The Purchaser, on behalf of itself and its officers, directors and Equityholders (including after the Closing the Company and its Subsidiaries), expressly waives all rights afforded by any statute which limits the effect of a release with respect to unknown claims arising from or relating to event, circumstances or actions occurring, existing or taken prior to or as of the Closing Date in respect of matters relating, directly or indirectly, to the Company and its Subsidiaries, direct or indirect equity interests therein, or the assets, properties, liabilities, operations or activities thereof.

Section 6.4 Further Assurances. Following the Closing, (a) each of the Parties shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, execute and deliver such additional documents, instruments, conveyances and assurances, and take such further actions, as may be reasonably required to carry out the provisions hereof and give effect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (b) the Sellers shall provide documentation to which the Purchaser or the Company and its Subsidiaries do not have access solely to the extent such documentation relates to the preparation of the re-audit of the financial of statements of the Company and its Subsidiaries in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Auditing Standards.

Section 6.5 Directors and Officers; EPL Insurance; Cyber Insurance. The Company has obtained, as of the Closing, “tail” insurance policies with a claims period of six years from the Closing with at least the same coverage and amounts and containing terms and conditions that are substantially similar in the aggregate to the directors and officers, employment practices liability and cyber liability insurance of the Company and its Subsidiaries, in each case with respect to claims arising out of or relating to events which occurred before or at the Closing (the “Tail Policies”). The sole recourse of any Person who served as a director, manager or officer of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries prior to Closing shall be to the Tail Policies, and such Persons waive any right to indemnification or exoneration (including provisions relating to expense advancement) contained in the Governing Documents of the Company and its Subsidiaries as in effect prior to or after Closing.

Section 6.6 RWI Policy. The RWI Policy has been bound, at Purchaser’s expense, as of the date hereof, which is attached hereto as Exhibit F, and provides that the carrier thereunder waives, and agrees not to pursue, directly or indirectly, any subrogation rights or contribution rights or any other claims under this Agreement and the transactions contemplated herein against the any of the Sellers or any of their respective Affiliates, including any past or present shareholder, member, partner, stockholder, director, manager, officer or employee (or the functional equivalent of such position) of the Sellers, except in the case of Fraud (the “Subrogation Waiver Provision”). Neither the Purchaser nor any of its respective Affiliates shall amend, waive or otherwise modify the Subrogation Waiver Provision in a manner that is adverse to the Sellers or any of their respective Affiliates, including past or present shareholder, member, partner, stockholder, director, manager, officer or employee (or the functional equivalent of any such position). All retention amounts under the RWI Policy shall be borne by and the responsibility of the Purchaser.

Section 6.7 Books and Records. From and after the Closing Date, the Sellers, the Sellers Representative and their respective Representatives shall be entitled at all reasonable times to have access to and to be provided copies of the books and records and other information of the Company and its Subsidiaries, and access to management-level personnel of the Company and its Subsidiaries reasonably requested by such Persons, in each case, in connection with any proceeding related to the conduct of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries prior to the Closing to the extent necessary in order for the Sellers Representative or the Sellers to prepare any Tax Returns, amended Tax Returns or claim or refund for Taxes or in connection with the preparation and audit of financial statements, in each such case, on reasonable advance notice, during normal business hours of the Company and its Subsidiaries, and in a manner not unreasonably disruptive to the business of the Purchaser or its Affiliates, including the Company and its Subsidiaries and the Company and its Subsidiaries shall preserve all such books, records and other information until the expiration of any applicable statute of limitations with respect to any Flow-Through Tax Return filed by the Sellers, the Company or its Subsidiaries. Subject to the previous sentence, for a period of six years after the Closing Date, (a) neither the Purchaser nor Company or its Subsidiaries shall, and the Purchaser shall not permit its Affiliates to, destroy or otherwise dispose of any of the books, records or other information described in this Section 6.7, and (b) the Sellers shall not, and shall not permit their Affiliates to, destroy or otherwise dispose of any of the books, records or other information described in this Section 6.7; provided, however, at the conclusion of such six-year period, such Party or its Affiliates may destroy or otherwise dispose of such books, records or other information. Further, notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 6.7, while the existence of an adversarial proceeding between the Parties will not abrogate or suspend the provisions of this Section 6.7, as to such records or other information directly pertinent to such dispute, the Parties may not utilize this Section 6.7 but rather, absent agreement, must utilize the applicable rules of discovery. Further, notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 6.7, any Party may restrict the foregoing access to the extent that (i) such restriction is required by applicable Law, (ii) such access would result in a violation of confidentiality obligations to a third party or (iii) disclosure of any such information would result in the loss or waiver of the attorney-client privilege (provided that such Party and/or counsel for such Party shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to enter into such joint defense agreements or other arrangements, as appropriate, so as to allow for such disclosure in a manner that does not result in the loss of attorney-client privilege) (the “Access Principles”).

Section 6.8 Employee Matters.

(a) For purposes of eligibility to participate, and vesting under the health and welfare plans of the Purchaser or its Affiliates (including, following the Closing Date, the Company and its Subsidiaries) that provide benefits to employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries who are employed on the Closing Date (the “Continuing Employees”) after the Closing Date (the “New Plans”), to the extent such Continuing Employee is eligible to participate in any such New Plan, the Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to credit his or her years of service with the Company and its Subsidiaries (and any predecessor employers) before the Closing Date, to the same extent as such Continuing Employee was entitled, before the Closing Date, to credit for such services under the corresponding Plans in which such Continuing Employees participated immediately prior to the Closing Date, provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply with respect to benefit accrual or to the extent that is application would result in a duplication of benefits.

(b) Nothing contained in this Section 6.8 (whether express or implied) shall (i) create or confer any rights, remedies or claims upon any employee or other service provider of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any right of employment or engagement for any Continuing Employees or any other Person, (ii) be considered or deemed to establish, amend or modify any Plan, New Plan or any other benefit or compensation plan, program, policy, agreement, arrangement or contract or (iii) confer any rights or benefits (including any third-party beneficiary rights) on any Person other than the Parties.

Except with respect to the material terms and conditions of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, which the Purchaser shall disclose on a Current Report on Form 8-K within two Business Days of the Closing Date, the Purchaser covenants and agrees that neither it, nor any Person acting on its behalf, shall provide any Seller or such Seller’s Representatives, agents or counsel with any information that constitutes, or the Purchaser reasonably believes constitutes, material non-public information with respect to the Purchaser or the securities of the Purchaser, unless prior thereto such Seller shall have consented to the receipt of such information and agreed in writing with the Purchaser to keep such information confidential. The Purchaser understands that each Seller shall be relying on the foregoing covenant in effecting transactions in securities of the Purchaser. If the Purchaser delivers any material, non-public information to a Seller or such Seller’s representatives, agents or counsel (excluding representatives or agents employed by the Purchaser) without such Seller’s consent, then the Purchaser shall promptly file such information with the SEC pursuant to a Current Report on Form 8-K.

Section 6.10 ITAR Registration and Export Authorizations.

(a) After the Closing, the Sellers shall provide reasonable cooperation to the Purchaser’s efforts in the preparation and submission of (i) any required applications, amendments, and notices related to the Company’s Statement of Registration with DDTC in accordance with the ITAR (including the notification required under 22 C.F.R. 122.4(a)); and (ii) any requests to amend, transfer, or novate licenses, agreements, or other authorizations issued by DDTC or the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Bureau of Industry and Security that are required in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including by (x) providing all information and documentation reasonably requested by a Party, and (y) executing and delivering any documents reasonably required in connection therewith.

(b) No Party shall take any action or fail to take any action that would reasonably be expected to delay, impede, or adversely affect the preparation, submission, or processing of any filing or request contemplated by this Section 6.10.

Section 6.11 Facility Security Clearance and DCSA Notifications.

(a) The Sellers shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Purchaser’s preparation and submission of (i) any required notifications to the Defense Counterintelligence and Security Agency (“DCSA”) regarding the change of ownership and control of the Company contemplated by this Agreement, including any notification required under 32 C.F.R. Part 117 (the “NISPOM Rule”) relating to a change in conditions that may affect the validity of an existing facility security clearance (“FCL”); (ii) any amendments or updates to the Company’s DD Form 441 (Department of Defense Security Agreement), SF 328 (Certificate Pertaining to Foreign Interests), or other documentation required by DCSA in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; and (iii) any applications, filings, or submissions necessary to maintain, transfer, or obtain any FCL or personnel security clearances required for the continued performance of classified contracts following the Closing.

(b) The Sellers shall cooperate in good faith with the Purchaser’s interactions with DCSA and any other cognizant security agency to satisfy any requirements imposed in connection with the review and approval of the change of ownership and control, including providing all information and documentation reasonably requested by a Party or by DCSA in connection with government filings.

ARTICLE VII

Tax Matters

Section 7.1 Preparation of Tax Returns.

(a) The Sellers Representative shall prepare or cause to be prepared and file all Flow-Through Tax Returns (including any amendments thereto) relating to the Company and its Subsidiaries for taxable periods ending on or before the Closing Date (each such Tax Return, a “Seller Prepared Tax Return”). The Sellers Representative will cause the Company to make an election under Section 754 of the Code on the Company’s final Form 1065 for the Tax period ending on the Closing Date. The Sellers Representative shall provide the Purchaser with a copy of each completed Seller Prepared Tax Return at least 30 days prior to the due date (including any extension thereof) for filing of such Seller Prepared Tax Return, and the Purchaser shall have the right to review and comment on such Seller Prepared Tax Return prior to the filing of such Seller Prepared Tax Return, which comments the Sellers Representative will reasonably consider in good faith. Seller Prepared Tax Returns shall be prepared by treating items on such Tax Returns in a manner consistent with the past practices of the Company and its Subsidiaries or, if past practices are not in accordance with applicable Law, consistent with applicable Law. The Company and its Subsidiaries, as necessary, shall execute and file the Seller Prepared Tax Returns as prepared by Seller.

(b) The Purchaser shall prepare and file (or cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to prepare and file) all Tax Returns that relate to the Company or its Subsidiaries other than the Seller Prepared Tax Returns, including all Tax Returns that relate to the Company or its Subsidiaries for a Straddle Period (each such Tax Return, a “Purchaser Prepared Tax Return”). Purchaser Prepared Tax Returns shall be prepared in a manner consistent with the past practices of the Company and its Subsidiaries or, if past practices are not in accordance with applicable Law, consistent with applicable Law. To the extent Sellers have liability for the Taxes reflected on the Purchaser Prepared Returns, the Purchaser shall provide the Sellers with a copy of each completed Purchaser Prepared Tax Return at least 30 days (in the case of an Income Tax Return and a reasonable amount of time in the case of other Tax Returns) prior to the due date (including any extension thereof) for filing of such Purchaser Prepared Tax Returns, and the Sellers Representative shall have the right to approve each such Purchaser Prepared Tax Return prior to the filing of such Purchaser Prepared Tax Return, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, nor delayed.

Section 7.2 Tax Cooperation and Exchange of Information. The Sellers Representative and the Purchaser shall provide each other with such cooperation and information as either of them reasonably may request of the other (and the Purchaser shall cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to provide such cooperation and information) in filing any Tax Return, amended Tax Return or claim for refund, determining a liability for Taxes or a right to a refund of Taxes or participating in or conducting any audit or other proceeding in respect of Taxes. Such cooperation and information shall include providing copies of relevant Tax Returns or portions thereof, together with related work papers and documents relating to rulings or other determinations by Taxing authorities. The Sellers Representative and the Purchaser shall make themselves (and their respective employees) reasonably available on a mutually convenient basis to provide explanations of any documents or information provided under this Section 7.2. Each of the Sellers Representative and the Purchaser shall retain all Tax Returns, work papers and all material records or other documents in its possession (or in the possession of its Affiliates) relating to Tax Matters of the Company or its Subsidiaries for any taxable period that includes the date of the Closing and for the shorter of (i) six years following the due date (without extension) for such Tax Returns and (ii) the expiration of the statute of limitations relating to the underlying Taxes with respect to such Tax Returns. The requesting party shall indemnify the other party for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred by such party in connection with providing any information or documentation pursuant to this Section 7.2. Any information obtained under this Section 7.2 shall be kept confidential, except as may be otherwise necessary in connection with the filing of Tax Returns or claims for refund or in conducting an audit or other proceeding.

Section 7.3 Tax Proceedings. If any Governmental Authority issues to the Company or any Subsidiary a written notice of any inquiries, claims, assessments, audits or similar events with respect to a Seller Prepared Tax Return (any such inquiry, claim, assessment, audit or similar event, a “Tax Matter”), the Company shall promptly notify the Sellers Representative of such communication (in any event, within ten days of receipt). The Purchaser and the Sellers agree that Matter 4 shall not be treated as a Tax Matter for purposes of this Section 7.3, and that the procedures for handling Matter 4 are governed by Section 8.3 of this Agreement. The Company shall control the conduct of any Tax Matter, including any settlement or compromise thereof; provided, however, that (a) the Sellers Representative, at such Sellers Representative’ cost and expense, shall have the right to elect to control or participate in any such Tax Matter to the extent it relates to a Tax period ending on or prior to the Closing Date and such Tax Matter relates in whole or in part to a Flow-Through Tax Return, (b) the Sellers Representative, at such Sellers Representative’ cost and expense, shall have the right to participate in any such Tax Matter to the extent it relates to a Straddle Period, and (c) the Company shall not settle or otherwise resolve any Tax Matter without obtaining the prior written consent of the Sellers Representative and the Purchaser, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If the Sellers Representative assume control of a Tax Matter, (i) the Purchaser, at its own expense, shall have the right to participate in such Tax Matter, and (ii) the Sellers Representative shall not allow the Company to settle or otherwise resolve any such Tax Matter without obtaining the prior written consent of the Purchaser, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Notwithstanding anything in the Governing Documents of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to the contrary, in the event that such Tax Contest results in an “imputed underpayment” within the meaning of Section 6225 of the Code, to the maximum extent permitted by Law, the Company shall make the election under Section 6226 of the Code in accordance with the Partnership Audit Provisions or any similar state, local, or foreign Law and take any other action such as filings, disclosures and notifications necessary to effectuate such election. Sellers Representative and Purchaser shall, and shall cause the Company to, cooperate fully with Representative in connection with making any push-out election under Section 6226 of the Code, including by causing the “partnership representative” and “designated individual” (as those terms are used in Section 6223 of the Code and Treasury Regulation Section 301.6223-1(b)(3) (or any similar provision of law)) of the Company to take all necessary actions to make the push-out election, and the preparation of any statements or other information required to be provided to the IRS or any other Person as required by Section 6226 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder (and any corresponding rules under applicable state and local Law). If the Representative does not provide evidence to Purchaser of a proper push-out election, Purchaser shall have the right to (x) cause the Company to make a push-out election and (y) revoke any prior “partnership representative” (and “designated individual”) and appoint a replacement “partnership representative” (or “designated individual”) for the purposes of timely making such push-out election.

Section 7.4 Conveyance Taxes. The Sellers agree to pay fifty percent (50%) of any and all Conveyance Taxes, and the Purchaser agrees to pay fifty percent (50%) of any and all Conveyance Taxes, in each case that may be imposed upon, or payable or collectible or incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. The Purchaser and the Sellers agree to cooperate in the execution and delivery of all instruments and certificates necessary to enable the Purchaser to comply with any pre-Closing filing requirements, and the Purchaser and the Sellers shall reimburse each other for their portion of any Conveyance Taxes paid by the other Party.

Section 7.5 Miscellaneous.

(a) For Income Tax purposes, the Parties agree to treat all payments under any other indemnity provisions contained in ARTICLE VIII as adjustments to the Consideration, unless otherwise required by a (i) change in law occurring after the date hereof, (ii) closing agreement with an applicable Taxing authority, or (iii) final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

(b) For purposes of this ARTICLE VII, all references to the Purchaser, the Sellers, Affiliates, the Company and its Subsidiaries include successors and assigns.

(c) Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, the covenants and agreements of the Parties contained in this ARTICLE VII shall survive the Closing and shall remain in full force in accordance with their terms.

(d) The Sellers shall terminate or cause to be terminated any and all of the Tax sharing, allocation, indemnification or similar agreements, arrangements or undertakings in effect, written or unwritten, on the Closing Date as between the Sellers or any predecessor or Affiliate thereof, on the one hand, and the Company and its Subsidiaries, on the other hand, for all Taxes imposed by any government or Taxing authority, regardless of the period in which such Taxes are imposed, and there shall be no continuing obligation to make any payments under any such agreements, arrangements or undertakings.

Section 7.6 Miscellaneous. Except as otherwise required under applicable Law, following the Closing, neither the Purchaser nor the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries will (and neither the Purchaser nor the Company will allow any of its Affiliates to), in each case solely to the extent such action would reasonably be expected to reduce the Consideration payable to the Sellers or give rise to any Tax liability to the Sellers: (a) file, amend or revoke any Tax Return or Tax election for the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that has effect in any Pre-Closing Period or Straddle Period, (b) surrender any right to claim a refund of Taxes relating to the Company relating to any Pre-Closing Period or Straddle Period, (c) adopt or change any method of accounting that has effect in a Pre-Closing Period or Straddle Period, (d) take any action on the Closing Date after the Closing other than in the Ordinary Course of Business except as contemplated by this Agreement or the other transaction documents that could give rise to any Tax liability or reduce any Tax attribute of the Sellers or any of their Affiliates, or (e) file a voluntary disclosure with respect to a Pre-Closing Period or Straddle Period prior to the final determination of the Consideration pursuant to Section 2.7, in each case, without the prior written consent of the Sellers, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned nor delayed.

ARTICLE VIII

Indemnification

Section 8.1 Survival. None of the representations or warranties of the Parties hereto contained in this Agreement will survive the Closing except for the purposes of claims for Fraud, and no Party shall have any liability after the Closing with respect thereto except in the case of Fraud. The Purchaser’s sole recourse for any breaches of the representations and warranties of the Sellers set forth in ARTICLE III and ARTICLE IV shall be the RWI Policy, other than in the case of Fraud. All covenants and agreements contained herein shall survive in accordance with their terms, and if no term is specified, until fully performed.

Section 8.2 Indemnification for Matter 1, Matter 2, Matter 3 and Matter 4. Subject to the other provisions of this ARTICLE VIII including, without limitation, the limitations set forth in Section 8.4, from and after the Closing Date, the Purchaser, the Company, and their respective Subsidiaries, Affiliates and its and their respective Representatives (each, an “Indemnified Party”) shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Sellers (the “Indemnifying Parties”), jointly and severally, for and against any and all direct or indirect Losses arising out of, related to or resulting from the matters described in Section 8.2 of the Seller Disclosure Schedule (the “Indemnified Claims”).

Section 8.3 Procedures. Claims for indemnification under this Agreement shall only be asserted and resolved as follows:

(a) Any Indemnified Party claiming indemnification under this Agreement with respect to any Indemnified Claim shall (i) promptly (but no later than 30 days after incurrence) notify the Sellers Representative of any Losses incurred in connection with such Indemnified Claim (provided, that the failure to so notify shall not relieve the Indemnifying Parties of their obligations hereunder, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Parties are actually and materially prejudiced thereby) and (ii) transmit to the Indemnifying Party reasonable documentation evidencing such Losses. At the reasonable request of the Indemnifying Party, each Indemnified Party shall grant the Indemnifying Party and its Representatives all reasonable access to the books, records, employees and properties of such Indemnified Party to the extent reasonably related to the matters to which the applicable Indemnified Claim relates. All such access shall be subject to the Access Principles and shall be granted during normal business hours and shall be granted under the conditions, which shall not unreasonably interfere with the business and operations of such Indemnified Party.

(b) Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 8.4, after Final Resolution of any indemnification obligation of the Sellers to the Indemnified Parties pursuant to this ARTICLE VIII, such indemnification obligation shall first be satisfied by payment from the Indemnity Escrow Funds until the Indemnity Escrow Funds are exhausted or released in the case of indemnification pursuant to Section 8.2 and, in the event the Indemnity Escrow Funds are less than amount of the Losses specified in any Claim Certificate (the “Indemnity Shortfall”), notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, at the election of the Sellers Representative, each Seller shall and shall cause its Affiliates to (i) deliver to the Purchaser a cash amount by wire transfer in immediately available funds to an account designated by the Purchaser equal to such Seller’s respective Incremental Pro Rata Portion of the Indemnity Shortfall or (ii) (A) deliver to the Purchaser and forfeit for no consideration that number of Locked-Up Shares or (B) forfeit for no consideration its right to receive that number of Deferred Locked-Up Shares yet to be issued pursuant to Section 2.9, in each case having an aggregate value equal to such Seller’s respective Incremental Pro Rata Portion of the Indemnity Shortfall, with the number of such Locked-Up Shares or Deferred Locked-Up Shares, as applicable, determined by dividing (x) such Seller’s respective Incremental Pro Rata Portion of the Indemnity Shortfall by (y) the price per share of the Purchaser Common Stock on the trading day immediately preceding the date on which such Seller elects to satisfy its obligation in accordance with this Section 8.3(b)(ii). To the extent any indemnification payment pursuant to this ARTICLE VIII is to be satisfied, in whole or in part, from the Indemnity Escrow Funds, each of the Sellers Representative and the Purchaser shall execute and deliver to the Escrow Agent a joint written instruction in accordance with the provisions of the Escrow Agreement authorizing and directing the Escrow Agent to make such payment.

(c) Except as otherwise set forth in this Section 8.3(c), the Sellers Representative shall, at its sole expense, control and conduct the defense (with the reasonable assistance and cooperation of the Company and its Subsidiaries) of each Indemnified Claim from and after Closing; provided, however, that, (i) the Sellers Representative shall keep the Purchaser ‎reasonably informed regarding the status of each Indemnified Claim, (ii) the Sellers Representative shall provide the Purchaser, and the Purchaser shall provide the Sellers Representative, with copies of all material correspondences, written ‎notices and other material written materials received with respect to each Indemnified Claim, (iii) the Purchaser shall be given an opportunity, at its own cost and expense (which cost and expense, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not constitute a Loss suffered by the Purchaser for purposes of this Agreement), to review and comment on any material submissions to a Governmental Authority made in connection with any Indemnified Claim and the Sellers Representative shall consider in good faith any such comments of the Purchaser, and (iv) the Sellers Representative shall not agree to the entry of any judgement or enter into any settlement or compromise with respect to any Indemnified Claim without the prior written consent of the Purchaser (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) unless, in connection with such settlement or compromise, (A) Indemnifying Party is obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Party for all amounts required by, and all other Losses in connection with, such judgment, settlement or compromise pursuant to this ARTICLE VIII, (ii) such settlement or compromise does not impose any consent order, injunction or decree that would restrict the future operation or conduct of the business of the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates or any other material non-monetary condition or obligation on the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates and (iii) such settlement or compromise provides for a complete and unconditional release of the claims that are the subject of, and all Liability relating to, the applicable claim in favor of the Indemnified Party with no finding or admission of a violation of Law. The Sellers Representative shall not be required to indemnify any Indemnified Party for any expenses or fees of counsel retained by any Indemnified Party with respect to any defense by such Indemnified Party of any Indemnified Claim, unless such Indemnified Party has been advised by outside counsel that representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them and, in such event, the applicable Indemnified Party may retain one separate counsel approved in writing by the Purchaser in its reasonable discretion. In the event such a conflict exists and such Indemnified Party retains independent counsel in accordance with the foregoing sentence, the Sellers Representative shall be liable for the reasonable expenses and fees of one separate counsel (in addition to one local counsel) for the Indemnified Party. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if the Company or any of its Subsidiaries has engaged counsel, accountants or any other third-party advisors prior to Closing that the Sellers Representative desires to utilize to control any Indemnified Claim, then the Company or its applicable Subsidiary shall, at the Sellers Representative’s direction, continue such engagement for the benefit of the Sellers and the Company or such Subsidiary shall invoice the Sellers Representative for such engagement on a monthly basis (unless otherwise agreed between the Sellers Representative and the Company or applicable Subsidiary).

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (1) the Indemnifying Party fails at any time to be reasonably diligent in the defense of any Indemnified Claim as determined in good faith by the Indemnified Party after consultation with the Indemnifying Party and providing the Indemnifying Party a reasonable opportunity to cure, (2) the Indemnified Party has been advised in a written opinion by outside counsel that a reasonable likelihood exists of a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party due to actual or potential differing interests between them, (3) an Indemnified Claim involves criminal allegations or any attempt to impose any criminal penalty, fine or other sanction on the Indemnified Party, (4) an Indemnified Claim relates to or arises in connection with any criminal proceeding, action, indictment, allegation or investigation, (5) an adverse determination with respect to the action, lawsuit, investigation, proceeding or other claim giving rise to an Indemnified Claim would materially injure the Indemnified Party’s reputation or future business prospects, (6) the applicable claimant seeks an injunction or equitable relief against an Indemnified Party as its primary source of recovery, or (7) an Indemnified Claim would likely give rise to Losses which are more than the Cap, then, the Sellers Representative shall, at the request of the Indemnified Party, immediately cease the conduct of the defense of the applicable Indemnified Claim and the Indemnified Party may conduct the defense of any such matter with one counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnifying Party; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party will not agree to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or compromise with respect to such matter without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) unless the Indemnified Party waives its right to indemnification hereunder in respect of such matter.

Section 8.4 Calculation of Losses. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement:

(a) The Sellers shall not be liable under Section 8.2 for Losses in excess of the Cap, except in the case of Fraud. In the case of Fraud, the Sellers shall not be liable under Section 8.2 for Losses in excess of the aggregate value of the Consideration (as calculated as of the Closing Date and it being understood that, for the purposes of such calculation, the value of the Aggregate Closing Immediate Shares and the Aggregate Deferred Locked-Up Shares shall be calculated using the closing price per share of the Purchaser Common Stock as reported on Bloomberg on the day prior to the Closing).

(b) Each Indemnified Party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate any Losses for which it is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this ARTICLE VIII.

(c) The amount of any Losses for which an Indemnified Party claims indemnification under this Agreement shall be reduced by (i) any insurance proceeds actually recovered with respect to such Losses (net of the deductible for such insurance policy and any increase in the premium for such policies arising out of or in connection with such Losses) and (ii) all other amounts recovered from a third party pursuant to contribution or otherwise in respect of such Losses, in each case, net of out-of-pocket costs and expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Party. Without limiting the foregoing, an Indemnified Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to recover under applicable insurance policies then in place and contribution or other similar agreements then in place for any Losses for which an Indemnifying Party would otherwise be responsible. To the extent that an Indemnifying Party indemnifies an Indemnified Party and the Indemnified Party thereafter receives such insurance proceeds or contribution or other similar payments from a third party as a result of any Losses, the Indemnified Party shall promptly reimburse the Indemnifying Party for the amounts previously paid by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party in connection with such Losses (net of the deductible for such insurance policy, any increase in the premium for such policies arising out of or in connection with such Losses and any out-of-pocket costs and expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Party).

(d) In the event an Indemnified Party shall recover in respect of a claim of indemnification under this ARTICLE VIII no other Indemnified Party shall be entitled to recover the same Losses in respect of a claim for indemnification.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein (except to the extent actually paid in connection with any Indemnified Claim), no Indemnifying Party shall be liable for any punitive or exemplary Losses, whether based on contract, tort, strict liability, other Law or otherwise, and whether or not arising from any other party’s sole, joint or concurrent negligence, strict liability or other fault.

Section 8.5 Tax Treatment of Indemnification Payments. For applicable income Tax purposes, the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall treat indemnification payments made pursuant to this ARTICLE VIII as adjustments to the Consideration.

Section 8.6 Exclusive Remedy. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary and except with respect to Fraud, the Purchaser, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, acknowledges and agrees that the sole and exclusive remedy of the Purchaser and their Affiliates for any claim related to, arising under or in connection with a breach of any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement shall be against the RWI Policy. None of the Sellers or any of their Affiliates shall have any direct or indirect liability of any kind or nature in connection with the RWI Policy or to the insurer thereunder, except in the case of Fraud. The provisions of this Section 8.6 shall still apply (a) if the RWI Policy is never issued by the insurer, (b) if the RWI Policy is revoked, cancelled or modified by the insurer. Notwithstanding the forgoing, nothing in this ARTICLE VIII limits, restricts or prevents any claims for injunctive relief, specific performance or equitable remedies permitted by this Agreement.

Section 8.7 Release of Indemnity Escrow Funds.

(a) The Indemnity Escrow Funds will be held by the Escrow Agent in escrow subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement until the release of the Indemnity Escrow Funds in accordance with this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement, as applicable.

(b) On the date that is five Business Days after a Final Resolution with respect to Matter 1 (the “Matter 1 Release Date”), the Purchaser and the Sellers Representative shall jointly instruct the Escrow Agent to, and the Escrow Agent shall, disburse to the Sellers Representative (for further distribution, as applicable, to the Sellers) an amount (not to be less than zero) equal to (i) the Matter 1 Indemnity Escrow Amount less (ii) any amounts disbursed to (or for the account of) an Indemnified Party to satisfy indemnification obligations of the Sellers with respect to Matter 1 pursuant to Section 8.2.

(c) On the date that is five Business Days after a Final Resolution with respect to Matter 2 (the “Matter 2 Release Date”), the Purchaser and the Sellers Representative shall jointly instruct the Escrow Agent to, and the Escrow Agent shall, disburse to the Sellers Representative (for further distribution, as applicable, to the Sellers) an amount (not to be less than zero) equal to (i) the Matter 2 Indemnity Escrow Amount less (ii) any amounts disbursed to (or for the account of) an Indemnified Party to satisfy indemnification obligations of the Sellers with respect to Matter 2 pursuant to Section 8.2.

(d) On the date that is five Business Days after a Final Resolution with respect to Matter 3 (the “Matter 3 Release Date”), the Purchaser and the Sellers Representative shall jointly instruct the Escrow Agent to, and the Escrow Agent shall, disburse to the Sellers Representative (for further distribution, as applicable, to the Sellers) an amount (not to be less than zero) equal to (i) the Matter 3 Indemnity Escrow Amount less (ii) any amounts disbursed to (or for the account of) an Indemnified Party to satisfy indemnification obligations of the Sellers with respect to Matter 3 pursuant to Section 8.2.

(e) On the date that is five Business Days after a Final Resolution with respect to Matter 4 (the “Matter 4 Release Date”), the Purchaser and the Sellers Representative shall jointly instruct the Escrow Agent to, and the Escrow Agent shall, disburse to the Sellers Representative (for further distribution, as applicable, to the Sellers) an amount (not to be less than zero) equal to (i) the Matter 4 Indemnity Escrow Amount less (ii) any amounts disbursed to (or for the account of) an Indemnified Party to satisfy indemnification obligations of the Sellers with respect to Matter 4 pursuant to Section 8.2.

Section 8.8 Seller’s Waiver. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no Seller shall exercise or assert, any right of contribution or right to indemnity or any other right or remedy against the Company or any of its Affiliates in connection with any indemnification obligation or any other Liability to which a Seller may become subject under this Agreement or otherwise in connection with any of the transactions contemplated herein.

Section 8.9 Stock Maintenance; Equity Backstop.

(a) From and after the Closing Date until the Sellers’ obligations under Section 2.7(d)(i), Section 8.2 and Section 8.3 have been satisfied in full (the “Equity Backstop Period”), collectively the Sellers and their Affiliates shall, at their option, (i) maintain beneficial ownership (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) free and clear of all Encumbrances (other than Encumbrances arising under applicable securities Laws) of Purchaser Common Stock having an aggregate market value equal to the Cap (the “Minimum Equity Threshold”) or (ii) deposit, or cause to be deposited, an amount in cash equal to the Cap in an account controlled by the Sellers Representative (the “Backstop Account”), which Minimum Equity Threshold or Backstop Account shall be held for the benefit of the Indemnified Parties as security for the Sellers’ obligations under Section 2.7(d)(i) and this ARTICLE VIII. For purposes of this Section 8.9(a), the market value of the Purchaser Common Stock supporting the Minimum Equity Threshold shall be determined as of the close of trading on the last trading day of each calendar quarter during the Equity Backstop Period, based on the closing price of Purchaser Common Stock as reported on Bloomberg on such date. The Sellers Representative shall, promptly upon the reasonable request of the Purchaser (but not more frequently than once per calendar quarter), deliver to the Purchaser a written certification setting forth the number of shares of Purchaser Common Stock beneficially owned by the Sellers and their respective Affiliates as of a recent date and/or the amount of cash held in the Backstop Account and such other information as the Purchaser may reasonably request to verify compliance with this Section 8.9.

(b) In the event the Sellers choose to maintain an amount in cash equal to the Cap in the Backstop Account, upon the Final Resolution of all Indemnified Claims, any remaining amounts in the Backstop Account shall be promptly released to the Sellers, free and clear of any further restrictions.

Section 9.3 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any Law or public policy, all other terms and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect for so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any Party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.

Section 9.4 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the Seller Disclosure Schedule, the Purchaser Disclosure Schedule and the Exhibits) and the Ancillary Agreements constitute the entire agreement of the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede all prior agreements and undertakings, both written and oral, among the Sellers, the Company and the Purchaser with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof.

Section 9.5 Assignment. This Agreement may not be assigned by operation of law or otherwise without the express written consent of the Sellers Representative and the Purchaser (which consent may be granted or withheld in the sole discretion of the Sellers Representative or the Purchaser), as the case may be; provided, that the Purchaser may, without the consent of any other Party, assign its rights, interests and obligations hereunder (a) to any of its Affiliates, (b) in connection with the transfer by the Purchaser of all or substantially all of the Units and/or assets of the Company to one or more third parties or (c) as collateral to any financial or lending institution providing financing to the Purchaser in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, in each case provided that (i) the Purchaser provides prompt written notice to the Sellers Representative and (ii) the Purchaser remains ultimately liable for all of the obligations of the Purchaser hereunder.

Section 9.6 Amendment. This Agreement may not be amended or modified except (a) by an instrument in writing signed by, or on behalf of, the Sellers Representative and the Purchaser or (b) by a waiver in accordance with Section 9.7.

Section 9.7 Waiver. The Parties may (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other Party, (b) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties of the other Party contained herein or in any document delivered by the other Party pursuant hereto or (c) waive compliance with any of the agreements of the other Party or conditions to such Party’s obligations contained herein. Any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed by the Party to be bound thereby. Any waiver of any term or condition shall not be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach or a subsequent waiver of the same term or condition, or a waiver of any other term or condition of this Agreement. The failure of any Party to assert any of its rights hereunder shall not constitute a waiver of any of such rights.

Section 9.8 Rights of Third Parties. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement (including as set forth in Section 6.3, Section 6.6, ARTICLE VIII, Section 9.10 and Section 9.11), nothing herein, express or implied, is intended or shall be construed to confer upon or give to any Person, other than the Parties and their respective permitted successors and assigns, any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement, such third parties (specifically including employees or creditors of the Company and its Subsidiaries).

Section 9.9 Disclosure Schedules.

(a) The Sellers have set forth certain information in the Seller Disclosure Schedule in a section thereof that corresponds to the Section or portion of a Section of this Agreement to which it relates. A matter set forth in one section of the Seller Disclosure Schedule need not be set forth in any other section of such Seller Disclosure Schedule so long as its relevance to such other section of the Seller Disclosure Schedule or Section of this Agreement is readily apparent on the face of the information disclosed in the Seller Disclosure Schedule. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the provision of monetary or other quantitative thresholds for disclosure on the Seller Disclosure Schedule does not and shall not be deemed to create or imply a standard of materiality hereunder.

(b) Purchaser has set forth certain information in the Purchaser Disclosure Schedule in a section thereof that corresponds to the Section or portion of a Section of this Agreement to which it relates. A matter set forth in one section of the Purchaser Disclosure Schedule need not be set forth in any other section of the Purchaser Disclosure Schedule so long as its relevance to such other section of the Purchaser Disclosure Schedule or Section of this Agreement is readily apparent on the face of the information disclosed in the Purchaser Disclosure Schedule. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the provision of monetary or other quantitative thresholds for disclosure on the Purchaser Disclosure Schedule does not and shall not be deemed to create or imply a standard of materiality hereunder.

(c) Nothing in the Seller Disclosure Schedule or Purchaser Disclosure Schedule shall broaden the scope of any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement. The disclosure or inclusion of any matter in the Seller Disclosure Schedule or Purchaser Disclosure Schedule shall not be deemed to constitute an acknowledgment or admission that the matter is required to be disclosed by the terms of this Agreement. Any item of information, matter or document disclosed or referenced in, or attached to, the Seller Disclosure Schedule or Purchaser Disclosure Schedule shall not (i) be used as a basis for interpreting the terms “material” or other similar terms in the Agreement or to establish a standard of materiality, (ii) be deemed to expand the scope of any obligation, covenant, condition or agreement contained in this Agreement, (iii) constitute, or deemed to constitute, an admission to any third party (other than the Parties) that such agreement or document is enforceable or currently in effect or that there are any obligations remaining to be performed or any rights that may be exercised under such agreement or document, or (iv) represent an admission to any third party that the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby requires the consent of any third party. No disclosure in the Seller Disclosure Schedule or Purchaser Disclosure Schedule relating to any possible breach or violation of any Contract or Law shall be construed as an admission to any third party (other than the Parties) that any such breach or violation exists or has already occurred.

Section 9.10 Non-Recourse. This Agreement may only be enforced against, and any claim or cause of action based upon, arising out of or related to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement, or the transactions contemplated hereby (including any representation or warranty made in, in connection with, or as an inducement to this Agreement) may only be brought against, the entities that are expressly named as parties hereto (or their successors or permitted assigns) and then only with respect to the specific obligations set forth herein with respect to such named party or a third party beneficiary pursuant to Section 9.8. Except to the extent a named party to this Agreement or a third party beneficiary pursuant to Section 9.8 (and then only to the extent of the specific obligations of such party set forth in this Agreement and not otherwise), no past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, stockholder, Affiliate, agent, attorney, advisor or other Representative of any party hereto, or Affiliate of any of the foregoing, shall have any Liability (whether in contract, tort, equity or otherwise) with respect to this Agreement, or for any one or more of the representations, warranties, covenants, agreements or other obligations or Liabilities of any party hereto under this Agreement (whether for indemnification or otherwise), or with respect to any actual or alleged inaccuracies, misstatements or omissions with respect to information furnished by or on behalf of the Company and its Subsidiaries or the Sellers concerning the Company and its Subsidiaries (including with respect to the operation of their business prior to the Closing or any other transaction, circumstance or state of facts involving the Company and its Subsidiaries prior to the Closing), or of or for any claim based on, arising out of or related to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement, or the transactions contemplated hereby (including any representation or warranty made in, in connection with, or as an inducement to this Agreement). Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 9.10 shall limit or restrict any claim or remedy based on or arising out of Fraud.

Section 9.11 Legal Representation.

(a) The Purchaser hereby acknowledges that the Company and its Subsidiaries, the Sellers Representative and the Sellers have been represented by Baker & McKenzie LLP in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated herein and that Baker & McKenzie LLP has received Confidential Material in connection with such representation. The Company, on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries, and the Purchaser hereby (i) acknowledge and agree that, notwithstanding Baker & McKenzie LLP’s prior representation of the Company and its Subsidiaries, the Sellers Representative and the Sellers, and Baker & McKenzie LLP’s receipt of Confidential Material, Baker & McKenzie LLP may continue to represent the Sellers Representative and the Sellers after the Closing in connection with matters arising out of or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated herein including in connection with any indemnification claim or other litigation matter arising hereunder which may or may not be adverse to the Company and its Subsidiaries, (ii) waive and consent to the communication and disclosure by Baker & McKenzie LLP to the Sellers Representative and the Sellers in connection with any such representation of any fact known to, or document in the possession of, Baker & McKenzie LLP arising by reason of Baker & McKenzie LLP’s prior representation of the Company and its Subsidiaries, the Sellers Representative and the Sellers, (iii) waive any claim they have or may have that Baker & McKenzie LLP has a conflict of interest or is otherwise prohibited from engaging in such representation and (iv) irrevocably assign to the Sellers Representative and the Sellers, effective as of the Closing, all attorney-client privileges with respect to Baker & McKenzie LLP’s prior representation of the Company and its Subsidiaries, the Sellers Representative and the Sellers.

(b) The Purchaser and the Company, on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries, agree that, as to all communications subject to attorney-client privilege among Baker & McKenzie LLP and the Sellers, the Sellers Representative and/or the Company and its Subsidiaries that relate in any way to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Protected Seller Communications”), the attorney-client privilege and the expectation of client confidence belongs to the Sellers and the Sellers Representative, and may be controlled by the Sellers and the Sellers Representative, and shall not pass to or be claimed by the Purchaser and the Company and its Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a dispute arises among the Purchaser, the Company and its Subsidiaries and a third party other than a Party to this Agreement after the Closing, the Company and its Subsidiaries may assert the attorney-client privilege to prevent disclosure of confidential communications by Baker & McKenzie LLP to such third party; provided, however, that neither the Company or its Subsidiaries nor the Purchaser may waive such privilege without the prior written consent of the Sellers Representative except if requested to do so by a Governmental Authority. To the extent the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (including the Company and its Subsidiaries) should discover in its possession after the Closing any Protected Seller Communications, it shall take reasonable steps to preserve the confidentiality thereof and promptly deliver the same to the Sellers Representative, keeping no copies, and shall not by reason thereof assert any loss of confidentiality or privilege protection.

Section 9.12 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware. All Actions arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be heard and determined exclusively in Delaware Chancery Court; provided, however, that if such Chancery Court does not have jurisdiction over such Action, such Action shall be heard and determined exclusively in any Delaware state or federal court. Consistent with the preceding sentence, the Parties hereby (a) submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of any federal or state court sitting in the State of Delaware for the purpose of any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement brought by any Party and (b) 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 the transactions contemplated by this Agreement may not be enforced in or by any of the above-named courts.

Section 9.13 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT. EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF THE OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT, AS APPLICABLE, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS Section 9.13.

Section 9.14 Specific Performance. The Parties agree that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, may not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that the Parties do not perform their obligations under the provisions of this Agreement in accordance with its terms. The Parties acknowledge and agree that (a) the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction, specific performance, or other equitable relief, to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, without proof of damages and without posting a bond, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled under this Agreement, (b) the right of injunction, specific enforcement or other equitable relief is an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and without that right, none of the Parties would have entered into this Agreement and (c) no Party will oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief on the basis that the other parties have an adequate remedy at Law.

Section 9.15 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed and delivered (including by facsimile transmission) in one or more counterparts, and by the different Parties in separate counterparts, each of which when executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties have caused this Agreement to be executed as of the date first written above by their respective officers thereunto duly authorized.

All disbursements of Escrow Funds will be subject to the fees and claims of Escrow Agent and the Indemnified Parties pursuant to Section 11 and Section 12.

(c) Buyer and Representative may each deliver written notice to Escrow Agent in accordance with Section 16 changing their respective funds transfer instructions, which notice will be effective only upon receipt by Escrow Agent and after Escrow Agent has had reasonable time to act upon such notice.

(d) The Escrow Funds shall be held as escrow funds and shall not be subject to any lien, attachment, trustee process or any other judicial process of any creditor of any party hereto. Escrow Agent shall not distribute or release any Escrow Funds except in accordance with the express terms and conditions of this Agreement.

(e) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, upon receipt of a Final Order, Escrow Agent is authorized and directed to disburse Escrow Funds pursuant to such Final Order on the fifth (5^th) Business Day following receipt thereof. Escrow Agent will act on such Final Order without further inquiry.

5. Suspension of Performance; Disbursement into Court. If, at any time, (a) a dispute exists with respect to any obligation of Escrow Agent under this Agreement, (b) Escrow Agent is unable to determine, to Escrow Agent’s sole satisfaction, Escrow Agent’s proper actions with respect to its obligations hereunder, or (c) Buyer and Representative have not, within 10 days of receipt of a notice of resignation, appointed a successor escrow agent to act under this Agreement, then Escrow Agent may, in its sole discretion, take either or both of the following actions:

(i) suspend the performance of any of its obligations (including without limitation any disbursement obligations) under this Agreement until such dispute or uncertainty is resolved to the sole satisfaction of Escrow Agent or until a successor escrow agent is appointed; or

(ii) petition (by means of an interpleader action or any other appropriate method) any court of competent jurisdiction, in any venue convenient to Escrow Agent, for instructions with respect to such dispute or uncertainty and, to the extent required or permitted by law, pay into such court, for holding and disposition by such court, all Escrow Funds, after deduction and payment to Escrow Agent of all fees and expenses (including court costs and attorneys’ fees) payable to, incurred by, or expected to be incurred by Escrow Agent in connection with the performance of its duties and the exercise of its rights hereunder.

Escrow Agent will have no liability to Buyer or Representative for any such suspension of performance or disbursement into court in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, specifically including any liability or claimed liability that may arise due to any delay in any other action required or requested of Escrow Agent.

6. Investment of Funds. Based upon Buyer’s and Representative’s prior review of investment alternatives, in the absence of further specific written direction to the contrary at any time that an investment decision must be made, Escrow Agent is directed to invest and reinvest the Escrow Funds in the investment identified in Schedule A. If applicable, Buyer and Representative acknowledge receipt from Escrow Agent of a current copy of the prospectus for the investment identified in Schedule A. Buyer and Representative may deliver to Escrow Agent a Joint Written Direction changing the investment of the Escrow Funds, upon which direction Escrow Agent may conclusively rely without inquiry or investigation; provided, however, that Buyer and Representative warrant that no investment or reinvestment direction will be given except in the following: (a) direct obligations of the United States of America or obligations the principal of and the interest on which are unconditionally guaranteed by the United States of America; (b) U.S. dollar denominated deposit accounts and certificates of deposit issued by any domestic bank, bank and trust company, or national banking association (including Escrow Agent and its affiliates), which are either (i) insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to FDIC limits, or (ii) with domestic commercial banks which have a rating on their short-term deposits on the date of purchase of at least “A-1” by S&P or “P-1” by Moody’s (ratings on holding companies are not considered as the rating of the bank); or (c) money market funds, including funds managed by Escrow Agent or any of its affiliates; provided further, however, that Escrow Agent will not be directed to invest in investments that Escrow Agent determines are not consistent with Escrow Agent’s policies or practices. Buyer and Representative recognize and agree that Escrow Agent will not provide supervision, recommendations or advice relating to either the investment of Escrow Funds or the purchase or disposition of any investment and Escrow Agent will not have any liability for any loss in an investment made pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Escrow Agent has no responsibility whatsoever to determine the market or other value of any investment and makes no representation or warranty as to the accuracy of any such valuations. To the extent applicable regulations grant rights to receive brokerage confirmations for certain security transactions, Buyer and Representative waive receipt of such confirmations.

All investments will be made in the name of Escrow Agent. Escrow Agent may, without notice to Buyer and Representative, sell or liquidate any of the foregoing investments at any time for any disbursement of Escrow Funds permitted or required hereunder and will not be liable for any loss, cost or penalty resulting from any sale or liquidation of any such investment, provided that Escrow Agent has made such sale or liquidation in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement. All investment earnings will become part of the Escrow Funds and investment losses will be charged against the Escrow Funds. With respect to any Escrow Funds or investment instruction received by Escrow Agent after 11:00 a.m., U.S. Central Time, Escrow Agent will not be required to invest applicable funds until the next Business Day. The Escrow Funds shall at all times remain available for distribution in accordance with Section 4.

7. Statements. Receipt of the Escrow Funds and investment and reinvestment of the Escrow Funds will be confirmed by Escrow Agent by an account statement. Escrow Agent will deliver monthly account statements to Buyer and Representative in accordance with Section 16. Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by Escrow Agent, account statements will be effectively delivered when made available through Escrow Agent’s online portal system (“Pivot”).

8. Tax Reporting. (a) Other than as specified in this Section 8, Escrow Agent has no responsibility for the tax consequences of this Agreement and Buyer and Representative shall consult with independent counsel concerning any and all tax matters. Buyer and Representative jointly and severally agree to assume all obligations imposed now or hereafter related to this Agreement by any applicable tax law or regulation with respect to payments or performance under this Agreement; provided Buyer and Representative agree solely between themselves that with respect to the foregoing, the party who fails to properly remit and pay applicable taxes and/or comply with applicable tax law or regulation shall be solely responsible for any associated taxes and/or penalties. Unless otherwise specified to Escrow Agent in writing by Buyer and Representative, all interest or other income earned under this Agreement shall be allocated to Buyer and reported, by Escrow Agent to the IRS on IRS Form 1099 or 1042S (or successor form) as income earned from the Escrow Funds by Buyer whether or not said income has been distributed during such year. Except as specifically set forth in this Section 8 or as otherwise agreed by Escrow Agent in writing, Escrow Agent has no tax reporting or withholding obligation except to the Internal Revenue Service with respect to Form 1099-B reporting on payments of gross proceeds under Internal Revenue Code Section 6045 and Form 1099 and Form 1042-S reporting with respect to investment income earned on the Escrow Funds, if any. In the event Buyer or Representative becomes aware of any additional reporting, withholding, or other tax requirements with respect to this Agreement, the parties shall inform Escrow Agent in writing and cooperate in good faith to ensure compliance with such requirements. Escrow Agent shall have no responsibility for Form 1099-MISC reporting with respect to disbursements that Escrow Agent makes in an administrative or ministerial function to vendors or other service providers and shall have no tax reporting or withholding duties with respect to the Foreign Investment in Real Property Tax Act.

(b) To the extent that U.S. federal imputed interest regulations apply, Buyer and Representative shall so inform Escrow Agent, provide Escrow Agent with all imputed interest calculations and direct Escrow Agent to disburse imputed interest amounts as Buyer and Representative deem appropriate. Escrow Agent will rely solely on such provided calculations and information and will have no responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of any such calculations or information. Buyer and Representative shall provide Escrow Agent a properly completed IRS Form W-9, for each payee. If requested tax documentation is not so provided, Escrow Agent is authorized to withhold taxes as required by the United States Internal Revenue Code and related regulations.

(c) Except as otherwise directed by Buyer and Representative in writing, Escrow Agent will report, on an accrual basis, all interest or income on the Escrow Funds as being owned by Buyer for federal income tax purposes. In connection with a Final Order, the Escrow Agent shall distribute to Buyer an amount equal to twenty-five percent (25%) of the interest or other income treated as earned by Buyer and reported to the IRS as provided for in this Section 8.

9. Resignation or Removal of Escrow Agent. Escrow Agent may resign and be discharged from the performance of its duties hereunder at any time by giving thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Buyer and Representative specifying a date when such resignation will take effect. Similarly, Escrow Agent may be removed at any time, with or without cause, by Buyer and Representative giving at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Escrow Agent specifying the date when such removal will take effect. If Buyer and Representative fail to jointly appoint a successor Escrow Agent prior to the effective date of such resignation or removal, Escrow Agent may petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint a successor escrow agent, and all reasonable costs and expenses related to such petition shall be paid jointly and severally by Buyer and Representative provided, Buyer and Representative agree solely between themselves that any such costs and expenses shall be paid fifty percent (50%) by Buyer, on the one hand, and fifty percent (50%) by the Representative, on the other hand. The retiring Escrow Agent shall transmit all records pertaining to the Escrow Funds and shall pay all Escrow Funds to the successor Escrow Agent, after making copies of such records as the retiring Escrow Agent deems advisable and after deduction and payment to the retiring Escrow Agent of all reasonable and documented fees and expenses (including court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees) payable to, incurred by, or expected to be incurred by the retiring Escrow Agent in connection with the performance of its duties and the exercise of its rights hereunder. After any retiring Escrow Agent’s resignation or removal, the provisions of this Agreement will inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Escrow Agent under this Agreement.

10. Duties and Liability of Escrow Agent.

(a) Escrow Agent undertakes to perform only such duties as are expressly set forth herein and no additional duties will be implied. Escrow Agent has no fiduciary or discretionary duties of any kind. Escrow Agent’s permissive rights will not be construed as duties. Escrow Agent has no liability under and no duty to inquire as to the provisions of any document other than this Agreement, including without limitation any other agreement between any or all of the parties hereto or any other persons even though reference thereto may be made herein and whether or not a copy of such document has been provided to Escrow Agent. Escrow Agent’s sole responsibility is to hold the Escrow Funds in accordance with Escrow Agent’s customary practices and disbursement thereof in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Escrow Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to make any calculations under this Agreement, or to determine when any calculation required under the provisions of this Agreement should be made, how it should be made or what it should be, or to confirm or verify any such calculation. Escrow Agent will not be charged with knowledge or notice of any fact or circumstance not specifically set forth herein or otherwise set forth in a Joint Written Direction or Final Order. This Agreement will terminate upon the distribution of all the Escrow Funds pursuant to any applicable provision of this Agreement, and Escrow Agent will thereafter have no further obligation or liability whatsoever with respect to this Agreement or the Escrow Funds.

(b) Escrow Agent will not be liable for any action taken or omitted by it in good faith except to the extent that Escrow Agent’s fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct was the cause of any loss to Buyer or Representative. Escrow Agent may retain and act hereunder through agents, and will not be responsible for or have any liability with respect to the acts of any such agent retained by Escrow Agent in good faith, absent Escrow Agent’s fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(c) Escrow Agent may conclusively rely upon any notice, instruction, request or other instrument, not only as to its due execution, validity and effectiveness, but also as to the truth and accuracy of any information contained therein, which Escrow Agent believes in good faith to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the person purporting to sign it and shall have no responsibility or duty to make inquiry as to or to determine the truth, accuracy or validity thereof (or any signature appearing thereon). In no event will Escrow Agent be liable for (i) incidental, indirect, special, consequential or punitive damages or penalties of any kind (including, but not limited to lost profits), even if Escrow Agent has been advised of the likelihood of such damages or penalty and regardless of the form of action or (ii) any amount greater than the value of the Escrow Funds as valued upon deposit with Escrow Agent.

(d) Escrow Agent will not be responsible for delays or failures in performance resulting from acts of God, strikes, lockouts, riots, acts of war or terror, epidemics, governmental regulations, fire, communication line failures, computer viruses, attacks or intrusions, power failures, earthquakes or any other circumstance beyond its control; provided, however, Escrow Agent shall use commercially reasonable efforts which are consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to resume performance as soon as reasonably practicable under the circumstances. Escrow Agent will not be obligated to take any legal action in connection with the Escrow Funds, this Agreement or the UPA or to appear in, prosecute or defend any such legal action or to take any other action that in Escrow Agent’s sole judgment may expose it to potential expense or liability. Buyer and Representative are aware that under applicable state law, property which is presumed abandoned may under certain circumstances escheat to the applicable state. Escrow Agent will have no liability to Buyer or Representative, their respective heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns, or any other party, should any or all of the Escrow Funds escheat by operation of law.

(e) Escrow Agent may consult, at Buyer’s and Representative’s cost (which any such costs shall be reasonable and documented and Buyer and Representative agree solely between themselves shall be paid fifty percent (50%) by Buyer, on the one hand, and fifty percent (50%) by the Representative, on the other hand), legal counsel selected by it in the event of any dispute or question as to the construction of any of the provisions hereof or of its duties hereunder, or relating to any dispute involving this Agreement. Buyer and Representative agree to perform or procure the performance of all further acts and things, and execute and deliver such further documents, as may be required by law or as Escrow Agent may reasonably request in connection with its duties hereunder. When any action is provided for herein to be done on or by a specified date that falls on a day other than a Business Day, such action may be performed on the following Business Day.

(f) If any portion of the Escrow Funds is at any time attached, garnished or levied upon, or otherwise subject to any writ, order, decree or process of any court, or in case disbursement of Escrow Funds is stayed or enjoined by any court order, Escrow Agent is authorized, in its sole discretion, to respond as it deems appropriate or to comply with all writs, orders, decrees or process so entered or issued, including but not limited to those which it is advised by legal counsel of its own choosing is binding upon it, whether with or without jurisdiction; provided, however, that Escrow Agent shall provide written notice to Buyer and Representative of the course of action that Escrow Agent has taken (or intends to take, to the extent legally permissible and when practicable) in response to any such writ, order, decree or process. If Escrow Agent relies upon or complies with any such writ, order, decree or process, it will not be liable to any of the parties hereto or to any other person or entity by reason of such compliance even if such order is reversed, modified, annulled, set aside or vacated.

(g) Escrow Agent and any stockholder, director, officer or employee of Escrow Agent may buy, sell and deal in any of the securities of any other party hereto and contract and lend money to any other party hereto and otherwise act as fully and freely as though it were not Escrow Agent under this Agreement. Nothing herein will preclude Escrow Agent from acting in any other capacity for any other party hereto or for any other person or entity.

(h) In the event instructions, including funds transfer instructions, address change or change in contact information are given to Escrow Agent (other than in writing at the time of execution of this Agreement), whether in writing, by email or otherwise, Escrow Agent is authorized, but not required, to seek confirmation of such instructions by telephone call-back to any person designated by the instructing party on Schedule C hereto, and Escrow Agent may rely upon the confirmation of anyone purporting to be the person so designated. The persons and telephone numbers for call-backs may be changed only in writing actually received and acknowledged by Escrow Agent and will be effective only after Escrow Agent has a reasonable opportunity to act on such changes. If Escrow Agent is unable to contact any of the designated representatives identified in Schedule C, Escrow Agent is hereby authorized but will be under no duty to seek confirmation of such instructions by telephone call-back to any one or more of Buyer’s (“Executive Officers”), as the case may be, which will include the titles of Chief Executive Officer, President and Vice President, as Escrow Agent may select. Such Executive Officer must deliver to Escrow Agent a fully executed incumbency certificate, and Escrow Agent may rely upon the confirmation of anyone purporting to be any such officer. Buyer and Representative agree that Escrow Agent may at its option record any telephone calls made pursuant to this Section. Escrow Agent in any funds transfer may rely solely upon any account numbers or similar identifying numbers provided by Buyer or Representative to identify (i) the beneficiary, (ii) the beneficiary’s bank, or (iii) an intermediary bank, even when its use may result in a transfer of funds to a person other than the intended beneficiary or to a bank other than the intended beneficiary’s bank or intermediary bank. Buyer and Representative acknowledge that these optional security procedures are commercially reasonable.

11. Indemnification of Escrow Agent. Buyer and Representative, jointly and severally, shall indemnify and hold harmless Escrow Agent and each director, officer, employee and affiliate of Escrow Agent (each, an “Indemnified Party”) upon demand against any and all claims, actions and proceedings (whether asserted or commenced by Buyer, Representative or any other person or entity and whether or not valid), losses, damages, liabilities, penalties, costs and expenses of any kind or nature (including without limitation reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses) (collectively, “Losses”) arising from this Agreement or Escrow Agent’s actions hereunder, except to the extent such Losses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have been caused by the fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party in connection with Escrow Agent’s material breach of this Agreement. Buyer and Representative further agree, jointly and severally, to indemnify each Indemnified Party for all costs, including without limitation reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees, incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with the enforcement of Buyer’s and Representative’s obligations to Escrow Agent under this Agreement. Each Indemnified Party shall, in its sole discretion, have the right to select and employ one separate counsel with respect to any action or claim brought or asserted against it, and the reasonable and documented fees of such counsel shall be paid upon demand by Buyer and Representative jointly and severally. The obligations of Buyer and Representative under this Section shall survive any termination of this Agreement and the resignation or removal of Escrow Agent.

12. Compensation of Escrow Agent.

(a) Fees and Expenses. Buyer and Representative, jointly and severally, agree to compensate Escrow Agent upon demand for its services hereunder in accordance with Schedule B attached hereto. The obligations of Buyer and Representative under this Section shall survive any termination of this Agreement and the resignation or removal of Escrow Agent. Buyer and Representative agree solely between themselves that the fees and expenses paid under this Section 12(a) shall be paid fifty percent (50%) by Buyer, on the one hand, and fifty percent (50%) by the Representative, on the other hand.

(b) Disbursements from Escrow Funds to Pay Escrow Agent. Escrow Agent is authorized to, and may disburse to itself from the Escrow Funds, from time to time, the amount of any compensation and reimbursement of expenses due and payable hereunder (including any amount to which Escrow Agent or any other Indemnified Party is entitled to seek indemnification hereunder). Escrow Agent shall notify Buyer and Representative of any such disbursement from the Escrow Funds to itself or any other Indemnified Party and shall furnish Buyer and Representative copies of related invoices and other statements.

13. Representations and Warranties. Buyer and Representative each respectively make the following representations and warranties to Escrow Agent:

(a) it has full power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform its obligations hereunder; and this Agreement has been duly approved by all necessary action and constitutes its valid and binding agreement enforceable in accordance with its terms.

(b) each of the applicable persons designated on Schedule C attached hereto has been duly appointed to act as its authorized representative hereunder and individually has full power and authority on its behalf to execute and deliver any instruction or direction, to amend, modify or waive any provision of this Agreement and to take any and all other actions as its authorized representative under this Agreement and no change in the designation of such authorized representative will be effective until written notice of such change is delivered to each other party to this Agreement pursuant to Section 16 and Escrow Agent has had reasonable time to act upon it.

(c) the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by Escrow Agent does not and will not violate any applicable law or regulation.

(d) it will not claim any immunity from jurisdiction of any court, suit or legal process, whether from service of notice, injunction, attachment, execution or enforcement of any judgment or otherwise.

(e) there is no security interest in the Escrow Funds or any part thereof and no financing statement under the Uniform Commercial Code is on file in any jurisdiction claiming a security interest in or describing (whether specifically or generally) the Escrow Funds or any part thereof.

14. Identifying Information. To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each person who opens an account. For a non-individual person such as a business entity, a charity, a trust or other legal entity, Escrow Agent requires documentation to verify its formation and existence as a legal entity. Escrow Agent may require financial statements, licenses or identification and authorization documents from individuals claiming authority to represent the entity or other relevant documentation. Buyer and Representative agree to provide all information requested by Escrow Agent in connection with any legislation or regulation to which Escrow Agent is subject, in a timely manner. Escrow Agent’s appointment and acceptance of its duties under this Agreement is contingent upon verification of all regulatory requirements applicable to Buyer, Representative and any of their permitted assigns, including successful completion of a final background check. These conditions include, without limitation, requirements under the USA PATRIOT Act, the USA FREEDOM Act, the Bank Secrecy Act, and the U.S. Department of the Treasury Office of Foreign Assets Control. If these conditions are not met, Escrow Agent may at its option promptly terminate this Agreement in whole or in part and refuse any otherwise permitted assignment by Buyer or Representative, without any liability or incurring any additional costs.

15. Covenant of Escrow Agent. Escrow Agent hereby agrees and covenants with Buyer and Representative that it shall perform all of its obligations under this Agreement in good faith and shall not deliver custody or possession of any of the Escrow Funds to anyone except pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or as otherwise required by applicable law.

16. Notices. All notices, approvals, consents, requests, statements and other communications hereunder (each, a “Notice”) must be in writing, in English, and may only be delivered (a) by personal delivery, or (b) by national overnight courier service, or (c) by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, or (d) by Pivot or (e) by email.

SCHEDULE A

MONEY MARKET DEPOSIT ACCOUNT AUTHORIZATION FORM DESCRIPTION AND TERMS

The U.S. Bank Money Market Deposit Account (“MMDA”) is a U.S. Bank National Association (“U.S. Bank”) interest-bearing money market deposit account. Selection of this investment includes authorization to place funds on deposit and invest with U.S. Bank.

Interest rates are determined at U.S. Bank’s discretion, and U.S. Bank reserves the right to change the applicable interest rate at any time. U.S. Bank uses the daily balance method to calculate interest on this account (actual/365 or 366). This method applies a daily periodic rate to the principal balance in the account each day. Interest is accrued daily and credited monthly to the account.

The owner of the account is U.S. Bank, U.S. Bank Trust National Association, or U.S. Bank Trust Company National Association (as applicable) (the “U.S. Bank Entities”) as agent for Global Corporate Trust customers. The U.S. Bank Entities perform all account deposits and withdrawals. Deposit accounts are FDIC-insured per depositor, as determined under FDIC Regulations, up to applicable FDIC limits. As part of U.S. Bank’s fees for servicing the escrow account(s), U.S. Bank earns and retains float income to the extent the escrow account(s) holds a balance in the MMDA.

THE U.S. BANK ENTITIES, WHEN ACTING AS AN INDENTURE TRUSTEE OR IN A SIMILAR CAPACITY, ARE NOT REQUIRED TO REGISTER AS A MUNICIPAL ADVISOR WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION FOR PURPOSES OF COMPLYING WITH THE DODD-FRANK WALL STREET REFORM & CONSUMER PROTECTION ACT.

WHEREAS, in connection with the Purchase Agreement, the Company may issue Common Stock as consideration pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the representations, covenants and agreements contained herein, and certain other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

1. Resale Shelf Registration Rights.

(a) Registration Statement Covering Resale of Registrable Securities. In accordance with Section 2, by the later of (i) one (1) Business Day following the issuance of shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and (ii) the Business Day in which the Company publicly announces the Purchase Agreement, the Company shall prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and filed, with the Commission a prospectus supplement pursuant to Rule 424(b)(7) promulgated under the Securities Act (each, a “Prosupp”) to its Current Resale Shelf Registration Statement, providing for the resale from time to time by the Holders of any and all Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act (or any successor or similar provision adopted by the Commission then in effect), and each such Prosupp shall further provide that such Registrable Securities may be sold pursuant to any method or combination of methods legally available to the Holders, including in customary market and brokerage trades through any national exchange or over the counter market. The Company shall use its best efforts to maintain the Current Resale Shelf Registration Statement in accordance with the terms hereof and keep the Current Resale Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective and shall cause the Current Resale Shelf Registration Statement to be supplemented and amended (including post-effective amendments) to the extent necessary to ensure that such Registration Statement is available or, if not available, to ensure that another Registration Statement is available and effective under the Securities Act at all times until the first date on which there are no longer any Registrable Securities outstanding (the “Effectiveness Period”).

(b) Notification; Replacement Registration Statement on Form S-3; and Distribution of Materials. The Company shall notify the Holders in writing of the filing of each Prosupp immediately following the filing thereof with the Commission, and the Company shall notify the Holders in writing immediately following the Current Resale Shelf Registration Statement no longer being current or otherwise available to the Holders as provided by Section 1(a). If the Current Resale Shelf Registration Statement becomes unavailable for the use by the Holders because the Company is no longer eligible to use an Automatic Shelf Registration Statement, then the Company shall promptly (and in any event within one (1) Business Day following the unavailability of such Registration Statement) file with the Commission a replacement Registration Statement on such form as it is then currently able to use (which shall be Form S-3 if the Company is then able to use such form), and the Company shall use its best efforts to have such replacement Registration Statement declared effective by the Commission by the earlier of (A) ten (10) days following receipt of notice from the Commission that it will not review such Registration Statement or (B) sixty (60) days following the unavailability of the Current Resale Shelf Registration Statement if the Commission reviews such Registration Statement, which replacement Registration Statement shall provide for the resale from time to time by the Holders of any and all Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act (or any successor or similar provision adopted by the Commission then in effect), and the Prospectus contained therein shall further provide that such Registrable Securities may be sold pursuant to any method or combination of methods legally available to the Holders, including in customary market and brokerage trades through any national exchange or over the counter market. The Company shall notify the Holders of the effectiveness of such replacement Registration Statement as soon as practicable, and in any event within one (1) Business Day after the Registration Statement becomes effective, and shall furnish to them, without charge, such number of copies of such Registration Statement (including any amendments, supplements and exhibits), the Prospectus contained therein (including each preliminary prospectus and all related amendments and supplements) and any documents incorporated by reference in such Registration Statement or such other documents as the Holders may reasonably request in order to facilitate the sale of the Registrable Securities in the manner described in such Registration Statement. The Company shall use its best efforts to maintain such replacement Registration Statement in accordance with the terms hereof and keep such Registration Statement continuously effective and shall cause such Registration Statement to be supplemented and amended (including post-effective amendments) to the extent necessary to ensure that such Registration Statement is available or, if not available, to ensure that another Registration Statement is available and effective under the Securities Act at all times during the Effectiveness Period.

(c) Amendments and Supplements. Subject to the provisions of Section 1(a) above, the Company shall promptly prepare and file with the Commission from time to time such amendments and supplements to the Current Resale Shelf Registration Statement and Prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep the Current Resale Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective and to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all the Registrable Securities during the Effectiveness Period. If any Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 1(b) is filed on Form S-3 and thereafter the Company becomes ineligible to use Form S-3 for secondary sales, then the Company shall promptly notify the Holders of such ineligibility and shall file with the Commission a shelf registration on Form S-1 or other appropriate form as promptly as practicable (but in all events no later than fifteen (15) days thereafter) to replace the shelf registration statement on Form S-3 and use its best efforts to have such replacement Registration Statement declared effective as promptly as practicable and to cause such replacement Registration Statement to remain effective, and shall cause the Registration Statement to be supplemented and amended to the extent necessary to ensure that such Registration Statement is continuously available or, if not available, that another Registration Statement is available, for the resale of all the Registrable Securities held by the Holders during the Effectiveness Period; provided, however, that at any time the Company once again becomes eligible to use Form S-3, the Company shall, as promptly as practicable, cause such replacement Resale Shelf Registration Statement to be amended, or shall file a new replacement Registration Statement, such that the Registration Statement is once again on Form S-3.

(d) Notwithstanding the registration obligations set forth in this Section 1, in the event the Commission informs the Company that all of the Registrable Securities cannot, as a result of the application of Rule 415, be registered for resale as a secondary offering on a single registration statement, the Company agrees to promptly (i) inform each of the Holders thereof and shall file amendments to the Resale Shelf Registration Statement as required by the Commission and/or (ii) withdraw the applicable Registration Statement and file a new registration statement (a “New Registration Statement”), on Form S-3, or if Form S-3 is not then available to the Company for such registration statement, on such other form available to register for resale the Registrable Securities as a secondary offering; provided, however, that prior to filing such amendment or New Registration Statement, the Company shall advocate with the Commission for the registration of all of the Registrable Securities in accordance with any publicly-available written or oral guidance, comments, requirements or requests of the Commission staff (the “SEC Guidance”), including without limitation, the Manual of Publicly Available Telephone Interpretations and successor guidance. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any SEC Guidance sets forth a limitation of the number of Registrable Securities permitted to be registered on a particular Registration Statement as a secondary offering (and notwithstanding that the Company used diligent efforts to advocate with the Commission for the registration of all or a greater number of Registrable Securities in accordance with the preceding sentence), unless otherwise directed in writing by a Holder as to its Registrable Securities, the number of Registrable Securities to be registered on such Registration Statement will be reduced on a pro rata basis based on the total number of Registrable Securities held by the Holders, subject to a determination by the Commission that certain Holders’ amount of Registrable Securities must be reduced first based on the number of Registrable Securities held by such Holders. In the event the Company amends the applicable Registration Statement or files a New Registration Statement, as the case may be, under clauses (i) or (ii) above, the Company shall file with the Commission, as promptly as allowed by Commission or SEC Guidance provided to the Company or to registrants of securities in general, one or more Registration Statements on Form S-3 or such other form available to register for resale those Registrable Securities that were not registered for resale on the applicable Registration Statement, as amended, or the New Registration Statement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company shall not name any Holder as an underwriter (as defined in Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act) in any Registration Statement without such Holder’s written consent.

2. Registration Procedures. In connection with the Registration to be effected pursuant to Section 1, the Company shall expeditiously as reasonably possible:

(a) without derogating from the Company’s obligations contained in Section 1, prepare in accordance with the Securities Act and all applicable rules and regulations promulgated thereunder and file with the Commission a Registration Statement, and all amendments and supplements thereto and related prospectuses as may be necessary to comply with applicable securities laws, with respect to such Registrable Securities and use best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective immediately upon filing with the Commission, or if not on Form S-3ASR to become effective as promptly as practicable upon filing of a Form S-3 (provided that at least two (2) Business Days before filing a Registration Statement or prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto, the Company shall furnish to counsel selected by the Applicable Approving Party draft copies of all such documents proposed to be filed);

(b) immediately notify each Holder of Registrable Securities of (A) the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose, (B) the receipt by the Company or its counsel of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose, and (C) the effectiveness of each Registration Statement filed hereunder;

(g) promptly notify in writing each seller of such Registrable Securities (i) after it receives notice thereof, of the date and time when such Registration Statement and each post-effective amendment thereto has become effective or a prospectus or supplement to any prospectus relating to a Registration Statement has been filed and when any registration or qualification has become effective under a state securities or blue sky law or any exemption thereunder has been obtained, (ii) after receipt thereof, of any request by the Commission for the amendment or supplementing of such Registration Statement or prospectus or for additional information, and (iii) at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in such Registration Statement contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits any fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and, the Company promptly (and in any event within one (1) Business Day) shall prepare, file with the Commission and furnish to each Holder (upon request) a reasonable number of copies of a supplement or amendment to such Prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such Registrable Securities, such Prospectus shall not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading;

(h) cause all such Registrable Securities to be listed on each securities exchange on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed and, if not so listed, to be listed on a securities exchange and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to arrange for at least two market makers to register as such with respect to such Registrable Securities with FINRA;

(i) provide a transfer agent and registrar for all such Registrable Securities not later than the effective date of such registration statement;

(j) make available for inspection by any Holder of Registrable Securities, any underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to such Registration Statement and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by any such seller or underwriter, all financial and other records, pertinent corporate and business documents and properties of the Company as shall be necessary to enable them to exercise their due diligence responsibility, and cause the Company’s officers, managers, directors, employees, agents, representatives and independent accountants to supply all information reasonably requested by any such seller, underwriter, attorney, accountant or agent in connection with such registration statement;

(k) otherwise use its best efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission;

(l) in the event of the issuance of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of a Registration Statement, or of any order suspending or preventing the use of any related Prospectus or suspending the qualification of any Common Stock included in such Registration Statement for sale in any jurisdiction, the Company shall use its best efforts promptly to obtain the withdrawal of such order;

(m) use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement to be registered with or approved by such other governmental agencies or authorities as may be necessary to enable the sellers thereof to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities;

(n) cooperate with the Holders of Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates or book-entry statements representing securities to be sold under the Registration Statement;

(o) cooperate with each Holder of Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement and each underwriter or agent participating in the disposition of such Registrable Securities and their respective counsel in connection with any filings required to be made with FINRA;

(q) if the Company files an Automatic Shelf Registration Statement covering any Registrable Securities, use its commercially reasonable efforts to remain a WKSI (and not become an ineligible issuer (as defined in Rule 405)) during the Effectiveness Period;

(r) if an Automatic Shelf Registration Statement has been outstanding for at least three (3) years, prior to the end of the third year, refile a new Automatic Shelf Registration Statement covering the Registrable Securities, and, if at any time when the Company is required to re-evaluate its WKSI status the Company determines that it is not a WKSI, use its commercially reasonable efforts to refile the registration statement on Form S-3 and keep such Registration Statement effective (including by filing a new Resale Shelf Registration Statement or replacement Resale Shelf Registration Statement, if necessary) at all times during the Effectiveness Period; and

(s) if reasonably requested by a Holder, (i) incorporate in a prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment such information as such Holder reasonably requests to be included therein relating to the sale and distribution of Registrable Securities, including information with respect to the number of Registrable Securities being offered or sold, the purchase price being paid therefor and any other terms of the offering of the Registrable Securities to be sold in such offering; and (ii) make all required filings of such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment with the Commission after being notified of the matters to be incorporated in such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment.

4. Registration Expenses. All fees and expenses incident to the Company’s performance of or compliance with this Agreement, including, without limitation, all registration, qualification and filing fees, listing fees, fees and expenses of compliance with securities or blue sky laws, stock exchange rules and filings, all expenses in preparing or assisting in preparing, word processing, duplicating, printing, delivering and distributing any Registration Statement, any Prospectus, any Prosupp, any amendments or supplements thereto, messenger and delivery expenses, certificates, opinions (including pursuant to Section 2(b)) and any other documents relating to the performance under and compliance with this Agreement, fees and disbursements of custodians, and fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company and all independent certified public accountants, underwriters (excluding underwriting discounts and commissions) and other Persons retained by the Company (all such expenses being herein called “Registration Expenses”), shall be borne by the Company and, for the avoidance of doubt, the Company also shall pay all of its internal expenses (including, without limitation, all salaries and expenses of its officers and employees performing legal or accounting duties), the expense of any annual audit or quarterly review, and the expenses and fees for listing the Registrable Securities on each securities exchange on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed.

5. Indemnification.

(a) The Company agrees to (i) indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by law, each Holder and such Holder’s officers, directors, members, partners, agents, affiliates and employees and each Person who controls such Holder (within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) against all losses, claims, actions, damages, liabilities and expenses related to or arising out of (A) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any registration statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus, any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any Free-Writing Prospectus or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (B) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act or any other similar federal or state securities laws or any rule or regulation promulgated thereunder applicable to the Company and relating to action or inaction required of the Company in connection with any such registration, qualification or compliance, and (ii) pay to each Holder and such Holder’s officers, directors, members, partners, agents, affiliates and employees and each Person who controls such Holder (within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act), as incurred, all legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating, preparing or defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action, except insofar as the same are caused by or contained in any information furnished in writing to the Company by such Holders expressly for inclusion therein; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 5 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), nor shall the Company be liable in any such case for any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action to the extent that it solely arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Registration Statement or omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein 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 the Registration Statement, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by such Holder expressly for inclusion in such Registration Statement. In connection with an underwritten offering, the Company shall indemnify any underwriters or deemed underwriters, their officers and directors and each Person who controls such underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) to the same extent as provided above with respect to the indemnification of the Holders of Registrable Securities.

(b) In connection with any Registration Statement in which a Holder of Registrable Securities is participating, (1) each such Holder shall furnish to the Company in writing such information as the Company reasonably requests for inclusion in any such Registration Statement or Prospectus and, (2) to the extent permitted by law, shall indemnify the Company, its officers, directors, employees, agents and representatives and each Person who controls the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses resulting from any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in the Registration Statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or omission is contained in any information expressly furnished in writing by such Holder to the Company for inclusion in such Registration Statement; provided that the foregoing obligation to indemnify shall be individual to such Holder, and not joint and several among the Holders, and shall be limited to the net amount of proceeds actually received by such Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement.

(c) Any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided that the failure to give prompt notice shall not impair any Person’s right to indemnification hereunder except to the extent such failure has materially prejudiced the indemnifying party) and (ii) unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such claim, permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. If such defense is assumed, the indemnifying party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (but such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim shall not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel (as well as one local counsel) for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim. In such instance, the conflicted indemnified parties shall have a right to retain one separate counsel, chosen by the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities included in the registration, at the expense of the indemnifying party. No indemnifying party, in the defense of such claim or litigation, shall, except with the consent of each indemnified party, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.

(d) Each party hereto agrees that, if for any reason the indemnification provisions contemplated by Sections 5(a) or 5(b) are 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) referred to therein, then each indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, 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 the relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party in connection with the actions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such indemnifying party and indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, relates to information supplied by such indemnifying party or indemnified party, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just or equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 5(d) were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the holders or any underwriters or all of them were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this Section 5(d). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above shall be deemed to include any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or, except as provided in Section 5(c), defending any such action or claim. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 10(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The sellers’ obligations in this Section 5(d) to contribute shall be several in proportion to the amount of securities registered by them and not joint and shall be limited to an amount equal to the net proceeds actually received by such seller from the sale of Registrable Securities effected pursuant to such registration.

(e) The indemnification and contribution provided for under this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party or any officer, director or controlling Person of such indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of Registrable Securities and the termination or expiration of this Agreement.

6. Other Agreements; Certain Limitations on Registration Rights. The Company shall file all reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations adopted by the Commission thereunder, shall make and keep adequate current public information available, as that term is understood and defined in Rule 144, and shall take such further action as the Holders may reasonably request and provide the necessary information, all to the extent required to enable such Persons to sell securities pursuant to (a) Rule 144 following the required holding period of Rule 144, subject to the Trading Limitations and the applicable Lock-Up Period, or (b) a Registration Statement on Form S-3 or any similar registration form hereafter adopted by the Commission. Upon request, the Company shall promptly deliver to the Holders a written statement as to whether it has complied with such requirements. The Company shall at all times use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the securities registered or to be registered pursuant hereto to be listed, or continue to be listed, on one or more of the Nasdaq Stock Market, the New York Stock Exchange, or the NYSE American.

7. Lock-Up Provisions.

(a) Each Lock-Up Holder agrees that he, she or it shall not transfer any Lock-Up Shares without the prior written consent of the Company, other than a transfer of Lock-Up Shares to its Permitted Transferees in accordance with this Agreement, for a period of no less than six (6) months following the Closing Date (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) (the “Initial Lock-Up Period”), provided that if the average of the thirty (30) Daily VWAPs per share of the Common Stock occurring on the thirty (30) consecutive Trading Day period immediately preceding the final day of the Initial Lock-Up Period exceeds $20.00 per share (subject to adjustment for any stock split, division or subdivision of shares, stock dividend, reverse stock split, consolidation of shares, reclassification, recapitalization or other similar transaction), the Initial Lock-Up Period for fifty percent (50%) of the Lock-Up Shares shall be extended for an additional six (6) months (the “Extended Lock-Up Period,” together with the Initial Lock-Up Period, the “Lock-Up Period”).

(b) If any Transfer not permitted under this Section 7 is made or attempted contrary to the provisions of this Agreement, such purported prohibited Transfer shall be null and void ab initio, and the Company shall refuse to recognize any such purported transferee as one of its equity holders for any purpose. In order to enforce this Section 7(b), the Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to the Lock-Up Shares of a Holder (and Permitted Transferees and assigns thereof) until the end of the applicable Lock-Up Period.

(e) Remedies.

(i) Any Person having rights under any provision of this Agreement shall be entitled to enforce such rights specifically (without posting a bond or other security), to recover damages caused by reason of any breach of any provision of this Agreement and to exercise all other rights granted by law. The parties hereto agree and acknowledge that money damages would not be an adequate remedy for any breach of the provisions of this Agreement and that, in addition to any other rights and remedies existing in its favor, any party shall be entitled to specific performance and/or other injunctive relief from any court of law or equity of competent jurisdiction (without posting any bond or other security) in order to enforce or prevent violation of the provisions of this Agreement.

Compliance with any of the provisions, covenants and conditions set forth in this Agreement may be waived, or any of such provisions, covenants or conditions may be amended or modified, with the written consent of the Company and the Holders of at least a majority in interest of the Registrable Securities at the time of such waiver, amendment or modification; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, any amendment hereto or waiver hereof that adversely affects one Holder, solely in its capacity as a holder of Registrable Securities, in a manner that is materially different from the other Holders (in such capacity) shall require the consent of the Holder so affected. Any amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this Section 9(f) shall be binding upon each Holder and the Company. No course of dealing between any Holder or the Company and any other party hereto or any failure or delay on the part of a Holder or the Company in exercising any rights or remedies under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver of any rights or remedies of any Holder or the Company. No single or partial exercise of any rights or remedies under this Agreement by a party shall operate as a waiver or preclude the exercise of any other rights or remedies hereunder or thereunder by such party.

This Agreement and the provisions hereof shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of each of the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. This Agreement shall not confer any rights or benefits on any persons that are not parties hereto, other than as expressly set forth in Section 5. Any transfer or assignment made other than as provided in this Section 9(g) shall be null and void.

(h) All covenants and agreements in this Agreement by or on behalf of any of the parties hereto shall bind and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and permitted assigns of the parties hereto whether so expressed or not.

(i) Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule or law, or public policy, all other terms, conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party hereto. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the extent possible.

(j) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties hereto and delivered to the other parties. Any such counterpart delivered by .pdf, .tif, .gif, .jpeg or similar attachment to electronic mail or by electronic signature delivered by electronic transmission (any such delivery, “Electronic Delivery”) shall be treated in all manner and respects as an original executed counterpart and shall be considered to have the same binding legal effect as if it were the original signed version thereof delivered in person. No party hereto shall raise the use of Electronic Delivery to deliver a counterpart or signature, or the fact that any counterpart or signature was transmitted or communicated through the use of Electronic Delivery, as a defense to the formation of a contract, and each party forever waives any such defense, except to the extent such defense relates to lack of authenticity.

(k) Descriptive Headings; Interpretation. The descriptive headings of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and do not constitute a part of this Agreement. The use of the word “including” herein shall mean “including without limitation.”

(l) Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of laws of any jurisdictions other than those of the State of Delaware. Each of the parties hereto (a) consents to submit itself to the personal jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or any federal court within the District of Delaware in the event any dispute arises out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (b) agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such court, (c) agrees that it will not bring any action relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in any court other than the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or any federal court within the District of Delaware, (d) waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or such Federal court. Each party agrees that (i) this Agreement involves at least $100,000.00 and (ii) this Agreement has been entered into by the parties in express reliance upon 6 Del. C. § 2708. Each party agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Any judgment from any such court described above may, however, be enforced by any party in any other court in any other jurisdiction.

(m) Notices. All notices, demands or other communications to be given or delivered under or by reason of the provisions of this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be given (and shall be deemed to have been duly given upon receipt) by delivery in person, by telecopy or email or by registered or certified mail (postage prepaid, return receipt requested) to each Holder at the address indicated on the Schedule of Holders attached hereto and to the Company at the address indicated below (or at such other address for a party as shall be specified in a notice given in accordance with this Section 9(m)):

EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY SUIT, ACTION OR OTHER PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

(p) Obligations of Holders. The obligations of each Holder hereunder are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Holder, and no Holder shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Holder hereunder. Nothing contained herein, and no action taken by any Holder pursuant hereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Holder as, and the Company acknowledges that the Holders do not so constitute, a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Holders are in any way acting in concert or as a group, and the Company will not assert any such claim with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated herein.
