Section 6.5 Governing Law. This Agreement will be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any law or rule that would cause the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York to be applied.
Section 6.6 Dispute Resolution; Consent to Jurisdiction. Any claim or action by any of the parties hereto that may be based upon, arise out of or relate or be incidental to this Agreement will exclusively be brought and resolved in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York (where federal jurisdiction exists) or the Commercial Division of the Courts of the State of New York sitting in the County of New York (where federal jurisdiction does not exist), and the appellate courts having jurisdiction of appeals in such courts. In that context, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each party hereto irrevocably and unconditionally:
(i) submits for itself and its property to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts with respect to any such actions or claims and for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof, and agrees that all such actions or claims shall be heard and determined in such courts;

(iii) agrees that the mailing by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, to the persons listed in Section 6.1 of any process required by any such court, will be effective service of process; provided, however, that nothing herein will be deemed to prevent a party hereto from making service of process by any means authorized by the laws of the State of New York.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, each party hereto irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right to trial by jury in any forum in respect of any action or claim hereunder and covenants that neither it nor any of its affiliates or representatives will assert (whether as plaintiff, defendant or otherwise) any right to such trial by jury.
