THE LIMITATION OF LIABILITY SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION SHALL APPLY REGARDLESS OF ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY (INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, BREACH OF CONTRACT OR TORT), EVEN IF THE POSSIBILITY OF ANY DAMAGES SHOULD HAVE BEEN FORESEEN BY LOHR, AND EVEN IF ANY REMEDY PROVIDED HEREIN FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.
11. Severability
Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such a manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law. If, however, any such provision is prohibited by or invalid under such law, it will be deemed modified to conform to the minimum requirements of such law, or if for any reason it is not deemed so modified, it will be prohibited or invalid only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity without the remainder of such provision, or any other provision of this Agreement, being prohibited or invalid.
12. Revisions
Lohr may revise any provision of this Agreement from time to time by (a) posting the revised provision so that it is accessible to User on the Site, or (b) notifying User of the revised provision in an email message or other notice sent to User at the address for User in Lohr’s records. Any such revision will be effective immediately upon the earlier of such posting, sending such email message or five days after such notice is placed in regular mail, with postage prepaid, as set forth in this Section. User is responsible for periodically checking this Agreement on the Site for revisions to this Agreement. Any other revision to this Agreement must be in a writing signed by Lohr and User. The latest version of this Agreement will always be the one posted on the Site.
13. Disputes
This Agreement shall be governed by, and interpreted and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of Georgia, without regard to its principles of conflict of laws. Any complaint of User relating to the Site or this Agreement (other than any such complaint relating to the Privacy Policy) must first be submitted to Lohr as set forth in Section 14, and Lohr must be given a reasonable opportunity of not less than 30 days to investigate and respond to such complaint. Upon Lohr’s completing such investigation and so responding, User and Lohr must then attempt, in good faith, to promptly resolve any remaining aspects of such complaint. If any aspect of such complaint remains unresolved after an additional reasonable period of not less than 30 days, and User desires to pursue other remedies, User may, within one year after Lohr received User’s initial complaint, only commence a lawsuit against Lohr in connection with the unresolved portion of such complaint in a court located in Coweta County, Georgia, and having subject matter jurisdiction over such complaint. User consents to any such court being a proper venue for such complaint, and waives any right to object to such court being an improper venue, whether for inconvenience or otherwise. If any such lawsuit is commenced as set forth herein, User (a) waives any right to a jury trial, (b) consents to all findings of fact being determined by the presiding judge, and (c) waives any right to bring or join any claim against Lohr as a member or other participant in any class action or other similar form of litigation.
14. Notices
User must send notices to Lohr relating to the Site or this Agreement at info@lohr.us. Any such notice will be effective upon actual receipt by Lohr. Lohr may send notices to User relating to the Site or this Agreement through e-mail, regular mail or a general posting on the Site. Any such notice from Lohr will be effective (a) immediately upon Lohr’s sending such notice to the address it has in its records for User in the case of e-mail, (b) five days after Lohr’s sending such notice to the address it has in its records for User, with postage prepaid, in the case of regular mail, and (c) immediately upon User’s entering the Site after such notice is posted on the Site.
15. Waivers
No failure of Lohr to exercise, and no delay by Lohr in exercising, any right or remedy under this Agreement shall be a waiver of such right or remedy. No waiver of any such right or remedy shall be effective unless made in a writing signed by Lohr, and specifically referring to each such right or remedy being waived.
16. Equitable Remedies
User acknowledges that a remedy at law will be inadequate if User violates any provision of Section 1, 3, 4, 6, 7, 12, 13, 14, 16, 18 or 19, and if Lohr reasonably believes User has violated any such provision, User consents to Lohr’s obtaining from a court having jurisdiction an injunction, a restraining order, specific performance or other equitable remedy against User, without any requirement for a bond or other security. The right of Lohr to obtain any such equitable remedy shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, each other right or remedy available to Lohr under this Agreement or any applicable law.
17. Force Majeure
Lohr shall not be liable or responsible to the other party for damages incurred by User for any delay or failure by Lohr in performing an obligation pursuant to this Agreement to the extent such failure is caused by (a) death or illness, (b) flood, rain, snow or other weather conditions, (c) governmental action, (d) slowdowns, strike or other labor disturbances, (e) riot, (f) terrorism, (g) unavailability of utilities or other essential services, (h) war, whether or not war is actually declared, or (i) other events or occurrences beyond the reasonable control of Lohr, so long as Lohr promptly notifies User of, and uses commercially reasonable efforts to overcome as soon as reasonably practicable, such events or occurrences.
18. Third-Party Beneficiaries
There are no third-party beneficiaries of this Agreement, and no provision of this Agreement can be enforced or relied upon by any third party.
19. Miscellaneous
This Agreement (a) inures to the benefit of, and is binding upon, User and Lohr and each of User’s and Lohr’s successors and assignees, except that User may not assign any of User’s rights or obligations under this Agreement without first obtaining the written consent of Lohr, and (b) constitutes the entire agreement between User and Lohr with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement, and supersedes all prior oral and written proposals, representations, understandings and agreements. Any attempt by User to assign to a third party any right or remedy hereunder without Lohr’s prior written consent will be null and void, and of no effect. Lohr may, in its sole discretion, assign or otherwise transfer this Agreement to a third party. If there is any conflict or inconsistency between any provision of this Agreement and any provision contained on the Site (other than the Privacy Policy), the former will control.
User represents and warrants to Lohr that User (1) has carefully read this Agreement, (2) is entering into this Agreement on behalf of User, and if applicable, User’s employer, and (3) has sufficient capacity to enter into this Agreement and bind User and, if applicable, such employer.
