The Customer must indemnify Evolve and each of its directors, officers, employees, agents, contractors and related bodies corporate (Indemnified Parties) and keep each of them indemnified against any claim made against an Indemnified Party or Loss suffered or incurred by an Indemnified Party which arises from or in respect of:
any breach by the Customer of clause 4(a); or
any negligent or unlawful acts of the Customer or any of its related parties or their respective employees, officers, contractors or representatives or the Authorised Users,
except to the extent the relevant Loss arises as a direct result of any breach of this Agreement by Evolve or any negligent or unlawful act of the Indemnified Party.

21. Taxes

21.1 Indirect Tax
Unless expressly stated otherwise, all fees and other amounts payable by the Customer under or in connection with this Agreement have been calculated without regard to any Indirect Tax. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if Indirect Tax is imposed upon or is payable by Evolve under or in connection with this Agreement, the Customer must pay to Evolve an amount equal to the Indirect Tax upon demand by Evolve.
21.2 Withholding Taxes
If the Customer is required by law to make any deduction or withholding for any Taxes from any payments to Evolve under this Agreement such that Evolve would not receive the full amount of the Fees or other amount payable, the Customer agrees to:
deduct or withhold the amount for Taxes from the payment;
promptly pay the amount deducted to the relevant government authority on time and otherwise in accordance with the relevant law;
provide to Evolve an original receipt, certificate or other evidence of payment of the deducted or withheld amount; and
pay an additional amount to Evolve at the same time as the affected payment is due so that, after making the deduction or withholding and any further deductions or withholdings on the additional amount payable under this clause 21.2(c), Evolve receives an amount equal to the amount it would have received if no deductions or withholdings had been made.

22. General provisions

22.1 Governing law
This Agreement will be governed by and construed and interpreted exclusively under the laws of the State of New South Wales, Australia and the parties submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New South Wales and the Federal Court of Australia.
22.2 Assignment
The Customer may not assign or otherwise deal with any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of Evolve. Evolve may assign, novate or otherwise deal with its rights under this Agreement at any time effective immediately upon Evolve notifying the Customer of the assignment or novation.
22.3 Entire agreement
This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to its subject matter and supersedes all previous communications, representations, inducements, undertakings, agreements or arrangements between the parties or their respective officers, employees or agents.
22.4 Force Majeure
If a party is prevented, hindered or delayed from performing its obligations under this Agreement by a Force Majeure Event (other than any obligations to pay Fees under this Agreement), then as long as that situation continues, that party will be excused from performance of the obligation to the extent it is so prevented, hindered or delayed, and the time for performance of the obligation will be extended accordingly. If a party is affected by a Force Majeure Event it will immediately give the other party a notice of its occurrence and its effect or likely effect, and use all reasonable endeavours to minimise the effect of the Force Majeure Event and to bring it to an end.
22.5 Waiver and variation
This Agreement will not be varied except by a document in writing signed by the parties. No failure to exercise or delay in exercising any right given by or under this Agreement to a party constitutes a waiver and the party may still exercise that right in the future.
22.6 International conventions
The United Nations Convention on the International Sale of Goods (the Vienna Convention) will not apply to this Agreement or the subject matter hereof.
22.7 Severability
If any provision of this Agreement is invalid or not enforceable in accordance with its terms in any jurisdiction, it is to be read down, if possible, so as to be valid and enforceable and will otherwise be capable of being severed to the extent of the invalidity or unenforceability without affecting the remaining provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of that provision in any other jurisdiction.
