You agree to be bound by any promise or covenant imposing the maximum duty permitted by law which is subsumed within the terms of any provision hereof as though it were separately articulated in and made a part of this Agreement, that may result from striking from any of the provisions hereof, or any part of methods of operation, any portion or portions which a court or arbitrator may hold to be unenforceable in a final decision to which we are a party, or from reducing the scope of any promise or covenant to the extent required to comply with such a court order or arbitration award. Such modifications to this Agreement will be effective only in such jurisdiction, unless we elect to give them greater applicability, and will be enforced as originally made and entered into in all other jurisdictions. </P>

<P ALIGN="JUSTIFY"></P>
<P ALIGN="JUSTIFY">(e)  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this section, we and you each have the right in a proper case to obtain temporary restraining orders and temporary or preliminary injunctive relief from a court of competent jurisdiction; provided, however, that we and you must contemporaneously submit our dispute for arbitration on the merits as provided herein.</P>
<P ALIGN="JUSTIFY"></P>
<P ALIGN="JUSTIFY">(f)  The provisions of this section are intended to benefit and bind certain of your third party non-signatories and will continue in full force and effect subsequent to and notwithstanding the expiration or termination of this Agreement.

<B><P ALIGN="JUSTIFY">52.  CONSENT TO JURISDICTION</P>
</B><P ALIGN="JUSTIFY"></P>
<P ALIGN="JUSTIFY">52.1  Subject to section 50 hereof, you and your owners agree that we may institute any action against you or your owners in any state or federal court of general jurisdiction in Nevada, and you (and each owner) irrevocably submit to the jurisdiction of such courts and waive any objection you (or her or she) may have to either the jurisdiction of or venue in such courts. </P>
