Furthermore, during the Lock-Up Period, no Investor will directly or indirectly (1) purchase, agree to purchase, contract to purchase, or purchase any option to purchase, directly or indirectly, any securities of the Company, (2) cause or assist any other Person that would be deemed to be part of a group (as defined in Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act) with such Investor to take any action described in clause (1) of this sentence, (3) take any action that would cause such Investor to be deemed to Beneficially Own additional securities of the Company (including, without limitation, by virtue of a voting agreement) or (4) take any action that would cause such Investor, alone or with others, to be deemed an Acquiring Person (as defined in the Amended and Restated Rights Agreement, dated as of November 2, 2017, between the Company and Computershare Inc. (as rights agent) (the “Rights Agreement”)). This Section 2(a) is expressly agreed to preclude each Investor from engaging in any hedging or other transaction or arrangement that is designed to, or which reasonably could be expected to, lead to or result in a (i) Transfer, in whole or in part, of any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Common Stock or (ii) purchase, in whole or in part, of any of the economic consequences of ownership of Common Stock by such Investor, whether any such transaction in clause (i) or (ii) is to be settled by delivery of Common Stock or other securities, in cash or otherwise, even if such shares would be disposed of or purchased by someone other than such Investor.  Such prohibited hedging or other transactions would include, without limitation, any short sale or any purchase, sale or grant of any right (including, without limitation, any put or call option) with respect to any Common Stock or with respect to any security that includes, relates to, or derives any significant part of its value from Common Stock. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, this Section 2(a) shall not prevent any Transfer (x) of a direct or indirect interest in any Person Affiliated with or managed by an Affiliate of the Designated Investor or (y) of interests in any direct or indirect owner or investor of the Designated Investor or any Person Affiliated with or managed by an Affiliate of the Designated Investor, but only to the extent any such Transfer described in clauses (x) and (y) does not cause any of the factual statements in the Information Letter to no longer be true.
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			4

		

 

		

		
			(b)        Each Investor agrees and consents to the entry of stop transfer instructions with the Company and its transfer agent and registrar against the Transfer of the Common Stock, except in compliance with the foregoing restrictions.  In furtherance of the foregoing, the Company is hereby authorized to decline to make or authorize any Transfer of securities if such Transfer would constitute a violation or breach of this Agreement or violate the Certificate of Incorporation.
		

		
			(c)        Notwithstanding Sections 2(a) and 2(b), the Designated Investor is authorized and permitted to make the Designated Investor Distribution;  provided,  that the Designated Investor is authorized and permitted, at its option, not to distribute to its stockholders any fractional shares that would be distributed under the Designated Investor Distribution;  provided, further, that the Designated Investor is authorized and permitted, to sell to one or more of the Other Investors, pursuant to a purchase agreement (the “DI Purchase Agreement”) with such of the Other Investors, at a price per share of the Common Stock being paid by the Other Investors under the DI Purchase Agreement,  the whole number of the Designated Investor Shares that results from the aggregation of such fractional shares; and provided, further, that the Designated Investor is authorized and permitted to transfer, on behalf of Apollo ALS Holdings II, L.P., to one or more of the Other Investors, pursuant and subject to the terms and conditions of a purchase agreement (the “Apollo Purchase Agreement”), certain shares of Common Stock that would have otherwise been distributed to Apollo ALS Holdings II, L.P. A copy of the form of DI Purchase Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit A and a copy of the form of Apollo Purchase Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit B.  The Company represents and warrants to the Designated Investor that the Board has unconditionally approved the Designated Investor Distribution,  the DI Purchase Agreement and the Apollo Purchase Agreement as exceptions to any  restrictions on the transfer of Common Stock, including the restrictions on “4.9-percent Transactions” and “Prohibited Transfers” set forth in Article IX of the Certificate of Incorporation, and has provided separate written confirmation of such approvals to the Designated Investor;  provided,  that the failure of the Board to approve the Designated Investor Distribution, the DI Purchase Agreement or the Apollo Purchase Agreement shall not prevent the Designated Investor from effectuating the Designated Investor Distribution,  the DI Purchase Agreement or the Apollo Purchase Agreement,  or result in any liability to the Designated Investor after effectuating the Designated Investor Distribution,  the DI Purchase Agreement or the Apollo Purchase Agreement.
		

		
			3.         Other Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Designated Investor.  In consideration of being issued Common Stock on the Effective Date, the Designated Investor hereby agrees with and represents and warrants to the Company:
		

		
			(a)        Subject to Section 2(c), during the period beginning on the Effective Date and continuing to and including the Termination Date, the Designated Investor agrees to prevent (to the extent in its reasonable control) and not knowingly to participate in or facilitate (whether by consent or approval, sharing of information or otherwise) any transaction involving it, or any Persons directly or indirectly holding securities or other interests issued by it, that would result in an indirect transfer of its Common Stock that would cause any “owner shift,” within the meaning of Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Tax Code”), or the Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Treasury Regulations”), with respect to the

			Company.  For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 3(a) shall restrict or limit the Designated Investor’s right to make the Designated Investor Distribution and to complete the transactions under the DI Purchase Agreement.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, this Section 3(a) shall not prevent any Transfer (x) of a direct or indirect interest in any Person Affiliated with or managed by an Affiliate of the Designated Investor, or (y) of interests in any direct or indirect owner or investor of the Designated Investor or any Person Affiliated with or managed by an Affiliate of the Designated Investor, but only to the extent any such Transfer described in clauses (x) and (y) does not cause any of the factual statements in the Information Letter to no longer be true.
		

		
			(b)        The Designated Investor represents and warrants that the only stock it has issued and outstanding is a single class of common stock, par value $0.01 (“DI Common Stock”), and that it owns no shares of common stock of the Company, other than the shares of Common Stock distributed or to be distributed to it pursuant to the Plan.
		

		
			(c)        The Designated Investor agrees that for so long as it owns Common Stock, without the consent of the Company, it will not issue any stock of any class;  provided, that, the Designated Investor is specifically permitted to issue DI Common Stock in connection with (1) the exercise by a holder thereof of the conversion rights under Aleris International, Inc.’s 6% Senior Subordinated Exchangeable Notes, (2) the exercise or vesting of any option, restricted stock unit or DI Common Stock otherwise issuable under any equity incentive plan or similar plan to which the Designated Investor is a party, and (3) any contract or agreement to which the Designated Investor is a party (including employment agreements) which contractually require the Designated Investor to issue or distribute DI Common Stock.
		

		
			(d)        The Designated Investor has provided to the Company in writing certain factual information the Company has requested regarding the holders of securities and other interests issued by the Designated Investor (the “Information Letter”).  To the knowledge of the Designated Investor, such information is true, correct and complete as of the date provided.  For so long as the Designated Investor owns any Common Stock (or if earlier, the Termination Date),  at the Company’s sole cost and expense with respect to third party out of pocket costs,  the Designated Investor (i) will provide such factual information about the Persons holding securities or other interests issued by the Designated Investor as is reasonably and specifically requested by the Company to determine the Company’s “5% shareholders” (within the meaning of Section 382 of the Tax Code and the Treasury Regulations), and (ii) will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain similar factual information for the Company from any Person that, due to its direct or indirect ownership of securities or other interests issued by the Designated Investor, is or could have owners or other interest holders who are a “5% shareholder” or “higher tier entity” (each within the meaning of Section 382 of the Tax Code and the Treasury Regulations) with respect to the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 3(d) shall not require the Designated Investor to (x) disclose the identity of, or other specific information related to, any Person that indirectly owns less than 5% of the Common Stock, solely taking into account such Person’s indirect ownership of the Common Stock owned by the Designated Investor, (y) inquire into any direct, indirect, constructive or attributed ownership by any Person of Common Stock other than solely by reason of owning a direct or indirect interest in the Designated Investor, or (z) make any legal conclusions or provide any legal opinions.

			Investor Owner will not, directly or indirectly, purchase, agree to purchase, contract to purchase, or purchase any option to purchase any securities of the Company.

Such prohibited hedging or other transactions would include, without limitation, any short sale or any purchase, sale or grant of any right (including, without limitation, any put or call option) with respect to any Common Stock or with respect to any security that includes, relates to, or derives any significant part of its value from Common Stock.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement other than the provisions of Section 5, this Section 4(a) shall not prevent any Transfer (w) of interests in Oaktree Capital Group LLC, (x) of a direct or indirect interest in any Person Affiliated with or managed by an Affiliate of the Designated Investor that does not own a direct or indirect interest in the Designated Investor, (y) of interests in any direct or indirect third party owner, investor or limited partner of an investment fund or alternative investment vehicle that owns an interest in the Designated Investor, or (z) of the Common Stock held by the Designated Investor to a Permitted Subsidiary thereof.
		

		
			(b)        The Designated Investor agrees and consents to the entry of stop transfer instructions with the Company and its transfer agent and registrar against the Transfer of the Common Stock, except in compliance with the foregoing restrictions.

			(c)        Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Designated Investor may make a distribution, effective on the same day, of all (but not less than all) of its Common Stock to its equity owners in proportion to their equity ownership in the Designated Investor as of the date of such distribution. The Company represents and warrants to the Designated Investor that the Company has approved such a proportionate distribution as an exception to the restriction on “Prohibited Transfers” set forth in Article IX of the Certificate of Incorporation and shall provide separate written confirmation of such approval to the Designated Investor.  Any equity owner of the Designated Investor that would directly own 5% of the Common Stock following such distribution (i) that is a party to this Agreement agrees that it shall thereafter be bound by the terms hereof as the Designated Investor hereunder, and (ii) that is not a party to this Agreement shall execute a joinder agreement pursuant to which such equity owner agrees to be bound by the terms hereof as the Designated Investor hereunder.
		

		
			(d)        Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Designated Investor may Transfer its Common Stock to a liquidating trust or other liquidating vehicle for the benefit of the owners of the Designated Investor if their beneficial interest in such

			trust or other vehicle is in proportion to their equity ownership in the Designated Investor as of the date of such Transfer.  The Company represents and warrants to the Designated Investor that the Company has approved such a proportionate distribution as an exception to the restriction on “Prohibited Transfers” set forth in Article IX of the Certificate of Incorporation and shall provide separate written confirmation of such approval to the Designated Investor.  If any Person would directly own 5% of the Common Stock as a result of such Transfer (treating their beneficial interest in the Common Stock owned by such trust or other vehicle as being directly owned), such Person (i) that is a party to this Agreement agrees that it shall thereafter be bound by the terms hereof as the Designated Investor hereunder, and (ii) that is not a party to this Agreement shall execute a joinder agreement pursuant to which such Person agrees to be bound by the terms hereof as the Designated Investor hereunder.
		

		
			5.         Other Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Designated Investor.  In consideration of the indirect benefit to the Designated Investor of Aleris being paid cash and issued Common Stock on the Effective Date under the Plan,  the Designated Investor hereby agrees with and represents and warrants to the Company all of the following, and the Designated Investor Owner, Fund VIIB and OCMO hereby agree with and represent and warrant to the Company only the statements below specifically referencing them, respectively:
		

		
			(a)        During the period beginning on the Effective Date and continuing to and including the earlier of the end of the Lock-Up Period and the date that each of it and OCMO and any Permitted Subsidiary that at any time owned Common Stock no longer directly owns any Common Stock, the Designated Investor, the Designated Investor Owner, and  Fund VIIb agree to prevent (to the extent in their respective control) and not to participate in or facilitate (whether by consent or approval, sharing of information or otherwise), if any transaction described in clauses (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) would cause any “owner shift,” within the meaning of Section 382 of the Tax Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, with respect to the Company, (i)  any transaction involving the Designated Investor that would result in a direct Transfer of its Common Stock, (ii) any transaction involving the Designated Investor or the Designated Investor Owner that would result in any Person other than the Designated Investor Owner having any direct ownership interest in the Designated Investor,  (iii) any transaction involving the Designated Investor Owner or any Person directly holding securities or other interests issued by the Designated Investor Owner that would result in any Person other than Fund VIIb having an Ownership Interest Percentage in the Designated Investor Owner that is greater than 50%, or (iv) any transaction involving Fund VIIb or any Person directly holding securities or other interests issued by Fund VIIb, that would result in any Person having an Ownership Interest Percentage in Fund VIIb that is greater than 50%;  provided, that, for purposes of clauses (ii), (iii) and (iv), neither the Designated Investor, the Designated Investor Owner, Fund VIIb, nor their Affiliates shall be required to enquire into any direct, indirect, constructive or attributed ownership by any Person of Common Stock other than solely by reason of owning a direct or indirect interest in the Designated Investor.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, this Section 5(a) shall not prevent any Transfer (w) of interests in Oaktree Capital Group LLC at any time Oaktree Capital Group LLC’s Ownership Interest Percentage in the Designated Investor Owner is less than 50%,  (x) of a direct or indirect interest in any Person Affiliated with or managed by an Affiliate of the Designated Investor that does not

			own a direct or indirect interest in the Designated Investor, (y) of interests in any direct or indirect third party owner, investor or limited partner of Fund VIIb or of an investment fund or alternative investment vehicle other than Fund VIIb that owns an interest in the Designated Investor Owner, or (z) of the Common Stock held by the Designated Investor to a Permitted Subsidiary thereof.
		

		
			(b)        The Designated Investor, the Designated Investor Owner,  and Fund VIIb have provided to the Company factual information the Company has requested regarding the holders of securities and other interests issued by the Designated Investor, the Designated Investor Owner and Fund VIIb for the purpose of permitting the Company to determine the Persons or groups of Persons who are or will be 5% Shareholders  of the Company solely as a result of holding a direct or indirect interest in the securities or other interests issued by the Designated Investor.  For so long as the Designated Investor,  the Designated Investor Owner,  Fund VIIb,  any Permitted Subsidiary or any liquidating trust or other liquidating vehicle referenced in Section 4(d) owns any Common Stock, at the Company’s sole cost and expense with respect to third-party out-of-pocket costs,  the Designated Investor, the Designated Investor Owner, and Fund VIIb (i) will provide such factual information about the Persons holding securities or other interests issued by the Designated Investor, the Designated Investor Owner, and Fund VIIb as is reasonably and specifically requested by the Company to determine the Company’s 5%  Shareholders,  and (ii) will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain similar factual information for the Company from (A) any such liquidating trust or other liquidating vehicle and (B) any Person that, due to its direct or indirect ownership of securities or other interests issued by the Designated Investor,  the Designated Investor Owner, or Fund VIIb, is a 5% Shareholder or could have owners or other interest holders that are 5%  Shareholders with respect to the Company.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 5(b) shall not require the Designated Investor, the Designated Investor Owner, or Fund VIIb to (x) disclose the identity of, or other specific information related to, any Person that indirectly owns less than 5% of the Common Stock, solely taking into account such Person’s indirect ownership of the Common Stock owned by the Designated Investor, (y) to enquire into any direct, indirect, constructive or attributed ownership by any Person of Common Stock other than solely by reason of owning a direct or indirect interest in the Designated Investor, or (z) to make any legal conclusions or provide any legal opinions.  The Designated Investor shall provide the Company a duly executed copy of IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or the applicable successor form) of the Designated Investor Owner, and shall cause each Affiliate to provide the Company a duly executed copy of the applicable IRS Form W-8 or W-9 (or the applicable successor form).  Neither the Designated Investor nor any Affiliate shall be required to provide any withholding statement or IRS Forms W-8 or W-9 with respect to its direct or indirect owners; provided that in connection with any future event that would impose information reporting or withholding obligations on the Company, the Designated Investor shall and shall cause its Affiliates to use commercially reasonable efforts to enable the Company to comply with such obligations, subject to the other provisions of this Agreement.
		

		
			(c)        Neither the Designated Investor, the Designated Investor Owner, Fund VIIb nor OCMO owns any Common Stock as of the date hereof, except for any indirect interest in the Common Stock that has been or will be issued by the Company to Aleris.

			(b)        The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to determine whether any subsequent transaction that is contemplated by the Company could reasonably be expected to cause the Company to be treated as a USRPHC.

			deadline for the receipt of a stockholder proposal to be eligible for consideration by the Company in the Bylaws, with respect to any meeting of the Company’s stockholders at which Class III Directors are to be elected (or, if the Certificate of Incorporation is amended to eliminate the three-class classified board structure, with respect to any meeting of the Company’s stockholders at which directors are to be elected), which notice shall include all information regarding the Nominee that is required by applicable law, the Bylaws, the rules and regulations of the Commission and the listing standards of any national securities exchange on which the Common Stock is listed.  The Nominee shall be selected by the Designated Investor in reasonable consultation with (but without the need for the approval of) the Board or the Company’s Nominating and Governance Committee of the Board (the “Nominating Committee”).  As of the date of this Agreement, Brian Laibow is serving as a director of the Board as the Nominee of the Designated Investor.
		

		
			(b)        Provided the Designated Investor exercises its right under Section 7(a) prior to the occurrence of the Nominee Termination Event, the Company shall, subject to its rights under Section 7(d), at all times during the Designation Period, include, and shall use its commercially reasonable best efforts to cause the Board, whether acting through the Nominating Committee or otherwise, to include, the Nominee in the slate of nominees recommended to the stockholders of the Company for election as a director at the next meeting of stockholders called with respect to such election.
		

		
			(c)        A Nominee shall be entitled to the same compensation paid and expense reimbursement payable to other non-employee members of the Board.
		

		
			(d)        Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall not be obligated to cause to be nominated for election to the Board or recommend to the stockholders the election of any Nominee: (i) who fails to submit to the Company on a timely basis such questionnaires as the Company may reasonably require of its directors generally and such other information as the Company may reasonably request in connection with the preparation of its filings under the Securities Laws as the Company may reasonably require of its directors generally; or (ii) if the Board or the Nominating Committee (if any) determines in good faith, after consultation with outside legal counsel, that such action would constitute a breach of its fiduciary duties or applicable law or violate the Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws; provided, however, that upon the occurrence of either (i) or (ii) above, the Company shall promptly notify the Designated Investor of the occurrence of such event and permit the Designated Investor to provide an alternate Nominee in accordance with the applicable provisions hereof, and the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to perform its obligations under Section 7 with respect to such alternate Nominee (provided that in no event shall the Company be obligated to postpone, reschedule or delay any scheduled meeting of the stockholders with respect to such election).
		

		
			(e)        If at any time during the Designation Period a Board vacancy occurs solely because of the death, disability, disqualification, resignation or removal of the Nominee, then the Board, or any committee thereof, shall not fill such vacancy until the earliest to occur of: (i) the Designated Investor’s designation of a successor Nominee (which successor Nominee shall be designated in accordance with Section 7(a) (without regard to such section’s advance
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			10

		

 

		

		
			notice provisions) and subject to the terms of Section 7(d)) and the Board’s appointment of such successor Nominee to fill the vacancy; (ii) the Designated Investor’s failure to designate a successor Nominee within 20 Business Days after receiving notification of the vacancy from the Company; or (iii) the Designated Investor’s specifically waiving in writing its rights under this Section 7(e).
		

		
			(f)        Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if the Designated Investor together with its Designated Affiliates cease to Beneficially Own at least 5.0% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, whether as a result of dilution, Transfer or otherwise, then the rights of the Designated Investor and any Permitted Assignee under Section 7 of this Agreement shall terminate automatically (the “Nominee Termination Event”).  The Designated Investor or Permitted Assignee shall notify the Company within one Business Day after the occurrence of a Nominee Termination Event.  At the time of nomination, a Nominee shall execute and deliver a resignation letter that shall be irrevocable upon election of such Nominee as a member of the Board and shall be effective automatically upon the occurrence of the Nominee Termination Event.
		

		
			(g)        The Designated Investor’s rights under this Section 7 do not attach to its shares of Common Stock and may only be assigned pursuant to a Permitted Assignment, provided that the Permitted Assignee executes a joinder agreement pursuant to which such Permitted Assignee agrees to be bound by the terms hereof as the Designated Investor hereunder.  The Designated Investor shall notify the Company within three Business Days after any Permitted Assignment.
		

		
			8.         Expenses.   All expenses incurred by the Company and the Designated Investor after the Effective Date in complying with their obligations pursuant to this Agreement shall be paid by the Company.  In addition, the Company shall be responsible for all of its internal expenses incurred in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including, without limitation, all salaries and expenses of its officers and employees performing legal or accounting duties) and the expense of any annual audits.
		

		
			9.         Affiliate Transactions.
		

		
			(a)        The Company shall not, and shall cause its subsidiaries not to, enter into, consummate, amend, modify (including by waiver) or terminate any Affiliate Transaction (as defined below) or any agreement with respect thereto without the approval of a majority of the directors of the Company who were not appointed by and are not otherwise Affiliated with the Related Party to which such Affiliate Transaction relates (the “Disinterested Directors”).  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, independent directors appointed by a Related Party shall be entitled to vote in respect of Affiliate Transactions so long as they remain independent of such Related Party.
		

		
			(b)        Notwithstanding Section 9(a), the approval of the Disinterested Directors shall not be required to approve (i) any Affiliate Transaction that is conducted on arms’ length terms (including with respect to market pricing) and does not, collectively with any related transactions, involve payments or value in excess of $1,000,000 in the aggregate; provided, that
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			11

		

 

		

		
			the officers of the Company shall regularly provide a report to each member of the Board regarding any Affiliate Transactions that are not required to be approved by the Disinterested Directors by virtue of this Section 9(b), including the material terms thereof; or (ii) any Affiliate Transaction of debt financing for any direct or indirect acquisition by the Company or any of its subsidiaries of any corporation, partnership, limited liability company, other business organization or division thereof or any material amount of assets.
		

		
			(c)        For the purposes of this Section 9, the following terms shall have the following meanings:
		

		
			(i)         “Affiliate Transaction” means any contract, agreement, transaction or other arrangement (whether written or unwritten) between the Company or any of its subsidiaries, on the one hand, and any stockholder of the Company that, collectively with its Affiliates, beneficially owns more than 5% of the Common Stock, or any Affiliate of any such stockholder of the Company, on the other hand; provided that, “Affiliate Transactions” shall not include transactions between or among the Company and any of its subsidiaries.
		

		
			(ii)       “Related Party” means a stockholder of the Company that, collectively with its Affiliates, beneficially owns more than 20% of the Common Stock.
		

		
			(d)        The Designated Investor’s right to enforce this Section 9 does not attach to its shares of Common Stock and may only be assigned pursuant to a Permitted Assignment, provided that the Permitted Assignee executes a joinder agreement pursuant to which such Permitted Assignee agrees to be bound by the terms hereof as the Designated Investor hereunder.  The Designated Investor shall notify the Company within three Business Days after any Permitted Assignment.
		

		
			10.       Approval of Transactions.  The Company hereby acknowledges and agrees the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the transactions described in Section 2,  Section 4(c) and Section 4(d), do not violate or constitute a breach of the Amended and Restated Rights Agreement, dated as of November 2, 2017 (as amended, supplemented, restated and modified from time to time, the “Rights Agreement”), by and between the Company and Computershare, Inc., and the Company hereby waives any and all rights pursuant to the Rights Agreement with respect to such transactions.
		

		
			11.       Notices. All notices, requests, consents, claims, demands, waivers and other communications hereunder shall be in writing, which shall include electronic delivery, and shall be deemed to have been given (a) when delivered by hand (with written confirmation of receipt); (b) when received by the addressee if sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier (receipt requested); (c) on the date sent by e-mail of a PDF document (with confirmation of transmission) if sent during normal business hours of the recipient, and on the next Business Day if sent after normal business hours of the recipient; or (d) on the third day after the date mailed, by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid. Such communications must be sent to the respective parties at the addresses indicated below (or at such other address for a party as shall be specified in a notice given in accordance with this Section 11).

			13.       Successor and Assigns. Except as otherwise set forth herein, this Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.
		

		
			14.       No Third-Party Beneficiaries.

			15.       Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for reference only and shall not affect the interpretation of this Agreement.
		

		
			16.       Amendment, Modification and Waiver. The provisions of this Agreement may only be amended, modified, supplemented or waived with the prior written consent of the Company and the Designated Investor or Permitted Assignee.
		

		
			17.       Severability. If any term or provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision of this Agreement or invalidate or render unenforceable such term or provision in any other jurisdiction. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.
		

		
			18.       Remedies. Each party hereto, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law, including recovery of damages, shall be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Agreement. Each party hereto acknowledges that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the provisions of this Agreement and hereby agrees to waive the defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate.  If any Investor breaches this Agreement and the Company fails to exercise its remedies in response to such breach, the parties hereto agree that any Investor shall be entitled, on behalf of the Company, to exercise any rights granted to the Company by law, including recovery of damages, and to seek specific performance, with respect to such breach.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no event shall the aggregate liability of the Designated Investor, OCMO, Fund VIIIb, and any other Person that becomes a party to this Agreement pursuant to Section 4(c), Section 4(d), or a Permitted Assignment arising out of any breach of this Agreement or failure of any representation to be true (including, for the avoidance of doubt any information provided under Section 5(b) and any related certificates provided on or about the date hereof) or the Certificate of Incorporation exceed the value of the Common Stock held by such Persons at the time of the breach.
		

		
			19.       Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction). Any legal suit, action or proceeding arising out of or based upon this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby may be instituted in the Delaware Court of Chancery, and each party irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts in any such suit, action or proceeding. Service of process, summons, notice or other document by mail to such party’s address set forth herein shall be effective service of process for any suit, action or other proceeding brought in any such court. The parties irrevocably and unconditionally waive any objection to the laying of venue of any suit, action or any proceeding in such courts and irrevocably waive and agree not to plead or claim in any such court that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

			20.       Waiver of Jury Trial. Each party acknowledges and agrees that any controversy which may arise under this Agreement is likely to involve complicated and difficult issues and, therefore, each such party irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right it may have to a trial by jury in respect of any legal action arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. Each party to this Agreement certifies and acknowledges that (a) no representative of any other party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such other party would not seek to enforce the foregoing waiver in the event of a legal action, (b) such party has considered the implications of this waiver, (c) such party makes this waiver voluntarily, and (d) such party has been induced to enter into this Agreement by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications in this Section 20.

			22.       Further Assurances.
