12.8
Waivers. The failure of a party hereto at any time or times to require performance of any provision hereof shall in no manner affect the right of such party at a later time to enforce the same. No waiver by a party of any condition or of any breach of any term, covenant, representation or warranty contained in this Agreement shall be effective unless in writing, and no waiver in any one or more instances shall be deemed to be a further or continuing waiver of any such condition or breach in other instances or a waiver of any other condition or breach of any other term, covenant, representation or warranty.
12.9
Interpretation. The headings preceding the text of Articles and Sections included in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not be deemed part of this Agreement or be given any effect in interpreting this Agreement. The use of the masculine, feminine or neuter gender herein shall not limit any provision of this Agreement. The use of the terms “including” or “include” shall in all cases herein mean “including, without limitation” or “include, without limitation,” respectively.
12.10
Applicable Law. This Agreement and the rights and duties of the parties hereto shall be construed and determined in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware (without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provisions).

Forum for Disputes. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally (a) consents and submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of any state court located in the State of Delaware (the “Delaware Courts”), including the Delaware Court of Chancery in and for New Castle County, for any actions, suits or proceedings arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (and agrees not to commence any litigation relating thereto except in such courts), (b) waives any objection to the laying of venue of any such litigation in the Delaware Courts and agrees not to plead or claim in any Delaware Court that such litigation brought therein has been brought in any inconvenient forum and (c) acknowledges and agrees that any controversy that 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 or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The parties acknowledge and agree that any action arising out of, or related to, this Agreement, the breach or threatened breach of the Agreement, or to enforce its terms shall not be subject to removal to federal court for any reason and each irrevocably waives any such right. Any party who removes or attempts to remove any action to federal court notwithstanding this Section, shall pay the other his, her, or its reasonable attorneys fees and costs incurred in obtaining a remand of the action to the Delaware Court of Chancery or other state courts of the State of Delaware.
12.12
Attorneys’ Fees. If any legal action or any arbitration or other proceeding is brought for the enforcement of this Agreement, or because of an alleged dispute, breach, default, or misrepresentation in connection with any of the provisions of this Agreement, the successful or prevailing party or parties will be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs incurred in that action or proceeding, in addition to any other relief to which it or they may be entitled.
20
12.13
Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that no assignment of any rights or obligations shall be made by any party without the prior written consent of all the other parties hereto.
12.14
No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is solely for the benefit of the parties hereto and, to the extent provided herein, their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and representatives, and no provision of this Agreement shall be deemed to confer upon other third parties any remedy, claim, liability, reimbursement, cause of action or other right.

Upon the reasonable request of the parties hereto, the other parties hereto shall, on and after the Closing Date, execute and deliver such other documents, releases, assignments and other instruments as may be required to effectuate completely the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
12.16
Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality or enforceability of the other provisions hereof shall remain in full force and shall not be affected thereby, and there shall be deemed substituted for such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision a valid, legal and enforceable provision as similar as possible to the provision at issue.
12.17
Remedies Cumulative. The remedies provided in this Agreement shall be cumulative and shall not preclude the assertion or exercise of any other rights or remedies available by law, in equity or otherwise.
12.18
Entire Understanding. This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto and supersedes all prior agreements, letters of intent, arrangements and understandings between the parties, including, but not limited to the letter of intent dated November 18, 2013, between the Parties.

3.
Representations of the Undersigned. The undersigned represents and warrants to the Company as set forth below.
a.
Restricted Securities. The undersigned understands that the Shares have not been registered pursuant to the Securities Act, or any state securities act, and thus are “restricted securities” as
2
defined in Rule 144 promulgated by the SEC. Therefore, under current interpretations and applicable rules, he, she, or it will be required to retain the Shares for a period of at least six months from the date of closing of the Acquisition Agreement and at the expiration of such period his, her, or its sales may be confined to brokerage transactions of limited amounts requiring certain notification filings with the SEC and such disposition may be available only if the Company is current in its filings with the SEC under the Exchange Act, or other public disclosure requirements. Accordingly, the undersigned hereby acknowledges that he, she, or it is prepared to hold the Shares for an indefinite period.
b.
Investment Purpose. The undersigned acknowledges that the Shares are being purchased for his, her, or its own account, for investment, and not with the present view towards the distribution, assignment, or resale to others or fractionalization in whole or in part. The undersigned further acknowledges that no other person has or will have a direct or indirect beneficial or pecuniary interest in the Shares.
c.
Limitations on Resale; Restrictive Legend. The undersigned acknowledges that he, she, or it will not sell, assign, hypothecate, or otherwise transfer any rights to, or any interest in, the Shares except (i) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, or (ii) in any other transaction which, in the opinion of counsel acceptable to the Company, is exempt from registration under the Securities Act, or the rules and regulations of the SEC thereunder.

d.
Information. The undersigned has been furnished (i) with all requested materials relating to the business, finances, and operations of the Company; (ii) with information deemed material to making an informed investment decision; and (iii) with additional requested information necessary to verify the accuracy of any documents furnished to the undersigned by the Company. The undersigned, or the duly authorized representative of the undersigned, has been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of the Company and its management and to receive answers concerning the terms and conditions of the transaction.

3
published in any newspaper, magazine, or similar media or broadcast on television or radio, or presented at any seminar or meeting.
