This Agreement shall be governed by the law of the State of California, United States of America, without regard to its conflict of law principles. 19.2 Dispute Resolution. Except for claims regarding the infringement, validity or scope of either Party's intellectual property rights, to which this Section 19.2 will not apply, the Parties shall endeavor to resolve disputes through the procedures of Sections 19.2.1 and 19.2.2. 19.2.1 Each Party will make reasonable best efforts to resolve amicably any disputes or claims under this Agreement among the Parties. These efforts shall include the escalation to negotiations between senior officers or principals of the Parties ("Designated Executives"), in which case the disputing Party will give the other Party written notice of the nature of the dispute and proposed resolution. Within seven (7) days after receipt of such notice, the responding Party shall submit a written response, and counter resolution. The Designated Executives shall then meet at a mutually acceptable time and place (or San Francisco, California, if no such place can be agreed upon) within ten (10) business days of the date of the responding Party's response, to conduct good faith negotiations to resolve amicably the dispute. If the matter has not been resolved pursuant to the aforesaid negotiation procedure within thirty (30) days, the matter will be resolved pursuant to Section 19.2.2, below. 19.2.2 Except for claims regarding the infringement, validity or scope of either Party's Patent Rights, to which this Section will not apply, in the event that a resolution is not reached among the Parties within thirty (30) days after written notice by any Party of the dispute or claims through the procedures of Section 19.2.1, the dispute or claim shall be finally settled by binding arbitration in San Francisco, California, in accordance with the then in effect Commercial Dispute Rules of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"). The arbitration shall be administered out of the local San Francisco Office of the AAA. Three (3) arbitrators shall be appointed in accordance with the AAA rules. Depositions may be taken and discovery may be obtained, subject to time period restrictions set by the arbitrator; the arbitrator will give active, attentive case management to the scope, form, cost effectiveness and scheduling of all discovery. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is agreed that the arbitral proceedings will be conducted in such a manner that the substantive merit of the Claim is 13 ruled upon by the arbitrator within sixty (60) days after the selection of the arbitrator. In the event of any conflict between the Rules of the AAA, the provisions of this Section will govern. In any arbitral proceeding under this paragraph, each Party will bear its own attorneys' fees and expenses; except that the losing Party will bear the reasonable costs and expenses of the prevailing Party, and the costs and expenses of the arbitrator, in connection with such proceedings. The award of arbitration shall be final and binding upon both Parties, and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. Any monetary award shall be payable in United States dollars. 19.3 Injunctive Relief and Infringement Claims. Each of the Parties acknowledges that unauthorized disclosure or use of the other Party's Confidential Information or infringement or misappropriation of the other Party's intellectual property rights could cause irreparable harm and significant injury that would be difficult to ascertain and may not be compensable by damages alone. Accordingly, the Parties agree that, in addition to any and all legal remedies, claims regarding: (i) intellectual property rights; (ii) Confidential Information; or (iii) a violation of the obligations of Section 4.6, may be remedied by specific performance, injunction or other appropriate equitable relief. For all claims regarding the infringement, validity or scope of either Party's intellectual property rights, such claims shall be brought before and take place in the U.S. Federal Courts in and for the Northern District of California, except for any claim based upon a complaint filed with the International Trade Commission under Section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930. 19.4 Assignment. Neither Party may assign any or all of its rights and/or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement: (i) to a Subsidiary; or (ii) in connection with a merger, reorganization or sale of all or substantially all of Buyer's assets which relate to the business pertinent to the license under this Agreement. Any assignment permitted hereunder will be subject to the written consent of the assignee to all of the terms and provisions of this Agreement. Any attempted assignment in derogation of this Section 19.4 will be null and void. 19.5 Modification and Waiver. No modification to this Agreement, nor any waiver of any rights, will be effective unless assented to in writing by the Party to be charged, and the waiver of any breach or default shall not constitute a waiver of any other right hereunder or any subsequent breach or default. 19.6 Force Majeure. Neither Party shall be responsible for delay or failure in performance caused by any government act, law, regulation, order or decree, by communication line or power failures beyond its control, or by fire, flood or other natural disasters or by other causes beyond its reasonable control, nor shall any such delay or failure be considered to be a breach of this Agreement. In any such event, performance shall take place as soon thereafter as is reasonably feasible. If delivery of Items or the performance of Services is to be delayed by such contingencies, Seller shall immediately notify Buyer in writing. If the delay is greater than fourteen (14) days from the date of the notice, Buyer will have the option, in its sole discretion, to either (i) extend time of delivery or performance, or (ii) terminate the uncompleted portion of the order at no cost of any nature to Buyer. 19.7 Independent Contractors. In performing their respective duties under this Agreement, each of the Parties will be operating as an independent contractor. Nothing contained herein will in any way constitute any association, partnership, or joint venture between the Parties hereto, or be construed to evidence the intention of the Parties to establish any such relationship. Seller shall be responsible for any withholding taxes, payroll taxes, disability insurance payments, unemployment taxes and other similar taxes or charges on the payments received by Seller hereunder. Absent the other Party's prior written consent, neither Party has any right or authority to assume or create any obligations of any kind or to make any representation or warranty on behalf of the other Party, whether express or implied, or to bind the other Party in any respect whatsoever. 14 19.8 Severability. In the event that it is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or under arbitration under Section 19.2 that any provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal, or otherwise unenforceable, such provision will be enforced as nearly as possible in accordance with the stated intention of the Parties, while the remainder of this Agreement will remain in full force and effect and bind the Parties according to its terms. To the extent any provision cannot be enforced in accordance with the stated intentions of the Parties, such provisions will be deemed not to be a part of this Agreement. 19.9 Headings. The headings of the Sections of this Agreement are for convenience only and will not be of any effect in construing the meanings of the Sections. 19.10 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original, but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument. 19.11 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Schedules (including these Terms and Conditions) attached hereto, and the CNDA referenced on the executed cover page, constitute the entire and exclusive agreement between the Parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede any prior agreements between the Parties with respect to such subject matter. 19.12 Specific Performance. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the parties agree that the failure of the Seller to deliver an Item or perform a Service in accordance with the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement after the acceptance of a Purchase Order would cause irreparable damage to Buyer for which monetary damages would not provide an adequate remedy. Accordingly, it is agreed that, in addition to any other remedy to which Buyer may be entitled, at law or in equity, Buyer shall be entitled to injunctive relief to prevent breaches of the provisions of this Agreement by Seller, and an order of specific performance to compel performance of such obligations in any action instituted in any court of the United States or any state thereof having subject matter jurisdiction. 19.13 Survival. The rights and obligations of the parties as contained in Sections 8, 11 - 14 and 16-19 shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement along with any other right or legal obligation of a party created by a term or condition in any Addendum or Product Specification, which term or condition by its nature would survive the termination or expiration of the Agreement. 15 SCHEDULE A ITEMS AND SERVICES 1.
