of executing the release, which if known by him must have materi-
ally affected his settlement with the debtor.”
K. GOVERNING LAW
Except to the extent expressly provided in the following para-
graph, this Agreement and the relationship between you and
MAT, and all transactions through the Application shall be
governed by the laws of the State of Illinois, excluding its con-
flicts of law provisions. You and MAT agree to submit to the
personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located within
Lake County, Illinois, to resolve any dispute or claim arising from
this Agreement. If (a) you are not a U.S. citizen; (b) you do not
reside in the U.S.; (c) you are not accessing the Service from the

respect to the same subject matter between you and MAT. You
also may be subject to additional terms and conditions that may
apply when you use MAT’s website, affiliate services, third-party
content, third-party software, or additional services. If any part of
this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable, that portion shall
be construed in a manner consistent with applicable law to reflect,

be responsible for failures to fulfill any obligations due to causes
beyond its control.
