(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, but subject to the remaining provisions of this Section 4.03, to the extent that the sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or delivery, or attempted sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or delivery to Buyer of any Acquired Asset would require the consent or authorization of a Person who is not a party to this Agreement (including any Governmental Authority), and such consent shall not have been obtained prior to the Closing, this Agreement shall not constitute a sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or delivery, or an attempted sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or delivery of such Acquired Asset, unless and until such consent has been obtained or Buyer has notified Seller that any such Acquired Asset should be transferred or assigned hereunder notwithstanding the absence of such consent.

(b) Following the Closing, Seller and Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts, and shall cooperate with each other, to obtain any such required consent, or any release, substitution or amendment required to novate all Liabilities under any and all Acquired Assets, and all other Liabilities, that constitute Assumed Liabilities, or to obtain in writing the unconditional release of all parties to such arrangements.

(c) To the extent that any Acquired Asset or Assumed Liability cannot be transferred to Buyer following the Closing pursuant to this Section 4.03, Seller and Buyer shall use reasonable efforts to enter into such lawful and reasonable arrangements (such as subleasing, sublicensing or subcontracting) to provide to the Party the economic and, to the extent permitted under applicable Law, operational equivalent of the transfer of such Acquired Asset and/or Assumed Liability to Buyer as of the Effective Time and the performance by Xxxxx of its obligations with respect thereto.

5. Purchase Price; Milestone Payments; Closing; Allocation.

5.01 Purchase Price. In consideration of the transactions described in Section 2, and the performance by Seller of all of the terms, covenants and provisions of this Agreement on its part to be kept and performed, Buyer shall pay to Seller, in accordance with Section 5.03(b), an aggregate amount equal to Twenty Million and 00/100 Dollars ($20,000,000) consisting of $6,000,000 in cash and $14,000,000 in the Note Amounts (collectively, the “Purchase Price”).

5.02 Milestone Payments. Subject to the provisions of this Section 5.02, Buyer shall make additional payments to Seller as set forth below.

(a) Sales Milestone Payments. Buyer shall pay Seller the following sales milestone payments (each a “Milestone Payment,” and collectively, the “Milestone Payments”):

(i) Upon the first time the Business achieves Net Sales of One Hundred Million and 00/100 Dollars ($100,000,000) during a calendar year, Buyer shall pay to Seller Ten Million and 00/100 Dollars ($10,000,000).

(ii) Upon the first time the Business achieves Net Sales of Two Hundred Million and 00/100 Dollars ($200,000,000) during a calendar year, Buyer shall pay to Seller Twenty Million and 00/100 Dollars ($20,000,000).

(iii) Upon the first time the Business achieves Net Sales of Five Hundred Million and 00/100 Dollars ($500,000,000) during a calendar year, Buyer shall pay to Seller Fifty Million and 00/100 Dollars ($50,000,000).

(b) The Milestone Payments shall be payable in accordance with Section 5.02(c). For clarity, (i) no more than one (1) Milestone Payment shall be made for the achievement of each Net Sales Milestone, but (ii) more than one (1) Milestone Payment may be paid in any given calendar year (for example, if in calendar year 2025, the Business achieves $200,000,000 of Net Sales but had not previously met any Net Sales Milestone, Seller would be entitled to a Milestone Payment of $30,000,000 (in respect of the $100,000,000 Net Sales Milestone and the $200,000,000 Net Sales Milestone).

(i) Within 60 days following the end of each calendar quarter following the Closing, Buyer shall provide Seller with a report (the “Net Sales Statement”) containing the following information with respect to any Net Sales during such calendar quarter: (A) the gross sales of the Business Product, (B) the deductions therefrom associated with Net Sales, (C) any adjustments from prior Net Sales Statements, (D) the resulting calculation of Net Sales, and (E) with respect to the calendar quarter ending December 31, the resulting calculation of the Milestone Payments owed to Seller. With respect to each calendar quarter, all calculations of Net Sales in respect of any calendar quarter (or portion thereof) shall be subject to reconciliation based on the final Net Sales for the applicable calendar quarter (or portion thereof) in the Net Sales Statement provided the immediately following calendar quarter, and thereafter subject to final reconciliation based on the final Net Sales for the applicable calendar year in which such calendar quarter occurs based on the audited financial statements for such calendar year, with such final reconciliation to be prepared by Buyer and delivered to Seller no later than 120 days after the end of such fiscal year.

(ii) Upon Seller’s reasonable request, Buyer shall provide to Seller back-up information used to prepare any Net Sales Statement(s). Buyer shall keep such records (and shall require its Affiliates, licensees, sublicensees, assignees and other transferees to keep such records) as shall be reasonably necessary to support the calculations of Net Sales as set forth in each Net Sales Statement. Each Net Sales Statement and all records of Buyer, its Affiliates, licensees, sublicensees, assignees and other transferees subject to inspection pursuant to this Section 5.02(c) shall be deemed to be Confidential Business Information. The Buyer shall, upon Seller’s written request (and using an independent accountant designated by Seller and reasonably satisfactory to the Buyer, the “Designated Auditor”), inspect and audit the Buyer’s books and records used to prepare the Net Sales Statement(s), no more often than once on an annual basis, regarding the Milestone Payments. The Seller and Buyer agree that each party shall bear its own costs and expenses relating to such inspection and audit of the Buyer’s books and records other than the expenses of the Designated Auditor, which shall be borne by Seller; provided, that if the amount of the Milestone Payments that should have been made to Seller is equal to or greater than 120% of the amount of the Milestone Payments actually made to Seller during the applicable audited period, then all of the expenses of the Designated Auditor relating to such inspection or audit shall be borne and paid for by Buyer up to the maximum dollar amount of $100,000.

(iii) If, as a result of any audit as described in Section 5.02(b)(ii), the Designated Auditor reasonably concludes that Buyer has underreported the Net Sales for any audited period, Seller shall inform Buyer of the Net Sales for such audited period as calculated by the Designated Auditor in a written notice setting forth the Designated Auditor’s calculation of such Net Sales in reasonable detail. If Buyer does not dispute the Designated Auditor’s calculation of Net Sales set forth in such notice within the 30-day period set forth above, Net Sales for such audited period shall be deemed to be the amount set forth in such notice and if, based upon such calculation, any additional amounts are due to Seller, Buyer shall pay such amounts to Seller in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds into an account or accounts designated by Seller within five Business Days after the expiration of the 30-day period set forth above. In the event the Designated Auditor reasonably concludes that Xxxxx has overreported the Net Sales for any audited period, the Seller shall pay such amounts to Buyer in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds into an account or accounts designated by Buyer within five Business Days of such conclusion.

(iv) In the event Buyer disputes the Designated Auditor’s calculation of Net Sales as set forth in such notice within 30 days after receipt of such notice, Buyer will so notify Seller in writing (the “Dispute Notice”) within such 30-day period and the parties will attempt thereafter to resolve such dispute amicably and, if they cannot do so by the end of such 30-day period, they will (unless the parties mutually agree in writing to continue their efforts to resolve such dispute) submit the dispute to a mutually agreeable nationally recognized firm of independent certified public accountants as to which the Seller and Buyer mutually agree, to resolve such disputes (the “Arbitrating Accountant”). The Arbitrating Accountant shall be provided with (i) a copy of this Agreement, (ii) the applicable Net Sales Statement(s) and related supporting detail prepared by Buyer, (iii) the Dispute Notice and any supporting detail accompanying such Dispute Notice prepared by Buyer, and (iv) any other information requested by the Arbitrating Accountant as necessary or appropriate in resolving such dispute. The Arbitrating Accountant shall address only those issues in dispute pursuant to this Section 5.02(b)(iv), may not assign a value to any item greater than the greatest value for such item claimed by a party or less than the smallest value for such item claimed by a party, and may not apply any accounting methods, treatments, principles or procedures other than as set forth in this Agreement (including the definitions herein). Within 30 days following appointment, the Arbitrating Accountant shall deliver its determination of the Net Sales Statement calculated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and setting forth its resolution of the disputes. The Arbitrating Accountant shall also apportion its fees and expenses between Seller, on the one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand, in proportion to the difference between the relative position of each party and the Arbitrating Accountant’s ultimate determination with respect to the amount of Net Sales as set forth in the Net Sales Statement(s). The decision and award of the Arbitrating Accountant, including the apportionment of its fees, shall be final and binding on the parties and shall be subject to confirmation and entry of judgment in accordance with applicable Law. In no event shall the Arbitrating Accountant award either party consequential, incidental or punitive damages. If, based upon the Arbitrating Accountant’s decision, any additional amounts are due to Seller, Buyer shall pay such amounts to Seller in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds into an account or accounts designated by Seller within five Business Days after the decision of the Arbitrating Accountant is rendered. In the event the Arbitrating Accountant reasonably concludes that Xxxxx has overreported the Net Sales for any audited period, the Seller shall pay such amounts to Buyer in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds into an account or accounts designated by Buyer within five Business Days of such determination.

(v) Each Milestone Payment shall be made by electronic transfer in immediately available funds via either a bank wire transfer, an ACH (automated clearing house) mechanism, or any other means of electronic funds transfer, at Buyer’s election, to such bank account or accounts as Seller shall designate in a notice at least ten (10) Business Days before the payment is due.

(vi) If any Milestone Payment owed to Seller under this Agreement is not paid by Buyer within a reasonable amount of time, in any event not to exceed 30 days, following the due date of such payment, then Buyer shall pay interest on such past due Milestone Payment at the “prime rate” (as published in The Wall Street Journal), or if lower, the maximum interest rate permitted under applicable Law, such interest to run from the date upon which payment of such amount became due until payment in full thereof.

(d) Milestone Payment Covenants.

(i) Buyer does not make any representation or warranty of any kind, and does not express any opinion, as to the likelihood or amount of any Milestone Payments. In addition, the Seller agrees and acknowledges that the Buyer and its Affiliates may make from time to time such business and strategic decisions, including allocation of resources and employment decisions, as it deems appropriate in its sole discretion in the conduct of its businesses (including the Business). The Seller will have no right to claim any lost Milestone Payments or other damages as a result of any business or strategic decision made by the Buyer or its Affiliates after the Closing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, from and after the Closing, Buyer shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries not to, take any action, or omit to take any action, a primary purpose of which is to reduce the amount of Milestone Payments otherwise due to Seller. It is understood and agreed that a Business Transfer will not relieve Buyer of its obligation under this Section 5.02.

(ii) Buyer and its Affiliates may not, directly or indirectly, by a sale or swap of assets, merger, reorganization, joint venture, lease, license, sublicense or any other transaction or arrangement, sell, transfer, license, sublicense, convey or otherwise dispose of all or a portion of their respective rights in and to the Business to a third party (other than Buyer or its Affiliates) (collectively, a “Business Transfer”), unless (A) the contract for such sale, transfer, license, conveyance or other disposition shall require the transferee to comply with the covenants in this Section 5.02, and (B) the transferee or successor (and the transferee(s) or successor(s) of such original transferee or successor) assumes and succeeds to all of the obligations of Buyer set forth in this Section 5.02. Buyer shall give Seller written notice of any Business Transfer or distribution arrangement within ten (10) Business Days after consummation thereof.

5.03 Closing; Closing Payments.

5.04 Allocation. For Tax purposes, the Parties agree that the Purchase Price, together with any other amounts that are properly treated as purchase price for U.S. federal income tax purposes, are required to be allocated under applicable Law, shall be allocated among the Acquired Assets in the manner mutually agreed upon by the Parties using the methodology set forth on Exhibit D hereto (the “Purchase Price Allocation”). Buyer and Seller will (and will cause their Affiliates to) (a) prepare and file all Tax Returns in a manner consistent with the Purchase Price Allocation and (b) not take any position inconsistent therewith on any Tax Return or in connection with any Tax proceedings or otherwise, in each case, except to the extent otherwise required by applicable Legal Requirements. If the amount treated as purchase price for U.S. federal income tax purposes is subsequently adjusted pursuant to Section 10 or any other provision of this Agreement, the Purchase Price Allocation shall be further adjusted in the manner consistent with the procedures set forth in the methodology described on Exhibit D.

5.05 Withholding. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Buyer shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the cash otherwise deliverable under this Agreement, and from any other consideration otherwise paid or delivered to any Person in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, such amounts that Buyer is required to deduct and withhold with respect to any such deliveries and payments under the Code or any provision of any other Tax Law. If Buyer determines that Tax withholding is required pursuant to this Section 5.05, Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide notice thereof to Seller promptly following such determination, and such notice shall include the applicable authority under which such withholding is required. To the extent that amounts are so withheld by Buyer, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made. Buyer shall cooperate with any reasonable request from Seller to avoid or minimize any Tax withholding from the Purchase Price payable pursuant to this Agreement to the extent permitted by applicable Tax Law.

For a period of five (5) years following the Closing Date, Seller will not, and will cause its controlled Affiliates to not, directly or indirectly, (i) engage in the Restricted Business anywhere in the world, (ii) control any entity that engages in the Restricted Business, or (iii) knowingly and willfully cause, induce or encourage any material customer, supplier, contract manufacturer or licensor of the Business as of the Effective Time, or any other Person who has a material business relationship with the Business as of the Effective Time, to terminate or modify such material customer, supplier, licensor or other material business relationship with the Business; provided, however, that neither (x) the ownership of not more than five percent (5%) of the outstanding shares of any publicly held company that engages in an activity otherwise prohibited by this Section 9.01(b) nor (y) any Transition Services contemplated by this Agreement shall constitute a breach of this Section 9.01(b). Further, if Seller acquires a business that, while primarily engaged in other activities, also engages in the Restricted Business (a “Prohibited Business”), and Seller (x) promptly winds down the Prohibited Business, or (y) divests the Prohibited Business within sixty (60) days following the closing date of the acquisition of the Prohibited Business, then such actions shall not constitute a breach of this Section 9.01(b).

(c) Reasonableness; Equitable Relief. Seller acknowledges and agrees that the restrictions and covenants contained in this Section 9.01 are reasonably necessary to protect the legitimate business interests of Buyer and constitute a material inducement to Buyer to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. Seller specifically acknowledges and agrees that Xxxxx will be entitled to seek injunctive relief for a breach of any restriction contained in this Section 9.01. If at any time a court or arbitrator’s award holds that the restrictions in this Section 9.01 are unreasonable under circumstances then existing, the Parties agree that the maximum period, scope or geographical area reasonable under such circumstances shall be substituted for the stated period, scope or area. The Parties agree that any breach of the provisions contained in this Section 9.01 will result in serious and irreparable injury and therefore money damages would not be an adequate remedy for any such breach. Therefore, in the event of a breach or threatened breach of any provisions of this Section 9.01 that is continuing, Buyer, its successors and assigns and any third-party beneficiary to this Agreement, in addition to other rights and remedies existing in their favor, shall be entitled to specific performance or injunctive or other relief in order to enforce, or prevent any violations of, the provisions hereof (without posting a bond or other security). In addition, in the event of a breach or violation by Seller or any of its controlled Affiliates of this Section 9.01, the applicable non-compete term shall be tolled until such breach or violation has been duly cured.

9.02 Publicity. No public announcement related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated herein will be issued without the joint approval of Seller and Buyer, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, except in any public disclosure which Seller, in its good faith judgment, believes is required by applicable Law or by any stock exchange on which its securities are listed. If Seller, in its good faith judgment, believes such disclosure is required, Seller shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to consult with Buyer, and to consider in good faith any revisions proposed by Xxxxx, as applicable, prior to making (or prior to any Affiliate making) such disclosure; provided that Buyer shall deemed to have consented to any such disclosure to the extent Seller has provided Buyer with a draft thereof and Seller has not suggested any revisions within five (5) Business Days of Seller’s receipt of such draft. Notwithstanding the foregoing, without the approval of the other Party, Buyer and Seller and their respective Affiliates may, following the Closing Date and subject to the other terms and conditions of this Agreement, (a) make internal announcements to their and their Affiliates’ respective employees and Affiliates, (b) communicate with Governmental Authorities regarding this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, and (c) make the public announcements and engage in public communications regarding this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (in the case of this clause (c), solely to the extent such announcements or communications are consistent with a communications plan agreed upon by Seller and Buyer or their respective prior public communications made in compliance with this Section 9.03).

9.03 Post-Closing Access to Records and Personnel. For a period of five (5) years after the Closing Date, upon receipt of reasonable prior notice, Buyer and Seller each agree to provide, or cause to be provided, to each other, as soon as reasonably practicable after written request therefor and at the requesting Party’s sole expense (but only for the reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Party in providing such access), reasonable access during normal business hours, and in a manner so as not to unreasonably interfere with the conduct of such other Party’s business, to the other Party’s employees and to any books, records, documents, instruments, accounts, correspondence, writings, evidences of title and other papers relating solely to the conduct of the Business on or before the Closing Date, in the possession or under the control of the other Party that the requesting Party reasonably needs: (a) to comply with reporting, disclosure, filing or other requirements imposed on the requesting Party by a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the requesting Party or by applicable stock exchange rules, (b) for use in any Proceeding, or in order to satisfy Tax, audit, accounting, claims, regulatory, or other similar requirements, (c) in connection with the filing of any Tax Return or election or any amended return or claim for refund, determining a Liability for Taxes or a right to a refund of Taxes or any Tax audit or other Proceeding in respect of Taxes or (d) to comply with its obligations under this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents; provided, however, that no Party will be required to provide access to or disclose information where such access or disclosure would be reasonably expected to violate any Law or Contract, or waive any attorney-client or other similar privilege (provided, that in the event such provision of information would reasonably be expected to violate any Law or Contract or waive any attorney-client or other similar privilege, the Party with such information will inform the other as to the general nature of what is being withheld as a result of the foregoing and will take all reasonable measures to permit the disclosure in a manner that avoids any such violation or waiver). Any information owned by a Party that is provided to a requesting Party pursuant to this Section 9.03 will be deemed to remain the property of the providing Party. Unless specifically set forth herein, nothing contained in this Agreement will be construed as granting or conferring rights of license or otherwise in any such information. No Party will have any Liability to the other Party in the event that any information exchanged or provided pursuant to this Section 9.03 is found to be inaccurate or is destroyed or lost after commercially reasonable efforts by such Party to comply with the provisions of this Section 9.03.

9.04 Expenses. Except as otherwise provided herein, Buyer, on the one hand, and Seller, on the other hand, agree to each bear their own expenses, fees, and costs in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided, however, that (a) all transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration, recording and other such similar Taxes, and all other conveyance fees, recording charges and other charges and fees (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (“Transfer Taxes”) shall be paid fifty percent (50%) by Seller and fifty percent (50%) by Buyer, and (b) all costs required to obtain the consents of Persons listed on the Consent Schedule shall be paid by Seller. The Parties agree to reasonably cooperate to (i) sign and deliver any resale and other certificates or forms as may be necessary or appropriate to establish an exemption from (or otherwise reduce) any Transfer Taxes and (ii) prepare and file (or cause to be prepared and filed) all Tax Returns in respect of any such Transfer Taxes.

9.05 Wrong Pockets Clause.

(a) If, after the Closing, Seller receives any amounts with respect to Post-Closing Receivables, Seller will remit such amounts to Buyer within five (5) Business Days after such Seller’s receipt thereof.

(b) If, after the Closing, either Buyer on the one hand, or Seller or any of its Subsidiaries, on the other hand, becomes aware that any of the Acquired Assets has not been transferred to Buyer or that any of the Excluded Assets has been transferred to Buyer, it shall promptly notify the other Party in writing and the Parties shall, as soon as reasonably practicable, ensure that such property is transferred, with any necessary prior third party consent or approval, to (a) Buyer, in the case of any Acquired Asset that was not transferred to Buyer at the Closing; or (b) Seller, in the case of any Excluded Asset that was transferred to Buyer at the Closing.

9.06 Transition Services. The services contemplated by this Section 9.06 are collectively referred to as the “Transition Services.”

(a) Seller shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, reasonably cooperate with Xxxxx’s request for assistance in a timely manner in connection with the transfer of the Acquired Assets and, upon Xxxxx’s request, provide reasonable assistance in a timely manner to enable Buyer to commercialize the Acquired Assets in a manner similar to that practiced by Seller prior to the Closing Date, it being understood that Seller shall not provide Buyer with legal or regulatory advice, all as set forth in more detail pursuant to Section 9.06(b) below. After the Closing Date, Seller shall take any and all actions reasonably necessary or appropriate to transfer the Regulatory Approvals and Regulatory Documentation to Buyer at its sole cost and expense. The parties will agree upon procedures to ensure a smooth transition from Seller to Buyer of all of the activities required to be undertaken by the Regulatory Approvals and Regulatory Documentation.

(b) Promptly after the Closing Date, Buyer and Seller will reasonably cooperate in good faith to discuss the terms and conditions of a transition services agreement to be entered into as soon as reasonably practicable after the Closing Date pursuant to which Seller will provide mutually agreed transition services (including with respect to storage and transport of inventory of the Business Product) to Buyer on customary terms, including prompt reimbursement of Seller’s out-of-pocket costs and reimbursement of a reasonable amount of time spent by Seller’s personnel providing such services in an amount to be determined. Until such transition services agreement is entered into, Seller will use its commercially reasonable efforts to provide for a smooth and orderly transition of the Business to the Buyer, including the services contemplated to be covered by the transition services agreement, provided that Xxxxx will promptly reimburse Seller for its out-of-pocket costs and reimbursement of a reasonable amount of time spent by Seller’s personnel providing such services in an amount to be determined. For any Transition Services provided under this Section 9.06(b), (i) Seller shall be named an “additional insured” under Buyer’s applicable insurance policies and (ii) in no event shall Seller have any liability (x) with respect to such Transition Services for any punitive, incidental, consequential, special or indirect damages, including loss of future revenue or income, loss of business reputation or opportunity relating to the breach or alleged breach of this agreement, or diminution of value or any damages based on any type of multiple, whether based on statute, contract, tort or otherwise, and whether or not arising from the other party’s sole, joint, or concurrent negligence, strict liability, criminal liability or other fault or (y) in an amount exceeding any fees paid by Buyer to Seller for such Transition Services, whether in contract or in tort, regardless of the form in which such claim may be brought. Any Transition Services under this Section 9.06(b) shall be provided for a term not to exceed 90 days from the Closing Date, subject to extension by mutual written agreement of the parties.

(c) Promptly after the Closing Date, Seller will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the third-party consents set forth on the Consent Schedule, at its sole cost and expense.

(d) Neither the Transition Services nor the transactions contemplated by this Agreement create any partnership, joint venture or fiduciary relationship between the parties.

9.07 Further Assurances. Upon request, from time to time, each Party agrees that it shall (or direct its employees to, if applicable) execute and deliver all documents, make all rightful oaths, testify in any proceedings and do all other acts which may be necessary or desirable in the reasonable opinion of the other Party to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.

9.08 Use of Inventories of Business Products. Buyer agrees that it will not ship, transfer or use any inventory of Business Product included in the Acquired Assets unless Buyer first (a) removes any labels referring to Seller or any of its subsidiaries from such Business Products and replaces it with labels referring to Buyer or its subsidiaries and (b) has all Regulatory Approvals and other licenses or approvals from applicable Governmental Authorities required to so ship, transfer or use any such Business Product in compliance with applicable Law.

9.09 Promotional/Marketing Materials. Xxxxx acknowledges and agrees that the promotional and medical marketing materials relating to the Business are sold to Buyer on an as-is basis.

10. Indemnification.

10.01 Indemnification by Seller. From and after the Closing, and regardless of any investigation made at any time by or on behalf of Buyer or any information Buyer may have, Seller, on behalf of itself, its Subsidiaries and its successors and assigns, hereby covenants and agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Buyer and its Affiliates, stockholders, directors, officers, employees and agents (collectively, the “Buyer Indemnified Parties”) harmless from and against, and reimburse the Buyer Indemnified Parties for all costs of, any demand, claim, damage, Liability, loss, cost or expense (including interest, penalties, costs of preparation and investigation and the reasonable fees, disbursements and expenses of attorneys, accountants and other professional advisors and other costs and expenses incident to proceedings or investigations, or the defense or settlement of any claim) (collectively, “Buyer’s Damages”) directly or indirectly arising out of, resulting from or relating to:

(a) any breach of any representation or warranty of Seller made in Section 7 of this Agreement (as modified by the Disclosure Schedule);

(b) any breach or failure of Seller to duly perform or observe any term, provision, covenant or agreement to be performed or observed by Seller or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates pursuant to this Agreement;

(d) the Excluded Liabilities;

(e) any Indebtedness of Seller;

(f) any Seller’s Transaction Expenses; or

(g) any claims that the Business Intellectual Property or the Business Products infringe any other Person’s Intellectual Property.

10.02 Limitations on the Indemnification Obligations of Seller.

(a) Survival Periods for Representations, Warranties and Covenants.

(i) Subject to clause (iv) below, the representations and warranties set forth in Section 7.01 (Organization), Section 7.02 (Authorization of Agreement; No Violation), Section 7.03 (Consents and Approvals), Section 7.05(a) (Title to Acquired Assets), the first sentence of Section 7.07(b), Section 7.12 (Taxes) and Section 7.17 (Brokerage) (collectively, the “Fundamental Representations”) shall survive the Closing until thirty (30) days after the expiration of the statute of limitations applicable to the underlying breach of representation or warranty.

(ii) Except for claims of Fraud, and subject to clause (iv) below, all representations and warranties of Seller set forth in Section 7 of this Agreement, other than Fundamental Representations, shall survive the Closing until the eighteen (18) month anniversary of the Closing Date.

(iii) Except for claims of Fraud, and subject to clause (iv) below, Seller’s obligations under Section 10.01(g) shall survive the Closing until the eighteen (18) month anniversary of the Closing Date. All other covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents shall survive the Closing in accordance with their terms.

(iv) Seller’s obligation to indemnify the Buyer Indemnified Parties with respect to a claim (a) for a breach of any of the representations and warranties of Seller set forth in Section 7 of this Agreement, or (b) pursuant to Section 10.01(g), shall extend (with respect to such claim) beyond the applicable survival period only for claims of Fraud or if the Buyer Indemnified Party asserts such claim in a Notice of Claim duly delivered to Seller prior to the expiration of such survival period.

(b) Basket. No indemnification shall be payable by Seller under Section 10.01(a) or Section 10.01(g) unless and until the Buyer’s Damages exceed, in the aggregate, $100,000 (the “Basket”). At such time as the aggregate amount of Buyer’s Damages exceeds the Basket, Seller shall be liable to the Buyer Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to seek indemnification in full for all breaches of such representations or warranties or pursuant to Section 10.01(g) without regard to the Basket (but subject to the other limitations set forth in this Section 10).

(i) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Basket shall not apply to (a) claims for indemnification brought for breaches of the Fundamental Representations or (b) any claims of Fraud.

(i) Seller’s aggregate liability under Section 10.01(a) and under Section 10.01(g) shall not exceed $4,000,000 (the “Cap”); provided, however, that the Cap shall not apply to (a) claims for indemnification brought for breaches of the Fundamental Representations, or (b) any claims of Fraud.

(ii) In no event shall Seller’s aggregate liability under Section 10.01 exceed the Purchase Price.

(d) Further Limitations. The Buyer Indemnified Parties shall not be entitled to indemnification under this Agreement:

(i) to the extent of any net Tax benefit described in Section 10.02(e) below;

(ii) to the extent of any insurance proceeds actually received by the Buyer Indemnified Party in connection with the facts giving rise to such indemnification, as determined pursuant to Section 10.02(f) below; and

(iii) to the extent that the Buyer’s Damages subject to a claim for indemnification resulted from failure of Buyer to undertake actions required by applicable Law to mitigate such Buyer’s Damages.

(e) Tax Benefit. The amount of any indemnity provided in this Agreement shall be reduced (but not below zero) by the amount of any reduction in cash Taxes paid by any Buyer Indemnified Party with respect to the taxable year in which the relevant Buyer Damages were incurred, which reduction arises directly as a result of the Buyer’s Damages giving rise to such indemnity claim (as determined on a “with-and-without” basis). If the indemnity amount is paid prior to the Buyer Indemnified Parties realizing a reduction in Taxes in connection with the claims giving rise to such payment, and the Buyer Indemnified Parties subsequently realize such reduction in Taxes, then the Buyer Indemnified Parties shall pay to Seller the amount of such reduction in Taxes (but not in excess of the indemnification payment or payments actually received with respect to such claims).

(f) Insurance Proceeds. The amount of any indemnity provided in this Agreement shall be computed net of any insurance proceeds actually received by a Buyer Indemnified Party in connection with or as a result of any claim giving rise to an indemnification claim hereunder. If the indemnity amount is paid prior to the Buyer Indemnified Party’s actual receipt of insurance proceeds related thereto, Buyer shall assign its right to such insurance and allow Seller to pursue collection of such insurance proceeds. In addition, if a Buyer Indemnified Party subsequently receives such insurance proceeds, then the Buyer Indemnified Party shall promptly pay to Seller the amount of insurance proceeds subsequently received (net of all related costs, expenses and other Liabilities), but not more, in the aggregate, than the indemnity amount paid by Seller.

(g) Collection Principles. The Buyer Indemnified Parties will be entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 10.01(a) and Section 10.01(g) (including claims based on a breach of the Fundamental Representations) in the following order: (a) first, the Buyer Indemnified Parties will incur Buyer’s Damages until the Buyer Indemnified Parties shall have borne Buyer’s Damages in excess of the Basket, (b) second, the Buyer Indemnified Parties will be entitled to indemnification by set off against Note A (provided it is then outstanding), Note B (provided it is then outstanding), and Note C (provided it is then outstanding) until the entire outstanding amounts of Note A, Note B and Note C have been set off and (c) thereafter, the Buyer Indemnified Parties will be entitled to indemnification directly from Seller (but subject to the other limitations set forth in this Section 10).

(h) Materiality. Notwithstanding anything contained herein or elsewhere to the contrary, all “material” and “Material Adverse Effect” or similar materiality type qualifications contained in the representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement shall be ignored and not given any effect for purposes of calculating the amount of any Buyer’s Damages.

(i) Certain Damages. Seller shall not have any liability under any provision of this Agreement for, and the amount of Buyer’s Damages shall not include punitive damages (except to the extent such damages are payable in connection with a Third Party Claim).

10.03 Indemnification by Xxxxx. From and after the Closing, and regardless of any investigation made at any time by or on behalf of Seller or any information Seller may have, Buyer, on behalf of itself and its successors, hereby covenants and agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Seller and its Affiliates, shareholders, directors, officers, employees and agents (collectively, the “Seller Indemnified Parties”) harmless from and against, and shall reimburse the Seller Indemnified Parties for all costs they incur with respect to, any demand, claim, damage, Liability, loss, cost or expense (including interest, penalties, costs of preparation and investigation and the reasonable fees, disbursements and expenses of attorneys, accountants and other professional advisors and other costs and expenses incident to proceedings or investigations, or the defense or settlement of any claim) (collectively, “Seller’s Damages”) directly or indirectly arising out of, resulting from or relating to:

(a) any breach of any representation or warranty of Buyer made in Section 8 of this Agreement;

(b) any breach or failure of Buyer to duly perform or observe any term, provision, covenant or agreement to be performed or observed by Buyer pursuant to this Agreement; or

10.04 Indemnification Procedure.

(a) Following the discovery of any facts or conditions that could reasonably be expected to give rise to a claim for either Buyer’s Damages or Seller’s Damages, the Person seeking indemnification under this Agreement (the “Indemnified Party”) shall promptly, but in any event within thirty (30) days thereafter, provide written notice to the Party from whom indemnification is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”), setting forth, to the extent known by the Indemnified Party, the facts and circumstances, in reasonable detail, relating to such Buyer’s Damages or Seller’s Damages, as applicable, the amount of such Buyer’s Damages or Seller’s Damages (or a non-binding, reasonable estimate thereof if the actual amount is not known or not capable of reasonable calculation) and the Section(s) of this Agreement upon which the Indemnified Party is relying in seeking such indemnification (such written notice being hereinafter referred to as a “Notice of Claim”); provided that no delay in providing such Notice of Claim shall affect an Indemnified Party’s rights hereunder, unless (and then only to the extent that) the Indemnifying Party is materially and adversely prejudiced in connection therewith. In the event the Indemnifying Party does not notify the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) days following its receipt of a Notice of Claim that the Indemnifying Party disputes its liability to the Indemnified Party under this Section 10 or the amount thereof, the claim specified by the Indemnified Party in such Notice of Claim shall be conclusively deemed a Liability of the Indemnifying Party under this Section 10 (subject to all of the limitations and other terms of this Section 10), and the Indemnifying Party shall pay the amount of such Liability that it is required to pay under this Section 10 to the Indemnified Party on demand or, in the case of any Notice of Claim in which the amount of the claim (or any portion of the claim) is estimated, on such later date when the amount of such claim (or such portion of such claim) becomes finally determined (subject to all of the limitations and other terms of this Section 10). In the event the Indemnifying Party has timely disputed its Liability with respect to such claim as provided above, such Indemnified Party and the appropriate Indemnifying Party, as promptly as possible, shall establish the merits and amount of such claim (by mutual agreement, litigation, arbitration or otherwise) and, within five (5) Business Days following the final determination of the merits and amount of such claim, the Indemnifying Party shall pay to the Indemnified Party in immediately available funds an amount equal to such claim as determined hereunder (subject to all of the limitations and other terms of this Section 10).

(b) The following provisions shall apply to any claim subject to indemnification under this Agreement that is filed, demanded or instituted by any third party, including any Governmental Authority (a “Third Party Claim”):

(i) The Indemnified Party or Parties shall give the Indemnifying Party or Parties a Notice of Claim promptly after receipt by such Indemnified Party of notice of the assertion of a Third Party Claim against it, but in no event later than thirty (30) days thereafter; provided, however, that the failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party from Liability hereunder with respect to such Third Party Claim only if, and only to the extent that, such failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party results in the forfeiture by the Indemnifying Party of any material rights and defenses otherwise available to the Indemnifying Party with respect to such Third Party Claim or the Indemnifying Party is materially and adversely prejudiced in connection therewith.

(ii) The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to undertake the control the defense of the Third Party Claim to the extent such Third Party Claim involves solely monetary damages by providing written notice to the Indemnified Party within twenty (20) days following receipt of such Notice of Claim by representatives chosen by the Indemnifying Party and reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party will not be entitled to assume the defense of any Proceeding if (a) such Third Party Claim could result in criminal liability of, or equitable remedies against, the Indemnified Party; (b) such Third Party Claim involves a customer, vendor, distributor, sales agent or employee of the Indemnified Party or its Affiliates or in the reasonable judgment of the Indemnified Party could reasonably be expected to result in a negative effect to the reputation or future business prospects of the Indemnified Party, (c) the Indemnified Party has been advised in writing by legal counsel that the interests of the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third Party Claim are in conflict with one another, and as a result, the Indemnifying Party could not adequately represent the interests of the Indemnified Party in such Third Party Claim, or (d) the Buyer’s Damages or Seller’s Damages resulting from such Third Party Claim would reasonably be expected to exceed any applicable limitations on the indemnification obligations set forth in this Section 10. In the event, however, that the Indemnifying Party declines or fails to assume, or is not permitted to assume, the defense of the Third Party Claim on the terms provided above or to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, in either case within such twenty (20) day period, or if the Indemnifying Party is not entitled to assume the defense of the Third Party Claim in accordance with the preceding sentence, then such Indemnified Party may employ counsel to represent or defend it in any such Proceeding, and the reasonable fees and disbursements of such counsel for the Indemnified Party as incurred shall constitute Buyer’s Damages or Seller’s Damages (as the case may be) hereunder. In any audit, investigation, action or proceeding for which indemnification is being sought hereunder, the Indemnified Party or the Indemnifying Party, whichever is not assuming the defense of such action, shall have the right to participate in such matter and to retain its own counsel at such Party’s own expense. The Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party (as the case may be) shall at all times use reasonable efforts to keep the Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party (as the case may be) reasonably apprised of the status of the defense of any matter the defense of which it is maintaining and to cooperate in good faith with each other with respect to the defense of any such matter.

(iii) No Indemnified Party may settle or compromise any Third Party Claim or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to which indemnification is being sought hereunder without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of the Indemnifying Party from all liability arising out of such Third Party Claim. An Indemnifying Party may not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, settle or compromise any Third Party Claim or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to which indemnification is being sought hereunder.

10.05 Tax Treatment. Any payments made to any Party pursuant to this Section 10 shall constitute an adjustment of the Purchase Price for Tax purposes and shall be treated as such by Buyer and Seller on their Tax Returns to the greatest extent permitted by Law.

10.06 Exclusive Remedy. The Parties acknowledge and agree that, after the Closing, the indemnification provisions in this Section 10 shall be the exclusive remedy of the Parties with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, except for (a) claims of Fraud or (b) equitable relief permitted by Section 9.01 and Section 11.11.

11. Miscellaneous.

11.01 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by the Laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to any rule or provision thereof which would cause the application of the Law of any other state.

Neither Party may assign, transfer or otherwise encumber this Agreement or its rights or obligations hereunder, in whole or in part, whether voluntarily or by operation of Law, without the prior written consent of the other Party, and any attempted assignment without such consent shall be void and without legal effect; provided that Buyer may assign or transfer its rights and obligations under this Agreement, in whole or from time to time in part, to any Affiliate of Buyer, provided that such transfer or assignment shall not relieve Buyer of its obligations hereunder or enlarge, alter or change any obligation of any Party hereto. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

11.09 Benefit. Subject to the following sentence, but notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer on any Person other than the Parties hereto or their respective heirs, successors, executors, administrators and assigns any rights, remedies, obligations or Liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement. Each of the Buyer Indemnified Parties and the Seller Indemnified Parties is a third party beneficiary of, and entitled to enforce the provisions of, this Agreement.

11.10 Disclosure Schedule. Seller has prepared the schedules attached to this Agreement (individually, a “Schedule” and, collectively, the “Disclosure Schedule”) and delivered them to Buyer on the date hereof. The Schedules shall be arranged by number to correspond to the sections of this Agreement, and Seller shall be permitted to include in the Disclosure Schedule any qualifications, disclosure or exceptions with respect to any subsection of Section 7. Any fact or item disclosed on any Schedule shall be deemed disclosed on all other Schedules to which an appropriate cross reference is made or on all other Schedules where it is reasonably apparent on its face that such disclosure applies to such other Schedules of the Disclosure Schedule. The Disclosure Schedule shall qualify the representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement or set forth other information required by this Agreement but shall not otherwise vary, change or alter the language of the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or be interpreted as additional or independent representations or warranties. The inclusion of any item on any Schedule shall not constitute an admission that a violation, right of termination, default, liability or other obligation of any kind exists with respect to such item, but rather is intended only to qualify certain representations and warranties in this Agreement and/or to set forth other information required by this Agreement.

11.11 Specific Performance. The Parties agree that irreparable damage may occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement are not performed in accordance with their specific terms or are otherwise breached and that any breach of this Agreement by a Party could not be adequately compensated in all cases by monetary damages alone. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled in Law or in equity. Each of the Parties agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief on the basis that the other Party has an adequate remedy at Law or that any award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at Law or in equity. Any Party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with such order or injunction.

11.12 Negotiation of Agreement. The Parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event of an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the Parties and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement.

11.13 Facsimile Signature; Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed and delivered by electronic means (including by e-signature or by e-mail in .PDF or .TIF form) of original signatures and may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be considered one and the same agreement, and shall become effective when such counterparts have been signed by each Party and delivered to the other Party.
