or substantially all of its assets, stock sale or otherwise) to the business
of either party, and written notice will be provided of such assignment or transfer.
7.4 The failure of either party to enforce any provision of this Agreement will
not constitute a waiver of the party's rights to subsequently enforce the provision.

jurisdiction to be illegal, void or unenforceable, all other provisions of this
Agreement shall not be affected and shall remain in full force and effect.
