7.2           Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in two or more counterparts, any one of which need not contain the signatures of
more than one party, but all such counterparts taken together will constitute one and the same Agreement. This Agreement, to the
extent delivered by means of a facsimile machine or electronic mail (any such delivery, an “Electronic Delivery”),
shall be treated in all manner and respects as an original agreement or instrument and shall be considered to have the same binding
legal effect as if it were the original signed version thereof delivered in person. At the request of any party hereto, each other
party hereto shall re-execute original forms hereof and deliver them in person to all other parties. No party hereto shall raise
the use of Electronic Delivery to deliver a signature or the fact that any signature or agreement or instrument was transmitted
or communicated through the use of Electronic Delivery as a defense to the formation of a contract, and each such party forever
waives any such defense, except to the extent such defense related to lack of authenticity.

 

7.3           Headings.
The headings of this Agreement are for convenience of reference and shall not form part of, or affect the interpretation of, this
Agreement.

 

7.4           Severability.
If any provision of this Agreement is prohibited by law or otherwise determined to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent
jurisdiction, the provision that would otherwise be prohibited, invalid or unenforceable shall be deemed amended to apply to the
broadest extent that it would be valid and enforceable, and the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision shall not affect
the validity of the remaining provisions of this Agreement so long as this Agreement as so modified continues to express, without
material change, the original intentions of the parties as to the subject matter hereof and the prohibited nature, invalidity or
unenforceability of the provision(s) in question does not substantially impair the respective expectations or reciprocal obligations
of the parties or the practical realization of the benefits that would otherwise be conferred upon the parties. The parties will
endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s) with a valid provision(s),
the effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s).

7.5           Entire
Agreement; Amendments. This Agreement supersedes all other prior oral or written agreements between the Holder, the Company,
their affiliates and persons acting on their behalf with respect to the matters discussed herein, and this Agreement (together
with the other Transaction Documents), contains the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the matters covered herein
and, except as specifically set forth herein, neither the Company nor the Holder makes any representation, warranty, covenant or
undertaking with respect to such matters. No provision of this Agreement may be amended other than by an instrument in writing
signed by the Parties, and any amendment to this Agreement made in conformity with the provisions of this Section shall be binding
upon the parties. No provision hereof may be waived other than by an instrument in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement
is sought.

 

7.6           Survival.
The representations and warranties contained herein shall survive the Closing and the delivery of the Exchange Consideration.

 

7.7           Notices.
