1.4. Consents Not Obtained. In the event that Savsu fails to obtain prior to the Closing (or otherwise fails to have in full force and effect at the Closing) any consent, Permit, waiver, authorization, order or other approval required to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement without breaching a Contributed Contract or otherwise adversely affecting the ability of the JV to operate the Business after the Closing or the rights of the JV with respect to the Contributed Assets, the Assumed Liabilities or the BLS Inventory or otherwise under this Agreement (any of the foregoing, a “Necessary Consent”), this Agreement shall not constitute an agreement to sell, convey, assign, transfer or deliver any interest in any such Contributed Asset or BLS Inventory for which a Necessary Consent is not obtained and in effect at the Closing, and Savsu shall, from and after the Closing, continue to use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any such Necessary Consent for the benefit of the JV under the terms and conditions substantially the same as those existing under the applicable Contributed Asset or BLS Inventory at the Closing.

In exchange for the contributions made by Savsu under this Agreement, and in consideration of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, at the Closing, the JV will issue its equity interests to Savsu (such interests, the “Savsu Consideration”) so that as of the Closing, Savsu owns fifty-five percent (55%) of the issued and outstanding equity interests of the JV and BLS owns forty-five percent (45%) of the issued and outstanding equity interests of the JV.

1.6. Contribution of BLS Loan. The parties hereby agree that, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, effective as of the Closing, the obligations owed to BLS under the BLS Loan are hereby contributed, transferred, assigned, conveyed, transferred and delivered by BLS to the JV as a capital contribution.

1.7. Return and Contribution of BLS Inventory; Cancellation of BLS Inventory Requirements.

(a) The parties hereby agree that, subject to the Closing: (i) effective as of immediately prior to the Closing, BLS hereby returns, assigns, transfers and conveys to Savsu, and Savsu hereby acquires from BLS, the inventory set forth on Schedule III hereto (the “BLS Inventory”), in exchange for the cancellation, termination, extinguishment and release of all outstanding payables owed by BLS to Savsu; and (ii) effective as of the Closing, Savsu hereby contributes, assigns, transfers and conveys to Savsu, and the JV hereby acquires from Savsu, the BLS Inventory.

BLS hereby agrees that on (i) the first (1^st) anniversary of the Closing Date, it will transfer to Savsu an amount of membership interests in the JV equal to 11.11% of the membership interests in the JV held by BLS as of the Closing (after giving effect to the issuance of the Savsu Consideration) and (ii) the second (2^nd) anniversary of the Closing Date, it will transfer to Savsu an additional amount of membership interests in the JV equal to 33.33% of the membership interests in the JV held by BLS as of the Closing (after giving effect to the issuance of the Savsu Consideration).

7.3. Interpretation. The parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement and the Ancillary Documents. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement and the Ancillary Documents will be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties, and no presumption or burden of proof will arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement or the Ancillary Documents. The headings and subheadings of this Agreement are for reference and convenience purposes only and in no way modify, interpret or construe the meaning of specific provisions of the Agreement. In this Agreement, unless the context otherwise requires: (i) whenever required by the context, any pronoun used in this Agreement shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine or neuter forms, and the singular form of nouns, pronouns and verbs shall include the plural and vice versa; (ii) reference to any Person includes such Person’s successors and assigns but, if applicable, only if such successors and assigns are permitted by this Agreement; (iii) “including” (and with correlative meaning “include”) means including without limiting the generality of any description preceding or succeeding such term and shall be deemed in each case to be followed by the words “without limitation”; (v) the words “herein,” “hereto,” and “hereby” and other words of similar import in this Agreement shall be deemed in each case to refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular Article, Section or other subdivision of this Agreement; (vi) reference to any statute includes any rules and regulations promulgated thereunder; (vii) any Contract, Law or Order defined or referred to herein or in any agreement or instrument that is referred to herein means such Contract, Law or Order as from time to time amended, modified or supplemented, including (in the case of Contracts) by waiver or consent and (in the case of Laws or Orders) by succession of comparable successor Laws or Orders and references to all attachments thereto and instruments incorporated therein; (viii) except as otherwise indicated, all references in this Agreement to the words “Article”, “Section”, “Schedule”, “Exhibit”, “Annex” are intended to refer to articles, sections, schedules, exhibits and annexes to this Agreement; and (ix) any reference to dollars or “$” means United States dollars.

7.4. Severability. In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality, and enforceability of the remaining provisions will not in any way be affected or impaired. Any illegal or unenforceable term will be deemed to be void and of no force and effect only to the minimum extent necessary to bring such term within the provisions of applicable Law and such term, as so modified, and the balance of this Agreement will then be fully enforceable. The parties will substitute for any invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision a suitable and equitable provision that carries out, so far as may be valid, legal and enforceable, the intent and purpose of such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision.

7.5. Assignment; Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement may not be assigned by any party without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto, and any attempted assignment in violation of this Section 7.5 shall be null and void ab initio; provided, however, that BLS may without such consent assign its rights and benefits hereunder to any Affiliate of BLS (provided, that BLS shall remain primarily responsible for its obligations hereunder). Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will apply to, be binding in all respects upon and inure to the benefit of the successors and permitted assigns of each party hereto. Except for the indemnification rights of the Indemnitees set forth herein, 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 successors and permitted assigns, any legal or equitable rights hereunder.

7.6. Amendment; Waiver. This Agreement may not be amended or modified except by an instrument in writing signed by each of the parties hereto. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein: (a) the failure of any party at any time to require performance by the other of any provision of this Agreement will not affect such party’s right thereafter to enforce the same; (b) no waiver by any party of any default by any other party will be valid unless in writing and acknowledged by an authorized representative of the non-defaulting party, and no such waiver will be taken or held to be a waiver by such party of any other preceding or subsequent default; and (c) no extension of time granted by any party for the performance of any obligation or act by any other party will be deemed to be an extension of time for the performance of any other obligation or act hereunder.

7.7. Remedies. Except as specifically set forth in this Agreement, any party having any rights under any provision of this Agreement will have all rights and remedies set forth in this Agreement and all rights and remedies which such party may have been granted at any time under any other contract or agreement and all of the rights which such party may have under any applicable Law. Except as specifically set forth in this Agreement, any such party will be entitled to (a) enforce such rights specifically, without posting a bond or other security or proving that monetary damages would be inadequate, (b) to recover damages by reason of a breach of any provision of this Agreement and (c) to exercise all other rights granted by applicable Law. The exercise of any remedy by a party will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy by such party.

7.8. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York (without giving effect to its choice of law principles). For purposes of any Action arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any transaction contemplated hereby, each party hereto (a) irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of any state or federal court located within Nassau County, State of New York (or in any court in which appeal from such courts may be taken), (b) agrees that service of any process, summons, notice or document by U.S. registered mail to such party’s respective address set forth in Section 7.2 shall be effective service of process for any Action with respect to any matters to which it has submitted to jurisdiction in this Section 7.8, and (c) waives and covenants not to assert or plead, by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise, in any such Action, any claim that it is not subject personally to the jurisdiction of such court, that the Action is brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of the Action is improper or that this Agreement or the subject matter hereof may not be enforced in or by such court, and hereby agrees not to challenge such jurisdiction or venue by reason of any offsets or counterclaims in any such Action. Each party agrees that a final judgement in any such Action shall be conclusive and may be enforced in each other jurisdiction by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law or in equity. Each party hereto hereby knowingly, voluntarily and intentionally waives any right such party may have to a trial by jury in respect to any litigation based hereon, or arising out of, under, or in connection with this Agreement and any agreement contemplated to be executed in connection herewith, or any course of conduct, course of dealing, statements (whether verbal or written) or actions of any party in connection with such agreements, in each case, whether now existing or hereafter arising and whether in tort, contract or otherwise. Each party hereto acknowledges that it has been informed by the other parties hereto that this Section 7.8 constitutes a material inducement upon which they are relying and will rely in entering into this Agreement.

7.9. Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the schedules, exhibits and annexes hereto, which are hereby incorporated herein by reference and deemed part of this Agreement), together with the Ancillary Documents constitute the entire agreement among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and undertakings, both written and oral, with respect to the subject matter hereof.

7.10. JV Action. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, all actions, determinations and authorizations on the part of the JV under this Agreement shall be taken and authorized by the JV Board (excluding, in the case of any dispute with the JV involving (i) Savsu (or related Indemnitee), any managers designed by Savsu under the Amended JV Operating Agreement, or (ii) BLS (or related Indemnitee), any managers designed by BLS under the Amended JV Operating Agreement; provided that all voting and quorum requirements shall ignore such excluded managers), and the JV shall not be deemed to have taken any action, made any determination or provided any authorization under this Agreement that has not been so authorized by the JV Board.

7.11. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, and by the different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when executed shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. A photocopy, faxed, scanned and/or emailed copy of this Agreement or any Ancillary Document or any signature page to this Agreement or any Ancillary Document, shall have the same validity and enforceability as an originally signed copy.
