The Notes will be offered and sold to the Initial Purchasers pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) thereunder (collectively, the “Securities Act”). Upon original issuance thereof, and until such time as the same is no longer required under the applicable requirements of the Securities Act, the Notes shall bear the legends set forth in the final offering memorandum, dated the date hereof (the “Final Offering Memorandum”). Kratos has prepared a preliminary offering memorandum, dated July 14, 2011 (the “Preliminary Offering Memorandum”), (ii) a pricing term sheet, dated the date hereof, attached hereto as Schedule II, which includes pricing terms and other information with respect to the Notes (the “Pricing Supplement”), and (iii) the Final Offering Memorandum, in each case, relating to the offer and sale of the Notes (the “Offering”).

Concurrently with the issuance of the Securities (as defined below), Kratos will enter into an amended and restated revolving credit facility that will provide for revolving commitments of at least $60.0 million thereunder and will expire no earlier than the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Credit Facility”).
2. Terms of Offering. The Initial Purchasers have advised Kratos, and Kratos understands, that the Initial Purchasers will make offers to sell (the “Exempt Resales”) some or all of the Notes purchased by the Initial Purchasers hereunder on the terms set forth in the Final Offering Memorandum to persons (the “Subsequent Purchasers”) whom the Initial Purchasers reasonably believe (i) are “qualified institutional buyers” (“QIBs”) (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act), or (ii) are not “U.S. persons” (as defined in Regulation S under the Securities Act) and in compliance with the laws applicable to such persons in jurisdictions outside of the United States.
Pursuant to the Indenture, all Domestic Restricted Subsidiaries of Kratos shall fully and unconditionally guarantee, on a senior secured basis, to each holder of the Notes and the Existing Notes and the Trustee, the payment and performance of Kratos’ obligations under the Indenture, the Notes and the Existing Notes (each such subsidiary being referred to herein as a “Guarantor” and each such guarantee of the Notes being referred to herein as a “Guarantee” and, together with the Notes, the “Securities,” and each guarantee of the Existing Notes together with the Existing Notes, the “Existing Securities”).
Pursuant to the terms of the Collateral Agreements, all of the obligations under the Existing Securities and the Indenture are secured, and all of the obligations under the Securities will be secured, by a lien and security interest in substantially all of the assets of Kratos and the Guarantors.
Holders of the Notes (including Subsequent Purchasers) will have the registration rights set forth in the registration rights agreement applicable to the Notes (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) in the form attached as Exhibit A hereto, to be executed on and dated as of the Closing Date (as hereinafter defined). Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, Kratos and the Guarantors will agree, among other things, to file with the SEC (a) a registration statement under the Securities Act (the “Exchange Offer Registration Statement”) relating to notes to be offered in exchange for the Notes (the “Exchange Notes”), and guarantees to be offered in exchange for the Guarantees (the “Exchange Guarantees”), which shall be identical to the Notes and Guarantees, respectively, except that the Exchange Notes and Exchange Guarantees shall have been registered pursuant to the Exchange Offer Registration Statement and will not be subject to restrictions on transfer or contain additional interest provisions, (such offer to exchange being referred to as the “Exchange Offer”), and/or (b) under certain circumstances, a shelf registration statement pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act (the “Shelf Registration Statement”) relating to the resale by certain holders of the Notes. If required under the Registration Rights Agreement, Kratos will issue Exchange Notes to the Initial Purchasers (the “Private Exchange Notes”). If Kratos fails to satisfy its obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement, it will be required to pay additional interest to the holders of the Notes under certain circumstances to be set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement.
This Agreement, the Indenture, the Collateral Agreements, the Registration Rights Agreement, the Notes, the Guarantees, the Engagement Letter dated May 15, 2011 (the “Engagement Letter”) between Kratos, Jefferies and Key, the Exchange Notes, the Exchange Guarantees and the Private Exchange Notes are collectively referred to herein as the “Documents”, and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby are collectively referred to herein as the “Transactions.” Nothing in this Agreement should be read to limit or otherwise modify the terms and provisions of the Engagement Letter, provided that, in the event any terms of the Engagement Letter are inconsistent with or contradict any terms of this Agreement, this Agreement shall govern.
3. Purchase, Sale and Delivery. On the basis of the representations, warranties, agreements and covenants herein contained and subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, Kratos agrees to issue and sell to the Initial Purchasers, and the Initial Purchasers agree to purchase from Kratos, the Securities at a purchase price of 102.9% of the aggregate principal amount thereof. Delivery to the Initial Purchasers of and payment for the Securities shall be
made at a closing (the “Closing”) to be held at 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on July 27, 2011 (the “Closing Date”) at the New York offices of White & Case LLP (or such other place as shall be reasonably acceptable to the Initial Purchasers); provided, however, that if the Closing has not taken place on the Closing Date because of a failure to satisfy one or more of the conditions specified in Section 7 hereof and this Agreement has not otherwise been terminated by the Initial Purchasers in accordance with its terms, “Closing Date” shall mean 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the first business day following the satisfaction (or waiver) of all such conditions after notification by Kratos to the Initial Purchasers of the satisfaction (or waiver) of such conditions.
Kratos shall deliver to the Initial Purchasers one or more certificates representing the Securities in definitive form, registered in such names and denominations as the Initial Purchasers may request, against payment by the Initial Purchasers of the purchase price therefor by immediately available federal funds bank wire transfer to such bank account or accounts as Kratos shall designate to the Initial Purchasers at least two business days prior to the Closing.

Securities to be represented by one or more definitive global securities in book-entry form will be deposited on the Closing Date, by or on behalf of Kratos, with The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) or its designated custodian, and registered in the name of Cede & Co. It is understood that each Initial Purchaser has authorized Jefferies, for its account, to accept delivery of, receipt for, and make payment of the purchase price for, the Notes which it has agreed to purchase. Jefferies, individually and not as representatives of the Initial Purchasers, may (but shall not be obligated to) make payment of the purchase price for the Notes to be purchased by any Initial Purchaser whose funds have not been received by the Closing Date, but such payment shall not relieve such Initial Purchaser from its obligations hereunder.

In the ordinary course of its business, Kratos and Integral periodically reviews the effects of Environmental Laws on the business, operations and properties of Kratos and its Subsidiaries and Integral, respectively, in the course of which it identifies and evaluates associated costs and liabilities (including, without limitation, any capital or operating expenditures required for clean-up, closure of properties or compliance with Environmental Laws, or any permit, license or approval, any related constraints on operating activities and any potential liabilities to third parties). On the basis of such review, Kratos and, to Kratos’ knowledge, Integral have reasonably concluded that such associated costs would not have a Material Adverse Effect.
(jj) Insurance. Each of Kratos, its Subsidiaries and each Integral Entity is insured by insurers of recognized financial responsibility against such losses and risks and in such amounts as are prudent and customary in the businesses in which it is engaged.

(i) No Applicable Law shall have been enacted, adopted or issued and (ii) no stop order suspending the qualification or exemption from qualification of any of the Securities in any jurisdiction shall have been issued and no proceeding for that purpose shall have been commenced or, to Kratos’ knowledge, after due inquiry, be pending or contemplated as of the Closing Date that, would, as of the date hereof and at the Closing Date, restrain, enjoin, prevent or interfere with the consummation of the Offering or any of the Transactions or would, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.
8. Indemnification and Contribution.
(a) Indemnification by Kratos and the Guarantors. Kratos and each of the Guarantors jointly and severally agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Initial Purchaser, its affiliates,
directors, officers and employees, and each person, if any, who controls such Initial Purchaser within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities of any kind to which such Initial Purchaser, affiliate, director, officer, employee or such controlling person may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state statutory law or regulation, or at common law or otherwise (including in settlement of any litigation, if such settlement is effected with the written consent of Kratos, insofar as any such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon:
(i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Time of Sale Document, any Company Additional Written Communication or the Final Offering Memorandum, or any amendment or supplement thereto; or
(ii) the omission or alleged omission to state, in the Time of Sale Document, any Company Additional Written Communication or the Final Offering Memorandum, or any amendment or supplement thereto, a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;
and, subject to the provisions hereof, will reimburse, as incurred, such Initial Purchaser and its affiliates, directors, officers, employees and each such controlling persons for any legal or other expenses incurred by such person in connection with investigating, defending against, settling, compromising, paying or appearing as a third-party witness in connection with any such loss, claim, damage, liability, expense or action in respect thereof; provided, however, Kratos and the Guarantors will not be liable in any such case to the extent (but only to the extent) that a court of competent jurisdiction shall have determined by a final, unappealable judgment that such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense resulted solely from any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in the Time of Sale Document, any Company Additional Written Communication or the Final Offering Memorandum or any amendment or supplement thereto in reliance upon and in conformity with written information concerning the Initial Purchasers furnished to Kratos by the Initial Purchasers specifically for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by the Initial Purchasers to Kratos consists of the information set forth in Section 13. The indemnity agreement set forth in this Section shall be in addition to any liability that Kratos and the Guarantors may otherwise have to the indemnified parties.
(b) Indemnification by the Initial Purchasers. Each Initial Purchaser agrees severally and not jointly to indemnify and hold harmless each of Kratos, each of the Guarantors and their respective directors, officers and each person, if any, who controls Kratos within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses to which Kratos, such Guarantors or any such director, officer or controlling person may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as a court of competent jurisdiction shall have determined by a final, unappealable judgment that such losses, claims, damages,
liabilities or expenses (or actions in respect thereof) have resulted solely from (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Time of Sale Document or the Final Offering Memorandum or any amendment or supplement thereto or (ii) the omission or the alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, in each case to the extent (but only to the extent) that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information concerning the Initial Purchasers furnished to Kratos by the Initial Purchasers specifically for use therein as set forth in Section 13; and, subject to the limitation set forth immediately preceding this clause, will reimburse, as incurred, any legal or other expenses incurred by Kratos, each of the Guarantors or any such director, officer or controlling person in connection with any such loss, claim, damage, liability, expense or action in respect thereof. The indemnity agreement set forth in this Section shall be in addition to any liability that the Initial Purchasers may otherwise have to the indemnified parties.
(c) Notifications and Other Indemnification Procedures. As promptly as reasonably practicable after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section of notice of the commencement of any action for which such indemnified party is entitled to indemnification under this Section, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section, notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof in writing; but the omission to so notify the indemnifying party (i) will not relieve such indemnifying party from any liability under Section 8(a) or (b) above unless and only to the extent it is materially prejudiced as a proximate result thereof and (ii) will not, in any event, relieve the indemnifying party from any obligations to any indemnified party other than the indemnification obligation provided in Section 8(a) and (b) above. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may elect, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified by written notice delivered to the indemnified party promptly after receiving the aforesaid notice from such indemnified party, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party; provided, however, that if (i) the use of counsel chosen by the indemnifying party to represent the indemnified party would present such counsel with a conflict of interest, (ii) the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party, and the indemnified party shall have concluded that a conflict may arise between the positions of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party in conducting the defense of any such action or that there may be one or more legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, or (iii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after receipt by the indemnifying party of notice of the institution of such action, then, in each such case, the indemnifying party shall not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties and such indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to defend such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties at the expense of the indemnifying party. After notice
from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof and approval by such indemnified party of counsel appointed to defend such action, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section for any legal or other expenses, other than reasonable costs of investigation, subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof, unless (i) the indemnified party shall have employed separate counsel in accordance with the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence (it being understood, however, that in connection with such action the indemnifying party shall not be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate counsel (in addition to local counsel) in any one action or separate but substantially similar actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, designated by the Initial Purchasers in the case of Section 8(a) or Kratos in the case of Section 8(b), representing the indemnified parties under such Section 8(a) or (b), as the case may be, who are parties to such action or actions), (ii) the indemnifying party has authorized in writing the employment of counsel for the indemnified party at the expense of the indemnifying party or (iii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of the action, in each of which cases the fees and expenses of counsel shall be at the expense of the indemnifying party and shall be paid as they are incurred. After such notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party, the indemnifying party will not be liable for the costs and expenses of any settlement of such action effected by such indemnified party without the prior written consent of the indemnifying party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), unless such indemnified party waived in writing its rights under this Section, in which case the indemnified party may effect such a settlement without such consent.
(d) Settlements. No indemnifying party shall be liable under this Section for any settlement of any claim or action (or threatened claim or action) effected without its written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, but if a claim or action settled with its written consent, or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff with respect to any such claim or action, each indemnifying party jointly and severally agrees, subject to the exceptions and limitations set forth above, to indemnify and hold harmless each indemnified party from and against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities (and legal and other expenses as set forth above) incurred by reason of such settlement or judgment. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), effect any settlement or compromise of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which the indemnified party is or could have been a party, or indemnity could have been sought hereunder by the indemnified party, unless such settlement (A) includes an unconditional written release of the indemnified party, in form and substance satisfactory to the indemnified party, from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and (B) does not include any statement as to an admission of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of the indemnified party.
(e) Contribution. In circumstances in which the indemnity agreements provided for in this Section is unavailable to, or insufficient to hold harmless, an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in respect thereof), each
indemnifying party, in order to provide for just and equitable contributions, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect (i) the relative benefits received by the indemnifying party or parties, on the one hand, and the indemnified party, on the other hand, from the Offering or (ii) if the allocation provided by the foregoing clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the indemnifying party or parties, on the one hand, and the indemnified party, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions or alleged statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof). The relative benefits received by Kratos and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other hand, shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total proceeds from the Offering (before deducting expenses) received by Kratos bear to the total discounts and commissions received by the Initial Purchasers. The relative fault of the parties shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by Kratos and the Guarantors, on the one hand, or the Initial Purchasers pursuant to Section 8(b) above, on the other hand, the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission or alleged statement or omissions, and any other equitable considerations appropriate in the circumstances.
(f) Equitable Consideration. Kratos, the Guarantors and the Initial Purchasers agree that it would not be equitable if the amount of such contribution determined pursuant to Section 8(e) were determined by pro rata or per capita allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to in Section 8(e). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, the Initial Purchasers shall not be obligated to make contributions hereunder that in the aggregate exceed the total discounts, commissions and other compensation received by such Initial Purchasers under this Agreement, less the aggregate amount of any damages that such Initial Purchasers have otherwise been required to pay by reason of the untrue or alleged untrue statements or the omissions or alleged omissions to state a material fact. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Initial Purchasers’ obligation to contribute hereunder shall be several in proportion to their respective purchase obligations hereunder and not joint. For purposes of Section 8(e), each director, officer and employee of each Initial Purchaser, and each person, if any, who controls such Initial Purchaser within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, shall have the same rights to contribution as the Initial Purchasers, and each director, officer and employee of Kratos and the Guarantors, and each person, if any, who controls Kratos or any of the Guarantors within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, shall have the same rights to contribution as Kratos and the Guarantors.
9. Termination. Jefferies may terminate this Agreement at any time prior to the Closing Date by written notice to Kratos if any of the events described in Sections 7(l) (No
Material Adverse Change), 7(m) (No Hostilities) or 7(n) (No Suspension in Trading; Banking Moratorium) shall have occurred or if the Initial Purchasers shall decline to purchase the Securities for any reason permitted by this Agreement. Kratos may terminate this Agreement on or before the Closing Date by written notice to Jefferies if Kratos becomes aware that the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement will not be consummated on or prior to the Closing Date (other than as a result of any action or inaction by Kratos or any of its Subsidiaries). Any termination pursuant to this Section shall be without liability on the part of (a) Kratos or the Guarantors to the Initial Purchasers, except that Kratos and the Guarantors shall be obligated to reimburse the expenses of the Initial Purchasers pursuant to Section 5(f) hereof; provided, however that if Kratos terminates this Agreement pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence then no such reimbursement obligation shall exist hereunder (but Kratos acknowledges and agrees that to the extent such expenses are reimbursable under the Debt Financing Letters (as defined in the Commitment Letter), such expenses shall continue to be reimbursable thereunder in accordance with the terms thereof) or (b) the Initial Purchasers to Kratos or the Guarantors, except, in the case of each of clauses (a) and (b), that the provisions of Sections 9 and 10 hereof shall at all times be effective and shall survive such termination.
10. Survival. The representations and warranties, covenants, indemnities and contribution and expense reimbursement provisions and other agreements of Kratos and the Guarantors set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect, and will survive, regardless of (i) any investigation, or statement as to the results thereof, made by or on behalf of the Initial Purchasers, (ii) the acceptance of the Securities, and payment for them hereunder, and (iii) any termination of this Agreement.
11. Defaulting Initial Purchaser. If, on the Closing Date, any one of the Initial Purchasers shall fail or refuse to purchase Securities that it or they have agreed to purchase hereunder on such date, and the aggregate principal amount of Securities which such defaulting Initial Purchaser agreed but failed or refused to purchase is not more than one tenth of the aggregate principal amount of Securities to be purchased on such date, the other Initial Purchasers shall be obligated severally in the proportions that the principal amount of Securities set forth opposite their respective names in Schedule I hereto bears to the aggregate principal amount of Securities set forth opposite the names of all such non-defaulting Initial Purchasers to purchase the Securities which such defaulting Initial Purchaser agreed but failed or refused to purchase on such date. If, on the Closing Date any Initial Purchaser shall fail or refuse to purchase Securities which it or they have agreed to purchase hereunder on such date and the aggregate principal amount of Securities with respect to which such default occurs is more than one tenth of the aggregate principal amount of Securities to be purchased on such date, and arrangements satisfactory to the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers and Kratos for the purchase of such Securities are not made within 36 hours after such default, this Agreement shall terminate without liability on the part of the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers or of Kratos or any Guarantor. Any action taken under this Section shall not relieve any defaulting Initial Purchaser from liability in respect of any default of such Initial Purchaser under this Agreement.
12. No Fiduciary Relationship. Kratos and the Guarantors hereby acknowledge that each Initial Purchaser is acting solely as initial purchaser in connection with the purchase and sale of the Securities. Kratos and the Guarantors further acknowledge that each Initial Purchaser is acting pursuant to a contractual relationship created solely by this Agreement entered into on
an arm’s length basis, and in no event do the parties intend that the Initial Purchasers act or be responsible as a fiduciary to either Kratos, the Guarantors or their respective management, stockholders or creditors or any other person in connection with any activity that the Initial Purchasers may undertake or have undertaken in furtherance of the purchase and sale of the Securities, either before or after the date hereof. The Initial Purchasers hereby expressly disclaim any fiduciary or similar obligations to either Kratos or the Guarantors, either in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any matters leading up to such transactions, and Kratos and the Guarantors hereby confirm their understanding and agreement to that effect. Kratos, the Guarantors and the Initial Purchasers agree that they are each responsible for making their own independent judgments with respect to any such transactions and that any opinions or views expressed by the Initial Purchasers to Kratos and the Guarantors regarding such transactions, including, but not limited to, any opinions or views with respect to the price or market for the Securities, do not constitute advice or recommendations to Kratos and the Guarantors. Kratos and the Guarantors hereby waive and release, to the fullest permitted by law, any claims that either of Kratos or the Guarantors may have against the Initial Purchasers with respect to any breach or alleged breach of any fiduciary or similar duty to Kratos or the Guarantors in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any matters leading up to such transactions.
13. Information Supplied by Initial Purchasers. Each of Kratos and the Guarantors hereby acknowledges that, for purposes of Section 4(c) and Section 8, the only information that the Initial Purchasers have furnished to Kratos specifically for use in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum or the Final Offering Memorandum are the statements set forth in (a) the first sentence of the sixth paragraph and (b) the first sentence of the eighth paragraph under the caption “Plan of Distribution” in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum and the Final Offering Memorandum.

(b) Beneficiaries. This Agreement has been and is made solely for the benefit of and shall be binding upon Kratos, the Guarantors, the Initial Purchasers and to the extent provided in Section 8 hereof, the controlling persons, affiliates, officers, directors, partners, employees, representatives and agents referred to in Section 8 hereof and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns, all as and to the extent provided in this Agreement, and no other person shall acquire or have any right under or by virtue of this Agreement. The term “successors and assigns” shall not include a purchaser of any of the Securities from the Initial Purchasers merely because of such purchase. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is expressly understood and agreed that each purchaser who purchases Securities from the Initial Purchasers is intended to be a beneficiary of the covenants of Kratos and the Guarantors contained in the Registration Rights Agreement to the same extent as if the Securities were sold and those covenants were made directly to such purchaser by Kratos and the Guarantors, and each such purchaser shall have the right to take action against Kratos and the Guarantors to enforce, and obtain damages for any breach of, those covenants.
(c) Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial; Venue. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York. Each of Kratos and the Guarantors hereby expressly and irrevocably (i) submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the federal and state courts sitting in the Borough of Manhattan in the City of New York in any suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Transactions, and (ii) waives (a) its right to a trial by jury in any legal action or proceeding relating to this Agreement, the Transactions or any course of conduct, course of dealing, statements (whether verbal or written) or actions of the Initial
Purchasers and for any counterclaim related to any of the foregoing and (b) any obligation which it may have or hereafter may have to the laying of venue of any such litigation brought in any such court referred to above and any claim that any such litigation has been brought in an inconvenient forum.
(d) Entire Agreement; Counterparts. This Agreement, together with the Engagement Letter, constitutes the entire agreement of the parties to this Agreement and supersedes all prior written or oral and all contemporaneous oral agreements, understandings and negotiations with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each one of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument.
Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else contained in this Agreement (other than the last sentence of this paragraph) to the contrary, nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to (except as otherwise provided in this paragraph) amend, modify or impair or otherwise affect the rights and obligations (including in the case of the Commitment Parties (as such term is defined in the Commitment Letter as herein defined), the Commitments (as such term is defined in the Commitment Letter)) of any of the parties under the Commitment Letter dated May 15, 2011 among Kratos, on the one hand, and Xxxxxxxxx Group, Inc. and Key Capital Corporation, on the other hand (the “Commitment Letter”) or any other Debt Financing Letter (as defined therein), in any manner whatsoever. In the event (A) (i) any of the conditions set forth in Section 7 of this Agreement are not satisfied or waived by the Initial Purchasers on July 27, 2011 or (ii) the Initial Purchasers would have the right to terminate this Agreement in accordance with Section 9 of this Agreement but (B) the Commitment Parties would not have the right to terminate their Commitments under the Commitment Letter and the conditions to the obligations of the Commitment Parties to purchase Notes (as defined therein) under Section 3 of the Commitment Letter have been satisfied by such date, then (1) unless otherwise waived in writing by X. Xxxxx (which waiver may be given or withheld by X. Xxxxx in its sole and absolute discretion), all rights and obligations of X. Xxxxx hereunder shall be deemed to be terminated and the principal amounts set forth opposite the names of Jefferies, Key and X. Xxxxx on Schedule I hereto shall be deemed to be equal to 662/3%, 331/3% and 0%, respectively, of such aggregate principal amount of Notes that would yield $85,000,000 of gross proceeds upon the issuance thereof, in each case, as of the date hereof, ab initio, and (2) each of Jefferies and Key agrees (and, if X. Xxxxx provides such written waiver, X. Xxxxx agrees solely in the case of clause (y) below) that (x) it shall, severally and not jointly, (i) honor the obligation of it or its affiliate that is a Commitment Party under the Commitment Letter to purchase Notes or (ii) cause such affiliate to enter into a joinder and amendment to this Agreement such that such affiliate shall become a party hereto and purchase Notes, in each case, yielding gross proceeds equal to its or such affiliate’s Commitment unless it or such affiliate agrees to purchase Notes in excess of its or such affiliate’s Commitment (which agreement to purchase Notes in excess of such applicable Commitment may be given or withheld by it or such affiliate in its or such affiliate’s sole and absolute discretion) and (y) this Agreement shall be amended in a manner consistent with the terms set forth under the caption “Purchase Agreement” in Exhibit A to the Commitment Letter to modify the representations and warranties, conditions and termination rights as provided for under such caption (and
each of Jefferies, Key and Kratos (and, if X. Xxxxx provides such written waiver, X. Xxxxx) agree to negotiate such amendment in good faith); provided, that in no event shall the failure to agree upon such joinder and amendment be an excuse for the Commitment Parties to fail to fund the Commitments on July 27, 2011 provided that Kratos has in fact satisfied the conditions set forth in Section 3 of the Commitment Letter (including those set forth in Exhibit B to the Commitment Letter (after giving effect to the waivers set forth in the proviso to the immediately succeeding sentence)); it being acknowledged that the Commitment Parties shall have the right to exercise their market flex rights under Section 2 of the Fee Letter (as defined in the Commitment Letter). Each of Jefferies, Key and Kratos acknowledge and agree that the conditions set forth in paragraphs (i) 5 (provided that the condition set forth in Section 7(e) hereof has been satisfied), (ii) 6, (iii) 13, (iv) 14 (subject to Kratos’ continued compliance with Section 5(d) hereof) and (v) 15 (to the extent that such paragraph 15 relates to the delivery of a comfort letter and a “bring down” comfort letter from Xxxxxx & Xxxxx, PLLC) of Exhibit B to the Commitment Letter are waived as of the date of this Agreement; provided that, in the case of clauses (ii), (iii), (iv) and (v) above, such limited waiver is effective only until 5:00 p.m. EDT on July 27, 2011, at which time such limited waiver with respect to such clauses will expire and such conditions will be reinstated and in full force and effect (it being acknowledged and agreed that after such date, 9 consecutive business days of the 10 consecutive business day period referred to in the last sentence of such paragraph 14 shall remain available for further marketing of the Notes). Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, if (i) the Notes are purchased hereunder on the Closing Date or (ii) (A) by no later than 1:00 p.m. EDT on July 27, 2011, all of the conditions in the Merger Agreement to Kratos’ obligation to consummate the Acquisition have been satisfied or waived and (B) Jefferies, Key and their respective affiliates, as applicable, are ready and willing to purchase all of the Notes and Kratos refuses to issue the Notes by such time, then, in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii), all of the Commitments shall be terminated.
(e) Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof.
(f) Separability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions set forth herein shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated, and the parties hereto shall use their reasonable best efforts to find and employ an alternative means to achieve the same or substantially the same result as that contemplated by such term, provision, covenant or restriction. It is hereby stipulated and declared to be the intention of the parties that they would have executed the remaining terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions without including any of such that may be hereafter declared invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable.
(g) Amendment. This Agreement may be amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions hereof may be given, provided that the same are in writing and signed by all of the signatories hereto.
(h) Agreement Among Initial Purchasers. Any action by the Initial Purchasers hereunder may be taken by Jefferies on behalf of the Initial Purchasers, and any such action taken by Jefferies shall be binding upon each of the Initial Purchasers.
(i) Representations and Warranties Regarding Integral. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, each representation and warranty (except to the extent such representation and warranty is already modified with a knowledge qualifier) made or to be made with respect to Integral shall be deemed to have been made or will be made to the knowledge, after due inquiry, of Kratos to the extent such representation and warranty is applicable to Integral.
