9. I expressly acknowledge and agree that all rights under Section 1542 of the California Civil Code are expressly waived. That section provides:

A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS THAT THE CREDITOR OR RELEASING PARTY DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE AND THAT, IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER, WOULD HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR OR RELEASED PARTY.

10. Force Majeure. Releasees shall not be deemed in breach of this Waiver if Releasees are unable to provide all of the Activities or any portion thereof by reason of fire, earthquake, labor dispute, act of God or public enemy, epidemic, pandemic, death, illness or incapacity of Releasees or any local, state, federal, national or international law, governmental order or regulation or any other event beyond Releasees’ control (collectively, “Force Majeure Event”). Upon occurrence of any Force Majeure Event, Releasees shall give notice to You of its inability to perform or of delay in completing the Activities and shall propose revisions to the schedule for completion of the Activities or other accommodations, or may terminate this Waiver.
11. General Provisions. This Waiver will be governed by the laws of Missouri. You agree to submit to the jurisdiction and venue of the state and federal courts in or nearest to Black, Missouri, and waive any defense of lack of personal jurisdiction or forum non conveniens. If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement will remain in full force and the invalid or unenforceable provision will be replaced by a valid or enforceable provision. The prevailing party in any dispute between the parties arising out of or related to this agreement, whether resolved by negotiation, mediation, or litigation, shall be entitled to recover its attorneys’ fees and costs from the other party.

You expressly agree that the Waiver is intended to be as broad and inclusive as permitted by the law of the State of Missouri. This release is not intended as an attempted release of claims of gross negligence or intentional acts by Releasees.

This is the entire agreement of the parties, and reflects a complete understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter. This agreement supersedes all prior written and oral representations.
