The indemnifying party will have full control and authority over the defense, except that: (a) any settlement requiring the party seeking indemnification to admit liability requires prior written consent of the indemnifying party, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed and (b) the other party may join in the defense with its own counsel at its own expense.

All order forms, terms and conditions or any other documents provided by the Customer are specifically excluded from and do not form part of the terms of the Agreement.
Neither party will be liable for any breach of this Agreement due to Force Majeure. However, this section will not apply to Customer’s payment obligations under this Agreement. As soon as practicable after an event of Force Majeure arises, the party affected by Force Majeure must notify the other party of the extent to which the notifying party is unable to perform its obligations under this Agreement.
