These Terms shall be governed in all respects by the laws of the State of Colorado and Influencer agrees that unless otherwise indicated by the Grizzly Rose any action arising from or relating to these Terms shall be brought exclusively in a state or federal court located in Denver, Colorado. Should any provisions of these Terms be held by a court of law to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable, the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of these Terms shall not be affected or impaired thereby. The waiver by either party of a breach of any provision of these Terms by the other party shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any other or subsequent breach by the other party.

These Terms may only be changed by mutual agreement of authorized representatives of the parties in writing.
