6. MISCELLANEOUS.

6.4 Injunctive Relief. Each of the Axis Entities acknowledges and agrees that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Investor and that the remedy or remedies at law for any such breach will be inadequate and agrees, in the event of any such breach, in addition to all other available remedies, the Investor shall be entitled to an injunction restraining any breach and requiring immediate and specific performance of such obligations without the necessity of showing economic loss or the posting of any bond.

6.5 Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. (a) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed under the laws of the State of New York applicable to contracts made and to be performed entirely within the State of New York.

Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof.

(b) EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY DISPUTE OR CONTROVERSY THAT MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES AND, THEREFORE, EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, OR THE BREACH, TERMINATION OR VALIDITY OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS, OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY.

6.6 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, and all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

6.7 Headings. The headings used in this Agreement are used for convenience only and are not to be considered in construing or interpreting this Agreement.

6.8 Notices. Any notice, demand or request required or permitted to be given by an Axis Entity or the Investor pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed delivered (i) when delivered personally or by verifiable facsimile transmission, unless such delivery is made on a day that is not a Business Day, in which case such delivery will be deemed to be made on the next succeeding Business Day, (ii) on the next Business Day after timely delivery to an overnight courier and (iii) on the Business Day actually received if deposited in the U.S. mail (certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid), addressed in accordance with the notice provisions contained in the Purchase Agreement.

6.10 Full Force and Effect. Except as specifically waived and amended hereby and for the purposes described herein, the Existing Transaction Documents shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with their respective terms. Except for the waiver and amendment contained herein, this Agreement shall not in any way waive or prejudice any of the rights of the Investor or obligations of the Company under the Transaction Documents, or under any law, in equity or otherwise, and such waiver and amendment shall not constitute a waiver or amendment of any other provision of the Transaction Documents nor a waiver or amendment of any subsequent default or breach of any obligation of the Company or of any subsequent right of the Investor.

6.10 Fees and Expenses. The Axis Entities and the Investor shall pay all costs and expenses that it incurs in connection with the negotiation, execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, provided, however, that the Company shall, concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, pay the Investor the non-accountable sum of $10,000 in immediately available funds for its expenses (including without limitation legal fees and expenses) incurred or to be incurred by it in connection with the Company’s defaults described herein and with the negotiation and preparation of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to be delivered in connection herewith.
