(c) In respect to Section 7.1(b) above, no limitation shall apply to breach of any representation or warranty which constitutes fraud or willful misrepresentation by the Company (“Fraud”). The applicable survival period shall be referred to, as applicable, as the “Claims Period”.
(d) Except for Fraud, the Company shall have any liability with respect to any breach of representation and warranty, unless a claim is made hereunder prior to the expiration of the Claims Period for such representation and warranty, in which case such representation and warranty shall survive as to that claim until the claim has been finally resolved.
(e) It is the intention of the parties hereto that the Claims Periods supersede any statute of limitations applicable to the representations and warranties, and this Section 7.1 constitutes a separate written legally binding agreement among the parties hereto in accordance with the provisions of Section 19 of the Israeli Limitation Law, 1958.
7.2 Indemnification.
(a) Indemnifiable Losses. The Indemnitor shall indemnify the Investor (including its shareholders, limited and general partners directors and officers) (each, an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from all claims, actions, suits, settlements, damages, expenses (including, reasonable legal costs and expenses), losses, or costs sustained or incurred by such Indemnitees (collectively, “Losses”) resulting from, or arising out of, a breach or misrepresentations of any the Indemnitor’s representations, warranties or covenants made in this Agreement, subject to the limitations in this Section 7.
(b) Limitations. The Indemnitee’s right for indemnification hereunder is subject to the following conditions and limitations, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, but in to any other limitation or condition contained herein; provided, however, no limitation shall apply to Fraud:
(i) No Indemnitor shall be liable for any Loss, unless and until the aggregate of Losses equal or exceeds US$50,000, in which case indemnification shall be made from the first dollar amount.
(ii) The Indemnitor’s liability shall be limited to the Purchase Price and each Indemnitee shall be entitled to receive a pro rata share of the indemnifiable Loss, based the Purchase Price.
(c) Claims Notice; Third Party Claims. In the event that an Indemnitee wishes to assert a claim for indemnification hereunder it shall give the Indemnitor a prompt written notice thereof (a “Claims Notice”), which shall describe in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances upon which the asserted claim for indemnification is based and thereafter keep the Indemnitor informed, in all material respects, with respect thereto. In the event that such Claims Notice results from a third party claim against the Indemnitee, such Indemnitee shall promptly upon becoming aware of the commencement of proceedings by such third party provide the Indemnitor with the Claims Notice and the Indemnitor shall have the right to assume the defense thereof (at Indemnitor’s expense) with counsel mutually satisfactory to the parties; provided, however, that the Indemnitees shall have the right to retain their own counsel, at the reasonable expense of the Indemnitor, and within the indemnification limitations herein, if representation of all parties by the counsel retained by the Indemnitor would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between the parties in such proceeding. Failure of the Indemnitees to give prompt notice or to keep it informed, as provided herein, shall not relieve the Indemnitor of any of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent that the Indemnitor is actually and materially prejudiced by such failure. The Indemnitor shall not be liable nor shall it be required to indemnify or hold harmless the Indemnitee in connection with any settlement effected without its consent in writing, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
(d) Sole Remedy. The indemnification provided by the Indemnitor hereunder and the enforcement of such indemnification shall be the exclusive remedy available to the Indemnitees under this Agreement, other than for Fraud; provided that this provision does not limit the right to seek specific performance, a restraining order or injunctive relief with respect to any provision of this Agreement.

8.7 Delays or Omissions. Except as expressly provided herein, no delay or omission to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing to any party to this Agreement upon any breach or default of any other party under this Agreement, shall impair any such right, power or remedy of such non-defaulting party nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of any such breach or default, or an acquiescence therein, or of any similar breach or default thereafter occurring; nor shall any waiver of any single breach or default be deemed a waiver of any other breach or default therefore or thereafter occurring.

8.8 Interpretation. The titles and subtitles used in this Agreement are used for convenience only and are not to be considered in construing or interpreting this Agreement. The words “include”, “includes” and “including” shall be deemed to be followed by the phrase “without limitation”. Unless the context requires otherwise, the words “herein”, “hereof” and “hereunder”, and words of similar import, shall be construed to refer to this Agreement in its entirety, and not to any particular provision hereof, and all references herein to Sections shall be construed to refer to Sections to this Agreement. Reference to “governmental authorities” (or similar terms) shall include any: (a) nation, principality, state, commonwealth, territory, county, municipality, district or other jurisdiction of any nature, (b) federal, state, local, municipal, foreign or other government, (c) governmental, quasi-governmental or regulatory body of any nature, including any governmental division, subdivision, department, agency, bureau, branch, office, commission, council, board, instrumentality, organization, unit, or body, or (d) court, public or private arbitrator or other public tribunal. Reference to a “person” shall mean any individual, corporation, partnership, limited liability company, firm, joint venture, association, joint-stock company, trust, estate, unincorporated organization, governmental authority or other entity, including, any party to this Agreement. Any reference to a “day” or a number of days (without explicit reference to “business days”) shall be interpreted as a reference to a calendar day or number of calendar days, and if any action is to be taken or given on or by a particular calendar day, and such calendar day is not a business day, then such action may be deferred until the first business day thereafter (where “business day” shall mean any day on which banking institutions in Tel-Aviv-Jaffa, Israel are generally open to the public for conducting business and are not required by law to close).
8.9 Severability. If one or more provisions of this Agreement are held to be unenforceable under applicable law, such provision shall be excluded from this Agreement and the balance of the Agreement shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms and interpreted so as to give effect, to the fullest extent consistent with and permitted by applicable law, to the meaning and intention of the excluded provision.
