The affected Party will provide the non-affected Party with written notice of such Force Majeure Event and its anticipated duration. The non-affected Party may terminate this Agreement by providing written notice to the other Party if a Force Majeure Event continues substantially uninterrupted for a period of forty-five (45) days or more.
- Relationship of Parties. The Parties to this Agreement are independent contractors. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to create any agency, partnership, joint venture, or any other joint enterprise between the Parties. Neither Party shall have the authority to contract for or bind the other Party.

- Equitable Relief. Each Party acknowledges and agrees that a breach or threatened breach by such Party of any of its obligations under Section 6 (Confidentiality) may cause the other Party irreparable harm for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy. In the event of such breach or threatened breach, the other Party may seek injunctive or other equitable relief from any court of competent jurisdiction without the need to post bond or prove actual damages (to the extent the same is not required by law). Such remedies are not exclusive and are without prejudice to any other rights or remedies such Party may have, whether at law, in equity, or otherwise.
- Amendments. Company may amend this Agreement from time to time by posting an updated version at its website and providing Customer written notice of such amendment. Such amendment will be deemed accepted and become effective within twenty (20) days after such notice (the “Proposed Amendment Date”), unless Customer first gives Company written notice of rejection of such amendment. In such instance, this Agreement will continue under its original provisions for the then-current Term, and the amendment will become effective on the start of the next Renewal Term following the Proposed Amendment Date. Customer’s choice to not terminate this Agreement upon the conclusion of the then-current Renewal Term will constitute Customer’s acceptance of the amended terms of this Agreement.

- Waiver. No failure or delay by either Party to enforce any term of this Agreement or exercise any right hereunder will operate as a waiver of such Party’s right or of such term unless expressly set forth in a written agreement signed by the waiving Party. No waiver of any term of this Agreement or right hereunder will operate as a subsequent waiver of such term or right, or of any other term of this Agreement or other right hereunder.
- Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable as adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision of this Agreement or invalidate or render unenforceable any other provision, all of which shall remain in full force and effect to the greatest extent permitted by law. Upon a determination by a court of competent jurisdiction that a provision is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, such provision shall be modified so as to give the fullest effect of the original terms to the extent permitted by law, or, in the event such modification is not permitted by law, the Parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible.
- Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including all documents incorporated herein by reference, constitutes the sole and entire Agreement of the Parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement, and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous understandings and agreements, whether oral or written, with respect to the subject matter. In the event of a conflict or inconsistency between this Master Subscription Agreement and the Order Form, this Master Subscription Agreement shall govern and control, provided that the Order Form will control if the Parties expressly identify the provision of this Master Subscription Agreement which they intend to supersede.
