NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the mutual
covenants contained herein, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Definitions.
-----------
Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings
ascribed to such terms in the Merger Agreement.
2. Indemnification.
---------------
(a) Indemnification by the Major Stockholder. Subject to Section 2(e),
the Major Stockholder shall indemnify the Parent Companies, their respective
directors, officers, employees and agents, and their respective successors and
assigns (collectively, the "Parent Company Indemnified Parties") from and
against and in respect of any and all losses, costs, fines, liabilities, claims,
penalties, interest, damages and expenses (including reasonable legal fees and
expenses incurred in the investigation, defense and settlement of claims and
actions) (collectively "Losses") that may be suffered or incurred by any of them
resulting from, in connection with or arising out of:
(i) any breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made
by the Major Stockholder in the Merger Agreement;
(ii) any breach of any covenant or agreement made by the Major
Stockholder in the Merger Agreement;
(iii) any breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty
made by the Company in the Merger Agreement or in any closing
certificate executed and delivered by, or on behalf of, the Company in
connection with the Merger Agreement;
(iv) any breach at or prior to the Effective Time of any covenant
or agreement made by the Company in the Merger Agreement;
(v) any Taxes imposed on or incurred by the Company or any of its
subsidiaries for any taxable period ending on or before the Effective
Time (or portion, determined as described in Section 2(c)(ix), of any
Taxes imposed on or incurred by the Company or any of its subsidiaries
for any taxable period beginning before and ending after the Effective
Time which is allocable to the portion of such taxable period occurring
on or before the Effective Time (the "Pre-Closing Period")), to the
extent such Taxes exceed the amount of estimated payments made prior to
the Effective Time;
(vi) the action pending in the Circuit Court for Fairfax County,
Virginia, styled HomeVision USA, L.L.C. v. Realty Media, L.C. et al.,
In Chancery No. 161784, the matters alleged therein or any other claim
or allegation relating thereto;
(vii) the sponsorship, formation, operation and qualification of
the ESOP or the Management Consulting & Research, Inc. Profit Sharing
Plan (the "Profit Sharing Plan"), any transaction or condition
occurring or existing on or prior to the Closing Date with respect to
the Plans, including any such Losses suffered or incurred in connection
with the operation, continuance and qualification of such Plans from
and after the Closing Date to the extent such Losses result from any
transaction or condition occurring or existing on or prior to the
Closing Date and any such Losses incurred as a result of actions taken
by Parent, the Major Stockholder, the Company or the Surviving
Corporation, or any representative thereof, in accordance with the
provisions of Section 6 of this Agreement. The indemnification provided
under this Section 2(a)(vii) shall include in the determination of
Losses arising from such matters the amount of any income Tax, together
with any interest and penalties thereon payable by any employees prior
to a distribution to such employees of Plan assets in accordance with
the terms of the Plans or prior to the completion of the merger of the
Plans with, or transfer of Plan assets to other qualified retirement
plans sponsored by the Parent Companies; or
(viii) any action, suit or proceeding relating to any of the
foregoing or to the enforcement of Section 2 of this Agreement.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary,
Major Stockholder will have no liability to Parent Companies with
respect to Losses arising solely as a result of the failure to obtain a
consent of a lessor under a real property lease listed under item 3 on
Schedule 3.18(a) of the Merger Agreement prior to the Effective Time.
(b) Parent Companies' Indemnification. Subject to Section 2(e), Parent
Companies shall indemnify and hold the Major Stockholder harmless from and
against and in respect of any
2
and all Losses that may be suffered or incurred by any of them resulting from,
in connection with or arising out of:
(i) any breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made
by the Parent Companies in the Merger Agreement or in any closing
certificate executed and delivered by, or on behalf of, the Parent
Companies in connection with the Merger Agreement;
(ii) any breach of any covenant or agreement made by the Parent
Companies in the Merger Agreement; or
(iii) any action, suit or proceeding relating to any of the
foregoing or to the enforcement of Section 2 of this Agreement.
(c) Indemnification Procedures. All claims for indemnification under
this Agreement shall be asserted and resolved as follows:
(i) A party claiming indemnification under this Agreement (an
"Indemnified Party") shall promptly (A) notify the party from whom
indemnification is sought (the "Indemnifying Party") of any third-party
claim or claims ("Third Party Claim") asserted against the Indemnified
Party which could give rise to a right of indemnification under this
Agreement and (B) transmit to the Indemnifying Party a written notice
("Claim Notice") describing in reasonable detail the nature of the
Third Party Claim, a copy of all papers served with respect to such
claim (if any), an estimate of the amount of damages attributable to
the Third Party Claim, if reasonably possible, and the basis of the
Indemnified Party's request for indemnification under this Agreement.
(ii) Within thirty (30) days after receipt of any Claim Notice (the
"Election Period"), the Indemnifying Party shall notify the Indemnified
Party (A) whether the Indemnifying Party disputes its potential
liability to the Indemnified Party under this Agreement with respect to
such Third Party Claim and (B) whether the Indemnifying Party desires,
at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, to defend the
Indemnified Party against such Third Party Claim.
(iii) If the Indemnifying Party notifies (a "Defense Notice") the
Indemnified Party within the Election Period that the Indemnifying
Party does not dispute its potential liability to the Indemnified Party
under this Agreement and that the Indemnifying Party elects to assume
the defense of the Third Party Claim, then the Indemnifying Party shall
have the right to defend, at its sole cost and expense, such Third
Party Claim by all appropriate proceedings, which proceedings shall be
prosecuted diligently by the Indemnifying Party to a final conclusion
or settled at the discretion of the Indemnifying Party in accordance
with this Section 2(c). When the Indemnifying Party conducts the
defense, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to approve the
defense counsel representing the Indemnifying Party in such defense,
which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and in
the event the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party cannot agree
upon such counsel within ten (10) days after the Defense Notice is
provided, then the Indemnifying Party shall propose an alternate
defense counsel, which shall be subject again to the Indemnified
Party's approval, which approval
3
shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The Indemnifying Party
shall have full control of such defense and proceedings including any
compromise or settlement thereof; provided, that without the prior
written consent of the Indemnified Party (which shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed), the Indemnifying Party shall not
enter into any settlement of any Third Party Claim if pursuant to or as
a result of such settlement, such settlement would result in any
liability or other obligation on the part of the Indemnified Party for
which the Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification
hereunder or which is non-monetary in nature. The Indemnified Party is
hereby authorized, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying
Party (but only if the Indemnified Party is actually entitled to
indemnification hereunder or if the Indemnifying Party assumes the
defense with respect to the Third Party Claim), to file, during the
Election Period, any motion, answer or other pleadings which the
Indemnified Party shall deem necessary or appropriate to protect its
interests or those of the Indemnifying Party. If requested by the
Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party shall, at the sole cost and
expense of the Indemnifying Party, cooperate with the Indemnifying
Party and its counsel in contesting any Third Party Claim which 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 2(c) and, except as permitted above, shall bear its own costs
and expenses with respect to such participation.
(iv) If the Indemnifying Party fails to notify the Indemnified
Party within the Election Period that the Indemnifying Party elects to
defend the Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section 2(c), or if the
Indemnifying Party elects to defend the Indemnified Party pursuant to
this Section 2(c) but fails to diligently and promptly prosecute or
settle 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. The
Indemnified Party shall have full control of such defense and
proceedings; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party may not
enter into, without the Indemnifying Party's consent, which shall not
be unreasonably withheld or delayed, any compromise or settlement of
such Third Party Claim. The Indemnifying Party may participate in, but
not control, any defense or settlement controlled by the Indemnified
Party pursuant to this Section 2(c), and the Indemnifying Party shall
bear its own costs and expenses with respect to such participation.
(v) Any judgment entered or settlement agreed upon in the manner
provided herein shall be binding upon the Indemnifying Party and shall
be conclusively deemed to be an obligation with respect to which the
Indemnified Party is entitled to prompt indemnification hereunder,
subject to the Indemnifying Party's right to appeal an appealable
judgment or order.
(vi) For purposes of this Section 2, any assertion of fact and/or
law by a third party that, if true, would constitute a breach of a
representation or warranty made by a party to this Agreement or make
operational an indemnification obligation hereunder, shall, on the date
that such assertion is made, immediately invoke that party's obligation
to protect, defend, hold harmless and indemnify the other party to this
Agreement pursuant to this Section 2.
4
(vii) The failure to provide notice as provided in this Section 2
shall not excuse any party from its continuing obligations hereunder;
however, any claim shall be reduced by the Losses resulting from such
party's delay or failure to provide notice as provided in this Section
2.
(viii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2,
should any Third Party Claim hereunder involve a situation where the
Indemnified Party reasonably anticipates that part of the claim will be
borne by it and part of the claim will be borne by the Indemnifying
Party due to the existence of the limitations in Section 2(e), the
parties shall jointly consult and proceed as to any such Third Party
Claim.
(ix) Whenever it is necessary for purposes of Section 2(a)(v) to
determine the portion of any Taxes imposed on or incurred by the
Company or its subsidiaries for a taxable period beginning before and
ending after the Effective Time which is allocable to the Pre-Closing
Period, the determination shall be made, in the case of property, ad
valorem or franchise Taxes, on a per diem basis and, in the case of
other Taxes, by assuming that the Pre-Closing Period constitutes a
separate taxable period of the Company and the subsidiaries (and any
tax partnerships in which the Company or its subsidiaries has an
interest) and by taking into account the actual taxable events
occurring during such period (except that exemptions, allowances and
deductions for a taxable period beginning before and ending after the
Effective Time that are calculated on an annual or periodic basis shall
be apportioned to the Pre-Closing Period ratably on a per diem basis).
(d) Nature of Other Liabilities. In the event any Indemnified Party
should have a claim against any Indemnifying Party hereunder which does not
involve a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall promptly transmit a
written notice (the "Indemnity Notice") to the Indemnifying Party, describing in
reasonable detail the nature of the claim and the basis of the Indemnified
Party's request for indemnification under this Agreement. If the Indemnifying
Party does not notify the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) days from its
receipt of the Indemnity Notice that the Indemnified Party disputes such claim,
the claim specified by the Indemnified Party in the Indemnity Notice shall be
deemed a liability of the Indemnifying Party hereunder.
(e) Certain Limitations on Remedies. Notwithstanding any provision
herein or in the Merger Agreement to the contrary:
(i) The Parent Company Indemnified Parties shall not be entitled to
assert (subject to the proviso below) any claim or claims for
indemnification or reimbursement pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof until,

expressly waives, releases, disavows and repudiates, to the fullest extent
permitted by law, any right or remedy of recision, or similar right or remedy
granted or to be granted under any state or federal law, rule, regulation or
interpretation thereof, whether now in force or hereafter enacted, applicable
