-
Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including all schedules and attachments incorporated by reference, sets forth the entire understanding of the parties relating to its subject matter, and all other understandings, written or oral, are superseded. This Agreement will also be deemed to include all policies, procedures, and requirements published by Industrious from time to time, with which Member hereby agrees to comply. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, this Agreement may not be amended except in a writing executed by both parties.
-
Subordination.

Governing Law; Venue. This Agreement is governed by the laws of New York, without giving effect to any conflict of law principle that would result in the laws of any other jurisdiction governing this Agreement. Except that either party may seek equitable relief from any court of competent jurisdiction located in New York County, New York, any dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement—including the breach, termination, and validity of this Agreement, and the arbitrability of any claim— that cannot be resolved amicably by mutual agreement shall be finally settled by confidential and binding arbitration in accordance with the arbitration rules of JAMS then in force by one or more arbitrators appointed in accordance with said rules. The place of arbitration shall be New York County, New York.

No proceeding will be combined with another without the prior
written consent of all parties to all affected proceedings. This class action waiver precludes Industrious and Member from pursuing, participating in, or being represented in any class, consolidated, or representative action regarding any claim against the other.
-
Waivers. Neither party will be deemed by any act or omission to have waived any of its rights or remedies hereunder unless such waiver is in writing and signed by the waiving party, and then only to the extent specifically set forth in writing. No delay or omission by any party in exercising any of said rights or remedies shall operate as a waiver thereof. Further, one or more waivers of any covenant or condition by either party will not be construed as a waiver of a subsequent breach of the same covenant or condition, and the consent or approval by either party to or of any act requiring such consent or approval will not be deemed to render unnecessary future consent or approval to or of any subsequent similar act.
-

-
Force Majeure. Neither party is liable for, and will not be considered in default or breach of this Agreement on account of, any delay or failure to perform as required by this Agreement (with the exception of Member’s obligation to pay any sum due to Industrious hereunder, including without limitation, the Monthly License Fees, which obligation will remain unaffected by the provisions of this paragraph) as a result of any causes or
conditions that are beyond such party’s reasonable control and which such party is unable to overcome by the exercise of reasonable diligence, provided that the affected party will use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly resume normal performance. For the avoidance of doubt, Member’s payment obligations under this Agreement remain unaffected by circumstances beyond Industrious’s reasonable control, including public health crises (such as COVID-19) and public health measures in response thereto.
