without regard to the conflict of laws principles thereof. All Actions arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be heard and

 “Specified Courts”). Each Party hereto hereby (a) submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of any Specified Court
for the purpose of any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement brought by any Party hereto and (b) irrevocably waives,
and agrees not to assert by way of motion, defense or otherwise, in any such Action, any claim that it is not subject personally to the
jurisdiction of the above-named courts, that its property is exempt or immune from attachment or execution, that the Action is brought
in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of the Action is improper, or that this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby may

Agreement were not performed by an applicable Party in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. Accordingly, each
Party shall be entitled to seek an injunction or restraining order to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to seek to enforce specifically
the terms and provisions hereof, without the requirement to post any bond or other security or to prove that money damages would be inadequate,
this being in addition to any other right or remedy to which such Party may be entitled under this Agreement, at law or in equity.

 

9.7       Severability.
In case any provision in this Agreement shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in a jurisdiction, such provision shall be modified

legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby nor shall the validity,
legality or enforceability of such provision be affected thereby in any other jurisdiction. Upon such determination that any term or other
provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties will substitute for any invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision
a suitable and equitable provision that carries out, so far as may be valid, legal and enforceable, the intent and purpose of such invalid,
illegal or unenforceable provision.

hereto, (ii) waive any inaccuracy in the representations and warranties by such other non-Affiliated Party contained herein or in
any document delivered pursuant hereto and (iii) waive compliance by such other non-Affiliated Party with any covenant or condition contained

bound thereby. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no failure or delay by a Party in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver
thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any other right hereunder.

which exhibits and schedules are incorporated herein by reference, together with the Ancillary Documents, embody the entire agreement
