4.                  The relationship of the Parties hereto shall be limited to carrying on the activities of the Parties in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

5.                  This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which, taken together, shall constitute but one and the same instrument, which may be sufficiently evidenced by one counterpart.

6.                  In the event of any dispute among the Parties hereto arising out of the provisions of this Agreement or their investment in the Company, each Party hereto consents and submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Federal and State Courts in the State of Missouri.
