(h) all liabilities owed to any broker or finder in connection with the Transactions based upon arrangements made by or on behalf of Seller or xXXxX*s.

Section 1.5 Purchase Price; Purchase Price Adjustment.

(a) In consideration for the sale by Seller of the Purchased Assets to Buyer and Buyer’s assumption of the Assumed Liabilities, at the Closing, Buyer shall pay to Seller cash in an amount equal to $800,000 plus the Estimated Closing Book Value (the “Purchase Price”), by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account designated in writing by Seller. Seller shall apply, and xXXxX*s shall cause Seller to apply, the Purchase Price (less certain transaction costs and expenses of Seller and xXXxX*s not to exceed Four Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($450,000)) to repay outstanding Revolving Loans (as defined in the Credit Agreement, which term is defined in the GE Consent and Lien Release Letter) in such amount. The Purchase Price shall be subject to adjustment as set forth in this Section 1.5.

(b) Within 45 days after the Closing Date, Seller will prepare, or cause to be prepared, and deliver to Buyer an unaudited statement (the “Seller’s Closing Book Value

Statement”), together with appropriate supporting documentation, which shall set forth Seller’s calculation of Book Value as of the Closing (“Closing Book Value”). Seller’s Closing Book Value Statement shall be prepared in accordance with Seller’s accounting principles, methods and policies applied on a consistent basis for prior years (provided, that, Seller’s Closing Book Value Statement and Final Book Value shall contain the Negative Reserve). At Seller’s request, Buyer (i) shall reasonably cooperate and assist, and shall cause its representatives to assist, Seller and its representatives in the preparation of Seller’s Closing Book Value Statement and (ii) shall provide Seller and its representatives with any information reasonably requested by them (to the extent in Buyer’s possession). An example calculation of Book Value as if the Closing Date were May 4, 2013 is set forth as Schedule I attached hereto.

(c) Upon receipt from Seller, Buyer shall have 30 days to review Seller’s Closing Book Value Statement (the “Review Period”). At Buyer’s request, Seller (i) shall reasonably cooperate and assist, and shall cause its representatives to assist, Buyer and its representatives in the review of Seller’s Closing Book Value Statement and (ii) shall provide Buyer and its representatives with any information reasonably requested by them (to the extent in Seller’s possession). If Buyer disagrees with Seller’s computation of Closing Book Value, Buyer shall, on or prior to the last day of the Review Period, deliver a notice to Seller (a “Notice of Objection”), which sets forth its objections to Seller’s calculation of Closing Book Value. A Notice of Objection shall specify those items or amounts with which Buyer disagrees, together with a written explanation of the reasons for disagreement with each such item or amount. To the extent not set forth in a Notice of Objection delivered during the Review Period, Buyer shall be deemed to have agreed with Seller’s calculation of all other items and amounts contained in Seller’s Closing Book Value Statement and neither Party may thereafter dispute any item or amount not set forth in the Notice of Objection. Unless Buyer delivers a Notice of Objection to Seller within the Review Period, Buyer shall be deemed to have accepted Seller’s calculation of Closing Book Value and Seller’s Closing Book Value Statement shall be final, conclusive and binding.

(d) If Buyer delivers a Notice of Objection to Seller within the Review Period, Buyer and Seller shall, during the 20 days following such delivery or any mutually agreed extension thereof, use their commercially reasonable efforts to reach agreement on the disputed items and amounts in order to determine the amount of the Closing Book Value. If at the end of such period or any mutually agreed extension thereof, Buyer and Seller are unable to resolve their disagreements, they shall jointly retain and refer their disagreements to a nationally or regionally recognized registered public independent accounting firm mutually acceptable to Buyer and Seller (the “Independent Expert”). The Parties shall instruct the Independent Expert promptly to review this Section 1.5 (including Seller’s accounting principles, methods and policies applied on a consistent basis for prior years) and to determine solely with respect to the disputed items and amounts so submitted whether and to what extent, if any, the Closing Book Value set forth in Seller’s Closing Book Value Statement requires adjustment. The Independent Expert shall base its determination solely on written submissions by Buyer and Seller and not on an independent review. Buyer and Seller shall make available to the Independent Expert all relevant books and records and other items reasonably requested by the Independent Expert. As promptly as practicable, but in no event later than 30 days after its retention, the Independent Expert shall deliver to Buyer and Seller a report which sets forth its resolution of the disputed items and amounts and its calculation of Closing Book Value;

provided that the Independent Expert may not assign a value to any item greater than the greatest value for such item claimed by either Party or less than the smallest value for such item claimed by either Party. The decision of the Independent Expert shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties. The costs and expenses of the Independent Expert shall be borne fifty percent (50%) by Buyer and fifty percent (50%) by Seller.

(e) For purposes of this Agreement, “Final Book Value” means the Closing Book Value (x) as shown in Seller’s Closing Book Value Statement delivered by Seller to Buyer if Buyer accepts Seller’s Closing Book Value Statement or has not timely delivered a Notice of Objection within the Review Period in accordance with Section 1.5(c) or (y) if a Notice of Objection is so timely delivered, (A) as agreed by Buyer and Seller pursuant to Section 1.5(d) or (B) in the absence of such agreement, as shown in the Independent Expert’s report delivered pursuant to Section 1.5(d). Within three (3) Business Days after the Final Book Value has been finally determined pursuant to this Section 1.5:

(i) if the Final Book Value is less than the Estimated Closing Book Value, Seller and xXXxX*s shall, jointly and severally, pay (as an adjustment to the Purchase Price) to Buyer, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, an amount equal to (A) the Estimated Closing Book Value minus (B) the Final Book Value. To the extent Seller and xXXxX*s do not make any payments required by the immediately preceding sentence within fifteen (15) Business Days following its due date as finally determined in accordance with this Section 1.5, then Buyer shall have the right, at its option, upon prior written notice to Seller and xXXxX*s, to set off any such amounts that are due and owing to Buyer under this Section 1.5(e)(i) against any payments due and owing to xXXxX*s under the Transition Services Agreement; provided, that Buyer is not then in breach or default of its payment obligations under the Transition Services Agreement (after giving effect to any notice and cure period); and

(ii) if the Final Book Value is greater than the Estimated Closing Book Value, Buyer shall pay (as an adjustment to the Purchase Price) to Seller, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, an amount equal to (A) the Final Book Value minus (B) the Estimated Closing Book Value.

(f) Any payments actually made to any Party under this Section 1.5 shall not be subject to or included in any calculations made in respect of Article V to the extent that such payments would be duplicative.

Section 1.6 Closing Transactions.

(a) Closing. The consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Closing”) shall take place simultaneously with the execution of this Agreement at the offices of Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx LLP, The Chrysler Building, 000 Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx. The date on which the Closing occurs is referred to in this Agreement as the “Closing Date”.

(b) Actions and Deliveries by Seller. At the Closing, Seller and/or xXXxX*s, as applicable, shall deliver to Buyer:

(vi) a good standing certificate of Seller from the Secretary of State of Delaware dated not earlier than twenty (20) days prior to the Closing Date;

(vii) evidence, satisfactory to Buyer, of General Electric Capital Corporation’s (y) consent to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Ancillary Agreements and (z) release of its Encumbrance on the Purchased Assets and authorization to file all requisite termination statements (whether with the Secretary of State of Delaware or the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office) in connection therewith (collectively, the “GE Consent and Lien Release Letter”); and

(viii) a non-foreign affidavit dated as of the Closing Date that complies with Section 1445 of the Code (the “FIRPTA Affidavit”).

(i) the Purchase Price specified in Section 1.5(a) above;

(ii) the Assignment and Assumption Agreement dated the Closing Date and duly executed by Buyer; and

(iii) any valid resale tax certificates in all applicable jurisdictions for any Inventory being acquired by Buyer for resale.

(d) Other Closing Matters. At the Closing:

(i) a transition services agreement between xXXxX*s and Buyer substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D shall have been executed and delivered by all necessary parties (the “Transition Services Agreement”); and

(ii) an assignment agreement between xXXxX*s, Alloy, LLC (as successor to Alloy, Inc.) and Buyer, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit E, relating solely to the portions of the MSA pertaining to the Business following the Closing, shall have been executed and delivered by all necessary parties (the “MSA Assignment Agreement”).

Section 1.7 Allocations.

As soon as reasonably practicable following the Closing, Buyer shall deliver to Seller a draft allocation statement setting forth Buyer’s allocation of the Purchase Price and those Assumed Liabilities that are liabilities for United States federal income tax purposes. If Seller does not provide Buyer with notice of an objection to such draft allocation statement within 20 days of receipt, such draft shall become final (subject to any subsequent revisions required by this Section 1.7). If Seller does timely deliver a notice of objection, Buyer and Seller shall, during the 20 days following such delivery or any mutually agreed extension thereof, use their commercially reasonable efforts to reach agreement on the disputed items and amounts in order to determine the allocation statement. If at the end of such period or any mutually agreed extension thereof, Buyer and Seller are unable to resolve their disagreements, they shall jointly retain and refer their disagreements to the Independent Expert. The Parties shall instruct the Independent Expert to promptly resolve any dispute regarding the draft allocations statement. The decision of the Independent Expert shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties and the costs of the Independent Expert shall be borne fifty percent (50%) by Buyer and fifty percent (50%) by Seller. Each of Seller and Buyer agrees to complete IRS Form 8594 and any other forms or reports required to be filed pursuant to Section 1060 of the Code or any comparable provision of Law consistently with such allocation and, if requested by the other Party hereto, to furnish such Party with a copy of such Form prepared in draft form no less than 45 days prior to the filing due date of such Form. Neither Seller nor Buyer shall file any Return or take a position with any taxing authority or in connection with any Tax-related Action or audit that is inconsistent with this Section 1.7. If the Purchase Price is adjusted pursuant to Section 1.5, any allocation that has been agreed to by the Parties shall be revised appropriately; provided, that any such revisions shall be made pursuant to Section 1060 of the Code and any other applicable Tax Laws. Buyer and Seller agree to treat any payment made pursuant to the indemnification provisions of this Agreement as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for Tax Purposes.

Section 1.8 Non-Assignable Assets.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, to the extent that the assignment of any contracts or the transfer of any properties or assets requires the consent of any other Person or Governmental Authority and such consent has not been obtained, this Agreement shall not constitute an agreement to assign or transfer any such contracts, properties or assets or any claim, right or benefit arising thereunder or resulting therefrom if any such attempted assignment or transfer would constitute a breach or default thereunder or otherwise adversely affect in any material manner the rights of Buyer thereunder. If consent to the assignment or transfer of any such contracts, properties or assets is not obtained, or if an attempted assignment

or transfer thereof in the absence of such a consent would be ineffective or would adversely affect in any material manner the rights of Buyer thereunder, then, at Seller’s sole cost and expense, Seller shall cooperate with Buyer in any reasonable arrangement designed to provide to Buyer the benefits under such contracts, properties or assets; provided that such cooperation by Seller shall not cause Seller to violate any terms of any such contract or any applicable Law or require Seller or any of its Affiliates to commence, defend or participate in any litigation; provided, further, that Buyer shall not assume (and Seller shall retain) any liabilities arising under such assets or contracts unless Buyer has received all of the benefits that gave rise to such liability (including, without limitation, in the case of any of the Assumed Contracts, enforcement of such Assumed Contract for the account of Buyer of any and all rights of Seller against any other party to such Assumed Contract arising out of the breach, non-fulfillment or cancellation thereof by such other party).

affecting creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

Section 2.3 No Conflict; Required Filings and Consents.

The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements by Seller do not, and the consummation by Seller of the Transactions will not, (a) conflict with or violate the organizational or governing documents of Seller, (b) conflict with or violate, in any material respect, any Law or Order applicable to Seller or by which Seller or any of its properties is bound, (c) result in a material breach of or constitute a material default (or an event that with notice or lapse of time or both would become a material default) under, or give rise to any right of termination, acceleration or cancellation under, or result in the creation of an Encumbrance on any of the Purchased Assets pursuant to, any note, bond, mortgage, indenture, contract, agreement, lease, license or other instrument or obligation to which Seller is a party or by which Seller or any of its properties is bound, or (d) require Seller to obtain any consent, approval, authorization or permit of, or to make any material filing with or notification to, any Governmental Authority, except (i) as set forth in Section 2.3 of the Seller Disclosure Schedule, or (ii) for any filings required pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Exchange Act”).

participant in a defined contribution plan sponsored by Seller or one of its Affiliates that is intended to be “qualified” within the meaning of Section 401(a) of the Code (the “Seller 401(k) Plan”) to elect to transfer by direct rollover to the Buyer 401(k) Plan, each such Transferred Employee’s account balance when distributed from the Seller 401(k) Plan, including any outstanding participant loans from the Seller 401(k) Plan, to the Buyer 401(k) Plan. Prior to the completion of any such direct rollover of outstanding participant loans, Seller shall not place any such participant loans in default during the period of the Transferred Employees employment with Buyer or its Affiliates for so long as such participant remains current on all principal and interest payments due thereunder and, during such period, Buyer and Seller shall provide reasonable assistance to each other in order to facilitate the remission of such loan payments to the Seller 401(k) Plan via payroll deduction from Buyer’s payroll. Seller shall cause the account balance of each Transferred Employee under the Seller 401(k) Plan to become fully vested and non-forfeitable as of the Closing Date.

(h) From and after the Closing until such time as Buyer or its Affiliates establishes a group health plan covering the Transferred Employees, which Buyer shall, or shall cause its Affiliates to establish on behalf of the Transferred Employees no later than 90 days after the Closing, Seller shall allow each of the Transferred Employees (and their qualified beneficiaries) to receive COBRA continuation coverage under Seller’s group health plan at the same active employee rates charged to the Transferred Employees for corresponding coverage immediately prior to Closing and Buyer shall promptly reimburse Seller for the difference between Seller’s full COBRA coverage rate and the active employee rate for each Transferred Employee to whom Seller provides such continuation coverage for the duration of such coverage.

(g) Nothing in this Section 4.7, express or implied, shall confer upon any Employee, or legal representative or beneficiary thereof, any rights or remedies, including any right to employment or continued employment for any specified period, or compensation or benefits of any nature or kind whatsoever under this Agreement.

Section 4.8 Restrictive Covenants.

(a) Commencing on the date hereof and ending on the two (2) year anniversary of the date hereof (the “Restricted Period”), Seller and xXXxX*s will not, and will cause each of its Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly, solicit for employment or hire any of the Transferred Employees, unless (i) such employee’s employment with the Business has been terminated by Buyer (and provided that Seller, xXXxX*s or any of its Affiliates did not engage in any solicitation of such employee prior to the termination of such employee’s employment with Buyer) or (ii) such employee has voluntarily resigned his or her employment with Buyer and at least three (3) months have passed before any such solicitation or hiring by Seller, xXXxX*s or any of its Affiliates; provided, however, that this Agreement shall in no way restrict any of the restricted parties from hiring any person in response to a general advertisement for employment to the public in a newspaper of general circulation or by other similar means.

(b) During the Restricted Period, Seller and xXXxX*s shall not, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause their Affiliates not to, except as explicitly permitted under any other written agreement duly signed by Buyer, on the one hand, and Seller and/or xXXxX*s, on the other hand (including the Transition Services Agreement), (i) use for any

purpose, or (ii) disclose to any Person (other than in performance of any of its obligations under this Agreement), confidential information of the Business; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit such restricted party from using or disclosing any such confidential information of the Business which: (x) at the time of its use or disclosure is through no fault of Seller, xXXxX*s or their respective Affiliates part of the public domain by publication or otherwise; (y) is required to be disclosed by Seller or xXXxX*s pursuant to applicable Law, in which case, Seller or xXXxX*s, as applicable, shall give written notice to Buyer prior to any such disclosure; or (z) is made available from a third party without breach of any confidentiality obligations owed by such third party to Buyer or its Affiliates. For purposes hereof, “confidential information of the Business” shall mean all trade secrets, reports, financial information, business plans, customer lists and supplier lists of Seller; provided, however, if there is any overlap between customers or suppliers contained in the customer or supplier lists of Seller and customers or suppliers contained in the separate customer or supplier list of xXXxX*s, the term “confidential information of the Business” shall not be deemed to include any information with respect to any such overlapping customers or suppliers.

(c) The parties agree that the provisions and restrictions contained in this Section 4.8 are necessary to protect the legitimate continuing interests of Buyer, and that any violation or breach of these provisions will result in irreparable injury to Buyer for which monetary damages or any other remedy at law would be inadequate and that, in addition to any relief at law which may be available to Buyer for such violation or breach and regardless of any other provision contained in this Agreement, Buyer shall be entitled to seek temporary and permanent injunctive relief (without the necessity of having to prove actual damages therefrom) and such other equitable relief as a court may grant.

Section 4.9 Change of Name.

Within twenty (20) Business Days after the Closing Date, Seller shall, and xXXxX*s shall cause Seller to, change its name to a new name bearing no resemblance to its present name and not containing the word “Alloy” or any name similar thereto.

Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 5.4, Buyer agrees that it shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Seller, its officers, directors, Affiliates, partners, members, managers, employees, agents and other representatives (collectively, the “Seller Indemnified Parties”) from and against any Liabilities that any of the Seller Indemnified Parties suffered, sustained or incurred or became subject to arising out of, based upon or in connection with (a) any inaccuracy or breach of any representation or warranty of Buyer contained in Article III of this Agreement, (b) any breach of any covenant or agreement of Buyer contained in this Agreement, (c) any of the Assumed Liabilities or (d) any failure by Buyer to pay to Seller the amount, if any, required pursuant to Section 1.5(e)(ii) of this Agreement.

Section 5.3 Procedures for Indemnification for Third Party Claims.

For purposes of this Article V, any Party entitled to be indemnified under Article V is referred to herein as an “Indemnified Party,” and any Party obligated to provide indemnification under Article V is referred to herein as an “Indemnifying Party.” The obligations and liabilities of the Parties under this Article V with respect to, relating to or arising out of claims of third parties (individually, a “Third Party Claim” and, collectively, the “Third Party Claims”) shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:

(a) The Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party prompt written notice of any Third Party Claim, and the Indemnifying Party may, at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, undertake the defense of that claim by representatives chosen by it, unless (i) the Indemnifying Parties shall not have taken any action to defend such Third Party Claim within such twenty (20) day period or (ii) such Third Party Claim seeks an order, injunction or other equitable reflect against the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Parties has the right to assume, and timely assumes, the defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party will have the right to participate in such defense through counsel of its own choice and at its own expense (except as otherwise provided in this Section 5.3). Any such notice of a Third Party Claim shall identify with reasonable specificity the basis for the Third Party Claim (and the nature of the misrepresentation, breach of warranty, breach of covenant, breach of agreement or other claim to which such item is related), the facts giving rise to the Third Party Claim and the amount of the Third Party Claim (or, if such amount is not yet known, a reasonable estimate of the amount of the Third Party Claim). The Indemnified Party shall promptly provide to the Indemnifying Party copies of all papers served with respect to such

Third Party Claim and all other relevant documents and records in its possession. Failure of an Indemnified Party to give prompt notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligation to indemnify, except to the extent that the failure to so notify actually and materially prejudices the Indemnifying Party’s ability to defend such claim against a third party.

(b) If the Indemnifying Party, within twenty (20) days after notice from the Indemnified Party of any such Third Party Claim, notifies the Indemnified Party in writing of its election not to, or fails to, or otherwise does not, in accordance with this Section 5.3, have the right to, assume the defense thereof in accordance with Section 5.3(a) of this Agreement, the Indemnified Party shall have the right (but not the obligation), at the expense of the Indemnifying Parties, to undertake the defense of the Third Party Claim. Any failure on the part of the Indemnifying Party to notify the Indemnified Party within the time period provided above regarding its election shall be deemed an election by the Indemnifying Party not to assume and control the defense of the Third Party Claim.

(c) Anything in this Section 5.3 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Indemnifying Party shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, settle or compromise any Third Party Claim or consent to the entry of judgment, unless such settlement, compromise or judgment (i) includes a full and unconditional release of the Indemnified Parties from and all liability in respect of the Third Party Claim, (ii) does not subject the Indemnified Parties to any injunctive relief or other equitable remedy and (iii) does not include a statement or admission of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of the Indemnified Parties. The Indemnified Party shall not, without the prior written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of the Indemnifying Party, settle, compromise or pay any Third Party Claim or consent to the entry of judgment with respect thereto.

(d) To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, pay and hold harmless set forth in this Article V may be unenforceable with respect to any Liabilities because it violates any Law or public policy, the Indemnifying Parties shall contribute the maximum portion which it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable Law, to the payment and satisfaction of all such Liabilities incurred by the Indemnified Party(ies) or any of them with respect to such Liabilities.

Section 5.4 Indemnification Limitations.

(a) Deductibles. No indemnification under Section 5.1(a) of this Agreement shall be required unless the aggregate amount of Liabilities incurred under Section 5.1(a) exceeds $40,000 (the “Threshold Amount”), in which case Seller’s and xXXxX*s indemnification obligations under Section 5.1(a) shall only apply to those Liabilities in excess of the Threshold Amount. The limitations set forth in this Section 5.4(a) do not apply to Liabilities relating to or arising from any breach or inaccuracy of any Fundamental Representation or to a claim based on fraud or intentional misrepresentation.

(b) Cap. The cumulative indemnification obligations of Seller and xXXxX*s under Section 5.1(a) shall in no event exceed (i) twenty percent (20%) of the Purchase Price in the case of representations and warranties that do not constitute Fundamental Representations, (ii) fifty percent (50%) of the Purchase Price in the case of all Fundamental Representations (other than Section 2.8(a) of this Agreement) and (iii) one hundred percent (100%) of the

Purchase Price in the case of the Fundamental Representations consisting of Section 2.8(a) of this Agreement. The limitations set forth in this Section 5.4(b) shall not apply to a claim based on fraud or intentional misrepresentation.

(c) Calculation of Liabilities. For purposes of determining the amount of any Liabilities under this Article V but not for purposes of determining whether a breach has occurred, each representation and warranty contained in this Agreement shall be read without regard to any materiality or Material Adverse Effect qualifier contained therein.

(d) Time Limits On Indemnification. No claim on account of a breach or inaccuracy of a representation or warranty shall be made after the expiration of the survival periods referred to in Section 6.1 of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a written claim or written notice is given under this Article V with respect to any representation or warranty prior to the expiration of its survival period, the claim with respect to such representation or warranty shall continue until such claim is finally resolved.

(e) Net Recovery. The amount which an Indemnified Party shall be entitled to receive from an Indemnifying Party under this Article V with respect to any indemnifiable Liability shall be net of any insurance proceeds actually received by an Indemnified Party with respect to such claim, net of any increased premiums and reasonable costs of pursuing an insurance claim.

(f) Damage Limitation. An Indemnified Party shall not be entitled to indemnification for consequential, punitive, indirect, incidental, speculative or special damages or lost profits, except (i) to the extent actually paid to a third party in respect of a Third Party Claim or (ii) in the event of fraud.

Section 5.5 Setoff.

Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, following a final nonappealable determination in accordance with this Agreement that any amounts are ultimately due and payable to Buyer by virtue of the indemnification obligations of Seller and xXXxX*s set forth in Section 5.1, Buyer may, if neither Seller nor xXXxX*s has paid such amounts to Buyer within 15 Business Days following receipt of written notice from Buyer to Seller and xXXxX*s of such determination, set off such owed amounts against payments due and owing to xXXxX*s by Buyer under the Transition Services Agreement; provided, that Buyer is not then in breach or default of any of its payment obligations under the Transition Services Agreement (after giving effect to any notice and cure period).

Section 5.6 Exclusive Remedy.

The remedies provided in this Article V shall be the sole and exclusive remedies of the Parties with respect to claims relating to the subject matter of this Agreement (including the sale of the Purchased Assets, assumption of the Assumed Liabilities and the transactions contemplated hereby), except for (a) claims of, or causes of action arising from, (i) fraud or (ii) a breach by Guarantor, or failure by Guarantor to comply with, Section 6.14, and (b) remedies of specific performance or other injunctive or equitable relief pursuant to Section 6.9 (subject to the provisions thereof).

(b) The execution and delivery by xXXxX*s of this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements to which it is a party and the consummation by xXXxX*s of the Transactions have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of xXXxX*s. This Agreement and the other Ancillary Agreements to which xXXxX*s is a party have been duly executed and delivered by xXXxX*s and, assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery hereof by the other parties thereto (excluding Seller), constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of xXXxX*s, enforceable against xXXxX*s in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

(c) The execution and delivery by xXXxX*s of this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements to which it is a party do not, and the consummation by xXXxX*s of the Transactions will not, (i) conflict with or violate the organizational or governing documents of by xXXxX*s, (ii) conflict with or violate, in any material respect, any Law or Order applicable to by xXXxX*s or by which by xXXxX*s or any of its properties is bound, (iii) result in a material breach of or constitute a material default (or an event that with notice or lapse of time or both would become a material default) under, or give rise to any right of termination, acceleration or cancellation under, or result in the creation of an Encumbrance on any of the Purchased Assets pursuant to, any note, bond, mortgage, indenture, contract, agreement, lease, license or other instrument or

Section 6.14 Guaranty.

(a) Each Guarantor, on a several but not joint basis, hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees as principal obligor, and not merely as surety, to Seller and xXXxX*s fifty percent (50%) of the Guaranteed Obligations. The foregoing obligation of each Guarantor with respect to his portion of the Guaranteed Obligations constitutes a continuing guaranty of payment and performance, and not of collection, and is and shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances, including all circumstances that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge of a surety or guarantor, except as otherwise set forth in this Section 6.14. The obligation of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be discharged, impaired or otherwise affected by the failure of Seller or xXXxX*s to assert any claim or demand against Buyer or to enforce any remedy under this Agreement or the Transition Services Agreement. Neither Seller nor xXXxX*s shall seek to enforce any of the TSA Guaranteed Obligations (as defined in the Transition Services Agreement) that have been validly set-off by Buyer in compliance with the terms of Section 1.5(e)(i) or Section 5.5 of this Agreement. Furthermore, neither Seller nor xXXxX*s shall seek to enforce any of the TSA Guaranteed Obligations against a Guarantor until five (5) days following delivery of a Breach Notice (as defined in the Transition Services Agreement) to Buyer in accordance with the terms of the Transition Services Agreement. With respect to any Guaranteed Obligation that Seller or xXXxX*s seeks to enforce, each Guarantor shall only be responsible for fifty percent (50%) of such particular Guaranteed Obligation. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 6.14 to the contrary, each Guarantor shall be entitled to raise any defenses to his obligations with respect to his portion of the Guaranteed Obligations that are available to Buyer including, without limitation, that such Guaranteed Obligations have been paid, have (in the case of the TSA Guaranteed Obligations) been validly set-off in compliance with the terms of Section 1.5(e)(i) or Section 5.5 of this Agreement or are not due and owing under the express terms of the Transition Services Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, no Guarantor is responsible for TSA Guaranteed Obligations (whether under this Agreement or the Transition Services Agreement) in excess of Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) (and, for the further avoidance of doubt, the TSA Guaranteed Obligations referenced in this Section 6.14 are duplicative of, and not in addition to, the TSA Guaranteed Obligations set forth in the Transition Services Agreement). The guaranty set forth in this Section 6.14 applicable to (i) the TSA Guaranteed Obligations shall terminate and be of no further force and effect following the later of (A) termination or expiration of the Transition Services Agreement and (B) payment in full of all payment obligations due and owing under the Transition Services Agreement to xXXxX*s and (ii) the Guaranteed Obligations (other than the TSA Guaranteed Obligations) shall terminate and be of no further force and effect following payment in full thereof by Buyer or any Guarantor.

(b) Each Guarantor, severally but not jointly, represents and warrants as to himself that:

(i) Such Guarantor has the capacity to enter into Section 6.14 of this Agreement and to carry out his obligations hereunder;

(ii) The execution and delivery by such Guarantor of Section 6.14 of this Agreement has been duly authorized by all necessary action on the part of such Guarantor. Section 6.14 of this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by such Guarantor and, assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery hereof by the other Parties (excluding Buyer), constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Guarantor, enforceable against such Guarantor in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law); and

(iii) The execution and delivery of Section 6.14 of this Agreement by such Guarantor and the performance of such Guarantor’s agreements pursuant to this Section 6.14 will not (a) conflict with or violate, in any material respect, any Law or Order applicable to such Guarantor or by which such Guarantor or any of his properties is bound, (b) result in a material breach of or constitute a material default (or an event that with notice or lapse of time or both would become a material default) under, or give rise to any right of termination, acceleration or cancellation under, any note, bond, mortgage, indenture, contract, agreement, lease, license or other instrument or obligation to which such Guarantor is a party or by which such Guarantor or any of his properties is bound, or (c) require such Guarantor to obtain any consent, approval, authorization or permit of, or to make any material filing with or notification to, any Governmental Authority.
