The seller may, however, waive the present jurisdiction clause and, if he prefers, bring proceedings before the competent court under ordinary law.
- Given the exceptional and temporary nature of the visits and events organised by Explore.Brussels and given that it is not the owner of the premises, Explore.Brussels undertakes to organise what has been contractually agreed as far as is reasonably possible but cannot be held responsible in the event of cancellation by the owner of the premises, a late ban on entering the premises or cancellation of the visit or event due to force majeure.
