If you want to terminate this Agreement, you may do so at any time by destroying all graphics, patterns, and/or other media files in your possession.

Neither party will be entitled to damages as a result of termination of this Agreement as provided herein.

8. Illegal Use:

By using the graphics, patterns, and/or other media files, you represent and warrant that (i) you are not located in a country that is subject to a U.S. Government embargo, or that has been designated by the U.S. Government as a “terrorist supporting” country and (ii) you are not listed on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties. You also will not use the graphics, patterns, and/or other media files for any purpose prohibited by U.S. law, including the development, design, manufacture or production of missiles, nuclear, chemical or biological weapons, child trafficking, or pornography. You acknowledge and agree that products, services or technology provided by Jen Tennille Illustration and Design are subject to the export control laws and regulations of the United
States. You shall comply with these laws and regulations and shall not, without prior U.S. government authorization, export, re-export, or transfer Jen Tennille Illustration and Design products, services or technology, either directly or indirectly, to any country in violation of such laws and regulations.

9. General Provisions:

This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between you and Jen Tennille Illustration and Design regarding the use of the graphics, patterns, and/or other media files. Jen Tennille Illustration and Designs’ failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of this Agreement shall not
operate as a waiver of such right or provision. The section titles in this Agreement are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect. Your relationship to Jen Tennille Illustration and Design is that of an independent contractor, and neither party is an agent or partner of
the other. This Agreement, and your rights and obligations herein, may not be assigned, subcontracted, delegated, or otherwise transferred by you without Jen Tennille Illustration and Designs’ prior written consent, and any attempted assignment, subcontract, delegation, or transfer in
violation of the foregoing will be null and void. The terms of this Agreement shall be binding upon assignees. If any provision of this Agreement is found illegal or unenforceable, the legality and
enforceability of the other provisions of the Agreement will not be affected. Your use of the graphics, patterns, and/or other media files must be in compliance with all applicable law, including but not limited to, laws and regulations relating to export, currency, and the law of moral rights. This license will expressly not be governed by the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. No failure of either party to exercise or enforce any of its rights hereunder will serve as a waiver of such rights. This Agreement shall be governed in all respects by the laws of the State of Washington, excluding its' body of law relating to conflicts of law, and excluding the issue of copyright, including its validity, interpretation, performance, breach, or other matter. Any and all
disputes, controversies, demands, counts, claims, or causes of action arising under this Agreement, with the above exceptions, shall be settled by arbitration pursuant to the rules of the American Arbitration Association. Judgment upon any arbitration award may be entered in the highest court having jurisdiction as provided herein. Jen Tennille Illustration and Design reserves the right to pursue any claim or controversy relating to intellectual property rights, not by arbitration, but by a court located in the State of Washington. In the event that either a court of competent jurisdiction directs us to go to court, or the matter involves copyright, you agree to fully reimburse Jen Tennille Illustration and Design for its reasonable legal fees, costs, and disbursements if Jen Tennille Illustration and Design is successful in the suit. Jen Tennille Illustration and Design reserves the right to seek an injunction to prevent breach of your obligation to Jen Tennille Illustration and Designs’ intellectual property rights.

10. Arbitration:

Arbitration shall be subject to the Federal Arbitration Act and not state arbitration law. The arbitration shall be conducted before one commercial arbitrator with substantial experience in resolving similar disputes. The matter may be arbitrated either by JAMS or the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), as mutually agreed upon by the parties or selected by the party filing the claim. As modified by this Agreement, unless agreed upon by the parties in writing, the conduct of the arbitration shall be subject to the then current rules of JAMS or AAA (whichever is arbitrating the dispute), for commercial arbitration and, if the arbitrator deems it appropriate, consumer disputes. You are thus GIVING UP YOUR RIGHT TO GO TO COURT to assert or defend your rights EXCEPT for matters that may be taken to small claims court. Your rights will be determined by a NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR and NOT a judge or jury. You are entitled to a FAIR HEARING, BUT the arbitration procedures are SIMPLER AND MORE LIMITED THAN RULES APPLICABLE IN COURT. Arbitrator decisions are as enforceable as any court order and are subject to VERY LIMITED REVIEW BY A COURT. You and Jen Tennille Illustration and Design must abide by the following rules: (a) at your election, any in-person arbitration hearing will take place in the federal judicial district of Jen Tennille Illustration and Design; (b) if your claim is for $10,000 or less, instead of an in-person hearing, you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents or through a telephonic hearing; (c) the arbitrator’s ruling is binding and not merely advisory; (d) ANY CLAIMS BROUGHT BY YOU OR JEN TENNILLE ILLUSTRATION AND DESIGN MUST BE BROUGHT IN THE PARTIES’ INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING; (e) THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS, AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS PROCEEDING, (f) THE ARBITRATOR SHALL NOT AWARD CLASS-WIDE RELIEF; (g) Jen Tennille Illustration and Design will pay the arbitration costs as required by the rules of JAMS or AAA (depending upon which is arbitrating the dispute), (h) the arbitrator may award any damages or other relief or remedies
(including attorneys’ fees and costs) that are permitted by applicable law; and (i) each side pays his, her or its own attorneys’ fees and costs unless the claim(s) at-issue permit the prevailing party to be paid its fees’ and litigation costs, and in such instance any fees’ and costs awarded by the arbitrator shall be determined by applicable law, statute, regulation, or case law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either you or Jen Tennille Illustration and Design may bring an individual action in small claims court. Further, claims of infringement or misappropriation of the other party’s patent, copyright, trademark, or trade secret shall not be subject to this arbitration agreement. Such claims shall be exclusively brought in the state or federal courts located in the State of Washington. With the exception of subparts (d) - (f) in the paragraph above (prohibiting arbitration on a class or collective basis), if any part of this arbitration provision is deemed to be invalid, unenforceable or illegal, then the balance of this arbitration provision shall remain in effect and shall be construed in accordance with its terms as if the invalid, unenforceable, or illegal provision were not contained. If, however, subparts (d) - (f) are found to be invalid, unenforceable or illegal, then the entirety of this arbitration provision shall be null and void, and neither you nor Jen Tennille Illustration and Design shall be entitled to arbitration. In the event this agreement to arbitrate is held unenforceable, or in the event both AAA and JAMS refuse to arbitrate the Dispute, all controversies, disputes, demands, counts, claims, or causes of action between Jen Tennille Illustration and Design and you shall be exclusively brought in the state or federal courts located in the State of Washington.
