the Company all assistance as may be necessary in connection with any matter

and Distributor shall refrain from doing so. The Company shall control the
defense or prosecution of any actions concerning infringement of its Trademarks.

accordance with Section 16 hereof and to bring an action for infringement of the
rights of the Company in and to the Trademarks.

enforceable in the Territory, and the Company shall pay any resulting damages,
costs and attorney’s fees finally awarded by a court or any resulting settlement
agreed upon by the Company, provided that Distributor promptly notifies the
Company in writing of the claim and, further provided, that the Company has sole
control of the defense and of all related settlement negotiations.
 
(b)
The Company’s obligation under this Section is subject to the condition that if
any Product becomes, or in the Company’s opinion is likely to become, the
subject of such a claim, Distributor shall permit the Company, at its option and

Upon termination or expiration of the term of this Agreement or any renewal
thereof, neither Party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder;
provided, that, expiration or termination of this Agreement shall not relieve
Distributor or the Company of their respective obligations incurred prior
thereto and that any obligations, which by their nature extend beyond expiration
or termination of a contract, such as those concerning intellectual property
rights, indemnification and limitation of liabilities shall survive expiration
or termination of this Agreement and remain in effect until fulfilled, and shall
apply to the Parties’ respective successors and assignees. Distributor hereby
agrees that if the Company permits Distributor to perform certain activities
after this Agreement expires or terminates, Distributor will do so under the
terms of this Agreement.

SECTION 17. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

17.1
 
Prior Agreements. This Agreement contains the entire agreement of the Parties
with respect to the subject matter hereof and shall cancel and supersede, as of
the date this Agreement is signed by both Parties, any prior agreements written
or oral between the Parties or their respective legal predecessors with respect
to the subject matter covered by this Agreement.
     
17.2
 
Geographic Scope. All of Distributor’s rights under this Agreement are valid
only in the Territory.
     
17.3
 
Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance
with the internal laws of the State of Florida, United States of America,
applicable to agreements made and to be performed entirely within Florida,
without regard to the conflicts of law principles of such State. Distributor
acknowledges, represents and warrants that it is aware of the laws of the State
of Florida, and has been duly advised and willfully chooses the laws of the
State of Florida as the governing law for this Agreement.
         
The Parties hereby agree that neither the "United Nations Convention on
Contracts for the International Sale of Goods", nor the Convention on the
Limitation Period in the International Sale of Goods and the Protocol amending
such Convention, done at Vienna April 11, 1980, shall govern the rights, duties
and obligations of the Parties under this Agreement.
     
17.4
 
Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process

 
 (a)
If any dispute arises between the parties regarding any matter under this
Agreement, the parties will refer the dispute to senior executives of each
party, who will attempt to resolve the dispute within ten (10) business days of
the referral date. If the executives resolve the dispute, they will state the
resolution in a writing provided to both parties. If the executives determine
that they are unable to resolve the dispute (the date of such determination, the
“Impasse Date”), the parties will seek to resolve the dispute through
non-binding mediation conducted at a mutually agreeable location; if the parties
are not able to agree on a mediator within ten (10) business days after the
Impasse Date, the mediation will be conducted under the American Arbitration
Association’s (“AAA’s”) then-current mediation rules by a mediator selected at
random from the AAA panel of mediators with property expertise. The mediation
must be conducted within thirty (30) days after the Impasse Date, with each
party to bear its own costs and to share equally in the cost of the mediation
itself (including mediator’s fees). No court action for damages may be commenced
unless the parties have completed mediation without resolving the dispute.

 (b)
Both of the Parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submit, for
themselves and their property, to the jurisdiction of any court of the State of
Florida sitting in Palm Beach County, Florida, or any Federal court of the
United States of America sitting in the Southern District of the State of
Florida, and any appellate court from any such court, in any suit, action or
proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or for recognition or
enforcement of any judgment, and each of the Parties hereto hereby irrevocably
and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such suit, action
or proceeding may be heard and determined in such State of Florida court or
Federal court. It shall be a condition precedent to each Party’s right to bring
any such suit, action or proceeding that such suit, action or proceeding, in the
first instance, be brought in such State of Florida court or, to the extent
permitted by law, in such Federal court (unless such suit, action or proceeding
is brought solely to obtain discovery or to enforce a judgment), and if each of
such State of Florida court and such Federal court refuses to accept
jurisdiction with respect thereto, such suit, action or proceeding may be
brought in any other court of competent jurisdiction. No Party to this Agreement
may move to (1) transfer any such suit, action or proceeding from such State of
Florida court or any Federal court of the United States of America sitting in
the State of Florida, to another jurisdiction, (2) consolidate any such suit,
action or proceeding brought in such State of Florida court or Federal court
with a suit, action or proceeding in another jurisdiction, or (3) dismiss any
such suit or proceeding brought in such State of Florida court or any Federal
court of the United States of America sitting in the State of Florida, for the
purpose of bringing the same in another jurisdiction. Each Party agrees that a
final judgment in any such suit, action or proceeding shall be conclusive and
may be enforced in any other jurisdiction by suit on the judgment or in any
other manner provided by law.
 
 (c)
Each of the Parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the
fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may
now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding
arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any State of Florida court
sitting in Palm Beach County, Florida, or any Federal court sitting in the
District of the State of Florida. Each of the Parties hereby irrevocably waives,
to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to
the maintenance of such suit, action or proceeding in such court and further
waives the right to object, with respect to such suit, action or proceeding,
that such court does not have jurisdiction over such Party.
 
 (d)
Each of the Parties, hereby irrevocably consents to service of process in the
manner provided for notices in Section 17.6 hereof. Nothing in this Agreement
will affect the right of either Party to this Agreement to serve process in any
other manner permitted by law.

17.5
Assignment. This Agreement and the rights and obligations hereunder may not be
assigned, delegated or transferred by either Party without the prior written
consent of the other Party; provided, however, that Distributor’s consent shall
not be required with respect to any assignment, delegation or transfer by the
Company to any entity providing financing to the Company, to another division of
the Company or to any affiliate of the Company or division of such affiliate.
This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the permitted successors and
assigns of the Company. For the purposes of this Agreement, “affiliate” shall
mean any company, natural person, partnership or other business entity
controlled by, under common control with or controlling either Party to this
Agreement.

17.12
 
Time Limit On Actions. No action, regardless of form, arising out of this
Agreement may be brought by either Party more than two (2) years after the cause

the Company.
 
17.13
 
Force Majeure. Neither Party shall be liable for failure to perform or delay in
performing any obligation under this Agreement, except the obligation to make
payments when due, if such failure or delay is due to force majeure, including,
but not limited to, war, embargo, riot, insurrection, sabotage or other civil
unrest; fire, explosion, flood or other natural disaster; accident or breakdown
of machinery; unavailability of fuel, labor, containers, or transportation
facilities; accidents of navigation, breakdown or damage of vessels or other
conveyances for air, land or sea; other impediments or hindrances to
transportation; strike or other labor disturbances; government restraints or any
other cause beyond the control of the affected party; provided, however, that
the Party so failing to perform shall (i) as soon as possible, inform the other
Party of the occurrence of the circumstances preventing or delaying the
performance of its obligations, and describe at a reasonable level of detail the
circumstances causing such delay, and (ii) exert reasonable efforts to
eliminate, cure or overcome any of such cases and to resume performance of its
covenants with all possible speed. In such event, the non-performing Party will
be excused from any further performance or observance of the obligation(s) so
affected for as long as such circumstances prevail and such Party continues to
use its best efforts to recommence performance or observance whenever and to
whatever extent possible without delay. In the event that, by operation of law
or governmental decree, it becomes illegal to market and sell a Product in the
Territory, Distributor shall be relieved of its obligations under this Agreement
(other than the obligation to make any payment due hereunder) only to the extent
that they relate to such Product. Any Party so delayed in its performance will
be under no liability for loss or damages suffered by the other Party thereby.
     
Either Party may convene a meeting between the Parties to discuss the force
majeure and its effect on any obligation under this Agreement. The Parties shall
seek to modify the relevant provisions in order to accommodate the circumstances
caused by the force majeure. If the Parties fail to agree on such modifications
within thirty (30) calendar days after notice of the force majeure is delivered,
either Party may terminate this Agreement by written notice to the other Party.
Such termination shall be effective thirty (30) calendar days after the date of
the written notice.
