 19. Jurisdiction, Venue and Service of Process. The parties hereby agree irrevocably and unconditionally:
(a) to submit to any legal action or proceeding to enforce, ratify, or interpret the provisions of this Agreement to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state or federal courts in the State of Florida; and (b) waive any objection that they
may now or hereafter have to the venue of Miami-Dade County for any such action or proceeding or any objection that such action or proceeding was brought in an inconvenient forum. Each of the DeLoaches expressly consents and accepts service of

fully pay the other party’s attorneys’ fees, costs and other expenses reasonably incurred in enforcing the Agreement and resulting from the noncompliance. 
 21. Modification or Revocation. No provision of this Agreement may be changed, waived or amended except in a writing signed by the parties. No failure to delay in exercising any right or remedy shall
operate as a waiver, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right or remedy preclude any other exercise of such right or remedy. A waiver in writing of any default shall apply only to the specific default identified in the waiver and shall
not extend to any other defaults, whether or not of a similar nature. 
 22. No-Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is not intended to
confer upon any other person any rights or remedies hereunder.

attachments hereto contain the entire understanding of the parties regarding the Assets. It supersedes all previous agreements and understandings between the parties regarding those matters, other than the Agreement dated March 28, 2005 between
PBSJ and WSD, to which DBD hereby consents. Each party specifically acknowledges and agrees that it has neither made nor relied upon any representation in entering this Agreement other than those specifically set forth above. 
 24. Severability. If any portion of this Agreement is held illegal, unenforceable, void or voidable by any Court, each of the remaining terms hereof will
nevertheless remain in full force and effect of a separate contract. In that event, this Agreement is to be deemed modified and amended to the extent necessary to render it valid and enforceable. 
 25. Incompetence. Each of the parties agrees that, in the event that a party is adjudicated incompetent, this Agreement shall continue in full force and
effect, and the rights and obligations hereunder of the party adjudicated incompetent shall inure to and become the responsibility of the duly appointed guardian of the property of such party. 
 26. Successors and/or Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon the heirs, successors and assigns and legal representatives of the parties hereto, as
if in each and every case they were expressly named. 
  

 6 

 27. Effect and Failure to Enforce. The failure of a party to insist on strict performance of any provision
of this Agreement shall not act as a waiver of any other subsequent breach. 
 28. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws
of the State of Florida. 
 29. Headings and Captions. The headings and captions contained in this Agreement are for purposes of reference only
and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of the terms and provisions of this Agreement.
