(a) Subject to Section 6.3, the Holder hereby agrees to indemnify and hold
the Purchaser and its respective directors, officers, employees, agents,
successors, assigns and their affiliates (collectively, the "Purchaser
Indemnified Parties") harmless from and against any and all losses, liabilities,
-4
obligations, damages, claims, judgments, assessments, penalties, costs and
expenses, including reasonable attorneys' and other professionals' fees and
disbursements paid by either the indemnified or indemnifying party
(collectively, "Losses") based upon, attributable to or resulting from the
breach of any representation, warranty or covenant of the Holder set forth
herein.
(a) The Purchaser hereby agrees to indemnify and hold the Holder and its
directors, officers, employees, agents and successors (collectively, the "Holder
Indemnified Parties") harmless from and against any and all Losses based upon,
attributable to or resulting from the breach of any representation, warranty or
covenant of the Purchaser set forth herein.
6.2 Indemnification Procedures.
(a) In the event that any third-party legal proceedings shall be instituted
or any third-party claim or demand ("Claim") shall be asserted by any Person in
respect of which payment may be sought under Section 6.1 or Section 6.3 hereof,
the indemnified party shall promptly cause written notice of the assertion of
any Claim of which it has knowledge which is covered by this indemnity to be
forwarded to the indemnifying party. The indemnifying party shall have the
right, in its sole discretion, to be represented by counsel of its choice, and
to thereby assume the defense of, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with any
Claim which relates to any Losses indemnified against hereunder. If the
indemnifying party elects to assume the defense of, negotiate, settle or
otherwise deal with any Claim which relates to any Losses indemnified against
hereunder, it shall within five (5) days of receipt of written notice of the
assertion of a Claim (or sooner, if the nature of the Claim so requires) notify
the indemnified party of its intent to do so. If the indemnifying party elects
not to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with any Claim which
relates to any Losses indemnified against hereunder, fails to notify the
indemnified party of its election as herein provided or contests its obligation
to indemnify the indemnified party for such Losses under this Agreement, the
indemnified party may defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with
such Claim. If the indemnifying party shall assume the defense of any Claim, the
indemnified party may participate, at his or its own expense, in the defense of
such Claim; provided, however, that such indemnified party shall be entitled to
participate in any such defense with separate counsel if, (i) so requested by
the indemnifying party to participate or (ii) in the reasonable opinion of
counsel to the indemnified party, a conflict or potential conflict exists
between the indemnified party and the indemnifying party that would make such
separate representation advisable. The parties hereto agree to cooperate fully
with each other in connection with the defense, negotiation or settlement of any
such Claim.
(b) After any final judgment or award shall have been rendered by a court,
arbitration board or administrative agency of competent jurisdiction and the
expiration of the time in which to appeal therefrom, or a settlement shall have
been consummated, or the indemnified party and the indemnifying party shall have
arrived at a mutually binding agreement with respect to a Claim hereunder, the
indemnified party shall forward to the indemnifying party and the escrow agent
under the escrow agreement of even date herewith between the Holder, the
Purchaser and such escrow agent notice of any Losses pursuant to this Agreement
with respect to such matter.
-5
(c) Except with respect to the determination of an Escrow Termination Event
(as hereinafter defined), the failure of the indemnified party to give
reasonably prompt notice of any Claim shall not release, waive or otherwise
affect the indemnifying party's obligations with respect thereto except to the
extent that the indemnifying party can demonstrate actual loss and prejudice as
a result of such failure.
6.3 Escrow.
(a) Upon receipt thereof, Winter Harbor shall deposit in an interest
bearing escrow (the "Escrow") the Purchase Price and those securities issued to
Winter Harbor pursuant to the Securities Exchange Agreement (such securities and
any additional or other shares or securities or property into which such
securities are converted or for which such securities are exchanged including
through any reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, stock dividend,
stock split or reverse stock split, or other transaction being the "Issued
Securities"). The Escrow shall terminate, and the remaining contents thereof
transferred to Winter Harbor, free and clear of any claim, liens, encumbrances
by Purchaser or any Purchaser Indemnified Party, upon the first occurrence of an
Escrow Termination Event. An Escrow Termination Event shall have occurred upon
the earlier of (i) the end of the 540th day after the date of this Agreement, if
during such period no Red Cube AG Claim premised upon the Red Cube AG Securities
Purchase Agreement has been initiated (other than a claim in connection with the
mediation currently pending before the American Arbitration Association), and
(ii) the final resolution or settlement of all claims brought against Winter
Harbor or Purchaser before the 540th day after the date of this Agreement that
could result in potentially indemnifiable losses related to any Red Cube AG
Claim.
(b) Winter Harbor and Purchaser acknowledge that as a result of the
transaction contemplated by this Agreement, there is a risk that Purchaser or a
Purchaser Indemnified Party may be exposed to (i) Losses resulting from a
determination and order by a court of competent jurisdiction, arbitral panel or
other adjudicatory entity that, pursuant to the Red Cube AG Securities Purchase
Agreement, Red Cube AG is entitled to the transfer of ownership from Purchaser
of all or substantially all the Covered Securities (a "Specific Performance
Claim") or (ii) Losses premised upon the Red Cube AG Securities Purchase
Agreement and which arise from a Red Cube AG Claim which is not a Specific
Performance Claim (a "Red Cube Damage Claim"). If, prior to the occurrence of an
Escrow Termination Event, Purchaser or a Purchaser Indemnified Person gives
notice of a Specific Performance Claim or a claim under Section 6.1(a) above,
then Winter Harbor shall, solely out of and up to a maximum of the Issued
Securities and Purchase Price deposited in the Escrow, indemnify and hold
harmless Purchaser and Purchaser Indemnified Person from all Losses arising out
of such Specific Performance Claim or claim under Section 6.1(a) above. If,
prior to the occurrence of an Escrow Termination Event, Purchaser or a Purchaser
Indemnified Person gives notice of a Red Cube Damage Claim, then Winter Harbor
shall, solely out of and up to a maximum of the Issued Securities deposited in
the Escrow, indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser and Purchaser Indemnified
Person from all Losses arising out of such Red Cube Damage Claim. Winter
Harbor's total aggregate liability for all Specific Performance Claims and all
claims under Section 6.1(a) above shall not exceed the loss of its right to the
Issued Securities and Purchase Price deposited in the Escrow. Winter Harbor's
total aggregate liability for all Red Cube Damage Claims shall not exceed the
loss of its right to the Issued Securities deposited in the Escrow.
-6
(c) All Losses properly due a Purchaser or Purchaser Indemnified Person
pursuant to this Section 6.3, Section 6.1 and Section 6.2 (including, without
limitation, reimbursement of attorneys' or other professional fees arising out
of article VI of this Agreement) shall first be satisfied by transferring to
Purchaser or the applicable Purchaser Indemnified Party a number of Issued
Securities determined by dividing the applicable Loss by the then current market
price (as calculated by the average closing price for I-Link common stock for
the most recent ten (10) days upon which such securities traded) of such shares.
In the event that the total number of Issued Securities then deposited in the
Escrow is insufficient to satisfy the applicable Losses, and solely where such
Losses arise exclusively and solely from a Red Cube Specific Performance Claim
or from a claim under Section 6.1(a), any shortfall shall be satisfied by
transferring to the Purchaser or applicable Purchaser Indemnified Person, a
portion, up to a maximum of the total Purchase Price, of the cash proceeds then
deposited in the Escrow. 6.4 Tax Treatment of Indemnity Payments. The parties
agree to treat any indemnity payment made pursuant to this Article VI as an
adjustment to the Purchase Price for federal, state, local and foreign income
tax purposes.
6.5 Settlement of Specific Performance Claims. Holder hereby agrees it
shall not enter into any agreement to settle any Specific Performance Claim that
would attempt to transfer to any other party any right, title to or interest in
or to the Owned Securities from Purchaser.
