with respect to the voting of the capital stock of the Company. 
  
 (b) Except as set forth on Schedule 3.4(b) hereto, the registration of the Shares pursuant to Section 8 hereof will not give rise to any registration rights on behalf of any Person under any agreement or
instrument applicable to the Company. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.4(b) hereto, other than pursuant to Section 8 hereof, no Person has any right to require the Company to register securities of the Company under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended (the “1933 Act”). 
  
 3.5 Noncontravention. 
  
 (a)
Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement, nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, will (i) violate any constitution, statute, regulation, rule, ordinance, code, injunction, judgment, order, decree, ruling,
charge, writ, determination or other restriction (“Law”) of any government or political subdivision or department thereof, any governmental regulatory body, commission, board, agency or instrumentality, or any court or arbitrator or
alternative dispute resolution body, in each case whether federal, state, local or foreign (“Governmental Authority”) to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is subject or any provision of the Certificate of Incorporation or

arrangement to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is bound or to which any of the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ assets is subject (or result in the imposition of any
mortgage, pledge, Lien, encumbrance, charge or other security interest upon any of such assets or properties), except in either case, where such violation, conflict or default would not have a Material Adverse Effect. 
  
 (b) Except for (i) the filing of a Form D with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and (ii) filings which may be required under state securities laws, for which filings the Company shall be responsible, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is required

 3.6
Absence of Certain Changes. Except as disclosed in the reports required to be filed by the Company under the 1934 Act, in the preceding twelve (12) months (the “SEC Documents”) or otherwise disclosed in public
announcements or press releases, since August 31, 2004, the Company and its Subsidiaries have conducted their consolidated business in the ordinary and usual course and there has been no change to the business, properties, assets, operations,
prospects, results of operations or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Company or its Subsidiaries (taken as a whole), except for such changes which could not be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
  
 3.7 No General Solicitation. Neither the Company, nor
any of its Affiliates (as defined below), nor any person acting on its or their behalf, has engaged in any form of general solicitation or general advertising (within the meaning of Regulation D (“Regulation D”) promulgated
under the 1933 Act) in connection with the offer or sale of the Shares. “Affiliate” has the meaning set forth in Rule 12b-2 promulgated under the 1934 as in effect on the date hereof. The term “Affiliated” has
a correlative meaning. 
  
 3.8 Reports Filed
Under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934; Financial Statements. The Company has timely filed all reports required to be filed by the Company under the 1934 Act. The SEC Documents contain all statements required to be stated therein in
accordance with the 1934 Act and do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. As of their respective dates (except
as they have been correctly amended), the financial statements of the Company included in the SEC Documents complied as to form in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and the published rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) with respect thereto. Such financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied, during the periods involved (except
(a) as may be otherwise indicated in such financial statements or the notes thereto or (b) in the case of unaudited interim statements, to the extent they may exclude footnotes or may be condensed or summary statements) and fairly present
the financial position of the Company as of the dates thereof and the results of its operations and cash flows for the periods then ended (subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to normal year-end audit adjustments). 
  
 4. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE
INVESTOR. The Investor represents and warrants to the Company that the statements in the following paragraphs of this Section 4 are true and correct: 
  
 4.1 Organization and Qualification. The Investor is duly organized, validly existing and in
good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization. The Investor 

  

 5 

 
has all requisite power and authority to enter into and perform this Agreement and to carry out the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. 

 
 4.2 Authorization. All action on the part of the
Investor and Mr. Price necessary for the authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Settlement, respectively, and the performance of all obligations of the Investor and Mr. Price hereunder and thereunder, as the case
may be, have been taken, and this Agreement and the Settlement have been duly executed and delivered by the Investor and Mr. Price, respectively, and constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Investor and Mr. Price,
respectively, enforceable in accordance with their terms, except as may be limited by (a) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other laws of general application relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights
generally; (b) the effect of rules of law governing the availability of equitable remedies; and (c) the unenforceability under certain circumstances under law or court decisions of provisions providing for the indemnification of or
contribution to a party with respect to a liability where such indemnification or contribution is contrary to public policy or prohibited by law. 
  
 4.3 Purchase for Own Account. Except as permitted pursuant to Section 10.3 hereof, the Shares to be acquired by
the Investor hereunder will be acquired for investment for the Investor’s own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the public resale or distribution thereof within the meaning of the 1933 Act, and the Investor has no
present intention of selling or otherwise distributing the same. The Investor does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any Person to sell, transfer or grant participations to such Person or to any third Person, with
respect to the Shares. The Investor also represents that it has not been formed for the specific purpose of acquiring the Shares. 
  
 4.4 Accredited Investor Status. The Investor is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of
Regulation D. By reason of its business and financial experience, sophistication and knowledge, the Investor is capable of evaluating the risks and merits of the investment made pursuant to this Agreement. The Investor confirms that it is able
(a) to bear the economic risk of this investment, as well as other risk factors as more fully set forth herein and in the SEC Documents, (b) to hold the Shares for an indefinite period of time and (c) to bear a complete loss of the
Investor’s investment; and the Investor represents that it has sufficient liquid assets so that the illiquidity associated with this investment will not cause any undue financial difficulties or affect the Investor’s ability to provide for
its current needs and possible financial contingencies. 
  
 4.5 Restricted Securities. The Investor understands that the Shares are characterized as “restricted securities” under the 1933 Act inasmuch as they are being acquired from the Company in a
transaction not involving a public offering and that under the 1933 Act and applicable regulations thereunder such securities may be resold without registration under the 1933 Act only in certain limited circumstances. In this connection, the
Investor represents that it is familiar with Rule 144 promulgated under the 1933 Act (“Rule 144”), as presently in effect, and understands the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the 1933 Act. The Investor understands that the
Company is under no obligation to register any of the securities sold hereunder except as provided in Section 8 hereof. 
  

 6 

 4.6 Due Diligence and No Solicitation. The Investor has had a reasonable
opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from the Company and its officers, and all such questions have been answered to the full satisfaction of the Investor. At no time was the Investor presented with or solicited by any leaflet, public
promotional meeting, circular, newspaper or magazine article, radio or television advertisement or any other form of general advertising. 
  
 4.7 Further Limitations on Disposition. Without in any way limiting the representations set forth above, the
Investor further agrees not to make any disposition of all or any portion of the Shares unless and until: 
  
 (a) there is then in effect a registration statement under the 1933 Act covering such proposed disposition and such disposition is made in
accordance with such registration statement; or 
  
 (b) (i) the Investor shall have notified the Company of the proposed disposition and shall have furnished the Company with a statement of the circumstances surrounding the proposed disposition, and (ii) the Investor shall have
furnished the Company at the Investor’s expense an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Company that such disposition will not require registration of such securities under the 1933 Act; provided that the Company shall not
require an opinion of counsel for routine sales of shares pursuant to Rule 144. 
  
 4.8 Legends. It is understood that the certificates evidencing the Shares will bear the legends set forth below: 
  
 (a) THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN
REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”), OR UNDER ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THESE SECURITIES ARE SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERABILITY AND RESALE AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED OR RESOLD EXCEPT AS PERMITTED
UNDER THE ACT AND THE APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, PURSUANT TO REGISTRATION OR EXEMPTION THEREFROM. 
  
 (b) The legend referred to in Section 4.8(a) above shall be removed from a certificate representing such Shares if the securities
represented thereby are sold pursuant to an effective registration statement under the 1933 Act, or there is delivered to the Company such satisfactory evidence, which may include an opinion of independent counsel, as reasonably may be requested by
the Company, to confirm that neither such legend nor the restrictions on transfer set forth therein are required to ensure that transfers of such securities will not violate the registration requirements of the 1933 Act.

follows with respect to the period between the execution of this Agreement and the Closing:

 8. REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR RESALE OF THE SHARES. 
  
 8.1 Registration. Within thirty (30) days after demand by the Investor, the Company will prepare
and file with the SEC a registration statement under the 1933 Act registering all of the Shares sold to the Investor pursuant to this Agreement for resale to the public by the Investor pursuant to such registration statement (the
“Registration Statement”) and maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement for the period specified in Section 8.2(a) for use by the Investor and its respective Affiliates at any time during such period with
respect to the offering and sale or other disposition of the Shares. 
  
 8.2 Company Obligations. In the case of each registration effected by the Company pursuant to this Section 8, the Company will keep the Investor advised in writing as to the initiation of each registration
and as to the completion thereof. At its expense, the Company will: 
  
 (a) use its best efforts to cause such registration to remain effective at all times until the earlier of (i) two years from the Closing Date and (ii) such time as the Shares may be freely sold to the public
without registration and without regard to volume or manner of sale; 
  
 (b) prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and post-effective amendments to such registration statement and supplements to the prospectus as may be (i) reasonably requested by the holders of a majority of
the Shares, (ii) reasonably requested by any participating holder (to the extent such request relates to information relating to such holder), or (iii) necessary to keep such registration effective for the period of time required by this
Section 8; 
  
 (c) prepare and deliver to
the Investor as many copies of each preliminary and final prospectus and other documents incident thereto as the Investor from time to time may reasonably request; 
  
 (d) immediately notify the Investor, at any time when a prospectus relating to a registration of Shares is
required to be delivered under the 1933 Act, of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and, at the request of the Investor, prepare a supplement or amendment to such registration statement so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers
of such Shares, such prospectus will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; 
  

 10 

 (e) use its best efforts to register or qualify and maintain the qualification of the
Shares covered by such registration under such state securities or “blue sky” laws for offers and sales to the public as the Investor shall reasonably request; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to
qualify as a foreign corporation to do business under the laws of or become subject to taxation in, any jurisdiction in which it shall not be then qualified, or to file any general consent to service of process; 
  
 (f) otherwise use its best efforts to comply with the
securities laws of the United States and other applicable jurisdictions and all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and comparable Governmental Authorities in other applicable jurisdictions; 
  
 (g) notify the Investor (i) when the Registration
Statement or any amendment thereto has been filed or becomes effective, when the prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto has been filed and to furnish the Investor with copies thereof, (ii) of the issuance by the SEC of any stop order
suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or any order preventing or suspending the use of the preliminary prospectus or the Final Prospectus (as defined below) or the initiation or threatening of any proceedings for such purposes,
and (iii) the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspending of the qualification of the Shares for offering or sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; and

  
 (h) with a view to making available the
benefits of certain rules and regulations of the SEC which may permit the sale of restricted securities to the public without registration, the Company agrees to: (i) make and keep public information available as those terms are understood and
defined in Rule 144; (ii) use its best efforts to file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the 1933 Act and the 1934 Act at any time after it has become subject to such reporting
requirements; and (iii) so long as the Investor or transferee of the Investor owns any Shares, furnish to the Investor or transferee of the Investor upon request, a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the reporting
requirements of Rule 144 and of the 1933 Act and the 1934 Act, a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company, and such other reports and documents so filed as the Investor or transferee of the Investor may reasonably
request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the SEC allowing the Investor or transferee of the Investor to sell any such securities without registration. 
  
 8.3 Restrictions on Registrations. If at any time or from time to time after the effective date of
the Registration Statement, the Company promptly notifies the Investor in writing of the existence of a Potential Material Event (as defined below), the Investor shall not offer or sell any Shares or engage in any other transaction involving or
relating to the Shares, from the time of the giving of notice with respect to a Potential Material Event until the Investor receives written notice from the Company that such Potential Material Event either has been disclosed to the public or no
longer constitutes a Potential Material Event. If a Potential Material Event shall occur prior to the date the Registration Statement is filed, then notwithstanding Section 8.1 above, the Company’s obligation to file the Registration
Statement shall be delayed until such Potential Material Event either has been disclosed to the public or no longer constitutes a Potential Material Event. “Potential Material Event” means any of the following: (a) the
possession by the Company of material information not ripe for disclosure in a 

  

 11 

 
registration statement, as determined in good faith by the Chief Executive Officer or the Board of Directors that disclosure of such information in a
Registration Statement would be materially detrimental to the business and affairs of the Company; or (b) any material engagement or activity by the Company which would, in the good faith determination of the Chief Executive Officer or the
Board of Directors, be materially adversely affected by disclosure in a registration statement at such time, which determination shall be accompanied by a good faith determination by the Chief Executive Officer or the Board of Directors that the
applicable Registration Statement would be materially misleading absent the inclusion of such information. In no event shall the suspension of the Registration Statement (or the permissible delay in filing a Registration Statement) (i) exceed
ninety (90) days on any one occasion as a result of a Potential Material Event or (ii) be permitted more than once during any 12-month period. 
  
 8.4 Investor Obligations and Rights. 
  
 (a) The Investor shall cooperate as reasonably requested by the Company with the Company in connection with the preparation of the
Registration Statement, and for so long as the Company is obligated to file and keep effective the Registration Statement, shall provide to the Company, in writing, for use in the Registration Statement, all such information regarding the Investor
and its plan of distribution of the Shares as may be reasonably necessary to enable the Company to prepare the Registration Statement and prospectus covering the Shares, to maintain the currency and effectiveness thereof and otherwise to comply with
all applicable requirements of law in connection therewith. The Investor shall have the right to prepare any portions of the Registration Statement requiring information regarding the Investor and its plan of distribution of the Shares. 

 
 (b) During such time as the Investor may be engaged in a
distribution of the Shares, the Investor shall comply with Regulation M promulgated under the 1934 Act and pursuant thereto it shall, among other things, (i) not engage in any stabilization activity in connection with the securities of the
Company in contravention of such regulation; (ii) distribute the Shares under the Registration Statement solely in the manner described in the Registration Statement; and (iii) cease distribution of such Shares pursuant to such
Registration Statement upon receipt of written notice from the Company that the prospectus covering the Shares contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading. 
  
 (c) The
Investor hereby covenants with the Company not to make any sale of the Shares without effectively causing the prospectus delivery requirements under the 1933 Act to be satisfied unless the sale is made pursuant to an exemption from registration.

  
 (d) The Investor acknowledges and agrees that
the Shares sold pursuant to the Registration Statement are not transferable on the books of the Company unless the stock certificate submitted to the transfer agent evidencing the Shares is accompanied by a certificate reasonably satisfactory to the
Company to the effect that (i) the Shares have been sold in accordance with this Agreement and the Registration Statement and (ii) the requirement of delivering a current prospectus has been satisfied. 
  

 12 

 (e) Following termination of the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, the
Investor shall discontinue sales of Shares pursuant thereto upon receipt of notice from the Company of its intention to remove from registration the Shares covered thereby which remain unsold, and the Investor shall promptly notify the Company of
the number of Shares registered that remain unsold immediately upon receipt of the notice from the Company. 
  
 (f) The Investor will observe and comply with the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act and the general rules and regulations thereunder, as now in
effect and as from time to time amended and including those hereafter enacted or promulgated, in connection with any offer, sale, pledge, transfer or other disposition of the Shares or any part thereof. 
  
 8.5 Indemnification. 
  
 (a) The Company will indemnify and hold harmless to the
fullest extent permitted by law the Investor, each of its Affiliates and each of their respective officers, directors, shareholders, employees, advisors, agents and partners, and each person controlling the Investor, with respect to each
registration which has been effected pursuant to this Section 8 against all Losses (as defined below) jointly and severally arising out of or based on any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any
prospectus, offering circular or other document (including any amendment or supplement thereto or any documents incorporated by reference therein and any related registration statement, notification or the like) incident to any such registration,
qualification or compliance, or based on any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or any violation by the Company of the 1933 Act or
the 1934 Act or any rule or regulation thereunder applicable to the Company and relating to action or inaction required of the Company in connection with any such registration, qualification or compliance, and will reimburse the Investor, each of
its Affiliates and each of their respective officers, directors, shareholders, employees, advisors, agents and partners, and each person controlling the Investor for any legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with
investigating and defending any such Losses; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such Losses arise out of or are based on any untrue statement or omission based upon written
information furnished to the Company by the Investor and stated expressly to be specifically for use therein. “Losses” shall mean, collectively, any and all losses, penalties, judgments, suits, costs, claims, liabilities, damages
and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements). 
  
 (b) The Investor will, if Shares held by it are included in the securities as to which such registration, qualification or compliance is
being effected, indemnify and hold harmless to the fullest extent permitted by law the Company, each of its Affiliates and their respective directors, employees, advisors, agents and officers and each person who controls the Company, against all
Losses arising out of or based on any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any such registration statement, prospectus, offering circular or other document made by the Investor in writing, or any omission
(or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements by the Investor therein not misleading, and will reimburse the Company and its directors, officers, partners, persons, or
control persons for any legal or any other expenses 

  

 13 

 
reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending any such Losses, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue
statement (or alleged untrue statement) or omission (or alleged omission) is made in such registration statement, prospectus, offering circular or other document in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by
the Investor and stated expressly to be specifically for use therein; provided, however, that the obligations of the Investor hereunder shall be limited to an amount equal to the net proceeds to such Investor of securities sold as
contemplated herein. 
  
 (c) Each party entitled
to indemnification under this Section 8.5 (the “Indemnified Party”) shall give notice to the party required to provide indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) promptly after such Indemnified Party has actual
knowledge of any claim as to which indemnity may be sought and shall permit the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of any such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom; provided that counsel for the Indemnifying Party, who shall
conduct the defense of such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom, shall be approved by the Indemnified Party (whose approval shall not unreasonably be withheld) and the Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at such party’s
expense (unless (i) the Indemnifying Party has agreed in writing to pay such fees or expenses, (ii) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed to assume the defense of such claim within a reasonable time after receipt of notice of such claim
from the Person entitled to indemnification hereunder and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Person, (iii) the Indemnified Party has reasonably concluded (based on the written advice of counsel) that there may be legal defenses
available to it or other Indemnified Parties that are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Party, or (iv) the Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be a conflict of interest between the
Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party in such action, in which case the fees and expenses of counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying Party), and provided further that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give
notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Section 8 unless the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced thereby. If such defense is not assumed by the Indemnifying Party, the
Indemnifying Party will not be subject to any liability for any settlement made without its consent, but such consent may not be unreasonably withheld. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense, the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to
settle such action without the written consent of the Indemnified Party. No Indemnifying Party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation shall, except with the consent of each Indemnified Party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into
any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation. Each Indemnified Party shall furnish
such information regarding itself or the claim in question as an Indemnifying Party may reasonably request in writing and as shall be reasonably required in connection with the defense of such claim and litigation resulting therefrom. 
  
 If the indemnification provided for in this Section 8.5
is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an Indemnified Party with respect to any Losses referred to herein, then the Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party hereunder, shall contribute to the
amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such Losses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party on the one hand and of the Indemnified Party on the other in connection with the
statements or omissions which resulted in such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense, as 

  

 14 

 
well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and of the Indemnified Party shall be determined by
reference to, among other things, whether the untrue (or alleged untrue) statement of a material fact or the omission (or alleged omission) to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Indemnifying Party or by the Indemnified
Party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 8.5 to the contrary, no Indemnifying Party (other than the
Company) shall be required pursuant to this Section 8.5 to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the net proceeds received by such Indemnifying Party from the sale of Shares in the offering to which the Losses of the
Indemnified Party relates exceeds the amount of any damages which such Indemnifying Party has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue statement or omission. 
  
 The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this
Section 8.5 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. No person guilty of fraudulent
misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the 1933 Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. 
  
 (d) The foregoing indemnity agreement of the Company and the Investor is subject to the condition that,
insofar as they relate to any Losses made in a preliminary prospectus but eliminated or remedied in the amended prospectus on file with the SEC at the time the registration statement in question becomes effective or the amended prospectus filed with
the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) promulgated under the 1933 Act (the “Final Prospectus”), such indemnity or contribution agreement shall not inure to the benefit of the Investor if a copy of the Final Prospectus was timely
furnished to the Investor in sufficient quantities for delivery and was not furnished to the person asserting the loss, liability, claim or damage at or prior to the time such action is required by the 1933 Act. 
  
 (e) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement,
the obligations of the parties under this Section 8.5 shall survive indefinitely. 
  
 8.6 Expenses. The Company shall pay all expenses incident to the registration of the Shares under this Section 8 including
without limitation, all registration and filing fees, all fees and expenses of complying with securities or blue sky laws, all word processing, duplicating and printing expenses, and the fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company and its
independent public accountants. With respect to sales of the Shares, the Investor shall pay all underwriting discounts and commissions and fees of underwriters, selling brokers, dealer managers or similar securities industry professionals relating
to the distribution of the Shares to be sold by the Investor, the fees and disbursements of counsel retained by the Investor and transfer taxes, if any.

or warranty contained in this Agreement which cannot be or has not been cured within thirty (30) days after the giving of written notice to the breaching Party of such breach. 
  
 9.2 Effect of Termination. In the event of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to

forth in this Section 9.2, provided that nothing contained in this Agreement shall relieve any party from liability for any breach of this Agreement and provided further that Section 10 shall survive termination of this
Agreement.

violations of this Agreement, and that any party hereto may, in its sole discretion, apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for specific performance or injunctive or such other relief as such court may deem just and proper in order to enforce
this Agreement or prevent any violation hereof and, to the extent permitted by applicable 

  

 16 

 
Law and to the extent the party seeking such relief would be entitled on the merits to obtain such relief, each party waives any objection to the imposition
