amended or modified, and any provision in this Agreement may be waived, if such

hereunder. If a Founder Stockholder who is also a member of the Board of

Stockholder must refrain from exercising his or her vote at meetings of the
Board and general meetings of the Company to give effect to this Section 6.5.
Section 6.6. SEVERABILITY. If the final determination of a

perfected, that any term or provision hereof is invalid or unenforceable, (A)
the remaining terms and provisions hereof shall be unimpaired and (B) the

intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision.

Principal shall cause his or her Family Affiliate to comply with the terms and
provisions of this
17
Agreement. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the

acknowledges that it will be impossible to measure in money the damage to the
Company or the Founder Stockholders if any party hereto fails to comply with the

event of any such failure, neither the Company nor any Founder Stockholder will
have an adequate remedy at law. Therefore, the Company and each Founder

right to enforce specifically the provisions of Article I, II and III by
obtaining injunctive relief against any violation thereof, or otherwise. All

parties, and an order may be entered upon the award of the arbitrators in any
court of competent jurisdiction.

any arbitration or legal or equitable action, suit or proceeding against such

laws of the State of New York do not govern the validity, interpretation or
effect of this Agreement, (B) any immunity from jurisdiction to which it might

original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the
same instrument.
Section 6.14. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement, including the
Schedules hereto, contains the entire understanding of the parties with respect
to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes all prior agreements and
understandings, both written and oral, among the parties with respect to the
subject matter hereof.
19
