also deliver a manually executed counterpart, but the failure to so deliver a
manually executed counterpart shall not affect the validity, enforceability, or
binding effect hereof.
SECTION 11. Termination. Upon payment and performance in full of all
Obligations, the security interests created by this Trademark Agreement shall
terminate and Secured Party (at Debtor's expense) shall promptly execute and
deliver to Debtor such documents and instruments reasonably requested by Debtor

Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect in any

unenforceability in such jurisdiction or with respect to such party shall, to
the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, not invalidate or render illegal
or unenforceable any such provision in any other jurisdiction or with respect to
any other party, or any other provisions of this Trademark Agreement.
