FORCE MAJEURE Notwithstanding any other provision of this Contract, to the extent that either Party may fail to satisfy any obligation imposed under this Contract (except for a payment or confidentiality obligation) as a result of "Force Majeure'', performance of this Contract shall, to that extent, be deemed to have been frustrated and no cause of action for breach or liability shall arise as a consequence thereof.
