Except as set forth in the disclosure schedules delivered by MediSync to Parent and Merger Sub on the date hereof (the “MediSync Disclosure Schedules”) (which MediSync Disclosure Schedules are incorporated herein by reference and shall contain specific references to the representations and warranties to which the disclosures contained therein relate and an item on such MediSync Disclosure Schedules shall be deemed to qualify only the particular subsection or subsections of this Section 4 specified for such item; provided, however, that the disclosure of any item under a subsection of this Section 4 in the MediSync Disclosure Schedules shall be deemed disclosure with respect to other subsections of this Section 4 if the applicability of such item to any other subsection is readily apparent from the face of the MediSync Disclosure Schedules), MediSync represents and warrants to Parent and Merger Sub as set forth below. For purposes of this Section 4, any reference to “MediSync” shall include, in addition to MediSync, the MediSync Subsidiaries, unless the context specifically provides otherwise.

MediSync is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the conduct of its business or the ownership of its properties and assets requires such qualification, except where the failure to be so qualified, authorized or in good standing would not reasonably be expected to have a MediSync MAE.
4.2. Subsidiaries. Except as set forth in Section 4.2 of the MediSync Disclosure Schedules, neither MediSync nor any MediSync Subsidiary owns or holds the right to acquire any stock, equity interest, partnership interest or joint venture interest or other equity ownership interest in any other Person.

This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by MediSync and assuming that this Agreement is a valid and binding obligation of Parent and Merger Sub, this Agreement constitutes a valid and binding obligation of MediSync, enforceable against MediSync in accordance with its terms (subject to the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance or other laws not or hereafter in effect relating to creditors’ rights generally and general principles of equity).
4.4. No Violation. Except as set forth in Section 4.4 of the MediSync Disclosure Schedules, the execution, delivery and performance by MediSync of this Agreement and each other MediSync Document does not, and will not, (1) conflict with or violate the Certificate of Incorporation or By-laws, each as amended to date, or other equivalent organizational documents of MediSync, (2) conflict with or violate any Legal Requirement or Order, in each case, applicable to MediSync, or by which it or any of its assets is bound or affected, or (3) result in any breach or violation of, or constitute a default (or an event that with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or impair MediSync’s rights or alter the rights or obligations of any third party under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, or result in the creation of a Lien on any of the properties or assets of MediSync pursuant to, any MediSync Material Contract, except in the case of subsection (3) hereof, where such conflict, violation, breach or default would not reasonably be expected to have a MediSync MAE.

Tax Liabilities for the period ending on the date hereof have been adequately disclosed and fully provided for in MediSync’s books and records and in the MediSync Financial Statements.

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.
