The Seller has the financial ability to bear the economic risk of a total diminution in value of the Greenlane Interests, has adequate means for providing for the Seller’s current needs and personal contingencies and has no need for liquidity with respect to the Seller’s acquisition of the Greenlane Interests.

3.11. Anti-Terrorism and Money Laundering Activities.

The Seller acknowledges and agrees that it will furnish to the Purchaser upon request a copy of the Seller’s identifying documents that will assist the Purchaser to properly identify the Seller as required by Federal Law. Such documents may include, without limitation, a copy of the Seller’s Governing Documents and evidence of the authority of the Person executing this Agreement on behalf of such the Seller that such Person has full authority to execute and deliver this Agreement on behalf of the Seller and otherwise to act on behalf of the Seller in connection with the Seller’s receipt of the Greenlane Interests.

3.12. Broker’s and Finder’s Fees. No broker, finder or other Person is entitled to any commission or finder’s fee in connection with this Agreement or with the transactions contemplated hereby as a result of any actions or commitments of the Seller.

3.13. No Reliance on IPO. The Seller acknowledges and agrees that in entering into this Agreement, it is not relying on any express or implied representation or other statement of the Purchaser regarding the Purchaser consummating or otherwise participating in an IPO.

The Seller Interests constitute all of the issued and outstanding limited liability company interests, Equity Securities, or similar interests of the Seller and are duly authorized and were validly issued in compliance with the Seller’s Governing Documents and all applicable securities Laws. There are no, and as of immediately following the Closing after giving effect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, there will not be, any Contracts, options, warrants, call rights, puts, convertible securities, exchangeable securities, understandings or other rights, arrangements or understandings of any kind to issue, repurchase, redeem, sell, deliver or otherwise acquire or cause to be issued, repurchased, redeemed, sold, delivered or acquired, any limited liability company interests, Equity Securities, Debt or similar interests in the Seller.

ARTICLE VI
INDEMNIFICATION; SURVIVAL

6.01. Indemnification by the Seller.

(a) Subject to the applicable provisions of this ‎Article VI and the last paragraph of this ‎Section ‎6.01, the Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser and its successors and assigns, members, directors, managers, partners, Personnel, representatives and agents, and those of its Affiliates (including the Company, on and after the Closing Date) (collectively, the “Purchaser Indemnified Parties”), from and against any and all Indemnity Losses directly or indirectly arising from:

(i) any misrepresentation or breach of any warranty regarding the Company contained in this Agreement, including, without limitation, as set forth in ‎Article IV;

(ii) (x) any Taxes (or the non-payment thereof) of the Company, for any Pre-Closing Tax Period (including that portion of any Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date, apportioned in accordance with ‎Section ‎7.04(b)); and (y) any Taxes of any Person imposed on the Company, as transferee or successor, by Contract, pursuant to any Law (including Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-6 or any analogous or similar state, local or foreign Law or regulation) or otherwise, which Taxes relate to an event or transaction occurring before the Closing;

(iii) any claim based on actual fraud or willful misconduct by or on behalf of the Company arising out of factors or circumstances existing prior to or as of the Closing; and/or

(iv) the matters set forth on Schedule ‎6.01.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Seller shall indemnify the Purchaser Indemnified Parties for any Indemnity Loss arising from:

(i) any misrepresentation or breach of any warranty of the Seller contained in this Agreement or any Related Agreement, including, without limitation, as set forth in Article III;

(ii) any breach or failure to perform by the Seller of the Seller’s covenants, obligations or agreements contained in this Agreement or any Related Agreement;

(iii) any Taxes (or non-payment thereof) of the Seller, including the Transfer Taxes under Section ‎7.03; and/or

(iv) any claim based on actual fraud or willful misconduct by or on behalf of the Seller.

6.02. Indemnification by the Purchaser. The Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless the Seller and its successors, assigns, heirs, representatives and agents (collectively, the “Seller Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all Indemnity Losses directly or indirectly arising from or relating to (a) any misrepresentation or breach of any warranty of the Purchaser contained in this Agreement, (b) any breach or failure to perform by the Purchaser of any of its covenants or obligations contained in this Agreement or (c) (x) any Taxes (or the non-payment thereof) of the Purchaser, for any Pre-Closing Tax Period; and (y) any Taxes of any Person imposed on the Purchaser, as transferee or successor, by Contract, pursuant to any Law (including Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-6 or any analogous or similar state, local or foreign Law or regulation) or otherwise, which Taxes relate to an event or transaction occurring before the Closing.

6.03. Indemnification Notice; Litigation Notice.

(a) If a party believes that it has suffered or incurred any Indemnity Loss for which it is entitled to indemnification pursuant to ‎Section ‎6.01 or ‎Section ‎6.02 (such party, the “Claimant”), such Claimant shall notify, as the case may be, (i) the Purchaser, in the event such Claimant is a Seller Indemnified Party, or (ii) the Seller, in the event such Claimant is a Purchaser Indemnified Party, promptly in writing (x) identifying the party or parties which such Claimant believes has or have an obligation to indemnify (the “Indemnifying Party”) and (y) describing such Indemnity Loss in reasonable detail, including the amount thereof, if known (or estimated amount as necessary) (such written notice, the “Indemnification Notice”). If any Proceeding is instituted by a third party against the Claimant with respect to which the Claimant intends to claim any Liability or expense as an Indemnity Loss under this ‎Article VI (a “Third Party Claim”), such Claimant shall promptly notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of such Third Party Claim describing such Indemnity Loss in reasonable detail, including the amount thereof, if known (or estimated amount as necessary) (such written notice, a “Litigation Notice”). For the avoidance of doubt, in the event that a Third Party Claim arises prior to the time an Indemnification Notice is issued by a Claimant, the Indemnification Notice and Litigation Notice may be combined into a single notice so long as such notice contains the information required in both an Indemnification Notice and a Litigation Notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the failure or delay to notifying the Indemnifying Party of any Indemnity Loss or Third Party Claim shall not affect the Claimant’s rights or the Indemnifying Party’s obligations hereunder, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party demonstrates that it was materially and adversely prejudiced thereby.

(b) If a claim is one that is asserted directly by the Claimant against an Indemnifying Party, within thirty (30) calendar days after receipt of the applicable Indemnification Notice, the Indemnifying Party shall, by written notice to the Claimant (a “Claim Response”), either concede or deny liability for the claim set forth in such Indemnification Notice. If an Indemnifying Party shall deny liability, in whole or in part, such Claim Response shall be accompanied by a reasonably detailed description of the basis for such denial. If an Indemnifying Party fails to deliver a Claim Response within such thirty (30) calendar day period by 5:00 p.m., Eastern time, on the last day of such period, such Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have conceded, subject only to the limitations set forth herein, the entire amount of such claim and, subject to the limitations set forth in this ‎Article VI, the Claimant shall be entitled to the entire amount of such Indemnity Loss. If an Indemnifying Party denies liability for a claim, in whole or in part, the Purchaser and the Seller shall attempt to resolve such dispute as promptly as possible. If the Purchaser and the Seller fail to resolve such dispute within thirty (30) calendar days after receipt of the Claim Response corresponding to such dispute, any party may commence appropriate legal Proceedings in order to obtain a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction that is not subject to further appeal as provided in ‎Section ‎10.12.

6.04. Defense of Third Party Claims. Upon receipt of a Litigation Notice, the applicable Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) calendar days after receipt of a Litigation Notice to notify the Claimant in writing that it elects to conduct and control any Proceeding with respect to an identifiable claim (the “Election Notice”) with legal counsel reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Indemnified Parties so long as the Third Party Claim (i) seeks solely money damages (and not injunctive or other equitable relief) and, in the event that the Seller or any of its Affiliates would be the Indemnifying Party, (ii) will have no continuing material adverse effect on the Business or the Company. In the event the Indemnifying Party so assumes the conduct and control of any such Third Party Claim, such assumption of the conduct and control by the Indemnifying Party shall conclusively establish for purposes of this Agreement that all Indemnity Losses incurred by the Indemnified Parties in connection with such Third Party Claim are within the scope of and subject to indemnification hereunder subject to the limitations set forth in this ‎Article VI. If the Indemnifying Party does not give the foregoing Election Notice during such thirty (30) day period, then the Claimant shall have the right (but not the obligation) to defend, contest, settle or compromise such Third Party Claim in the exercise of its reasonable discretion. If the Indemnifying Party timely gives the foregoing Election Notice, then the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to undertake, conduct and control, at the Indemnifying Party’s sole reasonable cost and expense, the conduct and settlement of such Third Party Claim, and the Claimant shall cooperate, at the Indemnifying Party’s sole reasonable cost and expense, including by providing reasonable access during regular business hours to records and Personnel of the Company, as applicable, to the Indemnifying Party in connection therewith; provided, however, that (i) the Indemnifying Party shall permit the Claimant to participate in such conduct or settlement through legal counsel chosen by the Claimant, but the fees and expenses of such legal counsel shall be borne solely by the Claimant, and (ii) the Indemnifying Party shall have authority to compromise or settle any such claim without the prior written consent of the Claimant if such compromise or settlement (1) contains an unconditional release from all Liability of the Claimant and its Affiliates with respect to such Third Party Claim, (2) does not result in any Liability to or equitable relief against the Claimant and its Affiliates, (3) would not restrict the future activity of the Claimant or any of its Affiliates and (4) would not result in the admission or finding of a violation of Law by the Claimant or any of its Affiliates.

6.05. Survival.

(a) Claims for indemnification under ‎6.01(a)(i), 6.01(b)(i), ‎6.01(b)(ii), and ‎6.02(a) shall only be valid to the extent that such claims are made prior to the twelve (12) month anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Survival Period”). If an Indemnification Notice or Litigation Notice is provided with respect to such claim prior to the expiration of such period, then the applicable representations and/or warranties shall survive only as to such claim until such claim has been fully resolved.

(b) Claims arising under the other provisions of Sections ‎6.01 and ‎6.02, including, without limitation, Section ‎6.01(a)(iv), or from any breach of the Fundamental Representations may be made up to the applicable statute of limitation for such claim, without limitation.

(c) The Purchaser shall use its best efforts to (i) maintain the Policies for the Survival Period or (ii) add the Seller as insureds under Purchaser’s existing insurance policies of comparable limits and scope of coverage, and shall cooperate with the Seller in filing any claims thereunder should any such claims require indemnification pursuant to Section ‎6.01.

6.06. Additional Indemnification Provisions.

(a) The Seller indemnity obligations for Indemnity Losses arising under ‎ Sections ‎6.01(a)(i), 6.01(b)(i) or ‎6.01(b)(ii), shall not exceed 12.5% of the Greenlane Interests (the “Indemnification Cap”); provided, however, that the Indemnification Cap shall not apply to indemnification for Indemnity Losses the Purchaser Indemnified Party may suffer resulting from, arising out of, relating to, the breach of any of the following (the “Specified Provisions”); (i) the Fundamental Representations, (ii) the representations and warranties set forth in Section ‎4.06 (Tax Matters) or (iii) the covenants of the Seller contained in this Agreement, and no such Indemnity Losses shall be taken into account to determine whether the Indemnification Cap has been exceeded with respect to claims for indemnification not referred to in this proviso.

(b) No Indemnifying Party shall be required to indemnify applicable Indemnified Parties for Indemnity Losses arising under Sections ‎6.01(a)(i), 6.01(b)(i), or ‎6.01(b)(ii) as applicable, unless and until, and only to the extent that the aggregate amount of all such Indemnity Losses for which such Indemnified Parties are otherwise entitled to indemnification pursuant to this ‎Article VI exceeds an amount equal to 0.75% of the Greenlane Interests (the “Basket Amount”), following which the Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to recover all of their respective Indemnity Losses after the Basket Amount; provided, however, that the limitations in this ‎Section 6.06(a) shall not apply to Indemnity Losses from claims for indemnification arising out of the Specified Provisions.

(c) For purposes of this Section ‎6.06, (x) if any obligation to pay a claim for indemnification under this Article VI arises prior to the consummation of an IPO of Purchaser, then the value of the Greenlane Interests for purposes of determining the Indemnification Cap and Basket Amount shall be $9,760,000 and (y) if any claim for indemnification under this Article VI arises on or subsequent to the consummation of an IPO of Purchaser, then the value of the Greenlane Interests for purposes of determining the Indemnification Cap and Basket Amount shall be based upon Purchaser’s IPO valuation prior to the beginning of trading.

(d) For purposes of this ‎Article VI, any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty (and any Indemnity Losses arising therefrom or related thereto) shall be determined without regard to any materiality, “Material Adverse Effect” or similar qualification contained in or otherwise applicable to such representation or warranty.

6.07. Special Rule for Fraud. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in the event of any breach of a representation or warranty by any party hereto that constitutes a criminal, fraudulent, or otherwise intentionally wrongful action or omission, by or on behalf of the Seller, on the one hand, or the Purchaser, on the other hand, then (a) such representation or warranty shall survive indefinitely, and (b) the limitations set forth in ‎‎Section ‎6.06, as applicable, shall not apply to any Indemnity Loss that the Purchaser Indemnified Parties with respect to the Seller that committed the fraud or the Seller Indemnified Parties, as the case may be, may suffer, sustain or become subject to, as a result of, arising out of, relating to or in connection with any such breach.

6.08. Sole Remedy. Subject to Section ‎6.07, the right to indemnification under this ‎Article VI, subject to all of the terms, conditions and limitations hereof, shall constitute the sole and exclusive right and remedy available to any party hereto (or any specified third party) for any actual or threatened breach of this Agreement, and none of the parties hereto shall initiate or maintain any Proceeding against any other party hereto which is directly or indirectly related to any breach or threatened breach of this Agreement, except that any party may pursue legal or equitable relief against any other party for any claim based upon fraud or intentional misconduct by or on behalf of the party that committed such fraud or intentional misconduct.

7.02. Confidential Information.

(a) The Seller acknowledges and agrees that the Confidential Information of the Company is an Asset that the Purchaser will acquire pursuant to this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, “Confidential Information” shall mean the Company’s trade secrets, other Intellectual Property and other information regarding the Company, the Business and the other business operations of the Company, which information: (i) was used in the Business and was proprietary to, about or created by the Company (including the Company’s Personnel) for use in the Business; (ii) is used in the Business as of the Closing Date and is proprietary to, about or created by the Company (including the Company’s Personnel) for use in the Business; (iii) is designated and/or, in fact, treated as confidential by the Company; or (iv) is not generally known by any Persons other than Personnel. The Seller agrees to maintain the confidentiality of, and refrain from using or disclosing to any Person, all Confidential Information, except to the extent disclosure of any such information is required by Law or in connection with any claims, disputes or Proceedings against the Purchaser. Notwithstanding the foregoing, “Confidential Information” shall not include information which: (1) was in the public domain on the date hereof or comes into the public domain other than through the fault or negligence of the Seller; (2) was or is independently developed by the Seller after the Closing Date without making use of any Confidential Information; (3) is required to be disclosed during the course of pursuing or defending indemnification claims (or the matters underlying such indemnification claims) or in connection with any disputes between the Purchaser, on the one hand, and the Seller, on the other hand; or (4) is required to be disclosed pursuant to applicable Laws or regulations or the order of any court or Governmental Entity, provided that the Seller shall first notify the Purchaser and the Company of any such order and afford the Purchaser and/or the Company the opportunity to seek a protective order relating to any such disclosure.

(b) If the Seller or any of its Affiliates (other than the Company) is required by interrogatories, requests for information or documents, subpoenas or similar processes to disclose any Confidential Information, such Person shall provide the Purchaser with prompt prior written notice of such request or requirement so that the Purchaser may seek an appropriate protective order (and if the Purchaser seeks such an order, the Seller will, and will cause the Seller’s representatives to, provide such cooperation, at the expense of the Purchaser, as such the Purchaser shall reasonably request). If, in the absence of a protective order, the Seller or the Seller’s representative(s) is nonetheless required to disclose Confidential Information, the Seller or representative(s), as the case may be: (i) may, and will cause each of the Seller’s representatives to, disclose only that portion of the Confidential Information that they are legally compelled to disclose; and (ii) shall, and shall cause each of the Seller’s representatives to, at the request of the Purchaser, use its commercially reasonable efforts, at the expense of the Purchaser, to obtain assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to such Confidential Information.

The Seller shall, at its own expense, prepare and timely file any Tax Return or other document required to be filed by it (if any) with respect to such Taxes or fees to the extent permitted by applicable Law; provided, however that the Purchaser shall cooperate with the Seller in the preparation and filing of all such Tax Returns or other applicable documents for or with respect to Transfer Taxes, including timely signing and delivering such Tax Returns and documents as may be necessary or appropriate to file such Tax Returns or establish an exemption from (or otherwise reduce) Transfer Taxes.

The Seller shall revise, or cause to be revised, such Pre-Closing Income Tax Returns to reflect the Purchaser’s comments to such Pre-Closing Income Tax Returns, if any, prior to filing each such Pre-Closing Income Tax Return with the applicable Governmental Entity. The Company shall timely pay to the appropriate Governmental Entity the full amount of any Taxes due and payable by the Company with respect to such Pre-Closing Income Tax Returns. The Seller shall pay to the Purchaser no later than five (5) Business Days before the due date of such Pre-Closing Income Tax Return (taking into account any extension) the amount equal to the Taxes payable by the Company with respect to such Pre-Closing Income Tax Return.

(b) The Purchaser shall, at its expense, prepare and timely file, or cause to be prepared and timely filed, (i) all Tax Returns with respect to the Company for any Tax period ending on or prior to the Closing Date but that are required to be filed after the Closing Date (other than Pre-Closing Income Tax Returns, which are governed by Section ‎7.04(a)), and (ii) any Tax Return required to be filed by the Company for a Straddle Period (a “Straddle Period Tax Return”). All such Tax Returns shall be prepared and filed in a manner that is consistent with the prior practice of the Company, except as required by applicable Law. With respect to Taxes of the Company relating to a Straddle Period, the parties agree that the portion of such Tax that relates to the portion of such Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date shall (1) in the case of any Taxes other than Taxes based upon or related to income, receipts, profits, wages, capital, net worth or expenses, be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire Straddle Period multiplied by a fraction (A) the numerator of which is the number of days in the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date and (B) the denominator of which is the total number of days in the entire Straddle Period, and (2) in the case of any Tax based upon or related to income, receipts, profits, wages, capital, net worth or expenses, be determined as though the taxable year of the Company terminated at the close of business on the Closing Date. The Company shall pay to the Purchaser at least five (5) days before the filing of such Tax Return (taking into account any extension) the portion of the Taxes shown as due on such Tax Return (or, with respect to a Straddle Period Tax Return, the portion of the Taxes shown as due on such Tax Return that relate to the portion of such Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date (as determined pursuant to this Section ‎7.04(b))).

(b) The Purchaser shall have sole control of the conduct of all Tax Matters, including any conduct, control, settlement or compromise thereof; provided, however, that the Purchaser shall not settle or compromise any such Tax Matter without the prior written consent of the Seller (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

Effective as of the Closing, the Seller, on behalf of itself, and the Seller’s Affiliates and each of its and their respective heirs, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Releasing Parties”), hereby releases, acquits and forever discharges the Company, and any and all of its successors and assigns, together with all their present and former equity holders, directors, managers, officers and employees (collectively, the “Released Parties”), from any and all manner of claims, actions, suits, damages, demands and Liabilities whatsoever in Law or equity, whether known or unknown, liquidated or unliquidated, fixed, contingent, direct or indirect, which the Releasing Party ever had, has or may have against any of the Released Parties for, upon, or by reason of any matter, transaction, act, omission or thing whatsoever arising under or in connection with any of the Released Parties, from facts or circumstances existing from the beginning of time to and including the Closing Date, other than obligations arising under this Agreement or any transactions or documents contemplated thereby or executed in connection therewith.

7.08. Employees; Employee Benefits.

(a) The Purchaser may, in its sole and absolute discretion, make offers of employment to such Employees, on such terms and conditions, as the Purchaser shall determine (such Employees who accept the Purchaser’s offer of employment are hereinafter collectively referred to as “Transferred Employees”).

(b) No agreement, understanding or arrangement entered into by an Employee and the Company prohibits or restricts (or shall prohibit or restrict) an Employee who is subsequently employed by the Purchaser from disclosing Confidential Information of the Company to the Purchaser or its Affiliates after the Closing, or if any such agreements do prohibit or restrict disclosure, the Company hereby releases the Employees from such restrictions so as to allow disclosures to be made to the Purchaser after the Closing.

(c) The Seller and the Company shall be responsible for, and shall jointly and severally indemnify and hold harmless (as set forth in Article VII) the Purchaser from and against, any and all severance, termination, retention, “golden parachute,” unemployment compensation or any similar payment or other Liabilities or obligations with respect to any Employee attributable to the termination of their employment with the Company, relating to the period of time that the Company employed any Employee up to the Closing Date, whether pursuant to corporate policy, any benefit plan, or by Law (domestic or foreign and including, but not limited to, any liability under the WARN Act and the provisions of Section 4980B of the Code and Part 6 of the Subtitle B of Title I of ERISA), and whether or not pursuant to individual agreement or commitment or group plan.

By way of clarification and not limitation, the terms and conditions of this Section ‎10.15 shall survive the Closing.
