(b) Except as expressly permitted by Section 6.3(e) or Section 6.6(b)(ii), Seller’s board of directors shall not, directly or indirectly, (i) (A) withdraw (or amend or modify in a manner adverse to Purchaser) or publicly propose to withdraw (or amend or modify in a manner adverse to Purchaser), the Seller Board Recommendation, (B) recommend that its stockholders, adopt or approve, or propose publicly to recommend that its stockholders, adopt or approve, any Takeover Proposal or (C) fail to recommend against acceptance of any tender offer or exchange offer for Seller’s capital stock that constitutes a Takeover Proposal within ten Business Days after the commencement of such offer or (ii) approve or recommend, or publicly propose to approve or recommend, or allow Seller to execute or enter into, any letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, agreement in principle, merger agreement, acquisition agreement, option agreement, joint venture agreement, partnership agreement or other similar agreement, arrangement or understanding (other than a confidentiality agreement referred to in Section 6.3(a)) (A) constituting or that could reasonably be expected to lead to any Takeover Proposal or (B) requiring Seller to abandon, terminate or fail to consummate the Transactions.

(c) Seller will promptly (and in any event by 5:00pm, San Francisco time, on the first Business Day after the day on which Seller became aware of the same) notify Purchaser of the existence of any proposal, discussion, negotiation or inquiry received by Seller with respect to any Takeover Proposal, and Seller will promptly (and in any event by 5:00pm, San Francisco time, on the first Business Day after the day on which Seller became aware of the same) communicate to Purchaser the material terms and conditions of any proposal, discussion, negotiation or inquiry which it receives and of any material modifications thereof, including the identity of the Person making such proposal, discussion, negotiation or inquiry and copies of all written documentation relating to such, or a summary of the principal terms to the extent that it is not made in writing. Seller will keep Purchaser reasonably informed of the status and details of any such Takeover Proposal. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that all such information provided pursuant to this Section 6.3(c) shall be “Information” for purposes of the Confidentiality Agreement.

(d) Upon execution of this Agreement, Seller shall, and it shall cause its Representatives to, immediately cease any existing activities, discussions or negotiations with any parties conducted heretofore with respect to any Takeover Proposal.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if the Seller’s board of directors receives a Superior Proposal prior to the receipt of the Seller Stockholder Approval that was made in circumstances not involving a breach of Section 6.3, Seller’s board of directors (i) may withdraw or modify, in a manner adverse to Purchaser, the Seller Board Recommendation if the board of directors of Seller determines in good faith, based on such matters as it deems relevant following consultation with its financial advisors and its outside counsel, that the failure to take such action would be reasonably likely to constitute a breach by the board of directors of Seller of its fiduciary duties under Delaware law, and (ii) may, in response to such Superior Proposal and within 48 hours after the expiration of the three Business Day period described below, enter into a Contract with respect to such Superior Proposal if Seller is permitted to terminate this Agreement on such date pursuant to the terms of Section 10.1(g) and, concurrently with its entering into such Contract shall have terminated this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.1(g) but only after the third Business Day following Purchaser’s receipt of written notice from Seller advising Purchaser that the Seller’s board of directors is prepared to enter into a Contract with respect to such Superior Proposal (which notice shall include the most current versions of such Contract) and terminate this Agreement, if during such three Business Day period, Seller and its Representatives shall have provided Purchaser with a reasonable opportunity to provide to Seller a binding written offer by Purchaser to amend the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and shall have considered in good faith any such binding, written offer of Purchaser to amend the terms and conditions of this Agreement delivered by Purchaser to Seller.

6.4 Access to Information.

(a) From the date hereof until the Closing, upon reasonable notice Seller shall (i) permit Purchaser and its authorized Representatives to have reasonable access to the offices, properties and books and records of Seller related to the Business, (ii) furnish to the Representatives of Purchaser such additional financial and operating data and other information regarding the Business (or copies thereof) as Purchaser may from time to time reasonably request and (iii) provide Purchaser with reasonable access to Xxxxx Xxxxxxx, Xxx Xxxxxxxx and such other key Seller employees involved with the Business pursuant to a process, and at appropriate times, as may be mutually agreed to by Purchaser and Seller; provided, however, that any such access or furnishing of information shall be conducted during normal business hours, under the supervision of Seller’s personnel and in such a manner as not to interfere with the normal operations of the Business. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Seller shall not be required to disclose any information to Purchaser if such disclosure would (i) jeopardize any attorney-client or other legal privilege or (ii) contravene any applicable Legal Requirements, fiduciary duty or binding Contract entered into prior to the date hereof.

(b) In order to facilitate the resolution of any claims made against or incurred by Seller with respect to the Business, for a period of three years after the Closing, Purchaser shall (i) retain the Business Records relating to periods prior to the Closing, and (ii) upon reasonable notice, afford the Representatives of Seller reasonable access (including the right to make, at Seller’s expense, photocopies), during normal business hours, under the supervision of the Purchaser’s personnel and in such a manner as not to interfere with the normal operations of the Business.

6.5 Confidentiality.

(a) Each of the Parties hereby agrees that this Agreement, the exhibits and schedules hereto, and any information obtained in any investigation pursuant to the negotiation and execution of this

Agreement or the effectuation of the Transactions, shall be governed by the terms of the letter agreement dated as of June 10, 2008 (the “Confidentiality Agreement”) between Seller and Purchaser. The Parties agree that the obligations of Purchaser under the Confidentiality Agreement shall terminate with respect to Information (as defined in the Confidentiality Agreement) relating exclusively to the Business as of the Closing; provided, however, that the Confidentiality Agreement shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with its terms with respect to any Information not relating exclusively to the Business. If this Agreement is, for any reason, terminated prior to the Closing, the Confidentiality Agreement shall nonetheless continue in full force and effect in accordance with its terms.

(b) Nothing provided to Purchaser pursuant to Section 6.4(a) shall in any way amend or diminish Purchaser’s obligations under the Confidentiality Agreement. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that any Confidential Information (as such term is defined in the Confidentiality Agreement) provided to Purchaser pursuant to Section 6.4(a) or otherwise by Seller or any Representative thereof shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the Confidentiality Agreement.

6.6 Seller Stockholder Approval.

(a) Proxy Statement.

(i) Subject to the reasonable cooperation of Purchaser, as promptly as reasonably practicable following the execution of this Agreement, Seller shall prepare and file with the SEC the Proxy Statement and shall use reasonable best efforts to respond to any comments of the SEC or its staff and to cause the Proxy Statement to be mailed to Seller’s stockholders as promptly as reasonably practicable after responding to all such comments to the satisfaction of the SEC. Seller shall notify Purchaser promptly of the receipt of any comments from the SEC or its staff and of any request by the SEC or its staff for amendments or supplements to the Proxy Statement or for additional information and will supply Purchaser with copies of all correspondence between Seller or any of its Representatives, on the one hand, and the SEC, on the other hand, with respect to the Proxy Statement or the Transactions. Seller shall (i) provide Purchaser and its counsel a reasonable opportunity to review Seller’s proposed response to such comments, (ii) include in Seller’s response to such comments any input reasonably proposed by Purchaser and its counsel, and (iii) provide Purchaser and its counsel a reasonable opportunity to participate in any discussions or meetings with the SEC. If at any time prior to the Seller Stockholders’ Meeting there shall occur any event that is required to be set forth in an amendment or supplement to the Proxy Statement, Seller shall as promptly as practicable prepare and mail to its stockholders such an amendment or supplement. Purchaser shall cooperate with Seller in the preparation of the Proxy Statement or any amendment or supplement thereto. Purchaser and its counsel shall be given a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on the Proxy Statement, and any amendment or supplement thereto, before such document (or any amendment or supplement thereto) is filed with the SEC, and Seller shall include in such document any comments reasonably proposed by Purchaser and its counsel.

(ii) None of the information to be supplied by Seller or Purchaser for inclusion or incorporation by reference in (i) the Proxy Statement will, on the date the Proxy Statement is first mailed to Seller’s stockholders and at the time of the Seller Stockholders’ Meeting, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading or (ii) any other document filed with any other regulatory agency in connection herewith will, at the time such document is filed, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Seller shall cause the Proxy Statement to comply as to form in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder.

(b) Stockholder Meeting.

(i) As promptly as reasonably practicable following the execution of this Agreement, Seller shall take all action necessary under applicable legal requirements to call, give notice of and hold a meeting of the holders of Seller’s capital stock to vote on a proposal to adopt this Agreement (the “Seller Stockholders’ Meeting”). The Seller Stockholders’ Meeting shall be held (on a date selected by Seller in consultation with Purchaser) as promptly as practicable after the mailing of the Proxy Statement. Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that all proxies solicited in connection with the Seller Stockholders’ Meeting are solicited in compliance with applicable legal requirements. Subject to the provisions of Section 6.6(b)(ii), the Proxy Statement shall include the Seller Board Recommendation.

(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, at any time prior to the receipt of the Seller Stockholder Approval, Seller’s board of directors, or any committee thereof, may withdraw or modify, in a manner adverse to Purchaser, the Seller Board Recommendation if Seller’s board of directors determines in good faith (after receiving advice of outside counsel) that the failure to do so would reasonably likely constitute a breach by the Seller’s board of directors of its fiduciary duties to Seller’s stockholders under Delaware Law.

6.7 Regulatory and Other Approvals; Novations and Consents.

(a) Authorizations and Consents. As promptly as practicable after the date hereof, Seller and Purchaser shall make all necessary or advisable filings with Governmental Authorities, and use reasonable best efforts to obtain all permits, approvals, authorizations and consents of all third parties, required to consummate the Transactions. Seller and Purchaser shall cooperate in good faith and use reasonable best efforts to furnish promptly to each other all information that is not otherwise available to the other Party and that such Party may reasonably request in connection with any such filing.

(b) Novation and Assignment of Contracts.

(i) Seller shall seek the transfer (by novation or assignment) of all Assumed Contracts from Seller to Purchaser, effective as of or as soon as reasonably practicable after the Closing Date. For each Assumed Contract, where consent of the other party or parties is required for assignment, Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the consent and approval of the other party or parties to that Assumed Contract to novate Seller’s obligations and rights to Purchaser, so that Purchaser is substituted for Seller under the Assumed Contract and Seller is relieved of all further Liabilities and rights. Failing approval for novation, Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all required consents and approvals for assignment of the Assumed Contract from Seller to Purchaser. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to (x) require Seller to seek a novation or consent for assignment of a Contract which does not require such consent, or (y) constitute an assignment or novation of any Assumed Contract if the attempted assignment or novation thereof without consent of the other party thereto would constitute a breach thereof or would be ineffective with respect to any party to such Assumed Contract.

(ii) In the event any Assumed Contract cannot be transferred in accordance with Section 6.7(b)(i), then as of the Closing, this Agreement, to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements and the terms of the Assumed Contract, shall constitute full and equitable assignment by Seller to Purchaser of all of Seller’s right, title and interest in and to, and assumption by Purchaser of all

of Seller’s Liabilities (other than the Excluded Liabilities) under, such Assumed Contract, and Purchaser shall be deemed Seller’s agent for purpose of completing, fulfilling and discharging all of Seller’s liabilities thereunder. The Parties shall take all reasonably necessary steps and actions to provide Purchaser with the benefits of such Assumed Contract, and to relieve Seller of the performance and other obligations thereunder, including entry into subcontracts for the performance thereof.

(c) Alternative to Assignment. In the event Seller shall be unable to make the transfer of one or more Assumed Contracts as described in Section 6.7(b), or if such attempted assignment would give rise to any right of termination on the part of the other party to such Assumed Contract, or would otherwise adversely affect the rights of Purchaser under such Assumed Contract, or would not assign all of Seller’s rights thereunder at the Closing and provided Purchaser waives Section 8.3(e) (if applicable) with respect thereto, from and after the Closing, Seller and Purchaser shall continue to cooperate and use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all consents and approvals required to provide Purchaser with all such rights. To the extent that any such consents and waivers are not obtained, or until the impediments to such assignment are resolved, Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) provide to Purchaser, at the request of Purchaser, the benefits of any such Assumed Contract to the extent related to the Business, (ii) cooperate in any lawful arrangement designed to provide such benefits to Purchaser and (iii) enforce, at the request of and for the account of Purchaser, any rights of Seller arising from any such Assumed Contract against any third Person (including any Governmental Authority) including the right to elect to terminate in accordance with the terms thereof upon the advice of Purchaser. To the extent that Purchaser is provided the benefits of any Assumed Contract referred to herein (whether from Seller or otherwise), Purchaser shall perform on behalf of Seller and for the benefit of any third Person (including any Governmental Authority) the obligations of Seller thereunder or in connection therewith. The parties agree to the additional matters regarding assignment set forth on Section 6.7(c) of the Disclosure Schedule with respect to certain Assumed Contracts.

6.8 Notifications; Update of Schedule of Exceptions. Until the Closing, Seller, on the one hand, and Purchaser, on the other hand, shall promptly notify the other Party in writing of any fact, change, condition, circumstance or occurrence or nonoccurrence of any event of which it is aware that will or is reasonably likely to result in any of the conditions set forth in Article VIII becoming incapable of being satisfied; provided, however, that the delivery of any notice pursuant to this Section 6.8 shall not limit or otherwise affect the remedies available hereunder to the Party receiving such notice. Seller may, from time to time, prior to or at the Closing, by notice given in accordance with this Agreement, supplement or amend the Schedule of Exceptions to add to Sections 2.1(c) and 4.11 of the Schedule of Exceptions any Business Contract entered into after the date of this Agreement, provided such Business Contract was entered into in accordance with Sections 6.1 or 6.2). In such event, each written notice provided by Seller to Purchaser pursuant to this Section 6.8 to add Business Contracts to Sections 2.1(c) and 4.11 of the Schedule of Exceptions shall be deemed (i) to have amended such sections of the Schedule of Exceptions as of the date of such notice, (ii) to have added an Assumed Contract and qualified the representations and warranties of Seller in Section 4.11 as of the date of such notice and (iii) to have cured any Breach that otherwise might have existed hereunder by reason of such development; provided, however, that no such supplements or amendments, individually or in the aggregate, shall indicate the occurrence of an event or change that constitutes or would be reasonably expected to constitute a Material Adverse Effect. After the date hereof, Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver (including via electronic means) to Purchaser no later than five Business Days prior to Closing copies of all insertion orders that are unperformed for each of the advertisers listed on Section 4.11(a)(i) of the Schedule of Exceptions that have not previously been provided to Purchaser (each such insertion order so delivered, a “Remaining IO”). Purchaser shall promptly review each Remaining IO when delivered and shall be deemed to have automatically approved the assumption of each Remaining IO, except to the extent that, within two Business Days following receipt of the Remaining IO, Purchaser (i) determines in good faith that such Remaining IO differs from the form of insertion order previously

provided to Purchaser in a way that would reasonably be expected to have a material and adverse effect on Purchaser, and (ii) provides written notice to Seller of such determination and its election to not assume such Remaining IO (any such unassumed Remaining IO, a “Challenged IO”). Purchaser and Seller shall negotiate in good faith arrangements for Purchaser to perform Seller’s obligations under each Challenged IO that is unperformed. Sections 2.1(c) and 4.11 of the Schedule of Exceptions shall be deemed to have been amended with respect to all Remaining IOs (other than Challenged IOs), and each of such insertion orders shall be deemed to be Assumed Contracts. In addition, after the date hereof, Seller shall provide Purchaser with reasonable access, during normal business hours, to Seller’s electronic files for those parties that have been customers of the Business from July 31, 2008 through the date of the Closing.

6.9 Further Action.

(a) Each of the Parties shall use its reasonable best efforts to satisfy or cause to be satisfied all the conditions precedent that are set forth in Article VIII, as applicable to each of them, and to cause the Transactions to be consummated, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to obtain all material consents and authorizations of third parties and to make all filings with, and give all notices to, Third Parties that may be necessary or reasonably required on its part in order to consummate the Transactions on a timely basis.

(b) Each of the Parties shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all appropriate action, to do or cause to be done all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Legal Requirements, and to execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, such documents and other papers as may be required to carry out the provisions of this Agreement and consummate the Transactions.

6.10 Production of Witnesses and Individuals; Privilege Matters.

(a) From and after the Closing, Seller, on the one hand, and Purchaser, on the other hand, shall make available to each other, upon written request, their (and their Affiliates’) respective officers, directors, employees and agents for fact finding, consultation and interviews and as witnesses to the extent that any such Person may be required in connection with any Proceeding in which the requesting Party may from time to time be involved relating to Seller or the Business, prior to or after the Closing. Access to such Persons shall be granted during normal business hours at a location and in a manner reasonably calculated to minimize disruption to such Persons and the Business. The Parties agree to reimburse each other for reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses, including attorneys’ fees, but excluding officers’ or employees’ salaries, incurred by the other in connection with providing individuals and witnesses pursuant to this Section 6.10(a).

(b) Except as required pursuant to any applicable Legal Requirement, from and after the Closing, Purchaser shall not intentionally disclose, and shall not permit any of its Affiliates to disclose intentionally, any documents or other information (i) that, if disclosed, would cause a waiver of any privilege that could be asserted under applicable Legal Requirements if such waiver would reasonably be expected to have an adverse effect on Seller, (ii) related to the Excluded Assets or the Excluded Liabilities, (iii) related to the process of the sale of the Business or (iv) related to a Third Party Claim, the defense of which has been assumed by Seller pursuant to Section 9.6.

6.11 Mail and Other Communications. Seller, on the one hand, and Purchaser, on the other hand, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, authorizes Seller (and its officers, employees and agents), on the one hand, and Purchaser and its Affiliates (and their respective officers, directors, employees and agents), on the other hand, as the case may be, if any such Person receives any mail, telegram, package or

other communication intended for another Party or such Party’s Affiliates and it is not readily apparent that such is the case, to open such communications and to retain the same to the extent that they relate to the business of the receiving Party. To the extent that any such communications relate to the business of the non-receiving Party, the receiving Party shall deliver such mail, telegrams, packages or other communications (or, in case the same relate to both businesses, copies thereof) to the other Party. No Party shall open mail unambiguously intended for another Party and marked confidential or proprietary. The provisions of this Section 6.11 are not intended to, and shall not be deemed to, constitute an authorization by a Party to permit another Party to accept service of process on its behalf, and no Party is or shall be deemed to be the agent of another Party for service of process purposes.

6.12 Public Disclosure. On or after the date hereof, Seller shall issue a press release regarding the terms of this Agreement and the Transactions, which press release shall be approved by Purchaser prior to its issuance (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned). Seller and Purchaser shall consult with each other before issuing any press release or otherwise making any public statement or making any other public (or non-confidential) disclosure (whether or not in response to an inquiry) regarding the terms of this Agreement or any of the Transactions, and neither shall issue any such press release or make any such statement or disclosure without the prior approval of the other (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), except as may be required by law or by obligations pursuant to any listing agreement with any national securities exchange, in which case the Party proposing to issue any such press release or make such public statement or disclosure shall use commercially reasonable efforts to consult with the other Party before issuing such press release or making such public statement or disclosure and to cooperate with the other Party to accommodate any reasonable objections made thereto.

6.13 Transferred Employees.

(a) Prior to the Closing Date, Purchaser shall make an offer of employment effective as of the Closing Date to each of the individuals identified on Section 6.13(a) of the Schedule of Exceptions (each, an “Offer Recipient”) and each Offer Recipient who has accepted such offer of employment and who has become an employee of Purchaser shall be referred to herein as a “Transferred Employee”. Each such offer of employment shall be on terms substantially similar to the terms of employment between the Offer Recipient and Seller, as such terms existed on the date hereof, provided, however, that such Offer Recipient’s offer of employment shall be conditioned on execution of Purchaser’s form of Proprietary Information and Inventions Agreement.

(b) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, on and after the Closing Date, Purchaser may, at any time, terminate the employment of any Transferred Employee with Purchaser, or change the terms of any Transferred Employee’s employment with Purchaser (including his or her salary or wages or any employee benefits he or she is receiving), except as otherwise provided in any employment agreement between Purchaser and such Transferred Employee.

(c) On the Closing Date, Seller shall take such action as is necessary so that each Offer Recipient shall cease being a Business Employee and so that each Transferred Employee shall cease participation in any Business Employee Plan, and in accordance with the Noncompetition and Nonsolicitation Agreements, Seller shall not solicit on or after the Closing Date any Business Employee who was an Offer Recipient. On and after the Closing Date, Seller and its Affiliates, including all ERISA Affiliates, shall retain all Liabilities for claims incurred and any other matters occurring under the Business Employee Plans and Employee Agreements. On the Closing Date, Seller shall pay each Transferred Employee the amount of any accrued but unused vacation time (including flexible time off and sick pay) as of the Closing Date to which such Transferred Employee is entitled pursuant to the vacation policy of Seller immediately prior to the Closing Date. Seller shall retain any obligations for

severance pay or other obligation of Seller that Seller must pay or satisfy due to Seller’s termination of all Offer Recipients’ employment with Seller in connection with their termination. Purchaser shall not (and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries and Affiliates not to), for a period of twelve months following the Closing Date, hire (whether as an employee, contractor, consultant or otherwise), or make any offer to so hire, any Offer Recipient who does not become a Transferred Employee unless Purchaser (i) provides prior written notice to Seller of its intention to so hire, or offer to hire, any such individual, and (ii) in connection with the actual hiring of any such individual, pays to Seller an amount equal to the amount of severance paid by Seller to such individual in connection with his or her termination.

(d) No provision of this Section 6.13 shall create any third party beneficiary or other rights in any Offer Recipient, Transferred Employee or former employee of Seller or any of their respective Affiliates (including any beneficiary or dependent of an Offer Recipient, Transferred Employee or any such former employee), including rights in respect of continued employment (or resumed employment) with Purchaser, or any pay or benefits provided under any Purchaser employee benefit plan, policy program or arrangement.

(e) For a period of 30 days following the Closing, at the reasonable request of Purchaser, Seller shall inform Purchaser of the number of employees terminated at any of Seller’s business locations.

6.14 Lease. Purchaser and Seller each shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the landlord under the lease of Seller’s facility in San Francisco to consent to the assignment of such lease to Purchaser on or prior to the Closing Date. Seller shall be responsible for the payment of all fees and expenses due and owing as a result of seeking such consent, including the fee for assignment and the reimbursement of all the legal fees of the landlord.

ARTICLE VII

TAXES

7.1 Taxes Related to Purchase of the Business Assets. All state and local sales, use, gross-receipts, transfer, gains, excise, value-added or other similar Taxes in connection with the transfer of the Business Assets and the assumption of the Assumed Liabilities, and all recording and filing fees that may be imposed by reason of the sale, transfer, assignment and delivery of the Business Assets or the performance of any obligations of Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement (collectively, “Transaction Taxes”), shall be paid by Seller on or prior to their due date.

7.2 Proration of Personal Property Taxes. All personal property Taxes and assessments on the Business Assets for any taxable period commencing prior to the Closing Date and ending after the Closing Date (a “Straddle Period”) shall be prorated between Purchaser, on the one hand, and Seller, on the other hand, as of the close of business on the Closing Date based on the best information then available, with (a) Seller’s being liable for such Taxes attributable to any portion of a Straddle Period ending on or prior to the Closing Date and (b) Purchaser’s being liable for such Taxes attributable to any portion of a Straddle Period beginning after the Closing Date. Information available after the Closing Date that alters the amount of Taxes due with respect to the Straddle Period will be taken into account, and any change in the amount of such Taxes shall be prorated between Purchaser and Seller as set forth in the next sentence. All such prorations shall be allocated so that items relating to the portion of a Straddle Period ending on or prior to the Closing Date shall be allocated to Seller based upon the number of days in the Straddle Period on or prior to the Closing Date, and items related to the portion of a Straddle Period beginning after the Closing Date shall be allocated to Purchaser based upon the number of days in the Straddle Period after the Closing Date. The amount of all such prorations shall, if able to be calculated on or prior to the Closing Date, be paid on the Closing Date or, if not able to be calculated on or prior to the Closing Date, be calculated and paid as soon as practicable thereafter.

7.3 Cooperation on Tax Matters. Seller and Purchaser shall (and shall cause their respective Affiliates to) cooperate fully with each other and make available or cause to be made available to each other for consultation, inspection and copying (at such other party’s expense) in a timely fashion such personnel, Tax data, relevant Tax Returns or portions thereof and filings, files, books, records, documents, financial, technical and operating data, computer records and other information as may be reasonably required (a) for the preparation by such other Party of any Tax Returns or (b) in connection with any Tax audit or proceeding affecting or concerning one Party (or an Affiliate thereof) to the extent such Tax audit or proceeding relates to or arises from the operation of the Business before or after the Closing Date and/or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Any information made available by one Party (or an Affiliate) to the other Party (or an Affiliate) pursuant to this Section 7.3 shall be held in strict confidence by such other Party (or Affiliate) and shall be used solely by such other Party (or Affiliate) only in connection with the reason for which it was requested.

7.4 Retention of Tax Records. After the Closing Date and until the fourth anniversary thereof or such longer period as Seller may request in writing for a reasonable business purpose (including, without limitation, any examination of Tax Returns by a taxing authority or agency), Purchaser shall retain possession of all accounting, business, financial and Tax records and information that come into existence after the Closing Date but relate to the Business Assets and/or the operation of the Business before the Closing Date. In addition, from and after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall provide to Seller and its accountants, counsel and representatives (after reasonable notice and during normal business hours and without charge to Seller) access to the books, records, documents and other information relating to the Business Assets as Seller may reasonably deem necessary to properly prepare for, file, prove, answer, prosecute and defend any Tax Return, claim, filing, tax audit, tax protest, suit, proceeding or answer.

7.5 Allocation of Purchase Price and Purchase Price Allocation Forms.

(a) The Purchase Price, Assumed Liabilities and other relevant items shall be allocated among the Business Assets in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code. Purchaser shall engage at its expense a nationally recognized valuation firm to conduct a valuation of the Business Assets. Based on such valuation, Purchaser shall prepare and deliver to Seller an allocation schedule setting forth Purchaser’s proposed allocation of the Purchase Price, Assumed Liabilities and other relevant items among the Business Assets (the “Proposed Allocation Schedule”) within 60 days of the Closing Date or as soon thereafter as practicable. The Parties thereafter shall negotiate in good faith to agree upon a final allocation of the Purchase Price, Assumed Liabilities and other relevant items among the Business Assets within 30 days of the date of delivery of the Proposed Allocation Schedule.

(b) If the Parties do not reach agreement on the allocation within such period of time, Seller may engage a nationally recognized valuation firm at its sole expense to conduct a valuation of the Business Assets and shall deliver to Purchaser within 45 days a list of objections to the Proposed Allocation Schedule. The Parties thereafter shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any such objections within 30 days of the date of delivery of Seller’s objections to the Proposed Allocation Schedule. If the Parties are unable to agree on an allocation within such period of time, then the matter shall be submitted to the Settlement Accountant. The Settlement Accountant shall review the list of objections provided by Seller and any information, arguments and support each Party provides to support its position and, solely based on such information and not based on any independent review, shall make a final determination of the allocation within 45 days following the submission of the matter to the Settlement Accountant for resolution. The determination of the Settlement Accountant shall be final and binding on Purchaser and

Seller. Seller and Purchaser shall share the expenses of the Settlement Accountant equally. If Seller fails to engage a valuation firm or to provide a list of objections to the Proposed Allocation Schedule within the 45 days described in the first sentence of this Section 7.5(b) above, Seller shall be deemed to have waived any objections it may have had to the Proposed Allocation Schedule.

(c) The allocation determined by the Parties’ agreement on the Proposed Allocation Schedule, the Settlement Accountant or the waiver of Seller’s objections to the Proposed Allocation Schedule shall be the final allocation of the Purchase Price, Assumed Liabilities and other relevant items among the Business Assets (the “Allocation Schedule”). The Allocation Schedule shall identify the transferor and transferee thereof, and shall be prepared in accordance with United States Treasury Regulations Section 1.1060-1 (or any comparable provision of state or local tax applicable Legal Requirements) or any successor provision. The Parties shall report the federal, state, local and other Tax consequences of the purchase and sale hereunder (including in filings on IRS Form 8594) in a manner consistent with the Allocation Schedule and shall not take any position inconsistent therewith in connection with any Tax Return, refund claim, litigation or otherwise, unless and to the extent required to do so pursuant to applicable law. Seller and Purchaser shall cooperate in the filing of any forms (including IRS Form 8594) with respect to such allocation.

7.6 Unbilled Transactional Taxes. If a Tax assessment is levied upon any Party by an authorized tax jurisdiction for unbilled Transaction Taxes that are the obligation of the other Party under this Agreement, then the non-assessed Party shall reimburse the assessed Party for those taxes, including any interest and penalty other than any interest and penalty attributable to the assessed Party’s failure to promptly pay or protest such Tax when assessed.

All covenants and agreements contained herein shall survive until fully discharged. The representations, warranties, covenants and obligations of Seller and the rights and remedies that may be exercised by any Purchaser Indemnified Party, shall not be limited or otherwise affected by or as a result of any information furnished to, or any investigation made by or any knowledge of, any Purchaser Indemnified Party or any of their Representatives.

9.2 Indemnification by Seller. Purchaser and its Affiliates, Representatives, officers, directors, employees, successors and assigns (each, a “Purchaser Indemnified Party”) shall be indemnified and held harmless by Seller for and against any and all Liabilities, costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages and amounts paid in settlement (including any Liability relating to third-party claims), but excluding any incidental, liquidated, special, indirect, punitive or consequential damages or lost profits (unless such damages or lost profits are part of a Third Party Claim) (each a “Loss” and, together, “Losses”), arising from or in connection with:

(a) the Excluded Liabilities or the Excluded Assets;

(b) the Breach of any representation or warranty made by Seller contained in this Agreement;

(d) the noncompliance with any Legal Requirements related to fraudulent transfers in respect of the Transactions;

(e) any act of fraud by Seller or any officer, director, Affiliate or employee of Seller related to this Agreement or any of the Ancillary Agreements; or

9.3 Indemnification by Purchaser. Seller and its Affiliates, Representatives, officers, directors, employees, successors and assigns (each, a “Seller Indemnified Party”) shall be indemnified and held harmless by Purchaser for and against any and all Losses, arising from or in connection with:

(b) the Breach of any representation or warranty made by Purchaser contained in this Agreement;

(d) any act of fraud by Purchaser or any officer, director, Affiliate or employee of Purchaser related to this Agreement or any of the Ancillary Agreements.

9.4 Limits on Indemnification.

(a) No claim may be asserted nor may any Proceeding be commenced against either Seller or Purchaser for breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained herein, unless written notice of such claim or Proceeding is received by such party describing in reasonable detail the subject matter of such claim or Proceeding on or prior to the date on which the representation, warranty, covenant or agreement on which such claim or Proceeding is based ceases to survive as set forth in Section 9.1, irrespective of whether the subject matter of such claim or Proceeding shall have occurred before or after such date.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement:

(i) in the event of any breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty which includes any qualification as to “materiality” or “Material Adverse Effect,” for purposes of determining the amount of any Loss with respect to such breach or inaccuracy, no effect will be given to such qualification as to “materiality” or a “Material Adverse Effect” contained therein (for the avoidance of doubt, such qualifications would continue to apply to the determination as to whether or not a breach or inaccuracy had occurred, but not in the determination of the amount of the Loss);

(ii) an Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any claim for indemnification for monetary damages pursuant to Sections 9.2(b), 9.2(f) or 9.3(b) unless and until the aggregate amount of indemnifiable Losses which may be recovered from the Indemnifying Party equals or exceeds $200,000 (the “Deductible”), after which the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the amount of such Loss in excess of the Deductible;

(iii) the maximum aggregate amount of monetary damages for indemnifiable Losses which may be recovered from an Indemnifying Party arising out of or resulting from the causes set forth in Sections 9.2(b) (other than for a Breach of a Specified Representation) and 9.2(f) shall be equal to the amount of the Anniversary Payment (as may be reduced pursuant to Section 3.5(d) hereof), and the maximum aggregate amount of monetary damages for indemnifiable Losses which may be recovered from an Indemnifying Party arising out of or resulting from the causes set forth in Sections 9.3(b) shall be equal to $2,000,000.00; provided, however, that in connection with a Breach of a Specified Representation, the maximum amount of monetary damages for indemnifiable Losses which may be recovered from an Indemnifying Party arising out of or resulting from the causes set forth in Section 9.2(b) or 9.3(b) shall not be subject to such limit;

(iv) the Purchase Price adjustment (other than to the extent the adjustment reduces the aggregate amount available for indemnification and set-off as provided in Sections 9.4(b)(iii) and 9.9) and Taxes that are the subjects of Section 3.5 and Article VII, respectively, shall not be subject to this Article IX;

(v) notwithstanding the foregoing, the limitations on damages set forth in Sections 9.4(b)(ii) and (iii) shall not apply (x) in the case of fraud or other willful misconduct or (y) to Losses arising from the causes set forth in Section 9.2(a), 9.2(c) 9.2(d), 9.2(e), 9.3(a), 9.3(c) and 9.3(d); and

(vi) notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Purchaser Indemnified Party shall be entitled to make any claim for indemnifiable Losses arising out of or resulting from the cause set forth in 9.2(f) unless the claim for such indemnifiable Losses is made on or prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date; provided that any such claim made with reasonable specificity within such period shall survive until such claim is finally and fully resolved.

(c) Seller (including any officer or director of Seller) shall not have any right of contribution, indemnification or right of advancement from Purchaser or any other Purchaser Indemnified Party with respect to any Loss claimed by a Purchaser Indemnified Party.

(d) Each payment by an Indemnifying Party made pursuant to this Article IX shall be reduced to the extent of any (i) insurance proceeds actually received by Purchaser or Seller, as applicable, or (ii) reimbursements or similar payments actually received by Purchaser or Seller, as applicable, from a third party with respect to such payment; provided, however, neither Purchaser nor Seller, as applicable, shall have any obligation whatsoever to seek any payments from, or take action with respect to, any insurance policies or third parties in lieu of or as a condition to receiving a payment from an Indemnifying Party under this Article IX and any such action shall be at the sole and absolute discretion of Purchaser or Seller, as applicable.

(e) In no event shall any Indemnified Party be entitled to recover for Losses pursuant to this Article IX to the extent that such Losses are accounted for on EXHIBIT H.

9.5 Notice of Loss.

(a) An Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party prompt written notice of any matter which an Indemnified Party has determined has given or could give rise to a right of indemnification under this Agreement, stating in reasonable detail the amount of the Loss, if known, and method of computation thereof, and containing a reference to the provisions of this Agreement in respect of which such right of indemnification is claimed or arises (an “Indemnification Claim Notice”). Any failure on the part of an Indemnified Party to provide notice promptly shall not limit any of the obligations of the Indemnifying Party, except to the extent such failure materially prejudices the Indemnifying Party’s ability to defend such claim.

(b) In the event that the Indemnifying Party shall not dispute any Losses or amounts in the Indemnification Claim Notice, the Indemnifying Party shall as soon as practicable, but in no event greater than 30 calendar days from receipt of the Indemnification Claim Notice, remit payment of the amounts of Loss to the Indemnified Party.

(c) In the event that the Indemnifying Party shall disagree with any Losses or amounts in the Indemnification Claim Notice within 30 calendar days following receipt of the Indemnification Claim Notice, the Indemnifying Party may deliver a notice of such disagreement (an “Indemnification Claim Dispute”) setting forth, in reasonable detail and to the extent practicable, each item or amount of Loss so disputed by the Indemnifying Party. In the event that the Indemnifying Party

shall deliver to the Indemnified Party an Indemnification Claim Dispute, the Indemnified Party may either: (1) elect to negotiate any disputed item(s) and amount(s) of Loss or (2) refer any disputed item(s) and amount(s) to arbitration as set forth in Section 9.5(e) below for resolution in accordance with the terms and conditions thereof.

(d) In the event that the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall reach agreement on any of the disputed items and amounts of Loss set forth in the Indemnification Claim Notice, then (A) the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall (1) execute a memorandum setting forth the resolved item(s) and/or amount(s) of Loss and (2) refer any remaining disputed item(s) and amount(s) to arbitration as set forth in Section 9.5(e) below for resolution in accordance with the terms and conditions thereof and (B) the Indemnifying Party shall within 30 calendar days of the execution of such memorandum make the payment to the Indemnified Party of the agreed upon amount.

(e) Resolution of Conflicts.

(i) If no agreement between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party on the Losses set forth in the Indemnification Claim Notice can be reached after good faith negotiation and within 30 calendar days after delivery of an Indemnification Claim Notice, either the Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party may demand arbitration of the matter unless the amount of the Loss that is at issue is the subject of a pending litigation with a Third Party, in which event arbitration shall not be commenced until such amount is ascertained or both parties agree to arbitration, and in either such event the matter shall be determined by arbitration conducted by one arbitrator mutually agreeable to the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party. In the event that, within 30 calendar days after submission of any dispute to arbitration, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party cannot mutually agree on one arbitrator, then, within 15 calendar days after the end of such 30 calendar day period, the Indemnified Party shall select one arbitrator, and the Indemnifying Party shall select one arbitrator. The two arbitrators so selected shall select a third arbitrator. If either the Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party fails to select an arbitrator during this 15 calendar day period, then the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party agree that the arbitration will be conducted by one arbitrator selected by the Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party, as appropriate. Even after any arbitration begins, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall retain the right to come to an agreement upon the rights of the respective parties with respect to each of such claims. Upon reaching such agreement, a memorandum setting forth such agreement shall be prepared and signed by both parties and the arbitration shall cease.

(ii) Any such arbitration shall be held in Chicago, Illinois, under the rules then in effect of the American Arbitration Association. Unless otherwise determined by applicable law, the arbitrator(s) shall determine how all expenses relating to the arbitration shall be paid. The arbitrator or arbitrators, as the case may be, shall set a limited time period and establish procedures designed to reduce the cost and time for discovery while allowing the parties an opportunity, adequate in the sole judgment of the arbitrator or majority of the three arbitrators, as the case may be, to discover relevant information in a reasonably expeditious and cost-effective manner from the opposing parties about the subject matter of the dispute. The arbitrator, or a majority of the three arbitrators, as the case may be, shall rule upon motions to compel or limit discovery and shall have the authority to impose sanctions, including attorneys’ fees and costs, to the same extent as a competent Delaware State court of law or equity, should the arbitrators or a majority of the three arbitrators, as the case may be, determine that discovery was sought without substantial justification or that discovery was refused or objected to without substantial justification. The decision of the arbitrator or a majority of the three arbitrators, as the case may be, as to the validity and amount of any claim in the Indemnification Claim Notice shall be final, binding, and conclusive upon the Parties to this Agreement. Such decision shall be written and shall be supported by written findings of fact and conclusions which shall set forth the award, judgment, decree or

order awarded by the arbitrator(s). Within 30 calendar days of a decision of the arbitrator(s) requiring payment by the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party shall make the payment to the Indemnified Party.

(iii) Judgment upon any award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The forgoing arbitration provision shall apply to any dispute among the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party under this Article IX.

9.6 Third Party Claims. If an Indemnified Party shall receive notice of any Proceeding, audit, claim, demand or assessment (each, a “Third Party Claim”) against it which may give rise to a claim for Loss under this Article IX, the Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party prompt written notice of such Third Party Claim stating in reasonable detail the amount of the Loss, if known, and method of computation thereof, and containing a reference to the provisions of this Agreement in respect of which such right of indemnification is claimed or arises. The Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to control the defense of such Third Party Claim through counsel of its choice at its own expense provided that the Indemnifying Party acknowledges its responsibility to indemnify the Indemnified Party for such Third Party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party so undertakes any such defense against a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at its own expense. The Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in such defense and make available to the Indemnifying Party, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, all witnesses, pertinent records, materials and information in the Indemnified Party’s possession or under the Indemnified Party’s control relating thereto as is reasonably required by the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party does not undertake such defense and elects to allow the Indemnified Party to direct the defense of any such claim or proceeding, the Indemnified Party shall not pay, or permit to be paid, any part of such Third Party Claim unless the Indemnifying Party consents in writing to such payment, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, or unless the Indemnifying Party withdraws from the defense of such Third Party Claim Liability or unless a final judgment from which no appeal may be taken by or on behalf of the Indemnifying Party is entered against the Indemnified Party for such Third Party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any such claims or proceeding pursuant to this Section 9.6, the Indemnifying Party shall have the power and authority to settle or consent to the entry of judgment in respect of such claim or proceeding without the consent of the Indemnified Party if the judgment or settlement results only in the payment by the Indemnifying Party of money damages and includes a release of the Indemnified Party from any and all liability thereunder, and, in all other events, the Indemnifying Party shall not consent to the entry of judgment or enter into any settlement in respect of a Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

9.7 Exclusive Remedy. Except as otherwise provided herein, Purchaser and Seller acknowledge and agree that following the Closing, the indemnification provisions of Section 9.2 and Section 9.3 shall be the sole and exclusive remedies of Purchaser and Seller for any breach by the other Party of the representations and warranties in this Agreement and for any failure by the other Party to perform and comply with any covenants and agreements in this Agreement, except that (a) if any of the provisions of this Agreement are not performed in accordance with their terms or are otherwise breached, the Parties shall be entitled to specific performance of the terms hereof in addition to any other remedy at law or equity and (b) the foregoing clause shall not be deemed a waiver by any Party of any right or remedy arising by reason of any claim of fraud or intentional misrepresentation or intentional omissions with respect to this Agreement.

9.8 Characterization of Indemnification Payments. Purchaser and Seller agree to treat any payment made under this Article IX as an adjustment to the Purchase Price.

9.9 Setoff. In addition to any rights of setoff or other rights that an Indemnified Party may have at common law or otherwise against an Indemnifying Party, Purchaser shall have the right to withhold and deduct any sum that may be owed by Seller to Purchaser under this Article IX from the Anniversary Payment (as may be reduced pursuant to Section 3.5(d) hereof); provided that, unless otherwise agreed by Seller and Purchaser, the amount of any indemnifiable Losses arising out of or resulting from the causes set forth in Sections 9.2(b) (other than a Breach of a Specified Representation) and 9.2(f) shall be so withheld and deducted from the Anniversary Payment to the maximum extent allowed; provided further, that in the event that Purchaser proposes to set off any such sum against the Anniversary Payment, (a) Purchaser shall provide prior written notice of the proposed setoff to Seller specifying in reasonable detail the amount and basis thereof and (b) Purchaser shall not be obligated to pay to Seller such amount until the amount owed by Seller to Purchaser under this Article IX is finally determined in accordance with the provisions of this Article IX; provided, that Purchaser shall remain obligated, in accordance with Section 3.2, to timely pay the balance of the Anniversary Payment not subject to a pending, or finally determined, setoff claim pursuant to this Section 9.9.

This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware (without reference to principles of conflicts of laws) and any action brought to enforce any provision of this Agreement shall be commenced and maintained only in the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware or any federal court sitting in the State of Delaware. The Parties agree and consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts and agree not to plead in any action related to this Agreement that such courts are an unfit or inconvenient forum for the resolution of any such action.

11.10 Waiver of Jury Trial. Each of the Parties hereby waives to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law any right it may have to a trial by jury with respect to any litigation directly or indirectly arising out of, under or in connection with this Agreement or the transactions. Each of the Parties hereby (a) certifies that no representative of the other Party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such other Party would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce the foregoing waiver and (b) acknowledges that it has been induced to enter into this Agreement and the transactions, as applicable, by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications in this Section 11.10.

11.11 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed and delivered (including by facsimile or other electronic transmission) in two or more counterparts, each of which when executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

11.12 Further Assurances.

(a) Each Party shall execute and/or cause to be delivered to each other Party such instruments and other documents, and shall take such other actions, as such other Party may reasonably request (prior to, at or after the Closing) for the purpose of carrying out or evidencing any of the Transactions. In furtherance of the foregoing, and notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Purchaser shall take all action to prepare and deliver to Seller all necessary documents and shall bear all fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, recordation and filing of any documents required to be prepared, recorded or filed, or performed for Intellectual Property assignments or otherwise and Purchaser shall reimburse Seller for any reasonable third party out-of-pocket fees, costs or expenses incurred by Seller in connection with this Section 11.12(a), other than Seller’s attorneys fees, if any, which shall be Seller’s sole obligation.

(b) From and after the Closing, if Purchaser identifies additional assets which were used primarily in connection with the Business (other than the Excluded Assets) but which were not transferred to Purchaser as part of the Transactions, including, without limitation, any additional Internet Properties which were not part of the Websites, Purchaser shall notify Seller and request that such asset be transferred to Purchaser. If Seller agrees that such asset should have been transferred to Purchaser, Seller shall promptly (and in no event more than 15 calendar days after Purchaser’s request) execute any documentation necessary to cause such asset to be transferred to Purchaser. If Seller does not agree that such asset should have been transferred to Purchaser, Purchaser and Seller shall meet to resolve any dispute regarding such asset. If no agreement between Seller and Purchaser can be reached after good faith negotiation within 30 calendar days after Purchaser’s request to transfer such asset, either Purchaser or Seller may demand arbitration of the matter pursuant to the provisions of Section 9.5(e)(i) of this Agreement. In addition, if after the Closing Seller identifies additional assets which were used primarily in connection with the Business (other than the Excluded Assets) but which were not transferred to Purchaser as part of the Transactions, Seller shall promptly cause such assets to be transferred to Purchaser.

(c) From and after the Closing, if Seller identifies assets which were not used primarily in connection with the Business but which were transferred to Purchaser as part of the Transactions, Seller shall notify Purchaser and request that such asset be transferred back to Seller. If Purchaser agrees that such asset should not have been transferred to Purchaser, Purchaser shall promptly (and in no event more than 15 calendar days after Seller’s request) execute any documentation necessary to cause such asset to be transferred back to Seller. If Purchaser does not agree that such asset should not have been transferred to Purchaser, Purchaser and Seller shall meet to resolve any dispute regarding such asset. If no agreement between Seller and Purchaser can be reached after good faith negotiation within 30 calendar days after Seller’s request to transfer such asset, either Purchaser or Seller may demand arbitration of the matter pursuant to the provisions of Section 9.5(e)(i) of this Agreement. In addition, if after the Closing Purchaser identifies assets which were not used primarily in connection with the Business but which were transferred to Purchaser as part of the Transactions, Purchaser shall promptly cause such assets to be transferred back to Seller. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller and Purchaser agree that all of the Websites are Business Assets and Seller will not seek to have transferred back to Seller any Website.

11.13 Attorney Fees. If any Proceeding relating to this Agreement or any of the Ancillary Agreements or the enforcement of any provision of any of this Agreement or any of the Ancillary Agreements is brought against any Party, the prevailing Party shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and disbursements (in addition to any other relief to which the prevailing Party may be entitled).

11.14 Specific Performance. Subject to Article X, the Parties agree that irreparable damage may occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached and that money damages may not be an adequate remedy therefore. It is accordingly agreed that the Parties hereto shall be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement by the other Party and to seek to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement against the other Party, this being in addition to any other remedy to which it is entitled at law or in equity.
