REGISTRY, CIRA'S WEBSITE, THE REGISTRANT'S WEBSITE, OR THE DOMAIN NAME REGISTRATION SYSTEM; 
ISSUES WITH THE DNS ("DOMAIN NAME SYSTEM"); UNAUTHORIZED USE OR MISUSE OF THE REGISTRATION'S 
ACCOUNT INFORMATION AND/OR REGISTRATION INFORMATION; OR CIRA'S FAILURE OR REFUSAL TO REGISTER, 
RENEW, TRANSFER, MAINTAIN, MODIFY OR CANCEL A DOMAIN NAME REGISTRATION.
 
8.3	Indemnity.

(a)	The Registrant agrees to defend, indemnify and save CIRA and its contractors, 
agents, employees, officers, directors, Members, affiliates and assigns harmless from and 
against any and all damages, liabilities, obligations, losses, claims, demands, actions, 
causes of action, lawsuits, penalties, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, 
reasonable legal and other related costs) arising out of or in any way connected with the 
Registrant's use of the Services, including without limitation the Registrant's use of any 
Domain Name Registration, the Registrant's violation of the Registrant Agreement or 
Registry PRP, or the Registrant's violation of any rights of another person.

(b)	When CIRA is threatened with a suit or sued by a third party, we may seek 
written assurances from the Registrant concerning their promise to indemnify CIRA.  The 
Registrant acknowledges and agrees that its failure to provide those assurances may be 
considered by CIRA to be a material breach of this Agreement. CIRA shall have the right 
to participate in any defence by the Registrant of a third-party claim, with counsel of 
CIRA's choice at CIRA's own expense. CIRA shall reasonably cooperate in the defence 
at the Registrant's request and expense. The Registrant shall have sole responsibility to 
defend CIRA against any claim, but the Registrant must receive CIRA's prior written 
consent regarding any related settlement.

ARTICLE 9 
LEGAL RELATIONSHIP

9.1	Independent Contractors. The legal relationship between CIRA and the Registrant and 
CIRA and each Registrant's Registrar is that of independent contractors.  Under no circumstances 
shall this Agreement be construed to create a partnership, agency or joint venture between CIRA 
and the Registrant or CIRA and any of the Registrant's Registrar(s).

9.2	No Agency.   Neither party shall have any right, power or authority to act on behalf of the 
other party and neither party shall create any express or implied obligations or financial 
commitments on behalf of the other party.

9.3	Registrant Bound as a Principal. The Registrant agrees that the Registrant is bound as 
a principal by all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and the Registry PRP, 
notwithstanding that the Registrant's Registrar and/or an agent of the Registrant applied for the 
registration of the Registrant's selected Domain Name(s) on behalf of the Registrant.  The 
continued registration of the Registrant's Domain Name Registrations shall ratify any 
unauthorized actions of the Registrant's Registrar and any such agent.  In addition, the Registrant 
is responsible for any errors made by the Registrant's Registrar or any such agent.

executed and delivered all further acts, documents and things in connection with this Agreement 
that the other party may reasonably require, for the purposes of giving effect to this Agreement.

10.4 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement will enure to the benefit of, and be binding on, 
the parties and their respective administrators, executors or other legal representatives, successors 
and permitted and qualified assigns. CIRA may assign or transfer all or any part of its rights and 
obligations under this Agreement to any person The Registrant shall not assign or transfer, 
whether absolutely, by way of security or otherwise, all or any part of its rights or obligations 
under this Agreement without the prior written consent of CIRA, which consent shall be in 
CIRA's sole discretion. Any such purported assignment or transfer, or attempt to so assign and 
transfer without CIRA's prior written consent, shall be of no force and effect.

by reference herein) constitutes the entire agreement between the parties pertaining to the subject 
matter of this Agreement and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings, negotiations and 
discussions, whether oral or written.  There are no conditions, warranties, representations or other 
agreements between the parties in connection with the subject matter of this Agreement (whether 
oral or written, express or implied, statutory or otherwise) except as specifically set out in this 
Agreement.

10.6 Waiver. A waiver of any default, breach or non-compliance under this Agreement is not 
effective unless in writing and signed by the party to be bound by the waiver.  No waiver will be 
inferred from or implied by any failure to act or delay in acting by a party in respect of any 
default, breach or non-observance or by anything done or omitted to be done by the other party.  
The waiver by a party of any default, breach or non-compliance under this Agreement will not 
operate as a waiver of that party's rights under this Agreement in respect of any continuing or 
subsequent default, breach or non-observance (whether of the same or any other nature).

10.7 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in 
any jurisdiction will, as to that jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or 
unenforceability and will be severed from the balance of this Agreement, all without affecting the 
remaining provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of such 
provision in any other jurisdiction.

10.8 Governing Law; Attornment. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in 
accordance with the laws of the Province of Ontario and the laws of Canada applicable in that 
Province and will be treated, in all respects, as an Ontario contract. The Registrant agrees to 
submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of a court of competent jurisdiction in the City 
of Ottawa in the Province of Ontario.

10.9 Force Majeure. Neither party shall be deemed to be in default hereunder for any delay 
or failure to perform its obligations under this Agreement resulting from causes beyond its 
reasonable control. Each party will use its best efforts to anticipate such delays and failures, and 
to devise means to eliminate or minimize them.

10.10	Remedies Cumulative.  The rights and remedies of CIRA under this Agreement are 
cumulative and no exercise or enforcement by CIRA of any right or remedy hereunder shall 
preclude the exercise or enforcement by CIRA of any other right or remedy hereunder or to which 
it is otherwise entitled by law to enforce.

deeds, documents and notices relating to this Agreement, be drawn up in the English language.
