11.1 Independent Nature of Buyers’ Obligations and Rights. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the obligations of each Buyer under this Agreement are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Buyer, and no Buyer shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Buyer under this Agreement, or for compliance with any representations or warranties of any other Buyer under this Agreement. The decision of each Buyer to purchase any portion of the Purchased Stock hereunder has been made by each such Buyer independently of any other Buyer and independently of any information, materials, statements or opinions as to the business, affairs, operations, assets, properties, liabilities, results of operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Company or of its subsidiaries, if any, which may have been made or given by any other Buyer. Each Buyer acknowledges that no other Buyer has acted as agent or fiduciary for any other Buyer in connection with making its investment hereunder and that no Buyer will be acting as agent or fiduciary for any other Buyer in connection with monitoring its investment in the Purchased Stock, each Buyer hereby acknowledging that each of them has made its own independent inquiries and due diligence with the Seller and the Company with respect to its purchase of the Purchased Stock, and no Buyer has relied on any other Buyer in making any such investment decisions. Each Buyer shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights under this Agreement, and it shall not be necessary for any other Buyer to be joined as an additional party in any claim or proceeding for such purpose. Each of the Buyers acknowledge that, for reasons of administrative convenience, this Agreement has been prepared and/or negotiated by counsel for one or more of the Buyers, and that such counsel does not represent all of the Buyers with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby, and each other Buyer has retained its own counsel (or had the opportunity to do so) with respect to such transactions. In furtherance of the foregoing, and not in limitation thereof, the Buyers acknowledge that nothing contained in this Agreement, and no action taken by any Buyer pursuant thereto, shall be deemed to constitute any two or more Buyers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Buyers are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
