Nothing contained in this Clause 22 shall limit the right of JetSmarter to take proceedings against Supplier in any other Court of competent jurisdiction nor shall the taking of proceedings in one or more jurisdiction preclude the taking of proceedings in any other jurisdiction whether concurrently or not (unless precluded by applicable law).

If the addressee rejects or otherwise refuses to accept the communication, or if the communication cannot be delivered because of a change in address for which no notice was appropriately given, then communication is effective upon the rejection, refusal or inability to deliver. Nothing contained in these Terms shall justify or excuse failure to give verbal notice for the purpose of informing the other party thereof when prompt notification is appropriate, but such verbal notice shall not satisfy the requirement of written notice.
