LOCAL REQUIREMENTS FOR SWITZERLAND

These Local Requirements (“LR”) incorporate and modify the Agreement solely with respect to Products and Services provided by Vendor in Switzerland to an Amazon Affiliate in Switzerland. The parties agree to be bound by the terms of the Agreement (as supplemented and amended by the terms of these LR).  These LR do not apply to Products and Services provided outside of Switzerland, or that are not provided by Vendor in Switzerland. Solely with respect to the provision of Products and Services in Switzerland, in the event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of these LR and the Agreement, the terms and conditions of these LR will control.

1.      Governing Law; Venue.  This Agreement shall in all respects be governed by, construed, and interpreted in accordance with, the laws of Switzerland. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Good will not apply to this Agreement. The Parties submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Courts of Zurich (District 1) for all disputes arising out of, or in connection with, this Agreement.

2.      Work Product, Proprietary Rights and Pre-Existing Work. If Vendor delivers or is required to deliver to Amazon any Work Product in connection with the Services or Deliverables provided hereunder, then Amazon shall own all Proprietary Rights in and to such Work Product, except Vendor’s Pre-Existing Work which shall be subject to a license. Vendor undertakes to and hereby assigns to Amazon (or to such of its Affiliates as it may designate), its successors and assignees, all exclusive, worldwide right, title and interest in and to the Work Product and any Proprietary Rights contained therein, in the most extensive way possible under applicable Laws, including without limitation, in whole or in part to any inventions, designs and Proprietary Rights embodied in the Work Product, in a manner, method or way known or unknown at the time of signature of the Agreement. Assignment shall occur without requirement for any other action upon creation of the Work Product. The foregoing assignment shall include a license granted under any current and future patents owned or licensable by Vendor to the extent necessary to combine the Work Product or any derivative works or modifications thereof with any product, service, offering, software or intellectual property of Amazon or any of its Affiliates. Vendor will execute any and all documents in connection with such assignment and such additional license (if required) that Amazon may reasonably request, including, without limitation, to enable Amazon and its Affiliates to prosecute, perfect, register or record their rights in and to the Work Product. Vendor represents and warrants that its employees or permitted sub-contractors contributing to the Work Product have validly assigned their Property Rights to Vendor and have validly waived their moral rights (in particular the right to be named as an author). Vendor may not use any assigned and therefore Amazon owned Work Product for any purpose without Amazon’s advance written consent.
