11.8 Venue; Waiver of Jury Trial.  The state and Federal courts located in Santa Clara County, California shall have exclusive jurisdiction to adjudicate any dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement.  Each party hereby consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts and waives any objection it might otherwise have to venue, personal jurisdiction, inconvenience of forum, and any similar or related doctrine.  Each party also hereby waives any right to jury trial in connection with any action or litigation in any way arising out of or related to this Agreement.
