No Seller or any Related Person of Sellers or of any Acquired Company is, or since [the first day of the next to last completed fiscal year of the Acquired Companies] has owned (of record or as a beneficial owner) an equity interest or any other financial or profit interest in, a Person that has (i) had business dealings or a material financial interest in any transaction with any Acquired Company [other than business dealings or transactions conducted in the Ordinary Course of Business with the Acquired Companies at substantially prevailing market prices and on substantially prevailing market terms], or (ii) engaged in competition with any Acquired Company with respect to any line of the products or services of such Acquired Company (a "Competing Business") in any market presently served by such Acquired Company [except for less than one percent of the outstanding capital stock of any Competing Business that is publicly traded on any recognized exchange or in the over-the- counter market]. Except as set forth in Part 3.25 of the Disclosure Letter, no Seller or any Related Person of Sellers or of any Acquired Company is a party to any Contract with, or has any claim or right against, any Acquired Company.

Related Party Agreements 34 7.5 Cooperation................................................... 34 7.6 Conduct of Business Pending Closing........................... 35 7.7

Authority Relative to this Agreement Subject to the approval and adoption of this Agreement by the Company’s stockholders, the Company has all necessary corporate power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement, to perform its obligations hereunder and to consummate the Transactions. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company and the consummation by the Company of the Transactions have been duly and validly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Company, and no other corporate proceedings on the part of the Company are necessary to authorize this Agreement or to consummate the Transactions (other than, with respect to the Merger, the approval and adoption of this Agreement by the holders of a majority of the then-outstanding shares of Company Class A Common Stock, if and to the extent required by applicable law, and the filing and recordation of appropriate merger documents as required by the DGCL). This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by the Company and, assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery by the other parties hereto, constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency (including, without limitation, all laws relating to fraudulent transfers), reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to the effect of general principles of equity (regardless of whether considered in a proceeding at law or in equity). The Company Board has approved this Agreement, the Voting Agreements and the Transactions and such approvals are sufficient so that the restrictions on business combinations set forth in Section 203(a) of the DGCL shall not apply to the Merger or any of the Transactions. To the knowledge of the Company, no other state takeover statute is applicable to the Merger or the other Transactions.
Certain Relationships and Related Transactions No relationship, direct or indirect, exists between or among any Partnership Entity, on the one hand, and the directors, officers, members, partners, stockholders, customers or suppliers of any Partnership Entity, on the other hand, that is required to be disclosed in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus (or any documents incorporated by reference therein) that is not so described.
PAYMENT OF INDEBTEDNESS BY RELATED PERSONS Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, Sellers will cause all indebtedness owed to an Acquired Company by either Seller or any Related Person of either Seller to be paid in full prior to Closing.
Related Entities If Tenant is a legal entity, the transfer (by one or more transfers), directly or indirectly, by operation of law or otherwise, of a majority of the stock or other beneficial ownership interest in Tenant or of all or substantially all of the assets of Tenant (collectively “Ownership Interests”) shall be deemed a voluntary assignment of this Lease; provided, however, that the provisions of this Article 13 shall not apply to the transfer of Ownership Interests in Tenant if and so long as Tenant is publicly traded on a nationally recognized stock exchange. For purposes of this Article, the term “transfers” shall be deemed to include (x) the issuance of new Ownership Interests which results in a majority of the Ownership Interests in Tenant being held by a person or entity which does not hold a majority of the Ownership Interests in Tenant on the Effective Date and (y) except as provided below, the sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of Tenant in one or more transactions and the merger or consolidation of Tenant into or with another business entity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the prior consent of Landlord shall not be required with respect to an assignment or sublease to a Related Entity, or to a business entity into or with which Tenant is merged or consolidated, or to which all or substantially all of Tenant’s assets or all or substantially all of Tenant’s stock are transferred, so long as (i) such transfer was made for a legitimate independent business purpose and not for the purpose of transferring this Lease, (ii) the sublessee or assignee (as applicable) has a Net Worth at least equal to the Net Worth of Tenant as of the Effective Date, and (iii) proof satisfactory to Landlord of such Net Worth is delivered to Landlord at least ten (10) days prior to the effective date of any such transaction (or promptly thereafter if prior notice is prohibited by any applicable Requirements). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Tenant hereunder succeeds to the interest of Tenant in this Lease in violation of the terms and conditions of this Lease, such Tenant shall have no right to assign this Lease or sublease all or any portion of the Premises without Landlord’s prior written consent notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 13.6.
Corporate Authority Relative to this Agreement; No Violation (a) Parent and Merger Sub have all requisite corporate power and authority to enter into this Agreement and, subject (in the case of the issuance of shares of Parent Stock in connection with the Merger) to receipt of the Parent Shareholder Approval, to consummate the Transactions, including the Merger. The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the Transactions have been duly and validly authorized by the Parent Board of Directors and, except for (i) the filing of the Certificate of Merger with the DSOS, and (ii) in the case of the issuance of shares of Parent Stock in connection with the Merger, the receipt of the Parent Shareholder Approval, no other corporate proceedings on the part of Parent or any Parent Subsidiary are necessary to authorize the consummation of the Transactions. On or prior to the date hereof, the Parent Board of Directors has unanimously (x) resolved that this Agreement and the Transactions, including the Merger, are fair to and in the best interests of Parent and the shareholders of Parent, (y) approved and declared advisable this Agreement and the Transactions, including the Merger, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein and (z) adopted a resolution to recommend that the shareholders of Parent vote in favor of the approval of the issuance of shares of Parent Stock in connection with the Merger, in each case, subject to Section 5.4 (the “Parent Board Recommendation”), and to include the Parent Board Recommendation in the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus. Parent, as sole stockholder of Merger Sub, has duly executed and delivered to Merger Sub a written consent adopting this Agreement, such written consent by its terms to become effective immediately following the execution of this Agreement. This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by Parent and Merger Sub and, assuming this Agreement constitutes the valid and binding agreement of the Company, constitutes the valid and binding agreement of Parent and Merger Sub, enforceable against Parent and Merger Sub in accordance with its terms, except that (i) such enforcement may be subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, examinership, reorganization, moratorium or other similar Laws, now or hereafter in effect, relating to creditors’ rights generally and (ii) equitable remedies of specific performance and injunctive and other forms of equitable relief may be subject to equitable defenses and to the discretion of the court before which any proceeding therefor may be brought.
