(i) Certain Determinations. On the second (2nd) Business Day immediately preceding the Closing Date, the Company shall in good faith determine in a manner consistent with the definition thereof: (A) the Closing Cash Amount, (B) the Closing Net Working Capital Adjustment, (C) the Closing Funded Indebtedness Amount, (D) the amount of each Company Transaction Expense, (E) the amount of each Signing Change of Control Payment and each Closing Change of Control Payment, (F) the Closing Tax Liabilities Amount and (G) the Closing Consideration, and the Company shall provide a written certificate to the Buyer setting forth each such determination, including, in each case, the components thereof. The Company shall provide to the Buyer any information and back-up materials (including bank account information) reasonably requested by the Buyer with respect thereto.
(ii) Purchase and Sale of Shares. As of the Closing, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement,
(A) $55,000,000 (such amount, the “Escrow Amount”) shall be deposited into an escrow account (the “Escrow Account”), which shall be established pursuant to an escrow agreement (the “Escrow Agreement”), which Escrow Agreement shall be (1) entered into on the Closing Date among the Sellers’ Representative, Buyer and the escrow agent (the “Escrow Agent”) as security for the obligations of the Sellers and Optionholders pursuant to Section 2(a)(iv)(B), Section 9(b) and Section 9(c), if any, and (2) substantially in the form of Exhibit C attached hereto;
(B) $4,000,000 (such amount, the “Sellers’ Representative Fund”) shall be deposited into an account designated by the Seller’s Representative to Buyer;
(C) each of the Sellers holding Shares shall as legal and beneficial owner sell, assign, transfer and convey to the Buyer, and the Buyer shall purchase and acquire from each Seller, all of the Shares owned by such Seller, against payment by Buyer at the Closing, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account designated by such Seller, such Seller’s Allocation Percentage of an amount (the “Closing Payment”) equal to (1) the Closing Consideration minus (2) the Sellers’ Representative Fund minus (3) the Escrow Amount; and
(D) each of the Other Shareholders shall as legal and beneficial owner sell, assign, transfer and convey to the Buyer, and the Buyer shall purchase and acquire from each Other Shareholder, all of the Shares owned by such Other Shareholder, against payment by Buyer at the Closing, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account designated by the Company, such Other Shareholder’s Allocation Percentage of an amount of equal to the Closing Payment.
(iii) Determination of Final Net Working Capital, Final Cash Amount and Final Tax Liabilities Amount and Final Funded Indebtedness Amount.
(A) As soon as practicable, but no later than forty-five (45) days after the Closing Date, the Company shall, and Buyer shall cause the Company to, prepare and deliver to the Sellers’ Representative Buyer’s good faith calculations of each of Net Working Capital, the Cash Amount, the Tax Liabilities Amount and the Funded Indebtedness Amount, in each case, including the components thereof and in a manner consistent with the definition thereof (the “True-Up Calculations”). If Buyer fails to timely deliver the True-Up Calculations in accordance with the foregoing, then, at the election of the Sellers’ Representative in its sole discretion, either (1) no adjustment shall be made pursuant to Section 2(a)(iv) or (2) the Sellers’ Representative shall retain (at the expense of Buyer) a nationally recognized, independent accounting firm to provide a review of the Company and its Subsidiaries’ books and make an independent calculation of each of Net Working Capital, the Cash Amount, the Tax Liabilities Amount and the Funded Indebtedness Amount, each such calculation of such accounting firm being final, conclusive and binding on the Parties hereto. The Company shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, make its financial records available to the Sellers’ Representative and its advisors (or such independent accounting firm retained by the Sellers’ Representative, as the case may be) in connection with any review conducted in connection with this Section 2(a)(iii)(A).
(B) If the Sellers’ Representative does not give written notice of any dispute (a “Dispute Notice”) to Buyer within forty-five (45) days of receiving the True-Up Calculations, the Sellers and Buyer agree that the True-Up Calculations shall be deemed to set forth the Final Net Working Capital, the Final Cash Amount, the Final Tax Liabilities Amount and the Final Funded Indebtedness Amount for all purposes hereunder. Prior to the end of such forty-five (45) day period, the Sellers’ Representative may accept any of the True-Up Calculations by delivering written notice to that effect to Buyer, in which case the applicable amounts will be finally determined when such notice is given. If the Sellers’ Representative gives a Dispute Notice to Buyer within such forty-five (45) day period, Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative shall use reasonable best efforts to resolve the dispute during the forty-five (45) day period commencing on the date Buyer receives the Dispute Notice from the Sellers’ Representative. If the Sellers’ Representative and Buyer do not agree upon a final resolution with respect to any disputed items within such forty-five (45) day period, then the remaining items in dispute shall be submitted immediately to Deloitte & Touche LLP, or, if such firm declines to be retained to resolve the dispute, another nationally recognized, independent accounting firm reasonably acceptable to Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative (in either case, the “Consultant”). The Consultant shall be requested to render a determination of the applicable dispute within forty-five (45) days after referral of the matter to such Consultant, which determination must be in writing and must set forth, in reasonable detail, the basis therefor. The terms of appointment and engagement of the Consultant shall be as agreed upon between the Sellers’ Representative and Buyer. In resolving the disputed items, the Consultant shall (i) make an independent calculation of the aggregate amount of all such disputed items in a manner consistent with the applicable definitions (the “Consultant Amount”) and (ii) resolve all such items by choosing either (A) the aggregate amount for all such items set forth in the True-Up Calculations (the “Buyer Proposed Amount”) or (B) the aggregate amount for all such items set forth in the Dispute Notice (the “Seller Proposed Amount”), based upon which aggregate amount is closer to the Consultant Amount. Any engagement fees payable to the Consultant shall be borne by (x) the Sellers and Other Shareholders if the Consultant chooses the Buyer Proposed Amount or (y) the Buyer if the Consultant chooses the Seller Proposed Amount. Except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, all other costs and expenses incurred by the Parties in connection with resolving any dispute hereunder before the Consultant shall be borne by the Party incurring such cost and expense. Such determination of the Consultant shall be conclusive and binding upon the Parties. The Parties shall revise the True-Up Calculations to reflect the resolution of any objections thereto pursuant to this Section 2(a)(iii)(B) and, as so revised, such True-Up Calculations shall be deemed to set forth the Final Net Working Capital, the Final Cash Amount, the Final Tax Liabilities Amount and the Final Funded Indebtedness Amount for all purposes hereunder.
(C) The Company shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, make its financial records and personnel available to the Sellers’ Representative, its accountants and other representatives and the Consultant at reasonable times during the review by the Sellers’ Representative and the Consultant of, and the resolution of any objections with respect to, the True-Up Calculations.
(iv) Net Working Capital, Cash Amount, Tax Liabilities Amount and Funded Indebtedness Amount Adjustment.
(A) If (1) the Final Net Working Capital plus the Final Cash Amount minus the Final Tax Liabilities Amount minus the Final Funded Indebtedness Amount (the “Final Adjustment Amount”) is greater than (2) the Closing Net Working Capital plus the Closing Cash Amount minus the Closing Tax Liabilities Amount minus the Closing Funded Indebtedness Amount (the “Closing Adjustment Amount”), then within three (3) Business Days after the date on which the last of Final Net Working Capital, the Final Cash Amount, the Final Tax Liabilities Amount and the Final Funded Indebtedness Amount is determined, Buyer shall pay to the accounts of each Seller or Other Shareholder such Seller’s or Other Shareholder’s Allocation Percentage of an amount equal to the excess of the Final Adjustment Amount over the Closing Adjustment Amount by wire transfer or delivery of immediately available funds.
(B) If the Final Adjustment Amount is less than the Closing Adjustment Amount, then within three (3) Business Days after the date on which the last of Final Net Working Capital, the Final Cash Amount, the Final Tax Liabilities Amount and the Final Funded Indebtedness Amount is determined, Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative shall deliver joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent instructing the Escrow Agent to deliver to Buyer an amount equal to the excess of the Closing Adjustment Amount over the Final Adjustment Amount from the Escrow Funds (which, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, shall be the sole source of recovery for any payment required to be made pursuant to this Section 2(a)(iv)(B)).
(i) The closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Closing”) shall take place at the offices of Xxxxxxxx & Xxxxx LLP, 000 Xxxxx XxXxxxx, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx at 10:00 a.m. on the later of (A) the second (2nd) Business Day following full satisfaction or due waiver of all of the closing conditions set forth in Section 7 hereof (other than those to be satisfied at the Closing) and (B) September 17, 2010, or at such other location or on such other date as is mutually agreeable to the Buyer and the Sellers.

(B) the Buyer shall deliver to the Company, as agent for each Other Shareholder, the aggregate amount of the Closing Payments for the Other Shareholders, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to one or more accounts designated by the Company to the Buyer (such account details being delivered at least two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date);
(C) the Company shall pay to each Other Shareholder (1) the Closing Payment multiplied by such Other Shareholder’s Allocation Percentage, minus (2) any applicable withholding and such Other Shareholder’s portion of the Aggregate Option Exercise Amount; provided that it is acknowledged and agreed that the Company shall make such payments through its regular payroll provider and, in the event the amount in (2) is greater than the amount in (1), such Other Shareholder shall receive no payment;
(D) each Option Exercise Loan shall be automatically deemed paid in full and terminated with no further obligations outstanding, upon receipt by the Company of the Aggregate Option Exercise Amount (which it is acknowledged that the Company is deemed to have received pursuant to Sections 2(b)(ii)(B) and 2(b)(ii)(C));

There are no outstanding equity appreciation, phantom equity or similar rights with respect to of any of the Company’s Subsidiaries.

(ii) Post-Closing Actions.
(A) The Buyer shall prepare or cause to be prepared and file or cause to be filed all Tax Returns and Tax Claims for the Company and its Subsidiaries that are due after the Closing Date. With respect to any such Tax Return or Tax Claim that would reasonably be expected to give rise, directly or indirectly, to an obligation to provide an indemnity to the Buyer under this Agreement, including Section 9(c), the Buyer shall permit the Sellers’ Representative to review and comment on each such Tax Return or Tax Claim prior to filing and shall consider in good faith such revisions to such Tax Returns or Tax Claims as are reasonably requested by Sellers’ Representative. The Buyer and the Company, on the one hand, and Sellers’ Representative, on the other hand, shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other Parties, in connection with the filing of Tax Returns and Tax Claims. Such cooperation shall include, upon Sellers’ Representative’s request, providing records and information (including all information necessary to comply with subpart F and section 1248 of the Code) that are reasonably relevant to any such matters, making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explaining any materials provided in connection with this Section 6(c)(ii).
(B) Neither Buyer, the Company nor any of their Affiliates shall make any election under Code § 338 with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(ii) As of the Closing, the Buyer shall cause the Company to purchase officers’, directors’ and managers’ liability tail insurance or other liability insurance that covers events occurring prior to the Closing, including in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, on terms and in amounts no less favorable to its officers, directors and managers than the officers’, directors’ and managers’ liability insurance policy of the Company in effect on the date of this Agreement (a correct and complete copy of which has been provided to the Buyer) (the “Existing D&O Policy”) for a period of six (6) years after the Closing (the “D&O Tail Policy”); provided that in no event shall the Buyer be required to pay, with respect to the entire six-year period following the Closing, premiums for insurance under this Section 6(d)(ii) that in the aggregate exceed 150% of the annual premiums payable by the Company for coverage during calendar year 2009 under the Existing D&O Policy (which premiums for such year are hereby represented and warranted by the Company to be €18,450). If such prepaid policies have been obtained prior to the Closing Date, the Buyer shall, and shall cause the Company and its Subsidiaries, as applicable, to maintain such policies in full force and effect, and continue to honor the obligations thereunder. If the Company, the Subsidiaries or any of their respective successors or assigns (A) shall consolidate with or merge into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (B) shall transfer all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, proper provisions shall be made so that the successors and assigns of the Company and the Subsidiaries shall assume all of the obligations set forth in this Section 6(d).
(iii) This Section 6(d) is intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, the present and former officers, directors and managers of the Company and its Subsidiaries, their heirs and personal representatives and shall be binding on the Buyer and its successors and assigns and is in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights to indemnification or contribution that any such person may have by contract or otherwise.
(e) Designation and Replacement of the Sellers’ Representative. The Parties have agreed that it is desirable to designate the Sellers’ Representative to act on behalf of the Sellers and the Optionholders for certain limited purposes, as specified herein. The execution of this Agreement by the Sellers and the Optionholders shall, to the maximum extent permitted under Applicable Law, constitute irrevocable ratification and approval of such designation by the Sellers and the Optionholders and authorization of the Sellers’ Representative to serve in such capacity (including to settle any and all disputes with Buyer under this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement), and shall also constitute a reaffirmation, approval, acceptance and adoption of, and an agreement to comply with and perform, all of the acknowledgments and agreements made by the Sellers’ Representative on behalf of the Sellers and the Optionholders in this Agreement and the other documents delivered in connection herewith (including the Escrow Agreement). The Sellers’ Representative may resign at any time. The designation of the Sellers’ Representative is coupled with an interest, and, except as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, such designation is irrevocable and shall not be affected by the death, incapacity, illness, bankruptcy, dissolution or other inability to act on behalf of any of the Sellers or the Optionholders. A new Sellers’ Representative may be appointed at any time by the vote of Persons which collectively own more than 50% of the Shares issued and outstanding as of immediately prior the Closing, such appointment to become effective upon the written acceptance thereof by the new Sellers’ Representative. Written notice of any resignation or appointment of the Sellers’ Representative shall be delivered by the Sellers’ Representative to Buyer promptly after such action is taken.
(f) Authority and Rights of the Sellers’ Representative; Limitations on Liability. The Sellers’ Representative shall have such powers and authority as are necessary or appropriate to carry out the functions assigned to it under this Agreement and in any other document delivered in connection herewith (including the Escrow Agreement), including all (and the exclusive) power and authority to settle any and all disputes with Buyer under this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement and to amend this Agreement and the other agreements contemplated hereby in any and all respects on behalf of all of the Sellers and the Optionholders, in each case, as the Sellers’ Representative determines in its sole discretion, which settlements and amendments shall bind all of the Sellers and the Optionholders hereto as if such Sellers and Optionholders made such settlement or executed such amendment; provided, however, that the Sellers’ Representative will have no obligation to act on behalf of the Sellers and the Optionholders. The Company, Buyer and the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to rely on the actions taken by the Sellers’ Representative without independent inquiry into the capacity of the Sellers’ Representative to so act. All actions, notices, communications and determinations by the Sellers’ Representative to carry out such functions shall conclusively be deemed to have been authorized by, and shall be binding upon, the Sellers and the Optionholders. Neither the Sellers’ Representative nor any of its agents or representatives shall have any liability to the Sellers or the Optionholders with respect to actions taken or omitted to be taken by the Sellers’ Representative in such capacity (or any of its agents or representatives in connection therewith), except with respect to the Sellers’ Representative’s willful misconduct. The Sellers’ Representative shall be entitled to engage such counsel, experts and other agents and consultants as it shall deem necessary in connection with exercising its powers and performing its function hereunder and (in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Sellers’ Representative) shall be entitled to conclusively rely on the opinions and advice of such Persons. The Sellers’ Representative (for itself and its agents and representatives) shall be entitled to full reimbursement for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances (including fees and disbursements of its counsel, experts and other agents and consultants) incurred by the Sellers’ Representative in such capacity (or any of its agents or representatives in connection therewith), and to full indemnification against any loss, liability or expenses arising out of actions taken or omitted to be taken in its capacity as Sellers’ Representative (except for those arising out of the Sellers’ Representative’s willful misconduct), including the costs and expenses of investigation and defense of claims, from the Sellers or the Optionholders (including from funds paid to the Sellers’ Representative under this Agreement or otherwise received by it in its capacity as Sellers’ Representative, or funds to be distributed to the Sellers and the Optionholders under this Agreement at its direction, pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement (including under the Escrow Agreement)). In furtherance of the foregoing, the Sellers’ Representative shall have the power and authority to set aside and retain funds paid to or received by it (or to be paid to or received by the Sellers and the Optionholders) pursuant to this Agreement at Closing or thereafter, to satisfy such obligations (including to establish such reserves as the Sellers’ Representative determines in good faith to be appropriate for such costs and expenses that are not then known or determinable). The relationship created herein is not to be construed as a joint venture or any form of partnership between or among the Sellers’ Representative or any of the Sellers or Optionholders for any purpose.

(ii) the Buyer may terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to the Sellers at any time prior to the Closing (A) in the event that the Company, any Seller or any Optionholder has breached any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement, which breach would give rise to the failure of a condition set forth in Section 7(a)(i) or 7(a)(ii), the Buyer has notified the Sellers of the breach, and the breach has continued without cure for a period of thirty (30) days after the notice of breach or (B) if the Closing shall not have occurred on or before the Termination Date by reason of the failure of any condition precedent under Section 7(a) hereof (unless the failure results primarily from the Buyer’s inaction or the Buyer itself breaching any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement); and
(iii) Sellers holding a majority of the issued and outstanding Shares may terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to the Buyer at any time prior to the Closing (A) in the event that the Buyer has breached any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement, which breach would give rise to the failure of a condition set forth in Section 7(b)(i) or 7(b)(ii), the Sellers have notified the Buyer of the breach, and the breach has continued without cure for a period of thirty (30) days after the notice of breach or (B) if the Closing shall not have occurred on or before the Termination Date, by reason of the failure of any condition precedent under Section 7(b) hereof (unless the failure results primarily from inaction of the Company, any Seller or any Optionholder or the Company, any Seller or any Optionholder breaching any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement).

(i) Subject to the other provisions of this Section 9, including Section 9(e), the Sellers and the Optionholders agree, jointly and severally, to indemnify, defend and hold Buyer and its respective Affiliates (including the Company and its Subsidiaries after the Closing), officers, directors, employees, and agents (each a “Buyer Indemnitee”) harmless from any damages, losses, liabilities, obligations, claims of any kind, demands, proceedings, actions, causes of action, costs, Taxes, deficiencies, assessments and expenses (including interest, penalties, fines, reasonable attorneys’ and other advisors’ fees and expenses and reasonable costs of defense) (each, a “Loss”) suffered or paid, directly or indirectly, as a result of, in connection with, or arising out of (A) any breach of any representation or warranty made by the Company, the Sellers or the Optionholders contained herein (other than in Section 3(a), (b), (c), (d), (e), (f) or (k) or Section 9(c)(iii)) or in any certificate delivered to the Buyer pursuant to this Agreement (other than Section 3(a), (b), (c), (d) (e), (f) or (k) or Section 9(c)(iii)), (B) any breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made by the Company, the Sellers or the Optionholders in Section 3(a), (b), (c), (d), (e) or (f) or in any certificate delivered to the Buyer pursuant to Section 3(a), (b), (c), (d), (e) or (f), (C) any failure by Company (prior to the Closing), the Sellers or the Optionholders to perform any of their respective covenants or agreements contained herein (other than in Section 5(j) or 6(c)), (D) fifty percent (50%) of any Post-Closing Change of Control Payment, (E) any Specified Matter and (F) any Other Specified Matter to the extent relating to the period up to the Closing (provided that all Losses suffered or paid as a result of, in connection with or arising out of such Other Specified Matter, shall include Losses suffered or paid subsequent to the Closing); provided that, in the case of clauses (A) and (B), in determining the amount of a Loss as a result of, in connection with or arising out of a breach of any such representation or warranty, but not in determining whether a breach of any such representation or warranty has occurred, all such representations and warranties that are qualified as to materiality or by reference to a Material Adverse Effect shall be deemed not so qualified.
(ii) Subject to the other provisions of this Section 9, Buyer agrees to, and shall, after the Closing, cause the Company to, indemnify, defend and hold the Sellers, the Optionholders and their respective Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, and agents (each a “Seller Indemnitee”) harmless from any Loss suffered or paid, directly or indirectly, as a result of, in connection with, or arising out of (A) any breach of any representation or warranty made by Buyer contained herein or in any certificate delivered to the Company pursuant to this Agreement, (B) any failure by Buyer to perform any of its covenants or agreements contained herein and (C) any failure by the Company (subsequent to the Closing) to perform any of its covenants or agreements contained herein.
(iii) The obligations to indemnify and hold harmless pursuant to this Section 9(b) and Section 9(c) shall survive the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby for the applicable period set forth in Section 9(a), except for claims for indemnification asserted by any Party entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Section 9(b) or Section 9(c) (an “Indemnified Party”) made prior to the applicable period set forth in Section 9(a) (which claims shall survive until final resolution thereof); provided that the Indemnified Party shall have delivered a Notice of Claim to the Party obligated to indemnify such Indemnified Party (such notified Party, the “Indemnifying Party”) of any such claims prior to the applicable period set forth in Section 9(a).
(i) Subject to the other provisions of this Section 9, the Sellers and the Optionholders agree, jointly and severally, to indemnify, defend and hold each Buyer Indemnitee harmless from any Loss suffered or paid, directly or indirectly, as a result of, in connection with, or arising out of, without duplication, (A) all liability for Taxes of the Company and its Subsidiaries for the Pre-Closing Tax Period, (B) all liability for income or value added Taxes that may be imposed as a result of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries being a member of a consolidated, combined, unitary or similar group of corporations or other taxpayers at any time prior to the Closing, (C) all liability for Taxes of any other Person that may be imposed on the Company or any of its Subsidiaries as a result of being a successor to such other Person for Tax purposes prior to the Closing, (D) all liability for Taxes for which the Sellers and the Optionholders are liable pursuant to Section 10(m) of this Agreement in excess of the Additional Tax Amount, (E) any breach of any representation or warranty set forth in Section 3(k) (provided that in determining the amount of a Loss as a result of, in connection with or arising out of a breach of any such representation or warranty, but not in determining whether a breach of any such representation or warranty has occurred, all such representations and warranties that are qualified as to materiality or by reference to a Material Adverse Effect shall be deemed not so qualified), (F) the failure by the Company (prior to the Closing), the Sellers or the Optionholders to perform any of their respective covenants or agreements herein relating to Taxes, (G) the inclusion of any Irish R&D Tax Credit in the calculation of the Final Tax Liabilities Amount to the extent such Irish R&D Tax Credit is not realized by the receipt of cash by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries prior to the date that is six (6) months following the Closing Date and (H) the inclusion of any payments made to a relevant Taxing Authority in the calculation of the Final Tax Liabilities Amount to the extent such Taxing Authority does not offset such payments against the Company’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ Tax liabilities for the relevant taxable period; provided, however, that the Sellers shall not be liable to indemnify the Buyer Indemnitees under this Section 9(c) for Taxes described in each of clauses (A) through (F) above to the extent that amounts in respect of such Taxes have been discharged or have been adequately reflected as a liability in accordance with GAAP in the Final Tax Liabilities Amount; provided further that the Sellers shall not be liable to indemnify Buyer Indemnitees under this Section 9(c) for Taxes described in each of clauses (A) through (F) above which are imposed under the laws of the Republic of Ireland to the extent that:
(A) such Taxes are attributable to or arise out of some act, omission, transaction or arrangement carried out on or after the Closing Date by or on behalf of the Buyer or by a member of the Buyer’s group or by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective successors in title other than in the Ordinary Course of Business without knowledge of the consequences thereof;
(B) such Taxes are attributable to or increased by any admission of liability made after the date of this Agreement by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or by Persons acting on behalf of any of them or Persons deriving title from the Buyer or by a member of the Buyer’s group;
(C) the Tax arises or is increased as a result of:
|
(1)
|
an increase in rates of Tax, or new Tax, on or after the date of this Agreement with retrospective effect;
|
|
(2)
|
any administrative or judicial decision, or practice or any generally accepted change in the interpretation of Applicable Law, on or after the date of this Agreement;
|
|
(3)
|
any change in the practice of any Tax Authority or the practices or policies of any recognized accounting body;
|
|
(4)
|
the making of any judicial decision or the passing of any primary or subordinate legislation or code of practice related thereto, or making of any other government regulation, not in force as of the date of this Agreement or the withdrawal or alteration on or after the date of this Agreement of any published extra statutory concession made by any fiscal authority and currently in operation;
|
|
(5)
|
the failure or omission on the part of the Buyer or the Company or any of its Subsidiaries after the Closing to make any claim, action, surrender or disclaimer or to file all necessary Tax Returns and computations required to be made by it or not submitting such Tax Returns and computations within the appropriate time limits or submitting such Tax Returns and computations otherwise than on a proper basis or to give any notice or consent or do any other thing the making or giving or doing of which could have been performed notwithstanding the sale of the Shares;
|
|
(6)
|
the Company or any of its Subsidiaries waiving or surrendering on or after the Closing Date any Relief available to it (excluding Post-Closing Reliefs);
|
|
(7)
|
the fact that the Company’s accounting methods, policies or the application thereof (including the treatment of any assets or liabilities or of the Tax attributable to any timing differences in future accounts of the Company) is changed on or after the Closing from its treatment or application in preparing the Final Tax Liabilities Amount except where such change is necessary to comply with GAAP in force at Closing or to correct an error in existence prior to or at Closing;
|
(D) the claim would not have arisen but for anything expressly provided to be done or omitted to be done pursuant to this Agreement or which is otherwise done or omitted to be done at the written request or with the written consent of the Buyer;
(E) the claim would not have arisen but for (or if the same claim is increased by reason of) a breach by the Buyer of its obligations under this Agreement;
(F) any Tax for which the Buyer or the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is or may be liable to be assessed or accountable is reduced or extinguished as a result of any such claim or the liability to which it relates;
(G) any:
|
(1)
|
Reliefs (other than Post-Closing Reliefs) previously unutilized are available to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or are for no consideration made available to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for set-off against the Tax; or
|
|
(2)
|
over-payment of Tax relating to income, profits or gains earned, accrued or received on or before the Closing Date or by reference to an event occurring or which occurred on or before the Closing Date is available to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for set-off against the Tax which is the subject of a claim;
|
(H) such Tax arises because of the winding up, cessation of trade, change in the trade or business of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries after the Closing or any re-organization or change in ownership of any member of the Buyer’s group after the Closing;
(I) failure to utilize any payments received by the Buyer to discharge liabilities to which the claim giving rise to the payment relates; or
(J) the matter giving rise to the claim for Tax results in a benefit accruing to any member of the Buyer’s group (including any right to reduce any liability to Tax or otherwise).
(ii) In the case of any taxable period that includes (but does not end on) the Closing Date (a “Straddle Period”): (A) real, personal and intangible property and other Taxes not measured by income or receipts for the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be equal to the amount of such Taxes for the entire Straddle Period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days during the Straddle Period that are in the Pre-Closing Tax Period and the denominator of which is the number of days in the Straddle Period; and (B) Taxes (other than those Taxes described in clause (A)) for the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be computed as if such taxable period ended as of the close of business on the Closing Date, and in the case of any Taxes attributable to the ownership of any equity interest in any partnership or other “flowthrough” entity, as if a taxable period of such partnership or other “flowthrough” entity ended as of the close of business on the Closing Date. The Parties agree that for Tax purposes all deductions, credits and other items arising with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including with respect to the Options, will not be taken into account in the Pre-Closing Tax Period.
(iii) The Sellers and the Optionholders jointly and severally warrant to the Buyer Indemnitees that all documents forming part of the title to any material asset of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries may wish to enforce or produce in evidence, which are required to be stamped by Applicable Law, are duly stamped and have, where appropriate, been adjudicated. If this warranty is untrue with respect to any document required to be stamped under Applicable Law and Buyer and Seller’s Representative agree that it is necessary under Applicable Law to procure stamping of such document, then the Sellers and the Optionholders shall indemnify the Buyer Indemnitees in an amount equal to any unpaid stamp duty and any interest or penalties payable in respect thereof, and Buyer shall promptly pay over such amount to the relevant Governmental Authority.
(iv) The Buyer hereby covenants with the Sellers to pay to the Sellers or any Person falling within the meaning of section 629(4) of TCA 1997 (or its equivalent in any other jurisdiction) an amount equal to any Tax for which the Company is primarily liable to pay in respect of an event occurring after the Closing, but which the Sellers or any Person falling within the meaning of section 629(4) of TCA 1997 become liable to pay as a result of a failure on the part of the Company to pay such Tax, except to the extent that the Tax for which the Sellers or any Person falling within section 629(4) of TCA 1997 is liable has been recovered under section 629(5) of TCA 1997.
(i) Third Party Claims.
(A) If a claim, action, suit or proceeding by a Person who is not a Party or an Affiliate thereof is made against any Indemnified Party (a “Third Party Claim”), and if such Person intends to seek indemnity with respect thereto under this Section 9, such Indemnified Party shall promptly give a Notice of Claim to the Indemnifying Party; provided that failure to give such notification on a timely basis shall not affect the indemnification provided hereunder except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party shall have been actually and materially prejudiced as a result of such failure. Thereafter, the Indemnified Party shall deliver to the Indemnifying Party, within three (3) Business Days after the Indemnified Party’s receipt thereof, copies of all notices and documents (including court papers) received by the Indemnified Party relating to the Third Party Claim.
(B) If a Third Party Claim is made against an Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense thereof and, if it elects, to assume the defense thereof with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party and reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall not, except with the written consent of the Indemnified Party, enter into any settlement that (1) does not include as a term thereof the giving by the Person(s) asserting such claim to all Indemnified Parties of a release from all liability with respect to such claim or consent to entry of any judgment or (2) provides for injunctive or other nonmonetary relief affecting the Indemnified Party. If an Indemnifying Party elects to assume the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party for legal fees or expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof. If the Indemnifying Party assumes such defense, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in the defense thereof and to employ counsel, at its own expense, separate from the counsel employed by the Indemnifying Party, but with it being understood, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall control such defense. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to assume the defense of any Third Party Claim (and shall be liable for the legal fees and expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party in defending such Third Party Claim) if (x) the Indemnified Party has determined in good faith that the Losses which may be incurred as a result of the Third Party Claim exceed, either individually or when aggregated with all other claims, the Escrow Funds remaining at such time, (y) the Third Party Claim seeks an order, injunction or other equitable relief or relief for other than money damages against the Indemnified Party which the Indemnified Party reasonably determines, after conferring with its counsel, cannot be separated from any related claim for money damages or (z) the Indemnifying Party is also a party and joint representation would be inappropriate or there may be legal defenses available to the Indemnified Party which are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall also be liable for the legal fees and expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party for any period during which the Indemnifying Party has not assumed the defense of any Third Party Claim. Whether or not the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall not, except with the written consent of the Indemnifying Party, enter into any settlement that does not include as a term thereof the giving by the Person(s) asserting such claim to all Indemnified Parties of a release from all liability with respect to such claim or consent to entry of any judgment.
(C) All of the Parties shall reasonably cooperate in the defense or prosecution of any Third Party Claim in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder and each Party (or a duly authorized representative of such Party) shall (and shall cause its Affiliates to) furnish such records, information and testimony, and attend such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials and appeals, as may be reasonably requested in connection therewith.
(ii) Direct Claims. In the event any Indemnified Party should have a claim against any Indemnifying Party under this Section 9 that does not involve a Third Party Claim being asserted against or sought to be collected from such Indemnified Party (a “Direct Claim”), such Indemnified Party shall promptly give a Notice of Claim to the Indemnifying Party; provided that failure to give such notification on a timely basis shall not affect the indemnification provided hereunder except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party shall have been actually and materially prejudiced as a result of such failure. If the Indemnifying Party does not notify the Indemnified Party within fifteen (15) days following its receipt of such notice that it disputes its liability to the Indemnified Party, such Direct Claim specified by the Indemnified Party in such notice shall be conclusively deemed a liability subject to indemnification pursuant to this Section 9. If the Indemnifying Party has timely disputed its liability with respect to such Direct Claim as provided above, the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall attempt to resolve in good faith such dispute within forty-five (45) days of the Indemnifying Party providing notice to the Indemnified Party of the dispute of liability (it being understood that such good faith attempt shall not require either party to submit the dispute to arbitration). If such dispute is not so resolved within such forty-five (45) day period, then either party may initiate a lawsuit with respect to the subject matter of such dispute in accordance with, and subject to the limitations of, Section 10.
(e) Limitations on Indemnification Obligations. The rights of an Indemnified Party to indemnification pursuant to the provisions of Section 9(b) and Section 9(c) are subject to the following limitations:
(i) the Buyer Indemnitees shall not be entitled to recover individual Losses pursuant to Section 9(b)(i)(A) or Section 9(c)(i)(E) if the total amount of such individual Loss which the Buyer Indemnitees would recover under Section 9(b)(i)(A) or Section 9(c)(i)(E) (as limited by the provisions of Section 9(e)(iv)), but for this Section 9(e)(i), is less than $10,000 (the “Mini-Basket”); provided that (A) a series of related Losses shall be aggregated for purposes of this Section 9(e)(i) and (B) Losses that are less than the Mini-Basket shall be disregarded for purposes of Section 9(e)(iii);
(ii) the Buyer Indemnitees shall have no right to indemnification pursuant to Section 9(b)(i)(A) for Losses that are incurred to clean up or otherwise remediate any Hazardous Materials to the extent such cleanup or other remediation is not conducted in a reasonably cost-effective manner, taking into consideration (A) use of the relevant property (with respect to the Leased Property, as of the Closing Date), (B) applicable Environmental Requirements, (C) available risk-based approaches, engineering controls, institutional controls, deed restrictions and activity and use limitations (if any) under applicable Environmental Requirements and permitted by the relevant Governmental Entity with jurisdiction over the matter, (D) impact or threat to the environment or human health and (E) impact to or interference with the operations of the Buyer Indemnitees; provided that in no event shall such cleanup or other remediation be deemed to have not been conducted in a reasonably cost-effective manner for the purposes of the foregoing clause on the basis that such cleanup or other remediation does not include any engineering or institutional controls or other activity and use limitations or deed restrictions or is not based on any risk-based approach where such restrictions, limitations, controls or approach would unreasonably interfere with Buyer Indemnitees’ operation of the relevant property.
(iii) the Buyer Indemnitees shall not be entitled to recover Losses pursuant to Section 9(b)(i)(A) or Section 9(c)(i)(E) until the total amount which the Buyer Indemnitees would recover under Section 9(b)(i)(A) and Section 9(c)(i)(E) (as limited by the provisions of Section 9(e)(iv)), but for this Section 9(e)(iii), exceeds $2,750,000 (the “Deductible”), in which case, the Buyer Indemnitees shall only be entitled to recover such Losses in excess of such amount;
(iv) the funds in the Escrow Account, at any given time, shall be the sole and exclusive source of recovery with respect to Losses indemnifiable pursuant to Section 9(b) and Section 9(c), and shall limit the liability of the Sellers and Optionholders, and in no event shall the Buyer Indemnitees be entitled to recover, or the liability of the Sellers and Optionholders exceed, more than the amount of the funds available in the Escrow Account pursuant to Section 2(a)(iv)(B), Section 9(b) and Section 9(c) in the aggregate;
(v) if an Indemnified Party does not use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate Losses for which such Indemnified Party seeks indemnification pursuant to Section 9(b) or Section 9(c), the Indemnifying Party shall not be required to indemnify the Indemnified Party to the extent any such Losses could have been mitigated if the Indemnified Party had used such commercially reasonable efforts;
(vi) the amount of each Loss shall be determined net of any amounts actually recovered by the Indemnified Party which suffered such Loss under insurance policies or from other collateral sources (such as contractual indemnities of any Person which are contained outside of this Agreement) with respect to such Loss; provided that such Indemnified Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to pursue such recovery under available insurance policies or other available collateral sources;
(vii) in any case where an Indemnified Party recovers, under insurance policies or from other collateral sources, any amount in respect of a matter for which such Indemnified Party was indemnified pursuant to Section 9(b) or Section 9(c), such Indemnified Party shall promptly pay over to the Indemnifying Party the amount so recovered (after deducting therefrom the amount of the expenses incurred by such Indemnified Party in procuring such recovery), but not in excess of the sum of any amount previously so paid to or on behalf of such Indemnified Party in respect of such matter;
(viii) in no event shall any Indemnified Party be entitled to recover or make a claim for any amounts in respect of special or indirect damages, lost revenues, income or profits, loss in value or diminution in value, of securities or assets or punitive damages and, in particular, no “multiple of profits” or “multiple of cash flow” or similar valuation methodology shall be used in calculating the amount of any Losses, unless, in each case, paid or payable (and subsequently paid) to a third party; and
(ix) for the avoidance of doubt, neither the Mini-Basket nor the Deductible shall be applicable to the indemnification obligations set forth in subclauses (B), (C), (D), (E) or (F) of Section 9(b)(i) or subclauses (A), (B), (C), (D), (F), (G) or (H) of Section 9(c)(i).
Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 9 to the contrary, no indemnification obligation of any Indemnifying Party under this Agreement that has been finally judicially determined to have resulted from fraud on the part of any Indemnifying Party shall be subject to any limitation set forth above in this Section 9(e); provided that in no event shall the Buyer Indemnitees be entitled to recover Losses in the aggregate, under this Section 9, any other Section of this Agreement or any combination thereof or otherwise, in excess of the Final Purchase Price.
(f) Exclusive Remedy. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, indemnification pursuant to the provisions of this Section 9 shall be the sole and exclusive remedy for the Parties for (i) any breach of any representation or warranty contained herein or in any certificate delivered pursuant to this Agreement or (ii) subject to Section 10(o), any failure to perform any covenant or agreement contained herein, in each case, other than any such breach or failure that has been finally judicially determined to have resulted from fraud. In furtherance of the foregoing, except in the case of a final judicial determination of fraud, no Indemnified Party may avoid the limitations on liability set forth in this Section 9 by seeking damages or claims for breach of contract, tort, rescission or pursuant to any other theory of liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event shall the Buyer Indemnitees be entitled to recover Losses in the aggregate, under this Section 9, any other Section of this Agreement or any combination thereof or otherwise, in excess of the Final Purchase Price.
(i) Except as provided in Section 9(g)(ii), any indemnification of the Buyer Indemnitees or the Seller Indemnitees pursuant to this Section 9 shall be effected by wire transfer of immediately available funds from the applicable Persons to an account designated in writing by the applicable Buyer Indemnitees or Seller Indemnitees, as the case may be, within fifteen (15) days after the final determination thereof; provided, however, that any indemnification owed by the Sellers to the Buyer Indemnitees pursuant to Section 9(b)(i)(A) may only be satisfied from the Escrow Funds pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement.
(ii) Any indemnification pursuant to Section 9(c) (“Tax Indemnification”), other than an indemnification related to a Direct Claim, shall be effected by wire transfer of immediately available funds from the applicable Persons to an account designated in writing by the applicable Buyer Indemnitees or Seller Indemnitees, as the case may be, (A) in the case of Tax Indemnification for a Tax liability of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that is not yet due and payable, five (5) Business Days before the latest date on which such Tax liability becomes due and payable and (B) in the case of any other Tax Indemnification, fourteen (14) Business Days after the date of delivery of the Notice of Claim; provided, however, that any indemnification owed by the Sellers to the Buyer Indemnitees pursuant to Section 9(b)(i)(A) may only be satisfied from the Escrow Funds pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement. For purposes of this Section 9(g)(ii), references to a date on which a Tax liability becomes due and payable include a reference to the date on which it would have become due were it not for the availability of some Post-Closing Relief or right to repayment of Tax.
(iii) Subject to Section 6(f), (A) any Escrow Funds remaining as of the date that is eighteen (18) months from the Closing Date (the “First Escrow Release Date”) (minus the aggregate amount claimed by the Buyer Indemnitees pursuant to claims made against such funds in accordance with this Agreement and not fully resolved prior to such date) that exceed $27,500,000 shall be released to the Sellers’ Representative and (B) any Escrow Funds remaining as of the date that is two (2) years from the Closing Date (the “Second Escrow Release Date”) (minus the aggregate amount claimed by the Buyer Indemnitees pursuant to claims made against such funds in accordance with this Agreement and not fully resolved prior to such date) shall be released to the Sellers’ Representative. At any time following the Second Escrow Release Date, to the extent the Escrow Funds exceed the aggregate amount claimed by the Buyer Indemnitees pursuant to claims made prior to such Second Escrow Release Date and not fully resolved prior to the time of determination, such excess shall, subject to Section 6(f), be promptly released to the Sellers’ Representative.
(iv) The Sellers’ Representative and Buyer shall deliver joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent instructing the Escrow Agent to make any distributions from the Escrow Account provided for herein in accordance with the Escrow Agreement.
(h) Tax Treatment of Indemnification Payments. For all Tax purposes the Parties agree to treat any indemnity payment under this Agreement as an adjustment to the Purchase Price received by Sellers for the transactions contemplated by this Agreement unless otherwise required by Applicable Law.
(a) Press Releases and Public Announcements. No Party shall issue a press release or public announcement relating to the subject matter of this Agreement after the date hereof, without the prior consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) of (i) the Buyer and (ii) prior to the Closing, Sellers holding a majority of the issued and outstanding Shares and following the Closing, the Sellers’ Representative, except as such release or announcement may be required by Applicable Law or the rules or regulations of any securities exchange, in which case the Party required to make the release or announcement shall allow (A) the Buyer and (B) prior to the Closing, Sellers holding a majority of the issued and outstanding Shares and following the Closing, the Sellers’ Representative reasonable time to comment on such release or announcement in advance of such issuance; provided that, after the Closing, the Sellers’ Representative and the Buyer may issue a press release or public announcement relating to the subject matter of this Agreement without the prior consent of any other Party.
(b) Third-Party Beneficiaries. Except as contemplated by Section 6(d) above, this Agreement shall not confer any legal or equitable rights or remedies upon any Person other than the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.
(c) Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the documents referred to herein) constitutes the entire agreement among the Parties and supersedes any prior understandings or agreements among the Parties, written or oral, with respect to the subject matter hereof, other than the Confidentiality Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect.
(d) Succession and Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties named herein and their respective personal representatives, successors and permitted assigns. No Party may assign either this Agreement or any of its rights, interests or obligations hereunder without the prior written approval of the Buyer and the Sellers holding a majority of the issued and outstanding Shares and any attempted assignment will be null and void. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the Buyer may assign this Agreement or any of its rights, interests or obligations hereunder to any direct or indirect wholly-owned Subsidiary of Mylan, without the prior written approval of any other Party.
(e) Counterparts; Facsimile Signatures. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by facsimile or scanned pages shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart to this Agreement.
(f) Interpretation. When a reference is made in this Agreement to a Section, Exhibit or Schedule, such reference shall be to a Section of, or an Exhibit or Schedule to, this Agreement unless otherwise indicated. The section headings contained in this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. Whenever the words “include”, “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation”. The words “hereof”, “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement. The word “extent” in the phrase “to the extent” shall mean the degree to which a subject or other thing extends, and such phrase shall not mean simply “if”. All terms defined in this Agreement shall have the defined meanings given such terms in this Agreement when used in any certificate or other document made or delivered pursuant to this Agreement unless otherwise defined therein. The definitions contained in this Agreement are applicable to the singular as well as the plural forms of such terms and to the masculine as well as to the feminine and neuter genders of such term.

(h) Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware (i.e., without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware). Each of the Parties hereby (i) irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of any state or federal court sitting in the State of Delaware in any action, suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement and agrees that all claims in respect of the action or proceeding may be heard and determined in any such court, (ii) waives, and agrees not to assert in any such suit, action or proceeding, any claim that (A) it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of such court or of any other court to which proceedings in such court may be appealed, (B) such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or (C) the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper, (iii) expressly waives any requirement for the posting of a bond by the Party bringing such suit, action or proceeding and (iv) consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing, certified mail, return receipt requested, a copy thereof to such Party at the address in effect for notices hereunder, and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing in this Section 10(h) shall affect or limit any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.
(i) Amendments and Waivers. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be valid unless the same shall be in writing and signed (i) by the Buyer and (ii) prior to the Closing, by Sellers holding a majority of the issued and outstanding Shares and following the Closing, by the Sellers’ Representative. No waiver by any Party of any default, misrepresentation, or breach of representation, warranty, covenant or agreement hereunder, whether intentional or not, shall be deemed to extend to any prior or subsequent default, misrepresentation or breach of representation, warranty, covenant or agreement hereunder or affect in any way any rights arising by virtue of any prior or subsequent such occurrence.
(j) Incorporation of Exhibits and Schedules. The Exhibits and Schedules identified in this Agreement are incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof.
(k) Disclosure Schedule. The Disclosure Schedule shall be arranged in paragraphs corresponding to the lettered paragraphs contained in the Sections of this Agreement; provided, however, that any event, fact or circumstance disclosed in any lettered paragraph of the Disclosure Schedule shall be deemed to be a disclosure for purposes of each other lettered paragraph of the Disclosure Schedule to the extent that it is reasonably apparent from the face of such disclosure that it would also qualify such other lettered paragraph. The inclusion of information in the Disclosure Schedule shall not be construed as an admission that such information is material to the Company, its Subsidiaries or the Sellers. Neither the specification of any dollar amount in any disclosure contained in the Disclosure Schedule nor the inclusion of any specific item in the Disclosure Schedule is intended to imply that such amount, or higher or lower amounts, or the item so included or other items, are or are not material, and no Party shall use the fact of the setting forth of any such amount or the inclusion of any such item in any dispute or controversy between the Parties as to whether any obligation, item or matter not described herein or included in the Disclosure Schedule is or is not material for purposes of this Agreement. In addition, matters reflected in the Disclosure Schedule are not necessarily limited to matters required by this Agreement to be reflected in the Disclosure Schedule. Such additional matters are set forth for informational purposes only and do not necessarily include other matters of a similar nature. The inclusion of any specific item in the Disclosure Schedule is not intended to imply that such item or other item is or is not in the Ordinary Course of Business, or is or is not material for purposes of this Agreement, and no Party shall use the fact of the inclusion of any such item in any dispute or controversy among the Parties as to whether any obligation, item or matter not described herein or included in the Disclosure Schedule is or is not in the Ordinary Course of Business, or is or is not material for purposes of this Agreement.
(l) Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction.
(m) Expenses. Each of the Buyer and the Company and its Subsidiaries and each Seller and Optionholder will bear its own costs and expenses (including legal fees and expenses) incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. For the avoidance of doubt, none of the Buyer, any of its Affiliates, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall pay any costs or expenses (including legal fees and expenses) incurred by any Seller or Optionholder, unless such costs or expenses (including legal fees and expenses) are included in Company Transaction Expenses. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, all transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other such Taxes, and all conveyance fees, recording charges and other fees and charges (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, shall be shared equally by the Buyer, on the one hand, and the Sellers and the Optionholders, on the other hand, when due, and the Buyer, or when required by Applicable Law, the Sellers’ Representative, will, at its own expense, file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to all such Taxes, fees and charges, and, if required by Applicable Law, the Parties will, and will cause their Affiliates to, join in the execution of any such tax returns and other documentation.
(n) Construction. The Parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the Parties and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any Party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement. Any reference to any federal, state, local or foreign statute or law shall be deemed to refer to such statute or law as extended, amended, replaced or reenacted from time to time, unless the context requires otherwise. In addition, any reference to any federal, state, local or foreign statute or law shall be deemed also to refer to all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, unless the context requires otherwise.
(o) Remedies. The Parties agree that irreparable damage, for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy, would occur if any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement. Each of the Parties agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief on the basis that there is adequate remedy at law or an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or equity. Any Party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such order or injunction.
(p) Waiver of Conflicts. Recognizing that Xxxxxxxx & Xxxxx LLP and Beauchamps Solicitors have acted as legal counsel to the Sellers, its Affiliates, the Sellers’ Representative and the Company and its Subsidiaries prior to the Closing, and that Xxxxxxxx & Xxxxx LLP and Beauchamps Solicitors intend to act as legal counsel to the Sellers, the Sellers’ Representative and their Affiliates (which will no longer include the Company and its Subsidiaries) after the Closing, each of Buyer and the Company hereby waives, on its own behalf and agrees to cause its Affiliates to waive, any conflicts that may arise in connection with Xxxxxxxx & Xxxxx LLP or Beauchamps Solicitors representing the Sellers, the Sellers’ Representative or their Affiliates after the Closing as such representation may relate to Buyer, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or the transactions contemplated herein.
(q) Waiver of Jury Trial. Each Party hereto hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, any right it may have to a trial by jury in respect of any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Each Party hereto (i) certifies that no representative, agent or attorney of any other Party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such Party would not, in the event of any action, suit or proceeding, seek to enforce the foregoing waiver and (ii) acknowledges that it and the other Parties hereto have been induced to enter into this Agreement, by, among other things, the mutual waiver and certifications in this Section 10(q).
