2.5 Consent of Third Parties.

To the extent that any such consent (each a “Third-Party Consent”) in respect of, or a novation of, a Non-Assignable Contract shall not have been obtained on or before the Closing Date, Purchaser may elect to proceed with the Closing, in which case, the Seller shall continue to use reasonable efforts to obtain any such consent or novation after the Closing Date until such time as it shall have been obtained, and the Seller shall cooperate with Purchaser in any economically feasible arrangement to provide that Purchaser shall receive the interest of the Seller in the benefits and obligations under such Non-Assignable Contract, including performance by the Seller as agent if economically feasible, provided that Purchaser shall undertake to pay, perform or satisfy the corresponding liabilities or obligations under the terms of such Non-Assignable Contract to the extent that Purchaser would have been responsible therefor if such consent or approval had been obtained. To the extent Seller requests that Purchaser assist Seller in seeking to obtain any Third Party Consent after the Closing Date, then Seller shall pay and discharge, and shall indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser and its Affiliates from and against, any and all reasonable out of pocket costs of seeking to obtain or obtaining any such Third Party Consent provided that Seller approves of such costs in writing and in advance. Nothing contained in this Section 2.5 or elsewhere in this Agreement shall be deemed a waiver by Purchaser of its right to have received on the Closing Date an effective assignment of all of the Assets or of the covenant of the Seller to obtain all such Third-Party Consents, nor shall this Section 2.5 or any other provision of this Agreement be deemed to constitute an agreement to exclude from the Assets any contracts as to which such consent may be necessary.

Purchaser will rely upon its own (and its consultants’) inspections, investigations and analyses of the Acquired Assets, Assumed Liabilities and the WyldFyre Business, and, with the exception of only those express representations and warranties of Seller set forth herein, upon which Purchaser shall be entitled to rely, Purchaser will not rely in any way upon any representations, statements, agreements, warranties, studies, reports, descriptions, guidelines or other information or material furnished by Sellers or its representatives, whether oral or written, express or implied, of any nature whatsoever regarding any such matters it being expressly acknowledged that Seller has not verified the accuracy or completeness of any such information or the qualification of the persons preparing such information. Purchaser acknowledges that Seller has not made any representations or warranties regarding the condition, sufficiency or suitability of the Acquired Assets or WyldFyre Business, except as expressly set forth in Section 3 hereof.

5. POST-CLOSING COVENANTS

Purchaser and Seller agree as follows with respect to the period following the Closing:

5.1 General. In case at any time after the Closing any further actions are necessary to carry out the purposes of this Agreement, each of the Parties will take such further actions (including the execution and delivery of such further instruments and documents) as the other Party reasonably may request, all at the sole cost and expense of the requesting Party (unless the requesting Party is entitled to indemnification therefor under Section 6 below).

5.2 Confidentiality. Except as set forth in Section 5.5, Seller agrees that for a period of two (2) years from the Closing Date, it will not (i) divulge any Confidential Information to third parties or (ii) use or permit to be used any Confidential Information for its own benefit. For this purpose, “Confidential Information” shall mean all information pertaining to the Acquired Assets that has been treated by Seller as being confidential, including without limitation, customer lists. “Confidential Information” shall not include any information that: (A) is now or subsequently becomes available to third parties who are not under a duty of confidentiality through no fault of Seller or (B) is released or approved for release by Purchaser without restriction.

Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph, Seller may disclose Confidential Information (i) to the extent required by a court of competent jurisdiction or other governmental authority or otherwise as required by applicable law, rule or regulation or (ii) on a “need-to-know” basis under an obligation of confidentiality to its legal counsel, accountants, banks and other financing sources and their advisors or (iii) in any legal proceedings disclosed in Section 3.8 of the Disclosure Schedules or that arise in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated herein and therein.

5.3 WyldFyre Employees. Purchaser agrees to offer employment to the WyldFyre Employees listed on Schedule 5.3 (the “Listed Employees”) effective as of the Closing Date. Any WyldFyre Employees not listed on Schedule 5.3 or any Listed Employees who do not accept such employment offer will remain the responsibility of Seller, subject to Seller’s existing employment policies (the “Retained Employees”). For a period of one (1) year from the Closing Date, Seller will not actively solicit for employment any WyldFyre Employees who accept Purchaser’s offer of employment. For the avoidance of doubt, Seller will not be deemed to have actively solicited any such employee if such employee approaches Seller for employment or responds to general solicitations of employment. In the event Purchaser hires as an employee, or retains as an independent contractor or otherwise the services of (for more than 100 hours), any of the Retained Employees during the one (1) year period following the Closing Date, then Purchaser hereby agrees to so notify Seller within thirty days and reimburse Seller for any and all severance benefits which Purchaser may have provided to any such Retained Employee. Purchaser hereby grants to Seller the right to audit upon ten days prior written notice, such of Purchaser’s payroll records (and payment records related to Purchaser’s independent contractors) as it may reasonably request in order to verify whether Purchaser has so employed or retained the services of any Retained Employee during the one year period flowing the Closing Date.

5.4 Hosting.

(a) Seller agrees that for a period of up to one hundred eighty (180) days following the Closing Date (the “Hosting Period”), it shall, at the request of Purchaser, continue to host all WyldFyre Business production applications as set forth on Disclosure Schedule 5.4(a)(i) (the “Applications”) at Seller’s Thousand Oaks, California data center, at service levels and with maintenance in a manner substantially similar to the hosting services Seller provided to the WyldFyre Business prior to the Closing Date, subject to the occurrence of extraordinary or force majeure events; provided, that such hosting services shall not include those shared services provided to the WyldFyre Business by Seller prior to the Closing Date and set forth on Disclosure Schedule 5.4(a)(ii) hereto. During such Hosting Period, Purchaser agrees that it shall not institute any enhancements or modifications to any Applications without the prior written consent of Seller, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. In addition, Seller shall provide Purchaser with reasonable migration assistance for the transfer of the Applications to such data center as shall be designated by Purchaser. During the Hosting Period, Purchaser hereby grants to Seller a non-exclusive, non-transferable, royalty-free license to operate and maintain the Applications to such extent as is reasonably necessary to permit Seller to host Applications as provided by this Section 5.4. Upon the termination of the Hosting Period, Seller hereby agrees to delete all copies of such Applications from its servers.

(b) Seller agrees that for a period of up to two (2) weeks following the Closing Date, it shall provide to Purchaser the services listed on Schedule 5.4(b) attached hereto. Purchaser agrees to reimburse Seller for the reasonable costs and expenses associated with such services and agrees to pay any invoices issued by Seller in connection therewith within ten (10) days of receipt thereof.

(c) Purchaser hereby agrees that so long as it receives data from Houston Realtors Information Service, Inc.

5.5 Reservation of Rights. Purchaser hereby acknowledges that (i) Seller possesses certain know-how regarding the WyldFyre Business Intellectual Property Rights (the “Know-How”) and (ii) Seller may be using certain portions of the code constituting WyldFyre Business Intellectual Property Rights in connection with Seller’s business operations (the “Embedded Code”) other than the WyldFyre Business. Seller represents that such Embedded Code does not in the aggregate constitute a substantial portion of the code of the WyldFyre Business Intellectual Property Rights being transferred hereunder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that Seller hereby retains the right after the Closing to (a) utilize the Know-How and (b) use, modify, alter, transfer and assign such Embedded Code and nothing set forth herein shall be deemed to limit or restrict Seller’s current or future operations (including without limitation its Xxxxxxx.xxx or Top Producer operations); provided, however, that (i) Seller hereby agrees that it shall not sell, license or transfer such portions of Embedded Code separate and apart from its other business operations in a manner substantially similar to the Intellectual Property Rights being transferred hereunder, and (ii) Seller hereby agrees that it shall not reconstitute such Embedded Code so as to replicate a substantial portion of the code constituting the WyldFyre Business Intellectual Property Rights being transferred hereunder.

5.6 Payments Received after Closing Date/AR Collection Assistance. To the extent Seller receives any payments, other than those payments received under this Agreement, relating to the operation of the WyldFyre Business after the Closing Date by Purchaser, Seller will promptly remit any such payments to Purchaser.

(iv) related to obligations stemming from employee benefit, vacation or retirement plans arising on or prior to the Closing Date; any liabilities arising on or prior to the Closing Date or as a result of the Closing for severance, bonuses or any other form of compensation to any employees, agents or independent contractors of the Seller related to the period on or prior to the Closing Date, whether or not employed by Purchaser after the Closing and whether or not arising or under any applicable employee law, benefit plan or other arrangement with respect thereto; except for such obligations as Purchaser may incur pursuant to Section 5.3 herein;

(v) related to any obligation or liability with respect to litigation arising with respect to the operation of the WyldFyre Business on or prior to the Closing Date, including without limitation the litigation described on Schedule 3.9 hereto; or

(vi) the ownership, use or operation of the Acquired Assets prior to the Closing Date.

No indemnification shall be payable to Purchaser under clause 6.2(a) until and after such losses aggregate One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000); however, in the event such losses exceed $100,000, then indemnification shall be made by Seller for the full amount of such losses, including the initial $100,000. Purchaser shall notify Seller promptly of any written actions, claims or demands against Purchaser of which Seller is responsible hereunder specifying the basis and amount thereof in reasonable detail.

(b) Notwithstanding anything contained elsewhere in this Agreement, Seller’s combined total aggregate liability for indemnification under Section 6.2(a) shall not exceed the Escrow Amount (except for a breach of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.5 or the litigation described on Schedule 3.9, which total aggregate liability of Seller shall not exceed the Purchase Price), and such indemnification under Section 6.2(a) of this Agreement shall constitute Purchaser’s sole and exclusive remedy in connection with any breach or nonperformance of any representation, warranty, covenant or other undertaking made by Seller under this Agreement, regardless of the theory of liability or recovery.

(c) Purchaser shall indemnify, defend and save Seller harmless from any actions, claims, losses, damages, demands or expense (including without limitation all court costs and reasonable attorney’s fees on account thereof) suffered or incurred by Seller, or its successors and assigns, proximately caused by:

(i) any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or other undertaking made by the Purchaser in this Agreement;

(ii) the ownership, use or operation of the Acquired Assets on or after the Closing Date; or

(iii) the failure by Purchaser to perform any obligation hereunder or pay when due any Assumed Liability.

Seller shall notify the Purchaser promptly of any written actions, claims or demands against Seller of which the Purchaser is responsible hereunder specifying the basis and amount thereof in reasonable detail.

(d) If any third party notifies any Party (the “Indemnified Party”) with respect to any matter (a “Third-Party Claim”) that may give rise to a claim for indemnification against the other Party (the “Indemnifying Party”) under this Section 6, then the Indemnified Party shall promptly (and in any event within 5 business days after receiving notice of the Third-Party Claim) notify the Indemnifying Party thereof in writing specifying the claimed basis and amount thereof in reasonable detail. Failure to so notify shall not be deemed a waiver of, or otherwise affect, the Indemnifying Party’s obligations unless the Indemnifying Party is materially harmed or prejudiced by such failure to notify.

The Indemnifying Party will have the right at any time to assume and thereafter conduct the defense of the Third-Party Claim with counsel of its choice; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party will not consent to the entry of any judgment on or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (not to be unreasonably withheld) unless the judgment or proposed settlement involves only the payment of money damages and does not impose an injunction or other equitable relief upon the Indemnified Party.

Unless and until the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of the Third-Party Claim as provided in above, however, the Indemnified Party may defend against the Third-Party Claim in any manner it may reasonably deem appropriate. In no event will the Indemnified Party consent to the entry of any judgment on or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (not to be unreasonably withheld).
