(a)           Notice to the Indemnitor.  As soon as reasonably practicable after a Person entitled to indemnification hereunder (an “ Indemnitee ”) has actual knowledge of any claim that it has under this Article X that could reasonably be expected to result in an indemnifiable Loss (a “ Claim ”), and in any event within thirty (30) days of any third party Claim being presented in writing to the Indemnitee by the party making the Claim, the Indemnitee shall give written notice thereof (a “ Claims Notice ”) to the party responsible for the indemnification (the “ Indemnitor ”).  A Claims Notice must describe the Claim in reasonable detail, and indicate the amount (estimated in good faith, as necessary and to the extent feasible) of the Loss that has been or may be suffered by the applicable Indemnitee.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no delay in or failure to give a Claims Notice pursuant to this Section 10.4(a) will adversely affect any of the other rights or remedies that the Indemnitee has under this Agreement, or alter or relieve an Indemnitor of its obligation to indemnify the applicable Indemnitee, except to the extent that such delay or failure results in the forfeiture by the Indemnitor of rights or defenses otherwise available to the Indemnitor with respect to such Claim or otherwise materially adversely prejudices the Indemnitor.  The Indemnitor shall respond to the Indemnitee (a “ Claim Response ”) within thirty (30) days (the “ Response Period ”) after the date that the Claims Notice is received (or deemed received) by the Indemnitor.  Any Claim Response must specify whether or not the Indemnitor disputes the Claim described in the Claims Notice.  If the Indemnitor fails to deliver a Claim Response within the Response Period, the Indemnitor will be deemed not to dispute the Claim described in the related Claims Notice.  If the Indemnitor elects not to dispute a Claim described in a Claims Notice, whether by failing to give a timely Claim Response or otherwise, then the amount of Losses alleged in such Claims Notice will be conclusively deemed to be an obligation of the relevant Indemnitor, and the relevant Indemnitor shall satisfy such obligation within ten (10) Business Days after the last day of the applicable Response Period the amount specified in the Claims Notice.  If the Indemnitor delivers a Claim Response within the Response Period indicating that it disputes one or more of the matters identified in the Claims Notice, representatives of the Surviving Entity and Roomlinx shall promptly meet and negotiate in good faith to settle the dispute.  The Surviving Entity and Roomlinx shall cooperate with and make available to the other party and its respective representatives all information, records and data, and shall permit reasonable access to its facilities and personnel, as may be reasonably required in connection with the resolution of such disputes, except to the extent such disclosure is reasonably likely to, in the disclosing party’s good faith determination, materially compromise the assertion of any attorney-client privilege.  If the Surviving Entity’s representative and Roomlinx’s representative are unable to reach agreement within thirty (30) days after the conclusion of the Response Period, then either the Surviving Entity or Roomlinx may resort to other legal remedies subject to the limitations set forth in this Article X .

(b)           Right of Parties to Settle or Defend.  In the event of any claim by a third party against an Indemnitee for which indemnification is available hereunder, the Indemnitor has the right, exercisable by written notice to the Indemnitee, within thirty (30) days of receipt of a Notice from the Indemnitor to assume and conduct the defense of such claim (at its sole expense) with counsel selected by the Indemnitor and reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee so long as Indemnitor acknowledges in a writing delivered to the Indemnitee that the Indemnitor is obligated to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Indemnitee under the terms of its indemnification obligations hereunder in connection with such third party claim;  provided that  if the named parties to such third party claim include both the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee and the Indemnitee has been advised in writing by counsel that there could be a material conflict of interest in the case of joint representation or that there may be a legal defense available to such Indemnitee that is different (in a non   de minimis   way) from those available to the Indemnitor, the Indemnitee shall be entitled to separate counsel of its own choosing at the Indemnitor’s reasonable expense; and  provided further that  the Indemnitor shall not be permitted to assume defense of any claim by a third party against an Indemnitee for which indemnification is available hereunder (without the written consent of the Indemnitee) if the third party claimant is seeking injunctive or similar relief that, if obtained, could be materially adverse to the Indemnitee.  If the Indemnitor has assumed such defense as provided in this Section 10.4(b), the Indemnitor will not be liable for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by any Indemnitee in connection with the defense of such claim so long as the Indemnitor actively, diligently and in good faith defends such claim.  If the Indemnitor does not assume the defense of any third party claim in accordance with this Section 10.4(b), the Indemnitee may continue to defend such claim at the sole cost of the Indemnitor (subject to the limitations set forth in this  Article X ) and the Indemnitor may still participate in, but not control, the defense of such third party claim at the Indemnitor’s sole cost and expense.  The Indemnitee will not consent to a settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any such claim, without the prior written consent of the Indemnitor (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).  Except with the prior written consent of the Indemnitee (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), no Indemnitor, in the defense of any such claim, will consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement thereof.  Indemnitee shall not be obligated to consent to any settlement or judgment (i) if it provides for injunctive or other nonmonetary relief affecting the Indemnitee or (ii) unless it includes as an unconditional term thereof the giving by each claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnitee and its Affiliates of a release from all Liability with respect to such claim or litigation.  In any such third party claim, the party responsible for the defense of such claim (the “Responsible Party”) shall, to the extent reasonably requested by the other party, keep such other party informed as to the status of such claim, including all settlement negotiations and offers.  Each Indemnitee shall use all reasonable efforts to make available to the Indemnitor and its representatives, all books, records and personnel of the Indemnitee relating to such third party claim and shall reasonably cooperate with the Indemnitor in the defense of the third party claim.

(c)           Settlement. The Responsible Party shall promptly notify the other party of each settlement offer with respect to a third party claim.  Such other party shall promptly notify the Responsible Party whether or not such party is willing to accept the proposed settlement offer.  If the Indemnitor is willing to accept the proposed settlement offer but the Indemnitee refuses to accept such settlement offer, then if (i) such settlement offer requires only the payment of money damages and provides a complete release of all Indemnitees that are a party to such third party claim and their affiliates with respect to the subject matter thereof and (ii) the Indemnitor agrees in writing that the entire amount of such proposed settlement constitutes Losses for which the relevant Indemnitor is responsible and shall satisfy in full, then the amount payable to the Indemnitees with respect to such third party claim will be limited to the amount of such settlement offer.  If any such settlement offer is made to any claimant and rejected by such claimant, the amount payable to an Indemnitee with respect to such claim will not be limited to the amount of such settlement offer but will remain subject to all other limitations set forth in this Agreement.

 

 

 

 

 

Section 10.5     Exclusive Remedy.  If the Closing occurs, the remedies provided for in this Article X are the sole and exclusive remedy for breaches of this Agreement and no other remedy will be had in contract, tort or otherwise, except in cases of fraud and intentional misrepresentation; provided, however, that the foregoing clause of this sentence will not be deemed a waiver by either party of any right to specific performance or injunctive relief.  All claims made prior to the final distribution of the Escrow Fund shall first be satisfied from the Escrow Fund and, to the extent any excess indemnification is owed, from the appropriate Person or Persons hereunder.

 

Section 10.6     Certain Rules.  The indemnification obligations in this Article X are for the benefit of the specified indemnified persons.  Indemnification payments will be treated for tax purposes as adjustments to the Merger Consideration.

8 .          Restrictive   Covenants .   Executive acknowledges that the Company's ability to keep its Confidential Information (as defined in Section   9(b) ) secret and away from its competitors is important to the Company's and its affiliates' viability and business.  Executive further acknowledges that over the course of his employment with the Company he has and will (i) develop special and substantial relationships with the Company's and its affiliates' customers and suppliers, and/or (ii) be privy to Confidential Information.  Further, Executive has and will help develop the goodwill of the Company and its affiliates during the course of his employment. Finally, pursuant to Section   3(b) , Executive will have a substantial ownership interest in the Company.  As such, Executive agrees to abide by the following covenants in order to allow the Company to protect those interests:

 

Non-Competition .   During the term of this agreement and during the "Restricted Period" (as defined below), Executive will not either directly or indirectly, for himself or any other person or entity, anywhere within the United States, carry on, own, be engaged in, assist, be employed by, consult for, serve as a director for, or have any financial interest in any business or enterprise that is materially engaged in  any of the services of the Company or manufactures or sells any of the products provided or offered by Company or any subsidiary or affiliate of Company, or if it performs any other services and/or engages in the production, manufacture, distribution or sale of any product similar to services or products, which services or products were performed, produced, manufactured, distributed, sold, under development or planned by Company or any subsidiary or affiliate of Company during the period while Executive performs services for Company, provided that an equity investment of not more than two percent (2%) in any company that is publicly traded and whose shares are listed on a national stock exchange will be permitted.

 

For purposes of this Section   8 , " Restricted   Period " means the period beginning on the Employment Commencement Date and continuing until the first nine (9) month anniversary of Executive's employment termination date, irrespective of the reason that Executive's employment is terminated with the Company.

 

(a)        Non-Solicitation .   During the term of this agreement Restricted Period, Executive will not either directly or indirectly, for himself or any other person or entity, (i) hire, solicit for services, encourage the resignation of, or in any other manner seek to engage or employ,  any  person  who  is  an  employee  of  the  Company,  on  Executive's  employment termination date or during the nine (9) month period preceding such termination date, or (ii) solicit, provide services to, or otherwise interfere with the Company's business relationship with, any customer of the Company in connection with services and/or products that compete with the Company's services or products, provided that such customer is a customer of the Company on the employment termination date or during the one (1) year period preceding such termination date.

 

(b)        Equitable   Relief .  Executive acknowledges that the remedy at law for his breach of Section   8 , 9(a) and/or 10 will be inadequate, and that the damages flowing from such breach will not be readily susceptible to being measured in monetary terms. Accordingly, upon a violation of any part of such Sections, the Company will be entitled to immediate injunctive relief (or other equitable relief) and may obtain a temporary order restraining any further violation.  No bond or other security will be required in obtaining such equitable relief, and Executive hereby consents to the issuance of such equitable relief.  Such equitable relief may be obtained from any court having appropriate jurisdiction over the matter.  Nothing in this Section 8(c) shall be deemed to limit the Company's remedies at law or in equity that may be pursued or availed of by the Company for any breach by Executive of any of the parts of Sections   8 , 9(a) and/or 10 .

 

(c)        Judicial Modification . Executive acknowledges that it is the intent of the parties hereto that the restrictions contained or referenced in Sections   8 , 9 and 10 be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under the laws of each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought. If any of the restrictions contained or referenced in such Sections is for any reason held by a court or arbitrator to be excessively broad as to duration, activity, geographical scope, or subject, then, for purposes of that jurisdiction, such restriction shall be construed, judicially modified, or "blue penciled" so as to thereafter be limited or reduced to the extent required to be enforceable in accordance with applicable law.   Executive acknowledges and understands that, due to the nature and scope of the Company's existing and proposed business plans and projects, and the technological advancements in electronic communications, any narrower geographic restriction of his obligations under Sections   8(a) and 8(b) would be inappropriate and counter to the protections sought by the Company thereunder.

 

9 .             Confidential   Information .

 

(a)        Non-Use   and   Non-Disclosure   of   Confidential   Information .  Executive acknowledges that, during the course of his employment with the Company, he has had and will have access to information about the Company and its affiliates, and their customers and suppliers, that is confidential and/or proprietary in nature, and that belongs to the Company and/or its affiliates.  As such, at all times, both during his employment and thereafter, Executive will hold in the strictest confidence, and not use or attempt to use except for the benefit of the Company and its affiliates, and not disclose to any other person or entity (without the prior written authorization of the Board) any "Confidential Information" (as defined in Section   9(b) ). Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section   9 , Executive will be permitted to disclose any Confidential Information to the extent required by validly-issued legal process or court order, provided that Executive notifies the Board immediately of any such legal process or court order in an effort to allow the Company to challenge such legal process or court order, if the Company so elects, prior to Executive's disclosure of any Confidential Information.

 

(b)        Definition     of     Confidential     Information .      For   purposes   of   this Agreement, " Confidential   Information " means any confidential or proprietary information that belongs to the Company or its affiliates, or any of their customers or suppliers, including, without limitation, technical data, market data, trade secrets, trademarks, service marks, copyrights, other intellectual property, know-how, research, business plans, product and service information, projects, services, customer lists and information, customer preferences, customer transactions, supplier lists and information, supplier rates, software, hardware, technology, inventions, developments, processes, formulas, designs, drawings, marketing methods and strategies, pricing strategies, sales methods, financial information, project information, revenue figures, account information, credit information, financing arrangements, and other information disclosed to Executive by the Company or its affiliates in confidence, directly or indirectly, and whether in writing, orally, or by electronic records, drawings, pictures, or inspection of tangible property.

 

 

 

 

 

 

10 .        Return     of     Company     Property .      Upon   the   termination   of   Executive's employment with the Company, or at any time during such employment upon request by the Company, Executive will promptly deliver to the Company and not keep in his possession, recreate, or deliver to any other person or entity, any and all property that belongs to the Company or any of its affiliates, or that belongs to any other third party and is in Executive's possession as a result of his employment with the Company, including, without limitation, records, data, customer lists and information, supplier lists and information, notes, reports, correspondence, financial information, account information, product and service information, project information, files, and other documents and information, including any and all copies of the foregoing.

Finally, pursuant to Section   3(b) , Executive will have a substantial ownership interest in the Company.  As such, Executive agrees to abide by the following covenants in order to allow the Company to protect those interests:

 

Non-Competition .   During the term of this agreement and during the "Restricted Period" (as defined below), Executive will not either directly or indirectly, for himself or any other person or entity, anywhere within the United States, carry on, own, be engaged in, assist, be employed by, consult for, serve as a director for, or have any financial interest in any business or enterprise that is materially engaged in  any of the services of the Company or manufactures or sells any of the products provided or offered by Company or any subsidiary or affiliate of Company, or if it performs any other services and/or engages in the production, manufacture, distribution or sale of any product similar to services or products, which services or products were performed, produced, manufactured, distributed, sold, under development or planned by Company or any subsidiary or affiliate of Company during the period while Executive performs services for Company, provided that an equity investment of not more than two percent (2%) in any company that is publicly traded and whose shares are listed on a national stock exchange will be permitted.

 

For purposes of this Section   8 , " Restricted   Period " means the period beginning on the Employment Commencement Date and continuing until the first nine (9) month anniversary of Executive's employment termination date, irrespective of the reason that Executive's employment is terminated with the Company.

 

(a)        Non-Solicitation .   During the term of this agreement Restricted Period, Executive will not either directly or indirectly, for himself or any other person or entity, (i) hire, solicit for services, encourage the resignation of, or in any other manner seek to engage or employ,  any  person  who  is  an  employee  of  the  Company,  on  Executive's  employment termination date or during the nine (9) month period preceding such termination date, or (ii) solicit, provide services to, or otherwise interfere with the Company's business relationship with, any customer of the Company in connection with services and/or products that compete with the Company's services or products, provided that such customer is a customer of the Company on the employment termination date or during the one (1) year period preceding such termination date.

 

 

 

 

 

 

(b)        Equitable   Relief .  Executive acknowledges that the remedy at law for his breach of Section   8 , 9(a) and/or 10 will be inadequate, and that the damages flowing from such breach will not be readily susceptible to being measured in monetary terms. Accordingly, upon a violation of any part of such Sections, the Company will be entitled to immediate injunctive relief (or other equitable relief) and may obtain a temporary order restraining any further violation.  No bond or other security will be required in obtaining such equitable relief, and Executive hereby consents to the issuance of such equitable relief.  Such equitable relief may be obtained from any court having appropriate jurisdiction over the matter.  Nothing in this Section 8(c) shall be deemed to limit the Company's remedies at law or in equity that may be pursued or availed of by the Company for any breach by Executive of any of the parts of Sections   8 , 9(a) and/or 10 .

 

(c)        Judicial Modification . Executive acknowledges that it is the intent of the parties hereto that the restrictions contained or referenced in Sections   8 , 9 and 10 be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under the laws of each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought. If any of the restrictions contained or referenced in such Sections is for any reason held by a court or arbitrator to be excessively broad as to duration, activity, geographical scope, or subject, then, for purposes of that jurisdiction, such restriction shall be construed, judicially modified, or "blue penciled" so as to thereafter be limited or reduced to the extent required to be enforceable in accordance with applicable law.   Executive acknowledges and understands that, due to the nature and scope of the Company's existing and proposed business plans and projects, and the technological advancements in electronic communications, any narrower geographic restriction of his obligations under Sections   8(a) and 8(b) would be inappropriate and counter to the protections sought by the Company thereunder.
