      19.1  INTERPRETATION.  The Introduction shall be considered a part of this Agreement. Paragraph headings are used only for convenience and do not form part of this Agreement.  A covenant on the part of the Franchisee not to do something includes  a  covenant  not to  permit  others to do it;  any right  given to BKC includes  the  right  to do  it  through  servants  or  agents  or  third  party contractors or to do it in conjunction with its servants,  agents or third party contractors  and includes any necessary  rights of access.  To the extent of any inconsistency,  this Agreement  prevails over the MOD Manual.  References to the parties shall include their heirs, successors in title and assigns.

      19.2  NON-WAIVER. The failure of BKC to exercise any right or option given to it hereunder,  or to insist upon strict  compliance by the  Franchisee or the Principals or any person  comprising the  Franchisee or the Principals  with the terms  of this  Agreement,  shall  not  constitute  a  waiver  of any  terms  or conditions of this Agreement with respect to any other or subsequent breach, nor a waiver by BKC of its right at any time  thereafter to require exact and strict compliance  with all the terms of this  Agreement.  The rights or  remedies  set forth in this  Agreement  are in addition to any other rights or remedies  which may be granted by law.

                                      32

      19.3  GOVERNING  LAW/JURISDICTION.  This Agreement shall become valid when executed  and  accepted  by BKC in  Miami,  Florida;  it shall be  governed  and construed under and in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida; U.S.A.; provided,  however,  that since the Franchisee is a corporation formed under the laws of the  Republic  of  Poland  which is not doing  business  in the State of Florida, the Florida Franchise Act, Florida Statutes Section 817.416(1971) shall not apply to this Agreement.  The parties hereto  acknowledge and agree that all disputes  arising in connection  with this  Agreement  shall be finally  settled pursuant to the provisions set forth in Section 17.6 of this Agreement. However, in the event that Section  17.6(b) of this  Agreement  applies,  then the United States  District  Court for the Southern  District of New York or, if such court lacks  jurisdiction,  the Supreme Court for the State of New York, County of New York,  shall be the venue and exclusive forum in which to adjudicate any case or controversy  arising under said Section  17.6(b),  and the parties further agree that in the event of any such litigation in these courts,  they will not contest or challenge the jurisdiction or venue of these courts.





      19.4  LICENSES, PERMITS, ETC.

      19.7  SEVERABILITY.  The  parties  agree  that if any  provisions  of this Agreement may be construed in two ways,  one of which would render the provision illegal or  otherwise  voidable or  unenforceable,  and the other of which would render  the  provision  valid and  enforceable,  such  provision  shall have the meaning which renders it valid and  enforceable.  The language of all provisions of this  Agreement  shall be  construed  according  to its fair  meaning and not strictly  against any party. It is the intent of the parties that the provisions of this  Agreement  be enforced  to the  fullest  extent and should any court or other public agency  determine that any provision  herein is not  enforceable as written  in  this  Agreement,  the  provision  shall  be  amended  so that it is enforceable to the fullest extent permissible under the laws and public policies of the  jurisdiction in which the enforcement is sought.  The provisions of this Agreement are severable and this Agreement  shall be interpreted and enforced as

                                      33
