except all rights and agreements and obligations of whatsoever nature arising or which may arise under
this Agreement or for the breach of any provision hereof.

the other party; the opportunity of each party for further acquisitions of capital assets and income;
the sources of income of both parties, including but not limited to medical, retirement, insurahce or
other benefits; the contribution or dissipation of each party in the acquisition, preservation,
depreciation, or appreciation of the marital property, including the contribution of each spouse as a
homemaker the value of the property set apart to each party; the standard of living of the parties
established during the marriage; and the economic circumstances of each party at the time the
division of the property is to become effective.
