(a) At the Closing, the Company shall sell, transfer, convey, deliver and assign to the Buyer and the Buyer shall purchase, accept and assume all of the Assets (other than the Excluded Assets) of the Company, free and clear of any and all Liens, and exclusive of any and all Excluded Liabilities, including, without limitation, the Existing and Prior Liabilities of the Company (collectively, the “Acquired Assets”).

(b) The Company is not selling and the Buyer is not purchasing pursuant to this Agreement, and the Acquired Assets shall not include, the Assets specifically listed on Schedule 1.01(b) (collectively, the “Excluded Assets”). The Excluded Assets shall include, without limitation, any Benefit Plan that is not an Assumed Benefit Plan and any assets that are set aside in trust or otherwise, or insurance policies or other funding vehicles to be used, for the purpose of paying any liabilities relating to any such Benefit Plan that is not an Assumed Benefit Plan, and any license or other rights granted by any governmental agency that is not transferable.

The Assigned Contracts shall include, without limitation, any contracts or similar arrangements with vendors and other providers relating to any Assumed Benefit Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing the Buyer shall not accept and assume the contracts set forth on Schedule 1.01(c).

(d) At the Closing, the Parent on behalf of the Buyer shall pay the Purchase Price referred to in Section 1.03 (subject to the following sentence, Section 1.02, Section 1.03(c) and Section 1.09) to the Company or its designee, as specified in writing by the Seller Group to the Parent at least two (2) business days prior to the Closing. No less than three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing, the Seller Group shall provide to the Parent the payoff amounts and wire transfer instructions for all secured parties of the Company who have Liens on the Acquired Assets or the Assigned Contracts, and the Parent on behalf of the Buyer shall make payments from the Cash Amount (as defined below) to such lenders such that all the Liens on the Acquired Assets and the Assigned Contracts are released at the Closing.

Section 1.02. Liabilities. At the Closing, the Buyer shall assume, and agree to pay, perform and discharge all liabilities of the Company other than Excluded Liabilities, including, without limitation, the Existing and Prior Liabilities, of the Company (collectively, the “Assumed Liabilities”). The Assumed Liabilities shall include, without limitation, any liabilities relating to any Assumed Benefit Plan but only to the extent such liabilities (x) arise out of or relate to facts, circumstances and conditions existing solely during the period after the Closing or to the extent arising out of any actions or omissions of Buyer after the Closing or (y) arise out of or relate to facts, circumstances and conditions existing solely during the period before the Closing and are satisfied by any assets that are set aside in trust or otherwise, or insurance policies or other funding vehicles to be used, for the purpose of paying any such liabilities relating to any such Assumed Benefit Plan and included within the Acquired Assets. Without modifying the limited scope of the foregoing, the Buyer shall not be assuming, and the Company shall remain responsible for and shall promptly pay, perform and discharge, at the Closing (or in the case of the liabilities on Schedule 2.11(d), when due), any and all Existing and Prior Liabilities and all of the liabilities of the Company set forth on Schedule 1.02(a) and Schedule 2.11(d) (collectively, the “Excluded Liabilities”), such that the Buyer will incur no liability or Loss in connection therewith. The Excluded Liabilities shall include, without limitation, any liabilities relating to (i) any Benefit Plan that is not an Assumed Benefit Plan and (ii) any Assumed Benefit Plan to the extent such liabilities (x) arise out of or relate to facts, circumstances and conditions existing as of or prior to the Closing or otherwise to the extent arising out of any actions or omissions of the Seller Group and (y) are not satisfied by any assets that are set aside in trust or otherwise, or insurance policies or other funding vehicles to be used, for the purpose of paying any liabilities relating to any such Assumed Benefit Plan and included within the Acquired Assets. The Company shall be fully responsible for, and, upon the terms and subject to all of the conditions contained herein, at the Closing, the Company shall ratify and confirm its retention of, and agreement to pay, perform and discharge, and to indemnify the Buyer and the Buyer Indemnitees and hold the Buyer and the Buyer Indemnitees harmless from and against, all of the Existing and Prior Liabilities of the Company in accordance with Article 7 hereof. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Assumed Liabilities shall include all obligations of the Company assumed pursuant to Section 1.01(c), and all current liabilities of the Company reflected in the calculation of Working Capital, as provided in Section 1.04, and such liabilities shall not be Excluded Liabilities or Existing and Prior Liabilities. At the Closing, the Parent on behalf of the Buyer shall make payments from the Cash Amount to pay off, in full, the liabilities of the Company set forth on Schedule 1.02(a).

Section 1.03. Purchase Price. The aggregate purchase price (the “Purchase Price”) for the Acquired Assets payable by Buyer and Parent, including the Assigned Contracts, shall be equal to $13,000,000, consisting of the following:

(a) $4,600,000 (the “Cash Amount”), payable at the Closing via wire transfer of immediately available funds. The Cash Amount payable to the Company shall be reduced by: (i) any payments made in connection with the release of the Liens outstanding as of the Closing pursuant to Section 1.01(d), (ii) any payments made in connection with the payoff of liabilities outstanding as of the Closing pursuant to Schedule 1.02(a), (iii) any Initial Working Capital Adjustment (as defined below) (if less than $0), and (iv) the amount by which the cash portion of the Acquired Assets is less than the Minimum Cash Amount.

(b) $1,900,000 (the “Escrow Amount”), deposited at the Closing via wire transfer of immediately available funds with ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo Bank, National Association, a national banking association organized under the laws of the United States, as escrow agent (the “Escrow Agent”), to be held by the Escrow Agent for no less than eighteen (18) months after the Closing Date (subject to and to the extent there are no pending claims thereunder); provided, that a portion of the Escrow Amount equal to the outstanding Accounts Receivable relating to retentions shall not be released from escrow until such Accounts Receivable relating to retentions have either been paid to Buyer in accordance with their terms or offset against the Escrow Amount if not paid to Buyer in accordance with their terms, in each case, pursuant to the terms and conditions of an Escrow Agreement, dated as of even date herewith, among the Escrow Agent, the Parent, and the Seller Group, in the form set forth on Exhibit 1.03(b). In the event that such Accounts Receivable relating to retentions are paid to Buyer subsequent to the eighteen (18) month anniversary after the Closing Date, then such amount shall promptly thereafter be released from escrow to the Seller Group. The Escrow Amount shall be subject to any claims for indemnification that Buyer asserts pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or (at the election of Parent) for offset by the Parent for the adjustments set forth in Sections 1.04(c) and 1.05. If Buyer shall receive a Tax Clearance Certificate after the Closing which sets forth an amount of Sale Withholding Tax, upon presentation of the Tax Clearance Certificate to escrow agent, escrow agent shall pay such Sale Withholding Tax out of the Escrow Amount; provided that following such payment, the Seller Group shall have the right to dispute any Sale Withholding Tax with the applicable taxing authority and retain any amounts recovered from such authority;

(d) The assumption of the Assumed Liabilities.

Section 1.04. Working Capital Adjustment.

(a) The Company shall deliver to the Buyer at Closing the Minimum Working Capital and the Minimum Cash Amount. Ten (10) Business Days prior to the Closing, the Company shall deliver to the Parent a statement, reasonably acceptable to the Parent, dated as of the Closing Date (the “Initial Statement”) of its calculation of the difference between: (i) Working Capital (the “Initial Working Capital”) and (ii) the Minimum Working Capital (such difference, the “Initial Working Capital Adjustment”). In addition, the Company shall deliver to the Parent a statement setting forth evidence of the Minimum Cash Amount being transferred to the Buyer as part of the Acquired Assets. At the Closing, the Cash Amount shall be reduced by (1) the amount of the Initial Working Capital Adjustment (if less than $0) and (2) the amount, if any, that the cash portion of the Acquired Assets is less than the Minimum Cash Amount. In the event that the Cash Amount is reduced because the cash portion of the Acquired Assets is less than the Minimum Cash Amount, then the Company shall be entitled to reimbursement of such reduction to the extent that the Parent or Buyer has collected Accounts Receivable after the Closing Date with such reimbursement (if any) occurring on the date of the Parent or Buyer has collected A/R Payment in good clear funds. The adjustments described in this subsection are subject to further adjustment pursuant to the Final Working Capital Adjustment and the additional adjustments described in Section 1.05 and Section 1.06.

(b) Within one hundred twenty (120) days after the Closing Date, the Parent shall prepare and deliver to the Stockholders a statement (the “Post Closing Statement”) setting forth its calculation of (1) the difference between: (i) the Working Capital (the “Post Closing Working Capital”); and (ii) the Minimum Working Capital (such difference, the “Post Closing Working Capital Adjustment” and as finally determined pursuant to Section 1.04(e), if applicable, the “Final Working Capital Adjustment”), and (2) the Minimum Cash Amount. If an adjustment is not made pursuant to Section 1.04(e), then the Post Closing Working Capital Adjustment shall be the “Final Working Capital Adjustment.” In determining the Post Closing Working Capital, the Post Closing Statement shall also contain the calculations by the Parent of the additional adjustments, if any, made pursuant to Section 1.05 and Section 1.06. The provisions set forth in this Section 1.04 shall be applicable to such calculations.

(c) The Cash Amount shall be increased or decreased by the amount of the difference between the Initial Working Capital Adjustment (if any) and the Final Working Capital Adjustment so that the actual Cash Amount received by the Company under this Agreement reflects the Final Working Capital Adjustment. If the Final Working Capital Adjustment is less than $0, the Seller Group shall within ten (10) days after the Post Closing Statement becomes final and binding on the parties, make payment to the Parent (at the sole election of the Parent) by wire transfer in immediately available funds of the difference between the amount of the Initial Working Capital Adjustment and the Final Working Capital Adjustment or offset such amount against the Escrow Amount. If the Final Working Capital Adjustment is greater than $0, then the Parent shall make payment to the Company in immediately available funds the amount of the Final Working Capital Adjustment up to the amount deducted from the Cash Amount at Closing pursuant to Section 1.03(a)(iii) above (it being understood and agreed that if no amount was deducted from the Cash Amount at Closing pursuant to Section 1.03(a)(iii), no payment will be made by Parent to the Company).

(d) The Working Capital, the Initial Statement, the Initial Working Capital Adjustment, the Post Closing Working Capital Adjustment, the Post Closing Statement, the Final Working Capital Adjustment, the Minimum Cash Amount, the Indebtedness of the Company, the additional adjustments, if any, set forth in Section 1.05, and all financial calculations made under this Agreement shall be calculated in accordance with GAAP and in the same manner and using the same methods used in determining the amount of each of such items which compose such values as set forth on the balance sheet of the Company, dated December 31, 2017, a copy of which is attached hereto as Schedule 1.04(d).

(e) During the 30-day period following the Stockholders’ receipt of the Post Closing Statement (the “Review Period”), the Stockholders shall have the right to review all relevant documents relating to preparation of the Post Closing Statement. Subject to extension to the extent that the Stockholders are not provided the right to review as set forth in the prior sentence, the Post Closing Statement shall become final and binding upon the parties at 5:00 p.m. EST on the 30^th day following the Stockholders’ receipt of the Post Closing Statement unless the Stockholders give written notice of their disagreement with the Post Closing Statement to the Parent prior to such time (a “Notice of Disagreement”). Any Notice of Disagreement shall specify in reasonable detail the nature of any disagreement so asserted. If a Notice of Disagreement is received by the Parent in a timely manner, then the Post Closing Statement (as it may be revised in accordance with this sentence) shall become final and binding upon the Parent and the Stockholders on the earlier of: (A) the date the Parent and the Stockholders resolve in writing any differences they have with respect to the matters specified in the Notice of Disagreement, and (B) the date any disputed matters are finally resolved in writing by the Accounting Firm (as defined below). During the 30-day period following the Review Period, the Parent and the Stockholders shall meet to resolve any differences that they may have with respect to the matters specified in the Notice of Disagreement. During such period, the Parent and its auditors shall have access to the working papers of the Company and the Stockholders and their auditors (or other advisors) prepared in connection with the Notice of Disagreement. Unless resolved prior thereto, at the end of such 30-day period, the Parent and the Stockholders shall submit to an independent accounting firm (the “Accounting Firm”) for arbitration any and all matters that remain in dispute. The Accounting Firm shall be a firm with no business ties to any of the Stockholders, the Company or the Parent, or any of their Affiliates, within the past three (3) years, and shall be mutually agreed to and selected by the Stockholders and the Parent. The Parent and the Stockholders agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Accounting Firm to render a decision resolving the matters within thirty (30) days after submission of such matters to the Accounting Firm. Judgment may be entered upon the determination of the Accounting Firm in any court having jurisdiction over the party against which such determination is to be enforced. The Stockholders and the Parent shall jointly instruct the Accounting Firm that it (A) shall act as an expert and not as an arbitrator, (B) shall review only the matters that were properly included in the Notice of Disagreement, (C) shall make its determination based upon the terms and conditions set forth in this subsection and within the range of (1) the amount of the Post Closing Working Capital Adjustment set forth in the Post Closing Statement and (2) the amount of the Working Capital Adjustment set forth in the Notice of Disagreement and (D) shall render its decision within 30 days after the referral of the dispute to the Accounting Firm for a decision pursuant hereto. The determination by the Accounting Firm shall be final, binding and conclusive on the parties hereto. The fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be borne equally by the Stockholders and the Parent; provided, however, that each of the Seller Group and the Parent shall be responsible for and shall bear all of their own respective costs and expenses incurred by them in connection with the proceedings before the Accounting Firm. The fees and disbursements of the Parent and its independent auditors (or other advisors) incurred in connection with their preparation of the Post Closing Statement, their review of any Notice of Disagreement, and their preparation of any materials submitted to, and in support of their position before the Accounting Firm shall be borne by the Parent, and the fees and disbursements of the Stockholders and the Company and their independent auditors or other advisors incurred in connection with their review of the Post Closing Statement, their preparation of any Notice of Disagreement and their preparation of any materials submitted to, and in support of their position before the Accounting Firm shall be borne by the Stockholders.

(f) The scope of the disputes to be resolved by the Accounting Firm shall be limited to whether the Initial Working Capital Adjustment, the Post Closing Working Capital Adjustment, the Final Working Capital Adjustment, and the additional adjustments, if any, set forth in Section 1.05 and Section 1.06, were calculated in accordance with the provisions of this Section 1.04, and whether there were mathematical errors in such calculations and the Accounting Firm shall not make any other determination.

Section 1.05. Additional Adjustments.

(a) Inventory. In the event that it is ultimately determined in accordance with the procedures and timing set forth in Section 1.04 that the Inventory of the Company at Closing consists of (i) equipment inventory over twelve (12) months old, (ii) parts and supplies inventory greater than five (5) years old, (iii) damaged inventory, or (iv) used inventory that in the reasonable discretion of the Parent is not in sellable condition (other than inventory items written-off on the Initial Statement), then the Working Capital shall be decreased by the value of such items, net of all applicable reserves set forth in the Closing Balance Sheet with respect to such amounts, in determining the Post Closing Working Capital pursuant to Section 1.04(b).

(b) Cash. In the event that it is ultimately determined in accordance with the procedures and timing set forth in Section 1.04 that the cash portion of the Acquired Assets is less than the Minimum Cash Amount, then the Working Capital shall be decreased by the amount of such deficiency (to the extent it was not already adjusted for such deficiency at the Closing) in determining the Post Closing Working Capital pursuant to Section 1.04(b). The Company shall be entitled to reimbursement of such reduction to Working Capital to the extent that the Parent has collected in good clear funds Accounts Receivable from the Closing Date through the one hundred twentieth (120^th) day after the Closing Date (the “A/R Payment”).

(c) Illustration. For purposes of clarification, the effect of the Initial Working Capital Adjustment, Final Working Capital Adjustment, and the excess or shortfall of the Minimum Cash Amount is illustrated on Schedule 1.05(c).

(d) Year-End Bonuses and 401(k) Contributions. The Company agrees to bear its pro rata share of the cost (based on the number of days from January 1, 2018 until the Closing Date as a percentage of three hundred sixty-five (365)), including, without limitation, any applicable taxes and costs, of any 2018 annual bonuses, commissions, or contributions to Company’s 401(k) plan, if any, made with respect to the 2018 calendar year, but only to the extent that the Company has committed to pay any such annual bonus, commission or contribution, and such amount is payable after the Closing. Schedule 1.05(d) sets forth the annual bonuses, commissions or contributions that the Company has committed to pay but, as of the date hereof, has not paid, which schedule shall be updated by the Seller Group from the date hereof through the Closing. The Company’s pro rata share of any such amounts shall be accounted for in the Post Closing Statement in determining the Post Closing Working Capital pursuant to Section 1.04(b) taking into account payments made by the Company prior to Closing and all accruals made for such amounts as of the Closing.

Section 1.06. Collection of Accounts Receivable.

If any covenant contained in this Section 4.09 shall be determined by any court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable by reason of its extending for too great a period of time or over too great a geographical area or by reason of its being too extensive in any other respect, (x) such covenant shall be interpreted to extend over the maximum period of time for which it may be enforceable and/or over the maximum geographical area as to which it may be enforceable and/or to the maximum extent in all other respects as to which it may be enforceable, all as determined by such court or other tribunal making such determination, and (y) in its reduced form, such covenant shall then be enforceable, but such reduced form of covenant shall only apply with respect to the operation of such covenant in the particular jurisdiction in or for which such adjudication is made. It is the intention of the parties that the provisions of this Section 4.09 shall be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law.

(e) Each member of the Seller Group acknowledges that any breach or threatened breach of the covenants contained in this Section 4.09 will likely cause the Parent material and irreparable damage, the exact amount of which will be difficult to ascertain, and that the remedies at Law for any such breach will likely be inadequate. Accordingly, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, the Parent shall, in addition to all other available rights and remedies (including, but not limited to, seeking such damages as it can show it has sustained by reason of such breach), be entitled to seek specific performance and injunctive relief in respect of any breach or threatened breach of this covenant, without being required to post bond or other security and without having to prove the inadequacy of the available remedies at Law.

(f) The obligations of the Company and the Stockholders under this Section 4.09 are joint and several.

If any covenant contained in this Section 4.10 shall be determined by any court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable by reason of its extending for too great a period of time or over too great a geographical area or by reason of its being too extensive in any other respect, (x) such covenant shall be interpreted to extend over the maximum period of time for which it may be enforceable and/or over the maximum geographical area as to which it may be enforceable and/or to the maximum extent in all other respects as to which it may be enforceable, all as determined by such court or other tribunal making such determination, and (y) in its reduced form, such covenant shall then be enforceable, but such reduced form of covenant shall only apply with respect to the operation of such covenant in the particular jurisdiction in or for which such adjudication is made. It is the intention of the parties that the provisions of this Section 4.10 shall be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law.

(c) Each member of the Seller Group acknowledges that any breach or threatened breach of the covenants contained in this Section 4.10 will likely cause the Parent material and irreparable damage, the exact amount of which will be difficult to ascertain, and that the remedies at Law for any such breach will likely be inadequate. Accordingly, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, the Parent shall, in addition to all other available rights and remedies (including, but not limited to, seeking such damages as it can show it has sustained by reason of such breach), be entitled to seek specific performance and injunctive relief in respect of any breach or threatened breach of this covenant, without being required to post bond or other security and without having to prove the inadequacy of the available remedies at Law.

(i) any breach of any representation or warranty made by any member of the Seller Group contained in this Agreement or in respect of any claim made based upon alleged facts that if true could constitute any such breach;

(ii) the Seller Group’s breach of any covenant, obligation or other agreement required to be performed or complied with by the Seller Group contained in this Agreement;

Therefore, if any fact, event or circumstance that results in a Loss for which a Parent Indemnitee is entitled to seek indemnification hereunder may be considered to be described by both item (i) and item (iii) of Section 7.02(a), then, for purposes of determining the amount of the Seller Group’s indemnification obligations with respect to such fact, event or circumstance, such fact, event or circumstance shall be deemed to arise under item (iii) of Section 7.02(a).

(iii) third, to the extent the Seller Group’s indemnification obligations are not fully satisfied in accordance with clause (ii), by the Seller Group paying the Parent such amounts in cash in the form of a bank or cashier’s check or in immediately available funds by wire transfer to such bank account or accounts as may be designated by the Parent.

Section 7.05. Method of Asserting Claims. All claims for indemnification by any Indemnified Party shall be asserted and resolved as follows:

(a) In the event any claim or demand is asserted against or sought to be collected from such Indemnified Party by a Person other than a party hereto (a “Third Party Claim”), the Indemnified Party shall deliver a Claim Notice with reasonable promptness to the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnified Party fails to provide the Claim Notice with reasonable promptness after the Indemnified Party receives notice of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall not be obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third Party Claim to the extent that the Indemnifying Party’s ability to defend has been prejudiced by such failure of the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall notify the Indemnified Party as soon as practicable within the Dispute Period whether the Indemnifying Party disputes its liability to the Indemnified Party under Section 7.02 or Section 7.03, as the case may be, and whether the Indemnifying Party desires, at its sole cost and expense, to defend the Indemnified Party against such Third Party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party pursuant to the preceding sentence that the Indemnifying Party desires to defend the Indemnified Party against the Third Party Claim, then the Indemnifying Party shall provide reasonable assurance of the Indemnifying Party’s ability to pay the Third Party Claim. Anything to the contrary in this Article 7 notwithstanding (including this Section 7.05), the Parent shall retain the right to control in all respects any Action, matter or other proceeding relating to Taxes, regardless of whether the Seller Group is obligated to indemnify the Parent with respect to such Action, matter or other proceeding.

(b) If the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party within the Dispute Period that the Indemnifying Party desires to defend the Indemnified Party with respect to the Third Party Claim pursuant to this Section 7.05, and provides the reasonable assurance described in the penultimate sentence of Section 7.05(a), then the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to defend, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, such Third Party Claim by all appropriate proceedings, which proceedings shall be vigorously and diligently prosecuted by the Indemnifying Party to a final conclusion or shall be settled at the discretion of the Indemnifying Party; provided however, that an Indemnifying Party may not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, settle any Third Party Claim unless (i) such settlement includes an unconditional release of the Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such claim, (ii) does not contain any admission or statement suggesting any wrongdoing or liability on behalf of the Indemnified Party and (iii) does not contain any equitable order, judgment or term which in any manner affects, restrains or interferes with the business of the Indemnified Party or any of the Indemnified Party’s Affiliates. The Indemnifying Party shall have full control of such defense and proceedings; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party may, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnified Party, at any time prior to the Indemnifying Party’s delivery of the notice referred to in the first sentence of this clause (b), file any motion, answer or other pleadings or take any other action that the Indemnified Party reasonably believes to be necessary or appropriate to protect its interests; and provided further, that if requested by the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party shall, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, provide reasonable cooperation to the Indemnifying Party in contesting any Third Party Claim that the Indemnifying Party elects to contest. The Indemnified Party may participate in, but not control, any defense or settlement of any Third Party Claim controlled by the Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Section 7.05(b), and except as provided in the preceding sentence, the Indemnified Party shall bear its own costs and expenses with respect to such participation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnified Party may take over the control of the defense or settlement of a Third Party Claim at any time if it irrevocably waives its right to indemnity under Section 7.02 or Section 7.03, as applicable, with respect to such Third Party Claim.

(c) If the Indemnifying Party fails to notify the Indemnified Party within the Dispute Period that the Indemnifying Party desires to defend the Third Party Claim pursuant to Section 7.05(b), or if the Indemnifying Party gives such notice but fails to prosecute vigorously and diligently or settle the Third Party Claim, or if the Indemnifying Party gives notice that it elects not to defend the Third Party Claim, then the Indemnified Party shall have the right to defend, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, the Third Party Claim by all appropriate proceedings, which proceedings shall be prosecuted by the Indemnified Party in a reasonable manner and in good faith or shall be settled at the discretion of the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall have full control of such defense and proceedings, including any compromise or settlement thereof; provided, however, that if requested by the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party shall, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, provide reasonable cooperation to the Indemnified Party and its counsel in contesting any Third Party Claim that the Indemnified Party is contesting. The Indemnifying Party may participate in, but not control, any defense or settlement controlled by the Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section 7.05(c), and the Indemnifying Party shall bear its own costs and expenses with respect to such participation.

(d) If the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party that it does not dispute its liability to the Indemnified Party with respect to the Third Party Claim under Section 7.02 or Section 7.03, as applicable, or fails to notify the Indemnified Party within the Dispute Period whether the Indemnifying Party disputes its liability to the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third Party Claim, the Loss in the amount specified in the Claim Notice shall be conclusively deemed a liability of the Indemnifying Party under Section 7.02 or Section 7.03, as applicable, and the Indemnifying Party shall pay the amount of such Loss to the Indemnified Party on demand. If the Indemnifying Party has timely disputed its liability with respect to such claim, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall proceed in good faith to attempt to negotiate a resolution of such dispute within 30 days.

(e) In the event any Indemnified Party should have a claim under Section 7.02 or Section 7.03, as applicable, against any Indemnifying Party that does not involve a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall deliver an Indemnity Notice with reasonable promptness to the Indemnifying Party. The failure by any Indemnified Party to give the Indemnity Notice shall not impair such party’s rights hereunder except to the extent that an Indemnifying Party demonstrates that it has been prejudiced thereby. If the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party that it does not dispute the claim described in such Indemnity Notice or fails to notify the Indemnified Party within the Dispute Period whether the Indemnifying Party disputes the claim described in such Indemnity Notice, the Loss in the amount specified in the Indemnity Notice shall be conclusively deemed a liability of the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnifying Party shall pay the amount of such Loss to the Indemnified Party on demand. If the Indemnifying Party has timely disputed its liability with respect to such claim, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall proceed in good faith to attempt to negotiate a resolution of such dispute within thirty (30) days.

Section 7.06. Limitations on Indemnification. Neither the Seller Group nor the Parent and the Buyer shall be obligated to indemnify or hold harmless the other in respect of any Losses suffered, incurred or sustained by such party under Section 7.02(a)(i) or Section 7.03(a)(i), as applicable, until such Losses equal or exceed $37,500 in the aggregate (the “Threshold”) (at which point such party will be obligated to indemnify the other for the amount of such Losses from the first dollar) and neither the Seller Group nor the Parent and the Buyer shall be obligated to indemnify the other for the amount of any Losses as a result of any breach or breaches under Section 7.02(a)(i) or Section 7.03(a)(i) in excess of $3,900,000 (the “Cap”); provided, however, that the Threshold and Cap shall not apply to any Losses resulting from (i) fraud on the part of such party, or (ii) any breach of or inaccuracy in any of the Fundamental Representations or Parent Fundamental Representations; provided further, however, that nothing in this Section 7.06 shall limit the obligation of the Seller Group to indemnify the Parent Indemnitees with respect to the items set forth in Sections 7.02(a)(ii), (iii), (iv), and (v) and Section 7.02(b).

Section 7.07. Calculation of Losses. For purposes of determining Losses under Article 7, but not for determining the breach of any representations or warranties, the representations and warranties of the Seller Group shall not be deemed qualified by any references to materiality or Material Adverse Effect; provided, however, this Section 7.07 shall not apply to the definition of “Material Contracts” or any obligation to list on an applicable schedule only “material” items, and to Section 2.08.

Section 7.08. Exclusive Remedy; Exclusion of Damages; Calculation of Damages.

(a) Absent fraud, the indemnification provided for in this Section 7.08 shall be the sole and exclusive post-Closing remedy available to any Party against the other Parties in respect of any Losses arising under or based upon this Agreement, the breach of the representations, warranties and covenants contained here, or the transactions contemplated hereby.

(b) Absent fraud, no Party hereto will be entitled to receive from any other Party hereto punitive damages as a result of Losses hereunder; provided, however that this limitation shall not apply with respect to any Losses that arise from a claim involving a third party proceeding if such punitive damages are claimed by such third party.

(c) For the purposes of the indemnification provisions set forth in this Section 7.08, any Losses shall be determined on a net basis after giving effect to any actual cash payments, setoffs, recoupment, or any other payments in each case received, realized, or retained by the Indemnified Party (including any amounts recovered or recoverable by the Indemnified Party from unaffiliated third party insurance providers) as a result of any event giving rise to a claim for such indemnification.

Section 7.09. Effect of Investigation. The representations, warranties and covenants of the Indemnifying Party, and the Indemnified Party's right to indemnification with respect thereto, shall not be affected or deemed waived by reason of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Party (including by any of its Representatives) or by reason of the fact that the Indemnified Party or any of its Representatives knew or should have known that any such representation or warranty is, was or might be inaccurate or by reason of the Indemnified Party's waiver of any condition set forth in Section 5.01 or Section 5.02, as the case may be

ARTICLE 8 Termination.

Section 8.01. Termination. This Agreement may be terminated, and the Transactions may be abandoned:

(iv) By either the Parent or the Seller Group if any court of competent jurisdiction or other Governmental Authority shall have issued an Order or taken any other action permanently enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting the Transactions and such order, decree, ruling or other action shall have become final and non-appealable.

Section 8.02. Effect of Termination. Upon termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01, all of the obligations of the parties shall terminate except those under Sections 9.04, 9.05, 9.13 and 9.14; provided, however, that (i) no such termination shall relieve any party of any liability to the other party by reason of any breach of or default under this Agreement, and (ii) the parties shall not publicly disclose, and the parties shall cause their Affiliates and Representatives not to publicly disclose, the proposed terms and conditions set forth herein or any non-public information regarding the other party, except as may be required by Law.
