Shares to SIBE so that SIBE may affix the foregoing legends
thereto.

the event that any one or more of the provisions or portion thereof contained in
this Agreement shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal, or
unenforceable in any respect, the same shall not invalidate or otherwise affect

if the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision or portion thereof had never
been contained herein.

equity, and all such rights and remedies shall be cumulative.

of any party hereto to require the performance of any provisions of this

waiver of any such provision or breach or as a waiver of any other provision or
breach of any other provision of this Agreement. No waiver of any
provision or any breach of any provision of this Agreement shall be valid or
binding on the parties hereto unless made in a writing signed by an authorized
representative of the party against whom the same is sought to be
enforced.
