For purposes of this section, a disparaging statement or representation is any communication which, if publicized to another, would cause or tend to cause the recipient of the communication to question the business condition, integrity, competence, good character, or product quality of the person or entity to whom the communication relates. If Licensee breaches its non-disparagement obligations, Licensee shall pay to BCBB or DWM an amount equal to EUR 1000,00 (one thousand euro) for each such independent breach. The Parties intend that such amount constitutes compensation and not a penalty. The Parties acknowledge and agree harm caused by a breach necessitating such compensation would be impossible or very difficult to accurately estimate and that such compensation is a reasonable estimate of the anticipated or actual harm that might arise from such breach. Except for equitable remedies, including injunctive relief, the right to terminate this Agreement, and the right to seek attorneys’ fees and costs as provided in this Agreement, Licensee’s payment of such compensation is Licensee’s sole liability and entire obligation for any such corresponding breaches. On request, Licensee agrees to promptly provide BCBB or DWM with all necessary records to carry out the intent of this paragraph, including providing documents that may be necessary to calculate the damages.

7. Insurance. During the Term and for a period of one year after expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason, Licensee shall, at its own expense, maintain and carry insurance in full force and effect with financially sound and reputable insurers, that includes but is not limited to, commercial general liability with limits no less than those customary for Licensee's industry and/or profession, which policy will include contractual liability coverage insuring the activities of Licensee under this Agreement.

8. Behavior; Policies; School. All information the Licensee provides to BCBB and/or DWM shall be truthful, accurate, and complete. Licensee acknowledges that, to operate effectively, BCBB and/or DWM must have a positive relationship with Licensee, built on mutual trust, respect, and cooperation. BCBB and DWM each reserve the right to terminate this Agreement or suspend any of Licensee's credentials, in its sole discretion, for any unacceptable behavior, lack of cooperation, lack of respect, inebriation during training, cheating, breach of this Agreement, the Code of Conduct, or breach of any BCBB or DWM policy. If Licensee is a student of BCBB or DWM, BCBB or DWM has the sole discretion to pass or fail Licensee, and Licensee shall not be entitled to any refund.

9. Term, Termination, and Survival.

Any right or obligation of the Parties in this Agreement which, by its nature, should survive termination or expiration of this Agreement, will survive any such termination or expiration, including but not limited to, those Sections dealing with indemnification, confidentiality, non-disparagement, and limitation of liability.

Licensee covenants not to make or bring any such claim against Releasees, and forever release and discharge the Releasees from liability under such claims. This waiver and release does not extend to claims for gross negligence, willful misconduct, or any other liabilities that cannot be released by agreement.

Neither Party shall have any express or implied right or authority to assume or create any obligations on behalf of or in the name of the other Party or to bind the other Party to any contract, agreement, or undertaking with any third party.

15. Force Majeure. No Party shall be liable or responsible to the other Party, or be deemed to have defaulted under or breached this Agreement, for any failure or delay in fulfilling or performing any term of this Agreement (except for any obligations of the Licensee to make payments to BCBB or DWM under this Agreement), when and to the extent such failure or delay is caused by or results from acts beyond the impacted party's reasonable control, including, without limitation, the following force majeure events: (1) acts of God; (2) flood, fire, earthquake, epidemics, pandemics, and other catastrophes; or explosion; (3) war, invasion, hostilities (whether war is declared or not), terrorist threats or acts, riot or other civil unrest; (4) government order, law, or actions; (5) embargoes or blockades in effect on or after the date of this Agreement; and (6) national or regional emergency.

16. Severability. If any term or provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision of this Agreement or invalidate or render unenforceable such term or provision in any other jurisdiction. Upon a determination that any term or provision is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the Parties direct the court to modify this Agreement to give effect to the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in order that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible. In the event any court finds any timer period, geographic scope, scope of activity, or any definition in this Agreement to be overly broad, such term shall be substituted for language the court deems reasonable.

17. General. Each of the Parties shall execute and deliver such additional documents, instruments, conveyances, and assurances and take such further actions as may be reasonably required to carry out the provisions of this Agreement. Each Party shall deliver all communications in writing either in person, by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested and postage prepaid, by email or facsimile (with confirmation of transmission), or by recognized overnight courier service, and addressed to the other Party at the addresses set forth above (or to such other address that the receiving Party may designate from time to time in accordance with this Section). This Agreement and all matters arising out of or relating to this Agreement, including tort and statutory claims are governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of Missouri, without giving effect to any conflict of laws provisions that would result in the application of the laws of a different jurisdiction. The Parties agree that this Agreement is drafted in the English language. Each Party accepts and approves the English version of the Agreement signed by both Parties as controlling in any dispute among the Parties arising from or related to the Agreement. Either Party shall institute any legal suit, action, or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in the federal or state courts in each case located in Missouri. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY: (A) CONSENTS AND SUBMITS TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE AFOREMENTIONED COURTS; (B) WAIVES ANY OBJECTION TO THAT CHOICE OF FORUM BASED ON VENUE OR TO THE EFFECT THAT THE FORUM IS NOT CONVENIENT; and (C) WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY. This Agreement contains the entire understanding of the Parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous written or oral understandings, agreements, representations, and warranties with respect to such subject matter. The Parties may not amend this Agreement except by written instrument signed by the Parties. No waiver of any right, remedy, power, or privilege under this Agreement ("Right(s)") is effective unless contained in a writing signed by the Party charged with such waiver. No failure to exercise, or delay in exercising, any Right operates as a waiver thereof. No single or partial exercise of any Right precludes any other or further exercise of any Right or the exercise of any other Right. The Rights under this Agreement are cumulative and are in addition to any other rights and remedies available at law or in equity or otherwise. Licensee may not directly or indirectly assign, transfer, or delegate any of or all of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, voluntarily or involuntarily, including by change of control, merger, operation of law, or any other manner, without the prior written consent of the other Party. Any purported assignment or delegation in violation of this Section shall be null and void. This Agreement is binding upon and inures to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Except for the Parties, their successors and permitted assigns, there are no third-party beneficiaries under this Agreement. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts. In the event that any Party institutes any legal suit, action, or proceeding against the other Party arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the substantially prevailing Party shall be entitled to receive, in addition to all other damages to which it may be entitled, the costs incurred by such party in conducting the suit, action, or proceeding, including actual attorneys' fees, expenses, and court costs.
