The words “include,” “includes” and “including” when used herein shall be deemed in each case to be followed by the words “without limitation.” The table of contents and headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

 

6.2 Counterparts.

 

This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other party, it being understood that all parties need not sign the same counterpart.

 

6.3 Entire Agreement; Assignment.

 

This Agreement, the Disclosure Schedule and the documents and instruments and other agreements among the parties hereto referenced herein: (i) constitute the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings both written and oral, among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof; (ii) are not intended to confer upon any other person any rights or remedies hereunder; and (iii) shall not be assigned by operation of law or otherwise, except that the C Corp may, upon two (2) Business Days’ prior written notice to the LLC assign its rights and delegate its obligations hereunder to a wholly-owned Subsidiary as long as the C Corp remains primarily liable for all of the LLC’s obligations hereunder and such assignment and/or delegation does not adversely affect the characterization of the Merger as a statutory merger of the LLC with and into the C Corp for federal income tax purposes.

 

6.4 Severability

 

In the event that any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement will continue in full force and effect and the application of such provision to other persons or circumstances will be interpreted so as reasonably to effect the intent of the parties hereto. The parties further agree to replace such void or unenforceable provision of this Agreement with a valid and enforceable provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such void or unenforceable provision.

 

6.5 Other Remedies

 

Any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a party will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by law or equity upon such party, and the exercise by a party of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy.

 

6.6 No Third-Party Beneficiaries

 

This Agreement, the Schedules hereto, the Disclosure Schedule and the documents and instruments and other agreements among the parties hereto referenced herein are not intended to, and shall not, confer upon any other person any rights or remedies hereunder, nor create any right, claim or remedy of any nature whatsoever, including, but not limited to, any rights of employment for any specified period and/or any employee benefits in favor of any Person, union, association, Continuing Employee, key employee, employer, other employee or former employee, contractor or other entity, other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

 

 

6.7 Governing Law

 

This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, regardless of the laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of laws thereof.

 

6.8 Gender and Number.

 

As used in this Agreement, the masculine, feminine and neuter gender, and singular and plural number, shall be deemed to include the others wherever the context so indicates or requires.

 

6.9 Rules of Construction.

 

The parties hereto agree that they have been represented by counsel during the negotiation and execution of this Agreement and, therefore, waive the application of any law, regulation, holding or rule of construction providing that ambiguities in an agreement or other document will be construed against the party drafting such agreement or document. Nothing in the Disclosure Schedule hereto shall be deemed adequate to disclose an exception to a representation or warranty made herein unless the Disclosure Schedule identifies the exception with reasonable particularity and describes the relevant facts in reasonable detail. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the mere listing (or inclusion of a copy) of a document or other item shall not be deemed adequate to disclose an exception to a representation or warranty made herein (unless the representation or warranty has to do with the existence of the document or other item itself). The Disclosure Schedule shall be arranged in separate parts corresponding to the numbered and lettered sections contained herein permitting such disclosure, and the information disclosed in any numbered or lettered part shall be deemed to relate to and to qualify only (a) the particular representation or warranty set forth in the corresponding numbered or lettered section herein permitting such disclosure and (b) any other representation or warranty that is contained in this Agreement to the extent the relevance of such disclosure is reasonably apparent on its face (without any independent knowledge on the part of the reader regarding the matter disclosed or any reference to any underlying document) to such other representation or warranty. The parties intend that each representation, warranty and covenant contained herein shall have independent significance. If any party has breached any representation, warranty or covenant contained herein in any respect, the fact that there exists another representation, warranty or covenant relating to the same subject matter (regardless of the relative levels of specificity) that the party has not breached shall not detract from or mitigate the fact that the party is in breach of the first representation, warranty or covenant. In addition, each of the parties acknowledges and agrees that any purchase price adjustment as a result of the application of any provision of this Agreement, the Related Agreements or any of the other agreements contemplated hereby or thereby does not prejudice or limit in any respect whatsoever any party’s rights to indemnification under any other provision of this Agreement, the Related Agreements or any other agreements contemplated hereby or thereby, except to the extent that such a recovery would result in a duplication of damages. All references to dollars or “$” shall refer to U.S. dollars unless otherwise indicated.
