Supplier Terms and Conditions
These Supplier Terms and Conditions (“Agreement”) are entered
into between ExcursionsJordan For Tourism Marketing (“ExcursionsJordan”),

incorporates the definitions in Exhibit A (“Definitions”) and the Platform
Rules. Any capitalized term used in this Agreement will have the meaning
assigned to it in Exhibit A or elsewhere in this Agreement. This Agreement
governs the relationship between ExcursionsJordan and Supplier. The
relationship between Supplier and a Customer is governed by the
Supplier-Customer Contract.
1. ExcursionsJordan Platform.
ExcursionsJordan operates the ExcursionsJordan Platform. In
connection with Supplier’s access and use of the ExcursionsJordan Platform,
Supplier appoints ExcursionsJordan as its commercial agent for the purposes set
forth herein. Using the ExcursionsJordan Platform, (i) Customers can purchase
Services from Supplier through ExcursionsJordan acting as an commercial agent
for Supplier, and (ii) Travel Agencies, concierges, or other entities may
purchase Services from Suppliers for their clients. Supplier is responsible for
acquiring and maintaining, at its own expense, all equipment and connectivity
required to access the ExcursionsJordan Platform.

Supplier may manage the Supplier Content, including Product
Offers, on the ExcursionsJordan Platform using the Supplier Administration
Site.
2.1. Account Creation.
Supplier will provide to ExcursionsJordan all information
required by ExcursionsJordan to establish the Supplier Account. This includes
(i) proof of insurance in accordance with Section 11 below, (ii) a current
business license or registration, (iii) details regarding Supplier’s Payment
Account, and (iv) other information as reasonably requested by ExcursionsJordan.
Supplier will keep this information up-to-date via the Supplier Administration
Site.
2.2. Login Credentials.
Supplier is responsible for maintaining the confidentiality and
security of its Login Credentials and may not disclose the Login Credentials to
any third party. Supplier is liable for all activities conducted in connection
with its Supplier Account. Supplier must immediately notify ExcursionsJordan if
Supplier knows or has reason to suspect that (i) its Login Credentials have
been lost, stolen, misappropriated, or otherwise compromised or (ii) there has
been actual or suspected unauthorized use of its Supplier Account.
3. Sale of Services on the ExcursionsJordan
Platform.
3.1. Product Offers.
For each Service that Supplier wishes to sell via the ExcursionsJordan
Platform, Supplier will upload a Product Offer using the Supplier
Administration Site. The Product Offer must include all necessary information
about the Services, including (i) suitability information (e.g. minimum age, ,
required skills or permits (such as a driver’s license), level of fitness, or
inherent risks (including risks to persons with pre-existing medical
conditions), (ii) logistical information (e.g. meeting point, meeting time,
duration, and required or recommended clothing and equipment), and (iii) other
information requested by ExcursionsJordan. Supplier shall ensure that all
critical information is included in the “Important information” section of the
Product Offer, If any logistical information is omitted from the Product Offer
or ticket, Supplier shall provide this information to Customer as soon as
possible. ExcursionsJordan reserves the right to introduce Content
Modifications in line with ExcursionsJordan’s Content Guidelines.
3.2. Availability.
Supplier must keep the Product Offer, including Availability,
up-to-date and accurate at all times. Supplier must delete any cancelled or invalid
Product Offers immediately. Supplier is responsible for any Customer claim
based on alleged or actual inaccuracies of the Product Offer, including
Availability, or other Supplier Content.
3.3. Prices.
Supplier sets the Retail Price at which Services will be sold to
Customers. The Retail Price for the Services stated in the Product Offer shall
include Applicable Taxes. The Retail Price must include all expenses; ExcursionsJordan
will not collect such amounts separately. The Product Offer must disclose the
existence and amount of any fees, taxes, dues, commissions, or other amounts
that will be collected on the day Services are provided. Supplier may not
collect (or attempt to collect) from a Customer any fees, taxes, dues,
commissions, or other amounts not disclosed in the Product Offer. ExcursionsJordan
will display the Retail Price in Supplier’s preferred currency, and may, in its
sole discretion, display the Retail Price in any other currency.
3.4. Conclusion of Contract.
When a Customer purchases Services via the ExcursionsJordan
Platform, the Customer purchases Services directly from Supplier pursuant to
the Supplier-Customer Contract, concluded on Supplier’s part by ExcursionsJordan
acting as commercial agent of the Supplier in the name and on behalf of
Supplier. Supplier appoints and authorizes ExcursionsJordan (and its
Distribution Partners) as its commercial agent to conclude the
Supplier-Customer Contract with Customers in the name and on behalf of the
Supplier, manage and cancel Bookings, and make full or partial refunds to Customers,
as set forth in this Agreement. ExcursionsJordan may decide to reject the
conclusion of the Supplier-Customer Contract within its sole discretion (e.g.
in the case of potential fraud or compliance concerns).
3.5. Payment Collection.
Supplier instructs ExcursionsJordan as its commercial agent to
collect payments from Customers in the name and on behalf of Supplier, and
Supplier agrees that ExcursionsJordan may from time to time acting in its sole
discretion appoint such Sub-Commercial Agent as it sees fit to receive those
payments directly from Customers and to make onward payment of those sums
successfully received to Supplier. In particular, for any payment from a US
Customer, Supplier appoints EJ Operations as its limited payment agent solely
for the purpose of directly accepting such payments on behalf of Supplier and
to make onward payment of those sums to ExcursionsJordan. Supplier agrees that
receipt of payment for the sum due from a Customer by ExcursionsJordan, or its
Sub-Commercial Agent (including EJ Operations), as applicable, shall extinguish
Customer's payment obligation to Supplier. Supplier agrees that payment made by
a Customer to ExcursionsJordan or its Sub-Commercial Agent (including EJ
Operations), as applicable, through the ExcursionsJordan Platform shall be
considered the same as a payment made directly to Supplier, and Supplier will
provide Services to Customers in the agreed-upon manner as if Supplier had
received the Customers’ funds directly. Supplier acknowledges and agrees that
it shall have no recourse against a Customer once the funds are tendered to ExcursionsJordan
or its Sub-Commercial Agent (including EJ Operations), as applicable. ExcursionsJordan
uses a Payment Service Provider to process payments from Customers; in some
cases a Distribution Partner and in certain countries an Affiliate may be
appointed as a Sub-Commercial Agent. ExcursionsJordan will bear the credit card
and banking fees for the receipt of payment from Customers, provided that ExcursionsJordan
may charge Customers a foreign exchange fee if applicable. The payment will be
collected in the currency indicated by Supplier in the Product Offer.
3.6. Changes.
Customers occasionally make mistakes when making Bookings.
Subject to availability, ExcursionsJordan may change the date, time, language,
or number of persons for a Booking up to two (2) hours after a Customer booked
a Service. Such changes will be made at no charge to the Customer or to ExcursionsJordan.
3.7. Chargebacks and Disputes.
If a Chargeback or other payment failure occurs before Supplier
provides a Service, ExcursionsJordan will inform Supplier and cancel the
Booking. If a Chargeback occurs after Supplier provides a Service, ExcursionsJordan
will ask Supplier to provide a response within three Business Days. ExcursionsJordan
may forward Supplier’s response to the credit card issuer. Supplier
acknowledges and agrees that ExcursionsJordan accepts payments from Customers
as Supplier’s commercial agent, and that ExcursionsJordan’s obligation to pay
Supplier is subject to and conditional upon successful receipt of the
associated payments from Customers. In the event of a Chargeback or other
failed payment, (i) ExcursionsJordan and its Sub-Commercial Agent will make no
payment to Supplier for the affected Booking, (ii) ExcursionsJordan will
receive no Commission for the affected Booking, and (iii) ExcursionsJordan may
offset any amount already paid to Supplier for the affected Booking against any
future payment under this Agreement. ExcursionsJordan and its Sub-Commercial
Agent are not a party to the Supplier-Customer Contract, do not act as a
guarantor for payment by Customers, and are not liable to Supplier in the event
of Chargeback or other nonpayment by a Customer.
3.8. Cancellations; No Shows.
Supplier will not directly accept cancellations of Bookings from
Customers; all cancellations must be made by a Customer through the ExcursionsJordan
Platform or ExcursionsJordan customer service.
(a) During the Free Cancellation Period.
If a Customer cancels a Booking during the Free Cancellation
Period, ExcursionsJordan will give the Customer a Full Refund. If ExcursionsJordan
gives a Customer a Full Refund, pursuant to this section or for any other
reason, (A) Supplier will receive no payment for the Booking, and (B) ExcursionsJordan
will receive no Commission for the Booking.
(b) After the Free Cancellation Period.
If a Customer cancels a Booking after the Free Cancellation
Period has ended, and there are no extenuating circumstances, the Booking will
be treated as a Completed Booking for purposes of payment. If there are
extenuating circumstances, ExcursionsJordan may give the Customer a Full
Refund.
(c) Force Majeure Situations.
In the event that Supplier cancels Services because of a Force
Majeure Situation, Supplier must notify ExcursionsJordan’s customer service
department immediately. A Customer may cancel a Booking if a Force Majeure
Situation occurs at the travel destination, regardless of whether Supplier
continues to provide Services during the affected period of time. If Supplier
or Customer cancels a Booking in connection with a Force Majeure Situation, ExcursionsJordan
will give the Customer a Full Refund.
(d) No Shows.
If a Customer is a No Show and there are no extenuating
circumstances, the Booking will be treated as a Completed Booking for purposes
of payment. If there are extenuating circumstances, ExcursionsJordan may give
the Customer a Full Refund.
3.9. Provision of Services.
Supplier will provide Services in accordance with the Product
Offer, in good faith, and consistent with best practices and standards in the
tours and activities industry. Supplier may subcontract performance of the
Services only with the prior written consent of ExcursionsJordan.
3.10. Failure to Provide Services.
If Supplier cancels a Booking or otherwise fails to provide
Services to a Customer as required by a Booking, ExcursionsJordan will give the
Customer a Full Refund. Supplier acknowledges that its cancellation or other
failure to provide Services damages ExcursionsJordan’s goodwill and reputation,
and causes ExcursionsJordan to incur additional customer service expenses.
Accordingly, if ExcursionsJordan determines that the cancellation or failure to
provide Services was not justifiable (e.g. the result of a Force Majeure
Situation), ExcursionsJordan may deduct a cancellation fee (as liquidated
damages), equal to twenty-five percent of the Retail Price of the Services for
each affected Customer, from any future payment due to Supplier hereunder. The
Parties acknowledge and agree that it would be impractical to estimate the
amount of any damages that could arise out of Supplier’s cancellation or other
failure to provide Services, and agree that the amount of liquidated damages
described above is a reasonable estimate of the actual damages that ExcursionsJordan
would suffer and incur as a result of such cancellation or failure to provide
Services. ExcursionsJordan may, at its sole discretion, opt not to deduct this
amount, or to deduct a lesser amount, if Supplier provides an alternative but
equivalent Service at the same date to the affected Customers. For the
avoidance of doubt, a cancellation resulting from Supplier’s failure to provide
accurate Availability information on the ExcursionsJordan Platform shall
constitute a failure to provide Services for purposes of this section. In
addition to the remedies stated above, ExcursionsJordan may terminate this Agreement
for Supplier’s material breach if Supplier fails to provide Services as
contracted.
4. Payment.
4.1. ExcursionsJordan’s Commission.
Supplier agrees to pay ExcursionsJordan a Commission for (i) use
of the ExcursionsJordan Platform, (ii) marketing performed by ExcursionsJordan,
(iii) customer service performed by ExcursionsJordan, (iv) ExcursionsJordan’s
brokering of transactions between Supplier and Customers, and (v) other
services performed hereunder by ExcursionsJordan. ExcursionsJordan’s Commission
is a percentage of the Retail Price for a Booking, as specified in the Supplier
Account. Supplier agrees to keep the amount of Commission confidential. The
Commission will be deducted from the Retail Price charged to Customers in the
agreed currency.
4.2. Payment to Supplier.
At Supplier’s option, ExcursionsJordan will make payments to
Supplier either once per month or twice per month.
(a) Payment Once Per Month.
This section is applicable if Supplier chooses to be paid once per
month. By the fifth
Business Day of each month, ExcursionsJordan will transfer an amount to the
Supplier’s Payment Account equal to (i) the total amount collected from
Customers for Completed Bookings occurring in the prior month, less (ii)
applicable Commission.
(b) Payment Twice Per Month.
This section is applicable if Supplier chooses to be paid twice
per month. By the fifth
Business Day of each month, ExcursionsJordan will transfer an amount to the
Supplier’s Payment Account equal to the total amount collected from Customers
for Completed Bookings occurring in the Second Half of the prior month, less
(i) applicable Commission, and (ii) a 2% processing fee. By the twentieth
Business Day of each month, ExcursionsJordan will transfer an amount to the Supplier’s
Payment Account equal to the total amount collected from Customers for
Completed Bookings occurring in the First Half of that month, less (a)
applicable Commission and (b) a 2% processing fee.
4.3. Transaction Fees; Deductions.
ExcursionsJordan shall pay the transaction fees charged by ExcursionsJordan’s
or its Sub-Commercial Agent’s financial institution to transfer amounts to
Supplier’s Payment Account. Supplier will bear any fees charged by Supplier’s
own financial institution for the receipt of payments from ExcursionsJordan or
its Sub-Commercial Agent. ExcursionsJordan or its Sub-Commercial Agent may
deduct from any payment to Supplier the costs of refunds made to Customers,
replacement services provided to Customers, or other amounts Supplier is
required to pay or reimburse an EJ Party under this Agreement.
4.4. Taxes.
Supplier is solely responsible for determining its obligations
to report, collect, remit or include in its Product Offers any Applicable Taxes
and for remitting any Applicable Taxes to the appropriate governmental entity.
If Supplier requires ExcursionsJordan to collect Applicable Taxes on Supplier’s
behalf, Supplier will inform ExcursionsJordan regarding the applicable rate(s)
and the Parties will cooperate to establish a method for such collection. If at
any time ExcursionsJordan determines that it is required to collect or deduct
Applicable Taxes relating to Services, either on its own or on Supplier’s
behalf, it will inform Supplier and collect or deduct such Applicable Taxes. Upon
request from a EJ Party, Supplier will within five business days (i) provide
that entity with Supplier’s valid tax identification or registration numbers,
including where requested any business registration number, to demonstrate that
Supplier is a registered taxpayer in applicable jurisdictions where Services
are taxable, (ii) issue a valid tax invoice to that entity in relation to any
specified Services, (iii) provide documentation to that entity substantiating
that Supplier remitted tax on Services (including copies of returns,
workpapers, and supporting transaction data reports), and (iv) provide other
cooperation to that entity as requested to confirm Supplier’s compliance with
tax obligations. Such information requests may be made directly to the Supplier
or via the Supplier Administration Site. Any failure to comply with the
requirements of this section may result in the temporary or permanent
suspension of Supplier’s Services from the ExcursionsJordan Platform.
In the event Applicable Law in a jurisdiction imposes VAT (or other Applicable
Tax) on Commission, ExcursionsJordan will deduct the amount of such VAT (or
other Applicable Tax) from payments due to the Supplier, in addition to the
Commission. Supplier is responsible for determining if any tax credit is
available under Applicable Law for payment of this VAT (or other Applicable
Tax) on Commission.
4.5. Statement.
ExcursionsJordan will provide Supplier a statement
(“Statement”), once per payment period, showing (i) the total number of
Completed Bookings during the payment period, (ii) the total amount collected
from Customers on Supplier’s behalf for Completed Bookings, (iii) the total
amount transferred to Supplier’s Payment Account for those Completed Bookings,
(iv) the services performed by ExcursionsJordan (“Commission”) and (v) the
amount of sales or other taxes collected and remitted on Supplier’s behalf (if
any). The Statement is the basis for payout by ExcursionsJordan. Point (iv)
serves as the invoice ExcursionsJordan issues for the Supplier in relation to
the services provided ("Commission Invoice"). Unless Supplier
provides written notice to ExcursionsJordan of a good faith dispute with regard
to a Statement within thirty (30) days of receipt thereof, including reasonable
detail in support of such dispute, such Statement will be deemed accepted.
After such period, adjustments for discrepancies will be made in ExcursionsJordan’s
sole discretion. Without prejudice to the foregoing, no dispute may be raised,
and no claim, action or proceedings may be brought, against ExcursionsJordan in
respect of any payment-related matter after (a) the expiry of one (1) year from
the date on which the payment at issue is due (or alleged to be due), or (b)
where more than one payment is at issue, the expiry of one (1) year from the
date on which the first of such payments at issue is due (or alleged to be
due).
4.6. Payment Accrual.
Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary in this Agreement,
ExcursionsJordan and its Sub-Commercial Agent may postpone and accrue payments
due to Supplier hereunder until the total amount payable is equal to at least
$50.00 (or an equivalent amount in the specified currency). ExcursionsJordan
will transfer any accrued and unpaid amount to Supplier upon any termination of
this Agreement.
5. Customer Relations.
5.1. Customer Communications.
Supplier may not directly or indirectly (i) encourage a Customer
to book a service outside the ExcursionsJordan Platform, (ii) refer a Customer
to any other website or platform, including Supplier’s own website or platform,
or (iii) take any other action to circumvent the ExcursionsJordan Platform or
the payment of Commission. If prospective customers, who initiated
communication through the ExcursionsJordan Platform, ask to book a Service
outside the ExcursionsJordan Platform, Supplier will refer them to the ExcursionsJordan
Platform.
5.2. Communication Tools.
Supplier shall handle all Customer inquiries received through
the ExcursionsJordan Platform exclusively using the Communications Tools.

websites; (c) make or accept a booking that circumvents the payment of
Commission; (d) request or accept a payment for Services not using the ExcursionsJordan

an invoice for Services via the Communication Tools. The invoice must comply
with all applicable tax requirements.

restrictions for Services offered via the ExcursionsJordan Platform will be
equal to or better than those made available through Supplier’s own or any

Platform will be treated at least as well as customers that book through
Supplier’s own or any other online booking platform.
5.5. Tickets and Receipts.

including both tickets printed on paper and tickets displayed on smart phones
or other mobile devices. If requested, Supplier must provide each Customer a

identity, physical or mental disability, medical condition, marital status, age
or sexual orientation.
5.7. Customer Requests
Supplier will handle and respond to requests or complaints from

to the Customer, (ii) act as an intermediary between Supplier and the Customer,
(iii) answer and reply on behalf of the Supplier via the Customer service
portal, social media or, if applicable, the communication channels provided on

nonconformity with a Product Offer, an EJ Party may at its sole discretion (a)
give the Customer a Full Refund or partial refund and/or (b) provide the
Customer alternative services (of an equal or better standard than the
Services) and deduct the cost of such replacement services from a future
payment to Supplier. If an EJ Party gives a Customer a partial refund, the
amount paid to Supplier (and the Commission retained by ExcursionsJordan) will
be reduced accordingly.
5.8. Reviews.
After a Booking has been completed, the Customer will have the
opportunity to review the Services on the ExcursionsJordan Platform using ExcursionsJordan's
review system. The aim of the review system is to gather meaningful and
accurate feedback regarding the Services and Supplier in areas such as
performance, reliability, and trustworthiness. Reviews can be viewed by any
user of the ExcursionsJordan Platform. All review content is the exclusive
property of ExcursionsJordan or the applicable EJ Party. Supplier may not use
or distribute any reviews from the ExcursionsJordan Platform without the prior
written consent of ExcursionsJordan. Customer reviews are not verified by ExcursionsJordan
for accuracy. Supplier is prohibited from manipulating the review system in any
manner, such as writing a review about Services or instructing a third party to
do so.
6. Marketing.
6.1. ExcursionsJordan Obligations.
ExcursionsJordan will promote and market the Services in its
sole discretion, and will bear the cost of its promotion and marketing efforts.
In order to promote the Services, ExcursionsJordan may use the Supplier Content
and Supplier Marks in offline and online marketing, including email marketing
and pay-per-click advertising. ExcursionsJordan will, in its sole discretion,
determine whether and how to promote the Services and Product Offers on the ExcursionsJordan
Platform or elsewhere, including position and ranking in search results.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, ExcursionsJordan may offer a
Service at a price lower than the Retail Price stated in a Product Offer,
provided that (i) the offer is limited to members of a Closed User Group and/or
relating to a special event (e.g. public holiday or otherwise relevant event)
and (ii) the full amount of the discount is deducted from the Commission that
would normally be paid by Supplier.
6.2. Supplier Obligations.
Supplier must offer Services under its generally-used company
and brand name. The Product Offer or other Supplier Content may not state or
convey the impression, directly or indirectly, that (i) ExcursionsJordan
provides the Services, (ii) ExcursionsJordan has tested the quality of the
Services, or (iii) ExcursionsJordan otherwise endorses Supplier or the
Services.
6.3. Supplier Communications.
Supplier shall not directly or indirectly (e.g. through an
affiliate or agent) engage in any marketing, promotional, or similar
communications with any Customer without such Customer’s prior consent. Without
limiting the foregoing, Supplier shall not include any marketing or promotional
content in any confirmation or other communication sent to Customers. Supplier
acknowledges that the transmission of communications in violation of this
section constitutes both a material breach of this contract as well as a
potential violation of GDPR.

Applicable Laws, including (i) fire and safety laws, (ii) consumer protection
laws, (iii) information and consultation laws, (iv) licensing laws, (v) health

(through one or more tiers), paid-up, royalty-free license to use the Supplier

title, or interest for ExcursionsJordan in the Supplier Marks other than the
license granted under this Agreement.
8.3. Retention of Rights.
The Supplier Content and Supplier Marks, and all worldwide
Intellectual Property Rights therein, are the exclusive property of Supplier

SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS, ANY REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED,
STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE, REGARDING THE ACTIVITIES AND SERVICES CONTEMPLATED BY

The Indemnifying Party shall defend, indemnify, and hold the
Indemnified Party harmless from and against any and all liabilities, damages,
fines, penalties, settlements, losses, and expenses, of whatever kind
(including legal and accounting fees, court costs, and taxes) incurred or
suffered in connection with a Covered Claim. The Indemnifying Party shall
assume the defense of such claim at its own expense, as soon as such claim is
tendered, using counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, and
shall pay all costs associated with the defense, including attorneys’ fees. The
Indemnifying Party shall have full control over such defense, including any
settlement discussions or agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Indemnified Party (i) may participate at its own expense in the defense of, and
any settlement discussions relating to, such claim, and (ii) shall have the
right to approve any settlement agreement purporting to bind the Indemnified
Party, provided however that such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.
11. Insurance.
During the term of this Agreement (and thereafter until all
Remnant Bookings have been fulfilled), Supplier shall maintain a comprehensive
general liability insurance covering risks related to Supplier’s business and
the Services. The policy will be written on an occurrence form for an
appropriate value in light of the nature of the Services, Supplier’s location,
and industry standards. The policy must extend to indemnification claims
tendered by the EJ Parties. If one or more automobiles is used in the
performance of Services, Supplier shall maintain automobile liability insurance

Protection Laws when processing (including accessing, collecting, storing,
transmitting, and transferring) Customer Personal Data. Supplier shall maintain
adequate security procedures and controls to prevent the unintended disclosure
of, the unauthorized access to, or misappropriation of, any Customer Personal

measures governing the processing of Customer Personal Data in accordance with
this section.

and implement relevant interfaces between the ExcursionsJordan Platform and
such products and services.

not be responsible for any losses or damages arising from or in connection with
any failure of connectivity or the acts or omissions of the Connectivity
Partner. In case Supplier chooses to grant access to a Connectivity Partner to
manage their Supplier Content, the Supplier's obligations shall also apply to
the Connectivity Partner.

Agreement to Supplier by any reasonable means (including via email, via the

least four weeks prior to the proposed Amendment Effective Date. Supplier may
reject a proposed amendment by sending a notice of rejection to ExcursionsJordan,
in the manner specified, before the proposed Amendment Effective Date. If

Agreement in its entirety, without consent of the other Party, (a) to an

afflicted Party, upon giving prompt notice to the other Party, shall be excused
from such performance (i) to the extent that the afflicted Party is prevented
from performing such duties or obligations, (ii) for the duration of the
disruption caused by the Force Majeure Situation. If a Force Majeure Situation
detrimentally affects a Party’s performance for fourteen days or longer, the
other Party may terminate this Agreement.
17.7. Interpretation.
In this Agreement, (i) “including” means “including but not
limited to,” and (ii) general words shall not be given a restrictive meaning by
reason of the fact that they are preceded by words indicating a particular
class of acts, matters or things. Captions and section headings used in this
Agreement are for convenience only and are not a part of this Agreement and
shall not be used in construing it. If any provision herein is held to be
invalid or unenforceable for any reason, the remaining provisions will continue
in full force without being impaired or invalidated in any way. The Parties
agree to replace any invalid provision with a valid provision that most closely
approximates the intent and economic effect of the invalid provision. Each
Party has participated equally in the preparation and negotiation of this
Agreement, and waives to the fullest extent permitted by law any rule of
interpretation or construction requiring that this Agreement be interpreted or
construed against the drafting Party.

party any Confidential Information disclosed to it by the other except (i) as
permitted in this Agreement, or (ii) as required by a court or other
governmental authority. ExcursionsJordan may disclose Confidential Information
to the EJ Parties. Each Party will take all reasonable measures to maintain the
confidentiality of all Confidential Information of the other Party in its
possession or control, which will in no event be less than the measures it uses
to maintain the confidentiality of its own information of similar importance.
17.9. Miscellaneous.
The Parties are independent contractors, and no partnership,
franchise, joint venture, or employment relationship is intended or created by
this Agreement. ExcursionsJordan and any subagents disclaim, and Supplier
waives, any duty arising from the creation of an agency relationship (including
any duty of loyalty or care), to the maximum extent permitted by Applicable
Law. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all remedies provided for
herein are cumulative, in addition to and not in lieu of any other remedies
available to either Party at law, in equity or otherwise. The EJ Parties are
expressly named as third party beneficiaries to this Agreement, and each of the
EJ Parties has the right to enforce this Agreement against Supplier as this
Agreement pertains to its respective rights as a third party beneficiary,
including the service levels specified in Section 5.4. Except as provided in
this section, all rights and obligations of the parties hereunder are personal
to them and this Agreement is not intended to benefit, nor shall it be deemed
to give rise to, any rights in any third party. This Agreement sets forth the
entire understanding and agreement of the Parties, and supersedes (i) any and
all oral or written agreements or understandings between the Parties, as to the
subject matter of the Agreement, and (ii) any terms and conditions governing
the use of Supplier’s or a Connectivity Partner’s API. The waiver of a breach
of any provision of this Agreement will not operate or be interpreted as a
waiver of any other or subsequent breach.
