of Escrowed Materials.
(a) Release/Conditions
of Release
- Escrow
Associates shall release the Escrowed Materials to Beneficiary upon compliance
with the procedures described in Sections 6(b) through 6(d) as applicable,
following the occurrence of either of the following events (each individually
and collectively, a “Release
Event”):
| (i) |
Purchase
Agreement Breach. Following both (A) written notice by Beneficiary
to
Depositor and Buyer of a material breach by Buyer of its obligations
under
the Purchase Agreement (a “Purchase Agreement Breach”) and (B) Buyer's
failure to cure the same within thirty (30) days after written notice
of
such breach is given by Beneficiary to Depositor and Buyer (the “Cure
Period”); or
|
| (ii) |
License
Agreement Breach. Following both (A) written notice by Beneficiary
to
Lawriter and Buyer of a material breach on the part of Lawriter of
its
obligations under the License Agreement and failure to cure the same
within the Cure Period;
|
provided,
however,
that
any such Cure Period applicable to a Purchase Agreement Breach relating to
a
performance (as opposed to a payment) obligation shall toll during the pendency
of any legal action filed for the purpose of determining the existence of any
such asserted breach (the losing party to any such dispute shall have the
obligation to pay the prevailing party’s costs and expenses incurred in
connection with any such dispute); provided,
further,
that if
it is determined by any such tribunal that the alleged breach did in fact occur,
then Depositor or Buyer, as the case may be, shall have that portion of the
Cure
Period that remained immediately prior to the filing of such dispute to cure
the
same.
(b) Procedures
Governing Release.
The
Escrowed Materials will be released to Beneficiary as provided in Section (c)

each such Member or In-State Entity having first agreed in writing to such
terms
and conditions as are usual and customary for the use by end-users. The

Parties”) shall in no event constitute a breach of (i) Sections 6(e)(1)(i) or
(ii) of the Purchase Agreement; (ii) Section 6(e)(iii) of the Purchase
Agreement, provided,
however,
that
such exception hereunder to Section 6(e)(iii) is limited to no more than three
(3) of Depositor’s employees who were also employed by it as of the Closing
Date; and (iii) Section 6(e)(1)(iv) of the Purchase Agreement, but only if
and
to the extent that any such inducement or solicitation otherwise covered thereby
is directly related to the Permitted Use and for no other purpose whatsoever.

to
Beneficiary in the event of a Consortium Breach or Purchase Agreement Breach,
Beneficiary shall have all right, title, and interest in and to the copy of
Escrowed Materials released to Beneficiary, including the right and license
to
use, sell, or otherwise dispose of the Escrowed Materials or copies thereof
in
any manner it sees fit and no Beneficiary Party shall have any further
obligation under Section 6(e)(1) of the Purchase Agreement; provided,
however,
that
such exception hereunder to Section 6(e)(1)(iii) of the Purchase Agreement
is
limited to only those employees who were employees of Depositor as of the
Closing Date.
(f) EM
Information. Following the release of the Escrowed Materials to Beneficiary,
the
use by all or any one of the Beneficiary Parties of EM information in connection
with the Permitted Use (in the case of a License Agreement Breach) or in any
manner the Beneficiary Parties shall deem appropriate (in the case of a
Consortium Breach or Purchase Agreement Breach) shall not constitute a breach
of
Section 6(d)(ii) of the Purchase Agreement; provided, however, that the
Beneficiary Parties shall not use any EM Information for the purpose of trading
in the securities of Buyer in violation of any applicable securities
laws.
(g) Xxxxx.

Courts sitting in the County of Xxxxxx in the State of Georgia in connection

application of any law other than Georgia Law (except in the case where Federal
law might apply) with respect to any matter or dispute arising under or in
connection with this Agreement; (2) not challenge the application of either
Georgia Law or jurisdiction by or of the Georgia Courts (or both); and (3)

of any and all pleadings and other documents as may be necessary to obtain
or
secure the application of Georgia Law or jurisdiction by or of the Georgia
Court
(or both).

Georgia Courts, the law of the State of South Carolina shall apply and
jurisdiction for any and all disputes or other matters arising under this
Agreement shall be moved to the State of South Carolina. Subject to the
provisions of the following paragraph of this Section 7, should Collexis,

Page

by
Beneficiary or fail to support the application of Georgia Law or jurisdiction
by
or of the Georgia Courts, the law of the State of Ohio shall apply and
jurisdiction for any and all disputes or other matters arising under this
Agreement shall be moved to the State of Ohio. In
the

event that the Georgia Courts shall determine that the Georgia Courts are not
the proper forum for disputes arising under this Agreement, Beneficiary may
pursue jurisdiction over Collexis and Acquisition Sub in any court other than

court located in the State of Ohio, and Collexis and Acquisition Sub may pursue
jurisdiction over Beneficiary in any court other than a court located in the
