This Agreement (and the Schedules and Exhibits hereto, including the Purchaser Transaction Documents) are intended by the parties as the final expression of their agreement and intended to be a complete and exclusive statement of the agreement and understanding of the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter contained herein. There are no restrictions, promises, warranties or undertakings, other than those set forth or referred to herein or in the other Purchaser Transaction Documents with respect to the Notes or Warrant. This Agreement and the other Purchaser Transaction Documents supersede all prior agreements and understandings between the parties with respect to such subject matter hereof and thereof. No term, covenant, agreement or condition of this Agreement or any of the other Purchaser Transaction Documents may be amended, or compliance therewith waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively), except (i) at the election of the Purchaser to cure any ambiguity, formal defect or omission or correct or supplement any provision contained herein that may be inconsistent with any other provision contained herein; and (ii) as agreed to in writing by the Purchaser and the Company. As an inducement for Purchaser to enter into this Agreement and the other Purchaser Transaction Documents, the Company agrees to fully cooperate with Purchaser in executing any documents or agreements that Purchaser, in its reasonable discretion, deems necessary to correct any clerical or other errors or omissions which may exist in any of the Purchaser Transaction Documents in order to correct any such clerical error or other error or omission.

(c) Sections and Counterparts. The section headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect the interpretation of this Agreement. This Agreement and any amendments hereto may be executed and delivered in two or more counterparts, and by the different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when executed shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute the same agreement, and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party hereto and delivered to the other parties hereto, it being understood that all parties need not sign the same counterpart. In the event that any signature to this Agreement or any amendment hereto is delivered by facsimile transmission or by e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such facsimile or “.pdf” signature page were an original thereof. No party hereto shall raise the use of a facsimile machine or e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file to deliver a signature to this Agreement or any amendment hereto or the fact that such signature was transmitted or communicated through the use of a facsimile machine or e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file as a defense to the formation or enforceability of a contract, and each party hereto forever waives any such defense.

(d) Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. This Agreement shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of New York without regard to the principles thereof regarding conflicts of law. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in the New York City, Borough of Manhattan, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, or by deposit with a nationally recognized overnight delivery service, to such party at the address for such notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law. EACH OF THE PARTIES KNOWINGLY, INTENTIONALLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING TO ENFORCE OR DEFEND ANY RIGHT, OBLIGATION, DEFENSE OR REMEDY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE NOTES.

(e) Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective heirs, successors, assigns, executors, administrators and personal representatives; provided that the Company may not assign this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Purchaser. The Purchaser may assign some or all of its rights under this Agreement without the consent of the Company; provided, however, that any such assignment shall not release the Purchaser from its obligations hereunder unless such obligations are assumed by such assignee (as evidenced in writing).

(f) Remedies. No remedy conferred by any of the specific provisions of this Agreement is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy, and each and every remedy shall be cumulative of and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise. The election of any one or more remedies by the Purchaser or the Company shall not constitute a waiver of the right to pursue other available remedies. Each of the Company and the Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that any breach of this Agreement by the other party will result in irreparable and continuing damage to the non-breaching parties for which there will be no adequate remedy at law. The parties hereto further acknowledge and agree, accordingly, that the Company, on the one hand, and the Purchaser, on the other hand, shall be entitled to injunctive relief, specific performance and other equitable relief for such breach, or any threatened breach, and that resort by the non-breaching parties to any such equitable relief shall not be deemed to waive or to limit in any respect any right or remedy which the non-breaching party may have with respect to such breach or threatened breach.

(g) No Recourse to General Partner or Manager of the Purchaser. The Company agrees that, with respect to any breach or claimed breach of this Agreement or any other Purchaser Transaction Document by the Purchaser, the Company shall have recourse only to the assets of the Purchaser, and that neither the general partner, nor manager, or any Affiliate thereof, of the Purchaser shall have any liability with respect thereto.

(h) Expenses. The Company will, promptly on demand, pay the Purchaser’s reasonable, actual and documented expenses, including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel and other professionals, incident to (i) any material waiver, amendment, or modification of the terms of this Agreement or the other Purchaser Transaction Documents, or of the Notes or any refinancing thereof, or any subordination agreement related to any Indebtedness of the Company, each as agreed upon by the Company, and (ii) the collection of any sums due, or enforcement of any of the provisions, under this Agreement or the other Purchaser Transaction Documents, including all efforts made to enforce payment of any of the obligations hereunder or under the Notes, and/or any institution, maintenance, preservation, enforcement, foreclosure, release, termination, amendment or modification of any mortgage, Lien or other security interest of Purchaser in any of the Collateral, whether through judicial proceedings or otherwise. This covenant shall survive the satisfaction in full of the Company’s obligations under the Notes and the termination of this Agreement.

(i) Further Assurances. Each party hereto shall from time to time do and perform, or cause to be done and performed, all such further acts and things, and shall execute and deliver such additional instruments, documents, conveyances or assurances, and shall take such other actions as shall be necessary, or otherwise reasonably requested by the other party, to confirm and assure the rights and obligations provided for in, and otherwise carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of, this Agreement and the other Purchaser Transaction Documents and render effective the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby.

(j) Interpretive Matters. Unless the context otherwise requires, (i) all references to Sections, Schedules, Appendices or Exhibits are to Sections, Schedules, Appendices or Exhibits contained in or attached to this Agreement, (ii) each accounting term not otherwise defined in this Agreement has the meaning assigned to it in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, (iii) words in the singular or plural include the singular and plural and pronouns stated in either the masculine, the feminine or neuter gender shall include the masculine, feminine and neuter, (iv) the words “hereof,” “herein” and words of similar effect shall reference this Agreement in its entirety, and (v) the use of the word “including” in this Agreement shall be by way of example rather than limitation.

(k) Brokers and Finders. Purchaser may incur obligations or commitments on behalf of the Company to any Person which would be reasonably likely to give rise to a claim for any finder’s, broker’s or other similar commission or compensation in respect of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Ancillary Documents (“Finder Fees”), provided such Finder Fees are not in violation of any laws or governmental rules or regulations and do not exceed five percent (5%) of the cash proceeds received by the Company from the Company’s issuance of Tranche B Note and any Additional Notes.
