+ specifically contained in this Agreement and the Licensee hereby
+ irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right it may have to claim

+ by the Licensee) and/or to rescind this Agreement. No addition to or
+ modification of any provision of this Agreement shall be binding upon the
+ parties unless made by a written instrument signed by a duly authorised
+ representative of each of the parties.

+ jurisdiction to deal with any dispute which has arisen or may arise out
+ of or in connection with this Agreement, however STFC may enforce the
+ Licensee's obligation of confidence in the courts of any jurisdiction
+ having competence to issue an injunction directly enforceable against
+ the Licensee.
