Reseller will ensure that subcontractors will not refer to itself as a “Google AdWords Premier SMB Partner”.”

2.
Miscellaneous. This Amendment may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument.  No agreement hereafter made shall be effected to change, modify, or discharge this Amendment, in whole or in part, unless such agreement is in writing and signed by or on behalf of the party against whom the enforcement of the change, modification, or discharge is sought.  This Amendment shall be binding on the parties hereto and their respective personal and legal representatives, successors, and permitted assigns.  Each person whose signature appears below represents and warrants that he or she has the authority to bind the entity on whose behalf he or she has executed this Amendment.  Except as expressly modified herein, the terms of the Addendum remain in full force and effect.
