Buyer shall promptly notify Seller of the existence of any claim, demand, or other matter to which Seller's indemnification obligations would apply, and will give Seller a reasonable opportunity to defend the same at Seller's own expense and with counsel of Seller's own selection; provided that Buyer will at all times also have the right to participate fully in the defense at its own expense. If, within a reasonable time after this notice, Seller falls to defend, Buyer will have the right, but not the obligation, to undertake the defense of, and to compromise or settle (exercising reasonable business judgment), the claim or other matter on behalf and at the risk of Seller. If the claim is one that cannot by its nature be defended solely by Seller (including any federal or state tax proceeding), Buyer will make available all information and assistance that Seller may reasonably request.

10.3 Buyer's Indemnification Obligations. Buyer shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Seller, Seller's officers, employees, agents, heirs, successors, and assigns ("Seller Indemnified Parties") against and in respect of claims, demands, losses, costs, expenses, obligations, liabilities, damages, recoveries, and deficiencies, including interest, penalties, and reasonable attorney fees ("Claims"), that any of the Seller Indemnified Parties will incur or suffer, that arise from any breach of, or failure by Buyer to perform, any of Buyer's representations, warranties, covenants, or agreements in this Agreement or in any schedule, certificate, exhibit, or other instrument furnished or to be furnished by Buyer under this Agreement, and against and in respect of any Claims arising out of the Business or ownership of the Assets after the Closing Date.

10.4 Buyer's Right To Defend. Seller shall promptly notify Buyer of the existence of any claim, demand, or other matter to which Buyer's indemnification obligations would apply, and will give Buyer a reasonable opportunity to defend the same at Buyer's own expense and with counsel of Buyer's own selection; provided that Seller will at all times also have the right to participate fully in the defense at its own expense. If, within a reasonable time after this notice, Buyer fails to defend, Seller will have the right, but not the obligation, to undertake the defense of, and to compromise or settle (exercising reasonable business judgment), the claim or other matter on behalf and at the risk of Buyer. If the claim is one that cannot by its nature be defended solely by Buyer (including any federal or state tax proceeding), Seller will make available all information and assistance that Buyer may reasonably request.

11. MISCELLANEOUS

11.1 Publicity.

11.2 Finder's or Broker's Fees. Seller and Buyer each indemnify and hold harmless one another against any loss, liability, damage, cost, claim, or expense incurred by reason of any brokerage commission or finder's fee alleged to be payable because of any act, omission, or statement of the indemnifying party.

11.3 Expenses. Each party will pay all costs and expenses incurred or to be incurred by it in negotiating and preparing this agreement and in closing and carrying out the transactions contemplated in this Agreement.

11.4 Effect of Headings. The subject headings of the sections and subsections of this Agreement are included for convenience only and will not affect the construction or interpretation of any of its provisions.

11.5 Word Usage. Unless the context clearly requires otherwise:

11.5.1 Plural and singular numbers will each be considered to include the other;

11.5.2 The masculine, feminine, and neuter genders will each be considered to include the others;

11.5.3 "Shall," "will," "must," "agree," and "covenants" are each mandatory;

11.5.4 "May" is permissive;

11.5.5 "Or" is not exclusive; and

11.5.6 "Includes" and "including" are not limiting.

11.6 Entire Agreement; Modification; Waiver. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties pertaining to the subject matter contained in it and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements, representations, and understandings of the parties. No supplement, modification, or amendment of this agreement will be binding unless executed in writing by all the parties. No waiver of any of the provisions of this agreement will be considered, ill constitute, a waiver of any other provision, and no waiver will constitute a continuing waiver. No waiver will be binding unless executed in writing by the party making the waiver.

11.7 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in one or more counterparts, each of which will be considered an original, but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument.

11.8 Parties in Interest. Nothing in this Agreement, whether express or implied, is intended to confer any rights or remedies under or by reason of this agreement on any persons other than the parties to it and their respective successors and assigns; nothing in this Agreement is intended to relieve or discharge the obligation or liability of any third persons to any party to this Agreement; and no provision will give any third persons any right of subrogation or action against any party to this Agreement.

11.9 Assignment. This agreement will be binding on, and will inure to the benefit of, the parties to it and their respective heirs, legal representatives, successors, and assigns, provided that Buyer may not assign any of its rights under this agreement except to a wholly owned affiliate of Buyer.

11.10 Arbitration. Any controversy or claim arising from or relating to this agreement, or its making, performance, or interpretation, will be settled by arbitration in Los Angeles, California, under the commercial arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association then existing.

Arbitrators will be persons experienced in negotiating, making, and consummating acquisition agreements for motion picture libraries and motion picture production companies.

11.11 Specific Performance and Waiver of Rescission Rights. Each party's obligation under this Agreement is unique. If my party should default in its obligations under this agreement, the parties each acknowledge that it would be extremely impracticable to measure the resulting damages; accordingly, the nondefaulting party or parties, in addition to any other available rights or remedies, may sue in equity for specific performance, and the parties each expressly waive the defense that a remedy in damages will be adequate. Despite any breach or default by any of the parties of any of their respective representations, warranties, covenants, or agreements under this Agreement, if the purchase and sale contemplated by it will be consummated at the Closing, each of the parties waives any rights that they may have to rescind this Agreement or the transaction consummated by it provided that this waiver will not affect any other rights or remedies available to the parties under this Agreement or under the law.

11.12 Recovery of Litigation Costs. If any legal action, arbitration, or other proceeding is brought for the enforcement of this agreement, or because of an alleged dispute, breach, default, or misrepresentation in connection with any of the provisions of this agreement, the successful or prevailing party or parties will be entitled to recover reasonable attorney fees and other costs incurred in that action or proceeding, in addition to any other relief to which they may be entitled.

11.13 Conditions Permitting Termination. Any party may on the Closing Date terminate this Agreement, without liability to any other if any bona fide action or proceeding is pending against any party on the Closing Date that could result in an unfavorable judgment, decree, or order that would prevent or make unlawful the performance of this Agreement. If either Buyer or Seller materially defaults in the due and timely performance of any of its or his respective representations, warranties, covenants, or agreements under this agreement, the nondefaulting party or parties may on the Closing Date give notice of termination of this Agreement. The notice shall specify with particularity the default or defaults on which the notice is based. The termination will be effective one (1) business day after the Closing Date, unless the specified default or defaults have been cured on or before this effective date for termination.
