These terms and conditions are subject to change without prior written notice at any time, in ATRS’s sole discretion.
1. OTHER DOCUMENTS
Other than as specifically provided in any separate formal purchase agreement between Customer and ATRS, these terms and conditions may NOT be altered or amended by the use of any other document(s). Any attempt to alter or amend this document or to enter an order for product(s) or services and support that are subject to altered terms and conditions will be null and void, unless otherwise agreed to in a written agreement signed by both Customer and ATRS.

THE PARTIES HEREBY AGREE TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE PROVINCE OF ALBERTA.
3. PAYMENT TERMS; ORDERS; QUOTES; INTEREST
Terms of payment are within ATRS’s sole discretion, and unless otherwise agreed to by ATRS, payment must be received by ATRS prior to ATRS’s acceptance of an order.

12. DISPUTE RESOLUTION
A. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
Customer acknowledges that ATRS possesses valuable confidential and proprietary information, that would be damaging to ATRS if revealed in open court. The parties further acknowledge and agree that it is preferable to resolve all disputes between them confidentially, individually, and in an expeditious and inexpensive manner. The parties accordingly acknowledge and agree that private dispute resolution is preferable to court actions.
B. GOOD FAITH NEGOTIATION
Before commencing any arbitration in the manner set out in Subsection 13(c) below, the parties shall first attempt to resolve any dispute or differences between them by way of good faith negotiation. The good faith negotiation shall commence by each party communicating their position regarding the complaint, claim, dispute, or controversy to the other party, and how the parties should resolve the dispute. The parties shall then make good faith efforts to negotiate a resolution of the claim, dispute, or controversy. Neither party shall commence any arbitral proceedings unless and until the good faith negotiation fails.
C. ARBITRATION

The arbitration will be limited solely to the dispute or controversy between Customer and ATRS. Any award of the arbitrator(s) shall be final and binding on each of the parties, and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.
D. INJUNCTIVE RELIEF AND PROVISIONAL RELIEF IN AID OF ARBITRATION
Notwithstanding the provisions in this Section 12 or anywhere else in this Agreement, ATRS shall have the right to seek and obtain any provisional or interim relief from any court of competent jurisdiction to protect its trademark or property rights or to preserve the status quo pending good faith negotiation and/or arbitration.
13. APPLICABLE LAW; NOT FOR RESALE
