obligations of the parties or the practical realization of the benefits that would otherwise be conferred upon the parties. The parties will endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s) with a
valid provision(s), the effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s).

warranties, agreements and covenants shall survive the Closing.

obligations of the Holder under this Agreement are several and not joint with the obligations of any Other Holder, and the Holder shall not be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any Other Holder under any Other
Agreement. Nothing contained herein or in any Other Agreement, and no action taken by the Holder pursuant hereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Holder and Other Holders as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of
entity, or create a presumption that the Holder and Other Holders are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any Other Agreement and the Company acknowledges
that, to the best of its knowledge, the Holder and the Other Holders are not acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any Other Agreement. The Company and the Holder
confirm that the Holder has independently participated in the negotiation of the transactions
contemplated hereby with the advice of its own counsel and advisors. The Holder shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including, without limitation, the rights
arising out of this Agreement, and it shall not be necessary for any Other Holder to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.
(m) Equal Treatment Acknowledgement; Most Favored Nations. The Company hereby represents and warrants as of the date hereof and
covenants and agrees that, during the period commencing on the date hereof until the six month anniversary of the date hereof, none of the terms offered to any Person with respect to the Transactions, including, without limitation with respect to
any consent, release, amendment, settlement, or waiver relating to the Transactions or any Other Warrant (each an Settlement Document ), is or will be more favorable to such Person (other than any reimbursement of legal fees) than
those of the Holder and this Agreement. If, and whenever on or after the date hereof, the Company enters into a Settlement Document, then the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall be, without any further action by the Holder or the Company,
automatically amended and modified in an economically and legally equivalent manner such that the Holder shall receive the benefit of the more favorable terms and/or conditions (as the case may be) set forth in such Settlement Document, provided
that upon written notice to the Company at any time the Holder may elect not to accept the benefit of any such amended or modified term or condition, in which event the term or condition contained in this Agreement shall apply to the Holder as it
was in effect immediately prior to such amendment or modification as if such amendment or modification never occurred with respect to the Holder. The provisions of this Section 3(m) shall apply similarly and equally to each Settlement Document.
