ARTICLE VIII
INDEMNIFICATION

8.1 Survival. All representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or in any Related Document shall be deemed to be material and to have been relied upon by the parties hereto, and shall survive the Closing and shall be fully effective and enforceable for a period of eighteen (18) months following the Closing Date (unless a different period is specifically assigned thereto in this Agreement), but shall thereafter be of no further force or effect, except as they relate to claims for indemnification timely made pursuant to this Article VIII ; provided , however , that the representations and warranties contained in Section 3.8 (“ Taxes ”) and Section 3.12 (“ Assets and Title ”) shall survive until 90 days after the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations period; and provided, further, that the representations and warranties contained in Section 3.1 (“ No Violation ”), Section 3.2 (“ Due Organization ”), Section 3.3 (“ Authorization ”) and Section 3.5 (“ Consents ”) shall survive indefinitely. Any claim for indemnification asserted in writing before the eighteen (18) month anniversary of the Closing Date or the other applicable survival period set forth in this Section 8.1 shall survive until resolved or judicially determined. No investigation by Buyer prior to the Closing Date shall relieve the Sellers from any liability for any misrepresentation, misleading statement or omission made in this Agreement or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby. Covenants and agreements required to be performed after the Closing shall survive the Closing and shall expire in accordance with their terms.

8.2 Indemnification.

(a) Indemnification by the Sellers Subject to the limitations and the provisions set forth in this Agreement, the Sellers shall jointly and severally indemnify, reimburse and hold harmless Buyer and its Affiliates from and against any and all loss, damage (but excluding any consequential, special or punitive damages unless awarded to a third party in connection with a third Party Claim), expense (including court costs, amounts paid in settlement, interest, penalties, judgments, reasonable attorneys’ fees or other expenses for investigating and defending), suit, action, claim, liability or obligation (collectively, “ Damages ”) related to, caused by or arising from: (i) any breach of any representation or warranty contained herein or in any Related Document by the Sellers, or any allegations by third parties that, if true, would entitle Buyer and its Affiliates to indemnity under this Section 8.2(a)(i); (ii) any breach or nonfulfillment of any covenant or agreement contained in or made pursuant to this Agreement or any Related Document by either Seller, or any allegations by third parties that, if true, would entitle Buyer and its Affiliates to indemnity under this Section 8.2(a)(ii); (iii) the Excluded Liabilities and any liabilities arising from the Excluded Assets; (iv) any liabilities of the Sellers or any of their Affiliates arising after the Closing Date; (v) any third party or Governmental Authority claims arising in breach of contract, breach of warranty, product liability, unfair competition, personal or other injury, tort or infringement of property rights of others, Taxes, employee matters or other third party or Governmental Authority claims, in each case which claim is with respect to any and all activities of the Sellers or any Affiliate thereof on or before the Closing Date; and (vi) any and all actions, suits, proceedings, claims, demands, assessments, judgments, costs and expenses, including reasonable legal fees and expenses, in enforcing this indemnity against the Sellers.

(b) Indemnification by Buyer . Subject to the limitations and provisions set forth in this Agreement, Buyer shall indemnify, reimburse and hold harmless the Sellers against any Damages related to, caused by or arising from: (i) any breach of any representation or warranty contained herein or in any Related Document by Buyer, or any allegations by third parties that, if true, would entitle the Sellers to indemnity under this Section 8.2(b)(i); (ii) any breach or nonfulfillment of any covenant or agreement contained in or made pursuant to this Agreement or any Related Document by Buyer, or any allegations by third parties that, if true, would entitle the Sellers to indemnity under this Section 8.2(b)(ii); and (iii) any and all actions, suits, proceedings, claims, demands, assessments, judgments, costs and expenses, including reasonable legal fees and expenses, in enforcing this indemnity against Buyer.

(c) Damage Calculation . For purposes of calculating the amount of Damages subject to indemnification, it is understood and agreed between the parties hereto that to determine if there has been an inaccuracy or breach of a representation or warranty which is qualified as to materiality or material adverse effect by the party making such representation or warranty or contains an exception for matters that would not have a material adverse effect, then such representation or warranty shall be read as if it were not so qualified or contained no such exception.

8.3 Notice of Claims. Any party seeking indemnification shall give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of the facts and circumstances giving rise to the claim (the “ Notice ”) for which such indemnified party intends to assert a right to indemnification under this Agreement (“ Claims ”). Failure to give Notice shall not relieve any indemnifying party of any obligations which the indemnifying party may have to the indemnified party under this Article VIII , except to the extent that such failure has prejudiced the indemnifying party under the provisions for indemnification contained in this Agreement. The indemnifying party shall reimburse an indemnified party promptly after delivery of a Notice certifying that the indemnified party has incurred Damages after compliance with the terms of this Article VIII ; provided, however, the party receiving the Notice shall have the option to contest any such Damages or its obligations to indemnify therefor in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, at such party’s own cost and expense. Such option shall be exercised by the giving of notice by the exercising party to the other party within 20 days of receipt of a Notice. If the parties do not agree upon the amount of Damages, the party seeking indemnification may seek appropriate legal remedy in accordance with this Agreement.

8.4 Limitations on Indemnification Obligation. The maximum liability of the Sellers to Buyer, and of Buyer to the Sellers, for all Claims and Damages shall be $75,000 (the “ Cap ”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Cap shall not apply: (i) in the event of fraud or willful misrepresentation by the indemnifying party; or (ii) to indemnification obligations for Damages in connection with (x) a breach of the representations and warranties contained in Sections 3.1 (“ No Violation ”), 3.2 (“ Due Organization ”), 3.3 (“ Authorization ”), 3.5 (“ Consents ”), 3.8 (“ Taxes ”) and 3.12 (“ Assets and Title ”); (y) the indemnification obligations set forth in clauses (ii)–(vi) and (x)–(y) of Section 8.2(a) ; and (z) the indemnification obligations set forth in items (ii)–(iii) of Section 8.2(b) .

8.5 Assumption and Defense of Third-Party Action. If any Claim by Buyer hereunder arises out of a claim by a third party or Governmental Authority (a “ Third-Party Claim ”), the Sellers shall have the right, at their own expense, to participate in or assume control of the defense of the Third-Party Claim, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to Buyer, and to settle or compromise any such Third-Party Claim; provided, however, that such settlement or compromise shall be effected only with the consent of Buyer, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Buyer shall have the right to employ counsel to represent it if, in Buyer’s reasonable judgment, it is advisable for it to be represented by separate counsel, and in that event the fees and expenses of such separate counsel shall be paid by Buyer; provided, that if representation by the Sellers’ counsel would present a conflict of interest, then the Sellers shall reimburse Buyer for the fees and expenses of such separate counsel if a court of competent jurisdiction determines that a conflict of interest existed. Buyer shall have the right to control the defense of any Third-Party Claim, notwithstanding the election of the Sellers to control the defense, if it notifies the Sellers that it is assuming the defense of such Claim, whereupon the Sellers shall be relieved of their obligations under this Article VIII with respect to such Third-Party Claim. If the Sellers do not elect to assume control of the defense of any Third-Party Claim, the Sellers shall be bound by the results obtained by Buyer with respect to such Third-Party Claim. The Sellers agree to render such assistance as may reasonably be requested in order to insure the proper and adequate defense of any Third-Party Claim. It is expressly agreed and understood that any defense by the Sellers of any Third-Party Claims affecting or involving the Business shall not be conducted in a manner which adversely affects or impairs the value or usefulness of the Business or the Assigned Assets.

8.6 Remedies not Exclusive. The remedies provided herein shall be cumulative and shall not preclude the assertion by any party hereto of any other rights or the seeking of any other remedies, whether at law or in equity, against any other party hereto.
