The execution and delivery of this Agreement do not, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and compliance with the provisions hereof will not, conflict with, or result in any breach or violation of, or default (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both) under, or give rise to a right of termination, cancellation, or acceleration of or “put” right with respect to any obligation or to a loss of a material benefit under, or result in the creation of any lien upon any of the properties or assets of the Tersus Shareholder under, (i) any loan or credit agreement, note, bond, mortgage, indenture, lease or other agreement, instrument, permit, concession, franchise, or license applicable to the Tersus Shareholder, its properties or assets; or (ii) subject to the governmental filings and other matters referred to in the following sentence, any judgment, order, decree, statute, law, ordinance, rule, regulation, or arbitration award applicable to the Tersus Shareholder, its properties or assets, other than any such conflicts would not prevent the Tersus Shareholder from consummating the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

 

(c) Investment. The Tersus Shareholder is acquiring the Exchange Shares for Tersus Shareholder’s own account, and not directly or indirectly for the account of any other person. The Tersus Shareholder is acquiring the Exchange Shares for investment and not with a view to distribution or resale thereof except in compliance with the Securities Act and any applicable state law regulating securities.

 

(d) Registration of Securities. The Tersus Shareholder must bear the economic risk of investment for an indefinite period of time because the Exchange Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act and therefore cannot and will not be sold unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available. GTLL has made no representations, warranties, or covenants whatsoever as to whether any exemption from the Securities Act, including, without limitation, any exemption for limited sales in routine brokers’ transactions pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act will become available. Transfer of the Exchange Shares has not been registered or qualified under any applicable state law regulating securities and therefore the Exchange Shares cannot and will not be sold unless it is subsequently registered or qualified under any such act or an exemption therefrom is available. GTLL has made no representations, warranties or covenants whatsoever as to whether any exemption from any such act will become available.

 

(e) Access to Information. The Tersus Shareholder acknowledges that GTLL has made available to it the opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from GTLL’s management, including its officers and directors, concerning the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the business and financial condition of GTLL, and the Tersus Shareholder has received such information about the business and financial condition of GTLL and the terms and conditions of the Agreement as it has requested. The Tersus Shareholder understands that the Exchange Shares are speculative investments, which involve a high degree of risk of loss of the Tersus Shareholder’s entire investment.

(f) Sophistication. The Tersus Shareholder further represents and warrants that the Tersus Shareholder has such business or financial expertise as to be able to protect the Tersus Shareholder’s own interests in connection with an investment in the Exchange Securities. The Tersus Shareholder further represents that it has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risk of such investment. The Tersus Shareholder also represents that it has not been organized for the purpose of acquiring securities.

Each party agrees to receive the Confidential Information in strict confidence and not distribute, disclose, or disseminate any Confidential Information of another party except to its employees and contractors (under at least the same obligation of confidentiality) with a need to know, and to its financial or legal advisors.

Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, each Party agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and to do, or cause to be done, and to assist and cooperate with the other Parties in doing, all things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and make effective, in the most expeditious manner practicable, the Exchange and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement. GTLL and Tersus shall mutually cooperate in order to facilitate the achievement of the benefits reasonably anticipated from the Exchange.

3.7 Tax Matters.

 

(a) The Tersus Shareholders shall prepare (or cause to be prepared) all Tax Returns of Tersus for Pre-Closing Tax Periods.

The Tersus Shareholders shall timely pay (or cause to be paid) to the applicable Governmental Entity all Taxes shown to be due on any Tax Return described in this Section 3.8(a).

 

(b) In order to apportion appropriately any Taxes relating to Straddle Periods, the parties hereto will, to the extent permitted by applicable law, elect with the relevant Governmental Entity to treat for all purposes the Closing date as the last day of a taxable period of Tersus (a “Short Period”). In any case where applicable law does not permit Tersus to treat the Closing date as the last day of a Short Period, then for purposes of this Agreement, the portion of each Tax that is attributable to the operations of Tersus for the period which would have qualified as a Short Period if such election had been permitted by applicable law (an “Interim Period”) shall be (i) in the case of any property Tax, ad valorem Tax, or exemption, allowance or deduction that is calculated on an annual basis (including, but not limited to, depreciation and amortization deductions), the total amount of such Tax or item for the period in question multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the Interim Period, and the denominator of which is the total number of days in such Straddle Period, and (ii) in the case of any Tax or item not described in clause (i), the Tax that would be due with respect to the Interim Period if such Interim Period were a Short Period determined based upon an interim closing of the books.

 

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Tersus Shareholders shall have the sole right to control, through counsel of their own choosing, the defense or settlement of any claim or proceeding relating to a Tax matter for Pre-Closing Tax Periods.

 

(d) Each party hereto agrees to co-operate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other party, in connection with the filing of any Tax Returns, any audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes. The parties further agree, upon request, to use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any certificate or other document from any Governmental Entity or any other Person as may be necessary to mitigate, reduce or eliminate any Tax that could be imposed with respect to the transactions contemplated in this Agreement.

(i) by mutual written consent of GTLL and Tersus;

ARTICLE VI
INDEMNIFICATION AND RELATED MATTERS

 

6.1 Expiration and Survival of Representations, Warranties and Covenants.

 

(a) The representations, warranties and covenants of Tersus and each Tersus Shareholder set forth in this Agreement or in any instrument delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall expire at the Closing, and Tersus and each Tersus Shareholder shall not have any liability thereafter with respect to any breach or inaccuracy in such representations, warranties or covenants. For the avoidance of doubt, the Tersus Shareholders shall have no liability or responsibility for the accuracy of the representations, warranties and covenants of Tersus under this Agreement. The sole and exclusive remedy of GTLL with respect to the breach of any representation, warranty or covenant of Tersus or any Tersus Shareholder shall be a termination of this Agreement prior to the Closing.

 

(b) The representations and warranties of GTLL set forth in this Agreement or in any instrument delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall survive until twenty-four (24) months after the Closing (except for with respect to Taxes which shall survive for the applicable statute of limitations plus ninety (90) days, and covenants that by their terms survive for a longer period).

 

(c) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, covenants set forth in this Agreement to be performed at or following the Closing shall survive the Closing.

 

6.2 Indemnification.

 

(a) GTLL shall indemnify and hold Tersus and the Tersus Shareholders, and their affiliates and assigns, harmless for, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, damages, losses, deficiencies, costs, penalties, interest, and expenses (including, but not limited to, any and all expenses whatsoever reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever) (collectively, “Losses”) to which Tersus, the Tersus Shareholders, or their affiliates and assigns, may become subject resulting from or arising out of any breach of a representation, warranty or covenant made by GTLL as set forth herein.

Page 18 of 23

 

 

6.3 Notice of Indemnification. Promptly after the receipt by any indemnified Party (the “Indemnitee”) of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding against such Indemnitee, such Indemnitee shall, if a claim with respect thereto is or may be made against any indemnifying Party (the “Indemnifying Party”) pursuant to this Article VI, give such Indemnifying Party written notice of the commencement of such action or proceeding and give such Indemnifying Party a copy of such claim and/or process and all legal pleadings in connection therewith. The failure to give such notice shall not relieve any Indemnifying Party of any of its indemnification obligations contained in this Article VI, except where, and solely to the extent that, such failure actually and materially prejudices the rights of such Indemnifying Party. Such Indemnifying Party shall have, upon request within thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice, but not in any event after the settlement or compromise of such claim, the right to defend, at its own expense and by its own counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee, any such matter involving the asserted liability of the Indemnitee; provided, however, that if the Indemnitee determines that there is a reasonable probability that a claim may materially and adversely affect it, other than solely as a result of money payments required to be reimbursed in full by such Indemnifying Party under this Article VI or if a conflict of interest exists between Indemnitee and the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnitee shall have the right to defend, compromise or settle such claim or suit; and, provided, further, that such settlement or compromise shall not, unless consented to in writing by such Indemnifying Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, be conclusive as to the liability of such Indemnifying Party to the Indemnitee. In any event, the Indemnitee, such Indemnifying Party and its counsel shall cooperate in the defense against, or compromise of, any such asserted liability, and in cases where the Indemnifying Party shall have assumed the defense, the Indemnitee shall have the right to participate in the defense of such asserted liability at the Indemnitee’s own expense. In the event that such Indemnifying Party shall decline to participate in or assume the defense of such action, prior to paying or settling any claim against which such Indemnifying Party is, or may be, obligated under this Article VI to indemnify an Indemnitee, the Indemnitee shall first supply such Indemnifying Party with a copy of a final court judgment or decree holding the Indemnitee liable on such claim or, failing such judgment or decree, the terms and conditions of the settlement or compromise of such claim. An Indemnitee’s failure to supply such final court judgment or decree or the terms and conditions of a settlement or compromise to such Indemnifying Party shall not relieve such Indemnifying Party of any of its indemnification obligations contained in this Article VI, except where, and solely to the extent that, such failure actually and materially prejudices the rights of such Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party is defending the claim as set forth above, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to settle the claim only with the consent of the Indemnitee.

 

6.4 Remedies. If GTLL has any indemnification liability to the Tersus Shareholders under this Agreement, the Tersus Shareholder shall have the option, but not the obligation, to require that GTLL satisfy such indemnification obligation through the issuance of additional GTLL common stock having aggregate fair market value equal to the indemnification obligation amount. If the GTLL common stock is then publicly traded, its fair market value per share shall be the average closing price for the ten (10) trading day period ending five (5) trading days prior to the date of determination of fair market value. For the absence of doubt, the foregoing remedy shall be cumulative with, and not lieu of, any other remedy at law, equity or otherwise.

This Agreement and the other agreements referred to herein constitute the entire agreement, and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the Parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement. This Agreement is not intended to confer upon any person other than the Parties any rights or remedies.

 

7.5 Governing Law/Venue.

Except as otherwise required by applicable law, each party hereby irrevocably: (a) submits in any legal proceeding relating to this Agreement to the exclusive jurisdiction of any state or United States court of competent jurisdiction sitting in the State of Nevada and agrees to suit being brought in such courts; and (b) waives any objection it may now or hereafter have to the venue of such proceeding in any such court or that such proceeding was brought in an inconvenient forum.

7.9 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in two or more counterparts, any one of which need not contain the signatures of more than one Party, but all such counterparts taken together will constitute one and the same Agreement. This Agreement, to the extent delivered by means of a facsimile machine or electronic mail (any such delivery, an “Electronic Delivery”), shall be treated in all manner and respects as an original agreement or instrument, and shall be considered to have the same binding legal effect as if it were the original signed version thereof delivered in person.
