Schedule A hereto (or at such other address for a party as shall be specified by like notice).

 

(c)                                  Interpretation.  When a reference is made in this Agreement to a Section or Schedule, such reference shall be to a Section of, or Schedule to, this Agreement unless otherwise indicated.  The headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.  Whenever the words “include”, “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation”.  The words “hereby”, “hereof”, “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement.  The words “date hereof” shall refer to the date of this Agreement.  The term “or” is not exclusive.  The word “extent” in the phrase “to the extent” shall mean the degree to which a subject or other thing extends, and such phrase shall not mean simply “if”.  The definitions contained in this Agreement are applicable to the singular as well as the plural forms of such terms.  Any agreement or instrument defined or referred to herein or in any agreement or instrument that is

referred to herein means such agreement or instrument as from time to time amended, modified or supplemented unless otherwise specified.  References to a person are also to its permitted successors and assigns.

 

(d)                                 Severability.  If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule or Law, or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party.  Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the extent possible.

 

(e)                                  Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement.  This Agreement shall become effective against any Stockholder when one or more counterparts have been executed by such Stockholder and delivered to C Co.  In respect of each Stockholder, this Agreement shall become effective against C Co when one or more counterparts have been signed by C Co and delivered to each Stockholder.  Each party need not sign the same counterpart.

 

(f)                                    Entire Agreement; No Third–Party Beneficiaries.  This Agreement (i) constitutes the entire agreement and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and (ii) is not intended to confer upon any person other than the parties hereto any rights or remedies hereunder.

 

(g)                                 Governing Law.  This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York regardless of the laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of law thereof, except to the extent the Laws of Delaware are mandatorily applicable to the Merger.

 

(h)                                 Assignment.  Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement shall be assigned, in whole or in part, by operation of Law or otherwise, by C Co without the prior written consent of each Stockholder or by any Stockholder without the prior written consent of C Co, and any purported assignment without such consent shall be void.  Subject to the preceding sentences, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the parties and their respective successors and assigns.

 

(i)                                     Enforcement.  All Actions arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be heard and determined exclusively in any federal or state court located in Jacksonville, Florida.  The parties hereby (i) submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of any state or federal court located in Jacksonville, Florida for the purpose of any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement brought by any party hereto, and (ii) irrevocably waive, and agree not to assert by way of motion, defense, or otherwise, in any such Action, any claim that it is not subject personally to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts, that its property is exempt or immune from attachment or execution, that the Action is brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue

of the Action is improper, or that this Agreement or the Merger may not be enforced in or by any of the above-named courts.

 

(j)                                     Specific Performance.  Each party hereto acknowledges that it will be impossible to measure in money the damages to the other parties if a party hereto fails to comply with any of the obligations imposed by this Agreement, that every such obligation is material and that, in the event of any such failure, the other parties will not have an adequate remedy at law or in damages.  Accordingly, each party hereto agrees that injunctive relief or any other equitable remedy, in addition to remedies at law or in damages, is the appropriate remedy for any such failure and will not oppose the granting of such relief on the basis that the other party has an adequate remedy at law or in damages.  Each party hereto agrees that it will not seek, and agrees to waive any requirement for, the securing or posting of a bond in connection with any other party’s seeking or obtaining such equitable relief.
