The Guarantor agrees that the obligations of Guarantor hereunder shall not be released or discharged, in whole or in part, or otherwise affected by (i) the failure or delay on the part of the Guaranteed Party to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against Parent, Merger Sub, any Other Guarantor or any other person interested in the Transactions, (ii) any change in the time, place or manner of payment of any portion of the Obligations or any rescission, waiver, compromise, consolidation or other amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of the Merger Agreement made in accordance with the terms thereof or any agreement evidencing, securing or otherwise executed in connection with any portion of the Obligations (in each case, except in the event of any amendment to the circumstances under which the Obligations are payable), (iii) the addition, substitution, any legal or equitable discharge or release (in the case of a discharge or release, other than a discharge or release of the Guarantor with respect to the Obligations as a result of payment in full of the Obligations in accordance with their terms, a discharge or release of Parent with respect to the Obligations under the Merger Agreement, or as a result of defenses to the payment of the Obligations that would be available to Parent under the Merger Agreement) of any person now or hereafter liable with respect to any portion of the Obligations or otherwise interested in the Transactions (including any Other Guarantor), (iv) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of Parent, Merger Sub or any other person now or hereafter liable with respect to any portion of the Obligations or otherwise interested in the Transactions (including any Other Guarantor), (v) any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting Parent, Merger Sub or any other person now or hereafter liable with respect to any portion of the Obligations or otherwise interested in the Transactions (including any Other Guarantor), (vi) the existence of any claim, set-off or other right that the Guarantor may have at any time against Parent or Merger Sub or the Guaranteed Party, whether in connection with the Obligations or otherwise, (vii) any other act or omission that may in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of or to the Guarantor or otherwise operate as a discharge of the Guarantor as a matter of law or equity (other than a discharge of the Guarantor with respect to the Obligations as a result of payment in full of the Obligations in accordance with their terms, a discharge of Parent with respect to the Obligations under the Merger Agreement, or as a result of defenses to the payment of the Obligations that would be available to Parent under the Merger Agreement) or (viii) the adequacy of any other means the Guaranteed Party may have of obtaining payment related to the Obligations.
(b) To the fullest extent permitted by Law, the Guarantor hereby expressly waives any and all rights or defenses arising by reason of any Law that would otherwise require any election of remedies by the Guaranteed Party.

The Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive substantial direct and indirect benefits from the Transactions and that the waivers set forth in this Limited Guarantee are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.
(c) The Guaranteed Party hereby covenants and agrees that it shall not institute, directly or indirectly, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and its Affiliates (which, for the avoidance of doubt, does not include the Founder Parties for purposes of this Limited Guarantee) not to institute, directly or indirectly, any proceeding or bring any other claim arising under, or in connection with, the Merger Agreement, the Transactions or the Equity Commitment Letter between the Guarantor and Goliath Group Holdings Limited (the “Equity Commitment Letter” and together with the other equity commitment letters between each Other Guarantor and Goliath Group Holdings Limited, collectively, the “Equity Commitment Letters”), against the Guarantor or any Non-Recourse Party (as defined in Section 9), except for claims against the Guarantor under this Limited Guarantee (subject to the limitations described herein) and against the Other Guarantors under the Other Guarantees (subject to the limitations described therein). The Guarantor hereby covenants and agrees that it shall not institute, directly or indirectly, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and its Affiliates not to institute, directly or indirectly, any proceeding asserting or assert as a defense in any proceeding, subject to clause (ii) of the last sentence of clause (d) hereof, that this Limited Guarantee is illegal, invalid or unenforceable in accordance with its terms.
(d) The Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives and agrees not to exercise any rights that it may now have or hereafter acquire against Parent or Merger Sub that arise from the existence, payment, performance, or enforcement of the Guarantor’s obligations under or in respect of this Limited Guarantee or any other agreement in connection therewith, including any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification and any right to participate in any claim or remedy of the Guaranteed Party against Parent, Merger Sub or any Other Guarantor, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity or under contract, statute or common Law, including the right to take or receive from Parent, Merger Sub or any Other Guarantor, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or in any other manner, payment or security on account of such claim, remedy or right, unless and until all of the Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Limited Guarantee shall have been paid in full in immediately available funds. If any amount shall be paid to the Guarantor in violation of the immediately preceding sentence at any time prior to the payment in full in immediately available funds of the Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Limited Guarantee, such amount shall be received and held in trust for the benefit of the Guaranteed Party, shall be segregated from other property and funds of the Guarantor and shall forthwith be paid or delivered to the Guaranteed Party in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement or assignment) to be credited and applied to the Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Limited Guarantee, whether matured or unmatured, or to be held as collateral for the Obligations or other amounts payable under this Limited Guarantee thereafter arising. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Limited Guarantee but subject Section 3(a), the Guaranteed Party hereby agrees that: (i) to the extent Parent and Merger Sub are relieved of any of their obligations with respect to the Parent Termination Fee, the Guarantor shall be similarly relieved of its Guaranteed Percentage of such obligations under this Limited Guarantee and (ii) the Guarantor shall have all defenses to the payment of its obligations under this Limited Guarantee (which in any event shall be subject to the Cap to the extent applicable) that would be available to Parent and/or Merger Sub under the Merger Agreement with respect to the Obligations as well as any defenses in respect of fraud or willful misconduct of the Guaranteed Party hereunder or any breach by the Guaranteed Party of any term hereof.
