Waiver: The failure, delay, relaxation or indulgence on the part of Liquid Assets in exercising any of its powers or rights under these Terms and Conditions does not operate as a waiver of that power or right nor does any single exercise of any power or right preclude any other or further exercise of it or the exercise of any other power or right under these terms and conditions and shall not under any circumstances be deemed a waiver of any subsequent breach of these Terms and Conditions by the Client.
      3. Severance- conflict: If for any reason any provision of these conditions shall conflict with any mandatory provision of any Law, then the conflicting condition shall be severed or modified to the extent necessary to bring it within the provisions of the Law and, when so modified, these conditions shall continue in full force and effect.
      4. Severance- invalidity: If any provision of these Terms and Conditions is invalid and not enforceable in accordance with its terms, other provisions which are self-sustaining and capable of separate enforcement without regard to the invalid provision, are and continue to be valid and enforceable in accordance with their terms.
      5. Proper Law: The proper law of these conditions is the law of Victoria and unless otherwise agreed by Liquid Assets, the Courts of Victoria have exclusive jurisdiction to deal with all matters arising out of these conditions.
      6. Variations: Liquid Assets shall not be bound by any variation to these terms and conditions unless the variation is in writing, signed on behalf of Liquid Assets by its duly authorised officer.
      7. Non-Exclusions: Where a provision herein or part thereof purports to exclude, restrict or modify a provision of the Trade Practices Act (Commonwealth), the Fair Trading Act (Victoria) or any similar Act of an Australian state or territory which may apply to these terms and conditions or anyone or more of them which by reason of any such Act cannot be excluded, restricted or modified such provision or part thereof, after being modified where possible in accordance with clause 18.3 hereof, shall be deemed to be deleted here from and any contract arising herein shall continue in full as though such provision or part thereof so deleted had never been incorporated herein.
