If Parent and Purchaser have not mutually agreed to the Purchase Price Allocation within sixty (60) days following Closing (or at such time as otherwise mutually agreed to by the parties in writing), the matters in dispute between them shall be referred to the Neutral Auditor whose determination shall be final and binding upon the parties. Any subsequent adjustments to the Purchase Price shall be reflected in the Purchase Price Apportionment as an adjustment to the Purchase Price paid for the Company Interests or the U.S. Entity Interests, as applicable, to the extent the adjustment relates to the Company Interests or the U.S. Entity Interests, as applicable. To the extent subsequent adjustments are made to the portion of the Purchase Price in respect of the U.S. Entity Interests, Parent shall make appropriate modifications to the Purchase Price Allocation to take into account such adjustments subject to review by Purchaser.

(b) For claims for indemnification for which a Notice of Direct Claim is made pursuant to Section 6.3(a), Parent, if Parent is the Indemnifying Party, or Purchaser, if Purchaser is the Indemnifying Party, shall have twenty (20) Business Days after its receipt of the Notice of Direct Claim to respond to the claim(s) for indemnification described therein by notice delivered to Parent, if any Purchaser Indemnitee is the Indemnified Party, or Purchaser, if any Parent Indemnitee is the Indemnified Party. Such response shall set forth, in reasonable detail, any objection(s) to the claim(s) and the basis for such objection(s). Parent and Purchaser shall negotiate to attempt to resolve such claim(s) for indemnification for a period of not less than twenty (20) Business Days after such response is provided. If the Indemnifying Party does not deliver a response to a Notice of Claim within the twenty (20) Business Day period referred to above, or if Parent and Purchaser are unable to resolve such claim(s) within the twenty (20) Business Day period after delivery of such a response, the applicable Indemnified Party may thereafter pursue its claim for indemnification or any other remedies available to it with respect to such claim(s).

(c) The Indemnified Party shall, and shall cause each of its Affiliates to, assist Parent, if Parent is the Indemnifying Party, or Purchaser, if Purchaser is the Indemnifying Party,

in its analysis of the matter giving rise to such Notice of Direct Claim, including reasonably cooperating with, making its relevant files and records reasonably available to, making its employees and representatives reasonably available to, and otherwise rendering reasonable assistance to, Parent or Purchaser, as applicable, with respect to such matter.

SECTION 6.4. Indemnification Procedure – Third Party Claims. (a) Promptly after obtaining written notice of any matter involving a claim or Proceeding by a third party that an Indemnified Party believes may entitle such Indemnified Party to indemnification from any Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Article VI, such Indemnified Party shall provide to Parent, if Parent is the Indemnifying Party, or to Purchaser, if Purchaser is the Indemnifying Party, written notice describing such matter in reasonable detail, including, to the extent known and quantified, the nature of the matter, the basis for the claim that it is subject to indemnification and the amount and nature of the Losses each with respect thereto (a “Notice of Third Party Claim” and, together with a Notice of Direct Claim, each a “Notice of Claim”); provided, however, that the failure of an Indemnified Party to timely provide a Notice of Third Party Claim or to include any particular details in such Notice of Third Party Claim shall not relieve any Indemnifying Party from any obligation to indemnify any Indemnified Party with respect thereto, except to the extent that such Indemnified Party’s failure to provide, delay in providing, or omission of any particular detail in a Notice of Third Party Claim actually prejudices the ability of Parent, if Parent is the Indemnifying Party, or Purchaser, if Purchaser is the Indemnifying Party, to defend against or contest such matter.

(b) Parent, if Parent is the Indemnifying Party, or Purchaser, if Purchaser is the Indemnifying Party, shall have the right to assume and pursue the defense of any Claim or Proceeding by a third party other than an Other Claim, for which any Indemnified Party has provided a Notice of Third Party Claim (a “Third Party Claim”) with counsel selected by Parent or Purchaser, as applicable, that is reasonably acceptable to the other, upon notification thereof to the Indemnified Party within forty-five (45) days or a sooner period to extent that the passage of time actually prejudices the Indemnified Party (the “Assumption Period”) after the Notice of Claim has been delivered to the Indemnifying Party; provided, however, that, as a condition precedent to the Indemnifying Party’s right to assume control of such defense, it must first agree in writing irrevocably, that (i) subject to the limitations set forth in this Article VI (including the Threshold and the Indemnity Cap) any Losses resulting therefrom are indemnifiable Losses for which the Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification under this Article VI and (ii) the Indemnifying Party shall post any bond or other security to the extent required in connection with the defense or appeal of such Third Party Claim; and provided further, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume control of such defense if: (A) the Claim or Proceeding set forth in the Notice of Third Party Claim involves (I) a request primarily for equitable relief or any other non-monetary relief against the Indemnified Party, (II) criminal liability or (III) a Claim for which there is a reasonable probability that the Losses will exceed two hundred percent (200%) of (x) the amount of the indemnification cap under this Article VI applicable to such Claim minus (y) the aggregate amount of Losses that have been paid to the Indemnified Party by the Indemnifying Party prior to the date such Claim is received by the Company and the aggregate amount of Losses claimed in all then outstanding Notices of Claims; or (B) the Indemnifying Party does not provide notice of its election to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim during the Assumption Period (an “Other Claim”). Unless and until the Indemnified Party receives such notification from the Indemnifying Party within the Assumption

Period that it will assume the defense of a Third Party Claim and solely to the extent that the Indemnified Party would be actually prejudiced by inaction with regard to its defense during such Assumption Period, the Indemnified Party may, but shall not be obligated to, fully assume, commence and pursue its defense of such Third Party Claim, but if it does assume, commence and pursue such defense it shall promptly inform the Indemnified Party of all material developments related thereto. If the Indemnifying Party does assume the control of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right, at its own cost and expense, to participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim with counsel selected by it, subject to the right of Parent, if Parent is the Indemnifying Party, or Purchaser, if Purchaser is the Indemnifying Party, to control the defense thereof; provided, that in connection with such participation, the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to retain one counsel, selected by the Indemnified Party, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party to the extent an actual or potential conflict of interest exists between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party in respect of any such defense or settlement. Without limiting the rights to indemnification of any Indemnified Party described above in this Section 6.4, if the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of a Third Party Claim, it shall thereafter keep the Indemnified Party informed on a reasonably current basis of all material developments related thereto. If the Indemnifying Party, having elected to assume the defense of a Third Party Claim during the Assumption Period, thereafter does not diligently pursue the defense of such Third Party Claim (which failure shall only be deemed to occur if (X) the Indemnified Party delivers a written notice to the Indemnifying Party expressly asserting that the Indemnifying Party is not diligently pursuing the defense of such Third Party Claim and (Y) the Indemnified Party, within five (5) days after receipt of such notice, fails to deliver a written notice to the Indemnified Party containing the statement of the legal counsel retained to pursue such defense that the Indemnifying Party is diligent pursuing the defense of such Third Party Claim), the Indemnified Party, may, but shall not be obligated to, assume the defense of such Third Party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of a Third Party Claim or if the Indemnifying Party relinquished the defense of a Third Party Claim in accordance with the preceding sentence, the Indemnified Party shall be indemnified for the reasonable fees and expenses of its counsel (limited to one firm for all Indemnified Parties and, if applicable, one local counsel in each applicable jurisdiction for all Indemnified Parties) if such Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification with respect to such Third Party Claim pursuant to this Article VI. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, at its own cost and expense, to participate in the defense of any Other Claim or any Third Party Claim with respect to which it has relinquished the defense as provided above in this Section 6.4(a) with counsel selected by it, subject to the right of the Indemnified Party to control the defense thereof.

(c) During the Assumption Period referred to in Section 6.4(a), the Indemnified Party shall provide such information to the Indemnifying Party as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request in connection with its evaluation of whether a Third Party Claim is an indemnifiable claim under this Article VI.

(d) With respect to any Third Party Claim for which Parent or Purchaser, as applicable, has assumed the defense, the Indemnified Party shall, and shall cause each of its Affiliates to, reasonably cooperate with, make its relevant files and records reasonably available to, make its employees and representatives reasonably available to, and otherwise reasonably render assistance to, Parent or Purchaser, as applicable, with respect to the defense of such Third Party Claim.

(e) In the event that Parent, if Parent is the Indemnifying Party, or Purchaser, if Purchaser is the Indemnifying Party, has assumed the defense of a Third Party Claim pursuant to this Section 6.4 and proposes to settle or compromise such Third Party Claim, Parent or Purchaser, as applicable, shall provide notice to that effect (together with a statement in reasonable detail of the terms and conditions of such settlement or compromise) to the other, and shall not affect any such settlement or compromise without the prior written consent of the other, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. In the event that Parent, if Parent is the Indemnifying Party, or Purchaser, if Purchaser is the Indemnifying Party, has not assumed the defense of a Third Party Claim, and the Indemnified Party has assumed the defense of such Third Party Claim, pursuant to this Section 6.4, then the Indemnified Party shall not settle or compromise such Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of Parent, if Parent is the Indemnifying Party, or Purchaser, if Purchaser is the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.

SECTION 6.5. Limitation on Indemnification Obligations. (a) The rights of the Purchaser Indemnitees and Parent Indemnitees to indemnification pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.2 are subject to the following limitations:

(b) Purchaser Indemnitee Threshold. The Purchaser Indemnitees shall be entitled to indemnification under Section 6.2(a)(i) only if the aggregate amount of all Losses the Purchaser Indemnitees incur, suffer, sustain or become subject to arising out of, resulting from or relating to (i) any breach of or inaccuracy in any representation and warranty made by Parent in Article III exceeds Twenty Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000) (the “De Minimis Claim Amount”) (calculated inclusive of all breaches based upon the same facts, circumstances or conditions) and (ii) any and all breaches of or inaccuracies in the representations and warranties made by Parent in Article III exceeds Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000) (the “Threshold”); provided, however, that if the aggregate amount of all such Losses exceeds the Threshold, the Purchaser Indemnitees shall be entitled to indemnification for the full amount of all such Losses and not just the amount in excess of the Threshold (but subject to the De Minimius Claim Amount); and provided further, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the De Minimis Claim Amount and the Threshold shall not apply to the representations and warranties of Parent set forth in Section 3.20 or any of the Parent Fundamental Representations, and, accordingly, any claims for indemnification by a Purchaser Indemnitee in respect of the representations and warranties of Parent set forth in Section 3.20 or any Parent Fundamental Representation shall be indemnifiable hereunder from the first dollar of any applicable Losses.

(c) Parent Indemnitee Threshold. The Parent Indemnitees shall be entitled to indemnification under Section 6.2(b)(i) only if the aggregate amount of all Losses the Parent Indemnitees incur, suffer, sustain or become subject to arising out of, resulting from or relating to (i) any breach of or inaccuracy in any representation and warranty made by Purchaser in Article IV exceeds the De Minimis Claim Amount (calculated inclusive of all breaches based upon the same facts, circumstances or conditions) and (ii) any and all breaches of or inaccuracies in the representations and warranties made by Purchaser contained in Article IV exceeds the Threshold (but subject to the De Minimis Claim Amount); provided, however, that if the aggregate amount of all such Losses exceeds the Threshold, the Parent Indemnitees shall be entitled to indemnification for the full amount of all such Losses and not just the amount in excess of the Threshold; and provided further, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the

Threshold shall not apply to the Purchaser Fundamental Representations and, accordingly, any claims for indemnification by a Parent Indemnitee in respect of any Purchaser Fundamental Representation will be indemnifiable hereunder from the first dollar of any applicable Losses.

(d) Indemnity Cap for the Purchaser Indemnitees. The maximum aggregate amount of Losses for which indemnification is required to be made by Parent with respect to the matters referred to in Section 6.2(a)(i) is One Million Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($1,250,000) (the “Indemnity Cap”); provided, however, that the Indemnity Cap shall not apply to Losses suffered by the Purchaser Indemnitees as a result of inaccuracies in or breaches of the Parent Fundamental Representations, which shall be excluded in calculating when the Indemnity Cap is reached.

(e) Indemnity Cap for the Parent Indemnitees. The maximum aggregate amount of Losses for which indemnification is required to be made by Purchaser with respect to the matters referred to in Section 6.2(b)(i) is the Indemnity Cap; provided, however, the Indemnity Cap shall not apply to Losses suffered by the Parent Indemnitees as a result of inaccuracies in or breaches of the Purchaser Fundamental Representations, which shall be excluded in calculating when the Indemnity Cap is reached.

(f) Materiality Qualifications. For purposes of this Article VI, all materiality qualifications contained in the representations and warranties of Parent set forth in Article III (however they may be phrased and including the term “Material Adverse Effect”) shall be ignored and not given any effect for purposes of (i) determining whether a breach of, inaccuracy in or non-fulfillment of such representation and warranty (except Section 3.13) has occurred or (ii) determining the amount of Losses arising out of or relating to such breach.

(g) Relationship to Closing Payments. To the extent that any Losses that are otherwise indemnifiable pursuant to this Article VI have been specifically included in the final determination of the Net Working Capital Amount as of the opening of business on the Closing Date or Closing Indebtedness pursuant to Section 2.6, the Purchaser Indemnitees shall not be entitled to indemnification for such Losses pursuant to this Article VI. Conversely, to the extent any Losses have been incurred that have been applied against the Threshold or are subject to a claim for indemnification by the Purchaser Indemnitees pursuant to this Article VI, the effect of such Losses shall not be included in the determination of the Net Working Capital Amount or for purposes of any other adjustment pursuant to Section 2.6 with respect to Closing Indebtedness, as applicable.

(h) General Limitation on Indemnification. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the maximum aggregate amount of Losses for which indemnification is required to be made by each of (i) Parent, on the one hand, and (ii) Purchaser, on the other hand, shall be the Enterprise Amount. For the avoidance of doubt, the limitations set forth in Section 6.5(b), (c), (d) and (e) shall not apply to an indemnification claim brought under any provision of Section 6.2(a) other than Section 6.2(a)(i) or any provision of Section 6.2(b) other than Section 6.2(b)(i).

SECTION 6.6. Recourse Against Insurance. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article VI, no Indemnified Party shall be deemed to have incurred Losses (or a portion

thereof) to the extent that such Indemnified Party actually receives recovery under insurance coverage with respect to such Losses, provided that in no event shall any indemnification payment be delayed in anticipation of the receipt of any insurance proceeds. Purchaser agrees to, and to cause its Affiliates (including the Acquired Companies following the Closing) to: (a) in good faith, diligently seek recovery of all insurance proceeds from insurers with respect to all Losses with respect to which any Purchaser Indemnitee makes a claim for indemnification under this Article VI (it being agreed and acknowledged that any costs or expenses incurred by Purchaser or its Affiliates in seeking such recovery in good faith shall be indemnifiable Losses pursuant to this Article VI) and (b) keep Parent informed on a reasonably current basis and in reasonable detail of the status of all material matters related thereto. To the extent that the Indemnified Party is a Purchaser Indemnitee and such Purchaser Indemnitee or any of its Affiliates receives any amount under insurance coverage with respect to such amount in which a Purchaser Indemnitee has previously obtained payment in indemnification under this Article VI, Purchaser shall, as soon as reasonably practicable after the receipt of such insurance proceeds, pay and reimburse to Parent for any prior indemnification payment by them (up to the amount of the insurance proceeds, less any premium adjustments directly attributable thereto, costs or expenses reasonably and actually incurred in seeking collection of such insurance proceeds and any deductible incurred in obtaining such proceeds). To the extent that the Indemnified Party is a Parent Indemnitee and such Parent Indemnitee or any of its Affiliates receives any amount under insurance coverage with respect to a matter for which a Parent Indemnitee has previously obtained payment in indemnification under this Article VI, Parent shall, as soon as reasonably practicable after the receipt of such insurance proceeds, pay and reimburse to Purchaser for any prior indemnification payment by Purchaser (up to the amount of the insurance proceeds, less any premium adjustments directly attributable thereto, costs or expenses reasonably and actually incurred in seeking collection of such insurance proceeds and any deductible incurred in obtaining such proceeds).

SECTION 6.7. Mitigation of Damages; Calculation of Payments.

(a) Each Purchaser Indemnitee shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate the amount of any Losses for which a claim for indemnification is or can be made under this Article VI (other than with respect to insurance, which shall be governed solely by Section 6.6) and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article VI, Parent shall not be required to provide indemnification with respect to any Losses (or a portion thereof) to the extent such Losses result from the failure of any Purchaser Indemnitee to use such commercially reasonable efforts.

(b) If the payment or incurrence of any Losses with respect to which any claim is made under this Article VI gives rise to a Tax benefit actually realized by the Party making the claim (or any of its Affiliates), in cash (including an actual reduction of cash taxes payable), in the taxable year in which such Losses are paid or incurred (or the following taxable year) as the result of, and which would not have arisen but for, paying or incurring such Losses, , then either (x) if the indemnification payment has not yet been made by the Indemnifying Party, the amount of such payment shall be reduced by the amount of such Tax benefit or (y) if the indemnity payment has been made by the Indemnifying Party, Parent (if any of the Parent Indemnified Parties received such Tax benefit) or Purchaser (if any of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties received such Tax benefit), shall pay to the Indemnifying Party the amount of such Tax

benefit promptly after such filing the Tax return in which such Tax benefit is reflected; provided, that the amount of any Tax benefit shall not be taken into account under this Section 6.7(b) to the extent such Tax benefit relates to Losses for which indemnification has been limited under Section 6.5. No indemnification payment shall be delayed in anticipation of the receipt of the amount of any Tax benefit.

SECTION 6.8. Limitation of Certain Damages. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article VI or elsewhere in this Agreement, in no event shall any Purchaser Indemnitee or Parent Indemnitee be entitled to receive indemnification under this Article VI for exemplary or punitive damages; provided, however, that this limitation shall not apply if, and solely to the extent that, a Purchaser Indemnitee or Parent Indemnitee is seeking to obtain through indemnification reimbursement of Losses resulting from an award in a Third Party Claim against such Purchaser Indemnitee or Parent Indemnitee of exemplary or punitive damages.

SECTION 6.9. Exclusive Remedy. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, except with respect to fraud or willful misconduct and as set forth in Section 7.9 with respect to specific performance or injunctive relief for post-Closing covenants (each, a “Retained Remedy”): (i) from and after the Closing, neither Parent nor any of its Affiliates shall have any liability or obligation of any kind to Purchaser or any of the other Purchaser Indemnitees, other than the rights of the Purchaser Indemnitees to assert claims for indemnification against Parent pursuant to Section 6.2, subject to the limitations set forth in this Article VI, which (subject to the terms of this Section 6.9(a)) shall be the sole and exclusive remedies of the Purchaser Indemnitees for monetary damages in respect of the breach of or inaccuracy in any representations or warranties of Parent set forth in this Agreement, for non-fulfillment or breach of any covenants or agreements of Parent set forth in this Agreement, or otherwise with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, regardless of the legal theory under which such liability or obligation may be sought to be imposed, whether sounding in contract or tort, or whether at law or in equity; and (ii) Purchaser, on behalf of itself and all other Purchaser Indemnitees, hereby irrevocably waives any right to any other remedy, following the Closing, whether for any breach of or inaccuracy in any representations and warranties or any non-fulfillment or breach of any covenants and agreements of Parent contained in this Agreement or otherwise with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby; provided, however, that the foregoing waiver shall not apply to any Retained Remedy and it is acknowledged that transactions contemplated by the agreements attached hereto as exhibits shall be subject to the terms thereof on a stand-alone basis.

(b) Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, Section 6.9(a) shall not apply to any claim asserted by any Purchaser Indemnitee based upon fraud or intentional misrepresentation with respect to this Agreement.

SECTION 6.10. Manner of Payment. Any valid indemnification claims brought by any Purchaser Indemnitee shall be paid or reimbursed, as the case may be, subject to the indemnification caps described in Section 6.5, by Parent, by wire transfer of immediately available funds within five (5) Business Days after it is determined under this Article VI that such payment or reimbursement is due, which payment shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account as the Purchaser Indemnitee may designate

reasonably in advance of such the time such payment is required to be made. Any valid indemnification claims brought by any Parent Indemnitee shall be paid or reimbursed, as the case may be, subject to the indemnification caps described in Section 6.5, by Purchaser, by wire transfer of immediately available funds within five (5) Business Days after it is determined under this Article VI that such payment or reimbursement is due, which payment shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account as the Parent Indemnitee may designate reasonably in advance of such the time such payment is required to be made. If any payment or reimbursement required under this Article VI is not made in full within five (5) Business Days after it is determined under this Article VI that such payment or reimbursement is due, the unpaid payment or reimbursement will thereafter bear simple interest at a rate equal to the prime rate in effect from time to time (as published in The Wall Street Journal) plus two (2) percentage points, until paid in full.

SECTION 6.11. Tax Treatment of Indemnification Payments. Any indemnification payments or reimbursements made pursuant to this Article VI shall be treated for all Tax purposes: (a) if such payment or reimbursement is to the Purchaser Indemnitees, as a reduction to the Purchase Price; and (b) if such payment or reimbursement is to the Parent Indemnitees, as an increase to the Purchase Price.

ARTICLE VII

MISCELLANEOUS

SECTION 7.1. Disclosure Schedules. If a disclosure is made in one of or in any part of any of the Parent Disclosure Schedules, such disclosure will be deemed to have also been made in each other part of the Parent Disclosure Schedules to the extent it is reasonably apparent that such disclosure is applicable to such other parts of the Parent Disclosure Schedules. Neither the specification of any dollar amount nor the inclusion of any specific item in any of the Parent Disclosure Schedules is intended to imply that such amount, or higher or lower amounts, or the item so included, or other items, are or are not required to be disclosed, and Purchaser will not use the fact of the setting forth of any such amount or the inclusion of any such item in any Parent Disclosure Schedule in any dispute or controversy between the parties as to whether any obligation, item or matter not described or included in any Parent Disclosure Schedule is or is not required to be disclosed for purposes of this Agreement. Such disclosed information shall not be used as a basis for interpreting the term “material,” “materially,” “materiality,” “Material Adverse Effect” or any similar qualification in this Agreement.

SECTION 7.2. Amendment and Waiver. Any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived if, and only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and duly executed, in the case of an amendment, by Parent and Purchaser, or in the case of a waiver, by the Party against whom the waiver is to be effective. Any waiver of any term or condition shall not be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach or a subsequent waiver of the same term or condition, or a waiver of any other term or condition of this Agreement. No failure or delay by any Party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.

SECTION 7.3. Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights or obligations hereunder may be assigned or delegated by (x) by Purchaser without the prior written consent of Parent and (y) by Parent with the prior written consent of Purchaser, and any attempt to assign this Agreement without such consent shall be void and of no effect. Notwithstanding the provisions of the preceding sentence, Purchaser may, without the consent of the Parent, collaterally assign its rights hereunder to any Person extending credit to Purchaser or its Affiliates. No assignment shall release the assigning party of its obligations and liabilities under this Agreement to the extent such obligations and liabilities are not performed or satisfied by the assignee.

SECTION 7.4. Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including all Exhibits and Schedules referred to herein or delivered under this Agreement) and the documents and instruments and other agreements specifically referred to herein or delivered pursuant hereto constitute the entire agreement between the Parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, among the Parties. None of the Parties is relying upon any statement or representation of the other Parties except as expressly set forth herein and each Party is relying on its own judgment in connection with the execution of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

SECTION 7.5. Parties in Interest; No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon and enforceable by and against, the Parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns, whether or not so expressed. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person other than Purchaser, Parent, or their respective successors or permitted assigns, any legal or equitable rights, benefits or remedies of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement; provided, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Closing occurs, the Indemnified Employees are intended third-party beneficiaries of, and shall be entitled to the protections of, Section 5.1.

SECTION 7.6. Counterparts. This Agreement and any amendments hereto may be executed and delivered in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original by the Party executing such counterpart, but all of which shall be considered one and the same instrument. The execution and delivery of the signature page, including a signature page sent by facsimile transmission or by email in portable document format (“.pdf”), by any Party will constitute the execution and delivery of this Agreement by such Party.

SECTION 7.7. Section Headings. The article, section and paragraph headings and table of contents contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

SECTION 7.8. Notices.

Accordingly, each Party hereto agrees, on behalf of themselves and their respective Affiliates, that, in the event of any breach or threatened breach by Parent, on the one hand, or Purchaser, on the other hand, of any of their respective covenants or obligations set forth in this Agreement, Parent, on the one hand, and Purchaser, on the other hand, shall be entitled to specific performance of the terms hereof, including an injunction or injunctions to prevent or restrain breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with, the covenants and obligations of the other under this Agreement, in

SECTION 7.12. Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

SECTION 7.13. Severability. The provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed severable and the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of any provision shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions hereof.
