15.  Severability .
      If any
      term or provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any person
      or
      circumstance will, to any extent, be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder
      of
      this Agreement, or the application of such term or provision to persons or
      circumstances other than those which are invalid or unenforceable, will not

      The
      failure of the Company or H.I.G. to seek redress for any violation of, or to
      insist upon the strict performance of, any term or condition of this Agreement

      originally constituted a violation of this Agreement by the Company or H.I.G.,
      from having all the force and effect of any original violation. The failure
      by
      the Company or H.I.G. to insist upon the strict performance of any one of the
      terms or conditions of the Agreement or to exercise any right, remedy or
      election herein contained or permitted by law will not constitute or be
      construed as a waiver or relinquishment for the future of such term, condition,
      right, remedy or election, but the same will continue and remain in full force
      and effect. Except to the extent that the Company’s rights of termination are
      limited herein, all rights and remedies that the Company or H.I.G. may have
      at
      law, in equity or otherwise upon breach of any term or condition of this
      Agreement, will be distinct, separate and cumulative rights and remedies and
      no
      one of them, whether exercised by the Company or H.I.G. or not, will be deemed
      to be in exclusion of any other right or remedy of the Company or
      H.I.G.

      Agreement; Amendment; Certain Terms .
      This
      Agreement contains the entire agreement among the parties hereto with respect
      to
      the matters herein contained and supersedes and preempts any prior
      understandings, agreements or representations by or among the parties, written
      or oral, which may have related to the subject matter hereof in any way. The
      provisions of this Agreement may be amended only with the prior written consent
      of the Company and H.I.G.

18.  Governing
      Law .

      Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal
      laws
      of the State of New York without reference to the laws of any other
      state.




19.  Counterparts .
      This
      Agreement may be executed simultaneously in two or more counterparts, any one
      of
      which need not contain the signatures of more than one party, but all such
      counterparts taken together shall constitute one and the same
      Agreement.




20.  Delivery
      by Facsimile .
      This
      Agreement and any amendments hereto, to the extent signed and delivered by
      means
      of a facsimile machine, shall be treated in all manner and respects as an
      original agreement or instrument and shall be considered to have the same
      binding legal effect as if it were the original signed version thereof delivered
      in person. At the request of any party hereto, each other party hereto shall
      reexecute original forms thereof and deliver them to all other parties. No
      party
      hereto shall raise the use of a facsimile machine to deliver a signature or
      the
      fact that any signature was transmitted or communicated through the use of
      a
      facsimile machine as a defense to the formation or enforceability of a contract
      and each such party forever waives any such defense.
