11. Counterparts. If the Agreements are signed manually, each may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. If the Agreements are signed electronically, Company’s records of such execution shall be presumed accurate unless proven otherwise.
12. Force Majeure. Neither party is liable for any default or delay in the performance of any of its obligations under the Agreements (other than failure to make payments when due) if such default or delay is caused, directly or indirectly, by forces beyond such party’s reasonable control, including, without limitation, fire, flood, acts of God, labor disputes, accidents, acts of war or terrorism, epidemics, pandemics, government order, interruptions of transportation or communications, supply shortages or the failure of any third party to perform any commitment relative to the production or delivery of any equipment or material required for such party to perform its obligations hereunder.
13. No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Except as otherwise expressly provided in the Agreements, nothing is intended, nor shall anything herein be construed to confer any rights, legal or equitable, in any person other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Customer acknowledges and agrees that Company, and any supplier of third-party supplier that is identified as a third-party beneficiary, is an intended third-party beneficiary of the provisions set forth in the Agreements as they relate specifically to its products or services and shall have the right to enforce directly the terms and conditions of the Agreements with respect to its products or services against Customer as if it were a party to the Agreements.
14. Government Regulations. Customer may not export, re-export, transfer or make available, whether directly or indirectly, any regulated item or information to anyone outside the United States in connection with the Agreements without first complying with all export control laws and regulations which may be imposed by the United States government and any country or organization of nations within whose jurisdiction Customer operates or does business.
15. U.S. Export Laws. Company Site and the Services are subject to the export laws, restrictions, regulations and administrative acts of the United States Department of Commerce, Department of Treasury Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”), State Department, and other United States authorities (collectively, “U.S. Export Laws”).
