(b) If prior to Closing, it is discovered that a Contract or Lease should have been listed on Schedule 4.12 but was not listed on Schedule 4.12 (such Contract or Lease, a “Previously Omitted Contract”), Seller shall, promptly following the discovery thereof or receipt of notice from Buyer of its desire to designate any such Previously Omitted Contract as a Material Contract (but in no event later than three (3) Business Days following the discovery thereof or receipt of such notice), notify Buyer in writing of such Previously Omitted Contract.

The aggregate consideration for the Acquired Assets shall be (A) an aggregate dollar amount equal to $62,500,000, as adjusted by an amount, if any, equal to the Closing Working Capital minus the Closing Working Capital Target (the “Purchase Price”), plus (B) Buyer’s assumption of the Assumed Liabilities not accounted for in the Closing Working Capital or Closing Purchase Price Adjustment calculations.

Sellers’ Representative, on behalf of Sellers, will have the right to raise reasonable objections to the Allocation within thirty (30) days after Buyer’s delivery thereof, in which event Buyer and Sellers’ Representative will negotiate in good faith to resolve such dispute. If Buyer and Sellers’ Representative cannot resolve such dispute within fifteen (15) days after Sellers’ Representative notifies Buyer of such objections, such dispute with respect to the Allocation shall be resolved promptly by the Neutral Accountant. The fees, costs and expenses of the Neutral Accountant (i) shall be borne by Buyer in the proportion that the aggregate dollar amount of all such disputed items so submitted that are unsuccessfully disputed by Buyer (as finally determined by the Neutral Accountant) bears to the aggregate dollar amount of such items so submitted and (ii) shall be borne by Sellers in the proportion that the aggregate dollar amount of such disputed items so submitted that are successfully disputed by Buyer (as finally determined by the Neutral Accountant) bears to the aggregate dollar amount of all such items so submitted. The decision of the Neutral Accountant in respect of the Allocation shall be final and binding upon Buyer and Sellers. Buyer and Sellers shall file all Tax Returns (including Internal Revenue Service Form 8594) consistent with the Allocation absent a change in Law; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall prevent Buyer or any Seller from settling any proposed deficiency or adjustment by any Tax Authority based upon or arising out of the Allocation, and neither Buyer nor any Seller shall be required to litigate before any court any proposed deficiency or adjustment by any Tax Authority challenging such Allocation.

Buyer has not colluded in connection with its offer or negotiation of this Agreement. From and after the date hereof, Buyer shall not take any action that is intended to result in, or fail to take any action the intent of which failure to act would result in, the reversal, voiding, modification or staying of the Bidding Procedures Order, or if Buyer is the Successful Bidder at the Auction, the Sale Order or consummation of the Transactions.

(f) Buyer agrees that it will promptly take such actions as are reasonably requested by Sellers to assist in obtaining entry of the Sale Order, including furnishing affidavits or other documents or information for filing with the Bankruptcy Court for the purposes, among others, of demonstrating that Buyer is a “good faith” purchaser under section 363(m) of the Bankruptcy Code; provided, however, in no event shall Buyer or Sellers be required to agree to any amendment of this Agreement.

Following the Auction, if the Successful Bidder fails to consummate the applicable Alternative Transaction as a result of a breach or failure to perform on the part of such Successful Bidder, then Buyer, if Buyer is the Back-Up Bidder, will be deemed to have the new prevailing bid, and Sellers may seek authority to consummate the Transactions on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement (as the same may be improved upon by Buyer in the Auction) with the Back-Up Bidder.

(i) In consideration for Buyer having expended considerable time and expense in connection with this Agreement, the Transactions, the negotiation of this Agreement, and the identification and quantification of the assets and Liabilities of Sellers, upon the consummation of any Alternative Transaction following any such termination or as otherwise specified in Section 8.2, Buyer shall be deemed to have earned the Break-Up Fee and Expense Reimbursement, which shall be paid in cash, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Buyer by Sellers, without further order of the Bankruptcy Court.

Sellers hereby acknowledge that the obligation to pay the Break-Up Fee and Expense Reimbursement (to the extent due hereunder) shall survive the termination of this Agreement and shall have administrative expense status against Sellers and their estate. The Parties acknowledge and agree that (1) the Parties have expressly negotiated the provisions of this Section 6.7(i), (2) the payment of the Break-Up Fee and Expense Reimbursement are integral parts of this Agreement, and (3) in the absence of Sellers’ obligations to make these payments, Buyer would not have entered into this Agreement.

The representations and warranties of Buyer (i) set forth in Section 5.1 (Organization) and Section 5.2 (Due Authorization), shall be true and correct in all material respects, and (ii) set forth in Article 5 (other than those described in clause (i)) shall be true and correct (disregarding all qualifications or limitations as to “materiality” or “Buyer Material Adverse Effect” and words of similar import set forth therein), except where the failure of such representations or warranties to be true and correct would not reasonably be expected to have a Buyer Material Adverse Effect, in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii), as of the Agreement Date and at and as of the Closing as though made at and as of the Closing (in each case, except to the extent expressly made as of another date, in which case as of such date as if made at and as of such date).

(b) Performance of Obligations. Buyer shall have performed in all material respects all obligations and agreements contained in this Agreement required to be performed by it on or prior to the Closing Date, including all deliveries required under Section 3.1(c).

(c) Sale Order. The Bankruptcy Court shall have entered the Sale Order, and no Order staying, reversing, modifying or amending such Sale Order shall be in effect on the Closing Date.

(d) Officer’s Certificate. Sellers shall have received a certificate, dated the Closing Date, of a duly authorized executive officer of Buyer to the effect that the conditions specified in Section 7.2(a) and Section 7.2(b) above have been fulfilled.

(e) No Order. No court or other Governmental Entity has issued, enacted, entered, promulgated or enforced any Law or Order (that is final and non-appealable and that has not been vacated, withdrawn or overturned) restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

7.3 Frustration of Conditions Precedent. Neither Buyer nor Sellers may rely on the failure of any condition set forth in this Article 7, as applicable, to be satisfied if such failure was caused by such Party’s failure to use, as required by this Agreement, its reasonable best efforts to consummate the Transactions contemplated hereby.

ARTICLE 8
TERMINATION

8.1 Termination of Agreement. This Agreement may be terminated and the Transactions abandoned at any time prior to the Closing:

(a) by mutual written agreement of Sellers and Buyer;

(b) by either Sellers or Buyer:

(i) if there shall be any Law that makes consummation of the Transactions illegal or otherwise prohibited, or if any Order permanently restraining, prohibiting or enjoining Buyer or Sellers from consummating the Transactions is entered and such Order shall become final; provided, however, that no termination may be made by a Party under this Section 8.1(b)(i) if the issuance of such Order was caused by the material breach of any representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement by such Party; or

(ii) upon Sellers’ written agreement to enter into an Alternative Transaction.

(c) by Buyer by giving written notice to each Seller if there has been a breach by any Seller of any representation, warranty, covenant, or agreement contained in this Agreement that would prevent the satisfaction of the conditions to the obligations of Buyer at Closing set forth in Section 7.1(a) and Section 7.1(b), and such breach has not been waived by Buyer, or, if such breach is curable, cured by such Seller prior to the earlier to occur of (A) twenty (20) days after receipt of Buyer’s notice of such breach, and (B) the Outside Date; provided, that Buyer shall not have a right of termination pursuant to this Section 8.1(c) if Sellers could, at such time, terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(i);

(d) by Buyer, if (i) the DIP Order shall not have been entered by the deadline set forth in this Agreement, (ii) the Bidding Procedures Order shall not have been entered by the deadline set forth in this Agreement, (iii) the Sale Order shall not have been entered by the deadline set forth in this Agreement, or (iv) at any time after entry of the DIP Order, the Bidding Procedures Order, and the Sale Order, such Orders are reversed, stayed for more than fourteen (14) days, vacated or modified to the extent such modifications are reasonably expected to have a Seller Material Adverse Effect;

(e) by Buyer, if any Party seeks to have the Bankruptcy Court enter an order dismissing, or converting into a case under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Case, or appointing a trustee in the Bankruptcy Case or appointing a responsible officer or an examiner under Bankruptcy Code section 1106(b);

(f) by Buyer, upon occurrence of any Seller Material Adverse Effect;

(g) by Buyer if (i) Sellers consummate an Alternative Transaction, or (ii) Buyer is neither the Successful Bidder nor the Back-Up Bidder following the Auction;

(h) by Buyer or Sellers if the Closing shall not have occurred on or before the Outside Date, provided, however that no termination may be made a Party under this Section 8.1(h) if the failure to close on or before the Outside Date was caused by the material breach of any representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement by such Party;

(i) by Sellers by giving written notice to Buyer if there has been a breach by Buyer of any representation, warranty, covenant, or agreement contained in this Agreement that would prevent the satisfaction of the conditions to the obligations of Sellers at Closing set forth in Section 7.2(a) and Section 7.2(b), and such breach has not been waived by Sellers, or, if such breach is curable, cured by such Buyer prior to the earlier to occur of (A) twenty (20) days after receipt of Sellers’ notice of such breach, and (B) the Outside Date; provided, that Sellers shall not have a right of termination pursuant to this Section 8.1(i) if Buyers could, at such time, terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(c); or

(j) by Sellers if the governing body of Sellers determines, upon advice from outside legal counsel, that proceeding with the Transactions or failing to terminate this Agreement would violate its or such governing body’s fiduciary obligations under applicable Law, including to pursue an Alternative Transaction. For the avoidance of doubt, and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including Buyer’s right to terminate this Agreement in accordance with this Section 8.1), Sellers retain the right to pursue any transaction or restructuring strategy that, in Seller’s business judgment, will maximize the value of its estates.

Each condition set forth in this Section 8.1 pursuant to which this Agreement may be terminated shall be considered separate and distinct from each other such condition. If more than one of the termination conditions set forth in this Section 8.1 is applicable, the applicable Party shall have the right to choose the termination condition pursuant to which this Agreement is to be terminated.

8.2 Consequences of Termination. In the event of any termination of this Agreement by either or both of Buyer and Sellers pursuant to Section 8.1, written Notice thereof shall be given by the terminating Party to the other Parties hereto, specifying the provision hereof pursuant to which such termination is made, this Agreement shall thereupon terminate and become void and of no further force and effect (other than Section 6.3 (Public Announcements), Section 6.7(g), this Section 8.2 (Consequences of Termination) and Article 9 (Miscellaneous) and to the extent applicable in respect of such Sections and Article, Article 1 (Definitions)), and the Transactions shall be abandoned without further action or Liability of any of the Parties hereto, except that such termination shall not relieve any Party of any Liability for Fraud or breach of this Agreement prior to such termination; provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, subject to Section 9.10(d), (i) the sole and exclusive remedies of Buyer for any breach of this Agreement by Sellers shall be, if applicable, to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(c), and (ii) in no event shall Sellers be liable for monetary damages in connection with this Agreement and the Transactions except for payment of the Break-Up Fee and Expense Reimbursement to the extent payable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that this Agreement is terminated pursuant to: (a) any of Section 8.1(b)(ii), 8.1(g) or 8.1(j), Sellers shall pay Buyer the Break-Up Fee; and/or (b) any of Section 8.1(b)(ii), 8.1(c), 8.1(e), 8.1(g), or 8.1(j), then Sellers shall pay Buyer the Expense Reimbursement, in each case as provided under Section 6.7(i).

ARTICLE 9
MISCELLANEOUS

9.1 Expenses. Except as set forth in this Agreement, including with respect to the Break-Up Fee and Expense Reimbursement, and whether or not the Transactions are consummated, each Party hereto shall bear all costs and expenses incurred or to be incurred by such Party in connection with this Agreement and the consummation of the Transactions.

9.2 Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights or obligations hereunder may be assigned by Sellers without the prior written consent of Buyer, or by Buyer without the prior written consent of Sellers; provided that Buyer may, without the consent of any other party, assign this Agreement and its rights and obligations hereunder in whole or in part to any Affiliate; provided further, that Buyer shall remain jointly and severally liable with such Affiliate for Buyer’s obligations hereunder. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns, including any liquidating trustee, responsible Person or similar representative for Sellers or Sellers’ estate appointed in connection with the Chapter 11 Cases.

9.3 Parties in Interest. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of Sellers (and their estates), Buyer and their respective successors or permitted assigns, and nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person any rights, benefits or remedies of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement except as expressly set forth herein.

9.4 Notices. All notices, demands, requests, consents, approvals or other communications (collectively, “Notices”) required or permitted to be given hereunder or that are given with respect to this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be personally served, delivered by a nationally recognized overnight delivery service with charges prepaid, or transmitted by hand delivery, or facsimile or electronic mail, addressed as set forth below, or to such other address as such Party shall have specified most recently by written Notice.

Rejection of or refusal to accept any Notice, or the inability to deliver any Notice because of changed address of which no Notice was given, shall be deemed to be receipt of the Notice as of the date of such rejection, refusal or inability to deliver.

9.5 Choice of Law. Except to the extent the mandatory provisions of the Bankruptcy Code apply, this Agreement shall be construed and interpreted, and the rights of the Parties shall be determined, in accordance with the Laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any provision thereof that would require or permit the application of the substantive laws of any other jurisdiction.

9.6 Entire Agreement; Amendments and Waivers. This Agreement, the Disclosure Schedules, the Exhibits hereto, the Sale Order, and all Transaction Documents and all certificates and instruments delivered pursuant hereto and thereto constitute the entire agreement among the Parties pertaining to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements, understandings, negotiations, and discussions, whether oral or written, of the Parties. This Agreement may be amended, supplemented or modified, and any of the terms, covenants, representations, warranties or conditions may be waived, only by a written instrument executed by Buyer and Sellers, or in the case of a waiver, by the Party waiving compliance. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed or shall constitute a waiver of any other provision hereof (whether or not similar), and no such waiver shall constitute a continuing waiver unless otherwise expressly provided.

9.7 Counterparts; Facsimile and Electronic Signatures. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, and all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Counterparts to this Agreement may be executed via physical or electronic signature and delivered via facsimile, electronic mail, or other means of electronic transmission. In proving this Agreement, it shall not be necessary to produce or account for more than one such counterpart signed by the Party against whom enforcement is sought.

9.8 Severability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provisions of this Agreement. In the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be held by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, such provisions shall be limited or eliminated only to the minimum extent necessary so that this Agreement shall otherwise remain in full force and effect.

9.9 Headings. The table of contents and the headings of the Articles and Sections herein are inserted for convenience of reference only and are not intended to be a part of, or to affect the meaning or interpretation of, this Agreement.

9.10 Exclusive Jurisdiction; Specific Performance.

(a) Subject to Section 9.10(b), without limiting any Party’s right to appeal any order of the Bankruptcy Court, (i) the Bankruptcy Court shall retain exclusive jurisdiction to enforce the terms of this Agreement and to decide any Claims or disputes which may arise or result from, or be connected with, this Agreement, any breach or default hereunder, or the Transactions, and (ii) any and all Proceedings related to the foregoing shall be filed and maintained only in the Bankruptcy Court, and the Parties hereby consent to and submit to the jurisdiction and venue of the Bankruptcy Court and shall receive Notices at such locations as indicated in Section 9.4. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 9.10 shall not apply to any Claims that Buyer or its Affiliates may have against any third party following the Closing.

(b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event the Chapter 11 Cases of Sellers are closed or dismissed, the Parties hereby agree that all Claims or disputes which may arise or result from, or be connected with, this Agreement, any breach or default hereunder, or the Transactions, shall be heard and determined exclusively in any federal court sitting in the District of Delaware or, if that court does not have subject matter jurisdiction, in any state court located in Delaware (and, in each case, any appellate court thereof), and the Parties hereby consent to and submit to the jurisdiction and venue of such courts.

(c) Buyer acknowledges that Sellers would be damaged irreparably in the event that the terms of this Agreement are not performed by Buyer in accordance with its specific terms or otherwise breached or Buyer fails to consummate the Closing and that, in addition to any other remedy that Sellers may have under law or equity, Sellers shall be entitled to seek injunctive relief to prevent breaches of the terms of this Agreement and to seek to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof that are required to be performed by Buyer. Buyer further agrees that Sellers shall not be required to obtain, furnish or post any bond or similar instrument in connection with or as a condition to obtaining any remedy referred to in this Section 9.10, and irrevocably waives any right it may have to require the obtaining, furnishing or posting of any such bond or similar instrument.

(d) Sellers acknowledge that Buyer would be damaged irreparably in the event that the terms of this Agreement are not performed by Sellers in accordance with its specific terms or otherwise breached or Sellers fail to consummate the Closing and that, in addition to any other remedy that Buyer may have under law or equity, Buyer shall be entitled to seek injunctive relief to prevent breaches of the terms of this Agreement and to seek to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof that are required to be performed by Sellers. Sellers further agree that Buyer shall not be required to obtain, furnish or post any bond or similar instrument in connection with or as a condition to obtaining any remedy referred to in this Section 9.10, and irrevocably waives any right it may have to require the obtaining, furnishing or posting of any such bond or similar instrument.

9.11 WAIVER OF RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY. SELLERS AND BUYER HEREBY WAIVE TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW ANY RIGHT THEY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). FOR THE AVOIDANCE OF DOUBT, THIS SECTION 9.11 SHALL NOT APPLY TO ANY CLAIMS THAT BUYER OR ITS AFFILIATES MAY HAVE AGAINST ANY THIRD PARTY FOLLOWING THE CLOSING.

9.12 Survival. Each and every representation and warranty contained in this Agreement shall expire and be of no further force and effect as of the Closing. Each and every covenant and agreement contained in this Agreement (other than the covenants contained in this Agreement which by their terms are to be performed (in whole or in part) by the Parties following the Closing (each, a “Post-Closing Covenant”)) shall expire and be of no further force and effect as of the Closing. Each Post-Closing Covenant shall survive the Closing until the earlier of (a) performance of such Post-Closing Covenant in accordance with this Agreement or, (b) (i) if time for performance of such Post-Closing Covenant is specified in this Agreement, sixty (60) days following the expiration of the time period for such performance or (ii) if time for performance of such Post-Closing Covenant is not specified in this Agreement, sixty (60) days following the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations with respect to any claim for any failure to perform such Post-Closing Covenant; provided that if a written notice of any claim with respect to any Post-Closing Covenant is given prior to the expiration thereof then such Post-Closing Covenant shall survive until, but only for purposes of, the resolution of such claim by final, non-appealable judgment or settlement.

9.13 Computation of Time. In computing any period of time prescribed by or allowed with respect to any provision of this Agreement that relates to Seller or the Chapter 11 Cases, the provisions of Bankruptcy Rule 9006(a) shall apply.

9.14 Time of Essence. Time is of the essence of this Agreement.

9.15 Non-Recourse. No past, present or future director, manager, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner or equity holder of Buyer or Sellers shall have any Liability for any Liabilities of Buyer or Sellers, respectively, under this Agreement or for any Claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of the Transactions. This Agreement may only be enforced against, and any Claim, action (including in the Chapter 11 Case), suit, Proceeding or investigation based upon, arising out of or related to this Agreement may only be brought against, the Persons that are expressly named as parties to this Agreement.

9.16 Disclosure Schedules. Except as set forth in this Agreement, the inclusion of any information (including dollar amounts) in Disclosure Schedules shall not be deemed to be an admission or acknowledgment by any Party that such information is required to be listed on such section of the relevant schedule or is material to or outside the Ordinary Course of Business of any Person. The information contained in this Agreement, the exhibits hereto and the Disclosure Schedules is disclosed solely for purposes of this Agreement, and no information contained herein or therein shall be deemed to be an admission by any Party to any third party of any matter whatsoever (including any violation of any Law or breach of contract). Unless the context otherwise requires, all capitalized terms used in the Disclosure Schedules shall have the respective meanings assigned in this Agreement. The Disclosure Schedules set forth items of disclosure with specific reference to the particular Section or subsection of this Agreement to which the information in the Disclosure Schedules relates; provided, however, that any information set forth in one Schedule to the Disclosure Schedules will be deemed to apply to each other section or subsection thereof to which its relevance is reasonably apparent on its face. From the Agreement Date to three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing, Sellers have the continuing obligation to (a) promptly supplement, modify, or amend the information set forth on the Disclosure Schedules with respect to any matter hereafter arising or discovered after the Agreement Date which, if existing or known at the Agreement Date, would have been required to have been set forth on such Disclosure Schedules, and (b) if necessary or appropriate to correct any inaccuracy in a representation made by Sellers resulting from any matter hereafter arising or discovered after the Agreement Date, to promptly add a schedule to the Disclosure Schedules with a corresponding reference in this Agreement (such hereafter arising or discovered information, the “Updating Information”). Sellers shall provide Buyer written notice within two (2) Business Days of becoming aware of the need for any Updating Information.

9.17 Sellers’ Representative; Dealings Among Sellers. By its execution and delivery of this Agreement, each Seller hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints EYP as its true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact (the “Sellers’ Representative”), with full power of substitution to act in such Seller’s name, place and stead with respect to all Transactions and all terms and provisions of this Agreement, and to act on such Seller’s behalf in any Proceeding, and to do or refrain from doing all such further acts and things, and execute all such documents as Sellers’ Representative shall deem necessary or appropriate in connection with the Transactions. The appointment of Sellers’ Representative shall be deemed coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable, and Buyer, its Affiliates and any other Person may conclusively and absolutely rely, without inquiry, upon any action of Sellers’ Representative on behalf of Sellers in all matters referred to herein or contemplated hereby including any direction regarding the amount of any payment to any Seller. Buyer shall have no obligation of any nature whatsoever for determining any allocation of any payments among Sellers. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, absent specific direction by Sellers’ Representative, Buyer shall be deemed to have fulfilled its obligations hereunder absolutely with respect to any amounts payable by it under or pursuant to this Agreement or the delivery of any instruments if Buyer shall pay any such amounts or deliver such instruments to Sellers’ Representative. All Notices delivered by Buyer (whether prior to or following the Closing) to Sellers’ Representative (whether pursuant hereto or otherwise) for the benefit of Sellers shall constitute valid and timely Notice to all of Sellers.

9.18 Mutual Drafting. This Agreement is the result of the joint efforts of Buyer and Sellers, and each provision hereof has been subject to the mutual consultation, negotiation and agreement of the Parties and there is to be no construction against any Party based on any presumption of that Party’s involvement in the drafting thereof.

9.19 Fiduciary Obligations. Nothing in this Agreement, or any document related to the Transactions contemplated hereby, without limiting in any way Buyer’s rights and remedies set forth in this Agreement, will require Sellers or any of its governing bodies, directors, officers or members, in each case, in their capacity as such, to take any action, or to refrain from taking any action, to the extent inconsistent with their fiduciary obligations.

9.20 No Right of Set-off. Except as otherwise provided herein, including with respect to the Secured Debt, Buyer and its respective successors and permitted assigns hereby waives any rights of set-off, netting, offset, recoupment, or similar rights that Buyer or any of its successors and permitted assigns has or may have with respect to the payment of the Purchase Price or any other payments to be made by Buyer pursuant to this Agreement, any Transaction Documents, or any other document or instrument delivered by Buyer in connection herewith.
