Buyer’s indemnification obligation pursuant to Section 12.4(b)(iii) each shall survive indefinitely (or if indefinite survival is not permitted by law, then for the maximum period permitted by applicable law). Each party hereto shall be entitled to rely upon the representations and warranties of the other party set forth in this Agreement.

12.4.  Indemnification

(i) any breach of any representation or warranty or the inaccuracy of any representation, made by any Selling Party in or pursuant to Section V of this Agreement (after giving effect to any accepted or waived supplement to the disclosure schedules made by Seller on or prior to the Closing Date) or any of the Ancillary Agreements;
 
(ii) any breach of any covenant or agreement made by any Selling Party in or pursuant to this Agreement or any of the Ancillary Agreements;

(iv) the Client Acquisition Agreement.
 
(b) From and after the Closing, Buyer shall indemnify, defend and save and hold harmless the Selling Parties, their Affiliates and subsidiaries, and their respective Representatives from and against any and all Losses incurred in connection with, arising out of, resulting from or incident to (i) any breach of any representation or warranty or the inaccuracy of any representation made by Buyer in or pursuant to Section VI of this Agreement (after giving effect to any accepted or waived supplement to the disclosure schedules made by Buyer on or prior to the Closing Date) or any of the Ancillary Agreements; (ii) any breach of any covenant or agreement made by Buyer in or pursuant to this Agreement or any of the Ancillary Agreements; or (iii) any Assumed Liability.
 
34

(c) Notwithstanding any other provision herein contained, Buyer may (but shall not be required to), at any time during the applicable indemnity period and after compliance with Section 12.4(d), set-off against the Hold Back any amounts for which the Selling Parties are required to indemnify Buyer if and to the extent the Selling Parties have not previously paid any such amount. Buyer shall promptly notify Seller in writing with respect to any Hold Back applied to Losses, including reasonable detail concerning the facts or allegations related thereto. In the event that Buyer has notified Seller of a matter requiring indemnification hereunder, and such matter is not resolved prior to the Hold Back Expiration Date, Buyer may retain the reasonably estimated amount of the Losses related to such Claim until the Claim is resolved and paid. Upon such resolution and payment, such part of the Hold Back otherwise disbursable to Seller then held and not applied to such Losses shall be immediately paid to Seller.
 
(d) If a Claim for Losses is to be made by a party entitled to indemnification hereunder against the indemnifying party, the party claiming such indemnification shall give written notice (a “Claim Notice”) to the indemnifying party as soon as practicable after the party entitled to indemnification becomes aware of any fact, condition or event which may give rise to Losses for which indemnification may be sought under this Section 12.4; provided, however, if any Action is filed against any party entitled to the benefit of and seeking indemnity hereunder, the applicable Claim Notice shall be given to the indemnifying party as promptly as practicable (and in any event within ten (10) days after the service of the citation or summons). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the failure of any indemnified party to give timely notice hereunder shall not affect rights to indemnification hereunder, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is actually prejudiced by such failure. The parties agree to resolve disputes relating to any Claim Notice pursuant to the provisions in Section 13.12.
 
(e) After receiving a Claim Notice relating to a Claim by or against any third party, the indemnifying party shall be entitled, upon written notice to the indemnified party, at its own cost, risk and expense, (i) to take control of the defense and investigation of such lawsuit or action, (ii) to employ and engage attorneys of its own choice to handle and defend the same (unless the named parties to such Action include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and the indemnified party has been advised in writing by counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to such indemnified party that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, in which event the indemnified party shall be entitled, at the indemnifying party’s cost, risk and expense, to separate counsel of its own choosing), and (iii) to compromise or settle such claim, which compromise or settlement shall be made only with the written consent of the indemnified party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. In such circumstance, the indemnified party may, at its own cost, participate in the investigation, trial and defense of such lawsuit or action and any appeal arising therefrom. If the indemnifying party fails to assume the defense of such claim within twenty (20) days after receipt of the Claim Notice, the indemnified party against which such claim has been asserted will (upon delivering notice to such effect to the indemnifying party) have the right to undertake, at the indemnifying party’s cost and expense, the defense, compromise or settlement of such claim on behalf of and for the account and risk of the indemnifying party; provided, however, that such Claim shall not be compromised or settled without the written consent of the indemnifying party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. In the event the indemnified party assumes the defense of the claim, the indemnified party will keep the indemnifying party reasonably informed of the progress of any such defense, compromise or settlement. The parties shall cooperate in all reasonable respects with each other in the investigation, trial and defense of any such claim for Losses or Action and any appeal arising therefrom.
 
35

12.5.  Treatment of Payments. It is the intent of the parties that any amounts paid under Section 12.4 will represent an adjustment of the Purchase Price, and the parties will report such payments consistent with such intent.
 
12.6.  Non-Solicitation of Employees. The parties hereto agree that for a period of (i) two (2) years from the date of this Agreement, neither Seller nor any of its Affiliates will solicit, (or cause to be solicited) the employment of any Transferred Person who is then employed by Buyer or its Affiliates, and (ii) for a period of three (3) years from the date of this Agreement, neither Seller nor any of its Affiliates will solicit (or cause to be solicited) the employment of any Person who is then employed by Buyer in the Business.
 
12.7.  Exclusive Remedy. The parties hereby acknowledge and agree that, the sole and exclusive remedy of the parties with respect to any and all post-Closing Claims (other than any Claim arising for injunctive relief out of any alleged breach of Section 12.6 (Non-solicitation of Employees) or alleging fraud or intentional misrepresentation) relating to or arising under this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be indemnification as provided in Section 12.4.
 
12.8.  Goldberg Guarantee. As a material inducement to Buyer to enter into this Agreement, Goldberg hereby guarantees to Buyer the full and prompt performance of all of the obligations and undertakings of FC under this Agreement prior to and after Closing, including, without limitation, the accuracy of the representations and warranties in Section V and the performance of FC’s pre and post-Closing covenants hereunder.
 
(a) Goldberg’s obligations hereunder constitute the legal and valid obligations of Goldberg and are unconditional irrespective of (i) the absence of any attempt by or on behalf of Buyer to enforce its rights under this Agreement against FC or any other Selling Party, (ii) any bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law of any jurisdiction or any proceeding or condition hereunder or with respect thereto or (iii) any other occurrence or circumstance whatsoever, whether similar or dissimilar to the foregoing, that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable defense or discharge of the Liabilities of Goldberg or that might otherwise limit recourse against Goldberg except to the extent any defense which FC may have had is available to Goldberg. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (1) any failure of a condition contained in this Agreement or of the Buyer to comply with the Agreement (whether such breach results from Fraud, intentional misrepresentation or otherwise) which would relieve FC of its obligations under the Agreement shall likewise relieve Goldberg of his obligations hereunder; and (2) Goldberg shall be entitled to the benefit of any defenses, limitations, caps or disclaimers of damages that may be available to FC under this Agreement.
 
(b) The obligations of Goldberg hereunder shall continue in full force and effect in the event that the Closing does not occur; provided, however, that such obligations shall automatically terminate to the extent FC is finally relieved of its obligations hereunder.

13.8.  Severability. In the event that any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement or in any other instrument referred to herein, shall, for any reason, be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, then to the maximum extent permitted by law, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Agreement or any other such instrument.

It is understood and agreed that the specification of any dollar amount in the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or the inclusion of any specific item in the Exhibits or Schedules is not intended to imply that such amounts or higher or lower amounts, or the items so included or other items, are or are not material, and no party shall use the fact of the setting of such amounts or the fact of the inclusion of any such item in the Schedules in any dispute or controversy between the parties as to whether any obligation, item or matter not described herein or included in an Exhibit or a Schedule is or is not material for purposes of this Agreement.
 
13.12.  Dispute Resolution
 
(a) Hierarchy of Dispute Resolution Procedures. Any dispute, controversy, or claim, whether based on contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentations, or any other legal theory (i) between Seller, the Principals and/or any of their Affiliates, on the one hand, and Buyer and/or any of its Affiliates, on the other hand (a “Dispute”), that arises out of or relates to this Agreement or any obligations or related services to be provided under this Agreement, shall be resolved in accordance with the procedures described in this Section 13.12. In the case of a Dispute, the parties shall establish an internal hierarchy to facilitate resolution of any Dispute as set forth below:
 
39

(i) Upon written request of Seller or Buyer, Seller shall appoint one designated representative and Buyer shall appoint one designated representative whose task it shall be to meet for the purpose of endeavoring to resolve such Dispute. Before any initial meeting, the designated representative shall provide to each party written notice of any Dispute, which notice shall include a detailed description of the claim or dispute sufficient to allow a full analysis and complete response. Each party shall exercise good faith in providing its response to any claim or dispute, in advance of the first meeting between designated representatives. The designated representatives shall meet as often as the parties reasonably deem necessary to discuss the Dispute in an effort to resolve the Dispute without the necessity of any further proceeding.
 
(ii) Seller and Buyer shall negotiate in good faith in an attempt to resolve the Dispute for a period of not greater than sixty (60) days after notice of the Dispute is received by the parties.
 
(b) Arbitration.
 
(i) If the parties are unable to resolve any Dispute as contemplated by Section 13.12(a), such Dispute, excluding any matter relating to questions of arbitrability and any action for injunctive relief or specific performance, shall be submitted to arbitration.
 
(ii) Any arbitration hereunder shall be conducted as a self administered arbitration in accordance with and subject to the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq., the “Arbitration Act”) to the exclusion of any state arbitration laws, and to the extent not inconsistent with the Arbitration Act, in accordance with the commercial arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association, as then in effect (the “Arbitration Rules”). The arbitration shall occur in New York, NY.
 
(iii) The arbitration panel shall consist of a three (3) arbitrators, one chosen by each party to such arbitration proceeding and the third chosen by mutual agreement of the two (2) arbitrators selected by such parties. The arbitrators shall be lawyers, judges or mediators experienced in the resolution of commercial disputes. The relevant parties shall cooperate to select their respective arbitrators promptly after service of a document initiating arbitration and with the goal of swiftly constituting the full panel. Once the arbitration panel has been constituted, all arbitrators shall be treated as neutral arbitrators, and no ex parte communications shall be permitted.
 
40

(iv) The award of an arbitration panel shall be final and binding upon the parties to such arbitration proceeding, with only such rights of appeal or review as are available under the Arbitration Act.
 
(v) Except for the matters specifically addressed in the Arbitration Rules or hereafter in this Section 13.12(b) the procedural rules for the conduct of an arbitration under this Section 13.12(b) shall be established by the arbitration panel consistent with the parties' intent that any arbitration hereunder is to be conducted in a streamlined and expedited manner, with limited discovery, and as economically as practicable. In addition, the following shall apply:
 
(1) All costs and fees of counsel and expert witnesses shall be borne by the party incurring the same; and
 
(2) The costs of the arbitration panel shall be divided equally among the parties to any arbitration proceeding.
 
13.13.  Damages Limitations. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement, no party hereto or other Person shall be entitled to consequential, collateral, special, incidental, multiple, indirect or punitive damages, lost profits or similar items in connection with any disputes, claims, damages or injuries arising under or in any manner related to this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, or any other agreement or document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto, including Schedules and Exhibits hereto or thereto.
