8.5. Governing Law. This Agreement shall in all respects be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws (excluding conflict of laws rules and principles) of the State of Delaware applicable to agreements made and to be performed entirely within such State, including all matters of construction, validity and performance.

8.6. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the Exhibits and Schedules hereto, the Seller Disclosure Schedule, the Ancillary Documents and the Confidentiality Agreement, constitute the entire agreement of the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior contracts or agreements, whether oral or written.

8.7. Severability. Should any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any Person or circumstance be held invalid or unenforceable to any extent: (a) such provision shall be ineffective to the extent, and only to the extent, of such unenforceability or prohibition and shall be enforced to the greatest extent permitted by Law, (b) such unenforceability or prohibition in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision as applied (i) to other Persons or circumstances or (ii) in any other jurisdiction, and (c) such unenforceability or prohibition shall not affect or invalidate any other provision of this Agreement.

Neither this Agreement nor any of the terms hereof may be terminated, amended, supplemented or modified orally, but only by an instrument in writing signed by Seller and Buyer; provided that the observance of any provision of this Agreement may be waived in writing by the party that will lose the benefit of such provision as a result of such waiver.

EXECUTION VERSION

8.9. Effect of Waiver or Consent. No waiver or consent, express or implied, by any party to or of any breach or default by any party in the performance by such party of its obligations hereunder shall be deemed or construed to be a consent or waiver to or of any other breach or default in the performance by such party of the same or any other obligations of such party hereunder. No single or partial exercise of any right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce any right or power, shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. Failure on the part of a party to complain of any act of any party or to declare any party in default, irrespective of how long such failure continues, shall not constitute a waiver by such party of its rights hereunder until the applicable statute of limitation period has run.

8.10. Parties in Purchased Interests; Limitation on Rights of Others. The terms of this Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, the parties hereto and their respective legal representatives, successors and permitted assigns. Nothing in this Agreement, whether express or implied, shall be construed to give any Person (other than the parties hereto and their respective legal representatives, successors and permitted assigns and as expressly provided herein) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any covenants, conditions or provisions contained herein, as a third party beneficiary or otherwise.

8.11. Assignability. No assignment of this Agreement or of any rights or obligations hereunder may be made by any party, directly or indirectly (by operation of Law or otherwise), without the prior written consent of the other party hereto and any attempted assignment without the required consents shall be void; provided, however, Buyer may freely assign its rights and obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of Seller to any of its Affiliates, it being acknowledged and agreed that such assignment will not relieve Buyer of any of its obligations hereunder; provided, further, that nothing in this Section 8.11 shall restrict the post-Closing integration contemplated by Section 2.6.

EXECUTION VERSION

8.12. Seller Disclosure Schedule. The Seller Disclosure Schedule is arranged in sections and paragraphs corresponding to the numbered and lettered sections and paragraphs of this Agreement. For the purposes of this Agreement, any matter that is disclosed in the Seller Disclosure Schedule in a manner that makes its relevance to one or more other sections of the Seller Disclosure Schedule readily apparent on its face shall be deemed to have been included in such other section of the Seller Disclosure Schedule notwithstanding the omission of a cross reference thereto. No reference to or disclosure of any item or other matter in the Seller Disclosure Schedule shall be construed as an admission or indication that such item or other matter is material (nor shall it establish a standard of materiality for any purpose whatsoever) or that such item or other matter is required to be referred to or disclosed in the Seller Disclosure Schedule. The disclosure of any matter or item in the Seller Disclosure Schedule hereto will not be deemed to constitute an acknowledgment that any such matter is required to be disclosed. The information set forth in the Seller Disclosure Schedule is disclosed solely for the purposes of this Agreement, and no information set forth 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 any Contract. The Seller Disclosure Schedule and the information and disclosures contained therein are intended only to qualify and limit the representations, warranties and covenants of Seller contained in this Agreement. Nothing in the Seller Disclosure Schedule is intended to broaden the scope of any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement or create any covenant. Matters reflected in the Seller Disclosure Schedule are not necessarily limited to matters required by the Agreement to be reflected in the Seller Disclosure Schedule. Such additional matters are set forth for informational purposes and do not necessarily include other matters of a similar nature.

8.13. Jurisdiction; Court Proceedings; Waiver of Jury Trial. Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.5, any Litigation against any party to this Agreement arising out of or in any way relating to this Agreement shall be brought to the Delaware Court of Chancery (or, if such court shall not have jurisdiction, any federal or state court located in the State of Delaware), and each of the parties hereby submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts for the purpose of any such Litigation; provided, that a final judgment in any such Litigation shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law. Each party irrevocably and unconditionally agrees not to assert (a) any objection which it may ever have to the laying of venue of any such Litigation in any federal or state court located in the State of Delaware, (b) any claim that any such Litigation brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum and (c) any claim that such court does not have jurisdiction with respect to such Litigation. To the extent that service of process by mail is permitted by applicable Law, each party irrevocably consents to the service of process in any such Litigation in such courts by the mailing of such process by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, at its address for notices provided for herein. Each party irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right to a trial by jury and agrees that any of them may file a copy of this paragraph with any court as written evidence of the knowing, voluntary and bargained-for agreement among the parties irrevocably to waive its right to trial by jury in any Litigation.

8.14. Reliance on Counsel and Other Advisors. Each party has consulted such legal, financial, technical or other expert as it deems necessary or desirable before entering into this Agreement. Each party represents and warrants that it has read, knows, understands and agrees with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

EXECUTION VERSION

8.15. Remedies. All remedies, either under this Agreement or by Law or otherwise afforded to the parties hereunder, shall be cumulative and not alternative, and any Person having any rights under any provision of this Agreement will be entitled to enforce such rights specifically, to recover damages by reason of any breach of this Agreement and to exercise all other rights granted by Law, equity or otherwise.

8.16. Specific Performance. The parties 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. Accordingly, the parties agree that, in addition to any other remedies, each party shall be entitled to enforce the terms of this Agreement by a decree of specific performance without the necessity of proving the inadequacy of money damages as a remedy. Each party hereby waives any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond or other security in connection with such remedy. Each party further agrees that the only permitted objection that it may raise in response to any action for equitable relief is that it contests the existence of a breach or threatened breach of this Agreement.

8.17. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts (including counterparts transmitted via facsimile or in .pdf or similar format) with the same effect as if all signatory parties had signed the same document. All counterparts shall be construed together and shall constitute one and the same instrument.

8.18. Further Assurance. If at any time, after the Closing, any further action is necessary or desirable to fully effect the Contemplated Transactions, each of the parties shall take such further action (including the execution and delivery of such further instruments and documents) as any other party reasonably may request. From and after the date hereof until the earlier of (i) the Closing and (ii) the date Buyer obtains the R&W Policy, Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide and cause its Affiliates to provide such cooperation in connection with the arrangement of the R&W Policy as may be reasonably requested by Buyer and which is customary in connection with Buyer’s efforts to obtain the R&W Policy.

EXECUTION VERSION

8.19. Legal Representation. Each of the parties to this Agreement acknowledges that Fried, Frank, Harris, Xxxxxxx & Xxxxxxxx LLP (“Xxxxx Xxxxx”) currently serves as counsel to both (a) the Company and its Subsidiaries and (b) the Xxxxxx Group, including in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Ancillary Documents and the consummation of the Contemplated Transactions. There may come a time, including after consummation of the Contemplated Transactions, when the interests of the Xxxxxx Group and the Company or its Subsidiaries may no longer be aligned or when, for any reason, the Xxxxxx Group, Xxxxx Xxxxx or the Company or its Subsidiaries believes that Xxxxx Xxxxx can’t or should no longer represent both the Xxxxxx Group and the Company or its Subsidiaries. The parties understand and specifically agree that Fried Xxxxx xxx withdraw from representing the Company and its Subsidiaries and continue to represent the Xxxxxx Group, even if the interests of the Xxxxxx Group, and the interests of the Company or its Subsidiaries are or may be adverse, including in connection with any dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement, any of the Ancillary Documents or the Contemplated Transactions, and even though Fried Xxxxx xxx have represented the Company and its Subsidiaries in a matter substantially related to such dispute, and Buyer and the Company hereby consent thereto and waive any conflict of interest arising therefrom. Each of the parties further agrees that, as to all communications among Xxxxx Xxxxx, the Company, its Subsidiaries and the Xxxxxx Group arising out of or relating to this Agreement, any of the Ancillary Documents or the Contemplated Transactions or otherwise, the attorney-client privilege, the expectation of client confidence and all other rights to any evidentiary privilege belong to the Xxxxxx Group and shall not pass to or be claimed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. In addition, if the Contemplated Transactions are consummated, the Company and its Subsidiaries shall have no right of access to or control over any of Fried Frank’s records related to the Contemplated Transaction, which shall become the property of (and be controlled by) the Xxxxxx Group. Furthermore, in the event of a dispute between the Xxxxxx Group and the Company or its Subsidiaries arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the Ancillary Documents or the Contemplated Transactions or any matter in which Xxxxx Xxxxx acted for them both, none of the attorney-client privilege, the expectation of client confidence or any other rights to any evidentiary privilege will protect from disclosure to the Xxxxxx Group any information or documents developed or shared during the course of Fried Frank’s joint representation of the Xxxxxx Group and the Company and its Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a dispute arises between Buyer and / or the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and a third Person (other than Seller or any of its Affiliates or any of their respective Representatives), on the other hand, Buyer and / or the Company or any of its Subsidiaries may access and use the information described herein to the extent it or they believe reasonably necessary to defend the dispute and may, in its or their sole discretion, assert any applicable privilege or protection on behalf of Seller to prevent the disclosure of such information to such third Person; provided, further, that nothing herein shall be deemed or construed as a waiver of any applicable privileges or protections that may be asserted with respect to the information as against any third Person.
