6. In the event either Party is unable to perform any of its obligations under the Agreement solely because of natural disaster, actions or decrees of governmental bodies, communication line failure in no way attributable to the impacted Party, or any other unforeseeable events beyond the reasonable control of the Party impacted by such event (hereinafter referred to as a “Force Majeure Event”), the impacted Party will use commercially reasonable efforts to resume performance. Lack of funds shall not be a Force Majeure Event. If the impacted Party’s failure or delay remains uncured for a period of twenty (20) calendar days following written notice of the Force Majeure Event, the other Party may terminate this Agreement without penalty, and, in the case of Customer, shall be entitled to a pro rata refund of any prepaid fees. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Force Majeure Events shall not extend any period of time for the payment of any sums payable by Customer or any period of time for the written exercise of an option or right by either Party.

V. NON-COMPETE

Customer agrees that the launching of a product or service deemed competitive to the Software and/or Fello, with the intention of licensing or selling that product or services to any companies not affiliated with Customer, will be a violation of this Software Licensing Agreement. This determination will be made at the sole discretion of Fello. Customer will be given 7 days to cure. If not resolved to the satisfaction of Fello this will result in termination of Agreement.
