(a) Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally, absolutely and irrevocably, guarantees, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, to the Secured Party the prompt and complete payment and performance by the Buyer when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the Guaranteed Obligations. This guarantee is a guarantee of payment, not merely of collection.

(b) Notwithstanding any payment made by any Guarantor hereunder or any set-off or application of funds of any Guarantor by the Secured Party, no Guarantor shall be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of the Secured Party against the Buyer or any Guarantor or any collateral security or guarantee or right of offset held by the Secured Party for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, nor shall any Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from the Buyer or any other Guarantor in respect of payments made by such Guarantor hereunder, until all amounts owing to the Secured Party on account of the Guaranteed Obligations are paid in full. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Guaranteed Obligations shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held by such Guarantor in trust for the Secured Party, segregated from other funds of such Guarantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Guarantor, be turned over to the Secured Party in the exact form received by such Guarantor (duly indorsed by such Guarantor to the Secured Party, if required), to be applied against the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in such order as the Secured Party may determine.

(c) Each Guarantor shall remain obligated hereunder notwithstanding that, without any reservation of rights against such Guarantor and without notice to or further assent by such Guarantor, any demand for payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations made by the Secured Party may be rescinded by the Secured Party and any of the Guaranteed Obligations continued, and the Guaranteed Obligations, or the liability of any other Person upon or for any part thereof, or any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered or released by the Secured Party, and the Stock Purchase Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements and any other documents executed and delivered in connection therewith may be amended, modified, supplemented or terminated, in whole or in part, as the Secured Party may deem advisable from time to time, and any collateral security, guarantee or right of offset at any time held by the Secured Party for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations may be sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered or released. The Secured Party shall have no obligation to protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien at any time held by it as security for the Guaranteed Obligations or for the guarantee contained in this Section 2.1 or any property subject thereto.

(d) Each Guarantor waives any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by the Secured Party upon the guarantee contained in this Section 2.1 or acceptance of the guarantee contained in this Section 2.1; the Guaranteed Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred, or renewed, extended, amended or waived, in reliance upon the guarantee contained in this Section 2.1; and all dealings between the Buyer and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Secured Party, on the other hand, likewise shall be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in

4

reliance upon the guarantee contained in this Section 2.1. Each Guarantor waives diligence, presentment, protest, demand for payment and notice of default or nonpayment to or upon the Buyer or such Guarantor with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations. Each Guarantor understands and agrees that the guarantee contained in this Section 2.1 shall be construed as a continuing, absolute and unconditional guarantee of payment without regard to (a) the validity or enforceability of the Stock Purchase Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements, any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other collateral security therefor or guarantee or right of offset with respect thereto at any time or from time to time held by the Secured Party, (b) any defense, set-off or counterclaim (other than a defense of payment or performance) which may at any time be available to or be asserted by the Buyer or any other Person against the Secured Party or (c) any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of the Buyer or any Guarantor) which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of Buyer for the Guaranteed Obligations, or of any Guarantor under the guarantee contained in this Section 2.1, in bankruptcy or in any other instance. When making any demand hereunder or otherwise pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against any Guarantor, the Secured Party may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand on or otherwise pursue such rights and remedies as it may have against the Buyer or any other Person or against any collateral security or guarantee for the Guaranteed Obligations or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure by the Secured Party to make any such demand, to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from the Buyer, or any other Person or to realize upon any such collateral security or guarantee or to exercise any such right of offset, or any release of the Buyer, or any other Person or any such collateral security, guarantee or right of offset, shall not relieve such Guarantor of any obligation or liability hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of the Secured Party against such Guarantor. For the purposes hereof “demand” shall include the commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings.

(e) To the extent not prohibited by applicable law, the guarantee contained in this Section 2.1 shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Secured Party upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the Buyer or any Guarantor, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, the Buyer or any Guarantor or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payments had not been made.

(f) Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall be limited to a maximum aggregate amount equal to the greatest amount that would not render such Guarantor’s obligations hereunder subject to avoidance as a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under Section 548 of Title 11 of the United States Code or any provision of applicable state law.

(d) Each Grantor hereby authorizes and instructs each Issuer of any Pledged Equity Interests pledged by such Grantor hereunder to (i) comply with any instruction received by it from the Secured Party in writing that (x) states that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (y) is otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, without any other or further instructions from such Grantor, and such Grantor agrees that each Issuer shall be fully protected in so complying, and (ii) unless otherwise expressly permitted hereby, pay any dividends or other payments with respect to the Pledged Equity Interests directly to the Secured Party.

5.2 Code and Other Remedies. If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Secured Party may exercise, in addition to all other rights and remedies granted to it in this Agreement, the Stock Purchase Agreement and any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to the Secured Obligations, all rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC or any other applicable law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Secured Party, without demand of performance or other demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of any kind (except any notice required by law referred to below) to or upon any Grantor or any other Person (all and each of which demands, defenses, advertisements and notices are hereby waived), may in such circumstances forthwith collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, and/or may forthwith sell, lease, assign, give option or options to purchase, or otherwise dispose of and deliver the Collateral or any part thereof (or contract to do any of the foregoing), in one or more parcels at public or private sale or sales, at any exchange, broker’s board or office of the Secured Party or elsewhere upon such terms and conditions as it may deem advisable and at such prices as it may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk. The Secured Party shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption in the Grantors, which right or equity is hereby waived and released. Each Grantor further agrees, at the Secured Party’s request, to assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Secured Party at places which the Secured Party shall reasonably select, whether at and Grantor’s premises or elsewhere. The Secured Party shall apply the net proceeds of any action taken by it pursuant to this Section 5.2, after deducting all reasonable costs and expenses of every kind incurred in connection therewith or incidental to the care or safekeeping of any of the Collateral or in any way relating to the Collateral or the rights of the Secured Party hereunder, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, to the payment and satisfaction in whole or in part of the Secured Obligations, in such order as the Secured Party may elect, and only after such application and after the payment by the Secured Party of any other amount required by any provision of law, including, without limitation, Section 9-615(a)(3) of the UCC, need the Secured Party account for the surplus, if any, to the Grantors. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Grantor waives all claims, damages and demands it may acquire against the Secured Party arising out of the exercise by them of any rights hereunder. If any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of Collateral shall be required by law, such notice shall be deemed reasonable and proper if given at least 10 days before such sale or other disposition.

10

5.3 Sales of Collateral.

(a) Each Grantor recognizes that the Secured Party may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all the Pledged Equity Interests, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or otherwise, and may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales thereof to a restricted group of purchasers which will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire such securities for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that any such private sale may result in prices and other terms less favorable than if such sale were a public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. The Secured Party shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any of the Pledged Equity Interests for the period of time necessary to permit the Issuer thereof to register such securities for public sale under the Securities Act, or under applicable state securities laws, even if such Issuer would agree to do so.

(b) Each Grantor agrees to use its best efforts to do or cause to be done all such other acts as may be necessary to make such sale or sales of all or any portion of the Pledged Equity Interests pursuant to this Section 5.3 valid and binding and in compliance with any and all other applicable laws. Each Grantor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section 5.3 will cause irreparable injury to the Secured Party, that the Secured Party have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this Section 5.3 shall be specifically enforceable against each such Grantor, and each Grantor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no Event of Default has occurred.

5.4 Deficiency. The Grantors shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay the Secured Obligations and the fees and disbursements of any attorneys employed by the Secured Party to collect such deficiency.

SECTION 6. THE SECURED PARTY

6.1 Secured Party’s Appointment as Attorney-in-Fact, etc.

(a) Each Grantor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Secured Party and any officer or agent thereof, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of such Grantor and in the name of such Grantor or in its own name, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Agreement, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor hereby gives the Secured Party the power and right, on behalf of such Grantor, without notice to or assent by such Grantor, to do any or all of the following:

(i) pay or discharge taxes and Liens levied or placed on or threatened against the Collateral;

(ii) to receive, indorse and collect any other instruments or documents in connection with the Collateral;

11

(iii) execute, in connection with any sale provided for in Section 5, any indorsements, assignments or other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to the Collateral; and

(iv) (1) direct any party liable for any payment under any of the Collateral to make payment of any and all moneys due or to become due thereunder directly to the Secured Party or as the Secured Party shall direct; (2) commence and prosecute any suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect the Collateral or any portion thereof and to enforce any other right in respect of any Collateral; (3) defend any suit, action or proceeding brought against such Grantor with respect to any Collateral; (4) settle, compromise or adjust any such suit, action or proceeding and, in connection therewith, give such discharges or releases as the Secured Party may deem appropriate; and (5) generally, sell, transfer, pledge and make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any of the Collateral as fully and completely as though the Secured Party were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and do, at the Secured Party’s option and such Grantor’s expense, at any time, or from time to time, all acts and things which the Secured Party deems necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral and the Secured Party’s security interests therein and to effect the intent of this Agreement, all as fully and effectively as such Grantor might do.

Anything in this Section 6.1(a) to the contrary notwithstanding, the Secured Party agrees that it will not exercise any rights under the power of attorney provided for in this Section 6.1(a) unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

(b) For so long as an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, if any Grantor fails to perform or comply with any of its agreements contained herein, the Secured Party, at its option, but without any obligation so to do, may perform or comply, or otherwise cause performance or compliance, with such agreement. No such action will create any liability on the part of the Secured Party to any Grantor.

(c) The expenses of the Secured Party incurred in connection with actions undertaken as provided in this Section 6.1, together with interest thereon at a rate per annum equal to the Interest Rate, from the date of payment by the Secured Party to the date reimbursed by the Grantors, shall be payable by the Grantors to the Secured Party on demand.

(d) Each Grantor hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. All powers, authorizations and agencies contained in this Agreement are coupled with an interest and are irrevocable until this Agreement is terminated and the security interests created hereby are released.

6.2 Duty of Secured Party. The Secured Party’s sole duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of the Collateral in its possession, under Section 9-207 of the UCC or otherwise, shall be to deal with it in the same manner as the Secured Party deals with similar property for its own account. Neither the Secured Party nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of any Grantor or any other Person or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof. The powers conferred on the Secured Party hereunder are solely to protect the Secured Party’s interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Secured Party to exercise any such powers. The Secured Party shall be accountable only for amounts that it actually receives as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither it nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to any Grantor for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

12

6.3 No Obligations or Liability to any Grantor. The rights and powers of the Secured Party hereunder are not contingent upon the pursuit by the Secured Party of any right or remedy against any Grantor or against any other Person which may be or become liable in respect of any of the Secured Obligations or against any other collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto. The Secured Party will not be liable for any failure to demand, collect or realize upon all or any part of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so, nor is Secured Party under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of any Grantor or any other Person or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof. No action or inaction on the part of Secured Party hereunder will release any Grantor from any of its obligations hereunder or under the Stock Purchase Agreement, or constitute an assumption of any such obligations on the part of the Secured Party, or cause the Secured Party to become subject to any obligation or liability to any Grantor. The Secured Party has no obligation to perform any of the obligations or duties of any Grantor as holder of Pledged Equity Interests of the Issuers.

6.4 Additional Security. Without notice to or consent of any Grantor and without impairment of the security interest and rights granted pursuant to this Agreement, the Secured Party may accept, from the Issuers or from any other Person or Persons, additional security for the Secured Obligations. Neither the existence of the security created by this Agreement nor the acceptance of any such additional security will prevent the Secured Party from resorting first to either the Collateral or such additional security, in each case without affecting the Secured Party’s rights granted pursuant to this Agreement.

6.5 Release of the Pledge and Security Interest Created Hereby. Upon payment in full and satisfaction of the Secured Obligations, the Secured Party will, promptly upon the written request of the Buyer, return to the Buyer all Collateral held by the Secured Party and execute and deliver to, or as directed in writing by, the Buyer appropriate instruments or UCC termination statements (in due form for recording or filing) sufficient to release the Collateral from the pledge and security interest created hereby.

6.6 Financing Statements. Pursuant to any applicable law, each Grantor authorizes the Secured Party to file or record financing statements and other filing or recording documents or instruments with respect to the Collateral without the signature of such Grantor in such form and in such offices as the Secured Party deems appropriate to perfect the security interests of the Secured Party under this Agreement. Each Grantor hereby ratifies and authorizes the filing by the Secured Party of any financing statement with respect to the Collateral made prior to the date hereof.

SECTION 7. MISCELLANEOUS

7.1 Amendments in Writing. None of the terms or provisions of this Agreement may be waived, amended, supplemented or otherwise modified except in a writing signed by the Grantors and the Secured Party.

7.2 Notices. All notices, requests, demands and other communications to or upon (i) the Secured Party or Buyer hereunder shall be effected in the manner provided for in the Stock Purchase Agreement and (ii) each Grantor other than Buyer shall be effected in the manner provided for in the Stock Purchase Agreement using the contact information for such Grantor set forth on the signature pages hereof.

13

7.3 No Waiver by Course of Conduct; Cumulative Remedies. The Secured Party shall not by any act (except by a written instrument pursuant to Section 7.1), delay, indulgence, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any right or remedy hereunder or to have acquiesced in any Default or Event of Default. No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of the Secured Party, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. A waiver by the Secured Party of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which the Secured Party would otherwise have on any future occasion. The rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative, may be exercised singly or concurrently and are not exclusive of any other rights or remedies provided by law.

7.4 Enforcement Expenses; Indemnification.

(a) Each Grantor agrees to pay or reimburse the Secured Party for all its costs and expenses incurred in collecting the Secured Obligations or otherwise enforcing or preserving any rights under this Agreement, including, without limitation, the fees and disbursements of counsel to the Secured Party.

(b) Each Grantor agrees to pay, and to save the Secured Party harmless from, any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying, any and all stamp, excise, sales or other taxes which may be payable or determined to be payable with respect to any of the Collateral or in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(c) Each Grantor agrees to pay, and to save the Secured Party harmless from, any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever owed to third parties with respect to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of this Agreement.

(d) All amounts owing under this Section 7.4 shall accrue interest until paid in full at the Interest Rate. All such amounts shall constitute Secured Obligations and shall be payable on demand.

(e) The agreements in this Section 7.4 shall survive repayment of the Secured Obligations and all other amounts payable under the Stock Purchase Agreement and hereunder.

7.5 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of the Grantors and shall inure to the benefit of the Secured Party and its successors and assigns; provided that a Grantor may not assign, transfer or delegate any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Secured Party.

7.6 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts, and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument.

7.7 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

7.8 Section Headings. The Section headings used in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and are not to affect the construction hereof or be taken into consideration in the interpretation hereof.

14

7.9 Integration. The Stock Purchase Agreement, this Agreement and the other Ancillary Documents represent the entire agreement of the Grantors and the Secured Party with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by the Grantors or the Secured Party relative to subject matter hereof and thereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or therein.

7.10 GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REGARDLESS OF THE LAWS THAT MIGHT OTHERWISE GOVERN UNDER APPLICABLE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAWS OTHER THAN SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW, PROVIDED THAT IF BY REASON OF MANDATORY PROVISIONS OF LAW. THE PERFECTION OR THE EFFECT OF PERFECTION OR NON-PERFECTION OR THE PRIORITY OF THE SECURITY INTERESTS IN ANY COLLATERAL IS GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION, THE LAW OF SUCH JURISDICTION SHALL GOVERN.

7.11 Submission To Jurisdiction; Waivers. Each Grantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally:

(a) submits for itself and its property to the exclusive jurisdiction of any court of the United States of America or any state court, which in either case is located in the City of New York (each, a “New York Court”) for purposes of enforcing this Agreement or determining any claim arising from or related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In any such action, suit or other proceeding, each of Seller and each Grantor irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to assert by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise any claim that it is not subject to the jurisdiction of any such New York Court, that such action, suit or other proceeding is not subject to the jurisdiction of any such New York Court, that such action, suit or other proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such action, suit or other proceeding is improper; provided, however, that nothing set forth in this sentence shall prohibit either Seller or the Buyer from removing any matter from one New York Court to another New York Court. Each of Seller and each Grantor also agrees that any final and unappealable judgment against a party hereto in connection with any action, suit or other proceeding shall be conclusive and binding on such party and that such award or judgment may be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction, either within or outside of the United States of America. A certified or exemplified copy of such award or judgment shall be conclusive evidence of the fact and amount of such award or judgment. Seller and each Grantor agree that any process or other paper to be served in connection with any action or proceeding under this Agreement shall, if delivered, sent or mailed in accordance with Section 7.2, constitute good, proper and sufficient service thereof.

7.12 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THE TRANSACTION AGREEMENTS IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE EACH SUCH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER TRANSACTION AGREEMENTS, OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER TRANSACTION AGREEMENTS OR THE FORMATION, BREACH, TERMINATION OR VALIDITY OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER TRANSACTION AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY HERETO CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (I) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OR ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH

15

OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER, (II) EACH PARTY HERETO UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER, (III) EACH PARTY HERETO MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY AND (IV) EACH PARTY HERETO HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS OF THIS SECTION 7.12. ANY PARTY HERETO MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS AGREEMENT WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF THE PARTIES TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.
