6.3 Expenses .  Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, each party hereto shall be solely responsible for and shall bear its own costs and expenses incident to its obligations under and in respect of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including, but not limited to, any such costs and expenses incurred by any party in connection with the negotiation, preparation and performance of and compliance with the terms of this Agreement (including, without limitation, the fees and disbursements of counsel and other advisors).

Any dispute, claim or controversy that cannot be resolved by the parties through good faith negotiations within thirty (30) days of the notification to the other party of the commencement of the dispute resolution procedures of this Section 6.5 will then, upon the written request of any party hereto, be resolved by binding arbitration conducted in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association by a sole arbitrator.  Such arbitrator shall be mutually agreeable to the parties.  If the parties cannot mutually agree upon the selection of an arbitrator, the arbitrator shall be selected in accordance with the rules of the then effective Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association.  To the extent not governed by such rules, such arbitrator shall be directed by the parties to set a schedule for determination of such dispute, claim or controversy that is reasonable under the circumstances.  Such arbitrator shall be directed by the parties to determine the dispute in accordance with this Agreement and the substantive rules of law (but not the rules of procedure or evidence) that would be applied by a federal court required to apply the internal law (and not the law of conflicts) of the State of Illinois.  The arbitration will be conducted in the English language in Chicago, Illinois.  Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered by any court having jurisdiction.

(c)

Nothing contained in this Section 6.5 shall prevent any party hereto from resorting to judicial process if injunctive or other equitable relief from a court is necessary to prevent injury to such party or its Affiliates.  The use of arbitration procedures will not be construed under the doctrine of laches, waiver or estoppel to affect adversely the rights of any party to assert any claim or defense.

6.5 Further Transfers .  Seller shall cause its Affiliates to, execute and deliver such further instruments of conveyance and transfer and take such additional action as Buyer may reasonably request to effect, consummate, confirm or evidence the transfer to Buyer of the Purchased Assets.  Seller shall cause Seller to, execute such documents as may be necessary to assist Buyer in preserving or perfecting its rights in the Purchased Assets.  Buyer shall execute and deliver such further instruments and take such additional actions as Seller may reasonably request to effect, consummate, confirm or evidence the assumption by Buyer of the Assumed Liabilities.

6.6 Transition Assistance .  Seller will not in any manner take any action which is designed, intended, or might be reasonably anticipated to have the effect of discouraging customers, suppliers, lessors, licensors and other business associates from maintaining the same business relationships with either Buyer and its Affiliates after the date of this Agreement as were maintained with the Seller and its Affiliates prior to the date of this Agreement.

6.7 Non Competition; Non Solicitation .  As condition precedent to Buyer to enter into and perform their respective obligations under this Agreement, Seller agrees, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, that:

---

(d)

Seller recognizes and affirms that in the event of breach by it of any of the provisions of this Section 6.8 , money damages would be inadequate and Buyer would have no adequate remedy at law.  Accordingly, Seller agrees that Buyer shall have the right, in addition to any other rights and remedies existing in their favor, to enforce its rights and Seller’s obligations under this Section 6.8 not only by an action or actions for damages, but also by an action or actions for specific performance, injunctive and/or other equitable relief in order to enforce or prevent any violations (whether anticipatory, continuing or future) of the provisions of this Section 6.8 (including, without limitation, the extension of the Non Competition Period by a period equal to (i) the length of the violation of this Section 6.8 plus (ii) the length of any court proceedings necessary to stop such violation).  In the event of a breach or violation by Seller of any of the provisions of this Section 6.8 , the running of the Non Competition Period (but not of Seller’s obligations under this Section 6.8 ) shall be tolled with respect to Seller during the continuance of any actual breach or violation.

6.8 Communications .  All mail and other communications directed to Seller and received by Seller at any time after the Closing Date (other than relating exclusively to the Excluded Assets or the Excluded Liabilities) shall be promptly turned over to Buyer by such party.  All mail and other communications relating exclusively to the Excluded Assets or Excluded Liabilities received by Buyer at any time after the Closing shall be promptly turned over to Seller by Buyer.

6.9 Confidentiality .  After the Closing, Seller, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, shall (i) continue to maintain the confidentiality of all information, documents and materials relating to the Business or relating to Buyer, or any of its Subsidiaries which has been disclosed to any of them (including, without limitation, the terms of this Agreement and the other agreements contemplated hereby), except to the extent disclosure of any such information is required by law or authorized by Buyer or reasonably occurs in connection with disputes over the terms of this Agreement and (ii) except with respect to this Agreement and the other agreements contemplated hereby, Seller shall immediately return all such information, documents and materials to Buyer.  After the Closing, Buyer, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, shall (i) continue to maintain the confidentiality of all information, documents and materials relating to Seller (other than to the extent relating to the Business) which has been disclosed to any of them, except to the extent disclosure of any such information is required by law or authorized by Seller or reasonably occurs in connection with disputes over the terms of this Agreement and (ii) except with respect to this Agreement and the other agreements contemplated hereby, immediately return all such information, documents and materials to Seller.  In the event that any party reasonably believes after consultation with counsel that it is required by law to disclose any confidential information described in this Section 6.9 the disclosing party will (a) provide the other party with prompt notice before such disclosure in order that any party may attempt to obtain a protective order or other assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded such confidential information and (b) cooperate with the other party in attempting to obtain such order or assurance.  The preceding sentence shall not apply to any disclosures made by Buyer to governmental authorities in response to or in connection with any investigation or inquiry to the extent that Buyer reasonably determines that notifying Seller would prejudice Buyer or would be contrary to law.  The provisions of this Section 6.9 shall not apply to any information, documents or materials which are, as shown by appropriate written evidence, in the public domain or, as shown by appropriate written evidence, shall come into the public domain, other than by reason of breach by the applicable party bound hereunder or its Affiliates.

6.10 Transfer Taxes; Recording Charges .  All documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration, conveyance or similar transfer Taxes arising out of the sale of the Purchased Assets or otherwise incurred in connection with this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and all charges for or in connection with the recording of any document or instrument contemplated hereby shall be borne equally by Buyer, on the one hand, and the Seller, on the other hand.  Buyer shall file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation in connection with the Taxes encompassed in this Section 6.10 and, if required by law, Seller will execute and join in any such filing.
