(c)     all Liabilities relating to or arising out of the Purchased Assets solely to the extent
arising (in whole or in part, but if in part, only to the extent of such part) after the Closing.


 


For the avoidance of doubt, the fact that a Liability
may be excluded under one clause of this ‎Section 2.02 does not imply that it is not intended to be included under another
clause.


 


Section 2.03    Excluded Liabilities. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement
to the contrary, Buyer shall not assume or be liable for hereunder any Liabilities of Seller other than the Assumed Liabilities, and Seller
shall retain and be responsible for all other Liabilities of Seller (other than the Assumed Liabilities), including the following (collectively,
the “Excluded Liabilities”):


 


(a)   any and all Liabilities for Taxes (i) of or imposed on Seller (or any member or Affiliate
of Seller) or (ii) related or attributable to (but solely to the extent related or attributable to) the Purchased Assets or the Business
for any Pre-Closing Tax Period (including any Taxes with respect to a Straddle Period allocated to Seller pursuant to ‎‎‎‎Section 7.04(a));


 


(b)   any indebtedness for borrowed money, bank loans or facilities or any other debt instruments
of Seller, other than accounts payable or accrued expenses of Seller with respect to the Business incurred or accrued in the ordinary
course of business;


 


(c)   all Liabilities related to any Action to the extent relating to the ownership or operation
of the Purchased Assets or the Business prior to the Closing Date;


 


(d)   all Liabilities under the Assumed Contracts arising prior to the Closing Date to the extent
relating to the period prior to the Closing Date; 


 


(e)   all Liabilities arising under or relating to any Excluded Asset; and


 


(f)    any brokerage, commission, finders or similar fees, which is payable in connection with
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or otherwise, pursuant to any arrangement entered into by Seller or any Affiliate thereof.


 


Section 2.04    Excluded Assets. Notwithstanding anything contained in ‎Section 2.01
to the contrary, Seller is not selling, and Buyer is not purchasing, any assets other than those specifically listed or described in ‎Section 2.01
(including the Excluded Contracts, such assets that are not Purchased Assets, the “Excluded Assets”). For the avoidance
of doubt, all Intellectual Property of Seller that is not Purchased Intellectual Property is excluded from the Purchased Assets.


 


Section 2.05    Assignment of Contracts and Rights.


 


(a)    Schedule 2.05(a) sets forth a list of all Assumed Contracts to which Seller is party
and that Buyer intends to have Seller assume and assign to Buyer on the Closing Date, together with the applicable Cure Costs, if any,
for each such Assumed Contract as reasonably estimated in good faith by Seller. At any time prior to the date that is twenty-one (21)
days prior to the Closing Date, Buyer may, by written notice to Seller, designate in writing any
Contract related to the Business not designated as an Assumed Contract and, upon such designation, such Assumed Contract will constitute
a Purchased Asset and will be conveyed to Buyer under, and in accordance with the terms of, this Agreement at Closing (and, if applicable,
will cease to constitute an Excluded Asset). All Contracts of Seller which do not constitute Assumed Contracts or which otherwise cannot
be assumed and assigned to Buyer shall not be considered Purchased Assets and shall automatically be deemed Excluded
Contracts.


 






    	 	9	 



     


    

 


(b)   Seller shall use its reasonable best efforts to assign, or cause to be assigned, the Assumed
Contracts to Buyer so long as Buyer pays all Cure Costs associated with the assumption and assignment of such Assumed Contracts. If Buyer
does not pay all Cure Costs associated with the assignment and assumption of an Assumed Contract, it shall become an Excluded Contract.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Seller shall not be obligated to assume and assign any such Contract pursuant to this
Section 2.05 with respect to which Buyer fails to pay any Cure Costs or to satisfy the Bankruptcy Court as to adequate assurance
of future performance. 


 


(c)   Except as to Assumed Contracts assigned pursuant to Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code,
this Agreement shall not constitute an agreement to assign any Purchased Asset or any right thereunder if an attempted assignment, without
the consent of a third party or Governmental Authority (each, a “Transfer Consent”), would constitute a breach or in
any way adversely affect the rights of Buyer or Seller thereunder. If such Transfer Consent is not obtained or such assignment is not
attainable pursuant to Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, to the extent permitted and subject to any approval of the Bankruptcy Court
that may be required, Seller and Buyer will reasonably cooperate in a mutually agreeable arrangement (at Buyer’s sole cost and expense)
under which Buyer would obtain the benefits and assume the obligations thereunder in accordance with this Agreement.


 


(d)   At Closing, (i) Seller shall, pursuant to the Sale Order and the Assignment and Assumption
Agreement, assume and assign, or cause to be assigned, to Buyer each of the Assumed Contracts that is capable of being assumed and assigned
and the consideration for which is included in the Purchase Price, (ii) Buyer shall pay promptly all Cure Costs in connection with such
assumption and assignment, and (iii) Buyer shall assume and perform and discharge the Assumed Liabilities under the Assumed Contracts,
pursuant to the Sale Order and the Assignment and Assumption Agreement.


 


(e)   To the extent that Buyer makes a valid designation with respect to any Contract pursuant
to Section 2.05(a), the applicable exhibits and schedules to this Agreement will be deemed to have automatically been updated (without
action of any Party or Person) to reflect such designation. If Buyer exercises its rights in clause (a) above to designate a Contract
as an Assumed Contract or an Excluded Contract, as applicable, then the Parties acknowledge and agree that there will be no reduction
in, or increase to, the Purchase Price as a result of such designation or change in designation; provided, however, that
such designation may increase or decrease (as applicable) the extent of the Assumed Liabilities, Purchased Assets and/or Excluded Contracts.



 


(f)    Buyer shall reimburse Seller for the remaining portion of the pre-paid Dash Hudson
subscription fee and enter into a new subscription services agreement with Dash Hudson Inc. for the remainder of the term, as more particularly
described on Schedule 2.05(a).


 


Section 2.06   Purchase Price. On the terms and subject to the conditions contained herein,
the purchase price (the “Purchase Price”) for the Purchased Assets shall consist of (a) an amount in cash that, when
combined with the Cash Consideration as defined in, and payable under, that certain Second Amended and Restated Asset Purchase Agreement,
by and among Centric Brands LLC and Joe’s Holdings LLC, dated as of October 28, 2021 (the “Joe’s APA”),
equals $48,500,000 (the “Cash Consideration”) and (b) the assumption of the Assumed Liabilities.


 






    	 	10	 



     


    

 


Section 2.07   Purchase Price Allocation. No later than thirty (30) days prior to the
Closing Date, Seller shall deliver to Buyer a schedule allocating the Purchase Price (and any adjustments thereto as determined for U.S.
federal income tax purposes) among the Purchased Assets and Assumed Liabilities (the “Allocation Schedule”). The Allocation
Schedule shall be prepared in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code. The Allocation Schedule shall be deemed final unless Buyer notifies
Seller in writing that Buyer objects to one or more items reflected in the Allocation Schedule within fifteen (15) Business Days after
delivery of the Allocation Schedule to Buyer. In the event of any such objection, Buyer and Seller shall negotiate in good faith to resolve
such dispute. If Buyer and Seller reach an agreement regarding the Allocation Schedule, the Parties shall file all Tax Returns, including
Form 8594 (Asset Acquisition Statement under Code Section 1060), in a manner consistent with the Allocation Schedule and shall not take
any position inconsistent therewith upon examination of any Tax Return, in any Tax refund claim, in any Action related to Taxes, or otherwise
unless otherwise required by applicable Law. If Buyer and Seller are unable to reach a timely resolution of any dispute regarding the
Allocation Schedule, each of the Parties shall be entitled to adopt its own position regarding the Allocation Schedule and to report the
federal, state and local income and other Tax consequences of the purchase and sale contemplated hereby in a manner consistent with its
own position regarding the Allocation Schedule.


 


Section 2.08   Good Faith Deposit.


 


(a)   No later than one (1) Business Day following the date of this Agreement, Buyer shall deposit
(or cause to be deposited) in a trust account maintained on behalf of Seller (and to be designated by Seller prior to the date hereof)
cash in an amount that, when combined with the Good Faith Deposit as defined in, and payable under, the Joe’s APA, equals
$4,850,000 (the “Good Faith Deposit”) to be held in escrow in accordance with the terms
of this Agreement, to be released as provided in Section 2.08(b).


 


(b)   If the Closing occurs, the Good Faith Deposit (and any interest accrued thereon) shall be
transferred to and retained by Seller at the Closing as a credit against the Closing Cash Consideration.
If this Agreement is terminated in accordance with the terms hereof, the Good Faith Deposit (together with any interest accrued thereon)
shall be treated in the manner set forth in ‎Section 10.02(b).


 


Section 2.09  Closing. The closing (the “Closing”) of the purchase
and sale of the Purchased Assets and the assumption of the Assumed Liabilities hereunder shall take place remotely by conference call
and by exchange of signature pages by email or fax as soon as possible following entry of the Sale Order, but in no event later than three
(3) Business Days, after satisfaction of the conditions set forth in ‎Article 8, or at such other time or place as Buyer
and Seller may agree in writing. At the Closing:


 


(a)    Buyer shall deliver to Seller: 


 






    	 	11

Deposit as set forth in ‎Section 2.08(b)) plus,
if applicable, any amounts contemplated to be paid to Seller by Section
4.07, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, to the bank account(s) designated
in writing by Seller at least one (1) day prior to the Closing
Date; 


 


(ii)  one or more assignment and assumption agreements, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit

each case duly executed by Buyer;


 


(v)   each other Transaction Document to which Buyer is a party, duly executed by Buyer; and


 


(vi)    such other assignments and other good and sufficient instruments of assumption and transfer,
in form satisfactory to Buyer and Seller, as Seller may reasonably request to transfer and assign the Purchased Assets and Assumed Liabilities
to Buyer.

Seller shall not be required to provide access to, or otherwise furnish, any information if Seller determines, in its reasonable discretion,
that (i) such access would be reasonably likely to jeopardize any attorney-client or other similar privilege, (ii) such access would contravene
any applicable Laws, fiduciary duty or binding agreement entered into prior to the date of this Agreement, (iii) the information to be
accessed is pertinent to any existing or potential litigation between Seller or any of their Affiliates, on the one hand, and Buyer or
any of its Affiliates, on the other hand or (iv) any information, guidance or advice received by Seller and
its Affiliates related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything in this ‎Section 5.02

and notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Buyer shall not have access to personnel records of Seller relating to
individual performance or evaluation records, medical histories or other information related to employees of Seller. 


 


(c)    At and following the Closing, Seller may retain copies of the books and records or any other
materials included, in the Purchased Assets to the extent Seller determines, in its sole discretion, that Seller (i) should retain them
to comply with applicable Law or (ii) may require such copies for Tax purposes.


 


Section 5.03  Update of Disclosure Schedules. Until the Closing Date, Seller may deliver
any new schedules or supplement or amend the Disclosure Schedules with respect to any matter that, if existing, occurring or known as
of the date hereof, would have been required to be set forth or described in the Disclosure Schedules. Any such supplement or amendment
shall be deemed to modify the Disclosure Schedules for purposes of this Agreement, except to the extent that, absent such modification(s)
to the Disclosure Schedules, Seller would then be in breach of the representations, warranties, covenants or other agreements contained
herein such that the condition to Closing set forth in ‎‎‎‎Section 8.02(a) would not then be satisfied; provided,
however, that if the matter being disclosed in such supplement or amendment relates to any of the Buyer’s Licenses, and Buyer
had knowledge of such matter as of the date of this Agreement, such supplement or amendment shall modify the Disclosure Schedules for
all purposes of this Agreement.

with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (c) the receipt of any notice or other communication from any Person alleging

(a)     Allocation of Straddle Period Taxes.


 


(i)   For purposes of this Agreement, in order to apportion appropriately any Taxes relating to a taxable period beginning before
and ending after the day immediately prior to the Closing Date (a “Straddle Period”), the amount of Taxes that are
allocable to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on and including the day immediately prior to the Closing Date shall be:


 


(A)  in the case of Taxes imposed on a periodic basis with respect to the business or assets of a Seller (such as ad valorem
and property Taxes) and exemptions, allowances or deductions that are calculated on an annual basis, such as depreciation, the amount
of such Taxes, exemptions, allowances or deductions for the entire Straddle Period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is
the number of calendar days in the portion of the Straddle Period ending on and including the Closing Date, and the denominator of which
is the number of calendar days in the entire Straddle Period (provided that any Tax exemption or allowance with respect to an annual
period shall be pro-rated on an equal daily basis between the pre-Closing Tax period and the remainder of the Straddle Period); and


 


(B)   in the case of all other Taxes, determined on a “closing of the books basis” as if the taxable period ended
on the Closing Date.


 


(b)    Tax Cooperation. The Parties shall furnish or cause to be furnished to each other,
upon request, and at the sole cost of the requesting Party, as promptly as practicable, such information and assistance relating to the
Purchased Assets as is reasonably necessary for the filing of Tax Returns and the preparation for, or the prosecution or defense of, any
audit, claim, demand, proposed adjustment or deficiency relating to Taxes, and any other matter or proceeding relating to Taxes.


 


Section 7.05    Misallocated Assets. If, following the Closing, Buyer or its Affiliates

their respective Affiliates to transfer, such Purchased Asset as soon as practicable to Buyer or an Affiliate designated by Buyer.

Section 7.06    Payments from Third Parties after Closing.


 


(a)    The Parties acknowledge and agree that accounts receivable and other receivables arising
under or pursuant to any Assumed Contract (“Receivables”) that relate to any period prior to the Closing Date
are Excluded Assets. From and after the Closing, with respect to Receivables that relate to any period prior to the Closing Date, (i)
to the extent that such Receivables are paid to and actually collected by Buyer or any of its Affiliates, Buyer shall promptly remit,
or cause its Affiliates to promptly remit to Seller such payments in accordance with Section 7.06(b), and (ii) in furtherance of
the foregoing, (A) Seller and its Affiliates shall be entitled to initiate or proceed with any collection efforts with respect to such
pre-Closing Receivables directly from any past or present licensee.


 


(b)    In the event that Seller receives any payment from a third party (other than Buyer or any of its Affiliates) after the Closing
Date pursuant to any of the Assumed Contracts (or with respect to the operation by Buyer of the Business or any Purchased Asset after
the Closing) and to the extent such payment is not made in connection with an Excluded Asset or an Excluded Liability, Seller shall forward
such payment, as promptly as practicable but in any event within thirty (30) days after such receipt, to Buyer (or other entity nominated
by Buyer in writing to Seller) and notify such third party to remit all future payments (in each case, to the extent such payment is in
respect of any post-Closing period with respect to the Business and is not in respect of an Excluded Asset or an Excluded Liability) pursuant
to the Assumed Contracts to Buyer (or such other entity). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in the event that
Buyer or any of its Affiliates receives any payment from a third party after the Closing on account of, or in connection with, any Excluded
Asset (which includes, for the avoidance of doubt, any Receivables of the Business with respect to any pre-Closing period), Buyer shall
forward such payment, as promptly as practicable but in any event within thirty (30) days after such receipt, to Seller (or other entity
nominated by Seller in writing to Buyer) and notify such third party to remit all future payments on account of or in connection with
the Excluded Assets to Seller (or such other entity as Seller may designate). For the avoidance of doubt, following the Closing, any fees,
payments or other amounts payable to the Seller by the Buyer in its capacity as licensee under the Buyer’s Licenses that relate
to the provision of any license thereunder prior to the Closing and that remain unpaid as of the Closing shall be paid by Buyer to the
Seller as promptly as practicable.


 


Section 7.07  Bulk Transfer Laws. The Parties intend that pursuant to section 363(f)
of the Bankruptcy Code, the transfer of the Purchased Assets shall be free and clear of any security interests in the Purchased Assets,
including any liens or claims arising out of the bulk transfer Laws, and the Parties shall take such steps as may be necessary or appropriate
to so provide in the Sale Order. In furtherance of the foregoing, each Party hereby waives compliance by the other Parties with the “bulk
sales,” “bulk transfers” or similar Laws and all other similar Laws in all applicable jurisdictions in respect of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(b)   Debtors and Buyer shall cooperate in good faith to obtain the Bankruptcy Court’s entry
of the Sale Order and any other Order reasonably necessary in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including
furnishing affidavits, nonconfidential financial information, or other documents or information for filing with the Bankruptcy Court and
making such advisors of Debtors and Buyer and their respective Affiliates available to testify before the Bankruptcy Court for the purposes
of, among other things, providing adequate assurances of performance by Buyer as required under Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, and
demonstrating that Buyer is a “good faith” purchaser under Section 363(m) of the Bankruptcy Code. Buyer agrees that it will
promptly take such actions as are reasonably requested by Seller to assist in obtaining entry of the Bid Procedures Order, the Sale Order,

have asserted Encumbrances on the Purchased Assets and all non-debtor parties to the Assumed Contracts, and other appropriate notice as
required by the Bankruptcy Rules and the local rules of the Bankruptcy Court, including such additional notice as the Bankruptcy Court
shall direct or as Buyer may reasonably request, and provide appropriate opportunity for hearing, to all parties entitled thereto, of
all motions, orders, hearings or other proceedings in the Bankruptcy Court relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated
hereby. Debtors shall be responsible for making all appropriate filings relating to this Agreement with the Bankruptcy Court.


 


(d)     In the event the entry of the Sale Order or any other Orders of the Bankruptcy Court relating
to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be appealed by any Person (or if any petition for certiorari or motion
for reconsideration, amendment, clarification, modification, vacation, stay, rehearing or reargument shall be filed with respect to the
Sale Order or other such Order), the Parties shall each use commercially reasonable efforts to defend such appeal. 


 


(e)     The Debtors and Buyer acknowledge that this Agreement and the transactions contemplated
hereby are subject to (i) entry of the Sale Order and (ii) the consideration by the Debtors and Seller of higher or better competing bids
(whether through any and all types of consideration, including, without limitation, cash, assumed liabilities or credit bid) in respect
of a sale, reorganization, or other disposition of the Debtors or Seller, the Business or the Purchased Assets. In the event of any discrepancy
between this Agreement and the Bid Procedures Order and the Sale Order, the Bid Procedures Order and the Sale Order shall govern.


 


(f)      Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, from the date hereof until
the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, Buyer agrees and acknowledges that Seller, Debtors and their Affiliates, including
through their representatives, are and may continue soliciting and/or responding to inquiries, proposals or offers from third parties
in connection with any Alternative Transaction, including, without limitation, inquiries, proposals or offers related to the Purchased
Assets, and may facilitate (and perform any and all other acts related thereto), including, without limitation, furnishing any information
(subject to entering into a customary confidentiality agreement) with respect to, any effort or attempt by any Person to seek to do any
of the foregoing in connection with an Alternative Transaction. 


 






    	 	25	 



     


    

 


(g)   The Sale Order shall, among other things, (i) approve, pursuant to sections 105, 363, and
365 of the Bankruptcy Code, (A) the execution, delivery and performance by Seller of this Agreement, (B) the sale of the Purchased Assets
to Buyer on the terms set forth herein and free and clear of all Encumbrances (other than Encumbrances included in the Assumed Liabilities
and Permitted Encumbrances), and (C) the performance by Debtors of their respective obligations under this Agreement; (ii) authorize and
empower Seller to assume and assign to Buyer the Assumed Contracts; (iii) find that Buyer is a “good faith” buyer within the
meaning of section 363(m) of the Bankruptcy Code, find that Buyer is not a successor to any Seller, and grant Buyer the protections of
section 363(m) of the Bankruptcy Code; (iv) find that Buyer shall have no Liability or responsibility for any Liability or other obligation
of Seller arising under or related to the Purchased Assets other than as expressly set forth in this Agreement, including successor or
vicarious Liabilities of any kind or character, including any theory of antitrust, successor, or transferee Liability, labor law, de facto
merger, or substantial continuity; (v) find that Buyer has provided adequate assurance (as that term is used in section 365 of the Bankruptcy
Code) of future performance in connection with the assumption of the Assumed Contracts; and (vi) find that Buyer shall have no Liability
for any Excluded Liability.


 


(h)    Debtors shall comply with the Milestones.


 


(i)     If an Auction is conducted, and Buyer is not the Successful Bidder at the Auction but is
the next highest bidder after the Successful Bidder at the Auction, Buyer shall serve as a Backup Bidder and keep its bid to consummate
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement (as the same may be improved upon
in the Auction) open and irrevocable, notwithstanding any right of Buyer to otherwise terminate this Agreement pursuant to ‎Article 10
hereof, until the earlier of (i) the Backup Bid Expiration Date (as defined in the Bid Procedures) or (ii) the first Business Day after
the closing of a transaction with a Successful Bidder for the Purchased Assets that is not Buyer; provided, however, that
if prior to the Backup Bid Expiration Date, a Successful Bidder for the Purchased Assets that is not Buyer fails to consummate its transaction
as a result of a breach or failure to perform on the part of such Successful Bidder, or because a condition in such Successful Bidder’s
purchase agreement cannot otherwise be met, and the purchase agreement with such Successful Bidder is terminated, Buyer (as the Backup
Bidder) will be deemed to have the new prevailing bid, and Seller will be authorized, without further order of the Bankruptcy Court, to,
and Buyer (as the Backup Bidder) shall, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, consummate the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement by the later of (x) ten (10) days of becoming the Successful Bidder and (ii) the Backup Bid Expiration Date, on the
terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement (as the same may be improved upon in the Auction).

(f)       by either Seller or Buyer upon the conversion of any of Seller’s Chapter 11 Cases
to cases under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code, the dismissal of any of Seller’s Chapter 11 Cases, or if a trustee or examiner
with expanded powers to operate or manage the financial affairs of Seller is appointed;


 


(g)      by either Seller or Buyer, if the Bankruptcy Court enters a final, non-appealable order
that precludes the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement;


 


(h)      by either Seller or Buyer, if any court of competent jurisdiction or other competent Governmental
Authority shall have enacted or issued a Law or decree or taken any other action permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting
the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and such Law or decree or other action shall have become final and
non-appealable; provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this ‎Section 10.01(h)
shall not be available to a Party if the failure to consummate the Closing because of such action by a Governmental Authority shall be
due to the failure of such Party to have fulfilled, in any material respect, any of its obligations under this Agreement;


 


(i)       by either Seller or Buyer, if the Bankruptcy Court enters an order approving an Alternative
Transaction with one or more Persons other than Buyer;


 


(j)       by Seller, if Seller or its board of directors (or similar governing body), based on the
advice of counsel, reasonably determines that proceeding with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or failing to terminate
this Agreement would be inconsistent with its or such Person’s or body’s fiduciary duties or applicable law; or


 


(k)      by Buyer, in the event of the termination of the JJ Asset Purchase Agreement (as defined above).


 


The Party desiring to terminate
this Agreement pursuant to this ‎Section 10.01 (other than pursuant to ‎Section 10.01(a)) shall give written
notice of such termination to the other Party in accordance with ‎Section 11.01.

which shall survive such termination of this Agreement and (ii) no Party (nor any stockholder, director, officer, employee, agent, consultant
or representative of any such Party) shall thereafter have any Liability hereunder; provided, nothing in this ‎Section 10.02

or 10.02(b).

If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to any provision of ‎‎Section 10.01

(a)     Any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived if, but only if, such amendment
or waiver is in writing and is signed by each of Buyer and Seller. 


 


(b)     No failure or delay by any Party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall

upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and assigns. Buyer, on the one hand, may not assign, delegate
or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of Seller, and Seller, on

Section 11.04     
Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance
with the Laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the conflicts of law rules of such State.


 


Section 11.05     
Jurisdiction. Without limiting any Party’s right to appeal any order
of the Bankruptcy Court, (i) the Bankruptcy Court will retain exclusive jurisdiction to enforce the terms of this Agreement and to
decide any claims or disputes which may arise or result from, or be connected with, this Agreement, any breach or default hereunder, or
the transactions contemplated hereby, and (ii) any and all proceedings related to the foregoing will be filed and maintained only
in the Bankruptcy Court, and the Parties hereby consent to and submit to the jurisdiction and venue of the Bankruptcy Court for such purposes
and will receive notices at such locations as indicated in Section 11.01; provided, however, that if the Chapter
11 Cases have been closed pursuant to Section 350 of the Bankruptcy Code, the Parties agree to unconditionally and irrevocably submit
to the exclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, or in the event (but only
in the event) that such court does not have subject matter jurisdiction over such Action, in the Supreme Court of the State of New York,
New York County, for the resolution of any such claim or dispute. The Parties hereby irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent permitted
by applicable Law, any objection which they may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such Action brought in such court
or any defense of inconvenient forum for the maintenance of such dispute. Each of the Parties agrees that a judgment in any such dispute
may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law. Process in any such Action may
be served on any party anywhere in the world, whether within or without the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court, the United States District
Court for the District of New York or any state court of the State of New York. Without limiting the foregoing, each Party agrees that
service of process on such Party as provided in ‎Section 11.01 shall be deemed effective service of process on such Party.


 


Section 11.06     
WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. TO THE EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW THAT
CANNOT BE WAIVED, EACH PARTY HEREBY WAIVES, AND COVENANTS THAT IT WILL NOT ASSERT (WHETHER AS PLAINTIFF, DEFENDANT OR OTHERWISE), ANY
RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY FORUM IN RESPECT OF ANY ISSUE, CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSES OF ACTION ARISING IN WHOLE OR IN PART UNDER,
RELATED TO, BASED ON OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY ANCILLARY DOCUMENT OR THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF OR THEREOF, WHETHER NOW
EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING AND WHETHER SOUNDING IN TORT OR CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE. ANY PARTY HERETO MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART
OR A COPY OF THIS SECTION 11.06 WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF EACH SUCH PARTY TO THE WAIVER OF ITS RIGHT
TO TRIAL BY JURY.


 






    	 	32	 



     


    

 


Section 11.07     
Counterparts; Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement may be signed
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 shall have received a counterpart hereof signed by the other
Party. Delivery of a .pdf version of one or more signatures to this Agreement shall be deemed adequate delivery for purposes of this Agreement.
No other provision of this Agreement is intended to confer upon any Person other than the Parties any rights, benefits, Causes of Action
or remedies hereunder.


 


Section 11.08     
Specific Performance. It is understood and agreed by the Parties that
money damages (even if available) would not be a sufficient remedy for any breach of this Agreement by Seller or Buyer and as a consequence
thereof, Seller and Buyer shall each be entitled to seek specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief as a remedy for
any such breach or threatened breach in addition to any other remedy to which such Party may be entitled in Law or in equity, including
an Order of the Bankruptcy Court or other court of competent jurisdiction requiring Buyer or Seller, as may be applicable, to comply promptly
with any of their obligations hereunder. Each of the Parties agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance
and other equitable relief on the basis that the other Party has an adequate remedy at Law or that any award of specific performance is
not an appropriate remedy for any reason at Law or in equity. Any Party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this
Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not be required to provide any bond or other security
in connection with such Order.


 


Section 11.09     
Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents (together
with the Schedules and Exhibits hereto and thereto), and the Confidentiality Agreements, constitute the entire agreement between the Parties
with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both oral and written, between
the Parties with respect to such subject matter. No Party to this Agreement shall be liable or bound to any other Party in any manner
by any representations, warranties, covenants or agreements relating to such subject matter except as specifically set forth herein and
therein. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises with respect to this Agreement, the terms and provisions
of the execution version of this Agreement will control and prior drafts of this Agreement and the documents referenced herein will not
be considered or analyzed for any purpose (including in support of parol evidence proffered by any Person in connection with this Agreement),
will be deemed not to provide any evidence as to the meaning of the provisions hereof or the intent of the Parties with respect hereto
and will be deemed joint work product of the Parties.


 


Section 11.10     
No Strict Construction. Buyer, on the one hand, and Seller, on the other
hand, participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement, and, in the event an ambiguity or question of intent or
interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as jointly drafted by Buyer, on the one hand, and Seller, on the other hand,
and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any Party by virtue of the authorship of any provision of this
Agreement. Without limitation as to the foregoing, no rule of strict construction construing ambiguities against the draftsperson shall
be applied against any Person with respect to this Agreement.


 


Section 11.11     
Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this
Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms,
provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired
or invalidated so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially
adverse to any Party. Upon such a determination, 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 in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transaction contemplated hereby
be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.


 






    	 	33	 



     


    

 


Section 11.12     
Disclosure Schedules. The representations and warranties of Seller set
forth in this Agreement are made and given subject to the disclosures in the Disclosure Schedules. Where a reference is made only to a
particular disclosed document, the full contents of the document are deemed to be disclosed. Inclusion of information in the Disclosure
Schedules will not be construed as an admission that such information is material to the business, operations of condition (financial
or otherwise) of Seller or their respective businesses, in whole or in part, or as an admission of Liability or obligation of Seller to
any third Person. The specific disclosures set forth in the Disclosure Schedules have been organized to correspond to section references
in this Agreement to which the disclosure is most likely to relate, together with appropriate cross-references when disclosure is applicable
to other sections of this Agreement; provided, however, that any disclosure in any section of the Disclosure Schedules will
apply to and will be deemed to be disclosed in any other section of the Disclosure Schedules, so long as the applicability of such disclosure
is reasonably apparent on its face. It is understood and agreed that the specification of any dollar amount in the representations and
warranties or covenants contained in this Agreement or the inclusion of any specific item in the Disclosure Schedules is not intended
to imply that such amounts or higher or lower amounts, or the items so included or other items, are or are not material, and no Party
or other Person shall use the fact of the setting of such amounts or the fact of the inclusion of any such item in the Disclosure Schedules
in any dispute or controversy as to whether any obligation, item or matter not described in this Agreement or included in the Disclosure
Schedules is or is not material for purposes of this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement (including the Disclosure Schedules) shall be
deemed an admission by either Party or any of its Affiliates, in any Causes of Action, that such Party or any such Affiliate, or any third
party, is or is not in breach or violation of, or in default in, the performance or observance of any term or provisions of any Contract
or Law.
