Section 3.5 Payment. Not later than two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing, the Parties shall have agreed upon a flow of funds memorandum (the “Funds Flow Memorandum”), which sets forth all payments required to be made by the Parent at the Closing on behalf of the Company or to the Disbursement Agent at the Closing, including for each such payment an identification of the payor, the payee, the amount and the wire transfer information. The Closing Merger Consideration shall be deposited with the Disbursement Agent for distribution to the Shareholders in accordance with the terms set forth in this Section 3.5 and the Disbursement Agent Agreement.

(a) Disbursement Agent.

(i) The Disbursement Agent (or its successor in interest) shall act as disbursement agent pursuant to an agreement to be entered into by and among the Disbursement Agent, the Parent and the Representative on or prior to the Effective Time in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit G (the “Disbursement Agent Agreement”). The Disbursement Agent shall effect the payment of the Merger Consideration among the Shareholders with respect to Certificates in accordance with Section 3.1.

(ii) As promptly as possible after the Effective Time, the Representative shall (A) collect each Certificate and each Letter of Transmittal submitted by Shareholders pursuant to Section 3.1; (B) verify and certify to the Disbursement Agent, in writing, that each such Certificate and Letter of Transmittal was duly and properly executed by the holder thereof; and (C) submit each such Certificate and Letter of Transmittal, together with the previously referenced certification, to the Disbursement Agent.

(iii) In accordance with and subject to the Disbursement Agent Agreement, the Disbursement Agent shall pay, as promptly as practicable, to the holder of any Certificate surrendered to the Disbursement Agent pursuant to Section 3.5(a)(ii), in consideration therefor, an aggregate amount equal to the applicable portion of the Closing Merger Consideration, and such Certificate shall forthwith be cancelled.

(iv) The Disbursement Agent shall pay, as promptly as possible after any amounts are deposited therewith (other than the amounts referenced in subpart (iii) above), to the Holders such amounts on a fully diluted basis in accordance with the Disbursement Agent Agreement.

(v) Until so surrendered, each such Certificate (other than Certificates representing Company Shares held by the Company or held in the treasury of the Company) shall represent solely the right to receive the applicable portion of the Closing Merger Consideration. No interest shall be paid or accrued on the Merger Consideration except as specifically provided in the Escrow Agreement. If all or any portion of the Merger Consideration is to be delivered to any Person other than the Person in whose name the Certificate formerly representing Company Shares surrendered thereof is registered, it shall be a condition to such right to receive such payment that the Certificate so surrendered shall be properly endorsed or otherwise be in proper form for transfer and that the Person requesting such payment shall pay to the Disbursement Agent the transfer or other similar taxes required by reason of payment of all or any portion of the Merger Consideration to a Person other than the registered holder of the Certificate so surrendered, or shall establish to the satisfaction of the Disbursement Agent that such tax has been paid or is not applicable.

(vi) In the event that any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact and delivering a bond by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed, in such substance and form as the Surviving Corporation may reasonably direct, to the Parent and the Disbursement Agent with respect to such Certificate, the Disbursement Agent will issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the aggregate Per Share Merger Consideration with respect to such Certificate.

(b) Stock Transfer Books. After the Effective Time, there shall be no transfers on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Corporation of any Company Shares which were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates formerly representing Company Shares are presented to the Surviving Corporation or the Disbursement Agent, they shall be surrendered and cancelled in return for payment as provided in this Article 3.

(c) Dissenting Shares. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Company Shares that are outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and which are held by Shareholders who shall have exercised dissenters’ rights or rights of appraisal for such shares in accordance with the Act and who, as of the Effective Time, have not effectively withdrawn or lost such dissenters’ rights (collectively, the “Dissenting Shares”), shall not be converted into or represent the right to receive any portion of the Merger Consideration, but the holders thereof shall only be entitled to such rights as are granted by the Act. All Dissenting Shares held by Shareholders who shall have failed to perfect or who effectively shall have withdrawn or lost their dissenters’ rights shall thereupon be deemed to have been converted into and to have become exchangeable for, as of the later of the Effective Time or the occurrence of such event, the right to receive the applicable portion of the Merger Consideration to be paid with respect thereto, without any interest thereon, upon surrender, in the manner provided in Section 3.5(a), of the Certificates that formerly evidenced such shares. The Company shall give Parent prompt notice of any written demands for appraisal or payment of the fair value of any Company Shares, withdrawals of such demands, and any other instruments served pursuant to the Act and received by the Company, which demands, and any actions, proceedings, investigations or claims arising therefrom, shall be subject to Article 10 hereof, including, without limitation, Section 10.4. The Company shall keep the Parent reasonably informed of material developments and events relating to any and all such demands and related claims. The Parent shall have the right at the Company’s expense to participate in the defense and settlement of such demands and claims, assisted by counsel of its own choosing.

(d) Certificates. In the event this Agreement is terminated prior to the Effective Time, the Parent shall, or shall cause the Disbursement Agent to, return promptly, but, in any event, within three (3) Business Days after such termination, any Certificates theretofore submitted or delivered to the Disbursement Agent, without charge to the Person who submitted such Certificate.

(e) Escheatment of Funds. None of the Parties nor any other Person shall be liable to any former Shareholder for any amount properly delivered to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar laws. All funds held by the Disbursement Agent for payment to the holders of unsurrendered Certificates and unclaimed six (6) months after the Effective Time shall be returned to the Parent, after which time any holder of unsurrendered Certificates shall look as a general creditor only to the Parent for payment of the funds to which the holder of unsurrendered Certificates may be due, subject to applicable Laws. Any such amounts remaining unclaimed by any Shareholder immediately prior to such time when such amounts would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Authority, shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Laws, become the property of the Parent, free and clear of all claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

Section 3.6 Adjustments.

(a) Adjustment. The Parties have agreed that the Adjusted Working Capital of the Company as of the close of business on the Closing Date would be between the Base Amount and the Threshold Amount, and that the Merger Consideration shall reflect on a dollar-for-dollar basis, up or down, to the extent the Adjusted Working Capital of the Company as of the close of business on the Closing Date is greater than the Threshold Amount or less than the Base Amount, as applicable, subject to the terms and conditions hereof. Such adjustment shall be determined without regard to any limitations set forth in Article 10.

(b) Estimated Adjustment. No less than three (3) days prior to the Closing, the Company and the Parent shall prepare a mutually agreeable estimated balance sheet of the Company as of Closing prepared in accordance with GAAP (the “Estimated Balance Sheet”). The Estimated Balance Sheet shall include a schedule providing an estimated calculation of the Company’s Adjusted Working Capital as of the Closing. The Company’s Adjusted Working Capital reflected on the Estimated Balance Sheet is hereinafter referred to as the “Estimated Working Capital.” An “Estimated Underage” will be deemed to exist if (and will equal the amount by which) the Estimated Working Capital is less than the Base Amount. An “Estimated Overage” will be deemed to exist if (and will equal the amount by which) the Estimated Working Capital is greater than the Threshold Amount; provided, however, the Estimated Overage shall not exceed $500,000.

(c) Closing Balance Sheet. Within one hundred twenty (120) days after the Closing Date, Parent shall prepare and deliver to the Representative a balance sheet of the Company (or the current portion thereof), together with a calculation of the True-Up Adjustment based thereon (including a calculation of the Adjusted Working Capital, Indebtedness and Transaction Related Expenses), all as of the close of business on the Closing Date (the “Closing Balance Sheet”). The Closing Balance Sheet shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Representative shall assist the Parent in the preparation of the Closing Balance Sheet if requested by the Parent. For purposes of clarity, the portion of the Merger Consideration paid to or to be paid to the Option Holders and any deductions, payroll taxes, or other tax attributes related thereto shall not be reflected on the Closing Balance Sheet.

(d) Protest Notice. Within thirty (30) days of the receipt of the Closing Balance Sheet, the Representative may deliver written notice (the “Protest Notice”) to Parent of any objections, specifying any contested line items or amounts and the basis therefor, which the Representative may have to the Closing Balance Sheet. The failure of the Representative to deliver such Protest Notice within the prescribed time period will constitute the Representative’s acceptance of the Closing Balance Sheet as delivered by Parent. Upon receipt of the Closing Balance Sheet and until the Protest Notice is delivered or required to be delivered, the Representative and his accountants will be given reasonable access to the Company’s relevant books, records and personnel during reasonable business hours for the purpose of verifying the Closing Balance Sheet; provided, however, Parent shall not be required to disclose to the Representative or any of his representatives any information (i) if doing so could violate any Contract or Law or which Parent believes in good faith could result in a loss of the ability to successfully assert a claim of privilege (including attorney-client and work product privileges), (ii) if the Parent or the Company, on the one hand, and the Representative or any of its Affiliates, on the other hand, are adverse parties in a litigation and such information is reasonably pertinent thereto or (iii) if the Parent reasonably determines that such information is competitively sensitive.

(e) Resolution of the Representative’s Protest. If Parent and the Representative are unable to resolve any disagreement with respect to the Closing Balance Sheet within ten (10) Business Days following Parent’s receipt of the Protest Notice, then the items in dispute will be referred to ▇▇▇▇▇ LLP (or, if ▇▇▇▇▇ LLP cannot serve in such capacity, then CliftonLarsonAllen LLP, or, if neither can serve in such capacity, another mutually agreed upon accounting firm) (the “Accountants”) for final determination within thirty (30) calendar days thereafter. The determination by the Accountants shall be based solely on presentations by Parent, on the one hand, and the Representative, on the other hand, both of which presentations shall be made in the presence of the other party (or, if in writing, copies shall be delivered simultaneously to the other party) and shall not involve independent review. The Accountants shall be permitted to ask questions of either party and ask for additional information from either party relating to the disputed items, but no ex parte communications with the Accountants shall be initiated by either party. Any determination by the Accountants shall not be outside the range defined by the respective amounts in the Closing Balance Sheet proposed by Parent and the Representative’s proposed adjustments thereto, and such determination shall be final, binding and non-appealable upon the parties for purposes of this Section 3.6. Each of Parent on the one hand, and the Holders, on the other hand, shall bear that percentage of the fees and expenses of the Accountants equal to the proportion of the dollar value of the disputed issues determined in favor of the other party.

(f) Final Balance Sheet. In the event any change is made to the Closing Balance Sheet in accordance with Section 3.6(e), such balance sheet as so changed shall be the final “Closing Balance Sheet” for the purposes of this Agreement. The Closing Balance Sheet shall be final either (i) as presented by the Parent, thirty (30) days after the Closing Balance Sheet is received by the Representative, in the event no Protest Notice is given on or prior to such date (or such earlier date as the Representative advised the Parent in writing that it has no dispute) or (ii) as modified pursuant to this Section 3.6, the date of the resolution of any dispute in accordance with Section 3.6(e).

(g) True-Up Adjustment.

(i) If the True-Up Adjustment as finally determined in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.6 is in the Parent’s favor, then no later than five (5) Business Days after such final determination, (x) the Representative and the Parent shall execute and deliver joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent instructing the Escrow Agent to make (A) a disbursement from the Working Capital Escrow Funds to the Parent in the amount equal to the True-Up Adjustment up to the amount of the Working Capital Escrow Funds, and (B) a disbursement from the Working Capital Escrow Funds to the Disbursement Agent (for further distribution to the Holders in accordance with this Article 3 and the Disbursement Agent Agreement) in an amount, if any, by which the Working Capital Escrow Funds exceeds the amount disbursed pursuant to clause (A) of this sentence, and (y) if the True-Up Adjustment exceeds the available Working Capital Escrow Funds, the Principal Equityholders, jointly and not severally, shall be obligated to pay to the Parent an amount equal to such excess.

(ii) If the True-Up Adjustment as finally determined in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.6 is in the Representative’s favor, then no later than five (5) Business Days after such final determination, (i) the Representative and the Parent shall execute and deliver joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent instructing the Escrow Agent to disburse the Working Capital Escrow Funds to the Disbursement Agent (for further distribution to the Holders in accordance with this Article 3 and the Disbursement Agent Agreement), and (ii) the Parent shall pay an amount equal to the True-Up Adjustment to the Disbursement Agent (for further distribution to the Holders in accordance with this Article 3 and the Disbursement Agent Agreement).

(iii) If the party that owes any amount under this Section 3.6(g) does not so pay, or cause to be paid, to the other party by the due date, any such amount due shall be deemed Losses under Article 10, which Losses together with interest at a rate of eight percent (8%) per annum shall be paid in full without regard to the limitations set forth in Article 10.

Section 3.7 Earnout Amount. The Earnout Amount, if any, shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.7, as follows:

(a) Earnout. The “Earnout Amount” shall be calculated as follows:

(i) The Earnout Amount shall be zero ($0), (x) if the Sunrise 2021 Revenue is less than or equal to Fifty-Eight Million Nine Hundred Thirty-Two Thousand One Hundred Seventy-Nine Dollars ($58,932,179) (the “Sunrise 2021 Revenue Threshold”) or (y) if the Sunrise 2021 Adjusted EBITDA is less than the Adjusted EBITDA Threshold; or

(ii) The Earnout Amount shall be Eleven Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($11,500,000), if (x) the Sunrise 2021 Revenue is greater than or equal to Seventy-Nine Million Nine Hundred Twenty-Seven Thousand Three Hundred Eighty-Eight Dollars ($79,927,388) (the “Revenue Target”) and (y) the Sunrise 2021 Adjusted EBITDA is greater than or equal to the Adjusted EBITDA Threshold; or

(iii) The Earnout Amount shall be Eleven Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($11,500,000) multiplied by a fraction (not greater than one (1)), (x) the numerator of which is the amount, if any, by which the Sunrise 2021 Revenue exceeds the Sunrise 2021 Revenue Threshold and (y) the denominator of which is the Revenue Target minus the Sunrise 2021 Revenue Threshold, in all cases in this clause (iii) if (A) the Sunrise 2021 Revenue is greater than the Sunrise 2021 Revenue Threshold and less than the Revenue Target and (B) the Sunrise 2021 Adjusted EBITDA is greater than the Adjusted EBITDA Threshold.

For this purpose:

“Adjusted EBITDA Threshold” means Six Million Four Hundred Ninety-Nine Thousand One Hundred Thirty-Two Dollars ($6,499,132).

“Sunrise 2021 Revenue” means the revenue of the Company for the 2021 calendar year commencing on January 1, 2021, and ending on December 31, 2021, as determined in accordance with GAAP and in accordance with the principles and illustrative sample calculation set forth on Schedule 3.7.

The Representative shall assist the Parent in the preparation of the Earnout Report if requested by the Parent.

(c) Earnout Protest Notice. Within thirty (30) days of the receipt of the Earnout Report, the Representative may deliver written notice (the “Earnout Protest Notice”) to Parent of any objections, specifying any contested line items or amounts and the basis therefor, which the Representative may have to the Earnout Report. The failure of the Representative to deliver such Earnout Protest Notice within the prescribed time period will constitute the Representative’s acceptance of the Earnout Report as delivered by Parent. Upon receipt of the Earnout Report and until the Earnout Protest Notice is delivered or required to be delivered, the Representative and his accountants will be given reasonable access to the Company’s relevant books, records and personnel during reasonable business hours for the purpose of verifying the Earnout Report; provided, however, Parent shall not be required to disclose to the Representative or any of his representatives any information (i) if doing so could violate any Contract or Law or which Parent believes in good faith could result in a loss of the ability to successfully assert a claim of privilege (including attorney-client and work product privileges), (ii) if the Parent or the Company, on the one hand, and the Representative or any of its Affiliates, on the other hand, are adverse parties in a litigation and such information is reasonably pertinent thereto or (iii) if the Parent reasonably determines that such information is competitively sensitive.

(d) Resolution of the Representative’s Protest. If Parent and the Representative are unable to resolve any disagreement with respect to the Earnout Report within ten (10) Business Days following Parent’s receipt of the Earnout Protest Notice, then the items in dispute will be referred to the Accountants for final determination within thirty (30) calendar days thereafter. The determination by the Accountants shall be based solely on presentations by Parent, on the one hand, and the Representative, on the other hand, both of which shall be made in the presence of the other party (or, if in writing, copies shall be delivered simultaneously to the other party) and shall not involve independent review. The Accountants shall be permitted to ask questions of either party and ask for additional information from either party relating to the disputed items, but no ex parte communications with the Accountants shall be initiated by either party. Any determination by the Accountants shall not be outside the range defined by the respective amounts in the Earnout Report proposed by Parent and the Representative’s proposed adjustments thereto, and such determination shall be final, binding and non-appealable upon the parties for purposes of this Section 3.7. Each of Parent on the one hand, and the Holders, on the other hand, shall bear that percentage of the fees and expenses of the Accountants equal to the proportion of the dollar value of the disputed issues determined in favor of the other party.

(e) Final Earnout Report. In the event any change is made to the Earnout Report in accordance with Section 3.7, such Earnout Report as so changed shall be the final “Earnout Report” for the purposes of this Agreement. The Earnout Report shall be final either (i) as presented by the Parent, thirty (30) days after the Earnout Report is received by the Representative, in the event no Earnout Protest Notice is given on or prior to such date (or such earlier date as the Representative advised the Parent in writing that it has no dispute) or (ii) as modified pursuant to this Section 3.7, the date of the resolution of any dispute in accordance with Section 3.7(d).

(h) Post-Closing Operations.

The right of the Holders to receive any portion of the Earnout Amount is solely a contractual right (and not a fiduciary relationship) between the Parent and any Holder or any other Person, and Parent shall have no express or implied obligation to seek to maximize the Earnout Amount. This Section shall confer upon the Holders only the rights of a general unsecured creditor of Parent under applicable state Law.

Such jurisdictions where the Company is qualified to transact business and in good standing are set forth on Schedule 4.1. The Company has the requisite corporate power and authority to conduct its business as it is now being conducted and as presently proposed to be conducted, except where the failure to have such power and authority has not had and would not reasonably be likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(vii) Indebtedness and Transaction Related Expenses not included in the Payoff Amount and any claim for payment of fees and/or expenses from the Company as a broker or finder representing the Company in connection with the origin, negotiation, execution or consummation of this Agreement based upon any alleged agreement between the claimant and the Company or a Shareholder or Option Holder of the Company or any holder of SARs or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing;

(viii) any and all Liabilities for Taxes (A) in connection with or arising out of the Company’s activities or business on or before the Closing Date (determined, with respect to taxable periods that begin before and end after the Closing Date, in accordance with the allocation provisions of Article 11), (B) owing by any Person (other than the Company) for which the Company may be liable where the Liability of the Company for such Taxes is attributable to an event or transaction occurring on or before the Closing Date, including, without limitation, (i) under Treasury Regulation Sections 1.1502-6 (or any predecessor or successor thereof or any analogous or similar provision of Law), (ii) as a transferee or successor or (iii) by Contract, or (C) resulting from a breach by the Company of Article 11; or

(b) The Indemnified Party may update and supplement any timely asserted indemnification claim from time to time.

Section 10.2 Additional Indemnification. Each Holder may also be subject to additional indemnification obligations in accordance with the Principal Equityholders Agreement, if applicable, and the applicable Letter of Transmittal. Each Option Holder may be subject to indemnification obligations in accordance with the applicable Option Cancellation Agreement.

Section 10.3 Indemnification by Parent. Parent, on behalf of itself and its respective successors and assigns, hereby agrees to indemnify the Company, the Holders, and their respective Affiliates, shareholders, directors, officers, partners employees, agents, representatives, successors and permitted assigns (the “Shareholder Indemnified Parties”) and save and hold each of them harmless from and against and pay on behalf of or reimburse the Shareholder Indemnified Parties as and when incurred for any and all Losses which any Shareholder Indemnified Party may suffer, sustain or become subject to, directly or indirectly, as a result of or relating to the following (whether or not involving a third party claim):

(a) any misrepresentation or breach of warranty on the part of Parent under Article 5 of this Agreement, or any misrepresentation or breach of, or omission from, any of the representations, warranties, statements, Schedules and Exhibits, certificates or other instruments or documents furnished to the Company by Parent pursuant to this Agreement;

(c) any claim for payment of fees and/or expenses as a broker or finder in connection with the origin, negotiation, execution or consummation of this Agreement based upon any alleged agreement between the claimant and Parent or any Affiliate thereof.

Section 10.4 Indemnification Procedure for Third Party Claims. In the event that any person or entity entitled to indemnification under this Agreement (an “Indemnified Party”) receives notice of the assertion of any claim or of the commencement of any action or proceeding by any Person who is not a party to this Agreement or an Affiliate of a party to this Agreement (including, but not limited to any Governmental Authority) (a “Third Party Claim”) against such Indemnified Party, against which a party to this Agreement is required to provide indemnification under this Agreement (an “Indemnifying Party”), the Indemnified Party shall promptly give written notice together with a statement regarding such claim to the Indemnifying Party in good faith, on a non-binding basis; provided that failure to provide such notice promptly shall not affect the rights of such Indemnified Party, except to the extent set forth in Section 10.4(f). Subject to Section 10.4(d) below, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right, upon written notice to the Indemnified Party (the “Defense Notice”) within thirty (30) days after receipt from the Indemnified Party of notice of such claim, which notice by the Indemnifying Party shall acknowledge its obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party against any Losses that may result from such Third Party Claim (without regard to the amount thereof or the limitations set forth herein) and specify the counsel it will appoint to defend such claim (“Defense Counsel”), to conduct at its expense the defense against such claim in its own name; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party shall have the right to approve the Defense Counsel, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(a) In the event that the Indemnifying Party shall fail to give the Defense Notice within said thirty (30) day period, it shall be deemed to have elected not to conduct the defense of the subject claim, and in such event the Indemnified Party shall have the right to conduct the defense in good faith and to compromise and settle the claim in good faith without prior consent of the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnifying Party will be liable for all reasonable costs, expenses, settlement amounts or other Losses paid or incurred in connection therewith.

(b) Subject to Section 10.4(d) below, in the event that the Indemnifying Party does deliver a Defense Notice and thereby elects to conduct the defense of the subject claim, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to have the exclusive control over said defense of the subject claim and the Indemnified Party will cooperate with and make available to the Indemnifying Party such assistance and materials as it may reasonably request, all at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, and the Indemnified Party shall have the right at its expense to participate in the defense assisted by counsel of its own choosing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event may an Indemnifying Party settle the subject claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld.

(c) Without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party which may be withheld for any reason or no reason, the Indemnifying Party will not enter into any settlement of any Third Party Claim or cease to defend against such claim, if pursuant to or as a result of such settlement or cessation, (i) injunctive relief or specific performance would be imposed against the Indemnified Party, or (ii) such settlement or cessation would lead to liability or create any financial or other obligation on the part of the Indemnified Party for which the Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification hereunder.

(d) Notwithstanding Section 10.4(b), the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to control, and the Indemnified Party shall be entitled, at the Indemnifying Party’s expenses, to have sole control over, the defense or settlement of any claim (i) that seeks a temporary restraining order, a preliminary or permanent injunction or specific performance against the Indemnified Party, (ii) that involves criminal allegations, investigations or proceedings against the Indemnified Party, (iii) that if unsuccessful, would set a precedent that would materially interfere with, or have a material adverse effect on, the business or financial condition of the Indemnified Party, (iv) that is related to any Tax matter, (v) that relates to the exercise by any Shareholder of appraisal or dissenters rights, (vi) that seeks to impose liability on the part of the Indemnified Party for which the Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification, in whole or in part, hereunder, (vii) that could reasonably be expected to result in suspension of debarment of the Purchaser or the Company by a Governmental Authority, (viii) that could reasonably be expected to exceed the unreserved or unclaimed amount remaining in the General Escrow Account, (ix) for which any insurer requires that such insurer control the matter as a condition to eligibility to recover insurance proceeds on account of such claim, (x) that involves a customer of the Company, (xi) that is made by a Governmental Authority, or (xii) that is not being reasonably, diligently and in good faith defended by the Indemnifying Party or (xiii) for which a conflict of interest exists which would prohibit a single legal counsel from representing both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party. The party that controls the defense, compromise or settlement of a Third Party Claim shall keep the other party reasonably informed of material developments and events relating to such claim. The party that is not conducting the defense shall provide the party conducting the defense and its counsel with reasonable access during normal business hours to such party’s records and personnel relating to any Third Party Claim and shall otherwise reasonably cooperate with the party conducting the defense in the defense or settlement thereof.

(e) Any final judgment entered or settlement agreed upon in the manner provided herein shall be binding upon the Indemnifying Party, and shall conclusively be deemed to be an obligation with respect to which the Indemnified Party is entitled to prompt indemnification hereunder.

(f) A failure by an Indemnified Party to give timely, complete or accurate notice as provided in this Section 10.4 will not affect the rights or obligations of any party hereunder except and only to the extent that, as a result of such failure, any party entitled to receive such notice was deprived of its right to recover any payment under its applicable insurance coverage or was otherwise directly and materially damaged as a result of such failure to give timely notice.

Section 10.5 Indemnification Procedures for Non-Third Party Claims. In the event an Indemnified Party should have a claim against an Indemnifying Party hereunder which does not involve a Third Party Claim (a “Direct Claim”), the Indemnified Party shall transmit to the Indemnifying Party a written notice (the “Direct Indemnification Notice”) describing in good faith, on a non-binding basis, the Direct Claim, an estimate of the amount of damages attributable to such Direct Claim and the basis of the Indemnified Party’s request for indemnification under this Agreement; provided that failure to provide such notice promptly shall not affect the rights of such Indemnified Party, except to the extent set forth in Section 10.4(f). If the Indemnifying Party does not notify (the “Direct Indemnification Defense Notice”) the Indemnified Party in writing within thirty (30) days from its receipt of the Direct Indemnification Notice that the Indemnifying Party disputes such Direct Claim, the Direct Claim specified by the Indemnified Party in the Direct Indemnification Notice shall be deemed a liability of the Indemnifying Party hereunder. If the Indemnifying Party has timely disputed such Direct Claim, as provided above, such dispute shall be resolved as provided in Sections 12.9 and 12.10 hereof.

Section 10.6 Certain Limitations on Remedies.

(a) The representations and warranties of the parties hereto contained in or arising out of this Agreement or otherwise in connection herewith shall survive the Closing hereunder and shall continue in full force and effect thereafter until the Expiration Date, except (i) the matters referenced in Section 10.1(a)(ii) through (x) and the representations and warranties set forth in Article 5 shall survive until thirty (30) days after the expiration of all applicable statutes of limitations (including any amendments extending said statutes), and (ii) the representations and warranties contained in Section 4.22 (Taxes) shall survive until thirty (30) days after the expiration of all applicable statutes of limitations (including any amendments extending said statutes) (and not less than six (6) years). The covenants contained in this Agreement and the Transaction Documents shall survive until fully performed. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, indemnification for any claim for which written notice as provided in this Article 10 has been timely given prior to the expiration of the representation, warranty, or covenant upon which such claim is based as provided herein shall not expire, and such claim for indemnification may be pursued, until the final resolution of such claim in accordance with the provisions of this Article 10.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, the obligation to indemnify the Parent Indemnified Parties shall not arise unless and until the Losses incurred by all Parent Indemnified Parties, in the aggregate, as a result thereof exceed, in the aggregate, one-half of one percent (0.5%) of the Base Purchase Price (the “Basket”) (at which point, the Parent Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to indemnification for all Losses that exceed one-quarter of one percent (0.25%) of the Base Purchase Price (the “Deductible”); provided, that neither the Basket nor the Deductible shall apply to indemnification obligations or Losses with respect to the matters referenced in Section 10.1(a)(ii) through (x).

(c) For purposes of determining the amount of any Losses with respect to any breach of any representation, warranty or covenant for purposes of indemnification under this Article 10 (but not whether any such breach has occurred), any qualification or limitation of a representation, warranty or covenant by reference to materiality of matters stated therein or as to matters having or not having “Material Adverse Effect,” “materiality” or words of similar effect, shall be disregarded. The indemnification obligations of the Stockholders and Option Holders and the rights and remedies that may be exercised by a Parent Indemnified Party are part of the basis of the bargain contemplated by this Agreement and shall not be waived, limited or otherwise affected by or as a result of any information furnished to, or any investigation made by or knowledge of, any of the Parent Indemnified Parties or any of their Representatives.

(d) The maximum amount that the Parent Indemnified Parties may recover from the Principal Equityholders pursuant to Section 10.1(a) above shall be limited to (i) an amount equal to the General Escrow Fund (“General Cap”) with respect to Losses under Section 10.1(a)(i); and (ii) an amount equal to the Merger Consideration actually paid or payable by the Parent with respect to Losses under Section 10.1(a)(ii) through (x); provided, however, that any claims based on or involving intentional Fraud or willful misconduct shall not be limited in amount, and only the Principal Equityholder(s) who committed or were involved in such intentional Fraud or willful misconduct shall be responsible for any Losses greater than the Merger Consideration actually paid or payable by the Parent.

(e) Distributions from the General Escrow Funds pursuant to this Section 10.6 shall be made by the joint written instructions executed by the Parent and the Representative delivered to the Escrow Agent. In the event of a dispute regarding distributions from the General Escrow Funds, such dispute shall be resolved in accordance with Section 12.10, and the Escrow Agent shall make (or withhold) distributions pursuant to the arbitration award in settlement of such dispute. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary contained herein, distributions to the Parent from the General Escrow Funds shall be deemed paid pro-rata by the Holders.

(f) The amount of any Losses for which indemnification is provided shall be reduced by any Tax benefit actually received in connection with such Loss.

(g) Parent and the Representative shall cooperate with each other in good faith with respect to resolving any Liability or minimizing Losses with respect to which one party is obligated to indemnify hereunder, including by making commercially reasonable efforts to resolve, mitigate or minimize any such Liability or Loss; provided, however, that no Person shall be required to initiate litigation or arbitration proceedings.

(h) In no event shall any Person obligated to indemnify another Person be responsible or liable for any Losses under this Article 10 that are (i) punitive damages; (ii) indirect damages that are not reasonably foreseeable under Delaware law; or (iii) speculative damages, except, in the case of any of the foregoing clauses (i), (ii) or (iii), to the extent that the Indemnifying Party has paid or must pay such damages to an unaffiliated third party in respect of a Third-Party Claim.

(i) The amount of any Loss for which indemnification is provided under this Article 10 shall be net of any amounts actually recovered by the Indemnified Party under insurance policies in effect less any reasonable out-of-pocket costs, fees or expenses (including any increased premiums) associated with obtaining such recovery. Each Indemnified Party agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to seek recovery under such insurance policies; provided, however, that such commercially reasonable efforts shall not include any obligation to commence or prosecute any litigation or other legal proceedings against any insurer.

(j) This Article 10 contains the sole and exclusive remedy of the parties in connection with the Transactions, except (i) with respect to intentional Fraud or willful misconduct, (ii) with respect to the procedures and remedies in Section 3.6 and Section 3.7; (iii) with respect to the procedures and remedies as to Tax matters in Article 11; or (iv) the rights of the parties to injunctive relief, specific performance or other equitable rights or remedies under Section 12.10(g); provided, that the parties acknowledge and agree that no party shall seek to rescind the Transaction from and after Closing.

Section 10.7 Priorities and Offset.

(a) In the event that the Representative does not dispute a claim for indemnification hereunder, or the parties or a court shall have resolved any such claim for indemnification in favor of a Parent Indemnified Party, or any other indemnification obligation is owed to a Parent Indemnified Party, the Parent shall have the right, and the obligation, to offset the monetary amount thereof as follows: (1) first, against any portion of the General Escrow Funds that is immediately available in accordance with the Escrow Agreement (and not already subject to any prior, pending, unpaid and unresolved claims made pursuant to and in accordance with this Agreement); and (2) second, against any portion of the Earnout Amount that has been finally determined to be due and payable and has not yet been paid (and is not already subject to any prior, pending, unpaid and unresolved claims made pursuant to and in accordance with this Agreement); and, thereafter, Parent may pursue any other remedy available hereunder against the Principal Equityholders, subject to the terms hereof; provided, however, in the event any portion of the General Escrow Funds are used to satisfy any claim under Sections 10.1(a)(ii) through (x) (the amount thereof referred to herein as the “Escrow Deficiency”), then, with respect to any indemnification obligation for a claim under Section 10.1(a)(i), in addition to any other indemnification obligation hereunder, the Principal Equityholders shall also be jointly and severally responsible to the Parent Indemnified Parties for the amount of such obligation to the extent such obligation exceeds the then available Escrow Funds and in an amount up to the Escrow Deficiency, and the Parent shall have the right, but not the obligation, to obtain satisfaction of such claim from the Principal Equityholders before offsetting against the Earnout Amount or otherwise.

(b) If the Representative has disputed any claim for Losses by any Indemnified Party in accordance herewith and such dispute has not been resolved, the amount of such disputed Losses shall be retained as General Escrow Funds in accordance with the Escrow Agreement, or shall reduce Earnout Amount, until such claim has been resolved pursuant to (i) a written settlement agreement entered into by the Parent and the Representative or (ii) a final decision, order or award issued by an arbitrator or a court in accordance with this Agreement.

(c) No exercise of, nor failure to exercise, the rights set forth in this Section 10.7 shall constitute an election of remedies or limit any Indemnified Party’s other rights hereunder or otherwise. Such remedy shall be in addition to and not in limitation of any injunctive relief or other rights or remedies to which the Parent or any Indemnified Party is or may be entitled at law, in equity, under this Agreement (including any exhibits hereto) or otherwise. The exercise of rights in good faith hereunder, whether or not ultimately determined to be justified, shall not constitute a breach of any covenant hereunder.

ARTICLE 11

Section 11.1 Filing Responsibility.

(a) The Representative shall timely prepare and file, or cause to be timely prepared and filed, all Tax Returns of the Company for all Tax periods ending on or prior to the Closing Date that are due after the Closing Date and relate to Income Taxes (“Pre-Closing Returns”), and the Taxes provided thereon shall be paid by Parent to the extent reflected on the Closing Balance Sheet and taken into account in determining the Final Working Capital or from the General Escrow Funds if such Taxes are not reserved against on the Closing Balance Sheet. The Representative shall provide, or cause to be provided, to the Parent a final draft of such Pre-Closing Return at least thirty (30) days prior to the due date for filing such Tax Return (including all applicable extensions), for review by the Parent which Tax Return shall be completed consistent with applicable Law, and, to the extent not inconsistent with applicable Law, the past practice of the Company in their Tax Return preparation. Within fifteen (15) days following the receipt of the draft, the Parent may notify the Representative of any reasonable objections the Parent may have to any items set forth in such draft Tax Return, the basis of which is inconsistency with applicable Law or with past practice of the Company and the Parent and the Representative shall consult in good faith and attempt to resolve any such objection and to mutually consent to the filing of such Tax Return; provided that if the Representative and the Parent are unable to resolve any objection raised by the Parent, within ten (10) days after the Parent notifies the Representative of any objection relating to such Tax Return, the dispute shall be submitted to the Accountants for resolution in accordance with Section 3.6(e).

(b) The Parent shall timely prepare and file, or cause to be timely prepared and filed, all other Tax Returns of the Company for all Tax periods that end after the Closing Date, and timely pay, or cause to be paid, when due, all Taxes relating to such returns; provided that the Taxes provided thereon that are allocable to a pre-Closing period shall be paid by Parent to the extent reflected on the Closing Balance Sheet and taken into account in determining the Final Working Capital or from the General Escrow Funds if such Taxes are not reserved against on the Closing Balance Sheet. The Parent shall provide, or cause to be provided, to the Representative a substantially final draft of each such Tax Return relating to a Straddle Period at least thirty (30) days prior to the due date for filing such Tax Return (including all applicable extensions), for review by the Representative. Within fifteen (15) days following receipt of the draft, the Representative shall notify the Parent of any reasonable objections the Representative may have to any items set forth in such draft Tax Return and the Parent and the Representative shall consult and resolve in good faith and attempt to resolve any such objection and to mutually consent to the filing of such Tax Return; provided that if the Representative and the Parent are unable to resolve any objection raised by the Representative within ten (10) days after the Representative notifies the Parent of any objection relating to such Tax Return, the dispute shall be submitted to the Accountants for resolution in accordance with Section 3.6(e).

Section 11.2 Cooperation and Records Retention. The Representative and the Parent shall (a) each provide the other, and the Parent shall cause the Company to provide the Representative, with such assistance as may be reasonably requested by any of them in connection with the preparation of any Tax Return, audit, or other examination by any taxing authority or judicial or administrative proceedings relating to liability for Taxes, (b) each retain and provide the other, and the Parent shall cause the Company to retain and provide the Representative with, any records or other information that may be relevant to such Tax Return, audit or examination, proceeding, or determination, and (c) each provide the other with any final determination of any such audit or examination, proceeding, or determination that affects any amount required to be shown on any Tax Return of the Company for any period. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Parent shall retain, and shall cause the Company to retain, until the applicable statutes of limitations (including any extensions) have expired, copies of all Tax Returns, supporting work schedules, and other records or information that may be relevant to such returns for all Tax periods or portions thereof ending before or including the Closing Date and shall not destroy or otherwise dispose of any such records without first providing the Representative with a reasonable opportunity to review and copy the same. Each Party shall bear its own expenses in complying with the foregoing provisions of this Section 11.3, provided that the Parent shall pay the expenses incurred in connection with any Tax Return prepared or caused to be prepared by the Representative up to the amount accrued on the Closing Balance Sheet for the cost of preparing such Tax Returns.

ARTICLE 12
MISCELLANEOUS

Section 12.1 Representative.

(a) The Representative may be removed at any time upon the written election of the Holders representing at least 75% of the aggregate Ownership Interests; provided that such Holders concurrently elect a replacement Representative and Parent is given prompt written notice of such replacement by the Representative (and such appointment is not binding on Parent until after Parent receives such written notice). By virtue of the execution of the Principal Equityholders Agreement by each Principal Equityholder, by the execution of the Option Cancellation Agreement by each Option Holder, by the execution of the Letter of Transmittal by each Holder and by the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, each Holder has constituted and hereby constitutes and appoints the Representative, including any replacement of any such Representative, as attorney-in-fact with full power of substitution and authority to execute any amendment or waiver of this Agreement and any other document or instrument necessary or advisable in order to carry out the provisions of this Agreement, to give and receive notices and communications, to dispute any claim any Parent Indemnified Party with respect to indemnification hereunder, to agree to, negotiate, enter into settlements and compromises of, and to comply with orders of courts with respect to any dispute or loss, and to take all actions necessary or appropriate in the judgment of the Representative for the accomplishment of the foregoing. The Holders shall, pro-rata based upon their Ownership Interest, be responsible for the payment of all fees and expenses reasonably incurred by the Representative in performing its duties under this Agreement; provided, that Parent shall have no obligation or Liability arising from or relating to any claim or dispute between any Holder and the Representative under this Section 12.1 (and Parent’s rights, including Parent’s right to rely on the actions and decisions of the Representative and other rights under this Agreement) shall not be affected in any way thereby. All actions and decisions of the Representative may be relied upon by the Parent, the Company and any third person, and shall be binding and conclusive upon each Shareholder.

(b) The Representative shall be entitled to recover from the Principal Equityholders, on a pro-rata basis based upon the Principal Equityholder’s respective ownership interest in the Company Shares, any fees and expenses that the Representative may incur in his capacity as such pursuant to this Agreement. In that regard, the Representative shall be entitled to retain Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) of the Closing Merger Consideration otherwise payable to the Principal Equityholders (the “Expense Funds”) as a reserve against the payment of expenses incurred in his capacity as the Representative, to be used by the Representative to pay any expenses incurred by the Representative in such capacity. The Expense Funds shall be deemed paid to the Principal Equityholders at Closing for all purposes hereunder and under applicable Laws.

Section 12.4 Invalid Provisions. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable under any present or future Law, and if the rights or obligations of any party hereto under this Agreement will not be materially and adversely affected thereby, (a) such provision will be fully severable, (b) this Agreement will be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part hereof, (c) the remaining provisions of this Agreement will remain in full force and effect and will not be affected by the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision or by its severance herefrom and (d) in lieu of such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision, there will be added automatically as a part of this Agreement a legal, valid and enforceable provision as similar in terms to such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision as may be possible.

Section 12.5 Amendment and Waiver. This Agreement may be amended, or any provision of this Agreement may be waived, provided that any such amendment or waiver will be binding on (a) Parent only if such amendment or waiver is set forth in a writing executed by Parent, (b) the Company only if such amendment or waiver is set forth in a writing executed by the Representative, and (c) the Representative and all Shareholders and Option Holders only if such amendment or waiver is set forth in a writing executed by the Representative pursuant to Section 12.1(a). The waiver by any party hereto of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a continuing waiver or as a waiver of any other breach.

Section 12.6 Further Assurances. Each party will execute all documents and take such other actions as any other party may reasonably request in order to consummate the transactions provided for herein and to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement.

Section 12.7 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which, taken together, shall constitute one (1) and the same agreement, binding on the parties hereto. The signature of any party hereto to any counterpart hereof shall be deemed a signature to, and may be appended to, any other counterpart hereof. In the event that any signature to this Agreement or any Transaction Document is delivered by facsimile transmission or by e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such facsimile or “.pdf” signature page were an original thereof. No party hereto shall raise the use of a facsimile machine or e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file to deliver a signature to this Agreement or Transaction Document or the fact that such signature was transmitted or communicated through the use of a facsimile machine or e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file as a defense to the formation or enforceability of a contract and each party hereto forever waives any such defense.

Section 12.8 Expenses. Each of the parties hereto shall pay all costs and expenses incurred or to be incurred by it in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Transaction Documents and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby; provided, however, that any Transaction Related Expenses shall be borne by the Shareholders and Option Holders and paid as provided herein.

Section 12.9 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to conflicts of laws principles, except that the filing of the Certificate of Merger and matters of internal corporate governance of the Company and the Merger Sub shall be governed by the laws of the State of Alabama.

Section 12.10 Dispute Resolution. The parties recognize that disputes may arise in the future concerning this Agreement or any ancillary document executed in connection with this Agreement (a “Dispute”). Therefore, except to the extent that Disputes are covered by Section 3.6 and Section 3.7, and except as set forth below in Section 12.10(f), the parties shall resolve any and all such Disputes of any nature whatsoever in the following manner:

(a) Negotiation. In the event of a Dispute, the Parties shall attempt to settle such Dispute through informal negotiations. To this effect, they shall consult and negotiate with each other in good faith and, recognizing their mutual interests, attempt to reach a just and equitable solution satisfactory to both parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 12.10 shall preclude any party from commencing arbitration at any time.

(b) Arbitration. Any Dispute, which remains unresolved, shall be submitted to binding arbitration in accordance with Chapter 1, Title 9 of the United States Code (Federal Arbitration Act). Arbitration shall be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules as supplemented by its Supplementary Procedures for Complex Cases.

(c) Situs. The situs of the arbitration shall be in Huntsville, Alabama; provided, however, the parties shall use best efforts to conduct any arbitration via an online meeting platform such as Zoom or Webex.

(d) Number and Qualification of Arbitrators. The arbitration shall be decided by a panel of three (3) neutral arbitrators. AAA shall recommend arbitrators from its commercial panel, giving due regard to the Parties’ desire to have arbitrators with experience in hearing commercial arbitrations. The arbitrators shall be selected in accordance with AAA Commercial Arbitration Rules. Recognizing the intent of the parties to obtain impartial, independent decisions and rulings, each arbitrator shall disclose to the parties and to the other parties of the panel, any professional, familial or social relationship, present or past relationship, with any party or counsel. Any party may challenge in writing the appointment or continued service of any arbitrator for lack of independence, partiality or any other case likely to impair such arbitrator’s ability to render a fair and equitable decision. Where such challenge is made to an arbitrator, the AAA shall uphold or dismiss the challenge. In the event the challenge is upheld, such arbitrator shall cease to be a member of the panel. Any arbitrator may be removed upon agreement of the parties.

(e) Remedies. All decisions or rulings of the panel, as well as any interim or final award, shall be pursuant to the majority vote of three (3) arbitrators comprising the panel. Except as provided in this Section 12.10, the arbitrators shall have authority to award any remedy or relief that a court of the State of Delaware or Alabama, or a court of the United States of America, could award or grant, including, without limitation, specific performance of any obligation created under this Agreement, the issuance of an injunction, pre-judgment or post-judgment interest, or the imposition of sanctions for abuse or frustration of the arbitration process.

(f) Interim Equitable Relief. Any party hereto may, unless expressly prohibited hereunder, seek from a court any interim or provisional equitable relief that may be necessary to protect the rights or property of that party pending the selection of the arbitrator or pending the arbitrator’s determination of the merits of the controversy.

(g) Waiver of Jury Trial. Each Party irrevocably waives any and all right to a trial by jury of any claim or cause of action in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions or events contemplated hereby.

(h) Fees and Expenses. Parent on the one hand, and the Representative on the other hand, shall each bear one-half of the costs and fees of the arbitrators, including the arbitrators’ hourly rates, travel expenses and other out-of-pocket expenses; provided, however, the arbitrators shall have the discretion and authority to award the prevailing party, if any, as determined by the arbitrators, such party’s share of such costs and fees.

Section 12.11 Headings. The subject headings of Articles and Sections of this Agreement are included for purposes of convenience only and shall not affect the construction or interpretation of any of its provisions.

Section 12.12 Assignment. This Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns, but this Agreement and all rights and interests hereunder will not be assignable, transferable or delegable by any party hereto without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto and, in addition, as mentioned in Section 3.7, the contingent right to receive the Earnout Amount is not assignable or transferable; provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement shall or is intended to limit the ability of the Parent to assign its rights or delegate its responsibilities, liabilities and obligations under this Agreement, in whole or in part, without the consent of the Company to any Affiliate of Parent at any time, whether prior to, as of, or following the Closing Date.

Section 12.13 Interpretation. The Parties acknowledge and agree that this Agreement has been negotiated at arm’s length between parties equally sophisticated and knowledgeable in the matters dealt with herein. Each Party has been represented by counsel of its or his own choosing. Accordingly, any rule of law or legal decision that would require interpretation of any ambiguities in the Agreement against the party that drafted it is not applicable and is waived.

Section 12.14 Publicity. The parties agree that they shall not issue any announcement or press release relating, directly or indirectly, to the transactions contemplated hereby unless such announcement or release is mutually agreed to by each of the parties hereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each party may release such information that is required of them pursuant to any Law; provided that such releasing party (prior to such release) immediately inform the other parties hereto regarding the requirement and content of such release.

Section 12.15 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Preamble, all the Disclosure Schedules and Exhibits attached to this Agreement and the Transaction Documents (all of which shall be deemed incorporated in the Agreement and made a part hereof), set forth the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede all prior agreements, written or oral, of the parties hereto and thereto, and shall not be modified or affected by any offer, proposal, statement or representation, oral or written, made by or for any party in connection with the negotiation of the terms hereof, and this Agreement may be modified only as provided in Section 12.5.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each of the Parties has caused this Agreement to be signed by a duly authorized Person as of the date first above written.
