8. GENERAL

8.1 Relation of Parties.
Nothing in this Agreement will create or imply an agency relationship between the parties, nor will this Agreement be deemed to constitute a joint venture or partnership between the parties.
8.2 Assignment.
Licensee may not assign, voluntarily, or by operation of law, or otherwise, any rights or delegate any duties under this Agreement without OMAX’s prior written consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, and so long as Licensee is in compliance with the provisions of this Agreement.
8.3 Equitable Remedies and Injunctive Relief.
Licensee acknowledges and agrees that any breach by Licensee of this Agreement, including but not limited to any infringement, violation or misappropriation of the intellectual property rights of OMAX may cause irreparable harm to OMAX not reasonably compensable by money damages. Accordingly, Licensee agrees that, in addition to all other remedies OMAX may have at law, OMAX shall be entitled to seek immediate equitable relief, including an injunction, against Licensee in any court of competent jurisdiction in order to restrain Licensee’s breach of this agreement or infringement, violation or misappropriation of the intellectual property rights of OMAX without the necessity for OMAX to prove the likelihood of irreparable harm, or that damages are not an adequate remedy, and without any requirement by OMAX to post bond or undertaking as to damages.
8.4 Governing Law and Venue..
This Agreement shall be subject to, construed by and enforced in accordance with the state laws of Washington state without regard for its conflicts of laws principles and, if applicable, the laws of United States of America. Subject to 8.6, the parties agree to attorn to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting at Seattle, Washington, USA, provided that nothing in this Agreement shall prevent OMAX from taking action in any court of competent jurisdiction to seek injunctive and equitable relief to restrain Licensee from any breach of this Agreement.
8.5 Attorneys’ Fees.
In addition to any other rights hereunder, the substantially prevailing party, as a court of competent jurisdiction (as provided above) may determine, in any claim or other dispute which relates to this Agreement, regardless of whether such claim or other dispute arises from a breach of contract, tort, violation of a statute or other cause of action, shall have the right to recover and collect from the other party its reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith, including, without limitation, its reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred in any litigation or appeal therefrom. If a party substantially prevails on some aspects of such claim or dispute but not others, the court may apportion any award of costs or attorneys’ fees in such manner as it deems equitable.
8.6 Severability.
If any term of this Agreement is found to be unenforceable or contrary to law, it will be modified to the least extent necessary to make it enforceable, and, if the foregoing modification is not possible, it shall be severed from this Agreement, and the remaining portions of this Agreement will remain in full force and effect.
8.7 Force Majeure.
Neither party will be held responsible for any delay or failure in performance of any part of this Agreement to the extent that such delay is caused by events or circumstances beyond the delayed party’s reasonable control.
8.8 Waiver.
The waiver by any party of any breach of this Agreement will not be construed to be a waiver of any succeeding breach. All waivers must be in writing, and signed by the party waiving its rights.
8.9 Entire Agreement.
