The undersigned hereby represents and warrants that the undersigned has full power and authority to enter into this Lock-Up Agreement.

 

This Lock-Up Agreement and any claim, controversy or dispute arising under or related to this Lock-Up Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York regardless of the law that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of law thereof.
