3. General. (a) Time shall be deemed of the essence with respect to this Agreement and all of the Transaction Documents.

(d) Whenever possible each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.
(e) This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which shall be considered an original but all of which, when taken together, shall constitute one agreement.
(f) The rights and privileges of Omega and Omega-Kansas hereunder shall inure to the benefit of its successors and assigns, and this Agreement shall be binding on all assigns and successors of Obligors.
