Section 3.05. No Conflicts.

As of their respective filing or furnishing dates, the SEC Documents complied in all material respects with the requirements of the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act, the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, as the case may be, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, as applicable, to the respective SEC Documents, and, other than as corrected or clarified in a subsequent SEC Document prior to the date of this Agreement, none of the SEC Documents, at the time they were filed or furnished, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The information contained in the SEC Documents, considered as a whole and as amended as of the date hereof, do not as of the date hereof, and will not as of the Closing Date, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. There are no contracts, agreements, arrangements, transactions or documents which are required to be described or disclosed in the SEC Documents or to be filed as exhibits to the SEC Documents which have not been so described, disclosed or filed.

Section 3.11. Financial Statements. As of their respective dates, the financial statements of the Company included in the SEC Documents (the “Financial Statements”) complied as to form in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and the published rules and regulations of the SEC with respect thereto. The Financial Statements (including any related notes thereto) included or incorporated by reference in the SEC Documents fairly presented in all material respects the consolidated financial position of the Company as of the dates indicated therein and the consolidated results of its operations, cash flows and changes in shareholders’ equity for the periods specified therein. Such Financial Statements were prepared in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis (except (a) as may be otherwise indicated in such Financial Statements or the notes thereto, or (b) in the case of unaudited interim statements, to the extent they may exclude footnotes or may be condensed to summary statements).

Section 3.12. No Undisclosed Liabilities. There are no liabilities of the Company or any Subsidiary of any kind, whether accrued, contingent, absolute, determined, determinable or otherwise, and there is no existing condition, situation or set of circumstances which could reasonably be expected to result in such a liability, other than: (a) liabilities reflected on, reserved against, or disclosed in the Company’s unaudited consolidated balance sheet as of Xxxxx 00, 0000, (x) liabilities incurred since March 31, 2014 in the ordinary course of business and (c) any other undisclosed liabilities that are not material to the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole. There are no unconsolidated Subsidiaries of the Company or any off-balance sheet arrangements of any type (including any off-balance sheet arrangement required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 303(a)(4) of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Act) that have not been so described in the SEC Documents nor any obligations to enter into any such arrangements.

Section 3.13. Internal Controls and Procedures. The Company has established and maintains disclosure controls and procedures as such terms are defined in, and required by, Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15 under the Exchange Act. Except as may be disclosed in the SEC Documents, such disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that all material information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or furnishes under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. The Company maintains a system of internal controls over financial reporting sufficient to, except to the extent disclosed in the SEC Documents, provide reasonable assurance that (a) transactions are executed in accordance with management’s general or specific authorizations and (b) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP. Other than the material weakness in such internal controls over financial reporting disclosed in the SEC Documents, there are no such other material weaknesses in such system

of internal controls. To the knowledge of the Company, there is no reason that its chief executive officer and chief financial officer will not be able to give the certifications and attestations required pursuant to the rules and regulations adopted pursuant to Section 404 of the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act, without qualification, when next due.

Section 3.14. Absence of Changes. Except for the execution and performance of this Agreement and the discussions, negotiations and transactions related thereto, since March 31, 2014, the Company and its Subsidiaries have conducted their respective businesses in all material respects in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, there has not been any Material Adverse Effect.

Section 3.15. Contracts.

sought that was caused as a result of fraud or intentional misrepresentation shall survive indefinitely or until the latest date permitted by law.

Such notice shall set forth in reasonable detail such Third Party Claim and the basis for indemnification (taking into account the information then available to the Indemnified Party). The failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent such failure shall have actually materially and adversely prejudiced the Indemnifying Party.

(b) The Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of any Third Party Claim and, subject to the limitations set forth in this ‎Section 7.03, shall be entitled to control and appoint lead counsel (that is reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party) for such defense, in each case at its own expense; provided that prior to assuming control of such defense, the Indemnifying Party must (i) acknowledge in writing that it would have an indemnity obligation to the Indemnified Party for the Damages resulting from such Third Party Claim and (ii) furnish the Indemnified Party with reasonable evidence that the Indemnifying Party has adequate resources to defend the Third Party Claim and fulfill its indemnity obligations hereunder.

(c) The Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to assume or maintain control of the defense of any Third Party Claim and shall pay the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of counsel retained by the Indemnified Party if (i) the Indemnifying Party does not deliver the acknowledgment referred to in ‎Section 7.03(b) within thirty (30) days of receipt of notice of the Third Party Claim pursuant to ‎Section 7.03(a), (ii) the Third Party Claim relates to or arises in connection with any criminal proceeding, action, indictment, allegation or investigation, (iii) the Indemnified Party reasonably believes an adverse determination with respect to the Third Party Claim would be materially detrimental to the reputation or future business prospects of the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates, (iv) the Third Party Claim seeks an injunction or equitable relief against the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates or (v) the Indemnifying Party has failed or is failing to prosecute or defend the Third Party Claim vigorously and prudently.

(d) If the Indemnifying Party shall assume the control of the defense of any Third Party Claim in accordance with the provisions of ‎Section 7.03(c), the Indemnifying Party shall obtain the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which shall not be unreasonably withheld) before entering into any settlement of such Third Party Claim if the settlement does not expressly unconditionally release the Indemnified Party and its Affiliates from all liabilities and obligations with respect to such Third Party Claim or the settlement imposes injunctive or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates.

(e) In circumstances where the Indemnifying Party is controlling the defense of a Third Party Claim in accordance with ‎Section 7.03(c), the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of any Third Party Claim and to employ separate counsel of its choice for such purpose, in which case the fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel shall be borne by the Indemnified Party; provided that Indemnifying Party shall pay the fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel of the Indemnified Party if (i) incurred by the Indemnified Party prior to the date the Indemnifying Party assumes control of the defense of the Third Party Claim, (ii) if representation of both the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party by the same counsel would create a conflict of interest or (iii) the Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it which are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party.

(f) Each party shall reasonably cooperate, and cause their respective Affiliates to reasonably cooperate, in the defense or prosecution of any Third Party Claim.

Section 7.04. Direct Claim Procedures. In the event an Indemnified Party has a claim for indemnity under ‎Section 7.02 against the Indemnifying Party that does not involve a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party agrees to give notice in writing of such claim to the Indemnifying Party. Such notice shall set

forth in reasonable detail such claim and the basis for indemnification (taking into account the information then available to the Indemnified Party). The failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent such failure shall have actually materially and adversely prejudiced the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party does not notify the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) days following the receipt of a notice with respect to any such claim that the Indemnifying Party disputes its indemnity obligation to the Indemnified Party for any Damages with respect to such claim, such Damages shall be conclusively deemed a liability of the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnifying Party shall promptly pay to the Indemnified Party any and all Damages arising out of such claim. If the Indemnifying Party has timely disputed its indemnity obligation for any Damages with respect to such claim, the parties shall proceed in good faith to negotiate a resolution of such dispute and, if not resolved through such negotiations, such dispute shall be resolved by arbitration determined pursuant to ‎Section 9.06.
