11. Miscellaneous
(a) Entire Agreement. The Amendment and the Contract (including all associated Exhibits and Tables) constitutes the entire understanding and agreement between the Parties with respect to the amendment of the contract and may not be contradicted by evidence of prior, contemporaneous, or unwritten oral agreements of the Parties. There are no subsequent oral agreements between the Parties.
(b) Counterparts. The Amendment may be executed in as many counterparts as desired by the Parties, any one of which shall have the force and effect of any original but all of which together shall constitute the same instrument. The Amendment may also be executed by exchange of executed copies via email or other electronic means, in which case – but not as a condition to the validity of the Amendment – each Party shall subsequently send the other Party by mail the original executed copy. A Party's signature transmitted by email or similar electronic means shall be considered an "original" signature for purposes of the Amendment.
(c) Headings. The headings or captions are for convenient reference only and have no force or effect or legal meaning in the construction or enforcement of the Amendment.
(d) Waiver and Severability. If any section or provision of the Amendment or any exhibit or rider hereto is held by any court or other competent authority or be illegal, unenforceable or invalid, the remaining terms, provisions, rights and obligations of the Amendment shall not be affected. The failure of a Party hereunder to assert a right or enforce an obligation of the other Party shall not be deemed a waiver of such right or obligation. In no event shall any waiver by either Party of any default under the Amendment operate as a waiver of any further default.
(e) References to "Contract". References to "Contract" in the Contract shall be deemed to mean the Contract as amended by the Amendment.
(f) Applicable Law/Venue. The Amendment shall be construed in accordance with, and all disputes arising hereunder shall be determined in accordance with, the law of the State of Hawaii, U.S.A. Hawaii shall be the exclusive venue for any litigation arising hereunder. Each Party agrees and consents that any dispute, litigation, action or proceeding arising out of the Amendment, however defined, shall be brought exclusively in the State of Hawaii in a court of competent jurisdiction.
12. Other Terms Unchanged.

        All of the terms and conditions of the Contract that are not altered, amended or replaced by the provisions of the Amendment shall remain in full force and effect.
