The issued and outstanding common stock, no par value per share, of the Company outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (such shares, collectively, the “Company Common Stock”), shall thereupon be converted automatically into and shall thereafter represent the right to receive such number of shares of common stock of Parent having an aggregate value as of the Closing Date of Four Million Dollars (the “Merger Consideration”), with each individual share of common stock of Parent to have a value equal to the Volume-Weighted Average Stock Price for the twenty (20)

consecutive trading days prior to the Closing Date (which, for the avoidance of doubt, is an amount equal to $1.075 per share). At the Effective Time, the Company Common Stock shall be automatically cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist, and the Shareholder, as the holder of a certificate (or shares in book-entry form) which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented such Company Common Stock, shall cease to have any rights with respect to such shares other than the right to receive the Merger Consideration.

(b) Conversion of Merger Sub Common Stock. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, each share of common stock, no par value per share, of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and become one validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock, no par value per share, of the Surviving Corporation and such shares shall constitute the only outstanding shares of capital stock of the Surviving Corporation. From and after the Effective Time, all certificates representing the common stock of Merger Sub shall be deemed for all purposes to represent the number of shares of common stock of the Surviving Corporation into which they were converted in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence.

3.2 Payment Procedures.

(a) As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, Parent shall deliver the Merger Consideration to the Shareholder pursuant to Section 3.1, and the Sellers, on behalf of the Shareholder, shall deliver the certificates that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented the Company Common Stock (“Certificates”) or non-certificated shares of Company Common Stock represented by book-entry (“Book-Entry Shares”) in exchange for the Merger Consideration. Upon surrender of Certificates (or effective affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) or Book-Entry Shares to Parent, and such other documents as may customarily be required by Parent, the holder of such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares shall be entitled to receive the Merger Consideration in exchange therefor. No interest will be paid or accrued on any amount payable upon due surrender of Certificates (or effective affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) or Book-Entry Shares.

(b) The Surviving Corporation and Parent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable under this Agreement to any holder of the Company Common Stock, such amounts as are required to be withheld or deducted under the Code, or any provision of U.S. state or local or foreign Tax Law with respect to the making of such payment. To the extent that amounts are so withheld or deducted and paid over to the applicable Governmental Body, such withheld or deducted amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of the Company Common Stock, in respect of which such deduction and withholding were made. The recipient of any such payment shall provide any necessary Tax forms, including IRS Form W-9 and any other Tax form(s), as applicable, and any similar information. To the extent that any payment pursuant to this Agreement is not reduced by such deductions or withholdings, such recipient shall indemnify Parent and its Affiliates (including the Company) for any such amounts imposed by any Governmental Body (excluding any penalty or interest related to the failure to withhold) and Parent, at its option and its sole discretion, may (a) treat such amounts as an obligation due and payable, and to be reimbursed, by the Sellers within ten (10) Business Days after written

notice of such amount is provided to the Sellers, (b) treat the amount as a Loss of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties under Section 7.2, or (c) apply some combination of the two forgoing procedures.

ARTICLE VII

INDEMNIFICATION

7.1 Survival of Representations and Warranties. The representations and warranties of the parties contained in this Agreement shall survive the Closing through and including the eighteen (18) month anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Survival Period”); provided, however, the first sentence of 4.1 (Organization and Good Standing), 4.2 (Authorization of Agreement), 4.4 (Capitalization), and 4.22 (Financial Advisors) (collectively, the “Fundamental Representations”) shall continue in full force and effect indefinitely and the representation and warranties set forth in Sections 4.10 (Taxes) and 4.15 (Employee Benefit Plans) shall continue in full force and effect until thirty (30) days after the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations; and provided, further, that any obligations under Sections 7.2(a)(i) and 7.2(b)(i) shall not terminate with respect to any Losses as to which the Person to be indemnified shall have given notice (stating in reasonable detail, to the extent practicable, the basis of the claim for indemnification) to the indemnifying party in accordance with Section 7.3(a) or Section 8.3 before the termination of the applicable Survival Period. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no claim for indemnification in respect of any breach or alleged breach of a representation or warranty set forth in this Agreement may be made, and no

indemnification shall be owing in respect of any such claim made, after the end of the applicable Survival Period for such representation or warranty.

7.2 Indemnification.

(a) Subject to the limitations set forth in Sections 7.1 and 7.4, the Sellers, jointly and severally, hereby agree to indemnify and hold Purchaser, the Company, and their respective directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, stockholders, agents, attorneys, representatives, successors and permitted assigns (collectively, the “Purchaser Indemnified Parties”) harmless from and against, and pay to the applicable Purchaser Indemnified Parties the amount of, any and all losses, liabilities, claims, obligations, deficiencies, demands, judgments, interest, fines, penalties, suits, actions, causes of action, assessments, awards, costs and expenses (including costs of investigation and defense and reasonable attorneys’ and other professionals’ fees), whether or not involving a third party claim and damages to the extent the foregoing has, would or will give rise to a claim for damages under Law, but in all cases excluding exemplary or punitive damages except to the extent such damages are paid in relation to a Third Party Claim (individually, a “Loss” and, collectively, “Losses”):

(i) based upon, attributable to or resulting from the failure of any of the representations or warranties made by the Company in this Agreement to be true and correct as of the date hereof;

(ii) based upon, attributable to or resulting from the breach of any covenant or other agreement on the part of the Sellers or (prior to the Closing) the Company under this Agreement; or

(iii) for or attributable to any Taxes of the Company for all Pre-Closing Tax Periods (determined, with respect to the pre-Closing portion of any Straddle Period, by applying the provisions of Section 8.5).

(b) Subject to the limitations set forth in Sections 7.1 and 7.4, Parent hereby agrees to indemnify and hold the Sellers and their respective Affiliates, stockholders, agents, attorneys, representatives, successors and permitted assigns (collectively, the “Seller Indemnified Parties”) harmless from and against, and pay to the applicable Seller Indemnified Parties the amount of any and all Losses:

(i) based upon, attributable to or resulting from the failure of any of the representations or warranties made by Parent or Merger Sub in this Agreement to be true and correct in all respects as of the date hereof; and

(ii) based upon, attributable to or resulting from the breach of any covenant or other agreement on the part of Parent or Merger Sub under this Agreement.

(c) For purposes of determining the amount of any Losses incurred by a party seeking indemnification hereunder (but not for purposes of determining whether there has been a breach of any representation or warranty in this Agreement), each representation or warranty set forth herein shall be read without regard and without giving effect to any materiality or Material Adverse Effect standard or qualification.

(d) The right to indemnification or any other remedy based on representations, warranties, covenants and agreements in this Agreement shall not be affected by any investigation by or knowledge of the party seeking indemnification hereunder, whether conducted or obtained before or after the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the Closing Date, with respect to the accuracy or inaccuracy of, or compliance with, any such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement.

7.3 Indemnification Procedures.

(a) A claim for indemnification for any matter not involving a third party claim shall be asserted by notice to the party from whom indemnification is sought; provided, however, that failure to so notify the indemnifying party shall not preclude the indemnified party from any indemnification which it may claim in accordance with this Article VII except to the extent that the indemnifying party is actually prejudiced as a result of such failure. In the case of any claim for indemnification in respect of a breach of representation or warranty, such claim must be made within the applicable Survival Period for such representation or warranty. In the case of any claim for indemnification in respect of a breach of covenant, such claim must be made within the period of the statute of limitations following the date performance was due.

(b) In the event that any Legal Proceedings shall be instituted or any claim or demand shall be asserted by any third party in respect of which indemnification may be sought under Section 7.2 hereof other than Tax Claims, which shall be governed by Section 8.3 (a “Third Party Claim”), the indemnified party shall promptly cause written notice of the assertion of any Third Party Claim to be forwarded to the indemnifying party. The failure of the indemnified party to give reasonably prompt notice of any Third Party Claim shall not release, waive or otherwise affect the indemnifying party’s obligations with respect thereto except to the extent that the indemnifying party is actually prejudiced as a result of such failure. Subject to the provisions of this Section 7.3, the indemnifying party shall have the right, at its sole expense, to be represented by counsel of its choice, which must be reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. The indemnifying party shall have the right, at its sole expense, to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with any Third Party Claim which relates to any Losses indemnified against hereunder so long as the amount of indemnifiable Losses in respect of such Third Party Claim is not, in the reasonable judgment of Parent, reasonably likely to exceed the Cap when aggregated with all other Losses; provided, that the indemnifying party shall have acknowledged in writing to the indemnified party its obligation to indemnify the indemnified party as provided (and subject to any applicable limitations on indemnification) hereunder. If the indemnifying party elects to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with any such Third Party Claim, it shall within ten (10) Business Days of its receipt of the indemnified party’s written notice of the assertion of such Third Party Claim notify the indemnified party of its intent to do so; provided, that the indemnifying party must conduct the defense of the Third Party Claim actively and diligently thereafter in order to preserve its rights in this regard. If the indemnifying party elects not to (or is not eligible to) defend against, and (subject to the other limitations set forth in this Agreement) negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with any Third Party Claim which relates to any Losses indemnified against hereunder, fails to notify the indemnified party of its election as herein provided or contests its obligation to indemnify the indemnified party for such Losses under this Agreement, this shall not waive the indemnifying party’s right to dispute that it is obligated to indemnify the indemnified party

hereunder, and the indemnified party may defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with such Third Party Claim. If the indemnified party defends any Third Party Claim for which the indemnifying party is liable to indemnify it hereunder, then the indemnifying party shall reimburse the indemnified party (subject to any applicable limitations on indemnification hereunder) for the expenses of defending such Third Party Claim upon submission of periodic bills. If the indemnifying party shall assume the defense of any Third Party Claim, the indemnified party may participate in (but not control), at his or its own expense, the defense of such Third Party Claim; provided, however, that such indemnified party shall be entitled to participate in (but not control) any such defense with separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party if (i) so requested by the indemnifying party to participate or (ii) in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the indemnified party, a conflict or potential conflict of interests exists between the indemnified party and the indemnifying party that would make such separate representation advisable; and provided, further, that the indemnifying party shall not be required to pay for more than one such counsel for all indemnified parties in connection with any Third Party Claim. The parties hereto agree to provide reasonable access to the other to such documents and information as may be reasonably requested in connection with the defense, negotiation or settlement of any such Third Party Claim.

(c) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 7.3 to the contrary, upon assuming the defense of any Third Party Claim, the indemnifying party shall not, without the written consent of the indemnified party (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), settle or compromise any Third Party Claim or permit a default or consent to entry of any judgment unless such settlement or judgment (i) relates solely to monetary damages for which the indemnifying party shall be responsible and (ii) includes an unqualified release of the indemnified party from all liability in respect of the Third Party Claim. If the indemnifying party makes any payment on any Third Party Claim, the indemnifying party shall be subrogated, to the extent of such payment, to all rights and remedies of the indemnified party to any insurance benefits or other claims of the indemnified party with respect to such Third Party Claim (less any fees and expenses (including any increase in insurance premiums) incurred in obtaining such recovery); provided, that the indemnifying party shall take commercially reasonable efforts to prevent any disruption or interference with the indemnified party’s commercial relationships.

(d) After any final decision, judgment or award shall have been rendered by a Governmental Body of competent jurisdiction and the expiration of the time in which to appeal therefrom, or a settlement shall have been consummated, or the indemnified party and the indemnifying party shall have arrived at a mutually binding agreement, in each case with respect to an Third Party Claim hereunder, the indemnified party shall forward to the indemnifying party notice of any sums due and owing by the indemnifying party pursuant to this Agreement with respect to such matter and the indemnifying party shall pay all of such remaining sums so due and owing to the indemnified party in accordance with Section 7.5 by wire transfer of immediately available funds within five (5) Business Days after the date of such notice.

7.4 Limitations on Indemnification for Breaches of Representations and Warranties.

(a) An indemnifying party shall not have any liability under Sections 7.2(a)(i) or Section 7.2(b)(i) hereof until the aggregate amount of Losses incurred by the indemnified parties and indemnifiable thereunder based upon, attributable to or resulting from the failure of any of the representations or warranties to be true and correct exceeds Twenty-One Thousand Seven Hundred Fifty Dollars ($21,750) (the “Basket”) and, in such event, the indemnifying party shall be required to pay the amount in excess of the Basket (subject to the other limitations on indemnification set forth in this Agreement); provided, however, that the Basket shall not apply in the event of any failure of any of the Fundamental Representations to be true and correct or in the event of fraud.

(b) An indemnifying party shall not have any liability under Sections 7.2(a)(i) or Section 7.2(b)(i) hereof for an aggregate amount of Losses exceeding Four Hundred Thousand Dollars ($400,000) (the “Cap”); provided, however, that the Cap shall not apply in the event of any failure of any of the Fundamental Representations to be true and correct or in the event of fraud, but the aggregate amount of Losses for which an indemnifying party shall have liability in respect of any failure of the Fundamental Representations to be true and correct or in the event of fraud shall not exceed the amount of the Merger Consideration.

(c) Except in the event of fraud, the provisions of this Article VII and Section 8.3 are the sole and exclusive basis for the assertion of claims against, or the imposition of liability on, any party hereto or any officer or director of any party hereto or the Company in connection with the ownership or operation of the Company prior to the Closing, or this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, whether based on contract, tort, statute, regulation or otherwise. Each party irrevocably waives and relinquishes, and agrees not to assert or pursue, any claim not based on the provisions of this Article VII, Section 8.3 or Section 9.2.

7.5 Escrow; Indemnity Equity Shares.

(a) Intentionally Omitted.

(b) If any Purchaser Indemnified Party becomes entitled to indemnification under this Article VII, then Parent shall transfer from Sellers to the applicable Purchaser Indemnified Parties such number of Indemnity Equity Shares having a value equal to the Losses to which such Purchaser Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification. Within five (5) Business Days after the date that is eighteen (18) months following the Closing Date, Parent shall release to the Sellers, allocated between the Sellers in proportion to their Percentage Interests, any portion of the Indemnity Equity Shares that is not subject to then-pending claims made by any Purchaser Indemnified Party under this Article VII prior to such time. If any claim made by any Purchaser Indemnified Party is still pending as of such time, then Parent shall retain a portion of the Indemnity Equity Shares representing an amount equal to the amount of such Losses relating to such pending claims, which shares shall be retained by Parent in the names of Sellers until such claims have been satisfied or otherwise resolved, at which point, Parent shall (i) transfer to the applicable Purchaser Indemnified Parties such number of

Indemnity Equity Shares having a value equal to the Losses to which such Purchaser Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification in connection with resolution of such claims, and (ii) release to the Sellers any remaining portion of the Indemnity Equity Shares. Each Seller covenants and agrees that it will not distribute, grant or transfer any interest in the Indemnity Equity Shares to any other Person prior to the expiration of the Survival Period, and any such attempted transfer shall be void ab initio.

7.6 Claw Back of Equity. In the event that any Purchaser Indemnified Party is entitled to any payment pursuant to this Article VII that is not paid from the Indemnity Equity Shares nor, following demand therefor, by the Sellers, Purchaser shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to redeem such portion of the Parent shares then held by the Sellers or in the Sellers’ names having a value equal to the amount of Losses that have not been paid.

7.7 Characterization of Indemnity Payments. Any payments made to any Purchaser Indemnified Party or Seller Indemnified Party pursuant to this Article VII shall constitute an adjustment of the consideration paid for the Company Common Stock for Tax purposes and shall be treated as such by the parties on their Tax Returns to the extent permitted by applicable Law.

ARTICLE VIII

TAX MATTERS

8.1 Preparation and Filing of Tax Returns; Payment of Taxes.

(a) The Sellers shall prepare or cause to be prepared all Tax Returns of the Company for any taxable period that ends on or prior to the Closing Date that are due to be filed (taking into account extensions) after the Closing Date, and shall pay or cause to be paid all Taxes shown due thereon. Such Tax Returns shall be prepared in accordance with the past custom and practice of the Company in preparing its Tax Returns except as otherwise required by applicable Law. To the extent any such Tax Return is required to be filed by the Company, the Sellers shall deliver such Tax Return to the Company at least thirty (30) Business Days prior to the due date for filing such Tax Return (taking into account extensions), and the Company will thereupon timely file or cause to be timely filed such Tax Return. The Sellers shall provide a copy to Parent of, and permit Parent to review and comment on, each such Tax Return at least twenty (20) days in the case of income Tax Returns, and at least fifteen (15) days in the case of other types of Tax Returns, prior to filing, and Sellers shall incorporate any timely and reasonable comments requested by Parent to the extent such comments and the related Tax treatment (i) are in accordance with applicable Tax Law, (ii) could have any material effect on the amount of Taxes in any post-Closing period for which Parent or its Affiliates (including the Company after Closing) is liable, and (iii) will not materially increase the amount of Taxes for the Sellers for any Pre-Closing Tax Period or the portion of any Straddle Period prior to the Closing Date.

(b) Parent shall prepare or cause to be prepared and timely file or cause to be timely filed all Tax Returns of the Company for any Straddle Period that are due after the Closing Date, and shall pay or cause to be paid all Taxes shown due thereon. To the extent that

such Tax Returns relate to the portion of any Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date, such Tax Returns shall be prepared in accordance with the past custom and practice of the Company in preparing its Tax Returns except as otherwise required by applicable Law. Parent shall permit the Sellers to review and comment on the applicable portion of each such Tax Return relating to the Pre-Closing Tax Period at least ten (10) days prior to filing, and Parent shall incorporate any timely and reasonable comments requested by any Seller to the extent such comments and the related Tax treatment (i) are in accordance with applicable Tax Law, (ii) could have any material effect on the amount of Taxes in any Pre-Closing Tax Period for which the Sellers are liable, and (iii) will not materially increase the amount of Taxes for Parent or any of its Affiliates (including the Company after the Closing Date) for any Tax Period beginning after the Closing Date or the portion of any Straddle Period after the Closing Date.

8.2 Cooperation on Tax Matters. Parent, the Company and the Sellers shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other party, in connection with the filing of Tax Returns pursuant to this Agreement and any Legal Proceeding or other proceeding with respect to Taxes. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the other party’s request) the provision of records and information that are reasonably relevant to any such Legal Proceeding or other proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. Parent, the Company and the Sellers agree to retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to the Company relating to any Pre-Closing Tax Period until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations (and, to the extent notified by Parent, any extensions thereof), and to abide by all record retention agreements entered into with any Governmental Body and to give the other party reasonable written notice prior to transferring, destroying or discarding any such books and records, and if the other party so requests, Parent, the Company and the Sellers, as the case may be, shall allow the other party to take possession of such books and records at such other party’s expense.

8.3 Tax Claims. If, after the Closing, any of Purchaser or the Company receives notice of a claim by any Governmental Body that, if successful, would result in indemnification by the Sellers pursuant to Section 7.2(a)(i) as a result of a breach of any representation or warranty set forth in Section 4.10 (Taxes) or Section 7.2(a)(iii) (a “Tax Claim”), then after receipt of such notice, Parent or the Company, as the case may be, shall give reasonably prompt notice of such Tax Claim to the Sellers; provided, however, that the failure to give reasonably prompt notice of any Tax Claim shall not release, waive or otherwise affect the Sellers’ obligations with respect thereto except to the extent that the Sellers are actually prejudiced as a result of such failure. The Sellers shall have the right, at the expense of the Sellers, to control the conduct and resolution of any Tax Claim relating to a Pre-Closing Tax Period, but not to any Straddle Period if the Tax Claim could or will have any effect on any Taxes or Tax Return relating to a period after the Closing Date.

8.4 Transfer Taxes. All transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other substantially similar Taxes and fees incurred in connection with this Agreement (collectively, “Transfer Taxes”) shall be borne and paid by Parent, and Parent will file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to all such Transfer Taxes; provided, however, that this Section shall not apply to any income or franchise Taxes or similar state or local Taxes imposed on the Sellers or any of the Company Group by reason of the sale of

the Company Common Stock, which shall be borne and paid solely by the Sellers or their direct or indirect owners, as appropriate.

8.5 Convention for Allocating Taxes. To the extent permitted under applicable Law, the Company shall close its income Tax (or similar sort of Taxes) taxable year as of the close of business on the Closing Date; provided however, that if the Company is required to file a Tax Return for a Straddle Period, the portion of Taxes for a Straddle Period that relates to the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be calculated as though the taxable period of the Company terminated as of the close of the Closing Date; and provided, further, that in the case of a Tax not based on income, receipts, proceeds, profits or similar items (or items determined on an annual basis such as depreciation or amortization), the portion of the Tax (or item) for a Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be equal to the amount of Tax (or item) for the entire Straddle Period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the total number of days from the beginning of the Straddle Period through (and including) the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the total number of days in the Straddle Period.

8.6 Refunds. All refunds of Taxes (including any interest thereon) from a Tax authority in respect of the Company for any Pre-Closing Tax Period (or any such refund for a Pre-Closing Tax Period) that is credited against a Tax liability of Parent, the Company, or any of their respective Affiliates for any taxable period (or portion thereof) beginning after the Closing Date shall be held in trust by Parent for the benefit of the Sellers and paid by Parent to the Sellers within thirty (30) days after receipt of such refunds; provided, however, that to the extent such refunds of Taxes (including any interest thereon) exceed $200,000, Parent shall be permitted in its discretion to pay any additional amount of such refunds in the form of shares of Parent (instead of cash).

8.7 Negative Tax Covenant. Without the prior consent of Sellers, not to be unreasonably withheld, Parent shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, absent clear conflict with applicable Law or the existing reporting position or information, (i) amend, refile or otherwise modify any Tax Return, or make, change or revoke any Tax election, (ii) initiate discussions or examinations with any Governmental Body regarding Taxes of the Company for any Pre-Closing Tax Period, or (iii) make any voluntary disclosures with respect to Taxes of the Company for any Pre-Closing Tax Period.

8.8 Tax Matter Disputes. Any dispute in connection with the preparation and filing of Tax Returns pursuant to this Article VIII or any Tax Claim pursuant to Section 8.3 shall be resolved by an independent accounting firm mutually acceptable to the Sellers and Parent. Each of the Sellers and Parent shall submit to such independent accounting firm its own proposed calculation of such disputed items. The fees, costs and expenses of such independent accounting firm shall be borne equally by Parent on the one hand and the Sellers on the other. If any dispute with respect to a Tax Return is not resolved prior to the due date of such Tax Return, such Tax Return shall be filed in the manner that the party responsible for preparing such Tax Return deems correct, without prejudice to the rights of the other party.

ARTICLE IX

The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that a breach of this Agreement by any party would cause irreparable damage to the other party and that such other party will not have an adequate remedy at law. Therefore, the obligations of the parties under this Agreement shall be enforceable by a decree of specific performance issued by any court of competent jurisdiction, and appropriate injunctive relief may be applied for and granted in connection therewith. Such remedies shall, however, be cumulative and not exclusive and shall be in addition to any other remedies which any party may have under this Agreement or otherwise.

No action taken pursuant to this Agreement, including any investigation by or on behalf of any party, shall be deemed to constitute a waiver by the party taking such action of compliance with any provision of this Agreement. The waiver by any party hereto of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a further or continuing waiver of such breach or as a waiver of any other or subsequent breach. No failure on the part of any party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of such right, power or remedy by such party preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy hereunder.

9.6 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal, or incapable of being enforced by any Law or public policy, all other terms or provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party.
