Upon the Purchaser’s receipt of a Blocker Release Notice, the Excess Shares shall be deemed to be owned by the Seller, regardless of the date of actual delivery of such Excess Shares. The Purchaser shall deliver any Excess Shares subject to a Blocker Notice to the Seller (or its designee) no later than the second (2nd) Trading Day after the date of receipt of such Blocker Release Notice.

19.         Payment Set Aside; Currency; Fractional Shares.          To the extent that the Purchaser makes a payment or payments to the Seller hereunder or pursuant to any of the other Transaction Documents or the Seller enforce or exercise their rights hereunder or thereunder, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or exercise or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered from, disgorged by or are required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to the Purchaser, a trustee, receiver or any other Person under any law (including, without limitation, any bankruptcy law, foreign, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause of action), then to the extent of any such restoration the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred. Unless otherwise expressly indicated, all dollar amounts referred to in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents are in United States Dollars (“U.S. Dollars”), and all amounts owing under this Agreement and all other Transaction Documents shall be paid in U.S. Dollars. All amounts denominated in other currencies (if any) shall be converted into the U.S. Dollar equivalent amount in accordance with the Exchange Rate on the date of calculation. “Exchange Rate” means, in relation to any amount of currency to be converted into U.S. Dollars pursuant to this Agreement, the U.S. Dollar exchange rate as published in the Wall Street Journal on the relevant date of calculation.

20.         Judgment Currency.

 

(a)          If for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment against the Purchaser in connection with this Agreement or any other Transaction Document in any court in any jurisdiction it becomes necessary to convert into any other currency (such other currency being hereinafter in this Section 18 referred to as the “Judgment Currency”) an amount due in US Dollars under this Agreement, the conversion shall be made at the Exchange Rate prevailing on the Trading Day immediately preceding:

 

(i)          the date actual payment of the amount due, in the case of any proceeding in the courts of New York or in the courts of any other jurisdiction that will give effect to such conversion being made on such date; or

 

(ii)         the date on which the foreign court determines, in the case of any proceeding in the courts of any other jurisdiction (the date as of which such conversion is made pursuant to this Section 18(a) being hereinafter referred to as the “Judgment Conversion Date”).

 

  - 25 -  

  

  

(b)          If in the case of any proceeding in the court of any jurisdiction referred to in Section 18(a)(i) above, there is a change in the Exchange Rate prevailing between the Judgment Conversion Date and the date of actual payment of the amount due, the applicable party shall pay such adjusted amount as may be necessary to ensure that the amount paid in the Judgment Currency, when converted at the Exchange Rate prevailing on the date of payment, will produce the amount of US Dollars which could have been purchased with the amount of Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment or judicial order at the Exchange Rate prevailing on the Judgment Conversion Date.

 

(c)          Any amount due from the Purchaser under this provision shall be due as a separate debt and shall not be affected by judgment being obtained for any other amounts due under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document.

 

21.         Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and the schedules and exhibits attached hereto and thereto and the instruments referenced herein and therein supersede all other prior oral or written agreements between the Seller, the Purchaser, its Subsidiaries, their affiliates, the Borrower, its subsidiaries, their affiliates, and Persons acting on their behalf, including, without limitation, any transactions by the Seller with respect to Common Stock or the Shares, and the other matters contained herein and therein, and this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents, the schedules and exhibits attached hereto and thereto and the instruments referenced herein and therein contain the entire understanding of the parties solely with respect to the matters covered herein and therein. Except as specifically set forth herein or therein, neither the Purchaser, nor the Borrower nor the Seller makes any representation, warranty, covenant or undertaking with respect to such matters. For clarification purposes, the Recitals are part of this Agreement. No provision of this Agreement may be amended other than by an instrument in writing signed by the Purchaser, the Borrower and the Seller and any amendment to any provision of this Agreement made in conformity with the provisions of this Section 19 shall be binding on each of the parties hereto. No waiver shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by an authorized representative of the waiving party. Neither Purchaser, nor the Borrower has, directly or indirectly, made any agreements with the Seller relating to the terms or conditions of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents except as set forth in the Transaction Documents. As a material inducement for the Seller to enter into this Agreement, (I) the Purchaser expressly acknowledges and agrees that (x) no due diligence or other investigation or inquiry conducted by the Seller, any of its advisors or any of its representatives shall affect the Seller’s right to rely on, or shall modify or qualify in any manner or be an exception to any of, the Purchaser’s representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document and (y) unless a provision of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document is expressly preceded by the phrase “except as disclosed in the SEC Documents,” nothing contained in any of the SEC Documents shall affect the Seller’s right to rely on, or shall modify or qualify in any manner or be an exception to any of, the Purchaser’s representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document and (II) the Borrower expressly acknowledges and agrees that (x) no due diligence or other investigation or inquiry conducted by the Seller, any of its advisors or any of its representatives shall affect the Seller’s right to rely on, or shall modify or qualify in any manner or be an exception to any of, the Borrower’s representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document and (y) nothing contained in any of filing by Borrower with the SEC or any other Governmental Entity shall affect the Seller’s right to rely on, or shall modify or qualify in any manner or be an exception to any of, the Borrower’s representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document.

22.         Termination.

Nothing contained in this Section 20 shall be deemed to release any party from any liability for any breach by such party of the terms and provisions of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents or to impair the right of any party to compel specific performance by any other party of its obligations under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents.
