Section 1.5 Assumed Lease and Assumed Contracts; Cure Amount.

(a)            At such time as is specified in the Sale Order, pursuant to Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, Seller shall assume and assign to Buyer and Buyer shall assume from Seller, the Assumed Lease and the Assumed Contracts. The amounts necessary, pursuant to Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, to cure any and all defaults and to pay all actual or pecuniary losses that have resulted from any such defaults under any Assumed Lease or Assumed Contract, in each case as and when finally determined by the Bankruptcy Court pursuant to the procedures set forth in the Sale Order and this Agreement (such aggregate amount, the “Cure Amount”) shall be paid by Buyer; provided however that (a) Buyer shall have no obligation to pay more than an aggregate amount of $53,233 (the “Buyer’s Cure Amount”) for all Assumed Leases and Assumed Contracts listed on Schedule 1.1(i) as of the Effective Date plus any Cure Amount for Assumed Leases and Assumed Contracts that may be added to Schedule 1.1(i) after the Effective Date in accordance with the terms below, in each case as and when finally determined by the Bankruptcy Court pursuant to the procedures set forth in the Sale Order and this Agreement and (b) Seller shall be responsible for paying any difference (such difference, the “Seller’s Cure Amount”) between the Buyer’s Cure Amount and the Cure Amount that is necessary, pursuant to Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, to cure any and all defaults and to pay all actual or pecuniary losses that have resulted from any such defaults only under any Assumed Lease or Assumed Contract that is listed on Schedule 1.1(i) as of the Effective Date. Schedule 1.5(a) contains Seller’s estimate as of the Effective Date of the Cure Amount. Subject to the prior written consent of Seller in Seller’s sole discretion, Buyer may amend Schedule 1.1(i) to add any executory contracts of Seller at any time prior to the date of a final hearing to approve the sale of the Acquired Assets (the “Sale Hearing”). Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 1.5(d) and upon written notice to Seller, Buyer may amend Schedule 1.1(i) and Schedule 1.2(r) to reject any executory contracts of Seller at any time prior to the date of the Sale Hearing; provided that the definition or interpretation of (i) “Acquired Assets” for the purposes of Section 1.3 only and (ii) “Assumed Liabilities” and “Excluded Liabilities” for any purposes under this Agreement, shall not reflect any such amendment without the prior written consent of Seller. For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 1.5(a), Seller shall have no liability under this Agreement in respect of any Cure Amounts relating to Assumed Contracts that are not listed on Schedule 1.1(i) as of the Effective Date.

(b)            Seller shall timely serve the motion seeking entry of the Sale Order to all parties to Leases and Contracts and, subject to Section 1.6 and the performance of Buyer’s obligations in Section 5.2, Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Assumed Lease and Assumed Contracts to be assumed by Seller and assigned to Buyer pursuant to Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, and Seller shall comply with all requirements under Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code necessary to assign and delegate to Buyer all of Seller’s rights and obligations under the Assumed Lease and Assumed Contracts.

(c)            Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, if for any reason Buyer fails to pay the Buyer’s Cure Amount or Seller fails to pay the Seller’s Cure Amount in respect of any Assumed Contract or Assumed Lease when due and payable pursuant to this Agreement, the Sale Order or any other Order of the Bankruptcy Court, (i) the other party may pay or otherwise satisfy such Cure Amount or any other liability or obligation under such Assumed Contract or Assumed Lease and shall be reimbursed by the party responsible to make such payment within five (5) Business Days of notice of such payment (ii) each party shall indemnify and hold harmless the other party in respect of such Cure Amount, liability or obligation as well as any expenses (including legal fees and expenses) incurred by the other in defending any claim for payment of the Cure Amount or any other liability or obligation arising under such Contract or Lease asserted by the counterparty thereto and (iii) Seller or Buyer may reject, and nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit Seller or Buyer from rejecting, such Contract or Lease.

(d)            Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, at any time prior to the Sale Hearing, Buyer may designate in writing to Seller any Contract or Lease as an Excluded Liability (and amend Schedule 1.2(r) for such purposes only), only if the rejection of such Contract or Lease would not give rise to a Claim in favor of the counterparty thereto having administrative priority or any other priority senior to a general unsecured Claim against the bankruptcy estate of Seller (the “Qualifying Excluded Contracts and Leases”). Seller may reject, and nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit Seller from rejecting, the Qualifying Excluded Contracts and Leases.

Section 1.6 Non-Assignment of Acquired Assets. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, this Agreement shall not constitute an agreement to assign or transfer and shall not effect the assignment or transfer of any Acquired Asset if (a) an attempted assignment thereof, without the approval, authorization or consent of, or granting or issuance of any license or permit by, any party thereto other than Seller (each such action, a “Necessary Consent”), would constitute a breach thereof (after giving effect to any waiver by the applicable counterparty, or any elimination of such approval, authorization or consent requirement by operation of the Sale Order) or in any way adversely affect the rights or obligations of Buyer thereunder and such Necessary Consent is not obtained and (b) the Bankruptcy Court shall not have entered an Order providing that such Necessary Consent is not required because the transfer thereof shall be deemed by the Bankruptcy Court to be (x) effective and (y) not a breach thereof, notwithstanding the failure to obtain such Necessary Consent. In such event, Seller and Buyer will use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the Necessary Consents with respect to any such Acquired Asset or any claim or right or any benefit arising thereunder for the assignment thereof to Buyer as Buyer may reasonably request; provided, however, that Seller shall not be obligated to pay any consideration therefor to any third party from whom consent or approval is requested (other than the applicable Cure Amount) or to initiate any litigation or legal proceedings to obtain any such consent or approval. If such Necessary Consent is not obtained, or if such Acquired Asset or an attempted assignment thereof would otherwise be ineffective or would adversely affect the rights of Seller thereunder so that Buyer would not in fact receive all such rights, Seller and Buyer will cooperate in a mutually agreeable arrangement, to the extent feasible and at no out-of-pocket expense to Seller or Buyer, under which Buyer would obtain the benefits and assume the obligations (to the extent otherwise constituting Assumed Liabilities hereunder) thereunder in accordance with this Agreement, including subcontracting, sublicensing or subleasing to Buyer, or under which Seller would enforce for the benefit of, and at the direction of, Buyer, with Buyer assuming Seller’s obligations (to the extent otherwise constituting Assumed Liabilities hereunder), any and all rights of Seller thereunder.

Section 1.7 Further Conveyances and Assumptions.

(a)            Seller shall deliver to Buyer at the Closing such Employee Records as is reasonably necessary for Buyer to transition the Transferred Employees into Buyer’s records, as well as all other Documents included in the Acquired Assets.

(b)            At the Closing, and from time to time thereafter, Seller and Buyer shall, and Seller and Buyer shall cause their respective Affiliates to, execute, acknowledge and deliver all such further actions, as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate to sell, transfer, convey, assign and deliver fully to Buyer and its respective successors or permitted assigns, all of the properties, rights, titles, interests, estates, remedies, powers and privileges intended to be conveyed to Buyer under this Agreement and to assure fully to Seller and its successors and permitted assigns, the assumption of the liabilities and obligations intended to be assumed by Buyer under this Agreement, and to otherwise make effective or evidence the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 1.8      Conflicts with Other Bidders. In the event of any conflict regarding the Acquired Assets or the Assumed Liabilities between this Agreement and agreements governing other sales of the Seller’s assets in the Bankruptcy Case (the “Other Agreements”), Buyer shall cooperate in good faith with any other purchasers of Seller’s assets pursuant to such Other Agreements, whether before or after the Closing Date, to ensure that all assets or liabilities are appropriately apportioned between Buyer and such other purchasers in order to reflect the intent of Buyer and such other purchasers hereunder and thereunder.

ARTICLE 2. CONSIDERATION

Section 2.1 Consideration. The aggregate consideration for the sale and transfer to Buyer of the Acquired Assets (the “Purchase Price”) shall be:

(a)          Thirty Million Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars (US$ 30,500,000) (the “Gross Closing Cash Payment”), to be adjusted pursuant to Section 2.2(b), and paid and delivered in accordance with Section 3.3(a); and

Section 2.2 Good Faith Deposit.

(a)            Concurrently with or prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Buyer shall have deposited with Seller an amount equal to Thirty Million Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars (US$ 30,500,000) by wire transfer of immediately-available funds (the “Good Faith Deposit”). The Good Faith Deposit shall not be subject to any Lien, attachment, trustee process or any other judicial process of any creditor of either of Seller or Buyer and shall be deposited in a segregated deposit account of Seller and held in trust to be administered solely in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Bidding Procedures Order. Upon the Closing, the Good Faith Deposit shall be an Excluded Asset and shall not be subject to any restrictions under this Agreement.

(b)            If the Closing occurs, the Gross Closing Cash Payment shall be reduced by the amount of the Good Faith Deposit (such resulting amount, the “Net Closing Cash Payment”), to be paid and delivered in accordance with Section 3.3(a).

(c)            If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 10.1, the Good Faith Deposit shall, other than if a release of the Good Faith Deposit to Seller shall have previously occurred in accordance with Section 2.2(d), be repaid to Buyer or retained by Seller in the amounts and at the times set forth in Section 10.2(a) through Section 10.2(c).

(d)            Unless otherwise provided in Section 10.2(b), upon entry of the Sale Order, the Good Faith Deposit shall become non-refundable and shall be retained by the Seller.

(e)            Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, in the event that the Closing does not occur on or before the seventh (7th) calendar day from the date of entry of the Sale Order by the Bankruptcy Court, Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars ($500,000) of the Good Faith Deposit shall, within three (3) Business Days of such seventh (7^th) calendar day, be returned by Seller to Buyer; provided, however, that such failure to occur of the Closing shall not have resulted from Buyer’s material breach of its obligations under this Agreement.

Section 6.3 Further Assurances. At the request and the sole expense of the requesting party, either party shall, at any time after the Closing Date, execute and deliver such documents as the other party or its counsel may reasonably request to effectuate the purposes of this Agreement.

ARTICLE 7. EMPLOYEES AND EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

Section 7.1 Transferred Employees. Within two (2) days after entry of the Sale Order, Buyer shall offer employment, effective as of the Closing, to a significant portion of the Employees. Each such offer shall include a waiver of any costs related to the termination of employment of such Employees by Seller in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including without limitation any severance or WARN Act payments), as against Buyer, Seller and their respective Affiliates. If the Closing occurs, any such Employees who accept any such offer no later than five (5) days after the Closing Date are referred to in this Agreement as the “Transferred Employees”.

Section 7.2 Employment Tax Reporting. With respect to Transferred Employees, Buyer and Seller shall use the standard procedure set forth in Revenue Procedure 2004-53, 2004-34 I.R.B. 320, for purposes of employment Tax reporting.

Section 7.3 Benefits. From and after the Closing (or with respect to any Transferred Employee who is on an approved leave of absence as of the Closing, from and after his or her return to work), Buyer shall, or shall cause an Affiliate of Buyer to, provide (whether under existing or newly-established Buyer compensation or benefits plans (collectively, the “Buyer Plans”)) to each Transferred Employee, and to their eligible dependents, benefits under the Buyer Plans that are no less favorable to the applicable Transferred Employee in the aggregate than the practice, plans, policies or Contracts in effect for such Transferred Employee immediately prior to the Closing. If applicable, for purposes of eligibility, vesting and the calculation of the eligibility for and amount of vacation, sick pay, severance or other benefits under the Buyer Plans providing benefits to Transferred Employees, Buyer shall credit each Transferred Employee with his or her years of service with Seller to the same extent as such Transferred Employee was entitled immediately prior to the Closing to credit for such service under any similar Employee Benefit Plan; provided, however, that no such service recognition shall result in any duplication of benefits or apply to any defined benefit pension plans. In addition, to the extent it has the right to do so, Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (a) waive under any health or welfare plans maintained by Buyer for Transferred Employees any pre-existing condition limitations and eligibility waiting periods for Transferred Employees and their eligible dependents (but only to the extent such pre- existing condition limitations, eligibility waiting periods and evidence of insurability requirements were satisfied under Seller’s comparable health plans as of the Closing Date), and (b) provide that dollar amount of all eligible expenses incurred by Transferred Employees and their eligible dependents during the calendar year in which the Closing Date occurs shall be taken into account for purposes of satisfying the applicable deductibles, co-payments or out-of-pocket limitations for such calendar year under the relevant Buyer’s health or welfare plans.

Section 7.4      WARN Act. Buyer and Seller agree that:

(a)            Buyer shall assume all obligations and liabilities for provision of notice or payment in lieu of notice or any applicable penalties under the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act (the “WARN Act”) or any similar state or local law arising on account of Buyer’s acquisition of the Acquired Assets or termination of any of the Transferred Employees. Buyer will indemnify Seller and its Affiliates and their respective Related Persons against and hold each of them harmless from any and all damages incurred or suffered by Seller or any of its Affiliates or any of their respective Related Persons with respect to the WARN Act or any similar state or local Law, arising as a result of Buyer’s acquisition of the Acquired Assets or otherwise related to the Transferred Employees, that would constitute administrative and priority claims in the Bankruptcy Case. For the avoidance of doubt, Buyer does not assume obligations and liabilities for WARN Act compliance with respect to Excluded Assets or Seller’s disposition thereof.

(b)            Buyer shall not, at any time prior to ninety (90) days after the Closing Date, effectuate a “plant closing” or “mass layoff” (as those terms are defined in the WARN Act) affecting the Transferred Employees without complying in full with the WARN Act.

Section 7.5      Third Party Beneficiary. No provision of this Article 7 shall:

(a)            create any third party beneficiary or other rights in any Employee or former employee (including any beneficiary or dependent thereof) of Seller, Buyer or any other Person;

(b)            constitute or create, or be deemed to constitute or create, an employment agreement or employee benefit plan;

(c)            constitute or be deemed to constitute an amendment to any employee benefit plan sponsored or maintained by Seller or Buyer; or

(d)            alter or change the employment at-will status of any Employees.

ARTICLE 8. TAXES.

Section 8.1 Taxes Related to Purchase of Assets. All recording and filing fees and all federal, state and local sales, transfer, excise, value-added or other similar Taxes, including, without limitation, all state and local Taxes in connection with the transfer of the Acquired Assets, but excluding all income taxes and other fees based upon gain realized by Seller as a result of the sale of the Acquired Assets (collectively, “Transaction Taxes”), that may be imposed by reason of the sale, transfer, assignment and delivery of the Acquired Assets, and which are not exempt under Section 1146(c) of the Bankruptcy Code, shall be paid by Buyer. Buyer and Seller agree to cooperate to determine the amount of Transaction Taxes payable in connection with the transactions contemplated under this Agreement, and Seller agrees to assist Buyer reasonably in the preparation and filing of any and all required returns for or with respect to such Transaction Taxes with any and all appropriate taxing authorities.

Section 8.2      Cooperation on Tax Matters.

(a)            Buyer and Seller agree to furnish or cause to be furnished to each other, as promptly as practicable, such information and assistance relating to the Acquired Assets and the Assumed Liabilities as is reasonably necessary for the preparation and filing of any Tax Return, claim for refund or other required or optional filings relating to Tax matters, for the preparation for and proof of facts during any Tax audit, for the preparation for any Tax protest, for the prosecution or defense of any suit or other proceeding relating to Tax matters and for the answer to any governmental or regulatory inquiry relating to Tax matters.

(b)            Buyer agrees to retain possession, at its own expense, of all accounting, business, financial and Tax records and information (i) relating to the Acquired Assets or the Assumed Liabilities that are in existence on the Closing Date and transferred to Buyer hereunder and (ii) coming into existence after the Closing Date that relate to the Acquired Assets or the Assumed Liabilities before the Closing Date, for a period of at least six (6) years from the Closing Date, and will give Seller notice and an opportunity to retain any such records in the event that Buyer determines to destroy or dispose of them after such period. In addition, from and after the Closing Date, Buyer agrees that it will provide access to Seller and its attorneys, accountants and other representatives (after reasonable notice and during normal business hours and without charge) to those portions of books, records, documents and other information that relate solely to the Acquired Assets or the Assumed Liabilities and time periods on or prior to Closing as Seller may reasonably deem necessary to (x) properly prepare for, file, prove, answer, prosecute and/or defend any such Tax Return, claim, filing, tax audit, tax protest, suit, proceeding or answer or (y) administer or complete any cases under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code of Seller. Such access shall include, without limitation, access to any computerized information retrieval systems relating to the Acquired Assets or the Assumed Liabilities as they existed on or before the Closing, unless such access cannot be limited to the appropriate information, in which case, Buyer may, at its reasonable discretion, retrieve electronic data compilations of the appropriate information.

(c)            If Seller receives any refund, overpayment or rebate of Taxes (including any refund, overpayment or rebate relating to any Straddle Period) that is attributable to Taxes paid by Buyer, it shall promptly, and in no case later than ten (10) Business Days after receipt thereof, pay such refund, overpayment or rebate over to Buyer net of any reasonable cost or expense incurred in connection with such refund, overpayment or rebate.

(d)            Seller shall prepare and file all Income Tax Returns for any Pre-Closing Taxes, whether or not such Tax Returns are required to be filed after the Closing Date, and Seller shall timely pay all Taxes reflected on such Tax Returns. Buyer shall prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and filed (with Seller’s reasonable cooperation) all Tax Returns with respect to Post- Closing Taxes. Buyer and Seller shall reasonably cooperate in the preparation of any Tax Returns described in this Section 8.2(d).

(e)            Buyer and Seller will cooperate and Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Buyer or any Buyer Acquisition Vehicle to be registered with the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau as a “manufacturer” for purposes of the Firearms Ammunition and Excise Tax on or before the Closing Date.

Section 8.3 Allocation of Purchase Price. Promptly (and in any event within sixty (60) days) following the Closing Date, Seller shall deliver a schedule to Buyer allocating the Purchase Price among the Acquired Assets (the “Allocation”). Seller and Buyer will cooperate to resolve any disputes regarding the Allocation and to file with the Internal Revenue Service their respective Forms 8594 as provided for in Section 1060 of the Code on a basis consistent with the Allocation, and the Allocation shall be reflected on any Tax Returns required to be filed as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(b)            By Seller, by notice to Buyer, on or after October 31, 2020 (the “Outside Date”), if the condition contained in Section 9.1(a) has not been satisfied or waived; provided, however, that Seller shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 10.1(b) if Seller is then in material breach of this Agreement;

(c)            By Seller, by notice to Buyer, if Seller has previously provided Buyer with written notice of Buyer’s failure to perform any material covenant of Buyer contained in this Agreement and Buyer has failed within five (5) days after such notice to perform such covenant; provided, however, that Seller shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 10.1(c) if Seller is then in material breach of this Agreement;

(g)            By Buyer, by notice to Seller, after the Outside Date, if any condition contained in Section 9.2(c) or Section 9.2(d) has not been satisfied or waived; provided, however, that Buyer shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 10.1(g) if Buyer is then in material breach of this Agreement;

(h)            By Buyer, by notice to Seller, or by Seller, by notice to Buyer, if the Bankruptcy Court enters an Order dismissing or converting the Bankruptcy Case into a case under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code, appointing a trustee in the Bankruptcy Case, or appointing an examiner with enlarged power related to the operation of the Business (beyond those set forth in Section 1106(a)(3) or (4) of the Bankruptcy Code) under Section 1106(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, or the occurrence of any of the foregoing;

(i)            By Seller, five (5) Business Days after notice to Buyer, if the Bankruptcy Court has not entered the Sale Order by the date that is 60 calendar days after the Petition Date; and

(j)            Automatically, upon the earlier of (i) Seller consummating an Alternative Transaction, and (ii) sixty (60) days following the date upon which the Bankruptcy Court issues a Final Order approving an Alternative Transaction.

Section 10.2      Effect of Termination; Remedies.

(a)            In the event of termination pursuant to Section 10.1, this Agreement shall become null and void and have no effect (other than Article 10, Article 11, and Article 12, which shall survive termination), with no liability on the part of Seller or Buyer, or their respective Affiliates or Related Persons, with respect to this Agreement, except for (i) the liability of a party for its own expenses pursuant to Section 11.4, (ii) the obligation of Buyer under Section 6.1(a) and (iii) any liability provided for in Section 10.2(b) through Section 10.2(d), inclusive.

(b)            If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 10.1(a), Section 10.1(d) (other than a termination due to the condition contained in Section 9.1(c)(ii)), Section 10.1(e), Section 10.1(f), Section 10.1(g) (other than a termination due to the conditions contained in Section 9.2(c)(ii)), Section 10.1(h), Section 10.1(i), or Section 10.1(j) then the Good Faith Deposit shall, within three (3) Business Days, be returned by Seller to Buyer.

(c)            If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 10.1(b), Section 10.1(c), Section 10.1(d) (other than a termination due to the conditions contained in Section 9.1(c)(i) or Section 9.1(d)), or Section 10.1(g) (other than a termination due to the conditions contained in Section 9.2(c)(i) or Section 9.2(d)), then Seller may, at its sole election (i) within three (3) Business Days, retain the Good Faith Deposit, as liquidated damages (the “Break Fee”) or (ii) without limitation to Seller’s remedies under clause (i) of this Section 10.2(c) require Buyer to specifically perform under the terms of this Agreement and each of the Ancillary Agreements to which Buyer is a party.

(d)            The provisions of this Agreement are uniquely related to Seller's and its Affiliates' desire to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and such transactions represent a unique business opportunity at a unique time for the Seller and its Affiliates. As a result, irreparable damage would occur to Seller and its Affiliates in the event that any of the obligations of Buyer under this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms. Although liquidated or other monetary damages may be available for the breach of covenants and undertakings contained in this Agreement, monetary damages would be difficult to ascertain and an inadequate remedy therefor. Accordingly, if Buyer breaches or threatens to breach any provision of this Agreement, then without limitation to Seller's rights under clause (i) of Section 10.2(c) Seller shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, specific performance and any and all other equitable relief to prevent or restrain breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement, this being in addition to any other remedies to which it is entitled at Law or equity. If Seller seeks an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement or seeking to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, Seller shall not be required to provide, furnish or post any bond or other security in connection with or as a condition to obtaining any such Order or injunction. Buyer irrevocably waives any right it may have to require the provision, furnishing or posting of any such bond or other security. If any action or proceeding should be brought in equity to enforce the provisions of this Agreement, Buyer shall not allege, and hereby waives the defense, that there is an adequate remedy at Law.

(e)            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, but without limitation to the right to enforce covenants as set forth in Article 6 (if the Closing shall have occurred) (i) Seller’s entitlement to the Break Fee (to the extent provided for in this Agreement) will constitute liquidated damages (and not a penalty) and, if Seller retains such amount, then notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, such Break Fee shall be the sole and exclusive remedy available to Seller and any other Person against Buyer, its Subsidiaries, and any of their respective Affiliates in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (including as a result of the failure to consummate the Closing or for a breach or failure to perform hereunder or otherwise) and none of Buyer, its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Affiliates shall have any further liability relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, and (ii) Buyer’s entitlement to the reimbursement of the Good Faith Deposit (to the extent provided for in this Agreement) shall be the sole and exclusive remedy (at law, in equity or otherwise) available to Buyer and any other Person against Seller, its Subsidiaries, and any of their respective Affiliates in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (including as a result of the failure to consummate the Closing or for a breach or failure to perform hereunder or otherwise) and none of Seller, its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Affiliates shall have any further liability relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. Each party acknowledges that the agreements contained in this Section 10.2 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, that without these agreements such party would not have entered into this Agreement.

ARTICLE 11. MISCELLANEOUS.

Section 11.1 Successors and Assigns. Prior to the Closing, neither Buyer nor Seller shall assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the other, and any such attempted assignment without such prior written consent shall be void and of no force and effect; provided that if Buyer wishes, upon prior written notice to Seller, to assign its rights, obligations and liabilities hereunder no later than ten (10) days prior to the Closing Date to a Buyer Acquisition Vehicle, such prior written consent of Seller shall not unreasonably be withheld, conditioned or delayed. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and shall be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns of the parties to this Agreement.

Section 11.2 Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be construed, performed and enforced in accordance with, and governed by, the Laws of the State of Delaware (without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of Laws thereof), except to the extent that the Laws of such State are superseded by the Bankruptcy Code. For so long as Seller is subject to the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court, the parties to this Agreement irrevocably elect as the sole judicial forum for the adjudication of any matters arising under or in connection with the Agreement, and consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of, the Bankruptcy Court. After Seller is no longer subject to the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court, the parties to this Agreement irrevocably elect as the sole judicial forum for the adjudication of any matters arising under or in connection with this Agreement, and consent to the jurisdiction of, any state or federal court having competent jurisdiction over the Northern District of Alabama.

Section 11.3 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (A) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE SUCH WAIVER, (B) IT UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF SUCH WAIVER, (C) IT MAKES SUCH WAIVER VOLUNTARILY, AND (D) IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 11.3.

Section 11.4 Expenses. Except as expressly otherwise provided herein, each of the parties to this Agreement shall pay its own expenses in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including, without limitation, any legal and accounting fees, whether or not the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated. Buyer shall pay the cost of any surveys (without limitation to the restriction in Section 5.1(b)(i)), title insurance policies and title reports ordered by Buyer.

Section 11.5 Broker’s and Finder’s Fees. Each of the parties to this Agreement represents and warrants that it has dealt with no broker or finder in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement other than as set forth on Schedule 11.5, whose fees and expenses shall, as between the parties to this Agreement, be the responsibility of the party indicated on Schedule 11.5, and, to such party’s Knowledge, no other broker or other Person is entitled to any commission or broker’s or finder’s fee in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements.

Section 11.6 Severability. In the event that any part of this Agreement is declared by any court or other judicial or administrative body to be null, void or unenforceable, said provision shall survive to the extent it is not so declared, and all of the other provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect only if, after excluding the portion deemed to be unenforceable, the remaining terms shall provide for the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in substantially the same manner as originally set forth at the later of the date this Agreement was executed or last amended.

Section 11.7      Notices.
