14. Additional Terms
The Terms and any claims arising out of or relating to the Terms or Your use of the Medical Solutions Sites shall be construed in accordance with and subject to the laws of the State of Nebraska, without reference to its conflict of law principles. You hereby consent to the exclusive personal jurisdiction in any state or federal court or arbitral forum located in Douglas County, Nebraska. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, void or unenforceable, all other provisions shall remain valid and be enforced and construed as if such invalid provision were never a part of this Agreement. The parties hereto agree that this Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Nebraska without reference to its choice of law rules and as if wholly performed within the State of Nebraska. Unless otherwise provided herein, any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be submitted to binding arbitration before the office of Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services (“JAMS”) located in Douglas County, Nebraska, as the exclusive remedy. The parties agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state or federal courts of Nebraska with respect to actions to enforce arbitration or an arbitration award, or any claims where arbitration is not permitted by law. EACH PARTY TO THESE TERMS KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ANY RIGHT THAT IT MAY CLAIM TO A JURY TRIAL ON ANY CLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS. THESE TERMS MAY BE FILED AS A CONSENT BY THE PARTIES TO TRIAL BY THE COURT.

You acknowledge that any breach, threatened or actual, of the Terms will cause irreparable injury to Medical Solutions, such injury would not be quantifiable in monetary damages, and Medical Solutions would not have an adequate remedy at law. You therefore agree that Medical Solutions shall be entitled, in addition to other available remedies, to seek and be awarded an injunction or other appropriate equitable relief from a court of competent jurisdiction restraining any breach, threatened or actual, of your obligations under any provision of the Terms. Accordingly, You hereby waive any requirement that Medical Solutions post any bond or other security in the event any injunctive or equitable relief is sought by or awarded to Medical Solutions to enforce any provision of the Terms.

You may not assign Your rights or obligations to any other person or entity without Medical Solutions’ prior written consent.

No waiver, delay or failure by Medical Solutions with respect to any right or provision under the Terms shall be deemed a waiver of any other provision, or constitute a continuing waiver.

If any provision (or part thereof) contained in the Terms is determined to be void, invalid, or otherwise unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction or on account of a conflict with an applicable government regulation, such determination shall not affect the remaining provisions (or parts thereof) contained herein and the illegal, invalid, or unenforceable clause shall be modified in compliance with applicable law in a manner that most closely matches the intent of the original language.
No joint venture, partnership, employment, or agency relationship exists between you and Medical Solutions as result of the Terms or your use of the Medical Solutions Sites.

The headings within the Terms are for convenience of reference only and are not to be considered in construing this Agreement.

The Terms represent the entire agreement between You and Medical Solutions with respect to use of the Medical Solutions Sites, and it supersedes all prior or contemporaneous communications and proposals, whether electronic, oral, or written between you and Medical Solutions that govern Your use of or access to the Medical Solutions Sites. However, in the event You are or were an employee of Medical Solutions, the terms of any employment policies or written agreements signed with the requisite authority from Medical Solutions relating to Your employment with Medical Solutions (including any arbitration agreements) shall control to the extent deemed inconsistent with the Terms.
