(a)                                  TransTex and Buyer agree that the Cash Portion and the Assumed Liabilities (plus other relevant items) shall be allocated among the Purchased Assets for all purposes (including Tax and financial accounting) as shown on the allocation schedule,  the form of which is attached hereto as Schedule 2.7 (the “Allocation Schedule”).  A draft of the Allocation Schedule shall be prepared by Buyer and delivered to TransTex within 60 days following the Closing Date.  If TransTex notifies Buyer in writing that TransTex objects to one or more items reflected in the Allocation Schedule, TransTex and Buyer shall negotiate in good faith to resolve such dispute; provided, however, that if TransTex and Buyer are unable to resolve any dispute with respect to the Allocation Schedule within 90 days following the Closing Date, such dispute shall be resolved pursuant to Section 2.7(b) below.  Buyer and TransTex shall file all Tax Returns (including amended returns and claims for refund) and information reports (including IRS Form 8594 and any required exhibits thereto) in a manner consistent with the Allocation Schedule. Neither Buyer nor TransTex shall take any position which is inconsistent with the Allocation Schedule unless required to do so under applicable Law.  If the Purchase Price is adjusted pursuant to Section 11.8(d), the allocation of the Cash Portion as set forth on Schedule 2.7 shall be appropriately modified to reflect increases or decreases in the various asset categories which give rise to such adjustments.

(b)                                 If TransTex and Buyer fail to reach an agreement with respect to the Allocation Schedule, then any amounts remaining in dispute shall be submitted for resolution to the office of Deloitte & Touche LLP, who TransTex and Buyer acknowledge does not currently represent either of them, or, if Deloitte & Touche LLP is unable to serve, Buyer and TransTex shall appoint by mutual agreement the office of an impartial nationally recognized firm of independent certified public accountants other than TransTex’s accountants or Buyer’s Accountants (the “Independent Accountants”) who, acting as experts and not arbitrators, shall resolve the disputed amounts only and make any adjustments to the Allocation Schedule.  The parties hereto agree that all adjustments shall be made without regard to materiality. The Independent Accountants shall only decide the specific items under dispute by the parties.  The fees and expenses of the Independent Accountants shall be borne equally by TransTex and Buyer.

2.8                                 Third Party Consents.  To the extent that TransTex’s rights under any Assigned Contract or Permit constituting a Purchased Asset, or any other Purchased Asset, may not be assigned to Buyer without the consent or waiver of another Person which TransTex has in good faith attempted to obtain but has not been obtained by the Closing, this Agreement shall not constitute an agreement to assign the same if an attempted assignment would constitute a breach thereof or be unlawful, and TransTex, at its sole expense, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any such required consent(s)  or waiver(s) as promptly as

16

possible. To the extent that such consents and waivers are not obtained by TransTex and the applicable Assigned Contract, Permit or other Purchased Asset is not a Required Consent, this Agreement, to the extent permitted by Law, shall constitute an equitable assignment by TransTex to Buyer of all rights, benefits, title and interest in and to such Assigned Contracts and Permits of TransTex, and Buyer, until each such consent is obtained or Buyer replaces the Assigned Contract or Permit with a substantially similar contract or permit, shall be deemed to be TransTex’s agent or subcontractor, as applicable, for the purpose of completing, fulfilling and discharging all of TransTex’s rights and liabilities arising after the Closing Date under such Assigned Contracts and Permits of TransTex.  TransTex shall provide (or have its agents and subcontractors provide) Buyer with the proceeds and benefits of such Assigned Contracts and Permits of TransTex, and Buyer shall be obligated for all liabilities under such Assigned Contracts and Permits of TransTex arising after the Closing Date which shall be treated as Assumed Liabilities hereunder.  At Buyer’s direction, TransTex shall instruct any third-party to such Assigned Contract that any payments owing to TransTex under such Assigned Contract from such third-party shall be made to an account designated by Buyer.

ARTICLE VII
NON COMPETITION; NON SOLICITATION

7.1           Non Competition; Non Solicitation.  TransTex acknowledges that the agreements and covenants contained in this ARTICLE VII are essential to protect the Business being acquired by Buyer and Buyer would not undertake the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or by the other Transaction Documents but for such agreements and covenants.  Accordingly, TransTex covenants and agrees as follows:

(a)           For a period of two (2) years commencing on the Closing Date (the “Restricted Period”), TransTex shall not, and shall not permit any of its Affiliates to, directly or indirectly, (i) engage in or assist others in engaging in the Business in any state where TransTex conducts the Business as of the Closing Date (the “Restricted Territory”); (ii) have an interest in any Person other than Eureka Hunter Holdings that engages directly or indirectly in the Business in the Restricted Territory in any capacity, including as a partner, shareholder, member, officer, director, investor, employee, principal, agent, lender, trustee or consultant; or (iii) cause, induce or encourage any material actual or prospective customer, supplier or licensor of the Business (including any existing or former customer of TransTex and any Person that becomes a customer of the Business after the Closing), or any other Person who has a material business relationship with the Business, to terminate or modify any such actual or prospective relationship. Notwithstanding the foregoing, TransTex may own, directly or indirectly, solely as an investment, securities of any Person traded on any national securities exchange if TransTex is not a controlling Person of, or a member of a group which controls, such Person and does not, directly or indirectly, own 5% or more of any class of securities of such Person.

(b)           During the Restricted Period, TransTex shall not, and shall not permit any of its Affiliates to, directly or indirectly, hire or solicit any person who is or was employed by Buyer in the Business during the Restricted Period, or encourage any such employee to leave such employment or hire any such employee who has left such employment, except pursuant to a general solicitation which is not directed specifically to any such employees; provided, that nothing in this Section 7.1(b) shall prevent TransTex or any of its Affiliates from hiring (i) any employee whose employment has been terminated by Buyer, (ii) TransTex’s accounting employee working in Dallas, Texas, or (iii) after 180 days from the date of termination of employment, any employee whose employment has been terminated by the employee.

(c)           During the Restricted Period, TransTex shall not, and shall not permit any of its Affiliates to, directly or indirectly, solicit or entice, or attempt to solicit or entice, any customers of the Buyer or potential clients or customers of the Buyer for purposes of diverting their business or services from the Buyer.

(d)           After the Closing Date, TransTex shall not disparage Buyer, Eureka Hunter, Eureka Hunter Holdings or Magnum Hunter or any of their Affiliates, stockholders, members, directors, officers, employees or agents.

7.2           Injunctive Relief.  TransTex acknowledges and agrees that the covenants set forth in Section 7.1(a) — (c) (the “Restrictive Covenants”) are reasonable and valid in geographical and temporal scope and in all other respects.  TransTex further acknowledges and agrees that a monetary remedy for any breach of the Restrictive Covenants will be inadequate, and will be impracticable and extremely difficult to prove, and further agrees that such a breach would cause Buyer irreparable harm, and that Buyer shall, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies that may be available to Buyer in respect of such breach, be entitled to equitable relief, including temporary or permanent injunctive relief and specific performance (without any requirement to post bond).  The temporal duration of the Restrictive Covenants shall not expire, and shall be tolled during any period in which TransTex is in violation of any of such Restrictive Covenants, and all such

50

Restrictive Covenants shall automatically be extended by the period of TransTex’s violation of any such Restrictive Covenant.

7.3           Severability of Restrictive Covenants.  The Restrictive Covenants constitute a series of separate covenants, one for each of those counties and states in the Restricted Territory.  Except for geographic coverage, each such separate covenant contained in Section 7.1(a) — (c) hereof shall be deemed identical in terms.  If in any judicial proceeding a court shall hold unenforceable any of the separate covenants deemed included herein, then such unenforceable covenant or covenants shall be deemed eliminated from the provisions of this Agreement for the purposes of such proceeding or changed to the extent necessary to permit the remaining separate covenants to be enforced in such proceeding.  If any paragraph, clause, sub-clause or provision is invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not prejudice or in any way affect the validity or enforceability of any other paragraph, clause, sub-clause or provision.  This Agreement and each paragraph, clause, sub-clause and provision hereof shall be read and construed so as to give thereto the full effect thereof subject only to any contrary provision of Law to the extent that when this ARTICLE VII or any paragraph, clause, sub-clause or provision hereof would, but for the provisions of this ARTICLE VII, have been read and construed as being void and ineffective, it shall nevertheless be a valid agreement, covenant, paragraph, clause, sub-clause or provision as the case may be to the full extent to which it is not contrary to any provision at Law.

7.4           Enforceability in Jurisdictions.  Notwithstanding the provisions of  Section 12.11 and Section 12.12, Buyer and TransTex intend to and hereby confer jurisdiction to enforce the Restrictive Covenants upon the Governmental Authorities of any jurisdiction within the geographical scope of the Restrictive Covenants.  If the Governmental Authorities of any one or more of such jurisdictions hold the Restrictive Covenants unenforceable by reason of the breadth of such scope or otherwise, it is the intention of Buyer and TransTex that such determination not bar or in any way affect the right of Buyer to the relief provided above in the Governmental Authorities of any other jurisdiction within the geographical scope of the Restrictive Covenants, as to breaches of the Restrictive Covenants in such other respective jurisdictions, the Restrictive Covenants as they relate to each jurisdiction being, for this purpose, severable into diverse and independent covenants.

55

11.5        Exclusive Remedy.  Subject to ARTICLE VII (Restrictive Covenants) and Section 12.13 (Specific Performance), from and after the Closing Date, the rights of the Buyer Indemnified Parties and the TransTex Indemnified Parties under the provisions of this ARTICLE XI shall constitute the sole and exclusive remedy for money damages for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation of this Agreement or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement.  In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted under Law, any and all rights, claims and causes of action for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement it may have against the other party hereto and their Affiliates and each of their respective Representatives arising under or based upon any Law, except pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this ARTICLE XI.  The Holdback Fund is intended to secure the indemnification obligations of TransTex under Section 11.2 of this Agreement.  Except with respect to claims arising from intentional fraud or intentional or willful breaches of this Agreement and the TransTex Cap Exclusions, and subject to the limitations otherwise set forth in this ARTICLE XI, the rights of Buyer under this ARTICLE XI shall be limited to the Holdback Amount, and the Holdback Amount shall be the exclusive means for Buyer to enforce such rights or to recover for any Losses.  Neither a Buyer Indemnified Party nor a TransTex Indemnified Party shall be entitled to recover any punitive, exemplary, treble or other special damages in each such case that are intended to punish or set an example to other wrongdoers (collectively, “Special Damages”) pursuant to this ARTICLE XI, unless such Special Damages are required to be paid to a third party in connection with the final judicial resolution of a Third Party Claim.  Nothing in this Section 11.5 shall limit any party’s right to seek and obtain any equitable relief to which any Person shall be entitled or to seek any remedy on account of any Person’s fraudulent, criminal or intentional misconduct.

11.6        Third Party Claims and Indemnification Procedures.

(a)           Promptly after the receipt by any Person entitled to indemnification pursuant to this ARTICLE XI (the “Indemnified Party”) of notice of the commencement of any Action made or brought by any Person who is not a party to this Agreement or an Affiliate of a Party to this Agreement or a Representative of the foregoing (such action, a “Third Party Claim”), such Indemnified Party shall, if a claim with respect thereto is to be made against any party or parties obligated to provide indemnification pursuant to this ARTICLE XI (the “Indemnifying Party”), give such Indemnifying Party written notice of such Third Party Claim setting forth (i) the specific representation, warranty, covenant or agreement alleged to have been breached, (ii) the nature and amount of the Third Party Claim asserted, if known, together with sufficient facts known to the Indemnified Party relating thereto and any material written evidence thereof so that the Indemnifying Party may reasonably evaluate such Third Party Claim and (iii) a calculation or good faith estimate, if such can be reasonably calculated, of the aggregate Losses that the Indemnified Party believes have been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party in connection with the Third Party Claim (a “Third Party Claim Notice”); provided, that the failure of the Indemnified Party to provide such notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent that such failure to give notice shall prejudice any defense or claim available to the Indemnifying Party.

(b)           The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to participate in, or by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party, be entitled to assume the defense of any Third Party Claim at the Indemnifying Party’s sole expense and by the Indemnifying Party’s own counsel (which counsel shall be reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party), and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate in good faith in such defense; provided that the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to assume or continue control of the defense of any Third Party Claim if (i) the Third Party Claim relates to or arises in connection with any criminal proceeding, action, indictment, allegation or investigation, (ii) the Third Party Claim seeks an injunction or equitable relief against any Indemnified Party, (iii) the Indemnifying Party has failed to defend or is failing to defend in good faith the Third Party Claim, or (iv) the Indemnifying Party has not acknowledged that such Third Party Claim is subject to indemnification pursuant to this ARTICLE XI.  In

56

the event that the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third Party Claim, subject to Section 11.6(c), it shall have the right to take such action as it deems necessary to avoid, dispute, defend, appeal or make counterclaims pertaining to any such Third Party Claim in the name and on behalf of the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in the defense of any Third Party Claim with counsel selected by it subject to the Indemnifying Party’s right to control the defense thereof. The fees and disbursements of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party, provided, that if in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the Indemnified Party, (A) there are legal defenses available to an Indemnified Party that are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party; or (B) there exists a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party that cannot be waived, the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Indemnified Party in each jurisdiction for which the Indemnified Party reasonably determines counsel is required. If the Indemnifying Party elects not to compromise or defend such Third Party Claim, fails to promptly notify the Indemnified Party in writing of its election to defend as provided in this Agreement, or fails to diligently prosecute the defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party may, subject to Section 11.6(c), pay, compromise, and defend such Third Party Claim and seek indemnification for any and all Losses based upon, arising from or relating to such Third Party Claim.  TransTex and Buyer shall cooperate with each other in all reasonable respects in connection with the defense of any Third Party Claim, including making available (subject to the provisions of Section 6.15)) records relating to such Third Party Claim and furnishing, without expense (other than reimbursement of actual out-of-pocket expenses) to the defending party, management employees of the non-defending party as may be reasonably necessary for the preparation of the defense of such Third Party Claim.

(c)           Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall not enter into settlement of any Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, except as provided in this Section 11.6(c). If a firm offer is made to settle a Third Party Claim solely for money damages and without leading to liability or the creation of a financial or other obligation on the part of the Indemnified Party and provides, in customary form, for the unconditional release of each Indemnified Party from all liabilities and obligations in connection with such Third Party Claim and the Indemnifying Party desires to accept and agree to such offer, the Indemnifying Party shall give written notice to that effect to the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnified Party fails to consent to such firm offer within 10 days after its receipt of such notice, the Indemnified Party may continue to contest or defend such Third Party Claim and in such event, the maximum liability of the Indemnifying Party as to such Third Party Claim shall not exceed the amount of such settlement offer. If the Indemnified Party fails to consent to such firm offer and also fails to assume defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party may settle the Third Party Claim upon the terms set forth in such firm offer to settle such Third Party Claim. If the Indemnified Party has assumed the defense pursuant to Section 11.6(b), it shall not agree to any settlement without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

11.7        Direct Claims and Indemnification Procedures.

(a)           In order to seek indemnification from an Indemnifying Party under this ARTICLE XI for a Loss which does not result from a Third Party Claim (a “Direct Claim”), an Indemnified Party shall deliver prompt written notice of such Direct Claim to the Indemnifying Party (but in any event not later than 30 days after the Indemnified Party becomes aware of such Direct Claim) setting forth (i) the specific representation, warranty, covenant or agreement alleged to have been breached, and (ii) the Claimed Amount, if known, together with sufficient facts known to the Indemnified Party relating thereto and any material written evidence thereof so that the Indemnifying Party may reasonably evaluate such Direct Claim (a “Direct Claim Notice” and together with a Third Party Claim Notice, a “Claim Notice”); provided, that the failure of the Indemnified Party to provide such Claim Notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent that such failure to give notice shall prejudice any defense or claim available

57

to the Indemnifying Party. As used herein, “Claimed Amount” shall mean the amount of any Losses incurred or reasonably expected to be incurred by the Indemnified Party.

(b)           Within 30 days after delivery of a Claim Notice, the Indemnifying Party shall deliver to the Indemnified Party a written response containing the information provided for in this Section 11.7(b) (the “Response”), in which the Indemnifying Party shall either: (i) agree that the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive all of the Claimed Amount (in which case, the Response shall be considered a Final Determination under Section 11.8(a)); (ii) agree that the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive part, but not all of the Claimed Amount (the “Agreed Amount”) (in which case, the Response shall be considered a Final Determination under Section 11.8(a) as to the Agreed Amount); or (iii) dispute that the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive any of the Claimed Amount. The Indemnified Party shall assist the Indemnifying Party’s investigation of the Direct Claim by giving such information and assistance (including access to the Indemnified Party’s premises and personnel and the right to examine and copy any accounts, documents or records) as the Indemnifying Party or any of its professional advisors may reasonably request.  If the Indemnifying Party does not provide a Response within such 30 day period, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have rejected such claim.

(c)           During the 30-day period following the delivery of a Response (or the failure to deliver a timely Response) that reflects a dispute resulting from the Indemnifying Party disputing its liability in a Response for all or part of the Claimed Amount in a Direct Claim  (an “Indemnification Dispute”), the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall use good faith efforts to resolve the Indemnification Dispute.  If the Indemnification Dispute is not resolved within such 30-day period, the parties will resolve such Indemnification Dispute in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.12.

(d)           Upon a reasonable request by the Indemnifying Party, each Indemnified Party seeking indemnification hereunder in respect of any Direct Claim, hereby agrees to consult with the Indemnifying Party and act reasonably to take actions reasonably requested by the Indemnifying Party in order to attempt to reduce the amount of Losses in respect of such Direct Claim. Any costs or expenses associated with taking such actions shall be included as Losses hereunder.

11.8        Payments of Indemnification Claims.

(a)           Subject to the limitations and terms and conditions of this ARTICLE XI, any indemnification payment to a Buyer Indemnified Party pursuant to this ARTICLE XI shall first be satisfied by a release of amounts remaining in the Holdback Account to Buyer within five (5) Business Days after such payment (i) has been agreed to in a writing signed by Buyer and TransTex or (ii) is the subject of a final order or judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction (each, upon full payment of such amounts, a “Final Determination”).  To the extent that the amount of any Losses for which a Buyer Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification exceed the amount remaining in the Holdback Account or arise after the date on which the remaining Holdback Funds have been released in accordance with this ARTICLE XI to the extent not subject to the TransTex Cap or limited by time, a Buyer Indemnified Party may collect such Losses directly from TransTex within five (5) Business Days after the Final Determination of such Losses and shall be effected by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by the Buyer Indemnified Party. For the avoidance of doubt, the Holdback Funds will serve as the initial source, but not the exclusive source, for the satisfaction of any indemnification claim of any Buyer Indemnified Party pursuant to this Agreement. The Parties hereto agree that the accrued interest earned by the Holdback Account shall be added to the corpus of the Holdback Amount and shall be available to fund indemnity claims made by the Buyer Indemnified Parties pursuant to this ARTICLE XI.

(b)           Subject to the limitations and terms and conditions of this ARTICLE XI, any indemnification payment to a TransTex Indemnified Party pursuant to this ARTICLE XI shall be effected by

58

wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by TransTex within five (5) Business Days after a Final Determination.

(c)           The parties hereto agree that should an Indemnifying Party not make full payment of any indemnification obligations within such five (5) Business Day period of a Final Determination, any amount payable shall accrue interest from and including the date of the Final Determination through the date such payment has been made at a rate per annum equal to 10%. Such interest shall be calculated daily on the basis of a 365 day year and the actual number of days elapsed, without compounding.

(d)           Any indemnification payments made pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated as adjustments to the Purchase Price for all Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by applicable Law.

11.9        Materiality Qualifiers.  For purposes of determining the amount of Losses incurred in connection with any indemnification claims made under this ARTICLE XI (and with respect to such Losses, also for determining whether a breach or alleged breach of a representation or warranty has first occurred), the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement (other than Section 4.7) or the Disclosure Schedules shall be deemed to have been made without any qualifications as to materiality, TransTex or Eureka Hunter Material Adverse Effect, specified dollar thresholds or similar qualifications set forth in any such representations and warranties.

11.10      No Duplication.  Any liability for indemnification hereunder shall be determined without duplication of recovery by reason of the state of facts giving rise to such liability constituting a breach of more than one representation, warranty, covenant or agreement.  In this regard, there shall be no duplication of recovery under this ARTICLE XI.

11.11      Release of Holdback Fund.

(a)           Buyer may not distribute or release any amount from the Holdback Account except in accordance with this ARTICLE XI. Within five (5) Business Days following the expiration of the Holdback Period, the remaining Holdback Funds, less the aggregate amount of Losses (or any Good Faith Loss Estimate) included in any pending Claims Notice delivered by a Buyer Indemnifed Party that is not the subject of a Final Determination prior to the expiration of the Holdback Period (such aggregate amount of Losses, collectively, the “Disputed Amounts”), shall be distributed by Buyer to TransTex (or its designee) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account identified in writing by TransTex at least two (2) Business Days prior to the date of such distribution. Following the expiration of the Holdback Period, the Disputed Amounts will be distributed from the Holdback Account by Buyer in accordance with Section 11.11(b).

(b)           Within five (5) Business Days following the Final Determination of each claim for Losses that are included in the Disputed Amounts, the Disputed Amounts for such claim shall be distributed by Buyer from the Holdback Account as follows: (i) in the event that a Disputed Amount exceeds the actual amount of Losses of a Buyer Indemnified Party with respect to such claim, (A) the actual amount of such Losses shall be released from the Holdback Account to Buyer and (B) the amount of such excess shall be distributed by Buyer from the Holdback Account to TransTex (or its designee) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account identified in writing by TransTex at least two (2) Business Days prior to the date of such distribution; and (ii) in the event that the actual amount of Losses of Buyer with respect to such claim is equal to or exceeds the Disputed Amount for such claim and such excess amount is not otherwise subject to any limitation under this ARTICLE XI, (A) the entire Disputed Amount for such claim shall be released from the Holdback Account to Buyer and (B) the amount of such excess, if any, shall be paid to Buyer by TransTex.

59

(c)           If Buyer should not timely release the Holdback Funds to TransTex in accordance with this Section 11.11, any amount payable to TransTex shall accrue interest from and including the required release date through the date such payment has been made at a rate per annum equal to 10%. Such interest shall be calculated daily on the basis of a 365 day year and the actual number of days elapsed, without compounding.

11.12      Effect of Investigation.  The representations, warranties and covenants of the Indemnifying Party, and the Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification with respect thereto, shall not be affected or deemed waived by reason of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Party (including by any of its Representatives) or by reason of the fact that the Indemnified Party or any of its Representatives knew or should have known that any such representation or warranty is, was or might be inaccurate or by reason of the Indemnified Party’s waiver of any condition set forth in ARTICLE VIII or ARTICLE IX as the case may be (except as provided in Section 6.14(b) or Section 6.14(d)).

12.7        Waiver.  No waiver by any party of any of the provisions hereof shall be effective unless explicitly set forth in writing and signed by the party so waiving. No waiver by any party shall operate or be construed as a waiver in respect of any failure, breach or default not expressly identified by such written waiver, whether of a similar or different character, and whether occurring before or after that waiver. No failure to exercise, or delay in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege arising from this Agreement shall operate or be construed as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.

12.8        Binding Effect; Assignment.  Subject to the following sentence, neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned by TransTex without the prior written consent of Buyer or by Buyer without the prior written consent of TransTex, and any purported assignment or other transfer without such consent shall be void and unenforceable.  Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Parties to this Agreement and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

12.14      Severability.  If any term, provision, agreement, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, agreements, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party hereto.  Upon such a determination, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a reasonably acceptable manner so that the transactions contemplated hereby may be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.
