Any Dispute Between Us Will Be Governed by United States and Virginia Law

The State and federal courts of Virginia shall be the exclusive forum and venue to resolve any and all disputes arising out of or relating to these Terms and Conditions or the subject matter hereof. You consent to personal jurisdiction and venue in the appropriate court in Virginia.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in these Terms and Conditions, Peak to Peak may at any time seek injunctive or other appropriate relief against you and/or against others, in any state or federal court in the State of Virginia, in the event Peak to Peak believes that there is a violation or threatened violation of any intellectual property rights of Peak to Peak or of any third party, and you hereby consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of such courts.
If any portion of these Terms and Conditions are deemed to be invalid, prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction for any reason unless narrowed by construction, such term or condition shall for purposes of such jurisdiction only, be construed as if such invalid, prohibited or unenforceable term or condition had been more narrowly drawn so as not to be invalid, prohibited or unenforceable (or if such language cannot be drawn narrowly enough, the court making any such determination shall have the power to modify, to the extent necessary to make such term or condition enforceable in such jurisdiction, and such term or condition shall then be applicable in such modified form).  If, notwithstanding the foregoing, any such term or condition would be held to be invalid, prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction for any reason, such term or condition, as to such jurisdiction only, shall be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, prohibition or unenforceability, without invalidating the remaining Terms and Conditions.  No narrowed construction, court-modification or invalidation of any term or condition shall affect the construction, validity or enforceability of such term or condition in any other jurisdiction.
