Section 9.06 Governing Law

This Agreement will be governed by the laws of the State of Florida without regard to conflict of laws principles thereof. Each of the parties hereto irrevocably consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of any court located within the State of Florida in connection with any matter based upon or arising out of this Agreement or the matters contemplated herein, agrees that process may be served upon them in any manner authorized by the laws of the State of Florida for such persons and waives and covenants not to assert or plead any objection which they might otherwise have to such jurisdiction and such process.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, and as separately bargained-for consideration, each party hereby waives any right to trial by jury in any action, suit, proceeding, or counterclaim of any kind arising out of or relating to this Agreement.

Section 9.07 Waivers

Compliance with the provisions of this Agreement may be waived only by a written instrument specifically referring to this Agreement and signed by the party waiving compliance. No course of dealing, nor any failure or delay in exercising any right, will be construed as a waiver, and no single or partial exercise of a right will preclude any other or further exercise of that or any other right.

Section 9.08 Pronouns

The use of a particular pronoun herein will not be restrictive as to gender or number but will be interpreted in all cases as the context may require.

Section 9.09 Joint Drafting

This Agreement shall be deemed to have been drafted jointly by the Parties hereto, and no inference or interpretation against any Party shall be made solely by virtue of such Party allegedly having been the draftsperson of this Agreement.

Section 9.10 Time Periods

Any action required hereunder to be taken within a certain number of days will be taken within that number of calendar days unless otherwise provided; provided, however, that if the last day for taking such action falls on a weekend or a holiday, the period during which such action may be taken will be automatically extended to the next business day.

Section 9.11 Modification

No supplement, modification or amendment of this Agreement will be binding unless made in a written instrument that is signed by all of the Parties hereto and that specifically refers to this Agreement.

Section 9.12 Severability

If any one or more of the provisions of this Agreement shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall not be affected thereby. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each party waives any provision of law, which renders any provision of this Agreement invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect.

Section 9.13 Entire Agreement

This Agreement and the agreements and documents referred to in this Agreement or delivered hereunder are the exclusive statement of the agreement among the Parties concerning the subject matter hereof. All negotiations among the Parties are merged into this Agreement, and there are no representations, warranties, covenants, understandings, or agreements, oral or otherwise, in relation thereto among the Parties other than those incorporated herein and to be delivered hereunder.
