USE OF ELECTRONIC MEDIA a. Copies of Documents that may be relied upon by the CLIENT are limited to the printed copies (also known as hard copies) that are signed or sealed by SRF. Files in electronic media format of text, data, graphics, or of other types that are furnished by SRF to the CLIENT are only for convenience of the CLIENT. Any conclusion or information obtained or derived from such electronic files will be at the user's sole risk. b. When transferring documents in electronic media format, SRF makes no representations as to long-term compatibility, usability, or readability of documents resulting from the use of software application packages, operating systems, or computer hardware differing from those used by SRF at the beginning of this Assignment. c. If there is a discrepancy between the electronic files and the hard copies, the hard copies govern. d. Because data stored in electronic media format can deteriorate or be modified inadvertently or otherwise without authorization of this data's creator, the party receiving electronic files agrees that it will perform acceptance tests or procedures within sixty (60) days, after which the receiving party shall be deemed to have accepted the data thus transferred. Any errors detected within the sixty (60) day acceptance period will be corrected by the party delivering the electronic files. SRF shall not be responsible to maintain documents stored in electronic media format after acceptance by the CLIENT. 10.

SEVERABILITY AND WAIVER OF PROVISIONS Any provisions or part of the Agreement held to be void or unenforceable under any laws or regulations shall be deemed stricken, and all remaining provisions shall continue to be valid and binding upon the CLIENT and SRF, who agree that the Agreement shall be reformed to replace such stricken provision or part thereof with a valid and enforceable provision that comes as close as possible to expressing the intention of the stricken provision. Non -enforcement of any provision by either party shall not constitute a waiver of that provision, nor shall it affect the enforceability of that provision or of the remainder of this Agreement. 14.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION If negotiation in good faith fails to resolve a dispute within the thirty (30) days of notice of the dispute, or time period specified by applicable law, then the parties agree that each dispute, claim or controversy arising from or related to this Agreement or the relationships which result from this Agreement shall be subject to mediation as a condition precedent to initiating legal or equitable actions by either party. Unless the parties agree otherwise, the mediation shall be in accordance with the Commercial Mediation Procedures of the American Arbitration Association then currently in effect. A request for mediation shall be filed in writing with the American Arbitration Association and the other party. No legal or equitable action may be instituted for a period of ninety (90) days from the filing of the request for mediation unless a longer period of time is provided by agreement of the parties. Cost of mediation shall be shared equally between the parties. Mediation shall be held in a location mutually agreed upon by the parties. The parties shall memorialize any agreement resulting from the mediation in a mediated settlement agreement, which agreement shall be enforceable as a settlement in any court having jurisdiction thereof. 16. CONTROLLING LAW This Agreement is to be governed by the law of the principal place of business of SRF. 17. SITE SAFETY SRF shall not at any time supervise, direct, control or have authority over or charge of, nor be responsible for, the construction means, methods, techniques, sequences or procedures, or for safety and security precautions and programs in connection with the work performed by any Contractor for the Project, nor for any failure of any Contractor to comply with laws and regulations applicable to such Contractor's work, since these are solely the Contractor's rights and responsibilities.
