BUYER and SELLER agree that BROKER is hereby released, indemnified, and held harmless under any agreement connected with the purchase of the Business described above. BROKER shall not be liable or responsible for and the BUYER and SELLER hereby indemnify and hold BROKER harmless from and against any and all claims and damages, including all costs and expenses, and reasonable attorney's fees at all levels of any kind that were made or could have been made relating to the above-referenced purchase, including BROKER's referral, recommendation or retention of any vendor or professional on behalf of a party, except for BROKER's intentionally wrongful or grossly negligent acts.

14.6. BROKER'S DISCLAIMER: SELLER and BUYER acknowledge and agree that BROKER is a transactional agent and does not represent either BUYER or SELLER in a fiduciary capacity or as a single agent. The parties acknowledge and agree that all information concerning SELLER'S Business, Assets, and Premises, whether furnished before or after the execution of this Agreement, was and is supplied by SELLER to BUYER. BROKER has not made, nor does BROKER make any warranty or representation as to the genuineness, accuracy, and truthfulness of any and all information of the business, notwithstanding the fact that any such information may have been delivered by BROKER to BUYER and/or BUYER'S representatives, it being understood that in so doing, BROKER has acted merely as a conduit for the information between SELLER and BUYER.

Attorneys' fees include legal assistant fees, expert witness fees, investigative fees, administrative costs, and all other charges billed by the attorney.

All of BROKER'S reasonable attorney's fees, costs and interest at the highest rate allowed by law incurred shall be shared equally between SELLER and BUYER, unless the decision of the Court or other tribunal determines that BROKER was improperly or needlessly made a party solely as a result of the actions of either SELLER or BUYER, in which case such party shall immediately thereafter pay and satisfy all of BROKER'S reasonable attorney's fees and costs incurred.

14.9. GOVERNING LAW/JURISDICTION/JURY TRIAL WAIVER: The laws of the State of Florida (without giving effect to its conflicts of law principles) govern all matters arising out of or relating to this Agreement, including, without limitation, its validity, interpretation, construction, performance, and enforcement. Any Party bringing a legal action or proceeding against any other Party arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall bring the legal action or proceeding in the County of Orange, state of Florida.

14.10. FEES TO BROKER: SELLER acknowledges that BROKER has earned a fee as provided for in a separate Marketing and/or Listing Agreement between SELLER and BROKER, which fee shall be fully paid and satisfied at Closing, and for such limited purpose only, BROKER shall be considered a third-party beneficiary hereunder. In the event SELLER refuses or is unable to close this transaction by reason of SELLER'S default, SELLER shall be liable for and agrees to pay the full agreed fee to BROKER upon demand.
