12         Governing Law

This Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of Illinois, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. This Agreement will not be governed by the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods, the application of which is expressly excluded. Licensee hereby submits itself and its property in any legal action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof to the exclusive general jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Illinois or to the United States North District Court of Illinois and to the respective appellate courts thereof in connection with any appeal therefrom.

 

13         Handling of Disputes

13.1      Licensee acknowledges that, in the event Licensee breaches any provision of this Agreement, Zebra may not have an adequate remedy in money or damages. Zebra will therefore be entitled to seek an injunction against such breach from any court of competent jurisdiction immediately upon request without posting bond. Zebra’s right to seek injunctive relief will not limit its right to seek further remedies.

13.2      If any term of this Agreement is to any extent illegal, otherwise invalid, or incapable of being enforced, such term will be excluded to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability, all other terms hereof will remain in full force and effect, and, to the extent permitted and possible, the invalid or unenforceable term will be deemed replaced by a term that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of such invalid or unenforceable term.

14         Open-Source Software

The Software may be subject to one or more open-source licenses. The open-source license provisions may override some terms of this Agreement. Zebra makes the applicable open-source licenses available on a legal notices website, readme file, system reference guides, or command line interface (CLI) reference guides associated with certain Zebra products.

 

15         Government End User Restricted Rights

The U.S. Government has certain restricted rights in software under the Federal Acquisition Regulations and Defense Federal Acquisition Regulations Supplement, as applicable.

Consistent with the above regulations and other relevant sections of the Code of Federal Regulations, the Software is distributed and licensed to U.S. Government end users (a) only as a “commercial item” consisting of “commercial computer software” and “computer software documentation” as such terms are defined in the above regulations, and (b) with only those rights as are granted to all other end users pursuant to the terms and conditions contained herein.

 

16         Export Control

By ordering, subscribing to, installing, executing, running, downloading, or otherwise using the Software and any accompanying documentation, Licensee agrees that it is not located in a country that is subject to export embargoes or that has been designated as a "terrorist supporting" country.
