NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS AGREED:
1.
 
TERMINATION OF THE AGREEMENTS
     
1.1
 
Pursuant to Section 12.1(a) of the MERGER AGREEMENT, the Parties hereby agree that the MERGER AGREEMENT shall terminate with immediate effect as of the date hereof, except for Section 9.5 (Confidentiality) of the MERGER AGREEMENT which shall continue in full force and effect, and that the Sellers, the Company and Merger Sub shall have no further rights or obligations, other than as provided for in this Agreement, towards each other under or in relation to the MERGER AGREEMENT.

Pursuant to Section 12.5 of the MERGER AGREEMENT, United, the Company and Merger Sub hereby represent and warrant that each has obtained authorization by its Board of Directors or the duly authorized designee of the Board of Directors.

1.4
 
In addition to the abovementioned, each Party represents and warrants that neither it nor anyone acting on its behalf has assigned or transferred, or attempted to assign or transfer, to any person or entity, any of the claims, charges, complaints, liens, demands, causes of action, damages or liabilities it is releasing in this Agreement.

2.

MISCELLANEOUS
     
3.1
 
This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and understanding between the Parties and supersedes all other agreements, whether oral or in writing between the Parties.
     
3.2
 
All press releases and other public relations activities of the Parties with regard to this Agreement shall be mutually approved by United and the Company in advance.
     
3.3
 
The Agreement shall be construed under and be governed in all respects by the internal laws, and not the laws pertaining to choice or conflicts of laws, of the State of Delaware.  If there is any dispute or controversy between the Parties arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the Parties agree that such dispute or controversy will be arbitrated in accordance with proceedings under American Arbitration Association rules (“AAA”), and the Arbitration Laws of the State of Delaware. Such arbitration will be the exclusive dispute resolution method under this Agreement.  The decision and award determined by such arbitration will be final and binding upon all Parties.  All costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expert’s fees, of all Parties incurred in any dispute which is determined and/or settled by arbitration pursuant to this Agreement will be borne by the Party determined to be liable in respect of such dispute; provided, however, that if complete liability is not assessed against only one Party, the Parties will share the total costs in proportion to their respective amounts of liability so determined.

3.5
 
Each Party to this Agreement acknowledges and represents that it (i) has fully and carefully read and acquainted itself with this Agreement prior to signing it, (ii) has been or has had the opportunity to be, advised by independent legal counsel of its own choice at its own costs as to the legal effect and meaning of each of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and (iii) is entering into this Agreement freely and voluntarily and not in reliance on any promises or representation other than as set forth in this Agreement.
