This Agreement is construed under the Law of the Federal Republic of Germany.
Therefore, any and all controversies resulting out of this Agreement shall be

jurisdiction for both parties shall be Munich, Germany.
In case that one or several of the terms of this Agreement should be or become

unenforceable condition by another legally effective provision meeting the
purpose of the abolished provision to the greatest extent. The same applies in
case of a gap of regulation.
