16.1 All notices required by or relating to this Agreement will be in writing and will be sent by mail to the Licensor at the address set forth on the first page of this Agreement; to the Licensee by mail or in electronic form to the address set forth in the relevant Order; or to such other address as either party may specify by written notice to the other.

17. GENERAL

17.1 The Licensor reserves the right at any time to cease the support of the Software and to alter prices, features, specifications, capabilities, functions, licensing terms, release dates, general availability or other characteristics of the Software.

17.2 The Licensee shall notify Licensor in writing, without undue delay, of any changes in the data contained in this Agreement or any other arrangement between the Licensor and the Licensee, or any changes affecting the Licensee's identity or legal status, or any significant facts and changes that relate to or might have a substantial impact upon its transactions or business relationship with the Licensor or the Licensee's ability to fulfil its obligations towards the Licensor or of which the Licensor could reasonably be expected to want to be informed, and shall submit documents evidencing such changes and other information as the Licensor may reasonably request. Any change shall become effective against and binding on the Licensor on the business day following receipt of such notification, notwithstanding any information contained in any public register. The Licensee is responsible for any loss or damage incurred by the Licensor or the Licensee arising out of the failure of the Licensee to duly and promptly notify the Licensor of such changes.

17.3 Except for Site License and Global License pursuant to this Agreement, and except when neither Automatic License Audit nor License Server is used, the Licensee will at all times maintain records specifically identifying the Software licensed under this Agreement, the location of each copy thereof, and the location and identity of the workstations and servers (Devices) on which the Software is installed. The Licensor may, during regular business hours and upon reasonable advance notice, conduct an audit to determine the Licensee's compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The Licensee will permit the Licensor or its authorized agents to access the Licensee's facilities, workstations and servers, and otherwise cooperate fully with the Licensor in any such investigation and will take all commercially reasonable actions to assist the Licensor in accurately determining the Licensee's compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

17.4 Neither party will be liable for any delay in or failure to perform any of its non-monetary obligations under this Agreement if due to any cause or condition beyond their reasonable control, whether foreseeable or not.

17.5 This Agreement, the relevant Order, the then current Price List and the then current Specifications of the Software, and possibly also other arrangements related to the Software agreed between the parties in writing, as the case may be, constitute the entire agreement between the parties concerning the Software. Any reference to Licensee's terms and conditions or any other general terms and conditions included in Licensee's order or in any other communication shall in no event apply to the contractual relationship between the parties hereto and shall have no legal effect.

17.6 The Software includes functionality that when utilized by Licensee may enable temporary access to sensitive data such as passwords or credit card numbers in diagnostic logs and audit servers ("Diagnostic Data"). Licensee does not monitor the content processed by the Software and Licensor is responsible for properly configuring the Software to manage Diagnostic Data and obtaining any required consents to provide access to the Diagnostic Data and disclaims any liability for Licensee's use of the Software in violation of applicable security and privacy laws.

17.7 Nothing in this Agreement shall create a partnership or a corporation between the parties, nor deem either party the agent of the other party for any purpose.

17.8 If any provision of this Agreement is or becomes invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect the remaining provisions of this Agreement. The parties are committed to cooperate on replacing the invalid or unenforceable provision with a valid and enforceable one which will achieve the same economic result (to the maximum extent legally possible) as the provision which is or has become invalid or unenforceable.

17.9 If the wording or sense of any provision of this Agreement implies that the obligation(s) stipulated therein shall last after the termination of the Agreement, the parties are obliged to comply with such obligation(s) after the termination of the Agreement. In particular, the parties are obliged to protect the Confidential Information and its confidential character even after the termination of the Agreement.

17.10 For the avoidance of any doubts the parties explicitly confirm they are business entities and enter in the Agreement as businesses and therefore neither the provisions of S. 1693 of the Civil Code (disproportionate shortening) nor S. 1696 of the Civil Code (usury) shall be applied hereto.

17.11 This Agreement is governed by and shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the Czech Republic without regard to the conflict of law principles thereof. Any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or in connection with this Agreement shall be settled by the courts of the Czech Republic. In accordance with Section 89a of Act No. 99/1963 Coll., the Czech Civil Procedure Code, the parties hereby agree that the competent court shall be the general court nearest to where the Licensor is registered, e.g. the Prague Commerce Tribunal.
