(b)

Notwithstanding anything in Section 8.1(a) to the contrary, Seller will not be obligated to make any indemnification payment to any Buyer Indemnified Parties (an “Indemnification Payment”) unless and until the aggregate amount of Damages exceeds the sum of $50,000, (in which case the Buyer Indemnified Persons shall be entitled to seek compensation for all such Damages) and in no event shall the total amount of Indemnification Payments made by the Seller exceed an amount equal to One Million Dollars ($1,000,000 (the “Cap”); provided that the Cap shall not apply to claims of fraud or intentional misrepresentation of a material fact.  All indemnification payments shall be made in shares of Buyer Stock with each share valued at $8.00 per Share.

(i)

Any breach of any representation or warranty of Buyer contained in this Agreement or any Buyer closing document; and

(ii)

the breach by Buyer of any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement or any Buyer closing document.




22





(b)

Notwithstanding anything in Section 8.2(a) to the contrary, Buyer will not be obligated to make any indemnification payment to any Seller Indemnified Parties (a “Buyer Indemnification Payment”) unless and until the aggregate amount of Damages exceeds the sum of $50,000 (in which case Seller Indemnified parties shall be entitled to seek compensation for all such damages) and in no event shall the total amount of Indemnification Payments made by the Seller exceed an amount equal to the Cap provided that such Cap shall not apply to claims of fraud or intentional misrepresentation of material fact.  All indemnification payments shall be made in shares of FRB Stock with each share valued at $8 per share.

(a)

Within ten (10) business days after receipt by a potentially indemnified party hereunder of any actual or potential Damages, such potentially indemnified party shall, give written notice to the Buyer or Seller, as the case may be (in either case the “Indemnifying Party”).  The failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall relieve it of liability that it may have to any indemnified party with respect to such action only if and to the extent the failure to so notify has prejudiced the indemnifying party.  The Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in all negotiations and discussions with the resolution of such Damages and, to the extent that it may elect, to assume primary responsibility therefor or the defense thereof and after written notice from the Indemnifying Party to such indemnified party of acceptance of primary responsibility or defense shall not be liable for any reasonable and documented legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with negotiations or the defense thereof, other than reasonable costs of investigation unless, in the written opinion of counsel to any indemnified party (which counsel shall be reasonably acceptable to the Indemnifying Party), the interests of any indemnifying party may conflict with the interests of the indemnified party.

(b)

The indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any and all such actions and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall not be at the expense of the Indemnifying Party if the Indemnifying Party has assumed primary responsibility therefor or the defense of such action with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party;

(c)

If the Indemnifying Party elects to assume primary responsibility for or the defense of such action, no compromise or settlement thereof may be affected by the indemnified party without the Indemnifying Party's written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), provided however, that the Indemnifying Party is not required to consent to any settlement unless Indemnifying Party receives as part of such settlement a legally binding and enforceable unconditional satisfaction and release of all claimed liabilities or obligations in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party.  If notice is timely given to an indemnifying party and it does not, within twenty (20) days after the indemnified party's notice is received, give notice to the indemnified party of the Indemnifying Party's election to assume primary responsibility therefor or the defense thereof, the Indemnifying Party shall only be bound by any settlement of the claim for Damages effected by the indemnified party.  (i) such settlement does not require the indemnified party to admit of any wrongdoing or take or refrain from taking any action, (ii) is limited to monetary damages; and (iii) the indemnified party receives as part of such settlement an unconditional release of all claims pertaining thereto.  Upon its request of any amount to be paid by an Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Section 8, the indemnified party shall deliver to the Indemnifying Party such documents as it may reasonably request assigning to the Indemnifying Party any and all rights the indemnified party may have against third parties with respect to the claims for which indemnification is being received.




23





(d)

Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, Seller shall not be entitled to assume or direct the defense or settlement of any Proceeding if the amount of any Damages with respect to such proceeding is reasonably expected to exceed the Cap after taking into account all liabilities which the Seller have, has, have had or could reasonably be anticipated to have by reason of this Article 8, whether in respect of such proceeding and/or the events or circumstances giving rise thereto and/or in respect of all other claims and/or indemnification obligations.  In such event, Buyer shall be entitled to control the defense and settlement of any such proceeding, and, without limiting the provisions of Section 8 hereof, the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for all Damages in connection thereunder.

(a)

Neither Seller nor Buyer shall have any right whatsoever to assert a claim against the other party, and except as otherwise provided herein, all rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall terminate without any liability of any party to any other party, unless the circumstances giving rise to such termination were caused by either: (a) the other party’s failure to comply with any of its material obligations set forth herein, or (b) the other party’s material breach of a representation or warranty contained in Section 3 or Section 4 hereof, in which event termination shall not be deemed or construed as limiting or denying any legal or equitable right or remedy of the non breaching party.  Notwithstanding anything in the forgoing to the contrary, in the event of a termination of this Agreement by Seller under Section 9.1(c) or 9.1(d) (only if Buyer has failed to fulfill its obligations hereunder or has been the cause or the result of the failure to consummate the transactions contemplated hereunder) without a Closing, the Escrow Deposit shall be promptly disbursed to Seller.  In the event of a termination of this Agreement by Buyer under Section 9.1(b) or (d) (only if Seller has failed to fulfill its obligations hereunder or has been the cause or the result of the failure to consummate the transactions contemplated hereunder) without a Closing, the Escrow Deposit shall be promptly disbursed to Buyer.  In the event of a termination of this Agreement by Buyer and Seller under Section 9.1(a), one-half (50%) of the Escrow Deposit shall be promptly disbursed to Buyer and one-half (50%) of the Escrow Deposit shall be promptly disbursed to Seller.
