ARTICLE VI

INDEMNIFICATION

6.1 Obligations of Seller. Seller agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Buyer, its Affiliates and their respective directors, shareholders, officers, employees, affiliates, agents and assigns (collectively, “Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all Losses suffered, sustained, incurred, directly or indirectly, as a result of:

(a) any material inaccuracy in or material breach of any of the representations or warranties of Seller in this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or in any other agreement or certificate delivered or provided by Seller in connection with this Agreement or the Transaction;

(b) any material breach of any covenant or agreement on the part of Seller set forth in this Agreement, other Transaction Documents or any agreement or certificate executed and delivered or provided by Seller in connection with this Agreement or the Transaction;

(c) any Liability of Seller, any Subsidiary or any of its or their respective Associates or Affiliates which are not Assumed Liabilities;


Confidential		8/30/2010

(d) any Action in connection with the Designated Contracts;

(e) any Action by the other shareholder(s) of the China JV; or

(f) any Excluded Assets or Excluded Liabilities.

6.2 Audit Matters. Seller shall have the responsibility for, and the right to control, at Seller’s expense, the audit (and disposition thereof) of any Tax Return relating to periods ending on or prior to the Closing Date and shall have the right to participate in and approve the disposition of the audit of any Tax Return relating to the periods ending after the Closing Date if and to the extent that such audit or disposition thereof could give rise to a claim for indemnification hereunder. Buyer shall have the right directly or through its designated representatives, to review in advance and comment upon all submissions made in the course of audits or appeals thereof to any Governmental Entity relating to periods ending (or treated by this Agreement as ending) on or prior to the Closing Date and to approve the disposition of any audit adjustment with respect to such periods if such disposition will or might reasonably be expected to result in an increase in Taxes of Buyer or any Subsidiary for any period beginning at or after the Closing or if any Subsidiary is jointly or severally liable as to such return as a result of its inclusion in such group prior to the Closing Date.

6.3 Procedure.

(a) Notice. In the event that an Indemnified Party seeks any indemnification with respect to any Loss, Buyer shall give notice thereof to Seller (the “Indemnifying Party”) as promptly as practicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) no Indemnified Party shall have any obligation to give any notice of any asserted liability by a third party unless such assertion is in writing, and (ii) the rights of any Indemnified Party to be indemnified in respect of any Loss resulting from the asserted liability shall not be adversely affected by the Indemnified Party’s failure to give or delay in giving notice unless (and then only to the extent that) the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced thereby.

(b) Defense. If any claim, demand or liability is asserted by any third party against any Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party shall upon the written request of the Indemnified Party, defend any action or proceeding brought against the Indemnified Party in respect of matters within the scope of an Indemnifiable Claim, but the Indemnified Party shall have the right to conduct and control the defense, compromise or settlement of any Indemnifiable Claim if the Indemnified Party chooses to do so, on behalf of and for the account and risk of the Indemnifying Party who shall be bound by the result so obtained to the extent provided herein. If, after a request to defend any action or proceeding, the Indemnifying Party neglects or refuses to defend the Indemnified Party, a recovery against the latter suffered by it in good faith, is conclusive in its favor against the Indemnifying Party; provided, however that, if the Indemnifying Party has not received reasonable notice of the action or proceeding against the Indemnified Party, or is not allowed to control its defense, judgment against the Indemnified Party is only presumptive evidence against the Indemnifying Party. The Parties shall cooperate in the defense of all third party claims which may give rise to Indemnifiable Claims hereunder.


Confidential		8/30/2010

6.4 Payment; Tax Adjustments.

(a) For all claims that are within the scope of Section 6.1 Buyer shall offset the amount of Losses in respect of such claim against the Holdback Amount.

(b) Any indemnity payments otherwise due and payable under this Article VI shall be (a) decreased to the extent of any net actual reduction of Tax Liability that is actually realized by the Indemnified Party upon payment of an indemnifiable loss and (b) increased to the extent of any net actual increase in Tax Liability that is actually imposed on the Indemnified Party upon the receipt of an indemnity payment pursuant to this Article VI (including any increase thereof pursuant to this Section 6.4).

6.5 Survival of Representations and Warranties. Each covenant and agreement contained in this Agreement or in any agreement or other document delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall survive the Closing and be enforceable until such covenant or agreement has been fully performed. All representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or in any other Transaction Documents delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall survive the Closing until the expiration of the Holdback Period, and shall thereafter expire, except that any representation or warranty with respect to which a claim has been made for a breach thereon prior to such date shall survive until such claim is resolved. The limitations on survival set forth in this Section 6.5 shall not apply to (a) the representations and warranties set forth in the following Sections of Schedule 4.1: 1 (Organization and Related Matters), 2 (Capitalization), 3 (Authorization; No Conflicts), which shall survive without limitation, (b) the representations and warranties set forth in the following Sections of Schedule 4.1: 7 (Tax and Other Returns and Reports), 9 (Indebtedness for Borrowed Money), 16 (Employee Benefits), and 21 (No Brokers or Finders), all of which shall survive until ninety (90) days after expiration of the applicable statute of limitations, including waivers and extensions thereof, or (c) claims based on criminal matters, fraud or intentional misrepresentation which shall survive without limitation.

6.6 Limitations on Indemnification. Notwithstanding anything contrary in this Agreement, Seller shall not be liable for indemnification for any Loss of an Indemnified Party to the extent such Loss exceeds the Holdback Amount (the “Seller’s Cap”); provided, however, that the Seller’s Cap shall not apply with respect to any indemnification obligation of Seller arising out of, relating to or resulting from bona fide claims by Buyer based on Losses caused by criminal matters, fraud, willful or intentional misrepresentation or breach, or gross negligence of the Seller.

6.7 Offset. If Buyer is entitled to any payment (whether in Equity Securities, cash or otherwise) from Seller under any arrangement between the Parties, Buyer shall have the right (but not the obligation), in addition to other rights and remedies (whether under this Agreement or applicable Law), to offset any such payment against the Holdback Amount.

ARTICLE VII

TERMINATION OF OBLIGATIONS; SURVIVAL

7.1 Termination of Agreement. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, this Agreement and the Contemplated Transactions shall terminate if the Closing does not occur on or before close of business on August 31, 2010, unless extended by mutual consent in writing of Buyer and Seller and may otherwise be terminated at any time before the Closing as follows and in no other manner:

(a) Mutual Consent. By mutual consent in writing of Buyer and Seller.

(b) Certain Conditions Not Met. By Buyer or Seller if any event occurs or condition exists which would render impossible the satisfaction of one or more conditions to the obligations of Buyer or Seller, respectively, to consummate the Contemplated Transactions as set forth in Sections 3.1 and 3.2 or 3.3, as applicable.

(c) Material Breach. By Buyer or Seller if there has been a material misrepresentation or material breach on the part of the other Party in its representations, warranties or covenants set forth herein; provided, however, that if such breach or misrepresentation is susceptible to cure, Seller or Buyer, as the case may be, shall have ten (10) Business Days after receipt of notice from the other Party of its intention to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 7.1(c) if such misrepresentation or breach continues in which to cure such breach or misrepresentation before the other Party may so terminate this Agreement.

7.2 Effect of Termination. In the event that this Agreement shall be terminated pursuant to Section 7.1, all further obligations of the Parties under this Agreement shall terminate without further liability of any Party to another; provided that the provisions contained in Article VI (General) shall survive any such termination. A termination under Section 7.1 shall not relieve any Party of any Liability for a breach of, or for any misrepresentation under this Agreement, or be deemed to constitute a waiver of any available remedy (including specific performance if available) for any such breach or misrepresentation.

8.18 Severability.
