No Agency. Nothing contained herein will be construed as creating any agency, employment 

relationship, partnership, principal-agent or other form of joint enterprise between the 

parties. 

Severability. In the event that any provision of this Agreement will be unenforceable or 

invalid under any applicable law or be so held by applicable court decision, such 

unenforceability or invalidity will not render this Agreement unenforceable or invalid as 

a whole, and, in such event, such provision will be changed and interpreted so as to best 

accomplish the objectives of such unenforceable or invalid provision within the limits of 

applicable law or applicable court decisions. 

Waiver. The failure of either party to require performance by the other party of any 

provision hereof will not affect the full right to require such performance at any time 

thereafter; nor will the waiver by either party of a breach of any provision hereof be 

taken or held to be a waiver of the provision itself. 

Language. This Agreement is in the English language only, which language will be controlling 

in all respects, and all versions of this Agreement in any other language will be for 

accommodation only and will not be binding on you or Intel. All communications and notices 

made or given pursuant to this Agreement, and all documentation and support to be provided, 

unless otherwise noted, will be in the English language.
