Other than as expressly stated herein, the remedies provided herein are in addition to, and not exclusive of, any other remedies of a party at law or in equity.

13.4. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be contrary to law, the provision shall be modified by the court and interpreted so as best to accomplish the objectives of the original provision to the fullest extent permitted by law, and the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in effect.

13.5. Assignment. Neither party may assign any of its rights or obligations hereunder, whether by operation of law or otherwise, without the prior written consent of the other party (not to be unreasonably withheld). Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may assign this Agreement in its entirety, without consent of the other party, to its Affiliate or in connection with a merger, acquisition, corporate reorganization, or sale of all or substantially all of its assets not involving a direct competitor of the other party. A party's sole remedy for any purported assignment by the other party in breach of this paragraph shall be, at the non-assigning party's election, termination of this Agreement upon written notice to the assigning party. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the parties, their respective successors, and permitted assigns.

13.6. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including all exhibits and addenda hereto and all Order Form(s) executed in accordance with this Agreement, constitutes the entire agreement between the parties and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements, proposals, or representations, written or oral, concerning its subject matter. No modification, amendment, or waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless in writing and either signed or accepted electronically by the party against whom the modification, amendment or waiver is to be asserted. However, to the extent of any conflict or inconsistency between the provisions in the body of this Agreement and any exhibit or addendum hereto or any Order Form, the terms of such exhibit, addendum or Order Form shall prevail.

13.7. Force Majeure. Neither ER Tech Pros nor Customer shall be held liable for failure of or delay in performing its obligations under this Agreement if such failure or delay is the result of an act of God, such as earthquake, hurricane, tornado, flooding, or other natural disasters, or in the case of war, action of foreign enemies, cyberwarfare, cyberterrorism or hacking, cyberattacks, terrorist activities, pandemics, labor dispute or strike, government sanction, blockage, embargo, or failure of electrical service. The non-performing party must make every reasonable attempt to minimize delay of performance. In the event force majeure continues longer than one hundred and twenty (120) days, either party may terminate the Agreement.

13.8. Publicity. ER Tech Pros will not, without Customer's prior written approval, cause or permit to be released any publicity, including press releases, advertisements, news/web releases, announcements, customer lists that include any name or trademark of Customer, or any other form of public communication that relate to the Services hereunder (including any use of Third-Party Applications), ER Tech Pros' relationship with Customer or this Agreement, or denial or confirmation of same.

13.9. Mutual Non-Solicitation Clause. Both Parties agree that during the Term, and for two (2) years following the termination of this Agreement or the maximum time period permitted by applicable law, regardless of cause, that neither Party shall directly or indirectly solicit, or cause others to solicit, the employment of any employee of the other Party without the other Party's expressed prior written consent, and that neither Party shall interfere with the other Party's relationship with, or endeavor to entice away from the other Party, any person who, on the date of the termination of this Agreement and/or at any time during the one (1) year period prior to the termination of the Term, was a customer of the other Party or otherwise had a material business relationship with the other Party.
