If Holdings delivers an Objection Notice to Majority Buyer during the Review Period, then Holdings and Majority Buyer shall undertake in good faith to agree on the amount of the actual Purchase Price Adjustment no later than 30 days after the date on which Holdings delivered such Objection Notice to Majority Buyer. In the event that the Majority Buyer and Holdings do not reach an agreement within such period of time, they shall refer the remaining disputed matters to KPMG Mexico Xxxxxxxx Xxxxx, S.C., or if KPMG Mexico Xxxxxxxx Xxxxx, S.C. is unable or unwilling to perform its obligations under this Section 2.5(c), such other nationally-recognized independent accounting firm as is mutually agreed on by Holdings and Majority Buyer (the “Accounting Firm”). Holdings and Majority Buyer shall each deliver simultaneously to the Accounting Firm (i) the Objection Notice and such work papers, invoices and other reports and information relating to the disputed matters as the Accounting Firm may request and (ii) such Party’s proposed resolution of the disputed matters and any materials it wishes to present to justify the resolution it so presents. Each Party shall be afforded the opportunity to discuss the disputed matters with the Accounting Firm. The Accounting Firm shall act as an expert (and not as an arbitrator) for the limited purpose of determining the specific disputed matters submitted by either Holdings or Majority Buyer to the Accounting Firm and any other items affected by the resolution of those disputed matters, and whether and to what extent, if any, the Purchase Price Adjustment requires adjustment as a result of the resolution of those disputed matters. The Accounting Firm may not award damages or penalties. The Accounting Firm’s determination shall be made within 30 days after submission of the disputed matters and shall be final and binding on all Parties, without right of appeal. In determining the proper amount of the Purchase Price Adjustment, the Accounting Firm shall only review the items of the Objection Notice subject of a dispute, and in determining the value of each such disputed item, shall not determine that any such disputed item is larger than the highest amount claimed by Majority Buyer and Holdings or smaller than the lowest amount claims by Majority Buyer and Holdings, as applicable. The costs and expenses of the Accounting Firm in connection with resolving such disputed matters will be borne by the Parties in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Sellers and Majority Buyer from the resolution of such dispute. For instance, if Holdings challenges the calculation of the Net Working Capital in the Final Adjustment Statement by an amount of $100,000, but the Accounting Firm determines that Holdings has a valid claim for only $40,000, then Majority Buyer shall bear 40% of the fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm and the Sellers shall bear the other 60% of such fees and expenses.

(d)
Within ten days after the earlier of (i) the expiration of the Review Period without delivery of any Objection Notice or (ii) the date on which Holdings and Majority Buyer, or the Accounting Firm, as applicable, finally determine the actual Purchase Price Adjustment, the Sellers or Majority Buyer, as applicable, shall make or cause to be distributed, as applicable, a true-up payment to the other (in accordance with the following sentences in this Section 2.5(d)) so that, after giving effect to such payment, the Sellers and Majority Buyer are in the same position they would have been in had payments at the Closing been based on the actual Purchase Price Adjustment (without any interest on such true-up payment). To the extent that the determination of the actual Purchase Price Adjustment (as calculated in accordance with Section 2.5(a)) results in a positive number, Majority Buyer shall pay each Seller such Seller’s Applicable Ownership Percentage multiplied by such excess by wire transfer in immediately available funds to an account designated by each such Seller, net of, in the case of each Minority Holder who is a Mexican resident individual and does not elect to file a Tax report (dictamen fiscal), a 20% Mexican withholding tax applicable under Mexican Income Tax Law. To the extent that the determination of the actual Purchase Price Adjustment (as calculated in accordance with Section 2.5(a)) results in a negative number, an amount equal to the absolute value of such deficiency multiplied by the Acquired Percentage (the “Shortfall Amount”) shall be paid to Majority Buyer (X) first, if elected by Majority Buyer, from the Escrow Account in accordance with the Escrow Agreement or (Y) if the amount remaining in the Escrow Account is insufficient to pay the Shortfall Amount or if Majority Buyer does not elect per (X), the balance of the Shortfall Amount not covered by release of the Escrow Account shall be paid by the Sellers pro rata in accordance with their Selling Percentage, by wire transfer in immediately available funds to an account designated by Majority Buyer; provided, however, that any portion of the Shortfall Amount to be paid by Holdings in accordance with this Section 2.5(d) shall first be offset against, at Majority Buyer’s discretion, payments of the Deferred Purchase Price Amount, if applicable, or from any payments owed under or the principal amount of the Parent Loan Financing Notes.

2.6
Rollover Participants. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if one or more Minority Holders set forth on Schedule 2.6 of the Company Disclosure Schedule duly execute and deliver on or prior to the Closing a counterpart of (i) the Seller Release, and (ii) the Shareholders Agreement (each such Minority Holder, a “Rollover Participant”), then each such Rollover Participant shall retain the Series B Shares set forth opposite such Rollover Participant’s name on Schedule 2.6 of the Company Disclosure Schedule (the “Rollover Shares”). For the avoidance of doubt, no Rollover Shares retained by the Rollover Participants shall be considered Acquired Interests, Majority Buyer shall not acquire any Rollover Shares, and no portion of the Purchase Price, the Purchase Price Adjustment or any other payment to be made to the Sellers hereunder shall be paid to the Rollover Participant’s with respect to their Rollover Shares.

6.11
Exclusivity. During the Interim Period, none of Parent, the Sellers or the Company shall (and the Sellers and the Company shall cause their respective Affiliates and Representatives to not), directly or indirectly, (a) solicit, initiate or induce the making, submission or announcement of, or knowingly encourage, facilitate or assist, an Acquisition Proposal, (b) furnish to any Person (other than the Majority Buyer or any designees of the Majority Buyer) any non-public information relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or afford to any Person (other than the Majority Buyer or any of its Representatives) access to the business, properties, assets, books, records or other non-public information, or to any personnel, of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, in any such case with the intent to induce the making, submission or announcement of, or the intent to encourage, facilitate or assist, an Acquisition Proposal or any inquiries that would reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal, (c) participate or engage in discussions or negotiations with any Person with respect to an Acquisition Proposal, or (d) enter into any contract relating to an Acquisition Proposal. To the extent permitted by applicable Law or confidentiality obligations, Parent, the Sellers and the Company shall (and the Sellers and the Company shall cause their respective Affiliates and Representatives to) promptly notify the Majority Buyer if such Party or any director, executive officer or Representative of any such Party becomes aware of any receipt by any such Party of (i) any Acquisition Proposal, (ii) any request for information that would reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal, or (iii) any inquiry with respect to, or which would reasonably be expected to lead to, any Acquisition Proposal, the terms and conditions of such Acquisition Proposal, request or inquiry, and the identity of the Person or group making any such Acquisition Proposal, request or inquiry. Parent, the Sellers and the Company shall (and Parent, the Sellers and the Company shall cause their respective Affiliates and Representatives to), immediately cease and cause to be terminated any existing discussions or negotiations with any Person (other than the Majority Buyer and its Affiliates) conducted heretofore with respect to any of the foregoing.

6.12
Confidentiality.

(c)
Each Buyer agrees that the Confidentiality Agreement continues to apply and each Buyer is bound by its terms. Upon Closing, the Confidentiality Agreement shall terminate without further action by any Person. If the Closing does not occur, the Confidentiality Agreement shall remain in effect in accordance with and subject to its terms.

(d)
From and after the Closing for a period of six years, Parent and the Sellers shall, and shall cause their Affiliates and Representatives to, (i) maintain the confidentiality of all Confidential Information, (ii) not use any Confidential Information for any purpose and (iii) not disclose any Confidential Information, in each case except (X) to the extent that disclosure is required by Law or (Y) to enforce its rights under this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or any other contract with the Company or to defend any claim in a proceeding relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.  In the event that disclosure is required by Law, Parent and the Sellers, as applicable, will, to the extent legally permissible, provide the Majority Buyer and the Company with prompt written notice thereof and use its reasonable efforts to assist the Company in its efforts to obtain an appropriate protective order at the expense of the Company.  If, failing the entry of a protective order, the Parent or any Seller is advised by legal counsel that such Party is compelled to disclose Confidential Information, such Party may disclose only that portion of Confidential Information as is legally required; provided, that Parent and each Seller agrees to exercise its reasonable efforts to obtain assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded the Confidential Information that is disclosed.  For the avoidance of doubt, Majority Buyer and the Company shall be entitled to seek injunctive and/or other equitable relief for the breach by Parent or a Seller of any covenant set forth in this Section 6.12(b).

6.13
Non-Competition; Non-Solicitation; No Hire.

(k)
Non-Competition. In consideration for the payments made by Buyers hereunder and the other substantial direct and indirect benefits received from the transactions contemplated hereby, for a period of three (3) years from the Closing Date (the “Non-Compete Period”), Parent and each of the Sellers set forth on Schedule 6.13(a) of the Company Disclosure Schedule (each, a “Restricted Seller”) shall not, shall cause their respective Affiliates not to, and shall not authorize or encourage any of their respective employees or agents to, engage (whether as a provider of products or services or as an owner, investor, operator, manager, employee, officer, director, consultant, advisor, representative or otherwise), directly or indirectly anywhere within Mexico and Colombia, other than pursuant to relationships with Majority Buyer, the Company or their respective Affiliates, in any business activity that is competitive with the business of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries as then conducted or any business activities related thereto, or any business that develops, provides or markets any products or services provided by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries through and as of the Closing Date (any such business, a “Competitive Business”); provided, that ownership of less than 2% of the outstanding stock of any publicly-traded corporation shall not be deemed to be engaging, solely by reason thereof, in a Competitive Business.

(l)
Non-Solicitation and No Hire. As a separate and independent covenant, and in consideration for the payments made by Buyers hereunder and the other substantial direct and indirect benefits received from the transactions contemplated hereby, Parent and each of the Restricted Sellers agree that, during the Non-Compete Period, without the prior written consent of the Majority Buyer, Parent and each Restricted Seller shall not, shall cause their respective Affiliates not to, and shall not authorize or encourage any of their respective employees or agents to, directly or indirectly:

(i)
(A) hire, employ or engage, or attempt to hire, employ or engage, for or on behalf of itself or any other Person (whether or not a Competitive Business) any of the officers, employees, consultants or independent contractors of any of Majority Buyer, the Company, its Subsidiaries or their respective Affiliates, or any former officers, employees, consultants or independent contractors employed by Majority Buyer, the Company, its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Affiliates during the 12-month period immediately preceding the date of solicitation or hire by Parent, Restricted Sellers or their respective Affiliates, or (B) solicit, persuade or attempt to persuade, or induce or attempt to induce any such officers, employees, consultants or independent contractors to leave the employ of Majority Buyer, the Company, its Subsidiaries or their respective Affiliates, or violate the terms of their contracts or any employment arrangements with Majority Buyer, the Company, its Subsidiaries or their respective Affiliates, including by offering employment to any such Person during such period; or

(ii)
solicit, persuade or attempt to persuade, or induce or attempt to induce, any customer, borrower, supplier, vendor, service provider, lessor, licensor or other business relation of Majority Buyer, the Company, its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Affiliates into any business relationship that would interfere with the business of any such Person, or otherwise divert or take away from any business with any such Person.

(m)
Enforcement. If the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction declares that any term or provision of this Section 6.13 is invalid or unenforceable, the Parties agree that the court making the determination of invalidity or unenforceability shall have the power to reduce the scope, duration, or area of the term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any invalid or unenforceable term or provision, with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and that this Agreement shall be enforceable as so modified after the expiration of the time within which the judgment may be appealed.

(n)
Acknowledgment. Parent and each of the Restricted Sellers acknowledge and agree that such Person has independently consulted with its counsel, and after such consultation agrees that: (i) Parent and such Restricted Seller are willing and able to engage in businesses that are not restricted under this Section 6.13 and that enforcement of the restrictive covenants set forth in this Section 6.13 will not be unduly burdensome to Parent or such Restricted Seller; (ii) the covenants set forth in this Section 6.13 (including with respect to subject matter, time period and geographical area) are reasonable and proper and are necessary to protect the Buyers’ interest in, and the value of, the Company and its Subsidiaries (including the goodwill inherent therein, trade secrets and confidential information of the Company and its Subsidiaries); (iii) Parent and the Restricted Sellers are primarily responsible for the creation of such value; (iv) the Buyers would not have consummated the transactions contemplated hereby without the restrictions contained in this Section 6.13 and (v) the non-competition obligation contained in this Section 6.13 does not constitute a temporary or permanent relinquishment or waiver of the exercise of any industry, commerce and/or profession pursuant to Art. 5 of the Mexican Constitution, since the term “Competitive Business” applies only to certain specifically defined services and products, and thus Restricted Sellers will remain free and entitled to engage in other activities within the respective industry, commerce and/or profession. Parent further acknowledges and agrees that, notwithstanding the fact that Parent is not a Restricted Seller, Parent has and will receive substantial benefit as a result of Buyers entering into this Agreement and the Transaction Documents, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, as a result of Parent being the indirect owner of Holdings.

(o)
Relief. The covenants and undertakings contained in this Section 6.13 relate to matters which are of a special, unique and extraordinary character, and Parent and each Restricted Seller acknowledge and agree that a violation of any of the terms of this Section 6.13 will cause irreparable harm to the Buyers, the amount of which will be impossible to estimate or determine and which cannot be adequately compensated. Accordingly, Parent and each Restricted Seller each acknowledge and agree that the remedy at Law for any breach of this Section 6.13 will be inadequate. Therefore, Parent and each Restricted Seller each acknowledge and agree that the Buyers will be entitled to an injunction, restraining order or other equitable relief from any court of competent jurisdiction in the event of any breach of this Section 6.13 without the necessity of proving actual damages or posting any bond whatsoever. The rights and remedies provided by this Section 6.13 are cumulative and in addition to any other rights and remedies which the Buyers may have hereunder. The existence of any claim or cause of action by Parent or any Restricted Seller against any of the Buyers, whether predicated on this Agreement or otherwise, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement by the Buyers of the restrictive covenants contained in Section 6.13.

6.14
Use of Proceeds. Parent and the Sellers shall, and Parent shall cause their respective Subsidiaries and Affiliates to, use the Purchase Price to make any and all payments that any of the foregoing Persons are required by contract to pay as a result of the closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and/or receipt of the Purchase Price, including pursuant to any contract for Debt to which any such Person is a party.

6.15
Cooperation with Financing.

(m)
Prior to the Closing, the Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, use commercially reasonable efforts to cause its and their respective officers, employees and advisors, including legal and accounting advisors, to cooperate with the Buyers as reasonably necessary in connection with the arrangement of any debt financing to be provided to the Buyers to enable the Buyers to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents (the “Debt Financing”) as may be customary and reasonably requested by the Buyers, including using commercially reasonable efforts to (i) furnish the Buyers and any financing sources that are to provide such Debt Financing (such financing sources, together with their respective Affiliates involved in the Debt Financing and their respective successors and assigns, the “Debt Financing Sources”) as promptly as reasonably practicable following the Buyers’ request, with information (other than financial information covered by clause (ii) below) regarding the Company and its Subsidiaries customary for the arrangement of loans contemplated by the Debt Financing, in each case, to the extent reasonably available to the Company or its Subsidiaries and reasonably requested in writing by the Buyers to assist in preparation of customary information documents or rating agency or lender presentations relating to such arrangement of loans, and including all information and data necessary to satisfy the conditions set forth in any commitment letter or fee letter entered into in connection with the Debt Financing or any definitive agreement entered into in respect thereof (collectively, the “Debt Documents”) (other than financial information covered by clause (ii) below), (ii) furnish to the Buyers and the Debt Financing Sources, as promptly as reasonably practicable, all financial statements, pro forma financial statements and other financial data and financial information of the Company and its Subsidiaries that is required under any Debt Document to consummate the Debt Financing on or prior to the time the Debt Financing is to be consummated (including audited, interim and other financial statements and all customary information to be included in a bank information memorandum or customary offering memorandum or otherwise required in connection with the Debt Financing), (iii) participate at reasonable times in a reasonable number of meetings, presentations, and rating agency and due diligence sessions, (iv) assist the Buyers and the Debt Financing Sources in the preparation of (A) customary bank information memoranda, offering memoranda, private placement memoranda and similar documents for any portion of the Debt Financing and (B) customary materials for rating agency presentations, (v) cooperate with the marketing efforts of the Buyers and the Debt Financing Sources with respect to any portion of the Debt Financing, (vi) furnish to the Buyers and the Debt Financing Sources such documentation and other information regarding the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries required with respect to the Debt Financing under any applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, (vii) take all corporate actions reasonably requested by the Buyers to permit the consummation of the Debt Financing and to permit the proceeds thereof to be made available to the Buyers at Closing, (viii) execute and deliver any customary credit agreements and pledge and security documents and otherwise reasonably facilitate the granting of a security interest (and perfection thereof) in collateral, guarantees, mortgages, other definitive financing documents or other certificates, customary closing certificates (including a solvency certificate) and documents as may be reasonably requested by the Buyers (provided that no obligation of the Company or any Subsidiary under any such agreement or other financing document shall be effective until the Closing), (ix) obtain customary authorization letters with respect to the bank information memoranda and consents of accountants to the use of their reports in any materials relating to the Debt Financing, (x) cooperate reasonably with the due diligence processes of the Debt Financing Sources, to the extent customary and reasonable and to the extent not unreasonably interfering with the ongoing operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries and (xi) take such other actions as are reasonably requested by the Buyers or the Debt Financing Sources to facilitate the satisfaction of all conditions precedent to obtaining the Debt Financing set forth in any Debt Document to the extent within the control of the Company or its Subsidiaries (including delivery to the Buyers of the stock certificates of the Company and its Subsidiaries at Closing).

(n)
Notwithstanding clause (a) of this Section 6.15, (i) none of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to incur any liability in connection with the Debt Financing prior to the Closing, (ii) the pre-Closing board of directors (or equivalent governing body) of the Company and the directors, managers and general partners of its Subsidiaries shall not be required to adopt resolutions approving the agreements, documents and instruments pursuant to which the Debt Financing is obtained that are effective prior to the Closing, and (iii) none of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to execute any definitive financing documents, including any credit or other agreements, pledge or security documents, or other certificates, legal opinions or documents in connection with the Debt Financing that are not contingent upon the Closing or that would be effective prior to the Closing. The Buyers shall promptly reimburse the Company and its Subsidiaries for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs incurred by the Company or its Subsidiaries in connection with such cooperation; provided, however, that the Company (and not the Buyers) shall be responsible for (1) de minimis expenses, (2) fees payable to existing legal, financial or other advisors of the Company or its Subsidiaries with respect to services provided prior to the Closing Date, (3) any ordinary course amounts payable to existing employees of or consultants to the Company, its Subsidiaries, the Service Providers or their respective Affiliates with respect to services provided prior to the Closing Date and (4) any amounts that would have been incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby regardless of the Debt Financing. The Company hereby consents to the use of all of its and its Subsidiaries’ corporate logos in connection with the initial syndication or marketing of the Debt Financing; provided, that such logos are used solely in a manner that is not intended to or reasonably likely to harm or disparage the Company or its Subsidiaries or the reputation or goodwill of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

6.16
Financing.

(a)
The Buyers shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and do, or cause to be done all things necessary, proper or advisable to arrange and obtain the Debt Financing, including using commercially reasonable efforts to satisfy, or cause to be satisfied, on a timely basis all conditions to the Buyers obtaining the Debt Financing set forth in any Debt Document.

(b)
The Buyers acknowledge and agree that obtaining the Debt Financing is not a condition to the Closing. If the Debt Financing has not been obtained on or prior to the date on which the conditions set forth in Article VIII have been satisfied or waived, and Majority Buyer does not otherwise elect to pay the amounts payable by it under Section 2.2 in immediately available funds, then Majority Buyer shall withhold a portion of the Purchase Price equal to $25,000,000, and in consideration for such deferral of payment, Majority Buyer hereby agrees to pay the Deferred Purchase Price Amount in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in Exhibit D; provided that if the Deferred Purchase Price Amount is used, Majority Buyer will indemnify Holdings and its Affiliates for any incremental Taxes (including any deduction or withholding with respect to any payment under the Deferred Purchase Price Amount) incurred by Holdings and its Affiliates as a result of Majority Buyer’s use of Deferred Purchase Price Amount.

6.17
Updates to Disclosure Schedules and Loan Schedule.

(d)
If Parent, any Seller, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries become aware prior to Closing of any event, fact or condition or nonoccurrence of any event, fact or condition that may constitute a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of Parent, any Seller or the Company (as applicable) or may constitute a breach of any representation or warranty of Parent, any Seller or the Company (as applicable) if such representation or warranty were made on the date of the occurrence or discovery of such event, fact or condition or on the Closing Date, then Parent, the Sellers or the Company may provide Majority Buyer with a written description of such fact or condition (each a “Disclosure Schedule Update”); provided that in no event shall any Disclosure Schedule Update be delivered to Majority Buyer later than five (5) business days prior to the Closing Date. No Disclosure Schedule Update that relates to facts and circumstances existing on or prior to the date hereof shall operate as a cure of the failure to disclose such information, or a cure of the breach of any representation or warranty made herein; and determination of any liability for breach of representations or warranties, to the extent such representations or warranties are made by Parent, the Sellers or the Company as of the date of this Agreement or on the Closing Date, shall be made without reference to any such Disclosure Schedule Update and with reference only to the Disclosure Schedule as it stands on the date of this Agreement. If Parent, the Sellers or the Company deliver any Disclosure Schedule Update that relates to facts and circumstances that first occur after the date hereof, then Majority Buyer will have the right to terminate this Agreement without liability to any of the Parties within five (5) Business Days of receipt of any such Disclosure Schedule Update; provided, however, that if the Majority Buyer does not terminate the Agreement prior to the expiration of such five (5) Business Day-period, then any such Disclosure Schedule Update shall operate as a cure of the failure to disclose the information contained in any such Disclosure Schedule Update, or a cure of the breach of any representation or warranty made herein, and determination of any liability for breach of representations or warranties, to the extent such representations or warranties are made by Parent, the Sellers or the Company as of the date of this Agreement or on the Closing Date, shall be made taking into account such Disclosure Schedule Update.

6.20
Assignment of Intellectual Property. To the extent an employee of the Company or any of its Affiliates owns any Intellectual Property that is used in the Business but is not owned by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, on or prior to Closing, the Company shall, or shall cause its Affiliate to, cause such employee to assign or otherwise transfer such Intellectual Property to the Company or any of its Subsidiary.

Knowledge.

(j)
Waiver of Certain Damages.

(k)
Materiality. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, for purposes of the parties indemnification obligations under this Article X, all of the representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement, any document delivered hereto or any certificate or schedule delivered hereto or thereto (other than with respect to the Regulatory Representations) that are qualified as to “material,” “materiality,” “material respects,” “Material Adverse Effect,” “Seller Material Adverse Effect,” or words of similar import or effect shall be deemed to have been made without any such qualification for purposes of determining: (i) whether a breach, default or failure to be true and correct of any such representation, warranty or covenant has occurred and (ii) the amount of any Losses with respect to any breach, default, or failure to be true and correct of such representation, warranty or covenant.

(l)
Sole and Exclusive Remedy.

(m)
No Joint Liability. In no event shall any Seller be responsible for (i) more than its Applicable Ownership Percentage of any indemnification obligations under this Article X for which each Seller is responsible or (ii) the breach of any representations, warranties or covenant made by another Seller or Parent in this Agreement; provided, that Holdings shall be responsible for all representations, warranties and covenants made by Parent in this Agreement in accordance with the terms and limitations set forth herein.

(n)
No Recovery. The Buyer Indemnitees will not be entitled to recover under this Section 10.1 to the extent that the Losses underlying the subject matter of the claim were reflected in the calculation of any Purchase Price adjustment as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.5

10.4
Indemnification Procedures.

(c)
Each Indemnitee agrees that promptly after it becomes aware of facts giving rise to a claim by it for indemnification pursuant to this Article X, such Indemnitee must assert its claim for indemnification under this Article X (each, a “Claim”) by providing a written notice (a “Claim Notice”) to the Indemnifying Party allegedly required to provide indemnification protection under this Article X specifying, in reasonable detail, the nature and basis for such Claim (e.g., the underlying representation, warranty, covenant or agreement alleged to have been breached). Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Indemnitee’s failure to send or delay in sending a third-party Claim Notice will not relieve the Indemnifying Party from liability hereunder with respect to such Claim except to the extent the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure or delay and except as is otherwise provided herein, including in Sections 10.3(e) and 10.3(g).

(d)
In the event of the assertion of any third-party Claim for which, by the terms hereof, an Indemnifying Party is obligated to indemnify an Indemnitee, the Indemnifying Party will have the right, at such Indemnifying Party’s expense, to assume the defense of same including the appointment and selection of counsel on behalf of the Indemnitee so long as such counsel is reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee. If the Indemnifying Party elects to assume the defense of any such third-party Claim, it shall within 30 days notify the Indemnitee in writing of its intent to do so and acknowledge that the third-party Claim is within the scope of its obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party in accordance with and subject to the terms of this Article X. The Indemnifying Party will have the right to settle or compromise or take any corrective or remediation action with respect to any such Claim by all appropriate Proceedings, which Proceedings will be diligently prosecuted by the Indemnifying Party to a final conclusion or settled at the discretion of the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnitee will be entitled, at its own cost, to participate with the Indemnifying Party in the defense of any such Claim. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any such third-party Claim but fails to diligently prosecute such Claim, or if the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of any such Claim, the Indemnitee may assume control of such defense and the Indemnifying Party will bear the reasonable costs and expenses of such defense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses).; provided, that, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate, but not control, such proceeding and to employ separate counsel to present them; provided, further, that if (i) the claim for indemnification relates to or arises in connection with any criminal proceeding, action, indictment, allegation or investigation, (ii) the claim seeks any form of remedy other than monetary damages, (iii) the Indemnified Party reasonably concludes, based on the advice of counsel, that the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Parties have conflicting interests with respect to such third-party Claim or that the Indemnified Party has one or more defenses not available to the Indemnifying Parties, or (iv) Losses arising out of the applicable third party Claim would reasonably be expected to exceed the amount then held in the Escrow Account on the date the Indemnified Party gives notice of such third party Claim to the other Party pursuant to Section 10.4(a), such fees and expenses of separate counsel shall be paid by the Indemnifying Party.

(e)
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party will not be permitted to settle, compromise, take any corrective or remedial action or enter into an agreed judgment or consent decree, in each case, that (i) subjects the Indemnitee to any criminal liability, (ii) requires an admission of guilt or wrongdoing on the part of the Indemnitee, (iii) imposes any continuing obligation on or requires any payment from the Indemnitee without the Indemnitee’s prior written consent or (iv) does not provide for a full release of Indemnitee.

10.5

(j)
EACH OF PARENT, THE COMPANY AND EACH SELLER HEREBY EXPRESSLY AGREES THAT THE REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE BUYERS CONTAINED IN ARTICLE V CONSTITUTE THE SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE BUYERS TO SUCH PARTIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT.

WITHOUT LIMITING THE GENERALITY OF THE FOREGOING, BUYER EXPRESSLY AGREES THAT IT HAS NOT RELIED ON ANY REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OTHER THAN THE REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE BUYERS CONTAINED IN ARTICLE V IN EXPECTATION OF, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT.

(k)
Except for the indemnification obligations set forth in (and as limited by) this Article X, and claims with respect to fraud, intentional misrepresentation or willful misconduct, no Seller Affiliate shall have any liability or obligation to any Buyer of any nature whatsoever in connection with or under this Agreement, any of the Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated herein or therein.

10.6
Guarantee of Parent. Parent hereby unconditionally, irrevocably and absolutely guarantees to the Buyer Indemnitees, as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety, the payment obligations required to be performed by Holdings as Seller hereunder (“Guaranteed Obligations”). This guarantee is an absolute, unconditional and continuing guarantee of the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations. Should Holdings default in the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations with respect to any Buyer Indemnitee, or otherwise be unable for any reason to pay the Guaranteed Obligations with respect to such Buyer Indemnitee as and when due, Parent’s obligations hereunder shall become due and payable to such Buyer Indemnitee. All amounts payable by Parent will be paid in immediately available funds. Parent hereby agrees that the obligations of Parent hereunder shall not be released or discharged, in whole or in part, or otherwise affected by (a) the failure of Holdings to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against any such Buyer Indemnitee; (b) any change in the time, place or manner of payment of the Guaranteed Obligations; (c) the addition, substitution or release of any other Person interested in the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any other Transaction Document; (d) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of Holdings; (e) any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting Holdings; or (f) the adequacy of any other means any Buyer Indemnitee may have of obtaining payment of the Guaranteed Obligations. To the fullest extent permitted by Law, Parent hereby expressly waives any and all rights or defenses arising by reason of any Law that would otherwise require any election of remedies by a Buyer Indemnitee. Parent waives promptness, diligence, notice of the acceptance of this guarantee and of the Guaranteed Obligations, presentment, demand for payment, notice of non-performance, default, dishonor and protest, notice of any Guaranteed Obligations incurred and all other notices of any kind, all defenses that may be available by virtue of any valuation, stay, moratorium law or other similar Law now or hereafter in effect, and all suretyship defenses generally. Parent acknowledges that he will receive substantial direct and indirect benefits from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and that the waivers set forth in this guarantee are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.

10.7
Right to Set Off. Upon prior written notice delivered to Holdings specifying in reasonable detail the basis therefor, the Buyers may set off (on behalf of any Buyer Indemnitee) any amounts owed by either Buyer or their respective Affiliates (including the Company and its Subsidiaries) to Parent, Holdings or any of their respective controlled Affiliates (including amounts owed pursuant to the Parent Loan Financing Notes and/or the Deferred Purchase Price Amount, if any) (a) to reimburse such Buyer (or any other Buyer Indemnitee) for Losses that are uncontested by the Sellers (collectively, “Uncontested Losses”), (b) to reimburse such Buyer (or any other Buyer Indemnitee) for Losses that have been resolved in favor of such Buyer (or any other Buyer Indemnitee) pursuant to a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction or a settlement agreement between Majority Buyer and Holdings (collectively, “Resolved Losses”), and/or (c) to reimburse Buyer for any portion of the Shortfall Amount pursuant to Section 2.5(d). With respect to Buyers’ (or any other Buyer Indemnitees’) Losses for which notice of claim has been provided in accordance with this Article X but that, at the time of determination, are neither Uncontested Losses nor Resolved Losses (collectively, “Unresolved Losses”), Majority Buyer shall be entitled to, upon prior written notice delivered to Holdings specifying in reasonable detail the basis therefor, fund any payments owed under the Parent Loan Financing Notes and/or the Deferred Purchase Price Amount, if any, up to the amount of such Unresolved Losses, into the Escrow Account, such amount or a portion thereof to be released to Majority Buyer if and when any portion of such Unresolved Losses become Uncontested Losses or Resolved Losses. The exercise by a Buyer of such set off or escrow funding right in good faith shall not constitute a breach or event of default under this Agreement or under any other note or instrument pursuant to which such obligation is owed by a Buyer or its Affiliates to Parent, Holdings or any of their respective controlled Affiliates. Neither the exercise of, nor the failure to exercise, such set off or escrow funding right will constitute an election of remedies or limit a Buyer Indemnitee in any manner in the enforcement of any other remedies that may be available to it. In the event that the Escrow Account has been closed, the parties shall work together in good faith to establish an escrow account on substantially similar terms as the Escrow Account.

Other than as provided in Section 11.3, any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or the breach thereof (“Dispute”), shall be settled solely and exclusively by arbitration conducted in English and administered under the Rules of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce (the “Arbitration Rules”), by three arbitrators appointed in accordance with the Arbitration Rules, and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrators may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof, provided, however, that determinations to be made by the Accounting Firm pursuant to Section 2.5(c) shall be made pursuant to Section 2.5(c) by the Accounting Firm, provided further that if the Accounting Firm is unable or unwilling to make such determinations or in the event of a dispute concerning the jurisdiction of the Accounting Firm to make such determination, this Section 11.2 shall apply to such matters that the Accounting Firm is unable or unwilling to determine or such dispute concerning the jurisdiction of the Accounting Firm. Except as otherwise provided in the Arbitration Rules, any decision or award of the arbitrator shall be final, binding and conclusive on the Parties and their respective Affiliates. The place of arbitration shall be New York, New York. The parties to the Dispute agree to equally split the costs of any arbitration, including the administrative fee, the compensation of the arbitrators, and the expenses of any witnesses or proof produced at the direct request of the arbitrator; provided, however, that the arbitrators shall have the authority to award to the prevailing party, if any, as determined by the arbitrators, some or all of its costs and fees. “Costs and fees” mean all reasonable pre-award expenses of the arbitration, including the arbitrators’ fees, administrative fees, travel expenses, out-of-pocket expenses such as copying and telephone, court costs, witness fees, and attorneys’ fees.

(p)
The Parties agree that any action to compel arbitration pursuant to this Agreement may be brought in the appropriate federal or state court in New York, New York.

The information contained in this Agreement, the Exhibits and the Schedules is disclosed solely for purposes of this Agreement, and no information contained in this Agreement, the Exhibits or the Schedules shall be deemed to be an admission by any Party to any third Person of any matter whatsoever (including any violation of a legal requirement or breach of contract).

The Privileged Communications are the property of Holdings, and from and after the Closing, none of the Buyers, the Company or any of their respective Affiliates, nor any Person purporting to act on behalf of any Buyer, the Company or any of their respective Affiliates will seek to obtain such Privileged Communications, whether by seeking a waiver of the attorney-client privilege or through other means. As to any such Privileged Communications, each Buyer further agrees that none of the Buyers, the Company or any of their respective Affiliates, successors or assigns, may use or rely on any of the Privileged Communications in any action against or involving such Persons after the Closing; provided, however, the foregoing shall not restrict the ability of the Buyers, the Company or any of their respective Affiliates to challenge the fact that any communication is a Privileged Communication (other than as a result of the Buyers becoming the owner of the equity interests of the Company). The Privileged Communications may be used by Holdings and its respective Affiliates in connection with any dispute that relates in any way to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a dispute arises between any Buyer, the Company and a third Person (other than a Party to this Agreement or any of such Party’s respective Affiliates) after the Closing, the Company may assert the attorney–client privilege to prevent disclosure of the Privileged Communications to such third Person; provided, however, that the Company may not, unless required by applicable Law, waive such privilege without the prior written consent of Holdings.
