Section 4.7 Misdirected Payments. Following the Closing, the parties covenant and agree to promptly remit to any other party (or Affiliate thereof) any payments received that are owed to such other party (or Affiliate thereof).

(a) At the Closing, Echo shall cause the Company to continue the employment of all Available Employees. In connection therewith, Echo shall cause each such Available Employee to be provided with employee benefits at the Closing that are substantially similar to those provided to other similarly situated employees of Echo; provided, however, for a transition period following the Closing, Echo may instead determine to honor certain policies and procedures of the Company in effect as of Closing for purposes of employee benefits (for example Echo may keep in place certain Company commission plans through the end of 2016 and thereafter transition to Echo commission plans). Echo will honor accrued vacation days of the Available Employees as of the Closing pursuant to the policies and procedures of the Company as in effect as of the Closing. From the Closing Date through August 31, 2016, Seller shall allow all Available Employees to continue to participate in all Employee Benefit Plans that are health or welfare benefit plans consistent with the level of participation of such Available Employees in such Employee Benefit Plans as of the Closing Date.

(b) With respect to any “employee benefit plan,” as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA (including any severance plan) or vacation or paid time off plan, maintained by Echo or any of its Subsidiaries, for purposes of determining eligibility to participate and vesting (but not for purposes of benefits accrual), each such Available Employee’s service with the Company shall be treated as service with Echo or any of its Affiliates. Echo shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause to be waived any pre-existing condition limitations, exclusions, actively-at-work requirements and waiting periods under any welfare benefit plan (including health insurance plan) maintained by Echo or any of its Affiliates in which Available Employees (and their eligible dependents) will be eligible to participate from and after the Closing Date, except to the extent that such pre-existing condition limitations, exclusions, actively-at-work requirements and waiting periods would not have been satisfied or waived under the comparable benefit plan immediately prior to the Closing Date. Echo shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause to be recognized, the dollar amount of all co-payments, deductibles and similar expenses

incurred by each Available Employee (and his or her eligible dependents) during the calendar year in which the Closing occurs for purposes of satisfying such year’s deductible and co-payment limitations under the relevant welfare benefit plans (including health insurance plan) in which such Available Employee (and dependents) will be eligible to participate from and after the Closing Date.

(c) It is understood and agreed that nothing contained herein will constitute any commitment, contract or understanding (expressed or implied) of any obligation on the part of Echo or its Affiliates or Subsidiaries (including the Company) to a post-Closing Date employment relationship with any Available Employee of any fixed term or duration or upon any terms or conditions other than those that Echo or its Subsidiaries (including the Company) may establish pursuant to individual offers of employment; and (y) subject to applicable Legal Requirements, the employment of the Available Employees by Echo or its Subsidiaries (including the Company), as applicable, is “at will” and may be terminated by Echo or its Subsidiaries (including the Company), as applicable, or by any Available Employee, at any time for any reason (subject to any written agreements to the contrary entered into between Echo or its Subsidiaries (including the Company), as applicable, and any such Available Employee).

Section 4.9 Assistance with SEC Filings. In order to assist with any potential future SEC filing requirements or disclosures in future SEC filings of HealthStream in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby or the financial results of the Company, the Seller shall provide such cooperation as HealthStream may reasonably request in connection with such filing requirements. HealthStream shall reimburse the Seller for required out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable attorneys’, accountants’ and other advisors’ fees and expenses) incurred by the Seller in connection with performing their obligations under this Section 4.9.

Section 4.10 Tail Coverage. At the Closing, Seller shall provide evidence to Echo of three (3) years of reporting endorsement (extended reporting or “Tail”) coverage (“Tail Coverage”) with respect to all existing “claims made” insurance policies of Seller in connection with events that may have occurred prior to Closing, but are not reported until after the Closing. Fifty percent (50%) of the cost of the Tail Coverage will be paid by Echo and fifty percent (50%) of the cost of the Tail Coverage will be paid from the Purchase Price to Seller pursuant to the Funds Flow Statement. Such Tail Coverage shall provide coverage, liability limitations, deductibles and other material terms that are no less favorable to Seller than such cancelled or terminated policy. Seller shall not take any action or inaction to cause any such Tail Coverage to be cancelled or terminated, and in the event any such Tail Coverage is cancelled or terminated, Seller shall obtain replacement Tail Coverage in accordance with the terms set forth above. Seller shall cause Echo to be named as an additional insured on all Tail Coverage obtained by Seller pursuant to this Section 4.10.

Section 4.11 Access to Books and Records. Following the Closing, Seller and Echo shall retain for a period consistent with Seller’s record retention policies and practices the books and records related to the business of the Company. Seller also shall provide HealthStream and its Subsidiaries and its representatives, at HealthStream’s sole cost and expense, and Echo shall provide Seller and its Subsidiaries and its representatives, at Seller’s sole cost and expense, reasonable access thereto, during normal business hours and on at prior written notice, for any reasonable purpose specified in such notice. Any access to such records of Seller or Echo, as the

case may be, shall be upon the condition that such access not materially interfere with the business operations of such party, and such access shall not be provided with respect to any such information that is subject to attorney-client privilege or other applicable privilege or to the extent that such privilege would violate applicable Legal Requirements.

Section 4.12 Confidentiality. The parties acknowledge that, following the Closing, as a result of the transactions under this Agreement, (i) a party may inadvertently acquire or retain possession of the other party’s confidential or proprietary information, or (ii) Seller and its Affiliates (including MorCare), on the one hand, and Echo and its Affiliates (including the Company, on the other hand), may receive confidential or proprietary information of the other party pursuant to the terms of the Transition Services Agreement or the Collaboration and Integration Agreement. The parties therefore agree that after the Closing, Echo shall, and shall cause its Affiliates (including the Company), and Seller shall, and shall cause its Affiliates (including MorCare) (each, a “Receiving Party”) to hold in confidence any and all confidential or proprietary information, whether written or oral, owned by the other party or its Affiliates (each, a “Disclosing Party”) which it acquires (inadvertently or otherwise) as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or pursuant to the terms of the Transition Services Agreement, except to the extent that the Receiving Party can show by written documentation that such information (a) is generally available to and known by the public through no fault of the Receiving Party; or (b) is lawfully acquired from and after the Closing from sources which are not prohibited from disclosing such information by a legal, contractual, or fiduciary obligation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for purposes of clarification, in no event will Echo and its Affiliates (including the Company) have any obligations hereunder with respect to confidential or other information held by the Company as of the Closing. After the Closing, upon request, the Receiving Party shall promptly return, and shall require its agents and representatives to return to the Disclosing Party all copies, whether in written, electronic or other form or media, of the Disclosing Party’s confidential or proprietary information, or destroy all such copies and, on request, certify in writing to the Disclosing Party that such information has been destroyed; provided, however, that Receiving Party may retain any such confidential or proprietary information to the extent necessary to comply with any applicable law or regulation or document retention policy, and shall not be required to destroy any copies of electronic files that may be generated by automatic or ordinary course archiving, back-up, security or disaster recovery systems or procedures, provided that such backed-up information is not used, disclosed or otherwise recovered from such back-up devices except for legal, compliance and information technology or disaster recovery purposes and not in violation of this Agreement.

Section 4.13 Collaboration and Integration Agreement. The parties will negotiate in good faith to enter into a Collaboration and Integration Agreement (the “Collaboration and Integration Agreement”) on or prior to 90 days following the Closing Date with respect to MorCare’s MPPR product. In addition, for three years following the Closing, (A) MorCare agrees not to (A) promote integration of its MPPR product, its services or capabilities, by any of Echo’s direct competitors (“Competitors”); provided however, MorCare may assist its clients with integrating or utilizing MPPR in any manner the client sees fit, and (B) allow any Competitors to resell any of its products and services, including, but not limited to, MPPR.

Section 4.14 Lease. Immediately following the Closing, Seller shall contact Behringer Harvard South Riverside, LLC, the landlord under the Lease (such landlord, including any successors in interest thereof, the “Landlord”), to provide notice of the execution and delivery of this Agreement and to request the consent of Landlord to the execution and delivery of the Sublease, pursuant to documentation agreed to by Seller and Echo and following such process as agreed to by Seller and Echo. Seller shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain such consent following the Closing and shall keep Echo reasonably informed of the status of obtaining such consent and such other developments with Landlord in connection therewith, and Echo shall provide reasonable cooperation to Seller in connection with such process.

ARTICLE V

TAX MATTERS

Section 5.1 Tax Treatment of Transaction. The Seller and Echo agree and acknowledge that the purchase and sale of the Shares shall be treated as a purchase and sale of all of the assets of the Company for federal (and applicable state and local) income Tax purposes.

Section 5.2 Seller’s Pre-Closing Income Tax Returns. Seller shall include the income of the Company in Seller’s federal income Tax Returns (and state and local income Tax Returns where applicable) for all periods through the Closing Date and pay any Taxes attributable to such income. All such Tax Returns shall be prepared and filed in a manner consistent with prior practice, except as required by applicable Legal Requirements. Echo shall have the right to review and comment on any such Tax Returns prepared by Seller, and Seller shall make such revisions to such Tax Returns as are reasonably requested by the Echo. Echo shall cause the Company to file income Tax Returns for all periods ending after the Closing Date. To the extent that any such Tax Return is to be filed with respect to a Straddle Period and such Tax Return reflects a liability for Taxes in excess of $5,000, Echo shall provide such Tax Return to the Seller for review and comment at least 60 days (or, for Tax Returns other than income Tax Returns, a reasonable period) prior to the deadline for filing such Tax Return. All such Tax Returns shall be prepared and filed in a manner consistent with prior practice, except as required by applicable Legal Requirements, and Echo shall make such revisions to such Tax Returns as are reasonably requested by the Seller.

Section 5.3 Allocations Relating to Taxes—Straddle Periods. For purposes of this Agreement, whenever it is necessary to determine the liability for Taxes of the Company for Straddle Periods, it shall be determined by assuming that each Straddle Period consists of two (2) taxable years or periods, one which ends at the close of the Closing Date and the other which begins at the beginning of the day following the Closing Date, and items of income, gain, deduction, loss or credit, and state and local apportionment factors of the Company shall be allocated between such two taxable years or periods on a “closing of the books basis” by assuming that the books of the Company were closed at the close of the Closing Date. However, (i) exemptions, allowances or deductions that are calculated on an annual basis, such as the deduction for depreciation, and (ii) periodic Taxes such as real and personal property Taxes shall be apportioned ratably between such periods on a daily basis.

Section 5.4 Transfer Taxes. Any transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other similar Taxes and fees (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby (“Transfer Taxes”) shall be borne (i) 50% by Echo, and (ii) 50% by the Seller, regardless of the Person liable for such obligations under applicable law or the Person making payment to the applicable Governmental Authority or third party. Seller and Echo shall cooperate with each other and use their commercially reasonable efforts to minimize the amount of such Transfer Taxes.

Section 5.5 Allocation of Purchase Price.

(a) Echo shall prepare an allocation in accordance with Code § 1060 and the applicable Treasury Regulations thereunder of the Purchase Price (plus liabilities of the Company and capitalized costs, to the extent such liabilities and other amounts should be included in the purchase price for federal income Tax purpose) allocable to the assets of the Company (the “Draft Purchase Price Allocation”) for approval by Seller, which Draft Purchase Price Allocation, upon such approval, shall be binding upon Echo and Seller and shall be referred to as the “Final Purchase Price Allocation”. The Draft Purchase Price Allocation will be provided by Echo to Seller as soon as practicable following the Closing, and Seller shall inform Echo in writing within 10 days of receiving the Draft Purchase Price Allocation whether Seller approves the Draft Purchase Price Allocation or does not approve the Draft Purchase Price Allocation. Seller shall provide such information as Echo may reasonably request to assist Echo with preparing the Draft Purchase Price Allocation. If Seller approves the Draft Purchase Price Allocation within the 10-day period, or Seller fails to provide written notice to Echo that Seller objects to the Draft Purchase Price Allocation within the 10-day period, then the Draft Purchase Price Allocation shall become the Final Purchase Price Allocation. If Seller provides Echo a written objection to the Draft Purchase Price Allocation within the 10-day period (together with a statement explaining Seller’s particular objections to the Draft Purchase Price Allocation along with Seller’s reasons for any objections), then the Draft Purchase Price Allocation shall not become the Final Purchase Price Allocation at such time, and Echo and Seller shall cooperate in good faith for a period of 30 days to resolve their differences. If Echo and Seller resolve their differences within such 30-day period, the Draft Purchase Price Allocation, as amended to reflect any changes agreed upon by Echo and Seller, shall become the Final Purchase Price Allocation. If Echo and Seller are unable to resolve their differences within such 30-day period, Echo and Seller and their respective Affiliates shall be entitled to allocate the Purchase Price to the assets of the Company in such manner as each independently determines is reasonable.

(b) Echo, the Seller, their Affiliates and any other applicable Persons (each a “Tax Filing Party”) shall file all Tax Returns including IRS Form 8594, consistent with the Final Purchase Price Allocation, if any. None of the Tax Filing Parties shall take any income Tax position inconsistent with the Final Purchase Price Allocation, if any, or agree to any proposed adjustment to the Final Purchase Price Allocation, if any, by any Governmental Authority without first giving Echo or Seller, as applicable, prior written notice; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall prevent a Tax Filing Party from settling any proposed deficiency or adjustment by any Governmental Authority based upon or arising out of the Final Purchase Price Allocation Schedule, if any, and no Tax Filing Party shall be required to litigate before any court any proposed deficiency or adjustment by any Governmental Authority challenging such Final Purchase Price Allocation, if any.

Section 5.6 Cooperation. After the Closing, the Seller and Echo shall, each at their own expense, cooperate with each other and with each other’s agents, including accounting firms and legal counsel, in connection with the preparation or audit of any Tax Return of the Company or Tax Return that includes taxable income of the Company; such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the requesting party’s reasonable request) the provision of records and information, including work papers of the Company and their respective auditors (but excluding records and information that are protected by recognized attorney-client privilege) related to the Seller or the Company, which are reasonably relevant to any Tax Returns, and shall include making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. Echo and the Seller agree to retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to the Company relating to the six year period (or portion thereof) prior to the Closing.

Section 5.7 Tax Claims.

(a) Notice of Tax Claims. Each party will promptly notify the other party in writing upon receipt by such party (or any of its Affiliates) of notice of any pending or threatened audit, examination, or Proceeding by a Governmental Authority in respect of which an indemnity may be sought pursuant to Article VI (a “Tax Claim”); provided, however, that the failure of such party to give prompt notice shall not relieve the other party of any of its obligations under Article VI except to the extent the other party can demonstrate actual prejudice as a result of such failure.

(b) Tax Claims for Pre-Closing Tax Periods. Seller shall control and resolve any Tax Claim relating to any taxable period that ends on or before the Closing Date at the Seller’s cost and expense; provided, however, that Echo shall have the right, at its own expense, to participate in, and consult with the Seller regarding any such Tax Claim. Seller may not settle, compromise or resolve any such Tax Claim without the consent of Echo, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed.

(c) Tax Claims for Straddle Periods and Post-Closing Tax Periods. Seller shall have the right participate jointly with Echo in representing the interest of the Company in any Tax Claim relating to a Straddle Period, if and to the extent that such period includes any Pre-Closing Tax Period, at the Seller’s cost and expense. Any settlement or other disposition of any Tax Claim relating to a Straddle Period may only be made with the consent of Seller and Echo, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed. Echo shall have sole control over any Tax Claim relating to a taxable period that begins after the Closing Date.

Section 5.8 Tax Refunds. Any Tax refund, credit or similar benefit (including any interest paid or credited with respect thereto) (a “Tax Refund”) relating to the Company for Taxes paid for any Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be the property of the Seller.

ARTICLE VI

Section 6.6 Time Limitations.

(a) The Echo Indemnified Persons shall have no right to recover any amounts under Section 6.2(a), unless on or before the date that is 18 months following the Closing Date, Echo notifies the Seller in writing of a claim or breach under Section 6.2(a) specifying, to the extent then known by Echo, the factual basis of that claim or breach in reasonable detail; provided, however, that any written notice of any claim or breach with respect to any Fundamental Representation or a claim for indemnification or reimbursement to the extent not arising under Section 6.2(a) may be made by Echo until such time that it is not permissible to bring such claim pursuant to Applicable Law.

(b) The Seller shall have no right to recover any amounts under Section 6.3(a), unless on or before the date that is 18 months following the Closing Date, the Seller notifies Echo in writing of a claim or breach under Section 6.3(a) specifying, to the extent then known by the Seller, the factual basis of that claim or breach in reasonable detail; provided, however, that any written notice of any claim or breach with respect to Section 3.2(a) (Authority), and Section 3.4 (Brokers or Finders), or a claim for indemnification or reimbursement to the extent not arising under Section 6.3(a), may be made by the Seller until such time that it is not permissible to bring such claim pursuant to Applicable Law.

Section 6.7 Third-Party Claims.

(a) In the event that a claim is made by a third party (a “Third-Party Claim”) against any Person in connection with which any Person is (or is anticipated to be) entitled to indemnity under Section 6.2 or Section 6.3 (an “Indemnified Person”; any Person required to provide

indemnity under this Agreement is referred to as an “Indemnifying Person”), then, (i) in the case of any claim under Section 6.2, Echo shall provide notice to the Seller, and (ii) in the case of any claim under Section 6.3, the Seller shall provide notice to Echo, in each such case promptly following the assertion of such Third-Party Claim (or, if later, the time at which such Third-Party Claim is anticipated to give rise to any indemnification obligations under this Agreement); provided that the failure to provide such notice will not relieve any Indemnifying Person of any liability that it may have to any Indemnified Person, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Person demonstrates that the defense of such Third-Party Claim is prejudiced by the Indemnified Person’s failure to give such notice.

(b) If an Indemnified Person gives notice pursuant to Section 6.7(a) of the assertion of a Third-Party Claim in connection with which any Indemnified Person is (or is anticipated to be) entitled to indemnity under Section 6.2 or Section 6.3, as applicable, the Indemnifying Person shall, at its sole cost and expense, be entitled to participate in the defense of such Third-Party Claim and, to the extent that it wishes, to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim with counsel satisfactory to the Indemnified Person. After notice from the Indemnifying Person to the Indemnified Person of its election to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Person shall not, so long as it diligently conducts such defense, be liable to the Indemnified Person under this Article VI for any fees or expenses related to the defense of such Third-Party Claim of other counsel engaged by the Indemnified Person to participate in the defense thereof, in each case subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Person in connection with the defense of such Third-Party Claim. If the Indemnifying Person assumes the defense of a Third-Party Claim, (i) such assumption will conclusively establish for purposes of this Agreement that the claims made in that Third-Party Claim are within the scope of and subject to indemnification, (ii) no compromise or settlement of such Third-Party Claims may be effected by the Indemnifying Person without the Indemnified Person’s consent unless (A) there is no finding or admission of any violation of any Legal Requirement or any violation of the rights of any Person; and (B) the sole relief provided is monetary damages that are paid in full by the Indemnifying Person and such compromise or settlement includes an unconditional release of the Indemnified Person; and (iii) the Indemnified Person shall have no liability with respect to any compromise or settlement of such Third-Party Claims effected without its consent. If notice is given to an Indemnifying Person of any Third-Party Claim in accordance with the first sentence of Section 6.7(a), and the Indemnifying Person does not, within ten Business Days after the Indemnified Person’s notice is given, give notice to the Indemnified Person of its election to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Person will be bound by any determination made in such Third-Party Claim or any compromise or settlement effected by the Indemnified Person.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (i) an Indemnified Person reasonably determines that it is likely that a Third-Party Claim may adversely affect it or its Affiliates in any material respect other than as a result of monetary damages for which it would be entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, (ii) the Indemnifying Person is also a Person against whom the Third-Party Claim is made and the Indemnified Person reasonably determines that joint representation would be inappropriate or (iii) the Indemnifying Person fails to provide reasonable assurance to the Indemnified Person of its financial capacity to defend such Third-Party Claim and provide indemnification with respect to such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnified Person may, by notice to the Indemnifying Person, assume the exclusive right to

defend, compromise or settle such Third-Party Claim, but the Indemnifying Person will not be bound by any determination of any Third-Party Claim so defended for the purposes of this Agreement or any compromise or settlement effected without its consent (which may not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(d) With respect to any Third-Party Claim subject to indemnification under this Article VI: (i) both the Indemnified Person and the Indemnifying Person, as the case may be, shall keep the other Person fully informed in all material respects of the status of such third-party claim and any related proceedings at all stages thereof where such Person is not represented by its own counsel, and (ii) the parties agree to render to each other such assistance as they may reasonably require of each other and to cooperate in good faith with each other in order to ensure the proper and adequate defense of any Third-Party Claim.

Section 6.8 Procedure For Indemnification – Other Claims. A claim for indemnification for any matter not involving a Third-Party Claim may be asserted by (i) in the case of any claim under Section 6.2, written notice by Echo to the Seller, and (ii) in the case of any claim under Section 6.3, written notice by the Seller to Echo.

Section 6.9 Exclusive Remedy. Except for a claim for Damages described in Section 6.4(d) or Section 6.5(d), the indemnification provided for in this Article VI shall be the exclusive post-Closing remedy available to an Indemnified Person in connection with any breach of this Agreement and/or any Damages arising out of the matters set forth in this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereunder; provided, however, that nothing herein will limit any Indemnified Person’s rights hereunder or otherwise to injunctive or other equitable relief to enforce its rights under this Agreement or otherwise in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall limit or restrict any Person who is a party to any agreement to be entered into at Closing pursuant to the terms hereof to obtain Damages or any other legal or equitable relief from any other Person who is a party to any such agreement in connection with any breach of such agreement pursuant to the terms of such other agreement (other than breaches of the Escrow Agreement, which will be subject to the indemnification provisions hereof).

Section 6.10 Materiality. For purposes of calculating the amount of Damages to which the Echo Indemnified Persons and the Seller are entitled under this Article VI (but not for purposes of determining whether a representation or warranty has been breached), the terms “material,” “materiality,” and “material adverse effect” will be disregarded.

Section 6.11 Treatment of Indemnification Payments. Any payments made pursuant to the indemnification obligations arising under this Agreement shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for all Tax purposes.

Section 6.12 Calculation of Damages. Payments to an Indemnified Person pursuant to this Article VI in respect of any Damages shall be reduced by any insurance proceeds actually received by the Indemnified Person in respect of any such claim (net of any applicable deductibles or similar costs of recovery and expenses incurred by any such Indemnified Person in connection with recovering such insurance proceeds).

ARTICLE VII

Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will apply to, be binding in all respects upon, and inure to the benefit of the successors and permitted assigns of the parties. Nothing in this Agreement will be construed to give any Person other than the parties to this Agreement any legal or equitable right under or with respect to this Agreement or any provision of this Agreement, except such rights as will inure to a successor or permitted assignee pursuant to this Section 7.2.

Section 7.4 Entire Agreement; Modification. This Agreement (together with the Annexes, Schedules and Exhibits attached to this Agreement and the other documents delivered pursuant to this Agreement) constitutes the entire agreement among the parties and supersedes all prior representations, warranties, understandings and agreements, whether written or oral, between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof (including the Confidentiality Agreement, which will terminate and be of no further force and effect as of the Closing, but will survive with respect to the confidentiality obligations thereunder in relation to the confidential information of Seller and MorCare; provided, however, that for purposes of clarification, in no event will Echo and its Affiliates (including the Company) have any obligations hereunder or under the Confidentiality Agreement with respect to confidential or other information owned and held by the Company as of the Closing). This Agreement may not be amended except by a written agreement signed by Echo and the Seller.

Section 7.5 Waiver. Neither the failure nor any delay by any party in exercising any right under this Agreement or the documents referred to in this Agreement will operate as a waiver of such right, and no single or partial exercise of any such right will preclude any other or further exercise of such right or the exercise of any other right. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, (a) no claim or right arising out of this Agreement or the documents referred to in this Agreement can be discharged by one party, in whole or in part, by a waiver or renunciation of the claim or right unless in writing signed by, in the case of any waiver requested by Echo, the Seller, and in the case of any waiver requested by the Seller, Echo; (b) no waiver that may be given by a party will be applicable except in the specific instance for which it is given; and (c) no notice to or demand on one party will be deemed to be a waiver of any obligation of such party or of the right of the party giving such notice or demand to take further action without notice or demand as provided in this Agreement or the documents referred to in this Agreement. The rights and remedies of the parties to this Agreement are cumulative and not alternative.

Section 7.6 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability; provided, however, that the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect without being impaired or invalidated in any way unless such invalid or unenforceable provision or clause is so significant as to materially affect the expectations of the parties regarding this Agreement. Otherwise, any invalid or unenforceable provision shall be replaced by Echo and the Seller with a valid provision which most closely approximates the intent and economic effect of the invalid or unenforceable provision.

Section 7.7 Headings; Construction. The headings of Articles and Sections in this Agreement are provided for convenience only and will not affect its construction or interpretation. All Annexes, Exhibits and Schedules to this Agreement are incorporated into and constitute an integral part of this Agreement as if fully set forth herein. All words used in this Agreement will be construed to be of such gender or number as the context requires. The statements in the Schedules, and those in any supplement thereto, relate only to the representations and warranties in the Section of this Agreement to which they expressly relate and not to any other representation or warranty in this Agreement. The words “including,” “include” or words of similar import shall deemed to be followed by “without limitation” and otherwise shall be considered illustrative and non-limiting. The language used in this Agreement will be construed, in all cases, according to its fair meaning, and not for or against any party hereto. The parties acknowledge that each party has reviewed this Agreement and that rules of construction, to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party, will not be available in the interpretation of this Agreement.

Section 7.8 Governing Law; Exclusive Jurisdiction. This Agreement, and any claims that arise out of or result from this Agreement, will be governed by and construed under the laws of the State of Delaware (“Applicable Law”) without regard to any conflicts of laws principles that would require the application of any other law. In any action or proceeding between any of the parties arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, each of the parties: (a) irrevocably and unconditionally consents and submits to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware; and (b) agrees that all claims in respect of such action or Proceeding must be heard and determined

exclusively in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware and irrevocably waives any immunity from the jurisdiction of such courts and any claim of improper venue, forum non conveniens or any similar objection which it might otherwise be entitled to raise in any such action or proceeding.

Section 7.9 Execution of Agreement; Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which will be deemed to be an original copy of this Agreement and all of which, when taken together, will be deemed to constitute one and the same agreement. The exchange of copies of this Agreement and of signature pages by facsimile, or by .pdf or similar imaging transmission, will constitute effective execution and delivery of this Agreement as to the parties and may be used in lieu of the original Agreement for all purposes. Signatures of the parties transmitted by facsimile, or by .pdf or similar imaging transmission, will be deemed to be their original signatures for any purpose whatsoever.

Section 7.10 Waiver of Jury Trial. The parties hereby waive any right to trial by jury in any action or proceeding arising out of or in any way pertaining to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, whether now or hereafter arising, and whether sounding in contract, tort, or otherwise. Any party may file a copy of this Section 7.10 with any court as written evidence of the knowing, voluntary and bargained agreement between the parties to irrevocably waive trial by jury, and that any proceeding or action whatsoever between the parties relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby will instead be tried in a court of competent jurisdiction by a judge sitting without a jury.

Section 7.11 Specific Enforcement. Each party acknowledges and agrees that the other party(ies) would be damaged irreparably in the event any of the provisions of this Agreement is not performed in accordance with its specific terms, and that any breach of this Agreement could not be adequately compensated by monetary damages. Accordingly, each party agrees that, in addition to any other right or remedy to which the non-breaching party may be entitled, at law or in equity, the non-breaching party will be entitled to enforce any provision of this Agreement by a decree of specific performance and to temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive relief to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of the provisions of this Agreement, without posting any bond or other undertaking.
