21.1 | If any of the events referred to in Clauses 19.1.2 to 19.1.6 inclusive (each an “Insolvency Event”) occur in respect of Senetek, Senetek will immediately notify Ardana and, as at the date and/or time of occurrence of the relevant Insolvency Event, to the extent permitted by law Ardana will have the right, at Ardana’s sole discretion, to purchase from Senetek, at fair market value (“Fair Market Value”), the Patents, the Trade Marks, the Proprietary Information and/or the rights in and to the Xxxxxxx Packaging in the Territories and such of the Additional Territories as have not then been licensed to Third Parties. In the absence of agreement as to the Fair Market Value within twenty one (21) days following the Insolvency Event, Ardana may require the Fair Market Value to be determined by an expert agreed between the Parties or, in the absence of agreement, nominated by the then chairman of the Association of the British Pharmaceutical Industry (ABPI). Such expert will act as an expert and not as an arbitrator and his decision shall be final and binding save in the case of manifest error. |

23. FORCE MAJEURE
23.1 | Any delays in or failure of performance by either Party under this Agreement will not be considered a breach of this Agreement if and to the extent that such delay or failure is caused by occurrences beyond the reasonable control of that Party including, but not limited to acts of God; acts, regulations and laws of any government; strikes or other concerted acts of workers; fire; floods; explosions; riots; wars; rebellion; and sabotage; and any time for performance hereunder will be extended by the actual time of delay caused by any such occurrence. |

24. GENERAL
24.1 | Neither Party shall be entitled to assign, transfer or sub-contract, whether in whole or in part, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, other than as expressly set out in this Agreement, without the prior written consent of the other Party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. |
24.2 | No failure or delay by either Party in exercising any right or remedy under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver of such right or remedy nor shall any single or partial exercise or waiver of any such right or remedy preclude its further exercise or the exercise of any other right or remedy. |
24.3 | This Agreement constitutes the entire understanding between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes and replaces all prior agreements, understandings, representations, writings and discussions between the Parties whether written or oral in relation hereto. Nothing in this Agreement shall, however, operate to limit or exclude any liability for fraudulent misrepresentations. |
24.4 | If any of the provisions of this Agreement are or become invalid, or are ruled illegal by any court of competent jurisdiction, or are deemed unenforceable under then current applicable law from time to time in effect during the period of this Agreement, it is the Parties’ intention that the remainder of this Agreement will not be affected thereby provided that the parties’ rights under this Agreement are not materially altered. It is further the Parties’ intention that in lieu of each such provision which is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, there will be substituted or added as part of this Agreement a valid, legal and enforceable provision which in effect will be as similar as possible to the effect of the original invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision. |
25. APPLICABLE LAW
This Agreement will be governed by and construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of England and the parties hereby agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the English courts.
