MISCELLANEOUS
12.1 Effective Date. This agreement is effective as of October 1, 2005 for
purpose of Financial Statement Consolidation. Any actions taken by seller
between October 1 and December 1, 2005, in anticipation of closing this
agreement, which could in any way be construed as a breach or violation of the
terms and agreements therein are hereby waived as breaches or violations of this
agreement. .
12.2 Brokers' Fees. Each party represents that it has dealt with no broker
or finder in connection with any transaction contemplated by this agreement; and
as far as it knows, no broker or other person is entitled to any commission or
finder's fee in connection with these transactions. Sellers and Buyer each agree
to indemnify and hold harmless one another against any loss, liability, damage,
cost, claim or expense incurred by reason of any brokerage commission or
finder's fee alleged to be payable because of any act, omission or statement of
the indemnifying party.
12.3 Expenses. Each party shall pay all costs and expenses incurred or to
be incurred by it in negotiating and preparing this agreement and in carrying
out the transactions contemplated by this agreement.
12.4 Headings. The subject headings of the articles and sections of this
agreement are included for convenience only and shall not affect the
construction or interpretation of any of its provisions.
12.5 Entire Agreement; Modification; Waiver. This agreement constitutes the
entire agreement between the parties pertaining to the subject matter contained
in it and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements, representations
and understandings of the parties. No supplement, modification or amendment of
this agreement shall be binding unless executed in writing by all the parties.
10
No waiver of the provisions of this agreement shall be deemed, or shall
constitute, a waiver of any provision, whether or not similar, nor shall any
waiver constitute a continuing waiver. No waiver shall be binding unless
executed in writing by the party making the waiver.
12.6 Counterparts. This agreement may be executed simultaneously in one or
more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which
together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
12.7 Parties in Interest. Nothing in this agreement, whether express or
implied, is intended to (1) confer any rights or remedies under or by reason of
this agreement on any persons other than the parties to it and their respective
successors and assigns; (2) relieve or discharge the obligation or liability of
any third person to any party to this agreement; or (3) give any third person
any right of subrogation or action against a party to this agreement.
12.8 Assignment. This agreement shall be binding on, and shall inure to the
benefit of, the parties to it and their respective heirs, legal representatives,
successors and assigns; provided, however, that Buyer may not assign their
rights under this agreement.
12.9 Specific Performance. Each party's obligations under this agreement
are unique. If a party should default in its obligations under this agreement,
it would be extremely impracticable to measure the resulting damages.
Accordingly, the non-defaulting party or parties, in addition to any other
available rights or remedies, may xxx in equity for specific performance, and
each party waives the defense that a remedy in damages would be adequate.
12.10 Litigation Costs. If a legal action, arbitration or other proceeding
is brought for the enforcement of this agreement, or because of an alleged
dispute, breach, default or misrepresentation in connection with this agreement,
the successful or prevailing party or parties shall be entitled to recover
reasonable attorneys' fees and other costs incurred in that action or
proceeding, in addition to any other relief to which it or they may be entitled.

representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of the parties contained
in this agreement, or in any instrument, certificate, opinion or other writing
provided for in it, shall survive the Closing.

under this agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly
