CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD
TO CONFLICT OF LAW PRINCIPLES.  EACH PARTY AGREES THAT ANY ACTION OR
PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING IN ANY WAY TO THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE
BROUGHT IN A U.S. FEDERAL OR STATE COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION SITTING IN
THE COUNTY, CITY, AND STATE OF NEW YORK.  EACH PARTY HEREBY
IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY CONSENTS TO THE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURT AND
HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY DEFENSE OF AN INCONVENIENT

ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE

    Section 8.  Entire Agreement; Amendments.
This Agreement, the Share Exchange Agreement, the Amendment and Exchange
Agreement and such other documents contemplated thereby supersedes all other
prior oral or written agreements among the Investor, EBOF, their affiliates and
Persons acting on their behalf with respect to the matters discussed herein, and
this Agreement and the instruments referenced herein contain the entire
understanding of the parties with respect to the matters covered herein and
therein and, except as specifically set forth herein or therein, neither EBOF
nor the Investor makes any representation, warranty, covenant or undertaking
with respect to such matters.  No provision hereof may be waived other
than by an instrument in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement is
sought.

     

    Section 9.  Severability.  If
any provision of this Agreement is prohibited by law or otherwise determined to
be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction,
the

     

    
      
         

      

      
         

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

    provision
that would otherwise be prohibited, invalid or unenforceable shall be deemed
amended to apply to the broadest extent that it would be valid and enforceable,
and the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision shall not affect the
validity of the remaining provisions of this Agreement so long as this Agreement
as so modified continues to express, without material change, the original
intentions of the parties as to the subject matter hereof and the prohibited
nature, invalidity or unenforceability of the provision(s) in question does not
substantially impair the respective expectations or reciprocal obligations of
the parties or the practical realization of the benefits that would otherwise be
conferred upon the parties.  The parties will endeavor in good faith
negotiations to replace the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s)
with a valid provision(s), the effect of which comes as close as possible to
that of the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s).

     

    Section 10.  No Third Party
Beneficiaries.  This Agreement is intended for the benefit of
the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns, and is
not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other
person.

     

    Section 11  Further
Assurances.  Each party shall use its commercially reasonable
efforts to do and perform, or cause to be done and performed, all such further
acts and things, and shall execute and deliver all such other agreements,
certificates, instruments and documents, as any other party may reasonably
request in order to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of this
Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated
hereby.

     

    Section 12  Counterparts.  This
Agreement may be executed in two or more identical counterparts, all of which
shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when
counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party;
provided that a facsimile signature shall be considered due execution and shall
be binding upon the signatory thereto with the same force and effect as if the
signature were an original, not a facsimile signature.

     

    Section 13  Successors.  This Agreement
shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their
respective successors and assigns, including any purchasers of the Exchanged
Notes.

    1.           The

    2.           The
Company hereby represents and warrants to the Investor as follows:

under the laws of the State of Nevada, and has the requisite corporate power and
authorization to own its properties and to carry on its business as now being
conducted. The Company is duly qualified as a foreign corporation to do business
and is in good standing in every jurisdiction in which its ownership of property
or the nature of the business conducted by it prior to the Share Exchange makes
such qualification necessary, except to the extent that the failure to be so
qualified or be in good standing would not reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect.  As used in this Agreement, "Material Adverse
Effect" means any material adverse effect on the business, properties, assets,
operations, results of operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or
prospects of the Company, taken as a whole, or on the transactions contemplated
hereby, under the Exchanged Notes and the Share Exchange Agreement or by the
agreements and instruments to be entered into in connection herewith or
therewith (collectively, the "Transaction Documents"), or on
the authority or ability of the Company to perform its obligations under the
Transaction Documents.

     

    (b)           The
Company has the requisite power and authority to enter into and perform its
obligations under the Transaction Documents and to issue the Exchanged Notes and
Conversion Shares in accordance with the terms hereof and
thereof.  The execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents by
the Company and the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated
hereby and thereby, including, without limitation, the issuance of the Exchanged
Notes and the reservation and issuance of the Conversion Shares into escrow as
well as the release from escrow upon conversion of the Exchanged Notes have been
duly authorized by the Company's Board of Directors and no further consent or
authorization is required by the Company, its Board of Directors or its
stockholders.  This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents have
been duly executed and delivered by the Company, and constitute the legal, valid
and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in
accordance with their respective terms, except as such enforceability may be
limited by general principles of equity or applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium, liquidation or similar laws relating to, or
affecting generally, the enforcement of applicable creditors' rights and
remedies.

     

    
      
         

      

      
         

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

    (c)           The
execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents by the Company
and the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated hereby and
thereby will not (i) result in a violation of the Certificate of Incorporation
of the Company, any capital stock of the Company or the Bylaws of the Company or
(ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event which with notice or
lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or give to others any
rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any
agreement, indenture or instrument to which the Company is a party, except
(solely with respect to clause (ii) above) as would not be reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, or (iii) result in a violation of
any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree (including federal and
state securities laws and regulations and the rules and regulations of Pink
Sheets LLC or the OTC Bulletin Board (as applicable, the "Principal Market")) applicable
to the Company or by which any property or asset of the Company is bound or
affected.

     

    (d)           The
issuance of the Exchanged Notes are duly authorized and, upon issuance shall be
free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue
thereof.  As of date hereof, a number of shares of Common Stock shall
have been duly authorized and reserved for issuance which equals or exceeds 100%
of the aggregate of the maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon
conversion of the Notes.  Upon conversion in accordance with the
Exchanged Notes, the Conversion Shares will be validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable and free from all preemptive or similar rights, taxes, liens and
charges with respect to the issue thereof, with the holders being entitled to
all rights accorded to a holder of Common Stock.

     

    (e)           The
Exchanged Notes are, and upon issuance in accordance with the Exchanged Notes,
the Conversion Shares shall be, unrestricted securities issued pursuant to
Section 3(a)(10) of the Securities Act (in accordance with the Settlement
Agreement and Order (as defined in the Settlement Agreement) relating to the
same).  The Conversion Shares, when issued, shall be freely tradable
on the NASDAQ OTC Bulletin Board without restriction and will not contain any
restrictive legend.

     

    (f)           The
Company is not required to obtain any consent, authorization or order of, or
make any filing or registration with, any court, governmental agency or any
regulatory or self-regulatory agency or any other person in order for it to
execute, deliver or perform any of its obligations under or contemplated by the
Transaction Documents, in each case in accordance with the terms hereof or
thereof.  All consents, authorizations, orders, filings and
registrations which the Company is required to obtain pursuant to the preceding
sentence have been obtained or effected on or prior to the date hereof, and the
Company and is unaware of any facts or circumstances which might prevent the
Company from obtaining or effecting any of the registration, application or
filings pursuant to the preceding sentence.  The Company is not in
violation of the listing requirements of the Principal Market and has no
knowledge of any facts which would reasonably lead to delisting or suspension of
the Common Stock in the foreseeable future.

     

    (g)           There
is no action, suit, proceeding, or to the knowledge of the Company, inquiry or
investigation before or by either Principal Market, any court, public board,
government agency, self-regulatory organization or body pending or, to the
knowledge of the Company, threatened against or affecting the Company, the
Common Stock or any of the

     

    
      
         

      

      
         

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

    Company's
officers or directors in their capacities as such, that is expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect.

     

    (h)           To
the Company's knowledge, neither this Agreement, the other Transaction
Documents, nor any other written statements or certificates made or delivered in
connection herewith, when taken as a whole, contains any untrue statement of a
material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the statements
contained herein or therein not misleading in light of the circumstances under
which they were made.

     

    (i)           The
Company represents and warrants to the Investor all of the representations and
warrants of the Company set forth in the Share Exchange Agreement, as if such
representations and warranties are set forth herein, mutatis
mutandis.

     

    (j)           The

forth on Table II of Schedule 2(j) hereto are the only directors of the
Company.

     

    Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Agreement, under no circumstances shall the
foregoing covenants or warranties or other provisions herein, be deemed to cause
the Company in any way to assume or otherwise be or become, directly or
indirectly, liable or responsible for the indebtedness or any other liabilities
or obligations of the EBOF or any of its Subsidiaries owed to Investor, as more
fully set out in the Release or, to cause the Release to be
invalidated.

    

    3.           The
Investor hereby represents and warrants to the Company all of the
representations and warrants of the Investor set forth in the Settlement
Exchange Agreement, as if such representations and warranties are set forth

the purposes of Rule 144, the Company acknowledges that the holding period of
the Note (as defined in the Settlement Exchange Agreement) (including the
corresponding shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Note) may

be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the provision
that would otherwise be prohibited, invalid or unenforceable shall be deemed
amended to apply to the broadest extent that it would be valid and enforceable,

connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed
herein, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit,
action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the

improper.  Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of
process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or
proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address for such
notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute
good and sufficient

     

    
      
         

      

      
         

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

    service
of process and notice thereof.  Nothing contained herein shall be
deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by
law.  If any provision of this Agreement shall be invalid or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not
affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder of this Agreement in that
jurisdiction or the validity or enforceability of any provision of this
Agreement in any other jurisdiction.  EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES
ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE
ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR ARISING OUT

request in order to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of this
Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated
hereby.

     

    14.           The

parties to express their mutual intent, and no rules of strict construction will
be applied against any party.

     

    15.           This
Agreement supersedes all other prior oral or written agreements between the

has good and valid title to the Exchanged Notes free and clear of lien,
mortgage, security interest, pledge, charge or encumbrance of any kind ("Liens") subject only to the

execution and delivery by EBOF of this Agreement, the exchange of the Exchanged
Notes and the performance by EBOF of its obligations under this Agreement do not

is acting solely for EBOF's own account, and has made EBOF's own independent

appropriate or proper for EBOF based upon EBOF's own judgment and upon advice of
such advisors as EBOF deems necessary.  EBOF acknowledges and agrees
that EBOF is not relying, and has not relied, upon any communication (written or
oral) of the Investor or any affiliate, employee or agent of the Investor with
respect to the legal, accounting, tax or other implications of this Agreement
and that EBOF has conducted EBOF's own analyses of the legal, accounting, tax
and other implications hereof and thereof; it being understood that information
and explanations related to the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall not
be considered investment advice or a recommendation to enter into this
Agreement.  EBOF acknowledges that neither the Investor nor any
affiliate, employee or agent of the Investor is acting as a fiduciary for or an
advisor to EBOF in respect of this Agreement.

its obligations under this Agreement.  The Investor is not acting in

authorized, executed and delivered on behalf of the Investor and shall
constitute the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Investor enforceable
against it in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be

reorganization, moratorium, liquidation and other similar laws relating to, or
affecting generally, the enforcement of applicable creditors' rights and

    Section 7.  Governing Law; Submission to
Jurisdiction.  THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND
CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD
TO CONFLICT OF LAW PRINCIPLES.  EACH PARTY AGREES THAT ANY ACTION OR
PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING IN ANY WAY TO THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE
BROUGHT IN A U.S. FEDERAL OR STATE COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION SITTING IN
THE COUNTY, CITY, AND STATE OF NEW YORK.  EACH PARTY HEREBY
IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY CONSENTS TO THE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURT AND
HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY DEFENSE OF AN INCONVENIENT
FORUM OR A LACK OF PERSONAL JURISDICTION TO THE MAINTENANCE OF ANY ACTION OR
PROCEEDING AND ANY RIGHT OF JURISDICTION OR VENUE ON ACCOUNT OF THE PLACE OF

ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE
ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF
THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

     

    Section 8.  Entire Agreement; Amendments.
This Agreement, the Share Exchange Agreement, the Amendment and Exchange
Agreement and such other documents contemplated thereby supersedes all other
prior oral or written agreements among the Investor, EBOF, their affiliates and
Persons acting on their behalf with respect to the matters discussed herein, and
this Agreement and the instruments referenced herein contain the entire
understanding of the parties with respect to the matters covered herein and
therein and, except as specifically set forth herein or therein, neither EBOF
nor the Investor makes any representation, warranty, covenant or undertaking
with respect to such matters.  No provision hereof may be waived other
than by an instrument in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement is
sought.

     

    Section 9.  Severability.  If
any provision of this Agreement is prohibited by law or otherwise determined to
be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction,
the

     

    
      
         

      

      
         

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

    provision
that would otherwise be prohibited, invalid or unenforceable shall be deemed
amended to apply to the broadest extent that it would be valid and enforceable,
and the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision shall not affect the
validity of the remaining provisions of this Agreement so long as this Agreement
as so modified continues to express, without material change, the original
intentions of the parties as to the subject matter hereof and the prohibited
nature, invalidity or unenforceability of the provision(s) in question does not
substantially impair the respective expectations or reciprocal obligations of
the parties or the practical realization of the benefits that would otherwise be
conferred upon the parties.  The parties will endeavor in good faith
negotiations to replace the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s)
with a valid provision(s), the effect of which comes as close as possible to
that of the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s).

     

    Section 10.  No Third Party
Beneficiaries.  This Agreement is intended for the benefit of
the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns, and is
not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other
person.

     

    Section 11  Further
Assurances.  Each party shall use its commercially reasonable
efforts to do and perform, or cause to be done and performed, all such further
acts and things, and shall execute and deliver all such other agreements,
certificates, instruments and documents, as any other party may reasonably
request in order to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of this
Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated
hereby.

     

    Section 12  Counterparts.  This
Agreement may be executed in two or more identical counterparts, all of which
shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when
counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party;
provided that a facsimile signature shall be considered due execution and shall
be binding upon the signatory thereto with the same force and effect as if the
signature were an original, not a facsimile signature.

     

    Section 13  Successors.  This Agreement
shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their
respective successors and assigns, including any purchasers of the Exchanged
Notes.

    WHEREAS, concurrently
herewith, EBOF, Earth LNG, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of EBOF and New Earth

Earth LNG, Inc. ("LNG

    WHEREAS, the Company desires
to enter into this Agreement as a condition to closing of the Share Exchange and
in order to induce the Investor to enter into the Release.

     

    NOW, THEREFORE, in
consideration of the foregoing and for other good and valuable consideration,
the adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as
follows:

     

    1.           The
Company hereby agrees to take all actions necessary to effect the transfer of
the Exchanged Notes to the Investor, including, without limitation, having new
notes (in such denominations as the Investor may reasonably request)
representing the Exchanged Notes registered in the name of the Investor;
provided, that the Company and the Investor hereby agree that until the Closing
Date (as defined in the Share Exchange Agreement), the Company shall not effect
any conversion of the Exchanged Notes, and the Investor shall not have the right
to convert any portion of the Exchanged Note, pursuant to Section 4 of the
Exchanged Note or otherwise.

     

    
      
         

      

      
         

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

    2.           The
Company hereby represents and warrants to the Investor as follows:

    
      (a)           The
Company is a corporation duly organized and validly existing in good standing
under the laws of the State of Nevada, and has the requisite corporate power and
authorization to own its properties and to carry on its business as now being
conducted. The Company is duly qualified as a foreign corporation to do business
and is in good standing in every jurisdiction in which its ownership of property
or the nature of the business conducted by it prior to the Share Exchange makes
such qualification necessary, except to the extent that the failure to be so
qualified or be in good standing would not reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect.  As used in this Agreement, "Material Adverse
Effect" means any material adverse effect on the business, properties, assets,
operations, results of operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or
prospects of the Company, taken as a whole, or on the transactions contemplated
hereby, under the Exchanged Notes and the Share Exchange Agreement or by the
agreements and instruments to be entered into in connection herewith or
therewith (collectively, the "Transaction Documents"), or on
the authority or ability of the Company to perform its obligations under the
Transaction Documents.

    (b)           The
Company has the requisite power and authority to enter into and perform its
obligations under the Transaction Documents and to issue the Exchanged Notes and
Conversion Shares in accordance with the terms hereof and
thereof.  The execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents by
the Company and the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated
hereby and thereby, including, without limitation, the issuance of the Exchanged
Notes and the reservation and issuance of the Conversion Shares into escrow as
well as the release from escrow upon conversion of the Exchanged Notes have been
duly authorized by the Company's Board of Directors and no further consent or
authorization is required by the Company, its Board of Directors or its
stockholders.  This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents have
been duly executed and delivered by the Company, and constitute the legal, valid
and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in
accordance with their respective terms, except as such enforceability may be
limited by general principles of equity or applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium, liquidation or similar laws relating to, or
affecting generally, the enforcement of applicable creditors' rights and
remedies.

     

    
      
         

      

      
         

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

    (c)           The
execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents by the Company
and the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated hereby and
thereby will not (i) result in a violation of the Certificate of Incorporation
of the Company, any capital stock of the Company or the Bylaws of the Company or
(ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event which with notice or

    8.           This
Agreement may be executed in two or more identical counterparts, all of which
shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective
when

     

    
      
         

      

      
         

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

    counterparts
have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party; provided that a
facsimile signature shall be considered due execution and shall be binding upon
the signatory thereto with the same force and effect as if the signature were an
original, not a facsimile signature.

     

    9.           The
headings of this Agreement are for convenience of reference and shall not form
part of, or affect the interpretation of, this Agreement.

     

    10.           If
any provision of this Agreement is prohibited by law or otherwise determined to
be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the provision
that would otherwise be prohibited, invalid or unenforceable shall be deemed
amended to apply to the broadest extent that it would be valid and enforceable,
and the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision shall not affect the
validity of the remaining provisions of this Agreement so long as this Agreement
as so modified continues to express, without material change, the original
intentions of the parties as to the subject matter hereof and the prohibited
nature, invalidity or unenforceability of the provision(s) in question does not
substantially impair the respective expectations or reciprocal obligations of
the parties or the practical realization of the benefits that would otherwise be
conferred upon the parties.  The parties will endeavor in good faith
negotiations to replace the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s)
with a valid provision(s), the effect of which comes as close as possible to
that of the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s).

     

    11.           All
questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation
of this Agreement shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of New

rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdictions) that would
cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of
New York.  Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive
jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in The City of New York,
Borough of Manhattan, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in
connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed
herein, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit,
action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the
jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought
in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is
improper.  Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of
process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or
proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address for such
notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute
good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof.  Nothing
contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process
in any manner permitted by law.  If any provision of this Agreement
shall be invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity or
unenforceability shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the
remainder of this Agreement in that jurisdiction or the validity or
enforceability of any provision of this Agreement in any other
jurisdiction.  EACH
PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE, AND AGREES NOT TO
REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR IN
CONNECTION HEREWITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION
CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

     

    
      
         

      

      
         

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

    12.           This
Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective
permitted successors and assigns, and is not for the benefit of, nor may any
provision hereof be enforced by, any other Person.

     

    13.           Each
party shall do and perform, or cause to be done and performed, all such further
acts and things, and shall execute and deliver all such other agreements,
certificates, instruments and documents, as the other party may reasonably
request in order to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of this
Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated
hereby.

     

    14.           The
language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the
parties to express their mutual intent, and no rules of strict construction will
be applied against any party.

     

    15.           This
Agreement supersedes all other prior oral or written agreements between the
Investor, the Company, their affiliates and Persons acting on their behalf with
respect to the matters discussed herein, and this Agreement (other than the
Release, which shall remain in full force and effect) and the instruments
referenced herein contain the entire understanding of the parties with respect
to the matters covered herein and therein and, except as specifically set forth
herein or therein, neither the Company nor the Investor makes any
representation, warranty, covenant or undertaking with respect to such
matters.  No provision of this Agreement may be amended other than by

provision hereof may be waived other than by an instrument in writing signed by
the party against whom enforcement is sought.
