ARTICLE III
CONSIDERATION

3.1 Conversion of Capital Stock.

(a) Conversion of Company Common Stock.  At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the Purchaser, Merger Sub, the Company or the Stockholders, each share of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than any Dissenting Shares) shall be canceled and automatically converted into the right to receive, without interest, (i) the number of shares of Purchaser Common Stock equal to the Exchange Ratio plus (ii) the number of Earnout Shares, if any, that may be issuable from time to time with respect to such share of Company Common Stock in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in Section 3.3.

(b) Conversion of Shares of Merger Sub.  Each share of Merger Sub that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will, by virtue of the Merger and without further action on the part of the sole stockholder of Merger Sub, be converted into and become one share of the Surviving Corporation (and the shares of Surviving Corporation into which the shares of Merger Sub are so converted shall be the only shares of the Surviving Corporation that are issued and outstanding immediately after the Effective Time).  Each certificate evidencing ownership of shares of Merger Sub will, as of the Effective Time, be deemed to evidence ownership of such shares of the Surviving Corporation.

(c) Shares of Dissenting Holders. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any issued and outstanding shares of Company Common Stock held by a person (a “Dissenting Holder”) who has not voted in favor of, or consented to, the adoption of this Agreement and has complied with all the provisions of the DGCL or other applicable law concerning the right of holders of Dissenting Shares to demand appraisal of their shares (the “Appraisal Provisions”) of Company Common Stock, to the extent the Appraisal Provisions are applicable, shall not be converted into the right to receive shares of Purchaser Common Stock as

10

set forth in Section 3.1(a), but instead shall become the right to receive such consideration as may be determined to be due to such Dissenting Holder pursuant to the procedures set forth in the DGCL or other applicable law. If such Dissenting Holder withdraws its demand for appraisal or fails to perfect or otherwise loses its right of appraisal, in any case pursuant to the DGCL or other applicable law, each of such Dissenting Holder’s shares of Company Common Stock shall thereupon be deemed to have been converted into and to have become, as of the Effective Time, the right to receive shares of Purchaser Common Stock as set forth in Section 3.1(a). The Company shall give the Purchaser prompt notice of any demands for appraisal of shares received by the Company, withdrawals of such demands and any other instruments served pursuant to the DGCL or other applicable law and shall give the Purchaser the opportunity to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect thereto. The Company shall not, without the prior written consent of the Purchaser, make any payment with respect to, or settle or offer to settle, any such demands.

(d) Treatment of Company Common Stock Owned by the Company.  At the Effective Time, all shares of Company Common Stock that are owned by the Company as treasury shares immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be canceled and extinguished without any conversion thereof.

(e) No Liability.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.1, no party hereto shall be liable to any person for any amount properly paid to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law.

(f) Surrender of Certificates.  All Closing Payment Shares issued upon the surrender of shares of the Company Common Stock in accordance with the terms hereof, shall be deemed to have been issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such securities, other than any additional rights pursuant to this Agreement, provided that any restrictions on the sale and transfer of such shares shall also apply to the Closing Payment Shares so issued in exchange.

(g) Lost or Destroyed Certificates.  In the event any certificates shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, the Surviving Corporation shall issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed certificates or securities, as the case may be, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the holder thereof, such securities, as may be required pursuant to this Section 3.1.

3.2 Issuance of Closing Payment Shares and Earnout Shares.

(a) No certificates or scrip representing fractional shares of Purchaser Common Stock will be issued pursuant to the Merger, and such fractional share interests will not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any rights of a stockholder of the Purchaser.

(b) Legend. Each certificate issued to any holder of Company Common Stock in connection with the Merger shall bear the legend set forth below, or legend substantially equivalent thereto, together with any other legends that may be required by any securities laws at the time of the issuance of the Purchaser Common Stock:

THE SHARES OF COMMON STOCK REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED

11

STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”) OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OR OTHER JURISDICTION, AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED UNLESS AND UNTIL (I) SUCH OFFER, SALE, TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR HYPOTHECATION HAS BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE ACT AND THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OR OTHER JURISDICTION COVERING SUCH SECURITIES OR (II) THE ISSUER OF THE SHARES OF COMMON STOCK HAS RECEIVED AN OPINION OF COUNSEL IN FORM AND SUBSTANCE SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER THAT SUCH OFFER, SALE OR TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR HYPOTHECATION IS IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE ACT AND SUCH OTHER APPLICABLE LAWS.

3.3 Earnout Shares.  The Stockholders shall be entitled to receive, as additional consideration for the Merger and without any action on the part of the Purchaser, Merger Sub, the Company or the Stockholders, additional shares of Purchaser Common Stock (the “Earnout Shares”) as set forth below.  At the time any such Earnout Shares are earned and become issuable as provided below, (i) a total of 90.6% (rounded to the nearest whole share) of the Earnout Shares then earned and issuable shall be issued to the Stockholders on a pro-rata basis based on their Stockholder Per Share Percentage, and (ii) the remaining Earnout Shares that would otherwise have been issuable shall not be issuable to the Stockholders but in lieu thereof the number of authorized shares available for issuance under the Purchaser Equity Plan shall be automatically increased by an equivalent number of shares of Purchaser Common Stock.

(a) Following the Closing Date, if the daily volume weighted average price of Purchaser Common Stock in any 20 trading days within a 30 trading day period prior to the forty-two (42) month anniversary of the Closing Date is greater than or equal to $20.00 per share (the “First Earnout”), then the Stockholders shall be entitled to receive such number of additional shares of Purchaser Common Stock as equals the quotient of $20,000,000 divided by the Closing Price Per Share.

(b) Following the Closing Date, if the daily volume weighted average price of Purchaser Common Stock in any 20 trading days within a 30 trading day period prior to the six (6) year anniversary of the Closing Date is greater than or equal to $35.00 per share (the “Second Earnout”), then the Stockholders shall be entitled to receive such number of additional shares of Purchaser Common Stock as equals the quotient of $20,000,000 divided by the Closing Price Per Share.

(c) Following the Closing Date, if the daily volume weighted average price of Purchaser Common Stock in any 20 trading days within a 30 trading day period prior to the eight (8) year anniversary of the Closing Date is greater than or equal to $45.00 per share (the “Third Earnout” and together with the First Earnout and Second Earnout, the “Earnouts”), then the Stockholders shall be entitled to receive such number of additional shares of Purchaser Common Stock as equals the quotient of $20,000,000 divided by the Closing Price Per Share.

(d) In the event that after the Closing Date and during the period when any Earnout may still be earned (the “Earnout Period”), there is a Change of Control, then any Earnout

12

Shares that the Stockholders would have been entitled to receive pursuant to the First Earnout, the Second Earnout or the Third Earnout, as applicable, determined based on whether the aggregate consideration to be received by the Stockholders in exchange for a share of Purchaser Common Stock in such Change of Control equals or exceeds the applicable stock price threshold set forth in the applicable Earnout(s), shall be deemed earned with respect to the applicable Earnout(s) and issuable by the Purchaser to the Stockholders immediately prior to consummation of such Change of Control transaction (and in such event the percentage in clause (i) of Section 3.3 shall be 90.6% for all Earnout Shares thereby becoming issuable or such higher percentage as the board of directors of the Purchaser at that time may determine). By way of example, if such aggregate consideration is $25.00 and the First Earnout has not previously been earned and issued, the first Earnout shall be deemed earned and issuable but not the Second or Third Earnout. Any Earnouts not achieved in connection with the Change of Control shall be canceled and of no further force or effect.  For purposes hereof, a “Change of Control” means the occurrence in a single transaction or as a result of a series of related transactions, of one or more of the following events: (i) a merger, consolidation, reorganization or similar business combination transaction involving the Purchaser in which the holders of all of the outstanding equity interests of the Purchaser immediately prior to the consummation of such transaction do not directly own, beneficially or of record, immediately upon the consummation of such transaction, outstanding equity interests that represent a majority of the combined outstanding voting securities of the surviving entity in such transaction or a parent of the surviving entity in such transaction; (ii) a transaction in which a majority of the Purchaser’s voting securities are transferred to any Person, or any two more Persons acting as a group, and all Affiliates of such Person or Persons (each, a “Group”); or (iii) the consummation of the sale of substantially all of the assets of the Purchaser to any Person or Group.

(e) The maximum aggregate Earnout Shares, assuming the achievement of each Earnout, is equal to the quotient of $60,000,000 divided by the Closing Price Per Share.  Each Earnout shall only be earned one time, on the first instance that each applicable Earnout is earned, but each Earnout can be earned independently of any other Earnout. The Stockholders shall be entitled to receive, and the Purchaser shall issue, the applicable Earnout Shares promptly (but no later than five (5) Business Days) following the date the applicable Earnout is earned.

(f) At all times during the Earnout Period, the Purchaser shall keep available and reserved for issuance a sufficient number of authorized but unissued shares of Purchaser Common Stock to permit the Purchaser to satisfy the issuance of the Earnout Shares that may still be earned and issuable and shall take all commercially reasonable actions required to increase the authorized number of shares of Purchaser Common Stock if at any time there shall be insufficient unissued shares of Purchaser Common Stock to permit such reservation.

(g) All share and per share amounts shall be proportionally adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations and similar events. All distributions of Purchaser Common Stock with respect to the Earnout Shares during the Earnout Period, including, but not limited to, shares of Purchaser Common Stock issued as a result of stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations and similar events, shall be deemed to be Earnout Shares and shall be set aside and not issued until the Earnout Shares have been issued to the Stockholders or, if the Earnout Shares are not earned and issued, then all such distributions declared during such period shall be forfeited.

As of the date of this Agreement, Purchaser has $65,696,479.32 in the trust fund established by the Purchaser for the benefit of its public stockholders (the “Trust Fund”) in a trust account maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the “Trustee”) at Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx (the “Trust Account”), and such monies are invested in “government securities” (as such term is defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended) and held in trust by the Trustee pursuant to the Investment Management Trust Agreement, dated as of March 5, 2020, between the Purchaser and the Trustee (the “Trust Agreement”). The Trust Agreement has not been amended or modified and is valid and in full force and effect and is enforceable in accordance with its terms. The Purchaser has complied in all material respects with the terms of the Trust Agreement and is not in breach thereof or default thereunder and there does not exist under the Trust Agreement any event which, with the giving of notice or the lapse of time, would constitute such a breach or default by the Purchaser or the Trustee. There are no separate contracts, agreements, side letters or other understandings (whether written or unwritten, express or implied): (i) between the Purchaser and the Trustee that would cause the description of the Trust Agreement in the Purchaser SEC Documents to be inaccurate in any material respect; or (ii) that would entitle any Person (other than stockholders of the Purchaser who shall have elected to redeem their shares of Purchaser Common Stock pursuant to the Purchaser Organizational Documents) to any portion of the proceeds in the Trust Account. Prior to the Closing, none of the funds held in the Trust Account may be released or invested except in accordance with the Trust Agreement and the Purchaser Organizational Documents.  There are no Actions pending or, to the knowledge of the Purchaser, threatened in writing with respect to the Trust Account.

The Purchaser SEC Documents have been prepared in all material respects in accordance with the requirements of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, and the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act, as the case may be, and the rules and regulations thereunder. The Purchaser SEC Documents did not, at the time they were filed with the SEC (except to the extent that information contained in any Purchaser SEC Document has been revised or superseded by a later filed Purchaser SEC Document, then on the date of such filing), contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Each director and executive officer of the Purchaser has filed with the SEC on a timely basis all documents required with respect to the Purchaser by Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder.

(d) The Purchaser has established and maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act), which (i) are designed to ensure that material information relating to the Purchaser is made known to the Purchaser’s principal executive officer and its principal financial officer by others, and (ii) are effective in all material respects to perform the functions for which they were established.

5.16 Contracts.  Other than this Agreement and the Additional Agreements, there are no Contracts to which any of the Purchaser Parties is a party or by which any of their properties or assets may be bound, subject or affected, which creates or imposes a liability greater than $100,000, that prohibits, prevents, restricts or impairs in any material respect any business practice of the Purchaser or any acquisition of material property by the Purchaser, or that restricts in any material respect the ability of the Purchaser from engaging in business as currently conducted by it or from competing with any other Person (each such contract, a “Purchaser Material Contract”). All Purchaser Material Contracts have been made available to the Company other than those that

35

are exhibits to the Purchaser SEC Documents. With respect to each Purchaser Material Contract: (a) the Purchaser Material Contract is legal, valid, binding and enforceable in all material respects against the Purchaser and, to the knowledge of the Purchaser, the other parties thereto, and is in full force and effect; (ii) the Purchaser is not in breach or default, and no event has occurred that with the passage of time or giving of notice or both would constitute such a breach or default by the Purchaser Parties, or permit termination or acceleration by the other party; and (iii) to the knowledge of the Purchaser, no other party to any Purchaser Material Contract is in breach or default in any material respect, and no event has occurred that with the passage of time or giving of notice or both would constitute such a breach or default by such other party, or permit termination or acceleration by the Purchaser under any Purchaser Material Contract.

5.17 Litigation.  There is no Action that would be material to the Purchaser pending against, or to the knowledge of the Purchaser, threatened in writing against or affecting, the Purchaser Parties, any of their officers or directors with respect to the business of the Purchaser or any securities of the Purchaser or any of the assets of the Purchaser Parties or any Purchaser Material Contract before any court, Authority or official or which in any manner challenges or seeks to prevent or enjoin the transactions contemplated hereby or by the Additional Agreements.

5.20 Taxes.  The Purchaser Parties have or will have timely filed, or caused to be timely filed (taking into account valid extensions), all income and other material Tax Returns required to be filed by it, except where the failure to so file would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, which Tax Returns are correct and complete in all material respects, and has paid all Taxes required to be paid by the Purchaser Parties other than such Taxes for which adequate reserves in the Purchaser Financials have been established, and except for such Taxes the non-payment of which would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. There are no Actions pending against the Purchaser Parties in respect of any material Tax, and the Purchaser Parties have not been notified in writing of any proposed material Tax claims or assessments against the Purchaser Parties (other than, in each case, claims or assessments that have been settled or otherwise resolved in full).

In connection therewith, the Company shall instruct the employees, counsel, financial advisors, auditors and other authorized representatives of the Company to reasonably cooperate with Purchaser as relevant if required to achieve the foregoing. The Purchaser agrees to provide the Company with a reasonable opportunity to review any Proxy Statement and to not file the Proxy Statement without the Company’s approval (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(d) As of the date of the filing of the Proxy Statement with the SEC, none of the Company Information, Required Financial Statements or other financial information supplied by the Company for inclusion in the Proxy Statement, and none of the comparable financial and other information supplied by the Purchaser, shall contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. If at any time prior to Closing, a change in such financial or other information which would make the preceding sentence incorrect, should be discovered by the Company or the Purchaser, as the case maybe, such party shall promptly notify the other party of such change. The Company shall reasonably cooperate with Purchaser in its filing of the Proxy Statement and shall instruct the employees, counsel, financial advisors, auditors and other authorized representatives of the Company to reasonably cooperate with Purchaser in connection therewith.

(e) Prior to the filing of a definitive Proxy Statement with the SEC, the Purchaser shall establish a record date for, duly call, give notice of, convene and hold a meeting of the Purchaser’s stockholders (including any adjournment or postponement thereof, the “Purchaser Stockholder Meeting”) to be held as promptly as reasonably practicable following the filing of the definitive Proxy Statement for the sole purpose of obtaining approval of the Purchaser Stockholder Matters (including any adjournment of such meeting for the purpose of soliciting additional proxies in favor of such Purchaser Stockholder Matters) and such other matter as may be agreed by the Company. The Purchaser shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to solicit from its stockholders proxies in favor of the Purchaser Stockholder Matters and take all other reasonable action necessary or advisable to obtain such proxies and such stockholder approval and to secure the vote or consent of its stockholders required by and in compliance with all applicable Law and the Purchaser Organizational Documents. The Purchaser (i) shall consult with the Company regarding the record date and the date of the Purchaser Stockholder Meeting and (ii) shall not adjourn or postpone the Purchaser Stockholder Meeting without the prior written consent of Company; provided that the Purchaser may adjourn or postpone the Purchaser Stockholder Meeting (A) to the extent necessary to ensure that any supplement or amendment to the Proxy Statement that the Purchaser reasonably determines (following consultation with Company) is necessary to comply with applicable Laws, is provided to the Purchaser’s stockholders in advance of a vote on the adoption of this Agreement, (B) if, as of the time that the Purchaser Stockholder

44

Meeting is originally scheduled, there are insufficient shares of Purchaser Common Stock represented at such meeting (either in person or by proxy) to constitute a quorum necessary to conduct the business of the Purchaser Stockholder Meeting, or (C) if, as of the time that the Purchaser Stockholder Meeting is originally scheduled, adjournment or postponement of the Purchaser Stockholder Meeting is necessary to enable the Purchaser to solicit additional proxies required to obtain such stockholder approval.

(f) The Proxy Statement shall include a statement to the effect that the Purchaser’s board of directors has unanimously recommended that the Purchaser’s stockholders vote in favor of the Purchaser Stockholder Matters at the Purchaser Stockholder Meeting and neither the Purchaser’s board of directors nor any committee thereof shall withhold, withdraw, qualify, amend or modify, or publicly propose or resolve to withhold, withdraw, qualify, amend or modify, such recommendation.  

8.4 Confidentiality.  Except as necessary to complete the Proxy Statement or any other SEC filings, the Company, on the one hand, and Purchaser and Merger Sub, on the other hand, shall hold and shall cause their respective representatives to hold in strict confidence, unless compelled to disclose by judicial or administrative process or by other requirements of Law, all documents and information concerning the other party furnished to it by such other party or its representatives in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (except to the extent that such information can be shown to have been (a) previously known by the party to which it was furnished, (b) in the public domain through no fault of such party or (c) later lawfully acquired from other sources, which source is not the agent of the other party, by the party to which it was furnished), and each party shall not release or disclose such information to any other person, except its representatives in connection with this Agreement. In the event that any party believes that it is required to disclose any such confidential information pursuant to applicable Laws, to the extent legally permissible, such party shall give timely written notice to the other party so that such party may have an opportunity to obtain a protective order or other appropriate relief.  Each party shall be deemed to have satisfied its obligations to hold confidential information concerning or supplied by the other party if it exercises the same care as it takes to preserve confidentiality for its own similar information. The parties acknowledge that some previously confidential information will be required to be disclosed in the Proxy Statement and any other SEC filings.

8.5 Purchaser Equity Plan.  The parties shall cooperate to establish an equity incentive award plan for the Purchaser to be approved by the Purchaser’s stockholders and effective from and after the Effective Time (the “Purchaser Equity Plan”).

Such conversions shall be adjusted for any stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations and similar events.  Upon such conversions, such promissory notes shall be deemed to be paid in full.

45

8.7 Deferred Underwriting Discount; Amendments to Certain Purchaser Private Warrants.  As soon as practicable following the date of this Agreement, the parties shall cause: (i) the Deferred Underwriting Discount to be converted into shares of Purchaser Common Stock at a conversion price per share equal to $10.00 (adjusted for any stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations and similar events), of which 140,796 shares shall be issued to LifeSci Holdings LLC and 88,936 shares shall be issued to the underwriter in the Purchaser’s IPO; and (ii) 500,000 of the Purchaser Private Warrants held by Rosedale Park, LLC and 500,00 of the Purchaser Private Warrants held by LifeSci Holdings LLC shall without further action be amended to remove the cashless exercise provision and include a redemption provision substantially identical to the provision set forth in Section 6.1 of the Purchaser Public Warrants; provided, however, that such redemption rights may not be exercised during the first 12 months following the Closing unless the last sales price of the Purchaser Common Stock has been equal to or greater than $20.00 per share (subject to adjustment for splits, dividends, recapitalizations and other similar events) for any 20 trading days within a 30 trading day period ending on the third business day prior to the date on which notice of redemption is given.  If the Company determines that it needs additional capital prior to the time that the Purchaser Public Warrants may otherwise be called for redemption pursuant to the foregoing terms, the parties agree to discuss the possibility of calling the Purchaser Public Warrants for redemption prior to such time.  

8.8 Directors’ and Officers’ Indemnification and Liability Insurance.

(a) All rights to indemnification for acts or omissions occurring through the Closing Date now existing in favor of the current directors and officers of the Company and the Purchaser as provided in their respective organizational documents or in any indemnification agreements shall survive the applicable Merger and shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with their terms for a period of six years following the Closing Date.

(b) Prior to the Closing Date, the Purchaser shall purchase a directors and officers tail liability insurance policy, with respect to claims arising from facts and events that occurred prior to the Closing Date.

(c) The provisions of this Section 8.8 are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each Person who will have been a director or officer of the Company or the Purchaser for all periods ending on or before the Closing Date and may not be changed with respect to any officer or director without his or her written consent.

(b) Neither any failure or delay in exercising any right or remedy hereunder or in requiring satisfaction of any condition herein nor any course of dealing shall constitute a waiver of or prevent any party from enforcing any right or remedy or from requiring satisfaction of any condition.  No notice to or demand on a party waives or otherwise affects any obligation of that party or impairs any right of the party giving such notice or making such demand, including any right to take any action without notice or demand not otherwise required by this Agreement.  No exercise of any right or remedy with respect to a breach of this Agreement shall preclude exercise

53

of any other right or remedy, as appropriate to make the aggrieved party whole with respect to such breach, or subsequent exercise of any right or remedy with respect to any other breach.

12.3 Arm’s Length Transaction.  This Agreement has been negotiated at arm’s-length by parties of equal bargaining strength, each represented by counsel or having had but declined the opportunity to be represented by counsel and having participated in the drafting of this Agreement.  This Agreement creates no fiduciary or other special relationship between the parties, and no such relationship otherwise exists.  No presumption in favor of or against any party in the construction or interpretation of this Agreement or any provision hereof shall be made based upon which Person might have drafted this Agreement or such provision.

12.4 Publicity.  Except as required by law or applicable stock exchange rules, the parties agree that neither they nor their agents shall issue any press release or make any other public disclosure concerning the transactions contemplated hereunder without the prior approval of the other party hereto, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. If a party is required to make such a disclosure as required by law or applicable stock exchange rules, the party making such determination will, if practicable in the circumstances, use commercially reasonable efforts to allow the other party reasonable time to comment on such disclosure in advance of its issuance.

12.5 Expenses.  The costs and expenses of the parties in connection with this Agreement and the Additional Agreements and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (including, without limitation, repayment in full of the Bridge Financing) shall be paid by the Purchaser after the Closing.

12.6 No Assignment or Delegation.  No party may assign any right or delegate any obligation hereunder, including by merger, consolidation, operation of law, or otherwise, without the written consent of the other party.  Any purported assignment or delegation without such consent shall be void, in addition to constituting a material breach of this Agreement.

12.10 Severability.  A determination by a court or other legal authority that any provision that is not of the essence of this Agreement is legally invalid shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision hereof.  The parties shall cooperate in good faith to substitute (or cause such court or other legal authority to substitute) for any provision so held to be invalid a valid provision, as alike in substance to such invalid provision as is lawful.

12.11 Construction; Captions.  In this Agreement:

(a) References to particular sections and subsections, schedules, and exhibits not otherwise specified are cross-references to sections and subsections, schedules, and exhibits of this Agreement.

(b) The words “herein,” “hereof,” “hereunder,” and words of similar import refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement, and, unless the context requires otherwise, “party” means a party signatory hereto.

Any reference in a schedule contained in the disclosure schedules delivered by a party hereunder shall be deemed to be an exception to (or, as applicable, a disclosure for purposes of) the applicable representations and warranties (or applicable covenants) that are contained in the section of this Agreement that corresponds to such schedule and any other representations and warranties of such party that are contained in this

55

Agreement to which the relevance of such item thereto is reasonably apparent on its face.  The mere inclusion of an item in a schedule as an exception to (or, as applicable, a disclosure for purposes of) a representation or warranty shall not be deemed an admission that such item represents a material exception or material fact, event or circumstance or that such item would have a Material Adverse Effect or establish any standard of materiality to define further the meaning of such terms for purposes of this Agreement.

(e) If any action is required to be taken or notice is required to be given within a specified number of days following a specific date or event, the day of such date or event is not counted in determining the last day for such action or notice.  If any action is required to be taken or notice is required to be given on or before a particular day which is not a Business Day, such action or notice shall be considered timely if it is taken or given on or before the next Business Day.

A decision, act, consent or instruction of the Stockholders’ Representative shall, for all purposes hereunder, constitute a decision, act, consent or instruction of all of the Stockholders of the Company and shall be final, binding and conclusive upon each of the Stockholders. The Stockholders shall severally indemnify the Stockholders’ Representative and hold her harmless against any loss, liability, or expense incurred without gross negligence or bad faith on the part of the Stockholders’ Representative and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of her duties hereunder.
