“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER SAID ACT, OR PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER SAID ACT INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, PURSUANT TO RULES 144 OR 144A UNDER SAID ACT OR PURSUANT TO A PRIVATE SALE EFFECTED UNDER APPLICABLE FORMAL OR INFORMAL SEC INTERPRETATION OR GUIDANCE, SUCH AS A SO-CALLED “4(1) AND A HALF” SALE.”

(ii) The Exchange Shares and the certificates evidencing the Conversion Shares, as applicable, shall not contain any legend restricting the transfer thereof (including the legend set forth above: (A) while a registration statement (including a Registration Statement, as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) covering the sale or resale of such security is effective under the Securities Act, or (B) following any sale of such Exchange Shares and/or Conversion Shares pursuant to Rule 144, or (C) if such Exchange Shares and/or Conversion Shares are eligible for sale under Rule 144(b)(1), or (D) if such legend is not required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the staff of the Commission) (collectively, the “Unrestricted Conditions”). The Company shall cause its counsel to issue a legal opinion to the Transfer Agent promptly after the Registration Date (as defined below) if required by the Company’s transfer agent to effect the issuance of the Exchange Shares or the Conversion Shares, as applicable, without a restrictive legend or removal of the legend hereunder. If the Unrestricted Conditions are met at the time of issuance of the Exchange Shares or the Conversion Shares, then such Exchange Shares or Conversion Shares, as applicable, shall be issued free of all legends.

No notice shall be required of such pledge, but any Investor’s transferee shall promptly notify the Company of any such subsequent transfer or foreclosure. Each Investor acknowledges that the Company shall not be responsible for any pledges relating to, or the grant of any security interest in, any of the Exchange Shares or Conversion Shares or for any agreement, understanding or arrangement between such Investor and its pledgee or secured party.

The failure of any person to deliver the notice required by this Section 8(c) shall not in any way affect the Indemnifying Party’s indemnification obligations hereunder except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced thereby. In case any such proceeding shall be brought against any indemnified party and it shall notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it shall, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such Indemnified Party and shall pay as incurred the fees and expenses of such counsel related to such proceeding. In any such proceeding, any Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain its own counsel or pay its own expenses.

No written waiver hereunder, unless it by its own terms explicitly provides to the contrary, shall be construed to effect a continuing waiver of the provisions being waived and no such waiver in any instance shall constitute a waiver in any other instance or for any other purpose or impair the right of the party against whom such waiver is claimed in all other instances or for all other purposes to require full compliance with such provision.

Neither this Agreement nor any right, remedy, obligation or liability arising hereunder or by reason hereof shall be transferable or assignable by any Investor (including pursuant to termination, liquidation, dissolution or death) without the prior written consent of the Company.

(g) This Agreement contains the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the matters covered hereby, and there are no representations, warranties, covenants or other agreements except as stated or referred to herein or therein.

(h) Any term or provision of this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without rendering invalid or unenforceable the remaining terms or provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction.

(i) The headings in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof.

(j) THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO THE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW THEREOF.

(k) The parties hereto agree that all claims, controversies and disputes of any kind or nature relating in any way to the enforcement or interpretation of this Agreement or to the parties’ dealings, rights or obligations in connection herewith, shall be brought exclusively in the state and federal courts sitting in The City of New York, Borough of Manhattan. With respect to any such claims, controversies or disputes, each of the Parties hereby irrevocably:

(i) submits itself and its property, generally and unconditionally, to the personal jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts and agrees that it will not bring any action in any court or tribunal other than the aforesaid courts;

(ii) waives, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any action or proceeding (A) any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the above named courts for any reason other than the failure to serve process in accordance with this Section 10(k(ii), (B) any claim that it or its property is exempt or immune from jurisdiction of any such court or from any legal process commenced in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise) and (C) to the fullest extent permitted by the applicable law, any claim that (1) the suit, action or proceeding in such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, (2) the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper or (3) this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced in or by such courts; and

(iii) WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY DISPUTE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (I) NO REPRESENTATIVE OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER IN THE EVENT OF A LEGAL ACTION, (II) SUCH PARTY HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER, (III) SUCH PARTY MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY AND (IV) SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 10(k).

Notwithstanding the foregoing in this Section 10(j), a party may commence any action or proceeding in a court other than the above-named courts solely for the purpose of enforcing an order or judgment issued by one of the above-named courts.

(l) EACH PARTY, ON BEHALF OF ITSELF AND ITS RESPECTIVE SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS, HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ANY RIGHTS THEY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BY CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) BASED UPON, OR ARISING OUT OF, THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

(m) The Company acknowledges that the obligations imposed on it in this Agreement are special, unique and of an extraordinary character, and irreparable damages, for which money damages, even if available, would be an inadequate remedy, would occur in the event that the Company does not perform the provisions of this Agreement in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breaches such provisions. Therefore, the Company and the Investors shall be entitled to seek an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled, at law or in equity, including without limitation money damages.
