The purchase price shall be allocated among the assets of the Company in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code. Sellers shall prepare and deliver to Purchaser an allocation schedule setting forth Sellers’ determination of the allocation (the “Allocation Schedule”) within ninety (90) days after the Execution Date. Purchaser shall have fifteen (15) days to review the Allocation Schedule and either notify Sellers that it is in agreement with such Allocation Schedule or deliver, in writing, any objections that it may have with respect thereto. If Purchaser notifies Sellers that it disagrees with any aspect of the Allocation Schedule, Purchaser and Sellers agree to work together in good faith to resolve any such disagreement. If any dispute regarding the Allocation Schedule remains unresolved after forty five (45) days following Sellers’ delivery of such Allocation Schedule to Purchaser, then such disagreement shall be immediately submitted to the Independent Accounting Firm, which shall be instructed to resolve such disagreement within thirty (30) days after such disagreement is submitted to it for resolution and shall notify the Purchaser and the Sellers in writing of its resolution. The Independent Accounting Firm’s resolution of the disagreement shall be final and binding on Purchaser and Sellers. Purchaser and Sellers shall in all respects and for all purposes report, act and file all Tax Returns (including, but not limited to, IRS Form 8594) in a manner consistent with the agreed upon or final Allocation Schedule and neither Purchaser nor Sellers shall take any position (whether in Tax Proceedings, Tax Returns, with respect to the transactions under the Asset Purchase Agreement (in the case of Purchaser) or otherwise) that is inconsistent with such Allocation Schedule unless required to do so by applicable Law. In the event the Purchase Price is adjusted pursuant to Section 2.06 or Article IX, Sellers shall promptly prepare and deliver to Purchaser an updated Allocation Schedule reflecting such adjustment, and any Purchaser disagreement with such adjustment shall be resolved in the same manner as a disagreement over the original Allocation Schedule. If incurred, any fees and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm shall be borne fifty percent (50%) by Purchaser and fifty percent (50%) by Sellers.

Section 6.03 Tax Matters.

(a) Tax Returns

(ii)       Seller Tax Returns. Each Seller shall cause to be included in the federal income Tax Returns (and to the extent permissible state income Tax Returns) that include the income and activities of such Seller all items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit or other items of the Company through the Closing Date and shall be responsible for the timely payment (and entitled to any refund) of all Taxes due with respect to the periods covered by such Tax Returns.

Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon a Party’s request) the provision of records and information which are reasonably relevant to any such Tax Proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder.

(c)       Transfer Taxes. Purchaser shall file all Tax Returns required to be filed to report Transfer Taxes imposed on or with respect to the purchase and sale of the Interests pursuant to this Agreement. In the event that any Transfer Taxes (but, for the avoidance of doubt, not any Taxes based on or measured by income) are deemed to be payable in connection with the sale of the Interests, all such Transfer Taxes shall be borne one-half by Sellers and one-half by Purchaser. Accordingly, if Purchaser is required by law to pay any such Transfer Taxes, Sellers shall promptly reimburse Purchaser for one-half of the amount of such Transfer Taxes actually paid by Purchaser; if Sellers are required by law to pay any such Transfer Taxes, Purchaser shall

-26-

promptly reimburse Sellers for one-half of the amount of such Transfer Taxes actually paid by Sellers. Sellers and Purchaser shall timely file any Transfer Tax Returns as required by law and shall notify the other when such filings have been made. Sellers and Purchaser shall cooperate and consult with each other prior to filing such Transfer Tax Returns to ensure that all such Tax Returns are filed in a consistent manner.

(e)       Sellers shall be responsible for the payment of all ad valorem real estate taxes and assessments assessed against the Owned Real Property and all special assessments against the Owned Real Property, for the years prior to the year of the Closing. Ad valorem real estate taxes for the year of the Closing shall be prorated between Sellers and Purchaser, with the Sellers being responsible for the period to the date of the Closing. If the actual amount of ad valorem taxes for the year of the Closing cannot be determined at the Closing, the proration shall be based on a reasonable estimate of the taxes for such year as agreed to by the Parties or, failing such agreement, the proration shall be made when the actual tax amount is determined for the year of Closing.

(f)        Sellers shall be responsible for the payment of all ad valorem taxes and assessments assessed against the Company’s personal property for the years prior to the year of the Closing. Ad valorem personal property taxes for the year of the Closing shall be prorated between Sellers and Purchaser, with the Sellers being responsible for the period to the date of the Closing. If the actual amount of ad valorem taxes for the year of the Closing cannot be determined at the Closing, the proration shall be based on a reasonable estimate of the taxes for such year as agreed to by the Parties or, failing such agreement, the proration shall be made when the actual tax amount is determined for the year of Closing.

Section 6.04    Public Announcements. Sellers and Purchaser will consult with each other before issuing, and provide each other a reasonable opportunity to review and make reasonable comment upon, any press release or making any public statement with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and, except as may be required by applicable Law or any listing agreement with a national securities exchange or quotation system, will not issue any such press release or make any such public statement prior to such consultation.

Each of the Parties shall request expedited treatment of any such filings. Purchaser and each Seller shall (A) respond as promptly as practicable to any inquiries or requests received from any Governmental Authority for additional information or documentation, and (B) not enter into any agreement with any Governmental Authority to not to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, except with the prior consent of the other Party (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned).

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, each Party agrees not to oppose, obstruct or otherwise interfere with in any manner whatsoever the efforts of the other Party to obtain clearance or approval required by any Governmental Authority or applicable Law, in each case, with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(c)       Prior to filing any application, form or report required by FERC or the OCC with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, Purchaser and Sellers, as the case may be, shall provide each other a copy of such proposed filing for their review; provided that the Parties shall cooperate in the preparation of, and have the joint right to approve any such application, form or report that must be submitted jointly by the Sellers and Purchaser prior to filing.

Section 6.09 Employee and Benefit Matters.

(a)       On Purchaser’s request, Sellers shall use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly provide to Purchaser, information regarding the employees employed by the Operator at the Facility sufficient for Purchaser to have a reasonable basis to determine whether Purchaser wishes to offer such employees competitive terms of employment, subject to any limitations imposed by applicable Laws. Prior to the Closing Date Purchaser, or its designee, shall interview all employees employed by Operator to perform services at the Facility, who are “actively at work” as of the Execution Date (for purposes of this Section 6.09, an employee is not “actively at work” if the employee is receiving long-term disability benefits under any plan or program established or maintained by the Operator for any reason including the employee having represented that he or she is unable to perform any work). Purchaser, or its designee, shall have the right, but not the obligation, to offer employment (effective as of the Closing Date) to any, all or none of the employees employed by Operator, at the Facility. Each offer of employment shall be made not less than sixty (60) days prior to the Closing Date and on terms and conditions determined by Purchaser in its sole discretion. Each such employee that accepts Purchaser’s offer of employment shall be referred to herein as an (“Affected Employee”).

(b)       Nothing in this Section 6.09 or elsewhere in this Agreement is intended to confer upon any Affected Employee or other employee of the Operator or any employee of the Company any rights of any kind whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement, including,

-29-

without limitation, any rights to or of employment for a specified period or any other form of employment security. Purchaser shall not assume any obligation or liability for employment practices or policies maintained by the Operator or the Company or any Affiliate of either with respect to employees thereof. Purchaser and its Affiliates shall not assume any Benefit Plan and shall have no liability or obligation with respect to the Benefit Plans. In addition, Purchaser shall have no obligation or liability nor incur any cost or expense with respect to any claims, whether arising before, on or after the Closing, by any employee or former employee, director or consultant of the Operator or of the Company or any Affiliate of either arising by reason of the sale or purchase of the Interests in the Company pursuant to this Agreement or by reason of such employee or former employee’s, director’s or consultant’s employment or service, or the termination of his or her employment or service, by or with the Operator or the Company or any Affiliate of either. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Operator shall honor and pay all unused vacation, holiday, sickness and personal days accrued prior to the consummation of the Closing by the Affected Employees under the policies and practices of the Operator.

Section 6.10    Resignation of Members, Managers, Officers and Directors. At Closing, Sellers shall cause the resignation of all officers and directors or similar persons on any board or operating, management or other committee established under the Company Charter Documents.

Section 6.11    Use of Certain Names. Within fifteen (15) days following the Closing, Purchaser shall cause the Company to cease using the word “Xxxxxx” and any word or expression similar thereto or constituting an abbreviation or extension thereof (the “Sellers’ Marks”), including eliminating the Sellers’ Marks from all assets of the Company and the disposing of any unused stationery and literature of the Company, and thereafter, Purchaser shall not, and shall cause the Company and the Facility not to, use the Sellers’ Marks or any logos, trademarks, trade names, patents or other Intellectual Property rights belonging to Sellers or any of their Affiliates, or which Sellers or any of their Affiliates have the right to use, and Purchaser acknowledges that it, its Affiliates, the Company and the Facility have no rights whatsoever to use such Intellectual Property.

Section 6.12    Support Obligations. At Closing, Purchaser shall effect the full and unconditional release of the Sellers and their Affiliates from any credit support obligations provided by Sellers or such Affiliates with respect to the Company, the Facility or the operation thereof, including the credit support obligations listed on Schedule 6.12.

Section 6.13    Termination of Certain Services, Contracts, Receivables and Payables. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, during the Interim Period, Sellers shall take such actions as may be necessary to terminate or sever as to the Company or the Facility (with appropriate mutual releases) upon the Closing any services jointly shared or used by any of the Company, the Facility and Sellers or any of their Affiliates, including joint Tax services, joint legal services and joint banking services (to include the severance of any centralized clearance accounts) and each Contract listed on Schedule 6.13.

Section 6.14    Insurance. Purchaser shall be solely responsible for providing insurance to the Company and the business of the Facility as of the Closing. Purchaser acknowledges that no insurance coverage or policy maintained for the Company or the Facility will extend beyond the Closing for the benefit of Purchaser. If before the Closing Date any damage or casualty loss shall

-30-

occur with respect to the Facility, and claims associated with such losses have or may be made against insurance policies maintained by Sellers or their Affiliates prior to the Closing or under policies otherwise retained by Sellers or their Affiliates after the Closing, in each case to recover amounts necessary to repair or replace the affected asset(s), then Sellers shall use commercially reasonable efforts so that Purchaser can file, notice, and otherwise pursue such claims and recover proceeds under the terms of such policies. Sellers or their Affiliates shall be reimbursed (or otherwise indemnified and held harmless) by Purchaser for any Losses or other costs incurred by the Sellers or their Affiliates and arising out of Purchaser’s pursuing such claims under any such insurance policies. If Sellers shall receive any such proceeds prior to Closing, Sellers shall, to the extent such proceeds are not, prior to Closing, applied to pay the costs associated with affecting the necessary repairs on replacements, pay such unused amounts to Purchaser or deduct such amounts from the purchase price.

Section 6.15    Title. Within fifteen (15) days after the Execution Date, Purchaser, at its sole cost and expense, shall have the right to order an ALTA title insurance report and commitment for an owner’s title insurance policy in respect of the Owned Real Property to be issued in the name of Purchaser, OMPA and GRDA. Within thirty (30) days after receipt of such title commitment, the Purchaser shall notify the Sellers of any matters contained in the title commitment that would constitute a Lien which is not a Permitted Lien. Purchaser’s failure to so notify Sellers shall be deemed a waiver by Purchaser of any right not to close by virtue of any matters shown on the title report which is not a Permitted Lien. Subject to the foregoing, as of the Closing, the commitment shall show good and marketable title of the Company to such Owned Real Property free and clear of all Liens, except for Permitted Liens or as approved by Purchaser.

Section 6.16    Consent Order. Sellers shall be solely responsible for any expenditures required to comply with the Consent Order or as a result of the application described in Paragraph 13.A of the Consent Order, including the cost of any emission monitoring or control equipment that may be required, to the extent such expenditures relate directly thereto.

Section 6.17    Asset Purchase Agreement. Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to enforce the Asset Purchase Agreement in accordance with its terms and conditions and applicable Laws, and shall not waive or amend any material term or condition without Sellers’ consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. In the event Purchaser recovers any damages due to the breach by another party to the Asset Purchase Agreement, Purchaser shall remit fifty percent (50%) of the amount of such damages to Sellers. For purposes of clarity, nothing herein shall be interpreted as allowing Sellers to have a claim against any other party to the Asset Purchase Agreement, nor making Sellers a third party beneficiary thereof or having any obligations or liability thereunder.

Section 6.18 Certain Operations Matters

(a)       As soon as practicable after the Execution Date, Sellers shall cause the Company to provide Purchaser with a schedule of planned maintenance for 2008 for the Facility. The monthly report furnished to Purchaser pursuant to Section 6.18(b) below shall include a summary of any maintenance activities performed for each relevant month.

(d)       During the Interim Period, Sellers shall, after the start of any Unit, use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the runtime of such Unit to be not less than 8 continuous hours, excluding ramp-up and ramp-down, and subject to technical or environmental limitations.

(e)       During the Interim Period, the Company shall operate the Facility in a manner materially consistent with the cumulative run hours and starts as set forth in Exhibit D unless otherwise consented to by Purchaser, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld.

ARTICLE VIII

TERMINATION

Section 8.01    Termination. This Agreement may be terminated and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby may be abandoned at any time prior to the Closing:

(a) by mutual written consent of Purchaser and Sellers;

(b) by either Purchaser or Sellers:

(i)        if the Closing has not occurred on or before three hundred (300) days after the Execution Date (such date, as it may be extended under clause (A) of this paragraph, the “Termination Date”); provided, however, (A) that Sellers shall have the option, in their sole discretion, to extend the Termination Date for an additional period of time not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days if the sole reason that the Closing has not occurred by such date is that the conditions set forth in Sections 7.01(b), 7.01(c), 7.02(d) or 7.03(d) have not been satisfied due to the failure to obtain the necessary waivers, consents, approvals and authorizations under applicable Laws or a permanent judgment, injunction, order or decree of a court or other Governmental Authority of competent jurisdiction shall be in effect and the applicable Party(s) is still attempting to obtain such necessary waivers, consents, approvals and authorizations under applicable Laws, or is contesting (x) the refusal of the relevant Governmental Authority to give such consents or approvals or (y) the entry of any such permanent judgment, injunction, order or decree, in court or through other applicable proceedings; and (B) the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.01(b)(i) shall not be available to any Party whose breach of any provision of this Agreement has been the cause of, or resulted in, the failure of the Closing to occur by the Termination Date; or

(ii)       if any court of competent jurisdiction in the United States or other United States Governmental Authority shall have issued a final order, decree or ruling or taken any other final action restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement

-34-

and such order, decree, ruling or other action is or shall have become final and nonappealable; provided, however, that the Party seeking to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.01(b)(ii) shall have used reasonable commercial efforts to prevent the entry of and to remove such order, decree, ruling or final action;

(c)       by Purchaser if there has been a material breach by any Seller of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement which (x) would result in a failure of a condition set forth in Section 7.02(a) or Section 7.02(b) and (y) cannot be cured prior to the Termination Date or if the condition set forth in Section 7.02(g) is not met; and

(d)       by Sellers if (i) there has been a material breach by Purchaser of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement which (x) would result in a failure of a condition set forth in Section 7.03(a) or Section 7.03(b) and (y) cannot be cured prior to the Termination Date or (ii) the Asset Purchase Agreement has terminated prior to the Closing Date.

The Party desiring to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.01 (other than pursuant to Section 8.01(a)) shall give notice of such termination to the other Party.

Section 8.02    Effect of Termination. In the event of termination of this Agreement by any Seller or by Purchaser prior to the Closing pursuant to the provisions of Section 8.01, there shall be no liability or further obligation on the part of Purchaser or Sellers or their respective officers, managers or directors (except as set forth in Section 6.01(b), Section 6.05, Section 6.17, this Section 8.02, Section 9.03 and Article X, all of which shall survive the termination hereof); provided, however, that nothing in this Section 8.02 shall relieve any Party from liability for any breach of this Agreement by such Party prior to termination of this Agreement.

ARTICLE IX

INDEMNIFICATION

Section 9.01    Survival. All representations, warranties, covenants and obligations in this Agreement or in any agreement, instrument or other document delivered in connection herewith, and the right to commence any Claim with respect thereto, shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and the Closing Date but shall terminate on the first anniversary of the Closing Date. No Party may make or assert any Claim under any representation or warranty of, or breach of covenant by, any other Party contained in this Agreement or in any agreement, instrument or other document delivered in connection herewith after the first anniversary of the Closing Date, except that any claims made or asserted by a Party within the applicable time period prescribed above setting forth such Claim in reasonable detail (including a reasonable specification of the legal and factual basis for such Claim and the Loss incurred) shall survive such expiration until such Claim is finally resolved and all obligations with respect thereto are fully satisfied.

Section 9.02 Indemnification.

(a)       Subject to the provisions of this Article IX, Sellers, jointly and severally from and after the Closing Date, shall indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser and the Company from and against any and all Losses actually incurred by either of them that arise out of or result

-35-

from (i) the breach of any of the representations and warranties, as of the date when made, or (ii) the breach of any of the covenants or agreements of Sellers contained in this Agreement.

(b)       Subject to the provisions of this Article IX, Purchaser from and after the Closing Date shall indemnify and hold harmless Sellers from and against any and all Losses actually incurred by Sellers that arise out of or result from the breach of any of the Purchaser’s (i) representations and warranties as of the date when made, and (ii) covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement.

(c)       Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, a Party shall not be liable for any Losses with respect to the matters set forth in Section 9.02(a) or 9.02(b) unless a Claim is timely asserted during the survival period specified in Section 9.01.

(d)       The total aggregate liability of Sellers for any claims for Losses arising under this Agreement, whether based in contract, tort, strict liability, other Law or otherwise, shall not exceed forty million dollars ($40,000,000).

(e)       Sellers shall have no liability in respect of its indemnification obligations under Section 9.02(a), and there shall be no claim for indemnification asserted by Purchaser, until (y) the Loss with respect to the particular act, circumstance, development, event, fact, occurrence or omission exceeds two hundred fifty thousand dollars ($250,000) (aggregating all Losses arising from substantially identical facts and then only for amounts in excess thereof), and (z) the aggregate of all Losses under Section 9.02(a) exceeds, on a cumulative basis, two million dollars ($2,000,000) (and then only to the extent of such excess).

(f)        In calculating any amount of Losses recoverable pursuant to Section 9.02(a) or 9.02(b), the amount of such Losses shall be reduced by (i) any recoverable insurance proceeds relating to such Loss, net of any related deductible and any expenses to obtain such proceeds, (ii) any prior or subsequent recoveries from third-parties pursuant to indemnification (or otherwise) with respect thereto, net of any expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party in obtaining such third-party payment, (iii) the amount of any net Tax benefit actually realized from the incurrence or payment of such Losses, and (iv) any reserves established with respect to such Losses. The Parties shall treat any indemnification payment pursuant to this Article IX as an adjustment to the Final Purchase Price for all Tax purposes unless otherwise required by applicable Law. The Indemnified Party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to seek insurance recoveries in respect of losses to be indemnified hereunder. If any insurance proceeds or other recoveries from third-parties or net Tax benefits are actually realized (in each case net of expenses of such recoveries) by an Indemnified Party subsequent to the receipt by such Indemnified Party of an indemnification payment hereunder in respect of the claims to which such insurance proceedings, third-party recoveries or net Tax benefits relate, appropriate refunds shall be made promptly to the Indemnifying Party regarding the amount of such indemnification payment.

(g)       No Person shall be entitled to indemnification under this Article IX if, on or prior to the Closing Date, such Person seeking indemnification had Knowledge of the breach of representation, warranty, covenant or agreement with respect to which such Person is seeking indemnification under this Article IX. Purchaser shall promptly notify Sellers of any breach of

-36-

any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of Sellers made hereunder of which Purchaser has Knowledge.

(h)       Each Party shall have a duty to use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate any Loss suffered by such Party in connection with this Agreement.

(i)        Sellers shall have no liability for any Losses that represent the cost of repairs, replacements or improvements which enhance the value of the repaired, replaced or improved asset above its value on the Closing Date or which represent the cost of repair or replacement exceeding the reasonable cost of repair or replacement.

(j)        The remedies for environmental claims set forth in this Agreement shall be the Purchaser’s sole and exclusive remedies and Purchaser expressly waive all other rights of recovery against Sellers under any Environmental Law including, but not limited to, the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act and the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act.

(k)       This Article IX shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Parties hereto following the Closing for any Loss arising out of any misrepresentation or breach of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements of the Parties contained in this Agreement. In furtherance of the foregoing, each of the Parties hereto hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, any and all rights, claims and causes of action it may have against the other Parties hereto, arising under or based upon any law, other than the right to seek indemnity pursuant to this Article IX.

Section 9.03 Waiver of Other Representations.

(a)       EXCEPT FOR THOSE EXPRESS REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES CONTAINED IN ARTICLE III OR ARTICLE IV, SELLERS’ INTERESTS IN THE COMPANY ARE BEING TRANSFERRED THROUGH THE SALE OF THE INTERESTS “AS IS, WHERE IS, WITH ALL FAULTS,” AND SELLERS EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ANY REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND OR NATURE, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AS TO THE CONDITION, VALUE OR QUALITY OF THE COMPANY AND THE FACILITY OR THE PROSPECTS (FINANCIAL OR OTHERWISE), RISKS AND OTHER INCIDENTS OF THE COMPANY AND THE FACILITY.

(b)       EXCEPT FOR THE OBLIGATIONS OF SELLERS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, FOR AND IN CONSIDERATION OF THE TRANSFER OF THE INTERESTS, EFFECTIVE AS OF THE CLOSING DATE, PURCHASER AND THE COMPANY AND THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES HEREBY RELEASE, ACQUIT AND FOREVER DISCHARGE SELLERS AND THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES, EACH OF THEIR PRESENT AND FORMER REPRESENTATIVES AND EACH OF THEIR RESPECTIVE HEIRS, EXECUTORS, ADMINISTRATORS, SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS, FROM ANY AND ALL MANNER OF CAUSE OR CAUSES OF ACTION, DEMANDS, RIGHTS, DAMAGES, DEBTS, DUES, SUMS OF MONEY, ACCOUNTS, RECKONINGS, COSTS, EXPENSES, RESPONSIBILITIES, COVENANTS, CONTRACTS, CONTROVERSIES, AGREEMENTS AND CLAIMS WHATSOEVER, WHETHER KNOWN

-37-

OR UNKNOWN, OF EVERY NAME AND NATURE, BOTH IN LAW AND IN EQUITY, WHICH PURCHASER OR ITS AFFILIATES OR THEIR SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS EVER HAD, NOW HAVE, OR WHICH THEY OR THEIR SUCCESSORS OR ASSIGNS HEREAFTER MAY HAVE OR SHALL HAVE AGAINST SELLERS AND THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES, EACH OF THEIR PRESENT AND FORMER REPRESENTATIVES AND EACH OF THEIR RESPECTIVE HEIRS, EXECUTORS, ADMINISTRATORS, SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS, ARISING OUT OF OR WITH RESPECT TO ANY MATTERS, CAUSES, ACTS, CONDUCT, CLAIMS, CIRCUMSTANCES OR EVENTS EXISTING, OCCURRING OR FAILING TO OCCUR, WHETHER PRIOR TO, ON OR AFTER THE CLOSING DATE, INCLUDING WITH RESPECT TO THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT.

Section 9.04    Right to Specific Performance; Certain Limitations. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary:

(a)       Without limiting or waiving in any respect any rights or remedies of a Party under this Agreement now or hereafter existing at law in equity or by statute, each of the Parties hereto shall be entitled to specific performance of the obligations to be performed by the other Party in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement; and

(b)       No Representative, Affiliate of, or direct or indirect equity owner in, any Seller shall have any personal liability to Purchaser or any other Person as a result of the breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation of Sellers in this Agreement and no Representative, Affiliate of, or indirect equity owner in, Purchaser shall have any personal liability to any Seller or any other Person as a result of the breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation of Purchaser in this Agreement; and

(c)       No Party shall be liable for special, punitive, exemplary, incidental, consequential or indirect damages, or lost profits or losses calculated by reference to any multiple of earnings before interest, tax, depreciation or amortization (or any other valuation methodology) whether based on contract, tort, strict liability, other Law or otherwise and whether or not arising from the other Party’s sole, joint or concurrent negligence, strict liability or other fault for any matter relating to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 9.05    Procedures for Indemnification. Whenever a Claim shall arise for indemnification under Section 9.01, the Person entitled to indemnification (the “Indemnified Party”) shall promptly notify in writing the Party from which indemnification is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) of such Claim and, when known, the facts constituting the basis of such Claim; provided, however, that in the event of a Claim for indemnification resulting from or in connection with a Claim by a third party, the Indemnified Party shall give such written notice thereof to the Indemnifying Party not later than ten (10) Business Days prior to the time any response to the third party Claim is required, if possible, and in any event within fifteen (15) Business Days following receipt of notice thereof (provided, that failure to timely notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of any liability it may have to the Indemnified Party, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party has been actually prejudiced by such failure). Following receipt of notice of any such third party Claim, and unless counsel to the Indemnified Party shall have reasonably determined in good faith that the assumption of such

-38-

defense by the Indemnifying Party would be inappropriate due to a conflict of interest, the Indemnifying Party shall have the option, at its cost and expense, to assume the defense of such matter and to retain counsel (not reasonably objected to by the Indemnified Party) to defend any such claim or legal proceeding, and the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party for any fees of other counsel or any other expenses (except as expressly provided to the contrary herein) with respect to the defense of such Claim, other than reasonable fees and expenses of counsel employed by the Indemnified Party for any period during which the Indemnifying Party has not assumed the defense thereof. The Indemnified Party shall have the option of joining the defense of such Claim (which shall be at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnified Party) with its own counsel and counsel for each Party shall, to the extent consistent with such counsel’s professional responsibilities, cooperate with the other Party and any counsel designated by that Party. In effecting the settlement or compromise of, or consenting to the entry of any judgment with respect to, any such Claim, the Indemnifying Party, or the Indemnified Party, as the case may be, shall act in good faith, shall consult with the other Party and shall enter into only such settlement or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment as the other Party shall consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. An Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement, compromise or judgment not made in accordance with the preceding sentence.
