ARTICLE III

PURCHASE PRICE AND CLOSING

3.1 Purchase Price.

(a) The aggregate purchase price to be paid for the Purchased Assets shall be equal to the sum of:

(i) Eight Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($8,500,000) payable in cash at Closing (the “Cash Consideration”) subject to adjustment as set forth in Section 3.2;

(ii) One Million Two Hundred Eleven Thousand Four Hundred Eighty Two (1,211,482) shares of Common Stock of Buyer, $.01 par value per share (the “Buyer Common Stock”) (such number of shares of Buyer Common Stock, the “Equity Consideration”); and

(iii) the Earn Out Payment, if any, provided for under Section 3.7 (along with the Cash Consideration and the Equity Consideration, collectively, the “Purchase Price”).

(b) The Equity Consideration, the Cash Consideration and the Assumed Liabilities shall be allocated among the Purchased Assets in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code and the regulations thereunder as described on the Allocation Schedule (“Allocation Schedule”), which shall be delivered by Buyer to the Company within ten (10) business days after the Closing Date. The Company has ten (10) business days to review such Allocation Schedule and if it does not deliver written notice to Buyer disagreeing with any items set forth on the Allocation Schedule, such revised Allocation Schedule shall be treated as final. If, however, the Company does so provide written notice to Buyer within the requisite time frame, the parties shall cooperate in good faith to resolve any disagreements. Any indemnification payment treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price shall be reflected as an adjustment to the amount set forth on the Allocation Schedule that is allocated to the specific asset, if any, giving rise to the adjustment, and if any such adjustment does not relate to a specific asset, such adjustment shall be allocated among the Purchased Assets acquired hereunder in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code and the regulations thereunder and consistent with the methodology of the original Allocation Schedule. Any Earn Out Payment shall adjust the amount set forth on the Allocation Schedule and shall be allocated among the Purchased Assets acquired hereunder in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code and the regulations thereunder and consistent with the methodology of the original Allocation Schedule. In the event such adjustments to the Allocation Schedule occur as described in the two preceding sentences, Buyer shall send the Company a draft of a revised Allocation Schedule showing the adjustments within thirty (30) days of the event causing the adjustment. The Company has thirty (30) days to review such draft of the revised Allocation Schedule and if it does not deliver written notice to Buyer disagreeing with any items set forth on the Allocation Schedule, such revised Allocation Schedule shall be treated as final. If, however, the Company does so provide written notice to Buyer within the requisite time frame, the parties shall cooperate in good faith to resolve any disagreements. Buyer and the Company shall each prepare and file their respective Tax Returns, including Asset Acquisition Statements on IRS Form 8594, employing the allocation made pursuant to this Section 3.1(b) and shall not take a position in any Tax proceeding or audit or otherwise that is inconsistent with such allocation; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall require Buyer or the Company to contest beyond, or otherwise than by, the exhaustion of their administrative remedies before any Taxing Authority, and Buyer and the Company shall not be required to litigate before any court, including the United States Tax Court, any proposed deficiency or adjustment by any Taxing Authority which challenges such allocation. Buyer, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, shall give prompt notice to the other of the commencement of any Tax audit or the assertion of any proposed deficiency or adjustment by any Taxing Authority that challenges such allocation.

3.2 Minimum Net Assets.

(a) After the Closing Date, Buyer shall prepare in good faith and deliver to the Company a statement setting forth the Current Assets and the Total Liabilities of the Business as at February 28, 2010, prepared in accordance with GAAP applied on a basis consistent with the accounting principles, procedures, policies and methods that were used to prepare the Balance Sheet furnished pursuant to Section 4.7 (the “Closing Date Statement”). Buyer shall deliver the Closing Date Statement to the Company within sixty (60) days following the Closing Date.

(b) The Company shall have the right to review the books and records of Buyer (including work papers of Buyer) to the extent related to the Business and the computation of Current Assets and Total Liabilities as set forth on the Closing Date Statement for a period of sixty (60) days after the Company’s receipt of the Closing Date Statement to verify and confirm the accuracy thereof. If, after such review, the Company objects to the Closing Date Statement, the Company shall promptly (and in any event within sixty (60) days after the Company’s receipt of the Closing Date Statement) provide Buyer with a statement indicating the basis for its objections, and Buyer and the Company shall meet and confer in an effort to resolve such disagreement in good faith. If the Company does not provide such a statement of objections within sixty (60) days after its receipt of the Closing Date Statement, the Company shall be deemed to have agreed to the Closing Date Statement, and the Closing Date Statement shall be deemed to be the Final Closing Date Statement.

(c) In the event Buyer and the Company are unable to resolve a disagreement with respect to the Closing Date Statement within thirty (30) days following the date of Buyer’s objection (or such longer period as Buyer and the Company may agree), the Final Closing Date Statement shall be determined by an independent firm of certified public accountants mutually agreeable to Buyer and the Company (the “Accountants”). If issues in dispute are submitted to the Accountants for resolution, (i) each party shall promptly execute a reasonable and customary engagement letter requested by the Accountants, (ii) each party shall furnish to the Accountants such work papers and other documents and information relating to the disputed issues as the Accountants may request and are available to that party, and shall be afforded the opportunity to present to the Accountants any material relating to the determination and to discuss the determination with the Accountants, (iii) the determination by the Accountants of the Final Closing Date Statement as set forth in a notice delivered to both parties by the Accountants, will be binding and conclusive on the parties, and (iv) the fees and expenses of the Accountants for such determination shall be paid by the parties based upon the degree to which the Accountants accept the respective positions of the parties. For example, if it is Buyer’s position that the adjustment owed is $300, the Company’s position that the adjustment owed is $100 and the Accountants’ finding that the adjustment owed is $150, then Buyer shall pay 75% (300-150 / 300-100) of the Accountants’ fees and expenses and the Company shall pay 25% (150-100 / 300-100) of the Accountants’ fees and expenses. Other than the expense of retaining the Accountants, the expense of preparing the Final Closing Date Statement shall be borne by the Company.

(d) Upon the determination of the Final Closing Date Statement pursuant to either the agreement of the parties or the determination of the Accountants, the Equity Consideration shall be decreased by the amount by which Current Assets as at February 28, 2010 less Total Liabilities as at February 28, 2010 is below $1,693,908 or increased by the amount by which the Current Assets as at February 28, 2010 less Total Liabilities as at February 28, 2010 is greater than $1,693,908 (in either case, the “Closing Adjustment”). Within three (3) business days of such determination or agreement:

(i) in the event that the amount of Equity Consideration is decreased pursuant to Section 3.2(d), the Company shall surrender to the Buyer that number of shares of Buyer Common Stock yielded by dividing (A) the Closing Adjustment by (B) $2.35249; and

(ii) in the event that the amount of Equity Consideration is increased pursuant to Section 3.2(d), Buyer shall issue to the Company that number of shares of Buyer Common Stock yielded by dividing (A) the Closing Adjustment by (B) $2.35249.

3.3 Closing.

The amount of this earn out payment (the “Earn Out Payment”) shall be calculated as follows:

Between 80 and 100	((Earn Out Ratio – 80) / 20) x $2,500,000
100 and greater	$2,500,000

For example, if the Earn Out Ratio equals 82, then the Earn Out Payment will be $250,000.

(b) Buyer shall prepare a statement for the Business setting forth in reasonable detail Buyer’s calculation of the Gross Revenue and the Earn Out Ratio (the “Gross Revenue Statement”) and deliver such Gross Revenue Statement to the Company within sixty (60) days of the end of the Earn Out Period.

(c) Buyer and the Company shall each provide access to the other and the other’s accountants to the books, records and other relevant information that are under their respective control or custody and that are necessary to prepare the Gross Revenue Statement and will cause their respective accountants to provide access to the relevant work papers and other relevant documents and information.

(d) The Company shall have forty five (45) days from the date of its receipt of a Gross Revenue Statement to review such Gross Revenue Statement and to agree or disagree as to the amount of Gross Revenue or the Earn Out Ratio reflected thereon. If the Company does not agree with the amount of Gross Revenue or the Earn Out Ratio reflected on a Gross Revenue Statement, then the Company shall, within such forty five (45) day period, deliver a written objection to Buyer that shall specify in reasonable detail the basis for the objection on a line item basis and a computation of the Gross Revenue or the Earn Out Ratio asserted by the Company (the “Gross Revenue Objection”). If the Company fails to make a Gross Revenue Objection within such forty five (45) day period, then Buyer’s calculation of Gross Revenue and the Earn Out Ratio shall be final and binding on all parties. Upon Buyer’s receipt of the Gross Revenue Objection, if any, Buyer and the Company shall negotiate in good faith to resolve the Gross Revenue Objection, but if the Gross Revenue Objection cannot be resolved by negotiation between Buyer and the Company within thirty (30) days after Buyer’s receipt of the Gross Revenue Objection, the Gross Revenue Statement shall be determined by the Accountants.

Other than the expense of retaining the Accountants, the expense of preparing each Gross Revenue Statement shall be borne by Buyer. The date on which the Accountants notify the Parties of its determination of Gross Revenue is the “Gross Revenue Determination Date.”

(e) Any payment required by Section 3.7(a) shall be made within five (5) days after the earliest to occur of (i) the Company’s failure to deliver timely an Gross Revenue Objection for the Earn Out Period, (ii) the date Buyer and the Company agree on the Gross Revenue for the Earn Out Period, and (iii) the applicable Gross Revenue Determination Date.

The Company agrees and understands that the Earn Out Payment is not guaranteed, is set at levels that reflect strong future performance, and that Buyer may make business decisions which it believes to be appropriate but in hindsight may directly or indirectly affect the likelihood of the Company receiving any payment contemplated by Section 3.7(a).

(g) Buyer acknowledges and agrees that the Earn Out Payment is a material part of the Purchase Price and the ability to receive the maximum Earn Out Payment is a material inducement for the Company to enter into the Agreement. During the Earn Out Period, Buyer shall operate the Business in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner and shall not take any action or omit to take any action during the Earn Out Period that is intended to impede the Company’s ability to earn the maximum Earn Out Payment.

(i) upon the consummation of any sale, exchange, dividend or other distribution, liquidation or relocation of any portion of the Business or Purchased Assets in one transaction or a series of transactions by the Buyer such that the calculation of Gross Revenue for the Earn Out Period is infeasible;

(ii) upon a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Business or Buyer in one transaction or a series of related transactions, or a merger, sale of stock, consolidation or similar transaction as a result of which at least 65% of the outstanding common stock of Buyer or the surviving entity in the merger, consolidation or similar transaction is held by a Person or group of related Persons who did not own at least 50% of the outstanding Buyer Common Stock immediately prior to such transaction; and

(iii) upon Buyer taking any action to merge any Products with other products such that the calculation of Gross Revenue for the Earn Out Period is infeasible.

(k) Buyer may offset up to $500,000 in severance obligations with respect to any Transferred Employees arising during the Earn Out Period and that are Assumed Liabilities against such Earn Out Payment, if any.

(l) Any Earn Out Payments required to be made pursuant to this Section 3.7 shall be accounted for as an increase to the Cash Consideration.

The Company hereby names Buyer as the Company’s exclusive dealer for the products set forth on Section 6.13 of the Disclosure Schedule (the “Distribution Products”) and the Company covenants that it will not distribute the Distribution Products, directly or indirectly, other than through Buyer.

EMPLOYEES

8.1 Employee Benefit Representations. The Company represents and warrants to Buyer that, except as disclosed in Section 8.1 of the Disclosure Schedule:

(a) Section 8.1(a) of the Disclosure Schedule contains a true and complete list of each Employee Benefit Plan and each Foreign Plan. The Company and each OEM Subsidiary has provided correct and complete copies of the SafeNet 401(k) Plan and each Foreign Plan maintained, sponsored or contributed to by the OEM Subsidiaries, including all governing plan documents, summary plan descriptions, and IRS determination letters, if applicable.

(b) Neither the Company nor any of the Company’s ERISA Affiliates have at any time sponsored, been a party to, contributed to, or had any liability or obligation with respect to (i) a “defined benefit plan” (as defined in ERISA Section 3(35) and Code Section 414(j)), (ii) a “multi-employer plan” (as defined in ERISA Sections 3(37) and 4001(a)(3)), or (iii) a “multiple employer plan” (meaning a plan sponsored by more than one employer within the meaning of ERISA Sections 4063 or 4064 or Code Section 413(c)). Neither the Company nor any of the Company’s ERISA Affiliates have incurred any liability under Title IV of ERISA. Neither the Company nor its ERISA Affiliates have maintained in the past nor currently maintain an Employee Benefit Plan providing welfare benefits (as defined in ERISA Section 3(1)) to employees after retirement or other separation of service except to the extent required under Part 6 of Title I of ERISA or Code Section 4980B.

(c) Each Employee Benefit Plan that is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code is so qualified and has been so qualified during the period from its adoption to date and has been maintained pursuant to a document that has received a favorable opinion or determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service. Each trust forming a part thereof is exempt from tax pursuant to Section 501(a) of the Code.

(d) Each Employee Benefit Plan complies and has been administered in accordance with its terms and all Laws, including ERISA and the Code, in all material respects. Each Employee Benefit Plan is, and has been, operated and administered in material compliance with the appropriate written plan documents. There are no pending investigations by any Governmental Body involving any Employee Benefit Plan and, to the Knowledge of the Company, no threatened or pending claims against any Employee Benefit Plan (except for claims for benefits payable in the normal operation of the Employee Benefit Plan). All contributions to, and payments from, each Employee Benefit Plan have been timely made.

(e) All Foreign Plans that are defined benefit plans, defined contribution plans or employee welfare plans of the OEM Subsidiaries are in compliance, in all material respects, with and have been administered in accordance with, their terms and in compliance, in all material respects, with all applicable requirements of law, including Tax laws. The pension plan for employees of SafeNet, B.V. is a defined-contribution plan, is funded solely through the purchase of insurance contracts from Achmea Avero, Interpolis and Zwitserleven, the accrued benefit of a participant under this pension plan is equal to the value of his insurance contract, and any investment risk under a participant’s insurance contract is borne by the participant. All premium contributions required to be made to each insurance company with respect to the pension plan for employees of SafeNet, B.V., under the terms of the applicable insurance contract as of the Closing Date have been made or have been properly accrued on the Current Assets and the Total Liabilities of the Business as of the Closing Date. The pension benefit for employees of SFNT Finland OY is mandated by the Government of Finland. SFNT Finland Oy’s premium contribution obligations in connection with such pension benefit are determined by the Kansaneläkelaitos and this pension benefit is funded solely through premium contributions payable to the Kansaneläkelaitos. All premium contributions required to be made to the Kansaneläkelaitos as of the Closing Date have been made or have been properly accrued on the Current Assets and the Total Liabilities of the Business as of the Closing Date. With respect to all other Foreign Plans that cover Transferred Employees, the Company shall retain all obligations and liabilities under or relating to such Foreign Plans, and Buyer shall assume none thereof.

(f) None of the Foreign Plans obligate an OEM Subsidiary to provide any employee or former employee, director or contractor or their spouses, family members or beneficiaries, any retirement pay, post-employment or post-retirement health or life insurance, accident or other “welfare-type” benefits in excess of those required under applicable Law.

(g) The consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will not (either alone or in conjunction with another event, such as a termination of employment or other services) entitle any Business Employee or other person to receive severance or other compensation which would not otherwise be payable absent the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or cause the vesting or acceleration of the time of payment of any award or entitlement under any Employee Benefit Plan or Foreign Plan.

(h) Except as set forth in Section 8.1(h) of the Disclosure Schedule, no Foreign Plans offer severance benefits in excess of those required by applicable Law.

(i) Except as set forth in Section 8.1(i) of the Disclosure Schedule, no employee of an OEM Subsidiary and no other Transferred Employee is entitled to any payment by reason of a change in ownership of the OEM Subsidiaries, or a bonus (e.g., a retention bonus) for continuing employment through a certain date.

(j) With respect to the Foreign Plans, there are no unaccrued liabilities.

8.2 The Company’s Employee Benefit Plans.

(a) Notwithstanding anything in this agreement to the contrary, except as provided in Section 2.3(b), the Company shall retain all obligations and liabilities under or relating to the Employee Benefit Plans, and Buyer shall assume none thereof.

(b) The Company shall be responsible for satisfying obligations under Part 6 of Subtitle B of Title I of ERISA and Section 4980B of the Code, to provide continuation coverage and notice of such coverage to individuals located in the United States and their eligible dependents who suffer a “qualifying event” on or before the Closing Date, including the closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

8.3 Employee Matters.

(a) On the Closing Date, the Company and the Buyer shall agree on, and the Company will provide, an updated list of all Business Employees. Effective as of the Closing Date, Buyer shall offer employment to each Business Employee (other than (i) any individual not in active employment as of the Closing Date, including, but not limited to, any individual on leave for any reason or (ii) employees employed with the Dutch Sub or the Finnish Sub on the Closing Date) at no less than such Business Employee’s then current annual rate of compensation and bonus opportunity and on such other terms and conditions as are provided to similarly-situated employees of Buyer. Business Employees who accept Buyer’s offer of employment (other than employees employed with the Dutch Sub or the Finnish Sub on the Closing Date) are referred to as “Transferred Employees.” The employees employed with the Dutch Sub and the Finnish Sub on the Closing Date will continue their current employment arrangement, with the same terms and conditions as are applicable on the Closing Date.

(b) Subject to the terms of the Transition Services Agreement, Buyer shall be responsible for all salaries, wages, bonuses, sales commissions, vacation pay, paid time off, payroll taxes liabilities, severance obligations, and other liabilities, obligations and commitments with respect to the Transferred Employees arising after the Closing Date.

(c) With respect to any Transferred Employee (and beneficiaries thereof) who was covered by a medical, dental or health plan maintained by the Company or its controlled Affiliates (the “Old Coverage”) immediately before the Closing Date (each, a “Covered Individual”), Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause its benefits providers to (i) waive all pre-existing conditions, exclusions and waiting periods with respect to participation and coverage requirements applicable to each Covered Individual under Buyer’s or its Affiliates’ group health coverage, other than conditions, exclusions or waiting periods that are already in effect with respect to any such Covered Individual under the Old Coverage that have not been satisfied as of the date such new coverage is put in place, and (ii) provide each such Covered Individual with credit for any deductibles and co-payments applied or made with respect to him or her under the Old Coverage (to the same extent that such credit was given under such Old Coverage prior to the date such new coverage was put in place) in satisfying any applicable deductible or out-of-pocket requirements under any such plans in which such individuals may be eligible to participate after the Closing Date; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply to the extent it would result in an unintended duplication of benefits.

(d) Buyer shall, or shall cause its Affiliate to, provide benefits to each Transferred Employee that are no less favorable than the benefits being provided to similarly situated employees of Buyer on the Closing Date for a period of one year after the Closing Date, as long as such Transferred Employee remains an employee of Buyer or its Affiliates during such period.

(e) Buyer shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, give the Transferred Employees full credit for purposes of eligibility and vesting under the employee benefit plans and arrangements (including employee benefit plans within the meaning of Section 3(3) of ERISA, paid time off accruals, short-term disability programs and severance plans or arrangements) maintained or sponsored by Buyer or any of its Affiliates in which the Transferred Employees participate on or after the Closing Date for services rendered by such employees to the Company or its controlled Affiliates before the Closing Date, except to the extent such credit would result in an unintended duplication of benefits. Other than benefit accruals for paid time off, no service credit shall be provided for purposes of benefit accruals under any of Buyer’s employee benefit plans.

(f) As soon as practicable after the Closing Date, Buyer shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, with respect to each Transferred Employee, permit each such employee to elect to rollover his or her account balance (in the form of cash and notes associated with plan loans) from any Employee Benefit Plan that is qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code in which such employee participated before the Closing Date to a defined contribution plan that is qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code and sponsored by Buyer or one of its Affiliates after the Closing Date (the “Receiving Plan”); provided, that (i) such distributions are eligible rollover distributions as defined in Section 402(c)(4) of the Code, (ii) such rollovers do not conflict with the terms of the Receiving Plan, and (iii) such rollovers will not cause unreasonable administrative hardship for the Receiving Plan. Buyer shall take or cause to be taken all reasonable actions necessary and desirable to effect this Section 8.3(f).

(g) To the extent that any Business Employee does not become an employee of Buyer or its Affiliates as of the Closing Date pursuant to Buyer’s offer of employment (the “Remaining Employees”), the Company will not, and will cause its controlled Affiliates not, to take any action primarily intended to cause the Remaining Employees not to become employees of Buyer or its Affiliates pursuant to Buyer’s offer of employment. Furthermore, for as long as such Remaining Employees are employees of the Company or the Company Group after the Closing Date, the Company shall, or shall cause its controlled Affiliates to, use commercially reasonable efforts to cause each Remaining Employee to continue to provide services to the Business in the ordinary course and consistent with past practices until the earlier of (i) the date which the Remaining Employee becomes an employee of Buyer or its Affiliates pursuant to Buyer’s offer of employment and (ii) six (6) months after the Closing Date; provided, that Buyer shall reimburse the Company or its controlled Affiliates for all reasonable employee related costs of the Remaining Employee during the period for which the Remaining Employee is providing services to the Business.

(h) This Agreement is not intended by the parties to constitute a plan amendment to or create any obligations of the parties with respect to any Employee Benefit Plan or Foreign Plan.

(i) The determination of the 2009 bonuses owing to the Transferred Employees shall be made by the Company pursuant to the terms of the applicable bonus plan. Buyer shall provide any information necessary to calculate such 2009 bonuses to the Company upon the Company’s request. Buyer shall pay all 2009 bonuses owing to the Transferred Employees to the extent such bonuses were reserved for or reflected on the Final Closing Date Statement.

ARTICLE IX

INDEMNIFICATION

9.1 Survival of Representations, Warranties and Covenants. Regardless of any investigation at any time made by or on behalf of any party, or of any information any party may have in respect thereof, all representations and warranties made hereunder or under the Collateral Agreements and the covenants and agreements of Buyer and the Company contained in this Agreement to be performed prior to Closing shall survive the Closing for a period of 24 months from the Closing Date, except those representations and warranties set forth in Section 7.1 (Tax Representations), which shall survive thirty (30) days after the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations, and in Section 4.11 (Intellectual Property) and Section 8.1 (Employee Benefits Representations), which shall survive until the third anniversary of the Closing Date, and except those representations and warranties set forth in Section 4.1 (Organization and Good Standing), Section 4.2 (Authorization of Agreements), the first three sentences of Section 4.4 (Ownership of Purchased Assets), Section 4.5 (Subsidiaries) and Section 4.6 (Capitalization), which shall survive without expiration; provided, however, that as to any matters with respect to which a bona fide written claim shall have been made or an action at law or in equity shall have commenced before the end of such period, survival shall continue (but only with respect to, and to the extent of, such claim) until the final resolution of such claim or action, including all applicable periods for appeal.

9.2 Indemnification by the Company.

(a) Subject to the other provisions of this Article IX, from and after the Closing, the Company shall indemnify and hold Buyer, the OEM Subsidiaries and each of their Representatives (collectively, the “Buyer Indemnified Parties”) harmless from and against any and all claims, demands, losses, liabilities, damages or expenses, including interest, penalties and reasonable attorneys’, accountants’ and experts’ fees and costs of investigation and defense (including the reasonable cost of time spent by employees) (individually, a “Loss” and, collectively, “Losses”) incurred or suffered by the Buyer Indemnified Parties and resulting from or arising out of any:

(i) breach of the representations or warranties made by the Company in this Agreement, any Collateral Agreement or any schedule or exhibit hereto or thereto;

(ii) breach of any covenant or agreement on the part of the Company applicable to the period after Closing made in this Agreement or any Collateral Agreement (subject to any applicable limitations provided in any Collateral Agreements); and

(iii) Excluded Liability.

(b) Buyer shall take and shall cause their Affiliates to take all reasonable steps to mitigate any Loss upon becoming aware of any event which would reasonably be expected to, or does, give rise thereto, but the amount expended to mitigate a Loss shall be included in the amount of the Loss subject to indemnification. No liability accrued for on the Final Closing Date Statement shall be the subject of an indemnification claim, to the extent of the accrual.

9.3 Indemnification by Buyer.

(a) Subject to the other provisions of this Article IX, from and after the Closing, Buyer hereby agree to indemnify and hold the Company harmless from and against any and all Losses incurred or suffered by the Company and resulting from or arising out of any:

(i) breach of the representations or warranties made by Buyer in this Agreement, any Collateral Agreement, or any schedule or agreement hereto or thereto;

(ii) breach of any covenant or agreement on the part of Buyer made in this Agreement or in any Collateral Agreement (subject to any applicable limitations provided in any Collateral Agreements);

(iii) Assumed Liabilities; and

(iv) Buyer’s ownership or operation of the Business from and after the Closing Date (except to the extent arising out of an Excluded Liability).

(b) The Company shall take and shall cause its controlled Affiliates to take all reasonable steps to mitigate any Loss upon becoming aware of any event which would reasonably be expected to, or does, give rise thereto, but the amount expended to mitigate a Loss shall be included in the amount of the Loss subject to indemnification.

9.4 Claim Procedures.

(a) Any party seeking indemnification pursuant to this Article IX (the “Indemnified Party”) shall promptly notify in writing (an “Indemnity Notice”) the other party or parties from whom such indemnification is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) of the Indemnified Party’s assertion or a third party’s assertion of any claim with respect to which the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article relate, providing in reasonable detail the facts giving rise to such claim, a statement of the Indemnified Party’s Loss to the extent then known, and an estimate of the amount of Losses that the Indemnified Party reasonably anticipates it will suffer or incur (provided that the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any fees or expenses that could have been avoided before its receipt of the Indemnity Notice).

(b) With respect to any third party claim for which an Indemnified Party is seeking indemnification hereunder (a “Third Party Claim”), the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense thereof. The Indemnifying Party may also assume the defense of any Third Party Claim with counsel selected by it. Should the Indemnifying Party so elect to assume the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall, subject to the other provisions of this Section 9.4, not be liable to any Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof, absent the exceptions noted below. If the Indemnifying Party assumes such defense, each Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in the defense thereof and to employ counsel, at its own expense (subject to the following sentence), separate from the counsel employed by the Indemnifying Party, it being understood and agreed that the Indemnifying Party shall control such defense. The Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of one outside counsel (and not any fees and expenses allocated to any internal counsel) employed by all Indemnified Parties (which outside counsel shall be reasonably acceptable to the Indemnifying Party) (i) for any period during which the Indemnifying Party has not assumed the defense thereof (other than during any period in which the Indemnified Parties shall have failed to give notice of the Third Party Claim as provided above) or (ii) if the Indemnified Parties are advised by counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnifying Party that there exists any actual or potential conflict of interests between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Parties. If the Indemnifying Party chooses to defend or prosecute a Third Party Claim, all the Indemnified Parties shall cooperate in the defense or prosecution thereof. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the Indemnifying Party’s request) the provision to the Indemnifying Party of records and information that are reasonably relevant to such Third Party Claim, and making Representatives available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of a Third Party Claim, each Indemnified Party shall not admit any liability with respect to, or settle, compromise or discharge, such Third Party Claim without the Indemnifying Party’s prior written consent. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of a Third Party Claim, each Indemnified Party shall agree to any settlement, compromise or discharge of a Third Party Claim (A) that the Indemnifying Party may recommend, (B) that does not encumber any assets of such Indemnified Party or impose any equitable remedy or other restriction or condition that would adversely affect such Indemnified Party or the conduct of such Indemnified Party’s business, (C) that does not require the Indemnified Party to provide a third party a license to use a Purchased Asset or asset of an OEM Subsidiary or otherwise waive or modify a material legal right, and (D) that by its terms obligates the Indemnifying Party to pay the full amount of the liability in connection with such Third Party Claim and releases such Indemnified Party completely in connection with such Third Party Claim.

9.5 Limitations on Indemnification Obligations.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, the Company shall not be liable for any Losses pursuant to this Agreement arising out of or based upon any breach of a representation or warranty made in or pursuant to this Agreement, any Collateral Agreement, or any schedule or agreement hereto or thereto to the extent such Losses, in an aggregate amount, if added to all other amounts paid as indemnification payments by the Company (x) for breaches of representations or warranties in this Agreement, any Collateral Agreement, or any schedule or agreement hereto or thereto and (y) under the Business IP Licensing Agreement, the SafeNet Mark Licensing Agreement and the Sentinel Licensing Agreement, would exceed $2,837,500 (the “Cap”); provided, however, that the foregoing limitation shall not apply to breaches of representations and warranties set forth in Section 4.1, Section 4.2, the first three sentences of Section 4.4, Section 4.5, Section 4.6, Section 4.17 and Section 7.1, the liability in respect of any such breach to be capped at the amount of the Purchase Price actually paid in cash to the Company.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, the Company shall not be required to indemnify Buyer for any Losses pursuant to this Agreement arising out of or based upon any breach of a representation or warranty made in or pursuant to this Agreement, any Collateral Agreement, or any schedule or agreement hereto or thereto unless (i) each such individual Loss or series of related Losses is at least $5,000 (all Losses and series of related Losses less than such amount, an “Excluded Claim”), and (ii) until the aggregate amount of all such Losses (excluding all Excluded Claims) for which Buyer is otherwise entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 9.2(a)(i) exceeds $113,500 (the “Deductible”), upon which the Company shall be liable for all Losses other than Excluded Claims from the first dollar of Loss (but not to exceed, in the aggregate for all Losses, the Cap as set forth in Section 9.5(a)), except that the Deductible shall not apply to breaches of representations and warranties set forth in Section 4.1, Section 4.2, the first three sentences of Section 4.4, Section 4.5, Section 4.6, Section 4.17 and Section 7.1. For the avoidance of any doubt, no Excluded Claim shall be included in the determination of whether the Deductible has been exceeded.

(c) For purposes solely of calculating Losses in connection with a claim for indemnification under this Article IX, each of the surviving representations and warranties that contains any qualifications as to “materiality” or “Material Adverse Effect” shall be deemed to have been given as though there were not such qualifications, and any such qualifications shall be disregarded for purposes of this Article IX. For purposes of clarification, the amount of Losses for which an Indemnified Party may be entitled to recover pursuant to this Article IX in respect of a breach by an Indemnifying Party, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, of a surviving representation or warranty that is qualified by “materiality” or Material Adverse Effect shall not be reduced solely due to the fact that such representation or warranty was so qualified; provided, however, that neither the terms of this sentence nor any other provision hereunder shall have the effect of changing, amending or modifying any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement (or any other term or provision contained in this Agreement) for any purpose hereunder, including whether any breach of any such representation or warranty qualified by “materiality” or “Material Adverse Effect” hereunder is subject to the limitations or thresholds set forth in this Article IX; and provided further, however, that any representation or warranty hereunder that is qualified by “materiality” or “Material Adverse Effect” shall remain so qualified when determining whether any such representation or warranty was breached.

(d) In no event shall any party have any liability pursuant to this Article IX for any consequential, special, incidental, indirect or punitive damages, lost revenue, profits or income, diminution in value, loss of business reputation or opportunity or similar costs unless awarded to a third party in a Third Party Claim.

9.6 Additional Indemnification Provisions. With respect to the indemnification obligation set forth in this Article XI: (a) all Losses shall be net of any third-party insurance proceeds recovered in cash, net of directly related premium adjustments, by the Indemnified Party in connection with the facts giving rise to the right of indemnification, and (b) each party shall use reasonable efforts to mitigate any Losses for which that party seeks indemnification pursuant to this Article IX. In any case where an Indemnified Party recovers from a third party any amount in respect of a matter for which an Indemnifying Party has previously indemnified it pursuant to this Article IX, the Indemnified Party shall promptly pay over to the Indemnifying Party the amount so recovered (after deducting therefrom the amount of expenses incurred by it in procuring such recovery), but not in excess of the sum of (i) any amount previously paid by the Indemnifying Party to or on behalf of the Indemnified Party in respect of such claim and (ii) any amount expended by the Indemnifying Party in pursuing or defending any claim arising out of such matter. Upon payment in full of any such amounts recovered, the Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment to the rights of the Indemnified Party against any Person (other than an Indemnified Party) with respect to the subject matter of such claim. Any Indemnified Party shall assign or otherwise reasonably cooperate with the Indemnifying Party to pursue any claims against, or otherwise recover amounts from, any Person liable or responsible for any Losses for which indemnification has been received pursuant to this Agreement.

Each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that the other parties hereto would be damaged irreparably in the event any of the provisions of this Agreement are not performed in accordance with their specific terms or otherwise are breached. Accordingly, each of the parties agrees that the other parties shall be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of the provisions of this Agreement and to enforce specifically this Agreement and the terms and provisions hereof in any action instituted in any court pursuant to Section 10.5, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they may be entitled, at law or in equity.
