            (e)    Legal Proceedings.

                 (i)    There are no lawsuits pending or, to the
     knowledge of Purchaser, threatened against Purchaser which
     (1) would reasonably be expected to materially adversely
     affect the validity or enforceability of this Agreement or
     any Related Agreement or the ability of Purchaser to
     consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement,
     or (2) would reasonably be expected to result in the
     issuance of an Order restraining, enjoining or otherwise
     prohibiting or making illegal the consummation of the
     transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

                 (ii)   There are no Orders outstanding against
     Purchaser which would be reasonably expected to have a
     material adverse effect on the ability of Purchaser to
     consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

            (f)    Brokers.  No broker, finder or investment
banker is entitled to any brokerage commission, finder's fee or
similar payment in connection with the transactions contemplated
hereby based upon arrangements made by or on behalf of Purchaser,
with the exception of an arrangement between Purchaser and Marc
Couturier, for which Purchaser is solely liable.

            (g)    No Misleading Statements.  Neither this
Agreement, any Related Agreement nor any certificate or other
document delivered by Purchaser in connection with this Agreement
or any of the Related Agreements contains, or will contain when
delivered, any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to
state, or will omit to state when delivered, a material fact
necessary in order to make the statements made herein or therein,
in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading.

            (a)    Indemnification by Seller.  Subject to the
terms and conditions of this Agreement (including, in particular,
the provisions relating specifically to indemnification for
environmental matters), Seller agrees to indemnify and hold

directors, employees, and agents and their successors and
permitted assigns (collectively, the "Purchaser Indemnified
Parties") against and in respect of any Damages incurred by any
of them directly from any of the following:

                 (i)    any misrepresentation or breach by
     Seller of any representation or warranty in this Agreement
     and any inaccuracy in the Seller's Closing Certificate;

                 (ii)   any failure to perform by Seller of any
     of its covenants in this Agreement or in any other
     agreements or instruments furnished to Purchaser pursuant to
     this Agreement;

                 (iii)  any Excluded Liabilities;

     employees with respect to the period prior to the Effective
     Time arising out of such Person's employment with Seller

     violations of wage and hour statutes or other Laws, and the

     Schedules; or

                 (v)    claims related to Seller's obligations

employees, and agents and their successors and permitted assigns
(collectively, the "Seller Indemnified Parties") against and in
respect of any Damages incurred by any of them directly from any
of the following:

                 (i)    any misrepresentation or breach by
     Purchaser of any representation or warranty in this
     Agreement and any inaccuracy in the Purchaser's Closing
     Certificate;

                 (ii)   any failure to perform by Purchaser of
     any of its covenants in this Agreement or in any other
     agreements or instruments furnished to Seller pursuant to
     this Agreement;

                 (iii)  any claim for benefits under the
     Separation Plan by any of Seller's employees at the Date of
     Closing which arises out of Purchaser's decision not to
     offer employment to any such employees pursuant to the terms
     of this Agreement, or to terminate the employment of any
     such employees, or claim arising from Purchaser's failure to
     reimburse expenses incurred in connection with the
     Separation Plan; provided that the costs of defending any
     such claim shall be shared equally by the parties; or,

                 (iv)   any Assumed Liabilities.

          Section 6.2.   INDEMNIFICATION PROCEDURES FOR THIRD-
PARTY CLAIMS.

            (a)    Notification of Claims.  In the event any
third party makes or commences a claim, action or proceeding (a
"Claim") with respect to any matter as to which any of the
Purchaser Indemnified Parties intends to seek indemnification
under Section 6.1(a), or with respect to any matter as to which
any of the Seller Indemnified Parties intends to seek
indemnification under Section 6.1(b), the Person to be so
indemnified (the "Indemnified Party") shall promptly notify each
Person from which such indemnification is to be sought (each an
"Indemnifying Party") of the existence of such Claim.  The
failure of an Indemnified Party to properly notify the
Indemnifying Party hereunder shall not relieve the Indemnifying
Party of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent that
such Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by the failure
to receive such notice.

            (b)    Defense of Claims by Indemnifying Party.  The
Indemnifying Party shall have the right to undertake and direct
the defense of any such Claim by delivering to the Indemnified
Party written notice of such undertaking within thirty (30) days
of the receipt of notice from the Indemnified Party of the
existence of such third-party Claim provided that the
Indemnifying Party acknowledges, in writing, its obligation to
indemnify the Indemnified Party in accordance with the terms of
this Agreement.

            (c)    Settlement of Claims by Indemnified Parties.
In the event the Indemnifying Party declines to undertake the
defense of any such Claim as provided in Section 6.2(b), the
Indemnified Party shall keep the Indemnifying Party advised as to
the current status and progress thereof.  The Indemnified Party
shall not make any offer of settlement with respect to any Claim
if the Indemnifying Party has undertaken the defense of such
Claim.  In the event the Indemnifying Party undertakes the
defense of any such Claim, the Indemnified Party shall
nevertheless be entitled to participate in (but not direct) the
defense thereof with counsel of its own choice, and the parties
agree to cooperate fully with one another in connection with the
defense and/or settlement thereof; provided, however, that any
decision to settle any such Claim shall be at the sole discretion
of the Indemnifying Party (to the extent of the Indemnifying
Party's responsibility for the Claim).  Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Indemnifying Party shall not settle any Claim
without the Indemnified Party's consent unless such settlement
involves only the payment of money and the claimant provides to
the Indemnified Party a release from all liability in respect of
such Claim.  If the settlement involves more than the payment of
money, the Indemnifying Party shall not settle the Claim without
the Indemnified Party's prior consent.  From and after the date
that the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Claims,
and as long the Indemnifying Party diligently defends such
Claims, the Indemnifying Party shall be relieved of the
obligation to reimburse the Indemnified Party for any other
legal, accounting, or other out-of-pocket costs and expenses
thereafter incurred by the Indemnified Party with respect to the
defense of such Claim notwithstanding any participation by the
Indemnified Party therein.

          Section 6.3.   SURVIVAL.  With the exception of the
representations and warranties contained in Sections 5.1(a),
5.1(b), 5.1(c), 5.1(d), 5.1(m), 5.1(g), 5.1(q), 5.2(a), 5.2(b),
5.2(c), 5.2(d) and 5.2(f) (the "Core Representations and
Warranties"), which shall survive the Closing without limitation
as to time (but subject to any applicable statute of
limitations), all other representations and warranties contained
in this Agreement shall survive the Closing for a period of five
(5) years and shall continue in full force and effect after the
Closing only for such period, provided, however, that all rights
to indemnification with respect to claims for Damages made within
such period shall survive until the final disposition of such
claims.

          Section 6.4.   LIMITATIONS.

            (a)    The provisions of this Article VI shall apply
to any Damages for breach of any covenant, representation,
warranty or other provision of this Agreement or any agreement,
certificate or other document delivered pursuant to this
Agreement (other than a claim for specific performance or
injunctive relief) with the intent that all such Damages shall be
subject to the limitations and other provisions contained in this
Article VI.

            (b)    The indemnification obligations of the Seller
pursuant to Section 6.1 and the Seller's liability for all
Damages in respect thereof shall be limited as follows:

                 (i)    Cap.  In no event shall the aggregate
     liability of the Seller in respect of Damages under Section
     6.1(a)(i) exceed the amount of  * * * (the "General
     Liability Cap").  Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, if
     while the Sharing Period described in Section 6.5(c) is in
     effect, the aggregate amount for which Seller would be
     required (but for the General Liability Cap) to indemnify
     Purchaser with respect to such Damages exceeds  * * * the
     General Liability Cap shall be deemed increased to the then-
     current Environmental Liability Cap described in Section
     6.5(c), less the aggregate of all amounts paid by Seller
     under Sections 6.1(a)(i) since the Closing Date.

                 (ii)   Deductible.  In the case of all such
     Damages the Seller shall not be liable in respect of such
     Damages unless and until such time as the aggregate amount
     of such Damages exceed the amount of One Hundred Thousand
     Dollars ($100,000), and in such event only to the extent of
     such excess.

            (c)    Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, any indemnification claims against Seller relating to
Environmental Liabilities shall be made exclusively under
Sections 6.5 and shall not be subject to and included in the cap
and deductible limitations provided in Section 6.4(b).

          Section 6.5.   INDEMNIFICATION AS TO ENVIRONMENTAL
MATTERS.

            (a)    Seller agrees to indemnify, defend and hold
harmless the Purchaser Indemnified Parties from and against all
Damages resulting from Environmental Liabilities arising out of
or related to the following:

                 (i)    the release or threatened release of any
     Hazardous Materials attributable to Seller at any offsite
     location prior to the Closing Date;

                 (ii)   any environmental matters or conditions
     identified in the Phase I or Phase II Environmental
     Assessments (the "Environmental Assessments") prepared
     previously for Seller and made available to Purchaser; and

                 (iii)  any environmental matters or conditions
     identified in a limited update of the Environmental
     Assessments that is prepared for Purchaser prior to the
     Closing Date (copies of which reports shall be made
     available to Seller prior to such date), provided that
     Seller shall have agreed to the scope of such update in
     advance, and provided further that with respect to any such
     environmental matters or conditions, Seller shall have the
     option to (1) indemnify, defend and hold harmless the
     Purchaser Indemnified Parties as provided herein, (2) clean
     up, correct, contain, remediate or take any response action
     to address, at its exclusive cost and expense, any such
     environmental matters or conditions, or (3) terminate

     this Agreement without further liability to any of the
     Seller Indemnified Parties.  Seller shall not engage any
     third party to perform work under (2) above that shall not
     have been approved by Purchaser, which approval shall not be
     withheld unreasonably.

     Seller's liability for indemnification under this Section
6.5(a) is not subject to the Environmental Liability Cap, the
General Liability Cap, or any deductible.

            (b)    Subject to the provisions of Section 6.5(a)
and (c), Seller and Purchaser agree to share in any Damages
arising out of or related to the following:

                 (i)    the presence of Hazardous Materials at,
     on or under the Facility prior to the Closing Date not
     otherwise identified by the Phase I or Phase II
     Environmental Assessments referenced in the preceding
     Sections 6.5(a)(ii) and 6.5(a)(iii); and

                 (ii)   the failure (not otherwise identified by
     the Phase I or Phase II Environmental Assessments referenced
     in the preceding Sections 6.5(a)(ii) and 6.5(a)(iii)) of the
     Acquired Assets to be in compliance prior to the Closing
     Date with any Environmental Laws or environmental Permits in
     effect and enforceable as of the Closing Date.

            (c)    With respect to any Damages that Seller and
Purchaser agree to share under Section 6.5(b), Seller's share
shall decrease and Purchaser's share shall increase
proportionately for a period of ten (10) years after the Closing
Date pursuant to the following table (the "Sharing Period"):

               Year                             Purchaser's
      (Up to and Including)   Seller's Share       Share

            (d)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time,
the aggregate liability of Seller for all Environmental
Liabilities under Section 6.5(b) shall not exceed the then-
current "Environmental Liability Cap" (defined hereinafter) less
the aggregate of all amounts paid by Seller under Section 6.1(a)
since the Closing Date.   The "Environmental Liability Cap" shall
be  * * * as of the Closing Date, and shall be reduced annually

effect such an assignment or transfer, if such assignment or
transfer, attempted assignment or transfer, or agreement would
constitute a breach thereof.  Seller will use its Best Efforts to
obtain the consent of such other party to the assignment or
transfer of any such Transferred Contract and/or Permit to
Purchaser in all cases in which such consent is or may be
required for such assignment or transfer.  Purchaser shall
cooperate with Seller in its efforts to obtain such consents.

            (b)    Alternative Arrangements.  If any such
consent shall not be obtained, Seller shall cooperate with
Purchaser to provide an alternate reasonable arrangement
reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser and Seller designed to
provide to Purchaser the benefits intended to be assigned or
transferred to Purchaser under the relevant Transferred Contract
or Permit and to relieve Seller of the performance and other
obligations and Liabilities thereunder.  The parties expressly
intend and agree that the beneficial interest in and to the
Transferred Contracts or Permits, to the fullest extent permitted
by the relevant Transferred Contract or Permit and applicable
Law, pass to Purchaser.  If any necessary consent to assignment
of any Transferred Contract or Permit cannot be obtained, such
Contract or Permit shall cease to be a Transferred Contract, and
Seller shall remain responsible for its performance of such
Contract, and Seller shall be liable for all Liabilities under
any such Contract or Permit, including any Liabilities arising
from any termination thereof or breach or damage (or claim of
breach or damage) to or by any Person under or in respect of such
Contracts and Permits.

          Section 7.6.   RETURN OF EXCLUDED ASSETS.  In the
event, through inadvertence, mistake or otherwise, any Excluded
Assets are transferred to Purchaser, Purchaser agrees to promptly
transfer and deliver the same to Seller.

          Section 7.7.   SOLICITATION AND HIRING.  Prior to the
Closing Date and until twelve months after the Closing Date,
Seller shall not, directly or indirectly (including through an
Affiliate or its parent company), solicit or attempt to induce
any employee of Seller to cease working at the Facility or make
an offer of employment to any employee of Seller without prior
written consent of Purchaser, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld.

          Section 7.8.   CONFIDENTIALITY AGREEMENT.  Purchaser
and Seller acknowledge and agree that the Confidential Disclosure
Agreement dated July 7, 2003 by and between Aventis
Pharmaceuticals, Inc., Seller's parent company and Purchaser (the

                        Employee Matters
                        ----------------

          Section 8.1.   BENEFIT PLANS.

                    (a)  Except as specifically set forth in this
Agreement, (i) Purchaser will not assume any of the Benefit
Plans, or any rights, duties, obligations or liabilities
therewith, nor shall it become a successor employer or be
responsible in any way for Seller's participation in or
obligations or responsibilities with respect to any Benefit Plan,
(ii) Seller will retain all such Benefit Plans, including all
obligations and liabilities deriving directly or indirectly from
sponsoring or participating in such Benefit Plans; and (iii)
Purchaser will not be responsible for obligations to employees
relating to periods prior to the Effective Time, including, for
example, unpaid medical claims and unused employee deferral
accounts.

                    (b)  All employees of Seller on the Closing
Date who accept employment by Purchaser immediately following the
Closing Date shall be given full credit for all time worked for
Seller for purposes of determining their participation and
vesting under any of the benefit plans that are established by
Purchaser (at its sole discretion) that are applicable to such
employees, except for the purpose of benefit accrual.

                    (c)  To the extent legally possible, Seller
and Purchaser shall cooperate and use their reasonable Best
Efforts to provide for participants in the Aventis
Pharmaceuticals Puerto Rico Savings Plan (the "Seller's Savings
Plan") who are employed by Purchaser immediately following the
Closing Date to continue to repay their loans under the Seller's
Savings Plan in accordance with their original repayment
schedule.

          Section 8.2.   COBRA.  To the extent required by
applicable law and regulations, up to and including the Closing
Date, Seller shall be responsible for providing the continuation
of health coverage required by Section 4908B of the U.S. Internal
Revenue Code and Section 601 et seq. of ERISA ("COBRA") to Merger
& Acquisition Qualified Beneficiaries (as such term is defined in
applicable Internal Revenue Service Regulations) and their
"qualified beneficiaries" regarding all qualifying events
occurring prior to, or in connection with, the sale of the
Purchased Business.  Seller will maintain a group health plan in
Puerto Rico for this purpose as long as any Merger & Acquisition
Qualified Beneficiary, or any qualified beneficiary of such
person, who has elected COBRA coverage is eligible to receive
COBRA benefits.  Seller will notify Merger & Acquisition
Qualified Beneficiaries on or before the Closing Date that the
period during which they will be eligible for COBRA benefits will
run concurrently with the period during which such persons are
eligible to receive employer-paid health benefits pursuant to the
Separation Plan.  After such period of employer-paid health
benefits has elapsed, the cost of any such person's participation
in Seller's health plan during the remaining COBRA continuation
period, if any, will be paid by such Merger & Acquisition
Qualified Beneficiary in accordance with the provisions of COBRA
and applicable regulations.  After the Closing Date, to the
extent required by applicable law and regulations, Purchaser
shall be responsible for providing COBRA continuation coverage to
all employees who begin employment with Purchaser and their
respective "qualified beneficiaries", whenever it is so required
in accordance with the provisions of COBRA and applicable
regulations.  Purchaser shall indemnify, defend and hold Seller
harmless (and its directors, officers, employees and affiliates)
against any and all Damages asserted or imposed against Seller
based upon Purchaser's failure to comply with its duties under
COBRA, as legally required.

          Section 8.3.   SEPARATION BENEFITS.

            (a)    Reimbursement for Separation Benefits.
Although Purchaser will not adopt Seller's Separation Plan,
Purchaser shall reimburse Seller for Seller's cost of all
separation benefits payable with respect to Seller's employees in
accordance with the terms of the Separation Plan ("Separation
Benefits").  Seller shall require each employee who is eligible
to receive Separation Benefits to execute, as a condition of
receiving such benefits, an agreement including a release and
waiver of liability in favor of Seller and Purchaser.  * * * such
former employee shall receive full credit for the employee's
seniority with Seller.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser
shall pay employees pursuant to statutory severance benefit
guidelines, with full credit for seniority with Seller, if the
statutory benefits are greater than benefits that would have been
provided under the Separation Plan.  Purchaser shall indemnify,
defend, and hold harmless Seller, its affiliates, and their
respective present or former directors, officers, shareholders,
agents, representatives and employees from and against any
Damages arising out of or resulting from the termination or lay-
off by Purchaser of, or other action by Purchaser with respect
to, any former employee of Seller giving rise to a benefit
obligation under the Separation Plan.

            (b)    Mechanism for Reimbursement of Separation
Benefits.  Purchaser will reimburse Seller for Separation
Benefits as follows:

               (i)  Escrow Account - Purchaser will establish an
     escrow account with an escrow agent reasonably acceptable to
     Seller (the "Escrow Agent") where, no later than March 31,
     2005, Purchaser shall deposit in an interest-bearing trust
     account an amount equal to the Income Protection Pay (as
     defined in the Separation Plan) payable to each eligible
     employee of Seller whose employment is terminated by Seller
     effective March 31, 2005, and who has not been offered, or
     who has declined a non-Comparable Position (as defined in
     the Separation Plan) with Purchaser (the "Separated
     Employees").  Purchaser shall be entitled to any interest
     earned on funds deposited in the Escrow Account.

               (ii) Weekly Submission of Waivers and Benefits
     Calculation - On a weekly basis following March 31, 2005,
     Seller shall submit to the Escrow Agent copies of the signed
     waiver and release agreements of Separated Employees with
     respect to whom Seller has not previously submitted copies
     of such waiver agreements to the Escrow Agent.  Promptly
     upon, but no later than two business days following, its
     receipt of such agreements and a written computation of the
     Income Protection Pay payable to each Separated Employee for
     whom an agreement is submitted, the Escrow Agent shall
     disburse to Seller from the Escrow Account the funds
     required to pay the Income Protection Pay to such Separated
     Employees.

               (iii)     Liquidation of Escrow Account. Any funds
     remaining in the Escrow Account after June 30, 2005, may be
     returned to Purchaser and the Escrow Account may be closed,
     provided, however, that such action shall not affect
     Purchaser's obligation to reimburse Seller for Separation
     Benefits.

               (iv) Reimbursement for costs of Health Care and
     Dental Coverage.  Purchaser shall reimburse Seller for
     Seller's cost of providing health care and dental coverage
     (as opposed to the actual health and dental costs incurred)
     to Separated Employees who elect to continue such coverage
     with Seller pursuant to the Separation Plan.  Seller shall
     invoice Purchaser for reimbursement of such costs monthly.

            (c)    Waiver Requirement - Purchaser shall require
all of Seller's employees at the Closing Date who accept offers
of employment with Purchaser beginning immediately following the
Closing Date to waive, as a condition of such offer,
participation in and all benefits under the Separation Plan, and
to release Purchaser from any liability to such employees under
any of Seller's Benefit Plans.  Employees will not be asked to
waive any right under Act 80, and their service time with Seller
will be credited for purposes of any Act 80 severance
calculation.  Purchaser shall indemnify, defend, and hold
harmless Seller, its affiliates, and their respective present or
former directors, officers, shareholders, agents, representatives
and employees from and against any Damages arising out of or
resulting from claims by former eligible employees of Seller at
the Closing Date who accept employment by Purchaser immediately
following the Closing Date.  Each party will be responsible for
their respective legal fees and expenses.

            (d)    Union Employees - With respect to those
employees covered by the Collective Bargaining Agreement,
references in this section to "the Separation Plan" and
"Separation Benefits" shall mean such benefits as are agreed upon
by the Seller and the collective bargaining representative of
such employees, and "Income Protection Pay" shall mean any
counterpart benefit agreed upon with such representative.
Purchaser shall not be required to reimburse Seller to the extent
any such separation benefits exceed the Separation Benefits such
employees would have received if they had been eligible for
Separation Benefits under the Separation Plan.

          Section 8.4.   WARN ACT.  Seller shall be responsible
for all Damages, if any, arising under the Worker Adjustment and
Retraining Notification Act of 1988 ("WARN") including all
Damages imposed or incurred as a result of Seller's failure to
give any requisite WARN notice prior to the Effective Time.
After the Effective Time, Purchaser shall be responsible for
providing notice to the employees hired by Purchaser for any
plant closing or mass lay-off in accordance with the WARN Act.

Agreement shall be governed by and be construed in accordance

shall attempt in good faith to resolve the Dispute and shall meet
at a mutually acceptable time and place, and thereafter as often

Dispute.  All negotiations pursuant to this Section 9.2(b) shall
be confidential and shall be treated as compromise and settlement
negotiations for purposes of applicable rules of evidence.

            (c)    If the representatives of the parties are
unable to resolve the Dispute through negotiations within
ninety (90) days after delivery of the Dispute Notice then the

          Section 9.4.   AMENDMENTS.  This Agreement may be
amended only by a written instrument duly executed and delivered
by Seller and Purchaser.

          Section 9.5.   ENTIRE AGREEMENT; WAIVER, MODIFICATIONS.
This Agreement, together with the other agreements referred to
herein, constitutes a final and complete statement of all of the
arrangements among the parties with respect to the transactions
contemplated hereby and thereby.  No modification, discharge, or
waiver, in whole or in part, of any of the provisions hereof
shall be valid unless in writing and signed by the party against
whom the same is sought to be enforced. A failure or omission of
any party to insist, in any instance, upon strict performance by
another party of any term or provision of this Agreement or to
exercise any of its rights hereunder shall not be deemed a
modification of any term or provision hereof or a waiver or
relinquishment of the future performance of any such term or
provision by such party, nor shall such failure or omission
constitute a waiver of the right of such party to insist upon
future performance by another party of any such term or provision
or any other term or provision of this Agreement.

          Section 9.6.   TERMINATION.  Anything herein or
elsewhere to the contrary notwithstanding, this Agreement may be
terminated and abandoned at any time before the Closing under one
or more of the following circumstances:

            (a)    by mutual consent in writing of Seller and
Purchaser;

            (b)    by Seller or Purchaser, in writing, if the
Closing has not occurred by May 1, 2005, because any of the
conditions set forth in Section 4.2 or 4.3 have not been
satisfied, provided that a party may not terminate the Agreement
pursuant to this Section 9.6(b) if the Closing has not occurred
by reason of a breach by such party of any of its obligations
under this Agreement; or

            (c)by Seller, pursuant to Section 6.5(a)(iii).
          Section 9.7.   EFFECT OF TERMINATION.  In the event
this Agreement is validly terminated pursuant to Section 9.6, the
parties shall no longer be obligated to proceed to the Closing,
but all causes of action accruing prior to the termination of
this Agreement shall survive including causes of action for
Damages arising out of the breach of any covenant or
representation or warranty.

          Section 9.8.   INTERPRETATION.  The headings in this
Agreement are intended solely for convenience of reference and
shall be given no effect in the construction or interpretation of
this Agreement. Unless the context otherwise requires, the
singular includes the plural, and the plural includes the
singular.

          Section 9.9.   NO ASSIGNMENT; BINDING EFFECT.  This
Agreement is not assignable by any party without the prior
written consent of the other party.  Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Purchaser or Seller may assign this Agreement in whole
or in part to any of its Affiliates, but in no event shall such
an assignment release such assigning party from its obligations
hereunder.  This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure
to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective
successors and permitted assigns.

          Section 9.10.  INVALIDITY.  In the event that any
provision of this Agreement is declared to be void or
unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement shall not be
affected thereby and shall remain in full force and effect to the
extent feasible in the absence of the void and unenforceable
declaration. The parties furthermore agree to execute and deliver
such amendatory contractual provisions to accomplish lawfully as
nearly as possible the goals and purposes of the provision so
held to be void or unenforceable.

provided in this Agreement, whether or not the transactions
contemplated hereby are consummated, each party hereto shall pay
its own costs and expenses incurred in connection with the
negotiation, execution and closing of this Agreement and the
Related Agreements and the transactions contemplated hereby and
thereby.  In the event of termination of this Agreement, the

Agreement by another party.
