In the event and for so long as Buyer or Seller is actively contesting or defending against any action, suit, proceeding, hearing, investigation, charge, complaint, claim, or demand in connection with (i) any transaction contemplated under this Agreement, or (ii) any fact, situation, circumstance, status, condition, activity, practice, plan, occurrence, event, incident, action, failure to act, or transaction on or prior to the Closing Date involving the Buyer or the Company, Buyer and Seller will cooperate in the contest or defense, make available their personnel, and provide such testimony and access to their books and records as shall be necessary in connection with the contest or defense, all at the sole cost and expense of the contesting or defending party.

 

6.5 Tax Covenants.

 

(a) Tax Indemnification. Buyer shall indemnify the Company and Seller, and hold them harmless from and against, without duplication, any loss, claim, liability, expense, or other damage attributable to (i) all Taxes (or the non-payment thereof) of Buyer for all Taxable Periods ending on or before the Closing Date ("Pre-Closing Tax Periods") and the portion of all Taxable Periods that includes (but does not end on) the Closing Date (such period a "Straddle Period") to the extent such Taxes are allocable to the portion of such period occurring on or before the Closing Date, and (ii) all Taxes of any member of an affiliated, consolidated, combined or unitary group of which the Buyer (or any predecessor of any of the foregoing) is or was a member on or prior to the Closing Date, including pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-6 or any analogous or similar state, local, or foreign law or regulation, which are attributable to the Pre-Closing Tax Period (all such Taxes listed in this sentence being "Pre-Closing Taxes"). In the case of any Straddle Period, the amount of any Pre-Closing Taxes (i) based on or measured by income, receipts, or payroll of the Buyer shall be determined based on an interim closing of the books as of the close of business on the Closing Date, and (ii) the amount of other Pre-Closing Taxes of the Buyer shall be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire Straddle Period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the total number of days in such Straddle Period.

 

(b) Tax Returns. Buyer shall duly prepare, or cause to be prepared, and timely file, or cause to be timely filed, solely at Buyer's expense, all Tax Returns required to be filed by the Buyer for any Pre-Closing Tax Period ("Pre-Closing Tax Returns"). All Pre-Closing Tax Returns shall be prepared in accordance with historic practices of the Buyer, to the extent permitted by applicable Law. To the extent permitted by applicable Law, the Seller shall include any income, gain, loss, deduction or other Tax items for any Pre-Closing Tax Period on their Tax Returns in a manner consistent with the schedules furnished by the Buyer to Seller for such periods. Buyer shall be solely liable for any and all late filing fees, interest or penalties incurred as a result of the late filing of any Pre-Closing Tax Return. Buyer shall permit Seller to review and comment on each Pre-Closing Tax Return prior to filing and shall make such revisions to such Pre-Closing Tax Returns as are reasonably requested by Seller. Buyer shall duly prepare, or cause to be prepared, and timely file, or cause to be timely filed, all Tax Returns required to be filed by the Buyer for any Straddle Period ("Straddle Tax Return") and for any Taxable Period beginning after the Closing Date (a "Post-Closing Tax Period" and such returns "Post-Closing Tax Returns"). The cost of preparing all Straddle Tax Returns and Post-Closing Tax Returns shall be borne by the Buyer. Buyer shall permit Seller to review and comment on each Straddle Tax Return prior to filing.

 

25

  

(c) Cooperation on Tax Matters. Buyer and Seller shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other party, in connection with Tax matters (including, without limitation, any Audit) involving the Buyer. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the other party's request) the provision of records and information which are reasonably relevant to such Audit. Buyer shall not dispose of any records relating to Taxes paid or payable by the Buyer and which are attributable to Pre-Closing Tax Periods prior to the later of six (6) months after the expiration of the applicable limitations period on assessment with respect to any such Taxes, or the final resolution of all Audits or litigation initiated prior to the expiration of the applicable limitations period.

 

(d) Audits. With respect to Audits relating to Pre-Closing Tax Periods (a "Pre-Closing Audit") the Seller shall control (at the Buyers' sole cost and expense) all proceedings and may take any action (or decline to take any action) with respect to any Pre-Closing Audit in the sole discretion of the Seller, provided that any such action (or inaction) does not increase the Tax liability of the Buyer for any Straddle Period or any Post-Closing Tax Period. In the event that such action or inaction would increase the Tax liability of the Buyer for any Straddle Period or any Post-Closing Tax Period, then no such action or inaction may be implemented or effectuated without the prior written consent of Seller (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Buyer shall furnish Seller with the usual form of power of attorney (Form 2848 or similar state or local form) and provide to Seller such records and information as may be necessary for Seller to control any Pre-Closing Audit proceeding.

 

(e) Section 338(h)(10) Election. Seller shall join with Buyer in making an election under Section 338(h)(10) of the Code (and any corresponding election under any other comparable provision of applicable Tax Law) with respect to the purchase and sale of the Stock hereunder ("338(h)(10) Election"). Seller shall include any income, gain, loss, deduction, or other Tax item resulting from the 338(h)(10) Election on their Tax Returns to the extent required by applicable Tax Law.

 

(f) Transfer Taxes. All transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other such Taxes and fees (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with this Agreement shall be paid by Buyer when due, and Buyer shall, at its own expense, file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to all such transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other Taxes and fees, and, if required by applicable Law, Buyer shall, and shall cause its affiliates to, join in the execution of any such Tax Returns and other documentation.

 

(g) Status. Prior to the Closing Date, Buyer shall maintain its respective classification under the Code and applicable Tax Law as an association taxable as a corporation and shall not take or allow any action that would change the tax classification of Buyer.

 

26

  

6.6 Confidentiality Obligations.

 

(a) Except as necessary for the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, each party hereto shall keep confidential any materials and information that are obtained from the other party in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, except to the extent that such materials or information have become or become publicly available; are or become readily available to the industry; have been obtained from independent sources; were known to such party on a non-confidential basis prior to disclosure to such party by the other party; or are required to be disclosed to or by order of a governmental agency or a court of law or otherwise required by law to be disclosed. In the event that this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 9.1, each party will return to the other party all documents, work papers and other written material obtained by it in connection with the transaction contemplated hereby, and Buyer shall not use any of the information and or documents that it has obtained or developed from the Seller during its due diligence to compete with the Seller.

 

(b) Buyer expressly acknowledges that the covenants contained in Section 6.6, are integral to the sale by Seller of the Stock and that without the protection of such covenants, Seller would not have entered into this Agreement, that the consideration received by Seller bears no relationship to the damages Seller may suffer in the event of any breach of any of the covenants of Section 6.6. If this Section 6.6 shall nevertheless for any reason be held to be excessively broad, it shall be enforceable to the extent compatible with applicable Laws that shall then apply. Buyer hereby further acknowledges that money damages will be impossible to calculate and may not adequately compensate Seller in connection with an actual or threatened breach by it of the provisions of this Section 6.6. Accordingly, Buyer hereby expressly waives all rights to raise the adequacy of Seller's remedies at law as a defense if Seller seeks to enforce by injunction or other equitable relief the due and proper performance and observance of the provisions of this Section 6.6. In addition, Seller shall be entitled to pursue any other available remedies at law or equity, including the recovery of money damages, in respect of the actual or threatened breach of the provisions of this Section 6.6.

 

(c) Buyer hereby expressly waives any right to assert inadequacy of consideration as a defense to enforcement of the confidentiality covenants in this Section 6.6 should such enforcement ever become necessary.

 

6.7 No Debt Payments in Cash. To the extent that Buyer has to issue a debt instrument ("Buyer Debt") in order to obtain funding to be able to pay the Closing Date Cash Payment, all payments required to be made in accordance with the Buyer Debt must only be made with Common Stock of the Buyer, and not with cash or cash equivalents.

 

6.8 David C. Langle Salary. Mr. Langle shall remain as the interim Chief Financial Officer of Buyer for a period of at least three months from Closing, at a salary to be agreed to between him and Buyer. At Closing, Mr. Langle shall accept an amount not to exceed $10,000, in the aggregate, for any accrued, but unpaid salary due to Mr. Langle prior to Closing.

 

27

  

6.9 Sands Consults. SCS, LLC shall be due a cash fee of $50,000, payable by Buyer at Closing. The Buyer shall secure the $50,000 cash fee referenced in this Section 6.9 by obtaining financing from the Buyer's existing investors and/or lenders. In addition to the cash fee referenced herein, Buyer shall, at Closing, issue to SCS, LLC a warrant to purchase a number of shares of Common Stock of Buyer equal to 2.99% of the issued and outstanding Common Stock of Buyer on the Closing Date. Such warrant shall have a three-year term, an exercise price of $0.01, and provide for the ability to exercise such warrant on a cashless basis during the entire term of the warrant.

ARTICLE IX

TERMINATION

 

9.1 Termination. This Agreement may be terminated by Seller or Buyer, if the terminating party is not then in breach of any material obligation under this Agreement (provided that Section 6.66 will continue in full force and effect), on written notice to the other at any time prior to Closing as follows:

 

(a) by mutual consent of Buyer and the Seller;

 

(b) by Buyer, if there has been a material misrepresentation, material breach of warranty or material breach of a covenant by the Seller (or by the Company in the case of a covenant by the Seller to cause the Company to take or refrain from taking an action) set forth in this Agreement, the Related Documents or the Schedules and Exhibits hereto, which has not been cured or waived within five (5) business days after written notification thereof by Buyer to the Seller;

 

31

  

(c) by the Seller, if there has been a material misrepresentation, material breach of warranty or material breach of a covenant by Buyer set forth in this Agreement, the Related Documents, or the Schedules and Exhibits hereto, which has not been cured or waived within five (5) business days after written notification thereof by the Seller to Buyer;

 

(d) by either Buyer or the Seller by notice to the other party if the Closing shall not have been consummated on or before [ ], 2015 (the "Final Termination Date"), unless extended by written agreement of Buyer and the Seller.

 

9.2 Effect of Termination. In the event of termination of this Agreement as provided in Section 9.1, this Agreement shall forthwith become of no further force and effect, except that the covenants and agreements set forth in Sections 6.1, 6.6, 9.2, 9.3 and 11.9 shall survive such termination indefinitely, and except that nothing in Section 9.1 or this Section 9.2 shall be deemed to release any party from any liability for any breach by such party of the terms and provisions of this Agreement or to impair the right of any party to compel specific performance by another party of its obligations under this Agreement.

 

9.3 Specific Performance. The parties recognize that in the event the Buyer should refuse to perform under the provisions of this Agreement, monetary damages alone will not be adequate. Seller shall therefore be entitled, in addition to any other remedies which may be available, including money damages, to obtain specific performance of the terms of this Agreement. In the event of any action to enforce this Agreement specifically, the Buyer hereby waives the defense that there is an adequate remedy at law.

 

ARTICLE X

SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES AND INDEMNIFICATION

 

10.1 Survival. All representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or in any Related Document delivered pursuant hereto shall survive the Closing and shall be fully effective and enforceable for a period of two (2) yearsfollowing the Closing Date (unless a different period is specifically assigned thereto in this Agreement), but shall thereafter be of no further force or effect, except as they relate to claims for indemnification timely made pursuant to this Article X; provided, however, that the representations and warranties contained in Section 3.1 ("No Violation; Authorization"), Section 3.4 ("Capitalization"), Section 3.13 ("Employee Plans; ERISA"), Section 3.16 ("Taxes") and Section 3.22 ("Environmental Claims") shall survive until 90 days after the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations period. Any claim for indemnification asserted in writing before the two year anniversary of the Closing Date or the other applicable survival period set forth in this Section 10.1 shall survive until resolved or judicially determined.

 

32

  

10.2 Indemnification.

 

(a) Indemnification by Seller. Subject to the limitations and the provisions set forth in this Agreement, Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless Buyer from and against any and all loss, damage, expense (including court costs, amounts paid in settlement, judgments, reasonable attorneys' fees or other expenses for investigating and defending), suit, action, claim, liability or obligation (collectively, "Damages") related to, caused by or arising from: (i) any misrepresentation or breach of any representation or warranty contained herein or in any Related Document by the Company or Seller; (ii) the failure to fulfill any covenant or agreement contained herein or in any Related Document by the Company or Seller; (iii) third party claims arising in breach of contract, breach of warranty, product liability, unfair competition, personal or other injury, tort or infringement of property rights of others or other third party claims, in each case which claim is with respect to any and all activities of the Company, Seller or any Affiliate thereof in connection with the conduct of the Business on or prior to the Closing Date; and (iv) any and all actions, suits, proceedings, claims, demands, assessments, judgments, costs and expenses, including reasonable legal fees, in enforcing this indemnity against the Seller.

 

(b) Indemnification by Buyer. Subject to the limitations and provisions set forth in this Agreement, Buyer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Seller against any Damages related to, caused by or arising from: (i) any misrepresentation, breach of any representation or warranty, or failure to fulfill any covenant or agreement contained herein or in any Related Document by Buyer; (ii) any and all liabilities and obligations of the Company, or arising out of or related to the ownership of the Assets after the Closing Date; (iii) third party claims arising in breach of contract, breach of warranty, product liability, unfair competition, personal or other injury, tort or infringement of property rights of others or other third party claims, in each case which claim is with respect to any and all activities of the Company, Buyer or any Affiliate thereof in connection with the conduct of the Business after the Closing Date; and (iv) any and all actions, suits, proceedings, claims, demands, assessments, judgments, costs and expenses, including reasonable legal fees, in enforcing this indemnity against Buyer.

 

(c) Tax Damages. The calculation of, and the liability for, Damages related to Taxes shall be governed solely by Section 6.5 and Sections 10.2, 10.3, 10.4, 10.5 and 10.6, but only to the extent such latter sections are not inconsistent with specific provisions of Section 6.5.

 

10.3 Notice of Claims. Any party seeking indemnification shall give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of the facts and circumstances giving rise to the claim (the "Notice") for which such indemnified party intends to assert a right to indemnification under this Agreement ("Claims"). Failure to give Notice shall not relieve any indemnifying party of any obligations which the indemnifying party may have to the indemnified party under this Article X, except to the extent that such failure has prejudiced the indemnifying party under the provisions for indemnification contained in this Agreement. The indemnifying party shall reimburse an indemnified party promptly after delivery of a Notice certifying that the indemnified party has incurred Damages after compliance with the terms of this Article X; provided, however, the party receiving the Notice shall have the option to contest any such Damages or its obligations to indemnify therefor in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, at such party's own cost and expense. Such option shall be exercised by the giving of notice by the exercising party to the other party within twenty (20) days of receipt of a Notice. If the parties do not agree upon the amount of Damages, the party seeking indemnification may seek appropriate legal remedy in accordance with this Agreement.

 

33

  

10.4 Limitations on Indemnification Obligation. The Seller shall not be liable for indemnification to Buyer under Sections 10.2(a)(i), and Buyer shall not be liable for indemnification to the Seller under Section 10.2(b)(i), under this Agreement until the aggregate amount of all Claims of Buyer or the Seller under Sections 10.2(a)(i) or 10.2(b)(i), as the case may be, exceeds Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000) (the "Threshold Amount"), at which time Buyer or the Seller, as the case may be, shall be entitled to recover the aggregate amount of all Claims, including the Threshold Amount. Buyer shall provide the Seller, and the Seller shall provide Buyer, with Notice of all Claims included in the Threshold Amount. The maximum liability of Buyer or the Seller under this Agreement for indemnification obligations under Sections 10.2(a)(i) or 10.2(b)(i), as the case may be, shall not exceed the Purchase Price (such maximum liability amount, the "Cap"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Threshold Amount and the Cap shall not apply: (i) in the event of fraud or willful misrepresentation by the indemnifying party; or (ii) to indemnification obligations for Damages in connection with (x) a breach of the representations and warranties contained in Sections 3.1 3.1 ("No Violation; Authorization"), 3.4 ("Capitalization"), 3.13 ("Employee Plans; ERISA"), 3.16 ("Taxes") and Section 3.22 ("Environmental Claims") or (y) a breach of any covenants of the Company or the Seller, including, without limitation, 6.55 ("Tax Covenants") and 6.7 ("Confidentiality Obligations"). For the sole purpose of calculating the amount of monetary damages that Buyer may be entitled to under this Article X (as opposed to determining if there has been a breach of a representation or warranty), the representations and warranties of the Company and the Seller shall not be deemed qualified by any references to materiality, Material Adverse Effect or Knowledge. All indemnification payments under Section 10.2 shall be deemed adjustments to the Purchase Price.

 

10.5 Assumption and Defense of Third-Party Action. If any Claim by Buyer or the Seller hereunder arises out of a claim by a third party (a "Third-Party Claim"), the indemnifying party shall have the right, at its own expense and upon written notice to the indemnified party of its intent to do so within twenty (20) days of the Notice, to participate in or assume control of the defense of the Third-Party Claim, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, and to settle or compromise any such Third-Party Claim; provided, however, that such settlement or compromise shall be effected only with the consent of the indemnified party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The indemnified party shall have the right to employ counsel to represent it if, in its reasonable judgment, it is advisable for it to be represented by separate counsel, and in that event the fees and expenses of such separate counsel shall be paid by the indemnified party. The indemnified party shall have the right to control the defense of any Third-Party Claim, notwithstanding the indemnifying party's election to control the defense, if it notifies the indemnifying party that it is assuming the defense of such Claim and that the indemnifying party is relieved of its obligations to the claimant with respect to such Third-Party Claim and to the indemnified party, whereupon the indemnifying party shall be relieved of its obligations under this Article X with respect to such Third-Party Claim. Except as provided in the preceding sentences, if the indemnifying party does not elect to assume control of the defense of any Third-Party Claim, the indemnifying party shall be bound by the results obtained by the indemnified party with respect to such Third-Party Claim. The indemnifying party agrees to render such assistance as may reasonably be requested in order to insure the proper and adequate defense of any Third-Party Claim. It is expressly agreed and understood that any defense by the indemnifying party of any Third-Party Claims affecting or involving the Business shall not be conducted in a manner which adversely affects or impairs the value or usefulness of the Business, the Assets or the Stock.

 

10.6 Remedies Exclusive. The remedies provided in Section 10.2, subject to the limitations set forth in this Article X, and except for the remedy of specific performance where otherwise set forth in this Agreement, shall be the exclusive remedy available for any breach of a representation, warranty, covenant, or other agreement contained in this Agreement; provided, however, that nothing herein shall limit the rights of the parties to seek any remedy based upon fraud or criminal misconduct.

This Agreement shall not be amended, supplemented or modified except by an agreement in writing which makes specific reference to this Agreement or an agreement delivered pursuant hereto, as the case may be, and which is signed by the party against which enforce-ment of any such amendment, supplement or modification is sought.

 

11.8 Severability. If in any jurisdiction any provision of this Agreement or its application to any party or circumstance is restricted, prohibited or held unenforceable, such provision shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective only to the extent of the restriction, prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof and without affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction or its application to other parties or circumstances. In addition, if any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall for any reason in any jurisdiction be held excessively broad as to time, duration, geographical scope, activity or subject, it shall be construed, by limiting and reducing it, so as to be enforceable to the extent compatible with the applicable Law of such jurisdiction as it shall then appear.

 

11.9 Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction.

 

(a) The parties acknowledge and agree that this Agreement constitutes a contract pertaining to a transaction covering in the aggregate not less than $1,000,000 and that their choice of law and choice of jurisdiction specified below have been made pursuant to and in accordance with Sections 5-1401 and 5-1402, respectively, of the New York General Obligations Law. Accordingly, the parties acknowledge and agree that this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York, as to all matters including matters of validity, construction, effect, performance and liability, without consideration of conflicts of laws provisions contained therein, and any New York State or Federal Court sitting in New York County shall have exclusive jurisdiction of all disputes with respect to an alleged breach of any representation, warranty, agreement or covenant of this Agreement, including, but not limited to, any dispute relating to the construction or interpretation of the rights and obligations of any party.

(b) The parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State or Federal court sitting in New York County in any action or proceeding commenced by the other party or to which such party is a party arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any Related Document or any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby. The parties hereby irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent they may effectively do so under applicable Law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding. The parties also irrevocably and unconditionally consent to the service of any and all process in any such action or proceeding by the mailing of copies of such process by overnight courier to such party and its counsel at their respective addresses specified in Section 11.1. The parties further irrevocably and unconditionally agree that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding (after exhaustion of all appeals or expiration of the time for appeal) shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.

 

11.10 Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is solely for the benefit of the parties hereto and no provision of this Agreement shall be deemed to confer upon third parties, either express or implied, any remedy, claim, liability, reimbursement, cause of action or other right.

 

11.11 Further Assurances and Consents. From time to time after the Closing Date, without further consideration, the Seller and Buyer shall use reasonable efforts, to cooperate with the other party or parties to obtain any necessary third party consents or approvals to the assignment to Buyer of any contracts, leases, licenses and permits included in the Assets.
