Neither party may assign, novate or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations under the Statement of Work without the prior written consent of the other party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) except to any Related Body Corporate (as defined in the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth)) or to a new holding company or controlling entity, provided that the party must immediately notify the other party in writing of any such assignment, novation or transfer.
If the whole or any part of a provision of the Statement of Work is void, unenforceable or illegal in a jurisdiction it is severed for that jurisdiction. The remainder of the Statement of Work has full force and effect and the validity or enforceability of that provision in any other jurisdiction is not affected.

If a dispute arises out of or relates to the Statement of Work, neither party may commence any court or arbitration proceedings relating to the dispute unless it has first complied with this provision, except where a party seeks urgent interlocutory relief.
A party claiming a dispute has arisen must give written notice to the other party specifying the nature of the dispute. On receipt of that notice, the parties must use all reasonable endeavours to resolve the dispute by discussion, consultation, negotiation, or other informal means.
