No change, waiver, or discharge hereof shall be valid unless in writing and signed by an authorized representative of the Party against which such change, waiver, or discharge is sought to be enforced.

12.5. Controlling law and severability.

No term or provision hereof will be considered waived, and no breach excused, unless such waiver is in writing signed on behalf of the party against whom the waiver is asserted.

This Agreement may be executed in two (2) or more counterparts, all of which, taken together, shall be regarded as one and the same instrument.  Unless otherwise prohibited by any applicable laws or regulations, this Agreement may be signed electronically, and such electronic signature shall be deemed, and shall have the same legal force and effect as, an original signature.  An electronic copy thereof shall be deemed and shall have the same legal force and effect as an original document.
