Except as set forth on Schedule 4.02, the execution, delivery and performance of this

Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements by Seller, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, do not and will not: (a) violate any provision of applicable law; or (b) contravene, conflict with, or result in a violation of any provision of Seller’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws or any resolution adopted by the Board of Directors or shareholders of Seller.

Seller understands that the Shares are “restricted securities” under applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws and that, pursuant to these laws, Seller must hold the Shares indefinitely unless they are registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission and qualified by state authorities, or an exemption from such registration and qualification requirements is available.

ARTICLE V

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF BUYER AND PARENT

Each of Buyer and Parent represents and warrants to Seller, as of the date of this Agreement and again as of the Closing, the following:

5.01 Organization and Qualification. Each of the Parent and its Subsidiaries are entities duly organized and validly existing in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction in which they are formed, and have the requisite power and authorization to own their properties and to carry on their business as now being conducted. Each of the Parent and its Subsidiaries is duly qualified as a foreign entity to do business and is in good standing (or, with respect to the State of Florida, active status) in every jurisdiction in which its ownership of property or the nature of the business conducted by it makes such qualification necessary, except to the extent that the failure to be so qualified or be in good standing would not reasonably be expected to have a Parent Material Adverse Effect. As used in this Article V, “Parent Material Adverse Effect” means any material adverse effect on the business, properties, assets, operations, results of operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Parent and its Subsidiaries, individually or taken as a whole, or on the transactions contemplated hereby or on the other Transaction Agreements or by the agreements and instruments to be entered into in connection herewith or therewith, or on the authority or ability of the Buyer and Parent to perform their respective obligations under the Transaction Agreements. Except as set forth on Schedule 5.01, the Parent has no Subsidiaries and there are no other entities in which the Parent, directly or indirectly, owns any of the capital stock or other equity or similar interests.

5.02 Authorization; Enforcement; Validity. Buyer and Parent have the requisite corporate power and authority to enter into and perform their obligations under this Agreement, the Series C Designation Certificate and each of the Transaction Agreements and to issue the Shares in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof. The execution and delivery of the Transaction Agreements by the Buyer and Parent and the consummation by the Buyer and Parent of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including, without limitation, the issuance of the Shares and, subject to the restrictions set forth in the Series C Designation Certificate and the effectiveness of the Authorized Share Increase, the reservation for issuance and the issuance of the Parent Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Shares (the “Conversion Shares”) has been duly authorized by the Parent’s Board of Directors and no further consent or authorization is required by the Parent or Buyer, their Board of Directors or their stockholders. The Board of Directors of Parent has approved the Authorized Share Increase and has recommended approval thereof by Parent’s stockholders. This Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements to which it is a party have been duly executed and delivered by the Buyer and/or Parent, as applicable, and constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Buyer and/or Parent, as applicable, enforceable against the Buyer and/or Parent, as applicable, in

accordance with their respective terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by general principles of equity or applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation or similar laws relating to, or affecting generally, the enforcement of applicable creditors’ rights and remedies.

5.03 Issuance of Shares. Subject to the restrictions set forth in the Certificate of Designation and the effectiveness of the Authorized Share Increase, the Shares are duly authorized and, upon issuance in accordance with the terms hereof, shall be validly issued and free from all Liens, except Permitted Liens, with respect to the issue thereof and the Shares shall be fully paid and nonassessable with the holders being entitled to all rights accorded to a holder of Series C Preferred Stock. Assuming the accuracy and completeness of each of the Seller’s representations in Article IV, the offer and issuance by the Buyer and Parent of the Shares is exempt from registration under the Securities Act. Subject to the Authorized Share Increase, the Conversion Shares have been duly reserved for issuance, and upon issuance in accordance with the terms of the Series C Designation Certificate, be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free of Liens with respect to the issuance thereof with the holders being entitled to all rights accorded to a holder of Parent Common Stock.

5.04 No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Agreements to which they are a party by the Buyer and Parent and the consummation by the Buyer and Parent of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby will not (i) result in a violation of the Certificate of Incorporation of the Buyer or Parent, as amended and as in effect on the date hereof, the Buyer’s or Parent’s Bylaws, as amended and as in effect on the date hereof, any certificate of designation or other constituent documents of the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, or (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any material agreement, indenture or instrument to which the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries is a party, or (iii) result in a violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree (including federal and state securities laws and regulations and the rules and regulations of any Self-Regulatory Organization) applicable to the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries or by which any property or asset of the Parent or its Subsidiaries is bound or affected.

5.05 Consents. Other than the filing of the Series C Designation Certificate and as set forth on Schedule 5.05, the Buyer and Parent are not required to obtain any consent, authorization or order of, or make any filing or registration with, any Governmental Authority or Self-Regulatory Organization or any other Person in order to execute, deliver or perform any of their obligations under or contemplated by the Transaction Agreements to which they are a party, in each case in accordance with the terms hereof or thereof, except for the filing of a Form D after the Closing, which will be timely filed. All consents, authorizations, orders, filings and registrations which the Buyer and Parent are required to obtain pursuant to the preceding sentence have been obtained or effected on or prior to the Closing Date, except for the filing of a Form D after the Closing, which will be timely filed. The Parent and its Subsidiaries are unaware of any facts or circumstances that might prevent the Buyer or Parent from obtaining or effecting any of the registration, application or filings pursuant to the preceding sentence. The Buyer and Parent are not in violation of the rules, regulations or requirements that permit trading of the Parent Common Stock on the OTCBB operated by FINRA that would reasonably lead to

the suspension of the trading of the Parent Common Stock on the OTCBB in the foreseeable future.

5.06 No General Solicitation; Placement Agent’s Fees. Neither the Parent nor any of its Subsidiaries or affiliates, nor any Person acting on its or their behalf, has engaged in any form of general solicitation or general advertising (within the meaning of Regulation D) in connection with the offer or sale of the Securities. The Buyer and Parent shall be responsible for the payment of any placement agent’s fees, financial advisory fees, or brokers’ commissions (other than for persons engaged by Seller or Seller’s investment advisor) relating to or arising out of the transactions contemplated hereby.

Except as set forth in Schedule 5.06, neither the Parent nor any of its Subsidiaries has engaged any placement agent or other agent in connection with the sale of the Securities.

5.07 No Integrated Offering. None of the Parent or any of its affiliates or Subsidiaries, or any Person acting on their behalf has, directly or indirectly, made any offers or sales of any security or solicited any offers to buy any security, under circumstances that would require registration of any of the Securities under the Securities Act, whether through integration with prior offerings or otherwise, or cause this offering of the Securities to require approval of stockholders of the Buyer or Parent for purposes of the Securities Act or any applicable stockholder approval provisions, including, without limitation, under the rules, regulations or requirements that permit trading of the Parent Common Stock on the OTCBB that would reasonably lead to the suspension of the trading of the Parent Common Stock on the OTCBB. None of the Parent or its affiliates or Subsidiaries or any Person acting on its or their behalf will take any action or steps referred to in the preceding sentence that would require registration of any of the Securities under the Securities Act or cause the offering of the Securities to be integrated with other offerings for purposes of any such applicable stockholder approval provisions.

5.08 SEC Documents; Financial Statements. Except as set forth in Schedule 5.08, during the two (2) years prior to the date hereof, Parent has timely (including within any additional time periods provided by Rule 12b-25 under the Exchange Act) filed all SEC Documents. Parent has delivered to Seller or its representatives true, correct and complete copies of the SEC Documents not available on the EDGAR system. Except as set forth in Schedule 5.08 or as corrected by subsequent amendments thereto, as of their respective filing dates, the SEC Documents complied in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder applicable to the SEC Documents. As of their respective filing dates, none of the SEC Documents contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. All material contracts to which the Parent or any subsidiary is a party or to which the property or assets of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries are subject are included as part of or specifically identified in the SEC Documents to the extent required. Except as set forth in Schedule 5.08, as of their respective filing dates, the financial statements of Parent included in the SEC Documents complied as to form in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and the published rules and regulations of the SEC with

respect thereto. Such financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied, during the periods involved (except (i) as may be otherwise indicated in such financial statements or the notes thereto, or (ii) in the case of unaudited interim statements, to the extent they may exclude footnotes or may be condensed or summary statements) and fairly present in all material respects the financial position of Parent and its Subsidiaries as of the dates thereof and the results of its operations and cash flows for the periods then ended (subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to normal year-end audit adjustments).

5.09 Absence of Certain Changes. Except as set forth in the SEC Documents, since December 31, 2008, there has been no material adverse change and no material adverse development in the business, properties, operations, condition (financial or otherwise), results of operations or prospects of the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries.

5.10 No Undisclosed Events, Liabilities, Developments or Circumstances. No event, liability, development or circumstance has occurred or exists with respect to the Parent or its Subsidiaries or their respective business, properties, prospects, operations or financial condition, that would be required to be disclosed by the Buyer or Parent under applicable securities laws on a registration statement on Form S-1 filed with the SEC relating to an issuance and sale by the Buyer or Parent of its shares of Parent Common Stock and which has not been publicly disclosed or disclosed to Seller.

5.11 Conduct of Business; Regulatory Permits. Neither the Parent nor any of its Subsidiaries is in violation of any term of or in default under any certificate of designation of any outstanding series of preferred stock of the Buyer or Parent, their respective certificates of incorporation, bylaws or equivalent documents.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Parent is not in violation of any of the rules, regulations or requirements that permit trading of the Parent Common Stock on the OTCBB that would reasonably lead to the suspension of the trading of the Parent Common Stock on the OTCBB in the foreseeable future. The Parent and its Subsidiaries possess all certificates, approvals, authorizations and permits required by the appropriate Governmental Authorities or Self-Regulatory Organizations necessary to conduct their respective businesses, except where the failure to possess such certificates, authorizations or permits would not have, individually or in the aggregate, a Parent Material Adverse Effect, and neither the Parent nor its Subsidiaries have

received any notice of proceedings relating to the revocation or modification of any such certificate, approval, authorization or permit.

5.12 Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Except as set forth on Schedule 5.12 or in the SEC Documents, Parent is in compliance with any and all applicable requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 that are effective as of the date hereof, and any and all applicable rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC thereunder that are effective as of the date hereof.

ARTICLE VI

(b) For purposes of this Agreement, “Confidential Information” means any and all technical, business and other information of or relating to the Business or the Business Assets that derives value, actual, potential, economic or otherwise, from not being generally known to other Persons, including technical or non-technical data, compositions, devices, methods, techniques, drawings, inventions, processes, financial data, financial plans, product plans, lists of, or information relating to, actual or potential customers or suppliers, acquisition and investment plans and strategies, business plans or operations of the Business.

(c) The obligations set forth in Section 6.01(a) shall not apply to any information that Seller can conclusively demonstrate: (i) has become generally available to the public through no act or omission of Seller and without violation of this Agreement, or any other confidentiality obligation of Seller; or (ii) is required to be disclosed by subpoena or other mandatory legal process or in connection with any legal proceeding, provided that Seller promptly gives Buyer notice of any request or demand for disclosure of such Confidential Information upon receipt of such request or demand along with a copy of any written correspondence, pleading or other communications concerning the request or demand, and Seller

shall use reasonable efforts to obtain (at Buyer’s cost), and upon request, provide reasonable cooperation should Buyer seek to obtain, an appropriate protective order.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall limit in any way Seller’s ability to (i) consult any advisor regarding any legal, tax or accounting issues arising out of or related to the transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) to prosecute or defend any claim involving Seller or Buyer or any of their respective Affiliates or (iii) to disclose any Confidential Information to its officers, directors and/or representatives who need to have such information to consummate the transactions contemplated herein or in any other Transaction Agreement or to handle the dissolution, liquidation and wind-up of Seller and BCM in accordance with applicable laws.

6.02 Covenant Not to Compete.

(a) Seller hereby agrees that it will not (nor will it permit BCM) during the period beginning on the date hereof and ending on the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Closing Date, directly or indirectly, for any reason, for its own account, or on behalf of, or together with or through, any other Person or entity, whether as principal, agent, shareholder, participant, partner, promoter, director, officer, manager, member, equity owner, employee, consultant, sales representative or otherwise:

(i) own, manage, control, participate in, consult with, render services for, or in any other manner engage in any business with any Person (including, without limitation, any division, group or franchise of a larger organization) that engages in the electronic trading of fixed income securities or otherwise competes with any business activities of Buyer or its Affiliates;

(ii) solicit, or assist in the solicitation of, any Person to whom Seller either sold, provided or solicited to sell or provide any service or product, in each case, for the purpose of selling, providing or soliciting to sell or provide any service or product the same as that sold or provided by the Business;

(iv) solicit, or assist in the solicitation of, any Hired Employee or other Person employed or engaged by Buyer as of the Closing Date in any capacity (as an employee, independent contractor or otherwise) to terminate such employment or other engagement, whether or not such employment or engagement is pursuant to a contract and whether or not such employment or engagement is at will; or

(v) knowingly or intentionally damage or destroy the goodwill and esteem of Buyer or the Business with its vendors, suppliers, employees, patrons, customers, prospective customers and any others who may at any time have or have had business relations with Buyer or the Business.

(c) Although the parties have, in good faith, used their best efforts to make the provisions of Sections 6.01(a) and 6.02(a) reasonable in terms of geographic area, duration and scope of restricted activities in light of Seller’s business activities and the consideration to be received by Seller hereunder, and it is not anticipated, nor is it intended, by any party hereto that an arbitral panel or court of competent jurisdiction would find it necessary to reform the provisions hereof to make them reasonable in terms of geographic area, duration or otherwise, the parties understand and agree that if an arbitral panel or court of competent jurisdiction determines it necessary to reform the scope of Sections 6.01(a) or 6.02(a) or any part thereof in order to make it binding and enforceable, such provision shall be considered divisible in all respects and such lesser scope as any such court shall determine to be reasonable shall be effective, binding and enforceable.

(d) The parties recognize and agree that in the event of a breach or threatened breach by Seller of Section 6.01(a) or 6.02(a), money damages would not be an adequate remedy to Buyer for such breach and, even if money damages were adequate, it would be difficult to ascertain or measure with any degree of accuracy the damages sustained by Buyer therefrom. Accordingly, if there should be a breach or threatened breach by Seller of the provisions of Section 6.01(a) or 6.02(a), Buyer shall be entitled to an injunction restraining such party from any such breach. Nothing in the preceding sentence shall limit or otherwise affect any remedies that Buyer or its Affiliates may otherwise have under applicable law.

(e) All of the covenants in Sections 6.01(a) and 6.02(a) are intended by each party hereto to be, and shall be construed as, agreements independent of any other provision in this Agreement, and the existence of any claim or cause of action of Seller against Buyer, whether predicated on this Agreement or otherwise, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement by Buyer of any covenant in Section 6.01(a) or 6.02(a). The parties hereby agree that Section 6.01 and this Section 6.02 are a material and substantial part of the transactions contemplated hereby.

6.03 Employees of the Business. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, Buyer may in its sole discretion, but is not obligated to, make offers of employment to any one or more of the employees of Seller (such employees who accept the terms and conditions of such offer and who are employed by Buyer are hereinafter referred to as “Hired Employees”). Buyer acknowledges and agrees that the Hired Employees will be involved in and have responsibilities with respect to the dissolution, liquidation and winding-up of Seller and BCM after Closing and agrees that the Hired Employees may devote business hours sufficient to accomplish such responsibilities so long as the devotion of time does not materially impact their ability to provide services to Buyer. Buyer shall, in its discretion, establish the initial terms and conditions of employment for all Hired Employees. Seller shall remain solely responsible for all employees that are not Hired Employees and all claims related thereto and for all compensation and benefits of any Hired Employee for services through their termination by Seller. Buyer will not assume or continue,

and will have no responsibility or Liability to the Hired Employees or any other Person under or with respect to, any of the Employee Benefit Plans of Seller. The provisions of this Agreement are for the benefit of Buyer and Seller only, and no employee of Seller or any other Person shall have any rights hereunder.

6.04 Consents; Failure to Obtain Consents. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, at Buyer’s sole option, this Agreement shall not constitute an assignment or attempt to assign or transfer any interest in any Contract otherwise included in the Business Assets, or any claim, right or benefit arising thereunder or resulting therefrom, if such assignment or transfer is without the consent of a third party and would constitute a breach or violation thereof or adversely affect the rights of Buyer, the Business Assets or the Business. Until all such consents are obtained, Seller shall cooperate (at Buyer’s expense) in any arrangement reasonably satisfactory to Buyer designed to fulfill the Seller’s obligations thereunder and to afford Buyer the continued full benefits thereof (including, without limitation, the receipt and recognition by Buyer of all revenue thereunder).

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary above, the survival period for any claim for indemnity as a result of a breach of a representation or warranty otherwise limited by this Section 9.01 shall be extended automatically to include any time period necessary to resolve such claim for indemnity if such claim for indemnity was made before the expiration of the survival period but not resolved prior to its expiration, and any such extension shall apply as to the claim for indemnity asserted and not so resolved within such survival period. Liability for such item shall continue until such claim for indemnity shall have been finally settled, decided or adjudicated. All covenants to be performed after the Closing Date shall continue indefinitely.

9.02 Agreement to Indemnify.

(a) Seller (the “Seller Indemnitor”) shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Buyer and its affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, employees, representatives and agents (collectively, the “Buyer Indemnitees”) from, against and in respect of any and all Damages incurred by any Buyer Indemnitee arising out of or as a result of: (i) any inaccuracy or misrepresentation in or breach of any representation or warranty made by Seller in any Transaction Agreement or any Exhibit or Schedule thereto; (ii) any breach of any covenant or agreement made by Seller in any Transaction Agreement; (iii) any Excluded Liability; and (iv) all fees and expenses incident to any of the foregoing or incurred in investigating or attempting to avoid the same or to oppose the imposition thereof, or in enforcing this indemnification.

(b) Buyer (the “Buyer Indemnitor”) shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Seller and its affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, employees, representatives and agents (collectively, the “Seller Indemnitees”) from, against and in respect of any and all Damages incurred by any Seller Indemnitee arising out of or as a result of (i) any

inaccuracy or misrepresentation in or breach of any representation or warranty made by Buyer in any Transaction Agreement or any Exhibit or Schedule thereto; (ii) any breach of any covenant or agreement made by either Buyer in any Transaction Agreement; and (iii) all fees and expenses incident to any of the foregoing or incurred in investigating or attempting to avoid the same or to oppose the imposition thereof, or in enforcing this indemnification.

(c) In the event that a Buyer Indemnitee or Seller Indemnitee (each an “Indemnitee”) notifies the Seller Indemnitors or Buyer Indemnitor (each an “Indemnitor”) of any claim for which indemnification is available pursuant to Section 9.02(a) or Section 9.02(b), as the case may be, the Indemnitor shall, within thirty (30) days after the date of such notice, pay to the Indemnitee the amount of Damages payable pursuant to Section 9.02(a) or Section 9.02(b), as applicable, and shall thereafter pay any other damages payable pursuant to Section 9.02(a) or Section 9.02(b), as applicable, and arising out of the same matter on demand unless the Indemnitor disputes in writing its liability for, or the amount of, any such Damages within such 30-day period, in which case such payment shall be made as provided above in respect of any matters or amounts not so disputed and any Damages in respect of the matters so disputed shall be paid within five (5) Business Days after any determination (by agreement of Buyer and the Seller or by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable decision) that the Indemnitor is liable therefor pursuant to Section 9.02(a) or Section 9.02(b), as applicable. For avoidance of doubt, an Indemnitor’s dispute of liability shall not relieve it of any obligation that arises hereunder.

(d) Notwithstanding Section 9.02(c), if a Buyer Indemnitee has a claim for which indemnification is available pursuant to Section 9.02(a), unless Seller, in its sole discretion, chooses to satisfy such claim in cash pursuant to Section 9.02(c), such indemnification claim may only be satisfied by the delivery of the Claim Shares from the Escrow Stock and, if such claim is a Special Claim, the Supplemental Escrow Stock (if necessary to satisfy such claim in full), and claims so satisfied shall be administered in accordance with the procedures set forth in Sections 4 and 5 of the Escrow Agreement.

(e) Promptly after receipt by an Indemnitee of notice of the assertion of a third-party claim against it, such Indemnitee shall give notice to the Indemnitor of the assertion of such third-party claim, provided that the failure to notify the Indemnitor will not relieve the Indemnitor of any liability that it may have to any Indemnitee, except for fees and costs incurred before notification and to the extent thereafter that the Indemnitor is materially prejudiced by the Indemnitee failure to give such notice.

9.03 Limitations on Indemnification Obligations. Seller’s (and Seller Indemnitor’s) aggregate liability in respect of indemnification pursuant to Article IX will not exceed, and any Buyer Indemnitee’s sole remedy shall be, the Escrow Stock; provided, however, that Seller’s (and Seller Indemnitor’s) aggregate liability in respect of indemnification pursuant to Article IX for Special Claims will not exceed the Escrow Stock and the Supplemental Escrow Stock. Buyer (and Buyer Indemnitor) will have no liability to any Seller Indemnitee under this Agreement for a breach of Section 3.1 of the Conversion Agreement.

9.04 Exclusive Remedy. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the sole and exclusive remedy of any Indemnitee for Damages with respect to this Agreement

and the transactions contemplated hereby which are the subject of indemnification provisions in this Article IX shall be to make claims for indemnification hereunder, and if such Indemnitee is a Buyer Indemnitee such claim shall solely be made against the Escrow Stock (and the Supplemental Escrow Stock, if applicable) under this Article IX; provided, however, that this Section 9.04 shall not limit a party’s right to specific performance or injunctive or other equitable relief or a party’s remedies with respect to a breach of a covenant set forth in this Agreement or any other Transaction Agreement to be performed after the Closing; provided, further, that this Section 9.04 shall not limit a Buyer Indemnitee’s right to remedies with respect to claims based upon fraud or intentional acts or omissions.

10.02 Amendments; No Waivers. Any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived if, and only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and signed, in the case of an amendment, by Buyer and Seller, or in the case of a waiver, by the party against whom the waiver is to be effective. No waiver by a party of any default, misrepresentation or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder, whether intentional or not, shall be deemed to extend to any prior or subsequent default, misrepresentation or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder or affect in any way any rights arising by virtue of any prior or subsequent occurrence. No failure or delay by a party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.

10.03 Expenses. Subject to Article IX and Sections 7.04 and 10.11 below, all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the negotiation and execution of this Agreement and in closing and carrying out the transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by the party incurring such cost or expense.

Buyer may assign or delegate its rights under this Agreement (including the right to acquire all or any portion of the Business Assets or the obligation to assume all or any portion of the Assumed Obligations) to one or more affiliates of Buyer or to any purchaser of all or substantially all or any substantial part of Buyer’s business (by merger, sale or assets or otherwise), provided, however, Buyer shall remain liable to Seller for the performance of its obligations under this Agreement. Any assignment or delegation in breach of this Section 10.04 shall be null and void.

10.05 Counterparts; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto

10.06 Entire Agreement.

10.07 Severability; Third Party Beneficiaries. If any provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof to any Person, place or circumstance, shall be held by an arbitral tribunal or court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, unenforceable or void, the remainder of this Agreement and such provisions as applied to other Persons, places and circumstances shall remain in full force and effect if, but only if, after excluding the portion deemed to be unenforceable, the remaining terms shall provide for the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby in substantially the same manner as originally set forth at the later of the date this Agreement was executed or last amended. Except with respect to indemnification of the Indemnitees, no provision of this Agreement shall be deemed to create any third party beneficiary rights in any Person, including any employee or former employee of Seller or any beneficiary or dependent thereof.

10.08 Further Assurances. From time to time (including after the Closing), the parties will execute and deliver such other documents, certificates, agreements and other writings and take such other actions as may reasonably be necessary or requested by another party in order to consummate, evidence or implement expeditiously the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

10.09 Public Announcements. Before and after the Closing, the parties agree to consult with each other before issuing any press release or making any public statement with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and, except as may be required by applicable law, will not issue any such public statement without the prior written consent of Buyer.

10.10 Governing Law.

(a) This Agreement and all acts and transactions pursuant hereto and the rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall be governed, construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law.

THE PARTIES AGREE THAT ANY OF THEM MAY FILE A COPY OF THIS PARAGRAPH WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE KNOWING, VOLUNTARY AND BARGAINED-FOR AGREEMENT AMONG THE PARTIES IRREVOCABLY TO WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY AND THAT ANY PROCEEDING WHATSOEVER BETWEEN THEM RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER AGREEMENT OR DOCUMENT RELATING TO THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY SHALL INSTEAD BE TRIED IN A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION BY A JUDGE SITTING WITHOUT A JURY.

10.11 Prevailing Party. In the event a party commences an action to enforce its rights pursuant to this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to receive its attorneys’ fees and costs from the non-prevailing party.
