Manufacture of Equipment by Econo shall only commence after Drawings have been jointly approved by Econo and the Buyer.

Manufacturing services performed hereunder by Econo shall not be interpreted as approval of design of function by the Buyer. Econo assumes no liability whatsoever with regard to the Buyer’s compliance or fulfilment of its obligations with respect to any statute, regulation or by-law prevailing at any of the surveyed locations, or the Buyer’s failure to so comply with or fulfill its obligations. Manufacture of Equipment shall be made in accord with the specifications and materials noted herein and on the Drawings.

Econo has the right to declare the entire amount of the unpaid balance and any other charges to be immediately due and payable and to exercise any other remedy existing at law or in equity, including taking possession of the equipment, products and related documentation without notice or demand, and the sale, lease or other disposition of the equipment.

If any provision of this Agreement is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such determination shall not impair or affect the validity, legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof, and each provision is hereby declared to be separate, severable and distinct.
