CERTAIN ADDITIONAL COVENANTS

          4.2 Press Releases and Disclosure. Save in respect of the notification by the Seller to the relevant Hong Kong regulatory authority of the entering into and closing of the transactions contemplated hereunder, no Party shall, and each Party shall cause its Affiliates, counsel, accountants, advisors, directors, officers, employees, investment bankers, agents and other representatives not to, issue or cause publication of any press release or other announcement or public communication with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or otherwise disclose this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby to any third party without the consent of the other Parties hereto, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld except (a) as required by law court order or judicial process and after conferring with the other parties concerning the timing and content of such required disclosure, and (b) in the case of Buyer or UEI, (i) as may be required of Buyer or UEI by, or as may be advisable under, applicable Securities and Exchange Commission laws, rules or regulations, by any, or as required by a stock exchange.

As long as Seller and its shareholders owns the UEI Shares, UEI shall remain a “reporting issuer” as defined in Rule 902(i) to Regulation S, subject to ten (10) calendar days written notice otherwise by UEI to Seller. UEI further covenants that it will take such further commercially reasonable action as Seller may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable Seller to sell the Securities without registration under the ‘33 Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144.
          4.5 Piggy-back Registrations. If at any time during which Seller holds the UEI Shares, there is not an effective registration statement covering the resale of UEI Shares by Seller or its permitted transferees, and UEI shall determine to prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement relating to an offering for its own account or the account of others under the ‘33 Act of any of its equity securities, other than on Form S-4 or Form S-8 (each as promulgated under the ‘33 Act) or their then equivalents relating to equity securities to be issued solely in connection with any acquisition of any entity or business or its shares of common stock issuable in connection with stock option or other employee benefit plans, then UEI shall promptly send to Seller written notice of such determination and, if within fifteen days after receipt of such notice, Seller or its permitted transferees holding, in the aggregate, at least twenty (20%) percent of the UEI Shares issued as the Stock Portion hereunder shall so request in writing, UEI shall include in such registration statement all or any part of such UEI Shares not theretofore registered Seller requests to be registered, subject to customary underwriter cutbacks after any other holders of registration rights have been cutback in full. All expenses incurred in connection with any such registration of the UEI Shares shall be borne solely by UEI; provided that Seller or other transferee shall be solely responsible for any commissions, underwriting discounts or brokerage fees in connection with the sale of UEI Shares thereunder. Seller shall have the right to assign its rights under this Section 4.5 to any transferee of the UEI Shares, so long as the transfer is in compliance with an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the ‘33 Act. In connection with any such registration, Seller or any permitted transferee shall be required to provide selling shareholder questionnaires and other customary documents as a condition to inclusion of such UEI Shares in the registration statement. Nothing contained herein shall prohibit UEI from determining, at any time, not to file a registration statement or, if filed, to withdraw such registration or terminate or abandon the offering related thereto. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 4.5 to the contrary, UEI shall not be obligated to include any UEI Shares issued hereunder in any registration statement in the event that the holder thereof may then sell all of such holder’s UEI Shares issued hereunder to the public in accordance with Rule 144 under the ‘33 Act or any successor provision thereof, without regard to any volume restrictions contained in such Rule 144.

          4.7 Transfer of Shares to shareholders of Seller. UEI hereby acknowledges that the Seller intends to distribute the UEI Shares to its shareholders relying on exemption under Reg S, and UEI shall instruct its transfer agent to record the issuance of the UEI Shares accordingly.

The date upon which any representation, warranty contained herein shall terminate, if any, is referred to herein as the “Survival Date.”
          (b) Assertion of Claims. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, no claim shall be brought under this ARTICLE VII unless the Indemnified Party, at any time prior to the applicable Survival Date, gives the Indemnifying Party(ies) a Claim Notice pursuant to Section 7.4 in respect of such claim or in respect of a Third Party Claim the existence of which might give rise to a claim.
     7.2 Indemnity Obligations
          (a) Indemnity by Seller. Subject to Section 7.3 hereof, Seller shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Buyer and UEI (collectively, the “Buyer Indemnitees” provided that there shall not be any double claim against the Buyer) from and against any and all Damages arising out of or resulting from:
               (i) Any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty made by Seller in this Agreement (including the Disclosure Schedules) as of the date hereof and as of the Closing; and

The Claim Notice shall state the nature and basis of such Claim and the amount thereof to the extent known. If such Claim relates to any assertion by any third party of any claim or of the commencement by any such third party of any action (a “Third Party Claim”) with respect to which an Indemnifying Party(ies) is/are or may be obligated to provide indemnification, the Indemnified Party shall give a Claim Notice to the Indemnifying Party, within thirty (30) Business Days of receipt of notice of such Third Party Claim (or such shorter period as may be warranted under the circumstances, such as in the case of emergency proceedings or when a response to a notification must be given within a period in order to avoid a forfeiture of rights); provided, however, that no delay on the part of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Parties shall relieve the Indemnifying Party or Indemnifying Parties (as the case may be) from any Liability hereunder so long as the Claim Notice is served prior to Survival Date.

27


 

Party (or Indemnifying Parties, as the case may be) which written advice (or a summary thereof) shall be provided to the Indemnifying Party promptly after receipt by the Indemnified Party, (iii) in the reasonable determination of the Indemnified Party, which determination shall be provided in writing to the Indemnifying Party promptly after having made such action or proceeding involves, or could have a material effect on, any material matter beyond the scope of the indemnification obligation of the Indemnifying Party (or Indemnifying Parties, as the case may be) or (iv) the Indemnifying Party shall not have assumed the defense of the Third Party Claim in a timely fashion (which shall not in any event be less than 15 Business Days).
          (b) Participation by Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party shall assume the defense of a Third Party Claim as provided herein, the Indemnifying Party shall permit the Indemnified Party to participate in the settlement or defense of such claim through counsel chosen by the Indemnified Party, provided that the fees and expenses of such counsel shall not be borne by the Indemnifying Party. No Indemnifying Party shall under any circumstances whatsoever consent to the entry of any judgment, pay or make any settlement of any claims without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).
          (c) Assumption of Defense by Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party, or the Indemnifying Parties, as the case may be, does not or do not notify the Indemnified Party within the applicable period specified above after receipt of the Claim Notice that it or they (as the case may be) elect to undertake the defense of the Third Party Claim described therein, or the Indemnifying Party (or Indemnifying Parties, as the case may be) is or are otherwise restricted from so assuming the defense as a result of the application of the proviso to Section 7.5(a), (i) the Indemnified Party shall have the right to defend the Third Party Claim but shall not consent to the entry of any judgment, pay or settle such Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party or the Indemnifying Parties, as the case may be, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, (ii) the Indemnifying Party (or Indemnifying Parties, as the case may be) shall reimburse the Indemnified Party promptly and periodically for the costs properly incurred in defending against the Third Party Claim (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses), and (iii) the Indemnifying Party (or Indemnifying Parties, as the case may be) will remain responsible for any Damages the Indemnified Party may suffer resulting from, arising out of, relating to, in the nature of, or caused by the Third Party Claim to the extent provided in this ARTICLE VII.
     7.6 Objection to Claim Notice. If any Indemnifying Party wishes to object to a Claim or Third Party Claim made in a Claim Notice, such Indemnifying Party shall give a written objection (an “Objection”) to the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) Business Days after receipt of such Claim Notice expressing such Objection and explaining in detail and in good faith the basis thereof. The objecting Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall meet within fifteen (15) Business Days following receipt by the Indemnified Party of such Objection to agree on the rights of the respective parties with respect to each of such Claim or Third Party Claim. If such Parties should reach an agreement, a memorandum setting forth such agreement shall be prepared and signed by all such Parties. If such Parties do not reach such an agreement within such fifteen (15) Business Day period, then the matter shall be resolved in accordance with Section 8.1 hereof.

28


 

     7.7 Payment. The payment of any sum due or payable by Seller under this Article VII shall (i) be made in immediately available funds by bank wire transfer to an account designated in writing by Buyer, the payment of which shall be secured by the Holdback Amount, in accordance with the terms and provisions of Section 1.2(a) (until the expiration of the Holdback Period in respect of claims where Claim Notices have been served prior to the Survival Date and subject to that portion of the Holdback Amount that has been segregated to cover any such pending Claims) and (ii) be paid as follows:
