        REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT (this "Agreement"), dated as of May 29, 2003, between (i) iBasis, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (the "Company"), (ii) the persons listed on Annex A hereto (the
"Initial Holders"), and (iii) each other Person who becomes a party to this Agreement pursuant to Section 9 hereof (such other Persons
together with the Initial Holders, the "Holders"). Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meaning ascribed to such terms
in Section 2 hereof. 


        WHEREAS,
the Company proposes to issue to the Holders (i) the Commonwealth Warrants, which in the aggregate initially entitle the Holders to purchase, 1,116,605 shares of Common
Stock of the Company on May 29, 2003, and (ii) the Commonwealth Notes, in the aggregate principal amount of $6,100,000, in each case pursuant to a Joinder Agreement (dated as of
May 29, 2003, by and among the Company, iBasis Global, Inc., the Holders and U.S. Bank National Association, as Collateral Agent (the "Joinder
Agreement")) to that certain Securities Exchange Agreement, dated as of February 21, 2003, among the Company, iBasis Global, Inc., the guarantors named therein,
JMG Triton Offshore Limited Fund CITCO and U.S. Bank National Association, as Collateral Agent (as amended, supplemented and otherwise modified from time to time, the
"Securities Exchange Agreement"). 


        WHEREAS,
the Company and the Holders desire to enter into this Agreement to provide the Holders registration rights with respect to the Commonwealth Warrants and the Commonwealth Notes. 


        WHEREAS,
the Commonwealth Warrants and the Commonwealth Notes shall have registration rights as provided herein. 


        NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements herein set forth, the parties hereto agree as follows: 


        Section
1.    Registration Rights.    The Company will perform and comply, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to
perform and comply, with each of the following provisions as are applicable to it. Each Holder will perform and comply with each of the following provisions as are applicable to such holder. 



        1.1    Demand Registration Rights.    



        1.1.1.    General.    At any time after July 30, 2003, one or more holders of (i) the Commonwealth
Warrants who at such time hold greater than 20% of the Commonwealth Warrants (determined based on an as-exercised basis), or (ii) the Commonwealth Notes who at such time hold
greater than 20% of the aggregate principal amount of the Commonwealth Notes (in either case, the "Initiating Holders"), may request, by written notice
to the Company, that the Company effect the registration under the Securities Act for a Public Offering of all or a specified part of the Registrable Securities held by such Initiating Holders. Such
notice shall specify the intended method or methods of distribution and the type of Registrable Securities intended to be so registered. Promptly after receipt of such notice from the Initiating
Holders, the Company shall give notice of such requested registration to all other holders of Registrable Securities in accordance with Section 1.2. The Company will then use its reasonable
best efforts to effect the registration under the Securities Act of the Registrable Securities which the Company has been requested to register by such Initiating Holders, together with all other
Registrable Securities which the Company has been requested to register pursuant to Section 1.2 or otherwise by notice delivered to the Company within 20 days after the Company has given
the required notice of such requested registration (which request shall specify the intended method of disposition of such Registrable Securities), all to the extent requisite to permit the
disposition (in accordance with the intended methods thereof as aforesaid) of the Registrable Securities which the Company has been so requested to register; provided,
however, that the Company shall not be obligated to take any action to effect any such registration pursuant to this Section 1.1.1 within 180 days immediately
following the effective date of any registration statement pertaining to an underwritten public offering of securities of the Company for its own account (other than a Rule 145 Transaction, or
a registration relating solely to employee benefit plans). 







 


        1.1.2.    Form; Limitations.    Except as otherwise provided above, each registration requested pursuant to
Section 1.1.1 shall be effected by the filing of a registration statement on Form S-1 (or any other form which includes substantially the same information as would be
required to be included in a registration statement on such form as currently constituted), unless the use of a different form has been agreed to in writing by holders of at least a majority of the
Registrable Securities to be included in the proposed registration statement in question (the "Majority Participating Holders") or the Company is then
eligible to use Form S-3 for a Public Offering by the Majority Participating Holders of their Registrable Securities; provided,
however, that the Company shall not be required to effect any registration requested pursuant to Section 1.1.1 on any form other than Form S-3 (or any
successor form) if the Company has previously effected three or more registrations of Registrable Securities under Section 1.1.1 on any form other than Form S-3 (or any
successor form). No registration of Registrable Securities which shall not have become and remained effective in accordance with this Section 1.1 shall be included in the calculation of the
number of registrations contemplated by this Section 1.1.2 (unless the Initiating Holders withdraw their request for such registration, other than (i) if such withdrawal is a result of
information concerning the business or financial condition of the Company which is made known after the date on which such registration was requested or (ii) if the Initiating Holders pay all
the expenses of such registration otherwise payable by the Company pursuant to Section 1.1.3). If at the time of any request to register Registrable Securities pursuant to this
Section 1.1.1, the Company is engaged or has plans to engage in a registered public offering or is engaged in any other activity which, in the good
faith determination of the Board, would be adversely affected by the requested registration, then the Company may at its option direct that such request be delayed for a period not in excess of
30 days from the date of such request, such right to delay a request to be exercised by the Company not more than once in any 12-month period. In the event that, in the judgment of
the Company, it is advisable to suspend use of a prospectus included in a registration statement due to pending material developments or other events that have not yet been publicly disclosed and as
to which the Company believes public disclosure would be detrimental to the Company, the Company shall notify all selling stockholders to such effect, and, upon receipt of such notice, each such
selling stockholder shall immediately discontinue any sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to such registration statement until such selling stockholder has received copies of a supplemented or
amended prospectus or until such selling stockholder is advised in writing by the Company that the then current prospectus may be used and has received copies of any additional or supplemental filings
that are incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference in such prospectus. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Company shall not exercise its rights under the foregoing sentence to
suspend sales of Registrable Securities for a period in excess of 30 days consecutively or 60 days in any 365-day period. 


        1.1.3.    Payment of Expenses.    The Company shall pay all reasonable expenses of holders of Registrable Securities
incurred in connection with the first three registrations of Registrable Securities requested pursuant to this Section 1.1 (including the reasonable fees and expenses of a single legal counsel
representing all selling stockholders), other than underwriting discounts and commissions, if any, and applicable transfer taxes, if any. 



        1.1.4.    Additional Procedures.    In the case of a registration pursuant to Section 1.1.2, whenever the
Initiating Holders shall request that such registration shall be effected pursuant to an underwritten offering, the Company shall include such information in the written notices to holders of
Registrable Securities referred to in Section 1.1.2. In such event, the right of any holder of Registrable Securities to have securities owned by such holder included in such registration
pursuant to this Section 1.1.1 shall be conditioned upon such holder's participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such holder's Registrable Securities in the 




2





 





underwriting
(unless otherwise mutually agreed upon by the Majority Participating Holders and such holder). If requested by the underwriters of such registration, the Company, together with the
holders of Registrable Securities proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting, will enter into an underwriting agreement with such underwriters for such offering containing such
representations and warranties by the Company and such holders and such other terms and provisions as are customarily contained in underwriting agreements with respect to secondary distributions,
including, without limitation, customary indemnity and contribution provisions (subject, in each case, to the limitations on such liabilities set forth in this Agreement). 




        1.2    Piggyback Registration Rights.    



        1.2.1    General.    Each time the Company proposes to register any of its securities under the Securities Act on a
form which would permit registration of Registrable Securities for sale to the public, for its own
account and/or for the account of any holders of Registrable Securities or Affiliate of a holder of Registrable Securities (pursuant to Section 1.1 or otherwise), for sale in a Public Offering,
the Company will give notice to all holders of Registrable Securities of its intention to do so. Any such holder may, by written response delivered to the Company within 20 days after the
effectiveness of such notice, request that all or a specified part of the Registrable Securities held by such holder of the same type of Registrable Securities to be so registered by the Company be
included in such registration. The Company thereupon will use its reasonable efforts to cause to be included in such registration under the Securities Act all such Registrable Securities which the
Company has been so requested to register by such holders, to the extent required to permit the disposition (in accordance with the methods to be used by the Company or other holders of its securities
in such Public Offering) of the Registrable Securities to be so registered. No registration of Registrable Securities effected under this Section 1.2 shall relieve the Company of any of its
obligations to effect registrations of Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 1.1. The Company may withdraw or suspend any registration covered by this Section 1.2 at any time
(subject, in the case of any registration also covered by Section 1.1, to any limitations set forth therein). 


        1.2.2.    Excluded Transactions.    The Company shall not be obligated to effect any registration of Registrable
Securities under this Section 1.2 incidental to the registration of any of its securities in connection with: 



        (a)   Any
Public Offering relating to employee benefit plans or dividend reinvestment plans; or 


        (b)   Any
Public Offering relating to the acquisition or merger after the date hereof by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of or with any other businesses. 




        1.2.3.    Payment of Expenses.    The Company shall pay all reasonable fees and expenses of a single legal counsel
representing any and all holders of Registrable Securities incurred in connection with the first three registrations of Registrable Securities requested pursuant to this Section 1.2. 


        1.2.4.    Additional Procedures.    Holders of Registrable Securities participating in any Public Offering pursuant to
this Section 1.2 shall take all such actions and execute all such documents and instruments that are reasonably requested by the Company to effect the sale of their Registrable Securities in
such Public Offering, including, without limitation, being parties to the underwriting agreement entered into by the Company and any other selling securityholders in connection therewith and being
liable in respect of the representations and warranties by, and the other agreements (including without limitation customary selling 




3





 





securityholder
representations, warranties, indemnifications and "lock-up" agreements) for the benefit of the underwriters; provided,
however, that (a) with respect to individual representations, warranties, indemnities and agreements of selling holders of Registrable Securities in such Public
Offering, the aggregate amount of such liability shall not exceed such holder's net proceeds from such offering and (b) to the extent selling holders of Registrable Securities give further
representations, warranties and indemnities, then with respect to all other representations, warranties and indemnities of sellers of securities in such Public Offering, the aggregate amount of such
liability shall not exceed the lesser of (i) such holder's pro rata portion of any such liability, in accordance with such holder's portion of the total number of Registrable Securities
included in the offering or (ii) such holder's net proceeds from such offering. 




        1.3.    Certain Other Provisions.    



        1.3.1.    Underwriter's Cutback.    In connection with any registration of Registrable Securities, the underwriter may
determine that marketing factors (including, without limitation, an adverse effect on the per share offering price) require a limitation of the number of Registrable Securities to be underwritten.
Notwithstanding any contrary provision of Section 1.1 or Section 1.2, and subject to the terms of this Section 1.3.1, the underwriter may limit the number of securities which
would otherwise be included in such registration by excluding any or all Registrable Securities from such registration (it being understood that the number of securities which the Company seeks to
have registered in such registration shall not be subject to exclusion, in whole or in part, under this Section 1.3.1). Upon receipt of notice from the underwriter of the need to reduce the
number of securities to be included in the registration, the Company shall advise all holders of the Company's securities that would otherwise be registered and underwritten pursuant hereto, and the
number of such securities, including Registrable Securities, that may be included in the registration shall be allocated in the following manner, unless the underwriter shall determine that marketing
factors require a different allocation: (i) securities, other than Registrable Securities, requested to be included in such registration by securityholders shall be excluded unless
(x) the Company has, prior to the date hereof, or after the date hereof with the consent of the Majority Holders, granted registration rights which are to be treated on an equal basis with
Registrable Securities for the purpose of the exercise of the underwriter cutback (with it being specifically agreed and acknowledged that the registration rights granted to Silicon Valley Bank
pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, dated on or around December 30, 2002, between the Company and Silicon Valley Bank are to be treated on an equal basis with Registrable Securities
for the purposes of this underwriting cutback), or (y) such securities are issued in connection with a Permitted Exchange (as defined in the Securities Exchange Agreement), with it being
specifically acknowledged that the registration rights granted to the holders of any such securities are to be treated on an equal basis with Registrable Securities for purposes of this underwriting
cutback; and (ii) if further limitation on the number of securities to be included in the offering is required, the number of Registrable Securities and other securities that may be included in
such registration shall be allocated among holders thereof in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective amounts of securities which each securityholder requested be registered in such
registration. No securities excluded from the underwriting by reason of the underwriter's marketing limitation shall be included in such registration. Upon delivery of a written request that
Registrable Securities be included in an underwritten offering pursuant to Section 1.1.1 or Section 1.2.1, the holder thereof may not thereafter (i) elect to withdraw therefrom
without the written consent the Company and the Majority Participating Holders, or (ii) exchange, convert or exercise, as the case may be, such Registrable Securities.

        1.3.2.    Registration Procedures.    If and in each case when the Company is required to use its reasonable best
efforts to effect a registration of any Registrable Securities as provided in Section 1.1 or Section 1.2, the Company shall take appropriate and customary actions in furtherance thereof,
including, without limitation: 



        (a)   promptly
filing with the Commission a registration statement and using best efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective; 


        (b)   preparing
and filing with the Commission such amendments and supplements to such registration statements as may be required to comply with the Securities Act and to keep
such registration
statement effective for a period not to exceed 270 days from the date of effectiveness or such earlier time as the Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement shall have been
disposed of in accordance with the intended method of distribution therefor or the expiration of the time when a prospectus relating to such registration is required to be delivered under the
Securities Act; provided, however, that if the registration is effected by the filing of a registration statement on Form S-3, then
the Company shall keep such registration statement effective for a period not to exceed 3 years from the date of effectiveness or such earlier time as the Registrable Securities covered by such
registration statement have been disposed of in accordance with the intended method of distribution therefore, the expiration of the time when a prospectus relating to such registration is required to
be delivered under the Securities Act, or such registration statement no longer covers Registrable Securities; 


        (c)   using
its best efforts to register or qualify such Registrable Securities under the state securities or "blue sky" laws of such jurisdictions as the sellers shall
reasonably request; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to file any general consent to service of process or to qualify as a
foreign corporation in any jurisdiction in which it is not so qualified or to subject itself to taxation in respect of doing business in any jurisdiction in which it would not otherwise be so subject;
and 


        (d)   otherwise
cooperating reasonably with, and taking such customary actions as may reasonably be requested by the holders of Registrable Securities in connection with, such
registration. 




        1.3.3.    Selection of Underwriters and Counsel.    The underwriters and legal counsel to be retained in connection
with any Public Offering shall be selected by the Board or, in the case of an offering following a request therefor under Section 1.1.1, the Initiating Holders with the consent of the Company
(which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). 


        1.3.4.    Lock-Up.    Without the prior written consent of the underwriters managing any Public Offering,
for a period beginning seven days immediately preceding and ending on the 90th day following the effective date of the registration statement used in connection with such offering, no holder of
Commonwealth Warrants (whether or not a selling securityholder pursuant to such registration statement) representing (on an as-exercised basis) at least 1% of the outstanding Common Stock
shall (a) offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, lend, or
otherwise transfer, directly or indirectly, any shares of Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for such Common Stock or (b) enter into any swap or
other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of Common Stock, whether any such transaction described in clause (a) or
(b) above is to be settled by delivery of such Common Stock or such other securities, in cash or otherwise; provided, however, that the foregoing
restrictions shall not apply to (i) the sale of Commonwealth Warrants pursuant to any such registration statement filed in accordance with Section 1.1 or Section 1.2;
(ii) transactions 




5





 





relating
to shares of Common Stock or other securities acquired in open market transactions; or (iii) the exercise, conversion or exchange of Commonwealth Warrants or conversions of shares of
Common Stock into other classes of Common Stock without change of holder. 



        1.3.5.    Future Registration Rights.    If, after the date hereof, the Company enters into an agreement or other
commitment with any other Person that has the effect of establishing registration rights with respect to the Company's securities the terms of which are more favorable, taken as a whole, to such
Person than the registration rights established in favor of the holders of Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 1.1 or Section 1.2, then the Company will promptly so notify such
holders in writing, and the Company shall, without the necessity of any action on the part of such holders, extend the benefits of such more favorable terms to such holders as if such terms were
contained in this Agreement, or permit such holders to enter into such other agreement establishing such rights in lieu of this agreement. 




        1.4.    Indemnification and Contribution.    



        1.4.1.    Indemnities of the Company.    In the event of any registration of any Registrable Securities or other debt
or equity securities of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 1.1, Section 1.2 or otherwise, and in connection with any registration
statement or any other disclosure document produced by or on behalf of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries including, without limitation, reports required and other documents filed under the
Exchange Act, and other documents pursuant to which any debt or equity securities of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries are sold (whether or not for the account of the Company or its
Subsidiaries), the Company will, and hereby does, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries, jointly and severally, to indemnify and hold harmless each seller of Registrable Securities, any Person who
is or might be deemed to be a controlling Person of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries within the meaning of section 15 of the Securities Act or section 20 of the Exchange Act, their
respective direct and indirect partners, advisory board members, directors, officers, trustees, members and stockholders, and each other Person, if any, who controls any such seller or any such
controlling Person within the meaning of section 15 of the Securities Act or section 20 of the Exchange Act (each such person being referred to herein as a
"Covered Person"), against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof), joint or several, to which such
Covered Person may be or become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any other securities or other law of any jurisdiction, the common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims,
damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained or
incorporated by reference in any registration statement under the Securities Act, any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus included therein, or any related summary prospectus, or any amendment
or supplement thereto, or any document incorporated by reference therein, or any other such disclosure document (including without limitation reports and other documents filed under the Exchange Act
and any document incorporated by reference therein) or other document or report, (ii) any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company or any of its subsidiaries of any federal, state, foreign or common law rule
or regulation applicable to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and relating to action or inaction in connection with any such registration, disclosure document or other document or report, and
will reimburse such Covered Person for any legal or any other reasonable expenses incurred by it in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability, action or
proceeding; provided, however, that neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall be liable to any Covered Person in any such case to the extent
that any such loss, claim, damage, liability, 




6





 


action
or proceeding arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in such registration statement, preliminary prospectus, final
prospectus, summary prospectus, amendment or supplement, incorporated document or other such disclosure document or other document or report, in reliance upon and in conformity with written
information furnished to the Company or to any of its Subsidiaries through an instrument duly executed by such Covered Person specifically stating that it is for use in the preparation thereof. The
indemnities of the Company and of its subsidiaries contained in this Section 1.4.1 shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Covered
Person and shall survive any transfer of securities. 


        1.4.2.    Indemnities to the Company.    The Company and any of its Subsidiaries may require, as a condition to
including any securities in any registration statement filed pursuant to this Agreement, that the Company and any of its Subsidiaries shall have received an undertaking satisfactory to it from the
prospective seller of such securities, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and any of its Subsidiaries, each director of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, each officer of the Company or
any of its Subsidiaries who shall sign such registration statement and each other Person (other than such seller), if any, who controls the Company and any of its Subsidiaries within the meaning of
section 15 of the Securities Act or section 20 of the Exchange Act and each other prospective seller of such securities with respect to any statement in or omission from such
registration statement, any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus included therein, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any other disclosure document (including,
without limitation, reports and other documents filed under the Exchange Act or any document incorporated therein) or other document or report, if such statement or omission was made in reliance upon
and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries through an instrument executed by such seller specifically stating that it is for use in the preparation
thereof. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any such director, officer or controlling
Person and shall survive any transfer of securities. 


        1.4.3.    Contribution.    If the indemnification provided for in Section 1.4.1 or Section 1.4.2 hereof
is unavailable to a party that would have been entitled to indemnification pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 1.4 (an
"Indemnitee") in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each
party that would have been an indemnifying party thereunder shall, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnitee, contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnitee as a result of such losses,
claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of such indemnifying party on the one hand and such
Indemnitee on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof). The relative fault
shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to
information supplied by such indemnifying party or such Indemnitee and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.
The parties agree that it would not be just or equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 1.4.3 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does
not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the preceding sentence. The amount paid or payable by a contributing party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or
actions or proceedings in respect thereof) referred to above in this Section 1.4.3 shall include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnitee in connection with 




7





 





investigating
or defending any such action or claim. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to
contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. 


        1.4.4.    Limitation on Liability of Holders of Registrable Securities.    The liability of each holder of Registrable
Securities in respect of any indemnification or contribution obligation of such holder arising under this Section 1.4 shall not in any event exceed an amount equal to the net proceeds to such
holder (after deduction of all underwriters' discounts and commissions) from the disposition of the Registrable Securities disposed of by such holder pursuant to such registration. 




        1.5    Reports Under Exchange Act.    In order to provide to the holders of Registrable Securities the benefits of
Rule 144 and any other rule or regulation of the Commission that may at any time permit any such holder to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration, and in order to
make it possible for the holders of Registrable Securities to register the sale of the Registrable Securities pursuant to a registration on Form S-3, the Company agrees to: 




        (a)   make
and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144; 


        (b)   take
such action, including the registration of its Common Stock under section 12 of the Exchange Act, as is necessary to enable the holders of Registrable
Securities to utilize Form S-3 for the sale of their Registrable Securities (ignoring, for this purpose, the provisions of Items I.A.5 and I.B.3 of the General Instructions
thereto); 


        (c)   file
with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act; and 



        (d)   furnish
to any holder of Registrable Securities, so long as the holder owns any Registrable Securities, forthwith upon request (i) a written statement by the
Company that it has complied with the reporting requirements of Rule 144, the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, or that it qualifies as a registrant whose securities may be resold in a
secondary offering pursuant to Form S-3; (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company filed with the Commission and such other reports and
documents so filed by the Company; and (iii) such other information as may be reasonably requested in availing any holder of Shares any rule or regulation of the Commission which permits the
selling of any such securities without registration or pursuant to such form.

5.    Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction: Waiver of Jury Trial.    This Agreement shall be deemed to be
a contract made under the laws of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts and for all purposes shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of said Commonwealth, without regard to

remedy accruing to any party as a result of any breach or default by any other party under this Agreement shall impair any such right, power or remedy, nor shall it be construed as a waiver of or
acquiescence in any such breach or default, or of any similar breach or default occurring later; nor shall any such delay, omission or waiver of any single breach or default be deemed a waiver of any
other breach or default occurring before or after that waiver.
