Section 4.5. Further Assurances; Power of Attorney.

(a) At any time or from time to time after the date hereof, the Parties agree to cooperate with each other, and at the request of any other Party, to execute and deliver any further instruments or documents and to take all such further action as another Party may reasonably request in order to evidence or effectuate the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and to otherwise carry out the intent of the Parties hereunder.

(b) Each LPIH appoints Lance Martinez (the “Attorney-in-Fact”), and with full power of substitution and resubstitution, as such LPIH’s exclusive and irrevocable agent, proxy and attorney-in-fact (and such proxy shall be deemed to be coupled with an interest), for all purposes under this Agreement and the Reorganization Documents, including full power and authority to act on such LPIH’s behalf with respect thereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Attorney-in-Fact, acting in good faith, is authorized and empowered to:

(i) make all determinations and take all actions with respect to such LPIH’s equity interests in the Company, including without limitation the exercise of all rights and the performance of all obligations under this Agreement and the Reorganization Documents, and the transfer or other disposition of such interests;

14

(ii) in connection with any such transfer or disposition, execute, endorse and receive all documents, instruments, certificates, statements and agreements on behalf of and in the name of such LPIH necessary to effectuate and consummate the Reorganization Transactions;

(iii) take all actions on such LPIH’s behalf in connection with any claims made under this Agreement or any of the Reorganization Documents to defend or settle such claims;

(iv) approve any changes or modifications to the Reorganization Documents from the forms set forth on the Exhibits attached hereto prior to execution and delivery;

(v) execute and deliver, should it elect to do so in its sole discretion, on such LPIH’s behalf, any amendment to this Agreement or any of the Reorganization Documents or any waiver of any of the terms thereof; and

(vi) take all other actions to be taken by or on such LPIH’s behalf that are permitted or required under this Agreement or any of the Reorganization Documents.

(c) All decisions and actions taken by the Attorney-in-Fact will be binding upon the LPIHs; no LPIH will have the right to object, dissent, protest or otherwise contest the same; and each Party will be able to rely conclusively on the written instructions of the Attorney-in-Fact as to such decisions and actions taken by the Attorney-in-Fact hereunder. The Attorney-in-Fact will not be liable to any LPIH for any action taken by it in good faith pursuant to this Agreement. The Attorney-in-Fact is serving in that capacity solely for purposes of administrative convenience, and is not personally liable in such capacity for any of the obligations of any LPIH hereunder.

Section 4.6. Entire Agreement. Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, this Agreement, together with the Reorganization Documents, embodies the complete agreement and understanding among the Parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes and preempts any prior understandings, agreements or representations by or among the Parties, written or oral, that may have related to the subject matter hereof in any way.

Section 4.7. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the state of Delaware. To the fullest extent permitted by law, no suit, action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement may be brought in any court or before any similar authority other than in a court of competent jurisdiction in the State of Delaware, and the Parties hereto hereby submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts for the purpose of such suit, proceeding or judgment. To the fullest extent permitted by law, each Party hereto irrevocably waives any right it may have had to bring such an action in any other court, domestic or foreign, or before any similar domestic or foreign authority. Each of the Parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives trial by jury in any legal action or proceeding in relation to this Agreement and for any counterclaim herein.

Section 4.8. Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law

15

or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision or any other jurisdiction, but this Agreement shall be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein.

Section 4.9. Enforcement. Each Party hereto acknowledges that money damages would not be an adequate remedy in the event that any of the covenants or agreements in this Agreement are not performed in accordance with its terms, and it is therefore agreed that in addition to and without limiting any other remedy or right it may have, the non-breaching Party will have the right to an injunction, temporary restraining order or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction enjoining any such breach and enforcing specifically the terms and provisions hereof.

Section 4.10. No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall be solely for the benefit of the Parties and no other Person or entity shall be a third-party beneficiary hereof.

Section 4.11. Counterparts; Facsimile Signatures. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one instrument. This Agreement may be executed by facsimile signature(s).
