9.2. Force Majeure. In no event shall we be liable to you, or be deemed to have breached the Agreement, for any failure or delay in performing our obligations under the Agreement, if and to the extent such failure or delay is caused by any circumstance beyond our reasonable control, including, but not limited to: flood, fire, hurricane, earthquake, pandemic, other acts of God or of nature, civil unrest, terrorism, war, third-party criminal or willful cyber-related acts, any action taken by a government authority or other public authority (such as imposing an embargo), or international, national, or regional shortage of adequate power, telecommunications capacity, or transportation (each a “Force Majeure Event”).

However, if we can no longer reasonably provide the Subscription Services to you under the terms prior to modification (for example, if the modifications are required by law or result from general product changes), then the Agreement and/or affected Subscription Services will terminate upon our notice to you and we will promptly refund any applicable prepaid but unused Fees.

9.5. Assignment.

The parties agree the Agreement will not be construed in favor of or against either party by reason of authorship.

9.7. Governing Law. The Agreement is governed solely by, and construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the state of Oregon without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law principle that would apply the laws of any other jurisdiction to the parties’ rights and duties.

EACH PARTY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LEGAL ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE TERMS OR AGREEMENT.
