12.3. Force Majeure. In no event shall either Party be liable to the other Party, or be deemed to have breached this Agreement, for any failure or delay in performing its obligations under this Agreement, if and to the extent such failure or delay is caused by any circumstances beyond such Party’s reasonable control, including but not limited to acts of God, flood, fire, earthquake, explosion, war, terrorism, invasion, riot or other civil unrest, strikes, labor stoppages or slowdowns or other industrial disturbances, or passage of law or any action taken by a governmental or public authority, including imposing an embargo.

Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, (a) no failure to exercise, or delay in exercising, any rights, remedy, power, or privilege arising from this Agreement will operate or be construed as a waiver thereof and (b) no single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power, or privilege hereunder will preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power, or privilege.
12.5. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability will not affect any other term or provision of this Agreement or invalidate or render unenforceable such term or provision in any other jurisdiction. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect their original intent as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.
12.6. Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction. This Agreement is governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule that would require or permit the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than those of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Any legal suit, action, or proceeding arising out of or related to this Agreement or the licenses granted hereunder will be instituted exclusively in the federal courts of the United States or the courts of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts located in the City of Boston, and each Party irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts in any such suit, action, or proceeding.
12.7. Assignment. Customer may not assign any of its rights or delegate any of its obligations hereunder, in each case whether voluntarily, involuntarily, by operation of law or otherwise, without the prior written consent of Nurse-1-1; provided, however that this Agreement may be assigned by Customer in connection with the sale of substantially all of the assets, equity or business of Customer. Any purported assignment or delegation by Customer in violation of this Section will be null and void. No assignment or delegation will relieve Customer of any of its obligations hereunder. Subject to the foregoing limitations on assignment, this Agreement is binding upon and inures to the benefit of the Parties and their respective permitted successors and assigns.
12.8. Export Regulation. The Services utilize software and technology that may be subject to US export control laws, including the US Export Administration Act and its associated regulations. Customer shall not, directly or indirectly, export, re-export, or release the Services or the underlying software or technology to, or make the Services or the underlying software or technology accessible from, any jurisdiction or country to which export, re-export, or release is prohibited by law, rule, or regulation. Customer shall comply with all applicable federal laws, regulations, and rules, and complete all required undertakings (including obtaining any necessary export license or other governmental approval), prior to exporting, re-exporting, releasing, or otherwise making the Services or the underlying software or technology available outside the US.

Accordingly, if Customer is an agency of the US Government or any contractor therefor, Customer only receives those rights with respect to the Services and Documentation as are granted to all other end users, in accordance with (a) 48 C.F.R. § 227.7201 through 48 C.F.R. § 227.7204, with respect to the Department of Defense and their contractors, or (b) 48 C.F.R. § 12.212, with respect to all other US Government users and their contractors.
12.10. Equitable Relief. Each Party acknowledges and agrees that a breach or threatened breach by such Party of any of its obligations under Section 6 or, in the case of Customer, Section 2.3 and Section 12.12, would cause the other Party irreparable harm for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy and agrees that, in the event of such breach or threatened breach, the other Party will be entitled to equitable relief, including a restraining order, an injunction, specific performance and any other relief that may be available from any court, without any requirement to post a bond or other security, or to prove actual damages or that monetary damages are not an adequate remedy. Such remedies are not exclusive and are in addition to all other remedies that may be available at law, in equity or otherwise.
12.11. Non-Disparagement. Customer agrees not to disparage or otherwise denigrate Nurse-1-1, including its services and products.
12.12. Non-Solicitation and Restrictions on Hiring. During the term of this Agreement and for a period of one (1) year thereafter, Customer shall not (a) recruit or solicit any person who served as a Health Expert via the Nurse-1-1 Platform during the term of this Agreement for the purpose of hiring that Health Expert, either directly or on an independent contractor/consulting basis (except for any individual who, at such time, has not served as a Health Expert via the Nurse-1-1 Platform for a period of one year or longer), nor (b) hire, either directly or on an independent contractor/consulting basis, any employee of Nurse-1-1 (including any person who was an employee of Nurse-1-1 during the during the preceding one-year period).

12.14. Nurse-1-1 Policies. In the event that either of such Nurse-1-1 Terms or Nurse-1-1 Privacy Policy conflicts with any Customer policy in relation to access and use of the Services, the Nurse-1-1 policies shall control.
