(d) The Stockholder shall reasonably cooperate with and assist (including providing information) the Company and Parent in connection with (i) preparing and filing as promptly as practicable with any Governmental Authority all Filings to be filed by the Company or any of its Affiliates or Parent or any of its Affiliates in connection with the Transaction and (ii) obtaining any Consent in connection with the Transactions.
(e) In the event any Proceeding by any Governmental Authority or other Third Party is commenced which questions the validity or legality of, or otherwise challenges, the Transactions, or seeks damages in connection therewith, the parties hereto shall reasonably cooperate and use reasonable best efforts to defend against such Proceeding, and, if an injunction or other Order is issued in any such Proceeding, use reasonable best efforts to have such injunction or other Order lifted or extinguished, and to cooperate reasonably regarding any other impediment to the consummation of the Transactions; provided, that, unless the Stockholder elects to do so, nothing in this Agreement shall require the Stockholder to commence any litigation against, or defend any litigation commenced by, any Governmental Authority.
(f) Without limiting the foregoing and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the confidentiality agreement between Parent and the Stockholder, dated as of January 18, 2019, (i) the Stockholder hereby authorizes Parent to publish and disclose in any announcement or disclosure relating to the Transactions, including in the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus, the Stockholder’s identity and ownership of the Covered Stockholder Shares and the nature of the Stockholder’s obligations under this Agreement and (ii) Parent hereby authorizes the Stockholder and its Affiliates to publish and disclose the nature of the Stockholder’s obligations under this Agreement in filings with the SEC and Canadian securities regulators, including pursuant to Schedule 13D; provided in each case that the disclosing party shall permit the other party to review in advance any proposed announcement or disclosure and incorporate consider the other party’s (and any of its outside counsel’s) reasonable comments thereto.

When a reference is made in this Agreement to Articles, Sections, Exhibits or Schedules, such reference shall be to an Article or Section of or Exhibit or Schedule to this Agreement unless otherwise indicated.

Section 5.08 Governing Law; Consent To Jurisdiction; Waiver Of Jury Trial.
(a) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the conflicts of law rules of such state. Each of the parties hereto (i) irrevocably consents to the service of the summons and complaint and any other process in any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement, on behalf of itself or its property,
16
in accordance with Section 5.04 or in such other manner as may be permitted by Applicable Law, and nothing in this Section 5.08(a) shall affect the right of any party to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by Applicable Law, (ii) irrevocably and unconditionally consents and submits itself and its property in any action or proceeding to the exclusive general jurisdiction of the Delaware Court of Chancery and any state appellate court therefrom within the State of Delaware (or, only if the Delaware Court of Chancery declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, any federal court within the State of Delaware), in the event any dispute arises out of this Agreement, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof, (iii) agrees that it shall not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such court, (iv) agrees that any actions or proceedings arising in connection with this Agreement shall be brought, tried and determined only in the Delaware Court of Chancery (or, only if the Delaware Court of Chancery declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, any federal court within the State of Delaware), (v) waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such action or proceeding in any such court or that such action or proceeding was brought in an inconvenient court and agrees not to plead or claim the same and (vi) agrees that it shall not bring any action relating to this Agreement or the Transactions in any court other than the aforesaid courts. Each of Parent and the Stockholder agrees that a final judgment in any action or proceeding in such court as provided above shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Applicable Law.
(b) EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE EACH SUCH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE MERGER OR THE OTHER TRANSACTIONS. EACH PARTY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (i) 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, (ii) EACH PARTY UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER, (iii) EACH PARTY MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY AND (iv) EACH PARTY HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 5.08(b).
Section 5.09. Amendment; Waiver.
(a) Any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived if, but only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed, in the case of an amendment, by each party to this Agreement or, in the case of a waiver, by the party against whom the waiver is to be effective.
(b) No failure or delay by any party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or
17
privilege. The rights and remedies provided in this Agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by Applicable Law.
Section 5.10. Remedies. The parties acknowledge and agree that irreparable harm would occur and that the parties would not have any adequate remedy at law (i) for any breach of the provisions of this Agreement or (ii) in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms. It is accordingly agreed that, except to the extent this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Section 5.01, the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement, without proof of actual damages, and each party further agrees to waive any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with such remedy. The parties further agree that (x) by seeking the remedies provided for in this Section 5.10, a party shall not in any respect waive its right to seek any other form of relief that may be available to a party under this Agreement, including monetary damages and (y) nothing contained in this Section 5.10 shall require any party to institute any proceeding for (or limit any party’s right to institute any proceeding for) specific performance under this Section 5.10 before pursuing damages nor shall the commencement of any action pursuant to this Section 5.10 or anything contained in this Section 5.10 restrict or limit any party’s right to terminate this Agreement in accordance with the terms of Section 5.01 or pursue any other remedies under this Agreement that may be available then or thereafter.
Section 5.11. Severability. Whenever possible, each provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under Applicable Law, but if any provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon such a determination, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.
Section 5.12. Successors And Assigns; Third Party Beneficiaries. Other than to a transferee pursuant to a Permitted Transfer (which, for the avoidance of doubt, will not relieve the Stockholder of its obligations hereunder), neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations contained herein shall be assigned by a party hereto (whether by operation of law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other party. Any purported assignment in contravention hereof shall be null and void. Subject to the preceding sentences, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. This Agreement (including the documents and instruments referred to herein) is not intended to, and does not, confer upon any person other than the parties hereto any rights or remedies hereunder, including the right to rely upon the representations and warranties set forth herein.
Section 5.13. Expenses. All costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement shall be paid by the party incurring such cost or expense.
