Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Customer shall not transfer, re-transfer, export or re-export such items to anyone on any Denied Parties List of any governmental entity, including but not limited to the list of Specially Designated Nationals of the U.S. Department of the Treasury; Denied Persons List or Entity List of the U.S. Department of Commerce’s; or any lists maintained by the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) of the U.S. Department of the Treasury or the U.S. Department of Homeland Security; or any such lists which may be revised from time to time, or for any use in chemical or biological weapons, sensitive nuclear end uses, missiles, etc.  Customer represents it is not located in, under control of, or a national or resident of any country on any such list.  Customer shall be solely responsible for determining compliance and obtaining all required approvals to facilitate the export of any products or technologies, including outside of the U.S., Canada or Israel, and Axtra3D shall be under no obligation to notify Customer of any changes or updates to any laws, regulations, controls, restrictions or lists contemplated hereby.  Customer shall immediately inform Axtra3D of any trade/export restrictions, whether they be of E.U., U.S., Israel or other origin, which may impact Axtra3D’s compliance with internationally respected legislation, rules, protocols, advice or recommendations relating to trade/export restrictions.  For clarity, in the event of any conflict between legislation of local origin and of U.S. origin, legislation of U.S. origin will prevail unless prohibited by mandatory legislation of local origin.
14. US GOVERNMENT USE. If Customer is part of an agency, department, or other entity of, owned or created by the United States Government (“Government”), the use, duplication, reproduction, release, modification, disclosure or transfer of the Product or Software is further restricted in accordance with the Federal Acquisition Regulations as applied to civilian agencies, and the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement as applied to defense and military agencies, for “commercial items,” “commercial computer software” and “commercial computer software documentation.” In accordance with such provisions, any use thereof by the Government shall be governed solely by these Terms.
15. All notices and communications between the parties shall be in writing and addressed and sent by: (i) email where delivery is verifiable by automated receipt; or (ii) by national or international overnight courier service where delivery receipt is provided to the addresses set forth in the Purchase Order, or to such other replacement addresses as may be provided from time to time by each party by written notice given in accordance with this Section 15.  Any notice to Axtra3D shall be to the attention of CEO or other authorized contact identified in the applicable Purchase Order acknowledgment.  Notice shall be deemed to have been duly received by a party as of the date such notice was delivered in accordance with any of the methods prescribed herein.
16. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. These Terms: (i) constitute the entire agreement and understanding between the parties regarding the terms of each Product sale, and supersede all prior and contemporaneous representations, promises, statements, agreements, and understandings, written or oral, regarding the subject matter hereof; and (ii) may only be modified and/or waived by a written agreement executed by both parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, these Terms may be modified by Axtra3D from time to time and in its discretion (with legal effect only for all sales agreed after publication and not for previous agreements), by delivery of replacement Terms to Customer, or by posting such then-current Terms at https://www.axtra3d.com/sale-terms-conditions.
17. DISPUTE RESOLUTION. Please read this Arbitration Agreement carefully. It is part of your contract with Axtra3D and affects your rights. It contains procedures for MANDATORY BINDING ARBITRATION AND A CLASS ACTION WAIVER.
    • Applicability of Arbitration Agreement. All claims and disputes (excluding claims for injunctive or other equitable relief as set forth below) in connection with the Terms or the use of any product or service provided by Axtra3D that cannot be resolved informally or in small claims court shall be resolved by binding arbitration on an individual basis under the terms of this Arbitration Agreement. Unless otherwise agreed to, all arbitration proceedings shall be held in English. This Arbitration Agreement applies to you and Axtra3D, and to any subsidiaries, affiliates, agents, employees, predecessors in interest, successors, and assigns, as well as all authorized or unauthorized users or beneficiaries of services or goods provided under the Terms.
    • Notice Requirement and Informal Dispute Resolution. Before either party may seek arbitration, the party must first send to the other party a written Notice of Dispute (“Notice”) describing the nature and basis of the claim or dispute, and the requested relief. A Notice to Axtra3D should be sent to p.tummala@axtra3d.com. We will send Notice to you using the email address that we have for you in our records. After the Notice is received, you and Axtra3D may attempt to resolve the claim or dispute informally. If you and Axtra3D do not resolve the claim or dispute within thirty (30) days after the Notice is received, either party may begin an arbitration proceeding. The amount of any settlement offer made by any party may not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator has determined the amount of the award, if any, to which either party is entitled.
    • Arbitration Rules. Arbitration shall be initiated through the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), an established alternative dispute resolution provider (“ADR Provider”) that offers arbitration as set forth in this section. If AAA is not available to arbitrate, the parties shall agree to select an alternative ADR Provider. The rules of the ADR Provider shall govern all aspects of the arbitration, including but not limited to the method of initiating and/or demanding arbitration, except to the extent such rules are in conflict with the Terms. The AAA Consumer Arbitration Rules (“Arbitration Rules”) governing the arbitration are available online at adr.org or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879.  The arbitration shall be conducted by a single, neutral arbitrator. Any claims or disputes where the total amount of the award sought is less than Ten Thousand U.S. Dollars (US $10,000.00) may be resolved through binding non-appearance-based arbitration, at the option of the party seeking relief.  For claims or disputes where the total amount of the award sought is Ten Thousand U.S. Dollars (US $10,000.00) or more, the right to a hearing will be determined by the Arbitration Rules.  Any hearing will be held in a location within 100 miles of your residence, unless you reside outside of the United States, and unless the parties agree otherwise. If you reside outside of the U.S., the arbitrator shall give the parties reasonable notice of the date, time and place of any oral hearings. Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Each party shall bear its own costs (including attorney’s fees) and disbursements arising out of the arbitration and shall pay an equal share of the fees and costs of the ADR Provider.
    • Additional Rules for Non-Appearance Based Arbitration. If non-appearance based arbitration is elected, the arbitration shall be conducted by telephone, online and/or based solely on written submissions; the specific manner shall be chosen by the party initiating the arbitration. The arbitration shall not involve any personal appearance by the parties or witnesses unless otherwise agreed by the parties.
    • Time Limits. If you or Axtra3D pursue arbitration, the arbitration action must be initiated and/or demanded within the statute of limitations (i.e., the legal deadline for filing a claim) and within any deadline imposed under the AAA Rules for the pertinent claim. NOT WITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, ANY CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM YOU MAY HAVE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR THE PURCHASE OF AN AXTRA3D PRODUCT, SOFTWARE OR SERVICE MUST BE COMMENCED WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION ACCRUES; OTHERWISE, SUCH CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM IS PERMANENTLY BARRED.
    • Authority of Arbitrator. If arbitration is initiated, the arbitrator will decide the rights and liabilities, if any, of you and Axtra3D, and the dispute will not be consolidated with any other matters or joined with any other cases or parties. The arbitrator shall have the authority to grant motions dispositive of all or part of any claim. The arbitrator shall have the authority to award monetary damages, and to grant any non-monetary remedy or relief available to an individual under applicable law, the AAA Rules, and the Terms. The arbitrator shall issue a written award and statement of decision describing the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based, including the calculation of any damages awarded.  The arbitrator has the same authority to award relief on an individual basis that a judge in a court of law would have. The award of the arbitrator is final and binding upon you and Axtra3D.
    • Waiver of Jury Trial. THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE THEIR CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO GO TO COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR A JURY, instead electing that all claims and disputes shall be resolved by arbitration under this Arbitration Agreement. Arbitration procedures are typically more limited, more efficient and less costly than rules applicable in a court and are subject to very limited review by a court. In the event any litigation should arise between you and Axtra3D in any state or federal court in a suit to vacate or enforce an arbitration award or otherwise, YOU AND AXTRA3D WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL, instead electing that the dispute be resolved by a judge.
    • Waiver of Class or Consolidated Actions. ALL CLAIMS AND DISPUTES WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT MUST BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS BASIS, AND CLAIMS OF MORE THAN ONE USER CANNOT BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED JOINTLY OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANY USER.
    • Confidentiality. All aspects of the arbitration proceeding, including but not limited to the award of the arbitrator and compliance therewith, shall be strictly confidential. The parties agree to maintain confidentiality unless otherwise required by law. This paragraph shall not prevent a party from submitting to a court of law any information necessary to enforce these Terms, to enforce an arbitration award, or to seek injunctive or equitable relief.
    • Severability. If any part or parts of this Arbitration Agreement are found under the law to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, then such specific part or parts shall be of no force and effect and shall be severed and the remainder of the Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.
    • Right to Waive. Any or all of the rights and limitations set forth in this Arbitration Agreement may be waived by the party against whom the claim is asserted.  Such waiver shall not waive or affect any other portion of this Arbitration Agreement.
    • Survival of Agreement. This Arbitration Agreement will survive the termination of your relationship with Axtra3D.
    • Small Claims Court. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either you or Axtra3D may bring an individual action in small claims court.
    • Emergency Equitable Relief. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may seek emergency equitable relief before a state or federal court in order to maintain the status quo pending arbitration. A request for interim measures shall not be deemed a waiver of any other rights or obligations under this Arbitration Agreement.
    • Claims Not Subject to Arbitration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, claims of defamation, violation of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, and infringement or misappropriation of the other party’s patent, copyright, trademark or trade secrets shall not be subject to this Arbitration Agreement.
    • Courts. In any circumstances where the foregoing Arbitration Agreement permits the parties to litigate in court, the parties hereby agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of the courts located within the State of North Carolina, for such purpose.
18. The parties hereto are independent contractors and nothing herein shall be construed as creating a partnership or granting the right to bind the other. Customer may not assign or transfer these Terms or the rights granted hereunder, except with Axtra3D’s prior written consent. Subject to the foregoing, Customer’s rights or obligations under these Terms shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of each party’s respective permitted successors and assigns. Designated third-party beneficiaries may also enforce the Terms relating to their rights.  Axtra3D reserves the rights to terminate and revoke these Terms and terminate its relationship with Customer at any time following Customer’s breach of any of these Terms, and such termination shall be effective immediately upon written notice thereof to Customer.  Upon termination for any reason, Customer shall immediately cease use of any Software not embedded within the Systems, delete or destroy all copies in its possession, including that which may have been provided to contractors or consultants, and execute and deliver to Axtra3D a certification evidencing same.  The unenforceability of any provision or part of provision of these Terms adjudged by any court of competent jurisdiction shall in no way affect the enforceability of any other provision hereof, which shall remain in full force and effect.  Any failure by either party to exercise any right or remedy under the Terms does not constitute a waiver, or signify acceptance, of the event giving rise to such right or remedy.  Any waiver or other alleged modification or amendment by Axtra3D of any provision of these Terms must be in writing and signed by an authorized officer of Axtra3D to be valid.  Provisions which by their nature should survive termination of the parties’ business relationship and any agreements between or among them, including, but not limited to, Sections 1.4 (Restrictions on Use), 2 (Payment and Cancellation), 4.1 (Transfer Terms), 7.3 (Exclusion of Warranties), 7.4 (Warranty Disclaimer), 8 (Limitation of Liability), 9 (Proprietary Rights), 10 (Confidentiality), and 13 (Export Compliance) through 17 (Dispute Resolution) and 18 (General) shall so survive indefinitely.  To the extent that these Terms are accepted electronically, Customer hereby waives any applicable rights to require an original (non-electronic) signature or delivery or retention of non-electronic records, to the extent not prohibited under applicable law.  Additionally, Axtra3D may request modifications to Customer’s purchase orders as it relates to shipping terms, risk of loss and/or payment terms without affecting or negating the enforceability of the remaining provisions set forth herein. The United Nations Convention for the Sale of Goods shall not apply to any transaction hereunder.
