Section 10.4 Jurisdiction; Service of Process.
Any action or proceeding seeking to enforce any provision of, or based on any right arising out
of, this Agreement shall be exclusively brought against any of the parties in the District Court,
or the courts of the State of New York in the event that the District Court does not have or cannot
acquire jurisdiction in such action or proceeding, and each of the parties consents to the
jurisdiction of such courts (and of the appropriate appellate courts) in any such action or
proceeding and waives any objection to venue laid therein. Process in any action or proceeding
referred to in the preceding sentence may be served on any party anywhere in the world.
Section 10.5 Further Assurances. The parties agree (a) to furnish upon request to each
other such further information, (b) to execute and deliver to each other such other documents, and
(c) to do such other acts and things, all as any other party may reasonably request for the purpose
of carrying out the intent of this Agreement and the documents referred to in this Agreement.
Section 10.6 Waiver. The rights and remedies of the parties to this Agreement are
cumulative and not alternative. Neither the failure nor any delay by any party in exercising any
right, power, or privilege under this Agreement or the documents referred to in this Agreement will
operate as a waiver of such right, power, or privilege, and no single or partial exercise of any
such right, power, or privilege will preclude any other or further exercise of such right, power,
or privilege or the exercise of any other right, power, or privilege. To the maximum extent
permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, (a) no claim or right arising out of this Agreement or
the documents referred to in this Agreement can be discharged by any party, in whole or in part, by
a waiver or renunciation of the claim or right unless in writing signed by the other parties
hereto; (b) no waiver that may be given by a party will be applicable except in
13
the specific
instance for which it is given; and (c) no notice to or demand on one party will be deemed to be a
waiver of any obligation of such party or of the right of the party giving such notice or demand to
take further action without notice or demand as provided in this Agreement or the documents
referred to in this Agreement.
Section 10.7 Entire Agreement; Amendment. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements
between the parties with respect to its subject matter, whether oral or written, and constitutes
(along with the documents referred to in or contemplated by this Agreement, including, without
limitation, the exhibits hereto) a complete and exclusive statement of the terms of the agreement
between the parties with respect to its and their subject matter. This Agreement may not be
amended except by a written agreement executed by the parties hereto.
Section 10.8 Enforcement of Agreement. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage
would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement was not performed in
accordance with its specific terms or was otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the
parties will be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and
to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, this being in addition to any other remedy
to which they are entitled at law or in equity.
Section 10.9 Assignments, Successors, and No Third-Party Rights. No party may assign any
of its rights under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other parties, except
Seller may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement to its Affiliates. Subject to
the preceding sentence, this Agreement will apply to, be binding in all respects upon, and inure to
the benefit of the successors and permitted assigns of the parties. Nothing expressed or referred
to in this Agreement will be construed to give any Person other than the parties to this Agreement
(and their permitted successors and assignees) any legal or equitable right, remedy, or claim under
or with respect to this Agreement or any provision of this Agreement, except that the Receiver is
an intended third-party beneficiary of this Agreement and is entitled to enforce the same as if a
party hereto with respect to the provisions hereof. Except as otherwise set forth in this
Section 10.9, this Agreement and all of its provisions and conditions are for the sole and
exclusive benefit of the parties to this Agreement and their successors and permitted assigns. Any
attempted assignment in violation of this Agreement shall be null and void ab
initio.
Section 10.10 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid or
unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, the other provisions of this Agreement will
remain in full force and effect. Any provision of this Agreement held invalid or unenforceable
only in part or degree will remain in full force and effect to the extent not held invalid or
unenforceable.
Section 10.11 Section Headings; Construction. The headings of Sections in this Agreement
are provided for convenience only and will not affect its construction or interpretation. All
references to “Section” or “Sections” refer to the corresponding Section or Sections of this
Agreement. All words used in this Agreement will be construed to be of such gender or number as
the circumstances require. Unless otherwise expressly provided, the word “including” does not
limit the preceding words or terms.

Section 10.12 Governing Law. This Agreement will be governed by the laws of the State of
New York without regard to conflicts of law principles.
Section 10.13 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts and by
facsimile signature, all of which will be deemed to be an original copy of this Agreement and all
of which, when taken together, will be deemed to constitute one and the same agreement.
Section 10.14 Receiver. Buyers expressly, jointly and severally, acknowledge and agree,
that (i) this Agreement is executed by the Receiver, not individually or personally, but solely in
his capacity as the Receiver for Seller, among others, in the exercise of the powers and authority
conferred and vested in him by the District Court Orders, (ii) any obligation, representation,
