Entire Agreement; Amendment.

(a)

This Agreement, and the documents referred to in it, together with an agreement entered into by and among the Parties on the Closing Date constitute the entire agreement and understanding of the Parties and supersede any previous agreements made or existing between the Parties or any of them before this Agreement and relating to the subject matter of this Agreement (all of which shall be deemed to have been terminated by mutual consent with effect from the Execution Date and the Closing Date).

(b)

Each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that on entering into this Agreement, and the documents referred to herein, does not rely on, and shall have no remedy in respect of, any statement, representation, warranty or understanding (whether negligently or innocently made) of any person (whether party to this Agreement or not) other than as expressly set forth in this Agreement.

(c)

Except as otherwise permitted by this Agreement no change to its terms shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by or on behalf of all of the Parties.

9.2

Jurisdiction and Governing Law; Waiver of Jury Trial.

(a)

This Agreement shall be governed by and construed solely and exclusively in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware without regard to the conflicts of laws principles thereof. The Parties hereto hereby expressly and irrevocably agree that any suit or proceeding arising directly and/or indirectly pursuant to or under this Agreement shall be brought solely in a federal or state court located in New York County, New York. By its execution hereof, the Parties hereby covenant and irrevocably submit to the in personam jurisdiction of the federal and state courts located in New York County, New York, in each case located in New York County, New York, and agree that any process in any such action may be served upon any of them personally, or by certified mail or registered mail upon them or their agent, return receipt requested, with the same full force and effect as if personally served upon them in New York State. The Parties hereto expressly and irrevocably waive any claim that any such jurisdiction is not a convenient forum for any such suit or proceeding and any defense or lack of in personam jurisdiction with respect thereto. In the event of any such action or proceeding, the party prevailing therein shall be entitled to payment from the other party hereto of all of its reasonable counsel fees and disbursements and the reasonable fees and disbursement of accountants and experts. Notwithstanding the foregoing, certain Exhibits include provisions providing for exclusive jurisdiction of disputes in the courts of England and Wales which provisions are not affected by this Section 9.2. Similarly those exclusive jurisdiction clauses do not modify this Section 9.2.

(b)

Each party acknowledges and agrees that any controversy which may arise under this Agreement or the Transaction Documents is likely to involve complicated and difficult issues and, therefore, each such Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right it may have to a trial by jury in respect of any legal action, proceeding or counterclaim brought by either of the Parties hereto against the other in respect of any matter arising out or in connection with this Agreement, any Transaction Document or the contemplated Transactions. Each Party to this Agreement certifies and acknowledges that (i) no representative of any other Party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such other party would not seek to enforce the foregoing waiver in the event of a legal action, (ii) such Party has considered the implications of this waiver, (iii) such Party makes this waiver voluntarily, and (iv) such party has been induced to enter into this Agreement by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications in this Section 9.2(b).

9.3

Severability. In the event that any provision hereof would, under applicable law, be invalid or unenforceable in any respect (a) such provision shall be enforced to the maximum extent permissible under applicable law, and (b) the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect.

- 32 -

9.4

Each party shall pay the fees and expenses of its own advisers, counsel, accountants and other experts, if any, and all other expenses incurred by such party incident to the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and performance of the this Agreement and the Transaction Documents.

9.8

Appointment of the Sellers’ Representative.

(a)

Each of Stone and Smith hereby appoint and designate the Sellers’ Representative as their representative to act on behalf of each such Seller for certain purposes, as specified in this Section 9.9. Stone and Smith hereby grant to the Sellers’ Representative such powers and authority as are necessary to carry out the following functions as the representative of each such Seller: (i) to give and receive notices on behalf of each such Seller, (ii) to administer and resolve any claims arising under this Agreement, and (iii) to take such other actions on behalf of the Sellers as are contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents or otherwise deemed necessary or advisable by the Sellers’ Representative in furtherance of the contemplated Transactions. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 9.9 shall be deemed to expand or alter the joint and several nature of the indemnification obligations of the Sellers pursuant to Article VII hereof. The Purchaser and any Purchaser Indemnified Party (A) shall be entitled to rely on any action or decision of the Sellers’ Representative hereunder and (B) shall have no liability to any Seller for any actions taken pursuant to instructions within the authority of the Sellers’ Representative. The appointment of the Sellers’ Representative as the representative of the Sellers will be deemed coupled with an interest, and the Purchaser and any other Person may conclusively and absolutely rely, without inquiry, upon any actions of the Sellers’ Representative as the actions of the Sellers hereunder in all matters referred to in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document to which such Seller is a party. All that the Sellers’ Representative will do or cause to be done by virtue of his appointment as the representative of the Sellers pursuant to this Section 9.9 is hereby ratified and confirmed by each of the Sellers.

(b)

In performing the functions specified in this Agreement, the Sellers’ Representative shall not be liable to any Seller in the absence of gross negligence, willful misconduct or Fraud on the part of the Sellers’ Representative, provided, that no such limitation shall apply to any damages owed to the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates. Each Seller shall severally (based on such Seller’s respective percentage ownership of the Company as forth in Appendix A), and not jointly, indemnify and hold harmless the Sellers’ Representative from and against any loss, liability or expense incurred without gross negligence, willful misconduct or Fraud on the part of the Sellers’ Representative and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of his, her or its duties hereunder, including any out-of- pocket costs and expenses and legal fees and other legal costs reasonably incurred by the Sellers’ Representative (the “Sellers’ Representative’s Expenses”). No Party other than the Sellers shall have any liability for the Sellers’ Representative’s Expenses.

9.9

Guaranty. For the avoidance of any doubt, the Parties acknowledge and agree that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, the Guarantor guarantees all the payment obligations of the Purchaser under this Agreement including the Earn-out Payments and the Post Closing Adjustment to the extent provided for in this Agreement. Notwithstanding such guaranty, the Guarantor shall have all of the rights the Purchaser has against the Sellers and be entitled to assert any defenses against the Sellers which the Purchaser has against them. If the Purchaser fails to discharge its guaranteed obligations when due, the guaranteed parties may at any time and from time to time and so long as the Purchaser has failed to discharge the guaranteed obligations, take any and all actions available hereunder or under applicable law to collect the Guarantor’s liabilities hereunder in respect of such guaranteed obligations. The Guarantor’s liability hereunder is absolute, unconditional, irrevocable and continuing. This is a guarantee of payment and not of collection, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against the Guarantor to enforce this guarantee, irrespective of whether any action is brought against the Purchaser or whether the Purchaser is joined in any such action or actions.

9.10

Miscellaneous Provisions.

(a)

Fees and Expenses. Subject to Article VII and Section 9.2(a), each Party will bear all fees and expenses (including financial advisors’, attorneys’, accountants’ and other professional fees and expenses) incurred by such Party in connection with, arising from or relating to the negotiation, execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents and consummation of the contemplated Transactions except that the Purchaser shall pay the Sellers’ U.S legal fees up to a maximum amount of $10,000 in United States currency.

Any Party may waive compliance by another with any of the provisions of this Agreement provided that (i) no waiver of any provision shall be construed as a waiver of any other provision, (ii) any waiver must be in writing and shall be strictly construed, and (iii) a waiver in any one instance shall not be deemed a waiver in any subsequent instance.

(d)

Third Party Beneficiates; Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

This Agreement may only be enforced against, and any Action based upon, arising out of, or related to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement, may only be brought against, the Parties and then only with respect to the specific obligations set forth herein with respect to such Party.
