10
(a) provided Purchaser’s claim therefore is instituted by written notice within the time period specified in Section 13.5, any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of Seller contained in this Agreement or in any other Seller Document including, without limitation, any attempt (whether or not successful) by any Person to cause or require Purchaser to pay, perform or discharge any debt, liability or commitment the existence of which constitutes a breach of any such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement;

Such notice shall be a condition precedent to any liability of the Indemnifying Party for indemnification hereunder, but the failure of the Indemnified Party to give prompt notice of a claim shall not adversely affect the Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification hereunder unless the defense of that claim is materially prejudiced by such failure.
11
13.4 Third Party Claims.
(a) Defense by Indemnifying Party. In connection with any claim giving rise to indemnity hereunder resulting from or arising out of any claim or legal proceeding by a Person who is not a party to this Agreement (a “Third Party Claim”), the Indemnifying Party at its sole cost and expense may, upon written notice to the Indemnified Party, assume the defense of any such Third Party Claim (i) if it acknowledges to the Indemnified Party in writing its obligations to indemnify the Indemnified Party with respect to all elements of such Third Party Claim (subject to any limitations on such liability contained in this Agreement) and (ii) if it provides assurances, reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, that it will be financially able to satisfy such Third Party Claim in full if the same is decided adversely. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third Party Claim, it may use counsel of its choice to prosecute such defense, subject to the approval of such counsel by the Indemnified Party, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in (but not control) the defense of any such Third Party Claim, with its counsel and at its own expense. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any such Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall take all steps necessary to pursue the resolution thereof in a prompt and diligent manner. In the event that the Indemnifying Party exercises the right to undertake any such defense against any such Third Party Claim as provided above, the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in such defense and make available to the Indemnifying Party all witnesses, pertinent records, materials and information in the Indemnified Party’s possession or under the Indemnified Party’s control relating thereto as are reasonably required by the Indemnifying Party without cost to the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in such defense and make available to the Indemnifying Party all witnesses, pertinent records, materials and information in the Indemnified Party’s possession or under the Indemnified Party’s control relating thereto as are reasonably required by the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to consent to a settlement of, or the stipulation of any judgment arising from, any such Third Party Claim, with the consent of the Indemnified Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, however, that no such consent shall be required from the Indemnified Party if (i) the Indemnifying Party pays or causes to be paid all Losses arising out of such settlement or judgment concurrently with the effectiveness thereof (as well as all other Losses theretofore incurred by the Indemnified Party which then remain unpaid or unreimbursed), (ii) in the case of a settlement, the settlement is conditioned upon a complete release by the claimant of the Indemnified Party and (iii) such settlement or judgment does not require the encumbrance of any asset of the Indemnified Party or impose any restriction upon its conduct of business.
(b) Defense by Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of any such Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party may defend against such Third Party Claim and settle or compromise the same, after giving notice thereof to the Indemnifying Party, on such terms as the Indemnified Party may deem appropriate, and the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in (but not control) such defense with its own counsel and at its own expense. The Indemnifying Party shall cooperate with the Indemnified Party in such defense and make available to the Indemnified Party, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, all such witnesses, records, materials and information in the Indemnifying Party’s possession or under the Indemnifying Party’s control relating thereto as are reasonably required by the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party thereafter seeks to question the manner in which the Indemnified Party defended such Third Party Claim or the amount or nature of any such settlement, the Indemnifying Party shall have the burden to prove by a preponderance of the evidence that the Indemnified Party did not defend or settle such third-party claim in a reasonably prudent manner. The Indemnified Party shall not settle or compromise any Third Party Claim for which it is entitled to indemnification hereunder, unless suit shall have been instituted against it and the Indemnifying Party shall not have assumed the defense of such suit after notification as provided in Section 13.3.
13.5 Survival of Representations and Covenants of Seller. With the sole exception of those covenants which are to be performed by Seller after the Closing (which shall survive until a claim thereon is barred by the applicable statute of limitations (including extensions and waivers thereof)), each representation, warranty, covenant and agreement of Seller contained herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Closing for a period of one year and shall thereafter terminate and expire on the first anniversary of the Closing Date, unless, on or before such date, Purchaser has delivered to Seller a written notice of a claim with respect to such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement.
12
13.6 Survival of Representations and Covenants of Purchaser. With the sole exception of those covenants which are to be performed by Purchaser after the Closing (which shall survive until a claim thereon is barred by the applicable statute of limitations), each representation, warranty, covenant and agreement of Purchaser contained herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Closing for a period of one year and shall thereafter terminate and expire on the first anniversary of the Closing Date, unless, on or before such date, Seller has delivered to Purchaser a written notice of a claim with respect to such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement.
13.7 Limitations. In no event shall the indemnification obligations of Seller exceed the fair market value of the Shares at the time of the claim. In addition, those obligations shall be subject to reduction for any payments received by an Indemnified Party from any insurer or other third party or the amount of any tax benefits to an Indemnified Party.

(a) Mutual Consent. By the mutual consent in writing of the parties.
(b) Conditions to Purchaser’s Performance Impossible.

14.2 Termination Upon Default. Either party may terminate this Agreement by giving notice to the other on or prior to the Closing Date, without prejudice to any rights or obligations it may have, if (i) after written notice of the default and the passage of (A) ten (10) Days, in the case of a default which is by its nature incapable of being cured, or (B) thirty (30) Days, or such shorter period as may end upon the scheduled Closing Date, in the case of a default which by its nature is capable of being cured, the other party has failed in the due and timely performance of any of its covenants or agreements herein contained or there shall have been a breach of the other’s warranties or representations herein contained, and (ii) such failure or breach could reasonably be expected to give the non-defaulting party grounds not to close pursuant to ARTICLE X or ARTICLE XI, as the case may be. In any such event the party who is not guilty of the breach may, in addition to all of its other rights and remedies, recover all Losses incurred by it from the party responsible for the breach.
13
14.3 Attorneys’ Fees.

As used in this Section 14.3 and elsewhere in this Agreement, “actual attorneys’ fees” or “attorneys’ fees actually incurred” means the full and actual cost of any legal services actually performed in connection with the matter for which such fees are sought calculated on the basis of the usual fees charged by the attorneys performing such services, and shall not be limited to “reasonable attorneys’ fees” as that term may be defined in statutory or decisional authority.
