(b) By Purchaser. Subject to Sections 6.9(d), (e) and (f), Purchaser shall indemnify, reimburse, and hold harmless Seller, its Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, successors and assigns from and against any and all Damages to the extent such Damages are incurred in connection with or arise out of (i) any breach of any covenant or agreement of Purchaser herein; (ii) the breach of any representation or warranty made by Purchaser in this Agreement; and (iii) any Assumed Liabilities; and (iv) the ownership or use of the Products and the other Purchased Assets following the Closing Date.

(c) Damages Net of Insurance. The failure of any Purchaser indemnified party to seek available insurance coverage or insurance proceeds for any Damages otherwise reimbursable by Section 6.9 shall not adversely affect such Purchaser indemnified party's rights to indemnification in respect thereof under Section 6.9. If, however, the Purchaser indemnified party receives insurance proceeds in respect of any such Damages, the amount of such insurance proceeds less any associated costs, including reasonable attorney fees, incurred in obtaining such proceeds, shall be excluded in determining the amount of Damages subject to an indemnification claim.

(d) Limitations.

(i) No Party will have Liability (for indemnification or otherwise) with respect to claims of breach of any representation, warranty or covenant, contained in this Agreement unless on or before the date that is six months following the Closing Date, the otherwise liable Party is notified by the other Party of a claim specifying the factual basis of that claim in reasonable detail to the extent then known, and in the case of liability of Seller, in respect of any claims made after the date that a liquidator is appointed for Seller as described in Section 6.1, such claims shall be subject to the provisions of the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) and other Applicable Laws applicable to the liquidation and dissolution of Seller. In addition, and notwithstanding anything set forth herein to the contrary, in no event shall a Party's liability for indemnification claims or other claims with respect to, or in connection with, a breach of a representation or warranty under Article IV or V or any other agreement or covenant contained in this Agreement exceed the Purchase Price, as adjusted pursuant to Section 3.1(b).

(ii) Except for claims based on Seller's fraud, no indemnified party shall be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Section 6.9 until the aggregate amount of all Damages suffered, incurred or paid by one or more indemnified parties exceeds $12,500 and thereafter to the extent that any Damages exceed $12,500.

(e) Procedure for Indemnification — Third Party Claims. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under Section 6.9(a) or 6.9(b) of notice of commencement of any proceeding against it by a third party (not a Party or Affiliate of a Party to this Agreement), such indemnified party will, if a claim is to be made against an indemnifying party under such Section, give notice to the indemnifying party of the commencement of such claim. If the indemnified party fails to notify the indemnifying party within 30 days of receipt of notice of the third party claim, then the indemnity with respect to the subject matter of such claim shall continue, but shall be limited to the damages that would have nonetheless resulted absent the indemnified party's failure to notify the indemnifying party in the time required above after taking into account such actions as could have been taken by the indemnifying party had it received timely notice from the indemnified party. If such notice is timely given, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in such proceeding and, to the extent that it wishes, may assume the defense of such proceeding with counsel satisfactory to the indemnified party and, after notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of such proceeding with counsel satisfactory to the indemnified party, the indemnifying party will not be liable to the indemnified party under this Section 6.9 for any fees of other counsel or any other expenses with respect to the defense of such proceeding incurred after such notice. If the indemnifying party assumes the defense of the proceeding, (1) it will be conclusively established that for purposes of this Agreement that the claims made in that proceeding are within the scope of and subject to indemnification; and (2) no compromise or settlement of such claims may be effected by the indemnifying party without the indemnified party's Consent unless (A) there is no finding or admission of any violation of legal requirements or any violation of the rights of any Person and no effect on any other claims that may be made against the indemnified party, and (B) the sole relief provided is monetary damages that are paid in full by the indemnifying party. If notice is given to an indemnifying party of the commencement of any proceeding and the indemnifying party does not, within 30 days after the indemnified party's notice is given, give notice to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of such proceeding, the indemnifying party will be bound by any determination made in such proceeding or any compromise or settlement effected by the indemnified party, provided, however, that the indemnifying party is otherwise obligated to indemnify the indemnified party pursuant to this Section 6.9.

(f) Procedure for Indemnification — Other Claims. A claim for indemnification for any matter not involving a third-party claim may be asserted by notice to the Party from whom indemnification is sought.

Section 6.10 Payment of Accounts Payable. Except for those amounts expressly enumerated in Schedule 1.3(e) (as may be updated by the Parties from time to time) as an unpaid accounts payable constituting Assumed Contracts, no later than concurrent with or as soon as reasonably practicable following the Closing, Seller shall pay (i) all of its accounts payable that are payable to Persons engaged in the manufacture, shipment or storage of the Inventory and (ii) any other payables which, if not paid, would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on Purchaser's conduct of the Business following the Closing.

Section 6.11 Consents. Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain for Purchaser all consents listed on Schedule 4.3.

Section 6.12 Financial Statements. Seller acknowledges that following the Closing Purchaser may seek to obtain an audit of the financial statements of the Business, at Purchaser's expense, for the year ended December 31, 2009 or such other periods as the Purchaser may reasonably require. Following the Closing, Seller will grant Purchaser and its selected accountant reasonable access to the files, books and records of Seller, including any and all information relating to the Business and Seller's financial condition, as are reasonably necessary to permit Purchaser to obtain such audit. Further, Seller will request its accountants, at Purchaser's expense, to cooperate reasonably with Purchaser and its accountant in making available all financial information reasonably requested, including the right to examine all working papers pertaining to all Financial Statements prepared by Seller's accountants. Subject to the Seller's intention to dissolve and liquidate following the completion of the sale of the Purchased Assets, Seller will also make available to Purchaser and its agents all management and other appropriate personnel during normal business hours, on reasonable prior notice.

(c) Seller acknowledges that the agreements contained in this Section 9.2 are an integral part of the Contemplated Transactions, and that, without these agreements, Purchaser would not enter into this Agreement. Accordingly, if Seller fails to pay in a timely manner the amounts due pursuant to this Section 9.2, and, in order to obtain such payment, Purchaser makes a claim that results in a judgment against Seller for the amounts set forth in this Section 9.2, Seller shall pay to Purchaser its reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) in connection with such suit, together with interest on the amounts set forth in this Section 9.2 at the United States prime rate in effect on the date such payment was required to be made (as published in the Wall Street Journal).
