These TOU constitute the entire agreement between the parties and supersede all other agreements, statements, and other arrangements between the parties in relation to the subject matter hereof. If any provision of these TOU is held by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction, to be invalid, void, or unenforceable, such provision shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary and replaced with a valid provision that best embodies the intent of these TOU, so that these TOU shall remain in full force and effect.

No agency, partnership, joint venture, employee-employer or franchiser-franchisee relationship is intended or created by these TOU. No modification, alteration or waiver of any of the provisions of these TOU will be effective unless in writing and signed on behalf of each of the parties. No waiver of any of these TOU shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or any other term, and Itasca’s failure to assert any right or provision under these TOU shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. You agree that the Service shall be deemed solely based in Minnesota, United States of America and the Service shall be deemed a passive Service that does not give rise to personal jurisdiction over Itasca in jurisdictions other than Minnesota. These TOU are governed by United States and Minnesota law, without regard to conflict of law provisions, and the parties submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Hennepin County, Minnesota in relation to any dispute between them arising out of the subject matter of these TOU.
