6.3 Restrictive Covenants.
(a) For a period of five (5) years after the Closing Date (the “Restricted Period”), no Seller shall, directly or indirectly, engage, or be interested in any business or entity that engages, within the United States of America and any other state where Sellers conduct the Digester Business (the “Territory”), in any business substantially similar to the Digester Business, it being understood that these covenants not to compete shall not at any time prevent any Seller or any of its Affiliates from maintaining passive investments of no more than 3% of the aggregate equity interests of any publicly-traded entity, that is in direct competition with the Digester Business.
(b) During the Restricted Period, without the prior written consent of Buyer, no Sellers, directly or indirectly shall (x) solicit, or induce any person who is a customer, supplier, lender or lessor of the Digester Business or any other person which has a business relationship with the Digester Business at any time during the Restricted Period to discontinue or reduce the extent of such relationship with Buyer or its Affiliates, (y) induce or attempt to influence any present or future employee, distributor or sales agent of the Digester Business to terminate his, her or its employment or agency relationship with Buyer or its Affiliates or (z) hire or otherwise employ any who was employed by the Buyer or any of its Affiliates at any time during the six (6) month period preceding the date of the solicitation or hiring.
(c) The Sellers hereby expressly represent and warrant that it has or may have knowledge of certain Proprietary Information. The Sellers acknowledge and agree that all such Proprietary Information is confidential and proprietary and that a substantial portion of the Purchase Price is being paid for such Proprietary Information and that it represents a substantial investment having great economic value to Buyer, and constitutes a substantial part of the value to Buyer of the Digester Business and the Purchased Assets. The Sellers acknowledge and agree that Xxxxx would be irreparably damaged if any of the Proprietary Information was disclosed to, or used or exploited on behalf of, any Person other than Buyer or any of its Affiliates. Accordingly, the Sellers covenant and agree that it shall not, and it shall use its best efforts to ensure that any other Person acting on its behalf does not, without the prior written consent of Buyer, disclose, use or exploit any such Proprietary Information, for the benefit of any Seller or of any third-party, except that the Sellers may disclose, use or exploit a particular item of Proprietary Information if and to the extent (but only if and to the extent) that such item: (i) is or becomes publicly known or generally known in the industry of the Digester Business through no act of a Seller in violation of this Agreement, or is obtained from a third party that may lawfully disclose such information without breaching any obligation of confidentiality applicable to such third party; (ii) is required to be disclosed to or by Order of a Governmental Authority or a court of law or otherwise as required by law; provided that prior to any such disclosure notice of such requirement of disclosure is provided to Xxxxx and Xxxxx is afforded the reasonable opportunity to object to such disclosure; or (iii) has been publicly disclosed by Xxxxx after the Closing.
(d) If any portion of the restrictions set forth in this Section 5.2 should, for any reason whatsoever, be declared invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, the validity or enforceability of the remainder of such restrictions shall not thereby be adversely affected. Further, Sellers declare that the territorial and time limitations set forth in this Section 5.2 are reasonable and properly required for the adequate protection of the Digester Business as conducted by Buyer following the Closing. In the event any such territorial or time limitation is deemed to be unreasonable by a court of competent jurisdiction, Sellers agree to the reduction of the territorial or time limitation to the area or period which such court shall have deemed reasonable.
6.4 Registration Statement. Buyer shall use its best efforts to file a registration statement for the resale of Closing Common Stock and shares of Closing Common Stock underlying the conversion of the Buyer Preferred Stock, as soon as practicable following the Closing and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such registration statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as practicable after the filing thereof and to remain effective.

6.5 Access to Information. Following the Closing, each Party will afford the other Parties, their counsel and their accountants, during normal business hours, reasonable access to the books, records and other data directly relating to the Purchased Assets in its possession with respect to periods prior to the Closing and the right to make copies and extracts therefrom, to the extent that such access may be reasonably required by the requesting party in connection with (i) the preparation of tax returns, (ii) the determination or enforcement of rights and obligations under this Agreement, (iii) compliance with the requirements of any governmental or regulatory authority, (iv) the determination or enforcement of the rights and obligations of any Indemnified Party or (v) in connection with any actual or threatened legal action or proceeding. Further. each Party agrees for a period extending six (6) years after the Closing Date not to destroy or otherwise dispose of any such books, records and other data unless such Party shall first offer in writing to surrender such books, records and other data to the other Party and such other Party shall not agree in writing to take possession thereof during the ten (10) business day period after such offer is made.

ARTICLE VII
INDEMNIFICATION
7.1 Survival. All representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or in any Transaction Document shall survive the Closing and shall be fully effective and enforceable for a period of twelve (12) months following the Closing Date (the “Survival Date”), and shall thereafter be of no further force or effect, except as they relate to claims for indemnification timely made pursuant to this Article VII; provided, however, that the Fundamental Representations shall survive until the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Closing Date. Any claim for indemnification asserted in writing before applicable survival period set forth in this Section 7.1 shall survive until resolved or judicially determined. No investigation by Xxxxx prior to the Closing Date shall relieve the Sellers from any liability for any misrepresentation, misleading statement or omission made in this Agreement or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby. Covenants and agreements required to be performed after the Closing shall survive the Closing and shall expire in accordance with their terms.
- 14 -
7.2 Indemnification.
(a) Indemnification by the Sellers. Subject to the limitations and the provisions set forth in this Agreement, the Sellers shall jointly and severally indemnify, reimburse and hold harmless Buyer and its officers, directors, shareholders, and Affiliates (collectively, the “Buyer Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all losses, damages (but excluding any consequential, special or punitive damages unless awarded to a third party in connection with a third Party Claim), expenses (including court costs, amounts paid in settlement, interest, penalties, judgments, reasonable attorneys’ fees or other expenses for investigating and defending), suit, action, claim, liability or obligation (collectively, “Damages”) related to, caused by or arising from:
(i) any breach of any representation or warranty contained herein or in any other Transaction Documents by the Sellers, or any allegations by third parties that, if true, would entitle any Buyer Indemnified Parties to indemnity under this Section 7.2(a)(i);
(ii) any breach or nonfulfillment of any covenant or agreement contained in or made pursuant to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document by the Sellers, or any allegations by third parties that, if true, would entitle Buyer and its Affiliates to indemnity under this Section 7.2(a)(ii);
(iii) the Excluded Liabilities and any liabilities arising from the Excluded Assets;
(iv) any liabilities of the Sellers or any of their Affiliates arising after the Closing Date;
(v) any third party or Governmental Authority claims arising in breach of contract, breach of warranty, product liability, unfair competition, personal or other injury, tort or infringement of property rights of others, Taxes, employee matters or other third party or Governmental Authority claims, in each case which claim is with respect to any and all activities of the Sellers or any Affiliate thereof in connection with the conduct of the Digester Business on or before the Closing Date (or before or after the Closing Date with respect to any and all activities of the Sellers or any Affiliate thereof in connection with the conduct of any business other than the Digester Business); and
(vi) any and all Actions, including reasonable legal fees and expenses, in enforcing this indemnity against the Sellers.
(h) Indemnification by Xxxxx. Subject to the limitations and provisions set forth in this Agreement, Xxxxx shall indemnify, reimburse and hold harmless the Sellers and each of its officers, directors, managers, shareholders, members and Affiliates (collectively, the “Seller Indemnified Parties”) against any Damages related to, caused by or arising from:
(i) any breach of any representation or warranty contained herein or in any other Transaction Document by Xxxxx, or any allegations by third parties that, if true, would entitle the Company to indemnity under this Section 7.2(b)(i);
(ii) any breach or nonfulfillment of any covenant or agreement contained in or made pursuant to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document by Buyer, or any allegations by third parties that, if true, would entitle the Seller Indemnified Parties to indemnity under this Section 7.2(b)(ii); and
(vii) any and all actions, suits, proceedings, claims, demands, assessments, judgments, costs and expenses, including reasonable legal fees and expenses, in enforcing this indemnity against Buyer.
- 15 -
(i) Damage Calculation. For purposes of calculating the amount of Damages subject to indemnification, it is understood and agreed between the parties hereto that to determine if there has been an inaccuracy or breach of a representation or warranty which is qualified as to materiality by the party making such representation or warranty or contains an exception for matters that would not have a material adverse effect, then such representation or warranty shall be read as if it were not so qualified or contained no such exception.
(j) Notice of Claims. Any Party seeking indemnification shall give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of the facts and circumstances giving rise to the claim (the “Notice”) for which such indemnified party intends to assert a right to indemnification under this Agreement (“Claims”). Failure to give Notice shall not relieve any indemnifying party of any obligations which the indemnifying party may have to the indemnified party under this Article VII, except to the extent that such failure has actually and materially prejudiced the indemnifying party under the provisions for indemnification contained in this Agreement. The indemnifying party shall reimburse an indemnified party promptly after delivery of a Notice certifying that the indemnified party has incurred Damages after compliance with the terms of this Article VII; provided, however, the party receiving the Notice shall have the option to contest any such Damages or its obligations to indemnify therefor in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, at such party’s own cost and expense. Such option shall be exercised by the giving of notice by the exercising party to the other party within 20 days of receipt of a Notice. If the parties do not agree upon the amount of Damages, the party seeking indemnification may seek appropriate legal remedy in accordance with this Agreement.
(k) Limitations on Indemnification Obligation. The maximum liability of the Sellers to Buyer, and of Buyer to the Sellers, for all Claims and Damages shall be an amount equal to $275,000 (the “Cap”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Cap shall not apply: (i) in the event of fraud or willful misrepresentation by the indemnifying party; or (ii) to indemnification obligations for Damages in connection with (x) a breach of Fundamental Representations; (y) the indemnification obligations set forth in clauses (ii)–(vi) of Section 7.2(a); and (z) the indemnification obligations set forth in items (ii)–(iii) of Section 7.2(b).
(l) Assumption and Defense of Third-Party Action. If any Claim by Buyer hereunder arises out of a claim by a third party or Governmental Authority (a “Third-Party Claim”), the Sellers shall have the right, at their own expense, to participate in or assume control of the defense of the Third-Party Claim, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to Buyer, and to settle or compromise any such Third-Party Claim; provided, however, that such settlement or compromise shall be effected only with the consent of Buyer, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Buyer shall have the right to employ counsel to represent it if, in Buyer’s reasonable judgment, it is advisable for it to be represented by separate counsel, and in that event the fees and expenses of such separate counsel shall be paid by Xxxxx; provided, that if representation by the Company’s counsel would present a conflict of interest, then the Sellers shall reimburse Buyer for the fees and expenses of such separate counsel if a court of competent jurisdiction determines that a conflict of interest existed. Buyer shall have the right to control the defense of any Third-Party Claim, notwithstanding the Sellers’ election to control the defense, if it notifies the Sellers that it is assuming the defense of such Claim, whereupon the Sellers shall be relieved of their obligations under this Article VII with respect to such Third-Party Claim. If the Sellers do not elect to assume control of the defense of any Third-Party Claim, the Sellers shall be bound by the results obtained by Buyer with respect to such Third-Party Claim. The Sellers agree to render such assistance as may reasonably be requested in order to insure the proper and adequate defense of any Third-Party Claim. It is expressly agreed and understood that any defense by the Sellers of any Third-Party Claims affecting or involving the Digester Business shall not be conducted in a manner which adversely affects or impairs the value or usefulness of the Digester Business or the Purchased Assets.
- 16 -
(m) Source of Recovery. If the Buyer Indemnified Parties are entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article VII, at the Buyer’s sole discretion, Sellers shall pay the amount of applicable Damages (i) reducing the number of Escrow Stock by an amount of Buyer Common Stock having a value up to the amount of applicable Damages (and such Escrow Stock shall be forfeited by Sellers), to the extent available and/or (ii) in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds in accordance with wire instructions provided in writing by Buyer.
(n) Remedies not Exclusive. The remedies provided herein shall be cumulative and shall not preclude the assertion by any party hereto of any other rights or the seeking of any other remedies, whether at law or in equity, against any other party hereto.
