No remedy shall be exclusive of any other remedy. All available remedies shall be cumulative.

11.     NO RIGHTS OR LIABILITIES AS SHAREHOLDER. Nothing contained in this Warrant shall be construed as conferring upon the Holder hereof any rights as a shareholder of the Company or as imposing any obligation on the Holder to purchase any securities or as imposing any liabilities on the Holder as a shareholder of the Company, whether such obligation or liabilities are asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.
