For purposes of this Agreement, “principal executive officer” and “principal financial officer” shall have the meanings given to such terms in the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Company has no outstanding (nor has arranged or modified since the enactment of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act) any “extensions of credit” (within the meaning of Section 402 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act) to directors or executive officers (as defined in Rule 3b-7 under the Exchange Act) of Company. Company is otherwise in compliance with all applicable provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the applicable listing and corporate governance rules of OTC Bulletin Board, except for any non-compliance that would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

regulation applicable to Purchaser or any of its properties or assets, except for such violations which do not have, in the aggregate, any material adverse effect.

8.                  Remedies for Breaches of This Agreement.

 

 
 

(a)                Survival of Representations and Warranties .

(i)                 In the event Purchaser breaches any of its representations, warranties or covenants contained herein, Purchaser shall indemnify Sellers and hold them harmless from and against the entirety of any Adverse Consequences (as defined above) any Seller may suffer resulting from, arising out of, relating to, in the nature of, or caused by the breach

(d)               Matters Involving Third Parties .

 

(i)                 If any third party shall notify any Party (such notified Party, the “ Indemnified Party ”) with respect to any matter (a “ Third Party Claim ”) which may give rise to a claim for indemnification against any other Party (the “ Indemnifying Party ”) under this Section 9 , then the Indemnified Party shall promptly notify each Indemnifying Party thereof in writing; provided, however, that no delay on the part of the Indemnified Party in notifying any Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party from any obligation hereunder unless (and then solely to the extent) the Indemnifying Party thereby is prejudiced.

 

(ii)               Any Indemnifying Party will have the right to defend the Indemnified Party against the Third Party Claim with counsel of its choice reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party so long as (A) the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party in writing within ten days after the Indemnified Party has given notice of the Third Party Claim that the Indemnifying Party will indemnify the Indemnified Party from and against the entirety of any Adverse Consequences the Indemnified Party may suffer resulting from, arising out of, relating to, in the nature of, or caused by the Third Party Claim, (B) the Indemnifying Party provides the Indemnified Party with evidence reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party that the Indemnifying Party will have the financial resources to defend against the Third Party Claim and fulfill its indemnification obligations hereunder, (C) the Third Party Claim involves only money damages and does not seek an injunction or other equitable relief, (D) settlement of, or an adverse judgment with respect to, the Third Party Claim is not, in the good faith judgment of the Indemnified Party, likely to establish a precedential custom or practice adverse to the continuing business interests of the Indemnified Party, and (E) the Indemnifying Party conducts the defense of the Third Party Claim actively and diligently.

 

(iii)             So long as the Indemnifying Party is conducting the defense of the Third Party Claim in accordance with Section 9(d)(ii) , (A) the Indemnified Party may retain separate co-counsel at its sole cost and expense and participate in the defense of the Third Party Claim, (B) the

(iv)             In the event any of the conditions in Section 9(d)(ii) is or becomes unsatisfied, however, (A) the Indemnified Party may defend against, and consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to, the Third Party Claim in any manner it reasonably may deem appropriate (and the Indemnified Party need not consult with, or obtain any consent from, any Indemnifying Party in connection therewith), (B) the Indemnifying Party will reimburse the Indemnified Party promptly and periodically for the costs of defending against the Third Party Claim (including attorneys' fees and expenses), and (C) the Indemnifying Party will remain responsible for any Adverse Consequences the Indemnified Party may suffer resulting from, arising out of, relating to, in the nature of, or caused by the Third Party Claim to the fullest extent provided in this Section 9 .

(i)                 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of California without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of California.

 

(j)                 Amendments and Waivers . No amendment of any provision of this Agreement shall be valid unless it is in writing and signed by Purchaser and Sellers. No waiver by any Party of any default, misrepresentation, or breach of a representation, warranty or covenant hereunder, intentional or not, shall be deemed to extend to any prior or subsequent default, misrepresentation, or breach hereunder or affect in any way any rights arising by virtue of any such prior or subsequent occurrence.

 

(k)               Severability . Any term or provision of this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction.

The word “including” shall mean including without limitation. The

 
 

Parties intend that each representation, warranty, and covenant contained herein shall have independent significance. If any Party has breached any representation, warranty, or covenant contained herein in any respect, the fact that there exists another representation, warranty, or covenant relating to the same subject matter (regardless of the relative levels of specificity) which the Party has not breached shall not detract from or mitigate the fact that the Party is in breach of the first representation, warranty, or covenant. Nothing in any disclosure schedules attached hereto shall be deemed adequate to disclose an exception to a representation or warranty made herein, however, unless such schedule identifies the exception with particularity and describes the relevant facts in detail. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the mere listing (or inclusion of a copy) of a document or other item in a disclosure schedule (if any), shall not be deemed adequate to disclose an exception to a representation or warranty made herein (unless the representation or warranty has to do with the existence of the document or other item itself).

(o)               Specific Performance .

(p)               Submission to Jurisdiction . Each of the Parties submits to the jurisdiction of any state or federal court in Los Angeles County, California, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement and agrees that all claims in respect of the action or proceeding may be heard and determined in any such court. Each of the Parties waives any defense of inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any action or proceeding so brought and waives any bond, surety, or other security that might be required of any other Party with respect thereto.

 

11.              Post-Closing Agreements.

 

(a)                Board of Directors of Company . For thirty (30) days following Closing, if so requested by Purchaser, Clark shall remain a director of the Company, during which time he may abstain from voting on any matters that come before the Board of Directors, and the Company shall pay a director’s fee to Clark at Closing in the amount of Two Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($2,500.00). Purchaser shall indemnify Clark and hold him harmless from and against the entirety of any Adverse Consequences (as defined above) Clark may suffer resulting from, arising out of or relating to any claim against Clark in his capacity as a director of the Company following Closing and during the 30-day period following Closing during which he will serve as a director of the Company. Purchaser, its successors-in-interest, affiliates and assigns, hereby, jointly and severally,

 
 

fully releases, discharges and acquits Clark and his attorneys, employees, affiliated corporations and entities, and each of their respective successors and assigns from all actions, causes of action, suits, debts, dues, sums of money, accounts, reckonings, bonds, bills, specialties, covenants, contracts, controversies, agreements, promises, variances, trespasses, damages, judgments, extents, executions, claims, and demands of any kind or nature whatsoever, at law, admiralty or in equity which such Purchaser ever had, now have or hereafter can, shall or may have, which are or may be based upon any facts, acts, conduct, representations, omissions, contracts, claims, events, causes, matters or things of any kind or character, whatsoever, existing or occurring at any time during the period following Closing that Clark serves as a director of the Company.

 

(b)               Stockholder Signature Indemnity . The Company has provided stockholder signature indemnities to Island Stock Transfer, the Company’s transfer agent, attesting to the authenticity of certain stockholder signatures in connection with assignments of stock certificates by Company stockholders outside the United States without a medallion-guaranteed signature. To the extent Company or Purchaser suffers any loss in connection with the Company’s stockholder signature indemnity provided to Island Stock Transfer, Clark hereby agrees to indemnify Company and Purchaser and shall hold Company and Purchaser harmless from and against the entirety of any Adverse Consequences (as defined above) that Company or Purchaser may suffer resulting from, arising out of or relating to any claim involving the authenticity of, or any instruction provided by, the use and acceptance of such non-medallion guaranteed signature.
