Advisor affirms that it is not named on, owned by, or acting on behalf of any U.S. government denied-party list, and it agrees to comply fully with all relevant export control and sanctions laws and regulations of the United States (“Export Laws”) to ensure that neither the Services, software, any Advisor Information, nor any technical data related thereto is: (i) used, exported or re-exported directly or indirectly in violation of Export Laws; or (ii) used for any purposes prohibited by the Export Laws, including, but not limited to, nuclear, chemical, or biological weapons proliferation, missile systems or technology, or restricted unmanned aerial vehicle applications.Advisor will complete all undertakings required by Export Laws, including obtaining any necessary export license or other governmental approval.
    3. U.S. Government End Users. The Services, software and Documentation were developed solely at private expense and are “commercial products”, “commercial items”, or “commercial computer software” as defined in the Federal Acquisition Regulation 2.101 and other relevant government procurement regulations including agency supplements. Any use, duplication, or disclosure of the Services, software and Documentation by or on behalf of the U.S. government is subject to restrictions as set forth in this Agreement as consistent with federal law and regulations. If these terms fail to meet the U.S. Government’s needs or are inconsistent in any respect with federal law, Advisor will immediately discontinue its use of the Services, software and Documentation.
    4. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is, for any reason, held to be invalid or unenforceable, the other provisions of this Agreement will remain enforceable, and the invalid or unenforceable provision will be deemed modified so that it is valid and enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law.
    5. Waiver. Any waiver or failure to enforce any provision of this Agreement on one occasion will not be deemed a waiver of any other provision or of such provision on any other occasion.
    6. No Assignment. Neither party will assign, subcontract, delegate, or otherwise transfer this Agreement, or its rights and obligations herein, without obtaining the prior written consent of the other party, and any attempted assignment, subcontract, delegation, or transfer in violation of the foregoing will be null and void; provided, however, that either party may assign this Agreement in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganization or sale of all or substantially all of its assets, or other operation of law, without any consent of the other party. The terms of this Agreement will be binding upon the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.
    7. Compliance with Law. Advisor will always comply with all international and domestic laws, ordinances, regulations, and statutes that are applicable to its purchase and use of the Services, Licensed Material and Luminary Solution.
    8. Equitable Relief. Each party agrees that a breach or threatened breach by such party of any of its obligations under Section 7 or, in the case of Advisor, Section 2.3, would cause the other party irreparable harm and significant damages for which there may be no adequate remedy under law and that, in the event of such breach or threatened breach, the other party will have the right to seek immediate equitable relief, including a restraining order, an injunction, specific performance and any other relief that may be available from any court, without any requirement to post a bond or other security, or to prove actual damages or that monetary damages are not an adequate remedy. Such remedies are not exclusive and are in addition to all other remedies that may be available at law, in equity or otherwise.
    9. Force Majeure. Any delay in the performance of any duties or obligations of either party (except the payment of Fees owed) will not be considered a default or breach of this Agreement or ground for termination if such delay is caused by a computer or internet or telecommunications breakdown, labor dispute, shortage of materials, fire, earthquake, flood, or any other event beyond the control of such party, provided that such party uses reasonable efforts, under the circumstances, to notify the other party of the cause of such delay and to resume performance as soon as possible.
    10. Subcontracting. Luminary may use subcontractors, and other third-party providers (“Subcontractors”) in connection with the performance of its obligations hereunder as it deems appropriate; provided that Luminary remains responsible for the performance of each such Subcontractor. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, with respect to any third-party vendors including any hosting (e.g. AWS) or payment vendors (e.g. PayPal), Luminary will use commercially reasonable efforts to guard against any damages or issues arising in connection with such vendors, but will not be liable for the acts or omissions of such third-party vendors except to the extent that it has been finally adjudicated that such damages or issues are caused directly from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Luminary.
    11. Independent Contractors. Advisor’s relationship to Luminary is that of an independent contractor, and neither party is an agent or partner of the other. Advisor will not have and will not represent to any third party that it has, any authority to act on behalf of Luminary.
    12. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original and all of which will be taken together and deemed to be one instrument.
    13. Entire Agreement. This Agreement is the final, complete and exclusive agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matters hereof and supersedes and merges all prior discussions between the parties with respect to such subject matters. No modification of or amendment to this Agreement, or any waiver of any rights under this Agreement, will be effective unless in writing and signed by an authorized signatory of Advisor and Luminary.
