                   (i)           The Shareholders shall receive an Earn-Out Payment from Buyer in an amount of fifty percent (50%) of the EBITDA of the Company during each of (1) the period commencing on October 1, 2014 and ending on September 30, 2015 (the “First Earn-Out Year”) and (2) the period commencing on October 1, 2015 and ending on September 30, 2016 (the “Second Earn-Out Year” and together with the First Earn-Out Year, the “Earn-Out Period”).

                   (iii)          For each of the First Earn-Out Year and the Second Earn-Out Year, Buyer shall prepare and complete a calculation of the Earn-Out Payment for the applicable Earn-Out Year based on the EBITDA for the Company during such Earn-Out Year calculated in accordance with GAAP, applied on a consistent basis with the Company’s past practices as of the Closing Date.

                (i)               No Triggering of Obligations.

                (a)              Access to Information. From and after the Closing until the seven (7) year anniversary of the Closing Date (or if any indemnity claims pursuant to Article 6 are pending as of such date, the date such claims are Finally Determined), each Party shall afford any other Party, its respective counsel, accountants and other representatives, during normal business hours, reasonable access to the books, records and other data in such Party’s possession relating directly or indirectly to the Business and the assets, Liabilities or operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries, and the right to make copies and extracts therefrom at its expense, to the extent such access is reasonably required by the requesting Party for any proper business purpose, including in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby. Without limitation, after the Closing, each Party shall make available to any other Party, as reasonably requested, and to any Governmental Entity that is legally permitted to receive the following pursuant to its subpoena power or its equivalent, all books, records and other data relating to Tax Liabilities or potential Tax Liabilities for all periods prior to or including the Closing Date and shall preserve all such books, records and other data until the expiration of any applicable statute of limitations for assessment or refund of Taxes or extensions thereof. Subject to the previous sentence, each Party agrees, for a period of seven (7) years after the Closing Date, not to destroy or otherwise dispose of any of the books, records or other data described in this Section 5.1(a) without first offering in writing to surrender such books, records and other data to the other Parties, which the other Parties shall have thirty (30) days after such offer to agree in writing to take possession thereof.

                (b)              Cooperation. Each Party shall cooperate, as and to the extent reasonably requested by any other Party, in connection with (i) the filing of Tax Returns pursuant to Section 5.2 and (ii) any Litigation (including insurance claims) brought by or against any third party in connection with (A) any transaction contemplated by this Agreement or (B) any fact or condition relating to the Company’s business or assets prior to the Closing. Such cooperation shall include making available to the requesting Party, at such times and under such circumstances so as not to unreasonably disrupt business, the relevant information, documents, records and employees of the cooperating Party, allowing the relevant personnel of the cooperating Party to assist the requesting Party in participating in any such matter (including providing testimony in Litigation), executing and delivering documents or instruments and taking all such action as the requesting Party reasonably requests in connection with such matter. The requesting Party shall promptly reimburse the cooperating Party for all out-of-pocket costs directly relating to such cooperation of such Party and any of the cooperating Party’s employees and representatives who assist the requesting Party (unless the contesting or defending party is entitled to indemnification therefor under Article 6). The Shareholders agree, as and to the extent reasonably requested by Buyer and at Buyer’s expenses, to use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any certificate or other document from any Governmental Entity or other person or entity as may be necessary to mitigate, reduce or eliminate any Tax that could be imposed (including with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby). Buyer and the Shareholders further agree, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other Party, to provide such other Party with all information that either Party may be required to report pursuant to Section 6043 of the Code and all Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder (if any).

                (a)               Tax Returns for Pre-Closing Tax Periods. The Shareholders shall file, or cause the Company to file, on a timely basis, all Income Tax Returns for Pre-Closing Tax Periods and any other Tax Returns that are required to be filed by the Company on or prior to the Closing Date (taking into account any extensions of time to file). The Shareholders shall allow Buyer to review and comment on any Tax Return prepared pursuant to this Section 5.2(a) at any time during the forty-five (45) day period immediately preceding the filing of such Tax Return and, to the extent required to comply with applicable Tax Laws, shall accept any reasonable comments made by Buyer. The Shareholders shall pay or cause the Company to pay (or reimburse Buyer for) all Taxes due and payable on the Tax Returns filed under the first sentence of this Section 5.2(a), but only to the extent such Taxes are not taken into account in computing the Final Closing Net Working Capital.

                (b)              Tax Returns for Straddle Periods. Buyer shall cause to be prepared and filed any Tax Returns of the Company for Pre-Closing Tax Periods not described in Section 5.2(a) and for Straddle Periods and shall cause the Company to pay the Taxes shown to be due thereon, provided that Shareholders shall promptly reimburse Buyer for the portion of such Tax that relates to a Pre-Closing Tax Period to the extent such Taxes are not taken into account in the calculation of the Final Closing Net Working Capital. Buyer shall allow the Shareholders to review and comment upon any Tax Return prepared pursuant to this Section 5.2(b) at any time during the forty-five (45) day period immediately preceding the filing of such Tax Return and shall accept any reasonable comments made by the Shareholders. Buyer and Shareholders agree to cause the Company to prepare any Tax Returns for any Straddle Period consistently with past practices (except as otherwise required by Law) and to file all Tax Returns covered by this Section 5.2(b) on the basis that the relevant taxable period ended as of the close of business on the Closing Date, unless the relevant Governmental Entity will not accept a Tax Return filed on that basis. For purposes of this Section 5.2(b), in the case of any Taxes that are imposed on a periodic basis and are payable for a Tax period that includes (but does not end on) the Closing Date, the portion of such Taxes that relates to the portion of such Tax period ending on the Closing Date shall (A) in the case of any Taxes other than Taxes based upon or related to income or receipts, be deemed to be the amount of such Taxes for the entire Tax period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the Tax period ending on and including the Closing Date, and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire Tax period, and (B) in the case of any Taxes based upon or related to income or receipts, be deemed equal to the amount that would be payable if the relevant Tax period ended on the Closing Date, using the “closing of the books” method of accounting, and in a manner consistent with the Recent Balance Sheet. Any credits relating to a Tax period that begins before and ends after the Closing Date shall be taken into account as though the relevant Tax period ended on the Closing Date.

                   (i)           Buyer shall notify the Shareholders in writing promptly, and in any event within 30 days, after becoming aware of the commencement of any audit or administrative or judicial proceeding, or of any demand or claim on the Company, the Buyer or any of its Affiliates which could give rise to a claim for indemnification under Section 6.1(c) (a “Tax Indemnification Event”). Such notice shall contain factual information (to the extent known to the Buyer or its Affiliates) with respect to the Tax Indemnification Event in reasonable detail and shall include copies of any notice or other document received from any Governmental Entity in respect thereof. If, in breach of its obligations hereunder, the Buyer fails to give the Shareholders notice of a Tax Indemnification Event or fails to apprise the Shareholders in sufficient detail of the nature of the claim (in each instance taking into account the facts and circumstances with respect to such claim), the Shareholders shall not be liable under this Agreement for such claim to the extent that the rights of the Shareholders with respect to such claim are actually prejudiced or the amount of Tax which the Shareholders would be required to indemnify is increased.

                   (ii)          The Shareholders may elect to direct, through counsel of their own choosing and at their own expense, any audit, claim for refund or administrative or judicial proceeding involving any Taxes for which indemnity could be sought from the Shareholders under Section 6.1(c) (any such audit, claim for refund or proceeding is referred to herein as a “Tax Audit”) and which relates to a Pre-Closing Tax Period that is not a Straddle Period. Any Tax Audit with respect to a Straddle Period shall be directed by Buyer, provided that Buyer shall allow the Shareholders and their counsel to participate in such Tax Audit at the Shareholders’ sole expense, and that Buyer shall not settle or compromise any asserted Tax liability for such Straddle Period for which Shareholders may be liable under this Agreement without the consent of the Shareholders, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If the Shareholders elect to direct any Tax Audit as permitted under the first sentence of this Section 5.2(c)(ii), they shall promptly notify the Buyer of the intent to do so and in any event within sixty (60) days of receipt of the notice of the Tax Indemnification Event relating to such Tax Audit. In the case of any Tax Audit, the Buyer and each of its Affiliates, as the case may be, shall give to the Shareholders any information reasonably requested by the Shareholders relating to such Tax Audit and otherwise shall cooperate with the Shareholders in good faith in order to contest effectively any such Tax Audit. If the Shareholders choose to direct the Tax Audit, the Buyer shall promptly empower and shall cause each of its Affiliates, as applicable, promptly to empower (by power of attorney and such other documentation as may be necessary and appropriate) such representatives of the Shareholders as it may designate to represent the Buyer and any relevant Affiliate in the Tax Audit insofar as the Tax Audit involves an asserted Tax Liability for which the Shareholders could be liable under Section 6.1(c). The Shareholders may not settle or compromise any asserted Tax Liability of the Company for any Pre-Closing Tax Period without the consent of Buyer (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) if such settlement or compromise would have the effect of increasing Taxes of the Company for any period ending after the Closing Date; provided, however, that consent to settlement or compromise shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. In any case where Buyer is permitted to direct any Tax Audit as herein provided, the Buyer and each of its Affiliates, as applicable, shall take such reasonable steps as may be prudent and within its capacity to preserve the right of the relevant entity to contest such asserted Tax Liability, may pay, compromise or contest, such asserted Tax Liability and shall be reimbursed by the Shareholders for all “out of pocket” costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ and accountants’ fees and disbursements incurred pursuant to this sentence to the extent attributable to a Tax Liability indemnifiable by the Shareholders hereunder. However, in each such case, neither the Buyer nor any of its Affiliates may settle or compromise any asserted Tax Liability without the consent of the Shareholders; provided, however, that consent to settlement or compromise shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

                (d)               Tax Sharing Agreement. All Tax sharing Contracts or similar Contracts with respect to or involving the Company shall be terminated as of the Closing Date. After the Closing Date, the Company shall not be bound thereby or have any Liability thereunder, and such Contracts shall have no further effect for any Tax year (whether the current year, a future year or a past year).

                (e)               Section 338(h)(10) Election. Shareholders and Buyer shall timely join in making an election under Section 338(h)(10) of the Code (and any corresponding elections under state, local, or foreign tax Law) (collectively, a “Section 338(h)(10) Election”) with respect to the purchase and sale of the stock of the Company. In that event:

                   (i)           With respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period, the Shareholders shall pay any Tax attributable to the making of the Section 338(h)(10) Election (including, without limitation, any Liability of the Company for any state, local, or non-U.S. Tax imposed on the Company’s gain).

                   (ii)          Buyer and Shareholders shall exchange completed and executed copies of IRS Form 8023 and required schedules thereto and any other form or schedule required to effect the Section 338(h)(10) Election.

                   (iii)         The “aggregate deemed sales price” (as defined in Treas. Reg. §1.338-4) (the “ADSP”) and the “adjusted gross-up basis” (as defined in Treas. Reg. §1.338-5) (the “AGUB”) shall be allocated among the assets of each Company in accordance with the principles set forth on Schedule 5.2(e). Buyer shall deliver to the Shareholders a proposed allocation schedule (“Proposed Allocation Schedule”) consistent with the principles described in Schedule 5.2(e) no later than one hundred twenty (120) days after the Closing. The Shareholders shall have thirty (30) days to review and respond to the Proposed Allocation Schedule. If the Shareholders determine that the Proposed Allocation Schedule has not been prepared in accordance with the principles described in Schedule 5.2(e) or otherwise object to the Proposed Allocation Schedule, then the Shareholders shall inform Buyer on or before the last day of such thirty (30) day period by delivering written notice to Buyer (the “Allocation Schedule Objection”). If no Allocation Schedule Objection is delivered to Buyer within such thirty (30) day period, then the Shareholders shall be deemed to have accepted the Proposed Allocation Schedule. If an Allocation Schedule Objection is delivered to Buyer, then Buyer shall have fifteen (15) days to review and respond to the Allocation Schedule Objection by delivering written notice to the Shareholders specifying the scope of its disagreement with the information contained in it. If no such written notice is delivered to the Shareholders within such fifteen (15) day period, then Buyer shall be deemed to have accepted the Allocation Schedule Objection. If Buyer delivers a written notice to the Shareholders in response to an Allocation Schedule Objection, then Buyer and the Shareholders shall promptly meet (in Person, by telephone or otherwise) and attempt in good faith to resolve any dispute or disagreement relating to the Proposed Allocation Schedule (the “Allocation Schedule Dispute”). If Buyer and the Shareholders are unable to resolve the Allocation Schedule Dispute within thirty (30) days following the delivery of an Allocation Schedule Objection to Buyer, then, at any time thereafter, Buyer or the Shareholders may elect to have the Allocation Schedule Dispute resolved by the CPA Firm, with the fees for such CPA Firm to be apportioned equitably by the CPA Firm in inverse proportion to the amount in dispute for which each of them is successful. The allocation schedule, as agreed to by Buyer and the Shareholders or as revised by the CPA Firm, shall be the final allocation schedule (the “Final Allocation Schedule”). The Parties agree not to take any position inconsistent with the Final Allocation Schedule for Tax reporting purposes unless otherwise required by a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313 of the Code (or similar state law) to the contrary.

                (a)               Subject to Section 5.4(d) below, from and after the Closing, the Company and each of its respective Subsidiaries shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, indemnify, defend and hold harmless, each Person who is now, or has been at any time prior to the date hereof or who becomes prior to the Closing, an officer, director or employee of the Company of any of its Subsidiaries (each, a “D&O Indemnified Party”) to the same extent that such Persons are indemnified as of the date hereof by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to their respective organizational documents, in existence on the date hereof with any D&O Indemnified Party; provided that, the Company and its Subsidiaries shall not indemnify, defend or hold harmless any D&O Indemnified Party for acts or omissions that involve bad faith, fraud or intentional misconduct or for any transaction from which the D&O Indemnified Party has or will personally receive a benefit in money, property, or services to which he or she is not legally entitled.

                (b)              For a period of six (6) years after the Closing and at all times subject to applicable Law, unless otherwise agreed by the Shareholders, Buyer shall not (and shall not cause or permit the Company or its Subsidiaries or any of Buyer’s other Subsidiaries or Affiliates to) amend or modify in any way adverse to the D&O Indemnified Parties, or to the beneficiaries thereof, the exculpation and indemnification provisions set forth in the organizational documents of the Company or its Subsidiaries with respect to time periods at or prior to the Closing.

                (c)               Prior to the Closing, the Company shall have obtained and paid for an extended reporting period also referred to as tail or runoff coverage under the directors’ and officers’ liability, Employment Practices Liability, and Fiduciary Liability insurance policy at coverage levels currently in place for those Persons who are covered by the Company’s directors’ and officers’ liability, Employment Practices Liability, and Fiduciary Liability insurance policy on the date hereof (the “Tail Policy”) by (a) maintaining the current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance of the Company with respect to actions or omissions prior to the Closing for a duration of no less than six (6) years after the Closing Date and/or (b) by purchasing a “tail” policy with respect thereto for no less than six (6) years after the Closing Date. Fifty percent (50%) of the cost of such Tail Policy shall be at the Buyer’s expense. The Shareholders have provided a copy of such tail or runoff coverage to Buyer prior to Closing. From and after the Closing, Buyer shall (and/or shall cause the Company or its Subsidiaries or its other subsidiaries or Affiliates, as applicable, to) continue to honor its obligations under any such insurance procured pursuant to this Section 5.4, and shall not cancel (or permit to be canceled) or take (or cause to be taken) any action or omission that would reasonably be expected to result in the cancellation thereof.

                (d)              Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.4, (i) no Shareholder Indemnified Party shall be entitled to seek indemnification from the Company under this Section 5.4 for any matter for which a Buyer Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification from a Shareholder pursuant to Article 6 hereof, (ii) in no event shall a D&O Indemnified Party be entitled to recover or make a claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 5.4(a) unless and until such D&O Indemnified Party has first pursued a claim with respect thereto under the Tail Policy and shall only be entitled to make a claim for indemnification to the extent such claim is not paid in full by the Tail Policy; and (iii) this Section 5.4 shall not apply to claims brought by or on behalf of the Shareholders.

                (b)              consult with, advise or assist in any material way, whether or not for consideration, any Competitor in any aspect of the Business, including advertising or otherwise endorsing the products or services of any such Competitor, soliciting customers or otherwise serving as an intermediary for any such Competitor or loaning money or rendering any other form of financial assistance to any such Competitor;

                (e)              engage in any practice the purpose of which is to evade the provisions of this covenant not to compete;

                (b)              With respect to each Person who is an employee of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time (a “Continuing Employee”), for a period of at least twelve (12) months following the Closing Date, Buyer shall provide each such Continuing Employee while such Continuing Employee remains in the employment of the Company and its Affiliates, with (i) a base salary or wage rate at least equal to the Continuing Employee’s base salary or wage rate in effect as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, and (ii) employee benefits (other than any equity-based compensation, defined benefit pension benefits and retiree medical benefits, if any) that are, in the aggregate, no less favorable than the employee benefits (other than any incentive compensation, equity-based compensation, defined benefit pension benefits and retiree medical benefits, if any) provided to Buyer’s similarly-situated employees immediately prior to the Effective Time.

                (c)              For purposes of eligibility, vesting and entitlement to benefits, including the determination of the level or amount of vacation and severance pay benefits under the benefit and compensation plans, programs, agreements and arrangements of Buyer, the Company or any of their respective Affiliates in which Continuing Employees are eligible to participate following the Closing (the “Buyer Plans”), Buyer, the Company or their respective Affiliates shall credit each Continuing Employee with his or her years of service with the Company and any predecessor entities, to the same extent as such Continuing Employee was entitled immediately prior to the Closing to credit for such service under any similar Employee Plan/Agreement or if no such Employee Plan/Agreement was in effect, to the extent permitted under the applicable Buyer Plan, except where such credit would result in a duplication of benefits. Each Continuing Employee shall be immediately eligible to participate, without any waiting time, in any and all Buyer Plans to the extent coverage under such Buyer Plan replaces coverage under a substantially similar Employee Plan/Agreement in which such Continuing Employee participated immediately before such replacement. For purposes of each Buyer Plan providing medical, dental, pharmaceutical and/or vision benefits to any Continuing Employee, Buyer, the Company or their respective Affiliates shall (i) cause all pre-existing condition exclusions and actively-at-work requirements of such Buyer Plan to be waived for such Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents except to the extent such pre-existing conditions and actively-at-work requirements would apply under the analogous Employee Plan/Agreement and (ii) to the extent adequate records are provided to Buyer to permit Buyer to comply with this clause (ii), cause any eligible expenses incurred by such Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents under an Employee Plan/Agreement during the portion of the plan year prior to the Closing Date to be taken into account under such Buyer Plan for purposes of satisfying all deductible, co-insurance, co-payment and maximum out-of-pocket requirements applicable to such employee and his or her covered dependents for the applicable plan year as if such amounts had been paid in accordance with such Buyer Plan. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, with respect to any Buyer Plan that is a fully insured welfare plan, the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.7(c) shall not apply unless the insurance carrier consents thereto; provided that Buyer, the Company or their respective Affiliates shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such insurance carrier to consent to the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.7(c).

                   (i)           shall maintain separate books and records for the Business and maintain and operate the Business as a separate and distinct division of Buyer, in order to facilitate, among other things, the calculation of EBITDA as contemplated hereby;

                   (ii)          shall not take any action (x) with the intention of reducing the EBITDA for the Earn-Out Period or (y) with the primary effect of reducing the EBITDA for the Earn-Out Period without any legitimate business purpose; and

                   (iii)         shall use reasonable efforts to ensure that the Business has capital adequate for its existing operations.

                (a)               Notice. The Indemnified Party shall give the Party or Parties from whom indemnification is sought (collectively, the “Indemnifying Party”) prompt written notice of any Third Party Claim describing in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances with respect to the subject matter of such claim or demand (taking into account the information then available to the Indemnified Party) and an estimate of the amount of Losses with respect to such claim or demand if such an estimate is reasonably determinable. Failure to give notice of the Third Party Claim shall not affect the Indemnifying Party’s duties or obligations under this Article 6, except to the extent the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced thereby, it being agreed that notices for claims in respect of a breach of a representation, warranty, covenant or agreement must be delivered prior to the expiration of any applicable survival period specified in this Article 6 for such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement and that such notice shall preserve any such claim despite the subsequent expiration of such survival period.

                (b)              Defense. The Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to undertake and control the defense, compromise and/or settlement of the Third Party Claim, by representatives chosen by the Indemnifying Party and reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party, if the Indemnifying Party admits that it has an indemnification obligation hereunder with respect to the Third Party Claim, subject to the terms, limitations and conditions of this Article 6, in which case such admission shall constitute the Indemnifying Party’s undertaking to pay directly all costs, expenses, damages, judgments, awards, penalties and assessments incurred in connection therewith subject to the terms, limitations and conditions of this Article 6. With the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party may undertake and control the defense, compromise and/or settlement of the Third Party Claim without admitting that it has an indemnification obligation hereunder. If the Indemnifying Party undertakes the defense of the Third Party Claim, then the Indemnifying Party shall allow the Indemnified Party a reasonable opportunity to participate in the defense of the Third Party Claim at its own expense. So long as the Indemnifying Party is defending the Third Party Claim actively and in good faith pursuant to this Section 6.3(b), the Indemnified Party shall not compromise or settle, or consent to the entry of a judgment with respect to, the Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party; provided, that no such consent shall be required for any such settlement or compromise that (i) is exclusively monetary, (ii) includes, as an unconditional term thereof, the giving by the third party asserting such claim to all Indemnified Parties of an unconditional release from all liability with respect to such claim and (iii) does not contain an admission of liability on the part of the Indemnified Party.

                (c)               Failure to Defend. If the Indemnifying Party, within a reasonable time after notice of the Third Party Claim, fails to defend the Third Party Claim actively and in good faith as described in Section 6.3(b), then the Indemnified Party shall (upon written notice to the Indemnifying Party) have the right to undertake the defense, compromise or settlement of the Third Party Claim and in the event it is Finally Determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that the claim was a matter for which the Indemnifying Party is required to provide indemnification under the terms of this Article 6, the Indemnifying Party will bear the reasonable costs and expenses of such defense (including fees and expenses of counsel). Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, if the Indemnified Party undertakes the defense, compromise or settlement of the Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party may nonetheless participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim with its own counsel and at its own expense and the Indemnified Party shall provide the Indemnifying Party with reasonable cooperation in the defense of the Third Party Claim. None of the Indemnified Party or Indemnifying Party shall consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or compromise with respect to a Third Party Claim contemplated in this Section 6.3(c) without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party or Indemnifying Party, as applicable, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed unless such settlement results in no monetary or other obligations on the Indemnifying Parties.

                (d)               Indemnified Party’s Rights. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article 6, if a Third Party Claim (i) relates to or has arisen in connection with any criminal action or (ii) seeks an injunction or other equitable relief against an Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates that could adversely affect in any material respect an Indemnified Party (except where equitable or injunctive relief is incidental to a primary claim or claims for monetary damages) then the Indemnified Party shall have the right to undertake and control the defense, compromise and/or settlement of such Third Party Claim without waiver of its rights against the Indemnifying Party, subject to the terms and conditions of this Article 6; provided, that the Indemnifying Party shall not settle or compromise, or consent to the entry of judgment with respect to, any such Third Party Claim that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or the plaintiff to the Indemnified Party of a release from all Liability in respect of such Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party.  Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, if the Indemnified Party undertakes the defense, compromise or settlement of the Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party may nonetheless participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim with its own counsel and at its own expense and the Indemnified Party shall provide the Indemnifying Party with reasonable cooperation in the defense of the Third Party Claim.

                   (i)           There shall be no time limitation on any claim or action brought for breach of any representation or warranty made in or pursuant to Sections 3.1(f), 3.2, 3.3, 3.26, 4.1(b) and 4.2 (the “Fundamental Representations”) and the Shareholders and Buyer, as applicable, hereby waive all applicable statutory limitation periods with respect thereto.

                   (ii)          Any claim or action brought for breach of any representation or warranty made in or pursuant to Sections 3.6 (Tax Matters), 3.12(c) (Environmental Matters) and 3.18 (Employee Benefit Plans) may be brought at any time until the third anniversary of the Closing Date, at which time such representations and warranties shall expire.

                   (iii)         Any claim or action made by an Indemnified Party by providing the Indemnifying Party with written notice of an alleged breach of a representation or warranty prior to the expiration of the survival period for such claim or action shall be preserved despite the subsequent expiration of such survival period.

                   (iv)         If any act, omission, disclosure or failure to disclose shall form the basis for a claim or action for breach of more than one representation or warranty and such claims have different periods of survival hereunder, then the expiration of the survival period of one claim or action shall not affect an Indemnified Party’s right to make a claim or action based on the breach of representation or warranty still surviving.

                (c)              Aggregate Amount Limitation. Except with respect to claims for breaches of Fundamental Representations (as to which the limitation in this Section 6.5(iv)(c) shall not apply), the aggregate amount of all Losses actually paid by an Indemnified Party under this Article 6 for breaches of representations and/or warranties shall not exceed Six Million Dollars ($6,000,000).

                (d)              Additional Limitations. The amount of any Loss subject to indemnification pursuant to this Article 6 shall be:

                   (i)           calculated net of any Tax Benefit inuring to the Indemnified Party on account of such Loss in the Tax year in which such Loss occurs or in the immediately following taxable year. If the Indemnified Party receives a Tax Benefit in any taxable year beginning after the indemnity payment is made to it, the Indemnified Party shall promptly pay to the Indemnifying Party the amount of such Tax Benefit at such time or times as and to the extent that such Tax Benefit is realized by the Indemnified Party. For purposes hereof, “Tax Benefit” shall mean, with respect to any Loss subject to indemnity under this Article 6, an amount by which the Income Tax Liability of a Party (or a group of corporations filing a Tax Return that includes such Party), with respect to a taxable period, is actually reduced solely as a result of such Loss or the amount of Tax refund that is generated solely as a result of such Loss, and any related interest received from any relevant taxing authority, in each case calculated by treating the deductions arising from the Loss as the last items available to offset income in such federal and state Income Tax Returns;

                   (ii)          calculated net of any amounts recovered by any Indemnified Party under insurance policies with respect to such Losses (reduced by the amount of costs incurred in procuring such recoveries and by the amount of any Income Tax payable by the Indemnified Party in respect of such recovery, if any); and

                   (iii)          reduced to the extent that such Loss (or any part thereof) was taken into account in the determination of Final Closing Net Working Capital.
