## Opinion text

CONCURRING STATEMENT BY
TODD, J.:
¶ 1 I agree with the Majority’s analysis and conclusion that the forum selection clause at issue was an inadequate expression of consent by Appellants to the exercise of personal jurisdiction over them by the Iowa courts. I would not, however, reach the issue of whether the Iowa courts nonetheless constitutionally exerted personal jurisdiction over Appellants under the state’s long-arm statute, as I find that Appellee has disavowed this alternative basis for jurisdiction. (See Appellee’s Brief at 5 (“Appellants’ argument that they have ‘had no significant contact with Iowa’ is irrelevant to this case because the Iowa Court’s jurisdiction is based upon the forum selection clause set forth in the Lease.”).) Accordingly, I concur in the result reached by the Majority.
