Unless specifically stated to the contrary in this Amendment (i.e., by stating that a Party’s consent or approval may be granted or withheld in its sole discretion), whenever any provision of this Amendment requires a Party to provide its consent or approval, such Party will not unreasonably condition, withhold or delay such consent or approval, provided that the Party seeking the consent is not in default under the Agreement.

3.12       No Waiver. No waiver by any Party of any right or default under this Amendment will be effective unless in writing and signed by the waiving Party.

If for any reason any provision of this Amendment is determined by a tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be legally invalid or unenforceable, the validity of the remainder of the Amendment will not be affected and such provision will be deemed modified to the minimum extent necessary to make such provision consistent with applicable law and. in its modified form, such provision will then be enforceable and enforced.
