 10.6 Applicable Law; Jurisdiction and Venue. This Agreement will be construed and governed in
accordance with the laws of the State of Colorado, without regard to conflict of law principles. Any suit involving any dispute or matter arising under this Agreement may only be brought in the United States District Court for the District of

breach of one or more of the provisions of this Agreement, any party who may be injured (in addition to any other remedies which may be available to that party) shall be entitled to one or more preliminary or permanent orders (i) restraining and
enjoining any act which would constitute a breach or (ii) compelling the performance of any obligation which, if not performed, would constitute a breach.

the remainder of this Agreement, or the application of such provision to persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is held invalid, shall not be affected thereby. In the event that any such provision is deemed to be invalid, the
parties agree that a court making such judgement shall have the ability to interpret and apply such provision to the fullest extent permitted by law, within such provision’s original intent, and still maintain its validity.
