The Standby Purchaser shall have twenty (20) days from the receipt of such notice (the “Offer Period”) to notify the Company in writing that it intends to exercise its Gross Up Right and as to the amount of Equity Securities the Standby Purchaser intends to purchase, up to the maximum calculated in accordance with Section 10(a) hereof (the “Designated Securities”); provided, however, that if providing the Standby Purchaser twenty (20) days’ notice to respond is not practicable, the Company may provide an earlier deadline for the Standby Purchaser to respond to such notice by giving the Standby Purchaser the maximum number of days to respond as is practicable but in any event no fewer than ten (10) days’ notice. Such notice from the Standby Purchaser shall constitute a non‑binding indication of interest of the Standby Purchaser to purchase the amount of Designated Securities specified by the Standby Purchaser (or a proportionately lesser amount if the amount of Equity Securities to be offered if such offering of Equity Securities is subsequently reduced) at the price (or range of prices) and other terms set forth in the Company’s notice to it. The failure to respond during the Offer Period constitutes a waiver of its Gross Up Right in respect of such offering. The Standby Purchaser shall execute a binding agreement to purchase any such Equity Securities within thirty (30) days after expiration of the Offer Period, and any Equity Securities that the Standby Purchaser indicated it would purchase but that are not covered by a binding purchase agreement at such time may be sold to other Persons, unless the failure to execute such an agreement is attributable to actions of the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company, in which case the Company or such Subsidiary shall have the right to sell the Equity Securities to other Persons if the Standby Purchaser shall not have executed such an agreement within the later of (i) five (5) Business Days after the reason for such delay has been resolved or (ii) thirty (30) days after expiration of the Offer Period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Company nor such Subsidiary shall be required to offer or sell such Equity Securities to the Standby Purchaser if it would cause the Company or such Subsidiary to be in violation of applicable federal securities or insurance regulatory laws by virtue of such offer or sale.

(c) The Company or such Subsidiary shall have 90 days after expiration of the Offer Period to sell any Equity Securities in respect of which the Standby Purchaser’s Gross

Execution Copy

Up Rights were not exercised, at a price and upon general terms and conditions not materially more favorable to the purchasers thereof than specified in the Company’s notice to the Standby Purchaser pursuant to Section 10(b) hereof. If the Company or such Subsidiary has not sold such Equity Securities within such 90‑day period, neither the Company nor such Subsidiary shall thereafter issue or sell any Equity Securities without first offering such Equity Securities to the Standby Purchaser in the manner provided above.

(d) The Gross Up Rights provided by this Section 10 shall not apply to, and shall terminate upon the earlier of (a) the first date upon which the Standby Purchaser no longer beneficially owns shares of the Common Stock representing more than twenty percent (20%) of the issued and outstanding shares of the Common Stock immediately prior to an issuance contemplated under Section 10(a) hereof, or (b) the date of any breach by the Standby Purchaser of any material obligation under this Agreement that remains uncured after thirty (30) days’ notice thereof.

(e) The provisions in this Section 10 shall not apply to any issuance of Equity Securities by the Company (i) to employees, consultants, officers or directors of the Company or any of its subsidiaries for the primary purpose of soliciting or retaining their employment or services or in a transaction or pursuant to management or employee agreements, incentive programs or stock purchase or equity compensation plans approved by the Board (including any such programs or plans in existence on the date hereof), (ii) to a third party as consideration in connection with (but not in connection with raising capital to fund) (A) a strategic business combination or other merger, acquisition or disposition transaction, partnership, joint venture, strategic alliance or investment by the Company or similar non‑capital raising transaction approved by the Board, or (B) an investment by the Company or its subsidiaries approved by the Board in any party which is not prior to such transaction an Affiliate of the Company (whether by merger, consolidation, sale or exchange of stock, sale of assets or securities, or otherwise), (iii) as part of any offering registered under the Securities Act; provided, that the Standby Purchaser shall not be precluded by the Company, its underwriter(s) or its agent(s) in connection with such offering from purchasing in such offering, and the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause its underwriter(s) or agent(s) engaged in connection with such offering to allocate shares, on the same terms and conditions offered to the public, a sufficient number of Designated Securities, so as to maintain the Standby Purchaser’s pro rata share of all Equity Securities, (iv) upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of options, warrants or similar rights or other convertible securities, (v) the issuance of Equity Securities by a Subsidiary of the Company to the Company or one of its direct or indirect Subsidiaries and (vi) in connection with any stock split, stock dividend paid on a proportionate basis to all holders of the affected class of capital stock or recapitalization approved by the Board.

Section 11. Drag Along Rights.

(a) If a Stockholder who holds no less than 51% of the outstanding Common Stock of the Company (a “Dragging Stockholder”), receives a bona fide offer from a non‑affiliated Third Party Purchaser to consummate, in one transaction, or a series of related transactions, a Change of Control (a “Drag‑along Sale”), the Dragging Stockholder shall have the right to require that each other Stockholder (each, a “Drag‑along Stockholder”) participate in such

Execution Copy

Transfer in the manner set forth in this Section 11, provided, however, that no Drag‑along Stockholder shall be required to participate in the Drag‑along Sale if the consideration for the Drag‑along Sale is other than cash or registered securities listed on an established U.S. securities exchange or traded on the NASDAQ Stock Market. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, each Drag‑along Stockholder shall vote in favor of the transaction and take all actions to waive any dissenters, appraisal or other similar rights.

(b) The Dragging Stockholder shall exercise its rights pursuant to this Section 11 by delivering a written notice (the “Drag‑along Notice”) to the Company and each Drag‑along Stockholder no later than 20 Business Days prior to execution of an agreement to effect a Drag‑along Sale. The Drag‑along Notice shall make reference to the Dragging Stockholder’s rights and obligations hereunder and shall describe in reasonable detail:

(i) the number of shares of Common Stock to be sold by the Dragging Stockholder, if the Drag‑along Sale is structured as a Transfer of Common Stock;

(ii) the identity of the Third Party Purchaser;

(iii) the proposed date, time and location of the closing of the Drag‑along Sale;

(iv) the per share purchase price and the other material terms and conditions of the Transfer, including a description of any non‑cash consideration in sufficient detail to permit the valuation thereof; and

(v) a copy of any form of agreement proposed to be executed in connection therewith.

(c) If the Drag‑along Sale is structured as a Transfer of Common Stock, then, subject to Section 11(d), the Dragging Stockholder and each Drag‑along Stockholder shall Transfer the number of shares equal to the product of (x) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock the Third Party Purchaser proposes to buy as stated in the Drag‑along Notice and (y) a fraction (A) the numerator of which is equal to the number of shares of Common Stock and Common Stock Equivalents then held by such Dragging Stockholder or Drag‑along Stockholder, as the case may be, and (B) the denominator of which is equal to the number of shares of Common Stock and Common Stock Equivalents then held by all of the Stockholders (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Dragging Stockholder).

(d) The consideration to be received by a Drag‑along Stockholder shall be the same form and amount of consideration per share of Common Stock to be received by the Dragging Stockholder (or, if the Dragging Stockholder is given an option as to the form and amount of consideration to be received, the same option shall be given) and the terms and conditions of such Transfer shall, except as otherwise provided in the immediately succeeding sentence, be the same as those upon which the Dragging Stockholder Transfers its Common Stock. Each Drag‑along Stockholder shall make or provide the same representations, warranties, covenants, and agreements as the Dragging Stockholder makes or provides in connection with the Drag‑along Sale (except that in the case of representations, warranties, covenants, and agreements pertaining specifically to the Dragging Stockholder, the Drag‑along Stockholder

Execution Copy

shall make the comparable representations, warranties, covenants, and agreements pertaining specifically to itself); provided, that all representations, warranties, covenants and indemnities shall be made by the Dragging Stockholder and each Drag‑along Stockholder severally and not jointly and further provided that no Drag‑along Stockholder shall be required to provide any indemnification to the Third Party Purchaser other than in respect of actions taken or defaults caused by such Drag‑along Stockholder.

(e) The fees and expenses of the Dragging Stockholder incurred in connection with a Drag‑along Sale shall be paid by the Dragging Stockholder and each Drag‑along Stockholder on a pro-rata basis based upon the amount of consideration received by such Person in such Drag-along Sale to the extent not paid or reimbursed by the Company or the Third Party Purchaser.

(f) Each Drag‑along Stockholder shall take all actions as may be reasonably necessary to consummate the Drag‑along Sale, including entering into agreements and delivering certificates and instruments, in each case consistent with the agreements being entered into and the certificates being delivered by the Dragging Stockholder.

(g) The Dragging Stockholder shall have 120 days following the date of the Drag‑along Notice in which to consummate the Drag‑along Sale, on the terms set forth in the Drag‑along Notice (which such 120 day period may be extended for a reasonable time not to exceed 180 days to the extent reasonably necessary to obtain any Government Approvals). If at the end of such period, the Dragging Stockholder has not completed the Drag‑along Sale, the Dragging Stockholder may not then effect a transaction subject to this Section 11 without again fully complying with the provisions of this Section 11.

Section 12. Tag Along Rights.

(a) Except for transfers effected on an Exchange, if a Senior Management Shareholder or a Stockholder who holds no less than 51% of the outstanding Common Stock of the Company (the “Selling Stockholder”) proposes to Transfer more than 50% of its Common Stock to a Third Party Purchaser (the “Proposed Transferee”) and the Selling Stockholder cannot or has not elected to exercise its drag‑along rights set forth in Section 11, each other Stockholder (each, a “Tag‑along Stockholder”) shall be permitted to participate in such Transfer (a “Tag‑along Sale”) on the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 12.

(b) Prior to the consummation of any such Transfer of Common Stock described in Section 12(a), the Selling Stockholder shall deliver to the Company and each other Stockholder a written notice (a “Sale Notice”) of the proposed Tag‑along Sale subject to this Section 12 no later than 10 Business Days prior to the execution of an agreement for a Tag‑along Sale. The Sale Notice shall make reference to the Tag‑along Stockholders’ rights hereunder and shall describe in reasonable detail:

(i) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock the Proposed Transferee has offered to purchase.

(ii) the identity of the Proposed Transferee;

Execution Copy

(iii) the proposed date, time and location of the closing of the Tag‑along Sale;

(v) a copy of any form of agreement proposed to be executed in connection therewith.

(c) Each Tag‑along Stockholder shall exercise its right to participate in a Transfer of Common Stock by the Selling Stockholder subject to this Section 12 by delivering to the Selling Stockholder a written notice (a “Tag‑along Notice”) stating its election to do so and specifying the number of shares of Common Stock to be Transferred by it no later than five Business Days after receipt of the Sale Notice (the “Tag‑along Period”). The offer of each Tag‑along Stockholder set forth in a Tag‑along Notice shall be irrevocable, and, to the extent such offer is accepted, such Tag‑along Stockholder shall be bound and obligated to Transfer in the proposed Transfer on the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 12. The Selling Stockholder and each Tag‑along Stockholder shall have the right to Transfer in a Transfer subject to this Section 12 the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the product of (x) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock the Proposed Transferee proposes to buy as stated in the Sale Notice and (y) a fraction (A) the numerator of which is equal to the number of shares of Common Stock and Common Stock Equivalents then held by the Selling Stockholder or such Tag‑along Stockholder, as the case may be, and (B) the denominator of which is equal to the number of shares of Common Stock and Common Stock Equivalents then held by all of the Stockholders (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Selling Stockholder).

(d) Each Tag‑along Stockholder who does not deliver a Tag‑along Notice in compliance with Section 12(c) above shall be deemed to have waived all of such Tag‑along Stockholder’s rights to participate in such Transfer, and the Selling Stockholder shall (subject to the rights of any participating Tag‑along Stockholder) thereafter be free to Transfer to the Proposed Transferee its shares of Common Stock at a per share price that is no greater than the per share price set forth in the Sale Notice and on terms and conditions which are not materially more favorable to the Selling Stockholder than those set forth in the Sale Notice without any further obligation to the non‑accepting Tag‑along Stockholders.

(e) Each Tag‑along Stockholder participating in a Transfer pursuant to this Section 12 shall receive the same consideration per share as the Selling Stockholder after deduction of such Tag‑along Stockholder’s proportionate share of the related expenses in accordance with Section 12(g) below.

(f) Each Tag‑along Stockholder shall make or provide the same representations, warranties, covenants, and agreements as the Selling Stockholder makes or provides in connection with the Tag‑along Sale (except that in the case of representations, warranties, covenants, and agreements pertaining specifically to the Selling Stockholder, the Tag‑along Stockholder shall make the comparable representations, warranties, covenants, indemnities and agreements pertaining specifically to itself); provided, that all representations, warranties, and covenants shall be made by the Selling Stockholder and each Tag‑along Stockholder severally

Execution Copy

and not jointly and provided further that no Tag‑along Stockholder shall have any indemnification obligation to the Proposed Transferee other than in respect of actions taken or defaults caused by such Tag‑along Stockholder.

(g) The Selling Stockholder and each Tag‑along Stockholder shall be responsible for its own expenses.

(h) Each Tag‑along Stockholder shall take all actions as may be reasonably necessary to consummate the Tag‑along Sale, including entering into agreements and delivering certificates and instruments, in each case consistent with the agreements being entered into and the certificates being delivered by the Selling Stockholder.

(i) The Selling Stockholder shall have 120 Business Days following the expiration of the Tag‑along Period in which to Transfer the shares of Common Stock described in the Sale Notice, on the terms set forth in the Sale Notice (which such 120 Business Day period may be extended for a reasonable time not to exceed 180 Business days to the extent reasonably necessary to obtain any Government Approvals). If at the end of such 120 Business day period, the Selling Stockholder has not completed such Transfer, the Selling Stockholder may not then effect a Transfer of Common Stock subject to this Section 12 without again fully complying with the provisions of this Section 12.

(j) If the Selling Stockholder Transfers to the Proposed Transferee any of its shares of Common Stock in breach of this Section 12, then each Tag‑along Stockholder shall have the right to Transfer to the Selling Stockholder, and the Selling Stockholder undertakes to purchase from each Tag‑along Stockholder, the number of shares of Common Stock that such Tag‑along Stockholder would have had the right to Transfer to the Proposed Transferee pursuant to this Section 12, for a per share amount and form of consideration and upon the terms and conditions on which the Proposed Transferee bought such Common Stock from the Selling Stockholder, and without indemnity being granted by any Tag‑along Stockholder to the Selling Stockholder; provided, that, nothing contained in this Section 12 shall preclude any Stockholder from seeking alternative remedies against such Selling Stockholder as a result of its breach of this Section 12. The Selling Stockholder shall also reimburse each Tag‑along Stockholder for any and all reasonable and documented out‑of‑pocket fees and expenses, including reasonable legal fees and expenses, incurred pursuant to the exercise or the attempted exercise of the Tag‑along Stockholder’s rights.

Section 13. Termination.

(a) This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing Date:

(i) by the Company on one hand or the Standby Purchaser on the other hand by written notice to the other party hereto, if there is a material breach of this Agreement by the other party that is not cured within fifteen (15) days after receipt of written notice of such breach by such breaching party;

(ii) if, by action of the Exchanges’ attorney’s-in-fact, the Exchanges shall have decided to abandon the Plans of Conversion;

Execution Copy

(iii) if the Plans of Conversion shall have been proposed for approval and adoption at a meeting of the Voting Subscribers and shall have failed to receive approval at such meeting or any adjournment thereof or if the Department shall have stated in writing that it does not approve or intend to approve the Plans of Conversion;

(iv) the Closing has not occurred by March 31, 2019 (the “Outside Date”), provided that the party seeking to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this clause (iv) shall not have failed to perform the covenants, agreements and conditions to be performed by it which has been the primary cause of, or resulted in, the failure of the Closing to occur by the Outside Date, and further provided that if any approvals necessary to proceed with or complete the Conversion or the Offerings have not been received by December 31, 2018, either the Company or the Standby Purchaser may extend the Outside Date for up to six months by giving written notice thereof to the other party, so long as, in the case of an extension sought by the Company, each of the Company and the Exchanges shall have performed the covenants, agreements and conditions to be performed by it;

(v) at any time prior to Superior Proposal Termination End Date, by the Company, if the Company or the Attorneys-in-Fact have determined to accept a Superior Proposal, subject to the terms and conditions of Section 13(c), and provided that substantially concurrently with, and in any event the same day of, such termination, definitive documentation in connection with the Superior Proposal is entered into; or

(vi) By the Standby Purchaser or the Company if any Governmental Entity shall have issued an order, decree or ruling or taken any other action permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and such order, decree, ruling or other action shall have become final and nonappealable or if the removal or reversal of such order, decree, ruling or other action should constitute a Burdensome Condition.

(b) In the event of termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 13(a), written notice thereof shall as promptly as practicable be given to the other parties to this Agreement and this Agreement shall terminate and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be abandoned, without further action by any of the parties hereto. Subject to Section 13(c), if this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 13(a):

(i) there shall be no liability or obligation on the part of the parties hereto or their respective officers and directors, and all obligations of the parties hereto shall terminate, except for (A) the obligations of the parties pursuant to this Section 13(b), and the provisions of Sections 14 through 20 and Section 22, and (B) any liabilities for any breach by the parties of the terms and conditions of this Agreement prior to such termination; and

(ii) all filings, applications and other submissions made pursuant to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall, to the extent practicable, be withdrawn from any Governmental Entity to which made.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company shall not be entitled to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 13(a)(v), unless

Execution Copy

(x) the Company shall have provided to the Standby Purchaser ten (10) Business Days’ (the “Notice Period”) prior written notice (the “Superior Proposal Notice”) advising the Standby Purchaser that the Company intends to so terminate this Agreement (and specifying, in reasonable detail, the reasons for such action and the terms and conditions of any such Superior Proposal, including the identity of the Person who has made such Superior Proposal) and providing to the Standby Purchaser a copy of the relevant proposed transaction agreement or the latest draft thereof (including any related financing commitments, fee letters and other transaction documents relating to the Superior Proposal) or, if no such agreement, draft commitments, letters or documents exist, a written summary of the material terms and conditions of such Superior Proposal and (y):

(i) during the Notice Period, if requested by the Standby Purchaser, the Company and the attorneys-in-fact of the Exchanges shall have engaged in good faith negotiations with the Standby Purchaser and with Diversus regarding improvements to the terms of this Agreement or any other agreement or proposal intended to cause such Conversion Financing Proposal to no longer constitute a Superior Proposal; and

(ii) the Company’s board of directors and the respective boards of the attorneys-in-fact shall have considered any improvements proposed in writing by the Standby Purchaser (the “Proposed Changed Terms”) no later than 11:59 p.m., Eastern time, on the last day of the Notice Period and shall all have determined in good faith that the Superior Proposal would continue to constitute a Superior Proposal if such Proposed Changed Terms were to be given effect.

(d) The parties acknowledge and agree that,

(i) if the Standby Purchaser makes Proposed Changed Terms during the Notice Period (or such shorter period as is specified in this Section 13(c) below) that, as reasonably determined in good faith by Company’s board of directors and the respective boards of the attorneys-in-fact, results in the applicable Conversion Financing Proposal no longer being a Superior Proposal, then the Company shall have no right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 13(a)(v) as a result of such Conversion Financing Proposal (on such terms), and

(ii) any (1) revisions to the financial terms or any other material terms of a Superior Proposal or (2) revisions to the financial terms or any other material terms to a Conversion Financing Proposal that the boards pursuant to this Section 13(c) had determined no longer constitutes a Superior Proposal, shall constitute a new Conversion Financing Proposal and shall in each case require the Company to deliver to the Standby Purchaser a new Superior Proposal Notice and comply with this Section 13(c) and a new Notice Period shall commence thereafter.

(e) In the event of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 13(a)(ii), Section 13(a)(v), or the Closing does not occur solely by reason of the failure of any of the Company or Diversus to enter into the Diversus Management Agreement, the Assumption of Debt Agreement (provided that the applicable lender’s consent and agreement is obtained), the Loan Agreement (provided that the Intercreditor Agreement is executed), or the Option Agreement, the Company and the Exchanges (subject to the formal approval of the

Execution Copy

Pennsylvania Department of Insurance), jointly and severally, shall be obligated to pay to the Standby Purchaser a termination fee (the “Termination Fee”) equal to (i) the amount of the Standby Purchaser’s costs incurred conducting diligence on the Company and the Exchanges and in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement and the other documentation entered into in connection herewith, which shall not exceed $500,000 plus (ii) an amount equal to three (3.0%) of the aggregate statutory surplus of the Exchanges; provided that the Exchanges’ liability with respect to any such amounts shall be limited to an amount permitted by the Department if so required by the Department and shall be subject to the formal approval of the Pennsylvania Department of Insurance. For purposes of measuring the amount due in the preceding clause (ii), the statutory surplus of the Exchanges shall be the amount reported on their respective December 31, 2017 audited financial statements. The parties acknowledge and agree that the payment of such fee is in consideration of, among other things, the Standby Purchaser’s efforts with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby and its commitment of resources to pursue this transaction, and to reimburse the Standby Purchaser for all expenses incurred and opportunities foregone as a result of its pursuit of the transaction, the value of which is difficult to ascertain as of the date of this Agreement. The Exchanges further covenant and agree that if the Exchanges proceed with a Superior Proposal or any transaction with respect to the conversion of one or more of the Exchanges to stock form, and if, as the result of such transaction, the Company is not the holding company of the Exchanges or the company which is the issuer of shares in the applicable conversion stock offering, then the documentation for such transaction (whether a plan of conversion or otherwise) shall provide that the holding company of one or more the Exchanges, or the company which is the issuer of shares in the applicable conversion stock offering shall assume the Company’s obligation to pay the termination fee pursuant to this Section 13(e). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement or in the Supplemental Agreement or in any agreement contemplated hereby or thereby, in the event this Agreement or the Supplemental Agreement is terminated solely due to the failure of Diversus to receive the Shareholder Approval (as defined in the Supplement Agreement), the Company and the Exchanges (subject to the formal approval of the Pennsylvania Department of Insurance), jointly and severally, shall be obligated to pay to the Standby Purchaser a termination fee (the “No Vote Termination Fee”) equal to the amount of the Standby Purchaser’s costs incurred conducting diligence on the Company and the Exchanges and in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement and the other documentation entered into in connection herewith, which shall not exceed $500,000; provided that the Company and the Exchanges (subject to the formal approval of the Pennsylvania Department of Insurance), jointly and severally, shall be obligated to pay to the Standby Purchaser the full Termination Fee (less the amount of any No Vote Termination Fee actually paid) in the event that the Company and/or the Exchanges enter in to documentation with respect to a transaction substantially similar to the transactions contemplated hereby within twelve (12) months of the termination hereof (the provisions of the foregoing sentence of this Section 13(e) shall apply to such obligation mutatis mutandis).

Section 14. Survival. The representations and warranties of the Company and the Standby Purchaser contained in this Agreement or in any certificate delivered hereunder shall survive the Closing hereunder.

Section 15. Notices. All notices, communications and deliveries required or permitted by this Agreement shall be made in writing signed by the party making the same, shall specify

Execution Copy

the Section of this Agreement pursuant to which it is given or being made and shall be deemed given or made (i) on the date delivered if delivered by hand, (ii) on the third (3rd) Business Day after it is mailed if mailed by United States registered or certified mail (return receipt requested) (with postage and other fees prepaid), or (iii) on the day after it is delivered, prepaid, to an overnight express delivery service promising next business day delivery that confirms to the sender delivery to the recipient on such day, as follows:

or to such other representative or at such other address of a party as such party hereto may furnish to the other parties in writing in accordance with this Section 15. If notice is given pursuant to this Section 15 of any assignment to a permitted successor or assign of a party hereto, the notice shall be given as set forth above to such successor or permitted assign of such party.

Section 16. Assignment. This Agreement will be binding upon, and will inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by, the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. No party to this Agreement may assign this Agreement or any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other party hereto; provided that the Standby Purchaser may assign its rights and obligations hereunder to an Affiliate of the Standby Purchaser (excluding Prosperity Life Insurance Group or any subsidiary thereof) if the Standby Purchaser gives written notice of such assignment to the Company within five (5) Business Days thereof and the Standby Purchaser guarantees performance by such Affiliate of the Standby Purchaser’s obligations under this Agreement.

Section 17. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the Supplemental Agreement, embodies the entire agreement and understanding between the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter contained herein. Except as expressly set forth in the Supplemental Agreement, there are no restrictions, promises, warranties, or undertakings, other than those set forth or referred to herein, with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, andthis Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings between the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement.

Section 18. Governing Law; Venue. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania (other than its rules of conflict of laws to the extent the application of the laws of another jurisdiction would be

Execution Copy

required thereby). The state courts of the County of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania shall have the exclusive jurisdiction over any and all claims, lawsuits and litigation relating to or arising out of this Agreement, the subject matter hereof or the transactions contemplated hereby. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably (a) submits to the personal jurisdiction of such courts over such party in connection with any litigation, proceeding or other legal action arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, and (b) waives to the fullest extent permitted by law any objection to the venue of any such litigation, proceeding or action which is brought in any such court.

Section 19. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any Person or circumstances is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remaining provisions hereof, or the application of such provision to Persons or circumstances other than those as to which it has been held invalid or unenforceable, shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated thereby, so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner adverse to any party. Upon such determination, the parties shall negotiate in good faith in an effort to agree upon a suitable and equitable substitute provision to effect the original intent of the parties.

Section 20. Extension or Modification of Rights Offering. Without the prior written consent of the Standby Purchaser, the Company may (a) waive irregularities in the manner of exercise of the Rights, and (b) waive conditions relating to the method (but not the timing) of the exercise of the Rights.

Section 21. Most Favored Nation. Except as disclosed or set forth herein, during the period from the date of this Agreement through the Closing Date, neither the Company nor its subsidiaries shall enter into any additional, or modify any existing, agreements with any existing or future investors in the Company or any of its subsidiaries that have the effect of establishing rights, imposing restrictions or otherwise benefiting such investor in a manner more favorable in any material respect to such investor than the rights, restrictions and benefits established with respect to the Standby Purchaser in this Agreement, unless, in any such case, this Agreement has been amended to provide the Standby Purchaser with such additional rights and benefits or reduced restrictions.

Section 22. Miscellaneous.

(a) The obligations of the Company and the Exchanges under this Agreement shall be joint and several.
