Franchisee understands that it is solely responsible for ascertaining what actions it must take to comply with the Anti-Terrorism Laws. Any misrepresentation by Franchisee under this Section or any violation of the Anti-Terrorism Laws by Franchisee, its principals, its employees, or their respective affiliates shall constitute grounds for immediate termination of this Agreement, and any other Agreement Franchisee has entered into with Franchisor or one of Franchisor's affiliates.
