7.2 Indemnification.
(a) General Indemnification. ORA covenants and agrees to indemnify, defend, protect and hold harmless Monaco, Buyer and their affiliates (each an “Indemnified Party”) from, against and in respect of any claim, loss, expense, liability or other damage (including without limitation any liability of Monaco, Buyer or any of their affiliates for expenses incurred by the Company related to the transactions contemplated hereby), including reasonable attorneys’ fees, to the extent of the amount of such claim, loss, expense, liability or other damage that Monaco, Buyer or any of their affiliates have incurred or reasonably and in good faith anticipates incurring (i) by reason of the inaccuracy or breach of any representation or warranty of the Company and ORA contained herein or in any certificate, instrument, or other document delivered pursuant to this Agreement, subject to Section 7.1, (ii) by reason of a breach of any covenant or agreement, of the Company and ORA contained herein, (iii) relating to ORA’s and Company’s Unknown Environmental Liabilities, but only to the extent of any Environmental Remediation Costs, (iv) by reason of Company’s Benefit Liabilities, (v) relating to Taxes attributable to ORA or a member of ORA’s affiliated group (as defined in Section 1504(a)) of the Code (other than the Company) as a result of the Company having been a member of ORA’s affiliated group or having filed a consolidated (or similar) return with the ORA affiliated group or (vi) relating to any and all payroll, employee related or income taxes whensoever arising with respect to or relating to the Company that are attributable to any taxable period ending on or prior to the Closing Date and, in case of a taxable period that includes, but does not end on the Closing Date, the portion of such taxable period that ends on the Closing Date (all of the foregoing collectively “Losses”); provided, however, that Monaco and Buyer shall only have the right to be indemnified against Losses described in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above if, and to the extent that, the aggregate of the Losses (as such term is defined in each of this Agreement, the ORN Agreement and the ORLV Agreement) under this Agreement, the ORN Agreement and the ORLV Agreement exceeds $250,000 (though the right to offset Losses set forth in Section 9.2(b) shall apply to all Losses and not solely to the amount of Losses above and beyond such $250,000 threshold). After the Closing, ORA’s aggregate contractual liability for Losses under this Agreement, the ORN Agreement and the ORLV Agreement shall not exceed the Indemnification Cap; provided, however, that nothing herein shall limit any noncontractual remedy for fraud. For the purpose of determining the amount of any Loss for which any of the indemnified parties may be entitled to indemnification by ORA pursuant to this ARTICLE VII, any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement or in any certificate, instrument, or other document delivered pursuant to this Agreement that is qualified by a term or terms such as “material,” “materially,” or “Material Adverse Effect,” shall be deemed made or given without such qualification.
(b) Exclusive Remedy. Except as provided in Section 10.10 and except for remedies relating to fraud, the provisions of this ARTICLE VII shall constitute the sole and exclusive remedy of the Indemnified Parties with respect to any Losses.
45
(c) Indemnification Procedures. All claims for indemnification under this ARTICLE VII shall be asserted and resolved as follows:
(i) Indemnification Claims. In the event that an Indemnified Party has a claim for Losses hereunder which does not involve claim being asserted against or sought to be collected by a third party, Monaco shall deliver to ORA and each of the Principals a certificate signed by any officer of Monaco (an “Officer’s Certificate”): (A) stating that Monaco (or an Indemnified Party) has paid or properly accrued or reasonably and in good faith anticipates that it will have to pay or accrue Losses, and (B) specifying in reasonable detail the individual items of Losses included in the amount so stated, the date each such item was paid or properly accrued, or the basis for such anticipated liability, and the nature of the misrepresentation, breach of warranty or claim to which such item is related. If ORA does not notify Monaco in writing within thirty (30) days from the date of receipt of the Officer’s Certificate that ORA objects to any claim or claims made in any Officer’s Certificate, the amount of the claim for Losses contained in the Officer’s Certificate shall be conclusively deemed a liability of the indemnifying party hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Monaco may not deliver an Officer’s Certificate to ORA to seek indemnification from ORA pursuant to this Section 7.2 for Losses relating to the inaccuracy or breach of any representation or warranty of ORA contained herein or in any certificate, instrument, or other document delivered pursuant to this Agreement after the applicable representations or warranties have terminated in accordance with Section 7.1.
(ii) Resolution of Conflicts.
(1) In case ORA shall so object in writing to any claim or claims made in any Officer’s Certificate, ORA and Monaco shall attempt in good faith to agree upon the rights of the respective parties with respect to each of such claims. If ORA and Monaco should so agree, a memorandum setting forth such agreement shall be prepared and signed by both parties.
(iii) If no such agreement can be reached after good faith negotiation, either Monaco or ORA may demand arbitration of the matter as set forth below in Section 7.3 unless the amount of the damage or loss is at issue in pending litigation with a third party, in which event arbitration shall not be commenced until such amount is ascertained by court judgment or settlement of the parties to the litigation or Monaco and ORA agree to arbitration.
(d) Third-Party Claims. In the event Monaco becomes aware of a third-party claim which Monaco believes may result in a claim by Monaco for indemnification pursuant to this ARTICLE VII, Monaco shall notify ORA of such claim, and ORA shall be entitled, at its expense, to participate in any defense of such claim. Monaco shall have the right in its sole discretion to settle any such claim; provided, however, that except with the consent of ORA, no settlement of any such claim with third-party claimants shall alone be determinative of the amount of any claim against ORA under this Section 7.2. In the event that ORA has consented to any such settlement, ORA shall have no power or authority to object under any provision of this ARTICLE VII to the amount of any claim by Monaco against ORA for indemnification with respect to such settlement.
46
7.3 Arbitration.
(a) The resolution of any disputes arising under this ARTICLE VII shall be settled by Arbitration. Such arbitration shall be conducted by three arbitrators. Monaco shall select one arbitrator and ORA shall select one arbitrator. The two arbitrators so selected shall select a third arbitrator. The decision of a majority of the three arbitrators as to the validity and amount of any claim in an Officer’s Certificate shall be binding and conclusive upon the parties to this Agreement.
Judgment upon any award rendered by the arbitrators may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. Any such arbitration shall be held in Lane County, Oregon under the rules then in effect of the American Arbitration Association. For purposes of this subsection, in any arbitration hereunder in which any claim or the amount thereof stated in the Officer’s Certificate is at issue, Monaco shall be deemed to be the Non-Prevailing Party in the event that the arbitrators award Monaco less than the sum of one half of the disputed amount plus any amounts not in dispute; otherwise, ORA shall be deemed to be the Non-Prevailing Party. Each party shall pay its own expenses and one-half the fees of each arbitrator and the administrative fee of the American Arbitration Association; provided, however, that the arbitrators may require the Non-Prevailing Party to pay the expenses, including without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, incurred by the other party to the arbitration if the arbitrators find that the arbitration action was brought or defended other than in good faith and with a reasonable basis in fact by the Non-Prevailing Party.
7.4 Guaranty. In the event that after the procedures set forth above have been followed, an Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this ARTICLE VII, Monaco may, in its sole discretion, seek payment of such amount from either ORA pursuant to this Agreement or from the Principals pursuant to the Guaranty or both, provided that no Indemnified Party shall be entitled to receive in payment in aggregate in excess of the amount it is entitled to under this ARTICLE VII.
7.5 Subrogation. In the event ORA pays any Indemnified Party for Losses pursuant to Section 7.2 in connection with any third party claim, ORA shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment to all of the rights of recovery of the Company, Monaco and Buyer, which shall cooperate with ORA to enable ORA to secure such rights and to effectively to bring suit to enforce such rights.
7.6 Claims Made by ORA. If ORA brings an action against Monaco or Buyer relating to (i) the inaccuracy or breach of any representation or warranty of Monaco and Buyer contained herein or in any certificate, instrument, or other document delivered pursuant to this Agreement, subject to Section 7.1, or (ii) a breach of any covenant or agreement, of Monaco and Buyer contained herein, then ORA may recover from Monaco or Buyer for any loss, expense, liability or other damage (including without limitation any liability of ORA or any of its affiliates for expenses incurred by ORA related to the transactions contemplated hereby), including reasonable attorney’s fees, arising from (i) or (ii) above; provided, however, that ORA and its affiliates shall only have the right to such recovery if, and to the extent that, Monaco’s and Buyer’s aggregate contractual liability under this Agreement, the ORN Agreement and the ORLV Agreement exceeds $250,000. After the Closing, Monaco’s and Buyer’s aggregate contractual liability under this Agreement, the ORN Agreement and the ORLV Agreement shall not exceed the Indemnification Cap; provided, however, that nothing herein shall limit any noncontractual remedy for fraud.
