Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, UPS may in its sole discretion request that Developer prevent access to and use of the Interfaces, any Authorized Vendor Product, and any Impacted Pages. Developer shall timely comply with any such request by UPS until UPS has (x) rescinded such request, and (y) provided Developer a written statement that such Interface(s) and/or Impacted Pages are compatible with the UPS Systems and comply with the requirements of this Agreement (including the Integration Requirements) and the Technical Documentation.

UPS is responsible for all income or profit taxes (including interest and penalties) arising from the provision of the UPS Access Services under this Agreement.

17. General.
a. Dispute Resolution. Except for the right of either party hereto to apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for an injunction or other interim or equitable relief or provisional remedies available under Applicable Law to preserve the status quo pending the selection and confirmation of the arbitrators, or to prevent irreparable harm related to Developer’s use of the UPS Materials, Interfaces, or Security Elements in breach of this Agreement, and to enforce the award of the arbitrators, any controversy or Claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the breach thereof, will be settled exclusively by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association’s International Centre for Dispute Resolution in New York City, New York, and judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrators may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The parties hereby consent to such venue and waive and agree not to plead or claim that any such action or proceeding has been brought in an inconvenient forum. The award of the arbitrators will be final and binding, will be the sole and exclusive remedy between the parties regarding such dispute, and the parties explicitly waive request for review under Article V Section 1 of the New York Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards. Arbitration will be conducted by a panel of three members, one member selected by UPS, one member selected by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, and the third member, who will be chairman, selected by agreement between the other two members. The arbitrators will be attorneys with a background or training in technology law, computer science, or marketing of technology industry products. All arbitration proceedings will be conducted in the English language. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 17(a), the arbitrator(s) appointed to resolve disputes may not award or rule on rescission, reformation, or other modification of this Agreement, or on issues of the ownership, validity, or registration of any intellectual property (including trademarks, service marks, trade names, proprietary information and know-how, and rights in content, materials, software and other technology) belonging to UPS or its Affiliates. The foregoing arbitration agreement between the parties and any questions regarding its validity and enforceability shall be exclusively governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, United States of America, exclusive of conflict or choice of law rules.
b. Governing Law and Language. This Agreement shall be construed, governed, interpreted by, and applied in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, United States of America, excluding (i) its conflicts of laws principles; (ii) the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods; (iii) the 1974 Convention on the Limitation Period in the International Sale of Goods; and (iv) the Protocol amending the 1974 Convention, done at Vienna April 11, 1980. The parties declare that they have required that this Agreement and all documents related hereto, either present or future, be drawn up in the English language only. To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law and consistent with valid entry into a binding agreement, the controlling language of this Agreement is English, and the parties agree that any translation of this Agreement has been provided solely for convenience. Les parties aux présentes ont exigé que la présente convention ainsi que tous les documents y afferents (actuels ou futurs) soient rédigés en langue anglaise. Dans toute la mesure permise par la loi, toute traduction de cette convention ne crée aucun lien contractuel entre les parties et est fournie à des fins d’information seulement. To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, all correspondence and communications between Developer and UPS under this Agreement will be in the English language.
c. Waiver. UPS’s failure or delay to insist upon or enforce strict performance of any provision of this Agreement or right under law shall not be construed as a waiver of any provision or right, nor will it prevent or restrict the further exercise of the same right or provision.
d. Survival. The following Sections, and any other Sections of this Agreement that by their terms or purpose should survive, shall survive the termination of this Agreement for any reason: Sections 1 (Definitions), 4 (Use of UPS Information), 5 (Testing, Audit, and Compliance), 6 (Ownership), 8 (Confidentiality), 9 (Term and Termination), 13 (Disclaimer of Warranties; No Assurances), 14 (Limitation of Liability), 15 (Indemnification), 16 (Country-Specific Terms), and 17 (General) will survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement for any reason.
e. Assignment; Change of Control. Developer may not assign this Agreement or any of its rights or delegate any of its duties hereunder, by contract or operation of law, without UPS’s prior written consent, which consent may be withheld for any reason or no reason, and any attempt to do so by Developer shall be void. In the event of any assignment of this Agreement with UPS’s prior written consent, such assignment will be binding and inure to the benefit of each of the parties and their respective legal successors and permitted assigns. UPS may assign, delegate, or transfer all or any part of this Agreement or any rights hereunder without the need for any approval or consent from Developer.
| 19 |
f. Independent Parties; No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Nothing in this Agreement or elsewhere shall be construed to make the parties partners, joint venturers, representatives, or agents of each other, nor shall either party, directly, indirectly, in writing or otherwise, so represent to any third person. The parties hereunder are acting in performance of this Agreement as independent contractors engaged in the operation of their own respective businesses, and nothing in this Agreement creates a statutory distributor, dealer, or sales agent contract. Neither party may assume or create any responsibility or obligation on behalf of the other party. Except for members of the UPS Group, no third party will have any right to enforce any of the terms of this Agreement.
g. Severability. If one or more provisions of this Agreement shall be held to be invalid or unenforceable, it is the parties’ intent that such provisions be replaced, reformed, or narrowed so that their original business purpose can be accomplished to the extent permitted by Applicable Law and that the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall not be affected thereby.
h. Force Majeure. UPS shall not be liable or responsible for any delay or failure in performance if such delay or failure is due to causes beyond its reasonable control, including but not limited to, acts of God, work stoppages, orders of government agencies, or acts of war or terrorism.
i. Remedies. Any remedies provided herein are non-exclusive, cumulative, and not in lieu of any other rights or remedies that may be available at law or in equity. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees that UPS would have no adequate remedy at law available to it, and that monetary damages alone would not be an adequate remedy, for Developer’s breach or threatened breach of Sections 2(c) (Access Conditions), 3 (Distribution Conditions and Restrictions), 4 (Use of UPS Information), 5 (Testing, Audit, and Compliance), 6 (Ownership), 8 (Confidentiality), 10 (Publicity and Third-Party Relations), 11 (General Compliance), or 12(b) (Developer Representations and Warranties), and UPS therefore is entitled to specific performance or injunctive relief regarding the performance of Developer’s obligations under such Sections without any requirement of the posting of a bond, in addition to all other available remedies at law or in equity.

Developer will design the Application to direct each Shipper attempting to register as a Program Shipper (i) to link a pre-existing UPS Shipper Number; or (ii) if such proposed Program Shipper has no pre-existing UPS Shipper Number, to sign up for a new UPS Shipper Number at a UPS-designated landing page. To become a Program Shipper, Developer must ensure that (a) the UPS Shipper Number provided by such Program Shipper in accordance with the process described in the preceding sentence is assigned to such proposed Program Shipper’s account within the corresponding Application(s), and (b) the proposed Program ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ has completed the Rate Acknowledgement Process. |
| 2. | Program Shipper Services and Billing Documentation. Developer will design the Application to make available (in a format approved by UPS) to each Program Shipper or set of Program Shippers, as advised by UPS, certain documentation provided by UPS relating to each such Shipper’s use of the Program Shipping Services as may be required under Applicable Law (as determined by UPS in is reasonable discretion). As stated in Section I.1.a above, Program Shippers are UPS customers in addition to Developer customers, and the foregoing requirements pertain to UPS’s legal obligations as relates such Program Shippers under Applicable Law. |

I understand that the rates and services made available under my Company Account will not apply to any PeriShip Shipments. All charges incurred for PeriShip Shipments will be billed by UPS to PeriShip and charged to my organization by PeriShip pursuant to my organization’s agreement with PeriShip. All claims related to PeriShip Shipments (including, without limitation, for loss or damage) remain subject to the terms and conditions governing my Company Account, including without limitation, the UPS Tariff/Terms and Conditions of Service.”
