2.4       Articles of Incorporation, Bylaws and Directors and Officers . The articles of incorporation of the Buyer shall, without further action, be terminated, and the articles of incorporation and bylaws of the Company in effect at the Effective Time shall be the articles of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Entity until amended in accordance with applicable Law. The officers and directors of the Company and the Buyer in office immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the officers and directors of the Surviving Entity effective as of the Effective Time, as set forth on Schedule 2.4 hereto.

2.5       Conversion of Shares . At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger (and without any action on the part of Buyer or the Company) the shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share of the Company (each, a “ Common Share ” and, collectively, the “ Common Shares ”) and the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock of the Company (each a “ Preferred Share ” and, collectively, the “ Preferred Shares ” and, together with the Common Shares, the “ Shares ”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, collectively, be converted into the right to receive the Common Consideration, or, at the election of any holder of Shares, the Preferred Consideration.

Additionally, Laidlaw shall be issued warrants (the “ Laidlaw Warrants ”) to purchase shares of Common Stock, in such form and with such terms and pricing as shall be mutually agreed upon between the Company and Parent prior to Closing.

If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by Parent, the posting by such person of a bond in such reasonable amount as Parent may direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate, Parent shall deliver in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the applicable Merger Consideration with respect thereto.

The Escrow Shares shall not be available for sale, transfer or other disposition by the Stockholder during the Escrow Period.

Subject to the limitations set forth this Section 8.1 and otherwise in this Article VIII, the Stockholder (the “ Stockholder Indemnifying Party ”), agree to indemnify and hold harmless Parent, the Surviving Entity and their respective directors, officers and Affiliates and their successors and assigns (each a “ Parent Indemnified Party ”) from and against any and all Losses of the Parent Indemnified Parties, to the extent directly or indirectly resulting or arising from or based upon:

(i)      breach of any representation or warranty set forth in Article III; and

(ii)      all Taxes to the extent resulting from or relating to the ownership, management or use of and the operation of the Company prior to and including the Closing Date.

(b)       Intentionally Omitted .

(c)       Limitations on Liability . The obligations of the Stockholder under this Section 8.1 shall be subject to the following limitations:

(i)      The Stockholder shall not have any liability to any Parent Indemnified Party with respect to Losses arising out of any of the matters referred to in Section 8.1(a), until such time as the amount of all such liability shall collectively exceed $10,000 (the “ Threshold ”), whereupon the Losses exceeding the Threshold shall be payable by the Stockholder;

(ii)      Parent waives, on behalf of itself and any Parent Indemnified Party, any right to multiply actual damages or recover consequential, indirect, special, punitive or exemplary damages (including, without limitation, damages for lost profits or loss of business opportunity) arising in connection with or with respect to the indemnification provisions hereof or any right to recovery from any source other than the Escrow Shares . For the avoidance of doubt, the Stockholder’s indemnification obligation is limited to the Escrow Shares.

(iii)       In no event shall the Stockholder’s aggregate liability to any Indemnified Party under Section 8.1 exceed the after tax amount of such Claim and all Claims shall be net of any insurance proceeds reasonably expected to be received in respect of Losses subject to such Claim. The Parent Indemnified Parties shall use all reasonable efforts to collect any amounts available under applicable insurance policies with respect to Losses subject to a Claim.

8.2       Obligations of Parent . Parent, Buyer and the Surviving Entity (collectively, the “ Parent Indemnifying Parties ”) agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Stockholder and its agents, representatives and Affiliates and its successors and assigns (each, a “ Stockholder Indemnified Party ”) from and against any and all Losses of the Stockholder Indemnified Party, directly or indirectly, as a result of, or based upon or arising from:

(a)      the ownership, management and operation of the Company and the Surviving Entity after the Closing Date, except (a) to the extent any such Losses are subject to indemnification by the Stockholder pursuant to Section 8.1 or (b) to the extent any such Losses are the result of fraud committed by the Stockholder; and

Also, in no event shall Buyer’s aggregate liability under Section 8.2 exceed the after-tax amount of such Claims.

8.3       Procedure . A Stockholder Indemnified Party or a Parent Indemnified Party (each, an “ Indemnified Party ”) shall give the Parent Indemnifying Party or Stockholder Indemnifying Party (each, an “ Indemnifying Party ”), as applicable, notice (a “ Claim Notice ”) of any matter which an Indemnified Party has determined has given or could reasonably give rise to a right of indemnification under this Agreement (a “ Claim ”), within forty-five (45) days of such determination; provided, however, that any failure of the Indemnified Party to provide such Claim Notice shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under this Article VIII except to the extent the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure and shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any other obligation or liability that it may have to any Indemnified Party otherwise than under this Article VIII except to the extent the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure. Upon receipt of the Claim Notice, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to assume and control the defense of such Claim at its expense if it gives notice of its intention to do so to the Indemnified Party within ten (10) Business Days of the receipt of such Claim Notice from the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that (i) Indemnified Party must approve of the selection of legal counsel by Indemnifying Party, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned and (ii) if there exists or is reasonably likely to exist a conflict of interest that would make it inappropriate in the judgment of the Indemnified Party, in its reasonable discretion, for the same counsel to represent both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, then the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to retain its own counsel, in each jurisdiction for which the Indemnified Party determines counsel is required, at the expense of the Indemnifying Party. In the event the Indemnifying Party exercises the right to undertake any such defense against any such Claim as provided above, the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying

Party in such defense and make available to the Indemnifying Party, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, all witnesses, pertinent records, materials and information in the Indemnified Party’s possession or under the Indemnified Party’s control relating thereto as is reasonably required by the Indemnifying Party. Similarly, in the event the Indemnified Party is, directly or indirectly, conducting the defense against any such Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall cooperate with the Indemnified Party in such defense and make available to the Indemnified Party, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, all such witnesses, records, materials and information in the Indemnifying Party’s possession or under the Indemnifying Party’s control relating thereto as is reasonably required by the Indemnified Party. No such Claim may be settled by the Indemnifying Party without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned so long as (a) there is no payment or other consideration required of the Indemnified Party and (b) such settlement does not require or otherwise involve any restrictions on the conduct of Business by the Indemnified Party.

(b)      Any matter as to which a Claim has been asserted by a Claim Notice to the other party that is pending or unresolved at the end of any applicable limitation period shall continue to be covered by this Article VIII notwithstanding any applicable statute of limitations (which the parties hereby waive) until such matter is finally terminated or otherwise resolved by the parties under this Agreement or by a final, nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction and any amounts payable hereunder are finally determined and paid.

8.5       Notice by Indemnifying Party . The Indemnifying Party agrees to notify the Indemnified Party of any liabilities, claims or misrepresentations, breaches or other matters covered by this Article VIII upon discovery or receipt of notice thereof (other than such claims from the Indemnified Party).

Other than rights to equitable relief, to the extent available under applicable law, each of the parties acknowledges and agrees that the sole and exclusive remedy for any Losses arising from Claims described in Sections 8.1 and 8.2 or any other Claims of every nature arising in any manner in connection with this Agreement, shall be indemnification in accordance with this Article VIII.

8.7       Mitigation . Prior to the resolution of any Claim for indemnification under this Agreement, the Indemnified Party shall utilize all commercially reasonable efforts, consistent with normal past practices and policies and good commercial practice, to mitigate such Losses.

8.8       Consequential and Other Damages . No party shall be liable for any lost profits or consequential, special, punitive, indirect or incidental Losses or damages in connection with this Agreement.
