EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY OF THE AGREEMENTS DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THE MERGER AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY. EACH PARTY HERETO CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (A) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE EITHER OF SUCH WAIVERS, (B) IT UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF SUCH WAIVERS, (C) IT MAKES SUCH WAIVERS VOLUNTARILY, AND (D) IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 6.06.

 

Section 6.07.        Exercise of Rights and Remedies.

 

(a)            Except as otherwise provided herein, any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a Party will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by law or equity upon such Party, and the exercise by a Party of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy.

 

(b)            The Parties acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached, and that money damages alone would not be an adequate remedy for such damages. Except as otherwise set forth in this Section 6.07, including the limitations set forth in Section 6.07(c), each Party shall be entitled to specific performance or injunctive or other equitable relief (without posting a bond or other security) to enforce or prevent any violations of any provision of this Agreement, in addition to all other rights and remedies available at law or in equity to such Party, including the right to claim money damages for breach of any provision of this Agreement. All rights, powers, and remedies provided under this Agreement or otherwise available in respect hereof at law or in equity shall be cumulative and not alternative, and the exercise or beginning of the exercise of any thereof by a Party shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise of any other such right, power or remedy by such Party.

(c)            The Parties’ right of specific enforcement is an integral part of the transactions contemplated hereby and each Party waives any objections to the grant of the equitable remedy of specific performance to prevent or restrain breaches of this Agreement by any other Party (including any objection on the basis that there is an adequate remedy at law or that an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or equity), and each Party shall be entitled to an order or injunction and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement to prevent or restrain breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with, the covenants and obligations of such Party under this Agreement in accordance with the terms of this Section 6.07. In the event any Party seeks an order or injunction to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, such Party shall not, in accordance with the terms of this Section 6.07, be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with such order or injunction.

 

Section 6.08.        Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Interim Investors Agreement, the Equity Commitment Letters, the Limited Guarantees, the Merger Agreement and the agreements contemplated hereby and thereby, constitute the entire agreement, and supersede all prior agreements, understandings, negotiations and statements, both written and oral, among the Parties and any of their Affiliates with respect to the subject matter contained herein except for such other agreements as are referenced herein which shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with their terms.

 

Section 6.09.        Assignment; No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Other than as provided herein, this Agreement and the rights, interests and obligations hereunder shall not be assigned by any Party (whether by operation of law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other Parties; provided that Parent may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement (in whole but not in part) in connection with a permitted assignment of the Merger Agreement by Parent, as applicable. Subject to the foregoing sentence, this Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective heirs, successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, shall be construed as giving any person, other than the Parties and their respective heirs, successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns any right, remedy, obligation, liability or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

Section 6.10.        No Presumption Against Drafting Party. Each Party acknowledges that it has been represented by independent counsel in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Accordingly, any rule of law or any legal decision that would require interpretation of any claimed ambiguities in this Agreement against the drafting Party has no application and is expressly waived.

 

Section 6.11.        Confidentiality. This Agreement shall be treated as confidential and may not be used, circulated, quoted or otherwise referred to in any document, except with the prior written consent of the Parties; provided, however, that each Party may, without such written consent, disclose the existence and content of this Agreement to its officers, directors, employees, partners, members, investors, financing sources, advisors (including financial and legal advisors) and any representatives of the foregoing and to the extent required by applicable Law, the applicable rules of any national securities exchange or in connection with any SEC filings relating to the Merger Agreement and the Transactions or in connection with any litigation relating to the Merger Agreement and the Transactions as permitted by or provided in the Merger Agreement and each Supporting Shareholder may disclose the existence and content of this Agreement to such Supporting Shareholder’s Non-Recourse Parties (as defined in the Limited Guarantees).
