(a)

Termination of Agreement.  The Parties may terminate this Agreement as provided below:

(i)

The Purchaser may terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to the Seller at any time prior to the Closing in the event the Seller has breached any material representation, warranty, or covenant contained in this Agreement in any material respect, the Purchaser has notified the Seller of the breach, and the breach has continued without cure for a period of twenty days after the notice of breach;

(ii)

The Seller may terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to the Purchaser at any time prior to the Closing (A) in the event the Purchaser has breached any material representation, warranty, or covenant contained in this Agreement in any material respect, the Seller has notified the Purchaser of the breach, and the breach has continued without cure for a period of twenty days after the notice of breach or (B) if the Closing shall not have occurred on or before October 31, 2012 by Seller

(b)

Effect of Termination.  If any Party terminates this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9.05 above, all rights and obligations of the Parties hereunder shall terminate without any liability of any Party to any other Party to consummate its obligations hereunder or to complete the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, except for any liability of any Party then in breach.

Section 9.06

Remedies

.  In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein or granted by law, including recovery of damages, the Purchaser and the Seller will be entitled to specific performance under this Agreement.  The Parties agree that monetary damages may not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of any breach of obligations described in the foregoing sentence and hereby agrees to waive in any action for specific performance of any such obligation the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.

Section 9.07

Interpretation

.  When a reference is made in this Agreement to a Section, such reference shall be to a Section of this Agreement unless otherwise indicated.  Whenever the words “include”, “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation”.

Section 9.08

Severability

.  If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule or Law, or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the Transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any Party.  Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that Transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the extent possible.

Section 9.09

Counterparts; Facsimile Execution

.  This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the Parties and delivered to the other Parties.  Facsimile execution and delivery of this Agreement is legal, valid and binding for all purposes.

Section 9.10

Entire Agreement; Third Party Beneficiaries

. This Agreement, taken together with the Exhibits and Schedules hereto, (a) constitute the entire agreement, and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the Parties with respect to the transactions and (b) are not intended to confer upon any person other than the Parties any rights or remedies.

Section 9.11

Governing Law

. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Nevada, regardless of the laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of laws thereof.  Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees (i) that it is and shall continue to be subject to the jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Nevada and of the federal courts sitting in the State of Nevada, and (ii)(A) to the extent that such party is not otherwise subject to service of process in the State of Nevada, to appoint and maintain an agent in the State of Nevada as such party’s agent for acceptance of legal process and notify the other parties hereto of the name and address of such agent, and (B) to the fullest extent permitted by law, that service of process may also be made on such party by prepaid certified mail with a proof of mailing receipt validated by the U.S. Postal Service constituting evidence of valid service, and that, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, service made pursuant to (ii)(A) or (B) above shall have the same legal force and effect as if served upon such party personally within the State of Nevada.

Section 9.12

Assignment

.  To the fullest extent permitted by law, neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement shall be assigned, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise by any of the Parties without the prior written consent of the other Parties.  Any purported assignment without such consent shall be void.  Subject to the preceding sentences, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the Parties and their respective successors and assigns.

Section 9.13

Remedies Cumulative; Specific Performance. The rights and remedies of the parties hereto shall be cumulative (and not alternative). The parties to this Agreement agree that, in the event of any breach or threatened breach by any party to this Agreement of any covenant, obligation or other provision set forth in this Agreement for the benefit of any other party to this Agreement, such other party shall be entitled (in addition to any other remedy that may be available to it) to (a) a decree or order of specific performance or mandamus to enforce the observance and performance of such covenant, obligation or other provision, and (b) an injunction restraining such breach or threatened breach.




Section 9.14   

Waiver.




(a) 

No failure on the part of any party to exercise any power, right, privilege or remedy under this Agreement, and no delay on the part of any party in exercising any power, right, privilege or remedy under this Agreement, shall operate as a waiver of such power, right, privilege or remedy; and no single or partial exercise of any such power, right, privilege or remedy shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right, privilege or remedy.




(b) 

No party shall be deemed to have waived any claim arising out of this Agreement, or any power, right, privilege or remedy under this Agreement, unless the waiver of such claim, power, right, privilege or remedy is expressly set forth in a written instrument duly executed and delivered on behalf of such party; and any such waiver shall not be applicable or have any effect except in the specific instance in which it is given. 




Section 9.15 

Amendments. This Agreement may not be amended, modified, altered or supplemented other than by means of a written instrument duly executed and delivered on behalf of all of the parties hereto.
