SECTION 1.04. Assignment and Assumption of Certain Contracts. (a) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement (including Sections 1.02 and 1.03) or the Ancillary Documents to the contrary, and for no further consideration, from time to time after the Closing, Buyer shall have the right, at its option, to require Seller or a NonSeller Subsidiary, promptly after the receipt of notice from Buyer, to assign, transfer, convey and deliver to Buyer all the right, title and interest of Seller (including the NonSeller Subsidiaries) in, to and under any Excluded Contracts specified in such notice (each such Contract, a “Post-Closing Contract”). Concurrently with any such assignment, Buyer shall assume, and agree to pay, perform and discharge when due, all the liabilities, obligations and commitments of Seller (including the NonSeller Subsidiaries) under any such Post-Closing Contract; provided, however, that Buyer shall not assume, pay, perform or discharge when due, any liability, obligation or commitment of Seller (including the NonSeller Subsidiaries) under any such Post-Closing Contract to the extent such liabilities, obligations or commitments arose or existed prior to the assignment and assumption of such Post-Closing Contract. For purposes of this Agreement (including Article VII), (a) the agreements, documents and instruments delivered in connection with any such assignment and assumption (other than the relevant Post-Closing Contract) shall also be deemed to be Ancillary Documents and (b) upon the assignment and assumption of any Post-Closing Contract, (i) the right, title and interest in, to and under such Post-Closing Contract will be deemed to be an Acquired Asset and (ii) subject to the provisions of this Section 1.04 and the other terms of this Agreement, the written obligations and written commitments under such Post-Closing Contract will be deemed to be Assumed Liabilities; provided that any references herein to the “Closing” or the “Closing Date” in connection with the Ancillary Documents, the Acquired Assets or the Assumed Liabilities arising in connection with an assignment and assumption of a Post-Closing Contract will be deemed to be references to the time or date such assignment and assumption became effective.

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, this Agreement does not effect an assignment of any Assigned/Assumed Contract or any other agreement otherwise included in the Acquired Assets that prohibits any assignment otherwise contemplated

by this Agreement, and for which the Seller has not obtained a required consent to assignment or given a required notice as of the Closing.

Seller and the Seller Subsidiaries and each Benefit Plan and Benefit Agreement are in compliance in all material respects with all applicable provisions of ERISA, the Code and all other applicable Laws, whether federal, state or local, domestic or foreign, and the terms of all collective bargaining agreements. All Pension Plans intended to be tax-qualified under the Code are so qualified and have been the subject of determination letters or opinion letters from the IRS with respect to all tax Law changes with respect to which the IRS is currently willing to provide a determination letter or opinion letter, to the effect that such Pension Plans are qualified and exempt from U.S. Federal income taxes under Sections 401(a) and 501(a), respectively, of the Code; no such determination letter or opinion letter has been revoked (nor, to the Knowledge of Seller, has revocation been threatened) nor has any event occurred since the date of the most recent determination letter or opinion letter or application therefor relating to any such Pension Plan that could reasonably be expected to adversely affect the qualification of such Pension Plan or materially increase the costs relating thereto or require

No Welfare Plan is unfunded, self-insured or funded through a “welfare benefits fund” (as defined in Section 419(e) of the Code). No Welfare Plan provides benefits after termination of employment except where the cost thereof is borne entirely by the former employee (or his or her eligible dependents or beneficiaries) or as required by Section 4980B(f) of the Code or any similar state statute. Seller has complied in all material respects with the applicable requirements of Section 4980B(f) of the Code, Sections 601-609 of ERISA and any similar state statute with respect to each Benefit Plan that is a group health plan (as defined in Section 5000(b)(1) of the Code or any similar state statute).

The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Ancillary Documents and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (alone or in combination with any other event) and compliance by Seller and the Seller Subsidiaries with the provisions hereof and thereof do not and will not require the funding of, or increase the cost of, or give rise to any other obligation under, any Benefit Plan, Benefit Agreement or any other employment arrangement and will not result in any breach or violation in any material respect of, or default under, or limit Seller’s ability to amend, modify or terminate any Benefit Plan or Benefit Agreement.

(e) All reports, returns and similar documents with respect to all Benefit Plans required to be filed with any Governmental Entity or distributed to any Benefit Plan participant have been duly and timely filed or distributed. Seller or any Seller Subsidiary has received no notice of and, to the Knowledge of Seller, there are no pending investigations by any Governmental Entity with respect to, or pending termination proceedings or other claims (except claims for benefits payable in the normal operation of the Benefit Plans or Benefit Agreements) or Litigation against, or involving or asserting any rights or claims to benefits under, any Benefit Plan or Benefit Agreement.

(f) All contributions, premiums and benefit payments under or in connection with each Benefit Plan that are required to have been made by Seller or any Seller Subsidiary in accordance with the terms of the Benefit Plan and applicable Laws have been timely made.

(h) Neither Seller nor any Seller Subsidiary has any liability or obligations, including under or on account of a Benefit Plan or Benefit Agreement, arising out of the hiring of persons to provide services to Seller or any Seller Subsidiary and treating such persons as consultants or independent contractors and not as employees of Seller or any Seller Subsidiary.

(i) any inaccuracy in, or any breach of, any representation or warranty of Buyer contained herein or in the Ancillary Documents or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (it being agreed that for purposes of determining the existence of any such inaccuracy or breach or the amount of any Loss with respect thereto, all such representations and warranties of Buyer that are qualified as to materiality or by reference to a Material Adverse Effect of Buyer, shall be deemed to be not so qualified);

(ii) the failure by Buyer to perform any covenant, agreement, obligation or undertaking in this Agreement or in the Ancillary Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby; and

(iii) any of the Assumed Liabilities, including the failure of the Buyer to retire, discharge or satisfy the Assumed Liabilities and the operation by Buyer of the Acquired Assets after the Closing Date, subject, however, to the terms of this Agreement.

SECTION 7.02. Determination of Losses. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the rights of any indemnified party to indemnification pursuant to Section 7.01 with respect to a representation or warranty or covenant, agreement, obligation or undertaking of a party are an essential part of the economic terms of the Acquisition, and any indemnified party’s rights to indemnification therefor shall in no way be limited or eliminated or otherwise affected by the fact that such party, or any of its affiliates, was at any time prior to the Closing aware (or should have become aware) that any such representation or warranty was untrue or incorrect or that any such covenant or agreement had been breached.

SECTION 7.03. Procedures. (a) Procedures for Third Party Claims. (i) If a claim by a third party is made against an indemnified party arising out of a matter for which such indemnified party is entitled to be indemnified pursuant to Section 7.01 (a “Third Party Claim”), the indemnified party shall promptly notify the indemnifying party or the Representative (in the case of a claim pursuant to Section 7.01(b)) in writing of such claim. The failure so to notify promptly the indemnifying party or the Representative (in the case of a claim pursuant to Section 7.01(b)) hereunder shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations hereunder. The indemnifying party shall be responsible for the fees and expenses of counsel employed by the applicable indemnified party; provided that in no event shall the indemnifying party be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one counsel (in addition to any local counsel) for all indemnified parties in connection with any one action or separate but similar or related actions arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances.

(ii) The indemnifying party or the Representative (in the case of a claim pursuant to Section 7.01(b)) shall be entitled to participate in the defense of a Third Party Claim, individually or jointly, through counsel, at their own expense; provided that with respect to any Third Party Claim, the indemnified party shall control all proceedings taken in connection with such Third Party Claim and, without limiting the foregoing, the indemnified party or the Representative (in the case of a claim under Section 7.01(c)) may in its sole discretion, subject to Section 7.03(a)(iii), pursue or forego any and all administrative appeals, proceedings, hearings and conferences with any Governmental Entity with respect thereto, and, subject to Section 7.03(a)(iii), may in its sole discretion, either pay the amount claimed and sue for a refund where applicable Law permits such refund suits, settle or contest the Third Party Claim in any permissible manner.

(iii) So long as the indemnifying party or the Representative (in the case of a claim pursuant to Section 7.01(b)) is participating in the defense of a Third Party Claim in good faith, the indemnified party shall reasonably cooperate with the indemnifying party and the Representative (in the case of a claim pursuant to Section 7.01(b)) by providing records and information that are reasonably relevant to such Third Party Claim. The indemnified

party shall not settle or compromise any Third Party Claim without the written consent of the indemnifying party or the Representative (in the case of a claim pursuant to Section 7.01(b)), which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. No such consent will be required if the indemnified party agrees in writing to forego all claims for indemnification from the indemnifying party with respect to such Third Party Claim, or the indemnified party reasonably believes itself to be potentially or actually exposed to (A) Losses in excess of amounts reasonably expected to be received from the indemnifying party or (B) non-monetary remedies; provided, however, that the indemnified party uses reasonable efforts to obtain in such settlement a release of the indemnifying party with respect to all such Third Party Claims.

(b) Procedures for Direct Claims. In the event any indemnified party should have a claim against any indemnifying party under this Agreement that does not involve a Third Party Claim being asserted against or sought to be collected from such indemnified party (a “Direct Claim”), the indemnified party shall deliver notice of such Direct Claim with reasonable promptness to the indemnifying party or the Representative (in the case of a claim pursuant to Section 7.01(b)). The failure by any indemnified party so to notify the indemnifying party or the Representative (in the case of a claim pursuant to Section 7.01(b)) hereunder shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations hereunder. If the indemnifying party or the Representative (in the case of a claim pursuant to Section 7.01(b)) does not notify or does not respond for any reason in writing to the indemnified party within 30 calendar days that it disputes the indemnifying party’s liability to the indemnified party, such Direct Claim specified by the indemnified party in such notice shall be conclusively deemed a liability of the indemnifying party and the indemnifying party shall pay the amount of such liability to the indemnified party on demand (or the indemnified party (in the case of a claim pursuant to Section 7.01(b)) can and shall be entitled to deduct promptly the Losses from the Aggregate Deferred Payment Amount).

(c) The procedures for tendering claims pursuant to this Section 7.03 shall not apply to the indemnification Claims for the Special Liabilities set forth in Section 7.01(b)(iv).

SECTION 7.04. Limitations of Indemnification. From and after the Closing Date: (a) the indemnifying parties shall not be liable for any Losses under Section 7.01(b)(i) or 7.01(c)(i) unless the aggregate amount of all Losses for which any such indemnifying party would be liable (but for this subparagraph) under the relevant Section exceeds, on a cumulative basis, US$10,000 (the “Indemnity Basket”); provided that, if the aggregate amount of all Losses exceeds such amount, the indemnified party shall be entitled to indemnification for all such Losses, including the Indemnity Basket.

(b) The total dollar amount in respect of which Seller shall be liable under Section 7.01(b)(i) of this Agreement to indemnify any Buyer indemnified party shall not exceed US$750,000; provided, however, that the limitations set forth above in this paragraph shall not be applicable to any Losses incurred (i) due to fraud, willful misrepresentation, willful breach, willful misconduct or willful concealment by or on behalf of the Seller and (ii) as a result of or arising under a breach of any of the representations and warranties of Seller set forth in Sections 3.03, 3.04, 3.11, 3.12(d), and 3.23 (Section 7.04(b)(ii) shall be referred to as the “Representations Exceptions”).

(c) The total dollar amount in respect of which Seller shall be liable under the Representations Exceptions and this Agreement to indemnify any Buyer indemnified party shall not exceed the Purchase Price; provided, however, that the limitations set forth above in this paragraph shall not be applicable to any Losses incurred (i) due to fraud, willful misrepresentation, willful breach, willful misconduct or willful concealment by or on behalf of the Seller and (ii) as a result of or arising under a failure of Seller to comply with or a Seller default under Section 7.01(b)(iii) or Section 6.02 (Section 7.04(c)(ii) shall be referred to as the “Covenant Exceptions”).

(d) There shall be no limitation on Losses for (i) fraud, willful misrepresentation, willful breach, willful misconduct or willful concealment by or on behalf of the Seller and (ii) the Covenant Exceptions.

(e) The total dollar amount in respect of which Buyer shall be liable under this Agreement or any of the Ancillary Documents to indemnify Seller shall not exceed US $750,000.

SECTION 7.05. Termination of Indemnification Obligations. (a) Except with respect to fraud, willful misrepresentation, willful breach, willful misconduct or willful concealment by or on behalf of the Seller, the obligations of Seller to indemnify any Buyer indemnified party pursuant to Section 7.01(b)(i) shall terminate at the close of business on the third-year anniversary of the Closing Date, except that such obligations shall not terminate with respect to any items as to which any Buyer indemnified party has, before the expiration of such period, taking into account any extensions thereof, previously made a Claim against Seller by delivering a notice to Seller or the Representative in accordance with this Agreement, which shall survive until all such Claims are finally resolved. Except with respect to fraud, willful misrepresentation, willful breach, willful misconduct or willful concealment by or on behalf of the Seller, the obligations of Seller to indemnify any Buyer indemnified party pursuant to any other provision of this Agreement, including Sections 7.01(b)(ii) through (v), or any Ancillary Document shall terminate upon the later of ten years from the Closing or the expiration of the relevant statute of limitations, taking into account extensions thereof, except that such obligations shall not terminate with respect to any item as to which any Buyer indemnified party has, before the expiration of the relevant period, taking into account any extensions thereof, previously made a Claim against Seller by delivering a notice to Seller or the Representative in accordance with this Agreement, which shall survive until all such Claims are finally resolved.

(b) The obligation of Buyer to indemnify Seller pursuant to the Agreement (and the survivability of each of Buyer’s representations, warranties, covenants and agreements) shall terminate at the close of business upon the earliest to occur of (a) the date this is the two-year anniversary of the Closing Date, (b) the date immediately prior to the consummation of a Liquidation Event of Buyer (as defined in Buyer’s Certificate of Incorporation), (c) the effective date of the initial public offering of Buyer’s securities, and (d) the date of any voluntary or involuntary dissolution, winding down, assignment for the benefit of creditors, bankruptcy or liquidation of or involving Seller, except that such obligations shall not terminate with respect to any items as to which Seller has, before the expiration of such period, previously made a Claim against Buyer by delivering a notice to Buyer in accordance with this Agreement, which shall survive until all such Claims are finally resolved.

SECTION 7.06. Reduction of Aggregate Deferred Payment Amount. (a) In the event that Buyer determines from time to time that Buyer or any of its affiliates is entitled to payment under the indemnities set forth in this Agreement, Buyer shall deliver a notice to such effect (a “Claim”) to an indemnifying party or the Representative, except for a Direct Claim, in which case Buyer shall comply with the procedures specified in Section 7.03(b). The failure by Buyer so to notify Seller or the Representative hereunder shall not relieve Seller of its obligations hereunder. The notice of a Claim shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for the Claim. Buyer is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to apply all or any portion of the Aggregate Deferred Payment Amount at any time held against any indemnification obligation set forth in any Claim delivered pursuant to the preceding sentence, subject to the other provisions of this Agreement. If the Seller or the Representative does not respond to the Claim for any reason, Buyer shall deduct its Losses from the Aggregate Deferred Payment Amount within thirty calendar days from the date that the Buyer sends a notice of a Claim to the Seller or the Representative.

(b) The Aggregate Deferred Payment Amount shall also be reduced from time to time by any amount (i) that has been determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be owing by the indemnifying party to an indemnified party, (ii) that indemnifying party or the Representative has agreed in writing shall be applied against the Aggregate Deferred Payment Amount and permanently retained by Buyer, (iii) pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or (iv) that is distributed to Seller pursuant hereto.

(c) Distributions to Seller. Promptly after the date that is twelve (12) months after the Closing Date (a “First Distribution Date”), Buyer will notify Seller or the Representative in writing of the Projected Indemnity Amount as of such date. As promptly as practicable following delivery of such notice, an amount (a “First Distribution Amount”) equal to (i) US Five Hundred Thousand Dollars (US$500,000) (such dollar amount to be reduced from time to time during the twelve months after the Closing Date from Claims and payments and distributions made during such period) minus (ii) an amount, if any, equal to such Projected Indemnity Amount shall be transferred and delivered to Seller or as otherwise instructed by the Representative, provided Seller or the Representative has provided an address for delivery of funds in connection with the First Distribution Amount. In addition, promptly after the date that is twenty-four (24) months after the Closing Date (a “Second Distribution Date”), Buyer will notify Seller or the Representative in writing of the Projected Indemnity Amount as of such date. As promptly as practicable following delivery of such notice, an amount (a “Second Distribution Amount”) equal to (i) the Aggregate Deferred Payment Amount (as the same may be reduced from time to time from Claims and payments and distributions) minus (ii) an amount, if any, equal to such Projected Indemnity Amount, shall be transferred and delivered to Seller or as otherwise instructed by the Representative, provided Seller or the Representative has provided an address for delivery of funds in connection with the Second Distribution Amount.

“Projected Indemnity Amount” shall mean, as of pending any date, the maximum aggregate amount that is determined by Buyer in good faith to be necessary to satisfy all pending Claims for indemnification by Seller pursuant to Article VII of this Agreement that have been timely asserted but not finally resolved by that date, including an amount with respect to fees and expenses projected by Buyer in good faith to be the maximum aggregate amount necessary to cover costs and expenses related to the enforcement of such Claims.

SECTION 7.07. Dispute Resolution. In the event that (a) Seller or the Representative disputes in writing any decision by Buyer to pay to Buyer or any of Buyer’s affiliates any portion of the Aggregate Deferred Payment Amount or (b) Seller or the Representative disputes Buyer’s determination of the Projected Indemnity Amount pursuant to Section 7.06, Seller or the Representative shall notify Buyer within 30 days after receipt of notice of a Claim or the determination of such Projected Indemnity Amount of such dispute and Seller or Representative and Buyer shall attempt in good faith to resolve such dispute within sixty (60) days of such notification by Seller or the Representative to Buyer. If such dispute is not so resolved within such sixty (60)-day period, then Seller may initiate a lawsuit with respect to the subject matter of such dispute in accordance with, and subject to the limitations of, this Agreement; provided, however, that no such lawsuit may be brought more than six months after the receipt by Seller or the Representative of the applicable notice of Claim referred to in Section 7.06 or the calculation of the Projected Indemnity Amount referred to in Section 7.06, as applicable. If all or any part of such timely disputed amount is determined in any settlement or final resolution by lawsuit to be owing to Seller, Buyer shall promptly, upon such settlement or resolution, pay such amount. This Section 7.07 shall not apply to the indemnification Claims for the payment of the Special Liabilities set forth in Section 7.01(b)(iv).

SECTION 7.08. Procedures for Special Liabilities. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement, the Buyer shall have the unilateral right to pay for and retire, without objection or approval from the Seller or the Representative, all of the Special Liabilities through a deduction or offset to the Aggregate Deferred Payment Amount. Such deduction shall be final and binding on the Seller, Seller Subsidiaries, NonSeller Subsidiaries, the Representative, the Buyer and all other parties, and shall not be subject to challenge or claim by any party.

SECTION 7.09. Final Distribution to Seller. Buyer shall promptly notify Seller or the Representative in writing on or after the Second Distribution Date if there are no amounts due or to be distributed to Seller pursuant to Article VII of this Agreement. Seller shall have 30 days from receipt of such notice to dispute such notification in the manner provided in Section 7.07. If such determination is not disputed or such dispute is resolved pursuant to Section 7.07, Buyer’s obligations under Sections 7.06 and 7.07 shall expire.

SECTION 7.10. Exclusive Remedy. From and after the Closing Date, (a) except with respect to (i) fraud, willful misrepresentation, willful breach, willful misconduct or willful concealment by or on behalf of Seller, (ii) specific performance, and (iii) equitable remedies, each Buyer indemnified party’s right to indemnification under this Agreement constitutes such Buyer indemnified party’s sole and exclusive remedy for Losses from Seller with respect to any inaccuracy in, or any breach of, any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement, obligation or undertaking or pursuant to or in connection herewith or in any Ancillary Document or any failure by Seller to perform any covenant, agreement, obligation or undertaking herein or in any Ancillary Document.

(b) From and after the Closing Date, Seller’s right to indemnification under this Agreement constitutes Seller’s sole and exclusive remedy for Losses from Buyer with respect to any inaccuracy in, or any breach of, any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement, obligation or understanding or pursuant to or in connection herewith or in any

Ancillary Document or any failure by Buyer to perform any covenant, agreement, obligation or undertaking herein or in any Ancillary Document.

SECTION 7.11. Treatment of Indemnification Payments. The parties agree to treat any payment made under this Article VII as an adjustment to the Purchase Price.

SECTION 7.12. Appointment of Representative.

(a) Authority. The Seller and by separate approval, the shareholders of Seller approves the designation of and designates the Representative as the representative of the Seller and as the attorney-in-fact and agent for and on behalf of Seller with respect to claims for indemnification under this Article VII and, except as set forth herein, the taking by the Representative of any and all actions and the making of any decisions required or permitted to be taken by the Representative under this Agreement, including the exercise of the power to: (a) give and receive notices and communications to or from Buyer (on behalf of itself or any other indemnified party) relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions and other matters contemplated hereby or thereby; (b) authorize the release or delivery to Buyer of amounts from the Aggregate Deferred Payment Amount in satisfaction of indemnification claims by Buyer or any other indemnified party pursuant to this Article VII (including by not objecting to such claims); (c) agree to, object to, negotiate, resolve, enter into settlements and compromises of, demand and participate in arbitration, mediation and litigation and comply with orders of courts and awards of arbitrators and mediators with respect to, (i) indemnification claims by Buyer or any other indemnified party pursuant to this Article VII or (ii) any other claim by any indemnified party against any other party or any dispute between any indemnified party and any such other party; and (d) take all actions necessary or appropriate in the judgment of the Representative for the accomplishment of the foregoing. The Representative shall have the authority and power to act on behalf of the Seller and the shareholders of Seller with respect to the disposition, settlement or other handling of all claims under this Article VII and rights or obligations arising under this Article VII. The Seller and the shareholders of Seller shall be bound by all actions taken and documents executed by the Representative in connection with this Agreement and Buyer and other indemnified parties shall be entitled to rely on any action or decision of the Representative. The individual serving as the Representative may be replaced from time to time by the former holders of a majority in interest of the capital stock of Seller upon not fewer than ten (10) days’ prior written notice to Buyer; provided, however, that the Representative may not be removed unless the former holders of a majority in interest of the capital stock of Seller agree to such removal and to the identity of the substituted agent. A vacancy in the position of Representative may be filled by the holders of a majority in capital stock of the Seller. No bond shall be required of the Representative, and the Representative shall receive no compensation for his services. Notices or communications to or from the Representative shall constitute notice to or from each of the Seller and the shareholders of Seller.

(b) Limitation on Liability.

(c) Representative Acts/Decisions. A decision, act, consent or instruction of the Representative, including but not limited to an amendment, extension or waiver of this Agreement, shall constitute a decision of the Seller and the shareholders of Seller and shall be final, binding and conclusive upon the Seller and the shareholders of Seller; and the Buyer may rely upon any such decision, act, consent or instruction of the Representative as being the decision, act consent or instruction of Buyer.

SECTION 11.04. Interpretation. When a reference is made in this Agreement to an Article or to a Section, Subsection or Schedule, such reference shall be to an Article of, a Section or Subsection of, or a Schedule to, this Agreement unless otherwise indicated. The table of contents and headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. Whenever the words “include,” “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” The definitions contained in this Agreement are applicable to the singular as well as the plural forms of such terms. Any agreement or instrument defined or referred to herein or in any agreement or instrument that is referred to herein means such agreement or instrument as from time to time amended, modified or supplemented. References to a person are also to its permitted successors and assigns. Any reference in the Seller’s representations and warranties in Article III of this Agreement to “provision,” “provide to Buyer,” “has provided to Buyer” or similar words shall include the action of Seller’s posting of such written information to the electronic datasite of Buyer’s outside counsel so long as Seller or its attorneys or other representatives shall have posted such written information to such datasite at least one business day prior to the date of this Agreement. The parties agree that any failure to timely post such information to the datasite shall not be deemed to be a “providing” of such information for purposes of the Seller’s representations and warranties in Article III of this Agreement.

SECTION 11.05. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, including counterparts transmitted by facsimile or electronic transmission, each of which shall be an original as regards any party whose signature appears thereon and all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. This Agreement shall become binding when one or more counterparts hereof, individually or taken together, shall bear the signatures of all parties reflected hereon as signatories.

SECTION 11.06. Remedies. Except as specifically set forth herein, any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a party to this Agreement or a party to any Ancillary Document shall be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby or thereby or by law on such party, and the exercise of any one remedy shall not preclude the exercise of any other remedy.

SECTION 11.07. Specific Performance. The parties hereto hereby declare that it is impossible to measure in money the damages which will accrue to Buyer by reason of a failure

of the Seller to perform any of the obligations under this Agreement or the Ancillary Documents and agree that the terms of this Agreement and the Ancillary Documents shall be specifically enforceable against the Seller. If Buyer institutes any action or proceeding to specifically enforce the provisions hereof or thereof, any person against whom such action or proceeding is brought hereby waives the claim or defense therein that such party has an adequate remedy at law, and such person shall not offer in any such action or proceeding the claim or defense that such remedy at law exists. Each party expressly waives any requirement that any other party obtain any bond or provide any indemnity in connection with any action seeking injunctive relief or specific enforcement of the provisions of this Agreement.

SECTION 11.08. Amendments and Waivers. Any term or provision of this Agreement may be amended, and the observance of any term of this Agreement may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively), only by a writing signed by the Buyer and the Seller. The waiver by a party of any breach hereof or default in the performance hereof shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver of any other default or any succeeding breach or default. The failure of either party to enforce any of the provisions hereof shall not be construed to be a waiver of the right of such party thereafter to enforce such provisions.

SECTION 11.09. Severability. If any term or provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of Law or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nonetheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic and legal substance of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

SECTION 11.10. Entire Agreement; No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement and the Ancillary Documents (including the documents and instruments referred to herein or therein) (a) constitute the entire agreement, and supersede all prior agreements, representations and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and (b) except as set forth in Article VII, are not intended to confer upon any person other than the parties hereto any rights or remedies. The parties hereto agree this Agreement has been jointly drafted by the parties and, therefore, waive the application of any law, regulation, holding or rule of construction providing that ambiguities in an agreement or other document shall be construed against the party drafting such agreement or document.

SECTION 11.11. Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE, REGARDLESS OF THE LAWS THAT MIGHT OTHERWISE GOVERN UNDER APPLICABLE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAWS THEREOF.

SECTION 11.12. Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned, in whole or in part, by operation of Law or otherwise by any of the parties without the prior written consent of the other parties. Subject to

the preceding sentence, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by, the parties and their respective successors and assigns.

SECTION 11.13. Consent to Jurisdiction. Each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of (a) any California State court sitting in the County of Santa Clara and (b) the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, for the purposes of any Litigation arising out of this Agreement or the Ancillary Documents or any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby (and each agrees that no such Litigation relating to this Agreement or the Ancillary Documents shall be brought by it or any of its affiliates except in such courts). Each of the parties hereto further agrees that, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, service of any process, summons, notice or document by U.S. registered mail to such person’s respective address set forth in Section 11.02 shall be effective service of process for any Litigation in California with respect to any matters to which it has submitted to jurisdiction as set forth above in the immediately preceding sentence. Each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally waives (and agrees not to plead or claim) any objection to the laying of venue of any Litigation arising out of this Agreement or the Ancillary Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby in (a) any California State court sitting in the County of Santa Clara or (b) the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, or that any such Litigation brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

SECTION 11.14. Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF ANY LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVER AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 11.14.
