2.Call Right.

The Call Right shall be exercisable by TCP by delivering written notice to the Founders (the “Call Right Notice”) specifying the amount and type of Company Securities to be purchased in connection with such exercise (such Company Securities, the “Called Securities”). As used herein, the term “Call Right Purchase Price” shall mean (i) with respect to any Called Securities that constitute Company Units or Company Common Stock, a per share purchase price equal to the greatest of (A) $10.30, (B) the Preceding VWAP of such Called Securities or (C) the Subsequent VWAP of such Called Securities; and (ii) with respect to any Company Securities that constitute Company Warrants, a per share price equal to the greater of (A) the Preceding VWAP of such Called Securities and (B) the Subsequent VWAP of such Called Securities.

TCP and the applicable Founder shall consummate the closing of the purchase of the Called Securities on the next trading day immediately after the date of delivery of the Call Right Purchase Price Notice. Notwithstanding the closing of such purchase or the payment of the applicable Call Right Purchase Price, Founders hereby reserve all rights and remedies with respect to the calculation of the applicable Call Right Purchase Price in accordance with this Section 2.

7.       Waiver. No waiver hereunder shall be valid or binding unless set forth in writing and duly executed by the party hereto against whom enforcement of the waiver is sought. Any such waiver shall constitute a waiver only with respect to the specific matter described in such writing and shall in no way impair the rights of the party hereto granting such waiver in any other respect or at any other time. Neither the waiver by any party hereto of a breach of or a default under any provision of this Agreement, nor the failure by any party hereto, on one or more occasions, to enforce any provision of this Agreement or to exercise any right or privilege hereunder, shall be construed as a waiver of any other breach or default of a similar nature, or as a waiver of any such provision, right or privilege hereunder.

 

8.       Assignment; Parties in Interest. Neither this Agreement nor any rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned by any party hereto (whether by operation of law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto, and any purported assignment without such consent shall be null and void ab initio; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, TCP may assign any of his rights, interests or obligations hereunder to any of his Affiliates. This Agreement will be binding upon, inure solely to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

 

 

 

9.       Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial.

 

(d)       This Agreement shall be construed, performed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware (without giving effect to its principles or rules of conflict of laws to the extent such principles or rules would require or permit the application of the laws of another jurisdiction) as to all matters, including matters of validity, construction, effect, performance and remedies.

 

(e)       Each of the parties hereto irrevocably agrees that any proceeding with respect to this Agreement and the rights and obligations arising hereunder, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect of this Agreement and the rights and obligations arising hereunder brought by any other party hereto or its successors or assigns, shall be brought and determined exclusively in the United State District Court for the District of Delaware or any state court sitting in the City of Wilmington in the State of Delaware. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably submits with regard to any such proceeding for itself and in respect of its property, generally and unconditionally, to the personal jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts and agrees that it will not bring any proceeding relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in any court other than the aforesaid courts. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that service of process, summons, notice or document by registered mail addressed to them at its address provided in Section 5 shall be effective service of process against them for any such proceeding brought in any of the aforesaid courts.

 

(f)       Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any proceeding with respect to this Agreement, (i) any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts for any reason other than the failure to serve in accordance with Section 5; (ii) any claim that it or its property is exempt or immune from jurisdiction of any such court or from any proceeding commenced in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise); and (iii) to the fullest extent permitted by the applicable Law, any claim that (A) such proceeding in such court is brought in an inconvenient forum; (B) the venue of such proceeding is improper; or (C) this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced in or by such courts.

 

(g)       EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY OR CLAIM THAT MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE, IT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. THIS WAIVER MAY NOT BE MODIFIED EITHER ORALLY OR IN WRITING (OTHER THAN BY A MUTUAL WRITTEN WAIVER SPECIFICALLY REFERRING TO THIS SECTION 9 (d) AND EXECUTED BY EACH PARTY HERETO). THIS WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER AGREEMENTS OR DOCUMENTS RELATING TO THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. The scope of this waiver is intended to be all-encompassing of any and all disputes that may be filed in any court and that relate to the subject matter of the transactions contemplated hereby, including contract claims, tort claims, breach-of-duty claims and all other common law and statutory claims. In the event of litigation, this Agreement may be filed as a written consent to a trial by the court.

 

 

 

(h)       EACH PARTY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (I) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HERETO HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE EITHER OF SUCH WAIVERS; (II) IT UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF SUCH WAIVERS; (III) IT MAKES SUCH WAIVERS VOLUNTARILY; AND (IV) IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 9.

 

10.       Counterparts; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. In the event that any signature to this Agreement is delivered by facsimile transmission or by e-mail delivery of a portable document format (.pdf or similar format) data file, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party hereto executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such facsimile or “.pdf” signature page were an original thereof. This Agreement shall become effective when each party hereto shall have received a counterpart hereof signed by each other party hereto. Until and unless each party hereto has received a counterpart hereof signed by each other party hereto, this Agreement shall have no effect and no party hereto shall have any right or obligation hereunder (whether by virtue of any other oral or written agreement or other communication).

 

11.       Entire Agreement. This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto in respect of the matters contemplated hereby and supersedes all prior discussions, negotiations, agreements, arrangements and understandings, whether oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. There are no warranties, representations or other agreements between the parties hereto in connection with the subject matter hereof, except to the extent specifically set forth herein.

 

 

 

12.       Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other governmental authority to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated 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 a determination, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties hereto as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.
