8.7. Third-Party Claims.

(a)

Promptly after receipt by a Person entitled to indemnity under Section 8.2, 8.3 (to the extent provided in the last sentence of Section 8.3) or 8.4 (an “Indemnified Person”) of notice of the assertion of a Third-Party Claim against it, such Indemnified Person shall give notice to the Person obligated to indemnify under such Section (an “Indemnifying Person”) of the assertion of such Third-Party Claim, provided that the failure to notify the Indemnifying Person will not relieve the Indemnifying Person of any liability that it may have to any Indemnified Person, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Person demonstrates that the defense of such Third-Party Claim is prejudiced by the Indemnified Person’s failure to give such notice.

(b)

If an Indemnified Person gives notice to the Indemnifying Person pursuant to Section 8.7(a) of the assertion of a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Person shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such Third-Party Claim and, to the extent that it wishes (unless (i) the Indemnifying Person is also a Person against whom the Third-Party Claim is made and the Indemnified Person determines in good faith that joint representation would be in appropriate or (ii) the Indemnifying Person fails to provide reasonable assurance to the Indemnified Person of its financial capacity to defend such Third-Party Claim and provide indemnification with respect to such Third-Party Claim), to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim with counsel satisfactory to the Indemnified Person. After notice from the Indemnifying Person to the Indemnified Person of its election to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Person shall not, so long as it diligently conducts such defense, be liable to the Indemnified Person under this Article 8 for any fees of other counsel or any other expenses with respect to the defense of such Third-Party Claim, in each case subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Person in connection with the defense of such Third-Party Claim, other than reasonable costs of investigation. If the Indemnifying Person assumes the defense of a Third-Party Claim, (i) such assumption will conclusively establish for purposes of this Agreement that the claims made in that Third-Party Claim are within the scope of and subject to indemnification, and (ii) no compromise or settlement of such Third-Party Claims may be effected by the Indemnifying Person without the Indemnified Person’s Consent unless (A) there is no finding or admission of any violation of Legal Requirement or any violation of the rights of any Person, (B) the sole relief provided is monetary damages that are paid in full by the Indemnifying Person, and (C) the Indemnified Person shall have no liability with respect to any compromise or settlement of such Third-Party Claims effected without its Consent. If notice is given to an Indemnifying Person of the assertion of any Third-Party Claim and the Indemnifying Person does not, within ten (10) days after the Indemnified Person’s notice is given, give notice to the Indemnified Person of its election to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Person will be bound by any determination made in such Third-Party Claim or any compromise or settlement effected by the Indemnified Person.

(c)

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Indemnified Person determines in good faith that there is a reasonable probability that a Third-Party Claim may adversely affect it or its Affiliate other than as a result of monetary damages for which it would be entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, the Indemnified Person may, by notice to the Indemnifying Person, assume the exclusive right to defend, compromise or settle such Third-Party Claim, but the Indemnifying Person will not be bound by any determination of any Third-Party Claim so defended for the purposes of this Agreement or any compromise or settlement effected without its Consent (which may not be unreasonably withheld).

(d)

With respect to any Third-Party Claim subject to indemnification under this Article 8: (i) both the Indemnified Person and the Indemnifying Person, as the case may be, shall keep the other Person fully informed of the status of such Third-Party Claim and any related Proceedings at all stages thereof where such Person is not represented by its own counsel, and (ii) the parties agree (each at its own expense) to render to each other such assistance as they may reasonably require of each other and to cooperate in good faith with each other in order to ensure the proper and adequate defense of any Third-Party Claim.

(e)

With respect to any Third-Party Claim subject to indemnification under this Article 8, the parties agree to cooperate in such a manner as to preserve in full (to the extent possible) the confidentiality of all Confidential Information and the attorney-client and work-product privileges. In connection therewith, each party agrees that: (i) it will use its best efforts, in respect of any Third-Party Claim in which it has assumed or participated in the defense, to avoid production of Confidential Information (consistent with applicable law and rules of procedure), and (ii) all communications between any party hereto and counsel responsible for or participating in the defense of any Third-Party Claim shall, to the extent possible, be made so as to preserve any applicable attorney-client or work-product privilege.

9.	CONFIDENTIALITY

9.1. Definition of Confidential Information.

(a)

As used in this Article 9, the term “Confidential Information” includes any and all of the following information of the parties hereto that has been or hereafter may be disclosed in any form, whether in writing, orally, electronically or otherwise, or otherwise made available by observation, inspection or otherwise by any party hereto or its Representatives (collectively, a “Disclosing Party”) to any other party hereto or its Representatives (collectively, a “Receiving Party”):

(i)	all information that is a trade secret under applicable trade secret or other law;

(ii)

all information concerning product specifications, data, know-how, formulae, compositions, processes, designs, sketches, photographs, graphs, drawings, samples, inventions and ideas, past, current and planned research and development, current and planned manufacturing or distribution methods and processes, customer lists, current and anticipated customer requirements, price lists, market studies, business plans, computer hardware, Software and computer software and database technologies, systems, structures and architectures;

(iii)

all information concerning the business and affairs of the Disclosing Party (which includes historical and current financial statements, financial projections and budgets, tax returns and accountants’ materials, historical, current and projected sales, capital spending budgets and plans, business plans, strategic plans, marketing and advertising plans, publications, client and customer lists and files, contracts, the names and backgrounds of key personnel and personnel training techniques and materials, however documented), and all information obtained from review of the Disclosing Party’s documents or property or discussions with the Disclosing Party regardless of the form of the communication; and

(iv)	all notes, analyses, compilations, studies, summaries and other material prepared by the Receiving Party to the extent containing or based, in whole or in part, upon any information included in the foregoing.

(b)

Any trade secrets of a Disclosing Party shall also be entitled to all of the protections and benefits under applicable trade secret law and any other applicable law. If any information that a Disclosing Party deems to be a trade secret is found by a court of competent jurisdiction not to be a trade secret for purposes of this Article 9, such information shall still be considered Confidential Information of that Disclosing Party for purposes of this Article 9 to the extent included within the definition. In the case of trade secrets, each party hereto hereby waives any requirement that any other party hereto submit proof of the economic value of any trade secret or post a bond or other security.

9.2. Restricted Use of Confidential Information.

(a)

Each Receiving Party acknowledges the confidential and proprietary nature of the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party and agrees that such Confidential Information (i) shall be kept confidential by the Receiving Party, (ii) shall not be used for any reason or purpose other than to evaluate and consummate the Contemplated Transactions and (iii) without limiting the foregoing, shall not be disclosed by the Receiving Party to any Person, except in each case as otherwise expressly permitted by the terms of this Agreement or with the prior written consent of an authorized representative of Seller or IEA with respect to Confidential Information of Seller or IEA (each, a “Seller Contact”) or an authorized representative of Buyer or Fortco Plastics with respect to Confidential Information of Buyer or Fortco Plastics (each, a “Buyer Contact”). Each of Buyer and Fortco Plastics, on the one hand, and Seller and IEA, on the other hand, shall disclose the Confidential Information of the other only to its Representatives who require such material for the purpose of evaluating the Contemplated Transactions and are informed by Buyer, Fortco Plastics, Seller or IEA, as the case may be, of the obligations of this Article 9 with respect to such information. Each of Buyer, Fortco Plastics, Seller and IEA shall (x) enforce the terms of this Article 9 as to its respective Representatives, (y) take such action to the extent necessary to cause its Representatives to comply with the terms and conditions of this Article 9 and (z) be responsible and liable for any breach of the provisions of this Article 9 by it or its Representatives.

(b)

Unless and until this Agreement is terminated, Seller and IEA shall maintain as confidential any Confidential Information (including for this purpose any information of Seller of the type referred to in Sections 9.1(a)(i), (ii) and (iii), whether or not disclosed to Buyer) of the Seller relating to any of the Assets.

(c)	From and after the Closing, the provisions of Section 9.2(a) above shall not apply to or restrict in any manner Buyer’s use of any Confidential Information of the Seller relating to any of the Assets.

9.3. Exceptions. Sections 9.2(a) and (b) do not apply to that part of the Confidential Information of a Disclosing Party that a Receiving Party demonstrates (a) was, is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a breach of this Article 9 or the Confidentiality Agreement by the Receiving Party or its Representatives, (b) was or is developed by the Receiving Party independently of and without reference to any Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party or (c) was, is or becomes available to the Receiving Party on a nonconfidential basis from a Third Party not bound by a confidentiality agreement or any legal, fiduciary or other obligation restricting disclosure. Seller and IEA shall not disclose any Confidential Information of Seller relating to any of the Assets in reliance on the exceptions in clauses (b) or (c) above.

9.4. Legal Proceedings. If a Receiving Party becomes compelled in any Proceeding or is requested by a Governmental Body having regulatory jurisdiction over the Contemplated Transactions to make any disclosure that is prohibited or otherwise constrained by this Article 9, that Receiving Party shall provide the Disclosing Party with prompt notice of such compulsion or request so that it may seek an appropriate protective order or other appropriate remedy or waive compliance with the provisions of this Article 9. In the absence of a protective order or other remedy, the Receiving Party may disclose that portion (and only that portion) of the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party that, based upon advice of the Receiving Party’s counsel, the Receiving Party is legally compelled to disclose or that has been requested by such Governmental Body, provided, however, that the Receiving Party shall use reasonable efforts to obtain reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded by any Person to whom any Confidential Information is so disclosed. The provisions of this Section 9.4 do not apply to any Proceedings between the parties to this Agreement.

9.5. Return or Destruction of Confidential Information. If this Agreement is terminated, each Receiving Party shall (a) destroy all Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party prepared or generated by the Receiving Party without retaining a copy of any such material, (b) promptly deliver to the Disclosing Party all other Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party, together with all copies thereof, in the possession, custody or control of the Receiving Party with all copies thereof, in the possession, custody or control of the Receiving Party or, alternatively, with the written consent of a Seller Contact or a Buyer Contact (whichever represents the Disclosing Party) destroy all such Confidential Information and (c) certify all such destruction in writing to the Disclosing Party, provided, however, that the Receiving Party may retain a list that contains general descriptions of the information it has returned or destroyed to facilitate the resolution of any controversies after the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information is returned.

9.6. Attorney-Client Privilege. The Disclosing Party is not waiving, and will not be deemed to have waived or diminished, any of its attorney work product protections, attorney-client privileges or similar protections and privileges as a result of disclosing its Confidential Information (including Confidential Information related to pending or threatened litigation) to the Receiving Party, regardless of whether the Disclosing Party has asserted, or is or may be entitled to assert, such privileges and protections. The parties (a) share a common legal and commercial interest in all of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information that is subject to such privileges and protections, (b) are or may become joint defendants in Proceedings to which the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information covered by such protections and privileges relates, (c) intend that such privileges and protections remain intact should either party become subject to any actual or threatened Proceeding to which the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information covered by such protections and privileges relates and (d) intend that after the Closing the Receiving Party shall have the right to assert such protections and privileges. No Receiving Party shall admit, claim or contend, in Proceedings involving either party or otherwise, that any Disclosing Party waived any of its attorney work-product protections, attorney-client privileges or similar protections and privileges with respect to any information, documents or other material not disclosed to a Receiving Party due to the Disclosing Party disclosing its Confidential Information (including Confidential Information related to pending or threatened litigation) to the Receiving Party.

10.4. Enforcement of Agreement. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that they would be irreparably damaged if the provisions of Sections 7.3 and 7.4 of this Agreement are not performed in accordance with their specific terms and that any Breach of Sections 7.3 and 7.4 could not be adequately compensated in all cases by monetary damages alone. Accordingly, in addition to any other right or remedy to which parties hereto may be entitled, at law or in equity, each party hereto shall be entitled to enforce the provisions of Sections 7.3 and 7.4 by a decree of specific performance and to temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive relief to prevent Breaches or threatened Breaches of any of such provisions, without posting any bond or other undertaking.

10.5. Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. The rights and remedies of the parties to this Agreement are cumulative and not alternative. Neither any failure nor any delay by any party in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Agreement or any of the documents referred to in this Agreement will operate as a waiver of such right, power or privilege, and no single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, (a) no claim or right arising out of this Agreement or any of the documents referred to in this Agreement can be discharged by one party, in whole or in part, by a waiver or renunciation of the claim or right unless in writing signed by the other party; (b) no waiver that may be given by a party will be applicable except in the specific instance for which it is given; and (c) no notice to or demand on one party will be deemed to be a waiver of any obligation of that party or of the right of the party giving such notice or demand to take further action without notice or demand as provided in this Agreement or the documents referred to in this Agreement.

10.6. Entire Agreement and Modification. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements, whether written or oral, between the parties with respect to its subject matter (including any letter of intent and any confidentiality agreement between any of the parties hereto) and constitutes (along with Schedules and other documents delivered pursuant to this Agreement) a complete and exclusive statement of the terms of the agreement between the parties with respect to its subject matter. This Agreement may not be amended, supplemented, or otherwise modified except by a written agreement executed by the party to be charged with the amendment.

10.7. Assignments, Successors and No Third-Party Rights. No party may assign any of its rights or delegate any of its obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other parties, except that Buyer and Fortco Plastics may assign any of their rights and delegate any of its obligations under this Agreement to any Subsidiary of Buyer or Fortco Plastics and may collaterally assign their rights hereunder to any financial institution providing financing in connection with the Contemplated Transactions. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will apply to, be binding in all respects upon and inure to the benefit of the successors and permitted assigns of the parties. Nothing expressed or referred to in this Agreement will be construed to give any Person other than the parties to this Agreement any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or with respect to this Agreement or any provision of this Agreement, except such rights as shall inure to a successor or permitted assignee pursuant to this Section 10.7.

10.8. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, the other provisions of this Agreement will remain in full force and effect. Any provision of this Agreement held invalid or unenforceable only in part or degree will remain in full force and effect to the extent not held invalid or unenforceable.

10.9. Construction. The headings of Articles and Sections in this Agreement are provided for convenience only and will not affect its construction or interpretation. All references to “Articles” and “Sections” refer to the corresponding Articles and Sections of this Agreement.

10.10. Time of Essence. With regard to all dates and time periods set forth or referred to in this Agreement, time is of the essence.

(a)

THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO AGREEMENTS MADE AND TO BE PERFORMED IN THAT STATE, WITHOUT REGARD TO ANY OF ITS PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAWS OR OTHER LAWS WHICH WOULD RESULT IN THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION.

(b)

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the breach thereof or the Contemplated Transactions, shall be resolved by binding arbitration in accordance with Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association and administered by the American Arbitration Association. A judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any federal or state court having jurisdiction thereof. Any party hereto may, without inconsistency with this Agreement, seek from a court any interim or provisional relief that may be necessary to protect the rights or property of that Party, pending the establishment of the arbitral tribunal (or pending the arbitral tribunal’s determination of the merits of the controversy). Any arbitration commenced by either Party shall be held in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. All aspects of the arbitration shall be treated as, and kept, confidential. Neither the parties hereto nor the arbitrator may disclose the existence, content, or results of the arbitration to any person or entity other than the parties thereto, except as necessary to comply with legal or regulatory requirements or to enforce an award.

10.12. Drafting History. In resolving any dispute or construing any provision in the Agreement, there shall be no presumption made or inference drawn (a) because the attorneys for one of the parties drafted such provision of the Agreement, (b) because of the drafting history of the Agreement, or (c) because of the inclusion of a provision not contained in a prior draft or the deletion of a provision contained in a prior draft. The parties acknowledge and agree that this Agreement was negotiated and drafted with each party being represented by counsel of its choice and with each party having an equal opportunity to participate in the drafting of the provisions hereof.
