will- confer jurisdiction for a cause of action for breach of that contract.” Authority from other jurisdictions also supports this conclusion. For example, in Agency Rent A Car System, Inc. v. Grand Rent A Car, Corp., 98 F.3d 25 (2nd Cir. 1996), a New York-based rental-car franchisor filed' a declaratory judgment action in New York against its out-of-state franchisees seeking a declaration' that it would not breach its licensing agreements with the franchisees by competing with them in their respective states. The Second Circuit, construing a long-arm statute essentially identical to Virginia’s, held that the franchisees were subject to personal jurisdiction in New York because they had “transacted business” under New York’s long-arm statute by, among other 3, 779 (S.D.Ohio 1999) (<HOLDING>). But see Martin E. Segal Co. v. Barton, 612
