11.3. Counterparts. The Transaction Documents may be executed in counterparts, all of which taken together shall constitute one single agreement between the Parties.

11.4. Relationship of Parties. The Parties are independent contractors, bound to each other only as provided for herein. Neither Party has the authority to bind, act on behalf of or represent the other. Nothing in the Transaction Documents creates a relationship of partnership, employer and employee, principal and agent, master and servant, or franchisor and franchisee. Neither Party shall act or fail to act in a way that could reasonably cause others to believe that it has authority to act on behalf of the other beyond the authority expressly granted herein.

11.5. Severability and Modification.

(a) In the event that any provision of the Transaction Documents conflicts with the law under which the Transaction Documents are to be construed or if any such provision is held invalid by an arbitrator or a court with jurisdiction over the Parties, such provision shall be deemed to be modified to reflect as nearly as possible the original intentions of the Parties in accordance with applicable law. The remainder of the Transaction Documents shall remain in full force and effect.

(b) If any state or federal body of competent jurisdiction determines that any provision of the Transaction Documents violates any applicable rules, policies, or regulations, both Parties shall make reasonable efforts to promptly bring the Transaction Documents into compliance and shall endeavor in those efforts to preserve for both Parties the economic benefits as reflected in the Transaction Documents to the maximum extent possible.

11.6. Consents and Approval. Except where expressly provided as being in the sole discretion of a Party, where agreement, approval, acceptance, consent, or similar action by either Party is required under the Transaction Documents, such action shall not be unreasonably delayed, conditioned or withheld. An approval or consent given by a Party under the Transaction Documents shall not relieve the other Party from responsibility for complying with the requirements of the Transaction Documents, nor shall it be construed as a waiver of any rights under the Transaction Documents, except as and to the extent otherwise expressly provided in such approval or consent.

11.7. Waiver of Default. No waiver or discharge hereof shall be valid unless in writing and signed by an authorized representative of the Party against which such amendment, waiver, or discharge is sought to be enforced. A delay or omission by either Party hereto to exercise any right or power under the Transaction Documents shall not be construed to be a waiver thereof. A waiver by either of the Parties of any of the covenants to be performed by the other or any breach thereof shall not be construed to be a waiver of any succeeding breach thereof or of any other covenant.

11.8. Cumulative Remedies. Except as otherwise expressly provided, all remedies provided for in the Transaction Documents shall be cumulative and in addition to and not in lieu of any other remedies available to either Party at law, in equity or otherwise.

11.9. Survival. Any provision of the Transaction Documents which contemplates performance or observance subsequent to any termination or expiration of the Transaction Documents (in whole or in part) shall survive any termination or expiration of the Transaction Documents (in whole or in part, as applicable) and continue in full force and effect.

11.10. Public Disclosures. Any public use of a Party’s name, trademark, service mark or trade dress, as well as all media releases, public announcements, and public disclosures relating to this Agreement or the subject matter of this Agreement, including promotional or marketing material, but not including announcements intended solely for internal distribution or disclosures to the extent required to meet legal or regulatory requirements beyond the reasonable control of the disclosing Party, shall be coordinated with and shall be subject to the prior written approval by each Party prior to release.

11.11. Third Party Beneficiaries. Except as otherwise provided in the Transaction Documents, the Transaction Documents shall not be deemed to create any rights in third parties, suppliers, or other customers of a Party, or to create any obligations of a Party to any such third parties, or to give any right to either Party to enforce this Agreement on behalf of a third party.

11.12. Governing Law and Venue. The Transaction Documents and performance under them shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida, without regard to its choice of law principles or the Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. The exclusive venue for any legal proceeding arising from or related to the Transaction Documents is the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida or the Florida State courts. Each party irrevocably waives the defense of an inconvenient forum with respect to any such action or proceeding, and agrees that service of process in any such action or proceeding may be made upon such Party by mailing a copy thereof to such Party at its address set forth herein as well as by any other lawful method.

11.13. Amendment. The Transaction Documents shall not be modified, amended or in any way altered except by an instrument in writing signed by both Parties.
