6. Post Closing Covenants and
Agreements. From and after the Closing Date:
6.1 Further Assurances by
Seller. The Seller will, upon request of Purchaser from time
to time, execute and deliver, and use its best efforts to cause other persons to
execute and deliver, to Purchaser all such further documents and instruments,
and will do such other acts, as Purchaser may reasonably request more completely
to consummate and make effective the Closing of the Agreement.
6.2 Further Assurances by
Purchaser. Purchaser will, upon request of Seller from time to
time, execute and deliver, and use its Best Efforts to cause other persons to
execute and deliver, to Seller all such further documents and instruments, and
will do such other acts, as Seller may reasonably request more completely to
consummate and make effective the Closing of the Agreement.
6.3 Communication with
Clients. If Purchaser requests, Seller shall deliver to
Purchaser, or directly to Seller's clients, a letter executed by Seller in form
and substance acceptable to Purchaser pursuant to which Seller shall advise each
addressee that the Seller's business has been transferred to
Purchaser.
7. Indemnification.
7.1 By
Seller. Seller agrees to indemnify, defend, release and hold
Purchaser, its affiliates, subsidiaries or related companies, and their
officers, directors, employees, representatives and agents, harmless from and
against any and all damages, losses (including loss of goodwill and damage to
reputation), penalties, interest obligations, tax liabilities and other
liabilities, claims, judgments, causes of action, deficiencies, costs and
expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and other costs) (collectively,
"Claims"), asserted against or incurred or required to be paid by Purchaser or
any other indemnified person on account of or incident or pursuant to: (a)
breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by Seller in
this Agreement or in any Contract or document delivered pursuant to or in
connection with this Agreement; (b) the operation of Seller's business or the
ownership, maintenance, use or operation of Seller's assets prior to the
Closing; (c) the failure of Seller to comply with applicable bulk transfer laws,
to the extent such failure causes Purchaser to be liable for liabilities of
Seller other than the liabilities which Purchaser specifically assumes pursuant
to this Agreement; and (d) any and all lawsuits against Seller or involving any
of the assets of Seller which are based on a cause of action arising before the
Closing Date.
7.2 By
Purchaser. Purchaser agrees to indemnify, defend, release and
hold Seller and Seller's officers, directors, employees, representatives and
agents harmless from and against any and all Claims asserted against, incurred
or required to be paid by Seller or any other indemnified person on account of
or incident or pursuant to: (a) breach of any representation, warranty, covenant
or agreement made by Purchaser in this Agreement or in any contract or document
delivered pursuant to
or in
connection with this Agreement; (b) the business or operations of Purchaser
before, at or after the date of this Agreement; and (c) the ownership,
maintenance, use or operation of the Purchased Assets after the
Closing.
7.3 Indemnification
Procedure.
(a) Notice. With respect
to any matter for which indemnification is claimed pursuant to Section 7.1, the
indemnified person(s) will notify Seller in writing promptly after becoming
aware of such matter. With respect to any matter for which indemnification is
claimed pursuant to Section 7.2, the indemnified person(s) will notify Purchaser
in writing promptly after becoming aware of such matter. A failure or
delay to promptly notify an indemnifying person of a Claim will only relieve
such person of its obligation pursuant to this Section 8 to the extent, if at
all, that such person is prejudiced by reason of such failure or
delay.
(b) Defense of
Claim. Promptly after receipt of any notice pursuant to
Section 7.3(a), the indemnifying person(s) shall defend, contest, settle,
compromise or otherwise protect the indemnified person(s) against any such Claim
at its (their) own cost and expense. Each indemnified person will
have the right, but not the obligation, to participate, at its own expense, in
the defense by counsel of its own choosing; provided, however, that the
indemnifying person will be entitled to control the defense unless the
indemnified person has relieved the indemnifying person in writing from
liability with respect to the particular matter. The indemnified
person shall reasonably cooperate with the indemnifying person's requests, and
at the indemnifying person's expense (including, but not limited to,
indemnifying person's paying or reimbursing the indemnified person's reasonable
attorneys' fees and investigation expenses), concerning the defense of the
Claim. The indemnifying party shall include the indemnified party in
any settlement discussions.
(c) Failure to
Defend. If the indemnifying person does not timely defend,
contest or otherwise protect against a Claim after receipt of the required
notice, the indemnified person will have the right, but not the obligation, to
defend, contest or otherwise protect against the same, make any compromise or
settlement thereof, and recover the entire cost thereof from the indemnifying
person, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees, disbursements
and all amounts paid as a result of such suit, action, investigation and
Claim.
7.4 Survival of Representations
and Warranties. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to
the contrary, the representations and warranties of the parties contained in
this Agreement shall survive the Closing for a period of two (2) years
only.
8. Miscellaneous.

among the parties regarding the subject matter hereof and supersedes in all
respects any and all prior oral or written agreements or understandings among

limited to, that certain letter of intent dated February 11, 2010 between Seller
and Purchaser). There are no representations, warranties or covenants
among the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement, except
as set forth in this Agreement. This Agreement cannot be modified or
terminated, nor may any of its provisions be waived, except by a written
instrument signed by the party(ies) against which enforcement is
sought. Any waiver by any party of the strict performance of any of
the terms, conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall not be construed as
a waiver thereof for the future, but shall be considered a waiver only in the
particular instance, for the particular purpose, and at the time when and for
which it is given.
8.3 Governing
Law. This Agreement has been made and entered into in the
State of North Carolina and shall be governed by and construed and enforced in

Agreement.
8.6 Counterparts. This
Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be
deemed an original and all of which together shall be deemed to be one and the
same instrument. This Agreement shall become effective when one or more

the other parties. Facsimile copies or electronically mailed or transmitted
(e-mailed) images of a signed document or instrument (or just the executed
signature pages), including this Agreement, any amendment or addendum to this
Agreement, and any Notice, shall be: (i) effective and binding on the parties,
and the parties shall accept them as if the facsimile signatures or e-mailed
images of signatures were originals; and (ii) admissible in any legal action or
proceeding as the best evidence of the parties’ agreement or of a party’s Notice
or other action, as may be applicable. A party submitting a signature by
facsimile or e-mail shall promptly afterward submit the original signature to
the other party for retention in the records of the other party, but the
submission or the other party’s receipt of the original shall not be a condition
to the effectiveness of the facsimile or e-mail signature.
8.7 Severability. The
invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not
affect the validity or enforceability of any other provisions of this
Agreement.
8.8 Terminology. Unless
the context clearly indicates otherwise, terms used in this Agreement in the
masculine include the feminine and the neuter, terms used in the singular
include the plural and terms used in the plural include the
