Xxxxxxx (“Merrell”) agrees to pay and indemnify and hold the Change in Control Buyers (as defined in the Share Purchase Agreements) harmless from and against any and all claims or past liabilities of any type or nature whatsoever of Two Moons existing or arising before the Closing of the Agreements and the Change in Control Transaction and the Reorganization Transaction (as defined in the Share Purchase Agreements), while representing that the information contained in the reports and/or registration statements of Two Moons that have been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC Reports”) is true and correct in every material respect and do not contain any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required or necessary to be stated therein that would make the statements made therein not misleading:
