1.5Non-Assignable Assets.

(1)Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Assigned Contract or other Purchased Asset, including any Governmental Approval identified on Schedule 1.1(e), is not assignable or transferable (each, a “Non-Assignable Asset”) without the Consent of, or waiver by, a third party or action by a Governmental Authority (each, an “Assignment Consent”), either as a result of the provisions thereof or applicable Legal Requirements, and any such Assignment Consent is not obtained on or prior to the Closing Date, this Agreement and the related instruments of transfer shall not constitute an assignment or transfer of such Non-Assignable Asset, and such Non-Assignable Asset shall not be included in the Purchased Assets.  Instead, for a period of three (3) years after the Closing, each of the parties hereto shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all such Assignment Consents after the Closing Date; provided, however, that in connection therewith neither party nor any of its Affiliates shall be required to pay any sums of money (other than customary filing and application fees typically paid by a transferee) or make any concession therefor or otherwise agree to any action that would adversely affect such party or its Affiliates, or such party’s or its Affiliates’ businesses or operations.  After any such Assignment Consents are obtained Seller shall assign to Purchaser or its designee such Non-Assignable Assets for no additional consideration.  Following any such assignment, such assets shall be deemed Purchased Assets for purposes of this Agreement.  The fact of a failure to obtain any Consent, including an Assignment Consent shall not, in and of itself, result in a breach of this Agreement.

(2)For a period of three (3) years after the Closing and subject to payment of the Purchase Price by Purchaser pursuant to Section 2.1, the parties shall and shall cause their respective controlled Affiliates to, cooperate with each other in any commercially reasonable arrangement designed to provide Purchaser or its designee with all of the rights, benefits, burdens and obligations of the Non-Assignable Assets after the Closing as if the appropriate Assignment Consents had been obtained (including enforcement for the benefit of Purchaser of any and all rights of Seller or any of its Affiliates against any other party arising out of any breach or cancellation of any such Non-Assignable Assets by such other party and, if requested by Purchaser, acting as an agent on behalf of Purchaser or as Purchaser shall otherwise reasonably require), including by granting subleases or other rights and establishing arrangements whereby Purchaser or its designee shall undertake the obligation to perform under Assigned Contracts.

1.6Shared Contracts.  For a period of three (3) years after the Closing and subject to payment of the Purchase Price by Purchaser pursuant to Section 2.1, Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the counterparty to each Shared Contract set forth on Schedule 1.6 to consent to the partial assignment of those rights of Seller under such Shared Contract related to a Product, or to otherwise reasonably cooperate with Purchaser in Purchaser’s efforts to enter into a new contract with such counterparty on substantially the same terms as exist under such Shared Contract, in each case at Purchaser’s sole cost and expense, in which case such partial assignment shall be deemed an Assigned Contract; provided, however, that in connection therewith in no event shall Seller or any of its Affiliates be required to pay any sums of money or make any concession therefor or otherwise agree to any action that would adversely affect in any material respect Seller or its Affiliates, or Seller’s or its Affiliates’ businesses or operations, including its relationship with such counterparty to the Shared Contract.  The portion related to the Products of each such Shared Contract for which the parties have received consent to such partial assignment shall thereafter be deemed to be an Assigned Contract hereunder and, if applicable, Seller shall wholly assign, or partially assign, such portion to Purchaser as of the Closing.  Any Shared Contract for which the arrangements described in this Section 1.6 have not been entered into shall be a Non-Assignable Asset subject to Section 1.5.

Article 2​
​
CONSIDERATION FOR TRANSFER

2.1Purchase Price and Assumption of Assumed Liabilities.  As full consideration for the sale, transfer, conveyance, assignment and delivery to Purchaser of the Purchased Assets by Seller, Purchaser shall (i) deliver to Seller at the Closing an amount equal to One Hundred Million Dollars ($100,000,000) (the “Purchase Price”) and (ii) assume at the Closing and, in due course in accordance with the terms applicable thereto, pay, perform and discharge the Assumed Liabilities.  The Purchase Price shall be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the wire transfer address of Seller as provided to Purchaser prior to the Closing Date.

2.2Withholding Taxes.  Purchaser or any of its designated Affiliates shall be entitled to deduct and withhold (without duplication) from the Purchase Price or other payments required to be made in accordance with this Agreement, such amounts as Purchaser is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under any provision of federal, state, local or foreign Tax Legal Requirement. Any such withheld Taxes shall be treated as having been paid to Seller as part of the Purchase Price.

Promptly upon the Closing, the parties shall reasonably cooperate to facilitate any required updates to an FDA registration and medical device listing to de-list the Seller as the manufacturer or distributor of any of the Products, and shall cooperate with Purchaser to facilitate Purchaser updating its FDA registration and listing to list Purchaser as the manufacturer or distributor of each of the Products.

7.2Return of Assets; Transfer of Purchased Assets.

(1)In the event that any Excluded Asset or Excluded Liability is discovered by Purchaser or any of its Affiliates or identified to Purchaser in writing by Seller at any time after the Closing Date, possession or ownership of which or responsibility for which previously has been transferred to, or assumed by, Purchaser or any of its Affiliates in connection with the Transactions (i) Purchaser shall return or transfer and convey or assign (without further consideration) to Seller, and Seller shall accept or assume, as applicable, such Excluded Asset or Excluded Liability; (ii) Seller shall assume (without further consideration) any Liabilities associated with such Excluded Assets or Excluded Liabilities; and (iii) Purchaser and Seller shall execute such documents or instruments of conveyance or assumption and take such further acts which are reasonably necessary to effect the transfer or assignment of such Excluded Asset or Excluded Liability back to, or assumption of such Excluded Liability by, Seller.

7.4Confidentiality.  Except as required by law or administrative process and except for information which is now or hereafter becomes public other than as a result of a breach of this Section 7.4, without limitation to any other rights or obligations under the Confidentiality Agreement, for a period of five (5) years after the Closing Date, except that with regard to each Trade Secret for which the relevant period will be as long as such Trade Secret remains otherwise protectable as a trade secret, Seller shall not disclose to any other Person any Confidential Information used in or relating to the Products, the Purchased Assets, Purchaser or Purchaser’s business, whether in written, oral or other form; provided that nothing in this Section 7.4 shall in any way limit the disclosure of any such information to the Representatives of Seller in order to assist Seller with respect to the Transactions and the Transaction Agreements.

7.5Non-Competition; Non-Solicitation.

(1)For a period of five (5) years commencing on the Closing Date (the “Restricted Period”), Seller shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly: (i) engage in or assist others in engaging in the Restricted Business anywhere in the world; or (ii) have an interest in any Person that engages directly or indirectly in the Restricted Business anywhere in the world in any capacity, including as a partner, shareholder, member, employee, principal, agent, trustee or consultant; provided, that nothing in this Section 7.5(a) shall preclude Seller or any of its Affiliates from:

(1)owning, directly or indirectly, securities of any Person if Seller or its Affiliate is not a controlling Person of, or a member of a group which controls, such Person and does not, directly or indirectly, own 5% or more of any class of securities of such Person;

(2)entering into and consummating an agreement with any Person with respect to a merger, share exchange or other business combination transaction with respect to Seller immediately following which the beneficial owners of the voting capital stock of Seller immediately prior to the consummation of such transaction do not, directly or indirectly, beneficially own a majority of the combined voting power of the outstanding voting capital stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (or Persons performing a similar function) of the entity resulting from such transaction, and in the event of such transaction, the restrictions contained in this Section 7.5(a) shall not apply to such acquirer or its Affiliates; or

(3)acquiring any entity, assets or business that is engaged in a Restricted Business if (x) the revenues from the Restricted Business constitute less than twenty-five percent (25%) of the total revenues generated by such entity, assets or business or, (y) if such revenues constitute more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the total revenues generated by such entity, assets or business, Seller or its Affiliate, as applicable, divest the portion of such entity, assets or business that is engaged in a Restricted Business within twelve (12) months following the acquisition thereof; provided, that for purposes of this clause (y), Seller shall first offer to sell such divested portion to Purchaser and, if Purchaser elects to make an offer for the divested portion, which offer Seller agrees to consider in good faith, but such offer is not accepted by Seller, Seller shall divest such

portion solely for consideration that is equal or more favorable to Seller, in the aggregate, than as set forth in such rejected Purchaser offer.

(2)Without limiting the generality of the provisions of Section 7.5(a), Seller hereby agrees that during the Restricted Period, Seller will not, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries not to, directly or indirectly, through another Person, as employee, agent, consultant, director, equity holder, manager, co-partner or in any other capacity without Purchaser’s prior written consent, solicit any clients, purchasers or suppliers of Purchaser in any manner designed to take business away from Purchaser with respect to the Restricted Business.  For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall this Section 7.5(b) restrict any Seller communications made in the Ordinary Course of Business or communications relating to any business of Seller or its Affiliates as of the date of this Agreement or any business Seller may have in the future to the extent not related to the Products.

(3)Seller acknowledges and agrees that the territorial, time and scope limitations set forth in this Section 7.5 are reasonable and are properly required to protect Purchaser’s substantial investment hereunder and for the protection of Purchaser’s legitimate interest in client relationships, goodwill and trade secrets related to the Products and Purchased Assets, and that such limitations would not impose any undue burden upon Seller.  In the event that any such territorial, time or scope limitation is deemed to be invalid, prohibited or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, Xxxxxx agrees, and Seller submits, to the reduction of any or all of said territorial, time or scope limitations to such an area, period or scope as said court will deem reasonable or enforceable under the circumstances.  If such partial enforcement is not possible in such jurisdiction, the provision will be deemed severed as to such jurisdiction, and the remaining provisions of this Agreement will remain in full force and effect.

(4)Seller acknowledges and agrees that in the event of Seller’s, or any of its Affiliate’s actual or threatened breach of any of the provisions contained in this Section 7.5, Purchaser will have no adequate remedy at law.  Seller accordingly agrees that in the event of any actual or threatened breach of any of the provisions contained in this Section 7.5, Purchaser will be entitled to injunctive relief, without the need of posting bond or proving actual damages, as may be deemed necessary or appropriate by a court of competent jurisdiction.

(5)Purchaser and Seller each further covenant and agree that during the Restricted Period, neither party will make any disparaging remarks (whether or not such party deems such comments to be true and accurate) about the other party or its officers, directors or employees and each of Purchaser and Seller shall refrain from saying or doing anything that reasonably could hold the other party or its officers, directors or employees up to disrepute in the eyes of any other person or entity.  This subsection (e) does not, in any way, (i) restrict or impede Purchaser or Seller from exercising protected rights to the extent that such rights cannot be waived by agreement or from complying with any applicable law or regulation or a valid order of a court of competent jurisdiction or an authorized government agency; provided that such compliance does not exceed that required by the law, regulation or order or (ii) apply to Purchaser’s or Seller’s exercise of its rights under this Agreement or the Transaction Agreements.

Without limitation of, and subject to, Purchaser’s rights under the Contract Manufacturing Agreement, any Damages or other Liabilities arising with respect to or related to any Recall of any units of Product made on or after the Closing Date (including Products purchased under the Contract Manufacturing Agreement) shall be

Assumed Liabilities.  Upon the reasonable request of Purchaser, Seller shall cooperate and assist, and shall cause its Affiliates to cooperate and assist, Purchaser in implementing and effecting a Recall with respect to Products.

7.7Licensed Intellectual Property.  Schedule 7.7(a) sets forth a list of the Seller Licensed Intellectual Property and Schedule 7.7(b) sets forth a list of the Purchaser Licensed Intellectual Property.  Purchaser will have the right to utilize the Seller Licensed Intellectual Property, and Seller will have the right to utilize the Purchaser Licensed Intellectual Property, according to the terms of the Intellectual Property License Agreement following the Closing.

7.8Post-Closing Proceedings; Privilege Matters.  

(1)From and after the Closing, Seller, on the one hand, and Purchaser, on the other hand, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to, upon the reasonable written request of the other party, cooperate in connection with any Proceedings in which the requesting party may from time to time be involved relating to the Products prior to or after the Closing.  Any such cooperation shall be provided during normal business hours at a location and in a manner reasonably calculated to minimize disruption to such requested party or Persons.  Seller and Purchaser agree to reimburse each other for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, but excluding officers’ or other employees’ salaries, incurred by the other in connection with providing cooperation pursuant to this Section 7.8(a).

(2)From and after the Closing, except to the extent required by Legal Requirement or Governmental Authority, no party shall intentionally disclose to any third party, and no party shall permit any of its respective controlled Affiliates to intentionally disclose to any third party, any documents or other information that, if disclosed, would cause a waiver of any privilege that can be asserted under any Legal Requirement by the other party (i) if such waiver would reasonably be expected to have an adverse effect on the other party or any of its Affiliates, (ii) with respect to (A) the Products, the Purchased Assets or the Assumed Liabilities or (B) the process relating to the sale of the Products.

The provisions of this Section 7.10 are not intended to, and shall not be deemed to, constitute an authorization by either party to permit the other party to accept service of process on its behalf and neither party is or shall be deemed to be the agent of the other for service of process purposes.

9.1Purchase Price Allocation.  

(1)No later than ninety (90) days after the date hereof, Purchaser shall provide Seller with a schedule allocating the Purchase Price (plus the Assumed Liabilities and any other Liabilities deemed assumed by Purchaser for United States federal income Tax purposes) among the Purchased Assets in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code, the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, and any other applicable Tax laws that the Parties must satisfy with respect to an allocation of the Purchase Price (the “Purchase Price Allocation”).  If Seller provides no comments with respect to the Purchase Price Allocation by written notice to Purchaser within thirty (30) days after receipt by Seller of the Purchase Price Allocation, then the Purchase Price Allocation shall be deemed final, binding and conclusive for all purposes of this Agreement and with respect to any Tax filings made in connection with the actions and transactions contemplated by this Agreement.  If Seller provides any comments with respect to the Purchase Price Allocation by written notice to Purchaser within thirty (30) days after receipt by Seller of the Purchase Price Allocation, and sets forth in such written notice the disputed item or items and the basis for its objection in reasonable detail, then Seller and Purchaser shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any such dispute for a period of fifteen (15) days thereafter.  If, within fifteen (15) days of Purchaser’s receipt of a valid written notice of objection to the Purchase Price Allocation, Purchaser and Seller have not reached an agreement regarding the disputed item or items specified in such written notice, Purchaser and Seller shall submit (at the expiration of such fifteen (15) day period) all disputed items for resolution to an independent accountant.  The independent accountant shall deliver to Purchaser and Seller a written determination of any disputed item within twenty (20) days of submission of the dispute to the independent accountant, which determination shall be final, binding and conclusive on the parties hereto.  The fees and expenses of the independent accountant will be shared equally by Seller and Purchaser.

(2)Seller and Purchaser shall report all Taxes and file all Tax Returns (including amended Tax Returns and claims for refund) consistent with the Purchase Price Allocation (as appropriately adjusted), and shall take no position inconsistent therewith (including in any audits or examinations by any Tax Authority), unless, and then only to the extent, required by a Final Determination.  Seller and Purchaser (or any of their respective Affiliates) shall exchange completed and executed forms required by applicable law with respect to the allocation (including IRS Form 8594) at least thirty (30) days prior to the due date for filing such forms and shall cooperate in the filing of any such forms, including any amendments to such forms required as a result of any adjustment to the Purchase Price pursuant to this Agreement.

9.2Transfer Taxes.  Except as provided in Section 9.3 below, Seller shall be responsible for all Transfer Taxes incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.  The applicable Transfer Taxes shall be paid when due.  All Tax Returns and other documentation with

respect to all Transfer Taxes shall be timely filed by Seller.  Seller and Purchaser shall cooperate to facilitate Seller in filing all necessary documents (including all Tax Returns) with respect to all such Transfer Taxes in a timely manner.

9.3Property Taxes.  In the case of any Property Taxes on the Purchased Assets for any Straddle Period, the Taxes of Seller and Purchaser shall be allocated between the Pre-Closing Tax Period, which shall be for Seller’s account, and the Post-Closing Tax Period, which shall be for Purchaser’s account, as follows: (a) Taxes attributable to the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall equal the Property Taxes for such 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 attributable to the Post-Closing Tax Period shall equal the Property Taxes for such Straddle Period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days during the Straddle Period that are in the Post-Closing Tax Period and the denominator of which is the number of days in the Straddle Period.  The party required by applicable law to pay to the Tax Authority any such Property Taxes for a Straddle Period and to file any related Tax Return (the “Paying Party”) shall provide the other party (the “Non-Paying Party”) a statement setting forth the Non-Paying Party’s share of such Taxes for a Straddle Period as determined pursuant to this Agreement, together with such supporting evidence as is reasonably necessary to calculate such amount, and the Non-Paying Party shall reimburse the Paying Party its share of such Taxes, not later than five (5) Business Days before such Taxes are required to be paid.  The Paying Party shall furnish the Non-Paying Party a copy of any such Tax Return and a copy of a receipt showing payment of any such Taxes to the Tax Authority.

9.4Tax Contests.  Purchaser shall promptly notify Seller in writing upon receipt by Purchaser or any of its Affiliates of notice of any pending or threatened Tax audits, examinations or assessments which may materially affect the amount of any Tax which is, in whole or in part, an Excluded Liability; provided, that Purchaser’s failure to provide such timely notice shall not negate Purchaser’s right to indemnity for such Taxes unless it impairs Seller’s legal right to contest such Taxes.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 11.4, Seller shall have the sole right to control the contest and resolution of any Tax audit, examination, assessment or other administrative or court proceeding relating to (each a “Tax Contest”) any Tax which is, in whole or in part, an Excluded Liability, and in each case to employ counsel of its choice at its expense, provided, that, if the resolution of such Tax Contest could increase the Tax liability of, or reduce any Tax benefit available to, Purchaser or any of its Affiliates for any Post-Closing Tax Period, Seller shall not settle, discharge, compromise, or otherwise dispose of such Tax Contest if such disposition would result in, or otherwise involve, shifting any receipts, revenues, income, or profits, from a Pre-Closing Tax Period to a Post-Closing Tax Period or otherwise would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse consequence to Purchaser or any of its Affiliates without obtaining the prior written consent of Purchaser, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.  Neither Purchaser nor any of its Affiliates may settle any Tax Claim relating, in whole or in part, to any Tax which is an Excluded Liability without the prior written consent of Seller, which consent may be withheld in the sole discretion of Seller.  Each of Purchaser and Seller shall, or shall cause their respective Affiliates to, furnish to each other copies of all correspondence received from any Tax Authority in connection with any Tax Contest or information request with respect to any taxable period for which the other party or its Affiliates may have Liability under this Agreement.

9.5Tax Cooperation.  After the Closing, each of Purchaser and Seller shall furnish, and cause their respective controlled Affiliates to furnish, to each other, upon request, as promptly as practicable, such information and assistance relating to the Purchased Assets as is reasonably necessary for the preparation or filing of all Tax Returns, the making of any election related to Taxes, the preparation for any audit by or dispute with any Tax Authority and the prosecution or defense of any claim, suit or proceeding relating to any Tax Return.  Each of Purchaser and Seller shall provide, or cause their respective controlled Affiliates to provide, timely notice to each other in writing of any pending or threatened Tax audit, examination,

assessment or other administrative or court proceeding with respect to the Purchased Assets for any taxable period for which the other party may have Liability under this Agreement.

Indemnitor shall not have assumed the defense of the Proceeding within twenty (20) days of notice of such Proceeding.

(2)If the Indemnitor shall assume the defense of any Proceeding, the Indemnitee shall be entitled to participate in any Proceeding at its expense, and the Indemnitor shall not settle such Proceeding unless (i) the settlement shall include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or the plaintiff of a full and unconditional release of the Indemnitee from all liability with respect to the matters that are subject to such Proceeding, the settlement does not contain any sanction or restriction upon the conduct of any business by the Indemnitee or its Affiliates and the settlement does not include any admission of wrongdoing or misconduct by any Indemnitee or its Affiliate, or (ii) the settlement otherwise shall have been approved by the Indemnitee, such approval not to be unreasonably conditioned, withheld or delayed.  The Indemnitor shall afford the Indemnitee the opportunity to participate in, though counsel chosen by the Indemnitee, but not control, any defense or settlement of any Proceeding controlled by the Indemnitor pursuant to Section 11.4.

(3)If the Indemnitor fails to notify the Indemnitee within twenty (20) days after receipt of notice of such Proceeding pursuant to Section 11.4(a) that the Indemnitor elects to assume the defense of the Proceeding, or to the extent that the Indemnitor elects not to assume the defense or is not entitled to assume or control the defense in accordance with this Section 11.4, then the Indemnitee shall have the right to assume and control the defense of the Proceeding and shall be reimbursed for its reasonable costs and expenses (including any attorney’s fees) incurred in connection therewith.  If the Indemnitee assumes its own defense of a Proceeding, the Indemnitee shall keep the Indemnitor reasonably informed as to the status of, and any material developments related to, the Proceeding, provide to the Indemnitor any documentation or information reasonably requested by the Indemnitor relating to such Proceeding, and shall consult with the Indemnitor, and consider in good faith the Indemnitor’s views, with respect to the defense strategy and budget for such Proceeding.  The Indemnitee shall not, without the written consent of the Indemnitor (which written consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), pay, compromise or settle any such Proceeding.

11.5Limits on Indemnification; Payment of Indemnifiable Damages.

(1)All representations and warranties contained in this Agreement and all claims with respect thereto shall terminate at and shall not survive the Closing; provided, however, that such termination shall not effect Purchaser’s ability to make any claim under the R&W Insurance Policy.  The Purchaser Indemnified Persons’ remedy for breaches of representations and warranties by Seller shall be satisfied solely from the R&W Insurance Policy and not in any event satisfied by or recoverable from Seller, except in the case of Fraud with respect to the representations and warranties set forth in Article 4; provided, however, that Seller shall reimburse Purchaser for an amount equal to one-half of the R&W Policy Retention Amount to the extent required pursuant to Section 11.9.  NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, PURCHASER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES, ON BEHALF OF ITSELF AND EACH OF ITS AFFILIATES AND OTHER PURCHASER INDEMNIFIED PERSONS, THAT NEITHER SELLER, NOR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES SHALL HAVE ANY DIRECT OR INDIRECT LIABILITY (DERIVATIVELY OR OTHERWISE) WITH RESPECT TO ANY BREACH OR INACCURACY OF ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, EXCEPT IN THE CASE OF FRAUD WITH RESPECT TO THE REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES SET FORTH IN ARTICLE 4 AND SELLER’S OBLIGATION TO REIMBURSE PURCHASER FOR AN AMOUNT EQUAL TO ONE-HALF OF THE R&W POLICY RETENTION AMOUNT TO THE EXTENT REQUIRED PURSUANT TO SECTION 11.9.  PURCHASER FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES, ON BEHALF OF ITSELF AND EACH OF ITS AFFILIATES AND OTHER PURCHASER INDEMNIFIED PERSONS, THAT FOLLOWING THE CLOSING PURCHASER’S ONLY RECOURSE IN THE EVENT OF ANY

BREACH OR INACCURACY OF ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY SHALL BE TO FILE A CLAIM UNDER THE R&W INSURANCE POLICY, EXCEPT IN THE CASE OF FRAUD WITH RESPECT TO THE REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES SET FORTH IN ARTICLE 4.  

(2)In the event a state of facts exists that would allow a Purchaser Indemnified Person to seek recovery under either the R&W Insurance Policy or Section 11.1, such Purchaser Indemnified Person must first seek recovery of such Damages under the R&W Insurance Policy, whether or not there is any retention amount due.

(3)In the case of Purchaser Damages pursuant to Section 11.1 or Seller Damages pursuant to Section 11.2(a) and Section 11.2(b), the amount of indemnification payments to which an Indemnitee shall be entitled under this Article 11 shall be made within five (5) Business Days after the date: (a) the amount of such payments are determined by written agreement between the Indemnitee and the Indemnitor; or (b) both such amount and the Indemnitor’s obligation to pay such amount have been determined by a final Order of any court of competent jurisdiction.  The Order of a court shall be deemed final when the time for appeal, if any, shall have expired and no appeal shall have been taken or when all appeals taken shall have been finally determined.  Any indemnification of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties pursuant to this Article 11 shall be effected by wire transfer of immediately available funds from Seller to an account designated by Purchaser, and any indemnification of the Seller Indemnified Parties pursuant to this Article 11 shall be effected by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Seller.

11.6Remedies Exclusive.  With the exception of the rights of the parties under Section 12.15 and any claims of Fraud with respect to the representations and warranties set forth in Article 4 and Article 5 which are proven and upon which a judgment entered in the involved proceeding shall be expressly based, Seller and Purchaser expressly agree that from and after the Closing the provisions of this Article 11 shall be the sole and exclusive remedy for all claims of breach or indemnification pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not limit any rights or remedies and for all claims pursuant to the other Transaction Agreements.

11.7Adjustment to Damages.

(1)The amount of any Damages for which indemnification is provided under Section 11.1 or Section 11.2 shall be net of (i) any amounts actually recovered by the Indemnitee pursuant to any indemnification by, or indemnification agreement with, any third party that is not an Affiliate of the Indemnitor, (ii) any insurance proceeds or other cash receipts or sources of reimbursement received from any third party that is not an Affiliate of such Indemnitor as an offset against such Damages (each third party that is not an Affiliate of such Indemnitor referred to in clauses (i) and (ii), a “Collateral Source”) and (iii) any Tax benefit available to such Indemnitee or its Affiliates that is attributable to such Damages.  If the amount to be netted hereunder in connection with a Collateral Source from any payment required under Section ‎11.1 or Section 11.2 is received after payment by the Indemnitor of any amount otherwise required to be paid to an Indemnitee pursuant to this ‎Article 11, the Indemnitee shall repay to the Indemnitor, promptly after such receipt, any amount that the Indemnitor would not have had to pay pursuant to this ‎Article 11 had such receipt been made at or prior to the time of such indemnification payment, and any excess recovery from a Collateral Source shall be applied to reduce any future payments to be made by the Indemnitor pursuant to Section 11.1 or Section 11.2. The provisions of this Article 11 are not intended to permit duplicate recoveries on the same Damages.  

(2)Each Indemnitee must mitigate in accordance with Legal Requirements any Damages for which such Indemnitee seeks indemnification under this Agreement. If such Indemnitee mitigates its Damages after the Indemnitor has paid the Indemnitee under any indemnification provision of

this Agreement in respect of such Damages, the Indemnitee must notify the Indemnitor and pay to the Indemnitor the extent of the value of the benefit to the Indemnitee of that mitigation, promptly after such benefit is received.  Each Indemnitee and its Affiliates shall use reasonable efforts to collect any amounts available under insurance coverage, or from any other Person alleged to be responsible, for any Damages payable under this Article 11.

11.8Tax Treatment of Indemnification.  For all Tax purposes, Purchaser and Seller agree to treat any indemnity payment (including all payments under the R&W Insurance Policy, which is an integral term of this transaction) under this Agreement as an adjustment to the Purchase Price unless otherwise required by a Final Determination.

11.9Reimbursement.  In the event the R&W Insurance Company determines that Purchaser is entitled to indemnification under the R&W Insurance Policy with respect to any loss, but that the retention under such policy is not yet satisfied, then upon Purchaser’s delivery of written notice of such to Seller, Seller shall promptly pay to Purchaser an amount equal to one-half of such indemnifiable losses in immediately available funds; provided, that in no event shall Seller be responsible for an amount exceeding fifty percent (50%) of the R&W Policy Retention Amount.

12.12Rights of Parties.  Except for Purchaser Indemnified Persons and Seller Indemnified Persons, nothing in this Agreement, whether express or implied, is intended to confer any rights or remedies

under or by reason of this Agreement on any persons other than the parties to it and their respective successors and permitted assigns, nor is anything in this Agreement intended to relieve or discharge the Liabilities of any third person to any party to this Agreement, nor shall any provision give any third person any right of subrogation or action over or against any party to this Agreement.
