Section 8.5        No Benefit to Others.  The representations, warranties, covenants, and agreements contained in this Agreement are for the sole benefit of the parties hereto, and their heirs, executors, administrators, legal representatives, successors, and assigns and they shall not be construed as conferring any rights on any other persons, or limiting any rights of any party hereto against any other person or entity.
 
Section 8.6        Headings, Gender, and Person.  All section headings contained in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only, do not form a part of this Agreement, and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.  Words used herein, regardless of the number and gender specifically used, shall be deemed and construed to include any other number, singular or plural, and any other gender, masculine, feminine, or neuter, as the context requires.  Any reference to a “person” herein shall include an individual, firm, corporation, partnership, trust, governmental authority or body, association, unincorporated organization or any other entity.
 
Section 8.7        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 each counterpart has been signed by each party and delivered to the other party hereto.
 
Section 8.8        Integration of Agreement.  This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements, oral and written, between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof.  Neither this Agreement, nor any provision hereof, may be changed, waived, discharged, supplemented, or terminated orally, but only by an agreement in writing signed by the party against which the enforcement of such change, waiver, discharge, or termination is sought.
 
Section 8.9        Governing Law.  This Agreement shall be construed under the laws of the State of Georgia, without giving effect to its conflict of laws.  The parties agree that any appropriate state court sitting in Fulton County, Georgia or any Federal Court sitting in the Northern District of Georgia (Atlanta Division) (collectively, the “Permitted Courts”), shall have exclusive jurisdiction of any case or controversy arising under or in connection with this Agreement and shall be a proper forum in which to adjudicate such case or controversy, and each party irrevocably: (a) consents to the jurisdiction of the Permitted Courts in such actions, (b) agrees not to plead or claim that such litigation brought in the Permitted Courts has been brought in an inconvenient forum, and (c) waives the right to object, with respect to such suit, action, or proceeding, that such court does not have jurisdiction over such party.  In any suit, arbitration, mediation, or other proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Agreement or to interpret any provision of this Agreement, the prevailing party will be entitled to recover its costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, and all costs and fees incurred on appeal or in a bankruptcy or similar action.
 
Section 8.10     Severability.  Whenever possible, each provision hereof shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but in case any one or more of the provisions contained herein shall, for any reason, be held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability shall not affect any other provisions of this Agreement, and this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provision or provisions had never been contained herein unless the deletion of such provision or provisions would result in such a material change as to cause completion of the transactions contemplated hereby to be unreasonable.  The court in its discretion may substitute for the deleted provision an enforceable provision which reasonably approximates the excluded provision.
