(b) Delivery of Earnout Statement.  Within thirty (30) days following the end of the Earnout Period, Buyer shall deliver or cause to be delivered to Seller a statement of Buyer's calculation of the Product Net Revenue recorded by Buyer (broken out by customer by month) during the Earnout Period (the "Earnout Statement").
 
(c) Computation of Contingent Payments.
 
(i)   The term "Product Net Revenue" means gross revenues calculated in accordance with GAAP recorded by Buyer from external customers for the sales of Products (and without giving effect to any external commissions paid), less permitted discounts and sales returns.
 
(ii)   In its sales and marketing of Products, Buyer shall undertake efforts in the customary and ordinary course that are commercially reasonable in the context of Buyer's overall business.
 
(iii)  To the extent applicable, Buyer shall keep full, true and accurate books and records of account containing the particulars of Products sales and the calculation of Product Net Revenue.  Such books and records must be maintained and available for examination by Seller in accordance with this Section 1.5(c)(iii) for three (3) calendar years after the calendar year to which they pertain, and as otherwise required to comply with applicable accounting standards.  To the extent Buyer transfers or assigns any right to sell Products to any Affiliate or other successor, transferee or assignee (in each case, whether direct or indirect), Buyer shall cause such Affiliate or successor, transferee or assignee, as applicable, to maintain and make available to Seller the books and records otherwise required to be maintained by Buyer in accordance with this Section 1.5(c)(iii).

(iv)   For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties acknowledge and agree that the obligation of Buyer to make the Earnout Payment to Seller in accordance with this Section 1.5 and Section 1.6 below shall be binding on any Affiliate, successor, transferee or assignee (in each case, whether direct or indirect) of Buyer.  In furtherance of the foregoing, Buyer shall, and shall cause its Affiliates and successors, transferees and assignees (in each case, whether direct or indirect) to, cause any such Affiliate, successor, transferee or assignee (in each case, whether direct or indirect) to agree in writing to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Section 1.5 (including this Section 1.5(c)(iv)) and Section 1.6 below, in each case as may be reasonably required to permit Seller to receive the Earnout Payment from such Affiliate, successor, transferee or assignee.
 
1.6 Review of Computation of Contingent Consideration.
 
(a) The Earnout Statement delivered by Buyer pursuant to Section 1.5(b) shall become finally determined and binding upon the Parties on the thirtieth (30th) day following the date on which the Earnout Statement is delivered to Seller, unless (i) earlier agreed to by the Parties or (ii) Seller delivers a written notice of its disagreement with the Earnout Statement (a "Notice of Disagreement") to Buyer prior to such date.  Any Notice of Disagreement shall specify in reasonable detail the nature of any disagreement so asserted.  During the thirty (30) day period following the delivery of the Notice of Disagreement, Seller shall have the right, directly or through its designated representatives, to inspect, audit and make copies of all of Buyer's books, records, correspondence, receipts, vouchers and memoranda relating to the Business.  Buyer shall preserve all such applicable records for a period of three (3) years, and shall provide access to the principal office of Buyer for such audit during normal business hours.  If a Notice of Disagreement is received by Buyer in a timely manner, then any Earnout Statement so disputed (as revised in accordance with this sentence) shall become final and binding upon the Parties on the earlier of (x) the date the Parties resolve in writing any differences they have with respect to the matters specified in the Notice of Disagreement and (y) the date any disputed matters are finally resolved in writing by the Accounting Firm (as defined below).  During the thirty (30) calendar day period following the delivery of a Notice of Disagreement, Seller and Buyer shall seek in good faith to resolve in writing any differences that they may have with respect to the matters specified in the Notice of Disagreement.  If at the end of such thirty (30) day period Seller and Buyer have not resolved in writing all of the matters specified in the Notice of Disagreement, Seller and Buyer shall submit to an independent accounting firm (the "Accounting Firm") for arbitration within thirty (30) calendar days of the expiration of such thirty (30) day period, in accordance with the standards set forth in this Section 1.6, only the matters that remain in dispute.  The Accounting Firm shall be Grant Thornton LLP or such other nationally recognized independent public accounting firm as shall be agreed upon by Seller and Buyer in writing.  The Accounting Firm shall execute a confidentiality agreement in form and substance that is reasonably satisfactory to Buyer and Seller.  Seller and Buyer shall use reasonable efforts to cause the Accounting Firm to render a written decision resolving the matters submitted to the Accounting Firm within thirty (30) calendar days of the receipt of such submission.  The Accounting Firm's decision shall be final and binding on the Parties.  Judgment may be entered upon the determination of the Accounting Firm in any court having jurisdiction over the Party against which such determination is to be enforced, subject to any further restrictions as set forth in this Agreement.  The fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm incurred pursuant to this Section 1.6 shall be split equally between Seller and Buyer.

(b) Within five (5) days of the final determination of the Earnout Statement in accordance with Section 1.6(a) above, Buyer shall pay, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Seller, the finally determined amount of the Earnout Payment.  If such payment date occurs on a non-Business Day, then the Earnout Payment shall be payable on the first Business Day following such payment date.

(b) Response to a Demand.  The indemnifying Party may reply to a Demand made under Section 5.4(a) hereof by written notice given to the indemnified Party, which notice shall state whether the indemnifying Party agrees or disagrees that the claim asserted by the indemnified party is a valid claim under this Agreement and agrees or disagrees with respect to the amount of the Losses in such Demand.  If within fifteen (15) calendar days after receipt of the Demand (the "Indemnity Notice Period") the indemnifying Party does not give to the indemnified party a notice disputing such Demand specifying the nature and amount of such dispute or if the indemnifying party gives notice that such Demand is uncontested, then the indemnifying Party shall deliver payment to the indemnified party in cash an amount equal to the value of the Losses stated in the Demand within the fifteen (15) calendar days of the earlier of expiration of such Indemnity Notice Period or notice that the Demand is uncontested.  If the notice from the indemnifying Party admits that a portion of the Demand is a valid claim under Section 5.2 or 5.3 of this Agreement and the remaining portion of the Demand is disputed, then the indemnifying Party shall pay to the indemnified party in cash an amount equal to the value of the Losses as are allocable to mutually agreed upon Losses within the fifteen (15) calendar days of delivery of such notice from the indemnifying Party and the disputed portion of such Demand shall be resolved in accordance with Section 5.4(c).
 
(c) Disputed Claims.  If the notice given by the indemnifying Party as provided in Section 5.4(b) hereof disputes the claim or claims asserted in the Demand by the indemnified party or the amount of Losses thereof within the Indemnity Notice Period (a "Disputed Claim"), then the Demand shall be treated as a Disputed Claim and adjudicated in accordance with Section 9.10 hereof.
 
(d) Third Party Claims.  Promptly after receipt of any assertion of Losses by any third Person ("Third Party Claims") that might give rise to any Losses for which indemnification may be sought pursuant to Section 5.2 or 5.3, the indemnified Party shall promptly give written
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
23

notice to the indemnifying party of such Third Party Claim (a "Notice of Third Party Claim"), stating the (i) nature, basis and facts giving rise to such Third Party Claim, (ii) the amount of Losses or the estimated amount thereof to the extent feasible, and (iii) the amount of liability asserted against the indemnifying party by reason of the Third Party Claim.  Such Notice of Third Party Claim shall be accompanied by copies of all relevant documentation with respect to such Third Party Claim, including any summons, complaint or other pleading that may have been served, any written demand or any other document or instrument.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the failure to provide notice as aforesaid to the indemnifying Party will not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability which it may have to the indemnified party under this Agreement or otherwise except to the extent the indemnifying party shall have been materially prejudiced by such failure.
 
(e) Defense of Third Party Claims.  The indemnifying Party may elect to defend and control any Third Party Claim with counsel of its own choosing, reasonably acceptable to the indemnified Party, within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of the Notice of Claim by the indemnifying party (the "Election to Defend"), and shall act reasonably and in accordance with its good faith business judgment in handling such Third Party Claim, provided that (i) the indemnifying Party may not enter into or make any settlement, compromise, admission or acknowledgement of the validity of any Third Party Claim or any liability in respect thereof without the written consent of the indemnified Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed unless such settlement or compromise (i) involves only the payment of money damages by the indemnifying Party, and does not impose an injunction or other equitable relief upon the indemnified Party, (ii) includes an unconditional term by each claimant or plaintiff to each indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect of such Third Party Claim and (iii) would not result in the finding or admission of any violation of law or the finding or admission of any fact that, in the indemnified Party's reasonable judgment, is counter to the indemnified Party's interests.  The indemnifying Party shall diligently and actively defend any Third Party Claim. Seller shall maintain reasonable product liability insurance with respect to Third Party Claims that may arise from or relate to Products sold prior to the Closing Date and shall cause Buyer to be named as an additional insured on any such policy.
 
(f) If the indemnifying Party chooses not to defend any Third Party Claim by failure to deliver the Election to Defend, the indemnified party may defend against such Third Party Claim and consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim in any manner it may reasonably deem appropriate and seek indemnification pursuant to this Section 5 for Losses resulting from such Third Party Claim in accordance with Section 5.2 or 5.3.  In addition, if the indemnifying Party has assumed defense of the Third Party Claim in which both the indemnifying Party and the indemnified Party are parties or potential parties and either the indemnifying Party or the indemnified Party reasonably determines with advice of counsel that (A) there may be one or more legal defenses available to it that are different from or additional to those available to the other party, (B) that a potential or actual conflict of interest between such Parties may exist in respect of such Third Party Claim or (C) the employment of separate counsel shall have been authorized in writing by such indemnifying Party in connection with the defense of such Third Party Claim, then the indemnified Party shall be entitled to retain separate legal counsel and submit the fees and expenses of such counsel as part of a Demand for Indemnification pursuant to Section 5.2 or 5.3, as applicable.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnified Party shall at all times have the right to fully participate in such defense at its own expense directly or through counsel; provided that the indemnified Party may not enter into or make any settlement, compromise, admission or acknowledgement of the validity of any Third Party Claim or any liability in respect thereof without the written consent of the indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.  The Parties shall make available to each other and their counsel and accountants all books and records and information relating to any Third Party Claim, keep each other fully apprised as to the details and progress of all proceedings relating thereto and render to each other such assistance as may be reasonably required for the proper and adequate defense of any Third Party Claim.

9.2 Entire Agreement.  This Agreement (including the Exhibits and Schedules (including the Seller Disclosure Schedules) hereto) and any collateral agreements executed in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein contain the entire agreement among the Parties with respect to the purchase of the Business and the Purchased Assets and related transactions, and supersedes all prior agreements, written or oral, with respect thereto, including the Letter of Intent among Buyer and Seller dated June 30, 2015.
 
31

9.3 Governing Law.  This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to its conflict of law provisions.
 
9.4 Rules of Construction.  The Parties hereto agree that they have been represented by counsel during the negotiation and execution of this Agreement and, therefore, waive the application of any law, regulation, holding or ruling of construction providing that ambiguities in an agreement or other document will be construed against the Party drafting such agreement or document.
 
9.5 Binding Effect; No Assignment; No Third-Party Beneficiaries.  This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.  This Agreement is not assignable without the prior written consent of the other Party hereto, provided, however, that Buyer may assign this Agreement to any of its Affiliates without Seller's consent; provided further that any such assignee shall assume in writing all of Buyer's obligations hereunder and that no such assignment shall relieve Buyer of any of its obligations hereunder.  Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person or entity any right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement.
 
9.6 Fees and Expenses.
 
(a) Except as otherwise set forth herein, Buyer, on the one hand, and Seller, on the other, shall bear their respective expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, execution and performance of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including all fees and expenses of agents, advisors, representatives, counsel and accountants.
 
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 5.5, any attorneys' fees and expenses incurred by a Party in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, including any enforcement relating to indemnification rights under Section 5, shall be borne by the non-Prevailing Party and the deductible or maximum limitations set forth in Sections 5.5(a), 5.5(b) or 5.5(c) shall not apply to this 9.6(b).  "Prevailing Party" shall mean the prevailing party as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.
 
9.7 Section Headings, Construction.  The headings of Sections in this Agreement are provided for convenience only and will not affect its construction or interpretation.  Unless otherwise specified, all references to "Section" or "Sections" refer to the corresponding Section or Sections of this Agreement.  The Exhibits and Schedules (including the Seller Disclosure Schedules) are a part of this Agreement as if fully set forth herein.  All words used in this Agreement will be construed to be of such gender or number as the circumstances require.  Unless otherwise expressly provided, the word "including" does not limit the preceding words or terms.
 
9.8 Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, and all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by facsimile transmission or PDF by electronic transmission shall be effective delivery of a manually executed counterpart to this Agreement.
 
 
 
 
 
 
32

9.9 Severability.  If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, the other provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.  Any provision of this Agreement held invalid or unenforceable only in part or degree will remain in full force and effect to the extent not held invalid or unenforceable.  The Parties further agree to replace such invalid or unenforceable provision of this Agreement with a valid and enforceable provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such invalid or unenforceable provision.
 
9.10 Dispute Resolution; Submission to Jurisdiction; Waiver; No Jury Trial.
 
(a) Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, any and all disputes, disagreements or differences pertaining to or arising out of this Agreement (each, a "Dispute") shall, upon written notice from one Party to the other, be referred to a Responsible Officer of each Party, who shall attempt to timely resolve the matter through negotiation.  Any negotiation regarding a Dispute shall be treated as a settlement negotiation and shall not be admissible in any subsequent litigation.  If such Responsible Officers resolve the matter, such resolution shall be recorded in writing and shall be binding upon the Parties.  If a Party fails to appoint a Responsible Officer as representative within ten (10) days of written notice of the existence of a Dispute, or the Responsible Officers are unable to resolve the matter within thirty (30) days, then the matter may proceed to litigation subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 9.10.
 
(b) Each Party irrevocably agrees that any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect hereof brought by the other Party hereto or its successors or assigns may be brought and determined in the courts of the State of Delaware and each Party hereby irrevocably submits with regard to any action or proceeding for itself and in respect to its property, generally and unconditionally, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts.  Each Party hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement, (a) any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts for any reason other than the failure to lawfully serve process, (b) that it or its property is exempt or immune from jurisdiction of any such court or from any legal process commenced in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise), and (c) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, that (i) the suit, action or proceeding in any such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, (ii) the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper and (iii) this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced in or by such courts.
 
(c) EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT.  EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF THE OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT, AS APPLICABLE, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 9.10.
 
 
 
 
 
 
33

9.11 Enforcement.  The parties recognize and agree that if for any reason any of the provisions of this Agreement, including Section 6 hereof, are not performed in accordance with their specific terms or are otherwise breached, immediate and irreparable harm or injury would be caused for which money damages would not be an adequate remedy.  Accordingly, each Party agrees that in addition to other remedies the other Party shall be entitled to an injunction restraining any violation or threatened violation of the provisions of this Agreement.  In the event that any action shall be brought in equity to enforce the provisions of the Agreement, neither Party will allege, and each Party hereby waives the defense, that there is an adequate remedy at law.
