FURTHER ASSURANCES
|
Each Party will, from time to time and at all times hereafter upon request, without further consideration, do such further acts and deliver all such further assurances, deeds and documents as shall be reasonably required in order to fully perform and carry out the terms of this Agreement.
Furthermore, in recognition of the July 8 2006 Letter of Intent between Enterayon and Xxxxxxxxx, it was originally intended to include the Platinum Storm (PS) and Platinum Dragon (PD) tenures as part of the current Agreement. Through no fault of Xxxxxxxxx, XX and PD were withdrawn from the Agreement due to regulatory issues mandated by British Columbia that made PS and PD part of a "No Registration Reserve". As a result of the removal of the PS and PD tenures from the Agreement, the purchase price has accordingly been reduced by mutual agreement between Enterayon and Xxxxxxxxx and memorialized in this Agreement. If at some point in the future Xxxxxxxxx is able to re-acquire PS and PD, it is agreed that those tenures will then be offered to Enterayon at the original acquisition price memorialized in the July 8 2006 Letter of Intent, less the sums paid to date under this Agreement.
It should be further noted within this Agreement that Xxxxxxxxx is not qualified by education or experience to make any judgments on the economic viability of the mining claims or minerals contained there-in, and as such will be held harmless for any information provided both verbal and written, expressed or implied, with regard to the economic, technical, or geological aspects of the Acquisition Lands. Any such conclusions are the product of Enterayon’s own due diligence, of which it bears sole responsibility.
14.
|
ENTIRE AGREEMENT
|
The provisions contained in any and all documents and agreements collateral hereto shall at all times be read subject to the provisions of this Agreement and, in the event of conflict, the provisions of this Agreement shall prevail. No amendments shall be made to this Agreement unless in writing, executed by the Parties. This Agreement supersedes all other agreements, documents, writings and verbal understandings between the Parties relating to the subject matter hereof and expresses the entire agreement of the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof.
