REGISTRATION

Section 2.1 Exercise of Demand. At any time, a Holder or Holders (each, a "Requesting Holder") may deliver a written request to the Company in accordance with Section 8.3 (a "Demand") that the Company effect a registration with respect to the Registrable Securities under the Securities Act; provided, however, that the anticipated aggregate number of shares of such Demand exceed 1% of the issued and outstanding Common Stock. Such Demand shall specify the number of Registrable Securities such Requesting Holder intends to include in such registration and the methods by which such Requesting Holder intends to sell or dispose of such Registrable Securities (including whether such Requesting Holder intends to distribute the Registrable Securities by means of an underwritten offering). As soon as practicable after receipt of such Demand, the Company shall, subject to the terms and conditions of this Article II, use its best efforts to effect such registration (including by using reasonable efforts to file a Registration Statement (and executing an undertaking to file any amendments thereto) covering the Registrable Securities so requested to be registered, using its best efforts to cause such filed Registration Statement to become effective promptly, and to qualify such Registrable Securities under applicable blue sky or other securities laws of any state of the United States of America to the extent set forth herein and complying with applicable regulations issued under the Securities Act and any other governmental requirements or regulations) as may be so requested and as would permit or facilitate the sale and distribution in an underwritten offering of all or such portion of such Registrable Securities as are specified in such request; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to take any action to effect, or keep effective, any such registration, qualification or compliance pursuant to this Section 2.1 as follows:

(a) within six (6) months after the Effective Date of a prior Registration Statement effected in response to a request from any Holder pursuant to this Section 2.1 or within six (6) months after the Effective Date of any other Registration Statement effected by the Company for a public offering of Registrable Securities, including pursuant to the Existing RRA;

(b) for a period of not more than ninety (90) days past the time the Company would otherwise be required to file such Registration Statement if the Board, prior to the time the Company would otherwise have been required to file such Registration Statement pursuant to this Section 2.1, determines in its good faith judgment that the filing of such Registration Statement would be seriously detrimental to the completion of a merger or consolidation in which the Company is a participant (a "Valid Business Reason"); provided, however, that such right to delay the filing of such Registration Statement shall be exercised by the Company not more than once in any thirty-six (36) month period, and the Company shall only have the right to delay such filing for only so long as such Valid Business Reason exists;

(c) if at such time the Company has, in response to requests from any such Requesting Holder or any Requesting Holder's predecessors in interest pursuant to this Section 2.1, effected the registration of Registrable Securities and has sold such Registrable Securities on at least six (6) prior occasions; provided that (i) for purposes of determining the number of demand registrations effected by a Requesting Holder and its predecessors in interest, Weather II and Qualifying Transferees acquiring Registrable Securities directly or indirectly from Weather II shall count as one Holder, and (ii) if the Company withdraws a registration of Registrable Securities at the request of any Requesting Holder at any time after the filing of a Registration Statement that is a matter of public record at the SEC, then such withdrawn Registration Statement shall count as a registration by such Requesting Holder; provided, however, that if any Requesting Holder withdraws from a registration because such Requesting Holder has learned of a material adverse change in the financial condition, business or prospects of the Company which was not known to such Requesting Holder at the time of its request and the Company failed to disclose such material adverse change to such Requesting Holder, then such withdrawn Registration Statement shall not count as a registration by such Requesting Holder; or

(d) if the Requesting Holders propose to dispose of Registrable Securities that may be immediately registered on Form F-3 pursuant to a request made pursuant to Section 2.3 below and the Company promptly takes all actions necessary to effect a registration of all Requesting Holders’ Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 2.3 below; provided that any registration of a Requesting Holder’s Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 2.3 shall not constitute a demand for registration pursuant to Section 2.1.

Section 2.2 Limitations on Subsequent Registration Rights. The Company shall not enter into any agreement with any holder or prospective purchaser of any securities of the Company that would allow such holder or prospective purchaser to require the Company to include shares or securities in any registration initiated under Section 2.1, if applicable, nor shall the Company include any shares or securities for its own account in any such registration, without the prior written consent of Weather II.

Section 2.3 Shelf Registration.

(a) Upon the written request of a Holder or Holders requesting that the Company file a Registration Statement for a delayed or continuous offering pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act (or any successor rule or regulation thereto) (together with the prospectus included therein, all amendments and supplements thereto and all exhibits and materials incorporated by reference therein, the "Shelf Registration Statement") with respect to the resale of the Registrable Securities in the United States (a "Shelf Registration Request"), the Company will, as soon as practicable, file a Shelf Registration Statement, and will use its commercially reasonable best efforts to cause such Shelf Registration Statement to be declared effective by the SEC as soon as possible after such filing (a "Shelf Registration"). Each Shelf Registration Statement filed in connection with a Shelf Registration Request shall cover all of the Registrable Securities. The Company will use all commercially reasonable efforts to keep such Shelf Registration Statement (A) continuously effective, supplemented and amended (subject to customary "blackout periods" pending the release of earnings announcements or the publication of financial statements of the Company, such blackout periods to be notified by the Company to the Holders and to be as limited as reasonably possible) and (B) available for resales of the Registrable Securities by the Holders (subject to such "blackout periods"); provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to take any action to effect any such registration, qualification or compliance pursuant to this Section 2.3 if Form F-3 is not available to the Company for such offering.

(b) If the Company’s Board of Directors determines in its good faith judgment that the effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement would be seriously detrimental to the completion of a merger or consolidation in which the Company is a participant (and so confirms to the Holders in a letter addressed to them from the Company’s chief financial officer), then the Company may allow the Shelf Registration Statement to fail to be effective or the prospectus contained therein to be unusable as a result of such non-disclosure for up to ninety (90) days in any year during the period of effectiveness.

Section 2.4 Underwriting. The Company (together with each Holder(s) proposing to distribute Registrable Securities through such underwriting) shall, upon request of the lead managing underwriter selected for such underwriting by the Requesting Holder(s) (which lead managing underwriter shall be reasonably acceptable (taking into account, among other things, whether such underwriter is of international standing) to the Company), enter into any reasonable agreement requested by such lead managing underwriter in connection with the offering, including, but not limited to, an underwriting agreement in customary form with such lead managing underwriter; provided, however, that (a) the Company shall be permitted to select a joint lead managing underwriter for such offering (which underwriter shall be reasonably acceptable to the Requesting Holder(s)); and (b) in no event shall the Company be required to include Registrable Securities for its own account in such offering. If a Holder disapproves of the terms of the underwriting, such Holder may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company and the lead managing underwriter, delivered at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the Effective Date of the Registration Statement. Any Registrable Securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be excluded and withdrawn from the registration.

Section 2.5 Derivatives. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Company acknowledges that the transactions intended to be covered by the registration obligations in this Article II include, without limitation, sales of Registrable Securities by transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest to a Requesting Holder; sales or loans by a Requesting Holder or third parties pursuant to derivative or other transactions in connection with which Registrable Securities are to be delivered; and the sale or delivery of Registrable Securities in connection with the sale by the Requesting Holder or a third party of securities exchangeable for or convertible into Registrable Securities or upon exchange or conversion of such securities; provided, however, that any party referred to above who is not a Holder as defined in this Agreement would only be entitled to make a Demand under Section 2.1 of this Agreement and then only if such Demand has been specifically agreed to in writing by the relevant Holder (in advance or at the time of the Demand), with a copy to the Company, and such third party has agreed to be bound by the obligations herein applicable to a Holder making a Demand; and provided further, that any Demand by such third party would have to comply with, and would be taken into account for purposes of, the limitations applicable to the Demand or the relevant Holder under Section 2.1.

(a) To the extent permitted by law, the Company will indemnify each Holder, each of its officers, directors, partners and agents, and each Person controlling such Holder (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act), with respect to any registration, qualification, compliance or sale which has been effected pursuant to this Agreement, and each underwriter, if any, and each Person who controls any underwriter (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act), against all expenses, claims, losses, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), including any of the foregoing incurred in settlement of any litigation, commenced or threatened, arising out of or based on any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, prospectus, offering circular or other document, or any amendment or supplement thereto, incident to any such registration, qualification or compliance or sale, or based on any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading, or any violation (or alleged violation) by the Company of (i) the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any rule or regulation promulgated thereunder, (ii) the securities or similar laws of any state or other jurisdiction in which Registrable Securities are sold in an underwritten offering or (iii) if the Registrable Securities are sold in a non-underwritten offering effected pursuant to Article II, the securities laws of those jurisdictions in which the Holders have requested registration or qualification of the Registrable Securities covered by the request (unless the Company shall have notified such Holder in a timely manner that such registration or qualification is not available or has not been made for a reason permitted by the Agreement), or in which the Company has notified such Holder that the Registrable Securities have otherwise been registered and qualified or are eligible for sale, in each case, applicable to the Company in connection with any such registration, qualification, compliance or sale, and the Company will reimburse or pay for the account of each Holder, each of its officers, directors, partners and agents, each Person controlling such Holder, each such underwriter and each Person who controls any such underwriter, for any legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred (as and when incurred) in connection with investigating, preparing the defense of or defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action, provided that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such claim, loss, damage, liability or expense arises out of or is based on any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission, made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company in writing by such Holder, such controlling person or underwriter and stated to be specifically for use therein.

(b) To the extent permitted by law, each Holder will, if Registrable Securities held by such Holder are included in the securities as to which such registration, qualification or compliance is being effected, indemnify the Company, each of its directors and officers, each underwriter, if any, of the Company's securities covered by such a Registration Statement, each Person who controls the Company or such underwriter (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act), and any other Person participating in such registration, each of its officers and directors and each Person controlling (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act) such Person participating in such registration, against all claims, losses, damages and liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arising out of or based on any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any such Registration Statement, prospectus, offering circular or other document, or any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse or pay for the account of the Company, such Persons, such directors, officers, Persons, underwriters or control Persons for any legal or any other expenses reasonably incurred (as and when incurred) in connection with investigating, preparing the defense of or defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent that such untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) or omission (or alleged omission) is made in such Registration Statement, prospectus, offering circular or other document in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company in writing by such Holder and stated to be specifically for use therein; provided, however, that the liability of such Holder for indemnification under this Section 5.1(b) shall not exceed the net proceeds from the offering received by such Holder.

(c) Each Party entitled to indemnification under this Section 5.1 (the "Indemnified Party") shall give notice to the Party required to provide indemnification (the "Indemnifying Party") promptly after such Indemnified Party has actual knowledge of any claim as to which indemnity may be sought and shall permit the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of any such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom; provided that counsel for the Indemnifying Party, who shall conduct the defense of such claim or litigation, shall be approved by the Indemnified Party (which approval shall not unreasonably be withheld), and the Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at such Indemnified Party's expense; provided further that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Agreement except to the extent that the failure to give such notice is materially prejudicial to an Indemnifying Party's ability to defend such action. No Indemnifying Party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall, except with the consent of each Indemnified Party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.

(d) The obligations of the Company and each Holder under this Section 5.1 shall survive the completion of any offering of Registrable Securities in a Registration Statement pursuant to this Agreement.

(e) If a claim for indemnification under Section 5.1(a) or Section 5.1(b) is available by its terms but is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an Indemnified Party, then each Indemnifying Party in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of any such claim, loss, liability or action that otherwise would have been indemnified under Section 5.1(a) or Section 5.1(b), as the case may be, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party, on the one hand, and the Indemnified Party, on the other, in connection with the statements, omissions, actions or inactions that resulted in such claim, loss, liability or action, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party, any action or inaction by any such Party, and the Parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement, omission, action or inaction; provided, however, that the liability of any Holder under this Section 5.1(e) shall be limited to the amount of net proceeds received by such Holder in the offering giving rise to such liability, less any amounts paid pursuant to Section 5.1(b). The amount of such claim, loss, liability or action subject to this Section 5.1(e) shall be deemed to include any reasonable legal or other expenses incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any such claim, loss, liability or action (which shall be limited as provided in Section 5.1(c) if the Indemnifying Party has assumed the defense of any such action in accordance with the provisions thereof). Notwithstanding the foregoing in this Section 5.1(e), no Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Party who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Party of written notice of the commencement or threatened commencement of any claims for which a claim for contribution may be made against an Indemnifying Party under this Section 5.1(e) and if a notice for indemnification has not been otherwise given under this Section 5.1, such Indemnified Party shall give written notice thereof in the manner set forth hereunder for a claim for indemnification to the Indemnifying Party; provided, however, that the failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve it of any obligation to provide contribution hereunder except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party's ability to defend such action is materially prejudiced by the failure to give such timely notice. The Parties acknowledge that determining contribution pursuant to this Section 5.1(e) by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this Section 5.1(e) would not be just or equitable. For the avoidance of doubt, if indemnification is available under Section 5.1(a) or Section 5.1(b), the Indemnifying Parties shall indemnify each Indemnified Party to the fullest extent provided in Section 5.1(a) or Section 5.1(b) without regard to the relative fault of said Indemnifying Party or Indemnified Party or any other equitable consideration provided for in this Section 5.1(e).

ARTICLE VI

ARTICLE VII

ASSIGNMENT OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS

Section 7.1 Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any right, interest or obligation hereunder may be assigned by any Party without the prior written consent of the other Party and any attempt to do so will be void, except in connection with assignments and transfers of the Registrable Securities to Qualifying Transferees, but only if the Qualifying Transferee signs and delivers to the Company a written acknowledgment (in for and substance satisfactory to the Company) that is has joined with the Holder and the other Qualifying Transferees as a party to this Agreement and has assumed, severally but not jointly, the rights and obligations of the Holder hereunder with respect to the Registrable Securities transferred by the Holder. This Agreement is binding upon, inures to the benefit of and is enforceable by the Parties and their successors and permitted assigns and shall inure to the benefit of each Holder.

Section 7.2 Obligations Several and Not Joint. The obligations of the Holders hereunder shall be several (and not joint). A Holder shall not be responsible for the failure of any other Holders to perform any obligation required to be performed by it hereunder. The obligations of the Company at any time hereunder to each Holders shall be separate and independent obligations. Each Holder shall be entitled to protect and enforce its rights arising out of this Agreement as it shall see fit, and it shall not be necessary for any other Holders to consent to, or be joined as an additional party in, any proceedings for such purposes.

ARTICLE VIII

The provisions of Article I and Article VIII shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

Section 8.2 Holders. A Person is deemed to be a holder of Registrable Securities whenever such Person owns or is deemed to own of record such Registrable Securities.

Section 8.4 Applicable Law. This Agreement, and any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of, relating to or in connection with this Agreement, or for the breach or alleged breach thereof, whether in contract, in tort or otherwise, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any conflicts of laws or other principles thereof that would result in the application of the laws of another jurisdiction. For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties confirm that they are fully familiar with the provisions of Section 5-1401 of the New York General Obligations Law, and intend to bring this Agreement within the terms thereof.

Section 8.5 Arbitration

(a) Any and all disputes, controversies and claims between or among the Parties and arising under, relating to or in connection with, this Agreement, in any manner whatsoever, whether in contract, in tort, or otherwise, and including any dispute or controversy regarding the existence, validity, enforceability or breach of this Agreement, shall be settled by arbitration by a tribunal of three (3) arbitrators constituted and acting under the LCIA Rules then in force (the “Rules”), save that any provision of the Rules which imposes any restriction on the nationality of any arbitrator or is otherwise invalid, void or unenforceable under English law shall not apply, in accordance with the following terms and conditions:

(i) In the event of any conflict between the Rules and the provisions of this Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement shall prevail.

(ii) The seat of arbitration shall be London, England, unless otherwise agreed by the Parties, and the fact that hearings are held elsewhere shall not affect the seat of arbitration.

(iii) The following procedures shall govern the selection of arbitrators:

(A) Where there is only one claimant party and one respondent party, the claimant party shall appoint one arbitrator in accordance with the Rules, the respondent party shall appoint one arbitrator in accordance with the Rules within thirty (30) days after the appointment of the first arbitrator, and the two arbitrators so appointed shall appoint the third (and presiding) arbitrator in accordance with the Rules within thirty (30) days after the appointment of the second arbitrator.

(B) In the event of an inability by the two party-nominated arbitrators to agree on a third arbitrator in accordance with Section 8.5(a)(iii)(A) above appointing authority for the third arbitrator shall be the London Court of International Arbitration (the “LCIA”), acting in accordance with the Rules. The LCIA shall use its best efforts to appoint such third arbitrator within thirty (30) days of an application being made for such purpose.

(iv) The English language shall be the language for the arbitration proceeding.

(v) The arbitral tribunal shall have the power to grant any remedy or relief that it deems just and equitable and that is in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, including specific performance, and including, but not limited to, injunctive relief, whether interim or final, and any such relief and any interim, provisional or conservatory measure ordered by the arbitral tribunal may be specifically enforced by any court of competent jurisdiction. Each party to the arbitration proceeding retains the right to seek interim, provisional or conservatory measures in accordance with Section 8.5(b), and any such request shall not be deemed incompatible with the agreement to arbitrate or constitute a waiver of the right to arbitrate.

(vi) The award of the arbitral tribunal shall be final and binding on the parties to the arbitration proceeding.

(vii) The award of the arbitral tribunal may be enforced by any court of competent jurisdiction and may be executed against the Person and assets of the losing party in any competent jurisdiction. For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties acknowledge and agree that a court of any jurisdiction where the assets of a party against which enforcement is sought may be found is a court of competent jurisdiction, and the Parties irrevocably consent to the exercise of personal jurisdiction in any such court.

(b) Except for arbitration proceedings pursuant to Section 8.5(a), no action, lawsuit or other proceeding (other than proceedings for the confirmation or enforcement of an arbitration award, an action to compel arbitration or an application for interim, provisional or conservatory measures in connection with the arbitration) shall be brought by or between the Parties in connection with any matter arising out of or in connection with this Agreement. Each Party irrevocably waives any right under the Arbitration Xxx 0000 of the United Kingdom to appeal any arbitration award to, or to seek determination of any question of law arising in the course of arbitration from, the Commercial Court.

(c) Each Party irrevocably appoints Law Debenture Corporate Services Limited, located on the date hereof at Fifth Floor, 100 Wood Street, London EC2V 7EX, United Kingdom, as its true and lawful agent and attorney to accept and acknowledge service of all process against it in any action, suit or proceeding permitted by this Section 8.5, with the same effect as if such Party were a resident of England, and had been lawfully served with such process in such jurisdiction, and waives all claims of error by reason of such service; provided that the Party effecting such service shall also deliver a copy thereof on the date of such service to the other Party by facsimile in accordance with Section 8.3. Each Party will enter into such agreements with such agent as may be necessary to constitute and continue the appointment of such agent hereunder. In the event that any such agent and attorney resigns or otherwise becomes incapable of acting, the affected Party will appoint a successor agent and attorney in London, reasonably satisfactory to the other Party, with like powers. Each Party hereby irrevocably submits to (i) the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the Commercial Court in London, England in connection with any proceeding for the confirmation or enforcement of an arbitration award, and (ii) the exclusive jurisdiction of the Commercial Court in London, England in connection with any application for interim, provisional or conservatory measures in connection with an arbitration (in each case, as referred to in Section 8.5(b) above) or an action to compel arbitration (provided that each Party retains the right to file a motion to compel arbitration (or its equivalent) in a court other than the English courts in London, England in response to an action commenced or a motion or application made by another Party or its agents, Subsidiaries or Affiliates, or their respective directors, officers, employees, attorneys, accountants, financial advisors and other agents, in such other court); provided, however, that nothing in this Section 8.5(c) shall preclude, in any manner whatsoever, any Party from seeking any such measure based upon (A) any order or judgment, whether provisional or final, of any English court or (B) any order, directive, award or ruling, whether interim or final, of any arbitral tribunal in any arbitration proceeding hereunder. Each Party hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such action, suit or proceeding brought in the English courts in London, England and any claim that any such action, suit or proceeding brought in the English courts in London England has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Nothing herein shall affect the right of any Party to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable law or to commence legal proceedings or otherwise proceed against any other Party in any other jurisdiction in a manner not inconsistent with Section 8.5(b).

(d) Each Party hereby represents and acknowledges that it is acting solely in its commercial capacity in executing and delivering this Agreement and in performing its obligations hereunder, and each Party hereby irrevocably waives, with respect to all disputes, claims, controversies and all other matters of any nature whatsoever that may arise under or in connection with this Agreement and any other document or instrument contemplated hereby, all immunity it may otherwise have as a sovereign, quasi-sovereign or state-owned entity (or similar entity) from any and all proceedings (whether legal, equitable, arbitral, administrative or otherwise), attachment of assets, and enforceability of judicial or arbitration awards.

Section 8.6 No Strict Construction. The Parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the Parties, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any Party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement.

Section 8.7 No Third Party Beneficiaries. Nothing in this Agreement will be construed as giving any Person, other than the Parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns, any right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

Section 8.8 Severability. It is expressly understood and agreed that any condition or provision of this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall not affect the enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof nor shall it affect the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction.

Section 8.9 Amendment; Waiver; Requirement of Writing. This Agreement cannot be amended other than pursuant to a written agreement executed by each Party, and no performance, term or condition hereof may be waived in whole or in part except by a writing signed by the Party against whom enforcement of the waiver is sought or who is entitled to the benefit thereof. No delay or failure on the part of any Party in exercising any rights hereunder, and no partial or single exercise thereof, will constitute a waiver of such rights or of any other rights hereunder. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed or shall constitute a waiver of any other provisions, whether or not similar, nor shall any waiver constitute a continuing waiver.

Section 8.10 Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and understanding of the Parties relating to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, whether oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof.

Section 8.11 Successors and Assigns. Subject to the requirements of Article VII, this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the permitted successors and assigns of each of the Parties hereto.

Section 8.12 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

Section 8.13 Further Assurances. Each Party shall do and perform, or cause to be done and performed, all such further acts and things, and shall execute and deliver all such other agreements, certificates, instruments and documents as any other Party may reasonably request in order to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 8.14 Existing RRA. If a conflict arises between the Company’s obligations under the Existing RRA and the Company’s obligations under this Agreement, then the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to resolve such conflict so as to give effect to Weather II’s rights under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, in the event that the Company is not able to resolve such conflict, it is understood and agreed that the Company shall not be required to take any action under this Agreement that would cause it to be in breach of the Existing RRA.
