(a) Neither this Management Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned, transferred, delegated or otherwise disposed of (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, directly or indirectly, by operation of law, merger, sale of stock, sale of assets or otherwise), by Manager without the prior written consent of Owner. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) Manager may, without the prior consent of Owner, assign, transfer, delegate or otherwise dispose of, this Management Agreement, or any of its rights, interests or obligations hereunder to any Affiliate of the Manager, in whole or in part; provided, however, that such Affiliate remains an Affiliate of the Manager at all times following such assignment, transfer, delegation or other disposition and (if this Management Agreement is in whole assigned, transferred, delegated or disposed to such an Affiliate) signs a joinder agreement and is bound hereunder, but no such assignment, transfer, delegation or other disposition shall relieve Manager of any of its obligations hereunder. Any purported assignment, transfer, delegation or disposition by Manager in violation of this Section 8.3 shall be null and void ab initio.

(b) Subject to the foregoing, Owner acknowledges and agrees that any or all of the duties of Manager as contained herein may be delegated pursuant to this Section 8.3(b) by Manager and performed by a person or entity (“Submanager”) with whom Manager contracts for the purpose of performing such duties. Owner specifically grants Manager the authority to enter into such a contract with a Submanager; provided, however, that, unless Owner otherwise agrees in writing with such Submanager, Owner shall have no liability or responsibility to any such Submanager for the payment of the Submanager’s fee or for reimbursement to the Submanager of its expenses or to indemnify the Submanager in any manner for any matter. Any contract entered into between Manager and a Submanager pursuant to this Section 8.3 shall be consistent with the provisions of this Management Agreement, except to the extent Owner otherwise specifically agrees in writing. This Management Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and permitted assigns.

8.4 No Waiver. The failure of Owner to seek redress for violation or to insist upon the strict performance of any covenant or condition of this Management Agreement shall not constitute a waiver thereof for the future.

8.5 Amendments. This Management Agreement may be amended only by an instrument in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of the amendment is sought.

8.6 Headings. The titles and headings of sections and subsections contained in this Management Agreement are for convenience only, and they neither form a part of this Management Agreement nor are they to be used in the construction or interpretation hereof.

8.7 Counterparts. This Management Agreement may be executed with counterpart signature pages or in multiple counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original as against any party whose signature appears thereon, and all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument. This Management Agreement shall become binding when one or more counterparts hereof, individually or taken together, shall bear the signatures of all of the parties reflected hereon as the signatories.

8.8 Facsimile Signatures. A facsimile or other electronic signature on the signature pages hereto shall for all purposes be deemed an original and shall bind the xxxxxx as if such facsimile or other electronic signature were an original.

8.9 Entire Agreement. Subject to express references to past practices contained herein, this Management Agreement contains the entire agreement and understanding among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings, inducements and conditions, express or implied, oral or written, of any nature whatsoever with respect to the subject matter hereof.

Manager and Owner shall not be construed as joint venturers or partners of each other pursuant to this Management Agreement, and neither shall have the power to bind or obligate the other except as set forth herein.

8.14 Licensing Claims. Owner shall not (i) bring or cause to be brought or support any Licensing Claim or (ii) seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed under this Management Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, Owner’s past or future payment to Manager of fees and expenses under this Management Agreement) as result of or with respect to any Licensing Claim. For the avoidance of doubt, Owner may respond to requests for information from any Governmental Authority with respect to Licensing Claims. Owner shall not have any indemnification obligations under Section 6.5 or otherwise with respect to Licensing Claims or any Losses arising from Licensing Claims.

8.15 Tax Cooperation. Each of Owner and Manager shall provide the other with such assistance and non-privileged information relating to their respective businesses as may reasonably be requested in connection with the preparation of any Tax Return or the performance of any audit, examination or any other proceeding by any Governmental Authority, whether conducted in a judicial or administrative forum; provided, however, that the requesting party shall bear all reasonable costs and expenses associated with such request.

8.16 No Presumption Against Drafter. Each of the parties has jointly participated in the negotiation and drafting of this Management Agreement. In the event of an ambiguity or a question of intent or interpretation arises, this Management Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by each of the parties, and no presumptions or burdens of proof shall arise favoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Management Agreement.
