(2) Acceptance of an invitation to an Electronic Workspace is taken to be an agreement for clause 11.1(1).

Operation of Agreement This Agreement will be effective and binding immediately upon its execution, but, anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, this Agreement will not be operative unless and until a Change in Control occurs. Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control at any time during the Term, without further action, this Agreement shall become immediately operative.
General Clauses 29.1 This Deed of Sale constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties as to the subject matter hereof and no agreement, representation or warranty between the Parties other than those set out herein are binding on the Parties.
29.2 No extension of time, waiver, indulgence or suspension of any of the provisions of this agreement, which any Party hereto may have given, shall be binding unless recorded in a written document signed by all Parties.
29.3 No variation or alteration or cancellation of this Deed of Sale or any of the terms hereof, shall be of any force or effect, unless in writing and signed by the Parties hereto.
29.4 The Parties signing this document confirm that they have read and understood all of the terms and conditions contained herein and agree that they are bound hereto.
29.5 The Seller and the Purchaser warrants that they are duly authorised to sign acceptance of the Deed of Sale.
29.6 The agreements and undertaking of parties contained in this agreement shall each be construed as an agreement and undertaking independent of any other provision of this agreement. The parties hereby expressly agree that it is not the intention of any party to violate any public policy, statutory or common law, and that if any sentence, paragraph, clause or combination of the same is in violation of the law of the Republic of South Africa, such sentence, paragraph, clause or combination of the same alone shall be void in the jurisdiction where it is unlawful, and the remainder of such clause and this agreement shall remain binding upon the parties hereto. The parties further acknowledge that it is their intention that the provisions of this agreement be binding only to the extent that they may be lawful under existing applicable law of the Republic of South Africa, and in the event that any provision hereof is determined to be overly broad or unenforceable, the parties hereto agree to the modification of such provisions by their attorneys to the minimum extent required to make them valid and enforceable. SIGNED at on this the day of 20 . AS WITNESS:
Severability of Clauses If any part of this Agreement is declared or held to be invalid for any reason, such invalidity will not affect the validity of the remainder which will continue in full force and effect and be construed as if this Agreement had been executed without the invalid portion, and it is hereby declared the intention of the parties that this Agreement would have been executed without reference to any portion which may, for any reason, be hereafter declared or held to be invalid.
Operation of the Agreement The Parties recognize that it is impractical in this Agreement to provide for every contingency which may arise during the life of the Agreement, and the Parties hereby agree that it is their intention that this Agreement shall operate fairly as between them, and without detriment to the interest of either of them, and that, if during the term of this Agreement either Party believes that this Agreement is operating unfairly, the Parties will use their best efforts to agree on such action as may be necessary to remove the cause or causes of such unfairness, but failure to agree on any action pursuant to this Clause 8.2 shall not give rise to a dispute subject to arbitration in accordance with Clause 9 hereof.
Construction of Agreement The parties mutually acknowledge that they and their attorneys have participated in the preparation and negotiation of this Agreement. In cases of uncertainty this Agreement shall be construed without regard to which of the parties caused the uncertainty to exist.
Operation of Lift 3.1 The mode of operation of the passenger/materials lift shall be at the discretion of Management, but there shall be landings at intervals of not more than four (4) storey levels. Subject to sub-clause 3.3, an employee would not be required to walk either up or down more than two (2) floors within the range of the lift, or more than four (4) floors within the range of the lift.
3.2 When the building has risen so that the formwork exceeds floors above the lift travel, the lift travel shall be extended.
3.3 If mechanical or power failure puts the passengers/materials lift out of action, Management must endeavour to correct the failure as soon as possible and have the passengers/materials lift back in use. During such temporary stoppage of the passengers/ materials lift, the employees are expected to walk to their place of work to a maximum of four (4) levels to work in their respective classification, and no industrial action or dispute should take place.
3.4 When lifts are also used to carry materials, preference must be given to the transporting of employees at the starting, finishing and lunch times. Starting times of various Trades may be staggered by agreement to avoid lift congestion at starting and finishing times.
3.5 Should a crane or cranes on a building not be able to operate (eg., because of wind or mechanical failure), employees will continue to work to a maximum of four (4) levels above the range of the lift, provided that the appropriate emergency service is satisfied that it is capable of being able to provide first aid attendance, and removal if necessary, to/of any employee on any section of the project without the use of the crane/s.
Construction of the Agreement The Agreement sets forth the entire understanding between two sophisticated business entities with legal counsel as to its subject and supersedes all prior agreements, conditions, warranties, representations, arrangements and communications, including purchase orders issued by Client, whether oral or written, and whether with or by Accenture, any of its affiliates, or any of their employees, officers, directors, agents or shareholders. Each party acknowledges that it entered into the Agreement solely based on the agreements and representations contained herein, and has not relied upon any representations, warranties, promises, or inducements of any kind, whether oral or written, and from any source. If a court of competent jurisdiction finds any term of the Agreement to be invalid, illegal or otherwise unenforceable, such term or provision will not affect the other terms of this Agreement and will be deemed modified to the extent necessary, in the court’s opinion, to render such term enforceable while preserving to the fullest extent permissible the intent and agreements of the parties set forth in this Agreement. No waiver or modification of any provision of the Agreement will be effective unless it is in writing and signed by the party against which it is sought to be enforced. The delay or failure by either party to exercise or enforce any of its rights under this Agreement is not a waiver of that party’s right to later enforce those rights, nor will any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further exercise of these rights or any other right. There are no third-party beneficiaries to the Agreement. In the event of a conflict between these GTC and an Order Form, the Order Form controls for purposes of that Order Form only.
