15. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. Because disputes arising in connection with commercial matters are most quickly and economically resolved by an experienced and expert person and the parties wish applicable state and federal laws to apply (rather than arbitration rules), the parties desire that their disputes (if any) be resolved by a judge applying such applicable laws.

No waiver by any Party of any default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder, whether intentional or not, shall be deemed to extend to any prior or subsequent default, misrepresentation or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder or affect in any way any rights arising by virtue of any prior or subsequent such occurrence.

21. SEVERABILITY OR PARTIAL INVALIDITY. Any term or provision of this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction. If the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction declares that any term or provision hereof is invalid or unenforceable, the Parties agree that the court making the determination of invalidity or unenforceability shall have the power to reduce the scope, duration, or area of the term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision and this Agreement shall be enforceable as so modified after the expiration of the time within which the judgment may be appealed.

If any Party to this Agreement shall bring any action for any relief against the other, declaratory or otherwise, arising out of this Agreement, the losing Party shall pay to the prevailing Party its actual attorneys fees and all costs incurred in bringing such suit an/or enforcing any judgment granted therein, all of which shall be deemed to have accrued upon the commencement of such action and shall be paid whether or not such action is prosecuted to judgment.

For the purposes of this Section, attorney’s fees shall include, without limitation, fees incurred in the following:
