(c)       Copy of Audit.  As promptly as practicable following its completion, the Buyer shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Parent a copy of the Audit.
 
Section 1.5           Purchase Price Allocation.  The Purchase Price shall be allocated in a manner set forth on Section 1.5 of the Disclosure Schedule.  In connection with the determination of such schedule, the parties shall cooperate with each other and provide such information as any of them shall reasonably request.

(i)        any material or intentional inaccuracy or breach of a representation or warranty of the Sellers contained herein as of the date hereof or as of the Closing Date;

26
 
138358.00102/7150960v.7
 
 

 

Indemnified Party in any Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel, and the Indemnifying Party shall agree to and bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel, if the use of counsel chosen by the Indemnifying Party to represent the Indemnified Party would present such counsel with a conflict of interest.  The Indemnifying Party shall have ten (10) days from the receipt of the Notice of Claim to notify the Indemnified Party whether or not it desires to defend such Third Party Claim failing which the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have waived such option. The party assuming defense of a Third Party Claim is hereinafter referred to as the “Controlling Party” and the other party as the “Co-Party”.
 
(ii)        In defending the Third Party Claim, the Controlling Party shall take all steps reasonably necessary in the defense or settlement of such Third Party Claim. The Co-Party shall take such actions as reasonably necessary to cooperate with the Controlling Party and its counsel in defending such Third Party Claim.  The Controlling Party shall keep the Co-Party reasonably informed of the development of the underlying claim.  The Controlling Party shall allow the Co-Party a reasonable opportunity to participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim with its own counsel and at its own expense.
 
(iii)       The Controlling Party shall be authorized to consent to a settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any Third Party Claim, without the consent of the Co-Party, provided that the Controlling Party shall (x) pay or cause to be paid all amounts arising out of such settlement or judgment concurrently with the effectiveness of such settlement, (y) not encumber any of the material assets of an Indemnified Party or agree to any restriction or condition that would apply to or adversely affect any Indemnified Party or the conduct of any Indemnified Party’s business and (z) obtain, as a condition of any settlement or other resolution, a complete release of any Indemnified Party potentially affected by such Third Party Claim.
 
(d)       Other Claims.  In the event the Indemnifying Party receives a notice of a claim for indemnity from the Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 6.2(a) or Section 6.2(b) that does not involve a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall notify the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) days following its receipt of such notice if the Indemnifying Party disputes its liability to the Indemnified Party under this Article VI.  If the Indemnifying Party does not so notify the Indemnified Party, the claim specified by the Indemnified Party in such notice shall be conclusively deemed to be a liability of the Indemnifying Party under this Article VI, and the Indemnifying Party shall pay the amount of such liability to the applicable Indemnified Party on demand or, in the case of any notice in which the amount of the claim (or any portion of the claim) is estimated, on such later date when the amount of such claim (or such portion of such claim) becomes finally determined.  If the Indemnifying Party has timely disputed its liability with respect to such claim as provided above, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall negotiate in good faith resolution of the disputed claim(s) for a period of not less than twenty (20) Business Days after the response is provided.  If the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party are unable to resolve any such claim(s) within such time period, the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to pursue any legal remedies available to the Indemnified
 

27
 
138358.00102/7150960v.7
 
 

 

Party against the Indemnifying Party with respect to the unresolved claim(s), subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
 
(e)       Right of Set-off. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event that any Buyer Indemnitee has any claim under this Agreement for which it is entitled to indemnification as set forth in this Section 6.2, and such indemnification claim is not paid as and when required by this Agreement, and there is a final, nonappealable judgment requiring such indemnification payment, the Buyer shall have the right, in addition to the other rights it has under this Agreement, but not the obligation, in its sole and absolute discretion, to set-off or net the amount of such indemnification claim against any cash payment due to Parent in connection with an adjustment to the Equity Payment pursuant to Section 1.4(b).
 
(f)        Limitation on Liability.
 
(i)        No amount shall be payable for Losses by the Sellers to any Buyer Indemnitee under this Article VI unless and until the aggregate amount of actual Losses otherwise payable by the Sellers under this Article exceeds $25,000 (the “Indemnification Basket”). Once the amount of the Indemnification Basket has been exceeded, the Buyer Indemnitee shall be entitled to seek relief the entire amount of all claims including the amount of the claims that is below the Indemnification Basket.
 
(ii)       In no event shall any party have any liability to the other (including under this Section 6.2) for any consequential, special, incidental, or indirect damages or similar items, including diminution of value or loss of business reputation or opportunity relating to a breach or alleged breach hereof (other than consequential, special, incidental, indirect damages or similar items awarded to a third party pursuant to a Third Party Claim); provided that such limitation with respect to lost profits shall not limit either party’s right to recover contract damages in connection with the other party’s failure to close in violation of this Agreement.
 
(g)       Tax Treatment of Payments.  To the extent permitted by law, payments made under this Article VI shall be treated as adjustments to the Purchase Price.
 
(h)       Mitigation.  Nothing in this Agreement shall in any way restrict or limit the general obligation at Law of an Indemnified Party to mitigate any Loss which it may suffer or incur by reason of the breach by an Indemnifying Party of any representation, warranty or covenant of the Indemnifying Party hereunder.
 
(i)        Waiver of Bulk Sales Compliance.  The Buyer and the Sellers hereby waive compliance with the bulk sales Laws of any applicable jurisdiction, and the Sellers shall indemnify and hold harmless Buyer from and against any claims arising out of or due to the failure to comply with such bulk sales Laws.

Annex A

Audit Material Deviation Methodology

For purposes of determining whether there is a material deviation from what is shown in the Financial Statements, the Auditors shall (i) only consider changes or differences in balances from what is shown in the Financial Statements to the extent such are related to the Purchased Assets and Assumed Liabilities, and (ii) adhere to the guidelines as to materiality in planning and performing an audit as required by GAAP and as set forth below.

 
Consideration of Materiality in Planning and Performing an Audit
 
Effective Date: For audits of fiscal years beginning on or after Dec. 15, 2010
 
INTRODUCTION
 
1.       This standard establishes requirements regarding the auditor's consideration of materiality in planning and performing an audit.1/
 
Materiality in the Context of an Audit
 
2.       In interpreting the federal securities laws, the Supreme Court of the United States has held that a fact is material if there is "a substantial likelihood that the …fact would have been viewed by the reasonable investor as having significantly altered the 'total mix' of information made available."2/ As the Supreme Court has noted, determinations of materiality require "delicate assessments of the inferences a 'reasonable shareholder' would draw from a given set of facts and the significance of those inferences to him …."3/
 
3.       To obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, the auditor should plan and perform audit procedures to detect misstatements that, individually or in combination with other misstatements, would result in material misstatement of the financial statements. This includes being alert while planning and performing audit procedures for misstatements that could be material due to quantitative or qualitative factors. Also, the evaluation of uncorrected misstatements in accordance with Auditing Standard No. 14, Evaluating Audit Results, requires consideration of both qualitative and quantitative factors.4/ However, it ordinarily is not practical to design audit procedures to detect misstatements that are material based solely on qualitative factors.
 
4.       For integrated audits, Auditing Standard No. 5, An Audit of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting That Is Integrated with An Audit of Financial Statements, states, "In planning the audit of internal control over financial reporting, the auditor should use the same materiality considerations he or she would use in planning the audit of the company's annual financial statements."5/
 

OBJECTIVE
 

5.       The objective of the auditor is to apply the concept of materiality appropriately in planning and performing audit procedures.

CONSIDERING MATERIALITY IN PLANNING AND PERFORMING AN AUDIT
 

Establishing a Materiality Level for the Financial Statements as a Whole
 
6.       To plan the nature, timing, and extent of audit procedures, the auditor should establish a materiality level for the financial statements as a whole that is appropriate in light of the particular circumstances. This includes consideration of the company's earnings and other relevant factors. To determine the nature, timing, and extent of audit procedures, the materiality level for the financial statements as a whole needs to be expressed as a specified amount.
 
Note:  If financial statements for the audit period are not available, the auditor may establish an initial materiality level based on estimated or preliminary financial statement amounts. In those situations, the auditor should take into account the effects of known or expected changes in the company's financial statements, including significant transactions or adjustments that are expected to be reflected in the financial statements at the end of the period.
 
Establishing Materiality Levels for Particular Accounts or Disclosures
 
7.       The auditor should evaluate whether, in light of the particular circumstances, there are certain accounts or disclosures for which there is a substantial likelihood that misstatements of lesser amounts than the materiality level established for the financial statements as a whole would influence the judgment of a reasonable investor. If so, the auditor should establish separate materiality levels for those accounts or disclosures to plan the nature, timing, and extent of audit procedures for those accounts or disclosures.
 
Note:  Lesser amounts of misstatements could influence the judgment of a reasonable investor because of qualitative factors, e.g., because of the sensitivity of circumstances surrounding misstatements, such as conflicts of interest in related party transactions.
 
Determining Tolerable Misstatement
 
8.       The auditor should determine the amount or amounts of tolerable misstatement for purposes of assessing risks of material misstatement and planning and performing audit procedures at the account or disclosure level. The auditor should determine tolerable misstatement at an amount or amounts that reduce to an appropriately low level the probability that the total of uncorrected and undetected misstatements would result in material misstatement of the financial statements. Accordingly, tolerable misstatement should be less than the materiality level for the financial statements as a whole and, if applicable, the materiality level or levels for particular accounts or disclosures.
 
9.       In determining tolerable misstatement and planning and performing audit procedures, the auditor should take into account the nature, cause (if known), and amount of misstatements that were accumulated in audits of the financial statements of prior periods.
 
Considerations for Multi-location Engagements
 
10.      For purposes of the audit of the consolidated financial statements of a company with multiple locations or business units, the auditor should determine tolerable misstatement for the individual locations or business units at an amount that reduces to an appropriately low level the probability that the total of uncorrected and undetected misstatements would result in material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, tolerable

misstatement at an individual location should be less than the materiality level for the financial statements as a whole.
 

CONSIDERATIONS AS THE AUDIT PROGRESSES
 

11.      The auditor should reevaluate the established materiality level or levels and tolerable misstatement when, because of changes in the particular circumstances or additional information that comes to the auditor's attention, there is a substantial likelihood that misstatements of amounts that differ significantly from the materiality level or levels that were established initially would influence the judgment of a reasonable investor. Situations in which changes in circumstances or additional information that comes to the auditor's attention would require such reevaluation include:
 
 
a.      
The materiality level or levels and tolerable misstatement were established initially based on estimated or preliminary financial statement amounts that differ significantly from actual amounts.
 
b.      
Events or changes in conditions occurring after the materiality level or levels and tolerable misstatement were established initially are likely to affect investors' perceptions about the company's financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
 
Note: Examples of such events or changes in conditions include (1) changes in laws, regulations, or the applicable financial reporting framework that affect investors' expectations about the measurement or disclosure of certain items and (2) significant new contractual arrangements that draw attention to a particular aspect of a company's business that is separately disclosed in the financial statements.
 
 
12.      If the auditor's reevaluation results in a lower amount for the materiality level or levels or tolerable misstatement than initially established by the auditor, the auditor should (1) evaluate the effect, if any, of the lower amount or amounts on his or her risk assessments and audit procedures and (2) modify the nature, timing, and extent of audit procedures as necessary to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence.
 
 
Note:  The reevaluation of the materiality level or levels and tolerable misstatement is also relevant to the auditor's evaluation of uncorrected misstatements in accordance with Auditing Standard No. 14.6/
