5. This Consent shall be governed by the laws of the State of California, excluding its conflict of laws principles, in the appropriate state court in the County of Marin, California, or federal court in San Francisco, California. This Consent is the entire understanding between the parties relating to the subject matter referenced herein and supercedes all prior or contemporaneous understandings, whether written or oral. You shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Autodesk, and its directors, officers, employees, agents, shareholders, and representatives, from any claim, action, allegation, damages, or liability (including attorney’s fees) arising or relating to your breach of, or negligent acts or omission relating to, your obligations under this Consent. The foregoing indemnities shall survive expiration or termination of this Consent. You may not assign this Consent, in whole or in part, without Autodesk’s prior written permission. You shall have no power or authority to assume or create any obligation or responsibility on behalf of Autodesk nor may you hold yourself out, by implication or otherwise, as holding such power or authority. This Consent may only be modified, and a party may only waive its rights under this Consent by a written document executed by you and Autodesk. Any failure to enforce any provision of this Consent shall not constitute a waiver thereof or of any other provision hereof. In the event any term of this Consent is found by any court to be void or otherwise unenforceable, the remainder of this Consent shall remain valid and enforceable as though such term were absent.
