any, relating to federal, state and local taxes as may be required by law.

     (c) Equitable Remedies.   Each of the parties hereto acknowledges and
agrees that upon any breach by Employee or Company of his or its obligations

injunctive and equitable relief.

provisions hereof shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be
affected by the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision or by its severance
herefrom.  Furthermore, in lieu of such illegal, invalid or unenforceable
provision, there shall be added automatically as part of this Agreement a
provision as similar in its terms to such illegal, invalid or unenforceable
provision as may be possible and be legal, valid and enforceable.

     (e) Waivers.   No delay or omission by either party in exercising any

preclude any further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power
or privilege.
