All covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements or in any certificate or other writing delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the Closing and shall continue to remain in full force and effect in accordance with their express terms.

48

Provided that the Closing occurs, subject to the provisions of this Article VIII, Company Shareholders agree to jointly and severally, indemnify, reimburse and hold Parent and its officers, directors, stockholders and Affiliates, including the Surviving Corporation (the “Parent Indemnified Parties”), harmless against all claims, losses, Liabilities, damages, Taxes, deficiencies, costs and expenses, including reasonable accounting and auditors’ fees, attorneys’ fees and expenses of investigation and defense, interest, fines and penalties (hereinafter individually a “Loss” and collectively “Losses”) paid, incurred or sustained by the Indemnified Parties, or any of them (including the Surviving Corporation), directly or indirectly, as a result of, with respect to or in connection with (a) any breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty of the Company contained in this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements or in any certificate or other instruments delivered by or on behalf of the Company pursuant to this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements; (b) any failure by the Company to perform, fulfill or comply with any covenant or obligation applicable to it contained in this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements or in any certificate or other instruments delivered pursuant to this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements; (c) any Actions by any third parties with respect to the business or operations of the Company for any period on or prior to the Closing Date and (d) any Pre-Closing Taxes.

Section 8.03 Indemnification by the Parent. Provided that the Closing occurs, subject to the provisions of this Article VIII, Parent agrees to indemnify, reimburse and hold the Company Shareholders and their respective officers, directors, stockholders and Affiliates (the “Company Indemnified Parties”), harmless against all Losses paid, incurred or sustained by the Company Indemnified Parties, or any of them, directly or indirectly, as a result of, with respect to or in connection with (a) any breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty of the Parent or Merger Sub contained in this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements or in any certificate or other instruments delivered by or on behalf of the Parent or Merger Sub pursuant to this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements; (b) any failure by Parent or Merger Sub to perform, fulfill or comply with any covenant or obligation applicable to either of them contained in this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements or in any certificate or other instruments delivered pursuant to this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements; and (c) any Post-Closing Taxes.

Section 8.04 Procedure. The Party making a claim under this Agreement is referred to as the “Indemnified Party” and the Party against whom such claims are asserted under this Agreement is referred to as the “Indemnifying Party”.

(a) Third-Party Claims. If any Indemnified Party receives notice of the assertion or commencement of any Action made or brought by any Person who is not a party to this Agreement or an Affiliate of a party to this Agreement or a Representative of the foregoing (a “Third-Party Claim”) against such Indemnified Party with respect to which the Indemnifying Party is obligated to provide indemnification under this Agreement, the Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice thereof, but in any event not later than thirty (30) calendar days after receipt of such notice of such Third-Party Claim. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party forfeits rights or defenses by reason of such failure. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the Third-Party Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to participate in, or by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party, to assume the defense of any Third-Party Claim at the Indemnifying Party’s expense and by the Indemnifying Party’s own counsel, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate in good faith in such defense. In the event that the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third-Party Claim, subject to Section 8.04(b), it shall have the right to take such action as it deems necessary to avoid, dispute, defend, appeal or make counterclaims pertaining to any such Third-Party Claim in the name and on behalf of the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in the defense of any Third-Party Claim with counsel selected by it subject to the Indemnifying Party’s right to control the defense thereof, provided that the fees and disbursements of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party.

49

(b) Settlement of Third-Party Claims. 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, except as provided in this Section 8.04(b). If a firm offer is made to settle a Third-Party Claim without leading to 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 and obligations in connection with such Third-Party Claim and the Indemnifying Party desires to accept and agree to such offer, the Indemnifying Party shall give written notice to that effect to the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnified Party fails to consent to such firm offer within ten days after its receipt of such notice, the Indemnified Party may continue to contest or defend such Third-Party Claim and in such event, the maximum liability of the Indemnifying Party as to such Third-Party Claim shall not exceed the amount of such settlement offer. If the Indemnified Party fails to consent to such firm offer and also fails to assume defense of such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party may settle the Third-Party Claim upon the terms set forth in such firm offer to settle such Third-Party Claim. If the Indemnified Party has assumed the defense pursuant to Section 8.04(a), it shall not agree to any settlement without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

(c) Direct Claims. Any Action by an Indemnified Party on account of a Loss which does not result from a Third-Party Claim (a “Direct Claim”) shall be asserted by the Indemnified Party giving the Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice thereof, but in any event not later than thirty (30) calendar days after the Indemnified Party becomes aware of such Direct Claim. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party forfeits rights or defenses by reason of such failure. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the Direct Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) calendar days after its receipt of such notice to respond in writing to such Direct Claim. The Indemnified Party shall allow the Indemnifying Party and its professional advisors to investigate the matter or circumstance alleged to give rise to the Direct Claim, and whether and to what extent any amount is payable in respect of the Direct Claim and the Indemnified Party shall assist the Indemnifying Party’s investigation by giving such information and assistance as the Indemnifying Party or any of its professional advisors may reasonably request. If the Indemnifying Party does not so respond within such thirty (30) calendar day period, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have rejected such claim, in which case the Indemnified Party shall be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to the Indemnified Party on the terms and subject to the provisions of this Agreement.

50

(d) Cooperation. Upon a reasonable request made by the Indemnifying Party, each Indemnified Party seeking indemnification hereunder in respect of any Direct Claim, hereby agrees to consult with the Indemnifying Party and act reasonably to take actions reasonably requested by the Indemnifying Party in order to attempt to reduce the amount of Losses in respect of such Direct Claim. Any costs or expenses associated with taking such actions shall be included as Losses hereunder.

Section 8.05 Maximum Payments; Remedy.

(a) If the Closing occurs, the maximum amount all Parent Indemnified Parties may collectively recover from the Company Shareholders pursuant to the indemnity set forth in Section 8.02 shall be limited to the principal amount which remains due and payable pursuant to the Notes as of the date of the commencement of the applicable indemnification claim. In the event that the Company Shareholders become obligated to pay to any Parent Indemnified Party any indemnification amounts pursuant to the indemnity set forth in Section 8.02, the Parties acknowledge and agree that the principal amount of the Notes then outstanding shall be reduced by such amount to the extent possible, to be apportioned pro rata between all of the Notes then outstanding, and Parent shall cause the applicable amounts to thereafter be paid to the applicable Parent Indemnified Party(ies).

(b) If the Closing occurs, the maximum amount all Company Indemnified Parties may collectively recover from Parent pursuant to the indemnity set forth in Section 8.02 shall be limited to principal amount which remains due and payable pursuant to the Notes as of the date of the commencement of the applicable indemnification claim, which shall be paid in cash by Parent to the applicable Company Indemnified Party(ies).

(c) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no indemnification claims for Losses shall be asserted by the Parent Indemnified Parties under Section 8.02 or by the Company Indemnified Parties under Section 8.03 unless, in either case, (x) any individual Loss or group or series of related Losses under Section 8.02 or Section 8.03, as applicable, exceeds $10,000, whereupon the Parent Indemnified Parties or the Company Indemnified Parties, as applicable, shall be entitled to receive only amounts for Losses in excess of such amount, subject to the limitations set forth herein.

Section 8.06 Purchase Price Adjustments. Amounts paid to or on behalf of any Person as indemnification under this Agreement shall be treated as adjustments to the Merger Consideration.

Section 8.07 Sole Remedy. Following the Closing, the Parties agree that, except for the availability of injunctive or other equitable relief, the rights to indemnification under this Article VIII shall be the sole remedy that any Indemnified Party will have in connection with the Transactions.

Section 8.08 Knowledge. An Indemnified Party’s rights herein shall not be affected by any investigation conducted with respect to, or any knowledge acquired (or capable of being acquired) by, such Indemnified Party or any of its Representatives or Affiliates at any time, whether before or after the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the Effective Time. The waiver of any condition related to the accuracy of any representation or warranty, or on the performance of or compliance with any covenant or obligation, will not affect the right to indemnification or other remedy based upon any such representation, warranty, covenant or obligation.

51

Section 8.09 Limitation on Damages. In no event will any Party be liable to any other Party under or in connection with this Agreement or in connection with the Transactions for special, general, indirect, consequential, or punitive or exemplary damages, including damages for lost opportunity, even if the Party sought to be held liable has been advised of the possibility of such damage.

(c) by Parent, at any time prior to the Effective Time (notwithstanding the prior receipt of the Company Shareholder Approval), in the event the Company shall have breached any or defaulted under any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements under this Agreement such that the conditions set forth in Section 7.02 would not be satisfied, and such breach or default shall not have been cured within five (15) Business Days after the Company has received written notice of such breach from Parent (a “Company Default”);

52

Section 9.03 Termination Fees.

(a) In the event that the Company terminates this Agreement pursuant to the provisions of Section 9.01(d), and only in such case, then Parent shall pay to Company, as full and complete satisfaction of any and all Losses and Expenses incurred by the Company and the Company Shareholders hereunder, the sum of $100,000 within fifteen (15) Business Days of such termination, and provided that if such amount is not paid as required, the Company shall be entitled to bring an action for specific performance, damages or a combination of specific performance and damages.

(b) In the event that Parent terminates this Agreement pursuant to the provisions of Section 9.01(c), and only in such case, then the Company shall pay to Parent, as full and complete satisfaction of any and all Losses and Expenses incurred by Parent or Merger Sub hereunder, the sum of $100,000 within fifteen (15) Business Days of such termination, and provided that if such amount is not paid as required, Parent and Merger Sub shall be entitled to bring an action for specific performance, damages or a combination of specific performance and damages.

By virtue of the approval of the Merger and this Agreement by the Company Stockholder Approval, each of the Company Shareholders shall be deemed to have agreed to appoint the Shareholder Representative as its agent and attorney-in-fact, as the representative of, for and on behalf of, the Company Shareholders to take all actions under this Agreement that are to be taken by the Shareholder Representative, including to amend this Agreement, to waive any provision of this Agreement, to negotiate payments due pursuant to this Agreement, to give and receive notices and communications, to authorize payment to any Indemnified Party in satisfaction of claims by any Indemnified Party, to object to such payments, to agree to, negotiate, enter into settlements and compromises of, comply with orders of courts with respect to, and to assert any claims by any Indemnified Party against any Company Shareholder or by any such Company Shareholder against any Indemnified Party or any dispute between any Indemnified Party and any such Company Shareholder, in each case relating to this Agreement or the Transactions, and to take all other actions that are either (a) necessary or appropriate in the judgment of the Shareholder Representative for the accomplishment of the foregoing or (b) specifically mandated by the terms of this Agreement.

A decision, act, consent or instruction of the Shareholder Representative, including an amendment, extension or waiver of this Agreement, shall constitute a decision of the Company Shareholders and shall be final, binding and conclusive upon the Company Shareholders; and Parent may rely upon any such decision, act, consent or instruction of the Shareholder Representative as being the decision, act, consent or instruction of the Company Shareholders. Parent is hereby relieved from any liability to any Person for any decision, act, consent or instruction of the Shareholder Representative.

54

Article XI. Tax Matters

Section 11.01 Filing of Tax Returns; Payment of Taxes.

(a) From and after the Closing Date, the Surviving Corporation shall cause to be timely prepared and filed with the appropriate Governmental Authority all Tax Returns of the Company for all Pre-Closing Tax Periods that are required to be filed after the Closing Date, including for those jurisdictions and Governmental Authorities that permit or require a short period Tax Return for the period ending on the Closing Date. Except as otherwise may be approved by the Shareholder Representative in its sole discretion, all such Tax Returns for any Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period must be prepared (i) in accordance with applicable Law and (ii) consistent with the past practices of the Company or the applicable Company Subsidiary except as otherwise required by applicable Law. The Shareholder Representative shall cooperate fully and promptly in connection with the preparation and filing of such Tax Returns, subject to the provisions of Section 11.01(b).

(b) The Shareholder Representative will be given a reasonable opportunity, and in no event less than fifteen (15) Business Days, to review, comment upon, and approve any Tax Returns which relate to a Pre-Closing Tax Period or the Straddle Period or which could reasonably be expected to affect the Tax liability of a Company Shareholder (including any indemnification obligation with respect to Taxes pursuant this Agreement), such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(c) None of Parent or any of its Affiliates may (or after the Closing, may cause or permit the Company or the Company Subsidiaries to) amend, refile or otherwise modify (or grant an extension of any statute of limitations with respect to) any Tax Return relating in whole or in part to the Company or the Company Subsidiaries that relates to any Pre-Closing Tax Period except as otherwise required by applicable Law.

Section 11.02 Preparation and Filing of Pre-Closing and Post-Closing Period Tax Returns.

(a) The Surviving Corporation shall prepare, or cause to be prepared, and file, or cause to be filed, all Tax Returns of the Company for all Post-Closing Periods that are required to be filed after the Closing Date. The Surviving Corporation shall permit the Shareholder Representative to review and comment on each such Tax Return described in the preceding sentence prior to filing and shall make such revisions to such Tax Returns as are reasonably requested by the Shareholder Representative within 15 days of receipt of such Tax Returns.

(b) The Surviving Corporation shall prepare, or cause to be prepared, and file, or cause to be filed, all Tax Returns of the Company for Tax periods that begin on or before the Closing Date and end after the Closing Date (each a “Straddle Period”). The Surviving Corporation shall permit the Shareholder Representative to review and comment upon such Tax Returns and shall make such revisions to such Tax Returns as are reasonably requested by the Stockholder Representative within 15 days of receipt of such Tax Returns.

Section 11.03 Cooperation on Tax Matters. Subject to the provisions of Section 11.04, Parent, the Company and the Shareholder Representative shall cooperate, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other Party, in connection with the preparation and filing of Tax Returns required to be filed pursuant to this Article XI. Such cooperation will include the retention and (upon any other Party’s request) the provision of records and information that are reasonably required in connection with the preparation and filing of any such Tax Return. Parent and the Shareholder Representative will retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to the Company relating to any Taxable Period beginning before the Closing Date until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations (and, to the extent notified by Parent or the Shareholder Representative, any extensions thereof) of the respective Taxable Periods, and to abide by all Tax record retention agreements entered into with any Governmental Authority.

55

Section 11.04 Amended Tax Returns. Any amended Tax Return or refund claim the Company was required by applicable Law to file but failed to so file relating to a Pre-Closing Tax Period or a Straddle Period of the Company that is prepared and filed after the Closing Date shall be filed by Parent only after giving the Shareholder Representative a reasonable opportunity to review and consent to such amended Tax Return or refund claim, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, however, that if such amended Tax Return or refund claim could reasonably be expected to increase the Tax liability of a Company Shareholder (including any indemnification obligation with respect to Taxes pursuant to this Agreement), it will be reasonable for the Shareholder Representative to withhold consent from any such amendment or claim proposed by or on behalf of Parent to the extent that the Tax Return filings of the Company in the absence of filing such amended Tax Return or refund claim would be in accordance with applicable Law. Without the prior written consent of Shareholder Representative, Parent shall not make, change or rescind any Tax election, amend any Tax Return or take any position on any Tax Return, take any action, omit to take any action or enter into any other transaction that would have the effect of increasing the Tax liability or reducing any Tax asset of the Company or any Company Shareholder in respect of any Pre-Closing Tax Period.

Section 11.05 Audits and Contests with Respect to Taxes.

(a) Parent and the Shareholder Representative will notify the other in writing within fifteen (15) Business Days after receipt by Parent or the Shareholder Representative of written or oral notice of any pending or threatened audit or assessment with respect to Taxes of the Company or the Company Subsidiaries relating to any Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period.

(b) Parent shall control all audits and assessments with respect to Taxes occurring or received after the Closing Date, but to the extent that any such matter relates to a Pre-Closing Tax Period or the Pre-Closing portion of any Straddle Period that would increase the obligation of the Company Shareholders for Taxes, Parent agrees (i) to keep the Shareholder Representative reasonably informed of developments with respect to such audit or assessment, (ii) to negotiate with the relevant Governmental Authority for a resolution of such audit or assessment in good faith and in a manner that does not unfairly compromise Pre-Closing Taxes as compared to Post-Closing Taxes and (iii) to obtain the consent of the Shareholder Representative prior to the settlement of the portion of the audit or assessment relating to the Pre-Closing Tax Period, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

Section 11.06 Transfer Taxes. Notwithstanding Section 11.01, all federal, state, local, foreign and other transfers, sales, use or similar Taxes applicable to, imposed upon or arising out of the Transactions shall be borne equally by Parent and the Company.

Article XII. General Provisions

56

Section 12.02 Amendment. Subject to applicable Law and the other provisions of this Agreement, this Agreement may be amended by the Parties at any time only by execution of an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each Party; provided, however, that in the event that the Company has received the Company Shareholder Approval, no amendment shall be made to this Agreement that requires the approval of the Company Shareholders under applicable Law without obtaining the Company Shareholder Approval of such amendment. After the Effective Time, the Company Shareholders agree that any amendment of this Agreement signed by the Shareholder Representative shall be binding upon and effective against all Company Shareholders whether or not they have signed such Amendment.

Section 12.03 Extension; Waiver.

Any agreement on the part of a Party to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of such Party. Any delay in exercising any right under this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of such right. For purposes of this Section 12.03, the Company Shareholders agree that any extension or waiver signed by the Shareholder Representative shall be binding upon and effective against all Company Shareholders whether or not they have signed such extension or waiver.

Section 12.04 Notices.

This Agreement has been negotiated at arm’s-length by parties of equal bargaining strength, each represented by counsel or having had but declined the opportunity to be represented by counsel and having participated in the drafting of this Agreement.

Section 12.08 Commercially Reasonable Efforts. Subject to the terms and conditions herein provided, each Party shall use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to perform or fulfill all conditions and obligations to be performed or fulfilled by it under this Agreement so that the transactions contemplated hereby shall be consummated as soon as practicable, and to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Laws and regulations to consummate and make effective this Agreement and the transactions contemplated herein.

Section 12.09 Further Assurances.

58

(b) The Party claiming a Dispute shall deliver to each of the other Parties a written notice (a “Notice of Dispute”) that will specify in reasonable detail the dispute that the claiming Party wishes to have resolved. In any such arbitration pursuant to this Section 12.10, the Shareholder Representative shall have the power to act for and to bind the Company Shareholders and Parent shall have the power to act for and to bind Merger Sub. If the Company, the Shareholder Representative and the Parent are not able to resolve the dispute within five (5) Business Days of a Party’s receipt of an applicable Notice of Dispute, then such Dispute shall be submitted to binding arbitration in accordance with this Section 12.10.

(c) Any arbitration hereunder shall be conducted in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association then in effect. The Shareholder Representative and the Parent shall each select one arbitrator, and the two arbitrators so selected shall select a third arbitrator, and the three arbitrators shall resolve the Dispute. The arbitrators will be instructed to prepare in writing as promptly as practicable, and provide to the Parent and the Shareholder Representative, such arbitrators’ determination, including factual findings and the reasons on which the determination was based. The decision of the arbitrators will be final, binding and conclusive and will not be subject to review or appeal and may be enforced in any court having jurisdiction over the Parties.

(d) The arbitration shall be conducted in Los Angeles, California.

Section 12.12 Severability. In the event that any provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof, becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement will continue in full force and effect and the application of such provision to other Persons or circumstances will be interpreted so as reasonably to effect the intent of the Parties. The Parties further agree to replace such void or unenforceable provision of this Agreement with a valid and enforceable provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such void or unenforceable provision.

Section 12.13 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.

59

(b) The Parties hereby agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with its specific terms or was otherwise breached, and that money damages or other legal remedies would not be an adequate remedy for any such damages. Accordingly, the Parties acknowledge and hereby agree that in the event of any breach or threatened breach by a Party of any of its respective covenants or obligations set forth in this Agreement, any other Party shall be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions to prevent or restrain breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement by such Party, and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with, the covenants and obligations of such Party under this Agreement. Each Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with any such equitable or injunctive remedy.

Section 12.14 Governing Law. This Agreement and any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of, relating to or in connection with this Agreement, the negotiation, execution, existence, validity, enforceability or performance of this Agreement, or for the breach or alleged breach hereof (whether in contract, in tort or otherwise) shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of California without regard to the conflicts of law principles thereof.

Section 12.15 Consent to Jurisdiction and Venue; Waiver of Jury Trial.

(a) Each of the Parties hereby irrevocably submits to the personal jurisdiction of United States Federal Courts and the courts of the California, in each case located in Los Angeles County, California (the “Chosen Courts”) solely in respect of the interpretation and enforcement of the provisions of this Agreement and of the documents referred to in or contemplated by this Agreement, and in respect of the Transactions, or the negotiation, execution or performance hereof, and hereby waive, and agree not to assert, as a defense in any action, suit or proceeding for the interpretation or enforcement hereof or of any such document, that it is not subject thereto or that such action, suit or proceeding may not be brought or is not maintainable in the Chosen Courts or that any Chosen Court is an inconvenient forum or that the venue thereof may not be appropriate, or that this Agreement or any such document may not be enforced in or by such Chosen Court, and each of the Parties hereto irrevocably agrees that all claims, actions, suits and proceedings or other causes of action (whether at Law, in contract, in tort or otherwise) that may be based upon, arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the Transactions, or the negotiation, execution or performance hereof shall be heard and determined exclusively in the Chosen Courts. Each of the Parties hereby consents to and grants any such Chosen Court jurisdiction over the person of such Party and, to the extent permitted by Law, over the subject matter of such dispute and agrees that mailing of process or other papers in connection with any such action, suit or proceeding in the manner as may be permitted by Law shall be valid, effective and sufficient service thereof.

(b) Each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that any controversy which may arise under this Agreement is likely to involve complicated and difficult issues, and therefore each such Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right such Party may have to a trial by jury in respect of any action, suit or proceeding directly or indirectly arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Transactions. Each Party certifies and acknowledges that (i) no representative, agent or attorney of any other Party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such other Party would not, in the event of such action, suit or proceeding, seek to enforce the foregoing waiver, (ii) each of the Parties understands and has considered the implications of this waiver, and (iii) each Party makes this waiver voluntarily.

60

Section 12.16 Specific Performance. The Parties agree that irreparable damage would occur if any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with the terms hereof and that (i) provided that Parent does not terminate this Agreement pursuant to the provisions herein, Parent shall be entitled to specific performance of the terms hereof, in addition to any other remedy to which Parent is entitled at law or in equity; and (ii) provided that the Company does not terminate this Agreement pursuant to the provisions herein, the Company shall be entitled to specific performance of the terms hereof, in addition to any other remedy to which the Company is entitled at law or in equity. In the event that specific performance is granted to a Party pursuant to the terms and conditions herein, such Party shall also be entitled to be awarded its costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred solely in connection with obtaining such specific performance. The preceding sentence will not limit the right or ability of a Party seeking specific performance to recover damages, costs or expenses, under another provision of this Agreement or of any other document or agreement related hereto.

Section 12.17 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the Parties and delivered to the other Parties, it being understood that all Parties need not sign the same counterpart. The exchange of a fully executed Agreement (in counterparts or otherwise) by facsimile or by electronic delivery (including, without limitation, in .pdf or other scan format) shall be sufficient to bind the Parties to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
