9.2           Indemnification.

(a)           The Seller agrees to indemnify Dutch Gold, its officers, directors, affiliates and stockholders (“the “Dutch Gold Group) and the Purchaser, its officers, directors, affiliates and stockholders (the “Purchaser Group”) and hold them harmless from and against any loss, liability, deficiency, damage or expense (including, without limitation, legal expenses and costs and including interest and penalties, but excluding punitive damages (other than punitive damages awarded to third parties) and lost profits resulting from business interruptions) (a “Loss”) which the Purchaser Group and/or Dutch Gold Group may suffer, sustain or become subject to, as a result of (i) the breach by the Seller of any representation or warranty made by the Seller contained in this Agreement, any schedule or exhibit hereto or any certificate delivered by or on behalf of the Seller to the Purchaser or Dutch Gold in connection with the Closing, (ii) the breach by the Seller of any covenant or agreement made by the Seller contained in this Agreement, any schedule or exhibit hereto or any certificate delivered by or on behalf of the Seller to Purchaser or Dutch Gold in connection with the Closing, (iii) any claims of any brokers or finders claiming by, through or under Seller or in respect of the transactions contemplated herein, (iv) any Taxes of the Seller with respect to any taxable periods (or portions thereof) ending on or prior to the Closing Date.  The Seller shall be responsible for paying the Seller’s Pro Rata Share of any Losses suffered or sustained by any member of the Purchaser Group and/or Dutch Gold Group.

(b)           The Seller will be liable to the Purchaser Group and Dutch Gold Group with respect to claims referred to in Section 9.2(a)(i) above only if Purchaser or Dutch Gold, as the case may be, delivers to the Seller Representative written notice thereof no later than the date which is eighteen months after the Closing Date.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the foregoing limitation shall not apply in the event of any breach of a representation and warranty by or on behalf of the Seller that constitutes fraud or intentional misrepresentation.

(c)           The Purchaser agrees to indemnify the Seller and hold Seller harmless from and against any Loss which the Seller may suffer, sustain or become subject to, as the result of (i) a breach of any representation nor warranty made by the Purchaser contained in this Agreement, any schedule or exhibit hereto or any certificate delivered by or on behalf of the Purchaser in connection with the Closing and (ii) a breach of any covenant or agreement made by Purchaser contained in this Agreement, any schedule or exhibit hereto or any certificate delivered by or on behalf of Purchaser.

(d)           Dutch Gold agrees to indemnify the Seller and hold Seller harmless from and against any Loss which the Seller may suffer, sustain or become subject to, as the result of (i) a breach of any representation nor warranty made by Dutch Gold contained in this Agreement, any schedule or exhibit hereto or any certificate delivered by or on behalf of Dutch Gold in connection with the Closing and (ii) a breach of any covenant or agreement made by Dutch Gold contained in this Agreement, any schedule or exhibit hereto or any certificate delivered by or on behalf of Purchase

(e)           If a party hereto seeks indemnification under this Section 9.2, such party (the “Indemnified Party”) shall give written notice to the other party (the “Indemnifying Party”) of the facts and circumstances giving rise to the claim. In that regard, if any suit, action, claim, liability or obligation shall be brought or asserted by any third party which, if adversely determined, would entitle the Indemnified Party to indemnity pursuant to this Section 9.2, the Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Indemnifying Party of the same in writing, specifying in reasonable detail the basis of such claim and the facts pertaining thereto and the Indemnifying Party, if it so elects (except that the Indemnifying Party may not so elect without the Indemnified Party’s consent unless (i) the Indemnifying Party acknowledges in writing its obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party for the entire amount of any Loss relating thereto (without deduction, offset or limitation by operation of any provision hereof), (ii) the Indemnifying Party provides reasonable evidence to the Indemnified Party of its financial ability to satisfy its indemnification obligations, (iii) the suit, action, claim, liability or obligation does not seek to impose any liability or obligation upon the Indemnified Party other than for money damages, and (iv) such suit, action, claim, liability or obligation does not relate to the Indemnified Party’s relationship with its customers, suppliers or employees) shall assume and control the defense thereof (and shall consult with the Indemnified Party with respect thereto), including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and the payment of expenses. If the Indemnifying Party elects to assume and control the defense, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ counsel separate from counsel employed by the Indemnifying Party in any such action and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel employed by the Indemnified Party shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party unless (y) the employment thereof has been specifically authorized by the Indemnifying Party in writing or (z) the Indemnifying Party has failed to assume the defense and employ counsel. The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any action or proceeding, the defense of which it has elected to assume, which settlement is effected without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party. If there shall be a settlement to which the Indemnifying Party consents or a final judgment for the plaintiff in any action or proceeding, the Indemnifying Party shall indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnified Party from and against loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment in accordance with this Section.

(e)           Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 9.2, in the event that a party is finally determined to be entitled to indemnification for any Losses pursuant to this Section 9.2, then such Indemnified Party may, at its option, setoff all or any portion of such Losses against any amounts due or to become due to the Indemnifying Party, whether pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise.

(f)           The amount of Losses for which the Indemnifying Party may be liable under this Section 9.2 shall be the net amount of the Losses suffered by the Indemnified Party after deducting any proceeds actually received by the Indemnified Party in respect of such Losses under applicable insurance policies (determined, without duplication, after giving effect to any increases in premiums resulting therefrom) or from any other third Person responsible therefor. To the extent any such proceeds are received by the Indemnified Party with respect to a particular indemnified Loss after any such indemnity payment is made by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party with respect thereto, the Indemnified Party shall reimburse the Indemnifying Party when and as such proceeds are received with respect to such particular indemnified Loss.

(g)           The amount of any Loss for which indemnification is provided under this Section 9.2 shall be net of any Tax benefits of the Indemnified Party arising directly from such matter for which an indemnity claim was made, but only as and when realized in cash by the Indemnified Party and only if such benefits are actually realized by such Indemnified Party on or before the first anniversary of the date on which the Indemnified Party makes the claim for indemnification in respect of such Loss.

9.3           Arbitration. Waiver of Jury Trial.    Any dispute among any of the Parties arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, shall be settled by arbitration under the Rules of the American Arbitration Association for Commercial Disputes and shall be placed on an expedited or fast track basis.  The number of arbitrators shall be one (1) if all parties to the dispute agree on the arbitrator.  If there is a disagreement on selection of a sole arbitrator, the number of arbitrators then shall be three (3), with the arbitrators to be appointed in accordance with the Rules from a panel of arbitrators in New York, New York.  The place of arbitration shall be in New York, New York, and each Party hereby irrevocably agree to submit to and not contest personal jurisdiction.  The arbitral award shall state the reasons for the award, and attorneys’ fees shall be awarded to the prevailing party as determined by the arbitrator(s).  Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof, and shall be binding on the parties hereto.  Each Party irrevocably waives to the extent permitted by law, all rights to trial by jury and all rights to immunity by sovereignty or otherwise in any action, proceeding or counterclaim arising out of or relating to this Agreement.
