respect to the IIA Funded Technology that is covered by such IIA approval will automatically be a Use license, but subject to any limitations imposed by such IIA approval (including any limitations the IIA may impose on which Affiliates of the
Parties the right to Use may extend to), without further action of the Parties. A Party that wishes to expand the license pursuant to this Section 4.2, shall be liable for any and all costs and expenses in relation thereto, including any

otherwise with its representatives that such representatives comply with the provisions of this Section 5.3. The Receiving Party shall promptly notify the Disclosing Party in the event that the Receiving Party learns of any unauthorized use or

invalid, void or unenforceable, will remain in full force and effect and will in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated thereby. Upon such determination, the Parties will negotiate in good faith in an effort to agree upon such a suitable and
equitable provision to effect, as closely as possible, the original intent of the Parties.

 8.10    Waivers of Default; Remedies Cumulative. Waiver by a
Party of any default by another Party of any provision of this Agreement will not be deemed a waiver by the waiving Party of any subsequent or other default, nor will it prejudice the rights of another Party. No failure or delay by a Party in
exercising any right, power or privilege under this Agreement will operate as a waiver thereof, nor will a single or partial exercise thereof prejudice any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. All
rights and remedies existing under this Agreement are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies otherwise available. 

8.11    Amendments. No provisions of this Agreement may be waived, amended, supplemented or modified, unless such
