The Shareholder prior to the Closing shall be a third party beneficiary of this Agreement.
 
8.8     Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and the parties will attempt to agree upon a valid and enforceable provision which shall be a reasonable substitute therefore, and upon so agreeing, shall incorporate such substitute provision in this Agreement. Any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.
 
8.9     Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more 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. This Agreement, once executed by a party, may be delivered to the other parties hereto by facsimile transmission of a copy of this Agreement bearing the signature of the party so delivering this Agreement. In the event any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission, the party using such means of delivery shall cause the manually executed execution page(s) hereof to be physically delivered to the other party within five days of the execution hereof, provided that the failure to so deliver any manually executed execution page shall not affect the validity or enforceability of this Agreement.

Unless the context otherwise requires, all references to articles and sections refer to articles and sections of this Agreement, and all references to schedules are to schedules attached hereto, each of which is made a part hereof for all purposes. The descriptive headings of the several articles and sections of this Agreement are inserted for purposes of reference only, and shall not affect the meaning or construction of any of the provisions hereof.
 
8.11     Entire Agreement. This Agreement, and any schedules and exhibits hereto and other writings referred to in this Agreement or any such exhibit or other writing are part of this Agreement, together they embody the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto in respect of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and together they are referred to as this “Agreement” or the “Agreement.” There are no restrictions, promises, warranties, agreements, covenants or undertakings, other than those expressly set forth or referred to in this Agreement.

8.13     Remedies and Injunctive Relief. It is expressly agreed among the parties hereto that monetary damages would be inadequate to compensate a party hereto for any breach by any other party of its covenants in Article 6 hereof. Accordingly, the parties agree and acknowledge that any such violation or threatened violation shall cause irreparable injury to the other and that, in addition to any other remedies which may be available, such party shall be entitled to injunctive relief against the threatened breach of Article 6 hereof or the continuation of any such breach without the necessity of proving actual damages and may seek to specifically enforce the terms thereof.

8.15     Severability. The provisions of this Agreement will be deemed severable and the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision will not affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions hereof; provided that if any provision of this Agreement, as applied to any party hereto or to any circumstance, is adjudged by an Authority, arbitrator, or mediator not to be enforceable in accordance with its terms, the parties hereto agree that the Authority, arbitrator, or mediator making such determination will have the power to modify the provision in a manner consistent with its objectives such that it is enforceable, and/or to delete specific words or phrases, and in its reduced form, such provision will then be enforceable and will be enforced.
