(D)  Governing Law; Disputes.   The Parties agree that this Agreement shall in all respects be construed, governed, applied and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of New York and be deemed to be an agreement entered into in the State of New York and made pursuant to the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of law.  The Parties agree that they shall be deemed to have agreed to binding arbitration with respect to the entire subject matter of any and all disputes relating to or arising under this Agreement including, but not limited to, the specific matters or disputes as to which arbitration has been expressly provided for by other provisions of this Agreement and that any such arbitration shall be commenced exclusively in New York, New York.  Any such arbitration shall be by a panel of three arbitrators and (x) pursuant to the commercial rules then existing of the American Arbitration Association in the State of New York, County of New York, if commenced by the Company, and (y) pursuant to the commercial rules then existing of the American Arbitration Association in the State of Texas, if commenced by the Consultant.  In all arbitrations, judgment upon the arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.  The Parties specifically and exclusively designate the courts in the City of New York, State of New York.  If the arbitration was commenced by the Company, the Parties hereby consent to and submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York in any action or proceeding and submit to personal jurisdiction over each of them by such courts with respect to the confirmation and entry of judgment of any arbitration award.  If the arbitration was commenced by the Consultant, the Parties hereby consent to and submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Texas in any action or proceeding and submit to personal jurisdiction over each of them by such courts with respect to the confirmation and entry of judgment of any arbitration award.  The Parties hereby waive personal service of any and all process and specifically consent that in any such action or proceeding brought in the courts of the State of New York with respect to an arbitration commenced by the Company, or the State of Texas with respect to an arbitration commenced by the Consultant, any service of process may be effectuated upon any of them by certified mail, return receipt requested, in accordance with Paragraph “(C)” of this Article “11” of this Agreement.  Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law.

 
12

 

The Parties agree, further, that the prevailing party in any such arbitration as determined by the arbitrators shall be entitled to such costs and attorney's fees, if any, in connection with such arbitration as may be awarded by the arbitrators.  In connection with the arbitrators’ determination for the purpose of which party, if any, is the prevailing party, they shall take into account all of the factors and circumstances including, without limitation, the relief sought, and by whom, and the relief, if any, awarded, and to whom.  In addition, and notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, a party shall not be deemed to be the prevailing party in a claim seeking monetary damages, unless the amount of the arbitration award exceeds the amount offered in a legally binding writing by the other party by fifteen percent (15%) or more.  For example, if the party initiating arbitration (“A”) seeks an award of $100,000 plus costs and expenses, the other party (“B”) has offered A $50,000 in a legally binding written offer prior to the commencement of the arbitration proceeding, and the arbitration panel awards any amount less than $57,500 to A, the panel should determine that B has “prevailed”.

The arbitration panel shall have no power to award non-monetary or equitable relief of any sort.  It shall also have no power to award (i) damages inconsistent with any applicable agreement between the parties or (ii) punitive damages or any other damages not measured by the prevailing party’s actual damages; and the parties expressly waive their right to obtain such damages in arbitration or in any other forum.  In no event, even if any other portion of these provisions is held invalid or unenforceable, shall the arbitration panel have power to make an award or impose a remedy which could not be made or imposed by a court deciding the matter in the same jurisdiction.

 
13

 

Discovery shall be permitted in connection with the arbitration only to the extent, if any, expressly authorized by the arbitration panel upon a showing of substantial need by the party seeking discovery.

All aspects of the arbitration shall be treated as confidential.  The Parties and the arbitration panel may disclose the existence, content or results of the arbitration only as provided in the rules of the American Arbitration Association in New York, New York.

(E)     Expenses.  Each party to this Agreement shall bear and pay its own costs and expenses incurred in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the transactions set forth in this Agreement.

(F)     Entire Agreement.  This Agreement and all documents and instruments referred to herein (i) constitute the entire agreement and supersede all prior and contemporaneous agreements and understandings, excluding any agreements which are referred to herein and made a part hereof, both written and oral, among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and (ii) are not intended to confer upon any person other than the parties hereto any rights or remedies hereunder.  Each party to this Agreement agrees that, except for the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement, neither party makes any other representations or warranties, and each hereby disclaims any other representations and warranties made by itself or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, financial and legal advisors or other representatives, with respect to the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, notwithstanding the delivery or disclosure of any documentation or other information with respect to any one or more of the foregoing.

 
14

 

(G)     Confidentiality.  The Parties agree that the terms of this Agreement are confidential and they shall not make public disclosure of the terms of this Agreement, except: (i) as may be required by law, (ii) in connection with litigation or other legal proceeding against a party, (iii) by judicial or other compulsory process, (iv) by any regulatory agency, or (v) as may be required in connection with the Company’s parent company, UV Flu Technologies, Inc. (“UV”) obligations under federal securities laws and pursuant to Exchange or listing requirements, including, but not limited to, UV’s disclosure obligations as a listed company on OTC Markets.  If either party intends to make a disclosure of the terms of this Agreement as required by law, by judicial or other compulsory process, by any regulatory agency, or as may be required in connection with UV’s obligations under federal securities laws, such party shall notify the other party, if feasible, in advance of any such disclosure.    The Parties agree that the terms of this Paragraph “G” of this Article “11” of this Agreement regarding confidentiality are not material to this Agreement and any breach of this paragraph shall not be considered a material breach of this Agreement.  In the event of such a breach of this Paragraph “G” of this Article “11” of this Agreement, the non-breaching party shall only be entitled to injunctive relief and/or monetary damages for actual harms caused by the breach.

H.           No Assignment. Consultant hereby agrees that Consultant’s rights under this Agreement shall not be transferred or assigned to anyone without the prior written consent of the Company.

 
15

 

I.           Further Assurances.  The Parties agree to execute any and all such other further instruments and documents, and to take any and all such further actions which are reasonably required to effectuate this Agreement and the intents and purposes hereof.

J.           Non-Waiver.  Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no waiver of any covenant, condition, or provision of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been made unless expressly in writing and signed by the party against whom such waiver is charged; and (i) the failure of any party to insist in any one or more cases upon the performance of any of the provisions, covenants or conditions of this Agreement or to exercise any option herein contained shall not be construed as a waiver or relinquishment for the future of any such provisions, covenants or conditions, (ii) the acceptance of performance of anything required by this Agreement to be performed with knowledge of the breach or failure of a covenant, condition or provision hereof shall not be deemed a waiver of such breach or failure and (iii) no waiver by any party of one breach by another party shall be construed as a waiver of any other or subsequent breach.

K.          Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

L.          Facsimile Signatures.  Any signature which is delivered via facsimile shall be deemed to be an original and have the same force and effect as if such facsimile signature were the original thereof.

 
16

 

M.         Binding upon Execution and Delivery. No party to this Agreement shall be bound hereby until fully executed counterparts to this Agreement have been executed by, and delivered to, each party, or their respective attorneys, by all other parties or their respective attorneys.

N.         Construction.  Each of the parties hereto hereby further acknowledges and agrees that (i) each has been advised by counsel during the course of negotiations and (ii) each counsel has had significant input in the development of this Agreement and (iii) this Agreement shall not, therefore, be construed more strictly against any party responsible for its drafting regardless of any presumption or rule requiring construction against the party whose attorney drafted this Agreement.

O.         Modifications.  This Agreement may not be changed, modified, extended, terminated or discharged orally, except by a written agreement specifically referring to this Agreement which is signed by all of the parties to this Agreement.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties to this Agreement have set their hands and seals or caused these presents to be signed of the day and year first above written.

D.           Governing Law, Disputes.     The Parties agree that this Agreement shall in all respects be construed, governed, applied and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of New York and be deemed to be an agreement entered into in the State of New York and made pursuant to the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of law.  The Parties agree that they shall be deemed to have agreed to binding arbitration with respect to the entire subject matter of any and all disputes relating to or arising under this Agreement including, but not limited to, the specific matters or disputes as to which arbitration has been expressly provided for by other provisions of this Agreement and that any such arbitration shall be commenced exclusively in New York, New York.  Any such arbitration shall be by a panel of three arbitrators and (x) pursuant to the commercial rules then existing of the American Arbitration Association in the State of New York, County of New York, if commenced by the Guarantor or the Company and (y) pursuant to the commercial rules then existing of the American Arbitration Association in the State of Texas, if commenced by the Consultant.  In all arbitrations, judgment upon the arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.  The Parties specifically and exclusively designate the courts in the City of New York, State of New York as properly having jurisdiction for any proceeding to confirm and enter judgment upon any such arbitration award.  If the arbitration was commenced by the Guarantor or the Company, the Parties hereby consent to and submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York in any action or proceeding and submit to personal jurisdiction over each of them by such courts with respect to the confirmation and entry of judgment of any arbitration award.  If the arbitration was commenced by the Consultant the Parties hereby consent to and submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Texas in any action or proceeding and submit to personal jurisdiction over each of them by such courts with respect to the confirmation and entry of judgment of any arbitration award.  The Parties hereby waive personal service of any and all process and specifically consent that in any such action or proceeding brought in the courts of the State of New York with respect to an arbitration commenced by the Guarantor or the Company, or the State of Texas with respect to an arbitration commenced by the Consultant, any service of process may be effectuated upon any of them by certified mail, return receipt requested, in accordance with Paragraph “(C)” of this Article “9” of this Agreement.  Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law.

 
22

 

The Parties agree, further, that the prevailing party in any such arbitration as determined by the arbitrators shall be entitled to such costs and attorney's fees, if any, in connection with such arbitration as may be awarded by the arbitrators.  In connection with the arbitrators’ determination for the purpose of which party, if any, is the prevailing party, they shall take into account all of the factors and circumstances including, without limitation, the relief sought, and by whom, and the relief, if any, awarded, and to whom.  In addition, and notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, a party shall not be deemed to be the prevailing party in a claim seeking monetary damages, unless the amount of the arbitration award exceeds the amount offered in a legally binding writing by the other party by fifteen percent (15%) or more.  For example, if the party initiating arbitration (“A”) seeks an award of $100,000 plus costs and expenses, the other party (“B”) has offered A $50,000 in a legally binding written offer prior to the commencement of the arbitration proceeding, and the arbitration panel awards any amount less than $57,500 to A, the panel should determine that B has “prevailed”.

 
23

 

The arbitration panel shall have no power to award non-monetary or equitable relief of any sort.  It shall also have no power to award (i) damages inconsistent with any applicable agreement between the parties or (ii) punitive damages or any other damages not measured by the prevailing party’s actual damages; and the parties expressly waive their right to obtain such damages in arbitration or in any other forum.  In no event, even if any other portion of these provisions is held invalid or unenforceable, shall the arbitration panel have power to make an award or impose a remedy which could not be made or imposed by a court deciding the matter in the same jurisdiction.

Discovery shall be permitted in connection with the arbitration only to the extent, if any, expressly authorized by the arbitration panel upon a showing of substantial need by the party seeking discovery.

All aspects of the arbitration shall be treated as confidential.  The Parties and the arbitration panel may disclose the existence, content or results of the arbitration only as provided in the rules of the American Arbitration Association in New York, New York if an arbitration is commenced by the Guarantor or the Company.  Before making any such disclosure, a party shall give written notice to all other parties and shall afford such parties a reasonable opportunity to protect their interest.
