3.6. Subsidiaries. As of the date hereof, the Company has no Subsidiaries other than those listed in Schedule 3.6 hereto. The Company owns, directly or indirectly, all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of or all other equity interests in each of the Company’s Subsidiaries, free and clear of all Liens, and all of such shares or equity interests are duly authorized and validly issued and are fully paid, nonassessable and free of preemptive rights.

The closing of any transfer pursuant to this Section 10.5(a) shall occur in accordance with the terms and provisions of the offer and this Agreement.

(b) Any proposed transfer by Investor Group not consummated within the time periods set forth in this Section 10.5 shall again be subject to this Section 10.5 and shall require compliance by Investor Group with the procedures described in this Section 10.5. The

exercise or non-exercise of the rights of the Company under this Section 10.5 with respect to any proposed transfer shall not adversely affect its rights with respect to subsequent transfers by Investor Group under this Section 10.5.

Thereafter, in the event that any Replacement Director previously nominated and elected in accordance with this Section 11.1(b) is unable or unwilling to continue to serve as a member of the Board, Investor shall be entitled to designate another Replacement Director in accordance with this Section 11.1(b).

Notwithstanding anything in this Section 12 to the contrary, in the event of any breach of a representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation by any Party that results from intentional misrepresentation or willful misconduct or constitutes fraud, by or on behalf of (x) Investor or PSS (including any intentional misrepresentation, willful misconduct or fraudulent act committed by any Affiliate, officer, director, employee or agent of Investor in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) or (y) the Company (including any intentional misrepresentation, willful misconduct or fraudulent act committed by any Affiliate, officer, director, employee or agent of the Company or any willful misconduct on the part of any of them in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement), then (a) such representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation will survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and will continue in full force and effect for the period of the applicable statute of limitations without regard to any Survival Date, (b) the limitations set forth in this Section 12 shall not apply to any Loss that the Company Indemnified Parties or Investor Indemnified Parties may suffer, sustain or become subject to, as a result of, arising out of,

relating to or in connection with any such breach, and (c) none of such Losses shall be subject to or shall count towards the satisfaction of the Threshold or the Company Threshold, as applicable, or the Cap.

12.5. Notice and Defense of Third-Party Claims.

(a) If a Party seeks indemnification under this Section 12 with respect to any Proceeding brought against it by a third party (a “Third-Party Claim”), such party (the “Indemnified Party”) shall promptly give written notice to the other party (the “Indemnifying Party”) after receiving written notice of such Third-Party Claim, describing the Third-Party Claim, the amount thereof (if known and quantifiable), and the basis thereof; provided that any failure to so notify or any delay in notifying the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its or his obligations hereunder except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure or delay. With respect to any Third-Party Claim which, if adversely determined, would entitle the Indemnified Party to indemnification pursuant to this Section 12, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled, at its sole cost and expense, (i) to participate in the defense of such Third-Party Claim giving rise to the Indemnified Party’s claim for indemnification or (ii) at its option (subject to the limitations set forth below), to assume control of such defense and appoint lead counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume control of such defense if the Third-Party Claim which the Indemnifying Party seeks to assume control (A) seeks non-monetary relief, (B) involves criminal or quasi-criminal allegations, (C) involves a claim which, if adversely, determined, would be reasonably expected to establish a precedent, custom or practice adverse to the continuing business interests or prospects of the Indemnified Party, (D) seeks Losses in excess of the Cap or (E) involves a claim that, in the good faith judgment of the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party failed or is failing to vigorously prosecute or defend (each of the foregoing, an “Exception Claim”).

(b) In the event that (i) the Indemnifying Party fails to elect to assume control of the defense of any Third-Party Claim in the manner set forth in Section 12.5(a) or such Third-Party Claim is or at any time becomes an Exception Claim, the Indemnified Party may defend against, and consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to, the Third-Party Claim in any manner it may deem appropriate (and the Indemnified Party need not consult with, or obtain any consent from, any Indemnifying Party in connection therewith).

(c) If the Indemnifying Party is controlling the defense of any Third-Party Claim in accordance with Section 12.5(a), (i) the Indemnified Party shall nonetheless have the right to participate in the defense of such Third-Party Claim giving rise to the Indemnified Party’s claim for indemnification at the Indemnifying Party’s sole cost and expense, (ii) the Indemnifying Party will not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to or cease to defend such Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be withheld unreasonably); provided that the Indemnified Party shall have no obligation of any kind to consent to the entrance of any judgment or into any settlement unless such judgment or settlement (A) is for only money damages, the full amount of which shall be paid by the Indemnifying Party, (B) includes, as a condition thereof, an express, unconditional release of the Indemnified Party from any liability or obligation with respect to such Third-Party Claim and (C) would be reasonably expected , in the

good faith judgment of the Indemnified Party, to establish a precedent, custom or practice materially adverse to the continuing business interests or prospects of the Indemnified Party.

(d) Irrespective of which Party controls the defense of any Third-Party Claim, the other Parties will, and will cause any non-party Affiliate to, cooperate with the controlling party in such defense and make available to the controlling party all witnesses, pertinent records, materials and information in such non-controlling party’s possession or under its control relating thereto as is reasonably required by the controlling party. The Parties agree that all communications between any party and counsel responsible for or participating in the defense of any Third-Party Claim shall, to the extent possible, be made so as to preserve any applicable attorney-client or work-product privilege.

12.6. Notice of Non-Third-Party Claims. If an Indemnified Party seeks indemnification under this Section 12 with respect to any matter which does not involve a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall give written notice to the Indemnifying Party promptly after discovering the liability, obligation or facts giving rise to such claim for indemnification, describing the nature of the claim in reasonable detail, the amount thereof (if known and quantifiable), and the basis thereof; provided that any failure to so notify or any delay in notifying the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its or his obligations hereunder except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure or delay. If the Indemnifying Party does not notify the Indemnified Party in writing within thirty (30) days from its receipt of the indemnity notice that the Indemnifying Party disputes such claim, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have accepted and agreed to indemnify the Indemnified Party from and against the entirety of any Losses described in the indemnity notice. If the Indemnifying Party has delivered an indemnity dispute notice to the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall proceed in good faith to negotiate a resolution to such dispute. If the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party cannot resolve such dispute within thirty (30) days after delivery of the indemnity dispute notice, such dispute shall be resolved by litigation in an appropriate court of competent jurisdiction/ in accordance with Section 14.2.

12.7. Determination of Loss Amount. The right to indemnification and the payment of Losses of any Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section 12, or the availability of any other remedies contemplated hereby or otherwise available to the Indemnified Parties at law or in equity, based upon any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation of Investor contained in or made pursuant to this Agreement will not be affected by any investigation made by or on behalf of any Indemnified Party or its Affiliates, or the knowledge of any such Indemnified Party’s (or its Affiliates’) officers, directors, stockholders, managers, members, partners, employees or agents, with respect to the accuracy or inaccuracy of, or compliance or non-compliance with, any such representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation at any time prior to or following the Party’s entrance into this Agreement.

12.8. Manner of Payment. Any indemnification payment pursuant to this Section 12 shall be effected by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Investor or the Company, as the case may be, within three (3) Business Days after the determination of the amount thereof, whether pursuant to a final judgment, settlement or agreement among the Parties.

12.9. Exclusive Remedy. The Parties hereby agree that, from and after the Closing Date, the indemnification provisions set forth in this Section 12 are the exclusive provisions in this Agreement with respect to the liability of the Company or Investor for the breach, inaccuracy or nonfulfillment of any representation or warranty or any pre-Closing covenants, agreements or other pre-Closing obligations contained in this Agreement and the sole remedy of the Company Indemnified Parties and Investor Indemnified Parties for any claims for breach of representation or warranty or pre-Closing covenants, agreements or other pre-Closing obligations arising out of this Agreement or any Law or legal theory applicable thereto; provided that nothing herein shall preclude any Party from seeking any remedy based upon fraud, intentional misrepresentation or willful or criminal misconduct by any other Party (including any fraud, intentional misrepresentation or willful or criminal misconduct committed by any officer, director, employee or agent of Investor or the Company) in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

13. Publicity. Within three (3) Business Days of the date hereof, the Company shall issue a press release substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto. No other written public release or written announcement concerning the purchase of the Shares contemplated hereby shall be issued by any Party without the prior written consent of the other Parties (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), except as such release or announcement may be required by Law or the rules or regulations of any securities exchange, in which case the Party required to make the release or announcement shall, if such release or announcement contains information materially different from the press release set forth on Exhibit B, and to the extent reasonably practicable, allow the other Parties reasonable time to comment on such release or announcement in advance of such issuance. The provisions of this Section 13 shall not restrict the ability of a Party to summarize or describe the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in any prospectus or similar offering document so long as the other Parties are provided a reasonable opportunity to review such disclosure in advance.
