The TOS constitute the entire agreement between you and

between you and Krascar. You also may be subject to additional terms and
conditions that may apply when you use affiliate services, third-party content
or third-party software. The TOS and the relationship between you and Krascar

conflict of law provisions. You and Krascar agree to submit to the personal and
exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located within the county of Santa Clara,

effect to the parties' intentions as reflected in the provision, and the other
provisions of the TOS remain in full force and effect. You agree that
regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action
arising out of or related to use of the Service or the TOS must be filed within
