Except as set forth on Section 2.3 of the Buyer’s Disclosure Schedule, neither the execution nor delivery by Buyer or Merger Sub of this Agreement or the Ancillary Documents to which Buyer or Merger Sub is a party nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby will:

(a) conflict with, or result in a breach of any provision of the Organizational Documents of Buyer or Merger Sub;

(b) materially violate, or conflict with, or result in a material breach of, any provision of, or constitute a material default (or an event which, with the giving of notice, the passage of time or otherwise, would constitute a default) or result in any loss of any material benefit under, or entitle any Person (with the giving of notice, the passage of time or otherwise) to terminate, accelerate or call a default under, or result in the creation of any Encumbrance upon any of the material properties or assets of Buyer or Merger Sub under, any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any Contract to which Buyer or Merger Sub is a party or by which its assets or properties are bound;

(a) In the event that any claim or demand for which Buyer or any Seller (“Indemnitor”) would be liable to an indemnified party (“Indemnitee”) hereunder is asserted against or sought to be collected from an Indemnitee (whether directly by such Indemnitee or by a third party), Buyer or the Seller Representative, as applicable, shall promptly notify Indemnitor of such claim or demand, specifying the nature of such claim or demand and the amount or the estimated amount thereof to the extent then feasible (which estimate shall not be conclusive of the final amount of such claim and demand) (the “Claim Notice”); provided that no defect in the prompt delivery of or the information contained in such Claim Notice will relieve such Indemnitor from any obligation under this Article 8, except to the extent such failure materially prejudices such Indemnitor. Buyer or the Seller Representative, as applicable, shall then have twenty (20) Business Days from the delivery of the Claim Notice (the “Notice Period”) to notify the Indemnitee (x) whether or not it disputes its liability to the Indemnitee hereunder with respect to such claim or demand and (y) whether or not it desires, at its sole cost and expense, to defend the Indemnitee against such claim or demand.

(i) If the Indemnitor disputes its liability with respect to such claim or demand or the amount thereof, such claim or demand shall not be settled without the prior written consent of the Indemnitor (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(ii) In the event that the Indemnitor notifies the Indemnitee within the Notice Period that it desires to defend the Indemnitee against such claim or demand, then, except as hereinafter provided, the Indemnitor shall have the right to defend the Indemnitee by appropriate proceedings; provided, however, the Indemnitor shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), consent to the entry of any judgment against the Indemnitee or enter into any settlement or compromise unless (A) as an unconditional term thereof, the claimant or plaintiff to the Indemnitee grants a full release of Indemnitee and its Affiliates, in form and substance satisfactory to the Indemnitee, from all liability in respect of such claim or demand; (B) there is no finding or admission of any violation of applicable Law; and (C) the sole relief provided is monetary damages that have been in full deposited (in cash or shares of Buyer Preferred Stock) by Indemnitor into a special account notified to the Indemnitee. If any Indemnitee desires to participate in, but not control, any such defense or settlement, it may do so at its sole cost and expense.

(iii) The Indemnitor shall not be entitled to assume control of the defense of a claim if: (A) any such claim or demand or the litigation or resolution of any such claim or demand would reasonably be expected to involve equitable or injunctive relief, or would reasonably be expected to impose criminal liability or criminal damages on Indemnitee; (B) based upon the advice of counsel to the Indemnitee, a non-waivable conflict of interest exists between the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee; (C) such claim is brought by a Governmental Authority; or (D) the Indemnitor has failed or is failing to prosecute and defend vigorously such claim; provided, however, that the Indemnitee shall not settle any such claim or demand without the prior written consent of the Indemnitor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If the Indemnitee should elect to exercise such right to assume control of the defense or settlement of a claim, the Indemnitor shall have the right to participate in, but not control, the defense or settlement of such claim or demand, at its sole cost and expense.

(iv) If the Indemnitor elects not to defend the Indemnitee against such claim or demand, whether by not giving the Indemnitee timely notice as provided above or otherwise, then the amount of any such claim or demand, or if the same be defended by the Indemnitor or by the Indemnitee (but no Indemnitee shall have any obligation to defend any such claim or demand) then that portion thereof as to which such defense is unsuccessful, in each case shall be conclusively deemed to be a liability of the Indemnitor hereunder, unless the Indemnitor shall have disputed its liability to the Indemnitee hereunder, as provided in clause (i) above.

(v) For all purposes of this Article 8, the Indemnitor and Indemnitee shall reasonably cooperate with, and make available to, the other Party and its Representatives, upon reasonable prior notice, information, records and data, and shall permit reasonable access during normal business hours to its facilities and personnel, in each case, as may be reasonably required in connection with the resolution of such disputes; provided that such access does not unreasonably interfere with the conduct of the business of such party and its Affiliates and materials may be redacted as necessary to address reasonable attorney client or other privilege or bona fide confidentiality concerns. In connection therewith, each Party agrees that (A) it will use its commercially reasonable efforts, in respect of any claim in which it has assumed or participated in the defense, to avoid production of confidential information (consistent with applicable Law and applicable rules of procedure), and (B) all communications between a Party hereto and counsel responsible for or participating in the defense of any claim shall, to the extent possible, be made so as to preserve any applicable attorney-client or work-product privilege.

(c) Adjustments to Merger Consideration. Any payment made to or on behalf of a party pursuant to Article 8 shall be treated by Buyer and Sellers for U.S. federal and applicable state and local income Tax purposes as an adjustment to the Merger Consideration, and the Parties agree not to take any position inconsistent therewith, unless otherwise required by applicable Law.

(d) Recourse for Payments to the Buyer Indemnified Parties. Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 8.4, to the extent indemnifiable Losses of any Buyer Indemnified Party are to be paid by Sellers, such payment may be paid by Sellers, at the Sellers’ sole discretion, by any combination of (i) the release of the Escrow Stock (valued at the Agreed Stock Value) to Buyer, (ii) the transfer of Buyer Preferred Stock to Buyer, and/or (ii) by wire transfer of immediately available funds in accordance with wire instructions provided in writing by Buyer.

(e) Escrow Release and Satisfaction of Claims. Subject to any other limitations set forth herein and any applicable terms and conditions set forth in the Escrow Agreement:

(ii) Within ten (10) Business Days of the determination pursuant to ‎Section 8.3(b) of the amount of Losses with respect to which any Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification with respect to any Claim (or at such later other time as the Indemnitee shall agree), Buyer shall pay to the Seller Indemnified Parties or the Sellers shall pay to Buyer (except in the case where payment has been already effected from the Escrow Account or by transfer of Buyer Preferred Stock) as applicable, an amount equal to the amount of such Losses by wire transfer of immediately available funds in accordance with wire instructions provided in writing by the applicable Indemnitee.

(f) Payments by an Indemnitor pursuant to subsection (e) in respect of any Loss shall be limited to the amount of any liability or damage that remains after deducting therefrom any insurance proceeds and any indemnity, contribution or other similar payment actually received by the Indemnitee in respect of any such claim, less any related costs and expenses. Promptly after the realization of any insurance proceeds, indemnity, contribution or other similar payment, the Indemnitee shall reimburse the Indemnitor for such reduction in Losses for which the Indemnitee was indemnified prior to the realization of reduction of such Losses.

Section 8.4 Limitations on Indemnification.

Section 9.7 Specific Performance.

Unless otherwise specifically agreed in writing to the contrary: (a) the failure or delay of any Party at any time to require performance by the other of any provision of this Agreement will not affect such Party’s right thereafter to enforce the same; (b) no waiver by any Party of any default by any other Party will be valid unless in writing and acknowledged by an authorized representative of the non-defaulting Party, and no such waiver will be taken or held to be a waiver by such Party of any other preceding or subsequent default; and (c) no extension of time granted by any Party for the performance of any obligation or act by any other Party will be deemed to be an extension of time for the performance of any other obligation or act hereunder.

Section 9.13 Disclosure Schedules. Matters reflected in the Sellers’ Disclosure Schedule and Buyer’s Disclosure Schedule are not necessarily limited to matters required by this Agreement to be reflected in the Sellers’ Disclosure Schedule or Buyer’s Disclosure Schedule. To the extent any such additional matters are included, they are included for informational purposes and do not necessarily include other matters of a similar nature. Headings and subheadings have been inserted in the Sellers’ Disclosure Schedule and the Buyer’s Disclosure Schedule for convenience of reference only and shall not have the effect of amending or changing the express description thereof as set forth in this Agreement. Disclosure of any fact or item in this Agreement or the Sellers’ Disclosure Schedule and the Buyer’s Disclosure Schedule referenced by a particular Section in this Agreement shall be deemed to have been disclosed with respect to every other Section in this Agreement to the extent that it is reasonably apparent from the face of such disclosure that such disclosure would apply to such other sections. Neither the specification of any dollar amount in the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement nor the inclusion of any specific item in the Sellers’ Disclosure Schedule or the Buyer’s Disclosure Schedule is intended to imply that such amounts, higher or lower amounts, or the item so included or other items, are or are not material or are within or outside the Ordinary Course of Business, and no Party shall use the fact of the setting forth of such amounts or the fact of the inclusion of any such item in the Sellers’ Disclosure Schedule or Buyer’s Disclosure Schedule in any dispute or controversy between the Parties as to whether any obligation, item or matter is or is not required to be disclosed (including, whether such amounts or items are or are not material), or may constitute an event or condition which would reasonably be considered to have a Material Adverse Effect. No matter or item disclosed on the Sellers’ Disclosure Schedule or the Buyer’s Disclosure Schedule admitting or indicating a possible breach or violation of any Contract, Law or Order shall be construed as an admission or indication that an actual breach or violation exists, has actually occurred or will occur. Sellers do not assume any responsibility to any Person that is not a party to this Agreement for the accuracy of any information set forth in the Sellers’ Disclosure Schedule. Buyer does not assume any responsibility to any Person that is not a party to this Agreement for the accuracy of any information set forth in the Buyer’s Disclosure Schedule. Subject to applicable law, the information on the Sellers’ Disclosure Schedule and the Buyer’s Disclosure Schedule is disclosed in confidence for the purposes contemplated in this Agreement and is subject to the confidentiality provisions of any other agreements entered into by the Parties or their Affiliates. Moreover, without limiting the rights of the other Parties to this Agreement with respect to such information, in disclosing the information in the Sellers’ Disclosure Schedule or the Buyer’s Disclosure Schedule, each Seller and Buyer expressly does not waive any attorney-client privilege associated with such information or any protection afforded by the work-product doctrine with respect to any of the matters disclosed or discussed therein.

Section 9.14 Construction. For purposes of this Agreement, except as specified otherwise, the words “hereof,” “herein,” “hereunder” and words of similar import will refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular Section or provision of this Agreement, and reference to a particular Section of this Agreement will include all subsections thereof. References to any Person includes such Person’s successors and assigns but, if applicable, only if such successors and assigns are permitted by this Agreement, and an express reference to a Person in a particular capacity excludes such Person in any other capacity. Any accounting term used and not otherwise defined in this Agreement or any Ancillary Document has the meaning assigned to such term in accordance with GAAP. The words “including,” “include” or other derivations thereof mean “including without limitation” and/or “including but not limited to”. Definitions will be equally applicable to both the singular and plural forms of the terms defined, and references to the masculine, feminine or neuter gender will include each other gender. All references in this Agreement to any Section, Exhibit or Schedule will, unless otherwise specified, be deemed to be a reference to a Section, Exhibit or Schedule of or to this Agreement, in each case as such may be amended in accordance herewith, all of which are made a part of this Agreement. References to any agreement, document or instrument means such agreement, document or instrument as amended or modified and in effect from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof. References to any Law means such Law as amended modified, codified, replaced or reenacted, in whole or in part, and in effect as of the time of such reference, including rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. The words “made available” or words of similar import with respect to any item made available by Sellers shall mean delivered by such Person or posted prior to the execution of this Agreement in the online data room no later than two (2) Business Days prior to the date hereof and remaining available on such data site through the date hereof. All references to “Dollars” or “$” mean U.S. Dollars unless otherwise specified. In the computation of periods of time from a specified date to a later specified date, the word “from” means “from and including” and the words “to” and “until” mean “to but excluding” and the word “through” means “to and including.” Whenever the last day for the exercise of any privilege or the discharge of any duty hereunder shall fall upon a day that is not a Business Day, the party having such privilege or duty may exercise such privilege or discharge such duty on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day. Except when used together with the word “either” or otherwise for the purpose of identifying mutually exclusive alternatives, the term “or” has the inclusive meaning represented by the phrase “and/or.” The words “writing,” “written” and comparable terms refer to printing, typing and other means of reproducing words (including electronic media) in a visible form. The word “extent” in the phrase “to the extent” shall mean the degree to which a subject or other things extends, and such phrase shall not mean simply “if.”

Section 9.15 Conflict Waiver; Attorney-Client Privilege and Related Matters.

(a) The Parties acknowledge that Clark Hill PLC (such law firm, and any predecessor of or successor to any such law firm, the “Seller Law Firm”) has acted as legal counsel to Sellers and the Company in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution, and delivery of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. Buyer and the Company agree that, following the Closing, such representation, and any other representation of Sellers, the Company or any Affiliate of any Seller by the Seller Law Firm on or prior to the Closing Date (whether or not relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby), shall not preclude the Seller Law Firm from serving as legal counsel to any Seller or any Affiliate of any of Seller, or any Person who at any time prior to the Closing was a member, partner, stockholder, director, officer, or employee of the Company or any Seller, including in connection with any litigation, claim, or obligation arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (including any of the foregoing in which the interests of any Seller or any Affiliate of any Seller, or any such other Person may be directly adverse to Buyer or any of its post-Closing Affiliates (including the Company)). Buyer and the Company each hereby (A) consents to any such post-Closing representation by the Seller Law Firm and waives any conflict of interest arising from any prior or other representation referred to above (whether or not such prior or other representation related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby), and (B) agrees to cause its Affiliates to consent to and waive any conflict of interest arising from any such prior or other representation. Neither Buyer nor any of its post-Closing Affiliates shall seek to have the Seller Law Firm disqualified from any such post-Closing representation based on any such prior or other representation by the Seller Law Firm of the Company, any Seller or any Affiliate of any of them.

(b) Buyer and the Company consent to the disclosure by the Seller Law Firm to Sellers (or any Affiliate or Representative thereof) of any information learned by the Seller Law Firm in the course of its representation of the Company, any Seller, or any of their respective Affiliates at any time prior to the consummation of the Closing, whether or not such information is subject to the attorney-client privilege of the Company and/or the Seller Law Firm’s duties of confidentiality as to the Company and whether such disclosure is made before or after the Closing.

(c) From and after the consummation of the Closing:

(i) All communications occurring on or prior to the Closing between a Seller or the Company, on the one hand, and the Seller Law Firm, on the other hand, whether relating to the negotiation, preparation, execution, and delivery of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or otherwise (the “Privileged Communications”) shall be deemed to be attorney-client privileged, and (A) such privilege, (B) the attorney work product protection, and (C) the expectation of client confidence relating to the Privileged Communications shall belong solely to and be controlled by Sellers and shall not pass to or be claimed by Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including, after the Closing, the Company). Accordingly, neither Buyer not the Company shall have access to any Privileged Communications or to the files of the Seller Law Firm relating to any such engagement, nor may Buyer or the Company use or rely on any Privileged Communications in any action or proceeding against or involving any Seller or any Affiliate of any Seller. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, from and after the Closing, (A) Sellers (and not Buyer or the Company) shall be the sole holders of the attorney-client privilege with respect to the Privileged Communications and any such engagement, and neither Buyer nor the Company shall be a holder thereof, (B) to the extent that files of the Seller Law Firm in respect of any such engagement constitute property of the client, only Sellers (and not Buyer or the Company) shall hold such property rights, and (C) the Seller Law Firm shall have no duty whatsoever to reveal or disclose any such attorney-client communications or files to Buyer or the Company by reason of any attorney-client relationship between the Seller Law Firm and any Seller, the Company, or any Affiliate of any of them, or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that, after the consummation of the Closing, a dispute arises between Buyer or any of its post-Closing Affiliates, on the one hand, and a third party other than Seller or any Affiliate of any of them, on the other hand, Buyer and its post-Closing Affiliates may assert the attorney-client privilege to prevent disclosure of confidential communications to such third party; provided, however, that Buyer and the Company may not waive any such privilege without the prior written consent of Sellers. In the event that, after consummation of the Closing, Buyer or any of its post-Closing Affiliates are legally required to access or obtain a copy of all or a portion of the Privileged Communications, then, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, Buyer shall immediately (and, in any event, within five (5) Business Days) notify Sellers in writing so that Sellers can seek a protective order at the sole cost and expense of Sellers.

(d) Each Party acknowledges that the covenants, consents, and waivers set forth in this Section 9.15 are voluntary and have been carefully considered, and that such Party has consulted with its own legal counsel or has been advised that it should do so in connection with the terms of this Section 9.15.

(e) The covenants, consents, and waivers set forth in this Section 9.15 shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which the Seller Law Firm is entitled pursuant to Law, Contract, or otherwise.

(f) This Section 9.15 is intended for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, Sellers and the Seller Law Firm. This Section 9.15 is irrevocable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no provision of this Section 9.15 may be amended, waived, or modified without the prior written consent of the Seller Law Firm.
