ARTICLE 7 TAX MATTERS

7.1 Preparation of Tax Returns

(a) Tax Return Preparation. The Purchaser shall cause to be prepared and filed on a timely basis all Tax Returns for the Purchased Entity for (i) any Pre-Closing Tax Period for which Tax Returns have not been filed as of the Closing Date and (ii) for any Straddle Period for which Tax Returns are required to be prepared and filed (all such Tax Returns referred to in clause (i) and (ii) of this Section 7.1(a) being referred to herein as the “Stub Period Returns”). The Purchaser shall prepare each such Stub Period Return on a basis consistent with (x) applicable Law and (y) the past practices and procedures of the Purchased Entity, as applicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in any Stub Period Return, the Purchased Entity shall not deduct any amount in the nature of a reserve or claim any Tax credit that would require the Purchased Entity to include in a taxable period ending after the Time of Closing any amount of income, unless the Tax liability in respect of such income (determined as though such income were the only income or loss of the entity for the tax period and without regard for the availability of any loss carryforwards or carrybacks) is taken into account in computing the Closing Working Capital. For the avoidance of doubt, the Purchaser may cause the Purchased Entity to make an election pursuant to subsection 256(9) of the Tax Act in respect of the taxation year of the Purchased Entity, as the case may be, ending on the acquisition of control of it by the Purchaser. The Purchaser shall provide to the Sellers’ Representative for its review a draft of each Stub Period Return no later than 30 days in the case of an income Tax Return, and 10 days in the case of any other Tax Return, prior to the due date for filing such Tax Return with the appropriate Governmental Authorities. The Sellers’ Representative shall notify the Purchaser in writing within 15 days in the case of an income Tax Return, and 5 days in the case of any other Tax Return, after delivery of a Stub Period Return if it has any reasonable comments with respect to items set forth in such Stub Period Return. The Purchaser shall consider in good faith all such comments.

-62-

(b) Payment of Pre-Closing Taxes. Other than Taxes which were specifically taken into account in computing the Closing Working Capital, MSR shall pay (i) all Taxes due with respect to all Tax Returns for the Purchased Entity for any Pre-Closing Tax Period and (ii) with respect to all Tax Returns for the Purchased Entity for any Straddle Period, Taxes allocable to the portion of the Straddle Period ending immediately prior to the Closing Date (as determined under Section 7.1(c)).

(c) Straddle Periods. In the case of any Straddle Period, the amount of Taxes allocable to the portion of the Straddle Period ending immediately prior to the Closing Date shall be:

(i) In the case of Taxes imposed on a periodic basis (such as real or personal property Taxes), the amount of such Taxes for the entire period (or, in the case of such Taxes determined on an arrears basis, the amount of such Taxes for the immediately preceding period) multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of calendar days in the Straddle Period prior to the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire relevant Straddle Period; and

(ii) In the case of Taxes not described in subparagraph (i) above (such as franchise Taxes, Taxes that are based upon or related to income or receipts, or Taxes that are based upon occupancy or imposed in connection with any sale or other transfer or assignment of property), the amount of any such Taxes shall be determined as if such taxable period ended immediately prior to the Closing Date.

7.2 Tax Contests

If a Purchaser’s Indemnified Party receives any written proposal to assess or reassess, assessment, reassessment, appeal or notification of similar Proceeding (each, a “Tax Notice”) with respect to any Tax in respect of which a claim may be made for indemnification under this Agreement (an “Indemnified Tax”), such Purchaser’s Indemnified Party shall promptly (but in any event within 10 Business Days of receipt) deliver a copy of the Tax Notice to the Sellers’ Representative, together with all correspondence relating to, and any other documents received in respect of, such Tax Notice. The failure to give such notice shall not relieve the Sellers of the Tax indemnification obligations provided hereunder except to the extent that such failure materially affects the Sellers’ ability to defend such claim or respond in a timely manner, or in any way materially prejudices the Sellers. The foregoing notwithstanding, the Purchaser may not settle any Tax audit or other Tax contest for Indemnified Taxes without the prior written consent of the Sellers’ Representative, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. For greater certainty, the right to control, participate and settle any Tax audit or other Tax contest shall be subject to Section 10.10.

7.3 Tax Indemnification Events

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the following provisions shall apply in respect of any claims for Indemnified Taxes:

(a) Initial Tax Payments. In the case of a Tax Notice that is a notice of assessment or reassessment, a notice of confirmation of an assessment or reassessment, a notice of garnishment, or a similar document in respect of any Indemnified Taxes, the Sellers shall, within

-63-

15 days of receipt of written notice of such claim (whether by the Sellers or the Sellers’ Representative), reimburse the applicable Purchaser’s Indemnified Party for an amount equal to (a) the full amount of such Indemnified Taxes in respect of which a Governmental Authority has taken or has given notice in writing of an intention to take collection action, or (b) the full amount that has been garnished and applied towards any Indemnified Taxes, as applicable.

(b) Final Determination True-Up. Upon the occurrence of a Tax Indemnification Event, (i) to the extent that the total of the amounts previously paid by the Sellers in respect of the relevant Indemnified Taxes is less than the amount so determined to be the amount of the Indemnified Taxes, the Sellers shall forthwith (and, in any event, within fifteen days of the time that the applicable Purchaser’s Indemnified Party notifies the Sellers’ Representative of the occurrence of the Tax Indemnification Event) pay to such Purchaser’s Indemnified Party the amount of the Indemnified Taxes less the total of the amounts previously paid, and (ii) to the extent that the total of the amounts previously paid by the Sellers in respect of such Indemnified Taxes exceeds the amount so determined to be the amount of the Indemnified Taxes, such Purchaser’s Indemnified Party shall forthwith upon receipt or confirmation of any refund or credit of such Indemnified Taxes (and, in any event, within 15 days of the receipt or confirmation of such refund or credit) pay to the Sellers the amount of such refund or credit (including any interest paid or credited with respect thereto but net of any Taxes payable by the Purchaser’s Indemnified Party in respect of such refund, credit or interest).

7.4 Tax Cooperation

Each Party shall provide reasonable cooperation to the other Party and its counsel in respect of Tax matters, including:

(a) making available to each other in a timely fashion such data, documents and other information as may reasonably be required for the preparation and filing of all Stub Period Returns, or for the conduct of any Tax contest, and preserving all such data, documents and information until the expiry of the limitation period under applicable Law with respect to the taxation years or periods covered by such Stub Period Returns, or until a Final Determination has been made in respect of such Tax contest, as the case may be; and

(b) timely signing and delivering such certificates or forms as may be necessary or appropriate to establish an exemption from (or otherwise reduce) Taxes, or an exemption from (or an extension in respect of) an obligation to file Tax Returns.

7.5 Elections and Covenants

(a) Excessive Eligible Dividend Designation Election. If it is determined that the Purchased Entity made an “excessive eligible dividend designation” (as defined in subsection 89(1) of the Tax Act), the Sellers hereby concur (or shall cause the recipient of the relevant dividend to concur) in the making of an election under subsection 185.1(2) of the Tax Act in respect of the full amount thereof, and such election shall be made by the Purchased Entity, as the case may be, in the manner and within the time prescribed by subsections 185.1(2) and 185.1(3) of the Tax Act.

(b) Excessive Capital Dividend Election. If it is determined that the Purchased Entity made an election under subsection 83(2) of the Tax Act in respect of the full amount of any dividend payable by it on shares of any class of its capital stock and the full amount of such dividend exceeded the amount of the Purchased Entity’s “capital dividend account” (as defined

-64-

in the Tax Act) immediately before the dividend became payable, the Sellers hereby concur (or shall cause the recipient of the relevant dividend to concur) in the making of an election under subsection 184(3) of the Tax Act in respect of such dividend.

If an Indemnified Party becomes aware of any act, omission or state of facts that may give rise to Damages in respect of which a right of indemnification is provided for under this Article 10, the Indemnified Party shall promptly give written notice thereof (a “Claim Notice”) to the Indemnifying Party; provided, that Sellers’ Representative shall give or receive such notices on behalf of any Seller Indemnified Party, as applicable. The Claim Notice shall specify whether the potential Damages arise as a result of a claim by a Person against the Indemnified Party (a “Third Party Claim”) or whether the potential Damages arise as a result of a claim directly by the Indemnified Party against the Indemnifying Party (a “Direct Claim”), and shall also specify with reasonable particularity (to the extent that the information is available):

(a) the factual basis for the Direct Claim or Third Party Claim, as the case may be; and

 

(b) the amount of the potential Damages arising therefrom, if known.

If, through the fault of the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party (or the Sellers’ Representative, as the case may be) does not receive a Claim Notice in time effectively to contest the determination of any liability susceptible of being contested or to assert a right to recover an amount under applicable insurance coverage, then the liability of the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party under this Article 10 shall be reduced only to the extent that Damages are actually incurred by the Indemnifying Party resulting from the Indemnified Party’s failure to give the Claim Notice on a timely basis.

-72-

provided, however, that in the event of fraud or wilful misconduct of the Sellers, then notwithstanding the foregoing time limitations, the Purchaser’s Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to deliver a Claim Notice at any time for purposes of such a claim. This Section 10.6(a) shall not be construed to impose any time limit on the Purchaser’s right to assert a claim to recover Damages under Section 10.3(b) and Section 10.3(d) whether or not the basis on which such a claim is asserted could also entitle the Purchaser to make a claim for Damages pursuant to Section 10.3(a).

(b) Notice by the Sellers. No Damages may be recovered from the Purchaser pursuant to Section 10.4(a) unless a Claim Notice is delivered by the Sellers’ Representative on or before XXX  XXX XXX XXX XXX XXX provided, however, that in the event of fraud of the Purchaser, then notwithstanding the foregoing time limitations, the Sellers’ Representative shall be entitled to deliver a Claim Notice at any time for purposes of such a claim. This Section 10.6(b) shall not be construed to impose any time limit on the Sellers’ right to assert a claim to recover Damages under Section 10.4(b), 10.4(c), or 10.4(d) whether or not the basis on which such a claim is asserted could also entitle the Seller to make a claim for Damages pursuant to Section 10.4(a).

(c) In the event that written notice of any bona fide claim for indemnification under this Article 10 shall have been given in accordance with this Agreement within the applicable period specified in this Section 10.6, the rights and obligations that are the subject of such claim for indemnification shall survive with respect to such claim until such time as such claim is fully and finally resolved.

10.7 Monetary Limitations

(c) XXX  XXX XXX XXX  XXX XXX XXX  XXX XXX the Purchaser and the Sellers’ Representative shall execute and deliver a joint direction to the Escrow Agent authorizing the Escrow Agent to release whatever portion of the Indemnity Escrow Amount was not previously and is not then subject to a claim for Damages in accordance with the terms of this Article 10 to an account or accounts designated by the Sellers’ Representative in writing.

10.8 Limitation Periods

Notwithstanding the provisions of the Limitations Act, 2002 (Ontario) or any other statute, a proceeding or arbitration in respect of a claim for indemnification or otherwise arising from any breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty in this Agreement shall be commenced on or before the second anniversary of the date on which the Party making the representation or warranty was notified by the Indemnified Party of the claim, so long as the Party was notified of the claim prior to the end of the time period specified in Section 10.6. Any applicable limitation period is extended or varied to the full extent permitted by Law to give effect to this Section 10.8.

10.9 Direct Claims

In the case of a Direct Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall have 60 days from receipt of a Claim Notice in respect thereof within which to make such investigation as the Indemnifying Party considers necessary or desirable. For the purpose of such investigation, the Indemnified Party shall make available to the Indemnifying Party the information relied upon by the Indemnified Party to substantiate its right to be indemnified under this Article 10, together with all such other information as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request. If the Parties fail to agree at or before the expiration of such 60 day period (or any mutually agreed upon extension thereof), the Indemnified Party shall be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to it.

10.10 Third Party Claims

(a) Rights of Indemnifying Party. In the event a Claim Notice is delivered with respect to a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party (in the case of a Seller Indemnified Party, the Sellers’ Representative on its behalf) shall have the right, at its expense, to participate in but not control the negotiation, settlement or defence of the Third Party Claim, which control shall rest at all times with the Indemnified Party, unless the Indemnifying Party (in the case of an Indemnifying Party that is a Seller, the Sellers’ Representative on its behalf):

(i) irrevocably and unconditionally acknowledges in writing complete responsibility for, and agrees to indemnify the Indemnified Party in respect of all Damages relating to, the Third Party Claim; and

(ii) furnishes evidence to the Indemnified Party whenever requested by the Indemnified Party, which is satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, acting reasonably, of the Indemnifying Party’s financial ability to indemnify the Indemnified Party;

in which case the Indemnifying Party (or the Sellers’ Representative, as applicable) may assume such control at its expense through counsel of its choice; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnifying Party shall not be permitted to assume control of the negotiation, settlement or defence of the Third Party Claim if: (A) such Third Party Claim

-74-

seeks equitable relief against the Indemnified Party as a primary form of relief; (B) such Third Party Claim involves criminal liability; or (C) such Third Party Claim is by a current material customer or supplier of the Purchased Business, the Purchaser or its Affiliates, or (D) the Third Party Claims could reasonably result in Damages in excess of, the Indemnifying Party’s maximum remaining indemnification obligations under this Agreement.

(b) Respective Rights on Indemnifying Party’s Assumption of Control. If the Indemnifying Party (or, in the case of an Indemnifying Party that is a Seller, the Sellers’ Representative) elects to assume control as contemplated in Section 10.10(a), the Indemnifying Party shall reimburse the Indemnified Party for all of the Indemnified Party’s out-of-pocket expenses incurred as a result of such assumption. The Indemnified Party shall continue to have the right to participate in the negotiation, settlement or defence of such Third Party Claim and to retain counsel to act on its behalf, provided that the fees and disbursements of such counsel shall be paid by the Indemnified Party unless the Indemnifying Party (or the Sellers’ Representative, as applicable) consents to the retention of such counsel at its expense or unless the named parties to any action or proceeding include both the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party and a representation of both the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to the actual or potential differing interests between them (such as the availability of different defences), in which case the fees and disbursements of such counsel shall be paid by the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnified Party shall co-operate with the Indemnifying Party so as to permit the Indemnifying Party to conduct such negotiation, settlement and defence and for this purpose shall preserve all relevant documents in relation to the Third Party Claim, allow the Indemnifying Party access on reasonable notice to inspect and take copies of all such documents and require its personnel to provide such statements as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably require and to attend and give evidence at any trial or hearing in respect of the Third Party Claim.

(c) Lack of Reasonable Diligence. If, having elected to assume control as contemplated by Section 10.10(a), the Indemnifying Party thereafter fails to conduct the negotiation, settlement or defence of the relevant Third Party Claim with reasonable diligence, then the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to assume such control and the Indemnifying Party shall be bound by the results obtained by the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third Party Claim.

(d) Other Rights of Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party does not, or is not permitted to, assume control of the defence of any Third Party Claim pursuant to Section 10.10(a), the Indemnified Party shall have the exclusive right to contest, settle or pay the amount claimed and the Indemnifying Party shall be bound by the results obtained by the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third Party Claim. Whether or not the Indemnifying Party assumes control of the negotiation, settlement or defence of any Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall not settle any Third Party Claim without the written consent of the Indemnified Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

10.11 Calculation of Damages

For purposes of this Article 10, any breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty or Damages calculated in respect of such breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty shall be determined without regard to any materiality, Material Adverse Effect or other similar qualification contained in or otherwise applicable to such representation or warranty, except with respect to Section 4.33(d).

-75-

10.12 Insurance Policies and Tax Benefits and Detriments

Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, Damages of all Indemnified Parties shall be net of any insurance, or other prior or subsequent recoveries actually received (including under or pursuant to any insurance policy, indemnity, reimbursement agreement or Contract pursuant to which or under which any Indemnified Party is a party or has rights, but excluding any recoveries received under the R&W Insurance Policy on the basis that the Sellers are not liable for such amounts) by the Indemnified Parties in connection with the facts giving rise to the right of indemnification, but shall include an increase in insurance premiums. The amount of any Damages that an Indemnified Party will be entitled to recover will be (i) reduced by any net Tax benefits actually realized by such Indemnified Party in the year of the payment in respect of the Damages as a result of the deductibility of such payment, and (ii) increased by any net Tax detriment actually incurred by such Indemnified Party in the year of payment resulting from such Damages.

10.13 Mitigation

Each Indemnified Party shall use reasonable efforts to mitigate any claim or liability that such Indemnified Party asserts or is reasonably likely to assert under this Article 10. In the event that any Indemnified Party shall fail to make such reasonable efforts to mitigate any such claim or liability, then notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the Indemnifying Party shall not be required to indemnify the Indemnified Party for that portion of any Damages that the Indemnifying Party can demonstrate would have been avoided if the Indemnified Party had made such efforts.

10.14 No Double Recovery

No Indemnified Party shall be entitled to recover from any Indemnifying Party under this Article 10 or under any other agreement delivered pursuant to this Agreement, more than once in respect of the same Damages to the extent recovered (notwithstanding that such Damages may result from breaches of multiple provisions of this Agreement and/or other agreements delivered pursuant to this Agreement). For greater certainty, no Damages may be claimed under this Article 10 by any Indemnified Party to the extent such amounts are otherwise taken into account in calculating the Purchase Price in accordance with Article 3.

10.15 Agency for Non-Parties

Notwithstanding Section 11.12, each Party hereby accepts each indemnity in favour of each of its Indemnified Parties who are not Parties as agent and trustee of that Indemnified Party. Each Party may enforce an indemnity in favour of any of that Party’s Indemnified Parties on behalf of each such Indemnified Party.

10.16 Exclusive Remedy

Following the Time of Closing, a Party’s sole and exclusive remedy for any claim or cause of action it may have against any Party or, in the case of the Purchaser, the Sellers’ Representative in respect of this Agreement or any certificate or other document delivered pursuant to this Agreement, whether arising under or based upon any Law or otherwise, shall be limited to, as applicable:

(a) seeking an equitable remedy pursuant to Section 11.2;

-76-

(b) disputes under Section 3.6 (which disputes shall be resolved in accordance with dispute resolution mechanism set out therein); and

(c) the rights of the Party under this Article 10 and, in the case of the Purchaser, under the R&W Insurance Policy.

ARTICLE 11 MISCELLANEOUS

11.1 Sellers’ Representative; Power of Attorney.

(a) Appointment. By executing this Agreement, each Seller hereby appoints, as of the date of this Agreement XXX  XXX XXX together with XXX permitted successors, as the Sellers’ Representative, to act as its true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact to enter into any agreement or transaction contemplated by this Agreement and to: (i) give and receive notices and communications to or from Purchaser (on behalf of itself or any other Purchaser Indemnified Party) and/or the Escrow Agent relating to this Agreement or any other agreement contemplated hereby or any of the transactions and other matters contemplated hereby or thereby (except to the extent that Section 11.1 or 11.4 expressly contemplates that such notice or communication shall be given or received by the Sellers individually); (ii) authorize deliveries to Purchaser of cash from the Working Capital Escrow Amount or the Indemnity Escrow Amount in satisfaction of claims asserted by Purchaser (on behalf of itself or any other Purchaser Indemnified Party, including by not objecting to claims thereto) and authorize payments to the Escrow Agent in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement; (iii) object to any claims by Purchaser or any other Purchaser Indemnified Party, including any claims to the Indemnity Escrow Amount or the Working Capital Escrow Amount; (iv) consent or agree to, negotiate, enter into settlements and compromises of, and agree to arbitration and comply with orders of courts and awards of arbitrators with respect to such claims; (v) assert, negotiate, enter into settlements and compromises of, and agree to arbitration and comply with orders of courts and awards of arbitrators with respect to, any other claim by any Purchaser Indemnified Party against any Seller or by any Seller against any Purchaser Indemnified Party or any dispute between any Purchaser Indemnified Party and any Seller, in each case relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby; (vi) amend this Agreement or any other agreement contemplated hereby (in accordance with the terms of the applicable agreement); and (vii) take all actions necessary or appropriate in the judgment of the Sellers’ Representative for the accomplishment of the foregoing, in each case without having to seek or obtain the consent of any Seller or consider its specific circumstances. No bond shall be required of the Sellers’ Representative, and the Sellers’ Representative shall receive no compensation for XXX services. Notices or communications to or from the Sellers’ Representative shall constitute notice to or from each Seller.

(b) Acceptance. XXX  XXX XXX   hereby accepts XXX appointment as the Sellers’ Representative.

(c) Purchaser Reliance. Each Seller hereby authorizes Purchaser and its Affiliates to rely upon the agency created under Section 11.1(a) and releases Purchaser and its Affiliates from any and all liability to such Seller of whatever nature arising out of or relating to such agency, to the same extent as though any act committed or omitted by the Seller pursuant to such agency had been committed or omitted by such Seller.

-77-

(d) Resignation; Replacement. On thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the Sellers and Purchaser, the Sellers’ Representative may resign its appointment. Prior to the effective date of such resignation, the Sellers shall designate in writing a replacement Sellers’ Representative who shall possess the same rights and obligations as the then existing Sellers’ Representative. In addition, the Person serving as the Sellers’ Representative may be replaced from time to time by the Sellers upon not less than ten (10) days’ prior written notice to Purchaser. In the event of the Sellers’ Representative’s death or disability, within ten (10) Business Days, the Sellers shall designate in writing a replacement Sellers’ Representative who shall possess the same rights and obligations as the then prior Sellers’ Representative. Promptly upon any designation of a replacement Sellers’ Representative, the Sellers shall cause written notice of such designation of the replacement Sellers’ Representative to be delivered to Purchaser and each Seller, along with all contact and notice information for such replacement Sellers’ Representative.

(e) No Liability. The Sellers’ Representative shall not be liable to any Seller for any act done or omitted under this Agreement or any agreement contemplated hereby while acting in good faith and any act done or omitted pursuant to the advice of counsel shall be conclusive evidence of such good faith. Each Seller, jointly and severally, shall indemnify the Sellers’ Representative and hold XXX harmless against any loss, liability or expense incurred without gross negligence or bad faith on the part of the Sellers’ Representative and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of XXX duties hereunder or under agreements contemplated hereby. To the extent that any distributions of the Working Capital Escrow Amount or Indemnity Escrow Amount are being made to the Sellers pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement, the Sellers’ Representative may receive reimbursement from the Sellers directly out of any such distributions that are being made to the Sellers for any and all expenses, charges and liabilities, including attorneys’ fees, reasonably incurred by the Sellers’ Representative in the performance or discharge of XXX rights and obligations under this Agreement; provided, however, that neither of Purchaser or the Purchased Entity shall have any liability with respect to such items.

(f) Notice. Any notice or communication given or received by, and any decision, action, failure to act within a designated period of time, agreement, consent, settlement, resolution or instruction of, the Sellers’ Representative shall constitute a notice or communication to or by, or a decision, action, failure to act within a designated period of time, agreement, consent, settlement, resolution or instruction of all sellers, and shall be final, binding and conclusive upon each Seller; and each Purchaser Indemnified Party and the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any such notice, communication, decision, action, failure to act within a designated period of time, agreement, consent, settlement, resolution or instruction as being a notice or communication to or by, or a decision, action, failure to act within a designated period of time, agreement, consent, settlement, resolution or instruction of, each and every such Seller. Each Purchaser Indemnified Party and the Escrow Agent is hereby relieved from any liability to any Person for any acts done by them in accordance with any such notice, communication, decision, action, failure to act within a designated period of time, agreement, consent, settlement, resolution or instruction of the Sellers’ Representative.

(g) Role of the Sellers’ Representative. Without limiting the generality or effect of Section 11.1(a), any claims or disputes between or among any Purchaser Indemnified Party, the Sellers’ Representative and/or any one or more Sellers relating to this Agreement or any other agreement contemplated hereby or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall in the case of any claim or dispute asserted by or against or involving any such Seller (other than any claim against or dispute with the Sellers’ Representative), be asserted or otherwise addressed

-78-

solely by the Sellers’ Representative on behalf of such Seller (and not by such Seller acting on XXX own behalf).

11.2 Equitable Remedies

The Parties agree that irreparable damage, for which monetary damages (even if available) would not be an adequate remedy, shall occur in the event that the Parties hereto do not perform the provisions of this Agreement (including failing to take such actions as are required of them hereunder to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby) in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breach such provisions. Accordingly, the Parties acknowledge and agree that the Parties shall be entitled as a matter of right to apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for relief by way of an injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at Law or in equity. Each of the Parties agrees that it shall not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and/or other equitable relief on any basis, including the basis that any other Party has an adequate remedy at Law or that any award of an injunction, specific performance and/or other equitable relief is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at Law or in equity. Any Party seeking: (i) an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement; (ii) to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement; and/or (iii) other equitable relief, shall not be required to show proof of actual damages or to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such remedy.

The Purchaser shall, and shall cause the Purchased Entity to, refrain from, directly or indirectly, asserting any claim or demand, or commencing, instituting or causing to be commenced any legal proceeding, of any kind against a Seller Releasee based upon any matter released pursuant to this Section 11.3(a).

-79-

setoffs, counterclaims, actions and causes of action of whatever kind or nature, whether known or unknown, which any of the Seller Releasors have, might have or might assert now or in the future, against the Purchaser, the Purchased Entity and their respective successors, assigns, officers, directors, managers, partners and employees or any of their respective heirs or executors (in each case in their capacity as such) (each, a “Purchaser Releasee”), arising out of, based upon or resulting from any Contract, transaction, event, circumstance, action, failure to act or occurrence of any sort or type, whether known or unknown, and which occurred, existed or was taken or permitted at or prior to the Closing; provided, however, that nothing contained in this Section 11.3(b) shall release, waive, discharge, relinquish or otherwise affect the express rights or obligations of any party to the extent arising out of this Agreement, any of the agreements, covenants, instruments or transactions contemplated herein. The Sellers, the Sellers’ Representative, and their respective Affiliates shall refrain from, directly or indirectly, asserting any claim or demand, or commencing, instituting or causing to be commenced any legal proceeding, of any kind against a Purchaser Releasee based upon any matter released pursuant to this Section 11.3(b).

11.5 Amendments and Waivers

No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be binding on either Party unless consented to in writing by such Party. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall constitute a waiver of any other provision, nor shall any waiver of any provision of this Agreement constitute a continuing waiver unless otherwise expressly provided. No waiver shall be inferred from or implied by any failure to act or delay in acting by a Party in respect of any default, breach or non-observance or by anything done or omitted to be done by the other Party. The waiver by a Party of any default, breach or non-compliance under this Agreement will not operate as a waiver of that Party’s rights under this Agreement in respect of any continuing or subsequent default, breach or non-observance (whether of the same or any other nature).

11.6 Assignment

No Party may assign any of its rights or benefits under this Agreement, or delegate any of its duties or obligations, except with the prior written consent of the other Party; provided, however, that the Purchaser may assign or transfer all or any part of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to any one or more of its Affiliates, provided that no such assignment or transfer shall relieve the Purchaser of its obligations under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the Purchaser’s rights in the preceding sentence shall include the right to designate that any one or more of its Affiliates purchase any portion of the Purchased Assets, assume any portion of the Assumed Liabilities, and advance consideration in respect thereof, and the Sellers shall

-81-

execute such instruments (including such instruments contemplated by Section 8.2(b)) as may be necessary to give effect to such assignments and allocations.

11.7 Successors and Assigns

This Agreement shall enure to the benefit of and shall be binding on and enforceable by and against the Parties and, where the context so permits, their respective successors and permitted assigns.

11.8 Fees and Expenses

11.9 Consultation

Prior to issuance of the initial press release announcing the transactions contemplated hereby, the Purchaser shall consult with the Sellers’ Representative in good faith with respect to the contents thereof, it being understood that the Sellers’ and Sellers’ Representative consent is not required in connection with any public disseminations pertaining to the transactions contemplated hereby made by the Purchaser, including in connection with such public filings required to be made by the Purchaser pursuant to applicable Law.

11.10 Further Assurances

Each of the Parties shall, at all times after the Closing Date and upon any reasonable request of the other, promptly do, execute, deliver or cause to be done, executed and delivered, at the expense of the requesting Party, all further acts, documents and things as may be required or necessary for the purposes of giving effect to this Agreement, including such other instruments of sale, transfer, conveyance, assignment, confirmation, certificates and other instruments as may be reasonably requested in order to more effectively transfer, convey and assign the Purchased Assets and to effectuate the transactions contemplated herein.

11.11 Counterparts

This Agreement and all documents contemplated by or delivered under or in connection with this Agreement may be executed and delivered in any number of counterparts, with the same effect as if all parties had signed and delivered the same document, and all counterparts shall together constitute one and the same original document.

11.12 No Third Party Beneficiaries

Except as provided in Sections 6.12 (D&O Indemnification and Insurance), 10.15 (Agency for Non-Parties), and 11.3 (Release) (i) no Person that is not a Party shall be entitled to the benefit of any provisions of this Agreement or have any rights hereunder, and (ii) no Person that is not a Party shall be entitled to rely on the provisions of this Agreement in any action, suit, proceeding, hearing or other forum.

(b) If within 18 months following Closing, any Party discovers that any right, title or interest in any asset used in connection with the Purchased Business (a “Wrong Pocket Asset”) that was meant to be transferred to the Purchaser pursuant to the terms of this Agreement (including, for certainty, any  XXX XXX XXX XXX XXX XXX and 90 Days Account Receivable) was not transferred to the Purchaser as contemplated by this Agreement, then (i) the applicable Seller shall transfer, as promptly as reasonably practicable, such Wrong Pocket Asset to the Purchaser for no additional consideration and at Sellers’ expense; and (ii) the Seller shall hold such right, title and interest in and to the Wrong Pocket Asset in trust for the Purchaser until such time as the transfer is completed.
