Any delay in exercising any right under this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of such right.
8.7 Specific Performance. The parties hereto agree that the obligations imposed on them in this Agreement are special, unique and of an extraordinary character, and that irreparable damages for which money damages, even if available, may not be an adequate remedy, may occur in the event that the parties hereto do not perform the provisions of this Agreement in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breach such provisions. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the parties may be entitled to an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled, at law or in equity; and the parties hereto further agree to waive any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond or other security in connection with the obtaining of any such injunctive or other equitable relief.
8.8 Assignment. The Purchaser may not assign its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Company, other than to the following Persons, to whom the Purchaser may, after Closing, assign its rights and/or transfer its obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Company: any Affiliate or any other investment funds or accounts managed or advised by the investment manager who acts on behalf of the Purchaser. The Company may not assign its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Purchaser. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties to this Agreement and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Any purported assignment other than in compliance with the terms hereof shall be void ab initio. Any assignment and/or transfer of rights by the Purchaser under this Agreement following Closing to any Affiliate of the Purchaser shall enable such Affiliate to exercise such rights (including in respect of representations and warranties) as if such Affiliate were party to this Agreement as of the date hereof and acquired the Subject Shares directly from the Company at Closing.
8.9 Reliance by and Exculpation of Placement Agent.
(a) Purchaser agrees for the express benefit of the Placement Agent and its affiliates and representatives that (i) the Placement Agent and its affiliates and representatives have not made, and will not make any representations or warranties with respect to the Company or the offer and sale of the Subject Shares, and the Purchaser will not rely on any statements made by the Placement Agent, orally or in writing, to the contrary, (ii) Purchaser will be responsible for conducting its own due diligence investigation with respect to the Company and the offer and sale of the Subject Shares, (iii) Purchaser will be purchasing the Subject Shares based on the results of its own due diligence investigation of the Company and the Placement Agent and each of its respective directors, officers, employees, representatives, and controlling persons have made no independent investigation with respect to the Company, the Subject Shares, or the accuracy, completeness, or adequacy of any information supplied to the Purchaser by the Company, (iv) Purchaser has negotiated the offer and sale of the Subject Shares directly with the Company, and the Placement Agent will not be responsible for the ultimate success of any such investment and (v) the decision to invest in the Company will involve a significant degree of risk, including a risk of total loss of such investment. Purchaser further represents and warrants to the Placement Agent that it, including any fund or funds that it manages or advises that participates in the offer and sale of the Subject Shares, is permitted under its constitutive documents (including, without limitation, all limited partnership agreements, charters, bylaws, limited liability company agreements, all applicable side letters with investors, and similar documents) to make investments of the type contemplated by this Agreement. This Section 8.9 shall survive any termination of this Agreement.
(b) Neither the Placement Agent nor any of its affiliates or representatives (i) shall be liable for any improper payment made in accordance with the information provided by the Company; (ii) makes any representation or warranty, or has any responsibilities as to the validity, accuracy, value or genuineness of any information, certificates or documentation delivered by or on behalf of the Company pursuant to the Transaction Documents or in connection with any of the transactions contemplated therein; or (iii) shall be liable (A) for any action taken, suffered or omitted by any of them in good faith and reasonably believed to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by the Transaction Documents or (B) for anything which any of them may do or refrain from doing in connection with the Transaction Documents, except in each case for such party’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct.
8.10 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Except as expressly described herein with respect to the Placement Agent, this Agreement does not create any rights, claims or benefits inuring to any Person that is not a party hereto nor create or establish any third party beneficiary hereto. The Placement Agent is an intended third-party beneficiary of the Company deliverables in Section 2.3 and the representations and warranties in Articles 3 and 4, Sections 8.9 and 8.12, and this Section 8.10. Without limiting the foregoing, the representations and warranties in this Agreement are the product of negotiations among the parties hereto and are for the sole benefit of the parties hereto and the Placement Agent. In some instances, the representations and warranties in this Agreement may represent an allocation among the parties hereto of risks associated with particular matters regardless of the knowledge of any of the parties hereto. Consequently, Persons other than the parties hereto and the Placement Agent may not rely upon the representations and warranties in this Agreement as characterizations of actual facts or circumstances as of the date of this Agreement or as of any other date.
8.11 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed and delivered (including by facsimile or electronic transmission) in any number of counterparts, and by the different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when executed shall be deemed an original, but all of which taken together shall constitute a single instrument.
8.12 Nature of Relationship. The Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that its relationship under this Agreement is purely contractual. Therefore, (i) this Agreement does not create a fiduciary relationship of any kind (partnership, agency, trust, employment or otherwise), nor (save as expressly provided herein) restrict or limit the activities of the parties in any way, (ii) no party is a representative or agent of any other party for any purpose whatsoever, and (iii) no party shall have any right, power or authority to make or enter into any commitments for or on behalf of any other party. Purchaser understands and acknowledges that the Placement Agent has acted solely as the agent of the Company in this placement of the Subject Shares, and Purchaser has not relied on the business or legal advice of the Placement Agent or any of its agents, counsel or affiliates in making its investment decision hereunder.
8.13 Entire Agreement; Amendments. This Agreement and the documents and instruments and other agreements among the parties hereto as contemplated by or referred to herein, including the Exhibits hereto, constitute the entire agreement between the parties hereto respecting the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements, negotiations, understandings, representations and statements respecting the subject matter hereof, whether written or oral. No modification, alteration or change in any of the terms of this Agreement shall be valid or binding upon the parties hereto unless made in writing and duly executed by the Company and the Purchaser.
8.14 No Personal Liability of Directors, Officers, Owners, Etc. No director, officer, employee, incorporator, equity holder, managing member, member, general partner, limited partner, principal or other agent of the Purchaser or the Company shall have any liability for any obligations of the Purchaser or the Company, as applicable, under this Agreement or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, the respective obligations of the Purchaser or the Company, as applicable, under this Agreement. Each party hereby waives and releases all such liability. This waiver and release are a material inducement to each party’s entry into this Agreement.
8.15 Mutual Drafting. This Agreement is the joint product of the Purchaser and the Company, and each provision hereof has been subject to the mutual consultation, negotiation and agreement of such parties and shall not be construed for or against any party hereto.
