The portion of the Purchase Price represented by clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) shall be paid in cash at the Closing by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by Sellers.

The Purchase Price shall be subject to adjustment as set forth in Section 2.09.

Section 2.06 Allocation of Purchase Price. The allocation of the Purchase Price for Tax purposes shall be prepared consistent with the principles of Section 1060 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder. As soon as commercially practicable following the Closing Date (but in any event within one hundred twenty (120) days after the Closing Date), Buyer and Sellers shall use their reasonable efforts to agree upon the allocation of the Purchase Price for Tax purposes. If, and only if, Buyer and Sellers are able to agree upon the allocation of the Purchase Price for Tax purposes within such one hundred twenty (120) day period, Buyer and Sellers shall set forth such allocation in an Exhibit 2.06, which Exhibit shall become a part of this Agreement and such Exhibit shall be final and binding on the Parties as if it had been part of this Agreement as of the Closing Date. If Buyer and Sellers are unable to agree on an allocation of the Purchase Price for Tax purposes within one hundred and twenty (120) days after the Closing Date, each of Buyer, on the one hand, and Sellers, on the other hand, shall use its own purchase price allocation with respect to the Purchased Assets.

Section 2.08 Third Party Consents. To the extent that Sellers’ rights under any Contract or Permit constituting a Purchased Asset, or any other Purchased Asset, may not be assigned to Buyer without the consent of another Person which has not been obtained, this Agreement shall not constitute an agreement to assign the same if an attempted assignment would constitute a breach thereof or be unlawful, and Sellers, at their expense, shall use their reasonable best efforts to obtain any such required consent(s) as promptly as possible. If any such consent shall not be obtained or if any attempted assignment would be ineffective or would impair Buyer’s rights under the Purchased Asset in question so that Buyer would not in effect acquire the benefit of all such rights, Sellers, to the maximum extent permitted by law and the Purchased Asset, shall act after the Closing as Buyer’s agent in order to obtain for it the benefits

thereunder and shall cooperate, to the maximum extent permitted by Law and the Purchased Asset, with Buyer in any other reasonable arrangement designed to provide such benefits to Buyer. Notwithstanding any provision in this Section 2.08 to the contrary, Buyer shall not be deemed to have waived its rights under Section 7.02(d) hereof unless and until Buyer either provides written waivers thereof or elects to proceed to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement at Closing.

Section 2.09 Apportionment.

(a) The Purchase Price set forth in Section 2.05 shall be subject to adjustment as set forth in this Section 2.09. In the event that any of the adjustments provided for in this Section 2.09 cannot be calculated as of the Closing Date, the appropriate payment shall be made by Buyer or the Sellers, as the case may be, to the other Party as promptly following the Closing Date as is practicable, but in any event within fifteen (15) days after the information necessary to make such calculations becomes available to the Parties, except as otherwise specified in this Section 2.09 or Schedule I .

(b) For each Assigned Contract (including leases of real estate or equipment and insurance policies) for which rent or other payments have been made in advance by the Sellers covering a Payment Period that includes time after the Closing Date, the Purchase Price shall be increased by the amount determined by multiplying such advance payment by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days remaining in the Payment Period after the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the total number of days in the Payment Period.

(c) For each Assigned Contract (including leases of real estate or equipment and insurance policies) for which rent or other payments are to be made in arrears by Buyer covering a Payment Period that includes time on or before the Closing Date, the Purchase Price shall be decreased by the amount determined by multiplying such payment by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the Payment Period through and including the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the total number of days in the Payment Period.

(d) For any water, sewer, fire protection and other service fees, any electricity, gas, telephone and other utility expenses, any fees relating to any Permits of the Seller transferred to Buyer, and any real estate taxes or assessments, which (i) relate to any site covered by a real estate lease that is being assigned by the Seller to Buyer as an Assigned Contract and (ii) have been paid in advance by the Seller covering a Payment Period that includes time after the Closing Date, the Purchase Price shall be increased by the amount determined by multiplying such advance payment by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days remaining in the Payment Period after the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the total number of days in the Payment Period.

(e) For any water, sewer, fire protection and other service fees, any electricity, gas, telephone and other utility expenses, any fees relating to any Permits of the Seller transferred to Buyer, and any real estate taxes or assessments, which (i) relate to any site covered by a real estate lease that is being assigned by the Seller to Buyer as an Assigned Contract and (ii) are to

be paid in arrears by Buyer covering a Payment Period that includes time on or before the Closing Date, the Purchase Price shall be decreased by the amount determined by multiplying such payment by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number days in the Payment Period through and including the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the total number of days in the Payment Period.

(f) The Natural Gas Inventory Amount shall be subject to adjustment following the Closing in accordance with the procedures set forth on Schedule I.

(g) If, at any time after the Closing, any Party receives a true-up statement from a local distribution company (“LDC”), the Parties will examine such statement, and, if necessary, request from the LDC further information, in order to determine which transactions reflected on such statement relate to periods prior to the Effective Time or after the Effective Time. The Parties will then work together in good faith in order to determine a payment amount from one Party to the other Party which gives the Sellers the aggregate economic benefit or burden, as the case may be, of those transactions occurring prior to the Effective Time, and the Buyer the aggregate economic benefit or burden, as the case may be, of those transactions occurring after the Effective Time. Such payment will be made as promptly as practicable (but in any event within three (3) Business Days) following its determination. Buyer will use commercially reasonable efforts to merge customer pools in a manner which coincides with the beginning of a new true-up cycle or at such time as Buyer has received adequate information from the LDC to make the foregoing determinations.

(h) If the Purchase Price is adjusted pursuant to this Section 2.09, the allocation of the Purchase Price among the Acquired Assets as set forth in Section 2.06 shall be appropriately modified to reflect such adjustment.

(i) The foregoing adjustment provisions shall not apply to end-user customer deposits intended as security or credit support, all of which shall be Purchased Assets.

Section 6.03 No Solicitation of Other Bids.

Each Seller shall immediately cease and cause to be terminated, and shall cause its Affiliates and all of its and their Representatives to immediately cease and cause to be terminated, all existing discussions or negotiations with any Persons conducted heretofore with respect to, or that could lead to, an Acquisition Proposal. For purposes hereof, “Acquisition Proposal” means any inquiry, proposal or offer from any Person (other than Buyer or any of its Affiliates) relating to the direct or indirect disposition, whether by asset sale, stock purchase, share exchange, merger or otherwise, of all or any portion of the Business or the Purchased Assets or any other transaction that would be inconsistent with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(c) Sellers agree that the rights and remedies for noncompliance with this Section 6.03 shall include having such provision specifically enforced by any court having equity jurisdiction, it being acknowledged and agreed that any such breach or threatened breach shall cause irreparable injury to Buyer and that money damages would not provide an adequate remedy to Buyer.

(ii) any notice or other communication from any Person alleging that the consent of such Person is or may be required in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement;

(iii) any notice or other communication from any Governmental Authority in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; and

(iv) any Actions commenced or, to Sellers’ Knowledge, threatened against, relating to or involving or otherwise affecting the Business, the Purchased Assets or the Assumed Liabilities that, if pending on the date of this Agreement, would have been required to have been disclosed pursuant to Section 4.15 or that relates to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(b) Buyer’s receipt of information pursuant to this Section 6.04 shall not operate as a waiver or otherwise affect any representation, warranty or agreement given or made by Sellers in this Agreement (including Section 8.02 and Section 9.01(b)) and shall not be deemed to amend or supplement the Disclosure Schedules.

Section 6.05 Employees and Employee Benefits.

(a) Commencing on the Closing Date, Sellers shall terminate all employees of the Business who are actively at work on the Closing Date, and subject to Section 6.05(b) and Buyer’s normal employment screening and hiring practices, Buyer shall offer employment in substantially comparable positions at substantially comparable compensation, on an “at will” basis, to all of such employees (other than ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇). Buyer will give all such employees that it hires credit for their service with Sellers for purposes of participation in Buyer’s employee benefit plans and vacation and severance policies or practices. Sellers shall bear any and all obligations and liability under the WARN Act resulting from employment losses pursuant to this Section 6.05. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Sellers may continue to employ any such employees not hired by Buyer.

(b) Sellers shall be solely responsible, and Buyer shall have no obligations whatsoever for, any compensation or other amounts payable to any current or former employee,

officer, director, independent contractor or consultant of the Business, including, without limitation, hourly pay, commission, bonus, salary, fringe, pension or profit sharing benefits or severance pay (it being understood that Sellers do not intend to pay severance to any employees of the Business hired by Buyer) for any period relating to the service with any Seller or any Affiliate of any Seller at any time on or prior to the Closing Date.

(c) Sellers shall remain solely responsible for the satisfaction of all claims for medical, dental, life insurance, health accident or disability benefits brought by or in respect of current or former employees, officers, directors, independent contractors or consultants of the Business or the spouses, dependents or beneficiaries thereof, which claims relate to events occurring on or prior to the Closing Date. Sellers also shall remain solely responsible for all workers’ compensation claims of any current or former employees, officers, directors, independent contractors or consultants of the Business which relate to events occurring on or prior to the Closing Date. Sellers shall pay, or cause to be paid, all such amounts to the appropriate persons as and when due.

Section 6.06 Confidentiality. During the Restricted Period, Sellers shall, and shall cause their Affiliates to, hold, and shall use their reasonable best efforts to cause their respective Representatives to hold, in confidence any and all information, whether written or oral, concerning the Business, except to the extent that Sellers can show, by clear and convincing evidence, that such information (a) is generally available to and known by the public through no fault of Sellers, any of their Affiliates or their respective Representatives; or (b) is lawfully acquired by Sellers, any of their Affiliates or their respective Representatives from and after the Closing from sources which are not prohibited from disclosing such information by a legal, contractual or fiduciary obligation. If Sellers or any of their Affiliates or their respective Representatives are compelled to disclose any information by judicial or administrative process or by other requirements of Law, Sellers shall promptly notify Buyer in writing and shall disclose only that portion of such information which Sellers are advised by its counsel in writing is legally required to be disclosed, provided that Seller shall use reasonable best efforts to obtain an appropriate protective order or other reasonable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded such information.

Section 6.07 Non-Competition; Non-Solicitation

(a) For a period of five (5) years commencing on the Closing Date (the “Restricted Period”), Sellers shall not, and shall not permit any of their Affiliates to, directly or indirectly, (i) engage in or assist others in engaging in the Restricted Business in the Territory; (ii) have an interest in any Person that engages directly or indirectly in the Restricted Business in the Territory in any capacity, including as a partner, shareholder, member, employee, principal, agent, trustee or consultant; or (iii) cause, induce or encourage any material actual or prospective client, customer, supplier or licensor of the Business (including any existing or former client or customer of any Seller and any Person that becomes a client or customer of the Business after the Closing), or any other Person who has a material business relationship with the Business, to

terminate or modify any such actual or prospective relationship. For the avoidance of doubt, no employee of any Seller who is an Affiliate shall be bound by the provisions of this Section 6.07(a).

(b) During the Restricted Period, Sellers shall not, and shall not permit any of their Affiliates to, directly or indirectly, hire or solicit any person who is offered employment by Buyer pursuant to Section 6.05(a) or is or was employed in the Business during the Restricted Period, or encourage any such employee to leave such employment or hire any such employee who has left such employment, except pursuant to a general solicitation which is not directed specifically to any such employees; provided, that nothing in this Section 6.07(b) shall prevent Sellers or any of their Affiliates from hiring (i) any employee whose employment has been terminated by Buyer or (ii) after one year from the date of termination of employment, any employee whose employment has been terminated by the employee. For the avoidance of doubt, no employee of any Seller who is an Affiliate shall be bound by the provisions of this Section 6.07(b).

(c) Sellers acknowledge that a breach or threatened breach of this Section 6.07 would give rise to irreparable harm to Buyer, for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy, and hereby agrees that in the event of a breach or a threatened breach by Sellers of any such obligations, Buyer shall, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies that may be available to it in respect of such breach, be entitled to equitable relief, including a temporary restraining order, an injunction, specific performance and any other relief that may be available from a court of competent jurisdiction (without any requirement to post bond).

(d) Sellers acknowledge that the restrictions contained in this Section 6.07 are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate interests of Buyer and constitute a material inducement to Buyer to enter into this Agreement and consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In the event that any covenant contained in this Section 6.07 should ever be adjudicated to exceed the time, geographic, product or service or other limitations permitted by applicable Law in any jurisdiction, then any court is expressly empowered to reform such covenant, and such covenant shall be deemed reformed, in such jurisdiction to the maximum time, geographic, product or service or other limitations permitted by applicable Law. The covenants contained in this Section 6.07 and each provision hereof are severable and distinct covenants and provisions. The invalidity or unenforceability of any such covenant or provision as written shall not invalidate or render unenforceable the remaining covenants or provisions hereof, and any such invalidity or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such covenant or provision in any other jurisdiction.

Each party shall give notice to the other party with respect to any meeting, discussion, appearance or contact with any Governmental Authority or the staff or regulators of any Governmental Authority, with such notice being sufficient to provide the other party with the opportunity to attend and participate in such meeting, discussion, appearance or contact.

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 6.08 shall require, or be construed to require, Buyer or any of its Affiliates to agree to (i) sell, hold, divest, discontinue or limit, before or after the Closing Date, any assets, businesses or interests of Buyer or any of its Affiliates; (ii) any conditions relating to, or changes or restrictions in, the operations of any such assets, businesses or interests; or (iii) any modification or waiver of the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

Unless otherwise required by applicable Law or stock exchange requirements (based upon the reasonable advice of counsel), no party to this Agreement shall make any public announcements in respect of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or otherwise communicate with any news media without the prior written consent of the other party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), and the parties shall cooperate as to the timing and contents of any such announcement.

be applicable with respect to the sale of any or all of the Purchased Assets to Buyer; it being understood that any Liabilities arising out of the failure of Sellers to comply with the requirements and provisions of any bulk sales, bulk transfer or similar Laws of any jurisdiction which would not otherwise constitute Assumed Liabilities shall be treated as Excluded Liabilities.

Section 6.13 Receivables and Payables.

(a) Receivables in General. Buyer will use reasonable efforts to assist Sellers with the receipt and processing of the Accounts Receivable, including any delinquent Accounts Receivable, to the extent such assistance is necessary and desired by Sellers. Buyer shall permit Sellers to utilize their former credit group employed by Buyer following the Closing to process such collections in a manner customary for transactions such as this and as mutually agreed by the Parties, provided, however, that (i) in no event shall Buyer be responsible for any third-party costs, fees or expenses required to commence litigation or other collection processes on Sellers’ behalf and (ii) the primary duties of such personnel must be prioritized in day-to-day activity to address Buyer’s requirements for the on-going conduct of the Business.

(b) Lockboxes, Payment Instructions and Reconciliation of Receivables. Sellers will continue to maintain their existing lockbox accounts for the remittance of the Accounts Receivable. Buyer will not give customers of the Business new payment instructions until it sends out invoices for the first full billing period beginning on or after the Effective Time. From and after the Closing, if Buyer receives or collects any funds intended as payment of any Accounts Receivable, Buyer shall remit such funds to Sellers , and if Sellers receive or collect any funds intended as payment of any accounts receivable of Buyer, Sellers shall remit such funds to Buyer, in each case as promptly as practicable (but in any event within three (3) Business Days of the determination of the party to whom such funds belong).

(c) Payables. In the event that Buyer receives a valid invoice (as determined in accordance with past practices) for an account payable relating solely to a period ending prior to the Effective Time, Buyer will forward such invoice to Sellers and cooperate with Sellers in processing payment of such invoice from an account maintained by one of the Sellers or their Affiliates. In the event that Buyer receives a valid invoice (as determined in accordance with past practices) for an account payable relating to a period beginning prior to the Effective Time and ending after the Effective Time, Buyer will pay such invoice and Sellers will reimburse Buyer as promptly as practicable (but in any event within three (3) Business Days of payment of such invoice) for the portion of such invoice relating to the period prior to the Effective Time (as determined in accordance with Section 2.09). Any commission payments due to former employees of the Sellers with respect to the Accounts Receivable will be paid directly by Sellers.

All transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration, value added and other such Taxes and fees (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents (including any real property transfer Tax and any other similar Tax) shall be borne and paid by Sellers when due. Sellers shall, at their own expense, timely file any Tax Return or other document with respect to such Taxes or fees (and Buyer shall cooperate with respect thereto as necessary).

Section 6.15 Tax Clearance Certificates. If requested by Buyer, Sellers shall notify all of the taxing authorities in the jurisdictions that impose Taxes on Sellers or where any Seller has a duty to file Tax Returns of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in the form and manner required by such taxing authorities, if the failure to make such notifications or receive any available tax clearance certificate (a “Tax Clearance Certificate”) could subject Buyer to any Taxes of Sellers. If any taxing authority asserts that a Seller is liable for any Tax, such Seller shall promptly pay any and all such amounts and shall provide evidence to Buyer that such liabilities have been paid in full or otherwise satisfied.

Section 6.16 Trademark and Domain Name License. Effective upon the Closing, MMC and Sellers hereby grant to Buyer a non-exclusive, irrevocable, royalty free, fully paid up license to use the Trademarks and the domain names ▇▇▇.▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇.▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇ in the Territory solely in connection with Buyer’s conduct of the Business for a period of eighteen (18) months following the Closing Date.

to participate in, or by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party, to assume the defense of any Third Party Claim at the Indemnifying Party’s expense and by the Indemnifying Party’s own counsel, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate in good faith in such defense; provided, that if Sellers are the Indemnifying Party, such Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to defend or direct the defense of any such Third Party Claim that seeks an injunction or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party. In the event that the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third Party Claim, subject to Section 8.05(b), it shall have the right to take such action as it deems necessary to avoid, dispute, defend, appeal or make counterclaims pertaining to any such Third Party Claim in the name and on behalf of the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in the defense of any Third Party Claim with counsel selected by it subject to the Indemnifying Party’s right to control the defense thereof. The fees and disbursements of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party, provided, that if in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the Indemnified Party, (A) there are legal defenses available to an Indemnified Party that are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party; or (B) there exists a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party that cannot be waived, the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Indemnified Party in each jurisdiction for which the Indemnified Party determines counsel is required. If the Indemnifying Party elects not to compromise or defend such Third Party Claim, fails to promptly notify the Indemnified Party in writing of its election to defend as provided in this Agreement, or fails to diligently prosecute the defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party may, subject to Section 8.05(b), pay, compromise, defend such Third Party Claim and seek indemnification for any and all Losses based upon, arising from or relating to such Third Party Claim. Sellers and Buyer shall cooperate with each other in all reasonable respects in connection with the defense of any Third Party Claim, including making available (subject to the provisions of Section 6.06) records relating to such Third Party Claim and furnishing, without expense (other than reimbursement of actual out-of-pocket expenses) to the defending party, management employees of the non-defending party as may be reasonably necessary for the preparation of the defense of such Third Party Claim.

(b) Settlement of Third Party Claims. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall not enter into settlement of any Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, except as provided in this Section 8.05(b). If a firm offer is made to settle a Third Party Claim without leading to liability or the creation of a financial or other obligation on the part of the Indemnified Party and provides, in customary form, for the unconditional release of each Indemnified Party from all liabilities and obligations in connection with such Third Party Claim and the Indemnifying Party desires to accept and agree to such offer, the Indemnifying Party shall give written notice to that effect to the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnified Party fails to consent to such firm offer within twenty (20) days after its receipt of such notice, the Indemnified Party may continue to contest or defend such Third Party Claim and in such event, the maximum liability of the Indemnifying Party as to such Third Party Claim shall not exceed the amount of such settlement offer. If the Indemnified Party fails to consent to such firm offer and also fails to assume defense of such Third Party

Claim, the Indemnifying Party may settle the Third Party Claim upon the terms set forth in such firm offer to settle such Third Party Claim. If the Indemnified Party has assumed the defense pursuant to Section 8.05(a), it shall not agree to any settlement without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

(c) Direct Claims. Any Action by an Indemnified Party on account of a Loss which does not result from a Third Party Claim (a “Direct Claim”) shall be asserted by the Indemnified Party giving the Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice thereof, but in any event not later than thirty (30) days after the Indemnified Party becomes aware of such Direct Claim. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party forfeits rights or defenses by reason of such failure. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the Direct Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) days after its receipt of such notice to respond in writing to such Direct Claim. The Indemnified Party shall allow the Indemnifying Party and its professional advisors to investigate the matter or circumstance alleged to give rise to the Direct Claim, and whether and to what extent any amount is payable in respect of the Direct Claim and the Indemnified Party shall assist the Indemnifying Party’s investigation by giving such information and assistance (including access to the Indemnified Party’s premises and personnel and the right to examine and copy any accounts, documents or records) as the Indemnifying Party or any of its professional advisors may reasonably request. If the Indemnifying Party does not so respond within such twenty (20) day period, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have rejected such claim, in which case the Indemnified Party shall be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to the Indemnified Party on the terms and subject to the provisions of this Agreement.

Section 8.06 Payments. Once a Loss is agreed to by the Indemnifying Party or finally adjudicated to be payable pursuant to this Article VIII, the Indemnifying Party shall satisfy its obligations within ten (10) Business Days of such final, non-appealable adjudication by wire transfer of immediately available funds. The parties hereto agree that should an Indemnifying Party not make full payment of any such obligations within such ten (10) Business Day period, any amount payable shall accrue interest from and including the date of agreement of the Indemnifying Party or final, non-appealable adjudication to and including the date such payment has been made at a rate per annum equal to the Prime Rate as published from time to time in the “Money Rates” section of The Wall Street Journal. Such interest shall be calculated daily on the basis of a 365 day year and the actual number of days elapsed.

Section 8.07 Tax Treatment of Indemnification Payments. All indemnification payments made under this Agreement shall be treated by the parties as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Law.

Section 8.08 Effect of Investigation. The representations, warranties and covenants of the Indemnifying Party, and the Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification with respect thereto, shall not be affected or deemed waived by reason of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Party (including by any of its Representatives) or by reason of the fact that the Indemnified Party or any of its Representatives knew or should have known that any such representation or warranty is, was or might be inaccurate or by reason of the Indemnified Party’s waiver of any condition set forth in Section 7.02 or Section 7.03, as the case may be.

Section 8.09 Exclusive Remedies. Subject to Section 6.07 and Section 10.11, the parties acknowledge and agree that their sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all claims (other than claims arising from or relating to Fraud Matters on the part of a party hereto in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement, shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article VIII. In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted under Law, any and all rights, claims and causes of action for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement it may have against the other parties hereto and their Affiliates and each of their respective Representatives arising under or based upon any Law, except pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article VIII. Nothing in this Section 8.09 shall limit any Person’s right to seek and obtain any equitable relief to which any Person shall be entitled or to seek any remedy on account of any Fraud Matters.
