  11. MISCELLANEOUS

    11.1 Governing Law and Venue. This Agreement and any action related thereto will be governed and interpreted by and under the laws of the State of California, without giving effect to any conflicts of laws principles that require the application of the law of a different jurisdiction. Subject to Section 11.2, Customer hereby expressly consents to the personal jurisdiction and venue in the state and federal courts for San Mateo County, California for any lawsuit filed there against Customer by Company arising from or related to this Agreement. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply to this Agreement. 

    11.2 Dispute Resolution; Mediation; Arbitration.  In the event of any dispute hereunder, the parties shall engage in informal, good faith discussions to resolve it.  If the parties are unable to resolve the dispute, then the parties agree to comply with the following procedures.  The dispute shall first be submitted to mediation on an expedited basis in San Mateo County, California, administered by JAMS, or its successor, in accordance with the JAMS rules and procedures then in effect.  Either party may commence mediation by providing to JAMS and the other party a written request for mediation, setting forth the subject of the dispute and the relief requested, with the expectation that the first mediation session shall occur within forty-five (45) days of such written request.  The parties will cooperate in selecting an appropriate neutral mediator from the JAMS panel of neutrals and in scheduling the mediation proceedings.  If the parties are unable to select the mediator within ten (10) business days after receipt of the mediation notice by JAMS, then JAMS shall designate the mediator.  The parties will share equally in the costs of the mediator and related JAMS administrative costs, and pay in advance the estimated reasonable fees and costs of the mediation, as may be specified in advance by the mediator.  All offers, promises, conduct and statements, whether oral or written, made in the course of the mediation by any of the parties, their agents, employees, experts and attorneys, and by the mediator, are confidential, privileged and inadmissible for any purpose, including impeachment, in any reference, arbitration, litigation or other proceeding involving the parties, provided that evidence that is otherwise admissible or discoverable shall not be rendered inadmissible or non-discoverable as a result of its use in the mediation.  Either party may seek equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction prior to the mediation to preserve the status quo pending the completion of that process.  If necessary, any party may file a motion in any court of competent jurisdiction to compel the other party to participate in the mediation and the prevailing party shall be awarded its costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees in connection with such motion. If the dispute is not resolved within ten (10) business days after the first mediation session, either party may give written notice to JAMS and the other party that the mediation is terminated and may submit the dispute to final and binding arbitration in San Mateo County, California, administered by JAMS, or its successor, in accordance with the rules and procedures of JAMS (including JAMS Comprehensive Rules) then in effect.  A party may commence the arbitration process called for in this Agreement by filing a written demand for arbitration with JAMS, with a copy to the other party.  Any and all disputes that are so submitted to arbitration shall be decided by three (3) neutral and appropriate arbitrators.  Each party shall select one (1) arbitrator and those party-selected arbitrators shall jointly select the third arbitrator, who shall act as Chairman of the arbitral tribunal.  If the party-selected arbitrators are unable to select the third arbitrator, JAMS shall designate the third arbitrator.  The parties will cooperate in selecting such arbitrators and in scheduling the arbitration proceedings.  The parties will share equally in the administrative costs and arbitrator’s fees associated with the arbitration; provided, however, that each party will bear its own attorneys’ fees and costs associated with the arbitration.  The arbitrator shall apply California law without reference to conflicts of laws principles.  Any award issued as a result of such arbitration shall be final and binding between the parties thereto and shall be enforceable by any court having jurisdiction over the party against whom enforcement is sought.  The parties expressly acknowledge that by entering into this Agreement, they each are waiving their respective rights to have any Dispute between the parties hereto adjudicated by a court or by a jury.

    11.3 Government End-Users.  The Company Solution is deemed to be “commercial computer software” and “commercial computer software documentation”, respectively, pursuant to DFAR Section 227.7202 and FAR Section 12.212(b), as applicable.  Any use, modification, reproduction, release, performing, displaying or disclosing of the Company Solution by the U.S. Government shall be governed solely by the terms of this Agreement.  This product was developed fully at private expense. All other use is prohibited.

    11.4 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is, for any reason, held to be invalid or unenforceable, the other provisions of this Agreement will remain enforceable and the invalid or unenforceable provision will be deemed modified so that it is valid and enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law. 

    11.5 Waiver. Any waiver or failure to enforce any provision of this Agreement on one occasion will not be deemed a waiver of any other provision or of such provision on any other occasion.

    11.6 No Assignment. Neither party will assign, subcontract, delegate, or otherwise transfer this Agreement, or its rights and obligations herein, without obtaining the prior written consent of the other party, and any attempted assignment, subcontract, delegation, or transfer in violation of the foregoing will be null and void; provided, however, that either party may assign this Agreement to an affiliate or in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganization or sale of all or substantially all of its assets, or other operation of law, without any consent of the other party. The terms of this Agreement will be binding upon the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. 

    11.7 Compliance with Law. Customer will always comply with all international and domestic laws, ordinances, regulations, and statutes that are applicable to its performance of its obligations and/or exercise of the rights granted to it hereunder.

    11.8 Force Majeure. Any delay in the performance of any duties or obligations of either party (except the payment of Fees owed) will not be considered a breach of this Agreement if such delay is caused by a labor dispute, shortage of materials, fire, earthquake, flood, or any other event beyond the control of such party, provided that such party uses reasonable efforts, under the circumstances, to notify the other party of the cause of such delay and to resume performance as soon as possible.

    11.9 Independent Contractors. Customer’s relationship to Company is that of an independent contractor, and neither party is an agent or partner of the other. Customer will not have, and will not represent to any third party that it has, any authority to act on behalf of Company.
