      Company agrees to allow Tatum to use the Company’s logo and name on Tatum’s

      terms
      of this agreement are severable and may not be amended except in a writing
      signed by the parties.  If any portion of this agreement is found to
      be unenforceable, the rest of this agreement will be enforceable except to
      the

      of its bargain.

      agreement will be governed by and construed in all respects in accordance with
      the laws of the State of California, without giving effect to conflicts-of-laws
