If Seller, by written notice to Purchaser before the close of business on such thirtieth day specifying the items and amount in dispute (an "Objection Notice"), objects to any aspect of the Preliminary Adjustment Report, then those aspects as to which the objection was made shall not become binding, Purchaser and Seller shall discuss such objection in good faith; and, if they reach written agreement with respect to all items in dispute amending the Preliminary Adjustment Report, the Preliminary Adjustment Report, as amended by such written agreement, shall become binding upon Purchaser and Seller, and shall be the "Final Adjustment Report", and the date of such written agreement shall be the "Final Adjustment Report Date". If Purchaser and Seller do not reach such written agreement within twenty (20) days after Seller gives such notice of objection, those aspects as to which such objection was made, and which has not been resolved, shall be submitted jointly by Purchaser and Seller for arbitration by an independent accounting firm of nationally recognized standing acceptable to Seller and Purchaser (the "Accounting Firm") (whose fees shall be paid equally by Purchaser and Seller), which shall arbitrate the dispute and submit a written statement of its adjudication, which statement, when delivered to Purchaser and to Seller, shall become final and binding upon Purchaser and Seller, and shall, together with those aspects of the Preliminary Adjustment Report as to which no objection was made, be the "Final Adjustment Report". In such case, the second Business Day after the date on which such statement is delivered to Purchaser and to Seller shall be the "Final Adjustment Report Date". The scope of the disputes to be resolved by the Accounting Firm is limited to whether the amounts set forth on the line items on the Closing Balance Sheet used to calculate the Preliminary Purchase Price were obtained from and in accordance with the books and records of the Companies, the Company Subsidiaries, Newco, Holdco, Interco and the Canadian Parks Business and are in accordance with GAAP, applied on a basis consistent with prior periods, and as applied to prepare the Balance Sheet, including normal fiscal year end closing adjustments, and whether there were mathematical errors in the Preliminary Adjustment Report, in each case, to the extent related to the unresolved items set forth in the Objection Notice, and the Accounting Firm is not to make any other determination. The determination of the Accounting Firm shall constitute an arbitral award that is final, binding and unappealable and upon which a judgment may be entered by any court having jurisdiction thereof. In acting hereunder, the Accounting Firm shall be entitled to the privileges and immunities of arbitrators.
If Seller delivers an Objection Notice and Purchaser and Seller do not reach written agreement with respect to all items in dispute within twenty (20) days after Seller gives an Objection Notice, then within two Business Days after the expiration of such twenty-day period, (i) Purchaser shall pay to Seller the excess, if any, of (x) the lesser of (1) the Preliminary Purchase Price stated in the Preliminary Adjustment Report or (2) the Purchase Price calculated as if all of the items as to which Seller objected in the Objection Notice and as to which such objections remain unresolved were resolved in Seller's favor (the "Unresolved Objection Purchase Price") over (y) the Estimated Purchase Price (a "Purchaser Interim Payment"), and (ii) Seller shall pay to Purchaser the excess, if any, of (x) the Estimated Purchase Price over (y) the greater of (1) the Preliminary Purchase Price stated in the Preliminary Adjustment Report or (2) the Unresolved Objection Purchase Price (a "Seller Interim Payment").
Within two Business Days after the Final Adjustment Report Date, Purchaser shall pay to Seller the excess, if any, of (i) the Purchase Price stated in the Final Adjustment Report under such Section, minus any Purchaser Interim Payment or plus any Seller Interim Payment over (ii) the Estimated Purchase Price, and Seller shall pay to Purchaser the excess if any, of (x) the Estimated Purchase Price plus any Purchaser Interim Payment or minus any Seller Interim Payment over (y) the Purchase Price stated in the Final Adjustment Report. To the extent such a payment relates to the Canadian Parks Business, the payment will be deemed to be made by Seller or Purchaser, as the case may be, as agent for and on behalf of CBS Canada (in the case of Seller) or Newco (in the case of Purchaser).
Any payment required to be made by Seller or Purchaser pursuant to Section 2.3(c) or 2.3(d) that does not already provide for interest from the Closing Date shall bear interest from the Closing Date to (but excluding) the date of such payment at the Applicable Rate as in effect from time to time and shall be made in immediately available funds to an account designated by recipient.

Financial Information.

Section 3.7 of the Seller Disclosure Letter contains copies of the following financial statements of the Companies and the Canadian Parks Business (collectively, the "Financial Statements"): (i) the audited combined balance sheet of the Companies, the Company Subsidiaries and the Canadian Parks Business (the "Balance Sheet") as of December 31, 2005 (the "Balance Sheet Date") and December 31, 2004 and the related statements of income and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ending December 31, 2005 (together with the notes thereto) and (ii) the unaudited balance sheet of the Companies, the Company Subsidiaries and the Canadian Parks Business as of March 31, 2006, and the related unaudited statement of income for the three month period then ended (the "Interim Financial Statements"). The Financial Statements (x) present fairly in all material respects the combined financial condition and results of operations of the Companies, the Company Subsidiaries and the Canadian Parks Business as of the dates thereof or for the periods covered thereby (subject, in the case of the Interim Financial Statements, to normal year-end adjustments and the absence of full footnote disclosure) and (y) have been prepared in all material respects in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis for the periods involved (except as may be indicated in the notes thereto).

All of the representations in (a) above are qualified by the fact that Paramount Parks is a wholly-owned Subsidiary of CBS. As disclosed in Note 1 and Note 3 to the Financial Statements, Paramount Parks relies on CBS for certain general and administrative services and engages in related party transactions with CBS and certain companies affiliated with CBS. The amounts recorded for these transactions are not necessarily representative of the amounts that would have been reflected in the Financial Statements had Paramount Parks been operated as a stand-alone company for the periods presented. For purposes of the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement (other than Section 3.7(c) below), materiality standards and the application of GAAP shall be measured with respect to the Companies, the Company Subsidiaries and the Canadian Parks Business and not against CBS.

For purposes of this Agreement, "Antitrust Law" means the Xxxxxxx Act, as amended, the Xxxxxxx Act, as amended, the HSR Act, the Federal Trade Commission Act, as amended, the Competition Act and all other federal, state and foreign, if any, statutes, rules, regulations, orders, decrees, administrative and judicial doctrines and other laws that are designed or intended to prohibit, restrict or regulate actions having the purpose or effect of monopolization or restraint of trade or lessening of competition through merger or acquisition.
In furtherance and not in limitation of the covenants of the parties contained in Sections 5.3(a) and (b), if any objections are asserted with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement under any Antitrust Law or if any suit is instituted (or threatened to be instituted) by the FTC, the DOJ, the Bureau or any other applicable Governmental Authority or any private party challenging any of the transactions contemplated hereby as violative of any Antitrust Law or which would otherwise prevent the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby due to the failure to satisfy the conditions in this Agreement, each of Parent, Purchaser and Seller shall use its reasonable best efforts to resolve any such objections or suits so as to permit consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Parent and Purchaser further agree, in order to resolve such objections or suits which, in any case if not resolved, would reasonably be expected to prevent the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby due to the failure to satisfy the conditions in this Agreement, to (i) sell, hold separate or otherwise dispose of the assets to be acquired in this transaction in a manner which would resolve such objections or suits or (ii) agree to sell, hold separate or otherwise dispose of the assets to be acquired in this transaction in a manner which would resolve such objections or suits or (iii) permit the sale, holding separate or other disposition of the assets to be acquired in this transaction in a manner which would resolve such objections or suits, in each case so that the conditions set forth in this Agreement are timely satisfied.
Subject to the obligations under Section 5.3(c), in the event that any administrative or judicial action or proceeding is instituted (or threatened to be instituted) by a Governmental Authority or private party challenging any transaction contemplated by this Agreement, or any other agreement contemplated hereby (i) each of Parent, Purchaser and Seller shall cooperate in all respects with each other and use its respective best efforts to contest and resist any such action or proceeding and to have vacated, lifted, reversed or overturned any decree, judgment, injunction or other order, whether temporary, preliminary or permanent, that is in effect and that prohibits, prevents or restricts consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and (ii) Parent and Purchaser must defend, at their cost and expense, any action or actions, whether judicial or administrative, in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement, nothing in this Section 5.3 or Section 5.10 shall limit a party's right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.1(b) so long as such party has up to then complied in all material respects with its obligations under this Section 5.3 or Section 5.10.
The filing fees under any Antitrust Law, including the HSR Act and the Competition Act, shall be borne by the Purchaser. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Seller and Purchaser shall (and shall cause their respective Affiliates to) respond at their own cost as promptly as practicable to any inquiries received from the FTC or the DOJ for additional information or documentation (including a second request) and to all inquiries and requests received from any other Governmental Authority in connection with any Antitrust Law.

Resignations

. On the Closing Date, Seller shall cause to be delivered to Parent duly signed resignations (from the applicable board of directors or office), effective immediately after the Closing, of all directors and officers of the Companies and each Company Subsidiary, in each case that is also employed by CBS, and shall take such other action as is necessary to accomplish the foregoing.

Directors' and Officers' Indemnification and Insurance.

The certificate of incorporation and by-laws or other constituent documents of the Companies, the Company Subsidiaries, Interco, Holdco and Newco shall continue to contain provisions no less favorable with respect to indemnification, advancement of expenses and exculpation of former or present directors, officers and employees than are presently set forth in the applicable company's certificate of incorporation and by-laws, which provisions shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified for a period of six years from the Closing Date in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of any such individuals.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation (whether arising before, at or after the Closing Date) is made against any present (as of the Closing Date) and former officer, director or employee of the Companies, the Company Subsidiaries, Interco, Holdco and Newco (an "Indemnified Director or Officer"), on or prior to the sixth anniversary of the Closing Date, the provisions of this Section 5.5 shall continue in effect until the final disposition of such claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation.
This covenant is intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each of the Indemnified Directors and Officers and their respective heirs and legal representatives. The indemnification provided for herein shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which an Indemnified Director or Officer is entitled, whether pursuant to Law, contract or otherwise.

Books and Records

. Purchaser shall retain all of the books and records of the Companies, the Company Subsidiaries and the Canadian Parks Business for a period of seven years after the Closing or such longer time as may be required by Law and, subject to restrictions imposed from time to time in good faith upon advice of counsel respecting the provision of privileged communications or competitively sensitive information and any applicable confidentiality agreement with any Person, shall provide, only in such manner that does not unreasonably interfere with the business of the Companies or any Company Subsidiary or the Canadian Parks Business, reasonable access to such pre-Closing books and records (or copies thereof at Seller's expense) to the Seller or its agents, at reasonable times and upon reasonable notice, after the Closing to the extent reasonably necessary for legitimate business reasons, such as disputing any indemnification claim, the preparation of financial statements, Tax returns, the defense of litigation or Tax audits or complying with other legal requirements.

Public Announcements

. Each of Seller and Purchaser agrees that no public release or announcement concerning the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be issued by any party or any of its Affiliates without the prior written consent of Seller and Purchaser (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), except as such release or announcement may be required by Law or the rules or regulations of any applicable United States securities exchange, in which case the party required to make the release or announcement shall use its reasonable best efforts to allow each other party reasonable time to comment on such release or announcement in advance of such issuance, it being understood that the final form and content of any such release or announcement, to the extent so required, shall be at the final discretion of the disclosing party.

Permitted Reorganization

. Prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and Affiliates to, effect the Permitted Reorganization in accordance with Schedule III (including the terms of the Canadian contribution agreement set forth in Schedule III), attached hereto. Seller agrees to reasonably consult with Purchaser with respect to effecting the Permitted Reorganization. Seller shall be responsible for all Taxes and out-of-pocket costs and expenses arising out of or related to the Permitted Reorganization; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, Seller shall not be liable for Taxes owing by Newco (or any successor thereof) in respect of any period after the Closing Date and attributable to the fact that the Canadian Parks Business will be transferred on a tax deferred basis, rather than on a fully taxable basis, for Canadian income tax purposes.

Collective Bargaining Agreement Arrangements

. Effective as of the Closing, Purchaser shall assume all rights, obligations and liabilities of Seller and its Affiliates under each Collective Bargaining Agreement that arise on or after the Closing Date.

Further Assurances

. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each of the parties hereto shall use its respective best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all appropriate action, do or cause to be done all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Law, and execute and deliver such documents and other papers, as may be required to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as promptly as is practicable. Seller shall, as promptly as is reasonably practicable, give such notices to third parties and use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the third party consent listed in Section 5.10(a) of the Seller Disclosure Letter. Purchaser shall cooperate and use all reasonable best efforts to assist Seller in giving such notices and obtaining such consents.

Nothing in this Agreement nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby shall be construed as an attempt or agreement to assign any asset, including any contract, lease, license, permit, certificate, approval, authorization or other right, which by its terms or by Law is nonassignable without the consent of a third party or a Governmental Authority ("Nonassignable Assets") unless and until such consent shall have been obtained. Seller shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to cooperate with Parent and Purchaser in endeavoring to obtain such consents promptly. To the extent permitted by applicable Law, in the event consents to the assignment thereof cannot be obtained, such Nonassignable Assets shall be held, as of and from the Closing Date, by Seller or the applicable Affiliate of Seller in trust for Purchaser and the covenants and obligations thereunder shall be performed by Purchaser in Seller's or such Affiliate's name and all benefits and obligations existing thereunder shall be for Purchaser's account. Seller shall take or cause to be taken at Purchaser's expense such actions in its name or otherwise as Purchaser may reasonably request so as to provide Purchaser with the benefits of the Nonassignable Assets and to effect collection of money or other consideration that becomes due and payable under the Nonassignable Assets, and Seller or the applicable Affiliate of Seller shall promptly pay over to Purchaser all money or other consideration received by it in respect to all Nonassignable Assets.
If requested by Purchaser and permitted by the express terms of the applicable software license, Seller shall make available to the Companies, the Company Subsidiaries and the Canadian Parks Business, effective upon the Closing and for not more than six months thereafter, a license to use the X.X. Xxxxxxx software currently used by any of the Companies, the Company Subsidiaries or the Canadian Parks Business that is substantially similar (with respect to users, cost and all other material terms and conditions) to the current license, but on a standalone basis.

From and after the Closing Date, (i) Seller will afford promptly to Purchaser and its agents reasonable access to its books of account, financial and other records (including accountant's work papers), information, employees and auditors to the extent necessary or reasonably useful for Purchaser in connection with any audit, investigation, dispute or litigation or any other reasonable business purpose relating to the Companies, the Company Subsidiaries, Interco, Holdco and Newco and (ii) Purchaser will cause the Companies, the Company Subsidiaries, Interco, Holdco and Newco to afford promptly to Seller and CBS and their respective agents reasonable access to the books of account, financial and other records (including accountant's work papers), information, employees and auditors of the Companies, the Company Subsidiaries, Interco, Holdco and Newco to the extent necessary or reasonably useful for Seller or CBS in connection with any audit, investigation, dispute or litigation or any other reasonable business purpose relating to such Persons, including preparation of its financial statements and compliance with applicable Law; provided, that any such access by Purchaser or Seller shall not unreasonably interfere with the conduct of the business of Seller or the Companies, the Company Subsidiaries, Interco, Holdco or Newco, as the case may be and; provided, further, that this provision shall not be available to and shall not expand the scope of discovery in the case of a legal proceeding between the parties (but only to the extent of the matters that are the subject of such proceeding). The party afforded access shall bear all of the out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including attorneys' fees, but excluding reimbursement for general overhead, salaries and employee benefits) reasonably incurred in connection with the foregoing. No party shall be required to provide access to or to disclose information where such access or disclosure would jeopardize the attorney-client privilege of such party or contravene any Law or binding agreement entered into prior to the date of this Agreement (it being agreed that the parties shall use their reasonable best efforts to cause such information to be provided in a manner that does not cause such violation or jeopardization).

Letters of Credit

. Purchaser shall replace, within 60 days of the Closing Date, each outstanding letter of credit issued for the benefit of the Companies, the Company Subsidiaries, Interco, Holdco or Newco or the Canadian Parks Business set forth in Section 5.11 of the Seller Disclosure Letter, with a letter of credit reasonably satisfactory to the beneficiary thereof, and cause such beneficiary to return the original letters of credit to Seller or the relevant Affiliate of Seller (other than the Companies, the Company Subsidiaries, Interco, Holdco or Newco); provided that in the event Purchaser is unable to replace any letter of credit referred to above by such time, Purchaser (i) shall unconditionally reimburse Seller or the relevant Affiliate of Seller for any payments required to be made by Seller or any Affiliate of Seller in relation to any drawing of such letter of credit and any fees incurred to the issuer of such letter of credit and (ii) continue to use its reasonable best efforts to replace such letters of credit as soon as practicable.

The agreements listed on Section 5.13(b) of the Seller Disclosure Letter (the "Surviving Agreements") shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with their terms. This covenant is intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, CBS and its Affiliates as if such Persons were parties hereto.

. If requested by Purchaser, Seller agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to provide to the Purchaser Updated Title Commitments and Updated Surveys to the Owned Real Property located in the United States and the Great America Real Property, as soon as practicable; provided that in no event shall the receipt of any such Updated Title Commitments and Updated Surveys be a condition to or delay the Closing.

Noncompetition; Nonsolicitation of Senior Employees

. For a period of three years from the Closing Date (the "Exclusive Period"), CBS and Seller shall not and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries not to, directly or indirectly engage in, operate, manage, consult with, advise, partner with, lease or license any assets or provide financing to or invest in any Person that develops, owns or operates an amusement or theme park within 500 miles of any facility listed in Section 5.15 of the Seller Disclosure Letter (the "Business"); provided, however, that the foregoing will not prohibit (i) the ownership of less than five percent interest in a Person whose shares are traded in a recognized stock exchange or traded in an over-the-counter market, or (ii) the ownership of, or by, a Business as a result of a merger, acquisition, consolidation or other business combination with a Person whose primary business is not the Business.

For a period of two years from the Closing Date, CBS and Seller shall not and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries not to (i) solicit, entice, persuade or induce any of the senior employees of any of the Companies, Company Subsidiaries or the Canadian Parks Business whose aggregate annual compensation is in excess of $75,000 to terminate his or her employment; (ii) solicit the employment of any such individual; or (iii) hire or engage, as an officer, employee, consultant, independent contractor or otherwise, any such individual, in each case without the prior written consent of Purchaser. Nothing in this Section 5.15(b) shall prohibit any of the foregoing activities with respect to any individual who has been terminated by any of the Companies or Company Subsidiaries or the Canadian Parks Business without cause or who has not been employed by any of the Companies, the Company Subsidiaries, Interco, Holdco or Newco during the 90 days preceding any of such action by CBS, Seller or its Subsidiaries after such individual's resignation if neither Seller nor any of its Affiliates has induced or attempted to induce such officer or employee to leave the employ of such entity at any time prior to such termination or resignation, and provided further that nothing in this Section 5.15 shall prohibit Seller or any of its Affiliates from engaging in general solicitations of employment to the public, general advertising or the use of an independent employment agency or search firm whose efforts are not specifically directed at any such employee of any of the Companies, the Company Subsidiaries, Interco, Holdco or Newco.
The length of time for which any covenant contained in Sections 5.15(a) and (b) shall be in force shall not include any period of violation or any other period required for litigation during which Purchaser seeks to enforce such covenant. In the event that any such covenant shall be determined by any court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable by reason of its extending for too long a period of time or over too large a geographical area or by reason of its being too extensive in any other respect, it shall be interpreted to extend only over the longest period of time for which it may be enforceable, and/or over the largest geographical area as to which it may be enforceable and/or to the maximum extent in all other respects as to which it may be enforceable, all as determined by such court in such action.
The covenants contained in Section 5.15(a) and (b) are each covenants independent of any other provision of this Agreement, and the existence of any claim which any party may allege against any other party to this Agreement, whether based on this Agreement or otherwise, shall not prevent the enforcement of these covenants. CBS and Seller acknowledge that Purchaser is purchasing the Paramount Parks Shares in reliance on the goodwill of the Business and the covenants contained in Section 5.15(a) and (b) are essential to the protection of Purchaser's purchase and that Purchaser would not purchase the Paramount Parks Shares but for these covenants. CBS and Seller (i) acknowledge and agree that the monetary damages for any material breach of Section 5.15(a) and (b) would be inadequate, and (ii) agree and consent that without intending to limit any additional remedies that may be available, temporary and permanent injunctive and other equitable relief may be granted in any Action that may be brought to enforce any of the provisions of Section 5.15(a) and (b).

Seller immediately shall cease and cause to be terminated all existing discussions, conversations, negotiations and other communications with any Persons conducted heretofore with respect to any of the foregoing. Seller shall notify Purchaser promptly if any such proposal or offer, or any inquiry or other contact with any Person with respect thereto, is made. Seller agrees not to, and to cause CBS not to, without the prior written consent of Parent, release any Person from, or waive any provision of, any confidentiality agreement to which Seller or CBS is a party.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, subject to applicable law, nothing in this Agreement shall be interpreted to or will in any way guarantee employment or otherwise change the existing at-will nature of any employee's employment relationship.

Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Article VI or in connection with the Permitted Reorganization, (x) Purchaser and its Subsidiaries and ERISA Affiliates shall not assume any obligations under or liabilities with respect to, and shall not receive any right or interest in, any of the Benefit Plans (other than the Company Plans), and (y) Seller shall retain, assume, and be responsible for all liabilities and obligations relating to the participation through the Closing Date of the Covered Employees under (1) the CBS Retirement Plan and the other defined benefit plans of Seller and its respective ERISA Affiliates (other than the Company Plans) and (2) all other Benefit Plans (other than the Company Plans).

The Purchaser or the Companies or the Company Subsidiaries, as applicable, shall indemnify and hold the Seller and its respective Affiliates harmless from any and all damages incurred by the Seller or any of its Affiliates as a result of the failure of the Purchaser or the Companies or the Company Subsidiaries, as applicable, to comply with the requirements of COBRA where such requirement arises on or after the Closing Date, including applicable notice requirements. The Seller shall indemnify and hold the Purchaser, the Company, the Company Subsidiaries and their respective Affiliates harmless from any and all damages incurred by any of them as a result of the failure of the Seller, the Company or the Company Subsidiaries, as applicable, to comply with the requirements of COBRA with respect to COBRA qualifying events that occur before the Closing Date, including applicable notice requirements.
Effective as of the Closing Date, the Covered Employees shall cease to accrue benefits under, and the Companies and the Company Subsidiaries shall cease to be participating employers in, the defined contribution plans (both qualified and non-qualified) of the Seller and its respective Affiliates in which they participate. As of the Closing Date, Seller shall cause the participation by Covered Employees in the CBS 401(k) Plan (the "Seller 401(k) Plan") to cease. Purchaser shall cause a 401(k) Plan designated by Purchaser (the "Purchaser 401(k) Plan") to accept the rollover, by direct or indirect rollover, as selected by each Covered Employee, of that portion of the Covered Employees' accounts in the Seller 401(k) Plan that constitutes an "eligible rollover distribution" as that term is defined by Section 402(c)(4) of the Code, provided that at the time a Covered Employee elects such a rollover that Covered Employee is employed by the Companies or any Company Subsidiary. Any such rollover will be effected in cash and, as applicable, any notes evidencing loans from the Seller 401(k) Plan to the Covered Employee electing such rollover. Purchaser and Seller will, and will cause the trustees of their respective 401(k) plans to, cooperate with each other with respect to the rollover of the eligible rollover distribution portions, including loans, of the Covered Employees' account balances in the Seller 401(k) Plan to the Purchaser 401(k) Plan.
Effective as of the Closing Date, the Covered Employees shall cease to accrue benefits under, and the Companies and the Company Subsidiaries shall cease to be participating employers in, the defined benefit plans (both qualified and non-qualified) of the Seller and its respective Affiliates in which they participate. As of the Closing Date, Seller shall cause the participation by Covered Employees in the CBS Retirement Plan to cease.
In addition to the obligations of the Purchaser or the Companies and the Company Subsidiaries, as applicable, set forth in Section 6.1(a), immediately after the Closing Date, Purchaser agrees that, for a period of twelve (12) months following the Closing Date, the Purchaser or the Companies and the Company Subsidiaries, as applicable, shall provide each Covered Employee who is terminated by the Companies or the Company Subsidiaries "without cause" with severance benefits, which benefits shall be the greater of (i) the benefits provided under any severance plan maintained by the Purchaser or the Companies or the Company Subsidiaries, as applicable, for similarly situated employees of the Purchaser or the Companies or the Company Subsidiaries, as applicable, or (ii) the benefits provided under the Severance Policy for Full-Time Regular Employees of Paramount Parks as in effect immediately prior to the Closing Date.
Section 6.1(c)(ii) and Sections 6.1(d) through (g) do not apply to (x) Covered Employees who participate in the Benefit Plans that apply only to Canadian Business Employees (the "Canadian Benefit Plans") prior to the Closing Date or (y) the Canadian Benefit Plans. In connection with the Permitted Reorganization, Canadian Business Employees shall cease to accrue benefits under the Pension Plan for Salaried Employees of CBS International Canada Ltd. and Affiliates Companies (the "CICL Plan") and Newco shall:

establish a defined contribution registered pension plan to provide benefits to Canadian Business Employees on and after the Closing Date (the "Purchaser Pension Plan"); and
indemnify CBS Canada and/or the CICL Plan if any actions taken by Newco in the three (3) year period following the Closing Date in respect of the Purchaser Pension Plan or the Canadian Business Employees results in a partial wind-up of the CICL Plan. Newco shall indemnify CBS Canada and/or the CICL Plan for expenses associated with the partial wind-up of the CICL Plan, as well as the amount by which the total assets distributed from the CICL Plan in relation to such a partial plan wind-up exceeds the total amount of assets that would be distributed from the CICL Plan if the Canadian Business Employees terminated participation in the CICL Plan as of the partial wind-up date assuming there had been no partial wind-up of the CICL Plan.

TAX MATTERS

Tax Indemnities

Seller shall be responsible for and shall indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser from and against, and shall pay or cause to be paid, any Losses arising from or relating to (i) any and all liability for Taxes with respect to the Companies, the Company Subsidiaries, the Canadian Parks Business, Holdco, Newco and Interco for all taxable periods ending on or before the Closing Date ("Pre-Closing Tax Period") and with respect to any taxable period that begins on or before and ends after the Closing Date ("Straddle Period"), for the portion thereof ending on the Closing Date, (ii) any Taxes that arise from the Permitted Reorganization, (iii) any and all liability (as a result of Treasury Regulations section 1.1502-6 or a similar provision under state, local or foreign law) for Taxes of any Person (other than the Companies or the Company Subsidiaries) which is or was affiliated with the Companies or the Company Subsidiaries or with whom the Companies or the Company Subsidiaries otherwise join or have ever joined in filing any consolidated, combined, unitary or aggregate Tax Return, prior to the Closing Date, (iv) any Tax sharing, Tax indemnity, Tax allocation or similar contracts to which the Companies, the Company Subsidiaries, Holdco and Newco were obligated, or were a party, on or prior to the Closing Date, and (v) all liability for Taxes resulting from the Section 338(h)(10) Election (defined below) contemplated by Section 7.8; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, Seller shall not be liable for Taxes owing by Newco (or any successor thereof) in respect of any period after the Closing Date and attributable to the fact that the Canadian Parks Business will be transferred on a tax deferred basis, rather than on a fully taxable basis, for Canadian income tax purposes; provided, further, notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall not be liable pursuant to this Section 7.1(a) for any Losses arising from or relating to (i) any transaction not in the ordinary course of business (other than the transactions contemplated hereunder) that occurs on the Closing Date but after the Closing or (ii) any action taken after the Closing (other than the transactions contemplated hereunder) by the Purchaser, any of its Affiliates, the Companies, the Company Subsidiaries, Holdco, Newco or any transferee of the foregoing or its Affiliates or (iii) to the extent such Tax liabilities are reflected in the Adjusted Working Capital Amount in the Final Adjustment Report.
Purchaser shall be responsible for and shall indemnify and hold harmless Seller and its Affiliates from and against, and shall pay or cause to be paid, all Taxes relating to the Companies, the Company Subsidiaries, the Canadian Parks Business, Holdco, Newco and Interco, excluding Taxes for which Seller is responsible under Section 7.1(a).
In the case of any Straddle Period, the amount of Taxes allocable to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date shall be deemed to be:

in the case of Taxes imposed on a periodic basis (such as real or personal property Taxes), the amount of such Taxes for the entire period (or, in the case of such Taxes determined on an arrears basis, the amount of such Taxes for the immediately preceding period) multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of calendar days in the Straddle Period ending on and including the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire relevant Straddle Period; and
in the case of Taxes not described in (i) above (such as franchise Taxes, Taxes that are based upon or related to income or receipts, based upon occupancy or imposed in connection with any sale or other transfer or assignment of property (real or personal, tangible or intangible)), the amount of any such Taxes shall be determined as if such taxable period ended as of the close of business on the Closing Date.

The amount of any indemnification payment under Sections 7.1 and 7.2 shall be reduced by any net Tax benefit actually realized by the indemnified party arising from the Loss giving rise to such indemnification obligation.

Reimbursement

. After the Closing, Seller or Purchaser (each a "party"), as the case may be, shall provide or shall cause to be provided reimbursement for any Taxes paid by one party or its Affiliates which are the responsibility of the other party or its Affiliates in accordance with the terms of this Section 7.1 or Section 7.6. Within a reasonable time prior to the payment of any such Taxes, the indemnified party paying such Taxes shall give written notice to the indemnifying party of the Taxes payable and the amount which is the liability of each party, although failure to do so will not relieve the indemnifying party of its liability hereunder except to the extent the indemnifying party is actually prejudiced as a result of such failure. Subject to the delivery of prior written notice of the payment of any such Taxes, the party required to provide reimbursement hereunder shall pay such amount by the latest to occur of (i) the date payment is made by the party paying such Taxes, (ii) fifteen Business Days after receipt of such prior written notice, and (iii) 10 days prior to the due date for payment of such Taxes; provided, however, if there is a disagreement relating to the amount of Taxes payable by the indemnifying party, such disagreement will be resolved in the time and manner described in Section 7.4(f).

Tax Returns

Seller shall prepare or cause to be prepared, and file or cause to be filed, all Tax Returns relating to the Companies, the Company Subsidiaries, the Canadian Parks Business, Holdco, Newco (including any predecessor of Newco) and Interco for any Pre-Closing Tax Period.
The Purchaser shall prepare or cause to be prepared, and file or cause to be filed, all Tax Returns relating to the Companies, the Company Subsidiaries, and the Canadian Parks Business, Holdco, Newco and Interco for any taxable period beginning after the Closing Date.
For any Straddle Period relating to the Companies, the Company Subsidiaries, or with respect to the Canadian Parks Business, Holdco, Newco and Interco, Purchaser shall timely prepare or cause to be prepared, and file or cause to be filed, all Tax Returns required to be filed and shall pay all Taxes due with respect to such Tax Returns; provided that Seller shall reimburse Purchaser for the portion of such Taxes payable by Seller as provided in Sections 7.1 and 7.2. Purchaser shall provide such Tax Returns to Seller at least 30 days prior to filing for Seller's review, comment and approval (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), and shall modify such Tax Returns to incorporate reasonable comments made by Seller.
Without the prior written consent of Seller, Purchaser shall not, and shall not permit any of its Affiliates to, amend any Tax Returns or make or change any Tax elections or accounting methods relating to any Pre-Closing Tax Period of the Companies, the Company Subsidiaries, the Canadian Parks Business, Holdco, Newco and Interco.

Contests and Cooperation; Disputes

If a claim shall be made by any Taxing Authority, which, if successful, might result in an indemnity payment to an indemnified party pursuant to Section 7.1 or Section 9.2 (as it relates to Section 3.18), then such indemnified party shall give notice within twenty (20) days to the indemnifying party in writing of such claim and of any counterclaim the indemnified party proposes to assert (a "Tax Claim"); provided, however, the failure to give such notice shall not affect the indemnification provided hereunder except to the extent the indemnifying party has been materially prejudiced as a result of such failure.
With respect to any Tax Claim for which Seller is obligated to indemnify the Purchaser under Section 7.1(a) or Section 9.2 (as it relates to Section 3.18) and has acknowledged its obligation to Purchaser in writing, Seller shall, at its own cost and expense, control all proceedings and may make all decisions taken in connection with such Tax Claim (including selection of counsel) and, without limiting the foregoing, may in its sole discretion pursue or forego any and all administrative appeals, proceedings, hearings and conferences with any taxing authority with respect thereto, and may, in their sole discretion, either pay the Tax claimed and xxx for a refund where applicable law permits such refund suits or contest the Tax Claim in any permissible manner; provided, however, that Seller shall not settle any such Tax Claim without the prior consent of Purchaser (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) if such settlement would have the effect of shifting a material amount of income from a Pre-Closing Tax Period to a taxable period beginning after the Closing Date.
The Purchaser shall control all proceedings with respect to any Tax Claim with respect to the Companies, the Company Subsidiaries, the Canadian Parks Business, Holdco, Newco or Interco for which the Purchaser is obligated to indemnify Seller under Section 7.1(b).
Notwithstanding Section 7.4(b) and 7.4(c), Seller and Purchaser shall jointly control and participate in all proceedings taken in connection with any Tax Claim relating to Taxes of the Companies, the Company Subsidiaries, Holdco, Newco and Interco for a Straddle Period, and shall bear their own respective costs and expenses. Neither Seller nor Buyer shall settle any such Tax Claim without the prior written consent of the other.
Seller, Purchaser, the Companies, the Company Subsidiaries, Holdco, Newco and Interco shall reasonably cooperate, and shall cause their respective Affiliates, officers, employees, agents, auditors and other representatives to reasonably cooperate, in preparing and filing all Tax Returns and in resolving all disputes and audits with respect to all taxable periods relating to Taxes, including by maintaining and making available to each other all records necessary in connection with Taxes and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information or explanation of any material provided hereunder or to testify at proceedings relating to such Tax Claim. Any information obtained under this Section 7.4(e) shall be kept confidential, except as may be otherwise necessary in connection with the filing of returns or claims for refund or in conducting an audit or other proceeding.
If the parties disagree as to the calculation of any amount relating to Taxes governed by Section 7.1 or Section 7.6, Seller and Purchaser shall promptly consult with each other and endeavor in good faith, for a period of 30 days, to resolve any such disagreements (each disagreement not so resolved, a "Tax Dispute"). Thereafter, either Seller or Purchaser may submit the resolution of any Tax Disputes to the Accounting Firm (as defined in Section 2.3(b)) to resolve the dispute. The Accounting Firm shall only be authorized as directed by the parties on any one issue either (i) to decide in favor of and choose the position of either of the parties or (ii) to decide upon a compromise position within the range of positions presented by the parties to the Accounting Firm. The Accounting Firm shall base its decision solely upon the presentations of the parties to the Accounting Firm at a hearing held before the Accounting Firm and upon any materials made available by either party and not upon independent review. The Accounting Firm shall be instructed to resolve the Tax Disputes and such resolution shall be (i) set forth in writing and signed by the Accounting Firm, (ii) delivered to Seller and Purchaser as soon as practicable after the Tax Disputes are submitted to the Accounting Firm but not later than the 30th day after the Accounting Firm is instructed to resolve the Tax Disputes, (iii) made in accordance with this Agreement, and (iv) final, binding and conclusive on the parties on the date of delivery of such resolution. Any expenses relating to the engagement of the Accounting Firm shall be shared equally by the parties.

Refunds and Tax Benefits

The amount or economic benefit of any refunds, credits or offsets of Taxes of the Companies, the Company Subsidiaries, Holdco, Newco or Interco or with respect to the Canadian Parks Business that are the responsibility of Seller under Section 7.1, Section 9.2 (as it relates to Section 3.18), or Section 7.6 shall be for the account of Seller, except to the extent such amounts are reflected in the Adjusted Working Capital Amount in the Final Adjustment Report.
The amount or economic benefit of any other refunds, credits or offsets of Taxes of the Companies, the Company Subsidiaries, Holdco, Newco or Interco, or with respect to the Canadian Parks Business, shall be for the account of Purchaser.
Each party shall forward, and shall cause its Affiliates to forward, to the party entitled to receive the amount or economic benefit of a refund, credit or offset of Taxes the amount of such refund, or the economic benefit of such credit or offset of Taxes, within ten (10) days after such refund is received or after such credit or offset is allowed or applied against another Tax liability, as the case may be.

Transfer Taxes

. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, all Transfer Taxes arising out of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (other than any Transfer Taxes arising out of the Permitted Reorganization which shall solely be borne by Seller) shall be shared equally by Seller and Purchaser. Seller and Purchaser shall jointly prepare all Tax Returns relating to such Transfer Taxes. Purchaser shall file, or shall cause to be filed, to the extent permitted by applicable law, all Tax Returns as may be required to comply with the provisions of such Tax Laws relating to Transfer Taxes. Seller shall cooperate with Purchaser in connection with all such filings and shall file any Tax Returns that Purchaser is not permitted to file.

Tax Sharing Agreements

. On or prior to the Closing Date, all tax sharing, tax allocation or similar agreements between any of the Companies, the Company Subsidiaries, Holdco, Newco or Interco on the one hand, and any of Seller or its Affiliates (other than the Companies, the Company Subsidiaries, Holdco, Newco or Interco), on the other hand, shall be terminated, and, after the Closing, none of the Companies, the Company Subsidiaries, Holdco, Newco, Interco, Seller, the Purchaser or any Affiliates of the foregoing shall be bound thereby or have any obligations or liability thereunder.

Section 338(h)(10) Election

. At Purchaser's option, Purchaser and Seller shall join in timely making an election under section 338(h)(10) of the Code (and any corresponding elections under state, local, or foreign tax law) (collectively, a "Section 338(h)(10) Election") with respect to the purchase and sale of Paramount Parks and, if such election is made, at Purchaser's option, with respect to Paramount Parks Experience, Inc. and Interco (if applicable); provided, for the avoidance of doubt, that no such election shall be made with respect to Kings Island. Purchaser and Seller shall cooperate in the completion and timely filing of such elections in accordance with the provisions of Treasury Regulations section 1.338(h)(10)-1 (or any comparable provisions of state, local or foreign Tax law) or any successor provision. Seller and Purchaser agree not to take any action that could cause the Section 338(h)(10) Election to be invalid, and shall take no position contrary thereto unless required pursuant to a final determination (as defined in Section 1313(a) of the Code or any similar provision of any state, foreign or local law). Within ninety (90) days following the Closing Date, Purchaser shall prepare and deliver to Seller a draft schedule allocating the "aggregate deemed sales price," within the meaning of the Treasury regulations issued under Section 338(h)(10), among the assets of Paramount Parks and Paramount Parks Experience, Inc. in accordance with such regulations. Within forty-five (45) days of its receipt of such draft allocation schedule, Seller shall provide Purchaser with a written notice of any proposed changes thereto, together with a detailed explanation of the basis for such proposed changes. In the event that the Parties cannot agree on an allocation schedule within sixty (60) days after Purchaser's receipt of Seller's notice of proposed changes, the dispute shall be referred to the Accounting Firm. The allocation determined by the Accounting Firm shall be conclusive and binding upon Purchaser and Seller, and each party shall file its Tax Returns in accordance with such allocation schedule. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the allocation under this Section 7.8 to Interco shall be consistent with the determination of "Fair Market Value," as provided under Schedule III.

Tax Treatment of Indemnity Payments

. The parties agree to treat any indemnity payment made under this Article VII or Article IX as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for all federal, state, local and foreign Tax purposes, and the parties agree to, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, file their Tax Returns accordingly.

The representations and warranties contained in this Agreement shall expire on December 31, 2007; provided, however, that (a) the representations and warranties contained in Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.5, 3.20, 3.21(a) (first sentence only), 3.22, 4.1, 4.2 and 4.7 shall survive indefinitely, (b) the representations and warranties contained in Section 3.17 shall expire on the third anniversary of the Closing Date, and (c) the representations and warranties contained in Section 3.13 shall survive until the date that is 60 days following the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations. If written notice of a claim has been given in accordance with Section 9.2(c) prior to the expiration of the applicable representations and warranties, then the relevant representations and warranties shall survive as to such claim, until such claim has been finally resolved. Any written claim by Parent or Purchaser with respect to a breach of any covenant or other agreement made by the Seller in this Agreement to be performed at or prior to the Closing may be given at any time prior to the day that is three months following the Closing Date. All other covenants shall survive the Closing and survive indefinitely, except those that by their terms expire earlier.

Indemnification

. Purchaser and its Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents, successors and assigns shall be indemnified and held harmless by Seller for any and all Liabilities, Taxes (solely with respect to Section 3.18), losses, damages, claims, costs and expenses, interest, awards, judgments and penalties (including, reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) actually suffered or incurred by them (hereinafter a "Loss"), arising out of or resulting from:

the breach of any representation or warranty made by Seller in this Agreement;
the breach of any covenant or agreement by Sellers contained in this Agreement which is to be performed prior to the Closing; or
any of the Actions set forth in Section 9.2(a)(iii) of the Seller Disclosure Letter (the "Assumed Litigation") (each of which shall be treated as a Third Party Claim for purposes of Article IX (other than Section 9.3)).

The foregoing provisions of this Section 9.2(a) shall not apply with respect to any Losses arising out of (and no indemnification hereunder shall be available with respect to) any breach of any representation or warranty of Sellers that is terminated as provided in Section 9.1.

Seller and its Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents, successors and assigns shall be indemnified and held harmless by Purchaser for any and all Losses arising out of or resulting from:

the breach of any representation or warranty made by Purchaser in this Agreement;
the breach of any covenant or agreement by Purchaser contained in this Agreement which is to be performed prior to the Closing; or
the Liabilities of the Companies and the Company Subsidiaries, except to the extent that they arise from a matter for which indemnification is due under Section 9.2(a).

The foregoing provisions of this Section 9.2(b) shall not apply with respect to any Losses arising out of (and no indemnification hereunder shall be available with respect to) any breach of any representation or warranty of Purchaser that is terminated as provided in Section 9.1.

Any party seeking indemnification under this Section 9.2 (an "Indemnified Party") shall promptly give the party from whom indemnification is being sought (an "Indemnifying Party") notice (a "Claim Notice") of any matter which such Indemnified Party has determined has given or could reasonably be expected to give rise to a right of indemnification under this Agreement, within 60 days of such determination, stating in reasonable detail, the nature of the claim, a good-faith reasonable estimate of the Loss and method of computation thereof (to the extent practicable), and containing a reference to the provisions of this Agreement in respect of which such right of indemnification is claimed or arises; provided, however, that the failure to provide such notice shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under Section 9.2 except to the extent the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure. With respect to any recovery or indemnification sought by an Indemnified Party from the Indemnifying Party that does not involve a Third-Party Claim (as defined below), if the Indemnifying Party does not notify the Indemnified Party within 30 days from its receipt of the Claim Notice that the Indemnifying Party disputes such claim (the "Dispute Notice"), the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have accepted and agreed with such claim. If the Indemnifying Party has disputed a claim for indemnification (including any Third-Party Claim), the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall proceed in good faith to negotiate a resolution to such dispute. If the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party cannot resolve such dispute in 30 days after delivery of the Dispute Notice, such dispute shall be resolved by litigation in an appropriate court of law.
The obligations and Liabilities of an Indemnifying Party under Section 9.2 with respect to Losses arising from claims of any third party which are subject to the indemnification provided for in Section 9.2 ("Third Party Claims") shall be governed by and contingent upon the following additional terms and conditions: if an Indemnified Party shall receive notice of any Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party notice of such Third Party Claim within 30 days of the receipt by the Indemnified Party of such notice and a copy of the papers served with respect to such claim (if any); provided, however, that the failure to provide such notice shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under Section 9.2 except to the extent the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure. If the Indemnifying Party acknowledges in writing its obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party hereunder against any Losses that may result from such Third Party Claim, then the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to assume and control the defense of such Third Party Claim at its expense and through counsel of its choice reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party if it gives notice of its intention to do so to the Indemnified Party within twenty Business Days of the receipt of such notice from the Indemnified Party; provided, however, the Indemnified Party may, at its sole cost and expense, participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim, it being understood that the Indemnifying Party shall control such defense; provided, further, that if counsel to the Indemnified Party advises such Indemnified Party in writing that the Third Party Claim involves a conflict of interest (other than one of a monetary nature) that would make it inappropriate for the same counsel to represent both the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party, then the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to retain its own counsel at the cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party (except that the Indemnifying Party shall not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one separate counsel for all Indemnified Parties, taken together). In the event the Indemnifying Party exercises the right to undertake any such defense against any such Third Party Claim as provided above, it will keep the Indemnified Party reasonably informed of progress of the defense of such Third Party Claim, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in such defense and make available to the Indemnifying Party, 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. Similarly, in the event the Indemnified Party is, directly or indirectly, conducting the defense against any such Third Party Claim, it will keep the Indemnifying Party reasonably informed of progress of the defense of such Third Party Claim, and the Indemnifying Party shall cooperate with the Indemnified Party in such defense and make available to the Indemnified Party, all such witnesses, records, materials and information in the Indemnifying Party's possession or under the Indemnifying Party's control relating thereto as is reasonably required by the Indemnified Party. The rights of any Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated to any right of action (including indemnification, cross-claims and counterclaims) that the Indemnified Party may have against any other Person with respect to any matter giving rise to a claim for indemnification hereunder. The Indemnifying Party shall not, without the written consent of the Indemnified Party, (i) settle or compromise any Third Party Claim or consent to the entry of any judgment which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the delivery by the claimant or plaintiff to the Indemnified Party of a written release from all liability in respect of such Third Party Claim or (ii) settle or compromise any Third Party Claim in any manner that may adversely affect the Indemnified Party other than as a result of money damages or other money payments. Without limiting the foregoing, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any amount required to be paid by the Indemnified Party that exceeds, where the Indemnified Party has unreasonably withheld or delayed consent in connection with the proposed compromise or settlement of a Third Party Claim, the amount for which that Third Party Claim could have been settled pursuant to that proposed compromise or settlement. No Third Party Claim which is being defended in good faith by the Indemnifying Party in accordance with the terms of this Agreement shall be settled by the Indemnified Party without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party.
To the extent that the Purchaser can pursue a claim for a Loss relating to Taxes under either Section 7.1 or Section 9.2 (as it relates to a breach of Section 3.18), the provisions of Article VII shall govern with respect to such claim.

Limits on Indemnification

. No amount shall be payable by Seller pursuant to Section 9.2(a) for any breach of any representation or warranty (other than any representation or warranty in Section 3.2, 3.5, 3.20, 3.21(a) (first sentence only) or 3.22) unless the aggregate amount of Losses indemnifiable under Section 9.2(a) for breaches of representations or warranties exceeds one percent (1%) of the Purchase Price (and only to the extent of such excess). No amount shall be payable by Purchaser pursuant to Section 9.2(b) for any breach of any representation or warranty (other than any representation or warranty in Sections 4.2 or 4.7) unless the aggregate amount of Losses indemnifiable under Section 9.2(b) for breaches of representations or warranties exceeds one percent (1%) of the Purchase Price (and only to the extent of such excess).

No amount shall be payable by an Indemnifying Party pursuant to Section 9.2 for any breach of any representation or warranty resulting in aggregate Losses of $50,000 or less with respect to any matter or series of related matters and such Losses shall not be included in calculating the threshold established in Section 9.3(a).
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the maximum amount of aggregate indemnifiable Losses which may be recovered from Seller, on the one hand, or Purchaser, on the other hand, arising out of or resulting from the causes enumerated in Section 9.2 (excluding Section 9.2(b)(iii)) shall be an amount equal to twenty percent (20%) of the Purchase Price.
No Indemnifying Party shall be liable for any indirect, consequential, special, multiple, exemplary or punitive damages or lost profits, diminution in value or any damages based on any type of multiple of any Indemnified Party, except in the event of fraud or willful misconduct.
For purposes of determining the existence of, and calculating the amount of any losses arising out of or resulting from, any breach of a representation or warranty pursuant to Sections 9.2(a)(i) and 9.2(b)(i), the representations and warranties made by Seller or Purchaser in this Agreement, as applicable, shall be read without regard to any Material Adverse Effect or materiality qualifiers contained therein, except with respect to the representations and warranties made by Seller in Section 3.9.

Computation of Indemnifiable Losses

. Any amount payable pursuant to this Article IX shall be decreased to the extent of (i) any amounts actually recovered by the Indemnified Party from any third party (including insurance proceeds) in respect of an indemnifiable Loss, (ii) any net Tax benefit actually realized by the Indemnified Party arising out of an indemnifiable Loss and (iii) any amounts that relate to such Losses reflected in the Adjusted Working Capital Amount in the Final Adjustment Report. The Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Parties shall cooperate in good faith in providing each other the information necessary to determine the Tax benefits, as the case may be, in each case. The Indemnified Parties shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to pursue payment under or from any insurer or third-party in respect of such Losses. Purchaser shall not, and shall cause the Companies, the Company Subsidiaries, Interco, Holdco and Newco not to, without the prior written consent of the Seller, waive, release, compromise, reduce or otherwise amend in any way that would limit coverage, any fully-paid insurance policies or coverage in effect at the Closing that relate to Losses.
