manner the final, absolute and unconditional nature of this Agreement and the covenant not to sue set forth herein.

of liability of any nature whatsoever arising from or related to the subject of this Agreement.


 


5.  Governing
Law. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without giving
effect to that body of laws pertaining to conflict of laws.


 


6.  Entire
Agreement. This Agreement contains the entire agreement and understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter

This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered will be deemed
an original, and all of which together shall constitute one and the same agreement. This Agreement may be executed and delivered
by facsimile or other means of electronic delivery and upon such delivery the signature will be deemed to have the same effect
as if the original signature had been delivered to the other party.


 


9.  Severability.
If any provision of this Agreement is determined by any court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable
in any respect, such provision will be enforced to the maximum extent possible given the intent of the parties hereto. If such
clause or provision cannot be so enforced, such provision shall be stricken from this Agreement and the remainder of this Agreement
shall be enforced as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable clause or provision had (to the extent not enforceable) never been
contained in this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the value of this Agreement based upon the substantial benefit
of the bargain for any party is materially impaired, which determination as made by the presiding court of competent jurisdiction
shall be binding, then the parties hereto agree to substitute such provision(s) with suitable and equitable provision(s).
