For purposes of any federal or state tax reporting associated with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, Buyer and Seller agree that the Purchase Price shall be allocated among the Acquired Assets in accordance with the purchase price allocation schedule annexed hereto and made a part hereof (the “Purchase Price Allocation Schedule”). Said allocation is intended by Buyer and Seller to comply with Section 1060 of the Code and any Treasury Regulations issued thereunder, and Buyer and Seller shall file Form 8594 with their respective federal income tax returns in a manner consistent with said allocation.

8. INDEMNIFICATION.

(a) Indemnification by Seller. Up to a maximum amount equal to the Purchase Price, Seller shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Buyer and its officers and directors from, against, and with respect to any and all losses, damages, claims, obligations, liabilities, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs and expenses incurred in investigating, preparing, defending against or prosecuting any litigation, claim, proceeding or demand) of any kind or character (each a “Loss” and collectively, the “Losses”) arising out of or in connection with any of the following:

(i) Any material breach of any of the representations or warranties of Seller contained in this Agreement;

(ii) Any material failure by Seller to perform or observe any covenant, agreement or condition to be performed or observed by it pursuant to this Agreement;

(iii) Any and all Retained Liabilities or other liabilities and obligations of Seller, except for the Assumed Liabilities; or

(iv) Seller’s ownership and operation of the Acquired Assets and the Business Line on or prior to the Closing Date, including without limitation any and all claims for products, service or professional liability against Seller arising out of sales of the Software or services related thereto or grants of licenses by Seller on or prior to the Closing Date.

(b) Indemnification by Buyer. Buyer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Seller and its officers and directors from, against and with respect to any Losses arising out of or in connection with any of the following:

(i) Any material breach of any of the representations and warranties of Buyer contained in this Agreement;

(ii) Any material failure by Buyer to perform or observe, any covenant, agreement or condition to be performed or observed by it pursuant to this Agreement;

(iii) All obligations and liabilities arising after the Closing Date attributable to the Assumed Liabilities; or

(iv) Buyer’s ownership and operation of the Acquired Assets after the Closing Date, including without limitation any and all claims for products, service or professional liability against Buyer arising out of sales of the Software or services related thereto or grants of licenses by Buyer after the Closing Date.

(c) Notice of Claim. Any party seeking to be indemnified hereunder (the “Indemnified Party”) shall, within thirty (30) days following discovery of the matters giving rise to a Loss, notify the party from whom indemnity is sought (the “Indemnity Obligor”) in writing of any claim for recovery, specifying in reasonable detail the nature of the Loss and the amount of the liability estimated to arise therefrom; provided, however, that no single claim shall be made hereunder for an amount less than Twenty-Five Thousand and No/100ths Dollars ($25,000.00). If the Indemnified Party does not so notify the Indemnity Obligor within said thirty (30) days, such claim shall be barred, and the Indemnity Obligor shall have no obligation with respect thereto. The Indemnified Party shall provide to the Indemnity Obligor as promptly as practicable thereafter all information and documentation requested by the Indemnity Obligor to verify the claim asserted.

(d) Defense. If the facts pertaining to a Loss arise out of the claim of any third party, or if there is any claim against a third party available by virtue of the circumstances of the Loss, the Indemnity Obligor may, by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) days following its receipt of the notice of such claim, elect to assume the defense or the prosecution thereof, including the employment of counsel or accountants at its cost and expense; provided, however, that during the interim the Indemnified Party shall use its best efforts to take all action (not including settlement) reasonably necessary to protect against further damage or loss with respect to the Loss. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ counsel separate from counsel employed by the Indemnity Obligor in any such action and to participate therein, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the Indemnified Party’s own expense. Whether or not the Indemnity Obligor chooses so to defend or prosecute such claim, all the parties hereto shall cooperate in the defense or prosecution thereof. In the event of payment by the Indemnity Obligor to the Indemnified Party in connection with any Loss arising out of a third party claim, the Indemnity Obligor shall be subrogated to and shall stand in the place of the Indemnified Party with respect to such Indemnified Matter. The Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnity Obligor in prosecuting any subrogated claim.

(e) Time for Claims. All of the representations and warranties of the Parties contained in this Agreement shall survive the Closing. Except as otherwise provided herein, action on any claim asserted with respect to the items enumerated in Sections 8(a) or 8(b) must be commenced within four (4) years after the Closing Date.

(f) Reduction by Insurance Proceeds. The amount payable by an Indemnity Obligor to an Indemnified Party with respect to a Loss shall be reduced by the amount of any insurance proceeds received by the Indemnified Party with respect to the Loss, and each of the parties hereby agrees to use its best efforts to collect any and all insurance proceeds to which it may be entitled in respect of any Loss.

9. MISCELLANEOUS.

(a) Press Releases and Public Announcements. Any Party may make any public disclosure it believes in good faith is required by applicable law, in which case the disclosing Party will use its best efforts to advise the other Party prior to making the disclosure.

(b) No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall not confer any rights or remedies upon any Person other than the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

(c) Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the documents referred to herein) constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties and supersedes any prior understandings, agreements, or representations by or between the Parties, written or oral, to the extent they related in any way to the subject matter hereof.

Any Party may send any notice, request, demand, claim, or other communication hereunder to the intended recipient at the address set forth above using any other means (including personal delivery, expedited courier, messenger service, telecopy, telex, ordinary mail, or electronic mail), but no such notice, request, demand, claim, or other communication shall be deemed to have been duly given unless and until it actually is received by the intended recipient. Any Party may change the address to which notices, requests, demands, claims, and other communications hereunder are to be delivered by giving the other Party notice in the manner herein set forth.

(h) Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the domestic laws of the State of South Carolina without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of South Carolina or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of South Carolina.

(i) Amendments and Waivers. No amendment of any provision of this Agreement shall be valid unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Buyer and Seller. No waiver by any Party of any default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder, whether intentional or not, shall be deemed to extend to any prior or subsequent default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder or affect in any way any rights arising by virtue of any prior or subsequent such occurrence.

(j) 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.

(k) Expenses. Each Party will bear its own costs and expenses (including legal fees and expenses) incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

(l) Construction. The Parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the Parties and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any Party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement. Any reference to any federal, state, local, or foreign statute or law shall be deemed also to refer to all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, unless the context requires otherwise. The word “including” shall mean including without limitation. Nothing in the Disclosure Schedule shall be deemed adequate to disclose an exception to a representation or warranty made herein unless the Disclosure Schedule identifies the exception with reasonable particularity and describes the relevant facts in reasonable detail. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the mere listing (or inclusion of a copy) of a document or other item 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). 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.

(m) Incorporation of Exhibits and Schedules. The Exhibits and Schedules identified in this Agreement are incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof.

(n) Submission to Jurisdiction. Each of the Parties submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of any state or federal court sitting in Xxxxxxxx County, South Carolina, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 9(o) hereof, and agrees that all claims in respect of the action or proceeding may be heard and determined in any such court. Each Party also agrees not to bring any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any other 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. Any Party may make service on the other Party by sending or delivering a copy of the process to the Party to be served at the address and in the manner provided for the giving of notices in Section 9(g) above. Nothing in this Section 9(n), however, shall affect the right of any Party to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law or in equity. Each Party agrees that a final judgment in any action or proceeding so brought shall be conclusive and may be enforced by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law or in equity.

(o) Arbitration. The Parties agree that all disputes arising out of or in connection with this Agreement shall be settled by arbitration in accordance with the provisions of the Uniform Arbitration Act of S.C. Code Sections 15-48-10 through 00-00-000, and judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) shall be binding and may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.
