(i) [Intentionally Left Blank]

(ii) Post-Closing Statement. Within ninety (90) days after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall procure that the Company prepares and delivers to the Sellers’ Representative and to the Purchaser a statement (the “Post-Closing Statement”) calculating the Closing Working Capital in good faith. Purchaser further shall procure that the Company provides the Sellers’ Representative, each Seller and the Accounting Referee, if any, with all information and documents they may reasonably request in connection with their review and assessment of the Post-Closing Statement and any item thereof. Unless the Sellers’ Representative and/or the Purchaser deliver a Dispute Notice (in case of notification by the Sellers’ Representative, to the Purchaser, and to the Sellers’ Representative, in case of notification by the Purchaser) within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Post-Closing Statement by the Sellers’ Representative and the Purchaser, such Post-Closing Statement shall be deemed the “Final Closing Statement,” shall be binding upon all parties, and shall not be subject to dispute or review. If the Sellers’ Representative and/or the Purchaser, acting in good faith, disagree(s) with the Post-Closing Statement, the Sellers’ Representative or the Purchaser, respectively, may, within thirty (30) days after receipt thereof by the Sellers’ Representative and the Purchaser, notify the Purchaser (in case of the Sellers’ Representative disagreeing with the Post-Closing Statement) or the Sellers’ Representative (in case of the Purchaser being in disagreement with the Post-Closing Statement) in writing (the “Dispute Notice”), which Dispute Notice shall provide reasonable detail of the nature of each disputed item on the Post-Closing Statement. The Sellers’ Representative and Purchaser shall first use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve such dispute between themselves and, if they are able to resolve such dispute, the Post-Closing Statement shall be revised to the extent necessary to reflect such resolution, shall be deemed the “Final Closing Statement” and shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties and shall not be subject to dispute or review. If the Sellers’ Representative and Purchaser are unable to resolve the dispute, however, within fifteen (15) days after receipt by the Purchaser of the Dispute Notice, the dispute shall be submitted (by way of a respective unilateral request of the Sellers’ Representative or the Purchaser, to be made to the Accounting Referee, of which the Purchaser, in case of a request by the Sellers’ Representative, or the Sellers’ Representative, in case of a request by the Purchaser, shall be notified simultaneously) to PWC (the “Accounting Referee”). In case this accounting firm rejects an appointment or does not accept an appointment within fifteen (15) days after been requested to do so, the Accounting Referee shall, upon unilateral request by the Purchaser or the Sellers’ Representative (with simultaneous notification of the Purchaser in case of a request by the Sellers’ Representative, and of the Sellers’ Representative, in case of a request by the Purchaser), be elected by the president of the Austrian Chamber of Accountants (Präsident der Xxxxxx der Wirtschaftstreuhänder Österreichs) among the Big Four (KPMG, E&Y, Deloitte). The Accounting Referee shall act as an expert and not arbiter and shall determine only those items in dispute on the Post-Closing Statement. Promptly, but no later than thirty (30) days after engagement, the Accounting Referee shall deliver a written report to the Sellers’ Representative and Purchaser as to the resolution of the disputed items and the resulting calculation of the Closing Working Capital. The Post-Closing Statement as determined by the Accounting Referee shall be deemed the “Final Closing Statement,” shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties and shall not be subject to dispute or review. The fees and expenses of the Accounting Referee in connection with the resolution of disputes pursuant to this Section 1.2(c)(ii) shall be borne in half by the Purchaser and in half by the Sellers. The Closing Working Capital set forth on the Final Closing Statement shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Final Working Capital”.

(iii) Post-Closing Adjustments Amount. The Closing Payment shall be further adjusted after the Closing as follows:

(1) If the Final Working Capital exceeds the Working Capital Threshold, then the Total Purchase Price shall be increased by the amount of such excess (the “Working Capital Surplus”);

(2) If the Final Working Capital is less than the Working Capital Threshold, then the Total Purchase Price shall be decreased by the amount of such shortfall (the “Working Capital Deficiency”);

As used herein, the “Post-Closing Adjustment Amount” means the amount equal to (i) the Working Capital Surplus, if any, minus (ii) the Working Capital Deficiency, if any.

(iv) Final Adjustment Amount.

(1) If the Post-Closing Adjustments Amount is a negative number, then within ten (10) Business Days following determination of the Post-Closing Adjustments Amount in accordance with this Section 1.2(c), each Seller shall pay to Purchaser such Seller’s Pro Rata Portion of the Post-Closing Adjustments Amount in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds.

(2) If the Post-Closing Adjustments Amount is a positive number, then within ten (10) Business Days following determination of the Post-Closing Adjustments Amount in accordance with this Section 1.2(c), the Purchaser shall pay to each Seller such Seller’s Pro Rata Portion of the Post-Closing Adjustments Amount in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds.

If any payment required under this Section 1.2(c) is not made in full within such ten (10) Business Day period, such payment will thereafter bear simple interest at the rate of 12% per annum. The reduction or increase in the Total Purchase Price resulting from the Post-Closing Adjustment Amount is referred to herein as the “Final Adjustment Amount.”

(d) Allocation and Payment. At the Closing, the Purchaser shall pay to the Escrow Agent the Closing Payment in accordance with the terms of the Trust Agreement. At the Closing, the Closing Payment shall be released to the Sellers in accordance with the terms of the Trust Agreement.

1.3 Closing. The closing of the transactions contemplated hereby (the “Closing”) shall take place after all deliveries, steps and actions set out in Sections 1.4(a) to 1.4(c) have been fulfilled, the Sellers and the Purchaser have been duly notified thereof and the closing minutes referred to in Section 1.4(d) have been executed by the Sellers and the Purchaser at the offices of Wolf Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxxxxxxx XxxX, Xxxxxxxxxxxx 0, 0000 Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxx, unless another place or time is agreed to in writing by the Purchaser and the Sellers.

mutually resolved in full and final manner prior to the lapse of the applicable extension referred to herein below, initiates an arbitration proceeding according to Section 7.12 or a court proceeding according to Section 7.13 asserting such claim by not later than the earlier of (ibx) the lapse of a twelve (12) months period after the delivery of the relevant Notice of Claim and (iby) the lapse of a six (6) months period following the fourth (4^th) anniversary of the Closing Date, then the claim thus asserted shall survive until such time as such claim is fully and finally resolved as provided herein; (ii) the representations and warranties set forth in Section 2.10 (“Tax Representations”) shall survive the Closing Date until sixty (60) days after the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations of the taxable periods to which such Tax Returns relate without regard to extensions and any liability of the Sellers with respect to such representations and warranties shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that if, (iia) at any time prior to sixty (60) days after the end of the applicable statute of limitations period any Purchaser Indemnitee (acting in good faith) delivers to the Sellers’ Representative a written notice alleging the existence of an inaccuracy in or a breach of the Tax Representations in excess of the De Minimis Amount or Threshold as set forth in Section 6.3(c) (and setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for such Purchaser Indemnitee’s belief that such an inaccuracy or breach may exist) and asserting a claim for recovery under Section 6.2 based on such alleged inaccuracy or breach and (iib) if not mutually resolved in full and final manner prior to the lapse of the applicable extension referred to herein below, initiates an arbitration proceeding according to Section 7.12 or a court proceeding according to Section 7.13 asserting such claim by not later than the earlier of (iibx) the lapse of a twelve (12) months period after the delivery of the relevant Notice of Claim and (iiby) the lapse of a six (6) months period following the sixty (60) days after the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations of the taxable periods to which such Tax Returns, then the claim thus asserted shall survive until such time as such claim is fully and finally resolved as provided herein; and (iii) the Specified Representations shall survive the Closing Date for an indefinite period of time.

(c) Purchaser Representations. All representations and warranties made by Purchaser shall survive the Closing and shall expire on the eighteen (18) month anniversary of the Closing Date, and any liability of Purchaser with respect to such representations, warranties and guarantees shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that if, at any time prior to such 18-month anniversary of the Closing Date, any Seller Indemnitee (acting in good faith) initiates an arbitration proceeding according to Section 7.12, thus asserting a claim for recovery under the representations and warranties made by Purchaser based on such alleged inaccuracy or breach thereof, then the claim thus asserted shall survive the eighteen (18) month anniversary of the Closing until such time as such claim is fully and finally resolved.

(d) Intentional Misrepresentation; Fraud, Particular Gross Negligence and Willful Misconduct. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 6.1(a) or Section 6.1(b), the limitations set forth in Sections 6.1(a) or 6.1(b) shall not apply in the case of claims based upon intentional misrepresentation or deceit, both within the meaning of Article 000 XXXX (Arglist) or fraud (Betrug) or caused by particular gross negligence (xxxxx xxxxx Fahrlässigkeit) or willful misconduct (Vorsatz) by any of the Sellers.

(e) Statutory Time Limitations. The applicability of Article 000 XXXX is hereby expressly excluded.

In the event of any breach by the Sellers of any representations, warranties, covenants or obligations under this Agreement, the parties hereto shall enter into good faith discussions with a view to agreeing within a period of two (2) weeks as to how and within what time period to remedy the breach. Subject to such agreement in writing, the Sellers shall be entitled to put the Purchaser and/or the Group Companies into the position they would have been in had the representation, warranty, covenant or obligation not been breached (restitution in kind; Naturalrestitution). In the event that restitution in kind is not possible or economically reasonable or cannot be effected within the agreed time period, the Sellers shall be obligated to indemnify the Purchaser in accordance with Sections 6.2(b) or 6.2(c), as the case may be, subject to the limitations set forth in this Article 6.

(d) Acknowledgement Regarding Damages. The Sellers acknowledge and agree that, if any Group Company suffers, incurs or otherwise becomes subject to any Damages as a result of or in connection with any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or obligation, then (without limiting any of the rights of a Group Company as a Purchaser Indemnitee) Purchaser shall also be deemed, by virtue of its ownership of the Shares, to have incurred Damages as a result of and in connection with such inaccuracy or breach.

(e) Indemnification by the Purchaser. From and after the Closing Date (but subject to Section 6.1(c)), Purchaser shall hold harmless and indemnify each Seller Indemnitee from and against, and shall compensate and reimburse each of the Seller Indemnitees for, any Damages which are directly or indirectly suffered or incurred by any of the Seller Indemnitees or to which any of the Seller Indemnitees may otherwise become subject (regardless of whether or not such Damages relate to any third-party claim) and which arise from or as a result of, or are directly or indirectly connected with any inaccuracy in any representation or breach of any representation or warranty made by the Purchaser set forth in Article 4 as if such representation and warranty had been made on and as of the Closing Date.

6.3 Limitations.

(a) Recourse to Bank Guarantee; Residual Liability

(i) General. Subject to Section 6.3(a)(ii), recourse by the Purchaser Indemnitees shall be made first, to the Bank Guarantee issued for a total amount of EUR 3,300,000 (Euro three million three hundred thousand) (the “Total Bank Guarantee Amount”) in accordance with this Section 6.3, and only after the Total Bank Guarantee Amount has been depleted or recourse to the Bank Guarantee is no longer available to the Purchaser Indemnitees, then recourse by the Purchaser Indemnitees for claims for indemnification, shall be made next, directly from the Sellers up to the amounts set forth in Section 6.3(b).

(ii) Exceptions to Bank Guarantee as First Remedy. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the limitations set forth in Section 6.3(a)(i) shall not apply (i) in the case of any intentional misrepresentation or deceit, both within the meaning of Article 870 ABGB (Arglist)

38.

or fraud (Betrug), particular gross negligence (xxxxx xxxxx Fahrlässigkeit) or willful misconduct (Vorsatz) attributable to any of the Sellers or an Affiliate of the Sellers or (ii) to a claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 6.2(b)(vi).

(iii) Except as set forth in Section 6.3(a)(v) below, recourse by the Purchaser Indemnitees to the Bank Guarantee shall only be permitted if and to the extent a claim by Purchaser Indemnitees under this Article 6 has been (i) duly asserted and (ii) either acknowledged in writing by the Sellers’ Representative or finally adjudicated by arbitration according to Section 7.12 or a court according to Section 7.13. To the extent recourse is permitted pursuant to the foregoing sentence, the Bank Guarantee shall, inter alia, (x) represent a no-recourse and abstract guarantee (abstrakter Garantievertrag) pursuant to Section 880a second sentence ABGB (and not a surety/Bürgschaft and not a joint obligation as a debtor /Mitschuldner) with an undertaking to pay the amounts due under or pursuant to the Bank Guarantee unconditionally, irrevocably, upon first demand and without raising any defences (unbedingt, unwiderruflich, über erste Aufforderung und unter Verzicht auf alle Einwendungen) and (y) contain a pay or extend clause for an additional term of six (6) months which may (also repeatedly and, in each case, at the costs of the Sellers) be invoked (with simultaneous notification of the Sellers’ Representative) by the Purchaser Indemnitees if and to the extent a claim by Purchaser Indemnitees under this Articles 6 has been (i) duly asserted but (ii) neither acknowledged by the Sellers’ Representative nor finally adjudicated by arbitration according to Section 7.12 or a court according to Section 7.13 until two (2) weeks prior to the lapse of the term of the Bank Guarantee. The Purchaser shall procure that any other Purchaser Indemnitee complies with the restrictions on recourse to the Bank Guarantee set out in this Section 6.3(a)(iii).

(iv) The Bank Guarantee may be called by the Purchaser Indemnitees for a claim by Purchaser Indemnitees under this Article 6 (other than for payment of the Lock-Up Adjustment Amount) in accordance with Section 6.3(a)(iii) hereof (i) up to an amount of EUR 1,300,000.00 (one million three hundred thousand Euro) prior to the lapse of the fifteenth Business Day following the First Anniversary, and (ii) thereafter, up to the amount equal to the Total Bank Guarantee Amount less (a) the amount of the Bank Guarantee that has been invoked to satisfy an outstanding claim of Purchaser for payment of the Lock-Up Adjustment Amount pursuant to Section 6.3(a)(v) and (b) Lock-Up Adjustment Amount that has directly been paid by any Seller to the Purchaser.

(v) Recourse to Bank Guarantee for Other Amounts Owed. With respect to the Lock-Up Adjustment Amount, the Bank Guarantee may be called by the Purchaser if (i) the Purchaser is entitled to any portion of the Lock-Up Adjustment Amount as determined under Section 1.5 and (ii) such portion of the Lock-Up Adjustment Amount has not been paid to the Purchaser within ten (10) Business Days of such amount coming due as determined in accordance with Section 1.5.

(vi) For the avoidance of doubt, the sum of all amounts that the Purchaser and Purchaser Indemnitees may call under the Bank Guarantee for any Damages under this Agreement may under no circumstances exceed the Total Bank Guarantee Amount.

39.

(b) Liability Cap. Except as specified otherwise in this Section 6.3(b), in no event shall the obligation of the Sellers to hold harmless, indemnify, compensate and reimburse the Purchaser Indemnitees under this Agreement or otherwise in total (the “Total Indemnity Obligation”) exceed the amount of EUR 3,300,000 (Euro three million three hundred thousand); provided however, that the Total Indemnity Obligation shall be up to an amount of EUR 6,600,000 (Euro six million six hundred thousand) for Damages directly or indirectly suffered or incurred by any of the Purchaser Indemnitees as a result of a breach of the Material IP Representations; provided further, however, that the Total Indemnity Obligation shall be up to the amount of the Total Purchase Price for Damages directly or indirectly suffered or incurred by any of the Purchaser Indemnitees: (i) in the case of any intentional misrepresentation or deceit, both within the meaning of Article 000 XXXX (Arglist) or fraud (Betrug), particular gross negligence (xxxxx xxxxx Fahrlässigkeit) or willful misconduct (Vorsatz) attributable to any of the Sellers or an Affiliate of the Sellers; and (ii) as a result of a breach of the Specified Representations;. For the avoidance of doubt, it is recorded that the amounts of the Total Indemnity Obligation specified pursuant to the foregoing shall not be understood to be cumulative but consumptive (example: in case of both, a breach of the representations and warranty pursuant to Section 2.4 causing a Damage of EUR 500,000 and a breach of the Specified IP Representations causing a Damage of EUR 6,200,000, the Total Indemnity Obligation shall not exceed EUR 6,600,000), with the exception that any Damages pursuant to Section 6.2(b)(vi) collected directly from the Sellers or pursuant to the right to set-off under Section 1.6(e) shall not be used in any of the foregoing consumptive calculation for determining the Total Indemnity Obligations of the Sellers to the extent the total amount of such Damages exceeds an amount of EUR 300,000 (three hundred thousand Euro). For the purpose of the Sellers’ Total Indemnity Obligation being capped at EUR 3,300,000 (Euro three million three hundred thousand) in accordance with this Section Section 6.3(b), Damages shall be deemed to include lost profits (entgangener Gewinn) and consequential damages (Mangelfolgeschäden) and the Purchaser Indemnitees may claim indemnification payments or reimbursements of lost profits (entgangener Gewinn) and consequential damages (Mangelfolgeschäden) thereunder up to a total amount of, in aggregate, EUR 1,650,000 (Euro one million six hundred fifty thousand), provided however that in relation to a breach of a Specified IP Representation, Damages shall be deemed to include lost profits (entgangener Gewinn) and consequential damages (Mangelfolgeschäden) up to a total amount of, in aggregate, EUR 6,600,000 (Euro six million six hundred thousand) and provided further that Damages directly or indirectly suffered or incurred by any of the Purchaser Indemnitees as a result of (i) and (ii) herein above, Damages shall be deemed to include lost profits (entgangener Gewinn) and consequential damages (Mangelfolgeschäden) up to a total amount of the Total Purchase Price.

(c) De Minimis Amount, Threshold; Double Claims.

(i) Generally. Subject to Section 6.3(c)(ii), the Sellers shall not be required to make any indemnification payments or reimbursements until such time as (i) in the case of an individual claim, the total amount of all Damages that otherwise would be subject to indemnification under Section 6.2 exceeds an amount of EUR 15,000 (fifteen thousand Euro) (the “De Minimis Amount”), provided, however, that for an individual claim under Section 2.14, the De Minimis Amount shall be EUR 25,000 (twenty five thousand Euro), provided further, however, that for an individual claim under the Material IP Representations, the De Minimis Amount shall be EUR 250,000 (two hundred fifty thousand Euro) or (ii) in the case of

40.

more than one claim, the total amount of all Damages (including the Damages arising from such inaccuracy or breach and all other Damages arising from any other inaccuracies or breaches of any representations or warranties) that were or otherwise would be subject to indemnification under Section 6.2 exceeds EUR 150,000 (one hundred fifty thousand Euro) in the aggregate (the “Threshold”), provided, however, that in the case of more than one claim pursuant to the Material IP Representations, the Threshold shall be EUR 500,000 (five hundred thousand Euro). Except for claims relating to a breach or inaccuracy of the Specified IP Representations or the Tax Representations, in which case, the Purchaser Indemnitees shall be entitled to claim the entire amount of Damages (Freigrenze), the Purchaser Indemnitees shall be entitled to the amount of such Damages only in excess (Freibetrag) of the De Minimis Amount or the Threshold, as the case may be. For the avoidance of doubt, a series of claims the subject matter of which is connected based on identical factual, legal or commercial grounds shall be treated in aggregate as an “individual claim” for calculating the De Minimis Amount and the Threshold. The Purchaser shall not be entitled to recover more than once in respect of the same Damage suffered.

(ii) Exceptions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the limitations set forth in Section 6.3(c) shall not apply in the case of claims based upon: (1) inaccuracies in or breaches of any of the Specified Representations; (2) to the matters referred to in Sections 6.2(b)(ii), (iv) and (v) ;

(d) Mitigation. Nothing in this Agreement shall in any way restrict or limit the general duty (Obliegenheit) of the Purchaser and the Group Companies to use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate any loss or damage which it may suffer in consequence of any breach of the Sellers’ Warranties. Section 1304 second sentence ABGB shall not apply.

(e) Additional Limitation of Liability. Without prejudice to any other liability limitations contained in this Agreement, the Sellers shall not be liable to the Purchaser:

(i) to the extent the matter to which the breach relates is specifically provided for (rückgestellt) in the Unaudited Financial Statements and the Most Recent Balance Sheet;

(ii) to the extent the matter to which the breach relates is covered by claims against third parties (excluding claims against customers of any of the Group Company’s products), including through existing insurance policies, to the extent compensation pursuant to such claims have been effectively received by the Purchaser or a Group Company (net of any costs in connection with maintaining such insurance policies);

(iii) to the extent tax benefits arising out of a breach of the Sellers’ Warranties, have been actually realized by the Purchaser or any of the Group Companies;

(iv) for up to the first EUR 40,000 (forty thousand Euro) (corresponding to 100 man days of EUR 400 each) in Damages which are directly or indirectly suffered or incurred by any of the Purchaser Indemnitees from (i) the assertion of intellectual property rights of any third party with respect to the Black Duck Items and within a period of 18 (eighteen) months as of the date of this Agreement and from (ii) necessary code refactoring work associated with the remediation of Black Duck Items;

41.

(v) any amount in excess of EUR 120,000 (one hundred twenty thousand Euro) (corresponding to 300 man days of EUR 400 each) in Damages which are directly or indirectly suffered or incurred by any of the Purchaser Indemnitees from necessary code refactoring work associated with the remediation of Other Black Duck Items provided however that in the event of an assertion of intellectual property rights of any third party with respect to these Other Black Duck Items, the full amount of Damages directly or indirectly suffered or incurred by any of the Purchaser Indemnitees as a result of such assertion shall be recoverable subject to the limitations set forth in Article 6.

(vi) to the extent the Damage in question would not have arisen or occurred under the insurance coverage of the Group Companies existing as of the date of this Agreement as disclosed to the Purchaser.

In the event that any of the benefits referred to in paragraphs (i) to (iii) above occurs after the Sellers have compensated the Purchaser for the relevant breach of a Sellers’ Warranties, the Purchaser shall promptly reimburse the relevant Seller(s) without any further request upon receipt or occurrence of any of the benefits referred to in paragraphs (i) to (iii) above.

6.4 Certain Procedures.

(a) Notice of Claim. The party seeking indemnification under this Article 6 (the “Indemnified Party”) agrees to give prompt, but in any case no later than thirty (30) days after it becomes aware of a breach of a representation and warranty under Article 2 or Article 3 giving rise to a claim, notice (the “Notice of Claim”) to the indemnifying party (the “Indemnifying Party”) of the assertion of any claim, or the commencement of any suit, action or proceeding by a third party in respect of which indemnity may be sought under this Article 6; provided, however, that no delay or failure on the part of the Indemnified Party in notifying the Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of any liability or obligation hereunder, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party clearly demonstrates that the defense of any third party suit, action or proceeding has been materially prejudiced by the Indemnified Party’s delay or failure to give such notice. The applicability of Articles 000 XXX et seq. are hereby expressly excluded.

(b) Response Notice. In the event that an Indemnified Party seeks indemnification for Damages pursuant to this Article 6, the procedures in this Section shall apply. Within thirty (30) days after delivery of a Notice of Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall provide to the Indemnified Party a written response (the “Response Notice”) in which the Indemnifying Party must either: (i) agree that some or all of the Damages claimed should be indemnified and, in the case of any Damages claimed and not so agreed to, contest such claimed amount, or (ii) contest all of the Damages claimed. The Indemnifying Party may contest such claimed amount of Damages only based upon a good faith belief that all or such portion of such claimed amount does not constitute Damages for which the Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification hereunder. If no such Response Notice is delivered by the Indemnifying Party within such thirty (30) day period, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have agreed that

42.

all of the claimed amount should be indemnified. Any such amount agreed to, or so deemed to be agreed to, by the Indemnifying Party pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) of this subsection (d) or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement being referred to herein as an “Agreed Amount.”

(c) Contested/Agreed Amount. If the Indemnifying Party in the Response Notice contests all or part of the claimed amount (thereupon, the “Contested Amount”), the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall attempt promptly and in good faith to agree upon the rights of the parties with respect to the Contested Amount. If the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party should so agree, a memorandum setting forth such agreement shall be prepared and signed by both parties and, if such agreement provides that all or a portion of the contested Amount is to be paid to the Indemnified Party (all or such portion of such Contested Amount to be so paid to the Indemnified Party being also referred to herein as an “Agreed Amount”), the Indemnifying Party shall make such payments in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If no such agreement can be reached after good faith negotiation within thirty (30) days of the delivery of the Indemnifying Party Response Notice (or such longer period as the Indemnified Party and Indemnifying Party may mutually agree), the matter shall be settled in accordance with the dispute resolution provisions of Section 7.11 of this Agreement.

6.5 Defense of Third Party Claims. In the event of the assertion or commencement by any Person of any claim or Legal Proceeding (whether against a Group Company, against the Purchaser or against any other Person) (a “Third Party Claim”) with respect to which any of the Sellers may become obligated to hold harmless, indemnify, compensate or reimburse any Purchaser Indemnified Party pursuant to this Article 6, Purchaser shall have the right, at its election, to proceed with the defense of such claim or Legal Proceeding on its own. If Purchaser so proceeds with the defense of any such claim or Legal Proceeding:

(a) all reasonable expenses relating to the defense of such claim or Legal Proceeding shall be borne and paid exclusively by the Sellers;

(b) each Seller shall make available to Purchaser any documents and materials in his or its possession or control that may be necessary to the defense of such claim or Legal Proceeding; and

(c) Purchaser shall have the right to settle, adjust or compromise such claim or Legal Proceeding at its own reasonable discretion.

Purchaser shall give the Sellers’ Representative prompt notice of the commencement of any such Legal Proceeding against Purchaser or any Group Company; provided, however, that any failure on the part of Purchaser to so notify the Sellers’ Representative shall not limit any of the obligations of the Sellers under this Article 6 (except to the extent such failure materially prejudices the defense of such Legal Proceeding).

43.

ARTICLE 7

MISCELLANEOUS
