ARTICLE VI. INDEMNIFICATION
6.1 Indemnification.
5
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,
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.
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.
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.
6
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
7
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.
(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.
