Either party may terminate this Agreement by written notice if the other party fails to comply with any term of this Agreement and does not remedy the breach to the satisfaction of the notifying party within thirty (30) days of receiving written notice of the breach. Either party may also terminate this Agreement immediately if the other commits a material breach that cannot be remedied, or if the Client becomes insolvent, enters into an arrangement with creditors, has an administrator, receiver, or liquidator appointed, or would be deemed insolvent under applicable law.

13.   General

 

Neither party will be liable for delays or failures in performance caused by events beyond their reasonable control, provided the affected party promptly notifies the other and resumes performance once the circumstances cease; if such events continue for more than six months, either party may terminate this Agreement by written notice. This Agreement may only be amended in writing signed by authorised representatives of both parties. Neither party may assign or transfer its rights or obligations without the other’s prior written consent, except where a party transfers its entire business and the assignee agrees in writing to be bound by this Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties and supersedes all prior representations not expressly included herein. No failure or delay in exercising rights will operate as a waiver, and rights and remedies under this Agreement are cumulative. Nothing in this Agreement creates a partnership, joint venture, agency, or fiduciary relationship, and neither party may make commitments on behalf of the other. Each party will, at the request and expense of the other, do all things reasonably necessary to give effect to this Agreement. If any provision is found to be unlawful or unenforceable, it will be severed without affecting the remainder of the Agreement.
