to the extent of such part) after the Closing; and


 


(d)            any
and all Liabilities for Transfer Taxes, if any.


 


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

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;


 


(c)            all

Liabilities relating to any employee or consultant of Seller or any of its Affiliates, whether arising before, on or following the Closing
Date.


 


Section 2.04     Excluded

Buyer is not purchasing, any assets other than those specifically listed or described in ‎‎‎Section 2.01 (including
the Excluded Contracts and the Excluded Records, 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 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 the Company, 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.


 


(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.


 






    11


     


    

 


(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.


 


Section 2.06     Purchase
Price. On the terms and subject to the conditions contained herein, including the terms of Section 7.06(a), the purchase
price (the “Purchase Price”) for the Purchased Assets shall consist of (a) cash equal to $45,000,000 (the “Cash
Consideration”) and (b) the assumption of the Assumed Liabilities.


 


Section 2.07     [Intentionally
Omitted].


 


Section 2.08     Purchase
Price Allocation. No later than thirty (30) days prior to the Closing Date, Buyer shall deliver to Seller 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 Seller notifies Buyer in writing that Seller objects to one or more
items reflected in the Allocation Schedule within fifteen (15) Business Days after delivery of the Allocation Schedule to Seller. 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.


 






    12


     


    

 


Section 2.09     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 the amount of $4,500,000 (the “Good
Faith Deposit”), to be held in escrow in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and to be released as provided in Section 2.09(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 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 2.10     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 the Company may agree in writing. At the Closing:


 


(a)            Buyer
shall deliver to Seller:


 


(i)            the
Cash Consideration (less the Good Faith Deposit as set forth in ‎‎‎Section 2.09(b) and

expected to become an actual and matured Liability) on their debts as they become absolute and matured); (b) have unreasonably small
capital with which to engage in their respective businesses; or (c) have incurred or plan to incur debts beyond their ability to
repay such debts as they become absolute and matured.

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,

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 Buyer’s License, and Buyer had knowledge of such matter as of the date of this

Payment will be credited to Buyer’s account (and shall reduce the Cash Consideration payable by Buyer at the Closing on a dollar
for dollar basis), until the aggregate amount of the Pre-Closing A/R Payments is equal to $268,598 (the “Pre-Closing A/R Threshold”).
At the Closing, solely to the extent that the aggregate amount of the Pre-Closing A/R Payments is less than the Pre-Closing A/R Threshold

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

pre-Closing period), Buyer shall forward such payment, as promptly as practicable but in any event within thirty (30) days after such

the avoidance of doubt, following the Closing, any fees, payments or other amounts payable to the Seller by the Buyer in its capacity

similar Laws and all other similar Laws in all applicable jurisdictions in respect of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Parties shall use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to have (i) the Bankruptcy Court enter the Bid Procedures Order
as promptly as practicable after the filing of the Bid Procedures Motion and (ii) the Bankruptcy Court enter the Sale Order as promptly
as practicable after the completion of the Auction but, in any event, in each case in compliance with the Milestones. Debtors and Buyer
shall cooperate in good faith to obtain the Bankruptcy Court’s entry of the Bid Procedures Order, 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

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, and any other
Order reasonably necessary, consistent with the above.

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

appropriate filings relating to this Agreement with the Bankruptcy Court, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to submit such
filings to Buyer no less than two Business Days prior to their filing with the Bankruptcy Court for Buyer’s prior review and comment,
which comments the Debtors shall consider and attempt to incorporate in good faith, in consultation with Buyer.


 


(d)            In
the event the entry of the Bid Procedures Order, 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 Bid Procedures Order,
the Sale Order or other such Order), Debtors shall 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, as applicable,
the Bid Procedures Order and 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; provided,
however, that nothing in this Section ‎‎‎7.08(e) shall limit the rights of Buyer hereunder
in the event that any Bid Procedures Order or any Sale Order does not comply with the terms of this Agreement.


 


(f)            During
the period commencing on the date hereof and ending on the earlier of (i) the date of entry of the Bid Procedures Order or (ii) the
date this Agreement is terminated as provided in Article 10, Seller will not, nor will it permit any of its Affiliates or
anyone acting on behalf of any of them to, solicit, negotiate or enter into any discussions or negotiations with any Person (other than
Buyer or its representatives) in connection with any Alternative Transaction; provided that Seller shall be permitted to furnish
or cause to be furnished to any Person any information concerning the Purchased Assets or the Business. Seller shall, immediately upon
the execution of this Agreement, cease any and all ongoing discussions with any other potential purchaser of all or any portion of the
Purchased Assets and/or the Business and shall cause its representatives and Affiliates and their respective representatives to do the
same. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, from the date of entry of the Bid Procedures Order and 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. Seller shall promptly notify Buyer of receipt by Debtors or any of their representatives of any such inquiries,
proposals or offers; provided that, as to any inquiries, proposals or offers received prior to entry of the Bid Procedures Order,
Seller shall provide Buyer with a copy of any such inquiries, proposals or offers within two (2) Business Days of receipt by the
Debtors or their representatives.

(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).

consummation of a sale to the “Successful Bidder” or “Next Highest Bidder” at the Auction or (z) the date
that is forty-five (45) days following such termination by wire transfer(s) in immediately available funds to one or more bank accounts

the Expense Reimbursement shall constitute allowed superpriority Administrative Expense Claims pursuant to sections 105(a), 503(b), and
507(a)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code with priority over all other administrative expenses of the kind specified in section 503(b) of

that to the extent this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Article 10 hereof, the Parties’ rights with respect
to the impact of the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases on Buyer’s License as of the date of termination of this Agreement are
reserved, and nothing in this Agreement shall be considered a waiver of any rights, claims, arguments and defenses with respect thereto.

Article 10


 


TERMINATION


 


Section 10.01     Grounds
for Termination. This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing:


 


(a)            by
mutual written agreement of Seller and Buyer;


 


(b)            by
either Seller or Buyer, if the Closing shall not have been consummated on or before November 30, 2021 (the “End Date”);
provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this ‎‎‎Section 10.01‎(b) shall
not be available to a Party whose breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained herein has been
the primary cause of the failure of the Closing to occur on or before the End Date;


 


(c)            by
either Seller or Buyer, if at the end of the Auction for the Purchased Assets (if any), Buyer is not determined by the Debtors to be either
the “Successful Bidder” or “Next-Highest Bidder” (each as defined in the Bid Procedures Order);


 


(d)            by
Seller, if Seller is not then in material breach of its obligations under this Agreement and Buyer breaches or fails to perform any of
its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement and such breach or failure to perform (i) would
prevent the satisfaction of a condition set forth in ‎‎‎Section 8.01 or ‎‎‎Section 8.03,
(ii) cannot be, or has not been, cured within ten (10) Business Days following delivery of written notice to Buyer of such breach
or failure to perform and (iii) has not been waived by Seller;


 






    32


     


    

 


(e)            by
Buyer, if Buyer is not then in material breach of its obligations under this Agreement and Seller breaches or fails to perform any of
its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement and such breach or failure to perform (i) would
prevent the satisfaction of a condition set forth in ‎‎‎Section 8.01 or ‎‎‎Section 8.02,
(ii) cannot be, or has not been, cured within ten (10) Business Days following delivery of written notice to the Company of
such breach or failure to perform and (iii) has not been waived by Buyer;


 


(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
Buyer, if any of the Milestones are not met; or


 


(k)            by
Seller, if Seller or its board of directors (or similar governing body), based on the advice of counsel, 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.


 


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.


 


Section 10.02     Effect
of Termination.


 


(a)            If
this Agreement is terminated as permitted by ‎‎‎Section 10.01, (i) this Agreement shall become
null and void and of no further force and except, except for the provisions of Sections 2.09, ‎‎‎6.01,
‎‎‎7.09, ‎‎‎10.03, ‎‎‎Article 11
and this ‎‎‎Section 10.02, 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 shall be deemed to release
any Party from any Liability (x) for any breach of any covenants contained in this Agreement occurring prior to its termination and
(y) that may otherwise be provided in, or contemplated by, the provisions of ‎‎‎Section 2.09
or 10.02(b).


 






    33


     


    

 


(b)            If
this Agreement is terminated pursuant to ‎‎Section 10.01(d), the Good Faith Deposit (together with any
interest accrued thereon) shall be retained by Debtors for their own account as damages, and the Parties acknowledge and agree that such
payment of the Good Faith Deposit to Debtors shall constitute liquidated damages (and not a penalty) and shall be the sole and exclusive
remedy of Seller and any other Person against Buyer and its Affiliates arising under this Agreement in connection with any such termination,
and upon payment of the Good Faith Deposit to the Debtors, neither seller nor any other Person shall be entitled to bring or maintain
any other Action against Buyer or any of its Affiliates and neither Buyer nor any of its Affiliates shall have any further liability or
obligation to Seller arising out of this Agreement, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any matters forming the basis of
such termination. The Parties acknowledge and agree that (i) the agreements contained in this Section 10.01(b) are
an integral part of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and (ii) in light of the difficulty of accurately determining
actual damages with respect to the foregoing, the right to any such receipt of the Good Faith Deposit constitutes a reasonable estimate
of the damages that will compensate Seller in the circumstances in which such fee is payable for the efforts and resources expended and
the opportunities forgone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation
of the transactions contemplated hereby. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to any provision of ‎‎Section 10.01
(other than ‎‎‎‎Section 10.01(d)), Debtors shall promptly (but in any event within two (2) Business
Days of such termination) return the Good Faith Deposit (together with any interest accrued thereon) to Buyer by wire transfer of immediately
available funds.


 


Section 10.03     Costs
and Expenses. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, including as set forth in ‎‎‎Section 10.02(b) whether
or not the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated, all costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement
shall be paid by the Party incurring such cost or expense; provided, however, that all Cure Costs shall be paid by Buyer.

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

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

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

ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF EACH SUCH PARTY TO THE WAIVER OF ITS RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.

Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the

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 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

Confidentiality Agreement, constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof

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

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.


 


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.
