Disclosee may have furnished to them by the other party hereto or by any third party, or which such Disclosees may have accessed in the performance of this Agreement, except to the extent that any such information is (1) acquired from a third party rightfully having such information and, to the knowledge of Disclosee, under no obligation not to disclose it to the Disclosees, (2) already lawfully in the Disclosee's possession, (3) required by law to be disclosed, or (4) developed by a Disclosee independently of any confidential information disclosed to such party by, or learned by such party from the other party (the matters described in clauses (i) and (ii) are referred to herein as the "Information"). For purposes of this Agreement, subject to the exceptions set forth in the preceding sentence, information regarding a party's cost of materials, production, raw materials, labor and other costs, suppliers, customers and technology, whether or not labeled or described by such party as "confidential", will be considered "confidential information" and within the definition of "Information", in addition to any other information identified from time to time by such party as "confidential". All such Information shall be used by a Disclosee solely for the purpose of performing its obligations under this Agreement, and not in any way directly or indirectly detrimental to the other party.

If any Disclosee becomes legally compelled (by law, regulation, deposition, interrogatory, request for documents, subpoena, civil investigative demand, or similar process) to disclose any of the Information, the Disclosee shall provide the other party with prompt prior written notice of such requirement so the other party may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy and/or waive compliance with the terms of this Agreement. If such protective order or other remedy is not obtained, or the other party waives compliance with the provisions hereof, the Disclosee agrees to furnish only that portion of the Information which it is advised by written opinion of counsel is legally required and to exercise best efforts to obtain assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded such Information.

Protection of Proprietary Information. Each Supplier and Purchaser agrees to take appropriate reasonable measures including, but not limited to, the institution of court proceedings, at their own expense to restrain their respective representatives, employees, or former employees from authorized use or disclosure of the Information.

Specific Performance. The parties further acknowledge that improper disclosure or use of the Information by Supplier or Purchaser, as the case may be, may cause irreparable harm for which damages may not be an adequate remedy. Accordingly, the parties agree that in the event of a breach of this Agreement, Purchaser or Supplier, as the case may be, will be entitled to injunctive relief, in addition to any remedies they have at law or in equity.

20.: Third Party Beneficiaries. Except as otherwise provided in Section 12 of this Agreement, there are no third party beneficiaries to this Agreement.
21.: Entire Agreement; Amendment. This Agreement and the Exhibits attached hereto constitute the entire agreement between the parties and supersede and cancel all prior agreements or arrangements, oral or written, express or implied, with respect to the subject matter hereof. If, at any time, there should be a conflict between the terms of this

Agreement and the terms of any purchase order, acknowledgement or other document exchanged between the parties in the normal course of business under this Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement will control.

Neither this Agreement nor any amendment, change, variation, or modification of this Agreement or any provision hereof will be effective unless in writing and signed by a duly authorized officer of each of Supplier and Purchaser. Terms and conditions that may appear on purchase orders, invoices or similar documents are ineffective to change or expand the provisions of this Agreement.

The provisions of this Agreement will prevail to the extent any conflict exists between them and the provisions of any Exhibit unless any provision in the Exhibit expressly states that it overrides a provision in this Agreement, in which case the provision in the Exhibit will only override the provision in this Agreement that it expressly states will be overridden.

22.: Assignment/Change in Control. This Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the successors of the parties hereto. Neither party may assign or transfer this Agreement or transfer or delegate any right or duty hereunder without prior written consent of the other except as permitted herein, provided, however, that Purchaser may assign or transfer this Agreement or any of its rights hereunder to any of its affiliates. Supplier may not unreasonably withhold its consent to an assignment of this Agreement by Purchaser. This Agreement will not be deemed an asset in any voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy, receivership, insolvency or reorganization proceedings of or against Supplier or Purchaser.
23.: No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. Any failure by Purchaser or Seller at any time, or from time to time, to enforce or require the strict keeping and performance by the other of any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement, will not constitute a waiver by Purchaser or Seller of a breach of any such terms or conditions or the right of such party to avail itself of the remedies it may have for any such breach at any other time. Unless otherwise specifically stated in this Agreement, remedies of the parties set forth therein are cumulative and in addition to any other remedies available at law or in equity.
24.: Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without regard to the conflict or choice of law principles thereof. Each of the parties hereto irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of any state or federal court located within the County of New York in the State of New York, for the purposes of any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of this Agreement or any transaction contemplated hereby. Each of the parties hereto further agrees that service of any process, summons, notice or document by U.S. registered mail to such party's respective address set forth in Section 18 will be effective service of process for any action, suit or proceeding in New York with respect to any matters to which it has submitted to jurisdiction as set forth above in the immediately preceding sentence. Each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection to the laying of venue of any action, suit or proceeding arising out to this Agreement or the transaction contemplated hereby in any

state or federal court located within the County of New York in the State of New York, and hereby further irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such action, suit or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

The parties expressly exclude from this Agreement the applications of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods, and further exclude from this Agreement the applications of the International Sale of Goods Contracts Convention Act, S.C. 1990-1991, c.13, and the International Sale of Goods Act, R.S.O. 1990, C.I.10, as amended.

25.

Headings. The headings of this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and will not limit or otherwise affect the meaning of any provision herein.

26.

Survival. The provisions of Section 11, 12, 14, 19, 20, 21, 24, 26, 28, and 29 will survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement.

27.

Additional Terms. [Intentionally Omitted]

28.

Severability. If one or more provisions contained in this Agreement is deemed or held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law, this Agreement will be construed (i) with the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision deleted, and the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein will not be affected or impaired thereby and (ii) to provide the parties with the economic and other rights that most closely approximate those in this Agreement without giving rise to such a consequence.

29.
