OTHER PROVISIONS

No Liability

5.1 In no event will the Company be liable for any claims made by the Consultant for any special, indirect, incidental, or consequential damages, whether for negligence or breach of contract, including without limitation, loss of business opportunities, profits or revenues, and whether or not the possibility of such damages or loss of opportunities, profits or revenues has been disclosed by the Consultant in advance or could have been reasonably foreseen by the Company.

Taxes

5.2 The Consultant represents, warrants and covenants that the Consultant is acting and will act only as an independent contractor and not as an employee of the Company, and acknowledges that in so acting, the Consultant will not be entitled to any employee-like benefits, or any direct or indirect compensation other than that expressly set out in this Agreement. The Consultant will, as an independent contractor, collect and/or remit as required, all amounts, and will register with any workers’ compensation entities or other governmental bodies, and deal with all tax and other requirements, and satisfy all applicable compliance requirements, as required or permitted under law by all municipal, provincial or federal governments. Without affecting the Consultant’s other obligations in this §5.2, the Consultant will provide proof acceptable to the Company, acting reasonably, of the Consultant’s registrations, remittances or other tax or other compliance with applicable law, upon each such registration or remittance or upon request by the Company. The Consultant agrees that the Company will not be responsible for registering under any workers’ compensation legislation or for withholding or remitting any amounts for income taxes, Canada Pension Plan, Employment Insurance, or other deductions that would be required in an employment relationship. The Consultant will promptly indemnify the Company for any liability that the Company incurs as a result of not making such registrations or remittances or other relevant compliance. In the event that the Canada Revenue Agency determines that remuneration paid by the Company for the Services was employment income to the Consultant, and further determines that the Company was obligated to withhold taxes at source, the Consultant shall be liable to indemnify the Company for any and all costs or assessment thereby occasioned.

Survival

5.3 All obligations and rights that, by their nature, are intended to survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement (the “Surviving Terms”), will survive the actual or purported termination or expiration, for any reason, of the Agreement.
