Limitation on Indemnification Obligations.  The Parties’ indemnification obligations pursuant to the provisions of this paragraph 7 are subject to the following limitations:

 

7.2.1.

7.3.

Other Remedies.  The remedies provided by this paragraph 7 are in addition to, and not in lieu of, such other remedies as may be available under applicable laws.  Without limitation, the Buyer and Sellers are entitled to enforce this Agreement by specific enforcement without the necessity of demonstrating inadequacy of damages or irreparable harm.

 



2



 


7.4.

Payment.  Claims for indemnification involving the payment of money will be paid within ninety (90) calendar days after written notification thereof.  Claims for indemnification involving amounts due to third parties will be promptly paid when due, subject to the right to contest the same in good faith.  Unpaid claims will incur interest at a floating rate of interest equal to the prime rate published from time to time in The Wall Street Journal.

 

8.

Termination.  This Agreement may be terminated if an event of default under paragraph 9 below occurs which remains uncured after the curative period has expired.  In the event of termination, written notice thereof will be given to the other Party or Parties specifying the provision pursuant to which such termination is made.  Termination of this Agreement shall not relieve either Party of its liabilities accruing up to the time of termination and shall not prejudice the right of either Party to recover all monies then due, to enforce this Agreement, and to seek all remedies and damages, at law or in equity, under applicable law.


 

9.

Default.  If a Party fails to perform any obligation contained in this Agreement, the Party claiming default will serve written notice to the other Party specifying the nature of such default and demanding performance.  If such default shall continue for more than ten (10) calendar days after notice from the non-breaching Party, then the non-breaching Party may, at its option, terminate this Agreement by notice to that effect, but if that default cannot reasonably be cured within that cure period and a diligent effort has been commenced by the breaching Party within that cure period which is diligently prosecuted to completion, no default shall be deemed to exist; provided, however, if no cure has occurred,  the non-breaching Party will be entitled to exercise all remedies arising at law or in equity by reason of such default, including, without limitation, specific performance of this Agreement or any one or more of the provisions herein contained since money damages at law may not be an adequate remedy for a Party’s violation of this Agreement.


10.

Miscellaneous.  It is further agreed as follows:

 

10.1.

Time.  Time is of the essence of this Agreement.

 

10.2.
