Payment of the Working Capital Adjustment shall be by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account specified by the payee and shall include simple interest on such amount at a rate per annum equal to eight percent (8%), commencing on the Closing Date and continuing until the date of full payment.

Sellers and Purchaser shall file the Section 338 Forms in accordance with the Allocation Schedule. The parties agree not to take any position inconsistent with the Allocation Schedule for Tax reporting purposes.

(b) Tax Returns. (i) The current accountants for the Company will prepare (at the Company’s expense), and the Company will file or cause to be filed when due, all federal, state and local income and franchise Tax Returns and other Tax Returns with respect to Company for taxable periods ending prior to the Closing Date, but which are not yet due as of the Closing Date. Sellers shall pay the U.S. federal and any applicable state income tax attributable to the Company’s taxable income for such return periods for which such Sellers would be liable individually assuming a valid election by the Company to be taxed as an S corporation for federal income tax purposes and for purposes of all state income taxes in those states which allow such elections, and shall also pay any entity-level Tax liability of the Company reflected on such Tax Returns if not reserved for on the Closing Date Balance Sheet.

(ii) The current accountants for the Company will prepare, and the Company will file or cause to be filed when due, all federal, state and local income and franchise Tax Returns and other Tax Returns with respect to the Company and the Subsidiaries with respect to taxable periods ending on the Closing Date (the “Short Tax Period”). With respect to the Short Tax Period, (i) the Company and the Subsidiaries shall close their books as of the end of the Short Tax Period and compute taxable income or taxable loss for the Short Tax Period on the basis of the permanent books and records (including work papers) of the Company and the Subsidiaries for such Short Tax Period, taking into account the effect of the Section 338(h)(10) Elections (and after applying the Next Day Rule under Treas. Reg. Section 1.338-1(d), to the extent applicable); (ii) the current accountants for the Company will prepare the necessary Tax Returns, in accordance with the Subchapter S requirements of the Code and in a manner consistent with the Tax Returns previously filed by the Company (but taking into account the effects of the Section 338(h)(10) Elections), and provide such information to Sellers and Purchaser for review and approval; (iii) such Tax Returns shall be filed by the Company by the due date of such Tax Returns (taking into account any extensions); and (iv) Sellers shall pay the federal and any applicable state income tax attributable to the Company’s taxable income for the Short Tax Period for which such Sellers would be liable individually assuming a valid election by the Company to be taxed as an S corporation for federal income tax purposes and for purposes of all state income taxes in those states which allow such elections, and shall also pay any entity-level Tax liability of Company reflected on such Tax Returns if not reserved for on the Closing Date Balance Sheet.

(c) Additional Purchase Price for Certain Taxes. (i) Except as otherwise provided in and subject to the terms of this Section 6.2(c), Purchaser shall pay to Sellers additional consideration under this Section 6.2(c) (the “Make-Whole Amount”) equal to the excess of (A) the aggregate Taxes imposed on Sellers solely as a result of (x) the deemed transfer of the assets by the Company and the Subsidiaries contemplated by section 338(h)(10) of the Code and the deemed liquidation of the Company as contemplated by section 338(h)(10) of the Code (assuming for this purpose the distribution by the Company of the Purchase Price) and (y) the allocation of a portion of the Purchase Price to the non-competition agreement as described in Section 6.3, over (B) the aggregate amount of Taxes that would have been imposed on Sellers if Sellers had sold the stock of the Company to Purchaser in a fully taxable transaction outside the scope of section 338 of the Code under the same terms as are provided in this Agreement and without any allocation of a portion of the Purchase Price to the non-competition agreement as described in Section 6.3 (such excess Taxes, “Indemnified Taxes”). In computing Indemnified Taxes with respect to any Seller (other than for purposes of calculating the Tax benefit resulting from the accrual or payment of an Indemnified Tax as provided below), it shall be assumed that the only tax items of such Seller are those that arise (or would have arisen) as a result of the transactions (or deemed transactions) described in clauses (A) and (B) above, that Xxxxxxx is an individual resident of Colorado, and that each other Seller is an individual resident of the state shown on Schedule 3.1. The Make-Whole Amount will be increased so that Sellers, after receipt of the Make-Whole Amount, will have received on a net after-tax basis an amount equal to the Indemnified Taxes.

(ii) Schedule 6.2(c) contains the parties’ estimate of the Make-Whole Amount. Pursuant to the procedures outlined in Section 6.2(c)(i), Purchaser shall cause any Make-Whole Amount resulting from the application of such procedures to be paid, subject to the procedures described herein, at least 5 days prior to the filing of the appropriate Tax Return. Sellers and Purchaser agree to prepare their respective Tax Returns in a manner consistent with Schedule 6.2(c) and the determination of the Make-Whole Amount pursuant to Section 6.2(c)(i) (and, if there is an adjustment to such amount by an Independent Accounting Firm pursuant to this Section 6.2(c)(ii), consistent with that adjustment), and to not take any position inconsistent with Schedule 6.2(c) and any such determination (or, if applicable, adjustment). Subject to the next sentence, no additional Make-Whole Amount shall be payable unless there has been an audit or other inquiry described in Section 6.2(c)(iii), and a final determination of additional Indemnified Taxes owing in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 6.2(c)(iii). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at least 30 days prior to the time the Company is required to file its Tax Returns for the period that includes the Closing Date, either Sellers or Purchaser determine that a position inconsistent with the initial determination of the Make-Whole Amount pursuant to Section 6.2(c)(i) is required by law, and such position would result in an increase or decrease in the Make-Whole Amount previously determined (or adjusted): (A) the party making such determination shall notify the other party no later than such time (failure to notify within such time shall result in a waiver of any right to an adjustment pursuant to this sentence unless such failure to notify within such time did not result in any prejudice to a party) and the parties shall attempt in good faith to resolve the matter and agree to any revised Make-Whole Amount within ten days of such notice; (B) if the parties are unable to so agree within such time, they shall submit the matter to an Independent Accounting Firm, (1) that shall be instructed to determine the proper treatment of the item in question consistent with Schedule 6.2(c) and no later than five days prior to the due date for filing such Tax Return, (2) whose determination shall be final and binding on the parties, and (3) whose fees shall be borne equally by Sellers, on the one hand, and Purchaser, on the other, and (C) such Tax Return shall be prepared in a manner consistent with the determination by such Independent Accounting Firm. Any adjustment to the Make-Whole Amount shall be paid by Sellers (to the extent of a reduction in the Make-Whole Amount) or Purchaser (to the extent an increase in the Make-Whole Amount), as the case may be, no later than ten Business Days following the final determination thereof.

(iii) Sellers shall notify Purchaser in writing of any audit or other inquiry of any of Sellers by any Taxing Authority that could result in a claim for additional Indemnified Taxes. Such notification shall be given as soon as reasonably practicable. Purchaser shall have sole control over all audits or other proceedings as the same pertain to items relevant to Indemnified Taxes, provided Sellers shall be entitled at any time to participate in such audits or other proceedings at their expense. Sellers shall cooperate as reasonably requested by Purchaser in order to enable Purchaser to control such proceedings. Sellers shall not submit information to any Taxing Authority (orally or otherwise) that could reasonably be expected to affect Purchaser’s liability for additional Indemnified Taxes without the prior written consent of Purchaser which shall be not unreasonably withheld or delayed. In its sole discretion, Purchaser may pursue or forego any and all administrative appeals, proceedings, hearings and conferences with the Taxing Authority in respect of Indemnified Taxes and may, at their sole option, either direct Sellers to pay the Indemnified Tax claimed and xxx for a refund or contest the claim in any permissible manner, and Sellers agree to cooperate with Purchaser as reasonably requested in prosecuting such contest to a determination before any administrative tribunal, in a court of initial jurisdiction and in one or more appellate courts, as Purchaser shall determine; provided, however, that (A) if Purchaser directs Sellers to pay Indemnified Taxes and xxx for a refund, Purchaser shall advance an amount equal to such Indemnified Taxes to Sellers, on an interest-free basis but not in excess of the maximum amount of Purchaser’s exposure for Indemnified Taxes hereunder, with Purchaser being entitled to any permitted refund of such amounts, (B) the right of Purchaser to control proceedings pursuant to this section (but not the obligation of Purchaser to indemnify Sellers as provided in this Agreement) shall terminate with respect to any such proceeding if Sellers reasonably determine that Purchaser is conducting such proceedings in manner that is unreasonable and that could reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Effect on Sellers (provided, that in such case Sellers shall not consent to any settlement of any issue without the prior written consent of Purchaser, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), and (C) Purchaser shall not take or advocate (unless otherwise required by Law) any position that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on or legally bind Sellers without obtaining the consent of Sellers, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(iv) For purposes of this Section 6.2(c), a “final determination” with respect to any Indemnified Tax shall be deemed to occur upon the earliest of (A) the expiration of any period following which no right of appeal or any decision of a court exists, (B) the date upon which a closing agreement or similar agreement with respect to a claim for Indemnified Taxes is executed by Sellers and the Taxing Authority following written approval from Purchaser, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and (C) the receipt by Sellers of notice from Purchaser that they no longer seek to pursue a contest with respect to Indemnified Taxes.

(v) Amounts payable by Purchaser under this Section 6.2(c) shall be allocated among the assets of the Company and the Subsidiaries in accordance with Treas. Reg. Section 1.338-6.

(vi) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 6.2(c) to the contrary, no Make-Whole Amount shall be payable:

(A) to the extent of any additional federal income Tax payable if the Company failed to qualify as a “small business corporation” as defined in section 1361 of the Code or failed to have in effect a valid election to be treated as an “S corporation” for federal income Tax purposes under the Code;

(B) to the extent of any additional state or local income Tax of any Seller (with respect to its income pertaining to that Seller or its shares), if the Company failed to qualify as a “small business corporation” as defined in provisions of such state or local income Tax Law comparable to section 1361 of the Code or failed to have in effect a valid election to be treated as an “S corporation” for such state or local income Tax purposes;

(C) to the extent of any additional federal, state or local income Tax imposed on any of the Subsidiaries if such Subsidiary (or its predecessor) failed to be treated as a “qualified subchapter S subsidiary” for purposes of such Tax;

(D) to the extent of any Tax imposed by reason of section 1374 of the Code (or comparable provisions of state or local law);

(E) without duplication of any reductions described in clauses (A) through (D), to the extent the Make-Whole Amount exceeds the Make-Whole Amount that would have been payable had none of the circumstances described in clauses (A) through (D) above (e.g., the Company not having in effect a valid election to be treated as an “S corporation” or a Subsidiary failing to be treated as a “qualified subchapter S subsidiary”) occurred. For purposes of applying this clause (E), in computing the Make-Whole Amount that would have been so payable, it shall be assumed that each Seller received the after-tax proceeds from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the distribution of assets from Sellers that such Shareholder would have received had none of such circumstances occurred; and

(F) to the extent the Indemnified Tax is attributable to fraud of a Seller.

For the sake of clarity, there shall be no increase in the Make-Whole Amount by reason of a Seller receiving less after-tax proceeds from the Company as a result of a Tax that was the subject of a reduction described in this Section 6.2(c). The reductions in clauses (A) through (F) are not mutually exclusive.

6.3 Non-Competition. xiv) Except as Purchaser may expressly agree in writing, Xxxxxxx agrees that, from and after the date of this Agreement until five years after the Closing Date, Xxxxxxx shall not, and shall not permit any of his post-Closing Affiliates, directly or indirectly:

(i) engage in, control, advise, manage, serve as a director, officer, or employee of, act as a consultant to, receive any economic benefit from or exert any influence upon, any business which conducts activities in the Territory similar to those conducted by the Company or any of the Subsidiaries;

(ii) solicit, divert or attempt to solicit or divert any party who is, was, or was solicited to become, a customer or supplier of the Company or any of the Subsidiaries at any time prior to the Closing Date;

(iii) employ, solicit for employment or encourage to leave their employment, any person who was during the two-year period prior to such employment, solicitation or encouragement or is an officer or employee of the Company or any of the Subsidiaries;

(iv) avail himself of or invest in any business opportunity which is related to the activities conducted by the Company or any of the Subsidiaries, except as a passive investor in the stock of a publicly traded company;

(v) disturb, or attempt to disturb, any business relationship between any third party and the Company or any of the Subsidiaries; or

(vi) make any statement to any third party, including the press or media, likely to result in adverse publicity for the Company or any of the Subsidiaries.

For purposes of this Section 6.3(a), the term “directly or indirectly” shall include acts or omissions as proprietor, partner, joint venturer, employer, salesman, agent, employee, officer, director, lender or consultant of, or owner of any interest in, any Person.

(b) In the event of actual or threatened breach of the provisions of this Section 6.3, Purchaser, in addition to any other remedies available to it for such breach or threatened breach, including the recovery of damages, shall be entitled to an injunction restraining Xxxxxxx from such conduct.

(c) If at any time any of the provisions of this Section 6.3 shall be determined to be invalid or unenforceable by reason of being vague or unreasonable as to duration, area, scope of activity or otherwise, then this Section 6.3 shall be considered divisible (with the other provisions to remain in full force and effect) and the invalid or unenforceable provisions shall become and be deemed to be immediately amended to include only such time, area, scope of activity and other restrictions, as shall be determined to be reasonable and enforceable by the court or other body having jurisdiction over the matter, and Xxxxxxx expressly agrees that this Section 6.3, as so amended, shall be valid and binding as though any invalid or unenforceable provision had not been included herein.

(d) Nothing in this Section 6.3 is intended to impose any non-compete obligations on any employee of the Company or any Subsidiary other than Xxxxxxx.

6.4 Required Consents. After the Closing, Sellers and Xxxxxxx shall cooperate with Purchaser and use commercially reasonable efforts to assist Purchaser in obtaining any Required Consents not obtained prior to Closing.

6.5 Employee Terminations. Subject to any individual arrangements with individual employees of the Company as disclosed in the Disclosure Memorandum, if any individual employed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries as of the Closing Date is terminated by Purchaser during the first twelve (12) months after the Closing Date, for any reason except for good cause, such individual shall be entitled to receive the same severance benefits as such individual would have received as a result of such termination under the Company’s severance policy as in effect as of the date of this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, such severance policy provides for two (2) weeks of base pay for every full year of employment by the Company, subject to a maximum six (6) months of base pay, and continued medical and dental coverage during the same period.

6.6 Transition Period for Xxxxxxx; Excluded Assets. Purchaser shall give Xxxxxxx up to thirty (30) days after the Closing Date (the “Transition Period”) to remove his personal effects from the premises of the Company and its Subsidiaries and to arrange for support services previously provided to Xxxxxxx by the Company. Notwithstanding the previous sentence, the Transition Period for the New York apartment (as referred to on Schedule 4.22(b)) shall extend to July 31, 2007, and the Transition Period for the NetJet lease arrangement (as referred to on Schedule 4.22(b)) shall extend to September 27, 2007. During the Transition Period, the Company and its Subsidiaries shall provide to Xxxxxxx substantially the same support services as have been provided to Xxxxxxx during the one-year prior to the date of this Agreement. Xxxxxxx shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause title to the assets listed on Schedule 4.22(b) to be transferred from the Company and its Subsidiaries to Xxxxxxx (or to a Person designated by Xxxxxxx) effective on or prior to the expiration of the Transition Period. If title to any such asset is not transferred to Xxxxxxx (or to a Person designated by Xxxxxxx) prior to the expiration of the Transition Period, then Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide Xxxxxxx with the same use of such asset after the Transition Period in accordance with the terms of any Contract related to the use or enjoyment of such asset, provided that Xxxxxxx shall reimburse Purchaser for all out-of-pocket costs or expenses incurred by Purchaser or any of its Affiliates in connection therewith.

ARTICLE VIII

INDEMNIFICATION

8.1 Indemnification by Xxxxxxx. From and after the Closing Date and subject to the provisions of this Article VIII (including the limitations set forth in Section 8.4), Xxxxxxx agrees to indemnify, hold harmless and defend each Purchaser Indemnified Party from and against any and all claims and/or liabilities, damages, penalties, Judgments, assessments, fines, losses, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees, interest expense (including pre-judgment interest) and expenses and costs of investigation) (collectively, “Damages”) arising out of or relating to:

(a) any inaccuracy or breach of any representation or warranty of Xxxxxxx contained in this Agreement;

(b) any fine, penalty or fee with respect to any Permit of the Company or any Subsidiary that is specified in a written fine or penalty notice received by the Company or any Subsidiary between January 1, 2007 and the Closing Date; or

8.2 Indemnification by Purchaser. From and after the Closing Date and subject to the provisions of this Article VIII, Purchaser agrees to, and agrees to cause the Company to, indemnify, hold harmless and defend each Seller Indemnified Party from and against any and all claims and/or Damages arising out of or relating:

(a) any inaccuracy or breach of any representation or warranty of Purchaser contained in this Agreement; or

(b) any breach of any covenant or agreement of Purchaser contained in this Agreement.

8.3 Indemnification Process. The party or parties making a claim for indemnification under this Article VIII shall be, for the purposes of this Agreement, referred to as the “Indemnified Party” and the party or parties against whom such claims are asserted under this Article VIII shall be, for the purposes of this Agreement, referred to as the “Indemnifying Party.” All claims by any Indemnified Party under this Article VIII shall be asserted and resolved as follows:

(a) In the event that (i) any claim, demand or Proceeding is asserted or instituted by any Person other than the parties to this Agreement or their Affiliates which could give rise to Damages for which an Indemnifying Party could be liable to an Indemnified Party under this Agreement (such claim, demand or Proceeding, a “Third Party Claim”) or (ii) any Indemnified Party under this Agreement shall have a claim to be indemnified by any Indemnifying Party under this Agreement which does not involve a Third Party Claim (such claim, a “Direct Claim”), the Indemnified Party shall with reasonable promptness send to the Indemnifying Party a written notice specifying the nature of such claim, demand or Proceeding and the amount or estimated amount of such claim, demand or Proceeding (which amount or estimated amount shall not be conclusive of the final amount, if any, of such claim, demand or Proceeding) (a “Claim Notice”); provided, however, that a delay in notifying the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Agreement except to the extent that (and only to the extent that) such failure shall have caused the Damages for which the Indemnifying Party is obligated to be greater than such Damages would have been had the Indemnified Party given the Indemnifying Party proper notice.

(b) In the event of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall control the defense of, and shall be entitled to appoint counsel of the Indemnifying Party’s choice at the expense of the Indemnifying Party to represent the Indemnified Party and any others the Indemnifying Party may reasonably designate in connection with, such claim, demand or Proceeding (in which case the Indemnifying Party shall not thereafter be responsible for the fees and expenses of any separate counsel retained by any Indemnified Party except as set forth below); provided, however, that such counsel is reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party. Notwithstanding an Indemnifying Party’s election to appoint counsel to represent an Indemnified Party in connection with a Third Party Claim, an Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel, and the Indemnifying Party shall bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel if (i) the use of counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party to represent the Indemnified Party would present such counsel with a conflict of interest, (ii) the Indemnified Party shall reasonably conclude, based upon advice of counsel, that (A) there is a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party in the conduct of the defense of such Third Party Claim or (B) there are specific defenses available to the Indemnified Party which are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party and which could be materially adverse to the Indemnifying Party or (iii) the Indemnifying Party shall not have employed counsel to represent the Indemnified Party within a reasonable time after notice of the institution of such Third Party Claim; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall continue to control the defense of such Third Party Claim. If requested by the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party agrees to cooperate with the Indemnifying Party and its counsel in contesting any claim, demand or Proceeding which the Indemnifying Party defends or, if appropriate and related to the claim, demand or Proceeding in question, in making any counterclaim against the Person asserting the Third Party Claim or any cross-complaint against any Person. No Third Party Claim may be settled or compromised (1) by the Indemnified Party without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party or (2) to the extent the Indemnified Party would not be entitled to indemnification with respect to such Third Party Claim under this Article VIII, by the Indemnifying Party without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party. In the event any party settles or compromises or consents to the entry of any Judgment with respect to any Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the other parties, such party shall be deemed to have waived all rights against the other parties for indemnification under this Article VIII. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 8.3(b) to the contrary, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel at the Indemnified Party’s expense and to control the defense of any Third Party Claim that relates to pollution or the protection of the environment, including any cleanup, removal, treatment or remediation of hazardous substances, or that could reasonably be expected, if adversely decided against the Indemnified Party, to materially adversely affect any of the Indemnified Party’s other business operations.

(c) In the event of a Direct Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall notify the Indemnified Party within 30 Business Days of receipt of a Claim Notice whether or not the Indemnifying Party disputes such claim. If the Indemnifying Party gives timely notice disputing any claim (a “Counter Notice”), the Indemnifying Party shall promptly pay to Indemnified Party all non-disputed amounts and the parties shall attempt in good faith to agree on resolution of the disputed amount. Any amount mutually agreed upon or awarded to the Indemnified Party under a final and non-appealable Judgment shall be paid by the Indemnifying Party within five Business Days following execution of such agreement or the entering of such Judgment, as applicable, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 8.4. If no Counter Notice is received by the Indemnified Party within the 30 Business Days, then the dollar amount of the Claim as set forth in the original notice shall be deemed established for purposes of this Agreement and, at the end of such 30-Business Day period, the Indemnifying Party shall make a payment to the Indemnified Party in the dollar amount claimed in the Indemnified Party’s notice, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 8.4.

(d) From and after the delivery of a Claim Notice under this Agreement, at the reasonable request of the Indemnifying Party, each Indemnified Party shall grant the Indemnifying Party and its representatives all reasonable access to the books, records and properties of such Indemnified Party to the extent reasonably related to the matters to which the Claim Notice relates. All such access shall be granted during normal business hours and shall be granted under conditions that will not unreasonably interfere with the business and operations of such Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall not, and shall require that its representatives do not, use (except in connection with such Claim Notice) or disclose to any third Person other than the Indemnifying Party’s representatives (except as may be required by applicable Law or in connection with a Claim, in which case the Indemnifying Party will use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain an appropriate protective order) any information obtained pursuant to this Section 8.3(d) which is designated as confidential by an Indemnified Party.

8.4 Limitations on Indemnity Payments. xv) No claim for indemnification under Section 8.1(a) may be made by the Purchaser Indemnified Parties, and no payment in respect of a claim for indemnification shall be required from Xxxxxxx, unless and only to the extent that the aggregate amount of Damages against which the Purchaser Indemnified Parties are entitled to be indemnified exceeds $500,000 (the “Basket”); provided, however, that the Basket shall not apply to, and the Purchaser Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to indemnification without regard to the Basket with respect to, (i) claims for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation and (ii) claims for breach of any representation or warranty made in Section 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.6, 4.2, 4.3, 4.9(a) (other than for Liens arising out of claims of vendors or tradesmen in the ordinary course of business), 4.14, 4.22 or 4.23 (collectively, the “Designated Representations”)

(b) The maximum aggregate amount of Damages against which the Purchaser Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to be indemnified under Section 8.1(a) with respect to all claims thereunder shall be equal to $5,000,000; provided, however, that the foregoing indemnification cap shall not apply to, and the Purchaser Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to indemnification without regard to the foregoing indemnification cap with respect to, (i) claims for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation and (ii) claims for breach of any Designated Representation.

(c) The right to indemnification pursuant to this Article VIII shall be the exclusive remedy for any and all claims arising under this Agreement following the Closing, other than claims for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation. Any payment required to be made to a Purchaser Indemnified Party under Section 8.1 shall be made (i) first, by means of a dollar-for-dollar reduction to the Deferred Payment Amount to be paid by Purchaser to Sellers on the two-year anniversary of the date of the Agreement and (ii) second, in the case of any payment with respect to which the cap set forth in Section 8.4(b) does not apply or the Deferred Payment Amount has been either reduced to zero pursuant to clause (i) above or already paid to Sellers, by Xxxxxxx.

8.5 Survival. The representations and warranties of Xxxxxxx and Purchaser contained in this Agreement shall survive the Closing for a period of two years after the Closing Date; provided, however, that the representation and warranties contained in Sections 3.1 and 4.2(a) shall survive for six years after the Closing Date. The covenants of Sellers, Xxxxxxx and Purchaser contained in this Agreement shall survive the Closing for the period specified therein, or if no survival period is specified therein for a period of two years after the Closing Date. Any and all claims and causes of action for indemnification under this Article VIII arising out of the inaccuracy or breach of any representation or warranty of Xxxxxxx or Purchaser, or the breach of any covenant by Sellers, Xxxxxxx or Purchaser, must be made prior to the termination of the applicable survival period; it being understood that in the event notice of any claim for indemnification under Section 8.1 or 8.2 shall have been given within the applicable survival period, the representations, warranties and covenants that are the subject of such indemnification claim shall survive until such time as such claim is finally resolved.

8.6 Characterization of Indemnification Payments. Purchaser and Sellers agree to treat any payment made under this Article VIII as an adjustment to the Purchase Price. If, contrary to the intent of Purchaser and Sellers as expressed in the preceding sentence, any payment made pursuant to this Article VIII is treated as taxable income of an Indemnified Party, then the Indemnifying Party shall indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnified Party from any liability for Taxes attributable to the receipt of such payment.

ARTICLE IX

GENERAL PROVISIONS

9.1 Expenses. Each party to this Agreement shall pay all fees and expenses incurred by it in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The parties to this Agreement agree that all applicable excise, sales, transfer, documentary, filing, recordation and other similar Taxes, levies, fees and charges, if any (including all real estate transfer Taxes and conveyance and recording fees, if any), that may be imposed upon, or payable or collectible or incurred in connection with, this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be borne by the party on which such Taxes, levies, fees or charges are imposed by operation of Law. Each party to this Agreement agrees to file all necessary documentation (including all Tax Returns) with respect to such Taxes in a timely manner.

From time to time after the Closing and without further consideration, each of the parties, upon the request of the other party and at such other party’s expense, shall execute and deliver such documents and instruments as such other party may reasonably request in order to consummate more effectively the terms of this Agreement (including the purchase and sale of the Shares as contemplated by this Agreement and the vesting in Purchaser of title to the Shares transferred under this Agreement).

9.3 Amendment. This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed by Purchaser, Sellers and Xxxxxxx. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser may assign its rights to purchase the Shares and its obligations under this Agreement without Sellers’ or Xxxxxxx’x consent to one or more direct or indirect majority-owned subsidiaries of Purchaser; provided, however, that no such assignment shall relieve Purchaser of its obligations under this Agreement.

Either Purchaser (on the one hand) or Sellers and Xxxxxxx (on the other hand) may (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other, (b) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties of the other contained in this Agreement or in any document delivered by the other pursuant to this Agreement or (c) waive compliance with any of the agreements, or satisfaction of any of the conditions, contained in this Agreement by the other. Any agreement on the part of a party to this Agreement to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed by such party.

9.9 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute a single instrument.

9.10 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality or enforceability of the other provisions of this Agreement shall not be affected and there shall be deemed substituted for the provision or provisions at issue a valid, legal and enforceable provision as similar as possible to the provision at issue.

9.11 Confidentiality Agreement; Entire Agreement. Effective upon the execution of this Agreement, the Confidentiality Agreement shall automatically terminate without any further action by the parties hereto. This Agreement (including the documents and instruments referred to in this Agreement) sets forth the entire understanding and agreement among the parties as to the matters covered in this Agreement and supersedes and replaces any prior understanding, agreement or statement of intent, in each case, written or oral, of any and every nature with respect to such understanding, agreement or statement including the Confidentiality Agreement.

9.12 Consent to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. Each of the parties hereto (a) consents to submit itself to the personal jurisdiction of any federal court sitting in the State of New York or any New York state court, in either case, located in New York, New York, if any dispute arises out of this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby, (b) agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat the jurisdiction of such courts by motion or other request for leave from any such court, (c) waives any claim that such proceedings have been brought in an inconvenient forum, and (d) agrees that it will not bring any action relating to this Agreement in any court other than a federal court sitting in the State of New York or a New York state court, in either case, located in New York, New York. THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE ANY RIGHTS THEY MAY HAVE TO TRIAL BY JURY IN REGARD TO ANY CLAIMS MADE IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT.
