5. MISCELLANEOUS.
A. Entire Agreement. This instrument sets forth the entire agreement
between the Parties hereto and no prior written or oral statement
or agreement shall be recognized or enforced.
B. Severability. If a court of competent jurisdiction determines
that any clause or provision of this Agreement is invalid,
illegal or unenforceable, the other clauses and provisions of the
Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. The clauses and
provisions which the Court determines are void, illegal or
unenforceable shall be limited so that they remain in effect to
the extent permissible by law.

D. Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in
accordance with the laws of the State of Utah, the state in which

E. Venue. To the extent permitted by law, the Parties agree that the
federal and local courts in Utah shall have exclusive personal
and subject matter jurisdiction and venue for any claim or
dispute between the Parties, irrespective of the nature or source
of the claim or dispute. The Parties made this arrangement
because: the Parties mutually desire to remove uncertainty as to
such matters; one or more of the Parties and their property are
located in Utah; and this Agreement has been negotiated and
executed and will be performed in Utah.
F. Waiver of Jury Trial. To the extent permitted by law, the Parties
hereby irrevocably waive a jury trial in the event of litigation.
The Parties included this provision because of the cost and delay
of a jury trial and because the Parties believe that a jury trial
would not be necessary to resolve any dispute or claim between
them.
G. Attorney's Fees. If either Party institutes legal action or other
proceeding (including, but not limited to, arbitration) to
enforce or to declare any right or obligation under this
Agreement or as a result of a breach, default or
misrepresentation in connection with any of the provisions of
this Agreement, or otherwise because of a dispute among the
Parties, the successful or prevailing Party will be entitled to
recover reasonable attorney's fees. Attorney's fees shall include
fees for appeals, collections and other expenses incurred in such
action or proceeding. Legal fees shall be awarded in addition to
any other relief to which the prevailing Party may be entitled.
H. No Third Party Beneficiary. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed
or implied, is intended to confer, any rights or remedies upon
any person other than the Parties hereto and their successors.
I. Counterparts. The Parties understand and agree that they may
execute this Agreement in any number of identical counterparts,
via facsimile or mail. Each counterpart shall be deemed an
original for all purposes.
J. Further Assurances. At any time and from time to time, after the
date of this Agreement, each Party will execute such additional
instruments and take such actions as are reasonably necessary to
confirm or perfect title to the OTS Shares or the BRIA Stock or
otherwise to carry out the intent and purposes of this Agreement.
