Limitation on Damages. Enertopia agrees that MOGIL and its personnel shall not be liable to Enertopia for any claims, liabilities, or expenses relating to this Agreement for an aggregate amount in excess of the fees paid by Enertopia to MOGIL pursuant to this Agreement, except to the extent finally judicially determined to have resulted from the gross negligence or intentional misconduct of MOGIL. In no event shall MOGIL or its personnel be liable for consequential, special, indirect, incidental, punitive, or exemplary losses or damages relating to this engagement. This limitation on liability provision shall apply to the fullest extent of the law, whether in contract, statute, tort (such as negligence), or otherwise.

   
4.

Third Parties and Internal Use. Except as otherwise agreed, all services hereunder shall be solely for ENertopia’s internal purposes and use, and this engagement does not create privity between MOGIL and any person or party other than Enertopia (“Third Party”).

Governing Law and Severability.

If any provision of this Agreement is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable, such provision shall not affect the other provisions, but such unenforceable provision shall be deemed modified to the extent necessary to render it enforceable, preserving to the fullest extent permissible the intent of the parties set forth in this Agreement. The parties acknowledge and agree that this Agreement allocates risk between them as authorized by any applicable law and that the amount of the fees charged for the services reflects this allocation of risk and other limitations of liability contained in this Agreement.

8.

Dispute Resolution Procedure. If any dispute, controversy or claim arises in connection with the performance or breach of this Agreement, either party may, upon written notice to the other party, request facilitated negotiations. Such negotiations will be assisted by a neutral facilitator acceptable to both parties and will require the best efforts of the parties to discuss with each other in good faith their respective positions and, respecting their different interests, to finally resolve such dispute.

   

Each party may disclose any facts to the other party or to the facilitator, which it, in good faith, considers necessary to resolve the dispute. However, all such disclosures will be deemed in furtherance of settlement efforts and will not be admissible in any subsequent litigation against the disclosing party. Except as agreed by both parties, the facilitator will keep confidential all information disclosed during negotiations. The facilitator will not act as a witness for either party in any subsequent arbitration between the parties.

   

Such facilitated negotiations will conclude within sixty (60) days from receipt of the written notice unless extended by mutual consent. The parties may also agree at any time to terminate or waive facilitated negotiations. The costs incurred by each party in such negotiations will be borne by it; the fees and expenses of the facilitator, if any, will be borne equally by the parties.





9.

MOGIL and Enertopia acknowledge that the relationship between the parties to this Agreement is exclusively that of an independent contractor and that MOGIL obligations to Enertopia are exclusively contractual in nature. This Agreement does not create an agency, employment, partnership joint venture, trust or other fiduciary relationship between the parties. Neither party shall have the right to bind the other to any Third Party or otherwise to act in any way as a representative or agent of the other.

  
10.

Entire Agreement.
