Time is of the essence in this Agreement.

4.3 Effect of Termination

If this Agreement is terminated in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.1, no party shall have any further liability to perform its obligations under this Agreement except as expressly contemplated by this Agreement, and provided that neither the termination of this Agreement nor anything contained in Section 4.1 shall relieve any party from any liability for any breach by it of this Agreement, including from any inaccuracy in its representations and warranties and any non-performance by it of its covenants made herein.

4.4 Fiduciary Duty

Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Shareholder or a shareholder, officer or director of the Shareholder that is a director or officer of the Company shall not be limited or restricted in any way whatsoever in the exercise of his fiduciary duties as a director or officer of the Company. The Company further agrees that the Shareholder is not making any agreement or understanding herein in any capacity other than in his or its capacity as a Shareholder of the Company.
