(ii) Except as set forth in Section 6.2(a)(iv) hereof and for claims arising out of Section 6.2(a)(i)(C), the Company shall not have any liability to any Acquirer Indemnitee to the extent that the aggregate amount of Losses incurred or sustained by the Acquirer Indemnitees exceeds the Escrow Amount.

(iii) Except for claims arising out Sections 6.2(a)(i)(C) and (E), Acquirer may not make any claims against the Escrow Fund unless the aggregate Losses incurred or sustained exceed One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) (the “Basket”) (at which such time claims may be made for all Losses incurred or sustained).

(iv) Any limitations set forth in this Section 6.2(a) or otherwise shall not apply to Losses as a result of fraud, willful misconduct or willful misrepresentation. With respect to actions grounded in fraud, willful misconduct or willful misrepresentation, (A) the right of a party to be indemnified and held harmless pursuant to the indemnification provisions in this Agreement shall be in addition to and cumulative of any other remedy of such party at law or in equity and (B) no such party shall, by exercising any remedy available to it under this Article 6, be deemed to have elected such remedy exclusively or to have waived any other remedy, whether at law or in equity, available to it.

(b) Indemnification Escrow.

(i) At Closing, $1,025,000 (the “Escrow Amount”) of the Purchase Price will be placed in escrow with U.S. Bank National Association (the “Escrow Agent”) by Acquirer as security for the indemnification obligations of the Company under Section 6.2(a) hereof (the “Escrow Fund”) pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement, the form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit A.

For the avoidance of doubt, in no event may any claim be asserted pursuant to this Agreement after the Expiration Date.

ASSET PURCHASE AGREEMENT

-36-

(c) Claims Upon Escrow. At any time on or before the last day of the Escrow Period, Acquirer may deliver to the Company a certificate signed by any officer of Acquirer in good faith (an “Officer’s Certificate”): (A) stating that Acquirer or another Acquirer Indemnitee has paid or properly accrued or reasonably anticipates that it will have to pay or accrue Losses and the amount thereof, and (B) specifying in reasonable detail the individual items of Losses included in the amount so stated, the date each such item was paid or properly accrued, or the basis for such anticipated liability, and the nature of the misrepresentation, breach of warranty, agreement or covenant to which such item is related and the relevant section number of this Agreement, and, subject to the provisions of Section 6.2(d), receive from the Escrow Fund, cash in an amount equal to such Losses. Where the basis for a claim upon the Escrow Fund by Acquirer is that Acquirer reasonably anticipates that it will incur or pay a Loss (a “Contingent Loss”), no payment will be made from the Escrow Fund for such Contingent Loss unless and until such Contingent Loss is actually incurred or paid and a further Officer’s Certificate with respect thereto is delivered to the Company; provided, however, that the amount of such Contingent Loss shall not be released from the Escrow Fund unless and until such Contingent Loss is incurred or paid or it is conclusively determined that no actual Loss will be incurred or paid with regard thereto.

(d) Objections to Claims.

(i) For a period of twenty (20) Business Days from and after delivery of any Officer’s Certificate to the Company, the Escrow Agent shall not deliver to Acquirer cash from the Escrow Fund with respect to the Losses claimed in such Officer’s Certificate unless Acquirer shall have received written authorization from the Company to distribute such cash from the Escrow Fund. After the expiration of such twenty (20) Business Day period, Escrow Agent shall deliver to Acquirer the portion of the Escrow Fund in accordance with Section 6.2(d) hereof and the Company shall no longer be entitled to receive such amount hereunder, provided that no such delivery may be made if the Company shall object, in a written statement delivered to Acquirer and the Escrow Agent in accordance with the terms hereof, to the claim made in the Officer’s Certificate, and such statement shall have been delivered to Acquirer and the Escrow Agent prior to the expiration of such twenty (20) Business Day period.

(ii) In case the Company shall so object in writing to any claim or claims by Acquirer made in any Officer’s Certificate, Acquirer shall have twenty (20) Business Days to respond in a written statement to the objection of the Company. If after such twenty (20) Business Day period there remains a dispute as to any claims, the Company and Acquirer shall attempt in good faith for thirty (30) Business Days to agree upon the rights of the respective parties with respect to each of such claims. If the Company and Acquirer should so agree, a memorandum setting forth such agreement shall be prepared by Acquirer and signed by the Company and Acquirer. Acquirer and the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to rely on any such memorandum and shall retain or release the cash from the Escrow Fund in accordance with the terms thereof.

(iii) Resolution of Conflicts. If no agreement can be reached after good faith negotiation between the parties pursuant to Section 6.2(d)(ii), the Company and Acquirer

ASSET PURCHASE AGREEMENT

-37-

may initiate formal arbitration pursuant to Section 9.8 to resolve such dispute. The decision of the arbitrator(s) as to the validity and amount of any claim in such Officer’s Certificate shall be binding and conclusive upon the parties to this Agreement, and notwithstanding anything in Article 6 hereof, the parties shall be required to act in accordance with such decision and the Escrow Agent shall be required to make payments out of the Escrow Fund in accordance therewith.

(e) Third-Party Claims. In the event Acquirer becomes aware of a third-party claim (a “Third Party Claim”) which Acquirer reasonably determines in good faith may result in a demand against the Escrow Fund, Acquirer shall notify the Company of such claim, and the Company, shall be entitled, at its expense, to participate in any defense of such claim. Acquirer shall have the right in its reasonable discretion to settle any Third Party Claim; provided, however, that if Acquirer settles any Third Party Claim without the Company’s consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), such settlement shall not be dispositive in the event Acquirer makes a claim against the Escrow Fund with respect to the amount of Losses incurred by Acquirer in such settlement. In the event that the Company has consented to any such settlement, the Company shall have no power or authority to object under any provision of this Article 6 to the amount of any claim by Acquirer against the Escrow Fund with respect to the amount of Losses incurred by Acquirer in such settlement.

(f) Indemnification by Acquirer. The Company and its officers, directors, employees, agents, Affiliates and Associates (collectively, the “Company Indemnitees”) shall be indemnified and held harmless by Acquirer from and against any and all Losses (whether or not involving a Third Party Claim) incurred by the Company directly or indirectly as a result of any Liability of which is an Assumed Liability hereunder.

(g) Treatment of Payments. To the extent permitted by law, the parties agree to treat payments made under this Article 6 as adjustments to the Purchase Price.
