Any arbitration shall be conducted in Hennepin County, Minnesota.

You hereby irrevocably consent to non-exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the State and Federal courts of the State of Minnesota with respect to any such injunctive or other relief. You further acknowledge that IAYConsulting’s rights in its intellectual property are of a special, unique, extraordinary character, giving those rights peculiar value, the unauthorized use, disclosure, or loss of which cannot be readily estimated and may not be adequately compensated for in monetary damages.

If any part of this Agreement is unlawful, void, or unenforceable, that part will be deemed severable, shall be modified by the arbitrator or, where an action in court is allowed as stated in this Section of the Agreement, court of competent jurisdiction to reflect to the maximum extent possible the original intention of the parties as dictated by the original wording, and will not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions.
