(c) Two hundred twenty five thousand and No/100ths U.S. Dollars ($225,000.00) shall be paid on September 30, 2015, subject to the following.

Purchaser shall have thirty (30) days following the Closing to reconfirm with Seller such value, and if the parties agree that the value is greater than originally calculated, Purchaser shall pay the difference to Seller, and if the parties agree that the value is less than originally calculated, Seller shall pay the difference to Purchaser. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the amount of the Inventory Payment shall not exceed, after deduction of Purchaser prepayments made prior to the Closing Date, seven hundred thousand and No/100ths U.S. Dollars ($700,000.00)

1.5 Liabilities.

If the Defending Party disputes its liability with respect to any such claim, the indemnifying party and the Claiming Party will proceed to negotiate a resolution of such dispute and, if not resolved through negotiations, such dispute will, subject to the terms of this Agreement, be resolved by litigation in an appropriate court of competent jurisdiction. The Claiming Party will have the burden of proof in establishing the amount of Losses suffered by it.

(e) Third Party Claims. Any Person making a claim for indemnification under this ARTICLE V (an “Indemnitee”) shall notify the indemnifying party (an “Indemnitor”) of the claim in writing promptly after receiving written notice of any action, lawsuit, proceeding, investigation or other claim (a “Proceeding”) against it (if by a third party), describing the claim, the amount thereof (if known and quantifiable) and the basis thereof; provided, however, that the failure to so notify an Indemnitor shall not relieve the Indemnitor of its obligations hereunder unless and to the extent the Indemnitor shall be actually prejudiced by such failure to so notify. Any Indemnitor shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such Proceeding giving rise to an Indemnitee’s claim for indemnification at such Indemnitor’s expense, and at its option (subject to the limitations set forth below) shall be entitled to assume the defense thereof by appointing a reputable counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee to be the lead counsel in connection with such defense; provided, further, that:

(i) the Indemnitee shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such claim and to employ counsel of its choice for such purpose; provided, that the fees and expenses of such separate counsel shall be borne by the Indemnitee (other than any fees and expenses of such separate counsel that are incurred prior to the date the Indemnitor effectively assumes control of such defense which, notwithstanding the foregoing, shall be borne by the Indemnitor subject to the limitations set forth herein);

(ii) the Indemnitor shall not be entitled to assume control of such defense if (A) the claim for indemnification relates to or arises in connection with any criminal proceeding, action, indictment, allegation or investigation; (B) the Indemnitee reasonably believes an adverse determination with respect to the Proceeding giving rise to such claim for indemnification would be materially detrimental to or injure the Indemnitee’s reputation or future business prospects; (C) the claim seeks an injunction or equitable relief against the Indemnitee; or (D) the Indemnitor failed or is failing to vigorously prosecute or defend such claim; and

(iii) if the Indemnitor shall control the defense of any such claim, the Indemnitor shall obtain the prior written consent of the Indemnitee, which such prior written consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, before entering into any settlement of a Proceeding or ceasing to defend such Proceeding if, pursuant to or as a result of such settlement or cessation, injunctive or other equitable relief will be imposed against the Indemnitee or if such settlement does not expressly and unconditionally release the Indemnitee from all liabilities and obligations with respect to such claim, without prejudice.

(f) Purchase Price Adjustment Treatment. All indemnification payments made pursuant to this ARTICLE V shall be treated as adjustments to the Purchase Price for all purposes and the parties agree to file their Tax Returns accordingly.

Each of the parties hereto agrees as follows with respect to the period following the Closing.

6.1 General. In case at any time after the Closing any further action is necessary to carry out the purposes of this Agreement, each of the parties will take such further action (including the execution and delivery of such further instruments and documents) as any other party reasonably may request, all at the sole cost and expense of the requesting party (unless the requesting party is entitled to indemnification therefore under ARTICLE V).

6.2 Confidentiality. Seller will treat and hold as such all of the Confidential Information. In the event that Seller is requested or required (by oral question or request for information or documents in any legal proceeding, interrogatory, subpoena, civil investigative demand or similar process) to disclose any Confidential Information, Seller will notify Purchaser promptly of the request or requirement so that Purchaser may seek an appropriate protective order or waive compliance with the provisions of this Section 8.2. If, in the absence of a protective order or the receipt of a waiver hereunder, Seller is compelled to disclose any Confidential Information to any tribunal or else stand liable for contempt, Seller may disclose the Confidential Information to the tribunal. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each party to this Agreement (and each employee, representative, and other agent of such party) may disclose to any and all Persons, without limitation of any kind, the Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby for tax reporting, legal advice and other similar purposes.

7.1 Termination. This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing:

(i) Purchaser is not then in material Breach of any provision of this Agreement and there has been a material Breach, inaccuracy in or failure to perform any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by Seller pursuant to this Agreement that would give rise to the failure of any of the conditions specified in Section 2.2 and such material Breach, inaccuracy or failure has not been cured by Seller within ten (10) days of Seller’s receipt of written notice of such Breach from Purchaser; or

(ii) any of the conditions set forth in Sections 2.1 or 2.2 shall not have been, or if it becomes apparent that any of such conditions will not be, fulfilled by Closing, unless such failure shall be due to the failure of Purchaser to perform or comply with any of the covenants, agreements or conditions hereof to be performed or complied with by it prior to the Closing;

(i) Seller is not then in material Breach of any provision of this Agreement and there has been a material Breach, inaccuracy in or failure to perform any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement that would give rise to the failure of any of the conditions specified in Section 2.3 and such material Breach, inaccuracy or failure has not been cured by Purchaser within ten (10) days of Purchaser’s receipt of written notice of such Breach from Seller; or

(ii) any of the conditions set forth in Sections 2.1 or 2.3 shall not have been, or if it becomes apparent that any of such conditions will not be, fulfilled by Closing, unless such failure shall be due to the failure of Seller to perform or comply with any of the covenants, agreements or conditions hereof to be performed or complied with by it prior to the Closing; or

(d) by Purchaser or Seller in the event that (i) there shall be any Law that makes consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement illegal or otherwise prohibited or (ii) any Government Entity shall have issued a Governmental Order restraining or enjoining the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and such Governmental Order shall have become final and non-appealable.

7.2 Effect of Termination. In the event of the termination of this Agreement in accordance with this Article, this Agreement shall forthwith become void and there shall be no liability on the part of any party hereto except:

(b) that nothing herein shall relieve any party hereto from liability for any willful Breach of any provision hereof.
