Buyer shall indemnify, defend and hold Seller and its affiliates harmless from and against any and all costs, losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses (“Losses”) suffered or incurred by Seller or any of its affiliates as a result of the activities of Buyer undertaken under this Section 9.1 other than in the case of any Losses arising in whole or in part from the intentionally wrongful or grossly negligent actions of Seller from and after the Closing Date.

9.2 Risk of Loss.

Seller acknowledges and agrees that Buyer does not have any liability or obligation to Seller in respect of any loss, theft or damage to property experienced by Seller at any time, whether occurring prior to, on or after the date hereof. If Closing occurs, Buyer shall be entitled to the proceeds of any insurance or other proceeds payable with respect to the losses on the Acquired Assets for loss or damage occurring prior to the Closing Date, whether received prior to, at or after Closing.

9.3 Consents to Assignment.

Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, this Agreement shall not constitute an agreement to assign any Assumed Executory Contract or any claim or right or any benefit arising thereunder or resulting therefrom if an attempted assignment thereof, without the consent of a third party thereto, would constitute a breach thereof or in any way adversely affect the rights of Buyer thereunder and, if applicable, after taking into account the operation of the Bankruptcy Code. If such consent is not obtained, or if an attempted assignment thereof would be

ineffective or would affect the rights thereunder so that Buyer would not receive all such rights, Seller will cooperate with Buyer, in all reasonable respects, to provide to Buyer the benefits under any such Assumed Executory Contract, claim or right including, without limitation, enforcement for the benefit of Buyer of any and all rights of Seller against a third party thereto arising out of the breach or cancellation by such third party or otherwise.

This Agreement, together with all exhibits and schedules attached or to be attached hereto constitutes the entire agreement among the parties pertaining to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings, negotiations and discussions, whether oral or written, of the parties (except the Confidentiality Agreement); provided that the forms of agreements attached hereto as Exhibits shall be superseded by the copies of such agreements by the parties thereto to be conclusive evidence of such parties’ approval of any change or modification or waiver of this Agreement shall be binding unless executed in writing by or on behalf of the party to be

bound thereby. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed or shall constitute a waiver of any other provision hereof (whether or not similar), nor shall such waiver constitute a continuing waiver unless otherwise expressly provided.

10.7 Construction.

Unless stated to the contrary, all references to Articles, Sections paragraphs or clauses herein shall be to the specified Article, Section, paragraph or clause of this Agreement, and all references to Exhibits and Schedules shall be to the specified Exhibits and Schedules attached hereto. All Exhibits and Schedules attached are made a part hereof. All terms defined herein shall have the same meaning in the Exhibits and Schedules, except as otherwise provided therein. All references in this Agreement to “this Agreement” shall be deemed to include the Exhibits and Schedules attached hereto.

No Person other than the parties hereto, shall have any rights or claims under this Agreement.

10.9 No Waiver.

The failure of either party hereto to seek redress for any breach, or to insist upon the strict performance, of any covenant or condition of the Agreement by the other shall not be, or be deemed to be, a waiver of the breach or failure to perform, nor prevent a subsequent act or omission in violation of, or not strictly complying with, the terms hereof from constituting a default hereunder.

10.10 Multiple Counterparts.

This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

10.11 Invalidity.

In the event that any one or more of the provisions, or any portion thereof, contained in this Agreement or in any other instrument referred to herein, shall, for any reason, be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, then to the maximum extent permitted by law, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision, or any portion thereof, of this Agreement or any other such instrument.

10.12 Publicity.

No party shall issue any press release or make any public statement regarding the transactions contemplated hereby, without the prior approval of the other party, and the parties hereto shall issue a mutually acceptable press release as soon as practicable after the earlier of the Closing or the entry of the Sale Approval Order; provided that nothing herein shall be deemed to prohibit any party from making any disclosure which its counsel deems necessary in order to fulfill such party’s disclosure or notice obligations imposed by law or by the Sale Procedures Order.

10.13 Further Assurances.

Without limiting any other rights or obligations of the parties contained in this Agreement, following the Closing, Seller agrees to execute such documents, instruments or conveyances and take such actions as may be reasonably requested by Buyer’s counsel and otherwise reasonably cooperate with Buyer, its Affiliates and their respective Representatives in connection with any action that may be necessary or advisable to put Buyer in possession of the Assets.

10.14 Access to Books and Records.

Seller will permit representatives of Buyer to have access at reasonable times and with reasonable notice, and in a manner so as not to interfere with the normal business operations of Seller, to the premises, properties, personnel, books, records (excluding Tax records), contracts, and documents pertaining to the Acquired Assets. Buyer will treat and hold any information it receives in the course of the reviews contemplated by this section in accordance with the Confidentiality Agreement.

10.15 Cumulative Remedies.

All rights and remedies of either party hereto are cumulative of each other and of every other right or remedy such party may otherwise have at law or in equity, and the exercise of one or more rights or remedies shall not prejudice or impair the concurrent or subsequent exercise of other rights or remedies; provided, however, that any Person pursuing any rights and remedies with respect to access to books and records shall first agree to reasonable confidentiality restriction with Buyer.

10.16 Termination of Covenants, Representations, and Warranties.

The covenants, representations, and warranties made by Seller and/or Buyer herein shall terminate as of the Closing.

10.17 No Impediment to Liquidation.

Nothing herein shall be deemed or construed so as to limit, restrict or impose any impediment to Seller’s right to liquidate, dissolve and wind-up its affairs and to cease all business activities and operations at such time as it may determine following the Closing.

10.18 Representation by Counsel; Mutual Negotiation.

Each party has been represented by counsel of its choice in negotiating this Agreement.
