         the laws of the Province of Ontario and the laws of Canada applicable
         therein. The courts of the Province of Ontario shall have non-exclusive
         jurisdiction over any dispute arising out of the performance or
         interpretation of this agreement. The parties submit to the
         jurisdiction of the courts of the Province of Ontario. Notwithstanding
         the foregoing, the parties agree that the Consultant's services as

         performance, without the necessity of proving actual damages.

36.6.    The division of this Agreement into sections and the insertion of
         headings herein are for convenience of reference only and shall not
         affect the interpretation hereof.

36.7.    Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in
         any jurisdiction will, as to that jurisdiction, be ineffective to the
         extent of the prohibition or unenforceable without invalidating the
         remaining provisions of this Agreement, and any prohibition or
         unenforceability in any jurisdiction will not invalidate or render
         unenforceable that provision in any other jurisdiction. For any
         provision severed there will be deemed substituted a like provision to
         accomplish the intent of the parties as closely as possible to the

36.9.    Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, no amendment or waiver

         party to be bound. The failure of either party at any time to require
         performance by the other party of any provisions of this Agreement will
         in no way affect the right of that party to require performance of any
         provisions. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement will
         constitute a waiver of any other provision nor will any waiver of any
         breach of any provision of this Agreement be construed as a waiver of
         any continuing or succeeding breach of such provision unless otherwise
         expressly provided.
