Following the Closing, Seller shall not retain copies of any of the Product Software or other Technology included in the Transferred Assets, even if such Transferred Assets are such that more than one copy may exist.

2.6 Assumed Liabilities

Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, at the Closing, Purchaser shall assume from Seller (and thereafter pay, perform, discharge or otherwise satisfy), the following Liabilities of the Business to the extent they arise from and after the Closing Date, and no others (collectively, the “Assumed Liabilities”):

If any of the Milestones are not achieved by the applicable dates referenced in Schedule 3.5 as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of Purchaser, Purchaser may deliver a notice (the “Milestone Notice”) to Seller and the Escrow Agent at any time within thirty (30) days of the expiration of the eighteen-month period following the Closing Date, requesting that a portion of the Escrow Fund (the “Milestone Adjustment Amount”) be delivered from the Escrow Fund to Purchaser. The Milestone Adjustment Amount shall be equal to Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000) multiplied by the number of Milestones that have not been achieved by the time required, up to a total amount equal to the Escrow Payment.

If no such objection is made within such 30-day period, the Escrow Agent shall deliver the Milestone Adjustment Amount to Purchaser without any further action by any party. If Seller objects within such 30-day period, the parties shall resolve such request and objection pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 8.5 as if the notice constituted an Officer’s Certificate thereunder. Any Milestone Adjustment Amount paid to Purchaser shall be deemed an adjustment of the Purchase Price for all purposes. In addition, if Seller believes that a Milestone has been achieved by the applicable date, Seller may deliver to Purchaser a written notice of completion (the “Milestone Completion Notice”) describing the Milestone and setting forth in reasonable detail the factual basis for Seller’s belief that the Milestone has been achieved. Purchaser shall have a period of not more than thirty (30) business days from receipt of the Milestone Completion Notice to reject the Milestone Completion Notice by delivering to Seller a written rejection setting forth in reasonable detail the factual basis for Purchaser’s belief that the Milestone has not been achieved. If no such rejection is made within such thirty (30) day period, the Milestone shall be for all purposes of this Agreement deemed achieved. If Purchaser rejects the Milestone Completion Notice within such thirty (30) day period, Seller may elect to withdraw the Milestone Completion Notice and subsequently provide a replacement Milestone Completion Notice after addressing Purchaser’s basis for rejection, or, if Seller does not so elect, the parties shall resolve such request and objection pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 8.5 as if the notice constituted an Officer’s Certificate thereunder. For purposes of clarification, none of the Escrow Fund shall be released to Seller upon the completion of any Milestone prior to the Escrow Period Termination (as defined in the Escrow Agreement), and the Escrow Fund shall remain available for purposes of indemnification until such time pursuant to the terms hereof and the Escrow Agreement.

3.6 Allocation of Purchase Price

Not later than 90 days following the Closing, Purchaser shall provide Seller with an allocation of the Purchase Price (the “Allocation”). Such Allocation shall be prepared in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code, or any successor thereto, and the regulations promulgated thereunder. The Allocation shall be conclusive and binding upon the Parties for all tax purposes, and the Parties agree that all returns and reports (including IRS Form 8594) shall be prepared in a manner consistent with (and the Parties shall not otherwise file a tax return position inconsistent with) the Allocation unless required by the IRS or any other applicable taxing authority.

3.7 Transfer Taxes

3.8 Expenses

Except as otherwise provided herein, each Party shall be solely responsible for its own costs and expenses (including those of its employees and attorneys’ and other advisors’ fees) incurred in negotiating and consummating the Transactions.

3.9 Withholding Taxes

Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, Purchaser shall have the right to deduct and withhold Taxes from any payments to be made hereunder if such withholding is required by law and to request any necessary Tax forms, including Form W-9 or the appropriate series of Form W-8, as applicable, or any similar information, from the direct or indirect recipients of payments hereunder. To the extent that amounts are so withheld, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been delivered and paid to the recipient of the payment in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made. The foregoing notwithstanding, Purchaser shall withhold no portion of the Purchase Price pursuant to this Section 3.9, unless required by applicable Legal Requirements.

ARTICLE 8

SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES; INDEMNIFICATION

8.1 Survival of Representations and Warranties

The representations and warranties of Seller contained in this Agreement, or in any certificate or other instrument delivered pursuant to this Agreement, shall survive the Closing and continue in full force and effect until and terminate upon the end of the day on the date eighteen (18) months following the Closing Date (the “Survival Date”); provided, however, that the following representations and warranties (the “Special Representations”) shall survive for longer periods as follows: (a) the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement (including but not limited to Section 4.2 (Authorization of Transactions)), or in any certificate or other instrument delivered pursuant to this Agreement, with respect to due authorization to enter into this Agreement and complete the Transactions shall survive indefinitely and not terminate; (b) the representations and warranties contained in Section 4.8 (Title of Properties; Absence of Liens and Encumbrances; Condition), Section 4.9 (Intellectual Property), Section 4.13 (Transferred Assets), Section 4.16 (Employee Benefits) and Section 4.20 (Tax Matters), shall survive until the expiration of the applicable statutes of limitations; and (c) in the event of fraud or the willful or intentional breach of a representation, warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement, or in any certificate or other instrument delivered pursuant to this Agreement, as applicable, such representation, warranty or covenant shall survive indefinitely and not terminate. The representations and warranties of Purchaser contained in this Agreement, or in any certificate or other instrument delivered pursuant to this Agreement, shall terminate on the Survival Date. If a claim for indemnification under Section 8.2 arises on or before the Survival Date or other applicable date of expiration and Purchaser delivers a notice of such claim no later than thirty (30) days after such date, then the claims contained in such notice shall survive for the benefit of all Indemnified Parties beyond the Survival Date or other applicable date of expiration until such claims are settled or otherwise resolved.

8.2 Indemnification

Seller and his successors and assigns (together, the “Indemnifying Party”) will indemnify and hold Purchaser and each of Purchaser’s subsidiaries and other affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and representatives (the “Indemnified Parties”), harmless against all claims, losses, liabilities, diminution in value, damages, deficiencies, interest, penalties, taxes, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses of investigation and defense (hereinafter individually a “Loss” and collectively “Losses”) paid, sustained, incurred or accrued by the Indemnified Parties, directly or indirectly, as a result of (a) any breach or inaccuracy of a representation or warranty of Seller contained in this Agreement or in any certificate, instrument, or other document delivered by Seller pursuant to this Agreement (without, for purposes of determining the amount of any such Loss, giving effect to any limitation as to “materiality,” “material adverse effect,” or similar qualifications set forth therein); (b) any failure by Seller to perform or comply with any covenant applicable to Seller contained in this Agreement or any agreement delivered by Seller pursuant to this Agreement, including without limitation Seller’s Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation Agreement as shown in Exhibit A-1; (c) any Excluded Liabilities; (d) any failure of Seller to comply with any applicable bulk transfer or similar laws with respect to the Transactions; (e) any amount by which the Actual Purchase Price Adjustment is greater than the Estimated Purchase Price Adjustment (if and to extent the excess is greater than the amount by which the Holdback Amount is reduced pursuant to Section 3.4(b)), or any inaccuracy in the calculation of the Actual Purchase Price Adjustment based upon Purchaser’s review of the final calculations of the Assumed Liabilities set forth on Schedule 2.6(d) and Prepaid Expenses at any time following receipt of such amounts pursuant to Section 7.3.

8.3 Source of Indemnification

Subject to Section 8.7, the amount of any Losses shall be recoverable by Purchaser either through recourse to the Escrow Fund or by proceeding against the Indemnifying Party directly, or a combination of the two, as may be determined in Purchaser’s sole discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of fraud or intentional or willful breach of a representation, warranty or covenant of Seller contained in this Agreement or in any certificate, instrument, or other document delivered by Seller pursuant to this Agreement, Purchaser may seek any remedy to which it is entitled under law or equity.

8.4 Indemnification Procedure

If an Indemnified Party seeks indemnification under this ARTICLE 8, Purchaser shall deliver an Officer’s Certificate to Seller and the Escrow Agent, if the Escrow Period has not expired. Seller may object to such claim by delivering written notice to Purchaser (and the Escrow Agent, if the Escrow Period has not expired) specifying the basis for such objection within thirty (30) days following receipt by Seller of notice from Purchaser regarding such claim. If no such objection is made within such 30-day period, the Indemnified Party may recover Losses without further consent or approval required of the Indemnifying Party. For the purposes hereof, “Officer’s Certificate” shall mean a certificate signed by any officer of Purchaser (i) stating that an Indemnified Party has paid, sustained, incurred or accrued, or in good faith reasonably anticipates that it will pay, sustain, incur or accrue Losses, and (ii) specifying in reasonable detail the individual items of Losses included in the amount so stated, the date each such item was paid, sustained, incurred or accrued, or the basis for such anticipated liability.

8.5 Resolution of Conflicts; Arbitration..

(a) If Seller shall object in writing to any claim or claims made in any Officer’s Certificate to recover Losses within thirty (30) days after delivery of such Officer’s Certificate, Seller and Purchaser shall attempt in good faith to agree upon the rights of the respective parties with respect to each of such claims. If Seller and Purchaser should so agree, a memorandum setting forth such agreement shall be prepared and signed by both Parties, at which time the claim shall be promptly paid, expensed or settled, as the case may be.

(b) If no such agreement can be reached after good faith negotiation and prior to sixty (60) days after delivery of an Officer’s Certificate, Seller or Purchaser may demand arbitration of the matter unless the amount of the Loss is at issue in pending litigation with a third party, in which event arbitration shall not be commenced until such amount is ascertained or both Parties agree to arbitration, and in either such event the matter shall be settled by arbitration conducted pursuant to Section 10.4.

(c) Arbitration under Section 10.4 shall apply to any dispute among the Indemnifying Party, on the one hand, and the Indemnified Parties, on the other hand, under this ARTICLE 8 hereof, whether relating to claims upon the Escrow Fund or to the other indemnification obligations set forth in this ARTICLE 8.

(d) The decision of the arbitrator or a majority of the three arbitrators, as the case may be, as to the validity and amount of any claim in such Officer’s Certificate shall be final, binding, and conclusive upon the Parties to this Agreement, including the Indemnifying Party and any Indemnified Party. Such decision shall be written and shall be supported by written findings of fact and conclusions which shall set forth the award, judgment, decree or order awarded by the arbitrator(s), and the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to rely on, and make distributions from the Escrow Fund in accordance with, the terms of such award, judgment, decree or order, as applicable. Within 30 days of a decision of the arbitrator(s) requiring payment by one Party to another, such Party shall make the payment to such other Party, including any distributions out of the Escrow Fund, as applicable.

8.6 Third-Party Claims

In the event Purchaser becomes aware of a third-party claim that Purchaser reasonably believes may result in a demand for indemnification pursuant to this ARTICLE 8, Purchaser shall notify Seller of such claim, and Seller shall be entitled, at its expense, to participate in, but not to determine or conduct, the defense of such claim. Purchaser shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to conduct the defense of and settle any such claim; provided, however, that except with the consent of Seller, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld, no settlement of any such claim with third-party claimants shall be determinative of the amount of Losses relating to such matter. In the event that Seller has consented to any such settlement, the Indemnifying Party shall not have power or authority to object under any provision of this ARTICLE 8 to the amount of any claim by the Indemnified Party against the Escrow Fund or the Indemnifying Party directly, as the case may be, with respect to such settlement.

8.7 Limitations on Indemnity.

(a) Cap. Subject to Section 8.7(b), the liability of the Indemnifying Party for indemnification to the Indemnified Parties will be limited to the Escrow Fund whether or not the Survival Date has passed.

(b) Exceptions. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the limitations set forth in Section 8.7(a) will not apply to Losses which result from or are related to (i) fraud; (ii) willful breach of a representation, warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement or in any certificate or other instrument delivered pursuant to this Agreement; (iii) any breach of Section 4.2 (Authorization of Transactions), Section 4.5 (Ownership of the Business), Section 4.6 (Financial Information), Section 4.8 (Title of Properties; Absence of Liens and Encumbrances; Condition); Section 4.9 (Intellectual Property), Section 4.13 (Transferred Assets) and Section 4.20 (Tax Matters); or (iv) any Excluded Liabilities, and the liability of the Indemnifying Party for indemnification of Losses with respect to such matters shall not be limited in any manner under this Agreement. In addition, nothing herein shall limit the liability of Seller for any breach of any representation, warranty or covenant if the Closing does not occur, in which case Purchaser is entitled to any remedy available at law, in equity or under this Agreement, including seeking in such relief or monetary damages for breaches of ARTICLE 6 hereof.

8.8 Exclusive Remedy

From and after the Closing Date, the remedies under this ARTICLE 8 shall be the exclusive remedies of the Parties under this Agreement, other than in the event of fraud or willful breach.

ARTICLE 9

AMENDMENT AND WAIVER

9.1 Amendment

This Agreement may not be amended, modified, altered or supplemented other than by means of a written instrument duly executed and delivered on behalf of Seller and Purchaser.

9.2 Extension; Waiver

At any time prior to the Closing, Purchaser or Seller may, to the extent legally allowed, extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations of the other Party, or waive compliance with any of the agreements or conditions for the benefit of such Party contained herein.

10.2 Governing Law

This Agreement shall be governed in all respects by the laws of the United States of America and the State of Delaware as such laws apply to agreements entered into and to be performed entirely within Delaware by residents of such state.

10.3 Forum and Venue

Each of the Parties hereto irrevocably consents to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of any court within San Francisco County, State of California, in connection with any matter based upon or arising out of this Agreement or the matters contemplated herein, agrees that process may be served upon them in any manner authorized by the laws of the State of California for such persons and waives and covenants not to assert or plead any objection which they might otherwise have to such jurisdiction, venue and such process. Each Party agrees not to commence any legal proceedings related hereto except in such courts.

10.4 Resolution of Conflicts; Arbitration

Any claim or dispute arising out of or related to this Agreement, or the interpretation, making, performance, breach or termination thereof, shall (except as specifically set forth in this Agreement) be finally settled by binding arbitration in the County of San Francisco, California in accordance with the then current Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association and judgment upon the award rendered may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The arbitrator(s) shall have the authority to grant any equitable and legal remedies that would be available in any judicial proceeding instituted to resolve a dispute.

(a) Selection of Arbitrators. Such arbitration shall be conducted by a single arbitrator chosen by mutual agreement of Purchaser and Seller. Alternatively, at the request of either Party before the commencement of arbitration, the arbitration shall be conducted by three independent arbitrators, none of whom shall have any competitive interests with Purchaser or Seller. Purchaser and Seller shall each select one arbitrator. The two arbitrators so selected shall select a third arbitrator.

(b) Discovery. In any arbitration under this Section 10.4, each Party shall be limited to calling a total of three witnesses both for purposes of deposition and the arbitration hearing. Subject to the foregoing limitation on the number of witnesses, the arbitrator or arbitrators, as the case may be, shall set a limited time period and establish procedures designed to reduce the cost and time for discovery while allowing the parties an opportunity, adequate in the sole judgment of the arbitrator or majority of the three arbitrators, as the case may be, to discover relevant information from the opposing parties about the subject matter of the dispute. The arbitrator, or a majority of the three arbitrators, as the case may be, shall rule upon motions to compel or limit discovery and shall have the authority to impose sanctions for discovery abuses, including attorneys’ fees and costs, to the same extent as a competent court of law or equity, should the arbitrators or a majority of the three arbitrators, as the case may be, determine that discovery was sought without substantial justification or that discovery was refused or objected to without substantial justification.

(c) Decision. The decision of the arbitrator or a majority of the three arbitrators, as the case may be, as to the validity and amount of any claim in such Officer’s Certificate shall be final, binding, and conclusive upon the parties to this Agreement. Such decision shall be written and shall be supported by written findings of fact and conclusions which shall set forth the award, judgment, decree or order awarded by the arbitrator(s). Within 30 days of a decision of the arbitrator(s) requiring payment by one party to another, such party shall make the payment to such other party, including any distributions out of the Escrow Fund, as applicable.

(d) Other Relief. The parties to the arbitration may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction or other interim or conservatory relief, as necessary, without breach of this arbitration provision and without abridgement of the powers of the arbitrator(s).

(e) Costs and Expenses. The Parties agree that each Party shall pay its own costs and expenses (including counsel fees) of any such arbitration, and each Party waives its right to seek an order compelling the other Party to pay its portion of its costs and expenses (including counsel fees) for any arbitration.

10.5 Assignment

This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties named herein and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Purchaser may assign all of its assets, licenses and other rights acquired hereunder in their entirety or in part after the Closing. This Agreement may not be assigned by Seller.

10.6 No Third-Party Beneficiaries

This Agreement shall not confer any rights or remedies upon any Person other than the Parties hereto, and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

10.7 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL

EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY AND ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY HERETO IN NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT HEREOF.

10.8 Severability

If, for any reason, a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of this Agreement, or portion thereof, to be invalid or unenforceable, such provision of this Agreement will be enforced to the maximum extent permissible so as to effect the intent of the Parties, and the remainder of this Agreement will continue in full force and effect. The Parties agree to negotiate in good faith an enforceable substitute provision for any unenforceable provision that most nearly achieves the intent and economic effect of the unenforceable provision. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a court of competent jurisdiction determines that any restriction on any license granted herein is invalid or unenforceable, then the license grants to which such restriction relates shall terminate automatically.

10.9 Entire Agreement

This Agreement (including the Schedules and Exhibits hereto) sets forth the entire understanding of the Parties hereto relating to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings between the Parties hereto relating to the subject matter hereof, and is not intended to confer upon any other Person any rights or remedies hereunder.

10.10 Counterparts

This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the Parties and delivered to the other Party, it being understood that all Parties need not sign the same counterpart. Until and unless each Party has received a counterpart hereof signed by the other Party hereto, this Agreement shall have no effect and no Party shall have any right or obligation hereunder (whether by virtue of any other oral or written agreement or other communication). Any signature page delivered electronically or by facsimile (including transmission by Portable Document Format or other fixed image form) shall be binding to the same extent as an original signature page.
