(a)                Any breach or default in the performance by the Seller of any covenant or agreement of the Seller contained in this Agreement;

(b)               Any breach of a representation or warranty made by the Seller herein or in any schedule, certificate, exhibit or other document or instrument delivered to the Seller by or on behalf of the Seller pursuant hereto; or

(c)                Any and all actions, suits, proceedings, claims, demands, judgments, compromises, assessments, settlements, costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees and disbursements of counsel and court costs) incident to any of the foregoing (each a “Claim”).

-13-
 

6.2              Indemnification of the Seller. Subject to the limitations set forth herein, the Purchaser covenants and agrees with the Seller that, regardless of any investigation made at any time by or on behalf of the Seller or any information the Seller may have, the Purchaser shall indemnify the Seller and each of its respective successors and assigns, and any of their respective agents, members, employees, representatives, officers, directors and managers (the “Seller Indemnified Parties”) and hold them harmless from, against and in respect of any and all costs, losses, Claims, liabilities, fines, penalties, damages and expenses which are caused by, result from or arise out of:

-14-
 

6.3              Right to Defend, Etc. If the facts giving rise to any such indemnification shall involve any actual Claim or demand by any third party against a Seller Indemnified Party or Purchaser Indemnified Party (in each case generally referred to as an “Indemnified Party”), the Party hereto from whom indemnification is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”), the Indemnified Party shall give notice as promptly as is reasonably practicable, but in any event no later than fifteen (15) business days after receiving written notice thereof, to the Indemnifying Party of the assertion of any Claim, or the commencement of any suit, action or proceeding, by any person or entity not a party hereto, in respect of which indemnity may be sought under this Agreement (which notice shall, to the extent such information is reasonably available, specify in reasonable detail the nature and amount of such claim together with such information as may be necessary for the Indemnifying Party to determine that the limitations in Section 6.5 have been satisfied or do not apply) and the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate at its expense through counsel of its own choosing to defend or prosecute such claim at its expense and through counsel of its own choosing, in each case, as further described in this Section 6.3. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party within such time shall not relieve such Indemnifying Party of any liability which it may have to any Indemnified Party unless and to the extent materially prejudiced by such delay; and (ii) the Indemnifying Party shall not be required to pay or reimburse the Indemnified Party for any costs or expenses associated with any counsel hired by the Indemnified Party prior to receipt of such notice by the Indemnifying Party. Upon receipt of such notice, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to (a) participate in the defense of any such claim, suit, action or proceeding, and (b) upon notice to the Indemnified Party at any time during the course of any such claim, suit, action or proceeding, assume the defense thereof with counsel of its own choice, and in the event of such assumption, shall have the right, subject to the terms hereof, to settle or compromise such claim, suit, action or proceeding; provided, that the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to assume control of such defense without the consent of the Indemnified Party (not to be unreasonably withheld) if and to the extent provided any such action, suit, proceeding, or claim that seeks non-monetary relief, criminal penalties, or aggregate damages greater than the Indemnifying Party’s potential liability hereunder; provided, further, however, that if the defendants in any action shall include both an Indemnifying Party and an Indemnified Party and the Indemnified Party shall have been advised by its counsel that the counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party has a conflict of interest because of the availability of different or additional defenses to the Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to select separate counsel to participate in the defense of such action on its behalf, at the expense of the Indemnifying Party; provided, further, however, that if there is more than one Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party shall only be required to pay the expense of one additional counsel other than its own. The Indemnified Party shall cooperate fully in the defense of such claim and shall make available to the Indemnifying Party pertinent information under its control relating thereto. If any Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any such claim, the Indemnifying Party will hold the Indemnified Party harmless from and against any and all damages arising out of any settlement approved by such Indemnifying Party or any judgment in connection with such claim or litigation pursuant to this Article 6; subject to the limitation set forth in Section 6.5 hereof. Any settlement or compromise made or caused to be made by the Indemnified Party or the Indemnifying Party as the case may be, of any such claim, suit, action or proceeding of the kind referred to in this Section 6.3 shall also be binding upon the Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party, as the case may be, in the same manner as if a final judgment or decree had been entered by a court of competent jurisdiction in the amount of such settlement or compromise; provided, that (a) no settlement, obligation, restriction or losses shall be imposed on the Indemnified Party as a result of such settlement or compromise without its prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, and (b) the Indemnified Party will not compromise or settle any claim, suit, action or proceeding without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Whether or not the Indemnifying Party chooses to defend or prosecute any such claim, suit, action or proceeding, all of the Parties hereto shall cooperate in the defense or prosecution thereof.

6.4              Special Rule For Fraud. Notwithstanding anything in this Article 6, to the contrary, in the event of any breach of a representation or warranty by a Party that constitutes actual fraud with the intent to deceive, such Party’s liability for breach of such representation or warranty shall survive the Closing and continue in full force and effect for the applicable statute of limitations, and the injured Party’s ability to recover damages relating thereto shall not be subject to any cap or other limitation.

6.5              Limitations on Liability. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement:

(a)                Cap. In no event shall the aggregate liability of any Party exceed the value of the Membership Interests, with respect to the Seller and the Membership Interests, with respect to the Purchaser.

-15-
 

(b)               Exclusive Remedy. The sole and exclusive liability and responsibility of the Seller to Purchaser Indemnified Parties and the Purchaser to Seller Indemnified Parties under or in connection with this Agreement (including for any breach of or inaccuracy in any representation or warranty or for any breach of any covenant or obligation or for any other reason), and the sole and exclusive remedy of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties and Seller Indemnified Parties with respect to any of the foregoing, shall be as set forth in this Article 6. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Article 6 shall prevent or restrict the right of any Party to obtain injunctive relief or specific performance from a court of competent jurisdiction (including, without limitation, to cause the other Parties hereto to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby on and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement).

(c)                Negligence or Misconduct. No Indemnifying Party shall have any liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract or tort or otherwise) to any Indemnified Party if a court of competent jurisdiction has made a final, non-appealable finding, that a Claim (and related expenses) has resulted primarily from such Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, such that the relevant losses or costs would not be indemnifiable or reimbursable under the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act, if such action was taken by the managers of a Delaware limited liability company.

(d)               Additional Limitations on Liability. Neither the Purchaser nor any Purchaser Indemnified Party, nor the Seller nor any Seller Indemnified Party may avoid the limitations on liability set forth in this Article 6 by seeking damages for breach of contract, tort or pursuant to any other theory of liability.

6.6              Net Losses; Subrogation; Mitigation.

(a)                Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the amount of any costs, losses, Claims, liabilities, fines, penalties, damages and expenses incurred or suffered by an Indemnified Party shall be calculated after giving effect to (i) any insurance proceeds received by the Indemnified Party (or any of its affiliates) with respect to such losses, Claims, liabilities, fines, penalties, damages and expenses, and (ii) any recoveries obtained by the Indemnified Party (or any of its affiliates) from any other third party. Each Indemnified Party shall exercise commercially reasonable best efforts to obtain such proceeds, benefits and recoveries. If any such proceeds, benefits or recoveries net of any expenses incurred by such Indemnified Party in collecting such amount are received by an Indemnified Party (or any of its Affiliates), with respect to any losses, Claims, liabilities, fines, penalties, damages and expenses after an Indemnifying Party has made a payment to the Indemnified Party with respect thereto, the Indemnified Party (or such affiliate) shall pay to the Indemnifying Party the amount of such proceeds, benefits or recoveries net of any expenses incurred by such Indemnified Party in collecting such amount (up to the amount of the Indemnifying Party’s payment). With respect to any losses, Claims, liabilities, fines, penalties, damages and expenses incurred or suffered by an Indemnified Party, no liability shall attach to the Indemnifying Party in respect of any losses, Claims, liabilities, fines, penalties, damages and expenses to the extent that the same losses, Claims, liabilities, fines, penalties, damages and expenses have been recovered by the Indemnified Party from the Indemnifying Party, accordingly, the Indemnified Party may only recover once in respect of the same losses, Claims, liabilities, fines, penalties, damages and expenses.

-16-
 

(b)               Upon making any payment to an Indemnified Party in respect of any losses, Claims, liabilities, fines, penalties, damages and expenses, the Indemnifying Party shall, to the extent that such payment represents payment in full of such losses, Claims, liabilities, fines, penalties, damages and expenses, be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnified Party (and its affiliates) against any third party in respect of the losses, Claims, liabilities, fines, penalties, damages and expenses to which such payment relates. Such Indemnified Party (and its affiliates) and Indemnifying Party shall execute upon request all instruments reasonably necessary to evidence or further perfect such subrogation rights.

(c)                Nothing in this Agreement in any way restricts or limits the general obligation at Law of an Indemnified Party to mitigate any loss which it may suffer or incur by reason of the breach by an Indemnifying Party of any representation, warranty, covenant or obligation of the Indemnifying Party under this Agreement, including by asserting claims against a third party or by otherwise qualifying for a benefit that would reduce or eliminate an indemnified matter.

(d)               To the extent that any breach of any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement or any other provision of this Agreement is capable of remedy, the Indemnified Party shall afford the Indemnifying Party a reasonable opportunity to remedy the matter complained of.

ARTICLE 7
TERMINATION

7.1              Termination. This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing Date by:

(a)                the mutual written agreement of the Purchaser and the Seller;

(b)               upon written notice from Purchaser to the Seller if any of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 5.1(a) and (b) shall have become incapable of fulfillment (and shall not have been waived by Purchaser); or

(c)                upon written notice from the Seller to Purchaser if (i) any of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 5.1(a) or (c) shall have become incapable of fulfillment (and shall not have been waived by the Seller).

(d)               Effect of Termination. In the event of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to this section, this Agreement shall become void and have no effect, without any liability to any person in respect hereof or of the transactions contemplated hereby on the part of any Party hereto, or any of its managers, officers, employees, agents, and members; except that, if this Agreement is terminated prior to a Closing, all further obligations of the Parties under this Agreement shall become null and void and of no further force or effect.

-17-
 

ARTICLE 8
MISCELLANEOUS

8.1              Governing Law; Waiver of Jury Trial. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed solely and exclusively in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York without regard to the conflicts of laws principles thereof. The Parties hereto hereby expressly and irrevocably agree that any suit or proceeding arising directly or indirectly pursuant to or under this Agreement shall be brought solely in a federal or state court located in the City, County and State of New York. By its execution hereof, the Parties hereby covenant and irrevocably submit to the in personam jurisdiction of the federal and state courts located in the City, County and State of New York and agree that any process in any such action may be served upon any of them personally, or by certified mail or registered mail upon them or their agent, return receipt requested, with the same full force and effect as if personally served upon them in New York City. The Parties hereto expressly and irrevocably waive any claim that any such jurisdiction is not a convenient forum for any such suit or proceeding and any defense or lack of in personam jurisdiction with respect thereto. In the event of any such action or proceeding, the party prevailing therein shall be entitled to payment from the other party hereto of all of its reasonable counsel fees and disbursements. NO PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY ASSIGNEE, SUCCESSOR, HEIR OR PERSONAL REPRESENTATIVE OF A PARTY SHALL SEEK A JURY TRIAL IN ANY LAWSUIT, PROCEEDING, COUNTERCLAIM OR ANY OTHER LITIGATION PROCEDURE BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER AGREEMENTS OR THE DEALINGS OR THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE PARTIES. NO PARTY WILL SEEK TO CONSOLIDATE ANY SUCH ACTION, IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL HAS BEEN WAIVED, WITH ANY OTHER ACTION IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL CANNOT OR HAS NOT BEEN WAIVED. THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 8.1 HAVE BEEN FULLY DISCUSSED BY THE PARTIES HERETO, AND THESE PROVISIONS SHALL BE SUBJECT TO NO EXCEPTIONS. NO PARTY HERETO HAS IN ANY WAY AGREED WITH OR REPRESENTED TO ANY OTHER PARTY HERETO THAT THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 8.1 WILL NOT BE FULLY ENFORCED IN ALL INSTANCES.

8.2              Entire Agreement; Amendment. This Agreement constitutes the full and entire understanding and agreement among the Parties with regard to the subjects hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings relating thereto. Neither this Agreement nor any term hereof may be amended, waived, discharged or terminated other than by a written instrument signed by the Party against whom enforcement of any such amendment, waiver, discharge or termination is sought.

8.3              Expenses. Each of the Parties shall bear the expenses and legal fees incurred on their own behalf with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, except as otherwise set forth herein.

8.4              Counterparts. This Agreement and any amendments, waivers, consents, or supplements may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all of which counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same instrument. This Agreement shall become effective upon the execution of a counterpart hereof by each of the Parties hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement, any amendments, waivers, consents or supplements, by facsimile or email shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart thereof.

-18-
 

8.5              Severability; Enforcement. In the event that any provision of this Agreement becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, unenforceable or void, this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect without such provision; provided that no such severability shall be effective if it materially changes the economic benefit of this Agreement to any party. The Parties hereto agree that irreparable damage for which money damages would not be an adequate remedy would occur in the event that any of the provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with its specific terms or was otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that, in addition to any other remedies a party may have at law or equity, the Parties shall be entitled to seek an injunction of injunctions to prevent such breached of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms hereof.

This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and assigns; provided, that no assignment of any Party’s rights or obligations may be made without the written consent of the other Parties and any such assignment shall provide that the assigning Party will continue to be bound by all obligations hereunder as if such assignment had not occurred and perform such obligations to the extent that its assignee fails to do so.

8.9              No Third Party Beneficiaries. Except as set forth in Article VI, this Agreement is solely for the benefit of the Parties hereto and those persons specifically described herein, and, except as aforesaid, no provision of this Agreement shall be deemed to confer any remedy, claim or right upon any third party. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Parties expressly confirm their agreement that, in addition to the Seller and Purchaser, the other Seller Indemnified Parties and Purchaser Indemnified Parties, as the case may be, shall also enjoy the benefits of indemnities made herein which are expressly stated to be in their favor. In this regard, the Parties agree that such persons shall have the right to enforce those provisions directly against the applicable Indemnifying Party.

8.10            Disclaimer. Except for the representations explicitly set forth in Article 3 herein, Purchaser has not relied upon, and the Seller and its respective affiliates, officers, partners and managers shall not have any liability with respect to, any information concerning Manorhaven not expressly represented and warranted to, or otherwise set forth in this Agreement. Except as set forth in Article 3 of this Agreement, Manorhaven and its assets and business shall be deemed “as is, where is” on the Closing Date. This Agreement constitutes the complete agreement of the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior discussions, negotiations and understandings.
