14. APPLICABLE LAW & GENERAL PROVISIONS.
This Agreement is governed by the laws of Finland. All disputes arising from or relating to this Agreement shall be settled by a single arbitrator appointed by the Central Chamber of Commerce of Finland. The arbitration procedure shall take place in Helsinki, Finland in the English language. Some jurisdictions limit venue selection or choice of law provisions under some circumstances, so the above selection may be limited or may not apply. In such cases, the choice of law of Finland and the venue selection of Helsinki, Finland would be enforceable to the greatest extent permitted by law. If any part of this Agreement is found void and unenforceable, it will not affect the validity of the balance of the Agreement, which shall remain valid and enforceable according to its terms. This Agreement may only be modified in writing by an authorized officer of Nokia, although Nokia may vary the terms of this Agreement.

This is the entire agreement between Nokia and You relating to the Software, and it supersedes any prior representations, discussions, undertakings, end-user agreements, communications, or advertising relating to the Software.
