The parties hereto agree that the press releases and filings on Form 8-K, if any, to be issued by the Company in connection with this Agreement and the Closing of the transactions contemplated hereby shall be in forms mutually agreed by the parties to this Agreement, which is not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(e) Successors and Assigns; Assignability. This Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and is enforceable by the respective successors and permitted assigns of the parties hereto.

(g) Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law, or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement will nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner adverse to any party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto will negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that the transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the extent possible.

(h) No Waiver; Remedies. No failure or delay by any party in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Agreement will operate as a waiver of the right, power or privilege. A single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege will not preclude any other or further exercise of the right, power or privilege or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies provided in this Agreement will be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.

(i) No Third-Party Rights. This Agreement is not intended, and will not be construed, to create any rights in any parties other than each of the Sellers and the Purchaser and no Person may assert any rights as third-party beneficiary hereunder.

(j) Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE SELLERS AND EACH OF THE PURCHASERS HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LAWSUIT, PROCEEDING OR ACTION TO ENFORCE OR DEFEND ANY RIGHT UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY AMENDMENT, INSTRUMENT, DOCUMENT OR AGREEMENT DELIVERED OR TO BE DELIVERED IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, AND AGREES THAT ANY LAWSUIT, PROCEEDING OR ACTION WILL BE TRIED BEFORE A COURT AND NOT BEFORE A JURY.

- 9 -

(l) Survival. All of the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement shall survive the Closing.

(m) Further Assurances. Promptly upon reasonable request by any party hereto, the other parties shall execute, acknowledge, deliver, register and re-register any and all such further conveyances, agreements, assignments, notices of assignment, transfers, certificates, assurances and other instruments as such requesting party may reasonably seek from time to time in order to carry out the purposes of this Agreement.
