There is no Contract, agreement, plan or arrangement to which Seller is a party which requires Seller to pay any material Tax gross-up payment to any person, including without limitation, with respect to any Tax-related payments under Code Section 409A or Code Section 280G.

5.09 Compliance with Laws, Permits, Licenses, Etc.

This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, oral and written, with respect to its subject matter.

9.11 Governing Law. This Agreement and any claim related directly or indirectly to this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the Laws of the State of California, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof that would defer to the substantive Laws of any other jurisdiction. The parties agree that, during the period from the date hereof until the date on which the Chapter 11 Case is closed or dismissed (the “Bankruptcy Period”), the Bankruptcy Court shall have exclusive jurisdiction to resolve any controversy, claim or dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other agreement entered into in connection herewith. The parties further agree that, following the Bankruptcy Period, any action or proceeding with respect to such controversy, claim or dispute shall be brought against any of the parties exclusively in either the United States District Court for the Central District of California or any state court of the State of California located in such district, and each of the parties hereby consents to the personal jurisdiction of such court and the Bankruptcy Court (and to the appropriate appellate courts) in any such action or proceeding and waives any objection, including, without limitation, any objection to the laying of venue or on the grounds of forum non conveniens, which any of them may now or hereafter have to the bringing of such action or proceeding in such respective jurisdictions. Each party hereby irrevocably consents to the service of process of any of the aforesaid courts in any such action or proceeding by the mailing of copies thereof by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to the other parties to such action or proceeding. 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 party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right such party may have to a trial by jury.

9.12 Amendments. This Agreement may not be amended, modified or supplemented except pursuant to an instrument in writing signed by each of the parties hereto. Any failure of Seller to comply with any term or provision of this Agreement may be waived by Buyer at any time by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of Buyer and any failure of Buyer to comply with any term or provision of this Agreement may be waived by Seller at any time by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of Seller, but any such waiver or failure to insist upon strict compliance with such term or provision shall not operate as a waiver of, or estoppel with respect to, any subsequent or other failure to comply.

9.13 Litigation Support. In the event and for so long as any party hereto is actively contesting or defending any action, suit, grievance, arbitration, proceeding, hearing, investigation, charge, complaint, claim or demand with respect to any third party in connection with (i) any transaction contemplated under this Agreement or (ii) any fact, situation, circumstance, status, condition, activity, practice, plan, occurrence, event, incident, action, failure to act or transaction on or prior to Closing relating to or involving the Business, the Assets, the Rehired Employees or the Assumed Liabilities, the other parties will reasonably cooperate with such contest or defense and make reasonably available its personnel, records and information applicable to such matter as may be necessary in connection with prudent handling of such contest or defense, at the contesting or defending party’s expense.

9.14 Terms Generally; Incorporation of Recitals. As used in this Agreement (a) words in the singular shall be held to include the plural and vice versa, (b) words of one gender shall be held to include the other genders as the context requires, (c) the terms “hereof”, “herein” and “herewith” and words of similar import shall, unless otherwise stated, be construed to refer to this Agreement and not to any particular provision of this Agreement, (d) references to Article, Section, paragraph, Annex, Exhibit and Schedule are references to the Articles, Sections, paragraphs, Annexes, Exhibits and Schedules to this Agreement, unless otherwise specified, (e) the word “including” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement, shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation”, unless otherwise specified, and (f) the word “or” shall not be exclusive. The preamble and recitals of this Agreement shall be deemed part of this Agreement and are incorporated fully herein.

9.15 No Survival of Representations, Warranties and Covenants. The representations and warranties of Buyer and Seller contained in this Agreement and the covenants and agreements of Buyer and Seller contained in this Agreement that, by their terms, are to be performed prior to the Closing, shall not survive the Closing and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. All other covenants and agreements shall survive the Closing and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement until fully performed.

9.16 Specific Performance. It is understood and agreed by Buyer and Seller that money damages would be an insufficient remedy for any breach of this Agreement by Buyer or Seller and as a consequence thereof, after the entry of the Transaction Approval Order, each non-breaching party shall be entitled to specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief as a remedy for any such breach, including, without limitation, an Order of the Bankruptcy Court or other court of competent jurisdiction requiring Buyer or Seller to comply promptly with any of its obligations hereunder; provided that nothing in this Section 9.16 shall obligate Seller to consummate the Asset Acquisition with Buyer if Seller complies with the Bidding Procedures and Seller accepts a Qualified Bid (as defined in the Bidding Procedures) from a Person other than Buyer.

9.17 Releases.

(a) Effective as of the Closing, Seller hereby releases Buyer and its Affiliates, and each of their respective officers, directors, managers and employees (in their capacity as such and for services provided to Buyer and its Affiliates), direct or indirect equityholders and non-employee agents and representatives (collectively, the “Buyer Released Parties”) from any and all Liabilities, actions, rights of action, contracts, Indebtedness, obligations, claims, causes of action, suits, damages, demands, costs, expenses and attorneys’ fees whatsoever, of every kind and nature, known or unknown, disclosed or undisclosed, accrued or unaccrued, existing at any time, in all circumstances arising prior to Closing, that Seller or its Affiliates and all such Persons’ respective successors and assigns, have or may have against any of the Buyer Released Parties; provided, that the foregoing shall not release any rights under this Agreement and other agreements contemplated hereby which expressly survive Closing. Each Buyer Released Party that is not a party to this Agreement shall be considered a third party beneficiary of this Agreement with respect to any rights of indemnity or release provided herein.

(b) Effective as of the Closing, Buyer hereby releases any claims it may have against the Debtor’s estate except for claims arising out of or relating to this Agreement.

9.18 Waiver of Civil Code § 1542.

(a) By this Agreement, Seller expressly waives and relinquishes any and all protections provided under section 1542 of the California Civil Code and any similar rights, rules, regulations, and provisions of the Laws of other state and federal jurisdictions. Seller represents, acknowledges and agrees that it has been advised by its legal counsel of, and is familiar with, and understands the effect of section 1542 of the California Civil Code, which provides as follows:

A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him or her must have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor.

(b) Seller is aware that hereafter it may discover claims presently unknown or disclosed to it, facts in addition to or different from those which it now knows or believes to be true, and/or claims in its favor of which it is currently unaware. Nevertheless, by this Agreement, Seller (i) expressly intends for all of such claims to be included within the scope of the foregoing release and such release constitutes a full, complete, voluntary, absolute, and general release of all such claims; and (ii) expressly acknowledges that its waiver and relinquishment of rights under section 1542 of the California Civil Code and all similar rights, rules, regulations, and provisions is an essential element of the consideration provided by this Agreement and that, without such waiver and relinquishment, Buyer would not have executed the Agreement or agreed to its terms. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no rights or claims arising out of this Agreement are waived.

9.19 Computation of Time. In computing any period of time prescribed by or allowed with respect to any provision of this Agreement that relates to Seller or the Chapter 11 Case, the provisions of rule 9006(a) of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure shall apply.

9.20 Time of Essence. Time is of the essence of this Agreement.

9.21 Mutual Drafting. This Agreement is the result of the joint efforts of Buyer and Seller, and each provision hereof has been subject to the mutual consultation, negotiation and agreement of the parties and there is to be no construction against any party based on any presumption of that party’s involvement in the drafting thereof.
