Upon receipt of any termination notice from Amdocs, Subcontractor shall, if so requested by Amdocs, immediately cease performing work and incurring costs in connection with the applicable Order. All notices of intention to terminate this Agreement or any Order shall be provided in writing by the terminating Party to the other Party and shall set forth the effective date of Termination.  In the event of termination, the provisions of this Agreement that by their nature are intended to survive this Agreement shall survive.
 
23.
GOVERNING LAW AND DISPUTE RESOLUTION
 
23.1.
The validity, performance, construction and effect of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of Texas, without giving effect to its choice-of-law rules.  In any litigation arising out of this Agreement, and to the fullest extent permitted by Law, the Parties hereby irrevocably agree, submit and waive objection to jurisdiction and venue in, the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, provided that in any litigation arising out of this Agreement in which AT&T is a party, and to the fullest extent permitted by Law, the Parties hereby irrevocably agree, submit and waive objection to jurisdiction and venue in, the United States District Court for the Central District of Texas and the District Courts of the State of Texas, Bexar County.
 
31

 
23.2.
The Parties will use their best efforts to resolve any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement or an Order through good faith negotiations during a period not to exceed [**] days.
 
23.3.
Arbitration
 
23.3.1.
Except for claims arising out of the breach of a Party’s obligations under Article 15, any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or any breach thereof, which cannot be resolved using the procedures set forth above in Section 23.2, shall be finally resolved under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association then in effect; provided, however, that without limiting any rights or remedies under this Agreement, at law, or in equity a Party may have because of an improper termination of this Agreement by the other Party, nothing contained in this Agreement shall limit either Party’s right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Article 22. Subject to the foregoing, the Parties shall escalate arbitration proceedings so that any dispute relating to Section 22.1 is resolved within any applicable cure period specified in Section 22.1.
 
23.3.2.
The Arbitration shall take place in New York City, New York and shall apply the law of the State of Texas without regard to its choice of law provisions.  The decision of the arbitrator shall be final and binding and judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.  The arbitrator shall be instructed to state the reasons for its decisions in writing, including findings of fact and law.  The arbitrator shall be bound by the warranties, limitations of liability and other provisions of this Agreement.  Except with respect to the provisions of this Agreement that provide for injunctive relief rights, such arbitration shall be a precondition to any application by either Party to any court of competent jurisdiction.
 
23.3.3.
Within [**] days after delivery of written notice (“Notice of Dispute”) by one Party to the other in accordance with this Section, the Parties each shall use good faith efforts to mutually agree upon one (1) arbitrator.  If the Parties are not able to agree upon one (1) arbitrator within such period of time, then an arbitrator will be chosen in accordance of the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association who has at no time ever represented or acted on behalf of either of the Parties, and is not otherwise affiliated with or interested in either of the Parties.
 
23.3.4.
The arbitrator selected pursuant to this Section shall be a practicing attorney with at least five (5) years’ experience in technology law applicable to the Services.  Any such appointment shall be binding upon the Parties.  The Parties shall use best efforts to set the arbitration within [**] days after selection of the arbitrator, but in no event shall the arbitration be set more than [**] days after selection of the arbitrator.  Discovery as permitted by the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure then in effect will be allowed in connection with arbitration to the extent consistent with the purpose of the arbitration and as allowed by the arbitrator.  The decision or award of the arbitrator shall be rendered within [**] days after the conclusion of the hearing, shall be in writing, shall set forth the basis therefor, and shall be final, binding and nonappealable upon the Parties and may be enforced and executed upon in any court having jurisdiction over the Party against whom the enforcement of such decision or award is sought.  Each Party shall bear its own arbitration costs and expenses and all other costs and expenses of the arbitration shall be divided equally between the Parties; provided, however, the arbitrator may modify the allocation of fees, costs and expenses in the award in those cases where fairness dictates other than such allocation between the Parties.
 
32

 
23.4.
Continued Performance
 
23.4.1.
General:  Each Party agrees that it shall, unless otherwise directed by the other Party, continue performing its obligations under this Agreement while any dispute is being resolved; provided that this provision shall not operate or be construed as extending the term of this Agreement.   For purposes of clarification, AT&T Data may not be withheld by Subcontractor pending the resolution of any dispute.
 
23.4.2.
Non-Interruption of Service:  Subcontractor acknowledges and agrees that any interruption to the Service will cause irreparable harm to AT&T, in which case an adequate remedy at law would not be available.  Subcontractor expressly acknowledges and agrees that, pending resolution of any dispute or controversy, it will not deny, withdraw, or restrict Subcontractor’s provision of the Services to AT&T under this Agreement, except as specifically and expressly agreed in writing by AT&T and Subcontractor.  Subcontractor further agrees as follows:
 
(a)
In the event of any material breach by Subcontractor (or attempt or threat of breach) of any of the terms of this Agreement that could reasonably be expected to cause an interruption to the Services or compromise of rights of AT&T under this Agreement (including provision of access to computers or other files containing AT&T Data in accordance with this Agreement), Amdocs may proceed directly to court without going through any otherwise applicable procedures or waiting periods set forth in Article 23.  If a court of competent jurisdiction should find that Subcontractor has breached (or attempted or threatened to breach) any such obligations, Subcontractor agrees that without any additional findings of irreparable injury or other conditions to injunctive relief, it shall not oppose the entry of an appropriate order compelling performance by Subcontractor and restraining it from any further breaches (or attempted or threatened breaches).
 
(b)
Subcontractor shall not intentionally interrupt the Services or provide reduced levels of Service quality or support.
 
(c)
To the extent that Subcontractor suspends the availability of the Services or any portion of the Services because it is required to do so by a governmental authority of competent jurisdiction (“Government Requirement”), Subcontractor shall promptly use all reasonable efforts to comply with any such Government Requirement to the extent necessary to fully restore the Services.
 
24.
FORCE MAJEURE
 
24.1.
A Party is excused from performing its obligations under this Agreement or any Order if, to the extent that, and for so long as:
 
i.
such Party’s performance is prevented or delayed by an act or event (other than economic hardship, changes in market conditions or insufficiency of funds) that is beyond its reasonable control and could not have been prevented or avoided by its exercise of due diligence; and
ii.
such Party gives written notice to the other Party, as soon as practicable under the circumstances, of the act or event that so prevents such Party from performing its obligations.

By way of illustration, and not by way of limitation, acts or events that may prevent or delay performance (as contemplated by this Section) include:  acts of God or the public enemy, acts of civil or military authority, terrorists acts, embargoes, epidemics, war, riots, insurrections, fires, explosions, earthquakes, floods, and labor disputes (even if AT&T is involved in a labor dispute). If Subcontractor is the Party whose performance is prevented or delayed, and if such event of Force Majeure continues for a period of [**] days or more, at any point thereafter during the pendency of such Force Majeure event, Amdocs may elect to:

i.
Terminate, in whole or in part, the affected Orders, without any liability to Subcontractor,  or
ii.
Suspend the affected Orders or any part thereof for the duration  of the delay; and (at Amdocs’ option) obtain Material and Services elsewhere and deduct from any commitment under such Order the quantity of the Material and Services obtained elsewhere or for which commitments have been made elsewhere; and resume performance under this Agreement or such Order when Subcontractor resumes its performance; and extend any affected Delivery Date or performance date up to the length of time Subcontractor’s performance was delayed or prevented.
 
33

 
24.2.
Upon the occurrence of a force majeure event, Subcontractor shall implement promptly, as appropriate, its disaster recovery plan and provide disaster recovery services, and shall periodically update and test such disaster recovery plan, as described in Exhibit F. The occurrence of a force majeure event shall not relieve Subcontractor of its obligation to implement its disaster recovery plan and provide disaster recovery services.
 
24.3.
If Subcontractor fails to provide Services in accordance with this Agreement due to the occurrence of a force majeure event, all amounts payable to Subcontractor hereunder shall be equitably adjusted in a manner such that Amdocs is not required to pay any amounts for Services that it is not receiving from Subcontractor.
 
24.4.
Without limiting Subcontractor’s obligations under this Agreement, whenever a force majeure event or disaster causes Subcontractor to allocate limited resources between or among Subcontractor’s customers and Affiliates, Amdocs shall receive at least the same treatment as comparable Subcontractor customers.
 
25.
GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
 
25.1.
Subcontractor will not induce or attempt to induce AT&T, either directly or indirectly, to cease doing business with Amdocs.  In addition, Subcontractor agrees that during the term of this Agreement, Subcontractor will not, directly or indirectly, provide services to AT&T that would involve Amdocs’s software or applications.
 
25.2.
Any Amdocs Affiliates shall be entitled to place Orders with Subcontractor pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however, Amdocs shall remain primarily liable for any Orders placed on behalf of one or more Amdocs Affiliates.  In such event, the references in this Agreement to Amdocs shall be deemed to be references to the applicable Amdocs Affiliate.
 
25.3.
Any notice, demand or communication which under the terms of this Agreement or otherwise must or may be given or made by either Party shall be in writing and shall be given or made by certified or registered air mail, return receipt requested, facsimile (electronic confirmation required) or any delivery services requiring signature of receipt, addressed to the respective Parties as set forth on the first page of this Agreement or other addresses of which a Party may notify the other Party in writing.  Subcontractor shall concurrently transmit to Amdocs, in the same manner transmitted to or received from AT&T, any request, permission, approval, claim, or other notice which is transmitted between Subcontractor and AT&T and made in connection to this Agreement.
 
25.4.
Subcontractor’s failure to perform its responsibilities under this Agreement or to meet the Service Levels shall be excused if and to the extent such Subcontractor non-performance is caused by the act or omission of Amdocs (each a “Savings Event”), but only if (i) Subcontractor provides prompt and reasonable notification (including by e-mail) to Amdocs of such act or omission and Subcontractor’s inability to perform under such circumstances, (ii) Subcontractor provides Amdocs with a reasonable opportunity to correct such act or omission and thereby avoid such Subcontractor non-performance, and (iii) Subcontractor uses commercially reasonable efforts to perform notwithstanding such act or omission. Without limiting the foregoing, to the extent Amdocs reasonably believes that a Savings Event has occurred it shall use commercially reasonable efforts to correct such Savings Event and avoid such Subcontractor non-performance.
 
34

 
25.5.
This Agreement, including the NDA and all Orders and Exhibits hereto, is the complete and exclusive statement regarding the subject matter hereof and supersedes any prior or contemporaneous oral or written agreement, understanding, communication or representation with regard to the subject matter hereof.  This Agreement and any Order may only be modified by a written instrument signed by the authorized representatives of the Parties.
 
25.6.
If any provision of this Agreement is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not invalidate or render unenforceable the entire Agreement, but rather the entire Agreement shall be construed as if not containing the particular invalid or unenforceable provision and the rights and obligations of the Parties shall be construed and enforced accordingly.  In addition, the parties hereby agree to cooperate to replace the invalid or unenforceable provision(s) with valid and enforceable provision(s) which will achieve the same result (to the maximum legal extent) as the provision(s) determined to be invalid or unenforceable.
 
25.7.
No waiver of rights arising under this Agreement or Orders shall be effective unless in writing and signed by the party against whom such waiver is sought to be enforced.  No failure or delay by either party in exercising any right, power or remedy under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver of any such right, power or remedy and/or prejudice any rights of such party.
 
25.8.
Headings used in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not be used for interpretation purposes.
 
25.9.
Obligations under this Agreement, which by their nature would continue beyond the expiration or ending in any other way of this Agreement shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement.
 
25.10.
Neither Party shall disclose or publicly refer to the other party or the existence of this Agreement in any advertising or promotional materials, business plans, investment memoranda, or announcements without the other party’s specific, written consent, except that disclosure to AT&T shall be permitted.
 
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties hereto have entered into this Agreement as of the date first stated above.
