WHEREAS, the Principal Stockholder acknowledges that Buyer,
Merger Sub and the Company are entering into the Merger Agreement in reliance on
the representations, warranties, covenants and other agreements of the Principal

hereof and ending on the Termination Date, not to, and, if applicable, not to
permit any of the Principal Stockholder's Affiliates to, vote or execute any

10. No Waivers. No failure or delay by Buyer or Merger Sub in
exercising any right, power or privilege under this Agreement shall operate as a
waiver of that right, power or privilege. A single or partial exercise of any

and determined in the Chancery or other courts in the State of Delaware, and
Buyer, Merger Sub and the Principal Stockholder hereby irrevocably submit with
regard to any such action or proceeding for itself and in respect to its
property, generally and unconditionally, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the
aforesaid courts
7
and to accept service of process in any manner permitted by such courts. Buyer,
Merger Sub and the Company hereby irrevocably waive, and agree not to assert, by
way of motion, as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any action or
proceeding with respect to this Agreement, (a) any claim that it is not
personally subject to the jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts for any reason
other than the failure to lawfully serve process; (b) that it or its property is
exempt or immune from jurisdiction of any such court or from any legal process
commenced in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to
judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or
otherwise); (c) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, that (i) the
suit, action or proceeding in any such court is brought in an inconvenient
forum, (ii) the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper or (iii)
this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced in or by such
courts; or (d) any right to a trial by jury.
14. Severability of Provisions. If any term or other provision
of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any law
or public policy, all other terms and provisions of this Agreement shall
nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal
substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner
materially adverse to any party. Upon such determination that any term or other
provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, 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 an acceptable manner in order
that the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated as originally
contemplated to the greatest extent possible.
15. Headings and References. Section headings in this
Agreement are included for convenience of reference only and do not constitute a

the context otherwise requires, be used in the singular or the plural, depending
on the reference. The use in this Agreement of the word "include" or

matters, whether or not nonlimiting language (such as "without limitation" or
"but not limited to" or words of similar import) is used with reference thereto,
but rather shall be deemed to refer to all other items or matters that fall
