The parties have required that this Agreement and all documents relating thereto be drawn up in English. The waiver by a party of one breach or default under this Agreement will not constitute the waiver of any subsequent breach or default. If any provision of this Agreement, or the application of such provision to any person or circumstance, is declared to be invalid or unenforceable by a court or tribunal of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect the remaining provisions of this Agreement or the application of such provisions to persons or circumstances other than those to which it is held invalid or unenforceable; and if such invalidity or unenforceability is due to the determination that the provision’s scope is excessively broad or restrictive under applicable law then in effect, then such provision shall be construed by modifying its scope so as to be enforceable to the fullest extent compatible with applicable law then in effect. The parties will engage in good faith negotiations to replace any provision which is declared invalid or unenforceable with a valid and enforceable provision, the economic effect of which approximates as much as possible the invalid or unenforceable provision which it replaces. You acknowledge that neither this Agreement nor the rights of use to the Services granted under this Agreement may be assigned, transferred, sold or otherwise conveyed to any other person without the prior written consent of SASA. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties, their successors, and permitted assigns. Each party acknowledges that it is not entering into the Agreement on the basis of any representations not expressly contained herein. Other than as specified herein, the Agreement may only be supplemented or modified by an amendment in writing executed by the parties and no additional or conflicting term in a purchase order or other document shall have any effect. A party shall not be responsible for any delay in performance of the terms of this Agreement where such failure or delay is directly or indirectly caused by an act of God, war, insurrection, riot, fire, flood, explosion or other cause beyond the reasonable control of the party, provided that the party shall use all reasonable efforts in the circumstances to perform its obligations hereunder notwithstanding the occurrence of such force majeure event. All dollar amounts referred to in this agreement are listed in Canadian Dollars. The article and section headings contained herein are included solely for convenience, are not intended to be full or accurate descriptions of the contents thereof and shall not be considered part of this Agreement or to affect the interpretation hereof. |
