This is an extremely open ended contract. Virtually every page leaves it wide open for BJ interpretation. Did you also notice things like the Dependability Policy are now hard coded into the contract by referencing it externally? In other words, they hijacked the contract by saying you must follow their Dependability Policy, yet they can rewrite or apply the DP however and whenever they feel like it. I lawyered this document and it's not that great. It needs to be rewritten to handle every case, not just one scenario. In other words, every paragraph needs an IF X then Y,
ELSE Z.
