Section 5.02 Transfer Taxes. Except as provided in Section 2.02 (a)(iv) with respect to 510K permits, all transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration, value added and other such taxes and fees (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with this Agreement and the documents to be delivered hereunder shall be borne and paid by Seller when due. Seller shall, at its own expense, timely file any tax return or other document with respect to such taxes or fees (and Buyer shall cooperate with respect thereto as necessary, provided that Buyer shall not be required to pay any fees or incur out of pocket expenses in connection with such cooperation).
Section 5.03 Further Assurances. Following the Closing, each of the parties hereto shall execute and deliver such additional documents, instruments, conveyances and assurances and take such further actions as may be reasonably required to carry out the provisions hereof and give effect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the documents to be delivered hereunder, including but not limited to any documents related to (a) the Intellectual Property Assets and Licensed Intellectual Property; and (b) any Sculptura Assets and, to the extent that the parties agree, assets that relate to the Sculptura Business that should have been listed as Sculptura Assets that were omitted from Section 1.01 of the Disclosure Schedules.

Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx (“Xxxxxxx”) is an Affiliate of Buyer who entered into that certain Employment Agreement with Seller as of February 8, 2016 (the “Employment Agreement”) and that Separation Agreement and General Release dated on or around December 29, 2019 (the “Separation Agreement,” and collectively with the Employment Agreement, the “Affiliate Employment Documents”) in connection with the severance of Xxxxxxx’x employment with Seller. Pursuant to the Affiliate Employment Documents, certain restrictive covenants were placed on Xxxxxxx, as more fully set forth in the Affiliate Employment Documents (collectively, the “Restrictions”). Seller acknowledges that the Restrictions, to the extent any of the Restrictions have not expired or arguably remain still in effect, could adversely impact Buyer’s ability to fully utilize the Sculptura Assets subsequent to the Closing and damage the value to the Buyer, and Seller acknowledges further that Buyer would not enter into this Agreement in the event that the Restrictions were to remain in effect. Based upon the foregoing, Buyer and Seller agree that the Affiliate Employment Documents are hereby terminated effective as of the Closing and are no longer of any force or effect, along with any of the Restrictions that remained in effect immediately prior to such termination, and Buyer and Seller hereby agree to not bring any claim or lawsuit against each other or their Affiliates in connection with the Affiliate Employment Documents subsequent to the Closing.

The representations and warranties contained in this Agreement and all related rights to indemnification shall survive the Closing and shall expire on the 18-month anniversary of the Closing, except that the Fundamental Representations shall survive the Closing and shall expire on the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties agree that the survival periods set forth in this Section 6.01 constitute contractual statute of limitations and any claim brought by a party pursuant to this ARTICLE VI must be brought or filed prior to the expiration of the applicable survival period with respect to the provision upon which such claim is based. For the purposes of this ARTICLE VI, the “Fundamental Representations” shall mean the representations and warranties contained in Sections 3.01 (Organization, Authority, Enforceability), 3.03 (Title), 3.05 (Intellectual Property), and 3.11 (Brokers) and 4.01 (Organization, Authority, Enforceability) and 4.04 (Brokers).

(a) any inaccuracy in or breach of any of the representations or warranties of Seller contained in this Agreement or any document to be delivered hereunder;

13
Section 6.04 Indemnification Procedures. Whenever any claim shall arise for indemnification hereunder, the party entitled to indemnification (the “Indemnified Party”) shall promptly provide written notice of such claim to the other party (the “Indemnifying Party”) specifying in reasonable detail the claim and the basis for indemnification; provided, however, that any delay or failure to notify an Indemnifying Party of any claim shall not relieve it from liability except to the extent that the defense of such action is actually prejudiced by such delay or failure to notify. In connection with any claim giving rise to indemnity hereunder resulting from or arising out of any Action by a person or entity who is not a party to this Agreement (a “Third Party Claim”), the Indemnifying Party, at its sole cost and expense and upon written notice to the Indemnified Party, may assume the defense of any such Action with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of any such Action, with its counsel and at its own cost and expense, subject to the control of such Action by the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of any such Action, the Indemnified Party may, but shall not be obligated to, defend against such Action in such manner as it may deem appropriate, including, but not limited to, settling such Action, after giving notice of it to the Indemnifying Party, on such terms as the Indemnified Party may deem appropriate and no action taken by the Indemnified Party in accordance with such defense and settlement shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations herein provided with respect to any damages resulting therefrom. The Indemnifying Party shall not settle any Action without the Indemnified Party’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) unless the (i) judgment or settlement includes a complete and unconditional release of the Indemnified Party in respect of such claim, (ii) the relief is solely money damages that will be paid by the Indemnifying Party; and (iii) the settlement or judgment does not entail any admission of liability on the part of any Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall not settle any Action for which the Indemnifying Party has assumed the defense. The Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate in good faith in the conduct of the defense of such claim or litigation by a third party, including by retaining records and information that are reasonably relevant to such third party claim or litigation and providing reasonable access to each other’s relevant business records and other documents and employees.
Section 6.05 Other Indemnification Rules.
(a) No amounts shall be payable by the Seller under Section 6.02(a) unless and until the aggregate amount otherwise payable by the Seller under Section 6.02(a) exceeds $150,000 (the “Basket Amount”), in which event the Seller shall be liable for the aggregate amount of all Losses, regardless of the Basket Amount; provided, however, that the Basket Amount shall not apply to recovery for (i) any misrepresentation, inaccuracy in or breach of any Fundamental Representation, (ii) any claim relating to Fraud, or (iii) or any Losses relating to or arising from the UPenn Agreement. “Fraud” means, with respect to any Person, the intentional (and not constructive) fraud and willful breach of a representation or warranty of such Person effected by such Person making a representation or warranty contained in this Agreement (as modified by the Disclosure Schedules) with the actual (and not constructive) knowledge of such Person that the relevant statement was false when made (as opposed to the making of a representation and warranty negligently or without actual knowledge of its truthfulness) and which was made with the intention of inducing the Person to whom such statement was made (the “Recipient”) to enter into or consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and upon which Recipient has reasonably relied to its detriment. For the avoidance of doubt, “Fraud” excludes any claim for equitable fraud, promissory fraud, unfair dealings fraud, constructive fraud or any torts based on negligence.
(b) The aggregate amount payable by Seller pursuant to Section 6.02(a) shall not exceed $1,500,000 (the “Cap”); provided, however, that (i) with respect to recovery for any misrepresentation, inaccuracy in or breach of any Fundamental Representation, the Cap shall not apply and the Seller’s maximum aggregate liability shall be limited to the Purchase Price, and (ii) the Cap shall not apply to recovery for (A) any claim relating to Fraud, or (B) any Losses relating to or arising from the UPenn Agreement.
14
(c) The aggregate amount payable by Seller pursuant to Article VI shall not exceed the Purchase Price; provided, however, that such limit shall not apply to recovery for any claim relating to Fraud or any Losses relating to or arising from the UPenn Agreement.
(d) The amount of Losses subject to indemnification shall be determined after taking into account the net proceeds actually received (less the costs incurred in recovering such proceeds, including the payment of any deductibles under applicable insurance policies) by an Indemnified Party under any insurance policy or other rights of indemnification or contribution with respect to the matter giving rise to such Losses (“Proceeds”). If any Proceeds are received by an Indemnified Party after an Indemnifying Party has made a payment to such Indemnified Party pursuant to this Article VI with respect to the matter giving rise to the payment of such Proceeds, then such Indemnified Party shall promptly pay to the Indemnifying Party the amount of the Proceeds. The Indemnified Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to pursue recovery of Proceeds both before and following any indemnification payment under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, commercially reasonable efforts shall include making a claim for insurance and reasonable follow up and negotiation with the insurer, but shall not require the Indemnified Party to threaten or institute litigation to enforce the claim. The Indemnified Party will give the Indemnifying Party prompt (but in no event more than five business days) notice of receipt of any Proceeds.
(e) Losses shall not include punitive damages except to the extent actually awarded pursuant to a Third Party Claim.
Section 6.06 Tax Treatment of Indemnification Payments. All indemnification payments made by Seller under this Agreement shall be treated by the parties as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for tax purposes, unless otherwise required by law.
Section 6.07 Exclusive Remedy. Subject to Section 7.14 below, the indemnification provided in this ARTICLE VI is the sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all claims for any breach (or alleged breach) of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth in this Agreement; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the liability of any party hereto under this ARTICLE VI will be in addition to, and not exclusive of, any other liability that such party may have at law or equity based on Fraud.
