The parties hereto may change the address at which they are to receive notices hereunder, by notice in writing in the foregoing manner given to the other.
(b)Buyer Acknowledgement; Release. Buyer acknowledges that it is experienced, sophisticated and knowledgeable in the purchase and sale of securities of public companies such as the Borrower and is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of purchasing the Subordinated Loans and Subordinated Loan Documents and of protecting its own interests in connection with such sale. Buyer acknowledges that Pequot and its representatives may possess material information (“Excluded Information”) regarding the Subordinated Loans and Subordinated Loan Documents, the Borrower or its other outstanding securities that has not been provided to Buyer, including, without limitation, information received on a confidential basis directly or indirectly from the Borrower. Buyer acknowledges that it has not requested and does not wish to receive Excluded Information from Pequot and agrees that Pequot shall not have any liability to Buyer with respect to non-disclosure of Excluded Information. Buyer acknowledges that the Excluded Information may be indicative of a value of the Subordinated Loans and Subordinated Loan Documents that is substantially less than the Purchase Price reflected in the sale contemplated hereby or otherwise adverse to Buyer’s interest, and, therefore, such Excluded Information might be material to Buyer’s decision to purchase the Subordinated Loans and Subordinated Loan Documents. Buyer understands that Martin Hale, a managing director of the investment manager of Pequot, served on the Board of Directors of the Borrower as board designee of Pequot. Buyer understands the potential disadvantage to which Buyer is subject on account of a possible disparity of information as between Buyer and Pequot. Buyer acknowledges that in entering into this Addendum and purchasing the Subordinated Loans and Subordinated Loan Documents, it has not relied on any representations made by Pequot (other than those specifically set forth in Section 8(a) through 8(e)), nor has it relied on any obligation of Pequot to disclose any information it may possess. Buyer acknowledges that Pequot would not enter into this Addendum in the absence of the protections afforded to Pequot by this paragraph and the specific statement of non-reliance contained herein. Buyer hereby waives and releases and promises never to assert any claims or causes of action, whether or not now known, against Pequot or its predecessors, successors, or past or present subsidiaries, partners, officers, directors, agents, employees and assigns, with respect to the Subordinated Loans and Subordinated Loan Documents or Buyer’s purchase or ownership thereof (other than with respect to a breach of representation, warranty or covenant by such Pequot under this Addendum).
(c)No Waiver. No delay or omission by either party hereto in exercising any right or power arising from any default by the other party hereto shall be construed as a waiver of such default or as an acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power arising from any
6
default by the other party hereto. No waiver of any breach of any of the covenants or conditions contained in this Addendum shall be construed to be a waiver of or an acquiescence in or a consent to any previous or subsequent breach of the same or of any other condition or covenant.
(d)No Third Party Beneficiary. This Addendum is made for the sole benefit of Pequot and Buyer and their respective successors and permitted assigns, and no other person or persons shall have any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Addendum or any right to the exercise of any right or power of either party hereto or arising from any default by either party hereto.
(e)Attorney Fees and Costs. In the event any legal action is undertaken in order to enforce or interpret any provision of this Addendum, the prevailing party in such legal action, as determined by the court, shall be entitled to receive from the other party the prevailing party’s reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs.
(f)Time of Essence. Time is hereby declared to be of the essence of this Addendum and of every part hereof. When the context and construction so require, all words used in the singular herein shall be deemed to have been used in the plural and the masculine shall include the feminine and the neuter and vice versa.
(g)No Assignment to Third Party. Prior to Closing, this Addendum shall not be assigned by either party without the written consent of the other party, which consent may be withheld in such other party’s sole discretion.
(h)Integration; Entire Agreement. This Addendum and any documents executed in connection herewith or pursuant hereto constitute the entire understanding between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, superseding all prior written or oral understandings, and may not be terminated, modified or amended in any way except by a written agreement signed by each of the parties hereto.
(i)Counterparts. This Addendum may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together shall constitute but one and the same document.
(j)No Continuing Liability. Buyer and Pequot hereby acknowledge, confirm and agree that Buyer shall have no claims and Pequot shall have no liability whatsoever as a result of or otherwise in connection with any loss of value, notice of default, notice of sale or bankruptcy of Borrower under the Subordinated Loans.
(k)Legal Effect. The Subordinated Loan Documents remain in full force and effect. If any provision of this Addendum conflicts with applicable law, such provision shall be deemed severed from this Addendum, and the balance of this Addendum shall remain in full force and effect.
(l)Choice of Law and Venue; Jury Trial Waiver. This Addendum shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of New York, without regard to principles of conflicts of law. EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON
7
OR ARISING OUT OF THIS ADDENDUM OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREIN, INCLUDING CLAIMS BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT, BREACH OF DUTY AND ALL OTHER COMMON LAW OR STATUTORY BASES. Each party hereby submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in the County of New York, State of New York. If the jury waiver set forth in this Section is not enforceable, then any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Addendum or any of the transactions contemplated herein will be finally settled by binding arbitration in New York, New York in accordance with the then-current Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association by one arbitrator appointed in accordance with said rules. The arbitrator shall apply New York law to the resolution of any dispute, without reference to rules of conflicts of law or rules of statutory arbitration. Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for preliminary or interim equitable relief, or to compel arbitration in accordance with this paragraph. The expenses of the arbitration, including the arbitrator’s fees and expert witness fees, incurred by the parties to the arbitration, may be awarded to the prevailing party, in the discretion of the arbitrator, or may be apportioned between the parties in any manner deemed appropriate by the arbitrator. Unless and until the arbitrator decides that one party is to pay for all (or a share) of such expenses, both parties shall share equally in the payment of the arbitrator’s fees as and when billed by the arbitrator.
