The Buyer will prepare and deliver to the Sellers within 45 days after the Closing Date: (i) an unaudited consolidated balance sheet of the Corporation and the Subsidiaries as of the Closing Date (the "Closing Balance Sheet") prepared in accordance with GAAP applied consistently with the Corporation's past practices, as used in the preparation of the Financial Statements; and (ii) a statement setting forth the consolidated Working Capital of the Corporation and the Subsidiaries as of the Closing Date (the "Closing Working Capital") determined by reference to the Closing Balance Sheet (the "Working Capital Statement"), which Working Capital Statement will also be prepared in accordance with GAAP, applied consistently with the Corporation's past practices, as used in the preparation of the Financial Statements.

Except to the extent that the Sellers make a specific objection to a specific determination set forth on the Closing Balance Sheet and/or the Working Capital Statement pursuant to the Objection Notice delivered to the Buyer within the Objection Period, the Closing Balance Sheet and the Working Capital Statement will be conclusive and binding upon the parties for purposes of determining the adjustment in subsection (d) below.

(d)

If the Sellers deliver a timely Objection Notice as described in subsection (c) above, then the Sellers and the Buyer will negotiate in good faith to resolve any dispute regarding the Closing Balance Sheet and/or the Working Capital Statement. If the Sellers and the Buyer are unable to resolve all disputes regarding the Closing Balance Sheet and the Working Capital Statement on or prior to the 20th day after the Buyer's receipt of the Objection Notice, then the Sellers and the Buyer will retain an independent national firm of chartered accountants (selected either by mutual agreement or, in the absence of mutual agreement, within a further period of five Business Days, such independent national firm of chartered accountants will be selected by two such national firms, one nominated by the Sellers and the other nominated by the Buyer) (an "Independent Accounting Firm"), to resolve the dispute as soon as practicable, and in any event within 20 Business Days of its appointment. The Independent Accounting Firm will act as an expert, and not as an arbitrator, to determine, based solely on the written submissions of the parties and not by independent investigation, only the specific items under dispute by the parties. The Independent Accounting Firm will render a written report as to the resolution of the dispute and the resulting computation of the Closing Working Capital. The Closing Working Capital as determined by the Independent Accounting Firm will, absent manifest error, be conclusive and binding upon the parties and will constitute the Closing Working Capital for all purposes of this Section 2.4(d). In resolving any disputed item, the Independent Accounting Firm will be bound by the provisions of this Section 2.4(d) and may not assign a value to any item greater than the greatest value for such item claimed by any party or less than the smallest value for such item claimed by any party. The fees, costs and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm in resolving the dispute will be borne equally by the Sellers (as a group) and the Buyer, except to the extent that the Closing Working Capital, as finally determined by the Independent Accounting Firm, differs from the Closing Working Capital initially proposed by the Buyer by more than $100,000, in which case the fees, costs and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm will be borne by: (i) the Buyer if the Closing Working Capital, as finally determined, is higher than that initially proposed, or (ii) the Sellers if the Closing Working Capital, as finally determined, is lower than that initially proposed.

(e)

If the Closing Working Capital exceeds the Required Working Capital, the Buyer will pay such amount to the Sellers by wire transfer to an account designated in writing by the Seller Representative. If the Closing Working Capital is less than the Required Working Capital, the Sellers (in the proportions set out in column 4 of SCHEDULE A) will pay such amount expressed as a positive number to the Buyer by wire transfer to an account designated in writing by the Buyer (the “Price Reduction”). Any payment made pursuant to this subsection (e) will be made within ten days of the final determination of the Closing Working Capital pursuant to this Section 2.4 and will be deemed to be an adjustment to the Purchase Price. Any payment by the Sellers made pursuant to this Section 2.4(e) will not be subject to any maximum liability or de minimus threshold as set out in Section 7.4 hereof. Notwithstanding the provision herein for a Price Reduction, the parties acknowledge that Sellers are obligated to maintain the Required Working Capital at the Closing, and any failure of Sellers to so maintain Required Working Capital will be a default under Section 5.2(d), which may entitle Buyer not to consummate the Closing and terminate the Agreement, and the existence of the Price Reduction provision will not be construed as an amendment or waiver of Sections 5.2(d) or 6.1(h). If the Sellers fail to maintain the Required Working Capital at the Closing, and Buyer elects in its sole discretion to consummate the Closing, then the Price Reduction shall be applied to reduce the Purchase Price.

(f)

For purposes of complying with the terms set forth herein, each party will cooperate with and promptly make available to the other party and its auditors and representatives all information, records, data and supporting papers reasonably relevant to the preparation of the Closing Balance Sheet, the Objection Notice and any adjustment thereto being disputed and the resolution of any disputes thereunder. The Buyer will cause the Corporation and the Subsidiaries to permit the Sellers and their representatives access to such Corporation's and the Subsidiaries' books and records, facilities and personnel, as may be reasonably required (upon reasonable advance notice) in connection with the Sellers' analysis of the Closing Balance Sheet and their preparation of any Objection Notice and any adjustment thereto being disputed and the resolution of any disputes thereunder.


(g)	The Sellers agree that the Holdback shall not be consumed in the event of any obligation of the Sellers to pay under Section 2.4(e) and similarly the provisions of Section 7.4 shall not apply.

11.	Taxes.

(a)

The Buyer will cause each of the Corporation, the Subsidiaries and each Holdco to prepare and file Tax returns for all taxation years or periods ending on or prior to the Closing Date on a timely basis. The Seller Representative will have the opportunity to review such returns before they are filed. Such returns will be prepared consistent with prior practice, except where otherwise required under Applicable Law. The Buyer will cooperate with the Seller Representative to effect such filings on a timely basis. The Buyer will cause the Corporation, Holdcos and the Subsidiaries to remit any Taxes shown as owing on such Tax returns in a timely manner.

(b)

The Buyer will provide notice to the Seller Representative of any inquiries made by, discussions with or representations or submissions proposed to be made to any taxation authority to the extent that the subject matter thereof relates to representations, covenants or obligations of the Sellers hereunder or could reasonably give rise to a right of indemnity hereunder. The Buyer will forthwith advise the Seller Representative of the substance of any such inquiries or discussions and provide the Seller Representative with copies of any written communications from any taxation authority relating to such inquiries or discussions. The Buyer will provide the Seller Representative a reasonable opportunity

to comment on any such representations or submissions and to attend any meeting with any such taxation authority with respect to such matters.

(c)

The Buyer will provide the reasonable assistance of the employees or personnel of the Buyer, Corporation, the Subsidiaries and the accounting and legal and other representatives and advisors of the Buyer, the Corporation and the Subsidiaries and otherwise take such reasonable steps to cooperate with the Seller Representative and render all reasonable assistance, as the Seller Representative may reasonably request (including, to the extent requested by the Seller Representative, dealing directly with any taxation authority in relation to audits, inquiries, discussions or disputes), with respect to all matters relating to any inquiries, discussions or disputes where the subject matter thereof relates to representations, covenants or obligations of the Sellers hereunder or could reasonably be expected to give rise to a right of indemnity hereunder.

(d)

The Buyer will, and will cause the Corporation, Holdcos and Subsidiaries to, upon reasonable request of the Seller Representative, use all reasonable commercial efforts to take reasonable steps, including obtaining any certificate or other document from, or effect any filing with, any taxation authority as may be considered desirable to mitigate, reduce or eliminate any Taxes that could be imposed on the Corporation, Holdcos or Subsidiaries and that could reasonably give rise to a right of indemnity hereunder, provided that the Buyer and the Corporation will not be required to expend more than nominal amounts of money to effect same, unless their reasonable costs of doing so are reimbursed by the Sellers.

12.Working Capital Certificate. The Sellers will cause the Corporation to provide the Buyer with one unaudited Working Capital statement within ten Business Days after receipt of a written request from the Buyer (the “Certificate Date”) (provided that such request is delivered more than ten Business Days before Closing), such statement to be in keeping with the format set out in SCHEDULE F and certified by the Seller Representative as being true and complete to the Knowledge of the Sellers and prepared in accordance with GAAP, applied consistently with the Corporation's past practices as used in its preparation of Financial Statements (the “Working Capital Certificate”). Where the request is made before the 15th day of the month, the Working Capital Certificate will be current as of the close of business on the last Business Day of the second month preceding the Certificate Date. Where the request is made after the 15th day of the month the Working Capital Certificate will be current as of the close of business on the last Business Day of the month immediately preceding the Certificate Date.


13.	Accounts Receivable

(a)

The Buyer will cause the Corporation and the Subsidiaries to take commercially reasonable efforts to collect accounts receivable which were outstanding as of the Closing Date and included in the Working Capital Statement (“Existing Accounts”), which efforts will be deemed not to include judicial action or legal demand. After 120 days following Closing, the Seller Representative may participate in the Corporation's collections efforts with respect to Existing Accounts then outstanding and subject to this Section 5.13. Such participation may include contacting customers directly, and the Buyer will cause the Corporation and the Subsidiaries to cooperate with the Seller Representative by providing information to enable the Seller Representative to participate in the collection efforts, including the details of any outstanding Existing Accounts, and the name and contact information for each applicable customer.

(b)

If the Buyer creates additional accounts receivable from an account debtor who is also an account debtor under certain Existing Accounts after the Closing Date (“New Accounts”), and such account debtor makes only partial payment of its obligations in respect of the New Accounts and the Existing Accounts, such partial payments will be allocated to payment of the New Accounts or Existing Accounts as such account debtor designates in writing with its payments. If the account debtor does not make any such designation, then for the purpose of this section, such payments will be applied on a first-issued, first-paid basis. For any account debtor in bankruptcy proceedings, such payments will be allocated as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.

(c)

During the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the 180th day following Closing (the “Review Date”), the Buyer will provide the Seller Representative with a report within five Business Days after the end of each month listing all Existing Accounts and showing in detail any payment history as well as, in reasonable detail, a description of collection efforts. After the Review Date, the Buyer will provide the Seller Representative with such a report within five Business Days after the end of each month only in respect of Existing Accounts for which the Buyer received a reimbursement for an AR Shortfall in accordance with this Section 5.13 until the earlier of: (a) the date on which the parties agree not to take any further collection proceedings in respect of such accounts; or (b) the

date on which collection of the accounts becomes statute barred pursuant to applicable limitations legislation.

(d)

The Buyer will produce a statement current to the Review Date (the “AR Statement”) listing all Existing Accounts and identifying all amounts collected with respect to such Existing Accounts and any collections of other accounts receivable issued prior to Closing which were written off prior to Closing and not included in the Working Capital Statement (“Other Pre-Closing Collections”), which AR Statement will include a calculation showing, as applicable, either:

(i)

the amount by which the outstanding Existing Accounts exceeds the aggregate of the reserve referred to in Section 3.1(u) and any Other Pre-Closing Collections (as such amounts may be adjusted pursuant to the dispute resolution proceedings described below) (“AR Shortfall”); provided that, in respect of Existing Accounts which remain outstanding on the Review Date because of a customer setting off obligations relating to its dealings with the Corporation or the Subsidiaries after closing, the amount of any such set off will be excluded from the amount of such Existing Account outstanding on the Review Date; or


(ii)	the amount by which the aggregate of the reserve referred to in Section 3.1(u) and any Other Pre-Closing Collections exceeds the outstanding Existing Accounts (as such amounts may be adjusted pursuant to the dispute resolution proceedings described below) (“AR Surplus”).

(e)

The Buyer will deliver such AR Statement to the Seller Representative on or before the fifth day of the month following the Review Date. Within ten Business Days after receipt of the AR Statement, the Seller Representative will either: confirm the calculation of AR Shortfall or AR Surplus, as applicable; or dispute the calculation of AR Shortfall or AR Surplus, as applicable, setting out in reasonable detail the Seller Representative's objections to the calculation. If the Seller Representative disputes the AR Shortfall, the process for dispute resolution in Section 2.4(d) will apply mutatis mutandis.

(f)

Upon confirmation of an AR Shortfall pursuant to (e), above, the Sellers will pay 50% of the AR Shortfall (“Indemnification Amount”) to the Buyer as follows: the Buyer will be entitled to withdraw the lesser of the Indemnification Amount and the remaining balance of the Holdback within two days of notice to the Escrow Agent to the Buyer, and the Sellers will pay any remaining outstanding portion of the Indemnification Amount to the Buyer within five Business Days of receipt of a written request from the Buyer. Upon confirmation of an AR Surplus pursuant to (e), above, the Buyer will pay 50% of the AR Surplus to the Sellers within five Business Days of receipt of a written request from the Seller Representative.


(g)	In the event of a confirmed AR Shortfall the Sellers will have the right to pay 50% of any third party costs incurred to pursue collection of accounts after the Review Date and in such event any collections made net of expenses will be shared.


(h)	The Sellers will have the right, upon reasonable notice and during business hours, to designate representatives to audit the financial records of the Corporation and the Subsidiaries to confirm compliance with this Section 5.13.


(i)	Several sample calculations based on the provisions of this Section are set out at SCHEDULE W for illustrative purposes.

14.Environmental.


(a)	The parties will jointly engage WESA to perform and complete as soon as reasonably practicable the Additional Environmental Diligence and provide a report (“WESA Report”) to the parties. If, in the course of conducting the Additional Environmental Diligence, WESA identifies:


(i)	the presence of any contamination that, if brought to the attention of the Ministry of the Environment, would result in the issuance of a remediation order against the Corporation excluding, for certainty, orders arising due to the absence of an environmental compliance approval (“MOE Event”);


(ii)	the presence of contamination that has migrated, is, or may imminently be, migrating off of the Owned Real Property at a level in excess of applicable standard from the “Soil, Ground Water and Sediment Standards for Use under Part XV.1 of the Environmental Protection Act” published by the Ministry of the Environment and dated April 15, 2011 (“Migration Event”); or


(iii)	the presence of any contamination (other than those parameters excluded by the public health unit) exceeding the Ontario Drinking Water Quality Standards in a groundwater aquifer that is used for drinking water within 250 metres of the boundary of the Owned Real Property (“Water Event”);

then the parties will direct WESA to provide its reasonable estimate of the cost of remediating such condition, in the case of an MOE Event, such that the Ministry of Environment would not issue a

remediation order, and in the case of an Environmental Event, to the applicable standard described above, and include such estimate in the WESA Report.


(b)	If the WESA Report identifies one or more MOE Events with an aggregate estimated remediation cost of $1,000,000 or less, then the Closing Working Capital will be deemed to be reduced by an amount equal to such aggregate estimated remediation cost.


(c)	If the WESA Report identifies one or more Migration Events or Water Events (together, “Environmental Events”) and the aggregate estimated remediation cost for such events is greater than $1,000,000 but less than $2,000,000, then the Closing Working Capital will be deemed to be reduced by an amount equal to the amount by which the estimated remediation cost exceeds $1,000,000.


(d)	For the purpose of this section, if the estimated cost of remediation specified in the WESA is a range, the parties will use the median of such range as the estimated remediation cost.


(e)	All costs incurred in connection with the WESA Report will be shared and paid 50% by the Buyer and 50% by the Sellers.

Part7

SURVIVAL AND INDEMNITY

1.Survival of Representations and Warranties. The representations and warranties of the Sellers in this Agreement will survive Closing and the payment of the Purchase Price and will continue in full force and effect for a period of 18 months from the Closing Date: (i) except that the representations and warranties of the Sellers with respect to Taxes contained in Sections 3.1(h)(xiii), 3.1(oo), 3.1(pp), 3.1(qq) and 3.1(rr) will remain in full force and effect for a period of 90 days after the later of: (A) the last date on which an assessment or reassessment for Taxes under Applicable Law imposing Taxes can be made against the Relevant Holdco, Corporation or the Subsidiaries, as applicable, in respect of the period up to the Closing Date; and (B) the date on which the period for an appeal in respect of an assessment, reassessment or other determination of the Taxes for which the Relevant Holdco, Corporation or the Subsidiaries, as applicable, is liable, or in respect of a decision of a court or other Governmental Authority in respect of such Taxes expires without an appeal having been lodged; and (ii) except that the representations and warranties of the Sellers in Sections 3.1(d), 3.1(e), 3.1(h), 3.1(j) and 3.1(k) (together, “Fundamental Representations”) will survive indefinitely; and (iii) except that the representations and warranties of the Sellers in Section 3.1(nn) will survive for a period of three years from the Closing Date; and (iv) except that there will be no time limit for the Buyer to make a claim in respect of fraud.

Indemnification of Buyer. The Sellers severally, and not jointly unless otherwise expressly indicated, covenant and agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Corporation, the Buyer, their Affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents from and against any Damages (including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees) suffered or incurred as a result of, or arising out of:


(a)	any assessment or reassessment for Taxes for any period up to and including the Closing Date for which no adequate reserve has been provided for and disclosed in the Financial Statements or Interim

Financial Statements or in the case of a Seller's Relevant Holdco, the applicable Holdco Financial Statements;


(b)	any of the representations or warranties of the Sellers in this Agreement being untrue or incorrect; or


(c)	a breach of any covenant or obligation made in this Agreement by any Seller;

(which Damages are collectively referred to as “Buyer's Losses”).


3.	Indemnification of Sellers. The Buyer covenants and agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Sellers, their Affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents from and against any Damages (including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees) suffered or incurred as a result of, or arising out of:


(a)	any of the representations or warranties of the Buyer in this Agreement being untrue or incorrect; or


(b)	a breach of any covenant or obligation made in this Agreement by the Buyer;

(which Damages are collectively referred to as “Sellers' Losses”).


4.	Limitations on Sellers' Liability. The Sellers will not be liable under the indemnity provision in Section 7.2 in respect of any claim unless:


(a)	written notice of the claim providing reasonable details of the alleged Buyer's Losses has been provided to the Seller Representative on or before the expiry dates specified in Section 7.1; and

(b)

the aggregate of the Buyer's Losses exceeds the sum of $1,000,000 (in which event, the Sellers will only be liable for the aggregate amount of such Buyer's Losses in excess of such amount) provided that to the extent that any Buyer's Losses are based on fraud or on any breach of the Fundamental Representations, Section 3.1(u) or that any AR Shortfall under Section 5.13 arises, the foregoing de minimus threshold will not apply.

The aggregate liability of the Sellers under this Agreement will not in any circumstances exceed: (i) for Buyer's Losses arising out of a breach of Fundamental Representations, the Purchase Price, and (ii) for any other Buyer's Losses, 10% of the Purchase Price, except to the extent that such Buyer's Losses arise from fraud, Section 3.1(u) or in the event and to the extent of any AR Shortfall under Section 5.13, in which case no maximum threshold will apply. For purposes of determining whether minimum or maximum indemnifiable Buyer Losses have occurred, any misrepresentation or warranty that is qualified in scope as to materiality, Material Adverse Change or similar qualifications will be deemed to be made or given without such qualification, except where any such representation or warranty requires disclosure of lists or items of a material nature or above a specified threshold. The Buyer will not be entitled to make a claim for indemnification based on breach of the representations and warranties of the Sellers in Section 3.1(nn) for matters identified in the WESA Report which are the subject of a deemed reduction of the Closing Working Capital.


5.	Limitations on Buyer's Liability. The Buyer will not be liable under the indemnity provision in Section 7.3 in respect of any claim unless written notice of the claim providing reasonable details of the alleged Sellers' Losses has been provided to the Buyer within 18 months after the Closing Date, except in respect of a claim arising out of the Buyer's breach of Section 5.10.

No Double Recovery. No party will be entitled to double recovery for any Damages even though they may have resulted from the breach of more than one of the representations, warranties, agreements and covenants made by another party in this Agreement. The amount of any Buyer's Losses or Sellers' Losses, as applicable, will be: (i) increased to take into account any net Tax cost incurred by the Indemnified Party arising out of the receipt of the indemnity payments hereunder; (ii) reduced to take account of any Tax benefit realizable by the Indemnified Party arising out of the incurrence or payment of any such Buyer's Losses or Sellers' Losses, as applicable.


7.	Eligible Damages. No Party will be liable for any special, indirect, incidental, consequential, punitive or aggravated Damages, including Damages for loss of profits and lost business opportunities.

Awareness of Buyer. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if on the Closing Date an Indemnified Party knows of any information that would cause one or more of the representations and warranties made by any Indemnifying Party in this Agreement to be inaccurate, the Indemnified Party will have no right or remedy after the Closing with respect to such inaccuracy and will be deemed to have waived its rights to indemnification in respect thereof.

Exclusive Remedy. The rights of indemnity set forth in this Part 7 are, from and after Closing, the sole and exclusive remedy of each party in respect of any misrepresentation, incorrectness in or breach of any representation or warranty, or breach of covenant, by the another party under this Agreement. Accordingly, the parties waive, from and after the Closing, any and all rights, remedies and claims that one party may have against another, whether at law, under any statute or in equity (including claims for contribution or other rights of recovery, claims for breach of contract, breach of representation and warranty, negligent misrepresentation and all claims for breach of duty), or otherwise, directly or indirectly, relating to the provisions of this Agreement

or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement other than as expressly provided for in this Part 7 and other than those arising with respect to any fraud. The parties agree that if a claim for indemnity is made by one party in accordance with Sections 7.2 or 7.3, as the case may be, and there has been a refusal by another party to make payment or otherwise provide satisfaction in respect of such indemnity, then a legal proceeding is the appropriate means to seek a remedy for such refusal. This Section 7.9 will remain in full force and effect in all circumstances and will not be terminated by any breach (fundamental, negligent or otherwise) by any party of its representations, warranties or covenants under this Agreement or under any agreement or document delivered pursuant to this Agreement or by any termination or rescission of this Agreement.


10.	Duty to Mitigate. Nothing in this Agreement will in any way restrict or limit the general obligation at law of a party to mitigate any Damages which it may suffer or incur by reason of the breach by the another party of any representation, warranty or covenant of that other party under this Agreement.


11.	Agency for Non-Parties. Each party hereby accepts each indemnity in favour of each of its Indemnified Parties who are not parties as agent and trustee of that Indemnified Party. Each party may enforce an indemnity in favour of any of that party's Indemnified Parties on behalf of each such Indemnified Party.

12.

Notice of Claim. If any of the Sellers or the Buyer become aware of any act, omission or state of facts that may give rise to Damages in respect of which a right of indemnification is provided for under this Part 7, that party will promptly give written notice thereof (a “Notice of Claim”) to the other parties. The Notice of Claim will specify whether the potential Damages arise as a result of a claim by a Person against that party (a “Third Party Claim”) or whether the potential Damages do not so arise (a “Direct Claim”), and will also specify with reasonable particularity (to the extent that the information is available) the factual basis for the Direct Claim or Third Party Claim, as the case may be, and the amount of the potential Damages arising therefrom, if known.

13.

Direct Claims. In the case of a Direct Claim, the Indemnifying Party will have 60 days from receipt of a Notice of Claim in respect thereof within which to make such investigation as the Indemnifying Party considers necessary or desirable. For the purpose of such investigation, the Indemnified Party will make available to the Indemnifying Party the information relied upon by the Indemnified Party to substantiate its right to be indemnified under this Part 7, together with all such other information as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request. If the Parties fail to agree at or before the expiration of such 60 day period (or any mutually agreed upon extension thereof), the Indemnified Party will be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to it.


14.	Third Party Claims. In the case of a Third Party Claim, the provisions in the following paragraphs of this Section 7.14 apply.


(a)	Rights of Indemnifying Party. The Indemnifying Party will have the right, at its expense, to participate in but not control the negotiation, settlement or defence of the Third Party Claim, which control will rest at all times with the Indemnified Party, unless the Indemnifying Party:


(i)	irrevocably acknowledges in writing complete responsibility for, and agrees to indemnify the Indemnified Party in respect of, the Third Party Claim; and


(ii)	furnishes evidence to the Indemnified Party which is satisfactory to the Indemnified Party of its financial ability to indemnify the Indemnified Party;

in which case the Indemnifying Party may assume such control at its expense through counsel of its choice.

(b)

Respective Rights on Indemnifying Party's Assumption of Control. If the Indemnifying Party elects to assume control as contemplated in Section 7.14(a), the Indemnifying Party will reimburse the Indemnified Party for all of the Indemnified Party's out-of-pocket expenses incurred as a result of such participation or assumption up to the date of the Indemnifying Party's election. The Indemnified Party will continue to have the right to participate in the negotiation, settlement or defence of such Third Party Claim and to retain counsel to act on its behalf, provided that the fees and disbursements of such counsel will be paid by the Indemnified Party unless the Indemnifying Party consents to the retention of such counsel at its expense or unless the named parties to any action or proceeding include both the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party and a representation of both the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to the actual or potential differing interests between them (such as the availability of different defences), in which case the fees and disbursements of such counsel will be paid by the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnified Party will co-operate with the Indemnifying Party so as to permit the Indemnifying Party to conduct such negotiation, settlement and defence and for this purpose will preserve all relevant documents in relation to the Third Party Claim, allow the Indemnifying Party access on reasonable notice to inspect and take copies of all such documents and require its personnel to provide such statements as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably require and to attend and give evidence at any trial or hearing in respect of the Third Party Claim.

(c)

Lack of Reasonable Diligence. If, having elected to assume control of the negotiation, settlement or defence of the Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party thereafter fails to conduct such negotiation, settlement or defence with reasonable diligence, then the Indemnified Party will be entitled to assume such control and the Indemnifying Party will be bound by the results obtained by the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third Party Claim.

(d)

Other Rights of Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party fails to assume control of the defence of any Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party will have the exclusive right to contest, settle or pay the amount claimed and the Indemnifying Party will be bound by the results obtained by the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third Party Claim. Whether or not the Indemnifying Party assumes control of the negotiation, settlement or defence of any Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party will not settle any Third Party Claim without the written consent of the Indemnified Party, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

15.Several Obligations. Except in respect of Buyer's Losses arising as a result of a Seller's representations or warranties under Sections 3.1(a) through 3.1(i) being untrue or incorrect, each Seller's obligations under this Part will be limited to such Seller's proportionate share of Buyer's Losses based on the percentages set out in column 4 of SCHEDULE A. The obligations of each Seller hereunder are several, except that the obligations of each Seller within a Seller Group are joint and several with each other Seller within such Seller Group, and the obligations of each Seller Group will be limited to the aggregate portion of the Purchase Price received by such Seller Group.


16.	Purchase Price Adjustment. Any amount paid by the Buyer or the Sellers pursuant to this Part will be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for all Tax purposes.

17.

Notice/Agency. Each Seller hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxxxx (“Seller Representative”) as such Seller's attorney-in-fact and agent for the purpose of dealing with the Buyer for all matters relating to or arising out of this Agreement, and the Sellers acknowledge and agree that, as agent, Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxxxx has authority to deal with the Buyer on behalf of all Sellers in respect of any matter arising out of this Agreement. This power is irrevocable and coupled with an interest, and will not be affected by the death, incapacity, illness, dissolution or other inability to act of any Seller. Any notice or other deliverable required to be given to the Sellers under this Part will be effective if provided to Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxxxx in accordance with Section 10.2. The Seller's may designate a replacement Seller Representative from among the individual Sellers by notice in writing to the Buyer signed by all Sellers delivered to the Buyer no later than five Business Days before such designation takes effect. All Sellers agree that any notices or deliverables from the Sellers to the Buyer hereunder, including though not limited to Section 2.4, shall be provided exclusively through the Seller Representative and the Buyer may rely on the authority of the Seller Representative in that regard and further will deal exclusively with the Seller Representative and not individual Sellers.


Part8

TERMINATION

1.Termination. This Agreement may be terminated, by notice given prior to completion of the sale and purchase of the Shares herein contemplated:


(a)	by the Buyer if any of the conditions in Section 6.1 have not been satisfied as of the Closing Date or if satisfaction of such a condition is or becomes impossible (other than through the failure of the Buyer to comply with its obligations under this Agreement) and the Buyer has not waived such condition on or before the Closing Date;


(b)	by the Seller Representative if any of the conditions in Section 6.3 have not been satisfied as of the Closing Date or if satisfaction of such a condition is or becomes impossible (other than through the failure of the Sellers to comply with their obligations under this Agreement) and the Sellers have not waived such condition on or before the Closing Date;


(c)	by written agreement of the Seller Representative and the Buyer; or

2.Effect of Termination. Each party's right of termination under Section 8.1 is in addition to any other rights it may have under this Agreement or otherwise, and the exercise of a right of termination will not be an election of remedies. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 8.1, all further obligations of the parties under this Agreement will terminate, except that the obligations in Sections 5.6, 7.17, 10.2, 10.4, 10.5, 10.6 and 10.12 will survive; provided, however, that if this Agreement is terminated by a party because of a breach of a representation or warranty, covenant, obligation or other provision of this Agreement by the other party or because one or more of the conditions to the terminating party's obligations under this Agreement is not

satisfied as a result of the other party's failure to comply with its obligations under this Agreement, the terminating party's right to pursue all legal remedies with respect to such breach will survive such termination unimpaired.
