9. Miscellaneous. This Agreement, including its exhibit(s) if any, is the entire agreement between HRC and Medovex concerning the subject of this Agreement and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements between the Parties. Except as this Agreement otherwise permits, this Agreement may be amended only by an instrument in writing signed by both Parties which expressly refers to this Agreement and specifically states that it is intended to amend it. The failure of either Party to enforce at any time any of the provisions of this Agreement will not be construed to be a waiver of such provision or of the right of that Party to subsequently enforce any such provision. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall constitute and original and together which shall constitute one and the same document. Each Party must promptly execute all documents and do all things that another Party from time to time reasonably requests to effect, perfect, or complete this document and all transactions incidental to it. If a clause or part of a clause of this document can be read in a way that makes it illegal, unenforceable or invalid, but can also be read in a way that makes it legal, enforceable and valid, it must be read in the latter way. If any clause or part of a clause is illegal, unenforceable or invalid, that clause or part is to be treated as removed from this document, but the rest of this document is not affected. The fact that a Party fails to do, or delays in doing, something the Party is entitled to do under this document, does not amount to a waiver of any obligation of, or breach of obligation by, another Party. A waiver by a Party is only effective if it is in writing. A written waiver by a Party is only effective in relation to the particular obligation or breach in respect of which it is given. It is not to be taken as an implied waiver of any other obligation or breach or as an implied waiver of that obligation or breach in relation to any other occasion.
