MISCELLANEOUS

Controlling Law; Disputes Resolution; Waiver of Jury Trial.

This Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware exclusive of conflict or choice-of-law rules. The parties specifically agree that the 1980 United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods, as may be amended from time to time, does not apply to this Agreement. The parties hereby consent to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the Federal and state courts located in the State of Delaware.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, except with respect to enforcing claims for injunctive or equitable relief, the parties shall submit any dispute, claim or controversy arising from or related in any way to this Agreement or the interpretation, application, breach, termination or validity hereof, or any other aspect of the relationship between August Schools and Customer or their respective Affiliates, including without limitation any claim of inducement of this Agreement by fraud and a determination of the scope or applicability of this agreement to arbitrate, for resolution by binding arbitration in accordance with the Comprehensive Arbitration Rules & Procedures of JAMS. The arbitration is to be held at the JAMS location nearest to August Schools’ headquarters and conducted in the English language. The parties shall maintain the confidential nature of the arbitration proceeding and any award, including the hearing, except as may be necessary to prepare for or conduct the arbitration hearing on the merits, or except as may be necessary in connection with a court application for a preliminary remedy, a judicial challenge to an award or its enforcement, or unless otherwise required by law or judicial decision. The arbitrator has the authority to award compensatory damages only and not the authority to award any punitive, exemplary, or multiple damages, and the parties waive any right to recover any such damages. Judgment on any award in arbitration may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding the above, each party has recourse to any court of competent jurisdiction to enforce claims for injunctive and other equitable relief.

IN THE EVENT OF ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN THE PARTIES, WHETHER IT RESULTS IN PROCEEDINGS IN ANY COURT IN ANY JURISDICTION OR IN ARBITRATION, THE PARTIES HEREBY KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY, AND HAVING HAD AN OPPORTUNITY TO CONSULT WITH COUNSEL, WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY, AND AGREE THAT ANY AND ALL MATTERS SHALL BE DECIDED BY A JUDGE OR ARBITRATOR WITHOUT A JURY TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMISSIBLE UNDER APPLICABLE LAW.

Force Majeure. Any delay in the performance of any duties or obligations of either party (except the payment of Fees owed) will not be considered a breach of this Agreement if such delay is caused by a labor dispute, shortage of materials, fire, earthquake, flood, or any other event beyond the control of such party, provided that such party uses reasonable efforts, under the circumstances, to notify the other party of the cause of such delay and to resume performance as soon as possible.
