11.2 EquiBreed may from time to time amend these Terms of Trade by giving the Customer notice in writing. Such notice in writing shall constitute authorisation for the purposes of clause 11.1.

11.3 The Customer will not assign or otherwise transfer or encumber its rights or obligations under these Terms except with the prior written consent of EquiBreed.

11.4 No waiver of any provision of these Terms will serve as a waiver of any other provision of these Terms nor as a continuing waiver of such provision and EquiBreed will not have waived or deemed to have waived any provision of these Terms unless such waiver is in writing and executed by EquiBreed.

11.5 Should any part or provision of these Terms be held unenforceable or in conflict with the applicable laws or regulations of any jurisdiction, the invalid or unenforceable part or provision will be replaced with a provision which accomplishes, to such extent as possible, the original business purpose of the part or provision in a valid and enforceable manner, and the remaining of the Agreement will remain binding on the parties.
