This Agreement, including all schedules, exhibits and addenda hereto and all Order Forms, constitute the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements, proposals or representations, written or oral, concerning its subject matter. No modification, amendment, or waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless in writing and either signed or accepted electronically by the party against whom the modification, amendment or waiver is to be asserted. To the extent of any conflict or inconsistency between the provisions in the body of this Agreement and any Order Form(s), schedule or addendum hereto, the terms of such Order Form(s), schedule or addendum shall prevail. Notwithstanding any language to the contrary therein, no terms or conditions stated in Your purchase order or other order documentation submitted by You shall be incorporated into or form any part of this Agreement, and all such terms or conditions shall be null and void. Wherever the term "including" is used, it shall mean "including, but not limited to". This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original for all purposes, and together shall constitute one and the same agreement.
    2. Export Compliance. Each party shall comply with the export laws and regulations of Canada, the United States and other applicable jurisdictions in providing and using the Services. Without limiting the foregoing, (i) each party represents that it is not named on any U.S. government list of persons or entities prohibited from receiving exports, and (ii) You covenant that You shall not—directly or indirectly—sell, export, re-export, transfer, divert, or otherwise dispose of any products, software, or technology (including products derived from or based on such technology) received from Us under this Agreement to or for use in or by any country (such as Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Sudan, or Syria), entity, or person subject to restrictions under the laws or regulations of any jurisdiction, including without limitation, the United States, without providing advance notification to Us and obtaining prior authorization from the relevant government authorities as required by those laws and regulations. Prior to any such export event, You and Us shall execute a written agreement to govern the use, control, and transfer of the applicable software and data. You hereby indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by law, Us and our assigns from and against any fines, penalties, judgments, settlements, and reasonable documented costs, including attorney’s fees, that may arise as a result of You and Your agents, officers, directors or employees breach of this provision.

Neither party to this Agreement shall be liable to the other for any failure or delay in performance by circumstances beyond its control, including but not limited to, acts of God, fire, labor difficulties, governmental action or terrorism, or vandalism or "hacker" attacks, provided that the party seeking to rely on such circumstances gives written notice of such circumstances to the other party hereto and uses reasonable efforts to overcome such circumstances. Any failure occasioned by the foregoing shall be remedied as soon as reasonably possible.
    4. Relationship of the Parties. The parties are independent contractors. This Agreement does not create a partnership, franchise, joint venture, agency, fiduciary or employment relationship between the parties.
    5. Waiver and Cumulative Remedies. No failure or delay by either party in exercising any right under this Agreement shall constitute a waiver of that right.

    6. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be contrary to law, the provision shall be modified by the court and interpreted so as best to accomplish the objectives of the original provision to the fullest extent permitted by law, and the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in effect.
    7. Attorney’s Fees. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event of your bankruptcy or insolvency, we will be entitled to recover from you our costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, that we incur enforcing and/or otherwise protecting our rights and remedies under this Agreement or amendments and modifications thereto.
