ARTICLE 4
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF SELLER REGARDING PURCHASE OF SECURITIES

4.1

Purchase Entirely for Own Account. Seller confirms, that the shares of Parent Common Stock to be acquired by Seller will be acquired for investment for Seller’s own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof, and that Seller has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same (except for any distributions to Seller’s members or consultants upon a liquidation or dissolution of Seller). By executing this Agreement, Seller further represents that Seller does not presently have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or grant participations to such person or to any third person, with respect to any of such shares of Parent Common Stock. Seller has not been formed for the specific purpose of acquiring such shares of Parent Common Stock.

4.2

Disclosure of Information. Seller has had an opportunity to discuss Parent’s business, management, financial affairs and the terms and conditions of the offering of the shares of Parent Common Stock to be acquired by Seller with Parent’s management and has had an opportunity to review Parent’s facilities. Seller understands that such discussions, as well as any written information delivered by Parent to Seller, were intended to describe the aspects of Parent’s business which Parent believes to be material.

4.3

Restricted Securities. Seller understands that the shares of Parent Common Stock to be acquired by Seller have not been, but will be, registered under the Securities Act. Seller understands that the shares of Parent Common Stock are being issued to Seller pursuant to Section 4(2) under the Securities Act or Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act. Seller understands that such shares of Parent Common Stock are “restricted securities” under applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws and agrees to resell the shares of Parent Common Stock only pursuant to registration under the Securities Act, or pursuant to an available exemption from registration. Seller agrees not to engage in hedging transactions with regard to the shares of Parent Common Stock unless in compliance with the Securities Act.

4.4

Rule 144. Seller is familiar with the provisions of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, which, in substance, permits limited public resale of “restricted securities” acquired, directly or indirectly, from the issuer of the securities (or from an affiliate of such issuer), in a non-public offering subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. Seller understands that Buyer provides no assurances as to whether it will be able to resell any or all of the shares of Parent Common Stock pursuant to Rule 144, which rule requires, among other things, that Buyer be subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, that resales of securities take place only after the holder of the shares has held the shares for certain specified time periods, and under certain circumstances, that resales of securities be limited in volume and take place only pursuant to brokered transactions. Notwithstanding this Section, Seller acknowledges and agrees to the restrictions set forth in Section 4.5 below.

4.5

Resale Securities Restrictions. Seller further understands that in the event all of the applicable requirements of Rule 144 are not satisfied, registration under the Securities Act, compliance with Regulation A promulgated under the Securities Act, or some other registration exemption will be required; and that, notwithstanding the fact that Rule 144 is not exclusive, the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission has expressed its opinion that Persons proposing to sell private placement securities other than in a registered offering and otherwise than pursuant to Rule 144 will have a substantial burden of proof in establishing that an exemption from registration is available for such offers or sales, and that such persons and their respective brokers who participate in such transactions do so at their own risk.

4.6

No General Solicitation. Seller acknowledges that neither Buyer, nor any of its officers, employees, agents, directors, members or partners (a) has engaged the services of a broker, investment banker or finder to contact any potential investor nor has Seller or any of Seller’s officers, employees, agents, directors, members or partners, agreed to pay any commission, fee or other remuneration to any third party to solicit or contact any potential investor; (b) engaged in any general solicitation; or (c) published any advertisement in connection with the offer and sale of the shares of Parent Common Stock being issued hereunder.

4.7

Reliance on Exemptions Seller understands that the Parent Common Stock being offered and issued to it in reliance on specific exemptions from the registration requirements of United States federal and state securities laws and that Buyer and Parent are relying in part upon the truth and accuracy of, and Seller’s compliance with, the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgements and understandings of Seller set forth in this Article 4 in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of Seller to acquire the Parent Common Stock.

ARTICLE 6
ADDITIONAL COVENANTS

All non-public information disclosed by any party to any other party, whether before or after the date hereof, in connection with the Transactions, or the discussions and negotiations preceding this Agreement shall be kept confidential by the receiving party and shall not be used by any receiving party other than as contemplated by this Agreement, except to the extent that such information shall have become public knowledge other than through a breach of this Agreement by receiving party seeking to disclose the information, may otherwise be required by Law, or to the extent such duty as to confidentiality is waived in writing by the disclosing party.

6.3

Tax Cooperation.

Any information obtained pursuant to this Section 6.3, or pursuant to any other Section hereof providing for the sharing of confidential information, shall be subject to Section 6.1.

6.4

All Reasonable Efforts. Subject to the terms and conditions herein provided, each of Seller and Buyer shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all action, and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper and advisable under applicable Laws and regulations to consummate and make effective as promptly as practicable the sale of the Acquired Assets to Buyer.

6.6

Subsequent Distribution of Stock. Prior to the registration of the Parent Common Stock pursuant to Section 6.9 or trading of the Parent Common Stock pursuant to Rule 144, in the event of a distribution of the shares of Parent Common Stock by Seller upon a dissolution of Seller to its members or consultants after the Closing Date or in satisfaction of existing obligations of Seller to creditors, Seller (and any subsequent holders) shall obtain an investment representation statement respectively signed by the Person(s) to whom such stock is distributed that states that such Person(s): (a) are acquiring the shares of Parent Common Stock for their own account and not directly or indirectly for the account of any other Person; (b) are acquiring the shares of Parent Common Stock for investment and not with a view to distribution or resale thereof except in compliance with the Securities Act and any applicable state Law regulating securities; and (c) realize that they bear the economic risk of the investment for an indefinite period of time because such shares of Parent Common Stock have not been registered under the Securities Act and therefore cannot and will not be sold unless they are subsequently registered or qualified under such Securities Act, or otherwise can be traded pursuant to Rule 144. Additionally, no fractional shares of Parent Common Stock shall be issued upon any distribution, and no certificates for any fractional shares shall be issued. The obligations under this Section 6.6 shall not expire.

Registration of Shares of Parent Common Stock Issued.

(a)

Parent shall cause the Parent Common Stock (including any common stock issuable upon exercise of Warrants or ISO Agreement) to be registered under the Securities Act so as to permit the resale thereof, and in connection therewith shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to prepare and file a registration statement under the Securities Act (the “Registration Statement”) with the SEC by April 30, 2015, and use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registration Statement to become effective as soon as possible after the filing thereof. Each Holder shall, at Parent’s sole cost and expense, provide all such information and materials to Parent and take all such action as may be required in order to permit Parent to comply with all applicable requirements of the SEC and to obtain any desired acceleration of the effective date of such Registration Statement. Such provision of information and materials is a condition precedent to the obligations of Parent with respect to such Holder pursuant to this Section 6.9. The offering made pursuant to such registration shall not be underwritten.

(b)

Parent shall (i) prepare and file with the SEC the Registration Statement in accordance with Section 6.9(a) hereof with respect to the shares of Parent Common Stock (including any common stock issuable upon exercise of Warrants or ISO Agreement) and shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registration Statement to remain effective for a period ending on the first to occur of (A) the date all of the shares registered thereunder and not previously sold by the Holders may be sold under Rule 144 in one three-month period (assuming compliance by the Holders and Parent with the provisions thereof) or (B) two (2)

years after the Effective Date; provided, however, for this subsection (B), if Parent exercises its Suspension Right (as defined below), the period for the effective time of the Registration Statement shall be extended beyond the two (2) years by the cumulative period of time in which Parent has suspended open market offers and sales of Parent Common Stock; (ii) prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to the Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the sale or other disposition of all securities proposed to be registered in the Registration Statement until the termination of effectiveness of the Registration Statement; and (iii) furnish to such Holder such number of copies of any prospectus (including any amended or supplemented prospectus) in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act, and such other documents, as such Holder may reasonably request in order to effect the offering and sale of the Parent Common Stock (including any common stock issuable upon exercise of Warrants or ISO Agreement) to be offered and sold, but only while Parent shall be required under the provisions hereof to cause the Registration Statement to remain current.

(c)

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 6.9, Parent shall have the right at any time to require that the Holder suspends further open market offers and sales of Parent Common Stock for a period not to exceed ninety (90) days, if, in the reasonable judgment of Parent after consultation with counsel, there is in existence material undisclosed information or events with respect to Parent the disclosure of which would be seriously detrimental to Parent (the “Suspension Right”); provided, however, that Parent shall not exercise this Suspension Right more than once in any twelve (12) month period. In the event Parent exercises the Suspension Right, such suspension will continue for the period of time reasonably necessary for disclosure to occur at a time that is not materially detrimental to Parent or until such time as the information or event is no longer material, each as determined in good faith by Parent after consultation with counsel, but in no event shall any single suspension continue for more than 90 consecutive days. Parent will promptly give notice, in a writing signed by an executive officer of Parent of any such suspension (the “Suspension Notice”). Parent agrees to notify the Holders promptly upon termination of the suspension (the “Resumption Notice”).

(d)

Parent shall pay all of the out-of-pocket expenses, if any, incurred in connection with any registration of Parent Common Stock (including any common stock issuable upon exercise of Warrants or ISO Agreement) pursuant to this Section 6.9, including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees, printing expenses, transfer agents’ and registrars’ fees, the fees and disbursements of Parent’s outside counsel and independent accountants and the reasonable fees and disbursements of one counsel for the selling Holders selected by them with the approval of Parent, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.

(e)

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Parent will indemnify, defend, protect and hold harmless each selling Holder, each underwriter of Parent Common Stock being sold by such Holders pursuant to this Section 6.9, each Person, if any, who controls any such Holder or underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act and their respective affiliates, officers, directors, partners, successors and assigns (each a “Holder Indemnitee”) against all actions, claims, losses, damages, liabilities and expenses to which they or any of them become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or under any other statute or at common law or otherwise and, except as hereinafter provided, will promptly reimburse each such Holder Indemnitee for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them or any of them in connection with investigating or defending any actions, whether or not resulting in any liability, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, expenses, liabilities or actions arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of material fact in any Registration Statement and any prospectus filed pursuant to Section 6.9 or any post-effective amendment thereto or arise out of or are based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or any violation by Parent of any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, or under any other statute or at common law or otherwise and relating to action or inaction required of Parent in connection with such registration; provided, however, that Parent shall not be liable to any such Holder Indemnitee in respect of any claims, losses, damages, liabilities and expenses resulting from any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement, or omission or alleged omission, made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to Parent by such Holder Indemnitee specifically for use in connection with such registration statement and prospectus or post-effective amendment.

(f)

To the fullest extent permitted by law, each selling Holder of Parent Common Stock registered in accordance with Section 6.9 will indemnify Parent, each Person, if any, who controls Parent within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, each underwriter of Parent Common Stock and their respective affiliates, officers, directors, partners, successors and assigns (each a “Parent Indemnitee”) against any actions, claims, losses, damages, liabilities and expenses to which they or any of them become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or under any other statute or at common law or otherwise, and, except as hereinafter provided, will promptly reimburse each Parent Indemnitee for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them or any of them in connection with investigating or defending any actions, whether or not resulting in any liability, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, expenses, liabilities or actions arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact in any Registration Statement and any prospectus filed pursuant to Section 6.9 or any post-effective amendment thereto or arise out of or are based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, which untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to Parent by such Holder specifically for use in connection with such registration statement, prospectus or post-effective amendment; provided, however, that the obligations of each such selling Holder hereunder shall be limited to an amount equal to the proceeds to such Holder from the sale of such Holder’s Parent Common Stock as contemplated herein.

(g)

Each Person entitled to indemnification under this Section 6.9 (a “Registration Indemnified Person”) shall give notice to the party required to provide indemnification (the “Registration Indemnifying Person”) promptly after such Registration Indemnified Person has actual knowledge of any claim as to which indemnity may be sought and shall permit the Registration Indemnifying Person to assume the defense of any such claim and any litigation resulting therefrom, provided that counsel for the Registration Indemnifying Person who conducts the defense of such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom shall be approved by the Registration Indemnified Person (whose approval shall not unreasonably be withheld), and the Registration Indemnified Person may participate in such defense at such party’s expense (unless the Registration Indemnified Person has reasonably concluded that there may be a conflict of interest between the Registration Indemnifying Person and the Registration Indemnified Person in such action, in which case the fees and expenses of one counsel for such Registration Indemnified Person(s) shall be at the expense of the Registration Indemnifying Person), and provided further that the failure of any Registration Indemnified Person to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Registration Indemnifying Person of its obligations under this Section 6.9 except to the extent the Registration Indemnifying Person is materially prejudiced thereby. No Registration Indemnifying Person, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall (except with the consent of each Registration Indemnified Person) consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Registration Indemnified Person of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation. Each Registration Indemnified Person shall furnish such information regarding itself or the claim in question as a Registration Indemnifying Person may reasonably request in writing and as shall be reasonably required in connection with the defense of such claim and litigation resulting therefrom.

(h)

In order to provide for just and equitable contribution to joint liability under the Securities Act in any case in which Parent or any Holder makes a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Section 6.9 but it is judicially determined (by the entry of a final judgment or decree by a court of competent jurisdiction and the expiration of time to appeal or the denial of the last right of appeal) that such indemnification may not be enforced in such case notwithstanding that this Section 6.9 provides for indemnification, in such case, then Parent and such Holder will contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which they may be subject (after contribution from others) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of Parent on the one hand and of the Holder on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations or, if the allocation provided herein is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as shall be permitted by applicable law and reflect as nearly as possible the allocation provided herein. The relative fault of Parent on the one hand and of the Holder on the other shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by Parent on the one hand or by the Holder on the other, and each party’s relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission; provided, however, that in any such case (i) no Holder will be required to contribute any amount in excess of the proceeds received by such Holder from the sale of Parent Common Stock pursuant to the Registration Statement; and (ii) no Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act will be entitled to contribution from any Person or entity who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

(i)

In no event shall Parent provide registration rights to any other Person superior to or on parity with the rights provided in this Section 6.9.

6.10

Restrictions on Transfer. Unless the Parent Common Stock becomes registered, or is traded pursuant to Rule 144, Seller agrees not to sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant any option for the purchase of, or otherwise transfer or assign its shares of Parent Common Stock (a) except pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act and applicable state securities Laws or a valid exemption thereunder, and in the case of such an exemption, shall agree to deliver an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to Parent that such registration is not required, and (b) without the prior written consent of Parent (except for any transfers to Seller’s Affiliates). Any holder of shares of Parent Common Stock, including any distributee, desiring to transfer such stock or any interest in such stock shall give a written notice to Parent describing the proposed transfer, including the number of shares of stock proposed to be transferred, the price and terms at which such stock is proposed to be transferred and the name and address of the proposed transferee. The written consent of Parent shall not be unreasonably withheld, provided that the shares of Parent Common Stock may not be transferred to a Person reasonably deemed to be a competitor of Buyer or Parent, and any distributee of such shares shall be required to assent to the terms of Sections 6.6 through 6.10. The obligations under this Section 6.10 shall not expire. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Seller may pledge as collateral its shares of Parent Common Stock ((including any common stock issuable upon exercise of Warrants or ISO Agreement) to any lender.

6.11

Legend. Seller understands and acknowledges that the shares of Parent Common Stock are not registered under the Act, and that under the Securities Act and other applicable Laws Seller may be required to hold such common stock or options for an indefinite period of time. Each stock certificate representing shares of Parent Common Stock shall bear the following legends:

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO THE RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER CONTAINED IN AN ASSET PURCHASE AGREEMENT DATED MARCH 11, 2015, A COPY OF WHICH IS ON FILE AT THE REGISTERED OFFICE OF THE ISSUER. THESE RESTRICTIONS ARE BINDING ON TRANSFEREES OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE.

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933. SUCH SHARES MAY NOT BE SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION WITHOUT AN EXEMPTION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND AN OPINION OF LEGAL COUNSEL REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE ISSUER THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED.”

Any legend required by the “Blue Sky” laws of any state to the extent such laws are applicable to the Shares represented by the certificate so legended.

Seller acknowledges and agrees that, in order to ensure compliance with the restrictions referred to herein, Parent may issue appropriate “stop transfer” instructions to its transfer agent. The obligations under this Section 6.11 shall not expire.

6.12

Subject to the exceptions and limitations set forth in Section 6.12(c), Seller covenants and agrees that, commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the third (3rd) anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Noncompetition Period”), it shall not, without the prior written consent of Buyer, directly or indirectly, in any capacity (including as an officer, director, manager, member, stockholder, partner, employee, consultant, contractor, investor or lender), engage in or have any direct or indirect ownership interest in, any Competing Business located, operating or engaged in business in the State of Colorado.

(b)

“Competing Business” means providing security and training services to licensed cannabis growers and distributors in the State of Colorado.

(c)

Nothing in this Section 6.12 shall preclude Seller from investing in any publicly held company provided the aggregate beneficial ownership or rights to ownership of any class of such company’s securities by such Persons does not exceed five percent (5%) of the outstanding securities of such class.

(d)

Seller covenants and agrees that during the Noncompetition Period, it shall not employ, retain, engage or solicit the employment or engagement of services of any employee of Parent, Buyer, the Business or any of their Affiliates on a full- or part-time basis in a Competing Business.

(e)

Seller acknowledges that any violation of this Section 6.12 may result in irreparable injury to Buyer and the Business and agrees that Buyer shall be entitled to seek an injunction against Seller from any court having jurisdiction over the matter, restraining any further violation of this Section 6.12, which rights shall be cumulative and in addition to any other rights or remedies to which Buyer may be entitled. Seller acknowledges that it has carefully read this Agreement and has given careful consideration to the restraints imposed upon such Seller by this Section 6.12, and is in full accord as to their necessity for the reasonable and proper protection of confidential information and other legitimate business interests relating to the Business now existing and to be developed in the future. Seller expressly acknowledges and agrees that each and every restraint imposed by this Section 6.12 is reasonable with respect to subject matter, time period and geographical area.

(f)

In the event that any covenant contained in this Section 6.12 should ever be adjudicated to exceed the time, geographic, product or service or other limitations permitted by applicable Law in any jurisdiction, then any court is expressly empowered to reform such covenant, and such covenant shall be deemed reformed, in such jurisdiction to the maximum time, geographic, product or service or other limitations permitted by applicable Law.

ARTICLE 7
INDEMNIFICATION; SURVIVAL

7.1

Indemnification by Seller. Subject to the terms and conditions of this ARTICLE 7, following the Closing, Seller shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Buyer and Parent, and each of their Affiliates, and their respective stockholders, members, successors, assigns, managers, and representatives and each of their respective successors and assigns (collectively, the “Buyer Indemnified Parties”), and hold them harmless from, any Loss suffered or incurred by any such Buyer Indemnified Party, whether such Loss exists or accrues prior to, or subsequent to or on the Closing Date, to the extent such Loss arose or resulted from:

(a)

any inaccuracy or breach as of the date hereof or as of the Closing Date of any representation or warranty of Seller contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document;

(b)

the nonfulfillment, nonperformance or other breach of any agreement, covenant, obligation or undertaking of Seller contained in this or any other Transaction Document;

(c)

any Excluded Asset or Excluded Liability;

(d)

any Tax imposed on the Seller as a result of the Transactions; and

(e)

the operation of the Business prior to the Closing Date.

For purposes of determining whether there has been a breach and the amount of any losses that are the subject matter of a claim for indemnification, each representation and warranty in this Agreement will be read without regard and without giving effect to the term “material” or “material adverse effect” (fully as if any such word or phrase were deleted from such representation and warranty).

7.2

Indemnification by Buyer. Subject to the terms and conditions of this ARTICLE 7, following the Closing, Buyer shall indemnify the Seller and its respective members, successors, assigns, managers, agents and Representatives and each of their respective successors and assigns, heirs and beneficiaries (collectively, the “Seller Indemnified Parties”) against, and hold them harmless from, any Loss suffered or incurred by any such Seller Indemnified Party, whether such Loss exists or accrues prior or subsequent to the Closing Date, arising or resulting from or based upon:

(a)

any inaccuracy or breach of any representation or warranty of Buyer contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document;

(b)

the nonfulfillment, nonperformance or other breach of any agreement, covenant, obligation or undertaking of Buyer or Parent contained in this or any other Transaction Document; and

(c)

the operation of the Business by Buyer or Parent after the Closing Date.

7.3

Termination of Indemnification. The obligations to indemnify and hold harmless an Indemnified Party (i) pursuant to Section 7.1 and Section 7.2 shall terminate when the applicable representation or warranty terminates pursuant to Section 7.6; provided, however, that such obligations to indemnify and hold harmless shall not terminate with respect to any specific matter as to which the Person to be indemnified shall have, before the expiration of the applicable period, previously made a claim by delivering a written notice thereof (stating in reasonable detail the basis of such claim) (a “Claim Notice”) to the Indemnifying Person.

7.4

Procedures Relating to Indemnification for Third-Party Claims.

(a)

In order for an Indemnified Person to be entitled to any indemnification provided for under this ARTICLE 7 in respect of, arising out of or involving a claim or demand made by any third-party against the Indemnified Person (a “Third-Party Claim”), such Indemnified Person must provide the Indemnifying Person with a Claim Notice regarding the Third-Party Claim promptly and in any event within thirty (30) days after receipt by such Indemnified Person of written notice of the Third-Party Claim; provided, however, that failure to give such notification shall not affect the indemnification provided hereunder except, and solely to the extent that, the Indemnifying Person shall have been actually and materially prejudiced as a result of such failure; provided, further that only Seller, or Seller’s successors or assigns, may make claims on behalf of Seller.

(b)

If a Third-Party Claim is made against an Indemnified Person, the Indemnifying Person will be entitled to participate in the defense thereof and, if it so chooses, to assume the defense thereof with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Person; provided, however, that any such assumption of the defense by the Indemnifying Person shall constitute an acknowledgement and acceptance by the Indemnifying Person of its obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Person for all Losses arising out of such Third-Party Claim. If the Third-Party Claim includes allegations for which the Indemnifying Person both would and would not be obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Person, the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person shall in that case jointly assume the defense thereof. If in the reasonable good faith opinion of any Indemnified Person a conflict of interest exists in respect of such claim (including that the Indemnified Person has defenses available to it that may conflict with those of the Indemnifying Person), such Indemnified Person shall have the right to employ separate counsel to represent such Indemnified Person and in that event the legal fees and expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Person in connection with the defense thereof shall be paid by the Indemnifying Person. If the Indemnifying Person assumes such defense, the Indemnified Person shall have the right to participate in the defense thereof and, at its own expense, to employ counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnifying Person, separate from the counsel employed by the Indemnifying Person, it being understood that the Indemnifying Person shall control such defense. The Indemnifying Person shall be liable for the fees and expenses of counsel employed by the Indemnified Person for any period during which the Indemnifying Person has not assumed the defense thereof. The Indemnified Person shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Person in the defense or settlement thereof, and the Indemnifying Person shall reimburse the Indemnified Person for all its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in connection therewith. The Indemnifying Person shall not, in the defense of a third party claim, make any payment of any of such claims, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to any third party claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Person (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) unless the judgment or proposed settlement (i) involves only the payment of money damages and does not involve any finding or admission of any violation of Law, (ii) includes, as an unconditional term thereof, a release of such Indemnified Person given by the claimant or the plaintiff from any liabilities arising from such Third Party Claim, and (iii) does not impose an injunction or other equitable relief, directly or indirectly, upon such Indemnified Person or result in an admission of any wrongdoing by the Indemnified Person. If the Indemnifying Person fails to vigorously defend the Third Party Claim, then the Indemnified Person will have the right to defend, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Person, the Third Party Claim by all appropriate proceedings, which proceedings will be prosecuted by the Indemnified Person (with the consent of the Indemnifying Person, which consent will not be unreasonable withheld conditioned or delayed), but only to the extent that the Indemnified Person is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this ARTICLE 7.

7.5

Procedures Relating to Indemnification for Non-Third-Party Claims. In order for an Indemnified Person to be entitled to any indemnification provided for under this Agreement in respect of, arising out of or involving a claim or demand that is not a Third-Party Claim, such Indemnified Person must provide the Indemnifying Person with a Claim Notice; provided, however, that failure to give such notification shall not affect the indemnification provided hereunder except, and solely to the extent that, the Indemnifying Person shall have been actually and materially prejudiced as a result of such failure provided, further that only Seller, or Seller’s successors or assigns, may make claims on behalf of Seller or Seller’s parties. The Claim Notice shall set forth the amount, if known, or, if not known, an estimate of the foreseeable maximum amount of claimed Losses (which estimate shall not be conclusive of the final amount of such Losses) and a description of the basis for such claim. The Indemnifying Person will have thirty (30) days from receipt of such Claim Notice to dispute the claim and will reasonably cooperate and assist the Indemnified Person in determining the validity of the claim for indemnification. If the Indemnifying Person does not give notice to the Indemnified Person that it disputes such claim (which such dispute notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the reasons for such dispute) within thirty (30) days after its receipt of the Claim Notice, the claim specified in such Claim Notice shall be conclusively deemed a Loss subject to indemnification hereunder.

7.6

Survival of Representations, Warranties, Covenants and Agreements. The representations and warranties of Seller contained in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents shall survive the Closing and remain in full force (a) indefinitely, with respect to Section 3.1 (Organization, Power, Standing), Section 3.2 (Authorization and Approval of Agreements), and Section 3.7 (Leased Real Property; Tangible Property; Title to Acquired Assets), (b) for a period of sixty (60) days following the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations (including extensions), with respect to matters covered by Section 3.9 (Tax Matters), and (c) for a period of twenty-four (24) months following the Closing Date with respect to all other representations, warranties and covenants, except that any representation or warranty that would otherwise terminate in accordance with clause (i), (ii), or (iii) will continue to survive if a written notice of a breach thereof shall have been timely given to the breaching party by the other party on or prior to such termination date, until the related claim for indemnification is satisfied or otherwise resolved as provided in this ARTICLE 7. The representations and warranties of Buyer or Parent contained in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents shall survive the Closing and remain in full force (x) indefinitely, with respect to Section 5.1 (Organization, Corporate Power, Authority), Section 5.2 (Authorization of Agreement), and (y) for a period of period of twenty-four (24) months following the Closing Date with respect to all other representations, warranties and covenants, except that any representation or warranty that would otherwise terminate in accordance with clause (x) and (y) will continue to survive if a written notice of a breach thereof shall have been timely given to the breaching party by the other party on or prior to such termination date, until the related claim for indemnification is satisfied or otherwise resolved as provided in this ARTICLE 7.

7.7

Sole Remedy. Provided that Closing has occurred, except with respect to claims related to fraud or willful misconduct, claims made pursuant to this ARTICLE 7 shall constitute the sole remedy for Losses under the terms of this Agreement and in connection with the Transactions..

7.8

Right to Indemnification. The rights of Buyer to indemnification or any other remedy under this Agreement shall not be impacted or limited by any knowledge that Buyer may have acquired, or could have acquired, whether before or after the Closing Date, nor by any investigation or diligence by Buyer. The Seller hereby acknowledges that, regardless of any investigation made (or not made) by or on behalf of Buyer, and regardless of the results of any such investigation, Buyer has entered into the Transactions in express reliance upon the representations and warranties of the Seller Parties made in this Agreement.

7.9

Characterization of Indemnification Payments. The parties shall treat any indemnification payment made pursuant to this Article 7 as an adjustment to the purchase price unless the Indemnified Person provides an opinion of a nationally recognized tax counsel that any such amount will not constitute an adjustment to the purchase price for federal income tax purposes.

7.10

Limitations on Indemnification. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, the Buyer Indemnified Parties shall have the right to payment by the Seller Indemnified Parties under Section 7.1(a) only if, and to the extent that the Buyer Indemnified Parties shall have incurred aggregate Losses arising under Section Section 7.1(a) (other than breaches of Section 3.1 (Organization, Power, Standing), Section 3.2 (Authorization and Approval of Agreements), Section 3.7 (Title), Section 3.9 (Tax Matters), and Section 3.17 (Brokers)) in an amount in excess of $50,000, in which case the Seller shall be liable from the first dollar of such Loss; provided, however this Section 7.10 shall not apply to claims relating to Excluded Assets or Excluded Liabilities, including bona fide third party claims of non-payment. The aggregate amount of all Losses for which Seller shall be liable to Buyer Indemnified Parties pursuant to this Agreement and any Transaction Documents shall not exceed the lesser of $750,000.00 or 30% of the total Purchase Price.
