15.1 Both parties:
(a) shall comply with the Bribery Act 2010 and any guidance issued by any governmental department relating to such legislation (“Bribery Act”);
(b) shall not engage in any activity, practice or conduct anywhere in the world which would constitute an offence under the Bribery Act if such activity, practice or conduct had been carried out in the UK;
(c) shall maintain in place throughout the Term (and enforce where appropriate) its own policies and procedures to ensure compliance with the Bribery Act;
(d) shall promptly report to the other any request or demand for any undue financial or other advantage of any kind received by it in connection with the performance of this Agreement; and

The Publisher shall indemnify Mobkoi from and against any and all third party claims, actions, liabilities, losses, damages, penalties, fines, costs and expenses sustained or incurred by Mobkoi arising out of or in connection with any failure by the Publisher to comply with any of its obligations set out in this clause 16.2.

17.1 The Publisher will track delivery through its ad server and Mobkoi will track delivery through its Third Party Ad Server. The measurement used for invoicing advertising fees under an Insertion Order will be the Third Party Ad Server (“Controlling Measurement”).
17.2 If the difference between the Controlling Measurement and the other measurement exceeds 5% over the invoice period and the Controlling Measurement is lower, the parties will facilitate reconciliation between the Publisher and the Third Party Ad Server measurements. If the discrepancy cannot be resolved and a good faith effort to facilitate the reconciliation has been made, Mobkoi reserves the right to either:
(a) consider the discrepancy an under-delivery of the deliverables as described in clause 9.2 whereupon the parties will act in accordance with that clause; or
(b) pay the invoice based on the Controlling Measurement-reported data (including the 5% adjustment to delivery).
17.3 The Publisher will use all reasonable endeavours to publish, and Mobkoi will use reasonable endeavours to cause the Third Party Ad Server to publish, a disclosure in the form reasonably specified by the AAAA and IAB regarding their respective ad delivery measurement methodologies with regard to compliance with the IAB/AAAA Guidelines.
17.4 Where Mobkoi is using a Third Party Ad Server and that Third Party Ad Server cannot serve the Advertisement, Mobkoi may suspend delivery under the Insertion Order for a period of up to 72 hours. On written notification by Mobkoi of a non-functioning Third Party Ad Server, the Publisher will have 24 hours to suspend delivery. Following that period, Mobkoi will not be held liable for payment for any Advertisement that runs within the immediately following 72-hour period until the Publisher is notified that the Third Party Ad Server is able to serve Advertisements. After the 72-hour period passes and if Mobkoi has not provided written notification that the Publisher can resume delivery under the Insertion Order, Mobkoi will pay for the Advertisements that would have run, or are run, after the 72-hour period but for the suspension, and can elect the Publisher to serve Advertisements until the Third Party Ad Server is able to serve Advertisements. If Mobkoi does not so elect for the Publisher to serve the Advertisements until Third Party Ad Server is able to serve Advertisements, the Publisher may use the inventory that would have been otherwise used for the Publisher’s own advertisements or advertisements provided by a third party.
17.5 Upon notification that the Third Party Ad Server is functioning, the Publisher will have 72 hours to resume delivery. Any delay in the resumption of delivery beyond this period, without reasonable explanation, will result, without prejudice to Mobkoi’s remedies, in the Publisher owing a makegood to Mobkoi.
18.1 Neither party shall be liable for any delay in performing or failure to perform its obligations hereunder to the extent that and for so long as the delay or failure results from any act, event, non-happening, omission or accident beyond its reasonable control (a “Force Majeure Event”).
18.2 Force Majeure Events shall include but not be limited to the following events affecting either party:
(a) strikes, lock-outs or other industrial action (other than strikes, lock-outs or other industrial action of the party seeking to rely on the Force Majeure Event);

18.3 Failure by either party to maintain and implement business continuity and disaster recovery processes and procedures in accordance with good industry practice shall not constitute a Force Majeure Event.
19.1 This Agreement states the full extent of Mobkoi’s obligations and liabilities in respect of the performance of the Services and the parties agree that any condition, warranty, representation or other term concerning the performance of the Service which might otherwise be implied into or incorporated in this Agreement, whether by statue, common law or otherwise, is excluded to the maximum extent permitted by law.
19.2 If at any time any provision of this Agreement is or becomes invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such provision shall be deemed to be severed from this Agreement but the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall not be affected or impaired as a result.
19.3 In the event that Mobkoi wishes to make a material change to the Insertion Order, any such change shall be subject to the agreement of both parties in writing.
19.4 The Publisher shall not assign, transfer, subcontract or deal in any other manner with any or all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of Mobkoi (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).
19.5 Save for the Advertiser who is a beneficiary of the Services, a person who is not a party to the Contract (a "third party") shall have no rights pursuant to the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 (the "Act") to enforce any of the terms of this Agreement. Any right or remedy of a third party which exists or is available apart from the Act is not affected.
