Seller has the corporate power and authority to own, operate and lease its properties and to carry on its business as presently conducted and is duly qualified or licensed to do business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction where the character of its properties owned or leased or the nature of its activities make such qualification or licensing necessary, except where the failure to be so qualified or licensed would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to adversely affect any of the Purchased Assets or Seller’s ability to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Seller is not in violation of its certificate of incorporation or bylaws.

Seller has the requisite corporate power and authority to enter into, deliver and perform its obligations under, and consummate the transactions contemplated by, this Agreement. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, and the consummation of the Asset Purchase, have been duly and validly approved and authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of Seller, and this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by Seller.

The approval of Seller’s stockholders is not required for the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, and the consummation of the Asset Purchase.

 

Section 4.03    Noncontravention. The execution and delivery by Seller of this Agreement does not, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, including the transfer of title to, ownership in, and possession of the Purchased Assets, will not, (a) result in the creation of any Encumbrance on any of the Purchased Assets or (b) 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, revocation, cancellation or acceleration of any obligation or loss of any benefit under, or require any consent, approval or waiver from any Person pursuant to, (i) any provision of the certificate of incorporation or bylaws of Seller, (ii) any Contract to which Seller is a party or by which it is bound which involves or affects in any way any of the Purchased Assets or (iii) except as may be required to comply with the HSR Act, any Legal Requirements applicable to Seller or any of the Purchased Assets (except, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above, as would not, individually or in the aggregate, have an adverse effect on the ability of Seller to consummate the sale of the Purchased Assets at Closing and perform its other obligations under this Agreement or Buyer’s ownership and rights with respect to any of the Purchased Assets after the Closing).

 

Section 4.04    No Consents. Except for the letters referenced in Section 3.02(g) and the filing of any Premerger Notification and Report Form required under the HSR Act, no filing, authorization, consent, approval, permit, order, registration or declaration, governmental or otherwise, is necessary to enable or authorize Seller to enter into, and to perform its obligations under, this Agreement.

Seller is the sole and exclusive owner of the Purchased Assets and owns and at the Closing will transfer to Buyer good and transferable title to the Purchased Assets free and clear of any Encumbrances. Seller has performed all actions necessary to perfect its ownership of, and its ability to transfer, the Purchased Assets pursuant to this Agreement. Neither Seller nor any of its Affiliates has sold, transferred, conveyed, assigned, or delivered any Purchased Assets (except that Zevra DN transferred to Seller all of its right, title and interest in and to the Purchased Assets as evidenced by the Bill of Sale between Zevra DN and Seller, dated as of November 10, 2024, as further described in Schedule 4.05), or offered to do so, to any Person, and Seller has the full and sole right to sell, transfer, convey, assign, and deliver the Purchased Assets to Buyer free and clear of all Encumbrances and, at the Closing, will sell, transfer, convey, assign and deliver to Buyer good and transferable title to the Purchased Assets free and clear of any Encumbrances.

 

Section 4.06    Contracts. Except for this Agreement, there is no Contract to which Seller or any Affiliate of Seller is a party that involves or affects the ownership of, licensing of, title to, or use of any of the Purchased Assets.

Seller and its Affiliates have not received any written notice or other written communication from any Person regarding any actual, alleged, possible or potential material violation of, or failure to comply with, any such Legal Requirement. Since the three (3) year period prior to the Closing Date and as it relates to the FDA approval of the Subject NDA, the Approval Letter, the Priority Review Voucher or the activities giving rise to such FDA approval of the Subject NDA, the Approval Letter or the Priority Review Voucher, neither Seller, any Affiliate of Seller, nor to the Knowledge of Seller, any Representative of Seller or any Affiliate of Seller, has made an untrue statement of material fact or a fraudulent statement to the FDA or any other Governmental Entity, failed to disclose a material fact or a fraudulent statement to the FDA or any other Governmental Entity or committed an act, made a statement or failed to make a statement that, at the time such disclosure was made, would reasonably be expected to provide a basis for the FDA to invoke its policy respecting “Fraud, Untrue Statements of Material Facts, Bribery, and Illegal Gratuities,” set forth in 56 Fed. Reg. 46191 (September 10, 1991) or for any other Governmental Entity to invoke any similar policy and which could reasonably be expected to result in a revocation of the Priority Review Voucher.

 

Section 4.08    Legal Proceedings. There is no pending, or to Seller’s Knowledge, threatened Proceeding involving Seller or any of its Affiliates, nor has there been any Proceeding involving Seller or any of its Affiliates, and neither Seller nor any of its Affiliates are a party or subject to the provisions of any Order, in each case, (a) that involves or affects (or may involve or affect) the issuance of, continued validity of, ownership of, transfer or license of, title to, or use of any of the Purchased Assets (including any such Order that seeks to prohibit or limit in any respect, or place any conditions on, the ownership or use by Buyer or its Affiliates of any of the Purchased Assets, in each case, as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement), or (b) that otherwise challenges or seeks to restrain, prohibit, prevent, enjoin, alter, or delay the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 4.10    Revocation; Regulatory Change. The Priority Review Voucher has been duly granted and issued and has not been terminated, cancelled or revoked and, to the Seller’s Knowledge, there are no facts or circumstances that would reasonably be expected to give rise to a right of the FDA to revoke (or that would otherwise result in the revocation of) the Priority Review Voucher, or result in the redemption or transfer of the Priority Review Voucher (other than pursuant to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement), or that would reasonably be expected to preclude or interfere with the sale and transfer of the Purchased Assets to Buyer or Buyer’s use of the Purchased Assets following the Closing to obtain Priority Review (other than as set forth in any Legal Requirements in existence on the date hereof). To the Knowledge of Seller, there is no term or condition imposed by the FDA on the Priority Review Voucher that is not set forth in the Approval Letter or provided for under applicable Legal Requirements.

Section 4.16    No Other Representations.

Section 7.04    No Solicitation. During the Pre‑Closing Period, Seller shall not and shall cause its controlled Affiliates not to, nor shall it authorize or instruct any of its other Affiliates or its or their Representatives to, (i) solicit, initiate, facilitate or encourage any inquiries, proposals or offers with respect to, or the submission of, any Alternative Transaction by any Person (other than Buyer or its Affiliates or their respective Representatives) or any inquiry, proposal or offer that is reasonably likely to lead to an Alternative Transaction, (ii) engage, continue or participate in any discussions or negotiations regarding, or take any other action intended or reasonably expected to facilitate the making of any inquiry, proposal or offer to Seller that constitutes, or may reasonably be expected to lead to, any Alternative Transaction by any Person (other than Buyer or its Affiliates or their respective Representatives) other than to state that they are not permitted to have discussions, (iii) accept any inquiry, proposal or offer from any Person (other than Buyer) in respect of an Alternative Transaction, or (iv) resolve to propose or agree to do any of the foregoing.

 

Section 7.05    Notice of Intent to Use.

(a)    Upon the Effective Date, Seller shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Buyer a letter, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit G and duly executed by Seller, addressed to the FDA confirming the Parties’ agreement, subject to approval under the HSR Act, to transfer the Priority Review Voucher to Buyer and confirming that Seller has authorized Buyer to submit a Pre‑Closing PRV Notice.

For the avoidance of doubt, subject to the requirements of the FDCA and the Approval Letter, the Target PRV Use Date shall be determined by Buyer in Buyer’s sole discretion.

 

(d)    The Parties shall, or shall cause their respective Affiliates to, keep the other Party reasonably apprised of the status of any communications with, and any inquiries or requests for additional information from, the FDA in connection with any Pre‑Closing PRV Notice.

(e)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, none of Buyer, its Affiliates or its or their Representatives, on the one hand, or Seller, its Affiliates or its or their Representatives, on the other hand, shall, prior to the Closing, take any action, make any filing or provide any notice which will or would reasonably be expected to result in the use, termination, cancellation or revocation of the Priority Review Voucher (including the submission of a human drug application which uses or redeems the Priority Review Voucher) or would otherwise adversely affect the future value, use or transferability of, or either Buyer’s or Seller’s, as applicable, rights in, the Priority Review Voucher following any termination of this Agreement; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 7.05(e) shall not prohibit any such Person from taking any action, making any filing or providing any notice in a manner expressly contemplated by this Agreement.

ARTICLE VIII.
INDEMNIFICATION

 

Section 8.01    Indemnification.

 

(a)    Indemnification by Seller. From and after the Closing, Seller will indemnify, defend and hold Buyer and its Affiliates, and their respective Representatives, successors and assigns (each, a “Buyer Indemnitee”) harmless for, from and against any and all Liabilities, losses, damages, claims, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) (collectively, “Damages”), whether or not arising from, relating to, or otherwise in connection with a claim of a Third Party (each, a “Third Party Claim”), which any Buyer Indemnitee may suffer, incur, sustain, or become subject to, to the extent arising from, relating to or otherwise in connection with (i) any breach of, or inaccuracy in, any of Seller’s representations and warranties made under this Agreement or any certificate delivered by Seller hereunder; (ii) any breach of, or failure to perform, any of Seller’s (or Zevra DN’s) covenants or obligations made under this Agreement or any certificate delivered by Seller hereunder; or (iii) arising out of any Excluded Liabilities.

 

(b)    Indemnification by Buyer. From and after the Closing, Buyer will indemnify, defend and hold Seller and its Affiliates, and their respective Representatives, successors and assigns (each, a “Seller Indemnitee”) harmless for, from and against any and all Damages, whether or not arising from, relating to or otherwise in connection with a Third Party Claim, which any Seller Indemnitee may suffer, incur, sustain, or become subject to, to the extent arising from, relating to or otherwise in connection with (i) any breach of, or inaccuracy in. any of Buyer’s representations and warranties made under this Agreement or any certificate delivered by Buyer hereunder; or (ii) any breach of, or failure to perform, any of Buyer’s covenants or obligations made under this Agreement or any certificate delivered by Buyer hereunder.

 

Section 8.02    Indemnification Procedures.

 

(a)    A Person entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 8.01 will hereinafter be referred to as an “Indemnitee.” A Party obligated to indemnify an Indemnitee hereunder will hereinafter be referred to as an “Indemnitor.”

 

(b)    A claim for indemnification for any matter not involving a Third Party Claim may be asserted by written notice to the Indemnitor. Such notice shall include the facts constituting the basis for such claim for indemnification, the Sections of this Agreement upon which such claim for indemnification is then based and an estimate, to the extent known, of the amount of Damages suffered or reasonably expected to be suffered by the Indemnitee; provided that the failure to give such notification or any deficiency in such notification will not relieve such Indemnitor from any obligation under this Article VIII, except (i) to the extent such failure to give such notification or such deficiency in such notification actually and materially prejudices such Indemnitor or (ii) as provided in Section 8.01. If the Indemnitor does not notify the Indemnitee within twenty (20) Business Days following its receipt of such notice that the Indemnitor rejects liability in the specified amount for the indemnity claimed by the Indemnitee under Section 8.01(a) or Section 8.01(b), as applicable, such indemnity claim specified by the Indemnitee in such notice shall be deemed accepted by the Indemnitor, in which case, the Indemnitee will be obligated to promptly pay the Indemnitee the full amount (subject, however, to the limitations set forth in Section 8.03) set forth in such notice with respect to such indemnity claim under this Article VIII in accordance with the terms hereof.

 

(c)    In the event of any instituted or asserted Third Party Claim against an Indemnitee, Indemnitee shall inform Indemnitor of such Third Party Claim as soon as reasonably practicable after such Third Party Claim arises; provided that the failure to give such notification or any deficiency in such notification will not relieve such Indemnitor from any obligation under this Article VIII, except (i) to the extent such failure to give such notification or such deficiency in such notification actually and materially prejudices such Indemnitor or (ii) as provided in Section 10.01.

 

 

(d)    The Indemnitor shall have the right to defend, at its sole cost and expense (with counsel reasonably selected by the Indemnitor and approved by the Indemnitee, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), a Third Party Claim by all appropriate proceedings, which proceedings shall be prosecuted diligently by the Indemnitor to a final conclusion or settled at the discretion of the Indemnitor; provided, however, that the Indemnitor may not assume control of defense to a Third Party Claim (i) unless it covenants to the Indemnitee in writing within ten (10) Business Days after the Indemnitee has given written notice of the Third Party Claim to the Indemnitor to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Indemnitee from and against the entirety of any and all Damages that the Indemnitee may suffer resulting from or arising out of the Third Party Claim (subject, however, to the limitations set forth in Section 8.03), (ii) in which equitable relief other than monetary damages is sought, (iii) if such Third Party Claim is brought by a Governmental Entity or is otherwise related to or arises in connection with any FDA, Tax or criminal or regulatory enforcement matter, (iv) if the Indemnitee has been advised in writing by outside counsel that a legal conflict or potential legal conflict exists between the Indemnitee and the Indemnitor in connection with conducting the defense of the Third Party Claim, or (v) settlement of, an adverse Order with respect to, or conduct of the defense of the Third Party Claim by the Indemnitor is, in the good faith judgment of the Indemnitee, likely to be materially adverse to the Indemnitee’s or its Affiliates’ reputation or continuing business interests (including its relationships with current or potential customers, licensors, distributors, suppliers, or other parties material to the conduct of its business); provided, further, however, that the Indemnitor may not enter into any compromise or settlement unless (i) such compromise or settlement includes as an unconditional term thereof, the giving by each claimant or plaintiff to the Indemnitee of a release from all liability in respect of such Third Party Claim; and (ii) the Indemnitee consents to such compromise or settlement, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed unless such compromise or settlement involves (A) any admission of legal wrongdoing by the Indemnitee, (B) any payment by the Indemnitee that is not indemnified hereunder or (C) the imposition of any equitable relief against the Indemnitee, in which case ((A) – (C)) the Indemnitee may withhold its consent in its sole discretion. If a good faith and diligent defense is not being or ceases to be materially conducted by the Indemnitor, the Indemnitee shall have the right, at the expense of the Indemnitor, upon at least ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Indemnitor of its intent to do so, to undertake the defense of such Third Party Claim for the account of the Indemnitor (with counsel reasonably selected by the Indemnitee and approved by the Indemnitor, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If the Indemnitee is defending such Third Party Claim, the Indemnitee shall keep the Indemnitor apprised of all material developments with respect to such Third Party Claim and promptly provide the Indemnitor with copies of all correspondence and documents exchanged by the Indemnitee and the opposing party(ies) to such litigation. If the Indemnitor has elected to defend such Third Party Claim or if the Indemnitor has otherwise acknowledged in writing its responsibility for indemnifying a Third Party Claim, the Indemnitee may not compromise or settle such litigation without the prior written consent of the Indemnitor, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

 

(e)    The Indemnitee may participate in, but not control, any defense or settlement of any Third Party Claim controlled by the Indemnitor pursuant to this Section 8.02 and shall bear its own costs and expenses with respect to such participation; provided, however, that the Indemnitor shall bear such costs and expenses (i) if counsel for the Indemnitor or counsel for the Indemnitee shall have reasonably determined that counsel for the Indemnitor may not properly represent both the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee or (ii) if such participation is requested by the Indemnitor.

 

Section 8.03    Limitations on Indemnification. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the maximum aggregate amount of indemnifiable Damages that may be recovered from (a) Seller pursuant to Section 8.01(a) shall equal the Purchase Price, and (b) Buyer pursuant to Section 8.01(b) shall equal the Purchase Price. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, except to the extent actually awarded against an Indemnitee pursuant to an Order with respect to a Third Party Claim and except for another Party’s fraud, no Party shall have any liability under any provision of this Agreement (including this Article VIII) for any punitive, incidental, special or indirect damages or damages for or otherwise based on business interruption, diminution of value, loss of future revenue, profits or income, or loss of business reputation or opportunity relating to the breach or alleged breach of this Agreement. Nothing in this Section 8.03 shall operate to limit or exclude in any way Seller’s liability for any and all Excluded Liabilities.

 

Section 8.04    Additional Indemnification Matters. The right of indemnification provided under this Article VIII shall not be affected by any knowledge acquired (or capable of being acquired) at any time, whether before or after the Closing, with respect to the accuracy or inaccuracy of, or compliance or noncompliance with, any representation, warranty, covenant, or agreement contained herein. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, for the purposes of this Article VIII, for the purposes of determining the amount of Damages, each representation or warranty made by a Party will be deemed made without any qualifications or limitations as to materiality and, without limiting the foregoing, the word “material” and words of similar import will be deemed deleted from any such representation or warranty.

 

Section 8.05    Exclusive Remedy. From and after the Closing, except in the case of fraud and as otherwise provided in Section 11.09, the sole and exclusive remedy of any Indemnitee for any Damages that such Indemnitee may at any time suffer or incur, or become subject to, as a result of, or in connection with this Agreement, including any inaccuracy, violation or breach of any representation and warranty contained in this Agreement by any Party, or any failure by any Party to perform or comply with any covenant or agreement that, by its terms, was to have been performed, or complied with, under this Agreement, shall be indemnification in accordance with this Article VIII (subject to the applicable qualifications and limitations set forth in this Agreement).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, without prior submission to or approval of the other Party, either Party may issue press releases or public announcements which incorporate only such information concerning this Agreement as was included in a press release or public disclosure which was previously disclosed under the terms of this Agreement or which contains only non‑material factual information regarding this Agreement. Each Party acknowledges that the other Party, or the other Party’s parent entity, as a publicly traded company is legally obligated to make timely disclosures of material events relating to its business. The Parties acknowledge that either or both Parties may be obligated to file a copy of this Agreement with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission; provided that if a Party is obligated to so file a copy of this Agreement, such Party shall prepare a proposed redacted version thereof and request confidential treatment thereof, and the other Party may promptly provide its comments and additional proposed redactions, if any, thereon, which comments and proposed redactions, if any, shall be considered in good faith by the Party required to so file a copy of this Agreement.

 

Section 10.06    Expenses. Whether or not the Asset Purchase and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated, and except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, each of the Parties shall bear its own fees and expenses incurred or owed in connection with the purchase and sale of the Purchased Assets, this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

 

ARTICLE XI.
GENERAL PROVISIONS

 

Section 11.01    Survival. The representations and warranties of Seller and Buyer contained in this Agreement, and liability for the breach thereof, shall survive the Closing and shall remain in full force and effect for a period of eighteen (18) months following the Closing Date; provided, however, that (a) all covenants that by their terms was to be performed at or prior to the Closing and all Fundamental Representations and any claims for Fraud shall survive the Closing Date and remain in full force and effect until the later of (i) the date that is six (6) years after the Closing Date, and (ii) the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations, and (b) covenants which are by their terms to be performed following the Closing shall survive the Closing and remain in full force and effect until performed in accordance with their terms. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if written notice of a claim has been given in the manner required by Section 8.02 prior to the expiration of the applicable survival period by the Party seeking indemnification for such claim, then the relevant covenants, representations and warranties of the other Party shall survive as to such claim until such claim has been finally resolved pursuant to Article VIII.

 

Section 11.02    Transfer Taxes and Fees. Any and all sales, excise, use, value‑added and similar taxes, fees or duties assessed or incurred by reason of the sale by Seller and the purchase by Buyer of the Purchased Assets hereunder (“Transfer Taxes”) shall be borne fifty percent (50%) by Buyer on the one hand, and fifty percent (50%) by Seller on the other hand, regardless of which Party such taxes, fees or duties are assessed against. The party that is primarily responsible for the filing of any Tax return or other documentation with respect to Transfer Taxes shall promptly prepare and file such Tax return or documentation, as applicable, and the other party shall provide such cooperation in connection therewith as may be reasonably requested by the filing party. Buyer, its Affiliates, or any Buyer transferee of the Priority Review Voucher shall be solely responsible for the payment of the priority review fee described in 21 U.S.C. § 360ff(c) (the “Priority Review Fee”) and all other user fees applicable to the human drug application for which the Priority Review Voucher is redeemed, following the Closing. For the avoidance of doubt, following the Closing, Seller shall have no liability or obligation for any such fees.

 

Section 11.03    Notices. Any notice or other communication required or permitted to be delivered to any Party shall be in writing and shall be deemed properly delivered, given and received: (a) when delivered by hand; (b) on the date sent by e‑mail of a PDF document (with confirmation of transmission) if sent prior to 5:00 p.m. in the time zone of the intended recipient on a Business Day, and otherwise on the next Business Day or (c) upon such Party’s receipt after being sent by registered mail, by courier or express delivery service; or (d) upon confirmation of receipt during normal business hours on a Business Day or, if received after normal business hours, on the next Business Day, after being sent by facsimile, in any case to the address or facsimile number set forth beneath the name of such Party below (or to such other address as such Party shall have specified in a written notice given to the other Party in accordance with this Section 11.03):

Section 11.04    Construction.

 

(a)    The Parties agree that any rule of construction to the effect that ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting Party shall not be applied in the construction or interpretation of this Agreement.

 

(b)    As used in this Agreement, the words “include” and “including,” and variations thereof, shall not be deemed to be terms of limitation, but rather shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation” and the word “or” is not intended to be exclusive unless expressly indicated otherwise. The words “will” and “shall” have the same meaning. “Extent” in the phrase “to the extent” means the degree to which a subject or other thing extends, and such phrase does not mean simply “if.”

 

(c)    The words “hereof,” “herein” and “hereunder” and words of like import used in this Agreement shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement. Except as otherwise indicated, (i) all references in this Agreement to “Articles,” “Sections,” “Schedules” or “Exhibits” are intended to refer to Articles, Sections, Schedules or Exhibits of this Agreement, and (ii) references in any Section to any clause are references to such clause of such Section.

 

(d)    Except where the context otherwise requires, wherever used, the singular shall include the plural, the plural the singular, the use of any gender shall be applicable to all genders and the word “or” is used in the inclusive sense (and/or).

 

(e)    Whenever this Agreement refers to a number of days, unless otherwise specified, such number refers to calendar days.

 

(f)    The captions, table of contents and headings in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and in no way define, describe, extend, or limit the scope or intent of this Agreement or the intent of any provision contained in this Agreement.

 

(g)    Unless otherwise specified, (i) references to any applicable law or other Legal Requirement shall be deemed to refer to such law or Legal Requirement as amended from time to time and to any rules, regulations or interpretations promulgated thereunder and (ii) references to any agreement or Contract are to that agreement or Contract as amended, modified, supplemented, extended or renewed from time to time in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof.

 

Section 11.05    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same instrument, and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the Parties and delivered to the other Party, it being understood that all Parties need not sign the same counterpart. The exchange of a fully executed Agreement (in counterparts or otherwise) by electronic transmission or facsimile shall be sufficient to bind the Parties to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

 

Section 11.06    Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including all exhibits and schedules attached hereto and the Confidentiality Agreement by and between the Parties (or, in the case of Buyer, its Affiliate), dated January 29, 2025, sets forth the entire understanding of the Parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings among or between the Parties relating to the subject matter hereof.

 

Section 11.07    Assignment. No Party will have the right to assign this Agreement, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise, without the other Party’s express prior written consent. Any attempt to assign this Agreement without such consent, will be null and void. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Party may assign this Agreement, in whole or in part, without the consent of the other Party: (a) to a Third Party that succeeds to all or substantially all of its assets or business related to this Agreement (whether by sale, merger, operation of law or otherwise); or (b) to an Affiliate of such Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer may assign this Agreement, in whole or in part, without Seller’s consent, to any purchaser, transferee, or assignee of any of the Purchased Assets. For the avoidance of doubt, no assignment made pursuant to this Section 11.07 shall relieve the assigning Party of any of its obligations under this Agreement. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement will bind and inure to the benefit of each Party’s successors and permitted assigns.

 

Section 11.08    Severability. If 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 shall continue in full force and effect and shall be interpreted so as reasonably to effect the intent of the Parties. The Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to replace such void or unenforceable provision of this Agreement with a valid and enforceable provision that shall achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such void or unenforceable provision.

 

 

Section 11.09    Remedies Cumulative. Except as otherwise provided herein, any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a Party shall be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby or by law or equity upon such Party, and the exercise by a Party of any one remedy shall not preclude the exercise of any other remedy and nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed a waiver by any Party of any right to specific performance or injunctive relief. The Parties agree that irreparable harm would occur in the event that the transactions contemplated hereby are not consummated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and that money damages or other legal remedies would not be an adequate remedy for any such harm. Accordingly, the Parties acknowledge and hereby covenant and agree that in the event of any breach or threatened breach of the covenants, agreements, or obligations set forth in this Agreement, then in addition to any other remedy available at law or in equity, the non‑breaching Party will be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions to prevent or restrain any breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement, and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement to enforce compliance with the covenants, agreements, and obligations under this Agreement. Each Party hereby covenants and agrees not to raise, and irrevocably waives, any objections to the availability of such relief that a remedy at law would be adequate and that a bond or other security will be required.

 

Section 11.10    Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of Delaware, regardless of the laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of law. The Parties irrevocably and unconditionally submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts in Delaware solely and specifically for the purposes of any action or proceeding arising out of or in connection with this Agreement.

 

Section 11.11    WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY, AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR OTHER LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE TRANSACTIONS IT CONTEMPLATES. THIS WAIVER APPLIES TO ANY ACTION OR LEGAL PROCEEDING, WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE.

 

Section 11.12    Amendment; Extension; Waiver. Subject to the provisions of applicable Legal Requirements, the Parties may amend this Agreement at any time pursuant to an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of the Parties. At any time, any Party may, to the extent legally allowed, (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other Party, (b) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties made to such Party contained herein or (c) waive compliance with any of the agreements or conditions for the benefit of such Party contained herein. Any agreement on the part of a Party to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of such Party. Without limiting the generality or effect of the preceding sentence, no delay in exercising any right under this Agreement shall constitute a waiver of such right, and no waiver of any breach or default shall be deemed a waiver of any other breach or default of the same or any other provision in this Agreement.

 

Section 11.13    Representation By Counsel; Interpretation. Seller and Buyer each acknowledge that it has been represented by its own legal counsel in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Accordingly, any rule of law, or any legal decision that would require interpretation of any claimed ambiguities in this Agreement against the Party that drafted it, has no application and is expressly waived.
