This Agreement and any claims or disputes arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to conflicts of laws principles that would result in the application of the Law of any other state or jurisdiction; provided that matters involving (a) the implementation of the Merger in accordance with the Bermuda Companies Act or appraisal proceedings thereunder, (b) any action asserting a claim for breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any director, officer, employee or agent of the Company to the Company or its shareholders, (c) any action asserting a claim arising pursuant to any provision of the Bermuda Companies Act or the Company Governing Documents or (d) any action asserting a claim governed by the internal affairs doctrine, in each case, shall be governed by the laws of Bermuda.
Section 6.07.    Jurisdiction.  Each of the parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York or, in the event that the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York lacks subject matter jurisdiction, to any court of competent jurisdiction sitting in the State and County of New York, and the respective appellate courts from the foregoing (all of the foregoing, collectively, the “New York Courts”), in respect of any claim or dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment relating thereto (in each case, except to the extent any such action or proceeding mandatorily must be brought in Bermuda).  Each of the parties irrevocably and unconditionally (i) agrees that any claim in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in the applicable New York Court, (ii) waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such action or proceeding in the applicable New York Court, and (iii) waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in the applicable New York Court, in each case, except to the extent any such action or proceeding mandatorily must be brought in Bermuda.  Each of the parties agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law.  Each party irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 6.12.  Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to serve process in any other manner permitted by Law.
Section 6.08.    WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.  EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.  EACH PARTY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (A) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE EITHER OF SUCH WAIVERS, (B) IT UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF SUCH WAIVERS, (C) IT MAKES SUCH WAIVERS VOLUNTARILY AND (D) IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 6.08.







Section 6.09.    Counterparts; Effectiveness.  This Agreement may be signed manually or by facsimile or other electronic transmission by the parties (including in .pdf, .tiff, .jpg or similar format), in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument.  This Agreement shall become effective when each party hereto shall have received counterparts hereof signed by all of the other parties hereto.  Until and unless each party has received a counterpart hereof signed by the other party hereto, this Agreement shall have no effect and no party shall have any right or obligation hereunder (whether by virtue of any other oral or written agreement or other communication).
Section 6.10.    Severability.  If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by rule of Law or public policy, all other terms and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect.  Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, then (a) the parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible to the fullest extent permitted by Law and (b) the remainder of this Agreement and the application of that provision to other Persons or circumstances shall not be affected by such invalidity or unenforceability, nor shall such invalidity or unenforceability affect the validity or enforceability of that provision, or the application of that provision, in any other jurisdiction.
Section 6.11.    Specific Performance.  The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur if any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with the terms hereof and that the non-breaching party shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement or to enforce specifically the performance of the terms hereof, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity.  Each party hereto agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief on the basis that (a) the other party has an adequate remedy at law or (b) an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or equity.

All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given if delivered personally (notice deemed given upon receipt), by electronic mail (notice deemed given upon confirmation of receipt) or sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier service, such as Federal Express (notice deemed given upon receipt of proof of delivery), to the parties at the following addresses (or at such other address for a party as shall be specified by like notice):
