ARTICLE V
COVENANTS

Section 5.1Plan of Reorganization. This Agreement is intended to constitute a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of Section 1.368-2(g) of the income tax regulations promulgated under the Code. From and after the date of this Agreement, each Party hereto shall use it best efforts to cause the Combination to qualify, and shall not knowingly take any action, cause any action to be taken, fail to take any action or cause any action to fail or to be taken which action or failure to act could prevent the Combination from qualifying as a reorganization under the provisions of Section 368(a) of the Code. The Parties agree to report the Combination in a manner consistent with such reorganization treatment and will not take any position inconsistent therewith in any Tax Return, refund claim, litigation or otherwise unless required to do so by Law.

Section 5.2Public Announcements. Parent and the Shareholder Representative shall consult with each other before issuing any press release or otherwise making any public statement or making any other public (or non-confidential) disclosure (whether or not in response to an inquiry) regarding the terms of this Agreement or the agreements herein contemplated and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and neither shall issue any such press release or make any such statement or disclosure without the prior approval of the other (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), except as may be required by applicable Law.

Section 5.3Beneficial Ownership Limitation. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Parent shall not (and the Shareholder Representative and Shareholders shall direct Parent not to) issue any shares of Parent Common Stock to any Shareholder, to the extent that after giving effect to such issuance such Shareholder (together with such Shareholder’s Affiliates) would beneficially own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Parent Common Stock beneficially owned by the Shareholder and his/her/its Affiliates shall be delivered to Parent in writing at least two (2) Business Days prior to the issuance of any shares of Parent Common Stock pursuant to the terms of this Agreement (the “Beneficial Ownership Certification”). Parent shall be entitled to rely on the Beneficial Ownership Certification entirely, and each Shareholder holds and saves Parent harmless from any issuances of Parent Common Stock that cause such Shareholder to exceed the Beneficial Ownership Limitation if such shares of Parent Common Stock were issued in reliance on the Beneficial Ownership Certification. If any Shareholder fails to timely deliver his/her/its Beneficial Ownership Certification in accordance with this Section 5.3, Parent shall be relieved from its obligation to deliver the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable to such Shareholder in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, unless and until such Shareholder delivers the Beneficial Ownership Certification. Any shares of Parent Common Stock that are not delivered to a Shareholder due to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, shall be deemed unissued by Parent and such Shareholder shall have no ownership (including, without limitation, with respect to dividends) or voting rights in such shares. All shares of Parent Common Stock not delivered to a Shareholder due to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, shall be delivered to the applicable Shareholder once Parent receives a Beneficial Ownership Certificate from such Shareholder reflecting that the delivery of such shares will not exceed the Beneficial Ownership Limitation.

39

Section 5.4Releases. The Company shall, at its sole cost and expense, obtain a general release, in a form reasonably acceptable to Parent, from any and all Company Employees and/or service providers prior to Closing. The Company shall cause each of the Shareholders, officers and directors of the Acquired Companies to execute and deliver at Closing a general release, in a form reasonably acceptable to Company, releasing the Company from any and all claims at Closing.

Section 5.5280G. Each Person who shall receive any payments and/or benefits in connection with the Merger that constitute “parachute payments” pursuant to Section 280G of the Code shall execute a 280G Waiver, each in form reasonably satisfactory to Parent (the “280G Waiver”), pursuant to which each such Person will waive any right to entitlement to such payments and/or benefits unless the requisite shareholder approval of those payments and/or benefits is obtained pursuant to Section 280G of the Code so that such payment and benefits do not constitute “parachute payments” thereunder.

Section 5.6LLC Merger. As soon as practicable following the Merger, Parent shall do, or shall cause to be done, all such things reasonably necessary to effect the LLC Merger as contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 5.7D&O Insurance. Within a reasonable time following the Effective Time of the Merger, and in any event within forty-five (45) days, Parent shall, at its sole expense, name all of the outgoing officers and directors of the Company as co-insureds under Parent’s directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy.

Section 5.8Rule 144.

(a)The Shareholders have acknowledged that any Parent Common Stock being issued as Merger Consideration constitutes “restricted securities” as defined in Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act and will be subject thereto. Such Parent Common Stock may not be transferred, resold, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of in the absence of a legal opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to Parent that such transfer may be made without registration under the Securities Act and all applicable state securities or blue sky Laws.

(b)With a view to making available to the Shareholders the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act and any other similar rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit the Shareholders to sell securities of Parent to the public without registration, Parent agrees to use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to:

(i)make and keep adequate current public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144;

(ii)file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of Parent under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, for so long as Parent remains subject to such requirements, and the filing of such reports and other documents as is required for sales under Rule 144;

40

(iii)submit electronically and post on its corporate web site, if any, every interactive data file required to be submitted and posted pursuant to Rule 405 of Regulation S-T; and

(iv)furnish to the Shareholder Representative, promptly upon written request, (A) to the extent accurate, a written statement by Parent that it has complied with the reporting requirements of Rule 144, the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and (B) such other information as may be reasonably requested to permit the Shareholders to sell such securities pursuant to Rule 144 without registration.

(c)Provided the Shareholders (i) have held the Parent Common Stock received as Merger Consideration for six (6) months, and (ii) are not Affiliates of Parent, Parent shall promptly, upon a Shareholder’s written request, provide instructions to its stock transfer agent to remove the restrictive legend from any stock certificate representing a Shareholder’s portion of the Merger Consideration. The Shareholders shall provide Parent with the customary written certificates necessary for Parent to satisfy the foregoing requirement.

(a)any breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty set forth in Article III of this Agreement or any certificate delivered by the Company at Closing;

(b)any breach of any covenant, agreement or undertaking made by the Company in this Agreement (but excluding the Ancillary Agreements);

(c)the Dissenting Shares (if any), (i) to the extent that, as of the date a Claim Notice is delivered with respect to this Section 7.1(b), the aggregate amount that Parent or the Surviving Entity has paid in connection with such dissenters’ Claims which have been resolved as of the date of the Claim Notice (the “Resolved Dissenters’ Claims”) exceeds, as of the date of the applicable Claim Notice, the aggregate amounts in excess of the Merger Consideration payable in respect of such Dissenting Shares that were the basis of such Resolved Dissenters’ Claims, and (ii) with respect to the reasonable fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection with the settlement and/or litigation of any demand made by the holder of a Dissenting Share (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs); or

43

(d)any inaccuracy in the Closing Payment Schedule.

The Parties acknowledge and agree that, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, if the Surviving Entity suffers, incurs or otherwise becomes subject to any Losses set forth in this Section 7.1, then, solely for the purposes of having a right or standing to initiate or cause a Claim Notice to be delivered as herein contemplated, or to otherwise maintain or support such claim therein contemplated, Parent shall also be deemed, by virtue of its ownership of the limited liability company interests of the Surviving Entity, to have incurred Losses, without duplication, as a result of and in connection with such inaccuracy or breach and, for the avoidance of doubt, the Loss suffered by the Surviving Entity shall be deemed, without duplication, to be the Loss of Parent. Materiality qualifications or any similar qualifications in any representation or warranty shall only be taken into account in determining whether an inaccuracy or breach in connection with such representation or warranty (or failure of any representation or warranty to be accurate) exists, and shall not be taken into account in determining the amount of any Losses with respect to such inaccuracy, breach or failure to be accurate.

Section 7.2Indemnification Obligations of Parent, Merger Sub and LLC. Parent, Merger Sub and the LLC shall jointly and severally indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Shareholders and each of the heirs, executors, successors and assigns of any of the foregoing (collectively, the “Company Indemnified Parties”), from, against and in respect of, any and all Losses arising out of or relating to any of the following:

(a)Any Parent Indemnified Party or Company Indemnified Party (each, an “Indemnified Party”) making a claim for indemnification from an indemnifying party (each an “Indemnifying Party”), pursuant to this Article VII (each, a “Claim”) shall promptly notify the relevant Representative Party of the existence of the Claim, specifying in reasonable detail the nature of the Claim, the section or sections of this Agreement to which the Claim relates, and the amount of such Losses (or if not then determinable, its reasonable estimate of the amount of such Losses and the basis upon which the calculation would be determined) (a “Claim Notice”), except that any delay or failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall only relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder to the extent, if at all, that it is prejudiced by reason of such delay or failure. For a Claim by a Parent Indemnified Party, the “Representative Party” shall be the Shareholder Representative, and for a Claim by a Company Indemnified Party, the “Representative Party” shall be Parent.

44

(b)Except as set forth below in this Section 7.3(b) and subject to Section 7.3(c), the Indemnifying Party shall have the right, within thirty (30) days following written notice from the Indemnified Party, to elect, in its sole discretion with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, to proceed with the defense of any claim made by a Person not a party to this Agreement with respect to which a Claim may be made pursuant to this Article VII (a “Third-Party Claim”), and the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in such Third-Party Claim and participate in such defense at its own expense; provided that, if the Indemnified Party reasonably concludes (upon the written advice of outside counsel) that the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party have conflicting interests or different defenses available with respect to such Third-Party Claim, and, in such event, it is inappropriate for a single outside counsel to represent both parties, then the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of the Indemnified Party in connection with the Indemnified Party’s participation in such defense of a Third-Party Claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, the Indemnifying Party may only assume control of such defense if (i) it acknowledges in writing to the Indemnified Party within such thirty (30) day period that it is assuming the defense of such Third-Party Claim and that any damages, fines, costs or other Liabilities that may be assessed against the Indemnified Party in connection with such Third-Party Claim constitute Losses for which the Indemnified Party shall be indemnified pursuant to this Article VII, and (ii) the amount of damages recoverable in such Third-Party Claim, taken together with the estimated costs of defense thereof and the amount with respect to any unresolved claims for indemnification then pending, is less than or equal to the amount of Losses for which the Indemnifying Party is potentially liable under this Article VII in connection with such Third-Party Claim; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party may not assume control of the defense of any Third-Party Claim (A) by a Governmental Entity involving criminal Liability or (B) in which equitable relief is sought against the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates. The Indemnified Party is hereby authorized (but not obligated) prior to and during the thirty (30) day period referred to above to file any motion, answer or other pleading and to take any other action which the Indemnified Party shall deem necessary or appropriate to protect its interests. If the Indemnifying Party had the right to but does not defend such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnified Party may pay, compromise, or defend such Third-Party Claim in its sole discretion and seek indemnification for any and all Losses at the Indemnifying Party’s sole expense based upon, arising from or relating to such Third-Party Claim. The Parties shall cooperate with each other in all reasonable respects in connection with the defense of any Third-Party Claim, including making available records relating to such Third-Party Claim and furnishing, without expense (other than reimbursement of actual out-of-pocket expenses) to the defending party, such management employees of the non-defending party, information and testimony, and attending such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials and appeals as may be reasonably necessary for the preparation of the defense of such Third-Party Claim.

(c)Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall not enter into settlement of any Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed), except to the extent such settlement does not provide for Liability or the creation of a financial or other obligation on the part of the Indemnified Party and provides, in customary form, for the unconditional release of each Indemnified Party from all Liabilities in connection with such Third-Party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party had the right to but does not defend such Third-Party Claim pursuant to Section 7.3(b), the Indemnified Party may agree to any settlement without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party which shall be determinative of the Indemnifying Party’s obligations under this Article VII.

45

Section 7.4Survival.

(a)Except for claims based on intentional fraud committed with actual knowledge on the part of the applicable Party in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (“Fraud”), for purposes of the indemnification provided for in Section 7.1(a), the representations and warranties made in Article III of this Agreement shall survive the Closing and remain in effect thereafter for the shorter of (x) a period of eighteen (18) months, or (y) until the date on which Parent files its SEC Form 10-K for 2016 (the “Survival Period”), whereupon such representations and warranties will expire; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company Fundamental Representations (as defined below), shall survive indefinitely. For purposes hereof, the “Company Fundamental Representations” means the representations and warranties made by the Company and set forth in the following Sections of Article III of this Agreement (including the subsections set forth therein): Section 3.1 (Organization and Qualification); Section 3.2 (Capitalization; Shares and Shareholder Information); Section 3.3 (Corporate Power; Authorization); Section 3.4 (Company Subsidiaries); Section 3.6(c)(i) and (ii) (No Conflicts); and Section 3.11 (Property and Assets). The indemnification provided for in Section 7.1(b) shall terminate in accordance with the expiration of the terms of the covenants and agreements covered thereby or, if no term is expressly stated therein, until thirty (30) days after the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations. The indemnification provided for in Sections 7.1(c) and (d) shall survive indefinitely. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnification provided for in Section 7.1 (including the Company’s representations and warranties related thereto) shall continue as to any Losses with respect to which a Parent Indemnified Party has given the Shareholder Representative a Claim Notice in accordance with this Article VII on or prior to the date such indemnification would have otherwise terminated, which indemnification shall continue with respect to specific matters set forth in such Claim Notice until the resolution and satisfaction thereof in accordance with this Agreement.

(b)Except for claims based on Fraud, for purposes of the indemnification provided for in Section 7.2(a), the representations and warranties made by Parent, Merger Sub and LLC in Article IV of this Agreement shall survive the Closing and remain in effect thereafter for the Survival Period, whereupon such representations and warranties will expire; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parent Fundamental Representations (as defined below), shall survive indefinitely. For purposes hereof, the “Parent Fundamental Representations” means the representations and warranties set forth in the following Sections of ARTICLE IV of this Agreement (including the subsections set forth therein): Section 4.1 (Organization and Standing); Section 4.2 (Corporate Power; Authorization); Section 4.3(a) and (b) (No Conflicts); Section 4.6 (Capitalization); and Section 4.10 (Issuance of Stock Consideration). The indemnification provided for in Section 7.2(b) shall terminate in accordance with the expiration of the terms of the covenants and agreements covered thereby or, if no term is expressly stated therein, until thirty (30) days after the expiration of the applicable statutes of limitations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnification provided for in Section 7.2 (including the Parent Fundamental Representations) shall continue as to any Losses with respect to which a Company Indemnified Party has given Parent a Claim Notice in accordance with this Article VII on or prior to the date such indemnification would have otherwise terminated, which indemnification shall continue with respect to specific matters set forth in such Claim Notice until the resolution and satisfaction thereof in accordance with this Agreement. Except for claims based on Fraud, but notwithstanding any other term to the contrary in this Article VII, Parent shall not be Liable to the Shareholder Indemnified Parties under this Agreement including, without limitation, Article VII hereof for any amounts in excess of the aggregate value of, and the Shareholders’ sole source of recovery shall be limited to, an amount equal to the portion of the Contingent Merger Consideration that has not been paid to the Shareholder as of the date on which such Claim is asserted under Article VII to the extent the same becomes due and owing (the “Cap”); provided, that with respect to a breach of any Parent Fundamental Representation, the Shareholders shall also be entitled to recover from Parent an additional amount equal to the Closing Merger Consideration; provided further, that Parent’s satisfaction of any direct indemnification Claims by the Shareholder Indemnified Parties resulting from Parent’s failure to deliver any portion of the Merger Consideration to the extent the same becomes due and owing shall not count towards the Cap.

46

(c)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement shall limit the rights or remedies of any party under an Ancillary Agreement, provided, however, that no Person who was not a party thereto shall have any Liability whatsoever thereunder or in respect thereof. The representations, warranties, covenants and obligations of an Indemnifying Party shall not be limited or otherwise affected by or as a result of any information furnished to, or any investigation made by or knowledge of, any of the Indemnified Parties or any of their representatives.

Section 7.5Objections to Claims; Good Faith Attempt at Resolution.

(a)The Shareholder Representative may object to a Claim by a Parent Indemnified Party by delivering written notice of such objection (a “Shareholder Objection Notice”) to Parent during the twenty (20) calendar days following receipt of a Claim Notice. In the event that the Shareholder Representative shall deliver a Shareholder Objection Notice, the Shareholder Representative and Parent shall attempt in good faith for thirty (30) calendar days to resolve the Claim. If the Shareholder Representative and Parent should so agree, a written instrument setting forth such agreement shall be prepared and signed by Parent and the Shareholder Representative. The Parent and Shareholder Representative shall be entitled to rely on any such written instrument and shall pay and distribute any amounts, or offset any amounts otherwise payable, as specified therein. Failure by the Shareholder Representative to object to a Claim and deliver a Shareholder Objection Notice to Parent during the twenty (20) calendar days following receipt of a Claim Notice shall be deemed to be acceptance by the Shareholder Representative of the amount of the Claim set forth in the Claim Notice, which shall be deemed to be correct, conclusive, final and binding on Shareholder Representative and the Shareholders.

(b)Parent may object to a Claim by a Company Indemnified Party by delivering written notice of such objection (a “Parent Objection Notice”) to the Shareholder Representative during the twenty (20) calendar days following receipt of a Claim Notice. In the event that Parent shall deliver a Parent Objection Notice, the Shareholder Representative and Parent shall attempt in good faith for thirty (30) calendar days to resolve the Claim. If the Shareholder Representative and Parent should so agree, a written instrument setting forth such agreement shall be prepared and signed by Parent and the Shareholder Representative. The Parent and Shareholder Representative shall be entitled to rely on any such written instrument and shall pay and distribute any amounts, or offset any amounts otherwise payable, as specified therein. Failure by Parent to object to a Claim and deliver a Parent Objection Notice to the Shareholder Representative during the twenty (20) calendar days following receipt of a Claim Notice shall be deemed to be acceptance by Parent of the amount of the Claim set forth in the Claim Notice, which shall be deemed to be correct, conclusive, final and binding on Parent and the Surviving Entity.

47

Section 7.6Resolution of Conflicts and Arbitration.

(a)Arbitration. If no agreement can be reached after good faith negotiation between the Parent Indemnified Party or the Company Indemnified Party and the applicable Representative pursuant to Section 7.5, either Parent or the Shareholder Representative may, by written notice to the other, demand arbitration of the matter unless the amount of Losses is at issue in pending litigation with a third party, in which event arbitration shall not be commenced until such amount is ascertained or both Parties agree to arbitration; and in either such event the matter shall be settled by arbitration conducted by one arbitrator. The Parent Indemnified Party or the Company Indemnified Party and the applicable Representative, as the case may be, shall agree on the arbitrator, provided that if Parent and the Shareholder Representative cannot agree on such arbitrator, either Parent or the Shareholder Representative can request that Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services (“JAMS”) select the arbitrator. The arbitrator shall be a neutral attorney licensed in the State of Delaware or a neutral retired judge or judges of the state or federal judiciary of Delaware, in either case with a minimum of ten years’ experience in the substantive law applicable to the subject matter of the dispute to be arbitrated. Any such arbitration shall be held in New York, New York conducted pursuant to the commercial rules then in effect for JAMS. The arbitrator shall rule upon motions to compel or limit discovery and shall have the authority to impose sanctions, including attorneys’ fees and costs, to the same extent as a court of competent law or equity, should the arbitrator determine that discovery was sought without substantial justification or that discovery was refused or objected to without substantial justification. The decision of the arbitrator shall be written, shall be in accordance with applicable Laws and with this Agreement, and shall be supported by written findings of fact and conclusions of law, which shall set forth the basis for the decision of the arbitrator. The decision of the arbitrator as to the validity and amount of any Claim shall be binding and conclusive upon the Parties.

(b)Judgment; Arbitration Expenses. Judgment upon any award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The non-prevailing party to an arbitration shall pay its own expenses, the fees of the arbitrator, any administrative fee of JAMS, and the reasonable expenses, including attorneys’ fees and costs, reasonably incurred by the other parties to the arbitration.

Section 7.7Right to Suspend Payment of Contingent Consideration; Offset. Notwithstanding any term or provision of this Agreement to the contrary, Parent shall have the right to suspend and withhold payment of any and all Contingent Merger Consideration, in whole or in part, otherwise payable hereunder pending final resolution of an indemnification Claim, including until such time as the indemnification Claim may be finally resolved by the decision of an arbitrator, in accordance with this Article VII, and may offset any and all Contingent Merger Consideration, in whole or in part, up to the amount of any such indemnification Claim as set forth in the Claim Notice in the event the Shareholder Representative fails to timely object to such Claim, as set forth in Section 7.5(a), or in the amount as finally determined by an arbitrator in accordance with this Article VII.

48

Section 7.8Limitations.

(a)Except for claims based on Fraud, but notwithstanding any other term to the contrary in this Article VII, no Shareholder shall be Liable to the Parent Indemnified Parties under this Agreement including, without limitation, Article VII hereof for any amounts in excess of the aggregate value of, and the Parent’s sole source of recovery shall be limited to, an amount equal to the portion of the Contingent Merger Consideration that has not been paid to the Shareholder as of the date on which such Claim is asserted under Article VII to the extent the same becomes due and owing; provided, that with respect to a breach of any Company Fundamental Representation, the Parent shall also be entitled to recover from a Shareholder an additional amount equal to such Shareholder’s Pro Rata Portion of the Closing Merger Consideration (the “Shareholder Fundamental Indemnification”); provided further, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Shareholder indemnification obligations related to the Shareholder Fundamental Indemnification shall be several and not joint. With respect to the Contingent Merger Consideration paid in Parent Common Stock, the aggregate value thereof shall be deemed to be the closing price of such Parent Common Stock as of the time the Claim is finally determined as set forth in this Article VII, either by mutual agreement of the Parties following delivery of a Claim Notice, the failure of either Party to timely deliver a Shareholder Objection Notice or Parent Objection Notice, as applicable, or as finally determined pursuant to the decision of an arbitrator.

(b)The amount of any and all Losses shall be determined net of any amounts actually received by any Indemnified Party (net of any related costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith, including the direct costs of insurance premiums and deductibles relating to any such insurance proceeds) under or pursuant to any insurance coverage. The Indemnified Party shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to collect all amounts available and recoverable under any available insurance coverage; provided, however, that, (i) in no event, shall the expenditure of such efforts require the Indemnified Party to expend any such efforts prior to submitting a Claim for indemnification under this Agreement, and (ii) nothing provided herein shall require any Indemnified Party to avail itself of any available policies of self-insurance. In any case where an Indemnified Party recovers from such insurance coverage, any amount in respect of a matter for which such Indemnified Party was, prior to such recovery, indemnified pursuant to this ARTICLE VII, such Indemnified Party shall promptly pay over to the Representative Party for the Indemnifying Party any such amount to the extent previously recovered from the Indemnifying Party (after deducting therefrom the amount of the expenses incurred in procuring such recovery).

(c)Neither the Parent Indemnified Parties nor the Company Indemnified Parties shall be obligated to pay for the same Loss more than once under this ARTICLE VII, even if a claim for indemnification in respect of such Loss has been made as a result of a breach of more than one representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement; provided that, nothing herein is intended to bar multiple Claims for recovery of the same Loss stemming from multiple Third-Party Claims.

49

(d)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, except for claims based on Fraud, Losses shall in no event include any consequential damages or punitive, special, exemplary, incidental or indirect damages, or lost profits; provided, that, any such excluded damages shall be deemed to be “Losses” solely to the extent such damages were actually awarded pursuant to a Third-Party Claim.

Section 7.9Exclusive Remedies. The Parties acknowledge and agree that, from and after the Closing, their sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all Claims (other than claims for Fraud or claims for specific performance or other equitable relief) for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to or in any way arising from the subject matter of this Agreement, shall be to make a Claim for Losses pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this ARTICLE VII and the Parties hereby waive any other statutory and common law remedies or claims.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other agreement contemplated hereby, the Majority Holders may at any time, by written notice to the Shareholder Representative, remove or replace the Shareholder Representative, for any reason with or without cause, and designate another person to be Shareholder Representative for all purposes herein and therein. Promptly following the removal or replacement of the Shareholder Representative, the Majority Holders shall provide written notice thereof to Parent.

The Shareholder Representative shall not be Liable for any act done or omitted hereunder as Shareholder Representative while acting in good faith and in the exercise of its reasonable judgment as to the best interests of the Shareholders, and the Shareholder Representative shall incur no Liability to the Shareholders with respect to any action taken or suffered by the Shareholder Representative in reliance upon any notice, direction, instruction, consent, statement or other documents believed by it to be genuinely and duly authorized, nor for any other action or inaction with respect to the indemnification or other obligations of the Shareholders under this Article VIII, including the defense or settlement of any claims and the making of payments with respect thereto, except to the extent resulting from the Shareholder Representative’s own willful misconduct.

Section 9.11Severability. The provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed severable and the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions hereof; provided that if any provision of this Agreement, as applied to any Party or to any circumstance, is adjudged by a Governmental Body or arbitrator not to be enforceable in accordance with its terms, the Parties agree that the Governmental Body or arbitrator making such determination shall have the power to modify the provision in a manner consistent with its objectives such that it is enforceable, and/or to delete specific words or phrases, and in its reduced form, such provision shall then be enforceable and shall be enforced.

Section 9.12Construction. The Parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. If an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the Parties and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any Party because of the authorship of any provision of this Agreement.

If any Party has breached any representation, warranty, or covenant contained herein in any respect, the fact that there exists another representation, warranty, or covenant relating to a similar subject matter (regardless of the relative levels of specificity) which the Party has not breached shall not detract from or mitigate the fact that the Party is in breach of the first representation, warranty, or covenant.

Section 9.13Incorporation of Disclosure Schedules. Each of the Company Disclosure Schedule and Parent Disclosure Schedule is incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof (each, respectively, a “Disclosure Schedule”). Any item disclosed in any Disclosure Schedule referenced by a particular section of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been disclosed with respect to every other section of this Agreement if the matter has been described with reasonable particularity and the relevance of such disclosure to such other section is reasonably apparent. The specification of any dollar amount in the representations or warranties contained in this Agreement or the inclusion of any specific item in any Disclosure Schedule is not intended to imply that such amounts, or higher or lower amounts or the items so included or other items, are or are not material, and no Party shall use the fact of the setting of such amounts or the inclusion of any such item in any dispute or controversy as to whether any obligation, items or matter not described herein or included in a Disclosure Schedule is or is not material for purposes of this Agreement. The Disclosure Schedules and the information and disclosures contained therein are intended only to satisfy, qualify and/or limit the respective representations and warranties contained in this Agreement, and shall not be deemed to expand in any way the scope or effect of any such representations and warranties.
