NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt, sufficiency and adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows:
1. Representations of the Shareholders. Each of the Shareholders, severally and not jointly, represents and warrants to Buyer that:

(c) From and after the date of this Agreement and until the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 8, except as provided in the next to the last sentence of this Section 4(c) each Shareholder shall not, directly or indirectly, (i) Transfer or enter into any legally binding agreement or arrangement, whether oral or written, with respect to the Transfer of, any Owned Shares to any Person, or (ii) grant any proxies, deposit any Owned Shares into any voting trust or enter into any voting arrangement, whether by proxy, voting agreement or otherwise, with respect to the Owned Shares, in each case, other than in accordance with this Agreement and the SPA.

Each Shareholder is entering into this Agreement solely in its capacity as the record holder or beneficial owner of, or the trustee of a trust whose beneficiaries are the beneficial owners of, such Shareholder’s Owned Shares and nothing herein shall, or shall be deemed or construed to, limit or affect any fiduciary duties such Shareholder may have to Seller or Luxco in its capacity as a director, officer or other fiduciary of Seller or Luxco or any actions taken by a Shareholder in its capacity as such a director, officer or other fiduciary.
6. Additional Owned Shares. Each Shareholder agrees that all Preferred Shares that such Shareholder purchases, acquires the right to vote or shares in the voting of, or otherwise acquires beneficial ownership of after the execution of this Agreement shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement and shall constitute Owned Shares of such Shareholder for all purposes of this Agreement.
7. Revocation of Prior Proxies; Irrevocable Proxy. The Shareholders hereby revoke any and all previous proxies with respect to the Owned Shares. The Shareholders hereby irrevocably (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law) appoint any individual Shareholder designated in writing by the Ownership Board, as its proxy and attorney-in-fact (with full power of substitution), for and in his, her or its name, place and stead, to vote or express consent on any matter specified in, and in accordance with, Section 4. For the avoidance of doubt, the Shareholders may vote the Owned Shares on all matters other than those specified in Section 4. The Shareholders hereby affirm that the irrevocable proxy set forth in this Section 7 is given in connection with the execution of the SPA, and that such irrevocable proxy is given to secure the performance of the duties of the Shareholder under this Agreement. Except as otherwise provided for herein, the Shareholder hereby (i) affirms that the irrevocable proxy is coupled with an interest and may under no circumstances be revoked and (ii) ratifies and confirms all that the proxies appointed hereunder may lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, the irrevocable proxy granted hereunder shall automatically terminate upon the termination of this Agreement.

Upon termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, except for any rights any Party may have in respect of any breach by any other Party of its or his or her obligations hereunder, none of the Parties shall have any further obligation or liability hereunder.
9. Specific Performance. Each Shareholder and Seller agrees that his, her or its
-5-
failure to perform the agreements and covenants hereunder will cause irreparable injury to Buyer for which damages, even if available, may not be an adequate remedy. Accordingly, Buyer, without prejudice to any rights to judicial relief it may otherwise have, shall be entitled to equitable relief, including injunction and/or specific performance, in the event of any breach or threatened breach of any provision of this Agreement. Each Shareholder and Seller agree that she, he or it will not oppose the granting of such relief on the basis that Buyer has an adequate remedy at law and that each Shareholder and Seller (as applicable) will pay any fees that Buyer may incur in enforcing this Agreement. Each Shareholder and Seller also agree that she, he or it will not seek and will agree to waive any requirement for the securing or posting of a bond in connection with Buyer’s seeking or obtaining such relief.

(a) This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the State of New York, without regard to the conflict of laws, rules or principles thereof (other than New York General Obligations Law sections 5-1401 and 5-1402) (or any other jurisdiction) to the extent such rules or principles would direct a matter to another jurisdiction.
(b) All Actions arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be heard and determined exclusively in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York or any federal court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan of the City of New York; provided, however, that if such federal court does not have jurisdiction over such Action, such Action shall be heard and determined exclusively in any state court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan of the City of New York. Consistent with the preceding sentence, the Parties (i) irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of any federal or New York state court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan of the City of New York for the purpose of any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby brought by any party, (ii) irrevocably waive, and agree not to assert by way of motion, defense or otherwise, in any such Action, any claim that it is not subject personally to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts, that its property is exempt or immune from attachment or execution, that the Action is brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of the Action is improper, or that this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby may not be enforced in or by any of the above-named courts and (iii) irrevocably consent to and grant any such court exclusive jurisdiction over the Person of such parties and over the subject matter of such Action and agree that mailing of process or other papers in connection with any such Action in the manner provided in Section 10 or in such other manner as may be permitted by applicable Law shall be valid and sufficient service thereof.
(c) EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY ACTION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

12. Amendments; Waivers. This Agreement may only be amended by a separate writing signed by the Parties, expressly so amending this Agreement. Any provision of this Agreement may be waived by the Party entitled to the benefit thereof, if in writing and signed by the Party entitled to the benefit thereof. It is agreed that no failure or delay by Seller, Buyer or any of the Shareholders 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 right, power or privilege.
13. Severability. It is understood and agreed that if any provision contained in this Agreement or the application thereof to the Parties, or any other Person or circumstance shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable Law as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained in this Agreement, or the application of such provision to such Persons or circumstances other than those as to which it has been held invalid, illegal or unenforceable, shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated thereby. In the case of any such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability, a suitable and equitable provision shall be substituted therefore in order to carry out, so far as may be valid, legal and enforceable, the intent and purpose of such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision and this Agreement.
14. Third-Party Beneficiaries. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any Person other than Seller, Buyer, the Shareholders and their respective successors and permitted assigns, any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement.
