 of the initial waiting period, the parties must observe a second 30-day waiting period, which would begin to run only after the parties have substantially complied with the Second Request, unless the waiting period is terminated earlier or the parties otherwise agree not to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement until a specified time has expired or the agreement has been terminated. Purchaser and Merger Sub shall not amend, revoke or refile any filing, submission, application, notification or report form or extend any applicable waiting or review periods or enter into any agreement with a governmental authority to delay or not to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, except with the prior written consent of Fortegra, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

At any time before or after consummation of the Merger, notwithstanding the termination or expiration of the waiting period under the HSR Act, the FTC or the DOJ could take such action under the antitrust laws as it deems necessary or desirable in the public interest, and at any time before or after the completion of the Merger, any U.S. state could take such action under the antitrust laws as it deems necessary or desirable in the public interest. Such action could include seeking to enjoin the completion of the Merger or seeking divestiture of assets of the parties. Private parties may also seek to take legal action under the antitrust laws under certain circumstances. We cannot be certain that a challenge to the Merger will not be made or that, if a challenge is made, we will prevail.
