prior   written   consent   of   Cinesamples.     Any   purported   assignment   in  
violation  of  this  section  will  be  deemed  null  and  void.    Any  change  in

Cinesamples  directly  or  indirectly  owning  or  controlling  50%  or  more

conditions  are  held  by  a  court  of  competent  jurisdiction  to  be  invalid  
or  unenforceable,  then  such  provision(s)  will  be  construed,  as  nearly  
as   possible,   to   reflect   the   intentions   of   the   invalid   or   unenforceable  
provision(s),   with   all   other   provisions   remaining   in   full   force   and  
effect.   No   joint   venture,   partnership,   employment,   or   agency  
relationship   exists   between   You   and   Cinesamples   as   a   result   of   this  
License.   The   failure   of   a   Party   to   enforce   any   right   or   provision   in   this  
License   will   not   constitute   a   waiver   of   such   right   or   provision.   This  
License   comprises   the   entire   agreement   between   the   Parties   and  
supersedes  all  prior  or  contemporaneous  negotiations,  discussions  or  
agreements,   whether   written   or   oral,   between   the   parties   regarding  
the   subject   matter   contained   herein,   and   any   modification   or  
amendment  must  be  evidenced  in  writing  signed  by  both  Parties.
