In the case of any taxable period that includes (but does not end on) the Closing Date (a “Straddle Period”), the amount of any Pre-Closing Taxes for such Straddle Period for any ad valorem tax on Assets used in the CBU Business will be deemed to be the amount of Tax for such taxable period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the total number of days in the taxable period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the total number of days in such Straddle Period. Seller and Buyer agree to adjust the amount to be paid by Buyer for the proration of the ad valorem tax on the Assets.

In the event that either party is requested or required (by oral question or request for information or documents in any Proceeding to disclose any such Confidential Information, such party will notify the other party promptly of the request or requirement so that the other party may seek an appropriate protective order or waive compliance with the provisions of this Section.

If the legal action in which the IP Professional Cause of Action is asserted contains other causes of action asserted by the Seller or its affiliates, Buyer shall not share in any recovery or award under those other causes of action. In the event that a legal action involves both IP Professional Causes of Action and other causes of action being asserted by Seller or its affiliates, the expense of asserting and prosecuting such legal action will be shared between Buyer and Seller on a pro rata basis as mutually agreed upon by the parties.

9.2 Indemnification by Buyer. From and after the Effective Time, Buyer will hold harmless, indemnify and defend and reimburse Seller and its permitted successors and assigns, and their respective officers, directors, employees, stockholders, agents and affiliates (each, a “Seller Indemnitee” and collectively, the “Seller Indemnitees”), from and against any and all Losses incurred by such Seller Indemnitee, whether or not involving a third party claim, which may arise out of (a) any misrepresentation, inaccuracy or breach by Buyer of any representation or warranty in this Agreement, the exhibits, the Disclosure Schedules or in any certificate or document delivered pursuant to this Agreement, (b) any other breach or violation by Buyer of any covenant or obligation under this Agreement, the exhibits, the Disclosure Schedules or in any certificate or document delivered pursuant to this Agreement, (c) any Assumed Liabilities, (d) the ownership or operations of the CBU Business or the Assets after the Effective Time; (e) any Taxes of Buyer or Taxes related to the Assets or the CBU Business for periods (or portions thereof) ending after the Effective Time, or (f) any claim by any person for brokerage or finder’s fees or commissions or similar payments based upon any agreement or understanding alleged to have been made by any such person with Buyer (or any person acting on its behalf) in connection with any of the transactions contemplated hereby; provided, however, that subject to the following sentence (i) there shall be no liability under Section 9.2(a) for any Loss unless the aggregate of all such Losses, but for this proviso, exceeds on a cumulative basis an amount equal to $50,000 (and then for all such Losses); and (ii) the aggregate liability of Buyer under Section 9.2(a) shall not under any circumstances exceed $375,000.

9.3 Calculation of Losses. Prior to the assertion of any claim for indemnification under this Section 9, the indemnified party shall utilize all reasonable efforts, consistent with normal commercial practices and policies, to mitigate such Losses. Recovery pursuant to this Section 9 shall in no event include any consequential, incidental, or punitive damages to Buyer or to Seller, including but not limited to, damages for lost profits, business losses or diminution in value of any asset whatsoever.

9.4 Notice and Defense of Claims. If any Buyer Indemnitee or Seller Indemnitee (each, an “Indemnitee”) receives notice or otherwise obtains knowledge of any matter with respect to which a person obligated to indemnify such Indemnitee (each, an “Indemnitor”) may become obligated to hold harmless or indemnify and reimburse Indemnitee under this Section 9, then Indemnitee will promptly deliver to Indemnitor a written notice describing such matter, provided that failure to promptly deliver such notice will not affect the indemnification obligation except to the extent the Indemnitor is prejudiced or injured thereby. If such matter involves a third party, Indemnitor will have the right, at its option, to assume the defense of such matter at its own expense and with its own counsel. If Indemnitor elects to and does assume the defense of such matter, (a) Indemnitee will fully cooperate as reasonably requested by Indemnitor in the defense or settlement of such matter, (b) Indemnitor will keep Indemnitee reasonably informed of developments and events relating to such matter, and (c) Indemnitee will have the right to participate, at its own expense, in the defense of such matter. Indemnitee will not settle or compromise such matter, without the Indemnitor’s prior written consent. If Indemnitor does not assume the defense of such matter, it may participate, at its own expense, in the defense thereof and Indemnitee will keep Indemnitor reasonably informed of developments and events relating to such matter.

9.5 Payments to Indemnified Parties. An Indemnitor with an indemnification obligation under this Section 9 will promptly reimburse each Indemnitee for all amounts owed under this Section 9 from time to time, at the Indemnitee’s request, as such amounts are incurred.

9.6 Sole Remedy. Buyer and Seller acknowledge and agree that their sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all claims relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (other than injunctive relief and any claim based on fraud or failure to pay the Adjustment Amount (if any)) shall be under the indemnification provisions set forth in this Section 9, and that such remedy shall be exercised solely by means of the exercise of their rights and remedies thereunder. In furtherance thereof, Buyer and Seller hereby waive to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, any and all other rights, claims and causes of action relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement that they may have under or based upon any federal, state, local or foreign statute, law, ordinance, rule or regulation or otherwise except under the indemnifications provision set forth in this Section 9.

10.5 Jurisdiction and Venue. If either party brings legal action against the other to enforce or declare the terms of this Agreement, the party will initiate the legal action in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan or in the Circuit Court of the State of Michigan, in Washtenaw County, and the legal action will thereafter be adjudicated exclusively within such court. Each party submits to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the federal and state courts as specified above. Each of the parties further agrees that service of any process, summons, notice or document by U.S. registered mail to such party’s respective address set forth in Section 10.12 shall be effective service of process for any Proceeding with respect to any matters to which it has submitted to jurisdiction in this Section 10.5.

10.8 Enforcement of Agreement. Each party acknowledges and agrees that the other party would be irreparably damaged if any of the provisions of this Agreement are not performed in accordance with their specific terms and that any breach of this Agreement by the other party could not be adequately compensated in all cases by monetary damages alone.

10.11 Waiver. Failure of any party to complain or any act or omission on the part of any other party in breach or default of this Agreement, no matter how long the same may continue, will not be deemed to be a waiver by the party of its rights hereunder. No waiver by any party at any time, express or implied, of any breach of any provision of this Agreement will be deemed a waiver of a breach of any other provision of this Agreement or a consent to any subsequent breach of the same or other provisions.

10.14 Remedies Cumulative. The rights and remedies of the parties to this Agreement are cumulative and not alternative. Neither any failure nor any delay by any party in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Agreement or any of the documents referred to in this Agreement will operate as a waiver of such right, power or privilege, and no single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege will preclude any other or further exercise of such right, power or privilege or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. No waiver that may be given by a party will be applicable except in the specific instance for which it is given and no notice to or demand on one party will be deemed to be a waiver of any obligation of that party or of the right of the party giving such notice or demand to take further action without notice or demand as provided in this Agreement or the documents referred to in this Agreement.
