9. Status of Agreements

The rights and obligations of Purchaser and Seller under this Agreement shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:

9.1 Intentionally Omitted

9.2 Survival of Representations and Warranties

The representations, warranties and covenants contained herein or in any certificate delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall survive the Closing and any investigation made by Seller or Purchaser. No claim or action for a breach or inaccuracy of the representations or warranties made herein or in any certificate delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall be brought more than twelve (12) months following the Closing Date, except for claims arising out of the representations and warranties contained in the first sentence of Section 3.1 (Organization), Section 3.4(a) (Title and Sufficiency of Assets), Section 3.13 (Brokers), the first sentence of Section 4.1 (Organization) and Section 4.4 (Brokers) (collectively, the “Specified Representations”), which claims may be brought until thirty (30) days following the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations, Section 3.22 (Tax), which claim may be brought until thirty (30) days following the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations, and Section 3.10 (Environmental), which claims may be brought until the fifth (5^th) anniversary of the date hereof. Absent fraud or willful misconduct, neither Seller nor Purchaser shall have any liability whatsoever with respect to such representations or warranties after the survival period for claims under such representation or warranty expires except for any claims of which the indemnifying party has been notified by the claiming party prior to the expiration thereof. It is understood that a claim may be made prior to such time as the exact amount thereof shall have been determined.

9.3 General Agreement to Indemnify

(a) Seller and Member, jointly and severally, on the one hand, and Purchaser, on the other hand, shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the other party hereto, any Affiliate thereof and any director, officer, employee, attorney or agent of the other party (each an “Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all claims, actions, suits, proceedings, liabilities, obligations, losses, and damages, amounts paid in settlement, interest, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees, court costs and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred in investigating, preparing or defending the foregoing) (collectively, “Losses”) incurred or suffered by any Indemnified Party to the extent that the Losses arise by reason of, or

-35-

result from (i) subject to Section 9.2, any breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty of such party contained in this Agreement, in any Collateral Agreement or in any certificate delivered pursuant hereto or thereto, or (ii) the breach by such party of any covenant or agreement of such party contained in this Agreement or in the Collateral Agreements to the extent not waived by the other party.

(b) Seller and Member, jointly and severally, further agree to indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser’ Indemnified Parties from and against any Losses incurred by such parties arising out of, resulting from, or relating to: (i) the Excluded Liabilities; (ii) any claim, demand or liability for the Taxes for which Seller is responsible pursuant to Sections 2.9 or 5.1(a); (iii) the Wabash Agreement; (iv) any claims of any Business Employee employed by Purchaser in connection with any Benefit Plan of Seller or such Business Employee’s employment with Seller accruing prior to and including the Closing Date; (v) any Encumbrances on the Purchased Assets, other than a Permitted Encumbrance; and (vi) the ownership or operation of the Purchased Assets or the Business prior to the Closing Date.

(c) Purchaser further agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Seller and Member with respect to: (i) any failure of Purchaser to discharge any of the Assumed Liabilities; (ii) any claim, demand or liability for the Taxes for which Purchaser is responsible pursuant to Sections 2.9 or 5.1(a); and (iii) any medical, health or disability claims of any Transferred Employee relating to services rendered or benefits earned after the Closing Date.

(d) Amounts payable in respect of the parties’ indemnification obligations shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price. Purchaser and Seller agree to cooperate in the preparation of a supplemental Asset Acquisition Statement as required by Section 5.3 and Treasury Reg. § 1.1060-1T(e) as a result of any adjustment to the Purchase Price pursuant to the preceding sentence. Whether or not the Indemnifying Party (as defined below) chooses to defend or prosecute any Third-Party Claim (as defined in Section 9.4(a)), both parties hereto shall cooperate in the defense or prosecution thereof and shall furnish such records, information and testimony, and attend such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials and appeals, as may be reasonably requested in connection therewith or as provided in Section 5.1.

(e) The amount of the Indemnifying Party’s liability under this Agreement shall be determined taking into account any applicable insurance proceeds actually received by, and other savings, including tax savings, that actually reduce the overall impact of the Losses upon, the Indemnified Party. The indemnification obligations of each party hereto under this Article 9 shall inure to the benefit of the directors, officers and Affiliates of the other party hereto on the same terms as are applicable to such other party.

(f) The Indemnifying Party’s liability for claims made under Section 9.3(a)(i) shall be subject to the following limitations: (i) the Indemnifying Party shall have no liability for such claims made under Section 9.3(a)(i) until the aggregate amount of the Losses incurred shall exceed $100,000 (the “Deductible”), in which case the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for all such Losses in excess of such amount, and (ii) the Indemnifying Party’s aggregate liability for all such claims made under Section 9.3(a)(i) shall not exceed $1,400,000 (the “Warranty Cap”); provided, however, claims under the Specified Representations shall not be subject to the foregoing Deductible or Warranty Cap. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, neither Party shall have liability under this Section 9.3 in excess of the Purchase Price, provided, however, that this limitation shall not apply in connection with claims arising from the intentional fraud or willful misconduct of such party.

(g) Absent fraud or willful misconduct, the indemnification provided in this Article 9 shall be the sole and exclusive remedy after the Closing Date for damages available to the parties to this Agreement for breach of any of the terms, conditions, representations or warranties contained herein or any

-36-

right, claim or action arising from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided, however, this exclusive remedy for damages does not preclude a party from bringing an action for specific performance or other equitable remedy to require a party to perform its obligations under this Agreement or any Collateral Agreement.

(h) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, no party shall be liable to the other party for special, punitive, exemplary or consequential loss or damage (including any loss of revenue or profit) arising out of this Agreement, provided, however, the foregoing shall not be construed to preclude recovery by the Indemnified Party in respect of Losses directly incurred from Third Party Claims. Both parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate their damages.

(i) The rights to indemnification under Section 9.3 shall be subject to set-off for any claim by the Indemnifying Party against any Indemnified Party, whether or not arising from the same event giving rise to such Indemnified Party’s claim for indemnification, to the extent arising out of this Agreement or any Collateral Agreements.

9.4 General Procedures for Indemnification

(a) The Indemnified Party seeking indemnification under this Agreement shall promptly notify the party against whom indemnification is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) of the assertion of any claim, or the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding by any Third Party, in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder and will give the Indemnifying Party such information with respect thereto as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request, but failure to give such notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of any liability hereunder (unless the Indemnifying Party has suffered material prejudice by such failure). The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, but not the obligation, exercisable by written notice to the Indemnified Party within ten (10) days of receipt of notice from the Indemnified Party of the commencement of or assertion of any claim, action, suit or proceeding by a Third Party in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder (a “Third-Party Claim”), to assume the defense and control, at its expense, the settlement of such Third-Party Claim that (i) involves (and continues to involve) solely money damages, or (ii) involves (and continues to involve) claims for both money damages and equitable relief against the Indemnified Party that cannot be severed, where the claims for money damages are the primary claims asserted by the Third Party and the claims for equitable relief are incidental to the claims for money damages, provided that in such notice the Indemnifying Party acknowledges responsibility for such Third Party Claim.

(b) The Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party, as the case may be, shall have the right to participate in (but not control), at its own expense, the defense of any Third-Party Claim that the other is defending, as provided in this Agreement; provided, that an Indemnified Party may, at any time when it believes in good faith that an actual conflict of interest exists between such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, obtain its own counsel in connection with such proceeding at the expense of the Indemnifying Party.

(c) The Indemnifying Party, if it has assumed the defense of any Third-Party Claim as provided in this Agreement, shall not consent to a settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any such Third-Party Claim without the Indemnified Party’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) unless such settlement or judgment relates solely to monetary damages for which the Indemnified Party is fully indemnified. The Indemnifying Party shall not, without the Indemnified Party’s prior written consent, enter into any compromise or settlement that (i) commits the Indemnified Party to take, or to forbear to take, any action, (ii) inhibits the conduct of the Business or otherwise impairs the value of the Purchased Assets, or (iii) does not provide for a complete release by such Third Party of the

-37-

Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall have the sole and exclusive right to settle any Third-Party Claim, on such terms and conditions as it deems reasonably appropriate, to the extent such Third-Party Claim involves equitable or other non-monetary relief against the Indemnified Party, and shall have the right to settle any Third-Party Claim involving money damages for which Seller has not assumed the defense pursuant to this Section 9.4 with the written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(d) In the event an Indemnified Party shall claim a right to payment pursuant to this Agreement, such Indemnified Party shall send written notice of such claim to the Indemnifying Party. Such notice shall specify in such detail as is available from the circumstances at the time the basis for such claim. As promptly as possible after the Indemnified Party has given such notice, and subject to the limitations set forth in Section 9.3, the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall establish the merits and amount of such claim by mutual agreement, or, if necessary, by arbitration in a manner reasonably determined by mutual agreement of such parties.

(e) Except for any Non-Insured Risk, Purchaser shall use diligent, commercially reasonable efforts to recover any Losses from the insurer which issued the PLL Policy before seeking indemnification from Seller. All amounts paid by Purchaser under the PLL Policy towards any deductible, self-insured retention, or other cost or expense associated with the PLL Policy which is not reimbursed by the insurer shall be applied towards the Deductible. Purchaser and Seller agree to use diligent, commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with each other regarding the pursuit of claims made under the PLL Policy, and the parties agree to promptly share information with each other including (1) providing each other with copies of all written communications, claims, reports, emails, and other documentation submitted to or received from the insurer in connection with the PLL Policy; and (2) providing each other with an opportunity to participate in any meetings or substantive phone calls regarding claims made under the PLL Policy.

9.5 Reimbursement

At the time the amount of any liability on the part of the Indemnifying Party under this Section 9 is determined (which in the case of payments to any Third Party shall be the earlier of (i) the date of such payments or (ii) the date that a court of competent jurisdiction shall enter a final judgment, order or decree (after exhaustion of appeal rights) establishing such liability), the Indemnifying Party shall within three business days upon notice from the Indemnified Party, pay to the Indemnified Party, the amount of the indemnity claim. To the extent the Indemnifying Party fails to pay the Indemnified Party within the foregoing time period, such amounts shall accrue interest at an annualized rate of prime rate plus five percent, such accrued interest payable to the Indemnified Party as well.

10. Miscellaneous Provisions
