7.2 The Transaction Documents, when executed and delivered by Marathon or SBA, as applicable, shall constitute the valid and legally binding obligation of Marathon and SBA, respectively, legally enforceable against each of Marathon and SBA in accordance with their respective terms, except as may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights in general and subject to general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

7.3 The authorized capital stock of Marathon consists of 200,000,000 shares of Common Stock and 50,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, each having a par value of USD $0.0001, of which 5,579,337 shares are issued and outstanding. Marathon’s fully-diluted capital structure before and after Closing is set forth in the capitalization table attached hereto as Schedule 7.3. All capital stock, preemptive rights, rights of first refusal, rights of co-sale, convertible, exercisable or exchangeable securities, outstanding warrants, options or other rights to subscribe for, purchase or acquire from Marathon or SBA or any of its subsidiaries or Affiliates any capital stock of the Marathon, SBA and/or any of its subsidiaries are set forth in detail on Schedule 7.3.

Marathon has timely filed all forms and reports required to be filed with the Securities Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) including, without limitation, all exhibits required to be filed therewith, and has made available to the Seller true, complete and correct copies of all of the same so filed (including any forms, reports and documents incorporated by reference therein or filed after the date hereof, the “Marathon SEC Reports”). For purposes hereof, such Marathon SEC Reports shall be deemed delivered to Seller via the SEC’s EDGAR database. The Marathon SEC Reports: (i) at the time filed complied (or will comply when filed, as the case may be) in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Securities Act and/or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, in each case applicable to such Marathon SEC Reports at the time they were filed; and (ii) did not at the time they were filed (or, if later filed, amended or superseded, then on the date of such later filing) contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements contained therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

The Marathon Financial Statements fairly present the financial condition of Marathon as of the dates thereof and results of operations, cash flows and stockholders’ equity for the periods referred to therein (subject, in the case of unaudited Marathon Financial Statements, to normal recurring year-end adjustments which were not and will not be material in amount). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (i) no independent public accountant of Marathon has resigned or been dismissed as independent public accountant of Marathon as a result of or in connection with any disagreement with Marathon on a matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, (ii) no executive officer of Marathon has failed in any respect to make, without qualification, the certifications required of him or her under Section 302 or 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act with respect to any form, report or schedule filed by Marathon with the SEC since the enactment of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and (iii) no enforcement action has been initiated or, to the knowledge of Marathon, threatened against Marathon by the SEC relating to disclosures contained in any Marathon SEC Report. There has been no change in Marathon’s accounting policies except as described in the notes to the Marathon Financial Statements.

7.9 Marathon is not in default and neither the execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents nor compliance by Marathon with the terms and provisions hereof and thereof, will conflict with, or result in a breach or violation of, any of the terms, conditions and provisions of: (i) the Marathon Corporate Governance Documents, or (ii) any note, indenture, mortgage, lease, agreement, contract, purchase order or other instrument, document or agreement to which Marathon is a party or by which it or any of its property is bound, or (iii) any law, statute, ordinance, regulation, order, writ, injunction, decree, or judgment of any court or any governmental department, commission, board, bureau, agency or instrumentality in any country in which Marathon conducts business. Such execution, delivery and compliance with the Transaction Documents will not (a) give to others any rights, including rights of termination, cancellation or acceleration, in or with respect to any agreement, contract or commitment referred to in this paragraph, or to any of the properties of Marathon, or (b) except for compliance with any applicable requirements under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act and any requirements of the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board (“OTCBB”), no consent, approval, order or authorization of, or registration, declaration or filing with any Governmental Body or any other Person is required by or with respect to Marathon in connection with the execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, which consent or approval has not heretofore been obtained or will be obtained by Closing. To the knowledge of Marathon, no third party is in default under any agreement, contract or other instrument or document to which Marathon is a party. To the knowledge of Marathon, Marathon is not a party to or bound by any order, judgment, decree or award of any Governmental Body.

7.10 No action, proceeding or governmental inquiry or investigation is pending or, to the knowledge of Marathon, threatened against Marathon or any of its officers, directors or employees (in their capacity as such or as shareholders, if applicable), or against any of Marathon’s properties, including, without limitation, assets, licenses and rights transferred to Marathon under any written agreement or other binding undertaking, or with regard to Marathon’s business, before any court, arbitration board or tribunal or administrative or other governmental agency, nor does Marathon believe that there is any basis for the foregoing.

8. Survival; Indemnification; Limitation of Liability; No Consequential Damages

8.1 The representations and warranties of each Party hereunder shall survive the Closing and remain in effect for a period of one (1) year thereafter.

8.2 Indemnification. The Seller, on the one side and Marathon and SBA on the other side (as applicable, the “Indemnifying Party”) agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Parties of the other side and their respective Affiliates (as applicable, the “Indemnified Parties”), against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever (including, but not limited to, any and all expenses whatsoever reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation commenced or threatened or any claim whatsoever) arising out of or based upon (a) any breach of any of such Party’s representations or warranties herein, misrepresentation or warranty or breach or failure by the Indemnifying Party to comply with any covenants or agreement made by it herein, in the other Transaction Documents or in any other document furnished by it to any of the foregoing in connection with this transaction and (b) any action for securities law violations instituted by an Indemnifying Party which is finally resolved by judgment against such Indemnifying Party.

8.3 Mechanics of Indemnification. Whenever any claim arises for indemnification under this Agreement or an event which may result in a claim for such indemnification has occurred, the Indemnified Party(ies) will promptly notify the Indemnifying Party of the claim and, when known, the facts constituting the basis for such claim. The Indemnifying Party shall have the obligation to dispute and defend all such Third Party claims and thereafter so defend and pay any adverse final judgment or award or settlement amount in regard thereto. Such defense shall be controlled by the Indemnifying Party, and the cost of such defense shall be borne by the Indemnifying Party, provided that the Indemnified Parties shall have the right to participate in such defense at their own expense, unless the Indemnified Parties require their own attorney due to a conflict of interest, in which case, the expense of a single law firm acceptable to such Indemnified Party will be borne by the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnified Parties shall cooperate in all reasonable respects in the investigation, trial and defense of any such claim at the cost of the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party fails to take action within thirty (30) days of notice, then the Indemnified Parties shall have the right to pay, compromise or defend any third party claim, such costs to be borne by the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnified Parties shall also have the right and upon delivery of ten (10) days advance written notice to such effect to the Indemnifying Party, exercisable in good faith, to take such action as may be reasonably necessary to avoid a default prior to the assumption of the defense of the Third Party claim by the Indemnifying Party, and any reasonable expenses incurred by the Indemnified Parties so acting shall be paid by the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnifying Party will not settle or compromise any Third Party claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Parties, not to be unreasonably withheld.

8.4 Marathon Indemnification. Marathon, SBA and Sarif shall indemnify and hold the Seller harmless with respect to any loss, expense, cost, damage and settlement (collectively, “Indemnified Expenses”) caused to Seller as a result of Marathon’s, SBA’s or Sarif’s or any of their Affiliates’ actions or omissions with respect to the Patents following the Closing Date, provided Seller is not determined to responsible for such actions as a result of their fraud or intentional misconduct. In particular, in the event that the enforcement or other activities with the Patents results in litigation or other dispute resolution processes with one or more Third Parties, with the Seller being required to be involved (e.g., being added as a party to the process, even if such joinder is improper, or being subject to Third Party discovery requests or otherwise having any exposure for any claims arising through activities of Sarif), Marathon, SBA and Sarif shall, at Seller’s request, indemnify Seller all of Seller’s Indemnified Expenses arising from that involvement.

8.5 Limitation of Liability. SELLER’S TOTAL LIABILITY UNDER THE TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS WILL NOT EXCEED THE CASH CLOSING CONSIDERATION ACTUALLY RECEIVED BY SELLER HEREUNDER. THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THIS LIMITATION ON POTENTIAL LIABILITIES WAS AN ESSENTIAL ELEMENT IN SETTING CONSIDERATION UNDER THE TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS.

8.6 Limitation on Consequential Damages. NEITHER PARTY WILL HAVE ANY OBLIGATION OR LIABILITY (WHETHER IN CONTRACT, WARRANTY, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE) OR OTHERWISE, AND NOTWITHSTANDING ANY FAULT, NEGLIGENCE (WHETHER ACTIVE, PASSIVE OR IMPUTED), REPRESENTATION, STRICT LIABILITY OR PRODUCT LIABILITY), FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR LOSS OF REVENUE, PROFIT, SAVINGS OR BUSINESS ARISING FROM OR OTHERWISE RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, EVEN IF A PARTY OR ITS EMPLOYEES HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

9. Miscellaneous

9.1 Each of the Parties hereto shall perform such further acts and execute such further documents as may reasonably be necessary to carry out and give full effect to the provisions of the Transaction Documents and the intentions of the Parties as reflected thereby.

9.2 Governing Law; Arbitration; Prevailing Party. This Agreement and all claims or causes of action that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement or the Collateral Agreements will be construed in accordance with and governed by the internal laws of the State of Texas applicable to agreements made and to be performed entirely within such State without regard to conflicts of laws principles thereof. Any dispute arising under or in connection with any matter of any nature (whether sounding in contract or tort) relating to or arising out of this Agreement, shall be resolved exclusively by arbitration. The arbitration shall be in conformity with and subject to the applicable rules and procedures of the American Arbitration Association. The arbitration shall be conducted before a panel of three (3) arbitrators, with one arbitrator to be selected by each of Seller and Buyer and the third arbitrator to be selected by the arbitrators selected by the Parties. The Parties agree to be (a) subject to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the arbitration in the Eastern District of Texas (b) bound by the decision of the arbitrator as the final decision with respect to the dispute, and (c) subject to the jurisdiction of both of the federal courts of the United States of America or the courts sitting in the Eastern District in the State of Texas for the purpose of confirmation and enforcement of any award. The prevailing party in any arbitration shall be entitled to recover its costs and expenses (including attorney’s fees and expenses) from the non-prevailing party.

9.3 Limitations on Assignment. Except as expressly permitted in this Section, none of Marathon, SBA or Sarif may grant or assign any rights or delegate any duties under this Agreement to any Third Party (including by way of a “change in control”) or may sell, transfer, or spin-off any of the Interests in Sarif or any of its material assets, including the Patents, without the prior written consent of TechDev and SFF. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Marathon, SBA or Sarif shall be permitted to transfer or assign (i) the Patents; (ii) a majority of the Interests; or (iii) its respective its rights, interests and obligations under this Agreement, as applicable, without Seller’ prior written consent as part of a sale of all or substantially all of its business, equity to, or a change in control transaction with a Third Party acquirer (an “M&A Transaction”, and an “Acquirer,” respectively); provided that (a) such transfer or assignment is subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Collateral Agreements; and (ii) such Acquirer executes a written undertaking towards Seller agreeing to be bound by all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Collateral Agreements with respect to the rights being transferred or assigned. Except as otherwise expressly limited herein, the provisions hereof shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the successors, permitted assigns, heirs, executors, and administrators of the Parties hereto.

9.4 This Agreement and the Exhibits and Schedules hereto constitute the full and entire understanding and agreement between the Parties with regard to the subject matters hereof and thereof and any other written or oral agreement relating to the subject matter hereof existing between the Parties are expressly canceled. Any term of this Agreement may be amended only with the written consent of all Parties thereto. The observance of any term hereof may be waived (either prospectively or retroactively and either generally or in a particular instance) only with the written consent of the party against which such waiver is sought.

9.5 All notices and other communications required or permitted hereunder to be given to a Party to this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be faxed, emailed or mailed by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, or prepaid air courier, or otherwise delivered by hand or by messenger, addressed to such Party’s address as set forth above; or at such other address as the Party shall have furnished to each other Party in writing in accordance with this provision. Any notice sent in accordance with this Section shall be effective (i) if mailed, seven (7) business days after mailing, (ii) if by air courier two (2) business days after delivery to the courier service, (iii) if sent by messenger, upon delivery, and (iv) if sent via facsimile or email, upon transmission and electronic confirmation of receipt or (if transmitted and received on a non-business day) on the first business day following transmission and electronic confirmation of receipt (provided, however, that any notice of change of address shall only be valid upon receipt).

9.6 No delay or omission to exercise any right, power, or remedy accruing to any Party upon any breach or default under this Agreement, shall be deemed a waiver of any other breach or default theretofore or thereafter occurring. Any waiver, permit, consent, or approval of any kind or character on the part of any Party of any breach or default under this Agreement, or any waiver on the part of any Party of any provisions or conditions of this Agreement, must be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent specifically set forth in such writing. All remedies, either under this Agreement or by law or otherwise afforded to any of the Parties, shall be cumulative and not alternative.
