The Company and Parent, on the one hand, and the Purchasers Representatives, on the other hand, will consult with each other and will mutually agree (the agreement of each party not to be unreasonably withheld) upon the content and timing of any press release or other public statement in respect of the transactions contemplated hereby and the Company, Parent and each Purchaser shall not issue any such press release or make any such public statement prior to such consultation and agreement, except as may be required by applicable Law or the rules or regulations of any exchange on which a party or its Affiliates' securities are listed or quoted; provided, however, that the Company and Parent, on the one hand, and the Purchasers Representatives, on the other hand, will give prior notice to the other party of the content and timing of any such press release or other public statement, and provided, further, that BACI and Evercore shall each be permitted to disclose the Transaction under the "Portfolio Section" of its website in a manner substantially similar to the transactions currently described therein, and shall be permitted to send an announcement of the Transaction to certain of its contacts, provided that in each case the content of such disclosure shall be approved by the Company prior to such disclosure, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. 5.7 Notification.

The Parent shall use reasonable best efforts to obtain, in connection with option grants to such persons, amendments to the existing non-competition agreements (or covenants, in those circumstance where the non-compete is contained in an employment agreement) of each of Hugh Harris, Ernie Smith, Michael Sanchez, Francis Sanchez, Gary Norcross and Roger Leitner to cover not only Fidelity Information Services, Inc., but also Fidelity National Information Services, Inc. and all of its Subsidiaries. 5.13 New York State Title Insurance Subsidiary. (a) In connection with the filing of a Form A with the NYSDI by each of THL and TPG in connection with the Transaction (the "Form A Filing"), the parties hereto acknowledge that on March 1, 2005, all outstanding equity securities of National Title Insurance of New York, Inc., an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company ("National Title"), were transferred, in the form of a dividend, to Parent for no consideration. Parent hereby agrees that within two (2) business days after approval of the Form A Filing by the NYSDI, it will transfer or contribute through the Company all outstanding equity securities of National Title to LSI for no consideration, resulting in National Title becoming an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. (b) Parent hereby agrees that until the earlier to occur of such time as (i) the Form A Filing has been denied, and (ii) the Form A Filing has been approved and National Title has become an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, it will cause National Title (A) not to make any distributions to its shareholders, (B) to operate in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice, (C) not to encumber, pledge or transfer any of the assets or securities of National Title, (D) not to authorize, issue, or commit to issue any equity securities of National Title, or grant any options, warrants or commitments with respect to such equity securities, (E) not to make any loans to or payments on behalf of obligations of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries (other than the Company and its Subsidiaries), and (F) not to enter into any guarantees or other contingent obligations for the benefit of the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries (other than the Company and its Subsidiaries). (c) The parties agree that Chicago Title Insurance Company, LSI Division ("CTI") will continue to conduct all title and escrow business in the states of Connecticut and 39 Massachusetts at all times prior to the date on which the earlier to occur of (i) the Form A Filing is approved by the NYSDI , or (ii) LSI is able to process title and escrow business in such states through local law firms or other properly licensed entities pursuant to written agreements satisfactory to the Company (such period, the "Interim Period"). Following the Interim Period, CTI will no longer conduct such title and escrow business and such business will be moved to LSI. In addition, CTI will continue to conduct all title and escrow business in Nevada and Utah (for each such line of business and each such state, a "State Interim Period") until the earlier to occur of (A) LSI obtaining a license to act as a title insurance agent or escrow agent, as applicable, in such state, or (B) the Form A Filing is approved by the NYSDI, but only to the extent National Title is licensed as a title insurance company or escrow agent, as applicable, in such state. After the State Interim Period has expired for any applicable state, CTI will no longer conduct such title agency or escrow business, as applicable, and such business will be moved to LSI. At any time, and only for such time, while CTI is conducting title agency and escrow business in a particular state, the revenues generated from the conduct of such business shall be retained by CTI. In the event that the Form A Filing is not approved by the NYSDI within six (6) months following Closing, LSI will enter into written "alliance agreements", in forms satisfactory to the Company, with local law firms in Connecticut and Massachusetts, pursuant to which LSI will process the title and escrow business in such states through such local law firms. 5.14 Certain Business in Certain Counties. As of the Closing Date, LSI will not have title plant access in the California Counties (as defined in Schedule 3.10) and in each county in the State of Washington (together with the California Counties, the "Affected Counties"). As a result thereof, CTI will continue to conduct business (other than escrow) in the California Counties and all business in the other Affected Counties until such time as Parent has acquired or built title plants in each Affected County. Upon acquisition or completion of a title plant in an Affected County by Parent or its subsidiaries, LSI will obtain access to such title plant and the related business of CTI shall be moved to LSI on terms no less favorable to LSI than the terms set forth in title plant access agreements entered into as of the date hereof by and between Parent and the Company. In connection with this arrangement, Parent and the Company will enter into a license agreement, pursuant to which the Company shall provide to Parent and its subsidiaries certain technology, products and services that will assist and enable CTI to conduct the applicable businesses in the Affected Counties (the "License Agreement"). The License Agreement shall be deemed an Intercompany Agreement in accordance with Section 5.3. The combined impact on the Financial Statements of (a) the continued conduct of the above described business by CTI, and (b) the License Agreement is set forth on Schedule 3.10.

Parent shall, unless prohibited by applicable Law, cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to close the taxable period of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the close of business on the Closing Date. If applicable Law does not permit the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to close its taxable year on the Closing Date, the amount of such Taxes allocable to the portion of such period ending on the Closing Date shall (i) in the case of any Taxes based upon or related to income or gross receipts, be deemed equal to the amount which would be payable if the relevant taxable period ended on the Closing Date, and (ii) in the case of any Taxes other than Taxes based upon or related to income or gross receipts, be deemed to be the amount of such Taxes for the entire period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the portion of the period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire period. Any allocation of income or deductions required to determine any Taxes relating to a such period shall be taken into account as though the relevant taxable period ended on the Closing Date and by means of a closing of the books and records of the Company or its Subsidiary, as applicable, as of the close of the Closing Date; provided that exemptions, allowances or deductions that are calculated on an annual basis (including, but not limited to, depreciation and amortization deductions) shall be allocated between the period ending on the Closing Date and the period after the Closing Date in proportion to the number of days in each such period.

(b) Purchasers shall severally, but not jointly, indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Company, the Parent and their Affiliates from and against any and all Indemnifiable Losses to the extent relating to, resulting from, or arising out of: (i) any breach of representation or warranty of such Purchaser under this Agreement or any certificate delivered in connection herewith; and (ii) any breach or nonfulfillment of any agreement or covenant of such Purchaser under this Agreement. (c) For purposes of determining whether a breach of a representation and warranty has occurred and for purposes of determining the amount of any Indemnifiable Loss for all purposes under this Article VIII, each representation and warranty contained in this Agreement (other than the representation in Section 3.12(ii)) shall be read without regard to any materiality or Material Adverse Effect qualifier contained therein. 8.3 Deductible; Maximum Liability. Neither Parent nor the Purchasers shall be obligated to indemnify and hold harmless their respective Indemnitees under Section 8.2(a)(i) or Section 8.2(b)(i) unless and until the aggregate amount of all Indemnifiable Losses by the Indemnitees under such Section 8.2(a)(i) or Section 8.2(b)(i), as the case may be, exceeds $30.0 million for all Indemnifiable Losses (the "Deductible"), at which point Parent or the Purchasers, as the case may be, shall be liable to their respective Indemnitees for the value of the Indemnitee's claims under Section 8.2(a)(i) or Section 8.2(b)(i), as the case may be, that is in excess of the Deductible, subject to the limitations set forth in this Article VIII . The maximum aggregate liability of each of Parent and the Purchasers (allocated pro rata on the basis of the number of Shares purchased in the case of the Purchasers), as the case may be, to their respective Indemnitees for any and all Indemnifiable Losses pursuant to this Article VIII shall be $250.0 million (the "Cap"). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, neither the Deductible nor the Cap shall apply with respect to Indemnifiable Losses to the extent relating to, resulting from, or arising out of (x) any breach or nonfulfillment of any agreement or any covenant contained in this Agreement, (y) any breach of representation or warranty contained in any of Sections 3.2, 3.5, 3.6, 3.7, 3.8, 3.21, the third sentence of 3.22(i), 4.2, 4.5 and 4.6, or any Indemnifiable Loss under Section 8.2(a)(iii); provided, however, that Parent shall not be obligated to indemnify and hold harmless any Indemnitee hereunder for a breach of Section 3.21 or for any Indemnifiable Loss relating to, resulting from, or arising out of clause (A) of 48 Section 8.2(a)(iii), unless and until the aggregate amount of all such Indemnifiable Losses under such Section 3.21 and Section 8.2(a)(iii) exceeds $250,000 and then only to the extent of the Purchase Price, or (z) any Indemnifiable Losses relating to, resulting from or arising out of ERISA matters set forth in Section 8.2(a)(iv). 8.4 Definitions. As used in this Agreement: (i) "Indemnitee" means any person entitled to indemnification under this Agreement; (ii) "Indemnitor" means any person required to provide indemnification under this Agreement; (iii) "Indemnifiable Losses" means any and all damages, losses, liabilities, obligations, costs, and expenses, and any and all claims, demands, actions, suits, proceedings, or investigations or appeals by any Person, including the costs and expenses of any and all assessments, judgments, settlements, and compromises relating thereto but not including attorneys' fees and expenses in respect thereof and in respect of establishing the right to indemnification hereunder; provided, however that any Indemnity Payment (x) made to the Purchasers shall be prorated to reflect only the Purchasers' then percentage ownership interest in the Company, and, shall in no event include any special or punitive damages (unless in connection with a Third Party Claim), and (y) shall be net of any (A) amounts actually recovered (after deducting related costs and expenses) or recoverable by the Indemnitee for the Indemnifiable Losses for which such Indemnity Payment is made under any insurance policy, warranty or indemnity from any Person other than a party hereto, and (B) Tax benefits actually realized by the Indemnitee in respect of any Indemnifiable Losses for which such Indemnity Payment is made. (iv) "Indemnity Payment" means any amount of Indemnifiable Losses required to be paid pursuant to this Agreement; and (v) "Third-Party Claim" means any claim, action, suit, or proceeding made or brought by any person that is not a party to this Agreement or an Affiliate of a party to this Agreement. 8.5 Procedures for Third-Party Claims. (a) If any Indemnitee receives notice of assertion or commencement of any Third-Party Claim against such Indemnitee in respect of which an Indemnitor may be obligated to provide indemnification under this Agreement, the Indemnitee shall give such Indemnitor reasonably prompt written notice (but in no event later than 30 days after becoming aware) thereof; provided, however, that no delay on the part of the Indemnitee in notifying any Indemnitor shall relieve the Indemnitor from any obligation hereunder unless (and then solely to the extent) the Indemnitor is actually prejudiced by such delay. (b) Any Indemnitor will have the right to defend the Indemnitee against the Third-Party Claim with counsel of its choice reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee 49 so long as (i) the Indemnitor notifies the Indemnitee in writing within thirty (30) days after the Indemnitee has given notice of the Third-Party Claim that the Indemnitor will indemnify the Indemnitee from and against any such Indemnifiable Losses, (ii) the Indemnitor provides the Indemnitee with evidence reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee that the Indemnitor will have the financial resources to defend against the Third-Party Claim and, (iii) the Indemnitor conducts the defense of the Third-Party Claim actively and diligently; provided, that, in the event settlement of, or an adverse judgment in respect of, a Third-Party Claim, is likely, in the good faith judgment of a Purchaser who is an Indemnitee hereunder, to adversely affect the reputation or business of such Purchaser or its Affiliates, such Purchaser shall have the right to defend, at its expense, against such Third-Party Claim with the counsel of its choice. The Purchasers may also participate in defense of any other Third-Party Claim at their expense. (c) So long as the Indemnitor is conducting the defense of the Third-Party Claim in accordance with Section 8.5(b), (i) the Indemnitee may retain separate co-counsel at its sole cost and expense and participate in the defense of the Third-Party Claim, (ii) the Indemnitee will not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any compromise or settlement in respect of the Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnitor (which consent will not be unreasonably conditioned, delayed, or withheld), and (iii) the Indemnitor will not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any compromise or settlement in respect of the Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee (which consent will not be unreasonably conditioned, delayed, or withheld); provided, however, that, in respect of clause (iii) above, the Indemnitee may condition such consent upon the delivery by the claimant or plaintiff to the Indemnitee of a duly executed unconditional release of the Indemnitee from all liability in respect of such Third-Party Claim. (d) In the event any condition set forth in Section 8.5(b) is or becomes unsatisfied, however, (i) the Indemnitee may defend against, and consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement in respect of, the Third-Party Claim in any manner it reasonably may deem appropriate, provided that the Indemnitee will consult with and obtain the consent of the Indemnitor in connection therewith which shall not be unreasonably conditioned, delayed, or withheld, (ii) the Indemnitor will reimburse the Indemnitee promptly and periodically for the costs of defending against the Third-Party Claim (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses), and (iii) the Indemnitor will remain responsible for any Indemnifiable Losses the Indemnitee may suffer resulting from, arising out of, relating to, in the nature of, or caused by, the Third-Party Claim to the fullest extent provided in this Section 8.5. 8.6 Direct Claims. The Indemnitor will have a period of thirty (30) days within which to respond in writing to any claim by an Indemnitee on account of an Indemnifiable Loss that does not result from a Third-Party Claim (a "Direct Claim"). If the Indemnitor does not so respond within such 30 day period, the Indemnitor will be deemed to have rejected such claim, in which event the Indemnitee will be entitled to pursue such remedies as may be available to the 50 Indemnitee. In any case where the Purchasers are the Indemnitees, the Purchasers may bring the claim on behalf of the Purchasers or the Company, in their sole discretion. 8.7 Sole Remedy. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that, if the Closing occurs, their sole and exclusive remedy following the Closing with respect to any and all claims arising out of or related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be pursuant to the provisions set forth in this Article VIII; provided, however that nothing contained herein shall prevent an Indemnitee from bringing a claim based on fraud. 8.8 Certain Other Matters. Upon making any Indemnity Payment, Indemnitor will, to the extent of such Indemnity Payment, be subrogated to all rights of Indemnitee against any third person (other than an insurance company) in respect of the Indemnifiable Loss to which the Indemnity Payment related; provided, however, that (i) Indemnitor shall then be in compliance with its obligations under this Agreement in respect of such Indemnifiable Loss and (ii) until Indemnitee fully recovers its Indemnity Payment, any and all claims of the Indemnitor against any such third person on account of such Indemnity Payment will be subrogated and subordinated in right of payment to Indemnitee's rights against such third person. Without limiting the generality or effect of any other provision hereof, each such Indemnitee and Indemnitor will duly execute upon request all instruments reasonably necessary to evidence and perfect the above-described subrogation and subordination rights. Any Indemnity Payment hereunder shall be treated as an adjustment to the applicable purchase price. ARTICLE IX Termination 9.1 Termination. This Agreement may be terminated and the transactions contemplated hereby abandoned at any time prior to the Closing: (a) by the written agreement of Purchasers Representatives, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand; (b) by Purchasers Representatives or the Company if there shall have been entered a final, non-appealable order or injunction by any Governmental Entity prohibiting or restraining the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or any material part hereof; (c) by Parent, on the one hand, and the Purchasers Representatives, on the other hand, if a Purchaser (with respect to the Parent's termination right) or the Parent or the Company (with respect to the Purchasers Representatives right) shall have breached or failed to perform in any material respect any of its representations, warranties, covenants or other agreements contained in this Agreement, which breach or failure to perform (A) would give rise to the failure of a condition to the terminating party's obligations as set forth in Article VI, and (B) such breach or failure to perform is incapable of being or has not been cured by the breaching party within 20 calendar days after giving written notice to the breaching party of such breach or failure to perform; provided, however that with respect to any breach of the No MAE Reps, the Parent shall have the right for 10 business 51 days following the receipt of notice from the Purchasers Representatives of their intent to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this section, to attempt to cure such breach prior to the Purchasers being deemed to have any right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this section; (d) by Parent and the Company if any Restraint having any of the effects set forth in Section 5.5 shall be in effect and shall have become final and nonappealable (provided that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 9.1(d) shall not be available to any party who has materially breached any representation or warranty or failed to fulfill any obligation under this Agreement); (e) [Intentionally omitted]; (f) by Purchasers Representatives or Parent on or after May 31, 2005, if the Closing has not occurred prior to such date; provided that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 9.1(f) shall not be available to any party who has materially breached any representation or warranty or failed to fulfill any obligation under this Agreement. The party desiring to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1(b), 9.1(c), 9.1(d) or 9.1(f) shall promptly give written notice of such termination to the other party. 9.2 Effect of Termination. Except for Section 5.6, 5.9 and this Section 9.2 and Article X which shall survive any termination of this Agreement, upon the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1, this Agreement shall become null and void and of no further force and effect and all obligations of the parties hereto shall terminate and there shall be no liability or obligation of any party hereto; provided, however, that nothing herein shall relieve any party hereto from liability for its default under or breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, or agreement under this Agreement prior to such termination. ARTICLE X Miscellaneous 10.1 Amendments. This Agreement may be amended, modified, or supplemented only pursuant to a written instrument making specific reference to this Agreement and signed by each of THL, TPG, Parent and Company; provided, however, that no such modification or amendment which adversely affects either Evercore or BACI disproportionately to any other Purchaser shall be permitted without the written consent of Evercore or BACI, as applicable. 10.2 Assignment. This Agreement and the rights and obligations hereunder shall not be assigned, delegated, or otherwise transferred (whether by operation of law (other than a merger), by contract, or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the Purchasers Representatives hereto; provided, however, that any Purchaser may, without obtaining the prior written consent of any other party, assign, delegate, or otherwise transfer its rights and obligations hereunder to any Affiliate of such Purchaser so long as (i) such Affiliate joins as a Purchaser party hereto, and (ii) such assignment, delegation or other transfer does not affect the accuracy of the representations 52 and warranties provided in Section 4.6. Any attempted assignment, delegation, or transfer in violation of this Section 10.2 shall be void and of no force or effect. 10.3 Binding Effect. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. In addition, all decisions, elections or other actions expressly provided to the Purchasers Representatives under this Agreement, when made, shall be binding on all other Purchasers to the same extent such decisions, elections or other actions are binding on THL and TPG. 10.4 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument. 10.5 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the Schedules attached hereto) and the Transaction Documents constitute the entire agreement of the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter hereof and thereof, and supersede all prior agreements or understandings, among the parties hereto, including the Initial Agreement, in respect of the subject matter hereof and thereof. Except for the representations and warranties expressly set forth in this Agreement, neither the Company, Parent, any Purchaser nor any other Person has made and does not hereby make any express or implied representations or warranties of any nature. 10.6 Fees and Expenses. (a) The Company shall pay, out of the proceeds of the Purchase Price, all actual, reasonable and out-of-pocket expenses incurred by or on behalf of the Purchasers (including, without limitation, legal, accounting and investment banking fees and expenses) in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery, and performance of this Agreement and each Transaction Document, including legal and financial diligence relating thereto but in no event in an amount in excess of $45 million (inclusive of all amounts paid at Closing under Section 2(a) of the Management Agreements). (b) The Company shall pay, out of the proceeds of the Purchase Price and the Transaction, all actual, reasonable and out-of-pocket expenses incurred by or on behalf of the Company and the Parent (including, without limitation, legal, accounting and investment banking fees and expenses) in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery, and performance of this Agreement and each Transaction Document and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby but in no event in an amount in excess of $10 million.

This Agreement shall be enforced, governed, and construed in all respects in accordance with the laws of the State of New York applicable to contracts executed and performable solely in such state. 10.8 Headings. The article and section headings of this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not be deemed to alter or affect the meaning or interpretation of any provision hereof. 10.9 Jurisdiction. The parties hereto agree that any action, suit, or proceeding seeking to enforce any provision of, or based on any matter arising out of or relating to, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby can only be brought in federal court sitting in the Southern District of New York or, if such court does not have jurisdiction, any state court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, New York County, New York, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to the jurisdiction of such courts (and of the appropriate appellate courts therefrom) in any such action, suit, or proceeding and irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such action, suit, or proceeding in any such court or that any such action, suit, or proceeding that is brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. 10.10 Notices. Any notice, demand, request, instruction, correspondence, or other document required or permitted to be given hereunder by any party to the other shall be in writing and delivered (i) in person, (ii) by a nationally recognized overnight courier service requiring acknowledgment of receipt of delivery, (iii) by United States certified mail, postage prepaid and return receipt requested, or (iv) by facsimile, as follows: If to the Company, to: Fidelity National Information Services, Inc. 601 Riverside Avenue Jacksonville, FL 32204 Attention: Gregory S.

Any person entitled to notice may change any address or facsimile number to which notice is to be given to it by giving notice of such change of address or facsimile number as provided in this Section 10.10. The 55 inability to deliver notice because of changed address or facsimile number of which no notice was given shall be deemed to be receipt of the notice as of the date such attempt was first made. 10.11 No Recourse. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, each party hereto agrees that absent fraud, willful misconduct or intentional misrepresentation, neither it nor any person acting on its behalf may assert any claim or cause of action against any officer, director, stockholder, controlling person, manager, member, partner, employer, agent, representative, or Affiliate of any other party nor their respective officers, directors, stockholders, controlling persons, managers, members, partners, employees, agents, or representatives in connection with, arising out of, or relating to this Agreement, the Transaction Documents, or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, in each case, except to the extent any such Person is a party to such Transaction Document. 10.12 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the application of such provision to any person or circumstance shall be held (by a court of competent jurisdiction) to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable under the applicable Law of any jurisdiction, (i) the remainder of this Agreement or the application of such provision to other persons or circumstances or in other jurisdictions shall not be affected thereby, and (ii) such invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provision shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement. 10.13 Specific Performance. The Parties hereby acknowledge and agree that if any party fails to perform (i) under this Agreement prior to Closing or (ii) under any covenants contained in Sections 5.5 and 5.13 following the Closing, monetary damages alone may not be adequate to compensate the other parties for their injuries. Each party shall, therefore, in addition to any other remedy that may be available to them, be entitled to seek to obtain specific performance of (i) this Agreement for failure to perform under this Agreement prior to Closing and (ii) the covenants contained in Sections 5.5 and 5.13 following the Closing. If any action, suit, or proceeding is instituted by a party to enforce this Agreement, the other parties hereby waive the defense that there is an adequate remedy at law. In the event of a Default by a party that results in the filing of an action for damages, specific performance, or other remedies, the winning party shall be entitled to reimbursement by the defaulting party of all reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses incurred by it. 10.14 Third-Party Beneficiaries. Except as expressly provided in Article VIII, nothing express or implied in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to confer upon or give any Person other than the parties hereto and their respective permitted assigns any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. 10.15 Waiver. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the rights and remedies provided for herein are cumulative and not exclusive of any right or remedy that may be available to any party whether at law, in equity, or otherwise. No delay, forbearance, or neglect by any party, whether in one or more instances, in the exercise of any right, power, privilege, or remedy hereunder or in the enforcement of any term or condition of this Agreement shall constitute or be construed as a waiver thereof. No waiver of any provision hereof, or consent required hereunder, or any consent or departure from this Agreement, shall be valid or binding unless expressly and affirmatively made in writing and duly executed by the party to be charged with such waiver. No 56 waiver shall constitute or be construed as a continuing waiver or a waiver in respect of any subsequent breach or Default, either of equivalent or different nature, unless expressly so stated in such writing. 10.16 Purchaser Obligations. All obligations of the Purchasers contained herein shall be several, not joint.
