4.1 ORGANIZATION, GOOD STANDING AND QUALIFICATION. Each of the
Company and each of its Subsidiaries is a corporation, partnership or

and each of its Subsidiaries is duly qualified and is authorized to do
business and is in good standing as a foreign corporation, partnership or
limited liability company, as the case may be, in all jurisdictions in
which the nature of its activities and of its properties (both owned and
leased) makes such qualification necessary, except for those
jurisdictions in which failure to do so has not, or could not reasonably
be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse
effect on the business, assets, liabilities, condition (financial or
otherwise), properties, operations or prospects of the Company and it
Subsidiaries, taken individually and as a whole (a "Material Adverse
Effect").

4.2 SUBSIDIARIES. Each direct and indirect Subsidiary of the
Company, the direct owner of such Subsidiary and its percentage ownership
thereof, is set forth on Schedule 4.2. For the purpose of this
Agreement, a "Subsidiary" of any person or entity means (i) a corporation
or other entity whose shares of stock or other ownership interests having
ordinary voting power (other than stock or other ownership interests

or entities performing similar functions for such person or entity, are
owned, directly or indirectly, by such person or entity or (ii) a
corporation or other entity in which such person or entity owns, directly
or indirectly, more than 50% of the equity interests at such time.

4.3 Capitalization; Voting Rights.

(A) are not subject to any registration rights and

Company of any of its securities. Except as disclosed
on SCHEDULE 4.3, neither the offer, issuance or sale
of any of the Notes or the Warrant, or the issuance
of any of the Note Shares or Warrant Shares, nor the
consummation of any transaction contemplated hereby
will result in a change in the price (other than as
traded under typical market conditions in the
Principal Market) or number of any securities of the
Company outstanding, under anti-dilution or other
similar provisions contained in or affecting any such
securities. For the purpose of this Agreement and
the Related Agreements, "Disclosed Acquisition Common
Stock" shall mean up to 2,467,700 shares of Common
Stock (subject to adjustment for any combination,
subdivision or similar event with respect to the
Common Stock) contemplated to be issued in connection

of such shares of Common Stock at the time of
issuance thereof (calculated on a fully diluted basis

Directors of the Company) is no less than $4.00 per
share of Common Stock and (ii) such shares of Common
Stock are restricted securities that (A) are not
subject to any registration rights and (B) cannot be
publically traded other than by virtue of the
satisfaction of the requirements of Rule 144(k) of
the Exchange Act.

(c) All issued and outstanding shares of the Company's
Common Stock: (i) have been duly authorized and
validly issued and are fully paid and nonassessable;
and (ii) were issued in compliance with all
applicable state and federal laws concerning the

Agreement and the Company's Charter, the Securities
will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable,
and will be free of any liens or encumbrances;
provided, however, that the Securities may be subject
to restrictions on transfer under state and/or
federal securities laws as set forth herein or as
otherwise required by such laws at the time a

any mortgage, pledge, lien, encumbrance or charge upon any of the
properties or assets of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, except in
favor of Purchaser, or the suspension, revocation, impairment, forfeiture

agreement or any other agreement relating to the right of any such
individual to be employed by, or to contract with, the Company or any of
its Subsidiaries because of the nature of the business to be conducted by
the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; and to the Company's knowledge
the continued employment by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of its
present employees, and the performance of the Company's and its

in any such violation. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries
is aware that any of its employees is obligated under any contract
(including licenses, covenants or commitments of any nature) or other
agreement, or subject to any judgment, decree or order of any court or
administrative agency, that would interfere with their duties to the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries. Neither the Company nor any of its
Subsidiaries has received any notice alleging that any such violation has

Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries has all material franchises,

be reasonable.

4.23 NO INTEGRATED OFFERING. Neither the Company, nor any of its
Subsidiaries or affiliates, nor any person acting on its or their behalf,
has directly or indirectly made any offers or sales of any security or
solicited any offers to buy any security under circumstances that would
cause the offering of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement or any of

Company from selling the Securities pursuant to Rule 506 under the

steps that would cause the offering of the Securities to be integrated

agrees to provide the Purchaser any additional information regarding the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries that the Purchaser deems necessary or
convenient to ensure compliance with all applicable laws concerning money

Purchaser may undertake appropriate actions to ensure compliance with
applicable law or regulation, including but not limited to segregation
and/or redemption of the Purchaser's investment in the Company. The
Company further understands that the Purchaser may release confidential
information about the Company and its Subsidiaries and, if applicable,

further confirms that it has had an opportunity to ask questions and
receive answers from the Company regarding the Company's and its
Subsidiaries' business, management and financial affairs and the terms

the commencement of proceedings to foreclose any lien which may have
attached as security therefor.

6.8 INSURANCE. Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries will keep
its assets which are of an insurable character insured by financially
sound and reputable insurers against loss or damage by fire, explosion
and other risks customarily insured against by companies in similar
business similarly situated as the Company and its Subsidiaries; and the
Company and its Subsidiaries will maintain, with financially sound and
reputable insurers, insurance against other hazards and risks and
liability to persons and property to the extent and in the manner which
the Company reasonably believes is customary for companies in similar
business similarly situated as the Company and its Subsidiaries and to
the extent available on commercially reasonable terms. The Company, and
each of its Subsidiaries will jointly and severally bear the full risk of
loss from any loss of any nature whatsoever with respect to the assets
pledged to the Purchaser as security for its obligations hereunder and
under the Related Agreements. At the Company's and each of its
Subsidiaries' joint and several cost and expense in amounts and with
carriers reasonably acceptable to Purchaser, the Company and each of its
Subsidiaries shall (i) keep all its insurable properties and properties
in which it has an interest insured against the hazards of fire, flood,
sprinkler leakage, those hazards covered by extended coverage insurance
and such other hazards, and for such amounts, as is customary in the case
of companies engaged in businesses similar to the Company's or the
respective Subsidiary's including business interruption insurance; (ii)
maintain employee practice liability insurance in such amounts as is
customary in the case of companies engaged in businesses similar to the
Company's or the respective Subsidiary's insuring against larceny,
embezzlement or other criminal misappropriation of insured's officers and
employees who may either singly or jointly with others at any time have
access to the assets or funds of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
either directly or through governmental authority to draw upon such funds
or to direct generally the disposition of such assets; (iii) maintain
public and product liability insurance against claims for personal
injury, death or property damage suffered by others; (iv) maintain all
such worker's compensation or similar insurance as may be required under
the laws of any state or jurisdiction in which the Company or the
respective Subsidiary is engaged in business; and (v) on the Closing Date
and upon the request of Purchaser (which request shall not be made more
than once per fiscal quarter of the Company unless an Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing, furnish Purchaser with (x) copies of all
policies and evidence of the maintenance of such policies at least thirty
(30) days before any expiration date, (y) excepting the Company's
workers' compensation policy, endorsements to such policies naming
Purchaser as "co-insured" or "additional insured" and appropriate loss
payable endorsements in form and substance satisfactory to Purchaser,
naming Purchaser as loss payee, and (z) evidence that as to Purchaser the
insurance coverage shall not be impaired or invalidated by any act or
neglect of the Company or any Subsidiary and the insurer will provide
Purchaser with at least thirty (30) days notice prior to cancellation.
The Company and each Subsidiary shall instruct the insurance carriers
that in the event of any loss thereunder, the carriers shall make payment
for such loss to the Company and/or the Subsidiary and Purchaser jointly.
In the event that as of the date of receipt of each loss recovery upon
any such insurance, the Purchaser has not declared an Event of Default
(as defined in the Note or any other event of default with respect to
this Agreement or any of the Related Agreements (and, in either case,
such Event of Default or event of default, as the case may be, in
continuing), then the Company and/or such Subsidiary shall be permitted
to direct the application of such loss recovery proceeds toward
investment in property, plant and equipment that would comprise

"Collateral" secured by Purchaser's security interest pursuant to its
security agreements, with any surplus funds to (i) with respect to the
first $50,000 of such surplus funds received by the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries in connection with each such loss recovery, be paid to the
Company and (ii) with respect to all other surplus funds received by the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with each such loss
recovery, applied toward payment of the obligations of the Company to
Purchaser. In the event that Purchaser has properly declared an Event of
Default (as defined in the Note) or any other event of default with
respect to this Agreement or any of the Related Agreements (and, in
either case, such Event of Default or event of default, as the case may
be, in continuing), then all loss recoveries received by Purchaser upon
any such insurance thereafter may be applied to the obligations of the
Company hereunder and under the Related Agreements, in such order as the
Purchaser may determine. Any surplus (following satisfaction of all
Company obligations to Purchaser) shall be paid by Purchaser to the
Company or applied as may be otherwise required by law. Any deficiency
thereon shall be paid by the Company or the Subsidiary, as applicable, to
Purchaser, on demand.

6.9 INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY. Each of the Company and each of its
Subsidiaries shall maintain in full force and effect its existence,
rights and franchises and all licenses and other rights to use
Intellectual Property owned or possessed by it and reasonably deemed to
be necessary to the conduct of its business.

6.10 PROPERTIES. Each of the Company and each of its Subsidiaries
will keep its properties in good repair, working order and condition,
reasonable wear and tear excepted, and from time to time make all needful
and proper repairs, renewals, replacements, additions and improvements
thereto; and each of the Company and each of its Subsidiaries will at all
times comply with each provision of all leases to which it is a party or
under which it occupies property if the breach of such provision could,
either individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect.

6.11 CONFIDENTIALITY. The Company agrees that it will not disclose,
and will not include in any public announcement, the name of the
Purchaser, unless expressly agreed to by the Purchaser or unless and
until such disclosure is required by law or applicable regulation, and
then only to the extent of such requirement. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Company may disclose Purchaser's identity and the terms of
this Agreement to its current and prospective debt and equity financing
sources.

6.12 REQUIRED APPROVALS. For so long as twenty-five percent (25%)
of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes is outstanding, the
Company, without the prior written consent of the Purchaser, shall not,

Company so long as (i) in connection with any such
merger involving the Company, the Company is the
surviving entity, (ii) in connection with any such
merger involving one Subsidiary of the Company
merging into another Subsidiary of the Company, the
surviving Subsidiary enters into, or remains a party
to, the Subsidiary Guaranty and (iii) in connection
with any such merger, the Purchaser's security
interest with respect to the assets involved in any
such merger remains unaffected in all material
respects;

(c) become subject to (including, without limitation, by
way of amendment to or modification of) any agreement
or instrument which by its terms would (under any
circumstances) restrict the Company's or any of its
Subsidiaries right to perform the provisions of this

forth on SCHEDULE 6.12(e) attached hereto and made a
part hereof and any refinancings or replacements
thereof on terms (taken as a whole) no less favorable

Purchaser) than the indebtedness being refinanced or
replaced, and (z) any debt incurred in connection
with the purchase of assets in the ordinary course of
business, or any refinancings or replacements thereof
on terms (taken as a whole) no less favorable to the
Company (as reasonably determined by the Purchaser)

extent that such auditors require such cancellation);
(iii) assume, guarantee, endorse or otherwise become
directly or contingently liable in connection with

set forth in clause (iii) of the proviso to Section

instruments by the Company for deposit or collection
or similar transactions in the ordinary course of
business or guarantees of indebtedness otherwise
permitted to be outstanding pursuant to this clause
(e); and

(f) create or acquire any Subsidiary after the date

Subsidiary of the Company and (ii) such

Subsidiary becomes party to the Master Security
Agreement, the Stock Pledge Agreement and the
Subsidiary Guaranty (either by executing a
counterpart thereof or an assumption or joinder
agreement in respect thereof) and, to the extent
required by the Purchaser, satisfies each condition
of this Agreement and the Related Agreements as if

Date;

(g) consummate the Disclosed Acquisitions; provided that
the Disclosed Acquisitions may be consummated so long

terms of the Master Security Agreement, (ii) in the
event that equity interests of any person or entity
are acquired in connection with any such Disclosed
Acquisition, the Company and/or the relevant

of $2,000,000.

6.13 REISSUANCE OF SECURITIES. The Company agrees to reissue
certificates representing the Securities without the legends set forth in
Section 5.8 above at such time as:

(a) the holder thereof is permitted to dispose of such
Securities pursuant to Rule 144(k) under the
Securities Act; or

(b) upon resale subject to an effective registration
statement after such Securities are registered under
the Securities Act.

The Company agrees to cooperate with the Purchaser in connection with all
resales pursuant to Rule 144(d) and Rule 144(k) and provide legal
opinions necessary to allow such resales provided the Company and its
counsel receive reasonably requested representations from the selling
Purchaser and broker, if any.

6.14 OPINION. On the Closing Date, the Company will deliver to the
Purchaser an opinion acceptable to the Purchaser from the Company's
external legal counsel. The Company will provide, at the Company's
expense, such other legal opinions in the future as are deemed reasonably
necessary by the Purchaser (and acceptable to the Purchaser) in
connection with the conversion of the Notes and exercise of the Warrant.

6.15 MARGIN STOCK. The Company will not permit any of the proceeds
of the Notes or the Warrant to be used directly or indirectly to
"purchase" or "carry" "margin stock" or to repay indebtedness incurred to
"purchase" or "carry" "margin stock" within the respective meanings of
each of the quoted terms under Regulation U of the Board of Governors of
the Federal Reserve System as now and from time to time hereafter in
effect.

6.16 RESTRICTED CASH DISCLOSURE. The Company agrees that, in
connection with its filing of its 8-K Report with the SEC concerning the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Related Agreements
(such report, the "Laurus Transaction 8-K") in a timely manner after the
date hereof, it will disclose in such Laurus Transaction 8-K the amount
of the proceeds of the Term Note B issued to the Purchaser that has been
placed in a restricted cash account and is subject to the terms and
conditions of this Agreement and the Related Agreements. Furthermore,
the Company agrees to disclose in all public filings required by the
Commission (where appropriate) following the filing of the Laurus
Transaction 8-K, the existence of the restricted cash referred to in the
immediately preceding sentence, together with the amount thereof.

6.17 FINANCING RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL. (a) For so long as
twenty-five (25%) percent of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes
is outstanding, the Company hereby grants to the Purchaser a right of
first refusal to provide any Additional Financing (as defined below) to
be issued by the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries, subject to the
following terms and conditions. Prior to the incurrence of additional
indebtedness (other than trade indebtedness, purchase money indebtedness
and capitalized lease obligations) or the issuance of any additional
equity interests (an "Additional Financing"), in each case, after the
date hereof, the Company and/or any Subsidiary of the Company, as the
case may be, shall notify the Purchaser of its intention to enter into
such Additional Financing, together with the terms that such proposed
Additional Financing will be subject to. In connection therewith, the
Company and/or the applicable Subsidiary thereof shall submit a fully
executed term sheet (a "Proposed Term Sheet") to the Purchaser setting
forth the terms, conditions and pricing of any such Additional Financing
(such financing to be negotiated on "arm's length" terms and the terms
thereof to be negotiated in good faith) proposed to be entered into by
the Company and/or such Subsidiary. The Purchaser shall have the right,
but not the obligation, to agree to provide such Additional Financing to
the Company and/or such Subsidiary on terms no less favorable than those
outlined in Proposed Term Sheet within ten business days of receipt of
any such Proposed Term Sheet. If the provisions of the Purchaser's term
sheet are at least as favorable to the Company or such Subsidiary, as the
case may be, as the provisions of the Proposed Term Sheet, the Company
and/or such Subsidiary shall enter into the Additional Financing outlined
in the Purchaser's term sheet.

(b) For so long as twenty-five (25%) percent of the
aggregate principal amount of the Notes is outstanding, the Company will
not, and will not permit its Subsidiaries to, agree, directly or
indirectly, to any restriction with any person or entity which limits the
ability of the Purchaser to consummate an Additional Financing with the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

7. COVENANTS OF THE PURCHASER. The Purchaser covenants and agrees with
the Company as follows:

7.1 CONFIDENTIALITY. The Purchaser agrees that it will not
disclose, and will not include in any public announcement, the name of
the Company, unless expressly agreed to by the Company or unless and
until such disclosure is required by law or applicable regulation, and
then only to the extent of such requirement.

7.2 NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION. The Purchaser agrees not to effect any
sales in the shares of the Company's Common Stock while in possession of
material, non-public information regarding the Company if such sales
would violate applicable securities law.

8. COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY AND PURCHASER REGARDING INDEMNIFICATION.

8.1 COMPANY INDEMNIFICATION. The Company agrees to indemnify, hold
harmless, reimburse and defend the Purchaser, each of the Purchaser's
officers, directors, agents, affiliates, control persons, and principal
shareholders, against any claim, cost, expense, liability, obligation,
loss or damage (including reasonable legal fees) of any nature, incurred
by or imposed upon the Purchaser which results, arises out of or is based
upon: (i) any misrepresentation by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
or breach of any warranty by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in
this Agreement, any other Related Agreement or in any exhibits or
schedules attached hereto or thereto; or (ii) any breach or default in
performance by Company or any of its Subsidiaries of any covenant or
undertaking to be performed by Company or any of its Subsidiaries
hereunder, under any other Related Agreement or any other agreement
entered into by the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries and Purchaser
relating hereto or thereto.

8.2 PURCHASER'S INDEMNIFICATION. Purchaser agrees to indemnify,
hold harmless, reimburse and defend the Company and each of the Company's
officers, directors, agents, affiliates, control persons and principal
shareholders, at all times against any claim, cost, expense, liability,
obligation, loss or damage (including reasonable legal fees) of any
nature, incurred by or imposed upon the Company which results, arises out
of or is based upon: (i) any misrepresentation by Purchaser or breach of
any warranty by Purchaser in this Agreement or in any exhibits or
schedules attached hereto or any Related Agreement; or (ii) any breach or
default in performance by Purchaser of any covenant or undertaking to be
performed by Purchaser hereunder, or any other agreement entered into by
the Company and Purchaser relating hereto.

9. CONVERSION OF CONVERTIBLE NOTES.

9.1 MECHANICS OF CONVERSION.

(a) Provided the Purchaser has notified the Company of
the Purchaser's intention to sell the Note Shares and
the Note Shares are included in an effective
registration statement or are otherwise exempt from
registration when sold: (i) upon the conversion of
the Notes or part thereof, the Company shall, at its
own cost and expense, take all necessary action
(including the issuance of an opinion of counsel
reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser following a
request by the Purchaser) to assure that the
Company's transfer agent shall issue shares of the
Company's Common Stock in the name of the Purchaser
(or its nominee) or such other persons as designated
by the Purchaser in accordance with Section 9.1(b)
hereof

and in such denominations to be specified
representing the number of Note Shares issuable upon
such conversion; and (ii) the Company warrants that
no instructions other than these instructions have
been or will be given to the transfer agent of the
Company's Common Stock and that after the
Effectiveness Date (as defined in the Registration
Rights Agreement) the Note Shares issued will be
freely transferable subject to the prospectus
delivery requirements of the Securities Act and the
provisions of this Agreement, and will not contain a
legend restricting the resale or transferability of
the Note Shares.

(b) Purchaser will give notice of its decision to
exercise its right to convert the Notes or part
thereof by telecopying or otherwise delivering an
executed and completed notice of the number of shares
to be converted to the Company (the "Notice of
Conversion"). The Purchaser will not be required to
surrender the Notes until the Purchaser receives a
credit to the account of the Purchaser's prime broker
through the DWAC system (as defined below),
representing the Note Shares or until the Notes have
been fully satisfied. Each date on which a Notice of
Conversion is telecopied or delivered to the Company
in accordance with the provisions hereof shall be
deemed a "Conversion Date." Pursuant to the terms of
the Notice of Conversion, the Company will issue
instructions to the transfer agent accompanied by an
opinion of counsel within one (1) business day of the
date of the delivery to the Company of the Notice of
Conversion and shall cause the transfer agent to
transmit the certificates representing the Conversion
Shares to the Holder by crediting the account of the
Purchaser's prime broker with the Depository Trust
Company ("DTC") through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent
Commission ("DWAC") system within three (3) business
days after receipt by the Company of the Notice of
Conversion (the "Delivery Date").

(c) The Company understands that a delay in the delivery
of the Note Shares in the form required pursuant to
Section 9 hereof beyond the Delivery Date could
result in economic loss to the Purchaser. In the
event that the Company fails to direct its transfer
agent to deliver the Note Shares to the Purchaser via
the DWAC system within the time frame set forth in
Section 9.1(b) above and the Note Shares are not
delivered to the Purchaser by the Delivery Date, as
compensation to the Purchaser for such loss, the
Company agrees to pay late payments to the Purchaser
for late issuance of the Note Shares in the form
required pursuant to Section 9 hereof upon conversion
of the Notes in the amount equal to the greater of:
(i) $500 per business day after the Delivery Date; or
(ii) the Purchaser's actual damages from such delayed
delivery. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company
will not owe the Purchaser any late payments if the
delay in the delivery of the Note Shares beyond the
Delivery Date is solely out of the control of the
Company and the Company is actively trying to cure
the cause of the delay. The Company shall pay any
payments incurred under this Section in immediately
available funds upon demand and, in the case of
actual

damages, accompanied by reasonable documentation of
the amount of such damages. Such documentation shall
show the number of shares of Common Stock the
Purchaser is forced to purchase (in an open market
transaction) which the Purchaser anticipated
receiving upon such conversion, and shall be
calculated as the amount by which (A) the Purchaser's
total purchase price (including customary brokerage
commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock
so purchased exceeds (B) the aggregate principal
and/or interest amount of the Notes, for which such
Conversion Notice was not timely honored.

Nothing contained herein or in any document referred to herein or
delivered in connection herewith shall be deemed to establish or require
the payment of a rate of interest or other charges in excess of the
maximum permitted by applicable law. In the event that the rate of
interest or dividends required to be paid or other charges hereunder
exceed the maximum amount permitted by such law, any payments in excess
of such maximum shall be credited against amounts owed by the Company to
a Purchaser and thus refunded to the Company. Furthermore, nothing
contained in this Section 9 shall limit in any respect the terms of any
of the Related Agreements.

10. REGISTRATION RIGHTS.

10.1 REGISTRATION RIGHTS GRANTED. The Company hereby grants
registration rights to the Purchaser pursuant to a Registration Rights
Agreement dated as of even date herewith between the Company and the
Purchaser.

10.2 OFFERING RESTRICTIONS. Except as previously disclosed in the
SEC Reports or in the Exchange Act Filings, or stock or stock options
granted to employees or directors of the Company (these exceptions
hereinafter referred to as the "Excepted Issuances"), neither the Company
nor any of its Subsidiaries will issue any securities with a continuously
variable/floating conversion feature which are or could be (by conversion
or registration) free-trading securities (i.e. common stock subject to a
registration statement) prior to the full repayment or conversion of the
Notes (together with all accrued and unpaid interest and fees related
thereto) (the "Exclusion Period").

11.2 SURVIVAL. The representations, warranties, covenants and
agreements made herein shall survive any investigation made by the
Purchaser and the closing of the transactions contemplated hereby to the
extent provided therein. All statements as to factual matters contained

Company pursuant hereto in connection with the transactions contemplated
hereby shall be deemed to be representations and warranties by the
Company hereunder solely as of the date of such certificate or
instrument.

11.3 SUCCESSORS. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the
provisions hereof shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the

be a holder of the Securities from time to time, other than the holders
of Common Stock which has been sold by the Purchaser pursuant to Rule 144
or an effective registration statement. Purchaser may not assign its
rights hereunder to a competitor of the Company. Furthermore, so long
as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Purchaser will
not assign any of its rights hereunder to any person or entity other than
to an affiliate of the Purchaser without the consent of the Company
(which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld).

11.4 ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement, the Related Agreements, the
exhibits and schedules hereto and thereto and the other documents
delivered pursuant hereto constitute the full and entire understanding

exercise any right, power or remedy accruing to any party, upon any
breach, default or noncompliance by another party under this Agreement or
the Related Agreements, shall impair any such right, power or remedy, nor
shall it be construed to be a waiver of any such breach, default or
noncompliance, or any acquiescence therein, or of or in any similar
breach, default or noncompliance thereafter occurring. All remedies,
either under this Agreement or the Related Agreements, by law or
otherwise afforded to any party, shall be cumulative and not alternative.
