128 mail, postage prepaid, to the address of the party specified in this Agreement or such
\r
129 other address as either party may specify in writing. Such notice shall be deemed to have
\r
130 been given upon receipt.
\r
132 8.3 Non-Waiver. No term or provision hereof shall be deemed waived, and no breach
\r
133 excused, unless such waiver or consent shall be in writing and signed by the party claimed
\r
134 to have waived or consented. Any consent or waiver, whether express or implied, shall not
\r
135 constitute a consent or waiver of, or excuse for any separate, different or subsequent
\r
138 8.4 Independent Contractor. The parties' relationship shall be solely that of
\r
139 independent contractors, and nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed to make

142 8.5 Choice of Law and Forum. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed under
\r
143 the laws of the State of California, without giving effect to such state's conflict of laws
\r
144 principles. The parties hereby submit to the personal jurisdiction of, and agree that any
\r
145 legal proceeding with respect to or arising under this Agreement shall be brought in, the

\r
150 "commercial item" as that term is defined at 48 C.F.R 2.101, or "commercial computer
\r
151 software" and "commercial computer software documentation" as such terms are used in
\r

153 48 C.F.R. 227.7202 of the DoD FAR Supplement and its successors.
\r
155 8.7 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be unenforceable under
\r
156 applicable law, then such provision shall be excluded from this Agreement and the balance
\r
157 of this Agreement shall be interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and shall be
\r
158 enforceable in accordance with its terms. The court in its discretion may substitute for
\r
159 the excluded provision an enforceable provision which in economic substance reasonably
\r
160 approximates the excluded provision.
\r
162 8.8 Compliance With Law. Licensee shall comply with all applicable laws and
\r
163 regulations (including privacy laws and regulations) having application to or governing its
\r
164 use and/or operation of the Software and agrees to indemnify and hold InMon harmless from
\r
165 and against any claims, damages, losses or obligations suffered or incurred by InMon
\r
166 arising from its failure to so comply.
\r
168 8.9 Entire Agreement; Amendment. This Agreement constitutes the final, complete and
\r
169 entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and

170 supersedes any previous proposals, negotiations, agreements, or arrangements, whether
\r
171 verbal or written, made between the parties with respect to such subject matter. This
\r
172 Agreement shall control over any additional or conflicting terms in any of Licensee's

\r
174 by mutual agreement of authorized representatives of the parties in writing.
