10.3 Entire Agreement; Precedence.  This Agreement and any Statements of Work contain the final and complete agreement between the Parties for the provision of the Platform and performance of the Services and supersede all prior and contemporaneous conduct, agreements, statements, representations, negotiations, course of conduct, course of dealing, and communications pertaining to those Services and the Platform, whether written or oral. This Agreement cannot be modified or amended, except in accordance with a written agreement signed by an authorized representative of each Party.  In the event of any conflict between this Agreement and a Order, the terms and conditions of this Agreement will govern unless such Order expressly amends such terms and conditions, in which case such amended terms and conditions will govern with respect to such Order only.    

10.4 Force Majeure.  Each Party will be excused from performance for any period during which, and to the extent that, it is prevented from performing any of its obligations under this Agreement, in whole or in part, as a result of a cause beyond its reasonable control and without its fault or negligence, including, but not limited to, acts of God, acts of war, epidemics, fire, communication line failures, power failures, earthquakes, floods, blizzard, or other natural disasters (but excluding failure caused by a party’s financial condition or any internal labor problems (including strikes, lockouts, work stoppages or slowdowns, or the threat thereof)) (a “Force Majeure Event”).  Delays in performing obligations due to a Force Majeure Event will automatically extend the deadline for performing such obligations for a period equal to the duration of such Force Majeure Event.  Except as otherwise agreed upon by the Parties in writing, in the event such non-performance continues for a period of thirty (30) days or more, either Party may terminate this Agreement by giving written notice thereof to the other Party.  Upon the occurrence of any Force Majeure Event, the affected Party will give the other Party written notice thereof as soon as reasonably practicable of its failure of performance, describing the cause and effect of such failure, and the anticipated duration of its inability to perform.

10.6 Waiver.  A Party’s failure or delay in enforcing the terms and conditions of this Agreement or in insisting upon strict performance of any of the other Party’s obligations will not be interpreted as a waiver thereof. Waiver of any provision of this Agreement by either Party will only be effective if in writing and will not be interpreted as a waiver of any subsequent breach or failure under the same or any other provision of this Agreement. No conduct, statement, course of conduct, course of dealing, oral expression, or other action will be construed as a waiver.

10.7 Severability.  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.

10.8 Assignment.  Neither Party may assign this Agreement to a third party without the other Party’s prior written consent; provided, however, that either Party may assign this Agreement to an acquirer of or successor to all or substantially all of its business or assets to which this Agreement relates, whether by merger, sale of assets, sale of stock, reorganization or otherwise.  Any assignment or attempted assignment by either Party otherwise than in accordance with this Section 10.8 will be null and void.
