the
proposed disposition, and (ii) if reasonably requested by Buyer, Selling

circumstances.
(c) Notwithstanding
subsections (a) and (b) above, no such registration statement or opinion of
counsel shall be necessary for a transfer by Company to any Shareholder, if

to
the same extent as if he were acquiring the Parent Shares directly pursuant
to
this agreement.

notice
given prior to or at the Closing, subject to Section 10.2, this agreement

10.1(a) by
Buyer
if a material breach of any provision of this agreement has been committed
by
Company or Shareholders and such breach has not been waived by

10.1(b) by
Selling Parties if a material breach of any provision of this agreement has
been
committed by Buyer and such breach has not been waived by Selling
Parties;
10.1(c) by
Buyer

EFFECT
OF TERMINATION
|
10.2(a) Each
party's right of termination under Section 10.1 is in addition to any other
rights it may have under this agreement or otherwise, and the exercise of such
right of termination will not be an election of remedies. If this agreement
is
terminated pursuant to Section 10.1, all obligations of the parties under
this agreement will terminate, except that the obligations of the parties in
this Section 10.2 and Article 11 will survive, provided, however,
that, if this agreement is terminated because of a breach of this agreement
by
the nonterminating party or because one or more of the conditions to the
terminating party's obligations under this agreement is not satisfied as a
result of the party's failure to comply with its obligations under this
agreement, the terminating party's right to pursue all legal remedies will
survive such termination unimpaired.
10.2(b) Notwithstanding
any other provision of this agreement to the contrary, if Buyer terminates
this
agreement because the condition in Section 6.12 (Equity Financing) has not
been
satisfied, then Buyer shall pay Company $25,000 when Buyer delivers notice
of
termination of this agreement.
