JUDICIAL SYSTEM AND OF ARBITRATION, EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY WAIVES ALL RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY PROCEEDINGS BROUGHT TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN OR AMONG ANY OF THE PARTIES HERETO, WHETHER ARISING IN CONTRACT, TORT, OR
OTHERWISE, ARISING OUT OF, CONNECTED WITH, RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY AND/OR THE RELATIONSHIP ESTABLISHED AMONG THE PARTIES HEREUNDER. EACH OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT XXXXXX AGREES AND
CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH PROCEEDINGS SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY AND THAT THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OF A COPY OF THIS AGREEMENT WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF THE PARTIES
HERETO TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.

any of the parties hereto arising in whole or in part under or in connection with this Agreement or the negotiation, terms or performance hereof in any manner permitted by Delaware law, (b) agrees that service of process made in accordance with clause (a) or made by overnight delivery by a nationally recognized courier service at his, her or its address specified pursuant to Section 12(d) will constitute good and valid service of process in any such Proceedings, and (c) xxxxxx and agrees not to assert (by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise) in
any such action any claim that service of process made in accordance with clause (a) or (b) does not constitute good and valid service of process.
h. Headings. The headings of the Sections of this Agreement are for the convenience of reference only, and are not to be considered in construing the terms and provisions of this
Agreement.
i. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties hereto and their respective successors and
permitted assigns. The Parties agree that New PubCo, as successor to FIAC, shall be a party to this Agreement.
j. Execution in Counterparts; Facsimile and E-Mail Signatures. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts and by the parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of
which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original, and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart to this Agreement in facsimile or other electronic format (including
documents in PDF format) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart to this Agreement.
18
k. Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under Applicable Law, but if any provision of
this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any Applicable Law in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability will not affect any other provision or the effectiveness or validity of any
provision in any other jurisdiction, and this Agreement will be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein.
l. Remedies Cumulative. No remedy herein conferred upon any party is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy, and each and every such remedy shall be
cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise. No single or partial exercise by any party of any right, power or remedy hereunder shall preclude
any other or further exercise thereof.
m. No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is for the sole benefit of the parties hereto and their successors and permitted assigns and nothing herein expressed or implied
shall give or be construed to give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and such assigns, any legal or equitable rights hereunder.
n. Construction and Interpretation. This Agreement shall be construed without regard to any presumption or rule requiring construction or interpretation against the party drafting
or causing any agreement, instrument or document to be drafted.
