      the
      Company nor any Subsidiary has made any payments in respect of such judgment;
      (iii) no Person has begun to exercise any rights or remedies with respect to

      prior to the Accounts Payable Decrease Date, so long as such default does not
      provide any Person with, or result in any Person having, any rights, remedies
      or
      recourse against the Company or any Subsidiary.

     

    8. Avoidance

      Company or any of the Included Subsidiaries of any of their respective

      words in the singular or plural include the singular and plural and pronouns

      the
      masculine, feminine and neuter, and the use of the word “including” in this
      Agreement shall be by way of example rather than limitation. The language used
      in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to
      express their mutual intent, and no rules of strict construction will be applied
      against any party. Time is of the essence with respect to the performance by
      the
      Company and each of the Included Subsidiaries of each of their respective
      covenants and agreements herein set forth.

     

    14. Governing
      Law; Jurisdiction; Jury Trial.
      All
      questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation
      of this Agreement shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of New
      York, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision
      or
      rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdiction) that would
      cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State
      of
      New York. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction
      of
      the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York, borough of
      Manhattan, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection
      herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein, and
      hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or
      proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction
      of
      any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an
      inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is
      improper. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process
      and
      consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by
      mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address for such notices to it
      under
      this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient
      service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed
      to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law.
      EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE, AND AGREES NOT
      TO
      REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR IN
      CONNECTION HEREWITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION
      CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

    15. Counterparts.
      This
      Agreement may be executed in two or more identical counterparts, all of which
      shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when
      counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to each other party.
      In
      the event that any signature to this Agreement or any amendment hereto is
      delivered by facsimile transmission or by e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format
      data file, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the
      party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same
      force and effect as if such facsimile or “.pdf” signature page were an original
      thereof. No party hereto shall raise the use of a facsimile machine or e-mail
      delivery of a “.pdf” format data file to deliver a signature to this Agreement
      or any amendment hereto or the fact that such signature was transmitted or
      communicated through the use of a facsimile machine or e-mail delivery of a
      “.pdf” format data file as a defense to the formation or enforceability of a
      contract, and each party hereto forever waives any such defense.

     

    16. Section
      Headings.
      The
      section headings herein are for convenience of reference only, and shall not
      affect in any way the interpretation of any of the provisions
      hereof.

     

    17. Merger.
      This
      Agreement, the Security Agreement, the Pledge Agreement, the Trademark Security
      Agreement, the Copyright Security Agreement, the Purchase Agreement (as amended
      hereby) and the other Transaction Documents entered into on or prior to the
      date
      hereof represent the final agreement of each of the parties hereto with respect
      to the matters contained herein and may not be contradicted by evidence of
      prior
      or contemporaneous agreements, or prior or subsequent oral agreements, among
      any
      of the parties hereto.

     

    18. Reaffirmation.
      Each
      of
      the Company and the Included Subsidiaries as issuer, debtor, grantor, pledgor,
      mortgagor, guarantor or assignor, or in other any other similar capacity in
      which such Person grants Liens or security interests in its property or
      otherwise acts as accommodation party or guarantor, as the case may be, hereby
      (i)
      acknowledges and agrees that it has reviewed this Agreement,
      the
      Security Agreement, the Pledge Agreement, the Trademark Security Agreement
      and
      the Copyright Security Agreement, (ii)
      ratifies
      and reaffirms
      all of its obligations, contingent or otherwise, under each of the Transaction
      Documents, including the Purchase Agreement (as amended hereby), to which it
      is
      a party (after giving effect hereto), and (iii) to the extent such Person
      granted Liens on or security interests in any of its property pursuant to any
      such Transaction Document as security for or otherwise guaranteed the
      Liabilities or Obligations under or with respect to the Transaction Documents,
      ratifies and reaffirms such guarantee and grant of security interests and Liens
      and confirms and agrees that such security interests and Liens hereafter secure
      all of the Liabilities and Obligations as amended hereby. Each of the Company
      and the Included Subsidiaries hereby consents to this Agreement and acknowledges
      that each of
      the
      Transaction Documents, including the Purchase Agreement (as amended
      hereby),
      remains
      in full force and effect and is hereby ratified and reaffirmed.
