21.Miscellaneous. This Agreement shall be construed under and governed by the laws of the State of Nevada other than its conflicts of laws principles. This Agreement contains the complete understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and supersedes all other prior agreements, understandings and negotiations relating to the same subject matter. This Agreement may only be modified by a written instrument signed by each of the parties hereto. No provisions of this Agreement will be interpreted in favor of, or against, any of the parties hereto by reason of the extent to which any such party or its counsel participated in the drafting thereof or by reason of the extent to which any such provision is inconsistent with any prior draft hereof or thereof. Failure to require strict compliance with any term or provision of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of a party’s right to insist upon strict compliance with each and every provision of this Agreement. No waiver of any terms and conditions of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a waiver of any subsequent breach of that or any other term of condition. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and same instrument. The provisions of Item 3 (the last paragraph), 4D, 4I, 4M, 4N, 6H, 7, 8, 9, 11 and 14 through 21 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and Executive’s employment with the Company. This Agreement may be executed by any party by delivery of a facsimile signature, which signature shall have the same force as an original signature. Any party which delivers a facsimile signature shall promptly thereafter deliver an originally executed signature to the other party; provided, however, that the failure to deliver an original signature page shall not affect the validity of any signature delivered by facsimile. The paragraph headings contained in this Agreement are for reference only and shall not be deemed to

impart substantive meeting to any provision of this Agreement. Each party has had the opportunity to be represented by counsel of its choice in negotiating this Agreement. This Agreement shall therefore be deemed to have been negotiated and prepared at the joint request and direction of the parties, at arm’s length, with the advice and participation of counsel, and shall be interpreted in accordance with its terms and without favor to any party.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Agreement has been signed, sealed and delivered as of the date and year first above written.
