If a transferee of any of the Claims is not a Consenting Noteholder or does not execute a Joinder in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit B, as applicable, prior to or contemporaneously with the completion of such sale, transfer, participation or other disposition, then such sale, transfer, assignment or other disposition or related option, right or interest shall be deemed void ab initio. This Agreement shall in no way be construed to preclude any Consenting Noteholder from acquiring additional Claims; provided, however, that any such additional holdings shall automatically be deemed to be subject to all of the terms of this Agreement and each such Consenting Noteholder agrees that such additional holdings shall be subject to this Agreement and that it shall vote (or cause to be voted) any such additional holdings in a manner consistent with this Agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any transferee lender that specifies in the documentation executed in connection with the transfer of all or any of its Claims that it is acting as a Riskless Principal, as such term is defined by the Loan Syndications and Trading Association in its Standard Terms and Conditions for Distressed Trade Confirmations shall not be required to execute the Joinder annexed hereto as Exhibit B in connection with such transfer; provided, however, that any subsequent transferee lender of such Riskless Principal shall be required to execute the Joinder annexed hereto as Exhibit B. |
13. | Entire Agreement. As of the date this Agreement becomes effective, this Agreement, including the attachments hereto, constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all other prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof; provided, however, that the parties acknowledge and agree that any confidentiality agreements heretofore executed between the Company and any Consenting Noteholder shall continue in full force and effect to the extent they have not previously terminated or expired. |
11
14. | Independent Analysis. Each Consenting Noteholder hereby confirms that it has made its own decision to execute this Agreement based upon its own independent assessment of documents and information available to it, as it has deemed appropriate. |
15. | Representation by Counsel. Each Party acknowledges that it has had the opportunity to be represented by counsel in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Accordingly, any rule of law or any legal decision that would provide any Party with a defense to the enforcement of the terms of this Agreement against such Party based upon lack of legal counsel, shall have no application and is expressly waived. |
16. | Governing Law; Waiver of Jury Trial. |
(a) | The Parties waive all right to trial by jury in any jurisdiction in any action, suit or proceeding brought to resolve any dispute between them, whether sounding in contract, tort or otherwise, arising under this Agreement. |
(b) | This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to the principles of conflict of laws that would require the application of the law of any other jurisdiction. Each Party hereby irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of any New York state court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan in the City of New York or any federal court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan in the City of New York in respect of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, and irrevocably accepts for itself and in respect of its property, generally and unconditionally, jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts.
