  45. Entire Agreement. Both parties agree that this Agreement is the complete and exclusive statement of the mutual understanding of the parties and supersedes and cancels all previous written and oral agreements, communications and other understandings relating to the subject matter of this Agreement, and that all waivers and modifications must be in a writing signed by both parties, except as otherwise provided herein. If any provision of this Agreement is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision will be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that this Agreement will otherwise remain in full force and effect and enforceable. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, including by electronic signature, pdf or facsimile, each of which will be deemed an original, but all of which will constitute one and the same document.
  46.

Any dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or the breach, termination or validity thereof, that has not been resolved by negotiation within thirty (30) days after a party’s request for negotiation, shall be settled by final, binding arbitration under the rules of the then-current JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules & Procedures, https://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration/ (“JAMS”); provided, however, that either party retains the right to apply to any court of competent jurisdiction worldwide to protect and enforce its intellectual property and other rights. The arbitrator will be able to award damages only if consistent with the terms of this Agreement. The arbitration will be held in Las Vegas, Nevada and the laws of the State of Nevada, USA shall govern this Agreement, without regard to any conflicts of laws rules. The parties will share equally the arbitrator’s fees and expenses pending the resolution of the arbitration unless the arbitrator, pursuant to its right but not its obligation, requires the non-prevailing party to bear all or any portion of the costs of the prevailing party, including its reasonable attorney’s fees and the cost of the arbitrator. The decision of the arbitrator will be final and may be sued on or enforced by the party in whose favor it runs in any court of competent jurisdiction at the option of such party.
  51. Force Majeure. Neither party shall be liable for a failure to perform any of its obligations hereunder when such failure is caused by or results from (i) strike, blacklisting, boycott or sanctions however incurred; or (ii) acts of God, public enemies, authority of law, embargo, quarantine, riot, terrorist attack, insurrection or war.
  52. Waiver. A party’s waiver of any breach of this Agreement by the other party will not constitute a waiver of any rights or any subsequent breach of the same or different provision thereof. To be enforceable, a waiver must be in writing signed by a duly authorized representative of the waiving party. Where written consent is required, such consent must be in a writing signed by a duly authorized representative of the consenting party, except where e-mail consent is expressly permitted.
