(a)  Within forty-five (45) calendar days following the Closing Date, Parent shall cause PricewaterhouseCoopers (“PWC”) to prepare and deliver to the Stockholders Representative and Parent a statement (the “Company Closing Statement”), setting forth PWC’s determination of Company Net Working Capital.  The Company Closing Statement shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP applied on a basis consistent with the preparation of the Company Financial Statements, except for those adjustments to Net Working Capital that are set forth on Section 10.03 of the Company Disclosure Letter.

(b)  Following receipt of the Company Closing Statement, the Stockholders Representative will be afforded a period of forty-five (45) calendar days (the “Company 45-Day Period”) to review the Company Closing Statement.  At or before the end of the Company 45-Day Period, the Stockholders Representative may either (i) accept the Company Closing Statement, and the computation of Company Net Working Capital, in its entirety, or (ii) deliver to Parent a written notice (the “Company Objection Notice”) containing a reasonably detailed written explanation of those items in the Company Closing Statement which the Stockholders Representative disputes, in which case the items specifically identified by the Stockholders Representative shall be deemed to be in dispute.  The failure by the Stockholders Representative to deliver the Company Objection Notice within the Company 45-Day Period shall constitute the Stockholders Representative’s acceptance of the Company Closing Statement and the computation of Company Net Working Capital, in its entirety.  If the Stockholders Representative delivers the Company Objection Notice in a timely manner, then, within a further period of thirty (30) calendar days from the end of the Company 45-Day Period, the parties and, if desired, their accountants will attempt to resolve in good faith any disputed items and reach a written agreement (the “Company Settlement Agreement”) with respect thereto.  Failing such resolution, the unresolved disputed items will be referred for final binding resolution to a mutually agreeable, nationally recognized accounting firm with whom neither Parent, any Parent Subsidiary, the Company, any Company Subsidiary, the Stockholders Representative nor any of their respective affiliates has had a material relationship during the eighteen (18)-month period prior to the date hereof, which such firm will be mutually agreed upon as promptly as practicable, or such other persons as the parties may mutually agree (the “Accounting Arbitrator”), the fees and expenses of which shall be allocated to and borne by the Stockholders Representative and Parent based on the inverse of the percentage that the Accounting Arbitrator’s determination (before such allocation) bears to the total amount of the total unresolved disputed items as originally submitted to the Accounting Arbitrator.  For example, should the items in dispute total in amount to $1,000 and the Accounting Arbitrator awards $600 in favor of the Stockholders Representative’s position, 60% of the costs of its review would be borne by Parent and 40% of the costs would be borne by the Stockholders Representative.  The Accounting Arbitrator shall be given reasonable access to all relevant records to calculate the Company Net Working Capital.  Such determination by the Accounting Arbitrator (the “Company Net Working Capital Determination”) shall be (i) in writing, (ii) furnished to the parties as soon as practicable after the items in dispute have been referred to the Accounting Arbitrator, (iii) made in accordance with GAAP applied on a basis consistent with the preparation of the Company Financial Statements, except for those adjustments to Net Working Capital that are set forth on Section 10.03 of the Company Disclosure Letter, and (iv) nonappealable and incontestable by the parties hereto and each of their respective affiliates and successors and assigns and not subject to collateral attack for any reason other than manifest error or fraud.  As used herein “Company Closing Net Working Capital” means the Company Net Working Capital as finally determined in accordance with this Section 2.03.
 
(c)  For purposes of this Agreement, the “Company Determination Date” shall mean the earliest to occur of (i) the forty-sixth (46th) day following the receipt by the Stockholders Representative of the Company Closing Statement if the Stockholders Representative shall have failed to deliver the Company Objection Notice to Parent within the Company 45-Day Period, (ii) the date on which either Parent or the Stockholders Representative gives the other a written notice to the effect that such party has no objection to the other party’s determination of the Company Closing Statement, (iii) the date on which Parent and the Stockholders Representative execute and deliver a Company Settlement Agreement and (iv) the date as of which Parent and the Stockholders Representative shall have received the Company Net Working Capital Determination.

(d)  If the Company Closing Net Working Capital is less than the Company Net Working Capital Target, then payment of the difference between the Company Net Working Capital Target and the Company Closing Net Working Capital (the “Company Shortfall”) shall, within three (3) business days after the Company Determination Date, be paid by the Stockholders to Parent.  Parent shall first recover the Company Shortfall from the Working Capital Escrow Funds (and if recovery is to be a portion of the Note, then the principal amount of the Note so recovered shall be equal to the Company Shortfall multiplied by the Conversion Premium).  If the Working Capital Escrow Funds are not sufficient to cover the Company Shortfall then Parent shall have the right to first recover the Company Shortfall (less the Working Capital Escrow Funds received pursuant to this Section), calculated in accordance with the preceding sentence, directly from the Indemnity Escrow Funds and, if the Indemnity Escrow Funds are not sufficient, from the Stockholders for their Pro Rata Share of such amount from the principal amount of the Note received pursuant to the Merger (and if any recovery of the Company Shortfall pursuant to this sentence shall be a portion of the Note, then the principal amount of the Note so recovered shall be equal to the portion of the Company Shortfall being recovered multiplied by the Conversion Premium).  If the Working Capital Escrow Funds are in excess of the value of the Company Shortfall, then such excess shall be distributed to the Stockholders in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement.
 
(e)  If the Company Closing Net Working Capital is greater than the Company Net Working Capital Target, then the Company shall not be entitled to any additional payment.  Furthermore, if there is no Company Shortfall, then the Working Capital Escrow Funds shall be distributed to the Stockholders in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement.
 
Section 2.04.  Escrow and Exchange Agent, Escrow Agreement and Exchange Agreements.
 
(a)  Parent will deposit with the Escrow and Exchange Agent immediately prior to the Effective Time, (i) the Notes, minus the principal amount of Notes comprising the Escrow Funds, (ii) the aggregate number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the Stock Consideration issuable to the Stockholders pursuant to this Article II in the Merger, and (iii) any cash in lieu of fractional shares as provided by Section 2.05(e) (collectively, the “Closing Disbursement”).  Such Closing Disbursement will be placed by the Escrow and Exchange Agent in a separate account under the Exchange Agent Agreement (the “Exchange Fund”) for disbursement as set forth in Section 2.04(e) and Section 2.01.  Parent shall also make available to the Exchange Agent, in addition to the Exchange Fund, from time to time as needed, cash sufficient to pay cash in lieu of fractional shares in accordance with Section 2.05(e).  At the Closing, Parent will deliver to the Stockholder Representative the Note to hold on behalf of the Stockholders and each Stockholder’s proportionate interest in the Note set forth on the Merger Consideration Allocation Schedule shall not vest until such Stockholder has surrendered all of its Company Capital Stock and Company Promissory Note, if any, pursuant to a properly executed Letter of Transmittal delivered to the Escrow and Exchange Agent.

(b)  In the event the stockholders of Parent approve the Note Satisfaction on or before the Note Maturity Date, Parent will make available to the Escrow and Exchange Agent, as soon as commercially practicable but in any event no later than three business days after the date of the approval of the Note Satisfaction, that number of shares of Parent Common Stock issuable upon the Note Satisfaction (the “Note Satisfaction Shares” and with the Stock Consideration, the “Shares”), for disbursement as set forth in this Article II.
 
(c)  In the event the stockholders of Parent fail to approve the Note Satisfaction at the Parent Stockholders Meeting or on or before the Note Maturity Date, Parent will deposit with the Escrow and Exchange Agent an amount in cash equal to the principal amount of the Note as soon as commercially practicable but in any event no later than three business days after the date of the Parent Stockholders Meeting at which the stockholders of Parent failed to approve the Note Satisfaction and in all events on or before the Note Maturity Date, for payment as set forth in this Article II, which amount will be paid to the Stockholder Representative in satisfaction of the Note in full for disbursement to the Stockholders in accordance with their Pro Rata Share.
 
(d)  Concurrently with the Closing, and pursuant to applicable provisions of the Escrow Agreement, the Escrow and Exchange Agent will establish an escrow account (the “Escrow Account”) to hold the Indemnity Escrow Funds and the Working Capital Escrow Funds, if any (collectively, the “Escrow Funds”), in trust pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, which funds will be payable to the Stockholders or Parent, as the case may be, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement.  On the Closing Date, Parent shall deposit in the Escrow Account out of the Notes a principal amount of Notes equal to (i) $3,764,021.98 (the “Indemnity Escrow Funds”) and (ii) the Working Capital Escrow Funds, if any.
 
(e)  Promptly after each of the Effective Time and the earlier of the Parent Stockholders Meeting or the Note Maturity Date, as the case may be, Parent will issue or pay, or will cause the Escrow and Exchange Agent to issue or pay, to the Stockholders the applicable portion of the Merger Consideration set forth on the Merger Consideration Allocation Schedule in accordance with Sections 2.01 and 2.05(b) and other applicable provisions of this Agreement, the Exchange Agreement and the Escrow Agreement.

(ii)           As soon as practicable after the Effective Time but in no event later than five business days thereafter, Parent will mail, or will cause the Escrow and Exchange Agent to mail, to each Stockholder who did not deliver a Letter of Transmittal at the Effective Time at the respective addresses set forth on the Merger Consideration Allocation Schedule the following: (I) a letter of transmittal substantially in the form attached hereto as Annex F (the “Letter of Transmittal”) (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates to the Escrow and Exchange Agent and shall be in such form and have such other provisions as Parent and the Stockholders Representative may agree to specify) and (II) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates in exchange for Merger Consideration, which shall be attached to the Letter of Transmittal.

(b)  Surrender of Certificates.  Upon surrender of a Certificate and a Company Promissory Note, as the case may be, for cancellation to the Escrow and Exchange Agent, together with such Letter of Transmittal, duly executed, and such other documents as may reasonably be required by the Escrow and Exchange Agent, the holder of such Certificate and Company Promissory Note, as the case may be, shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor that portion of the Merger Consideration set forth on the Merger Consideration Allocation Schedule (together with cash in lieu of fractional shares) that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to the provisions of this Article II, and the Certificate and Company Promissory Note, as the case may be, so surrendered shall forthwith be canceled.  Until such time as (i) a holder of a Certificate and a Company Promissory Note shall have duly executed and delivered a Letter of Transmittal to Parent or the Escrow and Exchange Agent in respect of such Certificate and Company Promissory Note and (ii) that portion of the Merger Consideration set forth on the Merger Consideration Allocation Schedule is issued to or at the direction of the holder of a surrendered Certificate or Company Promissory Note, such Merger Consideration that would be issuable to the holder of such Certificate or Company Promissory Note shall not be issued to such holder, shall not be deemed not outstanding and shall not be entitled to vote on any matter.  In the event of a transfer of ownership of Company Capital Stock or Company Promissory Note that is not registered in the transfer records of the Company, the Merger Consideration may be issued to a person other than the person in whose name the Certificate or Company Promissory Note so surrendered is registered, if such Certificate or Company Promissory Note shall be properly endorsed or otherwise be in proper form for transfer and the person requesting such payment shall pay any transfer or other taxes required by reason of the issuance of the Merger Consideration to a person other than the registered holder of such Certificate or Company Promissory Note or establish to the satisfaction of Parent that such tax has been paid or is not applicable.  Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 2.05, each Certificate or Company Promissory Note shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender Merger Consideration as contemplated by this Section 2.05.  No interest shall be paid or accrue on any cash payable in lieu of any fractional shares of Parent Common Stock upon surrender of any Certificate or Company Promissory Note.

(c)  Distributions with Respect to Unexchanged Shares.  No dividends or other distributions with respect to Parent Common Stock with a record date after the Effective Time shall be paid to the holder of any Certificate formerly representing Company Capital Stock or Company Promissory Note with respect to the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable upon surrender thereof, and no cash payment in lieu of fractional shares shall be paid to any such holder pursuant to Section 2.05(e), until the surrender of such Certificate or Company Promissory Note in accordance with this Article II.  Subject to applicable Law, following surrender of any such Certificate or Company Promissory Note, there shall be paid to the holder of the Certificate or Company Promissory Note representing the Merger Consideration issued in exchange therefor, without interest, (i) at the time of such surrender, the amount of any cash payable in lieu of a fractional share of Parent Common Stock to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 2.05(e) and the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time theretofore paid with respect to such whole shares of Parent Common Stock that are included in the Merger Consideration that is payable to such holder, and (ii) at the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time but prior to such surrender and a payment date subsequent to such surrender payable with respect to such whole shares of Parent Common Stock that are included in the Merger Consideration that is payable to such holder.
 
(d)  No Further Ownership Rights in Company Capital Stock.  The Merger Consideration issued (and paid) in accordance with the terms of this Article II upon conversion of any shares of Company Capital Stock shall be deemed to have been issued (and paid) in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such shares of Company Capital Stock, subject, however, to the Surviving Corporation’s obligation to pay any dividends or make any other distributions with a record date prior to the Effective Time that may have been declared or made by the Company on such shares of Company Capital Stock in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or prior to the date of this Agreement and which remain unpaid at the Effective Time, and after the Effective Time there shall be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Corporation of shares of Company Capital Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time.  If, after the Effective Time, any Certificates formerly representing shares of Company Capital Stock or Company Promissory Notes are presented to the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent for any reason, they shall be canceled and exchanged as provided in this Article II.
 
(e)  No Fractional Shares.

11

 
 
(2)  In lieu of any such remaining fractional shares after aggregation as set forth above, each holder of Company Capital Stock who would otherwise be entitled to such fractional shares shall be entitled to an amount in cash, without interest, rounded to the nearest cent, equal to the product of (A) the amount of the fractional share interest in a share of Parent Common Stock to which such holder is entitled under Section 2.01(c) (or would be entitled but for this Section 2.05(e)) and (B) the Average VWAP of the Parent Common Stock.
 
(3)  As soon as practicable after the determination of the amount of cash, if any, to be paid to holders of Company Capital Stock in lieu of any fractional share interests in Parent Common Stock, the Exchange Agent shall make available such amounts, without interest, to the holders of Company Capital Stock entitled to receive such cash.
 
(f)  Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates.  In the event that any Certificates have been lost, stolen or destroyed, the Escrow and Exchange Agent may, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the issuance of any Merger Consideration in respect thereof, require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate (i) to provide an affidavit of such loss, theft or destruction in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Escrow and Exchange Agent and any additional documentation reasonably requested by the Escrow and Exchange Agent, (ii) to indemnify and hold harmless Parent from and against any claim that may be made against Parent or its affiliates with respect to the Certificates alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed, and/or (iii) to provide a sufficient indemnity bond in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Escrow and Exchange Agent.  It is understood and agreed that the Company Promissory Notes were issued as .pdf files in electronic form without original execution copies, and that a Company Promissory Note may be surrendered by delivering a printed copy of the .pdf file embodying such Company Promissory Note.
 
(g)  Termination of Exchange Fund.  Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains undistributed to the holders of Company Capital Stock for twelve months after the Effective Time shall be delivered to Parent, upon demand, and any holder of Company Capital Stock who has not theretofore complied with this Article II shall thereafter look only to Parent for payment of its claim for Merger Consideration and any dividends or distributions with respect to Parent Common Stock as contemplated by Section 2.05(c).
 
(h)  No Liability.  None of Parent, Sub, the Company, the Stockholders Representative or the Exchange Agent shall be liable to any person in respect of any shares of Parent Common Stock (or dividends or distributions with respect thereto) or cash from the Exchange Fund delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.  If any Certificate or Company Promissory Note has not been surrendered prior to three years after the Effective Time (or immediately prior to such earlier date on which Merger Consideration or any dividends or distributions with respect to Parent Common Stock as contemplated by Section 2.05(c) in respect of such Certificate or Company Promissory Note would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Entity), any such shares, cash, dividends or distributions in respect of such Certificate or Company Promissory Note shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of the Surviving Corporation, free and clear of all claims or interest of any person previously entitled thereto.
 
 
12

 
 
(i)  Investment of Exchange Fund.  The Exchange Agent shall invest any cash included in the Exchange Fund, as directed by Parent, on a daily basis.  Any interest and other income resulting from such investments shall be paid to Parent.
 
(j)  Securities Law Compliance.  The Stock Consideration, the Note and, if applicable, the Note Satisfaction Shares will be issued in a transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act by reason of Section 4(2) thereof and/or Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act and may not be re-offered or resold other than in conformity with the registration requirements of the Securities Act and such other applicable rules and regulations or pursuant to an exemption therefrom.  The certificates representing shares of Parent Common Stock and the Note will be legended as follows:
 
“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS [CERTIFICATE]/[NOTE] HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”) AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF UNLESS THEY HAVE BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE ACT OR UPON RECEIPT BY AUTHENTEC, INC. OF AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO IT THAT SOME OTHER EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE ACT IS AVAILABLE.”

Such certificates will also include such additional legends as necessary to comply with applicable foreign, federal and state securities laws.  The certificates representing the Shares will be subject to a stop transfer order with the Parent’s transfer agent that restricts the transfer of such Shares except in compliance with this Agreement and the Stockholders Agreement.

(e)  Nothing in this Agreement (i) shall require Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their Subsidiaries to continue to employ any particular employee of the Company or any Company Subsidiary following the Closing Date, or (ii) subject to Section 6.05(b), shall be construed to prohibit Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their Subsidiaries from amending or terminating any Company Benefit Plan.  No provision of this Agreement shall create any third party beneficiary rights in any employee of the Company or any Company Subsidiary, any beneficiary or dependents thereof, or any collective bargaining representative thereof, with respect to the compensation, terms and conditions of employment and benefits that may be provided to any employee of the Company or any Company Subsidiary by Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their affiliates or under any benefit plan which any of them may maintain, or otherwise.

(b)  For a period of six years after the Effective Time, Parent shall cause to be maintained in effect the current policies of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance maintained by the Company with respect to claims arising from or related to facts or events which occurred at or before the Effective Time, a copy of which has been provided to Parent; provided, however, that Parent shall not be obligated to make annual premium payments for such insurance to the extent such premiums exceed 200% of the annual premiums paid as of the date hereof by the Company for such insurance (the “Current Premium”).  The Current Premium is disclosed on Section 6.06 of the Company Disclosure Letter.  If such insurance coverage cannot be obtained at all, or can only be obtained at an annual premium in excess of 200% of the Current Premium, Parent shall maintain the most advantageous policies of directors’ and officers’ insurance obtainable for an annual premium equal to 200% of the Current Premium.
 
(c)  From and after the Effective Time, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, Parent shall, and shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, indemnify, defend and hold harmless (and comply with all of the Company’s existing obligations to advance funds for expenses to) the present and former officers and directors of the Company and its subsidiaries and any employee of the Company or its subsidiaries who acts as a fiduciary under any Company Benefit Plan (each an “Indemnified Party”) against all Losses, as incurred (payable monthly upon written request which request shall include reasonable evidence of the Losses set forth therein) to the extent arising from, relating to, or otherwise in respect of, any actual or threatened action, suit, proceeding or investigation, in respect of actions or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time in connection with such Indemnified Party’s duties as an officer or director of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, including in respect of this Agreement, any other Transaction Agreement, the Merger and the other Transactions.  If Parent or the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective successors or assigns shall (i) consolidate with or merge into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfer all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any person, then, and in each such case, proper provisions shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as the case may be, shall assume all of the obligations of Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as the case may be, set forth in Section 6.06.

(a)  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Parent will have the right to withhold all Taxes from payments to be made hereunder (including any payments in connection with the Exchange Agreement and the Escrow Agreement) if such withholding is required by Law, and to collect a FIRPTA Certificate, in the form reasonably satisfactory to Parent, from the Company and Forms W-8 or W-9 or other forms from the Stockholders to the extent required by any foreign, federal, state or local laws; provided, however, that Parent shall claim an exemption from FIRPTA withholding in the event it receives a FIRPTA certificate from the Company, in the form reasonably satisfactory to Parent.  The parties intend that (i) the Merger will be treated as a taxable transaction and not as a “reorganization” for federal income tax purposes and (ii) all of the Merger Consideration will be treated for federal income tax purposes as payments in exchange for the Company Capital Stock or Company Promissory Notes owned by the Stockholders. The parties agree to report the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in a manner consistent with that intent.  Parent will take no action inconsistent with such intended treatment, including merging the Company into Parent or any direct or indirect subsidiary of Parent in connection with the Merger; provided, however, that in no event will the approval of the Note Satisfaction be construed as an action inconsistent with the treatment of the Merger as a taxable transaction.
 
(b)  Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall prepare, or cause to be prepared, all Tax Returns of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries due after the Closing Date; provided, however, that with respect to any such Tax Return that relates to income Taxes for a period, or portion thereof, ending on or before the Closing Date, such Tax Returns shall be prepared, to the extent of applicable Law, in a manner consistent with the Company’s past practice, and Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, such Tax Return, together with supporting work papers, to the Stockholders Representative not less than 30 days prior to the due date (including all applicable extensions of time to file) of such Tax Return for the Stockholders Representative’s review and comment prior to filing.  Any disagreements between the Stockholders Representative, on the one hand, and Parent and the Surviving Corporation, on the other hand, shall be resolved by an independent accounting firm agreed upon by the Stockholders Representative, on the one hand, and Parent and the Surviving Corporation, on the other hand, and the costs of expenses shall be borne equally by each.  Parent shall not amend any Tax Return of the Company with respect to a period, or portion thereof, that ends on or prior to the Closing Date, without the consent of the Stockholder Representative, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, unless Parent is required to amend such Tax Return pursuant to applicable Law.
 
(c)  On or prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall have caused Upek Pte. Ltd. to be in compliance with all local country financial and tax requirements, including issuance of final statutory financial statements for the 2007 and 2008 years, and the filing of all required income and indirect Tax Returns and reports due on any date before the Closing Date.  The Company shall have provided written evidence of such compliance and filings to Parent on or prior to the Closing Date

Section 6.13.  Intentionally Omitted and Reserved .

57

 
 
Section 9.05.  Procedures.
 
(a)  In order for either Parent or the Stockholders Representative (on behalf of the Stockholders) (the “indemnified party”), to be entitled to any indemnification provided for under this Agreement in respect of, arising out of or involving a claim made by any person against the indemnified party (a “Third Party Claim”), such indemnified party must notify the indemnifying party (the “indemnifying party”) in writing (which notice shall specify in reasonable detail, the events giving rise to such Third Party Claim, that the indemnified party has accrued or reasonably anticipates that it will have to pay or accrue Losses, the amount of such Losses or reasonably anticipated Losses, and the specific representation, warranty or covenant on which such claim is based) of the Third Party Claim within ten (10) business days after receipt by such indemnified party of notice of the Third Party Claim; provided, however, that failure to give such notification shall not affect the indemnification provided hereunder except to the extent the indemnifying party shall have been actually prejudiced as a result of such failure.  Thereafter, the indemnified party shall deliver to the indemnifying party, within five business days’ time after the indemnified party’s receipt thereof, copies of all notices and documents (including court papers) received by the indemnified party relating to the Third Party Claim.
 
(b)  If a Third Party Claim is made against an indemnified party, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in the defense thereof and, if it so chooses, to assume the defense thereof with counsel selected by the indemnifying party. Should the indemnifying party so elect to assume the defense of a Third Party Claim, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to the indemnified party for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof; provided, however, that if the indemnified party reasonably believes, upon advice of counsel, there exists an actual conflict of interest between the indemnifying party and the indemnified party such that representation of both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party would be inappropriate, then the indemnified party may retain counsel of its own choice and the indemnifying party shall be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel.  If the indemnifying party assumes such defense, the indemnified party shall have the right to participate in the defense thereof and to employ counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, at its own expense, separate from the counsel employed by the indemnifying party, it being understood that the indemnifying party shall control such defense.  The indemnifying party shall be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel employed by the indemnified party for any period during which the indemnifying party has not assumed the defense thereof (other than during any period in which the indemnified party shall have failed to give notice of the Third Party Claim as provided above).  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 employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder.  Whether or not the indemnifying party assumes the defense of a Third Party Claim, the 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 (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).  If the indemnifying party assumes the defense of a Third Party Claim, the indemnified party shall agree to any settlement, compromise or discharge of a Third Party Claim that the indemnifying party may recommend and that by its terms obligates the indemnifying party to pay the full amount of the liability in connection with such Third Party Claim, which releases the indemnified party completely in connection with such Third Party Claim and that would not otherwise materially adversely affect the indemnified party.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) if (i) the indemnifying party does not assume the defense of a Third Party Claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party within fifteen (15) days from receipt of notice of such a Third Party Claim by indemnified party, or (ii) the indemnifying party assumes the defense of the Third Party Claim and, in the reasonable opinion of the indemnified party, fails to diligently prosecute such defense, and after delivery by the indemnified party of ten (10) business days advance notice to the indemnifying party alleging such failure to diligently prosecute, the indemnifying party shall not have modified the defense of such Third Party Claim so that it would be reasonably considered to be diligently prosecuting such defense, then the indemnified party shall have the right to control the defense or settlement of any such Third Party Claim or demand that its reasonable costs and expenses shall be included as part of the indemnification obligation of the indemnifying party or (B) if legal counsel for the indemnified party reasonably believes that there are or may be legal defenses available to the indemnified party which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, then the indemnified party and the indemnifying party shall jointly coordinate the defense of such Third Party Claim.  Furthermore, if in the reasonable opinion of the indemnified party (x) any such Third Party Claim or the litigation or resolution of any such Third Party Claim involves an issue or matter that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on the indemnified party, including the dispute with a customer listed in Section 3.22 of the Company Disclosure Letter and Section 4.15 of the Parent Disclosure Letter or one of Parent’s or the Company’s top ten suppliers by dollar value for 2009 or 2010 (through the date of this Agreement), or (y) the Third Party Claim could reasonably be expected to result in an award of injunctive relief against the indemnified party, the indemnified party shall have the right to control the defense or settlement of any such Third Party Claim and its reasonable costs and expenses shall be included as part of the indemnification obligation of the indemnifying party.

(c)  Other Claims.  In the event any indemnified party should have a claim against any indemnifying party under Section 9.01 or 9.02 that does not involve a Third Party Claim being asserted against or sought to be collected from such indemnified party, the indemnified party shall deliver notice of such claim with reasonable promptness to the indemnifying party.  The failure by any indemnified party so to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability that it may have to such indemnified party under Section 9.01 or 9.02, except to the extent that the indemnifying party demonstrates that it has been materially prejudiced by such failure.  If the indemnifying party disputes its liability with respect to such claim, the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall proceed in good faith to negotiate a resolution of such dispute and, if not resolved through negotiations, such dispute shall be resolved by litigation in an appropriate court of competent jurisdiction.
 
 
59

 
 
Section 9.06.  Release from Escrow Account.
 
(a)  In the event either Parent or the Stockholders Representative, as an indemnified party, shall have, prior to the expiration of the Escrow Termination Date, delivered a notice of a claim (a “Pending Claim”) in respect of indemnification hereunder to the Stockholder Representative or Parent, as the indemnifying party, such indemnified party and such indemnifying party shall negotiate in good faith to reach agreement with respect to (i) such indemnified party’s right to indemnification hereunder and the amount of such indemnified party’s Losses and (ii) in the event Parent is the indemnified party, the portion of the Indemnity Escrow Funds in the Escrow Account that should be reserved for, and in the event the Stockholders are the indemnified party, the amount of cash that should be reserved for on the Parent Financial Statements (collectively, the “Reserve Amount”) in respect of such Pending Claim prior to resolution of the matters in respect thereof described in clause (i).  If they are unable so to reach agreement any such dispute shall, subject to the terms of this Agreement, be resolved by litigation in an appropriate court of competent jurisdiction.  Pending a resolution of the Reserve Amount in respect of any claim, the Reserve Amount therefor shall be the amount of Losses asserted in good faith by the indemnified party in respect of such Pending Claim.
 
(b)  In the event Parent is the indemnified party, upon the resolution of the amount of the Parent’s Losses in respect of any Pending Claim, if any, the Stockholders Representative shall instruct the Escrow and Exchange Agent under the Escrow Agreement to deliver to Parent a portion of the Indemnity Escrow Funds equal to the amount of such Losses and, (i) in the event that the portion of Indemnity Escrow Funds being delivered is a Note, the Escrow and Exchange Agent shall deliver to Parent from the Indemnity Escrow Funds a Note for cancellation with a principal amount equal to the amount of such Losses multiplied by the Conversion Premium and (ii) in the event that, following the Note Satisfaction, the portion of the Indemnity Escrow Funds being delivered pursuant to this Section are Note Satisfaction Shares, the Escrow and Exchange Agent shall deliver to Parent from the Indemnity Escrow Funds that number of Note Satisfaction Shares equal to (X) the total number of Note Satisfaction Shares that would be in the Indemnity Escrow Account (as defined in the Escrow Agreement) if the entire principal amount of the Note initially placed in the Indemnity Escrow Account converted into the Note Satisfaction Shares multiplied by (Y) the Escrow Percentage; provided, however, that at the election of the Stockholders Representative in its sole discretion, the Stockholders may satisfy any such Losses by paying cash to Parent within 30 days of resolution of the amount of such Losses, in accordance with their Pro Rata Share, in the amount of such Losses, in lieu of the Escrow Agent delivering to Parent such principal amount of the Note pursuant to clause (i) above or such number of Note Satisfaction Shares pursuant to clause (ii) above, as applicable, whereupon such principal amount of the Note or such number of Note Satisfaction Shares shall be released to the Stockholders after such cash payment to Parent has been made.  Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, in the event that any Losses result from a breach of the representations and warranties contained in Section 3.06(d) of this Agreement, Parent in its sole discretion shall have the right to recover the amount of such Losses directly from the Stockholders, in accordance with their Pro Rata Share, or from the Indemnity Escrow Funds.  If the Parent elects to recover such Losses from the Indemnity Escrow Funds, the Stockholders shall be obligated to deposit with the Escrow and Exchange Agent the same amount of cash, principal amount of the Note or number of shares of Parent Common Stock, as the case may be, to be held in the Escrow Account that was distributed to Parent in satisfaction of such Losses resulting from the breach of the representations and warranties contained in Section 3.06(d) of this Agreement.
 
 
60

 
 
(c)  In the event that the Stockholders are the indemnified party, upon the resolution of the amount of the Stockholders’ Losses in respect of any Pending Claim, if any, Parent shall wire to the Stockholder Representative in immediately available funds an amount equal to the amount of such Losses for distribution to the Stockholders in accordance with their Pro Rata Share; provided, however, that at the election of Parent in its sole discretion, Parent may satisfy any such Losses by issuing a number of shares of Parent Common Stock to the Stockholders Representative, within 30 days of the resolution of the amount of such Losses, as would be equal to the amount of such Losses divided by the Average VWAP of the Parent Common Stock, for distribution to the Stockholders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Share.
 
(d)  Promptly following the Escrow Termination Date, and promptly following the resolution of any Pending Claims with respect to any Reserve Amounts, the Stockholder Representative and Parent shall instruct the Escrow and Exchange Agent under the Escrow Agreement to deliver to the Exchange Agent for distribution to the Stockholders, in accordance with their Pro Rata Share, the portion of the Indemnity Escrow Funds equal to (i) the Indemnity Escrow Funds remaining in the Escrow Account at such time, minus (ii) the sum of all Reserve Amounts outstanding at such time.
 
Section 9.07.  Limitations on Indemnification.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement:
 
(a)  To the extent that the Stockholders and/or Parent shall have any obligation to indemnify and hold harmless any other person hereunder, such obligation shall not include lost profits or other consequential, special, punitive, incidental or indirect damages (and the injured party shall not recover for such amounts), other than to the extent any such damages are asserted by a third party against an indemnified party in a Third Party Claim.
 
(b)  Parent and the Stockholders Representative, acting on behalf of the Stockholders, shall cooperate with each other with respect to resolving any claim or liability that may lead to Losses hereunder including by making commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate or resolve any such claim or liability.
 
(c)  Parent and the Stockholders Representative, acting on behalf of the Stockholders, further acknowledge and agree that, other than (i) the representations and warranties of the Company and the Stockholders contained in Article III of this Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements and the covenants of the Company contained in this Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements, and (ii) the representations and warranties of Parent and Sub contained in Article IV of this Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements and the covenants of Parent and Sub contained in this Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements, there are no representations, warranties or covenants of the Company, the Stockholders Representative, the Stockholders or Parent and Sub, as the case may be, either expressed or implied, with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements.  Each of the parties hereto hereby acknowledges and agrees that in connection with the transactions set forth herein, Parent and the Company have received certain estimates, projections, forecasts and similar forward-looking statements relating to the future operating and financial performance of the other party and no representation or warranty is being made by or on behalf of either party with respect to such matters.
 
 
61

 
 
(d)  Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, no party shall have any right to indemnification under this Article IX with respect to any Losses to the extent (and only to the extent) such Losses (i) arise primarily out of any action or inaction of such party; (ii) arise solely out of changes after the Closing Date in applicable Law or interpretations or applications thereof; or (iii) are duplicative of Losses that have previously been recovered hereunder.
 
(e)  Upon payment in full of any claim arising under Section 9.05(c) (an “Inter-Party Claim”), pursuant to such Section 9.05(c) or the payment of any judgment with respect to a Third Party Claim pursuant to Section 9.05, the indemnifying party shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment to the rights of the indemnified party against any person with respect to the subject matter of such Inter-Party Claim or Third Party Claim, unless the indemnified party has a continuing commercial relationship with the counterparty to the Third Party Claim or Inter-Party Claim (other than any insurance company that has issued an insurance policy that is applicable to such Third Party Claim or Inter-Party Claim).  The indemnified party shall assign or otherwise reasonably cooperate with the indemnifying party to assign, at the cost and expense of the indemnified party, any and all rights 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.
 
Section 9.08.  Exclusive Remedy.  Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, the sole and exclusive remedy of Parent or the Stockholders after the Closing with respect to any and all claims relating to this Agreement and the Transaction Agreements, the Merger and the other Transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article IX; provided, however, this exclusive remedy does not preclude (i) a party from bringing an action for specific performance or other equitable remedy to require a party to perform its obligations under this Agreement or any of the Transaction Agreements or (ii) a party from pursuing remedies under applicable Law for fraud or intentional misrepresentation against the party committing the fraud or intentional misrepresentation. In furtherance of the foregoing, each of Parent and the Stockholders Representative, on behalf of the Stockholders hereby waives, from and after the Closing, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law, any and all rights, claims and causes of action (other than claims of, or causes of action arising from, fraud or intentional misrepresentation against the party who committed such fraud or intentional misrepresentation) it may have against the Stockholders or Parent, respectively, arising under or based upon any applicable Law or arising under or based upon common law or otherwise (except pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article IX or an action for specific performance or other equitable remedy to require a party to perform its obligations under this Agreement or any of the Transaction Agreements).
 
 
62

 
 
Section 9.09.  Stockholders Representative.  By virtue of the approval of the Merger and this Agreement by the Stockholders, each of the Stockholders shall be deemed to have agreed to appoint the Stockholders Representative as its agent and attorney-in-fact and as stockholder representative, for and on behalf of the Stockholders to hold the Note for the account of the Stockholders in accordance with the Merger Consideration Allocation Schedule, to give and receive notices and communications, to authorize payment to any Parent indemnified party from the Escrow Account in satisfaction of claims by any Parent indemnified party, to object to such payments, to agree to, negotiate, enter into settlements and compromises of, and demand arbitration and comply with orders of courts and awards of arbitrators with respect to such claims, to assert, negotiate, enter into settlements and compromises of, and demand arbitration and comply with orders of courts and awards of arbitrators with respect to, any other claim by any Parent indemnified party against any Stockholder or by any such Stockholder against any indemnified party or any dispute between any indemnified party and any such Stockholder, in each case relating to this Agreement or the Transactions, and to take all other actions that are either (i) necessary or appropriate in the judgment of the Stockholder Representative for the accomplishment of the foregoing or (ii) specifically mandated by the terms of this Agreement, including in connection with the determination of the Company Estimated Net Working Capital and the Company Closing Net Working Capital and the payment of any Company Shortfall in Sections 2.03, 2.04 and 2.05 of this Agreement.
