11.3 The Agreement is the complete and exclusive statement of the mutual understanding of the parties and supersedes and cancels all previous written and oral agreements, communications and other understandings relating to the subject matter of the Agreement.
11.4 The failure of either party to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision, and no waiver by either party of any breach or default by the other party shall be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding or subsequent breach or default.
11.5 If any provision of the Agreement is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision will be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that the Agreement will otherwise remain in full force and effect and enforceable.
11.6 The Agreement is not assignable, transferable or sublicensable by you except with Sumdata prior written consent. Sumdata may transfer and assign any of its rights and obligations under the Agreement without consent.

11.9 The Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of California without regard to conflict of laws provisions. Any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to the Agreement or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity thereof shall be determined by arbitration in California before a single arbitrator. The arbitration shall be administered by JAMS pursuant to its Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The parties shall maintain the confidential nature of the arbitration proceeding and the award, including the hearing, unless otherwise required by law or judicial decision. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each party shall have the right to institute an action in a court of proper jurisdiction for injunctive or other equitable relief pending a final decision by the arbitrator.
