documents as may reasonably be requested by the other Party to
effectuate the provisions of this Amendment.

 

3.4       Assignment.
No Party may assign its rights or obligations under this Amendment
without the prior written consent of the other Party. Any purported
assignment without the other Party’s prior written consent
will be void ab initio.

Binding Effect. Each Party represents to the other that its
execution of this Amendment has been authorized by all necessary
corporate action and that this Amendment constitutes a binding

Fees. If a Party is in default under this Amendment the
other Party will have the right, at the expense of the defaulting
Party, to retain an attorney to make demand, enforce remedies, or
otherwise protect or enforce the rights of the non-defaulting
Party. A Party in default shall pay all attorneys’ fees and
costs so incurred.

 

3.7       Consents
and Approvals. Unless specifically stated to the contrary in
this Amendment (i.e., by stating that a Party’s consent or
approval may be granted or withheld in its sole discretion),
whenever any provision of this Amendment requires a Party to

condition, withhold or delay such consent or approval, provided
that the Party seeking the consent is not in default under the

any provision of this Amendment will be effective unless made in
writing and signed by each of the Parties.

occurrence.

venture, partnership, or other form of business association between
the Parties.

If for any reason any provision of this Amendment is determined by
a tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be legally invalid or
unenforceable, the validity of the remainder of the Amendment will
not be affected and such provision will be deemed modified to the
minimum extent necessary to make such provision consistent with
applicable law and. in its modified form, such provision will then
be enforceable and enforced.

headings in this Amendment have no independent
meaning.

 

3.16       Disclaimer—Preparation

counsel for Star Gold. The Parties agree, however, that this fact
shall not create any presumption in favor or against any Party in
respect of the interpretation or enforcement of this Amendment.

independent legal and tax counsel prior to its execution. By
executing this Amendment each such Party represents (i) that it has
read and understands this Amendment, (ii) that it has had the
