8.          Reports. The Trustee is authorized and instructed to prepare and file any reports with respect to the Securities as may be required under any applicable federal or state securities laws. Telebrands shall reasonably cooperate with the Trustee in connection with the preparation and filing of any such reports.

 

9.          Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and shall be construed and interpreted in accordance with, the laws of the State of Florida without giving effect to the conflicts of law provisions thereof.
