AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF REORGANIZATION

THIS AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF REORGANIZATION (this “Agreement”) is dated as of May 7, 2013 (the “Effective Date”), between IGNYTA, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Ignyta”), and ACTAGENE ONCOLOGY, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Actagene”). Each of Actagene and Ignyta is a “Party” and together, the “Parties.”

RECITALS:

WHEREAS, the respective Boards of Directors of Actagene and Ignyta have (i) approved and declared advisable this Agreement, including the merger of Actagene with and into Ignyta (the “Merger”), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein and (ii) directed that this Agreement be submitted to stockholders of Actagene and Ignyta, respectively, for approval and adoption constituting the Required Actagene Stockholder Approval and the Required Ignyta Stockholder Approval, as applicable.

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Merger, among other things, the shares of Actagene common stock, $0.0001 par value (“Actagene Common Stock”), outstanding as of the Effective Time of the Merger shall be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration (as defined below) upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein.

WHEREAS, for federal income tax purposes, Actagene and Ignyta intend that the Merger qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and that this Agreement shall be, and hereby is, adopted as a plan of reorganization for purposes of Section 368(a) of the Code.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the respective representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

ARTICLE II

THE MERGER

Section 2.1 The Merger. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions hereof, and in accordance with the DGCL, Actagene shall be merged with and into Ignyta at the Effective Time. As a result of the Merger, the separate corporate existence of Actagene shall cease and Ignyta shall continue as the surviving corporation of the Merger (sometimes referred to herein, following the Merger, as the “Surviving Corporation”) and shall continue its corporate existence under the DGCL.

Section 2.2 Closing; Effective Time. The closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Closing”) and all actions specified in this Agreement to occur at the Closing shall take place at the offices of Morrison & Foerster LLP, 12531 High Bluff Drive, San Diego, California, or at such other location as the Parties hereto agree, at 10:00 a.m., local time, on the first business day following the day on which the last of the conditions set forth in Article VI shall have been fulfilled or waived (other than those conditions that by their nature are satisfied at Closing, but subject to the waiver of fulfillment of those conditions) or at such other time and place as Actagene and Ignyta shall agree (the “Closing Date”). On the Closing Date and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Parties hereto shall cause the Merger to be consummated by filing a Certificate of Merger, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Certificate of Merger”), executed in accordance with the relevant provisions of the DGCL, with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. The Merger shall become effective at such time as a properly executed copy of the Certificate of Merger is duly filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware (such time being referred to as the “Effective Time”).

Section 2.3 Effects of the Merger. At the Effective Time, the effect of the Merger shall be as provided in this Agreement, the Certificate of Merger and the applicable provisions of the DGCL. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and subject thereto, at the Effective Time, all properties, rights, immunities, privileges, powers and franchises of Actagene shall vest in the Surviving Corporation, and all debts, liabilities and duties of Actagene shall become the debts, liabilities and duties of the Surviving Corporation.

Section 2.4 Certificate of Incorporation; Bylaws.

(a) At and following the Effective Time, the Restated Ignyta Certificate attached to the Certificate of Merger filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware shall be the Certificate of Incorporation of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter duly amended.

(b) At and following the Effective Time, the bylaws of Ignyta, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be the bylaws of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter duly amended.

Section 2.5 Directors and Officers.

(a) The sole director of Ignyta immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the sole director of the Surviving Corporation, until the earlier of his resignation or removal or until his successor is duly elected and qualified, as the case may be.

(b) The officers of Ignyta immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the officers of the Surviving Corporation, until the earlier of their resignation or removal or until their respective successors are duly appointed and qualified, as the case may be; provided, however, that Patrick O’Connor shall be appointed as the Chief Scientific Officer and SVP Head of Research of the Surviving Corporation as of the Effective Time.

Section 2.6 Effect on Capital Stock; Merger Consideration. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Actagene or the stockholders of Actagene, each share of Actagene Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted and exchanged, without any action on the part of the holders thereof, into the right to receive a portion of the merger consideration (the “Merger Consideration”) as follows:

(a) Actagene Common Stock. Each share of Actagene Common Stock outstanding at the Effective Time (other than fractional shares to be cancelled in accordance with Section 2.6(c) and other than Dissenting Actagene Shares, as hereinafter defined) will be cancelled and exchanged into an amount of shares of Ignyta Common Stock equal to the Exchange Ratio. The “Exchange Ratio” shall be determined by dividing (i) 4,750,000 (the number of shares of Ignyta Common Stock to be issued to Actagene stockholders in the Merger) by (ii) the number of shares of Actagene Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. Upon conversion, the former holders of the Actagene Common Stock will have the rights, preferences and privileges attached to the Ignyta Common Stock in place of the rights, preferences and privileges of the Actagene Common Stock. These rights will be the same rights held by the holders (as constituted prior to the Effective Time) of Ignyta Common Stock as set forth in the Restated Ignyta Certificate and existing Bylaws of Ignyta. Upon surrender of the Certificates in accordance with Section 2.7 hereof, the Merger Consideration shall be issued to the approving holders of Actagene Common Stock in accordance with this Section 2.6.

(b) Assumption of Restricted Stock Purchase Agreements. Each share of Ignyta Common Stock issued to a holder of Actagene Common Stock at the Effective Time will have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions set forth in the applicable Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement for such holder immediately prior to the Effective Time (including, without limitation, any repurchase rights or vesting provisions and after the waiver of any acceleration of vesting or other benefit upon a change of control that may (absent such waiver) be triggered by this Agreement or the consummation of the Merger such that, following the Merger, the shares of Ignyta Common Stock that are issued to holders of Actagene Common Stock shall be subject to the same vesting conditions and other restrictions that were in effect for any such holder with respect to such holder’s ownership of Actagene Common Stock immediately prior to the Merger). Prior to the Effective Time, Actagene shall cause the amendment of the Restricted Stock Purchase Agreements to provide for their assumption by Ignyta at the Effective Time as set forth in this Section 2.6(b) pursuant to the Stockholder Agreements.

(c) Cancellation of Treasury Stock and Ignyta-Owned Stock. Each share of Actagene Common Stock held in the treasury of Actagene, if any, and any shares of Actagene Common Stock owned by Ignyta immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be cancelled and extinguished without any conversion thereof and no payment shall be made with respect thereto.

(d) No Fractional Shares. In lieu of fractional shares that would otherwise be issued under this Agreement, holders of shares of Actagene Common Stock that would have been entitled to receive a fractional share shall receive such whole number of shares of Ignyta Common Stock as is equal to the precise number of shares of Ignyta Common Stock to which such Person would be entitled, rounded down to the nearest whole number.

Section 2.7 Surrender of Certificates.

(a) Exchange Procedures. At and following the Closing, the holders of Actagene Common Stock shall have the right to surrender their Actagene Common Stock to Ignyta in return for the Merger Consideration to which they are entitled as a result of the Merger. Ignyta will deliver certificates of Ignyta Common Stock to the holders of Actagene Common Stock who surrender their Actagene Common Stock certificates (the “Certificates”) at or promptly following the Closing. For those Actagene stockholders that do not surrender their Certificates at Closing, promptly after the Effective Time, Ignyta shall cause to be mailed to each holder of record of a Certificate or Certificates whose shares were converted into the right to receive a portion of the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.6, (i) a letter of transmittal (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon receipt of the Certificates by Ignyta, and shall be in such form and have such other provisions as Ignyta may reasonably specify); (ii) such other customary documents as may be reasonably required pursuant to such instructions; and (iii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates in exchange for a portion of the Merger Consideration. Upon surrender of a Certificate for cancellation to Ignyta, together with such letter of transmittal and other documents, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, the holder of such Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor such holder’s applicable portion of the Merger Consideration, and the Certificate so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled. Until so surrendered, each outstanding Certificate that prior to the Effective Time represented shares of Actagene Common Stock will be deemed from and after the Effective Time, for all corporate purposes, to evidence the right to receive a portion of the Merger Consideration into which the Actagene Common Stock evidenced by such Certificate has been converted.

(b) Transfers of Ownership. The Merger Consideration delivered upon the surrender for exchange of Actagene Common Stock in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to have been delivered in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such Actagene Common Stock. At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of Actagene shall be closed, and there shall thereafter be no further registration of transfers of Actagene Common Stock on the records of Actagene. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates are presented to the Surviving Corporation for any reason, they shall be cancelled in exchange for the right to receive the Merger Consideration as provided in this Article II.

(c) Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. In the event any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, Ignyta shall pay to the record holder of such Certificate the Merger Consideration into which the shares of Actagene Common Stock formerly represented by such Certificate have been converted pursuant to Section 2.6, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by such record holder; provided, however, that Ignyta may, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the payment of such consideration, require such record holder to deliver a bond in such sums as Ignyta may reasonably direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against Ignyta with respect to such Certificate.

Section 2.8 Dissenting Shares.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, shares of Actagene capital stock that are outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time held by a Person who shall not have voted to adopt this Agreement and who properly exercises and perfects appraisal rights for

such shares in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL or Section 1300(b) of the CGCL, as applicable (“Dissenting Actagene Shares”), at or after the Effective Time shall not be converted into or represent the right to receive the Merger Consideration in accordance with Section 2.6 unless and until such holder of Dissenting Actagene Shares fails to perfect or withdraws or otherwise loses his rights to appraisal and payment under the DGCL or CGCL, as applicable, but shall be entitled only to such rights as are granted by the CGCL or the DGCL, as the case may be, to Dissenting Actagene Shares. If, after the Effective Time, any such holder fails to perfect or withdraws or loses his right to appraisal, such Dissenting Actagene Shares shall thereupon be treated as if they had been converted as of the Effective Time into the right to receive the portion of the Merger Consideration in accordance with Section 2.6 without interest. Non-dissenting stockholders shall not be entitled to any portion of the Merger Consideration otherwise payable with respect to any Dissenting Actagene Shares.

(b) Actagene shall give Ignyta (i) reasonably prompt notice of any written demand received by Actagene prior to the Effective Time for appraisal of any shares of Actagene capital stock pursuant to the DGCL or CGCL, as applicable, any withdrawal of any such demand and any other demand, notice or instrument delivered to Actagene prior to the Effective Time pursuant to the DGCL or CGCL, as applicable, and (ii) the opportunity to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to any such demand, notice or instrument. Actagene shall not make any payment or settlement offer prior to the Effective Time with respect to any such demand, notice or instrument unless Ignyta shall have consented in writing to such payment or settlement offer (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld).

(c) Ignyta shall give Actagene (i) reasonably prompt notice of any written demand received by Ignyta prior to the Effective Time for appraisal of any shares of Ignyta capital stock pursuant to the DGCL or CGCL, as applicable, any withdrawal of any such demand and any other demand, notice or instrument delivered to Ignyta prior to the Effective Time pursuant to the DGCL or CGCL, as applicable, and (ii) the opportunity to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to any such demand, notice or instrument. Ignyta shall not make any payment or settlement offer prior to the Effective Time with respect to any such demand, notice or instrument unless Actagene shall have consented in writing to such payment or settlement offer (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld).

Section 2.9 Further Assurances. If at any time after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall consider or be advised that any deeds, bills of sale, assignments or assurances or any other acts or things are necessary, desirable or proper (a) to vest, perfect or confirm, of record or otherwise, in the Surviving Corporation its right, title or interest in, to or under any of the rights, privileges, powers, franchises, properties or assets of either of the Merging Corporations, or (b) to otherwise carry out the purposes of this Agreement, Actagene or the Surviving Corporation, as applicable, and their respective proper officers and directors or their designees shall be authorized to execute and deliver, in the name and on behalf of either of the Merging Corporations, all such deeds, bills of sale, assignments and assurances and to do, in the name and on behalf of either Merging Corporation or any such stockholder, all such other acts and things as may be necessary, desirable or proper to vest, perfect or confirm the Surviving Corporation’s right, title or interest in, to or under any of the rights, privileges, powers, franchises, properties or assets of such Merging Corporation and otherwise to carry out the purposes of this Agreement.

ARTICLE III

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF ACTAGENE

Actagene represents and warrants to Ignyta that the statements contained in this Article III are current and complete, except as set forth in the Actagene Schedule of Exceptions, which Actagene Schedule of Exceptions shall specifically identify the section of this Agreement for which each exception is taken. Any matter disclosed in any section of the Actagene Schedule of Exceptions shall be considered disclosed for other sections of the Actagene Schedule of Exceptions, but only to the extent such matter on its face would reasonably be expected to be pertinent to a particular section of the Actagene Schedule of Exceptions in light of the disclosure made in such section.

Section 3.1 Organization, Power and Standing. Actagene is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of the State of Delaware and has the requisite corporate power and authority to carry on its business as now being conducted. Section 3.1 of the Actagene Schedule of Exceptions sets forth all jurisdictions in which Actagene is qualified to do business as a foreign corporation. Actagene is duly qualified to do business, and is in good standing, in each jurisdiction where the character of its properties owned or held under lease or the nature of its activities makes such qualification necessary.

Section 3.2 Capital Structure of Actagene. The authorized capital stock of Actagene consists of Seven Million (7,000,000) shares of Actagene Common Stock, of which Five Million Seven Hundred Thousand (5,700,000) are issued and outstanding. There are not outstanding any options, warrants, rights (including conversion or preemptive rights) or agreements for the purchase or acquisition from Actagene of any shares of its capital stock.

Section 3.3 Valid Issuance; Merger. The outstanding shares of Actagene Common Stock are all duly and validly authorized and issued, fully paid and nonassessable, and were issued in compliance with all applicable state and federal Laws concerning the issuance of securities.

Section 3.4 Subsidiaries. Actagene does not, and has never, owned or controlled, directly or indirectly, any interest in any other corporation, association, or other business entity. Actagene is not a participant in any joint venture, partnership, or similar arrangement.

Section 3.5 Authority. Except as set forth in Section 3.5 of the Actagene Schedule of Exceptions, Actagene has all requisite corporate power and authority to (i) enter into this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) own and operate its properties and assets and (iii) carry on its business as presently conducted and as presently proposed to be conducted. The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby have been, or will have been by the Closing, duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of Actagene. The Board of Directors of Actagene has approved this Agreement, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by Actagene and constitutes the valid and binding obligation of Actagene enforceable against Actagene in accordance with its terms, except as may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar Laws affecting or relating to creditors’ rights generally, and is subject to general principles of equity. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by Actagene does not, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will not, individually or in the aggregate, (x) conflict with, or result in any violation of, or default under (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both), or give rise to a right of termination, cancellation or acceleration of any material obligation or loss of any material benefit under (a) any provision of the Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws of Actagene, as amended; or (b) any mortgage, indenture, lease, contract or other agreement or instrument, permit,

concession, franchise, license or Law applicable to Actagene or any of its properties or assets, in the case of clause (b), except for such conflicts, violations, defaults, rights of termination, cancellation or acceleration as could not individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on Actagene or (y) give rise to any employee severance or similar benefits or trigger the acceleration of any equity awards (or constitute the initial “trigger” in any “double” trigger equity awards or severance obligations).

Section 3.6 Governmental Consents. No consent, approval, order or authorization of, or registration, declaration or filing with, any Governmental Body is required by or with respect to Actagene in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, except for (a) the filing of the Certificate of Merger as provided in Section 2.2; and (b) such consents, approvals, orders, authorizations, registrations, declarations and filings as may be required under applicable state securities Laws and the securities Laws of any foreign country.

Section 3.7 Litigation. There is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation pending, or to Actagene’s Knowledge, currently threatened against Actagene. The foregoing includes, without limitation, actions pending or, to Actagene’s Knowledge, threatened against Actagene, involving the prior employment of any of Actagene’s employees, their use in connection with Actagene’s business of any information or techniques allegedly proprietary to any of their former employers, or their obligations under any agreements with prior employers. Actagene is not a party or subject to the provisions of any order, writ, injunction, judgment or decree of any court or government agency or instrumentality that would reasonably be expected to result in any loss, expense, charge, assessment, levy, fine or other liability being imposed upon or incurred by Actagene that would have a Material Adverse Effect on Actagene. There is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation by Actagene currently pending or that Actagene intends to initiate.

Section 3.8 Proprietary Information Agreements. Each employee of Actagene has executed Actagene’s standard form of Employee Proprietary Information and Inventions Agreement. Each consultant of Actagene has executed Actagene’s standard form of Consulting Agreement, in the form previously provided to Ignyta’s legal counsel for this transaction. Actagene is not aware that any such employee or consultant is in violation thereof.

Section 3.9 Patents and Trademarks. Actagene has full title and ownership of, or has been granted valid rights to use, all Technology and other materials used in its business, as now conducted, and the lack of which (or the lack of authorization, license, right, title or ownership thereof) would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on Actagene. To its Knowledge, (but without having conducted any special investigation or patent search), the conduct of Actagene’s business as currently conducted, including the use or exploitation of any Technology and any Intellectual Property Rights associated therewith, does not conflict with, infringe or misappropriate any valid Intellectual Property Rights of others and Actagene has not received any written notice from any Person alleging any such conflict, infringement or misappropriation with or of the Intellectual Property Rights of others. Except as set forth in Section 3.9 of the Actagene Schedule of Exceptions, Actagene is not bound by or a party to any options, licenses or similar agreements with respect to Intellectual Property Rights owned by Actagene or of any other Person or entity other than such licenses or agreements arising from the purchase or license of “off the shelf” or standard products in the ordinary course of business. Actagene currently has no issued patents. To its Knowledge, Actagene owns or has the right to use the Intellectual Property Rights that Actagene is using in connection with the current conduct of its business, free and clear of any rights, liens, encumbrances or claims of others. To Actagene’s Knowledge, no third party is infringing or misappropriating any Intellectual Property Rights of Actagene. Actagene is not aware that any of its employees is obligated under any contract (including licenses, covenants or commitments of any nature) or other agreement, or subject to any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative

agency, that would materially interfere with their duties to Actagene or that would materially conflict with Actagene’s business. Actagene does not believe it is or will be necessary to utilize any inventions of any of its employees (or people it currently intends to hire) made prior to their employment by Actagene, except for inventions that have been assigned or licensed to Actagene as of the date hereof.

Section 3.10 Compliance with Other Instruments. Except as set forth in Section 3.10 of the Actagene Schedule of Exceptions, Actagene is not in violation of any provision of its Certificate of Incorporation or its Bylaws nor, to its Knowledge, of any instrument, Law or contract (oral or written) to which Actagene is subject. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, the Merger and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby will not result in any such violation, or be in conflict with or constitute, with or without the passage of time and giving of notice, either a default under any such provision or an event that results in the creation of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any assets of Actagene or the suspension, revocation, impairment, forfeiture or nonrenewal of any material permit, license, authorization or approval applicable to Actagene, its business or operations or any of its assets or properties, except for any such conflicts, violations, breaches, defaults or other occurrences that would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on Actagene.

Section 3.11 Agreements; Action.

Except as set forth in Section 3.11 in the Actagene Schedule of Exceptions:

(a) Except as contemplated hereby and except for salary, bonus and benefits generally available to all employees paid to or stock option or stock purchase agreements with officers or employees of Actagene which have been approved by the Board of Directors, there are no material agreements, understandings or proposed transactions between Actagene and any of its officers, directors, affiliates or any affiliate thereof.

(b) There are no agreements, understandings, instruments, contracts, proposed transactions, judgments, orders, writs or decrees to which Actagene is a party or by which it is bound that may (i) involve obligations (contingent or otherwise) of, or payments to Actagene, in excess of $15,000, other than obligations of, or payments to, Actagene arising from purchase or sale agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business, (ii) involve the transfer or license of any material patent, copyright, trade secret or other proprietary right to or from Actagene, other than licenses arising from the purchase of “off the shelf” or other standard products, or (iii) restrict Actagene’s ability to market or sell any of its products (territorial or otherwise).

(c) Actagene has not (i) declared or paid any dividends or authorized or made any distribution upon or with respect to any class or series of its capital stock, (ii) incurred any indebtedness for money borrowed or any other liabilities individually in excess of $15,000 or, in the case of indebtedness and/or liabilities individually less than $15,000, in excess of $25,000 in the aggregate, (iii) made any loans or advances to any Person, other than ordinary advances for travel expenses, or (iv) sold, exchanged or otherwise disposed of any of its assets or rights, other than the sale of its inventory in the ordinary course of business.

(d) For the purposes of subsections (b) and (c) above, all indebtedness, liabilities, agreements, understandings, instruments, contracts and proposed transactions involving the same Person or entity (including Persons or entities Actagene has reason to believe are affiliated therewith) shall be aggregated for the purpose of meeting the individual minimum dollar amounts of such subsections.

(e) To Actagene’s Knowledge, each agreement set forth on the Actagene Schedule of Exceptions pursuant to this Section 3.11 (each a “Material Agreement”) is in full force and effect and no other party to such Material Agreement is in material default or breach thereunder.

Section 3.12 Related-Party Transactions. Except as set forth in Section 3.12 of the Actagene Schedule of Exceptions, no employee, officer or director of Actagene or member of his or her immediate family is indebted to Actagene, nor is Actagene indebted (or committed to make loans or extend or guarantee credit) to any of them, other than for accrued salaries, reimbursable expenses or other benefits generally available to all employees in the ordinary course of Actagene’s business.

This Agreement and the documents and instruments and other agreements specifically referred to herein or delivered pursuant hereto, including the Exhibits and Schedules hereto, the Actagene Schedule of Exceptions, the Indemnification Agreement and the Stockholder Letters and (a) together constitute the entire agreement among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and (b) other than as expressly provided in this Agreement, are not intended to confer upon any other Person any rights or remedies hereunder and shall not be assigned by operation of Law or otherwise without the written consent of the other Party.

Section 9.4 Severability. In the event that any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement will continue in full force and effect and the application of such provision to other Persons or circumstances will be interpreted so as reasonably to effect the intent of the Parties hereto. The Parties further agree to replace such void or unenforceable provision of this Agreement with a valid and enforceable provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such void or unenforceable provision.

Section 9.5 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware as to matters within the scope thereof, and as to all other matters shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal Laws of California, without regard to applicable principles of conflicts of Law.

All remedies hereunder are cumulative, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement.

Section 9.7 Amendment; Waiver.

The failure of a Party to exercise any of its rights hereunder or to insist upon strict adherence to any term or condition hereof on any one occasion shall not be construed as a waiver or deprive that Party of the right thereafter to insist upon strict adherence to the terms and conditions of this Agreement at a later date. Further, no waiver of any of the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall be deemed to or shall constitute a waiver of any other term of condition hereof (whether or not similar).

Section 9.8 Waiver of Jury Trial.
