The Company is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing (where such concept is recognized) in each of the jurisdictions in which the nature of its business or the properties owned, leased or operated by it makes such qualification necessary, except where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect. The execution, delivery and performance by the Company of this Agreement and the consummation of the applicable transactions contemplated hereby have been duly and validly approved by the board of directors of the Company, and no additional organizational or shareholder authorization or consent on the part of the Company is required in connection with the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

(c) Certificate. The Company and the Selling Stockholders shall have received a certificate, signed by a duly authorized officer of Buyer and dated as of the Closing Date, to the effect that the conditions set forth in Section 7.3(a) and Section 7.3(b) have been satisfied.

Section 9.3 Amendment; Waiver. Subject to the last sentence of this Section 9.3 and except as otherwise provided in Section 9.13, any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived if, and only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and signed, in the case of an amendment, by the parties hereto, or in the case of a waiver, by the party against whom the waiver is to be effective. No failure or delay by any party hereto in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any waiver or single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein proved shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies herein, except to the extent otherwise provided herein. Schedule 1 may be amended by the Company and the Selling Stockholders from time to time prior to the Closing to reflect the addition of any Selling Stockholder and the number of Secondary Shares to be sold by such Selling Stockholder or any change to the number of Secondary Shares to be sold by any Seller Stockholder, it being understood that the aggregate amount of Secondary Shares to be sold under this Agreement shall not exceed $150 million divided by the IPO Price, rounded to the nearest whole number. In the case of an addition of a Selling Stockholder, such Selling Stockholder shall execute a joinder to this Agreement. Any such amendment to Schedule 1 or joinder of a Selling Stockholder shall be effective once notice of the same is delivered to Buyer.
Section 9.4 No Assignment or Benefit to Third Parties; Restrictions on Certain Transactions. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns. No party hereto may assign any of its rights or delegate any of its obligations under this Agreement by operation of Law or otherwise, without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any Person other than the parties hereto and their respective successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns, any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement. Any purported assignment in contravention of this Section 9.4 shall be null and void.
Section 9.5 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including all Exhibits hereto) together with the Stockholders Agreement contains the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, with respect to such matters, except that the Confidentiality Agreement shall remain in effect until the Closing without regard to the execution of this Agreement.
Section 9.6 Public Disclosure. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, except as may be required (a) to comply with the requirements of any applicable Law, (b) to comply with the requirements of any material Contracts of the Company or the Subsidiaries (including requirements under the Existing Credit Facilities), (c) to obtain consents and approvals, and to provide such notices, necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (d) in connection with the Selling Stockholders’, or any of their Affiliates’, respective fund raising, marketing, reporting or compliance activities, from and after the date hereof, and (e) to disclose the
30
existence of the material terms of this Agreement and the Stockholders Agreement in an amendment to the Company’s Form S-1 registration statement, no press release or similar public announcement or communication shall be made or caused to be made relating to this Agreement or any of the terms hereof, unless specifically approved in advance by the parties hereto. For the avoidance of doubt, the Confidentiality Agreement shall remain in effect until the Closing without regard to the execution of this Agreement.
Section 9.7 Schedules. The Company Disclosure Letter and all Exhibits or other documents expressly incorporated into this Agreement are hereby incorporated into this Agreement and are hereby made a part hereof as set out in full in this Agreement. Any item disclosed in the Company Disclosure Letter shall be deemed to have been disclosed with respect to the indicated section in this Agreement as well as every other section in this Agreement if the relevance of such disclosure to such other section is reasonably apparent. The inclusion of information in the Company Disclosure Letter shall not be construed as an admission that such information is material or adverse to any of the Company or the Subsidiaries. In addition, matters reflected in the Company Disclosure Letter are not necessarily limited to matters required by this Agreement to be reflected in the Company Disclosure Letter. Such additional matters are set forth for informational purposes only and do not necessarily include other matters of a similar nature. Neither the specification of any dollar amount in any representation, warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement nor the inclusion of any specific item or matter in the Company Disclosure Letter is intended to imply that such amount, or higher or lower amounts, or the item or matter so included or other items or matters, are or are not material or in the ordinary course of business (except where expressly stated in the relevant representation, warranty or covenant), nor shall such information be deemed to establish a standard of materiality or a basis for interpreting terms such as “material,” “materially,” “materiality,” “Company Material Adverse Effect,” or any similar qualification in the Agreement, and such information shall not be construed as an admission of liability or responsibility under any Law or in any dispute or controversy.
Section 9.8 Governing Law; Jurisdiction. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO APPLICABLE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW TO THE EXTENT THAT THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION WOULD BE REQUIRED THEREBY. Each party hereto irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of (a) any court of the State of New York located in New York County, New York and (b) the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, for the purposes of any proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each party irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of such proceeding may be heard in such state court or, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, in such federal court. Each
31
party agrees to commence any such proceeding either in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (and appellate courts thereof) or, if such proceeding may not be brought in such court for jurisdictional reasons, in any court of the State of New York located in New York County, New York (and appellate courts thereof). Each party further agrees that service of any process, summons, notice or document by U.S. registered mail to such party’s address set forth above shall be effective service of process for any action, suit or proceeding in New York with respect to any matters to which such party has submitted to jurisdiction in this Section 9.8. Each party irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection to the laying of venue of any action, suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, in any court referred to in the first sentence of this Section 9.8 and hereby further irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such action, suit or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.
Section 9.9 Waiver of Trial by Jury. EACH PARTY HEREBY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT TO ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. EACH PARTY (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS Section 9.9.
Section 9.10 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, and all of which shall constitute one and the same Agreement.
Section 9.11 Headings. The heading references herein and the table of contents hereof are for convenience purposes only, and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions hereof.
Section 9.12 Severability. The provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed severable and the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions hereof. If any provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof to any Person or any circumstance, is invalid or unenforceable, (a) the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to agree upon a suitable and equitable provision to be substituted therefor in order to carry out, so far as may be valid and enforceable, the intent and purpose of such invalid or unenforceable provision and (b) the remainder of this Agreement and the application of such provision to other Persons or circumstances shall not be affected by such invalidity or unenforceability, nor shall such invalidity or unenforceability affect the validity or enforceability of such provision, or the application thereof, in any other jurisdiction.
32
Section 9.13 Specific Performance. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that a violation of any of the terms of this Agreement will cause the other parties hereto irreparable injury for which adequate remedy at Law is not available. Accordingly, it is agreed that each of the parties hereto will be entitled to specific performance, injunction, restraining order or other equitable relief, without the posting of any bond, to prevent breaches of the provisions of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in any court of competent jurisdiction, in addition to any other remedy to which they may be entitled at Law or equity. Each of the parties hereto hereby waives, in any action for specific performance, the defense of adequacy of a remedy at law and the posting of any bond or other security in connection therewith.
Section 9.14 Certain Acknowledgment and Agreement by Buyer.
(a) Buyer acknowledges and agrees that it (i) has made its own inquiry and investigations into and, based thereon, has formed an independent judgment concerning the Company, the Subsidiaries and their respective businesses and assets, (ii) has been provided with adequate access to such information, documents and other materials relating to the Company, the Subsidiaries and their respective businesses and assets as it has deemed necessary to enable it to form such independent judgment, (iii) has had such time as it deems necessary and appropriate to fully and completely review and analyze such information, documents and other materials and (iv) has been provided an opportunity to ask questions of the Company with respect to such information, documents and other materials and has received satisfactory answers to such questions.

33
and (ii) it has not been induced by or relied upon any representation, warranty or other statement, express or implied, made by the Company or any of the Subsidiaries, or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, stockholders, agents or representatives or any other Person.
