Section 12.7 Entire Agreement
This Agreement (as approved by the Sale Order) and the Non-Disclosure Agreement executed by Buyer constitute the entire agreement between the Parties relating to the subject matter hereof and are the final and complete expression of their intent. No other prior or contemporaneous negotiations, promises, agreements, covenants, or representations of every kind of nature, whether made orally or in writing, have been made or relied upon by the Parties, or any of them, in negotiations leading to this Agreement or relating to the subject matter hereof, which are not expressly contained herein or in the Non-Disclosure Agreement, or which have not become merged and finally integrated herein or therein; it being the intention of the Parties hereto that in the event of any subsequent litigation, controversy, or dispute concerning the terms and provisions of this Agreement or the Non-Disclosure Agreement, no Party shall be permitted to offer or introduce oral or extrinsic evidence concerning the terms and conditions hereof that are not included or referred therein and not reflected in writing. This Agreement can only be changed, modified or discharged if consented to in writing executed by the Parties hereto.
Section 12.8 Counterparts
This Agreement may be executed (including by pdf or facsimile transmission) with counterpart signature pages or in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument.
Section 12.9 Governing Law, etc.
This Agreement shall be governed in all respects, including as to validity, interpretation and effect, by the internal laws of the State of Arizona without giving effect to the conflict of laws rules thereof. Buyer and Seller hereby irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court relating to the interpretation and enforcement of the provisions of this Agreement and of the documents referred to in this Agreement, and hereby waive, and agree not to assert, as a defense in any action, suit or proceeding for the interpretation or enforcement hereof or of any such document, that it is not subject thereto or that such action, suit or proceeding may not be brought or is not maintainable in the Bankruptcy Court or that the venue thereof may not be appropriate or that this Agreement or any of such documents may not be enforced in or by the Bankruptcy Court, and the Parties hereto irrevocably agree that all claims with respect to such action or proceeding shall be heard and determined in the Bankruptcy Court. Buyer and Seller hereby consent to and grant the Bankruptcy Court jurisdiction over the person of such parties and over the subject matter of any such dispute and agree that mailing of process or other papers in connection with any such action or proceeding in the manner provided in Section 12.5 or in such other manner as may be permitted by law, shall be valid and sufficient service thereof.
Section 12.10 Binding Effect
This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties hereto and their respective heirs, successors and permitted assigns.
Section 12.11 Assignment
This Agreement shall not be assignable (whether by contract, operation of law or otherwise) by any Party without the prior written consent of the other Party.

-25-
Section 12.13 Amendment; Waivers; etc.
No discharge of this Agreement, and no waiver hereunder, shall be valid or binding unless set forth in writing and duly executed by each of the Parties (and subject to the approval of the Bankruptcy Court, if required). Any such waiver shall constitute a waiver only with respect to the specific matter described in such writing and shall in no way impair the rights of the Party granting such waiver in any other respect or at any other time. Neither the waiver by any of the Parties hereto of a breach of or a default under any of the provisions of this Agreement, nor the failure by any of the Parties, on one or more occasions, to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement or to exercise any right or privilege hereunder, shall be construed as a waiver of any other breach or default of a similar nature, or as a waiver of any such provisions, rights or privileges hereunder. No amendment or modification of this Agreement shall be effective unless in writing executed by both Parties. No amendment, or modification hereunder shall be valid or binding unless approved by the Bankruptcy Court.
Section 12.14 Enforcement Expenses
Each Party shall pay its own expenses, including attorneys' fees, in connection with this Agreement and the performance of their respective obligations hereunder, provided, however, that in the event any suit, action, or proceeding is brought to construe or enforce the terms and conditions of this Agreement or the rights of the Parties hereunder, the losing Party shall pay to the prevailing Party all court costs and attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in such suit, action, or proceeding to be fixed in amount by the Bankruptcy Court. Attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in enforcing any judgment in respect of this Agreement are recoverable as a separate item. This Section 12.14 is intended to be severable from the other provisions of this Agreement and to survive the Closing and any judgment and, to the maximum extent permitted by law, shall not be deemed merged into any such judgment.
Section 12.15 Bulk Sales
To the extent they may apply, the Parties hereby waive compliance with the provisions of the bulk sales laws of any jurisdiction.
Section 12.16 Time is of an Essence
Time is of an essence with respect to each and every provision of this Agreement.
Section 12.17 Terms of Deposit
The Deposit and any supplement thereto shall be held by Seller's Designee either (i) in kind in the case of a cashier’s check payable to Seller's Designee, or (ii) if practicable in Seller's Designee’s sole discretion, in a segregated interest-bearing account at a depository approved by the Office of the United States Trustee under the Buyer’s federal employer tax identification number, and shall be disbursed in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, unless otherwise directed by written notice to Seller's Designee signed by Seller and Buyer. In the event of a dispute between the parties, Seller's Designee shall deposit the funds with the Bankruptcy Court until a Final Order, judgment or decree, beyond appeal, directing the disposition of the Deposit, has been issued and shall thereafter disburse or cause the Bankruptcy Court to disburse the Deposit, in accordance therewith.

Section 12.18 Buyer Indemnification Obligation
After the Closing, Buyer shall indemnify Seller against and shall hold it harmless from any and all liabilities, losses, damages, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) that Seller may suffer or incur by reason of (i) Seller’s defense of any claim, suit or proceeding made or commenced against it arising out of obligations of Seller that were expressly assumed by Buyer hereunder and only expressly for liabilities, claims or amounts arising or accruing after the Closing Date; or (ii) any finder’s fee or broker’s fees incurred by Seller in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, other than expressly provided for herein. Seller shall provide written notice to Buyer of any claim or dispute as to which indemnification is provided under this Section within ten (10) business days of receipt of written notice by Seller of the commencement, or threatened commencement, of any such action; provided that the failure to provide such notice will not affect any rights hereunder except to the extent Buyer is materially prejudiced thereby. Seller, on not less than thirty (30) days’ notice to Buyer, may make settlement of such claim, litigation or other proceeding with Buyer's consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, and such settlement shall be binding on Seller and Buyer for the purposes of this Section; provided, however, that, if within said thirty-day period Buyer shall, in writing, have requested Seller to contest such claim, or to defend against such litigation or other proceeding, then Buyer shall have the right and obligation to contest such claim or to defend against such litigation or other proceeding on its own behalf and on behalf of Seller, with counsel of its own choosing, but Seller may also, in its discretion, participate in such contest or defense on its own behalf and with counsel of its own choosing. If Buyer shall have failed, neglected or refused to contest such claim or to defend against such litigation or other proceeding, Buyer shall reimburse Seller for the expenses incurred by Seller in such contest or defense. Any payment or settlement resulting from such contest or defense, together with Seller’s costs thereof, shall be binding on Seller and on Buyer for the purposes of this Section.
Section 12.19 Survival
The representations and warranties contained in this Agreement, and any certificate and other documents delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall terminate at the Closing. The covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement and any certificate and other documents delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall not survive the Closing; provided, however, that any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement that by its terms, is to survive the Closing Date or which is to be performed after the Closing Date shall survive the Closing Date for the duration of such covenant or agreement.
Section 12.20 Exclusivity
The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement are exclusive, and the Parties confirm that they have not relied upon any other representations, warranties, covenants and agreements as an inducement to enter into this Agreement or otherwise.
Section 12.21 Remedies
Subject to the remedy limitations contained in this Agreement, no remedy herein or otherwise conferred upon Seller or Buyer shall be considered exclusive of any other remedy, but the same shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law, in equity or by statute.
