(j)                 Amendments and Waivers. No amendment of any provision of this Agreement shall be valid unless the same shall be in writing and signed by SMFI and GANDTEX. GANDTEX may consent to any such amendment at any time prior to the Closing with the prior authorization of its board of directors; provided, however, that any amendment effected after GANDTEX have approved this Agreement will be subject to the restrictions contained in the Nevada Revised Statutes of the State of Nevada. No waiver by any Party of any provision of this Agreement or any default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder, whether intentional or not, shall be valid unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Party making such waiver nor shall such waiver be deemed to extend to any prior or subsequent default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder or affect in any way any rights arising by virtue of any prior or subsequent such default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty or covenant.

(k)               Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof or the validity or enforceability of the offending tam or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction.

 

(l)                 Expenses. Each of SMFI, SMFI SUB and GANDTEX, and their Subsidiaries will bear his, her, or its own costs and expenses (including legal fees and expenses) incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby; provided, however, that GANDTEX shall also bear the costs and expenses of GANDTEX and its Subsidiaries (including all of their legal fees and expenses) in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby in the event that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, all transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other such Taxes, and all conveyance fees, recording charges and other fees and charges (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be paid by GANDTEX when due, and GANDTEX will, at their own expense, file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to all such Taxes, fees and charges, and, if required by applicable law, the Parties will, and will cause their Affiliates to, join in the execution of any such Tax Returns and other documentation.

 

(m)                             Construction. The Parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the Parties and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any Party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement. Any reference to any federal, state, local, or foreign statute or law shall be deemed also to refer to all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, unless the context requires otherwise. The word “including” shall mean including without limitation. Nothing in this Agreement or the Exhibits shall be deemed adequate to disclose an exception to a representation or warranty made herein unless such disclosure identifies the exception with reasonable particularity and describes the relevant facts in reasonable detail. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the mere listing (or inclusion of a copy) of a document or other item shall not be deemed adequate to disclose an exception to a representation or warranty made herein (unless the representation or warranty has to do with the existence of the document or other items itself). The Parties intend that each representation, warranty, and covenant contained herein shall have independent significance. If any Party has breached any representation, warranty, or covenant contained herein in any respect, the fact that there exists another representation, warranty, or covenant relating to the same subject matter (regardless of the relative levels of specificity) which the Party has not breached shall not detract from or mitigate the fact that the Party is in breach of the first representation, warranty, or covenant.

 

(n)                                 Incorporation of Exhibits and Schedules. The Exhibits and Schedules identified in this Agreement are incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof.

 

(o)                                 Specific Performance. Each Party acknowledges and agrees that the other Party would be damaged irreparably in the event any provision of this Agreement not performed in accordance with its specific terms or otherwise is breached, so that a Party shall be entitled to injunctive relief to prevent breaches of the provisions of this Agreement and to enforce specifically this Agreement and the terms and provisions hereof in addition to any other remedy to which such Party may be entitled, at law or in equity. In particular, the Parties acknowledge that the business of GANDTEX and its Subsidiaries is unique and recognize and affirm that in the event GANDTEX Stockholders breach this Agreement, money damages would be inadequate and SMFI would have no adequate remedy at law, so that SMFI shall have the right, in addition to any other rights and remedies existing in its favor, to enforce its rights and the other Parties’ obligations hereunder not only by action for damages but also by action for specific performance, injunctive, and/or other equitable relief.

 21 
 

 

 

(p)                                 Submission to Jurisdiction. Each of the Parties submits to the jurisdiction of any state or federal court sitting in Nevada in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating in this Agreement and agrees that all claims in respect of the action or proceeding may be heard and determined in any such court.

 

(q)                                 Indemnity Agreement. GANDTEX will indemnify SMFI against any disclosed or undisclosed liabilities pursuant to a separate indemnity agreement between the parties.

 

(r)                                    Ancillary Document. The Parties agree that all ancillary agreements necessary for the closing, of this Agreement will not be unreasonably withheld including but not limited to all shareholder and director consents, bill of sale, title transfers, license transfers, and due diligence production.

 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties hereto have executed this Agreement as of the date first above written.
