7.14 Independent Nature of Investor’s Obligations and Rights. The obligations of the Investor under this Agreement are several and not joint with the obligations of any Other Investor, and the Investor shall not be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any Other Investor under any Other Agreement. Nothing contained herein or in any Other Agreement, and no action taken by the Investor pursuant hereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Investor and Other Investors as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Investor and Other Investors are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any Other Agreement and the Company acknowledges that, to the best of its knowledge, the Investor and the Other Investors are not acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any Other Agreement. The Company and the Investor confirm that the Investor has independently participated in the negotiation of the transactions contemplated hereby with the advice of its own counsel and advisors. The Investor shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement, and it shall not be necessary for any Other Investor to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.
7.15 Equal Treatment Acknowledgement; Most Favored Nations. The parties hereto herby acknowledge and agree that, in accordance with the terms of existing agreements with the Company relating to the Investor Securities, the Company is obligated to present the terms of this offering to each Other Investor; provided that each Other Agreement shall be negotiated separately with each Other Investor and shall not in any way be construed as the Investor or any Other Investor acting in concert or as a group with respect to the purchase, disposition or voting of securities of the Company or otherwise. The Company hereby represents and warrants as of the date hereof and covenants and agrees that none of the terms offered to any Person with respect to the Exchange, including, without limitation with respect to any consent, release, amendment, settlement, or waiver relating to the Exchange (each an “Exchange Document”), is or will be more favorable to such Person than those of the Investor and this Agreement. If, and whenever on or after the date hereof, the Company enters into an Exchange Document, then (i) the Company shall provide notice thereof to the Investor immediately following the occurrence thereof and (ii) the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall be, without any further action by the Investor or the Company, automatically amended and modified in an economically and legally equivalent manner such that the Investor shall receive the benefit of the more favorable terms and/or conditions (as the case may be) set forth in such Exchange Document, provided that upon written notice to the Company at any time the Investor may elect not to accept the benefit of any such amended or modified term or condition, in which event the term or condition contained in this Agreement shall apply to the Investor as it was in effect immediately prior to such amendment or modification as if such amendment or modification never occurred with respect to the Investor. The provisions of this Section 8.16 shall apply similarly and equally to each Exchange Document.
