Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, and in accordance with the DGCL, Merger Sub shall be merged with and into Athenen at the Effective Time (as defined below). At the Effective Time, the separate existence of Merger Sub shall cease, and Athenen shall continue as the surviving corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Eliem.

SECTION 1.03 Effective Time. As of the Closing, the parties hereto shall cause the Merger to be consummated by filing a certificate of merger substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto (the “Certificate of Merger”), with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, `executed in accordance with the relevant provisions of the DGCL (the date and time of the filing of such Certificate of Merger with the Delaware Secretary of State being the “Effective Time”).

ARTICLE II

EFFECT OF THE MERGER ON THE CAPITAL STOCK OF THE CORPORATIONS

SECTION 2.01 Effect on Capital Stock. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Athenen, Eliem, or any Eliem or Athenen stockholder:

(a) Conversion of Athenen Common Stock. In consideration of the transactions contemplated herein, at the Effective Time, each share of Athenen Common Stock, other than Dissenting Shares, shares owned by Eliem and shares held in Athenen’s treasury, shall be converted into the right to receive one (1) share of fully paid and nonassessable Eliem Common Stock.

(b) Vesting of Eliem Common Stock. Except as otherwise accelerated by the Board of Directors of Athenen (the “Athenen Board”) as set forth on Schedule 2.01(b), subject to the closing of the Merger, if any shares of Athenen Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time are unvested or are subject to a repurchase option or a risk of forfeiture under any applicable restricted stock purchase agreement or other similar agreement with Athenen (each, an “Athenen Restricted Stock Agreement,” and such shares, “Athenen Restricted Stock”)), then the Eliem Common Stock issued in exchange for such shares of Athenen Restricted Stock will to the same extent be unvested and subject to the same repurchase option or risk of forfeiture and will otherwise continue to be subject to provisions of such Athenen Restricted Stock Agreement, and such Eliem Common Stock shall accordingly be marked with appropriate legends. The Merger shall constitute a “Corporate Transaction” for purposes of (i) Section 24(b) of the Athenen Plan (as defined below) and Section 2.1(f) of those Athenen Restricted Stock Agreements issued under the Athenen Plan and (ii) purposes of Section 2(d) of those Athenen Restricted Stock Agreements not issued under the Athenen Plan, in each case such that, from and after the Effective Time, Eliem shall be entitled to exercise any repurchase option, lapsing forfeiture right or other right set forth in each such Athenen Restricted Stock Agreement. For clarity, the Merger will constitute a “Change of Control” under and as defined in, and for purposes of, each such Athenen Restricted Stock Agreement where such term is used.

(c) Conversion of Athenen Preferred Stock. In consideration of the transactions contemplated herein, at the Effective Time, each share of Athenen Preferred Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, other than Dissenting Shares, shares owned by Eliem and shares held in Athenen’s treasury, shall be converted into the right to receive one (1) share of fully paid and nonassessable Eliem Series A Preferred Stock.

(d) Athenen Options.

(i) Each option to purchase shares of Athenen Common Stock (an “Athenen Option”) that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time under the Athenen 2019 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Athenen Plan”), whether or not vested, shall be converted into and become an option to purchase the same number of shares of Eliem Common Stock, and Eliem shall assume the Athenen Plan and each such Athenen Option in accordance with the terms (as in effect as of the date of this Agreement) of the Athenen Plan and the terms of the

3

stock option agreement by which such Athenen Option is evidenced, as the vesting of any such Athenen Option may be accelerated by the Athenen Board in connection with the Merger as set forth on Schedule 2.01(d)(i). Any Athenen Options not issued under the Athenen Plan shall be cancelled immediately prior to the Effective Time. All rights with respect to Athenen Common Stock under Athenen Options assumed by Eliem shall thereupon be converted into rights with respect to Eliem Common Stock. Accordingly, from and after the Effective Time: (A) each Athenen Option assumed by Eliem may be exercised solely for shares of Eliem Common Stock; (B) the number of shares of Eliem Common Stock subject to each Athenen Option assumed by Eliem shall be equal to the number of shares of Athenen Common Stock that were subject to such Athenen Option, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time; (C) the per share exercise price for the Eliem Common Stock issuable upon exercise of each Athenen Option assumed by Eliem shall be equal to the per share exercise price of Athenen Common Stock subject to such Athenen Option, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time; (D) any restriction on the exercise of any Athenen Option assumed by Eliem shall continue in full force and effect and the term, exercisability, vesting schedule and other provisions of such Athenen Option shall otherwise remain unchanged; and (E) with respect to each Athenen Option containing a “change of control” provision, such provision shall continue in force in accordance with its terms; provided, however, that: (1) to the extent provided under the terms of a Athenen Option, such Athenen Option assumed by Eliem in accordance with this Section 2.01(d)(i) shall, in accordance with its terms, be subject to further adjustment as appropriate to reflect any stock split, division or subdivision of shares, stock dividend, reverse stock split, consolidation of shares, reclassification, recapitalization or other similar transaction with respect to Eliem Common Stock subsequent to the Effective Time; and (2) the Board of Directors of Eliem (the “Eliem Board”) or a committee thereof shall succeed to the authority and responsibility of the Athenen Board or any committee thereof with respect to each Athenen Option assumed by Eliem. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.01(d)(i), the conversion of each Athenen Option (regardless of whether such option qualifies as an “incentive stock option” within the meaning of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”)) into an option to purchase shares of Eliem Common Stock shall be made in a manner consistent with Treasury Regulation Section 1.424-1, such that the conversion of a Athenen Option shall not constitute a “modification” of such Athenen Option for purposes of Section 409A or Section 424 of the Code. For clarity, the Merger will constitute a “Change of Control” under and as defined in, and for purposes of, each such Athenen Option where such term is used.

(ii) Prior to the Effective Time, the Athenen Board shall take all actions that may be necessary (under the Athenen Plan and otherwise) to effectuate the provisions of Section 2.01(d)(i) and to ensure that, from and after the Effective Time, holders of Athenen Options have no rights with respect thereto other than those specifically provided in Section 2.01(d)(i).

(e) Cancellation and Retirement of All Other Athenen Capital Stock. Except as provided for in Sections 2.01(a) through (d) above, all capital stock and securities of Athenen, and all warrants or rights to purchase such capital stock or other securities outstanding or held in Athenen’s treasury immediately prior to the Effective Time shall no longer be outstanding, shall automatically be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and each holder of a certificate representing any such shares of Athenen capital stock shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto.

4

(f) Dissenting Shares. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, all shares of Athenen capital stock which were outstanding on the date for the determination of stockholders entitled to vote on the Merger held by holders who have perfected their rights to appraisal and payment in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL, and who has not effectively withdrawn or lost such holder’s appraisal rights (the “Dissenting Shares”) shall not be cancelled and retired, but instead, the holders thereof shall be entitled to have their shares purchased for cash at the fair market value of such Dissenting Shares as agreed upon or determined in accordance with the applicable provisions of the DGCL; provided, however, that if any such holder shall have failed to perfect or shall have effectively withdrawn or lost his, her or its right to appraisal and payment, such holder’s shares of Athenen capital stock shall thereupon be deemed to have been cancelled and retired as of the Effective Time. If a holder of Athenen capital stock shall become entitled to receive payment for such Athenen capital stock pursuant to the applicable provisions of the DGCL, then such payment shall be made by the Surviving Corporation. Athenen shall give the Surviving Corporation prompt notice of any demand received by Athenen for appraisal of Athenen capital stock or notice of exercise of an Athenen stockholder’s appraisal rights, and the Surviving Corporation shall have the right to control all negotiations and proceedings with respect to any such demand. Athenen agrees that, except Eliem’s prior written consent, it shall not voluntarily make any payment or offer to make any payment with respect to, or settle or offer to settle, any such demand for appraisal or exercise of appraisal rights.

(g) Merger Sub Capital Stock. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger, each share of capital stock of Merger Sub that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and become one validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock of the Surviving Corporation (and the shares of the Surviving Corporation into which the shares of Merger Sub capital stock are so converted shall be the only shares of the Surviving Corporation that are issued and outstanding immediately after the Effective Time). Each stock certificate evidencing ownership of any shares of Merger Sub capital stock will evidence ownership of such shares of the Surviving Corporation.

SECTION 2.02 Closing of Athenen Transfer Books. At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of Athenen shall be closed and no further registration of transfers of Athenen capital stock shall thereafter be made.

SECTION 2.03 Delivery of Stock Certificates, Letter of Transmittal and Joinder Agreement. The stock certificates representing the Eliem Common Stock and Eliem Series A Preferred Stock shall be delivered to each holder of Athenen Common Stock and Athenen Preferred Stock, as applicable, only upon the surrender by such stockholder of the stock certificate formerly representing such Athenen Common Stock and Athenen Preferred Stock, as the case may be (or, lieu thereof, a lost certificate affidavit in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Eliem), and execution of a letter of transmittal in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit C, a joinder agreement in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit D (a “Joinder Agreement”) and, with respect to each holder of Athenen Preferred Stock, a counterpart signature page to Eliem’s Voting Agreement, Right of First Refusal and Co-Sale Agreement and Investors’ Rights Agreement, in each case as amended or restated to date and, with respect to each holder of Athenen Common Stock that will hold at least 1% of the capital stock of Eliem following the consummation of the Merger, a counterpart signature page to Eliem’s Voting Agreement and Right of First Refusal and Co-Sale Agreement, in each case as amended or restated to date.

5

SECTION 2.04 No Liability. None of Eliem, Merger Sub, the Surviving Corporation, the Eliem Representative or the Athenen Representative shall be liable to any person in respect of any shares (or dividends or distributions with respect thereto) or cash payments delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable escheat, abandoned property or similar law.

SECTION 2.05 Holdback Shares.

(a) On the Closing Date, Eliem shall retain 948,656 shares of Eliem Common Stock (collectively, the “Holdback Shares”) from certain of the Holders (the “Escrow Holders”) in the amounts set forth on Schedule 2.05 hereto in as partial security for the indemnification obligations of the Holders under Article VII. Eliem shall be deemed to have withheld from each Escrow Holder its Pro Rata Share of the Holdback Shares from the shares that otherwise would be payable and issuable upon the Effective Time to such Escrow Holders pursuant to Section 2.01(a), and contributed on behalf of such Escrow Holder its Pro Rata Share of the Holdback Shares. With respect to any Holder of Athenen Restricted Stock, such Holder’s Pro Rata Share of the Holdback Shares shall be comprised solely of shares of Eliem Common Stock that are vested and are not subject to a repurchase option or a risk of forfeiture. For the purposes of this Agreement, “Holders” means the stockholders of Athenen as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than holders solely of shares of Athenen capital stock which constitute and remain Dissenting Shares).

(b) Until and to the extent there is a forfeiture of the Holdback Shares in connection with any indemnifiable Damages in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Holdback Shares shall be issued and outstanding stock of Eliem. The Escrow Holder deemed to have contributed Holdback Shares shall be entitled to exercise the voting rights of the Holdback Shares and to receive dividends (if declared) with respect to such Holdback Shares.

(c) The Holdback Shares shall be held by Eliem following the Closing, and any Holdback Shares not forfeited to Eliem hereunder shall be delivered to the Holders in accordance with the allocation provided by the Athenen Representative on the earliest of (i) 5:00 p.m. Boston time on the twelve (12) month anniversary of the Closing Date, (ii) the date on which the Securities and Exchange Commission declares effective a registration statement for the initial public offering of Eliem, and (iii) immediately prior to the closing of a “Deemed Liquidation Event” (as defined in Eliem’s Charter), unless any indemnification claim remains unresolved at such time, in which case such portion of the Holdback Shares as may be reasonably necessary to satisfy such claim will remain withheld until the resolution of such indemnification claim. The Athenen Representative shall allocate such Holdback Shares among the Escrow Holders.

To Athenen’s Knowledge, none such patent (or other registered Intellectual Property or application in respect thereof) is subject to any pending re¬examination or opposition, interference, entitlement, revocation or other proceedings nor, so far as Athenen is aware, have any threats of any such proceedings been made.

Neither the execution or delivery of this Agreement, nor the carrying on of Eliem’s business by the employees of Eliem, nor the conduct of Eliem’s business as now conducted and as presently proposed to be conducted, will, to Eliem’s knowledge, conflict with or result in a breach of the terms, conditions, or provisions of, or constitute a default under, any contract, covenant or instrument under which any such employee is now obligated.

SECTION 4.03 280G Waivers and Consent.

(a) Athenen shall have obtained, prior to the initiation of the 280G Approval (as defined below), a waiver (a “Parachute Payment Waiver”), in a form reasonably acceptable to Eliem, from each person who, with respect to Athenen, reasonably could be a “disqualified individual” (within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder), as determined immediately prior to the initiation of the 280G Approval, and who reasonably might otherwise receive, have received, or have the right or entitlement to receive any “parachute payment” (within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder), pursuant to which Parachute Payment Waiver each such person will agree that, unless the 280G Approval has been obtained in a manner which satisfies all applicable requirements of Section 280G(b)(5)(B) of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder, to waive any and all right or entitlement to receive or retain the payments, acceleration of vesting and/or other benefits that could otherwise constitute “parachute payments” to the extent the value thereof exceeds three times such person’s “base amount” less $1, determined in accordance with Section 280G of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder.

(b) No later than one (1) day prior to the Closing Date, Athenen shall have submitted to its stockholders for a vote (in a form and manner satisfactory to Eliem) all such waived payments in a manner such that, if such vote is adopted by the stockholders in a manner which satisfies Section 280G(b)(5)(B) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, including Q-7 of Section 1.280G-1 of such Treasury Regulations, no payments and/or benefits received by such “disqualified individual” would constitute “parachute payments” (within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder) (the “280G Approval”).

SECTION 7.05 Indemnification Claim Procedure.

(a) Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 7.04, if an Indemnified Party wishes to make an indemnification claim under this Article VII, the Representative appointed by such Indemnified Party (the “Indemnified Party Representative”) shall deliver a written notice (an “Indemnification Claim Notice”) to the Representative appointed by the Indemnifying Party (the “Indemnifying Party Representative”) (i) stating that an Indemnified Party has paid, incurred, suffered or sustained, or reasonably anticipates that it may pay, incur, suffer or sustain Damages, and (ii) specifying in reasonable detail the individual items of such Damages, the date each such item was paid, incurred, suffered or sustained (to the extent known), or the basis for such anticipated liability, and, the nature of the misrepresentation, breach of warranty or covenant to which such item is related. The Indemnified Party Representative may update an Indemnification Claim Notice from time to time to reflect any new information discovered with respect to the claim set forth in such Indemnification Claim Notice.

(b) If the Indemnifying Party Representative shall not object in writing within the thirty (30) day period after receipt of an Indemnification Claim Notice by delivery to the Indemnified Party Representative of a written notice of objection containing a reasonably detailed description of the facts and circumstances supporting an objection to the applicable indemnification claim (an “Indemnification Claim Objection Notice”), such failure to so object shall be an irrevocable acknowledgment by the Indemnifying Party Representative that the Indemnified Party is entitled to the full amount of the claim for Damages set forth in such Indemnification Claim Notice.

(c) In such event, Eliem shall promptly release and retain from the Holdback Shares (and the rights to such retained Holdback Shares will be permanently forfeited by the Escrow Holders), or issue new shares of Eliem Common Stock to the Athenen Indemnified Parties, as applicable, in the amount of Damages set forth in such Indemnification Claim Notice. Should the Holdback Shares be insufficient to satisfy in whole the amount to be paid to an Eliem Indemnified Party by the Athenen Indemnifying Parties in accordance with such Indemnification Claim Notice, then each Athenen Indemnifying Party shall, within ten (10) business days following the expiration date of the right of the Indemnifying Party Representative to make an Indemnification Claim Objection Notice, pay to the Eliem Indemnified Party, such Athenen Indemnifying Parties’ Pro Rata Share of such shortfall (subject to the applicable liability limitations herein), such payment to be made in the form of shares of Eliem Common Stock and Eliem Series A Preferred Stock.

(d) In the event that the Indemnifying Party Representative shall deliver an Indemnification Claim Objection Notice in accordance with Section 7.05(b) within thirty (30) days after delivery of such Indemnification Claim Notice, the Indemnifying Party Representative and the Indemnified Party Representative shall attempt in good faith to agree upon the rights of the respective parties with respect to each of such claims. If the Indemnifying Party Representative and the Indemnified Party Representative should so agree, a memorandum setting forth such agreement shall be prepared and signed by the Indemnifying Party Representative and the Indemnified Party Representative, and shall be furnished to Eliem. Eliem shall release and retain Holdback Shares (and the rights to such retained Holdback Shares will be permanently forfeited by the Escrow Holders), or issue new shares of Eliem Common Stock, as applicable, in accordance with the terms of such memorandum. Should the Holdback Shares be insufficient to satisfy in whole the amount owed to an Eliem Indemnified Party in accordance with such memorandum and this Agreement, then each Athenen Indemnifying Party shall, within ten (10) business days following the date of such memorandum, pay to the Eliem Indemnified Party such Indemnifying Party’s Pro Rata Share of such shortfall (subject to the applicable liability limitations herein), such payment to be made in the form of shares of Eliem Common Stock and Eliem Series A Preferred Stock.

39

(e) If no such agreement can be reached after good faith negotiation and prior to thirty (30) days after delivery of an Indemnification Claim Objection Notice, either the Indemnifying Party Representative or the Indemnified Party Representative may commence litigation to resolve the matter, unless the amount of the Damages that is at issue is the subject of a pending litigation with a third party, in which event litigation shall not be commenced until such amount is ascertained or both parties agree to litigation, and in either such event the matter shall be settled by litigation conducted pursuant to Section 9.05.

(f) Eliem shall release and retain Holdback Shares (and the rights to any retained Holdback Shares will be permanently forfeited by the Escrow Holders), or shall issue new shares of Eliem Common Stock, as applicable, in accordance with, the terms of any such award, judgment, decree or order of the court(s), as applicable. Should the Holdback Shares be insufficient to satisfy in whole the amount owed to an Eliem Indemnified Party in accordance with such decision and this Agreement, then each Athenen Indemnifying Party shall, within ten (10) business days following the date of such decision, pay to the Eliem Indemnified Party such Indemnifying Party’s Pro Rata Share of such shortfall (subject to the applicable liability limitations herein, such payment to be made in the form of shares of Eliem Common Stock and Eliem Series A Preferred Stock).

(g) For all purposes of this Article VII, (i) for purposes of any claims or recovery by the Eliem Indemnified Parties: (A) any shares of Eliem Common Stock held within the Holdback Shares or otherwise paid as any portion of the Merger consideration shall be valued at $2.40 per share and (B) any shares of Eliem Series A Preferred Stock paid as any portion of the Merger consideration shall be valued at $3.00 per share and (ii) for purposes of any claims or recovery by the Athenen Indemnified Parties, any shares of Eliem Common Stock to be issued to such Athenen Indemnified Parties shall be valued at $2.40 per share.

SECTION 9.02 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the other agreements referred to herein constitute the entire agreement, and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement.

SECTION 9.03 Amendment. This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of the parties hereto. For purposes of this Section 9.03, the Holders are deemed to have agreed that any amendment of this Agreement signed by Athenen (prior to the Closing) or the Athenen Representative (following the Closing) shall be binding upon and effective against the Holders whether or not they have signed such amendment.

SECTION 9.04 Extension; Waiver. At any time prior to the Effective Time, the parties may (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other parties, (b) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or in any document delivered pursuant to this Agreement, or (c) waive compliance with any of the agreements or conditions contained in this Agreement. Any agreement on the part of a party to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of such party. The failure of any party to this Agreement to assert any of its rights under this Agreement or otherwise shall not constitute a waiver of such rights.

SECTION 9.05 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with the DGCL to the extent required thereby, and then to the laws of the State of Delaware applicable to contracts made and to be performed entirely within such state. The parties hereto hereby irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of first, the Court of Chancery within New Castle County in the State of Delaware (and any appellate court thereof located within such county) and to the extent such Court of Chancery (or appellate court thereof located within such county) lacks jurisdiction over the matter, the Federal courts of the United States of America located within New Castle County in the State of Delaware (or appellate court thereof located within such county) solely in respect of the interpretation and enforcement of the provisions of this Agreement and of the documents referred to in this Agreement, and in respect of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and hereby waive, and agree not to assert, as a defense in any

46

action, suit or proceeding for the interpretation or enforcement hereof or thereof, that it is not subject thereto or that such action, suit or proceeding may not be brought or is not maintainable in said courts or that the venue thereof may not be appropriate or that this Agreement or any such document may not be enforced in or by such courts, and the parties hereto irrevocably agree that all claims with respect to such action or proceeding shall be heard and determined in such a Delaware State or Federal court. The parties hereby consent to and grant any such court jurisdiction over the person of such parties and over the subject matter of such dispute and agree that mailing of process or other papers in connection with any such action or proceeding in the manner provided in Section 9.01 or in such other manner as may be permitted by applicable law, shall be valid and sufficient service thereof. With respect to any particular action, suit or proceeding, venue shall lie solely in New Castle County, Delaware.

SECTION 9.06 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY AND ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY HERETO IN NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT HEREOF.

SECTION 9.07 Prevailing Party Fees. If any action, suit or proceeding is commenced to enforce this Agreement or any right arising in connection with this Agreement (including, without limitation, any claim for indemnification under Article VII), the prevailing party in such action or proceeding will be entitled to recover from the other party the reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses incurred by such prevailing party in connection with such action, suit or proceeding.

SECTION 9.08 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 any of the parties without the prior written consent of the other parties. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the parties and their respective successors and assigns.

SECTION 9.09 Severability of Provisions. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of the prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of the provision in any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 9.10 Other Remedies. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein (including Section 7.04(g) hereof), any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a party hereunder shall be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby or by law on such party, and the exercise of any one remedy shall not preclude the exercise of any other. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in any court of the United States or any state having jurisdiction.

47

However, notwithstanding the foregoing, following the Closing, Section 7.04(g) shall exclusively control regarding remedies under this Agreement.

SECTION 9.11 No Third Party Beneficiaries. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to, or shall be construed to, confer upon any other person any rights or remedies hereunder, except for the Indemnified Parties under Article VII.

SECTION 9.12 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other parties.
