respect thereto within any applicable survival period as set forth in Section
9(a), then Buyer shall indemnify, hold harmless and defend the Company from and
against any Adverse Consequences claimed by the Company or Sellers to the extent
the same are alleged to be or have been caused by the breach.
(d) Matters Involving Third
Parties.
|
(i)
|
If
any third-party shall notify any Party (the "Indemnified
Party") with respect to any matter (a "Third-Party
Claim") which may give rise to a claim for indemnification against
any other Party (the "Indemnifying
Party") under this Section 9, then the Indemnified Party shall
promptly (and in any event within ten (10) business days after receiving
notice of the Third-Party Claim) notify each Indemnifying Party thereof in
writing; provided, however, that
failure to provide such notice on a timely basis shall not release the
Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under this Section 9 except
to the extent the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such
failure.
|
|
(ii)
|
The
Indemnifying Party will have the right at any time to assume and
thereafter conduct the defense of the Third-Party Claim with counsel of
its choice; provided, however, that
the Indemnifying Party will not consent to the entry of any judgment or
enter into any settlement with respect to the Third-Party Claim without
the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed).
|
|
(iii)
|
Unless
and until the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of the Third-Party
Claim as provided in Section 9(d)(ii) above, the Indemnified Party may
defend against the Third-Party Claim in any manner it reasonably may deem
appropriate.
|
|
(iv)
|
In
no event will the Indemnified Party consent to the entry of any judgment
or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim without
the prior written consent of each of the Indemnifying Parties (not to be
unreasonably withheld or delayed).
|
|
(v)
|
In
the event that any Party suffers damage or loss in respect of which it has
or makes a valid claim against another Party for indemnification, where it
is otherwise appropriate to do so, it must take reasonable steps to
mitigate its loss or damage.
|
(e) Offset
Rights. Buyer shall be entitled to offset any Adverse
Consequences which results in a liability from events which the Seller had
knowledge of or would reasonably have been expected to anticipate and which were
not disclosed to the Buyer , or breach of the Company’s or Sellers’
representations and warranties or covenants resulting in an actual loss or a
loss which can be reasonably estimated, against any issuances of compensation or
payments due the Sellers or the Company hereunder or under any other agreement
with Buyer.

Re: Proposed
sale to Valcom, Inc.
Dear
Members:
Per your request regarding the planned
sale of your LLC, I have reviewed the status of your LLC through the Secretary
of State in Tallahassee, Florida; have reviewed your operating agreement; and
have reviewed the Letter of Intent and the Resolution to Sell Corporate
Assets. It is my opinion that you are able to proceed with the sale
immediately, as more fully set forth below.
Faith TV, LLC is a Limited Liability
Company, duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of
the State of Florida. Paragraph 5.5 of the Operating Agreement gives
the Board of Managers the power and authority to purchase and own properties and
to conduct the business which it is presently conducting, as well as to sell the
assets and property of the Company. Although the Operating Agreement
included provisions requiring the members be given the opportunity to purchase
the interests in the Company prior to accepting outside offers, the Resolution
to Sell Corporate Assets was signed by all members, waiving that
requirement. The execution, delivery and performance of the Asset
Purchase Agreement and related documents by Seller has been duly authorized and
approved by all requisite action on the part of its Board of Members as
reflected in the Resolution to Sell Corporate Assets executed on October 20,
2008.
The Asset Purchase Agreement and
related documents are enforceable against the Seller and Members in accordance
with their terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, and other similar laws relating to or
limiting creditors’ rights generally and by equitable principles.
The execution and delivery of the Asset
Purchase Agreement and related documents do not, and the consummation of the
transactions contemplated thereby and the compliance with the terms thereof will
not, (a) violate any law, judgment, order, decree, statute, ordinance, rule or
regulation applicable to Seller or Members, or any permit, license or approval
of any Governmental Entity, (b) conflict with any provision of Seller’s
certificate of incorporation or by-laws, (c) result in any violation of, and
will not conflict with, or result in a breach of any terms of, or constitute a
default under, any mortgage, instrument or agreement to which Seller or any
Member is a party or by which Seller or any Member or any of the Purchased
Assets is bound, or create any Lien upon any of the Purchased Assets, or (d)
require any notice to, or consent, approval, order or authorization of, or the
registration, declaration or filing with, any Governmental Entity or other third
party.
| Respectfully Submitted, | |
| Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxx |
