 8.1(a) or 8.2 unless a written notice is provided by the Indemnified Party to the Indemnifying Party (or, following the Closing, to the Representative, in the event the Indemnifying Party is a Seller Indemnifying Party):

(v) except as set forth in Sections 8.3(a)(ii), (iii) and (iv), at any time on or prior to the date that is eighteen (18) months from the Closing Date, in the case of any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty in Articles III or IV of this Agreement (including the bring down of such representations and warranties pursuant to the certificates delivered pursuant to Sections 7.2 and 7.3);

Until the expiration date of the applicable period set forth in Section 8.3(a) and (b), no delay on the part of Parent in giving the Representative a Claim Notice shall relieve the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under this Article VIII.

8.4 Liability Limitations.

(h) Deductible. The Parent Indemnified Parties shall not be entitled to indemnification for Damages under Section 8.1(a) unless the aggregate amount of all Damages under Section 8.1(a) is in excess of $125,000, in which event the Seller Indemnifying Parties shall only be required to pay or be liable for Damages in excess of $125,000 (the “Deductible”); provided, however, that the Deductible shall not apply to Damages or claims arising out of, with respect to or by reason of any inaccuracy in or the breach of any Fundamental Representation or for fraud, intentional misrepresentation or criminal activity.

(i) Maximum Indemnification Amounts. Except in the case of Damages or claims arising out of, with respect to or by reason of any inaccuracy in or the breach of any Fundamental Representation or for fraud, intentional misrepresentation or criminal activity, the maximum amount that the Parent Indemnified Parties may recover from the Seller Indemnifying Parties in the aggregate pursuant to Section 8.1(a) shall be limited to $2,500,000 (the “Cap”). The maximum amount that the Parent Indemnified Parties may recover from the Seller Indemnifying Parties in the aggregate for Damages or claims arising out of, with respect to or by reason of any inaccuracy in or the breach of Section 3.13 (Intellectual Property and Technology) pursuant to Sections 8.1(a) shall be limited to $2,500,000 plus 88% of the amount in excess of $2,500,000 up to maximum of 50% of Gross Proceeds paid by Parent (the “Intellectual Property Cap”). The maximum amount that Parent Indemnified Parties may recover from each Seller Indemnifying Party for Damages under this Agreement or otherwise with respect to the Transactions shall be limited to the amount of proceeds received by such Company Member (including for such purposes any proceeds that would otherwise have been received by such Company Member absent any indemnification claims hereunder) (such amount with respect to each such Company Member, the “Proceeds Cap”), in each case, except with respect to any claim for fraud, intentional misrepresentation or criminal activity which shall have no cap on liability; provided, however, that with respect to the Seller Indemnifying Party’s set forth on Schedule 8.4(b) (the “Capped Parties”), in addition to his indemnification obligations hereunder, Xxxxxx X. Xxxxx (and not the Capped Parties) shall be required to indemnify the Parent Indemnified Parties for any Damages with respect to any claim for fraud, intentional misrepresentation or criminal activity in excess of the amount of proceeds received by the Capped Parties (including for such purposes any proceeds that would otherwise have been received by such Capped Parties absent any indemnification claims hereunder).

(j) Set-off. In addition to any other remedies, Parent shall be entitled to set-off or recoup any amounts due to any Indemnified Party from the Indemnifying Parties pursuant to this Agreement against any amount otherwise payable by any Indemnified Party to any of the Indemnifying Parties (including against all or any portion of the Earn-Out Payment).

(k) Duty to Mitigate Damages. Each party hereto shall (and shall cause its Affiliates to) use its commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate the Damages for which indemnification may be provided to it under this Article VIII to the extent such party is required by applicable Law to do so; provided that such duty to mitigate shall not require the Parent Indemnified Parties to contact any customers or clients of the Company for purposes of collecting sales or use taxes from such client or customer.

(l) Insurance Effect. If, prior to the settlement and payment of a claim for Damages by the Indemnifying Party, a Parent Indemnified Party receives a payment from an insurance carrier in connection with the Damages to which such claim relates, the amount of Damages incurred by a Parent Indemnified Party under this Article VIII for such claim shall be reduced by the amount of such insurance payment received, net of any costs of collection, co-pays, deductibles or increases in premiums to be paid by the Parent Indemnified Party related to the insurance carrier’s payment of such claim. If a Parent Indemnified Party receives any insurance payment in connection with any claim for Damages for which it already received payment from a Seller Indemnifying Party and the receipt and retention of such insurance payment would not result in double recover, then within thirty (30) days of receiving such insurance payment, the Parent Indemnified Party shall pay to the Escrow Agent for deposit in the Indemnification Escrow Fund, the amount of the insurance payments received to the extent of such double recover and net of any costs of collection, co-pays, deductibles or increases in premiums to be paid by the Parent Indemnified Party related to the insurance carrier’s payment of such claim. In the event the Indemnification Escrow Fund has been fully disbursed or has been closed, then within thirty (30) days of receiving such insurance payment to the extent of such double recovery, the Parent Indemnified Party shall distribute the amount of such net insurance payments to the Company Members pursuant to instructions provided by the Representative. For purposes of clarity, in the event that the aggregate Damages incurred by a Parent Indemnified Party after giving effect to the applicable reduction by the amount of any net insurance payments exceeds the aggregate amount paid to the Parent Indemnified Parties by the Seller Indemnifying Parties, the Parent Indemnified Parties shall not be required to pay such insurance payment to the Seller Indemnifying Parties.

(m) Exclusive Remedy. After the Closing, except for remedies that cannot be waived as a matter of Law, claims involving specific performance, injunctive or provisional relief or claims for fraud, intentional misrepresentation or criminal activity, indemnification pursuant to this Article VIII shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Parent Indemnified Parties in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Escrow Agreement, the Company Disclosure Schedule or any certificate, or schedule delivered in connection herewith; provided, however, that for the avoidance of doubt this provision shall not apply to any agreement, certificate or document for which indemnification is not provided pursuant to Section 8.1 (including, the Supports Agreements, the Employment Agreements, the Restrictive Covenants Agreements and the Letters of Transmittal).

(n) Limitations Related to Base Merger Consideration Adjustment. For purposes of clarity, amounts that were specifically included (the actual dollar amount and by description) in Actual Transaction Expenses, Actual Net Working Capital or Actual Debt in the calculation of Final Base Merger Consideration shall not be included in Damages under this Article VIII to the extent the Company Members have, if applicable, satisfied their obligations as part of the determination of Final Base Merger Consideration.

8.5 Third Party Claims.

(a) Notice of Third Party Claims. In the event any Indemnified Party becomes aware of a third-party claim against an Indemnified Party that such Indemnified Party reasonably believes may result in indemnification pursuant to this Article VIII (a “Third Party Claim”), an Indemnified Party shall give written notification to the Indemnifying Party (or, following the Closing, if a Seller Indemnifying Party is the Indemnifying Party, to the Representative, on behalf of the Indemnifying Parties), including notice of the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding relating to a Third Party Claim. Such notification shall include a description in reasonable detail (to the extent known by the Indemnified Party) of the facts constituting the basis for such Third Party Claim and, if known, the amount of the Damages claimed.

(b) Assumption of Defense, etc. In the event of a Third Party Claim and subject to clause (c) below, the Indemnifying Party or the Representative (on behalf of each Seller Indemnifying Party if such Persons are the Indemnifying Parties), as applicable, may elect to assume the defense of the Third Party Claim by written notice delivered to the Indemnified Party or the Representative (on behalf of each Seller Indemnifying Party if such persons are the Indemnifying Parties), as applicable, within thirty (30) calendar days after receiving the Indemnified Party’s notice pursuant to Section 8.5(a); provided that prior to the Indemnifying Party or the Representative (on behalf of each Seller Indemnifying Party if such Persons are the Indemnifying Parties), as applicable, assuming control of such defense it first (x) provide the Indemnified Party with evidence that the Indemnifying Party or the Representative (on behalf of each Seller Indemnifying Party if such Persons are the Indemnifying Parties), as applicable, will have the financial resources to defend against such claim and fulfill its indemnification obligations hereunder and (y) acknowledge in writing that it is obligated to indemnify the Indemnifying Parties against any Damages that may result from such Third Party Claim (including any Damages in excess of the Cap or any other limitations set forth herein). If the Indemnifying Party or the Representative (on behalf of each Seller Indemnifying Party if such Persons are the Indemnifying Parties), as applicable, so assumes any such defense, the Indemnifying Party or the Representative (on behalf of each Seller Indemnifying Party if such Persons are the Indemnifying Parties), as applicable, shall conduct the defense of the Third Party Claim actively and diligently. The Indemnifying Party or the Representative (on behalf of each Seller Indemnifying Party if such persons are the Indemnifying Parties), as applicable, shall not compromise or settle such Third Party Claim or consent to entry of any judgment in respect thereof without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, provided that such consent may be withheld or delayed for any reason if the compromise or settlement provides for any type of relief or remedy other than monetary damages or admits fault on the part of the Indemnified Party.

(c) Limitations on Indemnifying Party Control. In the event that the Indemnifying Party or the Representative (on behalf of each Seller Indemnifying Party if such persons are the Indemnifying Parties), as applicable, assumes the defense of the Third Party Claim in accordance with Section 8.5(b) above, the Indemnified Party may retain separate counsel and participate in the defense of the Third Party Claim, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party (it being agreed that the Indemnifying Party or the Representative (on behalf of each Seller Indemnifying Party if such Persons are the Indemnifying Parties), as applicable, will bear the reasonable fees and expenses of such separate counsel incurred prior to the date upon which the Indemnifying Party or the Representative (on behalf of each Seller Indemnifying Party if such Persons are the Indemnifying Parties), as applicable, effectively assumes control of such defense), unless the Indemnified Party shall reasonably determine that there is a material conflict of interest that cannot be waived between or among the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party or the Representative (on behalf of each Seller Indemnifying Party if such Persons are the Indemnifying Parties), as applicable, with respect to such Third Party Claim, in which case the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel will be borne by the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnifying Party will not be entitled to assume control of the defense of such claim, and will pay the reasonable fees and expenses of legal counsel retained by the Indemnified Party, if (i) the Indemnified Party reasonably believes that an adverse determination of such Third Party Claim could be materially detrimental to or materially injure the Indemnified Party’s (or its Affiliates’) reputation, business or future business prospects, (ii) the Indemnified Party reasonably believes that a conflict of interest exists or could arise which, under applicable principles of legal ethics, could prohibit a single legal counsel from representing both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party in such Third Party Claim, other than a conflict which may exist due to the underlying nature of the duty to indemnify, (iii) a court of competent jurisdiction rules that the Indemnifying Party has failed or is failing to prosecute or defend such claim, (iv) the Third Party Claim seeks non-monetary relief or involves criminal or quasi criminal allegations, (v) the Third Party Claim involves a Governmental Authority or a customer or former customer of the Company or (vi) the Third Party Claim involves potential exposure (whether monetary or otherwise, and whether in such Third Party Claim or as a result thereof) arising out of such Third Party Claim to the Indemnified Party in excess of the Indemnifying Party’s expected exposure (whether monetary or otherwise, and whether in such Third Party Claim or as a result thereof) arising out of such Third Party Claim after taking into account all of the claims and causes of action (and underlying facts and circumstances) upon which such Third Party Claim is premised and the indemnification obligations of the Indemnifying Party and limits thereon hereunder. Additionally, subject to the limitations set forth herein the Indemnifying Party or the Representative (on behalf of each Seller Indemnifying Party if such persons are the Indemnifying Parties) may control the defense of any action for which indemnification is sought, provided that the Indemnifying Party or the Representative (on behalf of each Seller Indemnifying Party if such persons are the Indemnifying Parties) agrees to comply with the following requirements in connection with the conduct of the defense: (a) Indemnifying Party or the Representative (on behalf of each Seller Indemnifying Party if such persons are the Indemnifying Parties) shall use all reasonable efforts to promptly provide the Indemnified Parties with copies of all discovery requests or subpoenas as soon as they are available to the Indemnifying Parties; (b) Indemnifying Party or the Representative (on behalf of each Seller Indemnifying Party if such persons are the Indemnifying Parties) shall provide the Indemnified Parties with copies of all pleadings prior to their filing and the Indemnified Parties shall be given the opportunity to provide comments to any such pleadings; (c) Indemnifying Party or the Representative (on behalf of each Seller Indemnifying Party if such persons are the Indemnifying Parties) shall choose defense counsel that is reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Parties; (d) Indemnifying Party or the Representative (on behalf of each Seller Indemnifying Party if such persons are the Indemnifying Parties) will keep the Indemnified Parties or its agents informed of all material information pertaining to a claim; (e) Indemnifying Party or the Representative (on behalf of each Seller Indemnifying Party if such persons are the Indemnifying Parties) shall inform the Indemnified Parties of the date of any mediation, arbitration, trial or settlement conference as soon as reasonably practicable after it receives such information; and (f) Indemnifying Party or the Representative (on behalf of each Seller Indemnifying Party if such persons are the Indemnifying Parties) shall inform the Indemnified Parties of the outcome of any mediation, arbitration, motion, trial or settlement or any other matter from which appeal rights could arise.

(d) Indemnified Party’s Control. In the event that the Indemnifying Party or the Representative (on behalf of each Seller Indemnifying Party if such Persons are the Indemnifying Parties), as applicable, fails or elects not to assume the defense of the Indemnified Party against such Third Party Claim within the time period set forth in Section 8.5(b) above that the Indemnifying Party or the Representative (on behalf of each Seller Indemnifying Party if such Persons are the Indemnifying Parties), as applicable, had the right to assume under Section 8.5(b) above, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to undertake the defense, provided that, the Indemnified Party agrees to comply with the following requirements: (a) Indemnified Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly provide the Indemnifying Party or the Representative, as applicable, with copies of all discovery requests or subpoenas as soon as they are available to the Indemnified Party; (b) Indemnified Party shall provide the Indemnifying Party or the Representative, as applicable, with copies of all pleadings and the Indemnifying Party or the Representative, as applicable, shall be given the opportunity to provide comments to any such pleadings; (c) Indemnified Party shall choose defense counsel that is satisfactory to it in its sole and absolute discretion; (d) Indemnified Party will keep the Indemnifying Party or the Representative, as applicable, or its agents reasonably informed of all material information pertaining to a claim; (e) Indemnified Party shall inform the Indemnifying Party or the Representative, as applicable, of the date of any mediation, arbitration, trial or settlement conference as soon as reasonably practicable after it receives such information; and (f) Indemnified Party shall inform as soon as reasonably practicable the Indemnifying Party or the Representative, as applicable, of the outcome of any mediation, arbitration, motion, trial or settlement or any other matter from which appeal rights could arise.

8.6 Indemnification Procedure.

(a) With respect to claims for Damages for which indemnification is believed by an Indemnified Party to be due by an Indemnifying Party under this Article VIII (including with respect to a Third Party Claim), the Indemnified Party shall provide notice of such Damages to the Indemnifying Party (or to the Representative, on behalf of each Seller Indemnifying Party if such Persons are the Indemnifying Parties) (the “Claim Notice”); provided, that no delay on the part of the Indemnified Party in notifying the Indemnifying Party or the Representative (as applicable) shall relieve such Indemnifying Party from any obligation under this Article VIII, except to the extent such delay actually materially and adversely prejudices the Indemnifying Party. Each Claim Notice shall contain the following information: (x) that Parent or another Indemnified Party has directly or indirectly incurred, paid, accrued, reserved or, believes in good faith that it may have to directly or indirectly incur, pay, accrue or reserve, Damages in an aggregate stated amount arising from such Claim (to the extent known and which amount may be the amount of Damages claimed by a third party in connection with a Third Party Claim based on alleged facts (plus an estimate of the fees and expenses to be incurred in defending such Third Party Claim), which if true, would give rise to Liability for Damages to such Indemnified Party under this Article VIII) and (y) a brief description, in reasonable detail (to the extent reasonably available), of the facts, circumstances or events giving rise to the alleged Damages.

(b) Following receipt of such Claim Notice, the Indemnifying Party (or the Representative, on behalf of each Seller Indemnifying Party if such Persons are the Indemnifying Parties) shall have thirty (30) calendar days to deliver a written notice objecting to the Indemnified Party’s claims set forth in the Claim Notice (the “Indemnification Objection Notice”). If the Indemnifying Party (or the Representative, on behalf of each Seller Indemnifying Party if such Persons are the Indemnifying Parties) fails to deliver an Indemnification Objection Notice within such period, such failure shall be an irrevocable acknowledgement and be deemed to be an agreement by the Indemnifying Parties that the Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to the full amount of the claim for Damages set forth in the Claims Notice, and the amount of such Damages shall be satisfied by the Indemnifying Parties in accordance with this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement.

(c) In the event the Indemnifying Parties (or to the Representative, on behalf of each Seller Indemnifying Party if such Persons are the Indemnifying Parties) delivers an Indemnification Objection Notice, both the Indemnified Parties and the Indemnifying Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate and arrive at a mutually acceptable resolution of such dispute within the next thirty (30) days. If a mutually acceptable resolution cannot be reached between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Parties within such thirty (30) day period, the Indemnified Parties may thereupon proceed to pursue such remedies as may be available to the Indemnified Parties on the terms and subject to the provisions of this Agreement.

8.7 Satisfaction of Claims; Escrow Matters.

(a) Any and all amounts payable for a Base Merger Consideration Deficit to the Parent pursuant to Section 2.9(e) will be paid in cash (i) first, out of the NWC Escrow Funds, (ii) second, to the extent the amount in the NWC Escrow Funds is insufficient, out of the Indemnification Escrow Funds (in the case of (i) and (ii), as applicable, the Parent and the Representative, within five (5) days following the determination of the Final Base Merger Consideration in accordance with Section 2.9, agree to direct the Escrow Agent to release such amounts), and (iii) in the event such amounts exceed the NWC Escrow Funds and the Indemnification Escrow Funds, thereafter directly by the Seller Indemnifying Parties) as herein provided in accordance with payment instructions provided by Parent.

(b) Any amounts owing from the Seller Indemnifying Parties pursuant to Section 8.1 shall first be recovered out of the Indemnification Escrow Account (to the extent such funds remain in the Indemnification Escrow Account) and, thereafter, directly from the Seller Indemnifying Parties for such party’s Pro Rata Portion as herein provided in accordance with payment instructions provided by the Parent Indemnified Party; provided, that any amounts owed to Parent for a Base Merger Consideration Deficit shall be satisfied in accordance with Section 8.7(a). Any indemnification of the Parent Indemnified Parties pursuant to this Article VIII or for other amounts payable by the Indemnifying Parties under this Agreement (including, Section 2.9(e)) shall be effected by wire transfer of immediately available funds from the Seller Indemnifying Parties) to an account designated by Parent within five (5) Business Days after the determination thereof.

(c) On the date that is eighteen (18) months from the Closing Date, the Escrow Agent shall release from the Indemnification Escrow Funds and pay to the Company Members the then-remaining Indemnification Escrow Funds, subject to applicable withholding, in accordance with each Company Member’s Pro Rata Portion; provided, however, that if Parent instructs the Escrow Agent in accordance with the Escrow Agreement to retain an amount (up to the total amount then held by the Escrow Agent in the Indemnification Escrow Fund but subject to any limitations applicable to the claims) equal to the amount of indemnity claims under Article VIII asserted prior to such date but which are not yet resolved (“Unresolved Claims”). The Escrow Funds retained for Unresolved Claims shall be released by the Escrow Agent (to the extent not utilized to pay Parent for any such claims resolved in favor of Parent) upon their resolution in accordance with Article VIII and the Escrow Agreement.

(d) On the date that the Final Base Merger Consideration is finally determined pursuant to Section 2.9 and following payment of all amounts required to be paid by the Company Members by Section 2.9, Parent and the Representative shall instruct the Escrow Agent to release the remaining NWC Escrow Funds, if any, to the Company Members pursuant to the Escrow Agreement and in accordance with such Company Member’s Pro Rata Portion.

8.8 Treatment of Indemnification Payments.

All indemnification and other payments under this Article VIII shall, to the extent permitted by Law, be treated for all income Tax purposes as adjustments to the Aggregate Merger Consideration. Neither Parent nor the Company Securityholders shall take any position on any Tax Return, or before any Governmental Authority, that is inconsistent with such treatment unless otherwise required by any applicable Law.

8.9 Representative; Fees and Expenses.

(a) For purposes of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement, each Company Securityholder shall, without any further action on the part of any such Company Securityholder, be deemed (by virtue of the adoption and approval of this Agreement and approval of the Merger) to have consented and shall agree in connection with the execution and delivery of the Letter of Transmittal or the Support Agreement at the Closing to the appointment of Xxxxxx X. Xxxxx as the representative of such Company Securityholder, as the attorney-in-fact for and on behalf of each such Company Securityholder, and the taking by the Representative of any and all actions and the making of any decisions required or permitted to be taken by them under or contemplated by this Agreement and the other documents contemplated hereby, including the exercise of the power to (i) execute this Agreement, the Escrow Agreement and other agreements, documents and certificates pursuant to such agreements, including all amendments to such agreements, and take all actions required or permitted to be taken under such agreements, (ii) authorize delivery to Parent of the Escrow Amount, or any portion thereof, in satisfaction of indemnification or other claims contemplated by this Agreement or as provided in the Escrow Agreement, (iii) agree to, negotiate, enter into settlements and compromises of and comply with orders of courts and awards of arbitrators with respect to such indemnification or other claims, (iv) resolve any indemnification or other claims, (v) receive and forward notices and communications pursuant to this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement, and (vi) take all actions necessary in the judgment of the Representative for the accomplishment of the foregoing and all of the other terms, conditions and limitations of this Agreement, the Escrow Agreement and any other agreements, documents and certificates related thereto. Xx. Xxxxx hereby accepts his appointment as the Representative. The Representative is authorized by each Company Securityholder by virtue of the adoption and approval of this Agreement and approval of the Merger to act on its behalf as required hereunder and under the Escrow Agreement. The Company Securityholders will be bound by all actions taken and documents executed by the Representative in connection with this Article VIII. Each of the Parent Indemnified Parties will be entitled to rely on any action or decision of the Representative on its behalf or on behalf of the Company Securityholders and the Company Securityholders shall release and discharge the Parent Indemnified Parties from and against any Liability arising out of or in connection with any action or decision of the Representative or the Representative’s failure to distribute any amounts received by the Representative on the Company Securityholders’ behalf to the Company Securityholders. At any time during the term of the Escrow Agreement, the Company Securityholders entitled to a majority in interest of the Escrow Funds can appoint a new Representative by written consent by sending notice and a copy of the duly executed written consent appointing such new Representative to Parent and the Escrow Agent. Such appointment will be effective upon the later of the date indicated in the consent or the date such consent is received by Parent and the Escrow Agent.

(b) The parties acknowledge that the Representative’s obligations under this Article VIII are solely as a representative of the Company Securityholders that all the obligations to indemnify the Parent Indemnified Parties under this Article VIII are the obligations of the Company Securityholders (and not the Representative except in his capacity as a Company Securityholder), and that the Representative shall have no responsibility for any expenses incurred by it in such capacity. Without limiting the foregoing, each Company Member agrees to reimburse the Representative for such Company Member’s Pro Rata Portion of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Representative in the performance of his, her or its duties hereunder.

(c) The Representative will incur no liability of any kind with respect to any action or omission by the Representative in connection with the Representative’s services as Representative pursuant to this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement, except in the event of liability directly resulting from the Representative’s fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Company Members will indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Representative from and against any and all loss, liability, damage, claim, penalty, fine, forfeiture, action, fee, cost and expense (including the fees and expenses of counsel and experts and their staffs and all expense of document location, duplication and shipment) (collectively, “Representative Losses”) arising out of or in connection with the Representative’s execution and performance of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement, in each case as such Representative Loss is suffered or incurred; provided, that in the event that any such Representative Loss is finally adjudicated to have been primarily caused by the fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Representative, the Representative will reimburse the Company Members the amount of such indemnified Representative Loss attributable to such fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct.
