2.6 Post-Closing Purchase Price Adjustment.

(a) Adjustment Statement. As soon as practicable but in no event later than 30 calendar days after the Closing Date, Buyer shall deliver to Sellers a statement (the “Adjustment Statement”) setting forth Buyer’s good faith calculation of the Net Working Capital as of immediately prior to the Closing without giving effect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby and determined in accordance with GAAP and the accounts listed on Exhibit B (the “Final Net Working Capital”), together with related supporting schedules, calculations and documentation.

(b) Review and Dispute. Within 30 calendar days following receipt by Sellers of the Adjustment Statement, Sellers shall either inform Buyer in writing that the Adjustment Statement is acceptable, or deliver written notice (the “Notice of Disagreement”) to Buyer of any dispute Sellers have with respect to the preparation or content of the Adjustment Statement or the amounts reflected therein. The Notice of Disagreement must describe in reasonable detail the items contained in the Adjustment Statement that Sellers dispute. If Sellers do not notify Buyer of a dispute with respect to the Adjustment Statement within such 30-day period, such Adjustment Statement and the amounts reflected in the Adjustment Statement will be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties. In the event a Notice of Disagreement is delivered to Buyer, Buyer and Sellers shall negotiate in good faith to resolve such dispute, and any determination resulting from such good faith negotiation shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties.

(c) Accounting Arbitrator. If Buyer and Sellers, notwithstanding such good faith effort, fail to resolve such dispute within 14 calendar days after Sellers deliver the Notice of Disagreement, then Buyer and Sellers jointly shall engage the Accounting Arbitrator to resolve such dispute in accordance with the standards set forth in this Section. Sellers and Buyer shall use reasonable efforts to cause the Accounting Arbitrator to render a written decision resolving the matters submitted to the Accounting Arbitrator within 30 calendar days of the making of such submission. The scope of the disputes to be resolved by the Accounting Arbitrator shall be limited to whether the items in dispute that were properly included in the Notice of Disagreement were prepared in accordance with GAAP and the accounts listed on Exhibit B, and the Accounting Arbitrator shall determine, on such basis, whether and to what extent, the Adjustment Statement and the amounts reflected therein, as applicable, require adjustment. The Accounting Arbitrator shall not make any other determination, including any determination as to whether the Target Net Working Capital Range is correct. The Accounting Arbitrator’s decision shall be based solely on written submissions by Sellers and Buyer and their respective representatives and not by independent review, and each of Sellers and Buyer shall have the opportunity to respond in writing to the other’s written submission. The Accounting Arbitrator shall address only those items in dispute and may not assign a value greater than the greatest value for such item claimed by any Party or smaller than the smallest value for such item claimed by any Party. The fees, costs and expenses of the Accounting Arbitrator shall be allocated between Sellers, on the one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand, in the same proportion that the aggregate amount of the disputed items submitted to the Accounting Arbitrator that is unsuccessfully disputed by each such Party (as finally determined by the Accounting Arbitrator) bears to the total amount of such disputed items so submitted. All determinations made by the Accounting Arbitrator will be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties.

(d) Access. For purposes of giving effect to the terms set forth in this Section, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Buyer shall cooperate with and make available to Sellers and their representatives all information, records, data, working papers (including those working papers of its accountants, subject to execution of access letters of its accountants), supporting schedules, calculations and other documentation that provides reasonable detail relating to Buyer’s calculation of the amounts set forth in the Adjustment Statement, and shall permit reasonable access to Buyer’s and Pipelogic’s facilities, personnel and accountants, as may be reasonably required in connection with the review or analysis of the Adjustment Statement or the amounts reflected therein and the resolution of any disputes in connection therewith.

(e) Downward Adjustment. If the low end of the Target Net Working Capital Range exceeds the Final Net Working Capital, then the Purchase Price will be adjusted downward by the amount by which the low end of the Target Net Working Capital Range exceeds the Final Net Working Capital (the “Downward Adjustment Amount”), and Buyer shall redeem from Sellers (pro rata as between the Sellers based on their relative number of Buyer Shares), for no consideration and without the necessity for any action on the part of any Seller, a number of Buyer Shares equal to the quotient of (i) the Downward Adjustment Amount and (ii) the Buyer Shares Issuance Price. Buyer shall cause such redemption to occur within five Business Days from the date on which the Downward Adjustment Amount is finally determined pursuant to this Section. Sellers hereby grant Buyer a limited power of attorney to execute and deliver appropriate documentation on Sellers’ behalf for such purpose.

(f) Upward Adjustment. If the Final Net Working Capital exceeds the high end of the Target Net Working Capital Range, then the Purchase Price will be adjusted upward by the amount by which the Final Net Working Capital exceeds the high end of the Target Net Working Capital Range (the “Upward Adjustment Amount”), and Buyer shall issue to Sellers (pro rata as between Sellers based on their relative number of Buyer Shares) an amount of Buyer Shares equal to the quotient of (i) the Upward Adjustment Amount and (ii) the Buyer Shares Issuance Price. Buyer shall cause such issuance to occur within five Business Days from the date on which the Upward Adjustment Amount is finally determined pursuant to this Section.

(g) No Adjustment. If the Final Net Working Capital is within the Target Net Working Capital Range, there shall be no adjustment to the Purchase Price pursuant to this Section.

If the Closing does not occur, the releases contemplated by this Section 6.2 shall be deemed null and void and of no further force or effect.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent Sellers from making a good faith report of possible violations of applicable Legal Requirements to any governmental agency or entity or making disclosures that are protected under the whistleblower provisions of applicable Legal Requirements, and Sellers shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that is: (1) made (x) in confidence to a federal, state or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney, and (y) solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; (2) made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal; or (3) protected under the whistleblower provisions of applicable Legal Requirements.

6.7 Tax Returns; Liability for Taxes; Other Tax Matters.

(a) Pre-Closing Tax Returns. Sellers will cause to be prepared each Tax Return of Pipelogic for a Pre-Closing Tax Period that is required to be filed by Pipelogic after the Closing Date (each, a “Pre-Closing Tax Return”).

At least thirty (30) days (or such shorter period as required to timely file such Tax Returns) prior to the due date for filing such Pre-Closing Tax Return, Sellers will deliver a copy of such Pre-Closing Tax Return, together with all supporting documentation and workpapers, to Buyer for its review and comment. Sellers will revise such Pre-Closing Tax Return to reflect any reasonable comments received from Buyer and, not later than five (5) days prior to the due date for filing such Pre-Closing Tax Return, will provide such revised Pre-Closing Tax Return to Buyer (executed, as may be required, by any present or former authorized owners or officers of Pipelogic) for filing by Buyer with the appropriate Governmental Authority. Not later than five (5) days prior to the due date for payment of Taxes with respect to such Pre-Closing Tax Return, Sellers will pay to (or at the direction of) Buyer the amount of any Seller Taxes with respect to such Pre-Closing Tax Return.

Buyer will cause such Straddle Tax Return (as revised to incorporate Sellers’ reasonable comments) to be filed timely with the appropriate Governmental Authority and will provide a copy to Sellers. Not later than five (5) days prior to the due date for payment of Taxes with respect to such Straddle Tax Return, Sellers will pay to (or at the direction of) Buyer the amount of any Seller Taxes with respect to such Straddle Tax Return.

(c) Proration of Straddle Period Taxes. In the case of Taxes that are payable with respect to any Straddle Period, the portion of any such Taxes that is attributable to the portion of such Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date shall be:

(i) in the case of Taxes that are imposed on a periodic basis with respect to assets or capital, deemed to be the amount of such Taxes for the entire Straddle Period (or, in the case of such Taxes determined on an arrears basis, the amount of such Taxes for the immediately preceding period), multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of calendar days in the portion of the period ending on and including the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire period; and

(ii) in the case of all other Taxes, deemed equal to the amount which would be payable if the relevant Straddle Period ended on and included the Closing Date; provided that exemptions, allowances, or deductions that are calculated on an annual basis (including depreciation and amortization deductions) shall be allocated between the portion of the Straddle Period ending on and including the Closing Date and the portion of the Straddle Period beginning after the Closing Date in proportion to the number of days in each period.

6.8 Cooperation on Tax Matters. Buyer and Sellers will cooperate fully as and to the extent reasonably requested by another Party in connection with the filing of Tax Returns and any audit, litigation, or other proceeding with respect to Taxes imposed on or with respect to the assets, operations or activities of Pipelogic (each a “Tax Proceeding”). Subject to Section 6.9, such cooperation will include the retention and (upon the other Party’s request) the provision of records and information which are reasonably relevant to any such Tax Proceeding. Notwithstanding the above, the control and conduct of any Tax Proceeding that is a Third-Party Claim shall be governed by Article VIII. Any information obtained by a Party or its Affiliates from another Party or its Affiliates in connection with any Tax matters to which this Agreement applies shall be kept confidential, except as may be otherwise necessary in connection with the filing of Tax Returns or claims for refund or in conducting an audit or other proceeding, or as may otherwise be necessary to enforce the provisions of this Agreement.

Buyer and Contributee shall cooperate in all reasonable respects with Sellers and will make available to it, during normal business hours, the Books and Records which relate to the period preceding the Closing Date and which are necessary or useful in connection with any third-party tax inquiry, audit or similar investigation or any dispute or litigation; provided, however, that prior to receiving access to any of the Books and Records, Sellers shall enter into a customary confidentiality agreement binding on it and any other person to whom the information may be disclosed; and provided further, however, that Buyer and Contributee shall be entitled to destroy Books and Records in accordance with a customary document retention policy.

6.10 Publicity. Except as required by a court of competent jurisdiction, applicable Legal Requirements, including applicable securities laws and regulations, or applicable rules and regulations of any stock exchange upon which the securities of a Party are listed or for disclosures required to be made in the financial statements of Buyer, Contributee or any of their Affiliates or in offering documents, none of the Parties hereto nor any of their respective Affiliates shall, without the prior consent of the other Parties (which shall not be unreasonably withheld), make any statement or any public announcement or press release with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The obligations of the Parties under this Section 6.10 shall not preclude a Party or its Affiliates from disclosing information to their respective investors, employees, beneficial owners or representatives or as such Party or its Affiliates reasonably deem to be appropriate in connection with fund raising, financing and marketing activities undertaken by such Party or its Affiliates (provided that the receiving parties are advised of the confidential nature thereof and agree to hold such information confidential in accordance with the foregoing).

6.11 Exculpation Among Buyer and Contributee Equityholders.

(b) Any information provided to or obtained by Buyer, Contributee or their respective representatives pursuant to Section 6.12(a) will be treated as if it were “Evaluation Material” (as defined in that certain letter agreement, dated April 3, 2018, entered into by Buyer for the benefit of Strike Capital (the “Confidentiality Agreement”)), and Buyer and Contributee shall be deemed to have the obligations with respect thereto that Buyer has with respect to Evaluation Material under the Confidentiality Agreement.

(c) Each of Sellers, Buyer and Contributee agrees to be bound by and comply with the provisions set forth in the Confidentiality Agreement as if each were a party to the Confidentiality Agreement and as if such provisions were set forth herein, and such provisions are hereby incorporated herein by reference.

6.13 Notice of Events. Prior to the Closing, each Party shall reasonably promptly notify each other Party in writing of (a) the occurrence or non-occurrence of any event or the existence of any fact or condition that would cause any condition set forth in Section 2.5(a), Section 2.5(c) or Section 2.5(d), as applicable, to not be satisfied, (b) any Claims in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement commenced or threatened against Contributee, Buyer, any Seller or Pipelogic, as the case may be, or (c) any written notice or other written material communication from any Governmental Authority in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided, that a Party’s good-faith failure to comply with this Section 6.13 shall not provide any other Party the right to terminate this Agreement or to abandon the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

6.14 Further Action. Subject to the terms and conditions herein provided, during the period from the date of this Agreement through the Closing or the earlier valid termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article IX, each of the Parties shall execute and deliver such documents and take such further actions as may be reasonably necessary or desirable to carry out the provisions hereof and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(b) Cap. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 8.2, in no event shall Buyer be required to make payments pursuant to Section 8.2(a)(i) that exceed in the aggregate the Purchase Price.

8.3 Indemnities of Contributee.

(a) Contributee Indemnified Liabilities. Subject to the provisions of this Article VIII, from and after the Closing, Contributee shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless (x) the Seller Indemnified Parties and (y) Buyer, Buyer’s Affiliates (other than Contributee), and their respective directors, stockholders, officers, partners, employees, agents, consultants, attorneys, representatives, successors, transferees and assignees from, against and in respect of any Damages or Claims that arise out of, relate to or result from any of the following described matters (herein collectively referred to as the “Contributee Indemnified Liabilities”): (i) any representation or warranty made by Contributee in this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents not having been true and correct as of the Closing Date (provided that (A) the text of any representation or warranty that refers to a specific date shall be deemed to continue to refer to such date and (B) any qualification as to materiality shall be disregarded) and (ii) any breach by Contributee of any covenant or obligation of Contributee in this Agreement.

(b) Cap. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 8.1, in no event shall Contributee be required to make payments pursuant to Section 8.3(a)(i) that exceed in the aggregate the Purchase Price.

8.4 Claim Procedures. Each party that desires to make a Claim for indemnification pursuant to this Article VIII (an “Indemnified Party”) shall provide notice (a “Claim Notice”) thereof in writing to Buyer (if the Indemnified Party is seeking indemnification pursuant to Section 8.2), to Sellers (if the Indemnified Party is seeking indemnification pursuant to Section 8.1) or to Contributee (if the Indemnified Party is seeking indemnification pursuant to Section 8.3) (“Indemnifying Party”), specifying the nature and basis for such claim and a copy of all papers served with respect to such claim (if any). For purposes of this Section 8.4, receipt by a party of written notice of any Third-Party Claim which gives rise to a Claim on behalf of such party shall require prompt delivery of a Claim Notice to the Indemnifying Party of the receipt of such Third-Party Claim; provided, however, that an Indemnified Party’s failure to send or delay in sending a Claim Notice shall not relieve an Indemnifying Party from liability hereunder with respect to such Claim except to the extent and only to the extent the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure or delay.

8.5 Calculation, Timing, Manner and Characterization of Indemnification Payments.

(a) Payments of all amounts owing by an Indemnifying Party as a result of a Third-Party Claim shall be made as and when damages with respect thereto are incurred by the Indemnified Party and within five (5) Business Days after the Indemnified Party makes demand therefor to the Indemnifying Party. Payments of all amounts owing by an Indemnifying Party other than as a result of a Third-Party Claim shall be made within five (5) Business Days after the later of (i) the date the Indemnifying Party is deemed liable therefor pursuant to this Article VIII or (ii) if disputed, the date of the adjudication of the Indemnifying Party’s liability to the Indemnified Party under this Agreement. All amounts due and payable hereunder (A) with respect to a Third-Party Claim, shall bear interest at the Past Due Rate from the date due and payable hereunder until the date paid and (B) with respect to a claim other than a Third-Party Claim, shall bear interest at the Past Due Rate from the date the Indemnified Party suffers the damages until the date paid.

(b) Any indemnity payments made hereunder shall be treated for all Tax purposes as an adjustment to the Purchase Price unless otherwise required by applicable Legal Requirements following a Final Determination.

8.6 Recovery. In the event Damages suffered by any Indemnified Party are recoverable under more than one provision of this Agreement and even though an Indemnified Party is permitted to rely on each provision of Article VIII independently (as contemplated in Section 8.9), such Indemnified Party shall only be permitted to recover with respect to any particular Damages suffered by it one time as it is the Parties’ intent that once any particular Damages have been recovered by a particular Indemnified Party under one provision, such Damages no longer exist with respect to such Indemnified Party and, therefore, recovery by such particular Indemnified Party for such same Damages under another provision would constitute an unintended and prohibited “double” recovery. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Indemnified Party shall be entitled to seek recovery under such provisions of this Agreement that maximizes its recovery (e.g., if particular Damages would be subject to the Deductible if a Claim were made under one provision but would not be subject to the Deductible if made under another provision, or if Damages would be time barred under Section 8.1(c) if a Claim were made under one provision but would not be time barred if made under another provision or if Damages would not be recoverable under Section 8.1(a)(i) as a result of a limitation of a representation or warranty to the Knowledge of Sellers but would be recoverable under the indemnification included in Section 8.1(a)(iii), then the Indemnified Party may seek recovery under the provision that is not subject to the Deductible or is not time barred or not subject to the knowledge qualification).

8.7 Offset Rights and Limitations.

(a) If any amounts are owing to any Contributee Indemnified Party from a Seller in accordance with this Agreement and such amounts are not paid to such Contributee Indemnified Party within the appropriate time period specified in this Agreement, then, in each case, such Contributee Indemnified Party may elect to (but will not be required to elect), if agreed upon by Contributee, pursue remedies directly against such Seller, and may offset any amounts finally determined in accordance with this Agreement as owing by such Seller to such Contributee Indemnified Party against any Buyer Shares held by such Seller on a dollar for dollar basis pursuant to the terms of this Section 8.7 and the Pledge Agreements.

(b) If any Contributee Indemnified Party chooses to offset any amounts finally determined in accordance with this Agreement as owing by a Seller to such Contributee Indemnified Party against the Buyer Shares in accordance with Section 8.7(a), such Contributee Indemnified Party will give notice in accordance with Section 10.2 to such Seller of its decision. Such Seller will then have a period of fifteen (15) days following receipt of such notice in which to elect to pay such Contributee Indemnified Party in cash the amounts for which such Seller is liable. If such Seller does not pay such amounts in cash within such 15-day period, Contributee will be permitted to have forfeited and cancelled, at the end of such 15-day period, Buyer Shares owned by such Seller having a fair market value (as reasonably determined by Buyer in its sole discretion) equal to the amounts owed by such Seller to such Contributee Indemnified Party. Each Seller hereby grants Contributee a limited power of attorney to execute and deliver appropriate documentation on such Seller’s behalf for such purpose.

8.8 Survival. Except to the extent expressly limited by this Agreement, the representations, warranties, and indemnities set forth in this Article VIII shall survive the Closing and delivery of the Transaction Documents in accordance with their respective terms.

8.9 Reliance. The Parties acknowledge and agree that any of the subsections of Section 8.1 may be relied upon independently of and without regard to any other of such subsections more specifically or generally covering the same subject matter and without regard to the knowledge of any party entitled to the benefits of the provisions of Article VIII.

8.10 Control of Third-Party Claims.

(a) In the event of the assertion of any Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party, at its option, may assume (with legal counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party) at its sole cost and expense the defense of such Third-Party Claim if it acknowledges to the Indemnified Party in writing its obligations to indemnify the Indemnified Party with respect to all elements of such Third-Party Claim and may assert any defense of the Indemnified Party or the Indemnifying Party; provided that the Indemnified Party shall have the right at its own expense to participate jointly with the Indemnifying Party in the defense of any such Third-Party Claim. Counsel representing both the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party must acknowledge in writing its obligation to act as counsel for all parties being represented and must acknowledge and respect separate attorney-client privileges with respect to each party represented. If the Indemnifying Party elects to undertake the defense of any Third-Party Claim hereunder, the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in the defense or settlement of the Third-Party Claim, including providing access to information, making documents available for inspection and copying, and making employees available for interviews, depositions and trial. The Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to settle any Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(b) If the Indemnifying Party, by the 30th day after receipt of notice of any Third-Party Claim (or, if earlier, by the tenth day preceding the day on which an answer or other pleading must be served in order to prevent judgment by default in favor of the person asserting such Third-Party Claim) does not assume actively and in good faith the defense of any such Third-Party Claim or action resulting therefrom, the Indemnified Party may, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, defend against such claim or litigation, after giving notice of the same to the Indemnifying Party, on such terms as the Indemnified Party may deem appropriate, and the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in (but not control) the defense of such action, with its counsel and at its own expense. The Indemnified Party shall not settle or compromise any Third-Party Claim for which it is entitled to indemnification hereunder, without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

(c) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 8.10 to the contrary, Buyer shall in all cases be entitled to control the defense of a Third-Party Claim if Buyer reasonably believes (i) such Third-Party Claim could result in liabilities which, taken together with other then outstanding Claims by Buyer under this Agreement, could exceed the remaining potential Damages payable by Sellers under this Agreement or the amount that Buyer believes they will be able to collect from Sellers under this Agreement or (ii) such Third-Party Claim could adversely affect in any material respect Buyer or its Affiliates other than as a result of money damages or if injunctive or other non-monetary relief has been sought against Buyer or its Affiliates.

8.11 Express Negligence. THE PARTIES HERETO INTEND THAT THE INDEMNITIES SET FORTH IN THIS ARTICLE VIII BE CONSTRUED AND APPLIED AS WRITTEN ABOVE, NOTWITHSTANDING ANY RULE OF CONSTRUCTION TO THE CONTRARY. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, BUT LIMITED TO THE EXTENT PROVIDED ABOVE, SUCH INDEMNITIES SHALL APPLY NOTWITHSTANDING ANY STATE’S “EXPRESS NEGLIGENCE” OR SIMILAR RULE THAT WOULD DENY COVERAGE BASED ON AN INDEMNIFIED PARTY’S SOLE OR CONCURRENT, ACTIVE OR PASSIVE NEGLIGENCE. IT IS THE INTENT OF THE PARTIES THAT, TO THE EXTENT PROVIDED ABOVE, THE INDEMNITIES SET FORTH IN THIS ARTICLE VIII SHALL APPLY TO AN INDEMNIFIED PARTY’S SOLE OR CONCURRENT, ACTIVE OR PASSIVE NEGLIGENCE. THE PARTIES AGREE THAT THIS PROVISION IS “CONSPICUOUS” FOR PURPOSES OF ALL STATE LAWS.

8.12 Exclusive Remedy. In the absence of fraud, the indemnification provisions in this Article VIII will be the sole and exclusive remedy and recourse for any breach of this Agreement by the Parties, or for any Claim by Buyer or Contributee relating to Pipelogic, the Pipelogic Assets, or the Pipelogic Business. In addition, (a) in the event of a breach or threatened breach by a Seller of any of the provisions of Sections 6.2 or 6.5, each of Buyer and Contributee shall be entitled to immediate injunctive relief, as Sellers acknowledge and agree that any such breach would cause each of Buyer and Contributee irreparable injury for which they would have no adequate remedy at law; and (b) any Party hereto shall be entitled to seek specific performance against any other Party hereto pursuant to Section 10.10.

Each Party irrevocably agrees not to assert (a) any objection which it may ever have to the laying of venue of any such Claim in the Delaware Court of Chancery in New Castle County, or in the event (but only in the event) that such court does not have subject matter jurisdiction over such Claim, the United States District Court for the District of Delaware and (b) any claim that any such Claim brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. TO THE EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LEGAL REQUIREMENTS WHICH CANNOT BE WAIVED, EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVES, AND AGREES TO CAUSE EACH OF ITS AFFILIATES TO WAIVE, AND COVENANTS THAT NEITHER IT NOR ANY OF HIS, HER OR ITS AFFILIATES WILL ASSERT (WHETHER AS PLAINTIFF, DEFENDANT OR OTHERWISE) ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY FORUM IN RESPECT OF ANY CLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR BASED UPON THIS AGREEMENT OR THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF, IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING. EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN INFORMED BY THE OTHER PARTIES THAT THIS SECTION 10.3 CONSTITUTES A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT UPON WHICH THE PARTIES ARE RELYING AND WILL RELY IN ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY OTHER AGREEMENTS RELATING HERETO OR CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

10.4 Entire Agreement; Amendments and Waivers. This Agreement, together with all Exhibits, Annexes and Schedules hereto, and the other Transaction Documents constitute the entire agreement between the Parties pertaining to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements, understandings, negotiations and discussions, whether oral or written, of the Parties, and there are no other warranties, representations or other agreements between the Parties in connection with the subject matter hereof. No amendment, supplement, modification or waiver of this Agreement shall be binding unless executed in writing by all Parties hereto. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed or shall constitute a waiver of any other provision hereof (whether or not similar), nor shall such waiver constitute a continuing waiver unless expressly agreed to in writing by the affected Party.

10.5 Multiple Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

10.7 Invalidity. In the event that any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement or in any other instrument referred to herein shall, for any reason, be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Agreement or any other such instrument.

10.8 No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is solely for the benefit of the Parties hereto, the Seller Indemnified Parties, the Contributee Indemnified Parties and their successors and assigns permitted under this Agreement, and no provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed to confer upon any other Persons any remedy, claim, liability, reimbursement, cause of action or other right except as expressly provided herein.

10.9 No Presumption Against Any Party. Neither this Agreement nor any uncertainty or ambiguity herein shall be construed or resolved against any Party, whether under any rule of construction or otherwise. On the contrary, this Agreement has been reviewed by each of the Parties and their counsel and shall be construed and interpreted according to the ordinary meaning of the words used so as to fairly accomplish the purposes and intentions of all Parties hereto.

10.10 Specific Performance. Each of the Parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that the other Parties hereto would be damaged irreparably in the event any of the provisions of this Agreement are not performed in accordance with their specific terms or otherwise are breached. Accordingly, each of the Parties hereto agrees that the other Parties hereto shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of the provisions of this Agreement and to enforce specifically this Agreement and the terms and provisions hereof in any action instituted in any court of the United States or any State thereof having jurisdiction over the Parties hereto and the matter, in addition to any other remedy to which they may be entitled, at law or in equity.
