  • Filing of Actions. Neither Party may file an action to resolve a dispute prior to 20 Business Days (or such other period as may be agreed between the Parties) after an escalation pursuant to Section 14.2.2

  • Waiver. A right may only be waived in writing, signed by the Party giving the waiver, and: no other conduct of a Party (including a failure to exercise, or delay in exercising, the right) operates as a waiver of the right or otherwise prevents the exercise of the right; a waiver of a right on one or more occasions does not operate as a waiver of that right if it arises again; and the exercise of a right does not prevent any further exercise of that right or of any other right.
  • Modification. The provisions of this Agreement will not be varied, except by express written agreement and by making explicit reference to this Agreement.
  • Severability. If any provision or part-provision of this Agreement is held invalid, unenforceable or illegal by any court or tribunal for any reason, the Agreement will remain otherwise in full force apart from such provisions or part provisions which will be deemed deleted or modified to the minimum extent necessary to remove the invalidity, unenforceability or illegality.
