MISCELLANEOUS.
 
(a) Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Jury Trial.

(b) 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. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or by an e-mail which contains a portable document format (.pdf) file of an executed signature page, such signature page shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such signature page were an original thereof.
 
(c) Headings; Gender. The headings of this Agreement are for convenience of reference and shall not form part of, or affect the interpretation of, this Agreement. Unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, each pronoun herein shall be deemed to include the masculine, feminine, neuter, singular and plural forms thereof. The terms “including,” “includes,” “include” and words of like import shall be construed broadly as if followed by the words “without limitation.”  The terms “herein,” “he reunder,” “hereof” and words of like import refer to this entire Agreement instead of just the provision in which they are found.
 
(d) Severability. 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.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document (including, without limitation, the other Exchange Documents) (and without implication that the following is requir ed or applicable), it is the intention of the parties that in no event shall amounts and value paid by the Company and/or its subsidiaries (as the case may be), or payable to or received by the Holder, under the Transaction Documents (including, without limitation, under the Exchange Documents), including without limitation, any amounts that would be characterized as “interest” under applicable law, exceed amounts permitted under any such applicable law. Accordingly, if any obligation to pay, payment made to the Holder, or collection by the Holder pursuant any of the Transaction Documents (including, without limitation, under the Exchange Documents) is finally judicially determined to be contrary to any such applicable law, such obligation to pay, payment or collection shall be deemed to have been made by mutual mistake of the Holder and the Company and such amount shall be deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximum amount or rate of interest, as the case may be, as would not be so prohibited by the applicable law. Such adjustment shall be effected, to the extent necessary, by reducing or refunding, at the option of the Holder, the amount of interest or any other amounts which would constitute unlawful amounts required to be paid or actually paid to the Holder under the Transaction Documents (including, without limitation, under the Exchange Documents). For greater certainty, to the extent that any interest, charges, fees, expenses or other amounts required to be paid to or received by the Holder under any of the Transaction Documents (including, without limitation, under the Exchange Documents) or related thereto are held to be within the meaning of “interest” or another applicable term to otherwise be violative of applicable law, such amounts shall be pro-rated over the period of time to which they relate.
