9.2 The Affiliate agrees to defend, release, indemnify, and hold the Indemnified Parties harmless from all liabilities, claims and expenses, including attorney’s fees and court costs, for third party claims relating to or arising under this Services Agreement, the service(s) provided by Kine, or his/her/its use of the service(s) provided by Kine; including, without limitation, infringement by him/her/it, or by anyone else using such service(s) Kine provides to the Affiliate, of any intellectual property or other proprietary rights of any person or entity; or from the violation of any of Kine’s operating rules or policies relating to the service(s) provided. When Kine is involved in a third party proceeding related to any matter arising out of or in connection with this Services Agreement, Kine may seek written assurances from the Affiliate in which he/she/it promises to defend, indemnify, and hold Kine and/or any Indemnified Party harmless from the costs and liabilities described in this clause. Such written assurances may include, at Kine’s sole discretion, the posting of a performance bond(s) or other guarantees reasonably calculated to guarantee payment. The Affiliate’s failure to provide such assurances may be considered by Kine to be a breach of this Services Agreement by him/her/it. The terms of this clause will survive any termination or cancellation of this Services Agreement.

10. Waiver

10.1 The failure of the Company to ask for the Affiliate’s performance of any provision hereof shall not affect the full right to require such performance at any time thereafter; nor shall the waiver by the Company of a breach of any provision hereof be taken or held to be a waiver of the provision itself.

11. Enforceability

11.1 In the event that any provision of this Services Agreement shall be unenforceable or invalid under any applicable law or be so held by applicable court decision, such unenforceability or invalidity shall not render this Services Agreement unenforceable or invalid as a whole. The Company will amend or replace such provision with one that is valid and enforceable and which achieves, to the greatest extent permitted by the law, Kine’s original objectives and intent as reflected in the original provision.

12. Assignment and Resale

12.1 Except as otherwise set forth herein, the rights of the Affiliate under this Services Agreement are not assignable or transferable. Any attempt by the Affiliate’s creditors to obtain an interest in the Affiliate’s rights under this Services Agreement, whether by attachment, levy, garnishment, or otherwise, renders this Services Agreement voidable.

13. Headings and Modifications

13.1 The section headings of this Services Agreement were used purely for convenience and may be modified along with their content at any time. The Affiliate agrees that these headings do not, in any way, limit, construe, define, describe, or affect the scope or extent of such section. The Affiliate also agrees that changes and modifications can be done at any time by Kine and that such changes shall henceforth be enforceable in this Services Agreement.

13.2 This Services Agreement, as well as any additional agreement hereto (both present and future), are made in English. Any other language translations are provided as a convenience only. In the case of any inconsistency or discrepancy between the original English texts and their translation into any other language, the original versions in English shall prevail.

14. Governing Law

14.1 This Services Agreement will be governed by the laws of the British Virgin Islands (BVI) without reference to rules governing the choice of laws. Any action relating to this Services Agreement must be brought in the BVI and the Affiliate irrevocably consent to the jurisdiction of its courts.
