I executed this script in a Linux system and it could be executed without errors.
So, it seems that the error you are getting is AIX specific.

The error you are getting means, there is a ` character but there is no closing ` character for it..

For example ; let's write a one liner script as below;

erman.ksh
---------------
echo `date '

You see I didn't put closing ` character after date, but I put the character ' instead.

Now I m executing it and getting the error you are getting;

[root@exatest erm2]# ksh erman.ksh
erman.ksh: syntax error at line 1: ``' unmatched

So, as you see there should be the same issue in your script.
However, I can not see a similar issue like that and when I execute your script with ksh in Linux, I don't get any errors..

1)So how do you execute this script? Send me the screenshot that I can show the execution and the error.
2)Send me the output of the following -> ksh -n script_name
