SECTION 9.3  Amendments, Waivers, etc.  This Agreement may be amended by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of Mercury and each of the Shareholders that would be bound by such amendment.  Any agreement on the part of any party hereto to any waiver of compliance with any representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement shall be valid only if set forth in a written instrument signed on behalf of such party.  The waiver by any party of a breach of any provision hereunder shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any prior or subsequent breach of the same or any other provision hereunder.

SECTION 9.4  Enforcement of Agreement; Specific Performance.  The Shareholders acknowledge and agree that Mercury would be irreparably damaged if any of the provisions of this Agreement are not performed in accordance with their specific terms or are otherwise breached and that any non-performance, breach or threatened breach of this Agreement by any Shareholder could not be adequately compensated by monetary damages alone and that Mercury would not have any adequate remedy at law. Accordingly, each of Mercury and New Holdco shall be entitled (in addition to any other remedy that may be available to it whether in law or equity, including monetary damages) to seek and obtain (a) enforcement of any provision of this Agreement by a decree or order of specific performance and (b) a temporary, preliminary and/or permanent injunction to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of any provisions of this Agreement without posting any bond or undertaking. The Shareholders further agree that they shall not object to the granting of injunctive or other equitable relief on the basis that there exists adequate remedy at law. Each Shareholder hereby expressly further waives (i) any defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate or that an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or in equity and (ii) any requirement under any Law to post security as a prerequisite to obtaining equity relief. Each Shareholder agrees that Mercury’s initial choice of remedy will be to seek specific performance of this Agreement in accordance with its terms. If a court of competent jurisdiction denies such relief, Mercury may seek alternative remedies, including damages in the same or another proceeding.

SECTION 9.5  Notices.  All notices and other communications in connection with this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed given (i) on the date of delivery if delivered personally or if sent via facsimile (with confirmation via express courier utilizing next-day service), (ii) on the earlier of confirmed receipt or the third (3rd) Business Day following the date of mailing if mailed by registered or certified mail (return receipt requested) or (iii) on the first (1st) Business Day following the date of dispatch if delivered utilizing next-day service by an express courier (with confirmation) to the parties at the following addresses (or at such other address for a party as shall be specified by like notice):
