court or federal court located in the State of Delaware), and that such jurisdiction of such courts with respect thereto shall be exclusive, except solely to the extent that all such courts shall lawfully decline to exercise such jurisdiction. Each

or the other transactions contemplated hereby will be governed by and construed in accordance with the Laws of the State of New York, without regard to the conflict of laws provisions thereof that would cause the laws of another state to apply.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of the parties to this Agreement hereby agrees that it will not bring or support any action, cause of action, claim, cross-claim or third party claim of any kind or description, whether at law or in equity,
whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, against the Lender in any way relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby, including any dispute arising out of or relating in any way to the Debt Commitment Letter, the Fee
Letter, the Debt Financing, or the performance thereof, in any forum other than the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York or any New York State court sitting in the borough of Manhattan in New York City (and, in each
case, appellate courts thereof) and that the provisions of this Section 8.5 relating to the waiver of jury trial shall apply to any such action, cause of action, claim, cross-claim or third party claim. 

(b) EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION

to carry out the intent and purposes of this Agreement. 
 Section 8.8 Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire
agreement and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. 

Section 8.9 Severability. If any provision, including any phrase, sentence, clause, section or subsection, of this Agreement
is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, inoperative or unenforceable for any reason, such circumstances shall not have the effect of rendering such provision in question invalid, inoperative or unenforceable in any other
case or circumstance, or of rendering any other provision herein contained invalid, inoperative or unenforceable to any extent whatsoever. Upon any such determination, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to

Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument. This Agreement shall become effective when each party shall have received a
