Prior to the Closing Date, the Sellers agree to consult with the Purchaser with respect to the Estimated Purchase Price, and the Sellers will consider in good faith and in their sole discretion any of the Purchaser’s good faith comments to the Estimated Purchase Price.

(b) As promptly as practicable after the Closing, but in no event later than sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, the Purchaser shall prepare and deliver to the Sellers a statement (the “Closing Statement”) setting forth the Purchaser’s calculation of the Purchase Price, including each of the components thereof.

(c) The Closing Statement shall (i) be prepared, and Closing Working Capital shall be determined, in accordance with (A) the accounting methods, policies, practices, procedures, conventions, categorizations, definitions, principles, judgments, assumptions, techniques or estimation methods with respect to financial statements, their classification or presentation or otherwise (including with respect to the nature of accounts, level of reserves or level of accruals) that are set forth on the Working Capital Schedule, (B) to the extent not inconsistent with the foregoing clause (A), the accounting methods, policies, practices, procedures, conventions, categorizations, definitions, principles, judgments, assumptions, techniques or estimation methods with respect to financial statements, their classification or presentation or otherwise (including with respect to the nature of accounts, level of reserves or level of accruals) adopted in connection with the latest balance sheet included in the Audited Financial Statements, and (C) to the extent not inconsistent with the foregoing clauses (A) or (B), GAAP and, (ii) not include any changes in assets or liabilities as a result of purchase accounting adjustments or other changes arising from or resulting as a consequence of the transactions contemplated hereby.

(d) The post-Closing purchase price adjustment as set forth in this Section 3.03 is not intended to permit the introduction of different accounting methods, policies, practices, procedures, conventions, categorizations, definitions, principles, judgments, assumptions, techniques or estimation methods with respect to financial statements, their classification or presentation or otherwise (including with respect to the nature of accounts, level of reserves or level of accruals) for the Working Capital Schedule.

(e) The Purchaser and its Subsidiaries (including the Company and its Subsidiaries) shall (i) permit the Sellers and their respective representatives to have reasonable access to the books, records and other documents (including work papers, schedules, financial statements, memoranda, etc.) pertaining to or used in connection with the preparation of the Closing Statement and the Purchaser’s calculation of the Purchase Price and provide the Sellers with copies thereof (as reasonably requested by the Sellers) and (ii) provide the Sellers and their respective representatives reasonable access to the Purchaser’s (including the Company’s) employees and advisors (including making certain relevant officer(s) and accountants available to respond to reasonable written or oral inquiries of the Sellers or their respective representatives). If a Seller disagrees with any part of the Purchaser’s calculation of the Purchase Price as set forth on the Closing Statement, such Seller shall, within sixty (60) days after the Sellers’ receipt of the Closing Statement, notify the Purchaser in writing of such disagreement by setting forth the Sellers’ calculation of the Purchase Price, including each of the components thereof, and describing in reasonable detail the basis for such disagreement (an “Objection Notice”). If an Objection

Notice is delivered to the Purchaser, then the Purchaser and the Sellers shall negotiate in good faith to resolve their disagreements with respect to the computation of the Purchase Price. In the event that the Purchaser and the Sellers are unable to resolve all such disagreements within thirty (30) days after the Purchaser’s receipt of such Objection Notice, the Purchaser and the Sellers shall submit such remaining disagreements to KPMG (provided that any individual or individuals at KPMG assigned to resolve such disagreements shall have no past or ongoing relationship in any capacity with the Purchaser, its Affiliates or Subsidiaries, or the Sun Consultant and its controlled Affiliates), or a nationally-recognized accounting firm as is acceptable to the Purchaser and the Sellers (the “Valuation Firm”).

(f) The Valuation Firm shall make a final and binding determination with respect to the computation of the Purchase Price, including each of the components thereof, to the extent such amounts are in dispute, in accordance with the guidelines and procedures set forth in this Agreement and on Exhibit C. The Purchaser and the Sellers shall cooperate with the Valuation Firm during the term of its engagement and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Valuation Firm to resolve all remaining disagreements with respect to the computation of the Purchase Price, including each of the components thereof, as soon as practicable. The Valuation Firm shall consider only those items and amounts in the Purchaser’s and the Sellers’ respective calculations of the Purchase Price, including each of the components thereof, that are identified as being items and amounts to which the Purchaser and the Sellers have been unable to agree. In resolving any disputed item, the Valuation Firm may not assign a value to any item greater than the greatest value for such item claimed by either party or less than the smallest value for such item claimed by either party. The Valuation Firm’s determination of the Purchase Price, including each of the components thereof, shall be based solely on written materials submitted by the Purchaser and the Sellers (i.e., not on independent review) and on the definitions included herein. The determination of the Valuation Firm shall be conclusive and binding upon the parties hereto and shall not be subject to appeal or further review, absent manifest error.

(g) The costs and expenses of the Valuation Firm in determining the Purchase Price, including each of the components thereof, shall be borne by the Purchaser, on the one hand, and the Sellers, on the other hand, based upon the percentage which the portion of the contested amount not awarded to each party bears to the amount actually contested by such party. For example, if the Purchaser claims the Purchase Price are one thousand dollars ($1,000) less than the amount determined by the Sellers, and the Sellers contest only five hundred dollars ($500) of the amount claimed by the Purchaser, and if the Valuation Firm ultimately resolves the dispute by awarding the Purchaser three hundred dollars ($300) of the five hundred dollars ($500) contested, then the costs and expenses of the Valuation Firm will be allocated sixty percent (60%) (i.e., 300 ÷ 500) to the Sellers, in the aggregate, and forty percent (40%) (i.e., 200 ÷ 500) to the Purchaser. Prior to the Valuation Firm’s determination of Purchase Price, (i) the Purchaser, on the one hand, and the Sellers, on the other hand, shall each pay fifty percent (50%) of any retainer paid to the Valuation Firm and (ii) during the engagement of the Valuation Firm, the Valuation Firm will xxxx fifty percent (50%) of the total charges to each of the Purchaser, on the one hand, and the Sellers, on the other hand. In connection with the Valuation Firm’s determination of Purchase Price, the Valuation Firm shall also determine, pursuant to the terms of the first and second sentences of this Section 3.03(g), and taking into account all fees and expenses already paid by each of Purchaser, on the one hand, and the Sellers, on the other hand, as of the date of such determination, the allocation of its fees and expenses between the Purchaser and the Sellers, which such determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the parties hereto.

(h) Within five (5) Business Days after the Purchase Price, including each of the components thereof, is finally determined pursuant to this Section 3.03:

(i) if the Purchase Price as finally determined pursuant to this Section 3.03 are less than the Estimated Purchase Price, then the Purchaser and the Sellers shall cause

the Escrow Agent to: (A) pay to the Purchaser from the Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Funds an amount (which in no case shall exceed the amount of the Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Funds) (the “Purchaser Adjustment Amount”) equal to such deficiency, and (B) pay to the Sellers each Seller’s Allocation Percentage of the amount (if any) by which the amount of the Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Funds is greater than the Purchaser Adjustment Amount; and

(ii) if the Purchase Price as finally determined pursuant to this Section 3.03 are greater than the Estimated Purchase Price (the amount of such deficiency, the “Seller Adjustment Amount”), then (A) the Purchaser shall pay to the Sellers the Seller Adjustment Amount, and (B) the Purchaser and the Sellers shall cause the Escrow Agent to pay to the each Seller such Seller’s Allocation Percentage of the Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Funds.

All payments to be made pursuant to this Section 3.03(h) shall (x) be treated by all parties for tax purposes as adjustments to the Purchase Price and (y) be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account(s) designated by the Purchaser or the Sellers, as applicable. The payments described in Section 3.03(h)(i) shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Purchaser for any and all claims arising under this Agreement with respect to this Section 3.03.

Additionally, at least three (3) Business Days prior to obtaining the Waived Benefits, and prior to seeking the 280G Approval, the Company shall provide drafts of such waivers and such equityholder approval materials to the Purchaser for its review and approval, and shall, in its sole discretion, incorporate any reasonable comments made by the Purchaser therein. In no event shall the Sellers be deemed in breach of this Section 8.04 if any such Person refuses to waive any such rights or if the equityholders fail to approve any Waived Benefits.

(d) Prior to the Closing, the Company shall deliver to the Purchaser evidence that a vote of the Company’s stockholders who are entitled to vote was solicited in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.04 and that either (1) the requisite number of stockholder votes was obtained with respect to the Waived Benefits (the “280G Approval”), or (2) that the 280G Approval was not obtained and, as a consequence, the Waived Benefits shall not be made or provided.

TERMINATION

10.01 Termination. This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing Date as follows and in no other manner:

(a) by mutual written consent of the Purchaser, on the one hand, and each of the Sellers, on the other hand;

(b) upon the issuance by any Governmental Body of an order, decree or ruling or their taking of any other action restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the transactions contemplated hereby, which order, decree, ruling or any other action shall have become final and non-appealable;

(c) by the Purchaser, on the one hand, or by the Sellers, on the other hand, if the Closing shall not have occurred on or before the date that is 180 calendar days after the date of this Agreement (the “Termination Date”); provided that no termination may be made under this Section 10.01(c) if the failure to close shall have been caused by the action or inaction of the terminating party; provided, further, if the Closing has not occurred by the Termination Date solely because the applicable waiting period has not expired or been terminated or any required governmental approvals have not been obtained under the HSR Act or any Other Antitrust Regulations, including Competition Act Approval, and if all other conditions to Closing set forth in Article IV shall have been satisfied (other than those conditions to be satisfied by action taken at the Closing), then the Termination Date may be extended for up to an additional 90 days by either of the Purchaser or the Sellers, after providing written notice to the other party;

(d) by the Purchaser, upon a breach of any covenant or agreement on the part of the Sellers set forth in this Agreement, or if any representation or warranty contained in Article V or Article VI shall be or have become untrue, in either case, such that any of the conditions set forth in Section 4.01(a) or 4.01(b) would not be satisfied; provided, however, that, if such breach is curable by the Sellers within thirty days of notice of such breach through the exercise of commercially reasonable efforts and for so long as the Sellers, or cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to, continue to exercise such

commercially reasonable efforts, the Purchaser may not terminate this Agreement under this Section 10.01(d); or

(e) by the Sellers, upon a breach of any covenant or agreement on the part of the Purchaser set forth in this Agreement, or if any representation or warranty of the Purchaser shall be or have become untrue, in either case, such that any of the condition set forth in Section 4.02(a) or 4.02(a) would not be satisfied; provided, however, that, if such breach is curable by the Purchaser within thirty days of notice of such breach through the exercise of commercially reasonable efforts and for so long as the Purchaser continues to exercise such reasonable commercially efforts, the Sellers may not terminate this Agreement under this Section 10.01(e).

For purposes of clarification, the parties hereto agree that if the Purchaser does not close the transactions contemplated hereby in circumstances in which all of the closing conditions set forth in Article IV have been satisfied or waived by the Sellers (other than conditions to be performed by the Purchaser at the Closing), such failure or refusal to close shall be deemed to be a willful breach of this Agreement by the Purchaser.

13.04 Assignment. This Agreement and all of the provisions hereof shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns, except that neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder may be assigned or delegated by either the Purchaser or the Sellers without the prior written consent of the other party; provided, that the Purchaser may assign its rights under this Agreement to (i) one or more of its Affiliates without the consent of the Sellers as long as Purchaser remains bound by all of its obligations under this Agreement or (ii) its lenders as collateral security for their obligations under any of their secured debt financing arrangements.

13.05 Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable Law, but if any provision of this Agreement is

held to be prohibited by or invalid under applicable Law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

13.06 Construction. The language used in this Agreement shall be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties hereto to express their mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction shall be applied against any Person. The headings of the sections and paragraphs of this Agreement have been inserted for convenience of reference only and shall in no way restrict or otherwise modify any of the terms or provisions hereof. In the event a subject matter is addressed in more than one (1) representation and warranty in Article V or Article VI, the Purchaser shall be entitled to rely only on the most specific representation and warranty addressing such matter. The specification of any dollar amount or the inclusion of any item in the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement, the Disclosure Schedules or exhibits is not intended to imply that the amounts, or higher or lower amounts, or the items so included, or other items, are or are not material or threatened, and no party shall use the fact of the setting of the amounts or the fact of the inclusion of any item in this Agreement, the Disclosure Schedules, or exhibits in any dispute or controversy between the parties hereto as to whether any obligation, item or matter not set forth or included in this Agreement, the Disclosure Schedules, or exhibits is or is not material or threatened for purposes of this Agreement. In addition, matters reflected in the Disclosure Schedules are not necessarily limited to matters required by this Agreement to be reflected in the Disclosure Schedules. Such additional matters are set forth for informational purposes only and do not necessarily include other matters of a similar nature. The information contained in this Agreement, in the Disclosure Schedules, and exhibits hereto is disclosed solely for purposes of this Agreement, and no information contained herein or therein shall be deemed to be an admission by any party hereto to any third-party of any matter whatsoever (including any violation of Law or breach of contract).

13.07 Amendment and Waiver. Except as provided herein, any provision of this Agreement or the Disclosure Schedules or exhibits hereto may be amended or waived only in a writing signed by the Purchaser and the Sellers. No waiver of any provision hereunder or any breach or default thereof shall extend to or affect in any way any other provision or prior or subsequent breach or default.

13.08 Complete Agreement. This Agreement and the other agreements, instruments, and documents contemplated hereby or executed in connection herewith (including the Confidentiality Agreement) contain the complete agreement between the parties hereto and supersede any prior understandings, agreements or representations by or between the parties hereto, written or oral, which may have related to the subject matter hereof in any way.

13.09 Third-Party Beneficiaries. Section 9.02 shall be enforceable by each of the current and former officers, directors, managers or similar functionaries of the Company and its Subsidiaries and his or her heirs and representatives. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, nothing expressed or referred to in this Agreement will be construed to give any Person other than the parties to this Agreement, and, for purposes of Section 9.02, each of the current and former officers, directors, managers or similar functionaries of the Company and its Subsidiaries and his or her heirs and representatives, any legal or equitable right, remedy, or claim under or with respect to this Agreement or any provision of this Agreement.

13.10 Counterparts. This Agreement and any signed agreement or instrument entered into in connection with this Agreement, and any amendments hereto or thereto, may be executed in one (1) or more counterparts, all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument. Any such counterpart, to the extent delivered by means of a facsimile machine or by .pdf, .tif, .gif, .jpeg or similar attachment to electronic mail (any such delivery, an “Electronic Delivery”) shall be treated in all manner and respects as

an original executed counterpart and shall be considered to have the same binding legal effect as if it were the original signed version thereof delivered in person. At the request of any party hereto, each other party hereto or thereto shall re execute the original form of this Agreement and deliver such form to all other parties hereto. No party hereto shall raise the use of Electronic Delivery to deliver a signature or the fact that any signature or agreement or instrument was transmitted or communicated through the use of Electronic Delivery as a defense to the formation of a contract, and each such party forever waives any such defense, except to the extent such defense relates to lack of authenticity.

13.11 Governing Law; Jurisdiction. All issues and questions concerning the construction, validity, interpretation and enforceability of this Agreement and the exhibits and schedules hereto, and all claims and disputes arising hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, whether purporting to sound in contract or tort, or at law or in equity, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any choice of Law or conflict of Law rules or provisions (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the Laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware. The parties hereto hereby agree and consent to be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or, to the extent such court declines jurisdiction, first to any federal court, or second, to any state court, each located in Wilmington, Delaware, and hereby waive the right to assert the lack of personal or subject matter jurisdiction or improper venue in connection with any such suit, action or other proceeding. In furtherance of the foregoing, each of the parties hereto (a) waives the defense of inconvenient forum, (b) agrees not to commence any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of this Agreement or any transactions contemplated hereby other than in any such court, and (c) agrees that a final judgment in any such suit, action or other proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit or judgment or in any other manner provided by Law. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LITIGATION, ACTION, PROCEEDING, CROSS-CLAIM, OR COUNTERCLAIM IN ANY COURT (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF, RELATING TO OR IN CONNECTION WITH (i) THIS AGREEMENT OR THE VALIDITY, PERFORMANCE, INTERPRETATION, COLLECTION OR ENFORCEMENT HEREOF OR (ii) THE ACTIONS OF SUCH PARTY IN THE NEGOTIATION, AUTHORIZATION, EXECUTION, DELIVERY, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT HEREOF.

13.12 Legal Representation. Following consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, Xxxxxx, Xxxxx & Bockius LLP and XxXxxxxx LLP may serve as counsel to each and any of the Sellers, the holder of the Non-Voting MRPS Shares, and their respective Non-Recourse Parties, in connection with any litigation, claim or obligation arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement notwithstanding such representation or any continued representation of any other Person (including Sun Capital Partners, Inc. and their respective Affiliates), and each of the parties (on behalf of itself and each of its Non-Recourse Parties) hereto consents thereto and waives any conflict of interest arising therefrom. The decision to represent any of the Sellers, the holder of the Non-Voting MRPS Shares, and their respective Non-Recourse Parties shall be solely that of Xxxxxx, Xxxxx & Bockius LLP and XxXxxxxx LLP. Any privilege attaching as a result of Xxxxxx, Xxxxx & Bockius LLP or XxXxxxxx LLP representing the Company and its Subsidiaries in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall survive the Closing and shall remain in effect; provided, that such privilege from and after the Closing shall be shared by the Sellers and the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and no such shared privilege may be waived by (a) Sellers without the prior written consent of the Purchaser or the Company or (b) the Purchaser or the Company without the prior written consent of the Sellers; provided, however, that in any action or claim arising in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, such privilege shall be controlled by Sellers. In furtherance of the foregoing, each of the parties hereto agrees to take the steps necessary to ensure that any privilege attaching as a result of Xxxxxx, Xxxxx & Bockius LLP or XxXxxxxx LLP representing the Company and

its Subsidiaries in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall survive the Closing, remain in effect and be shared by the Sellers, the Company and its Subsidiaries. As to any privileged attorney client communications between Xxxxxx, Xxxxx & Bockius LLP and/or XxXxxxxx LLP and the Company or any of its Subsidiaries prior to the Closing Date (collectively, the “Privileged Communications”), the parties hereto, together with any of their respective Affiliates, successors or assigns, agree that no such party may use or rely on any of the Privileged Communications in any action or claim against or involving any of the parties hereto or any of their respective Non-Recourse Parties after the Closing. The Sellers further agrees that, on behalf of the Company and its Subsidiaries, Xxxxxx, Xxxxx & Bockius LLP and/or XxXxxxxx LLP retention by the Company or any of its respective Subsidiaries shall be deemed completed and terminated without any further action by any Person effective as of the Closing.

13.13 Consents. The Purchaser agrees and acknowledges that the Sellers shall have no liability whatsoever to the Purchaser (or, after the Closing, the Company) (and the Purchaser, or after the Closing, the Company, shall not be entitled to assert any claims) arising out of or relating to the failure to obtain any consents listed on the Authorization Schedule or that are not required to be listed on the Authorization Schedule that may have been or may be required in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or because of the default, acceleration or termination of any such contract, lease, license or other agreement as a result thereof. The Purchaser further agrees that no covenant of the Sellers or the Company contained herein shall be breached or deemed breached and no condition of the Purchaser shall be deemed not to be satisfied as a result of the failure to obtain any consent listed on the Authorization Schedule or that are not required to be listed on the Authorization Schedule or as a result of any such default, acceleration or termination or any lawsuit, action, claim, proceeding or investigation commenced or threatened by or on behalf of any Person arising out of or relating to the failure to obtain any consent listed on the Authorization Schedule or that are not required to be listed on the Authorization Schedule or any such default, acceleration or termination; provided that nothing in this Section 13.13 is intended to prejudice or supersede any obligations or requirements of the parties set forth in this Agreement.

13.14 No Survival; Sources of Recovery.

(a) The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements in this Agreement shall terminate at the Closing or upon the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article X, except the covenants and agreements that explicitly contemplate performance after the Closing shall survive the Closing indefinitely (or until fully performed in accordance with this Agreement). The parties acknowledge and agree that from and after the Closing they shall not be permitted to make, and no party shall have any Liability or obligation with respect to, any claims for any breach of any representation or warranty set forth herein or any covenant or agreement herein that is to have been performed by another party on or prior to the Closing. In furtherance of the foregoing, from and after the Closing, each party hereby waives (on behalf of itself, each of its Affiliates and each of its representatives), to the fullest extent permitted under Law, any and all rights, claims and causes of action (including any statutory rights to contribution or indemnification) for any breach of any representation or warranty or covenant or obligation to have been performed prior to the Closing set forth herein or otherwise relating to the Sellers, Company, any of their respective Subsidiaries or the subject matter of this Agreement that such party may have against the other parties or any of their Affiliates or any of their respective representatives arising under or based upon any theory whatsoever, under any Law, contract, tort or otherwise.

(b) The Purchaser hereby agrees and acknowledges that its right to any payment to be made pursuant to Section 3.03(h)(i) (together with the Purchaser’s rights under the Escrow Agreement with respect to the Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Amount) shall be the Purchaser’s sole and exclusive source of recovery for any amounts owing to the Purchaser pursuant to Section 3.03(h)(i).

(c) The Purchaser hereby acknowledges and agrees that, except as expressly provided in the foregoing Sections 13.14(a) and 13.14(b), none of the Company, the Sellers, and each of their respective Affiliates, officers, managers, employees or agents, shall have any liability, responsibility or obligation arising under this Agreement or any exhibit or Schedule hereto, or any ancillary agreement, certificate or other document entered into, made, delivered, or made available in connection herewith, or as a result of any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, such Sections 13.14(a) and 13.14(b) being the sole and exclusive remedy for all claims, disputes and losses arising hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, whether purporting to sound in contract or tort, or at law or in equity, or otherwise.

(d) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement or otherwise, the parties to this Agreement agree on their own behalf and on behalf of their respective Subsidiaries and Affiliates that no Non-Recourse Party of a party to this Agreement shall have any Liability relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated herein except to the extent agreed to in writing by such Non-Recourse Party.

13.15 Deliveries to the Purchaser. The Purchaser agrees and acknowledges that all documents or other items delivered in writing (including by electronic mail) to the Purchaser or its representatives in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or uploaded and made available in the online “data room” established by Intralinks for “Project Cover” on or before the date that is one (1) Business Day prior to the date hereof shall be deemed to have been delivered, provided or made available to the Purchaser or its representatives for all purposes hereunder.

13.16 Conflict Between Transaction Documents. The parties hereto agree and acknowledge that to the extent any terms and provisions of this Agreement are in any way inconsistent with or in conflict with any term, condition or provision of any other agreement, document or instrument contemplated hereby, this Agreement shall govern and control.

13.17 Specific Performance. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached, and that money damages or legal remedies would not be an adequate remedy for any such damages. Therefore, it is accordingly agreed that each party shall be entitled to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, or to enforce compliance with, the covenants and obligations of any other party, in any court of competent jurisdiction, and appropriate injunctive relief shall be granted in connection therewith. Any party seeking an injunction, a decree or order of specific performance shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection therewith and any such remedy shall be in addition and not in substitution for any other remedy to which such party is entitled at law or in equity.

13.18 Relationship of the Parties. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to constitute the parties hereto as joint venturers, alter egos, partners or participants in an unincorporated business or other separate entity, nor in any manner create any principal-agent, fiduciary or other special relationship between the parties hereto. No party shall have any duties (including fiduciary duties) towards any other party hereto except as specifically set forth herein.

13.19 Prevailing Party. Other than with respect to disputes arising pursuant to Section 3.03, in any dispute arising out of or related to this Agreement, any of the exhibits or schedules hereto, or any agreement, document, instrument or certificate contemplated hereby, or any transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, the applicable adjudicating body shall award to the prevailing party, if any, the costs and attorneys’ fees reasonably incurred by the prevailing party in connection with the dispute and the enforcement of its rights under this Agreement, any of the exhibits or schedules hereto, or any agreement,

document, instrument or certificate contemplated hereby and, if the adjudicating body determines a party to be the prevailing party under circumstances where the prevailing party won on some but not all of the claims and counterclaims, the adjudicating body may award the prevailing party an appropriate percentage of the costs and attorneys’ fees reasonably incurred by the prevailing party in connection with the adjudication and the enforcement of its rights under this Agreement, any of the exhibits or schedules hereto, or any agreement, document, instrument or certificate contemplated hereby or thereby.
