and decision to sell the Repurchase Shares to the Buyer based upon such information as such Seller deems appropriate.

 

(d)                                 None of the Buyer, its Representatives or any other Person has made any representation or warranty, express or implied, except as expressly set forth herein, regarding any aspect of the sale and purchase of the Repurchase Shares or the Buyer’s business, financials, prospects, projections, operations, technology, assets, liabilities, results of operations, financial condition, budgets, estimates or operational metrics or any other matter, or as to the accuracy or completeness of any of the information (including any statement, document or agreement delivered pursuant to the Transaction Documents and any financial statements and any projections, estimates or other forward-looking information) provided or otherwise made available to the Sellers or their Representatives.

 

(e)                                  The Buyer and its Representatives may possess material non-public information not known by a Seller regarding or relating to the Buyer, including information concerning the Buyer’s business, financials, prospects, projections, operations, technology, assets, liabilities, results of operations, financial condition, budgets, estimates or operational metrics or any other matter.

 

(f)                                   Such Seller is aware that (i) the Transaction Documents, (ii) the Offering, (iii) the Transactions and (iv) future changes and developments in (A) the Buyer’s business and financial condition and operating results, (B) the industries in which the Buyer competes and (C) overall market and economic conditions, may have a favorable impact on the value of the Repurchase Shares on or after the date of this Agreement.

 

(g)                                  To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, none of the Buyer, any of its Representatives or any other Person shall have any liability or responsibility whatsoever to such Seller or any of its Representatives on any basis (including in contract or tort, under federal or state securities laws or otherwise) based upon any information provided or made available, or statements made (or any omissions therefrom), to such Seller or any of its Representatives, except as and only to the extent expressly set forth in this Agreement.

 

(h)                                 Such Seller has had a full and complete opportunity to consult legal, tax and business advisors and has in fact consulted such advisors with respect to this Agreement and any matters contemplated hereunder.

 

Section 5.2                                    Release, Discharge and Waiver.

 

(a)                                 Effective from and after the Initial Closing Date, each Seller, for itself and its Representatives (including Sean Traynor) and their respective heirs, successors and assigns (together, the “Releasors”), hereby irrevocably, absolutely and unconditionally forever releases and discharges, and covenants not to sue, the Buyer or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates and their respective future, present or past Representatives and their respective successors and assigns (together, the “Releasees”), from and with respect to any and all claims, rights, causes of action, suits, obligations, debts, demands, liabilities, controversies, costs, expenses, fees or damages of any kind, in law or in equity, which such Releasor has ever had, now has or which such Releasor can, shall or may have, against a Releasee, whether directly, indirectly,

derivatively, representatively or in any other capacity, foreseen or unforeseen, matured or unmatured, known or unknown, fixed or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, including those which are based upon, arise from or in any way relate to or involve, directly or indirectly, any Releasor’s, direct or indirect, purchase, investment and ownership of the Repurchase Shares, Company Options, Restricted Shares or any other shares of Common Stock owned by a Seller or any of its affiliates (including Restricted Shares), directly or indirectly, as of the date of this Agreement or any Closing Date, including any service on the Board and any committee thereof; provided, that the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.2 shall not prevent a Seller from participating in any damages award,  recovery or other remedy that is (i) not based on a claim, suit, demand, complaint or proceeding brought, directly or indirectly, by a Seller or its Representatives and (ii) available to shareholders of the Buyer generally with respect to any action, event, circumstance, omission, matter or thing first occurring after the date of this Agreement and arising from such Seller’s beneficial ownership of Seller Shares, which Seller Shares are not at such time Repurchase Shares; provided, further, that, for clarity, the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.2 shall not operate as a release or discharge of any claim by Sean Traynor or Thomas Scully for indemnification in accordance with Section 8 of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Buyer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, but subject to Section 5.1, nothing contained in this Section 5.2 shall constitute any release, discharge or waiver to the extent that the applicable claims, rights, causes of action, suits, obligations, debts, demands, liabilities, controversies, costs, expenses, fees or damages arise out of a breach of this Agreement by the Buyer.  EACH SELLER IS AWARE THAT IT MAY HEREAFTER DISCOVER FACTS IN ADDITION TO OR DIFFERENT FROM THOSE IT NOW KNOWS OR BELIEVES TO BE TRUE WITH RESPECT TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THE RELEASE PROVIDED FOR IN THIS Section 5.2; HOWEVER, IT IS THE INTENTION OF EACH SELLER THAT SUCH RELEASE BE EFFECTIVE AS A FULL AND FINAL ACCORD AND SATISFACTORY RELEASE OF EACH AND EVERY MATTER SPECIFICALLY OR GENERALLY REFERRED TO IN THIS Section 5.2.  IN FURTHERANCE OF SUCH INTENTION, THE RELEASES GIVEN HEREIN SHALL BE AND REMAIN IN EFFECT AS FULL AND COMPLETE GENERAL RELEASES OF ALL SUCH MATTERS, NOTWITHSTANDING THE DISCOVERY OR EXISTENCE OF ANY ADDITIONAL OR DIFFERENT CLAIMS OR FACTS RELATIVE THERETO.

 

(b)                                 Effective from and after the Initial Closing Date, the Buyer, for itself and its Representatives (together, the “Buyer Releasors”), hereby irrevocably, absolutely and unconditionally forever releases and discharges, and covenants not to sue, each Seller (including Sean Traynor) and any of their subsidiaries or affiliates and their respective future, present or past Representatives and their respective successors and assigns (together, the “Seller Releasees”), from and with respect to any and all claims, rights, causes of action, suits, obligations, debts, demands, liabilities, controversies, costs, expenses, fees or damages of any kind, in law or in equity, which such Buyer Releasor has ever had, now has or which such Buyer Releasor can, shall or may have, against a Seller Releasee, whether directly, indirectly, derivatively, representatively or in any other capacity, foreseen or unforeseen, matured or unmatured, known or unknown, fixed or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, including those which are based upon, arise from or in any way relate to or involve, directly or indirectly, any Seller’s, direct or indirect, purchase, investment and ownership of the Repurchase Shares, Company Options, Restricted Shares or any other shares of Common Stock owned by a Seller or any of its affiliates (including Restricted Shares), directly or indirectly, as of the date of this 

 

11











 

Agreement or any Closing Date, including any service on the Board and any committee thereof; provided, that the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.2 shall not operate as a release or discharge of any claim or counterclaim of the Buyer related to any action or omission of the Sellers in connection with the first proviso in Section 5.2(a). Notwithstanding the foregoing, but subject to Section 5.1, nothing contained in this Section 5.2 shall constitute any release, discharge or waiver to the extent that the applicable claims, rights, causes of action, suits, obligations, debts, demands, liabilities, controversies, costs, expenses, fees or damages arise out of a breach of this Agreement by any Seller.  THE BUYER IS AWARE THAT IT MAY HEREAFTER DISCOVER FACTS IN ADDITION TO OR DIFFERENT FROM THOSE IT NOW KNOWS OR BELIEVES TO BE TRUE WITH RESPECT TO THE SUBJECT  MATTER OF THE RELEASE PROVIDED FOR IN THIS Section 5.2; HOWEVER, IT IS THE INTENTION OF THE BUYER THAT SUCH RELEASE BE EFFECTIVE AS A FULL AND FINAL ACCORD AND SATISFACTORY RELEASE OF EACH AND EVERY MATTER SPECIFICALLY OR GENERALLY REFERRED TO IN THIS Section 5.2.  IN FURTHERANCE OF SUCH INTENTION, THE RELEASES GIVEN HEREIN SHALL BE AND REMAIN IN EFFECT AS FULL AND COMPLETE GENERAL RELEASES OF ALL SUCH MATTERS, NOTWITHSTANDING THE DISCOVERY OR EXISTENCE OF ANY ADDITIONAL OR DIFFERENT CLAIMS OR FACTS RELATIVE THERETO.

 

(c)                                  Each of the parties to this Agreement represents and warrants that it has not heretofore transferred or assigned, or purported to transfer or assign, to any Person any claims, rights, causes of action, suits, obligations, debts, demands, liabilities, controversies, costs, expenses, fees or damages herein released. Each of the parties represents and warrants that neither it nor any assignee has filed any lawsuit against the other.

 

Section 5.3                                    Further Assurances.  At each Closing, Buyer shall take all actions that may be reasonably necessary and do all things reasonably requested to facilitate electronic delivery of the applicable Repurchase Shares through the Depository Trust Company Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian system, including causing all letters of instruction, opinions of counsel or other documentation that may be required by the Buyer’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”) to facilitate the Closings to be delivered by the Buyer or its Representatives prior to the applicable Closing to the Transfer Agent.

 

Section 5.4                                    Amendment; Waiver. This Agreement may not be amended, modified or supplemented in any manner, whether by course of conduct or otherwise, except by an instrument in writing specifically designated as an amendment hereto, signed by or on behalf of each party. No failure or delay of any party in exercising any right or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such right or power, or any course of conduct, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power.  The rights and remedies of the parties hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies which they would otherwise have hereunder.  Any agreement on the part of any party to any such waiver shall be valid only if set forth in a written instrument executed and delivered by a duly authorized officer or other authorized Representative on behalf of such party.

Section 5.5                                    Fees and Expenses.  All fees and expenses incurred in connection with or related to the Transaction Documents and the Transactions shall be paid by the party incurring such fees or expenses, whether or not such transactions are consummated.

 

Section 5.6                                    Governing Law.  This Agreement and all disputes or controversies arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Transactions shall be governed by, and construed and interpreted in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of laws.

 

Section 5.7                                    Consent to Jurisdiction; Service of Process.  The parties hereto irrevocably agree that any suit, action or proceeding seeking to enforce any provision of, or based on any matter arising out of or in connection with, the Transaction Documents or the Transactions shall be brought exclusively in federal or state courts located in the state of New York, and each of the parties hereby irrevocably consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts (and of the appropriate appellate courts therefrom) in any such suit action or proceeding and 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.  Each of the parties agrees not to commence any action, suit or proceeding relating thereto except in the courts described above in New York, other than actions in any court of competent jurisdiction to enforce any judgment, decree or award rendered by any such court in New York as described herein.  Each of the parties further agrees that notice as provided herein shall constitute sufficient service of process and the parties further waive any argument that such service is insufficient.  Each of the parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion or as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to the Transaction Documents or the Transactions, (a) any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the courts in New York as described herein for any reason, (b) that it or its property is exempt or immune from jurisdiction of any such court or from any legal process commenced in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise) and (c) that (i) the suit, action or proceeding in any such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, (ii) the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper or (iii) the Transaction Documents, or the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced in or by such courts.

 

Section 5.8                                    WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.  EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES  ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS.

 

Section 5.9                                    Severability; Invalidity or Unenforceability. Whenever possible, each provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law but if any provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability will not affect any other provision or portion of any provision in such jurisdiction, and this Agreement will be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or 

 

13











 

unenforceable provision or portion of any provision had never been contained herein, so long as the economic and legal substance of the Transactions are not affected in a manner materially adverse to any party hereto.

 

Section 5.10                             Assignment; Successors.  Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement may be assigned or delegated, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise, by any party without the prior written consent of the other parties to this Agreement, and any such assignment without such prior written consent shall be null and void.  Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the parties and their respective successors and assigns.

 

Section 5.11                             Interpretation.  When a reference is made in this Agreement to a Section, Article, Schedule, Exhibit or Annex such reference shall be to a Section, Article, Schedule, Exhibit or Annex of or to this Agreement unless otherwise indicated.  The headings and other captions in this Agreement are for convenience and reference only and shall not be used in interpreting, construing or enforcing any of the provisions of this Agreement.  All words used in this Agreement will be construed to be of such gender or number as the circumstances require.  The word “including” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement will mean “including, without limitation,” unless otherwise specified. The word “or” shall be disjunctive but not exclusive.  The parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as jointly drafted by the parties, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provision of the Agreement.

 

Section 5.12                             No Third-Party Beneficiaries.  Other than as set forth in Section 5.2 and Section 5.10, nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any Person other than the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns any legal or equitable right, benefit or remedy of any nature under or by reason of this Agreement.

 

Section 5.13                             Enforcement.  The parties to this Agreement agree that irreparable damage would occur if any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached.  It is accordingly agreed that the parties to this Agreement shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in any federal court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan in the City and State of New York or other court of the United States as specified in Section 5.7, this being in addition to any other remedy at law or in equity, and the parties to this Agreement hereby waive any requirement for the posting of any bond or similar collateral in connection therewith. The parties acknowledge and agree that each party hereto shall be entitled to an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, this being 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.

Section 5.19                             Treatment of Awards.

 

(a)                                 Each option to acquire shares of Common Stock held by a Seller or any of its affiliates that was issued by the Buyer (each, a “Company Option”) that is outstanding immediately before the Initial Closing and that is not then exercisable or vested, by virtue of the Initial Closing and without any action by the Buyer or the holder of that Company Option, shall be cancelled and terminated at the Closing without payment or consideration therefor and the holder of such Company Option shall have no rights whatsoever with respect thereto.

 

(b)                                 Each Company Option that is outstanding immediately before the Initial Closing and is then exercisable and vested, shall by virtue of the Initial Closing and without any action by the Buyer or the holder of that Company Option, shall be cancelled and converted at the Initial Closing into the right to receive from the Buyer at the Closing an amount in cash, without interest, that is equal to the excess, if any, of the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of the Initial Closing over the per share exercise or purchase price of the applicable Company Option (the “Exercise Price”), multiplied by the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock in respect of such Company Option immediately before the Closing.

 

(c)                                  If the Exercise Price of a Company Option is equal to or exceeds the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of the Initial Closing, such Company Option shall be cancelled and terminated at the Closing without payment or consideration therefor and the holder of such Company Option shall have no rights whatsoever with respect thereto.

 

(d)                                 Each unvested share of restricted Common Stock, including performance shares held by a Seller or any of its affiliates (each, a “Restricted Share”), that is outstanding immediately prior to the Initial Closing by virtue of the Initial Closing and without any action by the Buyer or the holder of that Restricted Share, shall be cancelled.  Each other equity award held by a Seller or any of its affiliates, if any, existing as of immediately before the Initial Closing, by virtue of the Initial Closing and without any action by the Buyer or the holder of that equity award, shall be cancelled.

 

Section 5.20                             Filings and Announcements. The Buyer may issue a press release and may file a Current Report on Form 8-K with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) to announce the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the purchase by the Buyer of the Repurchase Shares and will include a copy of this Agreement as an exhibit to such Form 8-K. No Seller will make any public announcement or issue a press release regarding the Transactions without the prior written consent of the Buyer.

16











 

of (i) six months following the date of this Agreement and (ii) such time as the Sellers no longer beneficially own any of the Seller Shares.
