In connection with the performance of the Services under this Agreement, FGM shall use reasonable efforts to comply with the Company’s
internal compliance policies and procedures.


 


(d)
In connection with the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, FGM is not permitted to, and nothing in this Agreement shall
require FGM to, engage in any activities that would cause it to become an “investment adviser” as defined in Section 202(a)(11)
of the Investment Advisers Act, or any successor provision thereto.


 


(e)
While FGM is providing the Services under this Agreement, FGM shall also be permitted to provide services, including services similar
to the Services covered hereby, to any other Persons, including any Affiliates of FGM, but FGM shall not render any services to any other
Person on behalf of the Company or the Subsidiaries except as may be directed by the Board. This Agreement and FGM’s obligation
to provide the Services under this Agreement shall not create an exclusive relationship between FGM and its Affiliates, on the one hand,
and the Company and the Subsidiaries, on the other.


 


Section

The Company shall, and shall cause the Subsidiaries to, do all things reasonably necessary as requested by FGM consistent with the terms

Section
3.3 Other Activities and Competition.

its Affiliates, agents, representatives or employees shall have the right to take for its own account (individually or as a partner or

to the Company and the Subsidiaries shall, in FGM’s reasonable and good faith judgment, be appropriate under the circumstances
and in light of the policies of the Company and the Subsidiaries, such information and recommendations may be different in certain material
respects from the information and recommendations supplied by FGM or any Affiliate of FGM to others.

shall be governed by and interpreted and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the conflicts

Section
12.8 Arbitration; Submission to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial.


 


(a)
Except for injunctive or other equitable relief or as otherwise provided in this Agreement, any and all legal action or proceeding brought
with respect to any of the obligations arising under or relating to this Agreement shall be resolved by binding arbitration in Charlotte,
North Carolina, before three (3) arbitrators independent of the parties and selected in accordance with, and the arbitration shall be
administered by JAMS pursuant to, JAMS’ Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures excluding its optional Arbitration Appeal
procedures. All arbitration proceedings will be closed to the public and confidential, and all records relating thereto will be permanently
sealed, except as necessary to obtain court confirmation of the judgment of the arbitrator, and except as necessary to give effect to
res judicata and collateral estoppel, in which case, all filings with any court shall be sealed to the extent permissible by the court.
Nothing in this Section 12.8(a) is intended to, or shall, preclude a party to the arbitration from communicating with, or making disclosures
to his, her, or its lawyers, tax advisors, auditors and insurers, as necessary and appropriate or from making such other disclosures
as may be required by any applicable law. To the maximum extent permitted by Law, the decision of the arbitrator shall be final and binding
and not be subject to appeal. If a party against whom the arbitrator renders an award fails to abide by such award, the other party may
seek to enforce such award in any court of competent jurisdiction.


 


(b)
Except as provided in Section 12.8(a), each of the Parties submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State
of Delaware, provided that if jurisdiction is not then available in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, then any such legal
action or proceeding may be brought in any federal court located in the State of Delaware and each of the Parties hereby irrevocably
submits to and accepts with regard to any such action or proceeding, for itself and in respect of its property, generally and unconditionally,
the exclusive jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts. Each Party hereby further irrevocably waives any claim that any such courts lack
jurisdiction over such Party, and agrees not to plead or claim, in any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement or the
transactions contemplated hereby brought in any of the aforesaid courts, that any such court lacks jurisdiction over such Party. Each
Party irrevocably consents to the service of process in any such action or proceeding by the mailing of copies thereof by registered
or certified mail, postage prepaid, to such party, at its address for notices set forth in Section 12.5 hereof; such service to become
effective ten (10) days after such mailing. Each Party hereby irrevocably waives any objection to such service of process and further
irrevocably waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any action or proceeding commenced hereunder or under any other documents contemplated
hereby that service of process was in any way invalid or ineffective. The foregoing shall not limit the rights of any Party to serve
process in any other manner permitted by applicable law. The foregoing consents to jurisdiction shall not constitute general consents
to service of process in the State of Delaware for any purpose except as provided above and shall not be deemed to confer rights on any
Person other than the respective Parties.

waives the objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or
relating to this Agreement in any of the courts referred to in this Section 12.8 and hereby further irrevocably waives and agrees not
to plead or claim that any such court is not a convenient forum for any such suit, action or proceeding.

above may, in the discretion of such Party (or its successors or assigns), be enforced in any jurisdiction, to the extent permitted by
applicable law.


 


(c)
The Parties agree that the remedy at law for any breach of this Agreement may be inadequate and that should any dispute arise concerning
any matter hereunder, this Agreement shall be enforceable in a court of equity by an injunction or a decree of specific performance.
Such remedies shall, however, be cumulative and nonexclusive, and shall be in addition to any other remedies which the Parties may have.


 


(d)
Each Party hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any right it may have to a trial by jury in respect of any
litigation as between the Parties directly or indirectly arising out of, under or in connection with this Agreement or the transactions
contemplated hereby or disputes relating hereto. Each Party (i) certifies that no representative, agent or attorney of any other Party
has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such other Party would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce the foregoing waiver
and (ii) acknowledges that it and the other Parties have been induced to enter into this Agreement by, among other things, the mutual
waivers and certifications in this Section 12.8.


 


Section
12.9 Amendment; Waivers. No term or condition of this Agreement may be amended, modified or waived without the prior written consent
of the Party against whom such amendment, modification or waiver will be enforced; provided, that any amendment of Article VII
shall not be effective as to any Party hereto unless, in addition to the above, it is approved by a unanimous vote of the Independent
Directors. Any waiver granted hereunder shall be deemed a specific waiver relating only to the specific event giving rise to such waiver
and not as a general waiver of any term or condition hereof.


 


Section
12.10 Remedies to Prevailing Party. If any action at law or equity is necessary to enforce or interpret the terms of this Agreement,

hereof is illegal, invalid or unenforceable for any reason whatsoever, such illegality, invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect
or impair the validity of the remaining provisions and terms hereof; provided, however, that the provisions governing payment
of the Shared Services Fee described in Article VII hereof are not severable.


 


Section
12.12 Benefits Only to Parties. Except with respect to Indemnitees as provided in Article IX, nothing expressed by or mentioned in
this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to give any Person other than the Parties and their respective successors or permitted
assigns, any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any provision herein contained, this
Agreement and all conditions and provisions hereof being intended to be and being for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Parties and
their respective successors and permitted assigns, and for the benefit of no other Person.
