7.1 Indemnification.

(f) Each of Quantum and the Vendor shall jointly and severally indemnify and save each of the Purchaser and its Affiliates and each of their respective directors, officers, employees and agents (collectively, the “Purchaser Indemnified Persons”) harmless from and against any Loss suffered or incurred by the Purchaser Indemnified Persons to the extent arising out of, or resulting from any breach of any representation, warranty or covenant of Quantum or the Vendor contained in this Agreement.

(g) The Purchaser shall indemnify and save the Vendor and its Affiliates and each of their respective directors, officers, employees and agents (collectively, the “Vendor Indemnified Persons”) harmless from and against any Loss suffered or incurred by the Vendor Indemnified Persons to the extent arising out of, or resulting from (i) any breach of any representation, warranty or covenant of the Purchaser contained in this Agreement and (ii) any failure by the Purchaser to fully satisfy, discharge or fulfil the Assumed Liabilities.

7.2 Notice of Claim.

An Indemnified Party shall promptly give notice to the Indemnitor of any Claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 7.1. Such notice shall specify whether the Claim arises as a result of a claim by a third party against the Indemnified Party (a “Third Party Claim”) or whether the Claim does not so arise (a “Direct Claim”), and shall also specify with reasonable particularity (to the extent that the information is available):

- 32 -

(a) the factual basis for the Claim; and

(b) the amount of the Claim, or, if an amount is not then determinable, an approximate and reasonable estimate of the likely amount of the Claim.

The failure to promptly provide such notice will not relieve the Indemnitor of any obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party, except to the extent that such failure prejudices the Indemnitor.

7.3 Direct Claims.

With respect to Direct Claims, following receipt of notice from the Indemnified Party of a Claim, the Indemnitor shall have thirty (30) days to make such investigation of the Claim as the Indemnitor considers necessary or desirable. For the purpose of such investigation, the Indemnified Party shall make available to the Indemnitor and its authorized representatives the information relied upon by the Indemnified Party to substantiate the Claim. If the Indemnified Party and the Indemnitor agree at or prior to the expiration of such 30 day period (or any mutually agreed upon extension thereof) to the validity and amount of such Claim, the Indemnitor shall immediately pay to the Indemnified Party the full agreed upon amount of the Claim. If the Indemnified Party and the Indemnitor do not agree within such period (or any mutually agreed upon extension thereof), the Indemnified Party and the Indemnitor agree that the dispute shall be submitted to the dispute resolution procedure under Article 8.

7.4 Third Party Claims

(a) With respect to any Third Party Claim, the Indemnitor shall have the right, at its own expense, to participate in or assume control of the negotiation, settlement or defence of such Third Party Claim and, in such event, the Indemnitor shall reimburse the Indemnified Party for all the Indemnified Party’s out-of-pocket expenses as a result of such participation or assumption. If the Indemnitor elects to assume such control, the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnitor, shall have the right to participate in the negotiation, settlement or defence of such Third Party Claim at its own expense and shall have the right to disagree on reasonable grounds with the selection and retention of counsel, in which case counsel satisfactory to the Indemnitor and the Indemnified Party shall be retained by the Indemnitor.

(b) Any Indemnified Party will have the right to employ separate counsel in any Third Party Claim and/or participate in the defence thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel will not be included as part of any Losses incurred by the Indemnified Party unless (i) such Indemnified Party has received an opinion of counsel, reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitor, to the effect that the interests of the Indemnified Party and the Indemnitor with respect to the Third Party Claim are sufficiently adverse to prohibit the representation by the same counsel of both parties under applicable ethical rules, or (ii) the employment of such counsel at the expense of the Indemnitor has been specifically authorized by the Indemnitor.

- 33 -

(c) If the Indemnitor fails to assume control as contemplated in Section 7.4(a) in a timely manner or thereafter fails to defend any such Third Party Claim in a timely manner, the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to assume such control. In addition, the Indemnitor shall reimburse the Indemnified Party’s out-of-pocket expenses, including expenses of counsel, as a result of such assumption.

(d) The Indemnified Party shall not negotiate, settle, compromise or pay any Third Party Claim except with the prior written consent of the Indemnitor (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). The Indemnitor shall not settle or compromise any Third Party Claim except with the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) if such settlement or compromise involves an admission of guilt or liability on the part of the Indemnified Party or would lead to liability or create any financial or other obligation on the part of the Indemnified Party for which the Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification under this Agreement.

(e) The Indemnified Party and the Indemnitor shall cooperate fully with each other with respect to Third Party Claims, shall keep each other fully advised with respect thereto (including supplying copies of all relevant documentation promptly as it becomes available) and shall each designate a senior officer who will keep informed about and be prepared to discuss the Third Party Claim with his counterpart and with counsel at all reasonable times.

7.5 Additional Rules and Procedures

The obligation of an Indemnitor to indemnify the Indemnified Party in respect of Claims shall also be subject to the following:

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no Indemnified Party shall be entitled to recover from another Party (including an Indemnitor), for any Losses, any amount in excess of the actual compensatory damages, court costs and reasonable lawyers’ and other advisor fees suffered by such Indemnified Party. The Parties waive any right to recover punitive, incidental, indirect, special, exemplary and consequential damages, and economic loss and damages in respect of loss of opportunity arising in connection with or respect to this Agreement. The provisions of this Section 7.5(a) shall not apply to indemnification for a Third Party Claim.

(b) If the amount of any Loss, at any time subsequent to the making of an indemnity payment in respect thereof, is reduced by an Indemnified Party by recovery, settlement or otherwise under our pursuant to any insurance coverage, or pursuant to any claim, recovery, settlement or payment by, from or against any Person (other than an Indemnitor), the amount of such reduction, together with any interest earned on such amount, if applicable, less any deductibles, costs or expenses incurred in connection therewith, shall be promptly paid to by the Indemnified Party to the Indemnitor.

- 34 -

7.6 Indemnification Claims.

An Indemnified Party shall only be entitled to make any claim for indemnification under Section 7.1 to the extent that the aggregate amount of all such claims made in good faith for indemnification exceeds $25,000, but thereafter such Indemnified Party shall be entitled to claim indemnification for any Loss in excess of $5,000. Notwithstanding anything else in this Article 7, the maximum aggregate amount of liability of an Indemnitor under this Agreement shall be limited to the amount of $400,000, except, (i) in the case of Claims based on the absence of, or deficiency in, the title of the Vendor to the Purchased Assets, the maximum aggregate amount of liability of the Vendor and Quantum as an Indemnitor under this Agreement shall be limited to the amount of the Purchase Price, (ii) in the case of Claims based on Purchaser’s failure to satisfy the Assumed Liabilities, the maximum aggregate amount of liability of the Purchaser as an Indemnitor under this Agreement shall be limited to the amount of the Purchase Price, and (iii) in the case of Claims based on fraud, wilful misconduct or gross negligence, the maximum amount of liability of an Indemnitor under this Agreement shall not be limited.

7.7 Tax Status of Payments

Any payment made by or on behalf of the Vendor pursuant to this Article 7 shall constitute a reduction of the Purchase Price and any payment made by or on behalf of the Purchaser pursuant to this Article 7 shall constitute an increase in the Purchase Price. If any payment made by the Vendor or the Purchaser pursuant to this Article 7 is deemed by the ETA to include GST/HST, or is deemed by any applicable provincial or territorial legislation to include a similar value added or multi-staged tax, the amount of such payment shall be increased accordingly.

7.8 Exclusive Remedy

The rights of indemnity of the Vendor and the Purchaser set forth in this Article 7 are the sole and exclusive remedies of each such Party for monetary compensation in respect of any misrepresentation, incorrectness in or breach of any representation or warranty, or breach of covenant, by the other of them under this Agreement but are not, for clarity, the sole and exclusive remedy for equitable relief or under any instruments or documents delivered pursuant to this Agreement. Accordingly, each of the Vendor and the Purchaser waives, from and after the Closing, any and all rights, remedies and claims that one such Party may have against the other for monetary compensation, whether at law, under any statute or in equity (including but not limited to claims for contribution or other rights of recovery arising under any Environmental Laws, claims for breach of contract, breach of representation and warranty, negligent misrepresentation and all claims for breach of duty), or otherwise, directly or indirectly, relating to the provisions of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement other than as expressly provided for in this Article 7, other than those arising with respect to any fraud, willful misconduct or gross negligence, and other than those provided for in other documents or instruments delivered pursuant to this Agreement. The Parties agree that if a Claim for indemnification is made by one Party in accordance with Section 7.1(a) or 7.1(b) as the case may be and there has been a refusal by the other Party to make payment or otherwise provide satisfaction in respect of such Claim, then a legal proceeding is the appropriate means to seek a remedy for such refusal. This Article 7 shall remain in full force and effect in all circumstances and shall not be terminated by any breach (fundamental, negligent

- 35 -

or otherwise) by any Party of its representations, warranties or covenants under this Agreement or under any closing document or by any termination or rescission of this Agreement by any Party.

7.9 Termination of Obligations

The obligations of the Parties under Section 7.1 shall terminate on the date which is 15 months after the Closing Date, except with respect to bona fide Claims for indemnification set forth in written notices given prior to such date; provided that Claims based on the absence of, or deficiency in, the title of the Vendor to the Purchased Assets and Claims based on intentional misrepresentation or fraud shall terminate on the date which is the last day of the 15 year ultimate limitation period pursuant to the Limitations Act, 2002.

7.10 Trustee and Agent

Each of the Purchaser and the Vendor acknowledges that the other of the Purchaser and the Vendor is acting as trustee and agent for the remaining Purchaser Indemnified Persons or Vendor Indemnified Persons, as the case may be, on whose behalf and for whose benefit the indemnity in Sections 7.1(a) and 7.1(b), as the case may be, is provided and that such remaining indemnified Persons shall have the full right and entitlement to take the benefit of and enforce such indemnity notwithstanding that they may not individually be parties to this Agreement. Each of the Purchaser and the Vendor agrees that the other of the Purchaser and the Vendor may enforce the indemnity for and on behalf of such remaining indemnified Persons and, in such event, the Party from whom indemnification is sought will not in any proceeding to enforce the indemnity by or on behalf of such remaining indemnified Persons assert any defence thereto based on the absence of authority or consideration or privity of contract and irrevocably waives the benefit of any such defence.

Article 8 ARBITRATION

All disputes, disagreements, controversies, questions or claims arising out of or relating to this Agreement, including with respect to its formation, execution, validity, application, interpretation, performance, breach, termination or enforcement (“Disputes”) shall be determined by arbitration under the Arbitration Act, 1991 (Ontario) (the “Arbitration Act”), provided that:

(f) an arbitrator may apportion the costs of the arbitration, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of the parties, between or among the parties in such manner as the arbitrator considers reasonable, provided that an arbitrator shall not award costs on a distributive basis; and
