suit, action or proceeding brought by any party to enforce any provision of, or based on any matter arising out of or in connection with, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be brought exclusively in the Court of Chancery of
the State of Delaware or, if such court lacks subject matter jurisdiction, the state or federal courts in the State of Delaware. Each of the parties hereto submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of any such court in any suit, action or proceeding
seeking to enforce any provision of, or based on any matter arising out of, or in connection with, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and hereby irrevocably waives the benefit of jurisdiction derived from present or future
domicile or otherwise in such action or proceeding. Each party hereto irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding in
any such court or that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. 

Section 4.09.    WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. TO THE EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW THAT CANNOT BE WAIVED,
EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. 

Section 4.10.    Specific Performance. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage may occur if any
provision of this Agreement is not performed in accordance with the terms hereof and that the parties shall be entitled to seek an injunction or

Section 4.08, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. 

Section 4.11.    No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Nothing in this Agreement shall confer any rights upon any
Person other than the parties hereto and each such party’s respective permitted successors and assigns. 

Section 4.12.    Notices. All notices and other communications in connection with this Agreement shall be in
