3. Purchase Price; Allocation.

3.1. Purchase Price.

(a) Preliminary Purchase Price. Buyer agrees to pay to Seller $300,000 (the “Preliminary Purchase Price”), of which the following amount shall be paid at the Closing: (i) $130,000, plus (v) the Estimated Net Working Capital Adjustment, if it is a positive number, minus (vi) the absolute value of the Estimated Net Working Capital Adjustment, if it is a negative number (such amount, the “Closing Payment”).

(b) Installment Payments. Interest shall accrue on the $170,000.00 balance of the Preliminary Purchase Price at the rate of 1.5% per year. Buyer agrees to pay the remainder of the Preliminary Purchase Price to Seller in the following installment payments (the “Installment Payments”) on the dates indicated below:

(i) $70,000 on August 1, 2020, plus accrued interest; and

(ii) $100,000 on November 1, 2020, plus accrued interest.

(c) Payment Methods. The Closing Payment shall be payable to Seller at Closing by delivery of cash payable by wire transfer or delivery of other immediately available funds. The Installment Payments shall be payable to Seller on the date indicated above by delivery of cash payable by wire transfer or delivery of other immediately available funds.

3.2. Adjustment to the Preliminary Purchase Price.

(a) Closing Adjustments.

(i) Not later than two (2) business days prior to the Closing, Seller shall prepare and deliver to Buyer a statement (the “Estimated Closing Statement”) calculating Seller’s good faith estimate of the anticipated Net Working Capital for Seller as of the Closing (the “Estimated Net Working Capital”) using the formula for that calculation separately agreed upon by the parties and the amount, if any, by which the Estimated Net Working Capital is greater than or less than the Target Net Working Capital (the “Estimated Net Working Capital Adjustment”).

(ii) The Estimated Closing Statement shall be prepared in accordance with the accrual accounting practices and procedures as consistently applied by Seller in the preparation of the Financial Statements provided by Seller pursuant to this Agreement, and shall be delivered together with supporting documentation used by Seller in calculating and preparing the Estimated Closing Statement and such other documentation as Buyer shall reasonably request. The Preliminary Purchase Price shall be adjusted consistent with Section 3.1 based on the Estimated Net Working Capital Adjustment and shall be subject to further adjustment after the Closing as set forth in Section 3.2 below.

(b) Draft Closing Statement.

(i) Within thirty (30) days after the Closing Date, Buyer will prepare and deliver to Seller a statement evidencing its final determination of the Net Working Capital (the “Draft Closing Statement”) for Seller as of the close of business on the Closing Date (determined on a pro forma basis as though the parties had not consummated the transactions contemplated by this Agreement). The Draft Closing Statement will be prepared in accordance with the accrual accounting practices and procedures as consistently applied by Seller in the preparation of the Financial Statements provided by Seller pursuant to this Agreement.

(ii) If Seller has any objections to the Draft Closing Statement, they shall deliver a detailed statement describing such objections to Buyer within fifteen (15) days after receiving the Draft Closing Statement. Buyer and Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve any such objections themselves. If the parties do not reach a final resolution within thirty (30) days after Buyer has received the statement of objections, however, Buyer and Seller shall submit the matter to Cohen & Company (the “Accounting Referee”) to resolve any remaining objections. Only the amounts in dispute (the aggregate of all such amounts, the “Disputed Amounts”) will be referred to the Accounting Referee for final determination. The determination of the Accounting Referee shall be issued in writing within forty-five (45) days of such referral. The final determination of the Disputed Amounts shall be based solely on presentations by Buyer and Seller and shall not involve the Accounting Referee’s independent review, and the Accounting Referee shall not be authorized to assign a value outside of the range established by Buyer’s position as set forth in the Draft Closing Statement and by Seller’s position as set forth in their written objection(s). The determination by the Accounting Referee pursuant to the foregoing shall be final, binding upon and non-appealable by the parties. The Buyer, on the one hand, and Seller, on the other hand, shall bear the fees and expenses of the Accounting Referee in the proportion that the aggregate amount of such Disputed Amounts so submitted to the Accounting Referee that are unsuccessfully disputed by each such party, as finally determined by the Accounting Referee, bears to the total amount of such remaining Disputed Amounts.

(iii) Buyer shall revise the Draft Closing Statement as appropriate to reflect the resolution of all objections thereto pursuant to Section 3.2(b)(ii), if any. The Net Working Capital calculation as set forth in the Final Closing Statement shall be the “Final Net Working Capital.”

(iv) Buyer will make the work papers and back-up materials used in preparing the Draft Closing Statement, including, without limitation, all books and records of Seller, available to Seller at reasonable times and upon reasonable notice at any time during the review by Seller of the Draft Closing Statement, and the resolution by the parties of any objections thereto.

(i) Upon completion of the Final Closing Statement pursuant to Section 3.2(b) above, the Preliminary Purchase Price shall be further adjusted based on the Final Closing Statement as set forth in this Section 3.2(c). If the Final Net Working Capital is greater than the Estimated Net Working Capital, then the Preliminary Purchase Price shall be increased if and to the extent that the Final Net Working Capital exceeds the Estimated Net Working Capital and Buyer shall be obligated to pay such difference to Seller as provided in Section 3.2(c)(ii) below. If the Final Net Working Capital is less than the Estimated Net Working Capital, then the Preliminary Purchase Price shall be reduced if and to the extent that the Final Net Working Capital is less than the Estimated Net Working Capital, and Seller shall be obligated to pay such difference to Buyer as provided in Section 3.2(c)(ii) below (the “Net Adjustment Amount”).

(ii) To the extent the Net Adjustment Amount produces a net payment due to Seller pursuant to Section 3.2(c)(i), the Preliminary Purchase Price shall be increased by an amount equal to the Net Adjustment Amount, and Buyer shall pay such amount to Seller by wire transfer or other delivery of immediately available funds within five (5) business days after the determination of the Net Adjustment Amount.

(iii) To the extent the Net Adjustment Amount produces a net payment due to Buyer pursuant to Section 3.2(c)(i), the Preliminary Purchase Price shall be decreased by an amount equal to the Net Adjustment Amount, and Buyer shall reduce the amount of the Installment Payment due to Seller on August 1, 2020 by the Net Adjustment Amount.

(iv) The Preliminary Purchase Price, as so adjusted pursuant to this Section 3.2(c) is referred to herein as the “Purchase Price.”

(d) Adjustments for Tax Purposes. Any payments made pursuant to Section 3.2 shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price by the parties for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Law.

3.3. Earn-Out.

(a) Earn-Out Payments. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, as additional consideration for the Purchased Assets, the Buyer agrees to pay to Seller, as part of the Purchase Price, additional contingent consideration payable in two annual installments, as follows (each such potential payment, including Additional Earn-Out payments, an “Earn-Out”):

(i) Base Earn-Out for Year 1. In the event Qualified Revenue for the twelve (12) month period that commences on the first day following the Closing Date (such time period, the “Year 1 Earn-Out Period”): (i) equals or exceeds $347,760, the Earn-Out for the Year 1 Earn-Out Period shall be $150,000, (ii) is less than $211,260, no Earn-Out will be earned or be payable for the Year 1 Earn-Out Period, or (iii) falls between $211,261 and $347,759, then for each $3,250 increment over $211,260, the Earn-Out for the Year 1 Earn-Out Period shall be $3,488.37, up to the maximum of $150,000.

(ii) Additional Earn-Out for Year 1. In the event Qualified Revenue for the Year 1 Earn-Out Period exceeds $347,760, and in the event Additional Qualified Revenue for the Year 1 Earn-Out Period: (i) equals or exceeds $425,760, the an additional Earn-Out payment (the “Additional Earn-Out”) for the Year 1 Earn-Out Period shall be $35,000, (ii) falls between $347,760 and $425,760, then for each $3,250 increment over $347,760, the Additional Earn-Out for the Year 1 Earn-Out Period shall be $1,458.33, up to the maximum of $35,000.

(iii) Base Earn-Out for Year 2. In the event Qualified Revenue for the twelve (12) month period that commences on the first anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Year 2 Earn-Out Period”): (i) equals or exceeds $359,932, the Earn-Out for the Year 2 Earn-Out Period shall be $150,000, (ii) is less than $220,182, no Earn-Out will be earned or be payable for the Year 2 Earn-Out Period, or (iii) falls between $220,183 and $359,931, then for each $3,250 increment over $220,182, the Earn-Out for the Year 2 Earn-Out Period shall be $3,488.37, up to the maximum of $150,000.

(iv) Additional Earn-Out for Year 2. In the event Qualified Revenue for the Year 2 Earn-Out Period exceeds $359,932, and in the event Additional Qualified Revenue for the Year 2 Earn-Out Period: (i) equals or exceeds $437,932, the Additional Earn-Out for the Year 2 Earn-Out Period shall be $35,000, or (ii) falls between $359,932 and $437,932, then for each $3,250 increment over $359,932, the Additional Earn-Out for the Year 2 Earn-Out Period shall be $1,458.33, up to the maximum of $35,000.

(b) Procedures Applicable to Determination of the Earn-out Payments.

(i) On or before May 31 of each calendar year following the conclusion of each Calculation Period (each such date, an “Earn-Out Calculation Delivery Date”), Buyer shall prepare and deliver to Seller a written statement (in each case, an “Earn-Out Calculation Statement”) setting forth its good faith determination of Qualified Revenue for the applicable Calculation Period. The Earn-Out Calculation Statement will be prepared in accordance with the accrual accounting practices and procedures as consistently applied by Seller in the preparation of the Financial Statements provided by Seller pursuant to this Agreement.

(ii) Seller shall have fifteen (15) business days after receipt of the Earn-Out Calculation Statement for each Calculation Period (in each case, the “Gross Profit Review Period”) to review the Earn-Out Calculation Statement set forth therein. During the Gross Profit Review Period, Seller and their accountants shall have the right to inspect Buyer’s books and records relating to the calculation of Qualified Revenue and, if applicable, Additional Qualified Revenue during normal business hours at Buyer’s offices, upon reasonable prior notice and solely for purposes reasonably related to the determinations of Qualified Revenue and, if applicable, Additional Qualified Revenue. Prior to the expiration of the Gross Profit Review Period, Seller may object to the determination of Qualified Revenue and, if applicable, Additional Qualified Revenue set forth in the Earn-Out Calculation Statement for the applicable Calculation Period by delivering a written notice of objection (an “Earn-out Calculation Objection Notice”) to Buyer. Any Earn-Out Calculation Objection Notice shall specify the items in the applicable Earn-Out Calculation disputed by Seller and shall describe in reasonable detail the basis for such objection, as well as the amount in dispute. If Seller fails to deliver an Earn-Out Calculation Objection Notice to Buyer prior to the expiration of the Gross Profit Review Period, then the determination of Qualified Revenue and, if applicable, Additional Qualified Revenue set forth in the Earn-Out Calculation Statement shall be final and binding on the parties hereto. If Seller timely delivers an Earn-Out Calculation Objection Notice, Buyer and Seller shall negotiate in good faith to resolve the disputed items and agree upon the resulting amount of Qualified Revenue and, if applicable, Additional Qualified Revenue for the applicable Calculation Period. If Buyer and Seller are unable to reach agreement within fifteen (15) days after such an Earn-Out Calculation Objection Notice has been given, all unresolved disputed items shall be promptly referred to the Accounting Referee. The Accounting Referee shall be directed to render a written report on the unresolved disputed items with respect to the applicable determination of Qualified Revenue and, if applicable, Additional Qualified Revenue as promptly as practicable, but in no event greater than thirty (30) days after such submission to the Accounting Referee, and to resolve only those unresolved disputed items set forth in the Earn-Out Calculation Objection Notice. If unresolved disputed items are submitted to the Accounting Referee, Buyer and Seller shall each furnish to the Accounting Referee such work papers, schedules and other documents and information relating to the unresolved disputed items as the Accounting Referee may reasonably request. The Accounting Referee shall resolve the disputed items based solely on the applicable definitions and other terms in this Agreement and the presentations by Buyer and Seller, and not by independent review. The resolution of the dispute and the calculation of Qualified Revenue and, if applicable, Additional Qualified Revenue that is the subject of the applicable Earn-Out Calculation Objection Notice by the Accounting Referee shall be final and binding on the parties hereto. The fees and expenses of the Accounting Referee shall be borne by Buyer and Seller in proportion to the amounts by which their respective calculations of Qualified Revenue and, if applicable, Additional Qualified Revenue differ from Qualified Revenue (in each case, determined on an aggregate basis) as finally determined by the Accounting Referee.

(c) Independence of Earn-Out Payments. Buyer’s obligation to pay each of the Earn-Out payments (if any) to Seller in accordance with Section 3.3(a) is an independent obligation of Buyer and is not otherwise conditioned or contingent upon the satisfaction of any conditions precedent to any preceding or subsequent Earn-Out payment and the obligation to pay an Earn-Out payment to Seller shall not obligate Buyer to pay any preceding or subsequent Earn-Out payment. For the avoidance of doubt and by way of example, if the conditions precedent to the payment of the Earn-Out payment for the Year 1 Earn-Out Period are not satisfied, but the conditions precedent to the payment of the Earn-Out for the Year 1 Earn-Out Period are satisfied, then Buyer would be obligated to pay such Earn-Out payment for Year 2 Earn-Out Period for which the corresponding conditions precedent have been satisfied, and not the Earn-Out payment for Year 1 Earn-Out Period.

(d) Earn-Out Calculation. Following Closing, Seller and Shareholder will retain little to no control over the operation and marketing of the Purchased Assets. As such, if a customer listed on Exhibit A fails to be a customer of Buyer during the Year 1 Earn-Out Period and/or Year 2 Earn-Out Period because Buyer has either (a) stopped servicing document management software based on Seller’s Intellectual Property or (b) sought to transition the customer from document management software based on Seller’s Intellectual Property to Buyer’s other products or services, then Qualified Revenue earned from such customer for the Earn-Out period in which the customer fails to be a customer of Buyer shall be the Qualified Revenue earned by Seller or Buyer from that customer during the most recently completed calendar year in which the customer did not fail to be customer of Buyer. In addition, if Buyer has transitioned the customer to Buyer’s other products and services, then Qualified Revenue shall also include any revenue Buyer receives from that customer in excess of the Qualified Revenue described in the foregoing sentence, but only with respect to recurring revenue (and excluding revenues from professional services and sales of third-party software). For example, if a customer first ceases to buy products or services from Buyer in the Year 2 Earn-Out Period because Buyer no longer sells or provides technical support for Seller’s “Image Executive” software, then the Qualified Revenue earned from that customer during the Year 2 Earn-Out Period shall be the Qualified Revenue earned from that customer during the Year 1 Earn-Out Period. As another example, if a customer ceases to buy Seller’s products or services from Buyer during the Year 1 Earn-Out Period because Buyer has transitioned the customer to Buyer’s products or services, then the Qualified Revenue earned from that customer during each of the Year 1 Earn-Out Period and Year 2 Earn-Out Periods shall be the Qualified Revenue earned by Seller from that customer during the calendar year ending December 31, 2019, plus any recurring revenue amounts (excluding professional services and third-party sales) actually received by Buyer from such customer in excess of the amount of Qualified Revenue earned by Seller from that customer during the calendar year ending December 31, 2019.

(e) Timing and Payment of Earn-Out Payments. Subject to Section 3.3(f), any Earn-Out payment that Buyer is required to pay pursuant to Section 3.3(a) hereof shall be paid in full no later than five (5) business days following the date upon which the determination of Qualified Revenue and, if applicable, Additional Qualified Revenue for the applicable Calculation Period becomes final and binding upon the parties as provided in Section 3.3(b)(ii) (including any final resolution of any dispute raised by Seller in an Earn-Out Calculation Objection Notice).

(f) Post-Closing Operation of Business. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, subsequent to the Closing, Buyer shall:

(i) Maintain accounting records showing the Qualified Revenue and, if applicable, Additional Qualified Revenue by customer through the end of the Year 2 Earn-Out Period; and

(ii) Operate the Business and Purchased Assets in a manner not intentionally designed to reduce or eliminate the amount of Qualified Revenue, but with due regard for practical business considerations.

(g) Full Satisfaction of Earn-Out. Each of the following shall constitute a “Full Satisfaction Event” for purposes of this Section 3.3: (a) breach by Buyer of the covenants described in Section 3.3(e) above, after notice of such breach is provided by Seller and such breach is not cured by Buyer within thirty (30) days after receiving such notice; (b) failure by Buyer to pay any undisputed amount due under this Agreement, after notice of such breach is provided by Seller and such breach is not cured by Buyer within thirty (30) days after receiving such notice. On the occurrence of a Full Satisfaction Event, the maximum Earn-Out amount potentially payable to Seller under this Agreement shall be due in accordance with the timelines set forth in Section 3.3(a), above.

(h) Acceleration. Each of the following shall constitute an “Acceleration Event” for the purposes of this Section 3.3: (a) (a) any bankruptcy, reorganization, debt arrangement or other proceeding under any bankruptcy or insolvency law, or any dissolution or liquidation proceeding, is instituted by or against Buyer or any of its Affiliates, and if instituted against Buyer or any of its Affiliates, not dismissed within 30 days; (b) dissolution of Buyer or liquidation of substantially all Buyer’s assets; or (c) transfer of the Purchased Assets to any third party buyer (other than a Buyer Affiliate). On the occurrence of an Acceleration Event, the maximum Earn-Out amount potentially payable to Seller under this Agreement shall become immediately due, and shall be paid by Buyer to Seller within thirty (30) days by wire transfer.

(i) Right of Set-Off. Buyer shall have the option and right to withhold and set off against any amount otherwise due to be paid to Seller pursuant to this Section 3.3 the amount of any Losses to which any Buyer Indemnitees may be entitled under Section 8 of this Agreement.

(j) No Security. Buyer and Seller understand and agree that (i) the contingent rights to receive any Earn-out payments hereunder are not transferable, except by operation of Laws relating to descent and distribution, divorce and community property, and do not constitute an equity or ownership interest in Buyer or the Business, (ii) Seller shall not have any rights as a securityholder of Buyer or the Business as a result of Seller’s contingent right to receive any Earn-Out payments hereunder, and (iii) no interest is payable with respect to any Earn-Out payments.

(k) Earn-Out Payments for Tax Purposes. Any payments made pursuant to Section 3.3 shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price by the parties for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Law.

3.4. Allocation.

The Purchase Price (as finally determined in accordance with Section 3.2 shall be allocated among the Purchased Assets for all purposes (including Tax and financial accounting) as set forth on Schedule 3.4. The parties will use commercially reasonable good faith efforts to complete Schedule 3.4 promptly after the Closing. The parties acknowledge and agree that all Earn-Out payments, if any, shall be allocated to goodwill of Seller. The sale and purchase of the Purchased Assets will for all purposes, including income Tax purposes, be reflected in a manner consistent with such allocation and each party will file any forms necessary to reflect this allocation.

3.5. Withholding Tax.

Buyer shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the Purchase Price all taxes that Buyer may be required to deduct and withhold under any applicable tax law. All such withheld amounts shall be treated as delivered to Seller hereunder.

Seller is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Michigan and has full corporate power and authority to own, operate or lease the properties and assets now owned, operated or leased by it and to carry on the Business as currently conducted. Schedule 5.1 sets forth each jurisdiction in which Seller is qualified to do business and Seller is duly licensed or qualified to do business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the ownership of the Purchased Assets or the operation of the Business as currently conducted makes such licensing or qualification necessary. This Agreement constitutes valid and legally binding obligations of Seller, enforceable in accordance with its terms.

5.2. Authority of Seller.

Seller has full corporate power and authority to enter into this Agreement and the other transaction documents contemplated herein, to which Seller is a party, to carry out its obligations hereunder and thereunder and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. The execution and delivery by Seller of this Agreement and any other transaction document to which Seller is a party, the performance by Seller of its obligations hereunder and thereunder and the consummation by Seller of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby have been duly authorized by all requisite corporate action on the part of Seller. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by Seller, and (assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by Buyer) this Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of Seller enforceable against Seller in accordance with its terms. When each other transaction document to which Seller is or will be a party has been duly executed and delivered by Seller (assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by each other party thereto), such transaction document will constitute a legal and binding obligation of Seller enforceable against it in accordance with its terms.

5.3. Consents and Approvals; No Violation.

Except as set forth on Schedule 5.3, no consent, approval, Permit, Governmental Order, declaration or filing with, or notice to, any Governmental Authority is required by or with respect to Seller in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement or any of the other transaction documents contemplated hereunder and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. The consummation of the transactions contemplated in this Agreement by Seller will not violate, conflict with, or breach (a) any Contract, agreement, lease, license or other obligation to which Seller or any Purchased Asset is bound or subject, or (b) any Law, judgment, order, rule or decree of any court or Governmental Authority to which Seller or any Purchased Assets are subject. The consummation of the transactions contemplated in this Agreement by Seller will not result in the creation or imposition of any Encumbrance on the Purchased Assets.

5.4. Financial Statements.

The Financial Statements have been prepared, generally in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis throughout the periods involved, subject, in the case of the Interim Financial Statements, to normal and recurring year-end adjustments (the effect of which will not be materially adverse) and the absence of notes (that, if presented, would not differ materially from those presented in the December 31, 2019 Financial Statements). The Financial Statements are based on the books and records of the Business, and fairly present the financial condition of the Business as of the respective dates they were prepared and the results of the operations of the Business for the periods indicated. The balance sheet of the Business as of December 31, 2019 is referred to herein as the “Balance Sheet” and the date thereof as the “Balance Sheet Date.” Seller maintains a standard system of accrual accounting for the Business established and administered on a consistent basis.

5.5. Undisclosed Liabilities.

Seller has no Liabilities, except for (i) those which are adequately reflected or reserved against in the Balance Sheet as of the Balance Sheet Date, and (ii) those which have arisen after the Balance Sheet Date in the ordinary course of business (none of which results from, arises out of, relates to, is in the nature of, or was caused by any breach of contract, breach of warranty, tort, infringement, or violation of law).

Seller and Shareholder acknowledge that an important part of the benefit that Buyer will receive in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby is the ability to conduct the Business free from competition from Seller and Shareholder from and after the Closing. In order that Buyer may enjoy such benefits, Seller and Shareholder(s), as applicable, agree as follows.

(a) Non-Competition. Seller and Shareholder shall not, without Buyer’s prior written consent, except with respect to passive ownership of not more than two percent (2%) of the outstanding stock of any class of a corporation whose securities are publicly traded, directly or indirectly, engage or participate or have any ownership or other financial interest in, or in any way assist (as an employee, agent, consultant, investor, partner, member, shareholder, or otherwise) any person or entity to engage in any business engaged in in the same or similar line of business as the Business (“Competing Business”) for a period of four (4) years from the Closing Date (the “Restriction Period”) anywhere in the United States.

Seller and Shareholder shall not, without Buyer’s prior written consent, divert, solicit or attempt to divert, or assist or encourage any person or entity in diverting, soliciting or attempting to divert, to or for any Competing Business, any customer or supplier of Buyer.

Nothing in this Section 11.3 shall impair any broader or more extensive covenant under any employment, brokerage, sales representative, consulting or confidentiality, non-competition, or other similar agreement between Seller, on the one hand, and Buyer or any affiliate of Buyer, on the other hand. For purposes of this Section 11.3, all references to Buyer shall be deemed to include any and all Affiliates and subsidiaries of Buyer. Seller agrees and acknowledges that the duration and scope of the covenant not to compete, the non-solicitation/no-hire, and other provisions described in this Section 11.3 are fair, reasonable and necessary in order to protect the legitimate interests of Buyer, and that adequate consideration has been received by Seller for such obligations. If, however, for any reason any court determines that the restrictions in this Section 11.3 are not reasonable or that such consideration is inadequate, such restrictions shall be interpreted, modified or rewritten to include as much of the duration, scope and geographic area identified in this Section 11.3 as will render such restrictions valid and enforceable.

11.4. Non-Disparagement.

At any time from and after the Closing Date and for all periods thereafter, none of Buyer, Shareholder, or Seller, or their respective owners and Affiliates shall make any statement, whether oral, in print, through electronic communication or otherwise, relating or referring to the other party or its officers, managers, members, or any of its affiliates, or any products or services offered by such party or its officers, managers, members, or affiliates, that could be reasonably expected to disparage or impair the goodwill, reputation, or business of such party or any of its affiliates, or any of their respective services, products, officers, members, managers, employees, or facilities; provided, however, that this Section 11.4 shall not apply to any statements made under oath or compelled by law or order in a proceeding, hearing, or action in a court of competent jurisdiction.

11.5. Transfer Taxes.

All transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration, value added and other such Taxes and fees (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with this Agreement and the other transaction documents (including any real property transfer Tax and any other similar Tax) shall be borne and paid by Seller when due. Seller shall, at its own expense, timely file any Tax Return or other document with respect to such taxes or fees (and Buyer shall cooperate with respect thereto as necessary).

No change, modification, or addition to this Agreement is valid unless in writing and signed by each of the parties.

12.3. Binding Agreement; Assignment.

12.5. Specific Performance.

Seller acknowledges that any breach of the provisions contained in Section 11.2 or Section 11.3 will result in serious and irreparable injury to Buyer.

Seller further agrees that the provisions of Section 11.2 or Section 11.3 are to be construed as separate and independent undertakings and any claim Seller may have, whether under this Agreement or otherwise, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement of Section 11.2 or Section 11.3.
