	If any of the conditions set forth in Section 7.1 have not been satisfied, the Purchaser may elect in writing to waive any such condition and proceed with the completion of the Transactions and, if any of the conditions set forth in Section 7.2 have not been satisfied, the Seller may elect in writing to waive any such condition and proceed with the completion of the Transactions. Any such waiver and election by the Purchaser or the Seller, as the case may be, will only serve as a waiver of that specific closing condition.
8.4 Dispute Resolution
	Any controversy, dispute, claim, question or difference between the Parties arising out of or relating to or in connection with, this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents (a “Dispute”) is to be resolved in accordance with the procedures set out in the following Sections 8.5 and 8.6 which are the exclusive procedures for the resolution of any Dispute between the Parties.

-30-

8.5 Efforts to Settle Disputes

	(a)	The Parties shall attempt in good faith to resolve any Dispute promptly by negotiation. However, at any time a Party may give the other Party written notice (the “Initial Notice”) of any Dispute not so resolved. Within fifteen (15) days after delivery of an Initial Notice, the recipient Party shall deliver to the other a written response. Both the Initial Notice and the response must include a statement of that Party’s position, a summary of arguments supporting that position, and the name and contact particulars of the Person who will represent that Party and of any other Person who will accompany the representative. Within thirty (30) days after delivery of the Initial Notice, the representatives of the Parties shall meet at mutually acceptable times and places, as often as they reasonably deem necessary, to attempt to resolve the Dispute.
	(b)	All negotiations pursuant to this Section 8.5 are confidential and are to be treated as compromise and settlement negotiations for purposes of applicable rules of evidence.
8.6 Litigation
	If the Dispute is not resolved by nonbinding means as provided in Section 8.5, either Party may initiate litigation upon ten (10) days prior written notice to the other Party; provided, however, that if one Party has requested the other to participate in a nonbinding procedure and the other Party has failed to participate, the requesting Party may initiate litigation before expiration of the above period.
8.7 Injunctive Relief
	Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, a Party may seek injunctive relief (whether as a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction or otherwise) or specific performance pending a decision of the court and Section 8.6 will not apply to any such action or proceeding.

 

Article 9

Indemnification and Remedies

9.1 Indemnification by the Seller: General Matters

	Subject to the limitations set out in this Article 9, the Seller shall indemnify the Purchaser from and against any loss or liability (the “Damages”, as further defined in Section 9.6), suffered by, imposed upon, or asserted against, the Purchaser as a result of, in respect of, connected with, or arising out of:
	(a)	any breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made by the Seller in this Agreement;
	(b)	any breach or failure by the Seller to perform or fulfill any covenant, condition or obligation of the Seller contained in this Agreement; or
	(c)	any claim by any Person for brokerage or finder’s fees, commissions or similar payments based upon any agreement or understanding made or alleged to have been made by such Person with the Seller (or any Person acting on its behalf) in connection with any of the Transactions.

-31-

9.2 Indemnification by the Purchaser

	The Purchaser shall indemnify the Seller from and against any Damages suffered by, imposed upon or asserted against the Seller as a result of, in respect of, connected with, or arising out of:
	(a)	any breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made by the Purchaser in this Agreement;
	(b)	any breach or failure by the Purchaser to perform or fulfill any covenant, condition or obligation of the Purchaser contained in this Agreement, or
	(c)	any claim by any Person for brokerage or finder’s fees, commissions or similar payments based upon any agreement or understanding made or alleged to have been made by such Person with the Purchaser (or any Person acting on its behalf) in connection with any of the Transactions.
9.3 Indemnification Procedure: Third Party Claims
	(a)	If any claim or proceeding is made or commenced by a third party (a “Third Party Claim”) against the Purchaser or the Seller, as the case may be (the “Indemnified Person”) in respect of which the Indemnified Person proposes to demand indemnification from the other Party (the “Indemnifying Party”), the Indemnified Person shall give notice to that effect together with particulars of the Third Party Claim to the Indemnifying Party with reasonable promptness. The failure to give, or delay in giving, such notice will not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations except and only to the extent of any prejudice caused to the Indemnifying Party by such failure or delay. From the time the Indemnified Person receives notice of the Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Person shall take all reasonable steps to protect its rights and the rights of the Indemnifying Party in respect of such Third Party Claim.
	(b)	The Indemnifying Party may, by notice to the Indemnified Person given not later than thirty (30) days after receipt of the notice described in Section 9.3(a), assume control of the defence, compromise or settlement of the Third Party Claim provided that:
		(i)	the Third Party Claim involves only money damages and does not seek any injunctive or other equitable relief;
		(ii)	if the named parties in the Third Party Claim include both the Indemnifying Party and an Indemnified Person, representation by the same counsel would, in the judgment of the Indemnified Person, still be appropriate notwithstanding any actual or potential differing interests between them; and
		(iii)	the Indemnifying Party has provided reasonable assurance to the Indemnified Person of its financial ability to defend the Third Party Claim.

-32-

	(c)	Upon assumption of control of a Third Party Claim by the Indemnifying Party:
		(i)	the Indemnifying Party shall actively and diligently proceed with the defence of the Third Party Claim at its sole cost and expense, retaining counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person; and
		(ii)	the Indemnifying Party shall keep the Indemnified Person fully advised with respect to the status of the Third Party Claim (including supplying copies of all relevant documents promptly as they become available) and shall arrange for its counsel to inform the Indemnified Person on a regular basis of the status of the Third Party Claim.
	(d)	The Indemnified Person may retain separate co-counsel at their sole cost and expense (without any right to claim indemnification for such costs and expenses), and may participate in, but shall have no right to control, the defence of the Third Party Claim, save for any admission of fault or liability, settlement or compromise as provided under paragraph (f) below.
	(e)	The Indemnified Person shall, at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, cooperate with the Indemnifying Party and make available to the Indemnifying Party all relevant information in their possession or under their control (provided that it does not cause either of them to breach any confidentiality obligations) and shall take such other steps as are, in the reasonable opinion of counsel for the Indemnifying Party, necessary to enable the Indemnifying Party to conduct such defence.
	(f)	The Indemnifying Party shall not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any compromise or settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim unless consented to in writing by the Indemnified Person (which consent may not be unreasonably or arbitrarily withheld, conditioned or delayed). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:
		(i)	no admission of fault or liability may be made by or on behalf of the Purchaser without the prior written consent of the Purchaser; and
		(ii)	no admission of fault or liability may be made by or on behalf of the Seller without the prior written consent of the Seller.
	(g)	If:
		(i)	the Indemnifying Party fails to give the Indemnified Person the notice required in Section 9.3(b) or any of the other conditions in Section 9.3(b) are not satisfied; or

 

-33-

		(ii)	the Indemnifying Party breaches any of its other obligations under this Section 9.3 in any material respect,
		the Indemnified Person may, upon notice to the Indemnifying Party, assume control of the defence, compromise or settlement of the Third Party Claim and retain counsel as, in its opinion, may appear advisable, the whole at the Indemnifying Party’s sole cost and expense. Any settlement or other final determination of the Third Party Claim will be binding upon the Indemnifying Party subject to the right of the Indemnifying Party to dispute that an indemnification is required pursuant to this Agreement. The Indemnifying Party shall, at its sole cost and expense, cooperate fully with the Indemnified Person, make available to such Indemnified Person all relevant information in its possession or under its control (provided that it does not cause it to breach any confidentiality obligations) and take such other steps as are, in the reasonable opinion of counsel for the Indemnified Person, necessary to enable the Indemnified Person to conduct the defence. The Indemnifying Party shall reimburse the Indemnified Person promptly and periodically for the costs of defending against the Third Party Claim (including legal fees and expenses), and shall remain responsible for any Damages the Indemnified Person may suffer resulting from, arising out of, or relating to, the Third Party Claim to the fullest extent provided in this Article 9.
9.4 Survival of Representations and Warranties
	(a)	Except as otherwise provided in this Section 9.4, the representations and warranties of the Seller and the Purchaser contained in this Agreement will survive Closing and continue in full force and effect for a period of one (1) year after Closing, except:
		(i)	in the case of Fraud, in which case the representations and warranties will survive Closing and continue in full force and effect indefinitely; or
		(ii)	to the extent that, during such period, the Indemnified Person has given notice to the Indemnifying Party of a claim in respect of a representation or warranty, in which case such representation or warranty will survive Closing and continue in full force and effect until the final determination of such claim.
9.5 Duty to Mitigate
	(a)	Nothing in this Agreement limits the general obligation at law of an Indemnified Person to mitigate any Damages which it may suffer or incur by reason of the breach by an Indemnifying Party of its representations, warranties, covenants and other obligations in this Agreement.
	(b)	An Indemnified Person’s right to recover Damages from an Indemnifying Party under this Article 9 will be reduced by any amounts recovered or recoverable by the Indemnified Person under insurance policies, indemnities, reimbursement arrangements or similar agreements. If any such recoveries are received by the Indemnified Person after a payment has been made by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Person with respect thereto, then the Indemnified Person shall promptly reimburse the Indemnifying Party for the amount so received or recovered.
9.6 Limitations on Liability
	(a)	The Parties agree that a “Damage” shall mean any certain and direct loss, damage or liability in the meaning of “préjudice direct et certain” under French law and shall be limited to the actual loss, damage or liability effectively suffered (perte éprouvée), with the exclusion of:

 

-34-

		(i)	consequential, indirect or special damages;
		(ii)	loss of profits (manque à gagner), lost opportunities (perte de chance) or diminution in value; or
		(iii)	punitive damages (dommages-intérêts punitifs).
	(b)	The obligation of the Party from whom indemnification is sought by the other Party for Damages is subject to the following:
		(i)	in no event shall the aggregate liability (for indemnification or otherwise) of the Party from whom indemnification is sought with respect to Damages under this Article 9 exceed an amount of ten million euros (€10,000,000); and
		(ii)	the limitations on liability set out in Section 9.6(b)(i) shall not apply to any indemnity claims made by a Party in respect of Fraud of the other Party.
9.7 Rights Limited
	No Party shall be liable for any Damages resulting from or relating to any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty in this Agreement if the Person seeking indemnification for such Damages had knowledge of such inaccuracy or breach before Closing.
9.8 Procedures for Indemnification – Direct Claims
	A claim for indemnification for any matter not involving a Third Party Claim must be asserted by notice (setting out in reasonable detail the factual basis for the claim and the amount of potential Damages arising from it) to the Party from whom indemnification is sought within the periods specified in Section 9.4 and will be subject, at all times, to the provisions of Sections 9.5, 9.6 and 9.9, mutatis mutandis.
9.9 Exceptions to Indemnification
	The Purchaser is not entitled to any Damages against the Seller nor does the Seller have any liability in connection withany breach or inaccuracy of any representation, warranty or any failure to comply with any obligation, condition or covenant of the Seller in this Agreement, occurring during the Closing Period and which breach, inaccuracy or non-fulfillment was a direct result of written instructions received from the Purchaser (or any of its representatives) and complied with by the Corporation or the Seller.
9.10 Rights and Remedies
	The rights and remedies that a Party may have against the other Party for a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or obligation under this Agreement are exclusively governed by this Agreement. To the extent permitted by applicable Law, any further claims and remedies (other than claims for specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedy which do not include claims for monetary damages), irrespective of the nature, amount or legal basis, are hereby expressly waived and excluded.
