11.7 Waiver. No waiver under the Agreement will be valid or binding unless set forth in writing and duly executed by the Party against whom enforcement of such waiver is sought. Any such waiver will constitute a waiver only with respect to the specific matter described therein and will in no way impair the rights of the Party granting such waiver in any other respect or at any other time. Any delay or forbearance by either Party in exercising any right hereunder will not be deemed a waiver of that right.

11.8 Force Majeure. if a Party is prevented or delayed in performance of its obligations hereunder as a result of circumstances beyond such Party’s reasonable control, including, by way of example and not limitation, war, riot, fires, floods, acts of nature, pandemics, epidemics, public health emergencies, orders of governmental authorities, or failure of public utilities or public transportation systems, such failure or delay will not be deemed to constitute a material breach of the Agreement, but such obligation will remain in full force and effect, and will be performed or satisfied as soon as reasonably practicable after the termination of the relevant circumstances causing such failure or delay, provided that if such Party is prevented or delayed from performing for more than ninety (90) days, the other Party may terminate the Agreement immediately with written notice.
