9.3  Binding Effect; Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon the Parties and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns, provided that neither this Agreement nor any of the rights or obligations hereunder may be assigned or delegated by any Purchaser, by operation of law, merger or otherwise, without the prior written consent of the Secured Party and any attempted assignment without such consent shall be null and void, ab initio; provided, however, that after the Closing, subject, for the avoidance of doubt, to any applicable restrictions under the Purchaser Credit Agreement, a Purchaser may assign its rights and benefits hereunder to any Affiliate of such Purchaser without obtaining any such consent, provided, that such Purchaser shall remain liable for its obligations hereunder.

 

9.4  Amendment and Waiver. Any provision of this Agreement may be (a) amended only in a writing signed by Purchasers and the Secured Party or (b) waived only in a writing executed by the Person against which enforcement of such waiver is sought. No waiver of any provision hereunder or any breach or default thereof will extend to or affect in any way any other provision or prior or subsequent breach or default.

 

9.5  Third-Party Beneficiaries. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, will be construed to give any Person other than the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns, any legal or equitable right, remedy, or claim under or with respect to this Agreement or any provision of this Agreement.

 

9.6  Non-Recourse. This Agreement may only be enforced against, and any Action based upon, arising out of or related to this Agreement may only be brought against, the Persons that are expressly named as parties to this Agreement. No past, present or future shareholder, member, partner, manager, director, officer, employee, Affiliate, agent or Advisor(s) of any Party will have any liability (whether in contract, tort, equity or otherwise) for any of the representations, warranties, covenants, agreements or other obligations or liabilities of any Party to this Agreement or for any Action based upon, arising out of or related to this Agreement.

 

9.7  Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable Law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be prohibited by or invalid under applicable Law in any jurisdiction, such provision will be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity in such jurisdiction, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement or in any other jurisdiction.

 

9.8  Construction. The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the Parties to express their mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction will be applied against any Party. The headings of the sections and paragraphs of this Agreement have been inserted for convenience of reference only and will in no way restrict or otherwise modify any of the terms or provisions hereof.

 

9.9  Complete Agreement. This Agreement and the Transaction Documents and any other agreements between or among the Parties expressly referred to herein (to the extent referenced herein) (and to the extent expressly incorporated herein, the Loan and Security Agreement), collectively contain the entire agreement of the Parties respecting the sale and purchase of the Acquired Assets, the assumption of the Assumed Liabilities and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and supersede all prior agreements between or among the Parties respecting the sale and purchase of the Acquired Assets and the assumption of the Assumed Liabilities and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby.

9.10 Jurisdiction and Exclusive Venue. Each of the Parties irrevocably agrees that any Action that may be based upon, arising out of or related to this Agreement or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby brought by any other Party or its successors or assigns will be brought and determined only in the state and (where federal jurisdiction exists) federal courts of the State of New York and appellate courts having jurisdiction of appeals in such courts (the “Chosen Courts”), and each of the Parties hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Chosen Courts for itself and with respect to its property, generally and unconditionally, with regard to any such Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. Each of the Parties agrees not to commence any Action relating thereto except in the Chosen Courts, other than Actions in any court of competent jurisdiction to enforce any judgment, decree or award rendered by any Chosen Court, and no Party will file a motion to dismiss any Action filed in a Chosen Court on any jurisdictional or venue-related grounds, including the doctrine of forum non-conveniens. The Parties irrevocably agree that venue would be proper in any of the Chosen Courts, and hereby irrevocably waive any objection that any such court is an improper or inconvenient forum for the resolution of such Action. Each of the Parties further irrevocably and unconditionally consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.2. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any Party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by Law.

 

9.11  Governing Law; Waiver of Jury Trial.

 

(a)  This Agreement, and any Action that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby will be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal Laws of the State of New York applicable to agreements executed and performed entirely within such State without regards to conflicts of law principles of the State of New York or any other jurisdiction that would cause the Laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York to apply.

 

(b)  EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY THAT MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, THE DOCUMENTS AND AGREEMENTS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY AND THEREBY IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES AND THEREFORE HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION BASED ON, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY DOCUMENT OR AGREEMENT CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY AND THEREBY. EACH OF THE PARTIES AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH ACTION WILL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY AND THAT THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY FILE A COPY OF THIS AGREEMENT WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF THE PARTIES TO THE IRREVOCABLE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY. EACH PARTY (I) CERTIFIES THAT NO ADVISOR OF ANY 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 (II) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

 

 15 

 

 

9.12  Prevailing Party. If any Action is commenced to enforce any term or provision of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover its reasonable costs and expenses, including fees of Advisors, in such amount as the Chosen Court shall determine.

 

9.13  Counterparts and PDF. This Agreement and any other agreements referred to herein or therein, and any amendments hereto or thereto, may be executed in multiple counterparts, any one of which need not contain the signature of more than one party, but all such counterparts taken together will constitute one and the same instrument. Any counterpart, to the extent signed and delivered by means of a facsimile machine, .PDF or other electronic transmission, will be treated in all manner and respects as an original contract and will be considered to have the same binding legal effects as if it were the original signed version thereof delivered in person. Minor variations in the form of the signature page to this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, including footers from earlier versions of this Agreement or any such other document, will be disregarded in determining the effectiveness of such signature. At the request of any party hereto or to any such contract, each other party hereto or thereto will re-execute original forms thereof and deliver them to all other parties. No party hereto or to any such contract will raise the use of a facsimile machine, .PDF or other electronic transmission to deliver a signature or the fact that any signature or contract was transmitted or communicated through the use of facsimile machine, .PDF or other electronic transmission as a defense to the formation of a contract and each such party forever waives any such defense.

 

9.14  Publicity. Neither Purchasers, on the one hand, nor the Secured Party, on the other hand, shall, or permit or cause any of its Affiliates to, issue any press release or public announcement concerning this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (including their existence and the terms and conditions thereof) without obtaining the prior written approval of the other set of Parties, which approval may not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, that such consent shall not be required if in the reasonable judgment of the disclosing Party, disclosure is required (a) by applicable Law, Order or U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission or stock exchange requirement or (b) in order to enforce rights hereunder, provided that, in the case of disclosure pursuant to clause (a), unless otherwise prohibited by applicable Law, (i) the disclosing Party shall provide prompt written notice of such requirement so that the other set of Parties may (at such other Party’s election), prior to any disclosure by the disclosing Party, seek an appropriate protective order or other appropriate remedy or waive compliance by the disclosing Party with this Section 9.14 or both and (ii) absent the entry of such a protective order or the receipt of a waiver, such disclosing Party shall disclose only such information legally required to be disclosed and shall incorporate the reasonable comments of the other set of Parties with respect to, the text of any such disclosure and shall exercise commercially reasonable efforts to obtain reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be afforded any such information so disclosed.
