Deemed Investment Direction of Participants. Subject to such limitations, rules and procedures as may from time to time be required by law, imposed by the Administrator, or contained elsewhere in the Plan, each Participant may communicate to the Administrator, or to any person to whom the Administrator has delegated such Administrative duties, a direction as to how the amounts credited to his Account shall be deemed invested among the Investment Funds. Such direction shall be subject to such rules and procedures for direction of investments under the Savings Plan, as modified by the Administrator with respect to the Plan. The Administrator may also designate default Investment Funds in which a Participant’s Account shall be deemed invested if no direction is received from the Participant (“Default Investment Funds”). Unless otherwise designated by the Administrator, the Default Investment Funds shall be the same as the default Investment Funds under the Savings Plan. No Participant directions will be executed with respect to the deemed investment of the Participant’s Account on or after the Valuation Date selected by the Administrator to determine the amount of the payment from such Account under Section 7.07 following the Participant’s Separation from Service. No actual investment of the Participant’s Account shall be made in the Investment Funds, and Participants shall have no right, claim or demand with respect to any such Investment Funds based on the deemed investments under the Plan.

No Deemed Waivers; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the ​ hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by the Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph # of this [Section 9.02], and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time.

Participants Deemed to Accept Plan. By accepting any benefit under the Plan, each Participant and each person claiming under or through any such Participant shall be conclusively deemed to have indicated their acceptance and ratification of, and consent to, all of the terms and conditions of the Plan and any action taken under the Plan by the Board, the Committee or the Company, in any case in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Plan.

The Agreement shall automatically terminate with immediate effect upon resignation of the Services Provider from its position as Chief Scientific Officer of the Company, for whatever reason. The Termination Date shall be deemed to be the date upon which its resignation shall take effect.

Resignation of Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the L/C Issuers and the Partnership.

Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.

The parties acknowledge that Employee’s employment relationship with the Company will cease at the close of business on July 1, 2021, or such other date that Employee and the Company mutually agree (the “Termination Date”).

Each Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the L/C Issuers and the Borrowers. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the consent of the Parent Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably held or delayed and provided that such consent shall not be required if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at such time), to appoint a successor, which, in the case of a successor Domestic Administrative Agent, shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States or, in the case of a successor Canadian Administrative Agent, shall be a bank with an office in Canada, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in Canada.

If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may on behalf of the Lenders and the L/C Issuers, appoint a successor Domestic Administrative Agent and/or Canadian Administrative Agent, as applicable, meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that if the applicable Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrowers and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and # the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Credit Documents and # all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through such Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and each L/C Issuer directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Domestic Administrative Agent and/or Canadian Administrative Agent, as applicable, as provided for above in this Section. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Domestic Administrative Agent and/or Canadian Administrative Agent, as applicable hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Credit Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by the Borrowers to a successor Domestic Administrative Agent and/or Canadian Administrative Agent, as applicable, shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrowers and such successor. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Credit Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 11.04 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub‑agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.
