Participant acknowledges that Company cannot guarantee any results for Services as such outcomes are based on subjective factors that cannot be controlled by Company.
6. ACTS OF GOD
The Company is not liable for failure or delay in performance of the Company’s obligations under this Agreement if such failure or delay in performance is as a result of causes and/or circumstances beyond the Company’s reasonable control and without its fault or negligence, including but not limited to Internet outages, accident, illness, Acts of God (including fire, flood, earthquake, storm, hurricane, or other natural disaster) or of the Public Enemy, acts of war, acts of the government in its sovereign capacity, fires, floods, epidemics, quarantine restrictions, unusually severe weather, terrorist activities, nationalization, government sanction, blockage, embargo, labor dispute, strike, lockout or interruption or failure of electricity or telephone service. Should any such occurrence impede or delay travel and execution of any obligation under this Agreement, every reasonable effort will be made by the Company to mitigate, modify or alter this Agreement as to meet the stated and agreed upon obligations. The Company is not entitled to terminate this Agreement under Paragraph 3 (Stint) in such circumstances, except by mutual consent and agreement in writing pursuant to the Force Majeure provisions. If the Company asserts Force Majeure as an excuse for failure to perform the party’s obligation, then the Company must prove that it took reasonable steps to minimize delay or damages caused by foreseeable events, that the Company substantially fulfilled all non-excused obligations, and that the Participant was timely notified of the likelihood or actual occurrence of an event described in in this Paragraph 10. Should Force Majeure render the need for Company’s services null and void, Participant agrees to terminate the contract amicably and bear their own expenses incurred to date unless otherwise indicated or specified.
