(d) As used herein, “Expiration Date” means the earliest to occur of (i) the Closing, (ii) such date and time as the Business Combination Agreement shall be terminated in accordance with its terms, and (iii) upon the mutual written agreement of the Parties.

(b) The Shareholder (if not an individual) has the requisite corporate, limited liability company or other similar power and authority and, if the Shareholder is an individual, legal capacity to execute and deliver this Agreement, to perform his, her or its covenants, agreements and obligations hereunder (including, for the avoidance of doubt, those covenants, agreements and obligations hereunder that relate to the provisions of the Business Combination Agreement), and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.
