unless in writing and signed by or on behalf of the Parties hereto. Failure or delay on
the part of any Party hereto in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder will

interest therein nor any rights or obligations hereunder may be ceded, assigned, or
otherwise transferred without the prior written consent of the other Party;

connection with this Agreement, it shall act in good faith; and

to direct the SECOND PARTY to replace such sub-contractor upon 15 (fifteen) days

cede, assign and delegate its rights and obligations under such agreement to FIRST
PARTY; save that should the SECOND PARTY be advised by a Third Party with
whom it is contracting that any agreement cannot be assigned to FIRST PARTY,

may be) to assign and the SECOND PARTY shall not enter into such agreement
without the prior written consent of the FIRST PARTY.
