(A)If the Purchase Price as adjusted pursuant to this Section 2.2(b)(v) (the “Final Purchase Price”) is greater than the Initial Payment, the Buyer shall pay to each Seller Party such Person’s Pro Rata Share of an amount in cash equal to the Final Purchase Price minus the Initial Payment.

(B)If the Final Purchase Price is less than the Initial Payment (such difference, the “Adjustment Amount”), then Buyer shall be entitled to withdraw an amount in cash equal to the Adjustment Amount from the Special Escrow Fund in accordance with Section 11.2(c) of this Agreement and such amount shall be deemed a decrease to the Purchase Price.

All payments pursuant to this Section 2.2(b)(v) shall be made in cash or same day funds within five (5) business days after the determination of the Final Purchase Price.

2.3Tax Withholding.

(i)state that the Indemnified Party has paid or properly accrued Losses, or reasonably anticipates that it may or will incur liability for Losses, for which such Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement; and

(ii)specify in reasonable detail, to the extent available, each individual item of Loss included in the amount so stated, the date (if any) such item was paid or properly accrued, the basis for any anticipated liability and the nature of the misrepresentation, default, breach of warranty or breach of covenant or claim to which each such item is related and, to the extent computable, the computation of the amount to which such Indemnified Party claims to be entitled hereunder.

(b)In case the Seller Parties shall object to the indemnification of an Indemnified Party in respect of any claim or claims specified in any Claim Certificate (other than claims with respect to the Special Escrow which procedures are specified in Sections 2.2 and 11.2(c) hereof), the Seller Parties shall, within thirty (30) days after receipt by the Seller Parties of such Claim Certificate, deliver to the Indemnified Party a single written notice executed by both Seller Parties to such effect and the Indemnified Party shall, within the 30-day period beginning on the date of receipt by the Indemnified Party of such written objection, attempt in good faith to agree upon the rights of the respective parties with respect to each of such claims to which the Seller Parties shall have so objected. If the Indemnified Party and the Seller Parties shall succeed in reaching agreement with respect to any of such claims, the Indemnified Party and the Seller Parties shall promptly prepare and sign a memorandum setting forth such agreement which shall be binding on the Indemnified Party and both Seller Parties. Should the Indemnified Party and the Seller Parties be unable to agree as to any particular item or items or amount or amounts, then the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to pursue its available remedies for resolving its claim for indemnification.

(c)Third Party Claims. Promptly after the assertion by any third party of any claim against any Indemnified Party (a “Third Party Claim”) that, in the judgment of such Indemnified Party, may result in the incurrence by such Indemnified Party of Losses for which such Indemnified Party would be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement, such Indemnified Party shall deliver to the Seller Parties a Claim Certificate; provided, that no delay on the part of the Indemnified Party in notifying the Seller Parties shall relieve the Seller Parties of any liability or obligations hereunder, except to the extent that the Seller Parties have been materially prejudiced thereby, and then only to such extent. The Indemnified Party shall have the right in its sole discretion to conduct the defense of any such Third Party Claim; provided, that the Seller Parties shall not be liable to indemnify any Indemnified Party for any settlement of any such Third Party Claim effected without the prior written consent of the Seller Parties, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. In the event an Indemnified Party has requested the consent of the Seller Parties to a settlement of a Third Party Claim and

- 57 -

the Indemnified Party has not received a written consent or written objection, in each case executed in a single document by both Seller Parties, within three (3) Business Day (or such shorter time which would not unreasonably delay or prejudice the Third Party Claim) then the Indemnified Party, in its sole discretion shall be entitled to proceed with the settlement of such Third Party Claim and shall be entitled to indemnification for the amounts of any Loss relating thereto. If any such action or claim is settled with the prior written consent of the Seller Parties, or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff in any such action, the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to indemnification for the amount of any Loss relating thereto.

(d)Claims for Losses specified in any Claim Certificate to which both Seller Parties did not object in a single writing executed by both Seller Parties within thirty (30) days of receipt of such Claim Certificate, claims for Losses covered by a memorandum of agreement of the nature described in Section 11.5(b) and claims for Losses the validity and amount of which have been the subject of resolution by arbitration or of a final non-appealable judicial determination are hereinafter referred to, collectively, as “Agreed Claims.” The Indemnified Party shall be entitled to payment for any Agreed Claims within ten (10) Business Days of the determination of the amount of any such Agreed Claims.

11.6No Subrogation. Following the Closing, neither the Seller Party shall have any right of indemnification, contribution or subrogation against the Company with respect to any indemnification made by or on behalf of any Seller Party under Section 11.3 if the Closing and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated.

11.7Tax Effecting Indemnification Payment. To the extent that any amount paid or payable to Buyer under Section 11.3 is subject to Tax, the Seller Parties shall pay an additional amount to Buyer such that, after payment of Tax on such amounts, Buyer will have, or will have received a net amount equal to the amount that Buyer would have received under Section 11.3 by the Seller Parties if the amount had not been subject to Tax.

11.8Purchase Price Adjustment. The Buyer, the Company and the Seller Parties agree to treat each indemnification payment pursuant to this Article XI as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for all Tax purposes and shall take no position contrary thereto unless required to do so by applicable Tax Law pursuant to a determination as defined in Section 1313(a) of the Code.
