All real estate and personal property Taxes, and all rents, utilities and other charges, against or payable by the owner of any of the Transferred Assets (including the Transferred Real Property) relating to a time period beginning prior to, and ending after, the Closing (collectively, “Property Taxes and Charges”) shall be prorated (based on the most recent available tax statement, latest tax valuation and latest bills or invoices, as applicable) as of the Closing and apportioned between the Seller and the Purchaser based on the number of days in the relevant taxable period that are prior to the Closing Date (for which the Seller shall be liable) and the number of days of such taxable or billing period that follows the Closing Date (for which the Purchaser shall be liable). Subject to this Section 6.9, if the Closing occurs before the tax rate is fixed for the then current fiscal or calendar year, whichever is applicable, for purposes of determining the amount payable by the Purchaser at the Closing, the proration of the corresponding Property Taxes and Charges shall be on the basis of the tax rate for the last preceding year applied to the latest assessed valuation. The portion of Property Taxes and Charges that are due and payable or estimated to be due and payable after the Closing, but which accrued prior to or on the Closing Date, and for which the Seller is liable pursuant to this Section 6.9, and for which the Purchaser will be obligated to pay, shall decrease the amount payable at the Closing by the Purchaser pursuant to Section 2.5. The portion of any Property Taxes and Charges that were paid prior to the Closing by the Seller and for which the Purchaser is liable pursuant to this Section 6.9, shall increase the amount payable at the Closing by the Purchaser pursuant to Section 2.5. After the Closing, upon receipt of any xxxx or assessment for Property Taxes and Charges, the Purchaser or the Seller, as applicable, shall present a statement to the other party setting forth the amount of such Property Taxes and Charges for which the other party is liable pursuant to this Section 6.9, taking into account any estimates of such Property Taxes and Charges that either increased or decreased the amount payable at the Closing by the Purchaser pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence and Section 2.5. As soon as is reasonably practicable (which shall not exceed ten (10) business days following the receipt thereof), the Purchaser shall pay to the Seller any refund, credit or other offset obtained by the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates solely in respect of any Property Taxes and Charges paid by the Seller pursuant to this Section 6.9.

6.10 Purchase Price Allocation for Tax Returns. Each party hereto agrees to file its Tax Returns for the Tax period in which the Closing occurs consistent with the purchase price for each of the Closing Production Assets and Closing Inventory, as described in Section 2.5.

6.11 Support of Transaction. Without limiting any covenant contained in this Article VI, the Purchaser and the Seller shall (a) each use reasonable best efforts to obtain all material consents and approvals of third parties that any of the Purchaser or the Seller or their respective Affiliates are required to obtain in order to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and (b) take such other action as may

reasonably be necessary or as another party may reasonably request to satisfy the conditions of Article IX or otherwise to comply with this Agreement and to consummate the transaction contemplated hereby as soon as practicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Seller or any of its Affiliates be obligated to bear any expense or pay any fee or grant any concession in connection with obtaining any consents, authorizations or approvals required in order to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

6.12 Lease Amendment. The Purchaser shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to deliver to the Seller a fully executed, valid and enforceable amendment or assignment, assumption and amendment of the Transferred Lease (the “Lease Amendment”) containing the terms specified in Exhibit D, including, for the avoidance of doubt, the terms set forth opposite the caption “Assignor Release” therein (the “Assignor Release”) at or prior to Closing, provided, that if, despite the Purchaser’s commercially reasonable efforts, the fully executed, valid and enforceable Lease Amendment containing the Assignor Release cannot be delivered at or prior to Closing, then Purchaser shall continue to use its commercially reasonable efforts to deliver such Lease Amendment as soon as possible after Closing. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall commercially reasonable efforts require Purchaser to make any payment (except as otherwise provided in Exhibit D) to any Person in order to deliver the Lease Amendment. Prior to the execution and delivery to the Seller of a duly executed, valid and enforceable instrument containing the Assignor Release, in no event shall the Purchaser execute any amendment, modification, or termination of or supplement to the Transferred Lease without the prior written consent of the Lessee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld so long as any such amendment includes the Assignor Release.

6.13 Further Assurances. Each party hereto agrees that, from time to time after the Closing Date, it will execute and deliver or cause its respective Affiliates to execute and deliver such further instruments, and take (or cause their respective Affiliates to take) such other action, as may be reasonably necessary to carry out the purposes and intents of this Agreement.

contained in this Agreement that by their nature are required to be performed after the Closing shall survive the Closing until fully performed or fulfilled, unless and to the extent only that non-compliance with such covenants or agreements is waived in writing by the party entitled to such performance. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentences of this Section 8.1, if the Purchaser or the Seller, as applicable, deliver written notice to the other party of a claim for indemnification for a breach of any representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth herein or in any certificate or document delivered pursuant to this Agreement (stating in reasonable detail, to the extent then known, the nature of, and basis for, any such claim for indemnification) within the applicable time periods set forth above, such claim shall survive until finally resolved or judicially determined.

8.2 Indemnification of the Purchaser. From and after the Closing, the Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, the Purchaser and its directors, employees, officers, Affiliates, partners and equity holders, and their respective successors and assigns (collectively, the “Purchaser Indemnified Parties”) from, against and in respect of any and all means all Losses based upon, arising out of or incurred as a result of any of the following:

(a) any breach of, or any inaccuracy in, any representation or warranty made by the Seller in this Agreement;

(b) any breach or default in performance by the Seller of its covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement; or

8.3 Indemnification of the Seller. From and after the Closing, the Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, the Seller and its directors, employees, officers, Affiliates, partners and equity holders and their respective Affiliates and its and their respective successors and assigns (collectively, the “Seller Indemnified Parties,” and together with the Purchaser Indemnified Parties, the “Indemnified Parties”) from, against and in respect of any and all Losses based upon, arising out of or incurred as a result of any of the following:

(a) any breach of, or inaccuracy in, any representation or warranty made by the Purchaser in this Agreement;

(b) any breach or default in performance by the Purchaser of any covenant or agreement of the Purchaser contained in this Agreement; or

8.4 Indemnification Claim Procedures.

(a) If any Action is commenced or threatened that may give rise to a claim for indemnification (an “Indemnification Claim”) against any Person entitled to indemnification under this Agreement (each, an “Indemnified Party”), then

such Indemnified Party shall promptly (i) notify the Indemnitor and (ii) deliver to the Indemnitor a written notice (A) describing in reasonable detail the nature of the Action, (B) including a copy of all relevant documentation served with respect to such Action, (C) including the Indemnified Party’s best estimate of the amount of Losses that may arise from such Action, and (D) describing in reasonable detail the basis for the Indemnified Party’s request for indemnification under this Agreement. Failure to notify the Indemnitor in accordance with this Section 8.4(a) will not relieve the Indemnitor of any liability that it may have to the Indemnified Party, except to the extent (1) the defense of such Action is prejudiced by the Indemnified Party’s failure to give such notice or (2) the Indemnified Party fails to notify the Indemnitor of such Indemnification Claim in accordance with this Section 8.4(a) prior to the Cut-Off Date.

(b) An Indemnitor may elect at any time to assume and thereafter conduct the defense of any Action subject to any such Indemnification Claim with counsel of the Indemnitor’s choice and to settle or compromise any such Action, and each Indemnified Party shall cooperate in all respects with the conduct of such defense by the Indemnitor (including the making of any related claims, counterclaim or cross complaint against any Person in connection with the Action) and/or the settlement of such Action by the Indemnitor; provided, however, that the Indemnitor will not approve of the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or compromise with respect to such Action without the Indemnified Party’s prior written approval (which must not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), unless the terms of such settlement provide solely for monetary damages and provide for a complete release of the claims that are the subject of such Action in favor of the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnified Party gives an Indemnitor notice of an Indemnification Claim and the Indemnitor does not, within thirty (30) days after such notice is given, (i) give notice to the Indemnified Party of its election to assume the defense of the Action or Actions subject to such Indemnification Claim and (ii) thereafter promptly assume such defense, then the Indemnified Party may conduct the defense of such Action; provided, however, that (A) the Indemnified Party will not agree to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or compromise with respect to such Action or Actions without the prior written consent of the Indemnitor (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) and (B) if at any time the Indemnitor acknowledges in writing that such Action is a Loss subject to this Article VIII, the Indemnitor may thereafter assume the defense of such Action.

(c) If any Indemnified Party becomes aware of any circumstances that may give rise to an Indemnification Claim for any matter not involving an Action, then such Indemnified Party shall promptly (i) notify the Indemnitor and (ii) deliver to the Indemnitor a written notice (A) describing in reasonable detail the nature of the circumstances giving rise to the Indemnification Claim, (B) including the Indemnified Party’s best estimate of the amount of Losses that may arise from such circumstances and (C) describing in reasonable detail the basis for the Indemnified Party’s request for indemnification under this Agreement. Failure to notify the Indemnitor in accordance with this Section 8.4(c) will not relieve the Indemnitor of any liability that it may have to the Indemnified Party, except to the extent (1) the defense of such Indemnification Claim is prejudiced by the Indemnified Party’s failure to give such

notice or (2) the Indemnified Party fails to notify the Indemnitor of such Indemnification Claim in accordance with this Section 8.4(c) prior to the Cut-Off Date.

(d) At the reasonable request of the Indemnitor, each Indemnified Party shall grant the Indemnitor and its representatives all reasonable access to the books, records, employees and properties of such Indemnified Party to the extent reasonably related to the matters to which the applicable Indemnification Claim relates. All such access shall be granted during normal business hours and shall be granted under the conditions which shall not unreasonably interfere with the business and operations of such Indemnified Party.

8.5 Limitations on Indemnification Liability. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, any claims an Indemnified Party makes under this Article VIII will be limited as follows:

(a) Indemnification Cap. The aggregate amount of Losses (excluding Losses for breaches of any Seller Fundamental Representations) for which the Purchaser Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 8.2(a) will not exceed $1,000,000 (the “Cap”), provided, that the Cap shall not apply to any Losses for which the Purchaser Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 8.2(a) with respect to a Seller Fundamental Representation.

(b) Claims Basket. Subject to the last sentence of this Section 8.5(b), the Purchaser Indemnified Parties shall not be entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 8.2(a) with respect to any claim for indemnification unless and until the amount of Losses (excluding costs and expenses of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties incurred in connection with making such claim under this Agreement) incurred by the Purchaser Indemnified Parties that are the subject of such claim exceeds $5,000 (the “Per-Claim Basket”), and the Purchaser Indemnified Parties shall only be entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 8.2(a) to the extent the aggregate amount of all Losses (excluding costs and expenses of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties incurred in connection with making such claim under this Agreement) incurred by the Purchaser Indemnified Parties for which the Purchaser Indemnified Parties are entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 8.2(a) (excluding amounts below the applicable Per-Claim Basket) exceeds $50,000 (the “Basket Amount”). The Seller Indemnified Parties shall not be entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 8.3(a) with respect to any claim for indemnification unless and until the amount of Losses incurred by the Seller Indemnified Parties that are the subject of such claim exceeds the Per Claim Basket, and the Seller Indemnified Parties shall only be entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 8.3(a) to the extent the aggregate amount of all Losses incurred by the Seller Indemnified Parties for which the Seller Indemnified Parties are entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 8.3(a) (excluding amounts below the applicable Per-Claim Basket) exceeds the Basket Amount, and the Seller Indemnified Parties shall only be entitled to indemnification for such Losses to the extent such Losses exceed the Basket Amount. This Section 8.5(b) shall not apply to any claim for indemnification under Section 8.2(a) with respect to a Seller Fundamental Representation.

(c) Losses Net of Insurance Proceeds and Other Third-Party Recoveries. All Losses for which any Indemnified Party would otherwise be entitled to indemnification under this Article VIII shall be reduced by the amount of insurance proceeds, indemnification payments and other third-party recoveries actually received by any Indemnified Party in respect of any Losses incurred by such Indemnified Party. In the event any Indemnified Party is entitled to any insurance proceeds, indemnity payments or any third-party recoveries in respect of any Losses for which such Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article VIII, such Indemnified Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain, receive or realize such proceeds, payments or recoveries, which in no event shall require any Person to initiate or threaten litigation. In the event that any such insurance proceeds, indemnity payments or other third-party recoveries are actually received by an Indemnified Party subsequent to receipt by such Indemnified Party of any indemnification payment hereunder in respect of the claims to which such insurance proceeds, indemnity payments or other third-party recoveries relate, appropriate refunds shall be made promptly by the relevant Indemnified Parties of all or the relevant portion of such indemnification payment.

(d) Assignment of Claims. If any Indemnified Party receives any indemnification payment pursuant to this Article VIII, at the election of the Indemnitor, such Indemnified Party shall assign to the Indemnitor all of its claims for recovery against third Persons as to such Losses, whether by insurance coverage, contribution claims, subrogation or otherwise.

(e) Consequential, Punitive and Certain Other Losses. No Indemnified Party shall be entitled to indemnification for any (i) special, punitive or exemplary damages, (ii) any loss of enterprise value, diminution in value of any business, damage to reputation or loss of goodwill, (iii) any lost profits, consequential, indirect or incidental damages or (iv) any damages calculated based on a multiple of profits, revenue or any other financial metric.

(f) No Duplicate Claims. In the event a Purchaser Indemnified Party or a Seller Indemnified Party, as the case may be, recovers Losses in respect of an Indemnification Claim, no other Purchaser Indemnified Party or Seller Indemnified Party, as applicable, may recover the same Losses in respect of a claim for indemnification under this Agreement.

8.6 Additional Matters. For purposes of this Article VIII, the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to have been made without any qualifications as to materiality, material adverse effect, specified dollar thresholds or similar qualifications set forth in any such representations and warranties. All indemnification payments pursuant to this Article VIII shall be made, together with interest, from the date that the Losses for which indemnification is sought were incurred to the date of payment, at the prime rate of Citibank, N.A., as in effect on the date of incurrence. To the extent permitted by applicable Law, any amounts payable under Article VIII shall be treated by the Purchaser and the Seller as adjustments to the Purchase Price.

ARTICLE IX

10.8 Binding Effect; Assignment.

or that any such action brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Process in any such action may be served on any party anywhere in the world, whether within or without the jurisdiction of any such court. Without limiting the foregoing, each party agrees that service of process on such party as provided in Section 10.5 shall be deemed effective service of process on such party.
