In the event that the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third Party Claim, subject to Section 6.5(b), it shall have the right to take such action as it deems necessary to avoid, dispute, defend, appeal or make counterclaims pertaining to any such Third Party Claim in the name and on behalf of the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall have the right, at its own cost and expense, to participate in the defense of any Third Party Claim with counsel selected by it subject to the Indemnifying Party’s right to control the defense thereof. If the Indemnifying Party elects not to compromise or defend such Third Party Claim or fails to promptly notify the Indemnified Party in writing of its election to defend as provided in this Agreement, the Indemnified Party may, subject to Section 6.5(b), pay, compromise, defend such Third Party Claim and seek indemnification for any and all Losses based upon, arising from or relating to such Third Party Claim. Seller and Buyer shall cooperate with each other in all reasonable respects in connection with the defense of any Third Party Claim, including making available records relating to such Third Party Claim and furnishing, without expense (other than reimbursement of actual out-of-pocket expenses) to the defending party, management employees of the non-defending party as may be reasonably necessary for the preparation of the defense of such Third Party Claim.

(b) Settlement of Third Party Claims. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall not enter into settlement of any Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, except as provided in this Section 6.5(b). If a firm offer is made to settle a Third Party Claim without leading to liability or the creation of a financial or other obligation on the part of the Indemnified Party and provides, in customary form, for the unconditional release of each Indemnified Party from all Liabilities and obligations in connection with such Third Party Claim and the Indemnifying Party desires to accept and agree to such offer, the Indemnifying Party shall give written notice to that effect to the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnified Party fails to consent to such firm offer within 10 days after its receipt of such notice, the Indemnified Party may continue to contest or defend such Third Party Claim and in such event, the maximum liability of the Indemnifying Party as to such Third Party Claim shall not exceed the amount of such settlement offer. If the Indemnified Party fails to consent to such firm offer and also fails to assume defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party may settle the Third Party Claim upon the terms set forth in such firm offer to settle such Third Party Claim. If the Indemnified Party has assumed the defense pursuant to Section 6.5(a), it shall not agree to any settlement without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

 

(c) Direct Claims. Any Action by an Indemnified Party on account of a Loss which does not result from a Third Party Claim (a “Direct Claim”) shall be asserted by the Indemnified Party giving the Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice thereof, but in any event not later than 30 days after the Indemnified Party becomes aware of such Direct Claim. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party forfeits rights or defenses by reason of such failure. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the Direct Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have 30 days after its receipt of such notice to respond in writing to such Direct Claim. The Indemnified Party shall allow the Indemnifying Party and its professional advisors to investigate the matter or circumstance alleged to give rise to the Direct Claim, and whether and to what extent any amount is payable in respect of the Direct Claim and the Indemnified Party shall assist the Indemnifying Party’s investigation by giving such information and assistance (including access to the Indemnified Party’s premises and personnel and the right to examine and copy any accounts, documents or records) as the Indemnifying Party or any of its professional advisors may reasonably request. If the Indemnifying Party does not so respond within such 30 day period, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have rejected such claim, in which case the Indemnified Party shall be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to the Indemnified Party on the terms and subject to the provisions of this Agreement.

 

6.6 Payments. Once a Loss is agreed to by the Indemnifying Party or finally adjudicated to be payable pursuant to this ARTICLE VI, the Indemnifying Party shall satisfy its obligations within 15 Business Days of such agreement or final, non-appealable adjudication by wire transfer of immediately available funds. The parties hereto agree that, should an Indemnifying Party not make full payment of any such obligations within such 15 Business Day period, any amount payable shall accrue interest from and including the date of agreement of the Indemnifying Party or final, non-appealable adjudication to and including the date such payment has been made at a rate per annum equal to five percent. Such interest shall be calculated daily on the basis of a 365 day year and the actual number of days elapsed.

 

6.7 Tax Treatment of Indemnification Payments. All indemnification payments made under this Agreement shall be treated by the parties as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Law.

 

6.8 Exclusive Remedies. The parties acknowledge and agree that their sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all claims for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement, shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this ARTICLE VI. In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted under Law, any and all rights, claims and causes of action for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement it may have against the other parties hereto and their Affiliates and each of their respective Representatives arising under or based upon any Law, except pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this ARTICLE VI.

1. The Assignor does hereby sell, assign, transfer, covey and deliver to the Assignee, its successors and permitted assigns, all of the Assignor’s right, title and interest, in and to the Marks, and all of the goodwill of the business associated with the Marks, together with that portion of Assignor’s business to which the Marks pertain, and all registrations and pending applications for the Marks, any renewals of the registrations, in all countries throughout the world, for the Assignee’s own use and enjoyment, and for the use and enjoyment of the Assignee’s successors, assigns or other legal representatives, as fully and entirely as the same would have been held and enjoyed by the Assignor if this Trademark Assignment had not been made together with all causes of action for any and all previously occurring infringement of the rights being assigned and the right to receive and retain the proceeds relating to those infringements.

 

2. The Assignor hereby requests the Commissioner for Trademarks at the United States Patent and Trademark Office (the “Commissioner”), as well as his or her counterparts at the corresponding entities or agencies in any country or jurisdiction that may exercise authority over any of the Marks, to issue any and all trademark registrations resulting from applications among the Marks or derived therefrom to the Assignee as assignee of the entire interest therein.

EXHIBIT D

NON-COMPETITION AGREEMENT

 

See attached.

 

D-1

 

 

NON-COMPETE AGREEMENT

 

THIS NON-COMPETE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made, executed and entered into effective as of May__, 2019 (the “Effective Date”), by and between Eric Orme, an Indiana resident (“Orme”), and Rubicon DTP, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Rubicon”) (collectively referred to herein as “Parties” and individually as a “Party”).

 

Whereas, Rubicon is purchasing certain assets from Wellfount, Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Wellfount”), pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement dated on even date herewith (“Purchase Agreement”);

 

Whereas, Orme is the Chief Executive Officer of Wellfount;

 

Whereas, the Purchase Agreement obligates Wellfount to cause Orme to execute and deliver this Agreement to Rubicon, and Rubicon would be unwilling to consummate the Purchase Agreement without this Agreement being executed and delivered; and

 

Whereas, all capitalized terms herein shall have the same meaning as defined in the Purchase Agreement.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, as a material inducement to Rubicon to purchase the assets of Wellfount as provided in the Purchase Agreement, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows:

 

1. Non-Solicitation. For a period of three (3) years from the Effective Date, Orme agrees not to directly, indirectly, or in any manner, in any capacity, whether as an employee, owner, consultant, agent, volunteer or otherwise, solicit the discharge medication and direct to patient pharmacy services business of any of Rubicon’s customers.

 

2. Non-Compete. For a period of three (3) years from the Effective Date, Orme agrees not to directly, indirectly, or in any manner own, operate, or assist, in any capacity, whether as an employee, owner, consultant, agent, volunteer or otherwise, any discharge medication program or direct to patient pharmacy services to any long-term care facility or assisted living facility.

 

3. Reduction in Effects of Agreement. If any of the provisions or covenants contained in this Agreement are hereafter construed by any tribunal of appropriate jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, in any jurisdiction, the same shall not affect the remainder of the provisions of this Agreement or the enforceability of such remainder of the provisions of this Agreement, or the enforceability of the entirety of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction. If any of the provisions or covenants contained in this Agreement are held to be unenforceable, in any jurisdiction, because of the duration or geographical scope thereof, then the Parties agree that the tribunal making such determination shall reduce the duration or geographical scope of such provision or covenant, and that, in its reduced form, such provision or covenant shall be enforceable; provided, that the determination of such tribunal shall not affect the enforceability of any provisions of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction.

 

D-2

 

 

4. Indiana Law. This Agreement constitutes an Indiana contract and shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Indiana.

 

5. Venue and Jurisdiction. The Parties to this Agreement consent and agree that the exclusive venue and jurisdiction for all legal proceedings with respect to this Agreement and the enforcement of this Agreement shall be in the courts located in Marion County, Indiana. Any judgment of such court shall automatically be enforceable in any other state or jurisdiction.

 

6. No Waiver. No term or condition of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been waived, nor shall there be any estoppel against the enforcement of any of the provisions of this Agreement, except by way of a written instrument of the Party charged with such waiver or estoppel. No such written waiver or document providing such estoppel shall be deemed to be a continuing waiver or to provide a continuing estoppel against the enforcement of any of the provisions of this Agreement unless so stated in the written document. Any such waiver shall operate only as to the specific term or condition waived and shall not constitute a waiver of such term or condition for the future or as to any other act other than as specifically waived in writing by the document containing the waiver.

 

7. Adequate Consideration. Orme acknowledges that he has fully read this Agreement and fully understands this Agreement and its implications and has had this Agreement and all of its implications explained to him by an attorney selected by him. Orme further agrees that the payment of the Purchase Price provided for by the Purchase Agreement, provides more than fair and adequate consideration for the agreements made by him by way of this Agreement.

 

8. No Compulsion. Orme acknowledges, understands and agrees that he is under no compulsion to enter into this Agreement but that Rubicon would be unwilling to pay the Purchase Price provided for by the Purchase Agreement in the absence of this Agreement.

 

9. Attorney’s Fees. If either Party to this Agreement shall seek to enforce, by legal or equitable proceedings, against the other Party to this Agreement, this Agreement or any rights, duties or obligations arising under this Agreement, or any claim for damages for breach of this Agreement, then the prevailing Party in such proceedings (whether such prevailing Party is the plaintiff or defendant and whether such Party prevails in full or substantially as to the relief sought or opposed by such Party) shall recover from the other Party to such proceedings, in addition to all other sums and remedies to which such prevailing Party would otherwise be entitled, all of such prevailing Party’s reasonable costs, expenses and attorney’s fees incurred in such proceedings and in the preparation for and bringing of and in the defense or prosecution of such proceedings, and shall have judgment therefor in addition to judgment for all other sums and remedies to which such prevailing Party would otherwise be entitled.

 

D-3

 

 

10. Specifically Enforceable. Orme acknowledges that a breach or threatened breach by him of this Agreement or any of the provisions of this Agreement will result in or could result in substantial and continuing injury to Rubicon, for which there would be no adequate remedy at law, and that the damages that would result from a failure by him or threatened failure by him to comply with any of the provisions of this Agreement would be substantial, but that the amount of such damages might be difficult, if not impossible, to ascertain. Therefore, Orme agrees that if he fails to comply with, or threatens to fail to comply with any of the provisions of this Agreement, then Rubicon shall be entitled to such injunctive and other relief, including temporary restraining orders and preliminary injunctions, all without the necessity of posting a bond, as may be necessary or appropriate to cause Orme to comply with the provisions of this Agreement. Such injunctive relief shall be in addition to any right to damages to which Rubicon would be entitled.

 

11. Expiration at End of Restricted Term/Extension of Restricted Term. All of the restrictions and obligations imposed upon Orme pursuant to paragraph 1 or paragraph 2 of this Agreement shall expire three (3) years from the Effective Date, without the need for any action by any party to this Agreement or any third party; provided, however, if Orme shall breach or threaten to breach any of the provisions of either paragraph 1 or paragraph 2 of this Agreement, then the period of time binding Orme under this Agreement shall be tolled from the commencement of such breach or threatened breach until cured by Orme.
