The TOU and the relationship between you and us shall be governed by the laws of the State of Illinois USA without regard to its conflict of law provisions. You and us agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located within the county of Cook, Illinois, USA.

The failure of us to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the TOU shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
