Each such notice or other communication shall be effective (i) if given by telecommunication, when transmitted to the applicable number so specified in (or pursuant to) this Section 6.8 and an appropriate answer back is received, (ii) if given by mail, three days after such communication is deposited in the mails with first class postage prepaid, addressed as aforesaid or (iii) if given by any other means, when actually received at such address.

6.9Expenses.     Seller and Buyer will each pay all of their own expenses incident to the negotiation, preparation and performance of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including the fees, expenses and disbursements of its investment bankers, accountants and counsel.

6.10Remedies; Waiver.     Except to the extent this Section 6.10 is inconsistent with any other provision in this Agreement or applicable Law, all rights and remedies existing under this Agreement and any related agreements or documents are cumulative to and not exclusive of any rights or remedies otherwise available under this Agreement. No failure on the part of any party to exercise or delay in exercising any right hereunder shall be deemed a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise preclude any further or other exercise of such or any other right.

6.11Attorney's Fees.     In the event of any Action by any party arising under or out of, in connection with or in respect of, this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to reasonable attorney's fees, costs and expenses incurred in such Action, unless a court determines that such fees, costs and expenses should be allocated in a different manner.

6.12Knowledge Convention.     Whenever any statement herein or in any schedule, exhibit, certificate or other documents delivered to any party pursuant to this Agreement is made "to the knowledge of Seller" or "to the knowledge of Seller" or words of similar intent or effect, such statement means the current actual knowledge of the parties, in each case without any independent inquiry or investigation.

6.13Representation by Counsel; Interpretation.     Seller and Buyer each acknowledge that each party to this Agreement has been represented by counsel in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Accordingly, any rule of Law or any legal decision that

would require interpretation of any claimed ambiguities in this Agreement against the party that drafted it has no application and is expressly waived. The provisions of this Agreement shall be interpreted in a reasonable manner to effect the intent of the parties hereto. Whenever the words "include", "includes" or "including" are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words "without limitation."

6.14Waiver of Jury Trial.     Each party waives any right to a trial by jury in any Action to enforce or defend any right under this Agreement or any other related document and agrees that any Action shall be tried before a court and not before a jury.

6.15Severability.     If any provision of this Agreement is determined to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable by any Governmental Entity, the remaining provisions of this Agreement to the extent permitted by Law shall remain in full force and effect, unless doing so would result in an interpretation of this Agreement which is manifestly unjust.

6.16Entire Agreement.     This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. The representations and warranties and the obligations of the parties contained herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement.
