If, within twenty (20) days after the delivery of the initial Allocation, the Sellers notify Buyer in writing that the Sellers object to the initial Allocation, Buyer and the Sellers shall use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve such dispute within twenty (20) days. In the event that Buyer and the Sellers are unable to resolve such dispute within twenty (20) days, Buyer and the Sellers shall jointly retain the Independent Accountant to resolve the disputed item. Upon resolution of the disputed items, the Allocation shall be adjusted to reflect such resolution. The costs, fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant shall be borne equally by Buyer and the Sellers. Buyer and the Sellers shall prepare and file all Tax Returns in a manner consistent with the Allocation and shall not take any position inconsistent with the Allocation except as may be required pursuant to a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code (or any similar provision of state, local or foreign Law).

If any Indemnified Party receives notice of the assertion or commencement of any Action made or brought by any Person who is not a party to this Agreement or an Affiliate of a party to this Agreement or a Representative of the foregoing (a “ Third Party Claim ”) against such Indemnified Party with respect to which the Indemnifying Party is obligated to provide indemnification under this Agreement, the Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice thereof, but in any event not later than thirty (30) calendar days after receipt of such notice of such Third Party Claim. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party forfeits rights or defenses by reason of such failure. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the Third Party Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. Without limiting the foregoing, the Demand Claims shall be deemed to be Third Party Claims hereunder. The following provisions shall apply to any Third Party Claim:

(i) The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to participate in, or by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party, to assume the defense of any Third Party Claim at the Indemnifying Party’s expense and by the Indemnifying Party’s own counsel, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate in good faith in such defense; provided that if the Indemnifying Party is the Seller Indemnitors, such Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to direct the defense of any Third Party Claim that seeks an injunction or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party.

(ii) In the event that the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third Party Claim pursuant to the provisions hereof, subject to Section 8.05(b) , the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to take such action as it deems necessary to avoid, dispute, defend, appeal or make counterclaims pertaining to any such Third Party Claim in the name and on behalf of the Indemnified Party.

(iii) The Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in the defense or negotiation of any Third Party Claim with counsel selected by it, subject to the Indemnifying Party’s right to control the defense thereof, if applicable. Except in the case of the Demand Claims (in which event the fees and disbursements of the Company’s and Buyer’s outside counsel shall be included in Losses in all events), the fees and disbursements of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party, provided that, if in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the Indemnified Party, (A) there are legal defenses available to an Indemnified Party that are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party; or (B) there exists a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party that cannot be waived, the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the fees and expenses of outside counsel to the Indemnified Party in each jurisdiction for which the Indemnified Party determines counsel is required (in which event such fees and expenses of outside counsel shall be included in Losses in all events).

(iv) Subject to the requirement in Section 8.05(a) to provide notice to the Indemnifying Party of any Third Party Claims, if the Indemnifying Party elects not to defend a Third Party Claim, fails to promptly notify the Indemnified Party in writing of its election to defend a Third Party Claim as provided in this Agreement, or fails to diligently prosecute the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party may, subject to Section 8.05(b) , assume and control the defense of such Third Party Claim and seek indemnification for any and all Losses based upon, arising from or relating to such Third Party Claim.

(v) The Seller Indemnitors and Buyer shall cooperate with each other in all reasonable respects in connection with the defense of any Third Party Claim, including making available (subject to the provisions of Section 5.06 ) records relating to such Third Party Claim and furnishing, without expense (other than reimbursement of actual out-of-pocket expenses) to the defending party, management employees of the non-defending party as may be reasonably necessary for the preparation of the defense of such Third Party Claim.

(b) Settlement of Third Party Claims . Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall not enter into settlement of any Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, except as provided in this Section 8.05(b) . The Indemnifying Party shall give prompt written notice to the Indemnified Party if the Indemnifying Party receives a firm offer to settle a Third Party Claim that the Indemnifying Party desires to accept. If such firm offer (i) does not involve any financial liability or obligation or any other obligation on the part of any Indemnified Party, and (ii) provides, in customary form, for the unconditional release of each Indemnified Party from all liabilities and obligations (monetary and otherwise) arising from such Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have ten (10) days after its receipt of such notice to consent to the settlement of such Third Party Claim as provided in such firm offer. If the Indemnified Party fails to consent to such firm offer within such ten (10) day period, the Indemnified Party may continue to contest or defend such Third Party Claim, in which event the maximum liability of the Indemnifying Party as to such Third Party Claim shall not exceed the amount set forth in such firm offer. If the Indemnified Party fails to consent to such firm offer and also fails to assume defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party may settle the Third Party Claim upon the terms set forth in such firm offer. If the Indemnified Party has assumed the defense of a Third Party Claim pursuant to Section 8.05(a)(iv) , it shall not agree to any settlement without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary expressed or implied in this Section 8.05(b) , with respect to any settlement of any Third Party Claim brought by any Franchisee, (A) the Seller Indemnitors shall have the right, in their reasonable discretion and without impeding or otherwise delaying the ability to settle such Third Party Claim, to determine and agree to the monetary amount of damages payable to the applicable Franchisees; (B) the Buyer Indemnitees shall have the right, in their reasonable discretion and without impeding or otherwise delaying the ability to settle such Third Party Claim, to determine any ongoing obligations of the Company with respect thereto, including with respect to the Franchisees.

(c) Direct Claims . Any Action by an Indemnified Party on account of a Loss which does not result from a Third Party Claim (a “ Direct Claim ”) shall be asserted by the Indemnified Party giving the Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice thereof, but in any event not later than thirty (30) days after the Indemnified Party becomes aware of such Direct Claim. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party forfeits rights or defenses by reason of such failure. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the Direct Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) days after its receipt of such notice to respond in writing to such Direct Claim. The Indemnified Party shall allow the Indemnifying Party and its professional advisors to investigate the matter or circumstance alleged to give rise to the Direct Claim, and whether and to what extent any amount is payable in respect of the Direct Claim and the Indemnified Party shall assist the Indemnifying Party’s investigation by giving such information and assistance (including access to the Company’s premises and personnel and the right to examine and copy any accounts, documents or records) as the Indemnifying Party or any of its professional advisors may reasonably request. If the Indemnifying Party does not so respond within such thirty (30) day period, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have rejected such claim, in which case the Indemnified Party shall be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to the Indemnified Party on the terms and subject to the provisions of this Agreement.

(d) Tax Claims . Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the control of any claim, assertion, event or proceeding in respect of Taxes of the Company (including, but not limited to, any such claim in respect of a breach of the representations and warranties in Section 3.22 hereof or any breach or violation of or failure to fully perform any covenant, agreement, undertaking or obligation in ARTICLE VI) shall be governed exclusively by ARTICLE VI.

Section 8.06 Payments; Release from Escrow.

(a) Once a Loss is agreed to by the Indemnifying Party or finally adjudicated to be payable pursuant to this ARTICLE VIII, subject to Section 8.06(b) , the Indemnifying Party shall satisfy its obligations within fifteen (15) Business Days of such final, non-appealable adjudication by wire transfer of immediately available funds. The parties hereto agree that should an Indemnifying Party not make full payment of any such obligations within such fifteen (15) Business Day period, any amount payable shall accrue interest from and including the date of agreement of the Indemnifying Party or final, non-appealable adjudication to but excluding the date such payment has been made at a rate per annum equal to ten percent (10%). Such interest shall be calculated daily on the basis of a 365 day year and the actual number of days elapsed, without compounding.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Seller Indemnitors are the Indemnifying Party, then Seller Units with an aggregate Original Issue Price equal to the indemnified amount of the Loss (i.e., after applying the Basket and/or the Cap if applicable) shall be released from escrow to Buyer and cancelled by Buyer, unless, within five (5) Business Days after such Loss is determined, the Seller Indemnitors notify Buyer in writing that they prefer to retain such Seller Units and pay the obligation in cash, in which event such Seller Indemnitors shall satisfy such obligations within ten (10) Business Days after such notice to Buyer by wire transfer of immediately available funds. If the aggregate indemnifiable Loss(es) payable by Seller Indemnitors exceeds the aggregate Original Issue Price of the Seller Units then held in escrow, the Seller Indemnitors shall promptly (and in any event within the timeframe described above) pay to Buyer, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, an amount equal to the difference between the indemnifiable Loss(es) and the Original Issue Price of the Units; provided that, if Seller Units have previously been released from escrow pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, Sellers may, in their discretion, pay all or part of such difference by delivery to Buyer of Seller Units with a value, based on the Original Issue Price, equal to all or part of such difference.

(c) On the Business Day after the first anniversary of the Closing Date, one-half (1/2) of the Seller Units then held in escrow shall be issued and released to Sellers and the other Persons entitled thereto, pro rata in accordance with their respective interests therein as set forth in the Closing Worksheet, provided that claims for indemnification have not been asserted as of such date by any one or more Buyer Indemnitees, the amount of which exceeds the aggregate value of the remaining one-half (1/2) of the Seller Units, valued at the Original Issue Price. On the Business Day after the second anniversary of the Closing Date, the Seller Units then held in escrow shall be issued and released to Sellers and the other Persons entitled thereto, pro rata in accordance with their respective interests therein as set forth in the Closing Worksheet; provided that, if one or more Buyer Indemnitees has in good faith asserted a claim for indemnification of any Loss by the Seller Indemnitors prior to such date, Seller Units with an Original Issue Price equal to the claimed Loss shall be retained in escrow until the resolution of such claim, at which time such Seller Units shall be released to Buyer and/or Sellers, as applicable.

Section 8.07 Tax Treatment of Indemnification Payments. All indemnification payments made under this Agreement shall be treated by the parties as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Law.

Section 8.08 Effect of Investigation. The representations, warranties and covenants of the Indemnifying Party, and the Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification with respect thereto, shall not be affected or deemed waived by reason of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Party (including by any of its Representatives) or by reason of the fact that the Indemnified Party or any of its Representatives knew or should have known that any such representation or warranty is, was or might be inaccurate or by reason of the Indemnified Party’s waiver of any condition set forth in Section 7.02 or Section 7.03 , as the case may be.

Section 8.09 Exclusive Remedies; Appointment of Representative for Sellers.

(a) Exclusive Remedies . Subject to Section 5.07 and Section 10.11 , the parties acknowledge and agree that their sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all claims (other than claims arising from fraud, criminal activity or willful misconduct on the part of a party hereto in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement, shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in ARTICLE VI and this ARTICLE VIII. In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted under Law, any and all rights, claims and causes of action for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement it may have against the other parties hereto and their Affiliates and each of their respective Representatives arising under or based upon any Law, except pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in ARTICLE VI and this ARTICLE VIII. Nothing in this Section 8.09(a) shall limit any Person’s right to seek and obtain any equitable relief to which any Person shall be entitled or to seek any remedy on account of any party’s fraudulent, criminal or intentional misconduct.

(b) Sellers’ Representative . Notwithstanding anything to the contrary expressed or implied in this ARTICLE VIII, Sellers agree that for all purposes of this ARTICLE VIII, John Metz shall act for and on behalf of all Sellers, and Sellers hereby appoint John Metz to serve as their representative and attorney-in-fact for all purposes of this ARTICLE VIII, which appointment is coupled with an interest; provided that Sellers may, at any time by written notice to Buyer executed by at least a majority of Sellers, appoint a different individual to act as their representative and attorney-in-fact for Sellers for all purposes of this ARTICLE VIII and such appointment will be coupled with an interest.
