This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, and all such counterparts together shall constitute one and the same instrument and may be sufficiently evidenced by one counterpart. Each Party may rely upon the facsimile signature of the other. In addition, at all times while the Agreement is in force, each Party expressly agrees to the use and acceptance of signatures by digital or other electronic means. In addition, each Party agrees (except with respect to documents required to be signed in the presence of a third party or documents having an additional qualifying requirement in addition to the signature) that the use of a message which represents the document and is transformed by a digital signature, constitutes a sufficient signing of record. Subject to the foregoing restrictions, each Party further agrees that a digital or other electronic signature will be accorded the full legal force and effect of a handwritten signature under the law governing the Agreement. Execution of this Agreement at different times and places by the Parties shall not affect the validity thereof.
