agreement of the parties regarding the subject matter hereof, superseding all other
agreements between them, whether oral or written, regarding the subject matter hereof. This
Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of
New Jersey applicable to agreements made and to be entirely performed within the State of
New Jersey, without resort to its conflict of law provisions. The parties agree that any action
at law or in equity arising out of or relating to this Agreement will be filed only in the state
and federal courts located in Hunterdon County, New Jersey. The parties hereby irrevocably
and unconditionally consent and submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts over any
suit, action or proceeding arising out of this Agreement. Neither this Agreement nor any right
or duty under this Agreement may be transferred, assigned or delegated by Licensee, by

attempted transfer, assignment or delegation without such consent will be void and without
effect. Licensor may freely transfer, assign or delegate this Agreement or its rights and duties
under this Agreement. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement will be binding upon and will
inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective representatives, heirs, administrators,
successors and permitted assigns. If any provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal, or
incapable of being enforced by any rule of law or public policy, all other provisions of this
Agreement will nonetheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal
substance of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is not affected in any manner
adverse to any party. Upon such determination that any provision is invalid, illegal, or
incapable of being enforced, the parties will negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement
so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner
to the end that the transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled. Notwithstanding any terms
to the contrary in this Agreement, Licensor may choose to electronically deliver all
communications with Licensee, which may include email to Licensee's email address
indicated in Licensee's communications with Licensor. Licensor's electronic

additional explanation, any notices required under applicable law and any other notices.
