Dispute Resolution and Mandatory Arbitration
All disputes, claims and controversies relating in any way to your use of the Sites or Content, or to any products or services sold or distributed by such Sites, or otherwise arising out of or relating to these Terms of Use will be resolved by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association in accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. A request for arbitration must be filed within the time period specified above under "Contractual Statute of Limitations." In no event shall demand for arbitration be permitted after the date when the institution of legal or equitable proceedings based on such Dispute would be barred by the applicable statute of limitations. The parties agree that any dispute resolution proceedings will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated or representative action. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration the parties each waive any right to a jury trial. The parties agree that either party may bring suit in court to enjoin infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights, or for the collection of delinquent accounts receivable.
Claims shall be heard by a single arbitrator. Such individual shall (i) have been selected from the AAA's list of potential arbitrators, (ii) have at least 10 years of experience in the discipline which is the subject of the Dispute, and (iii) be an attorney whose 10 years of experience has been in the realm of litigating and arbitrating issues which are of the subject of the Dispute. If the parties fail to mutually agree upon an arbitrator within 15 business days after receipt of the request to arbitrate, then the arbitration panel shall be selected by the administrative office of the AAA. Such office shall, within five days after notice by any party to these Terms of Use, select a single arbitrator who complies with the requirements otherwise set forth in this paragraph.
The place of arbitration shall be Sacramento County, California. The arbitration shall be governed by the laws of the State of California. Hearings will take place pursuant to the standard procedures of the Commercial Arbitration Rules that contemplate in person hearings. Time is of the essence for any arbitration under this agreement and arbitration hearings shall take place within 90 days of filing and awards rendered within 120 days. Arbitrator(s) shall agree to these limits prior to accepting appointment. The arbitrators will have no authority to award punitive or other damages not measured by the prevailing party's actual damages, except as may be required by statute. The arbitrator(s) shall not award consequential damages in any arbitration initiated under this section. Any award in an arbitration initiated under this clause shall be limited to monetary damages and shall include no injunction or direction to any party other than the direction to pay a monetary amount. The standard provisions of the Commercial Arbitration Rules shall apply. Arbitrators will have the authority to allocate the costs of the arbitration process among the parties, but will only have the authority to allocate attorneys' fees if a particular law permits them to do so. The award of the arbitrators shall be accompanied by a reasoned opinion. Except as may be required by law, neither a party nor an arbitrator may disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration hereunder without the prior written consent of both parties. The parties agree that failure or refusal of a party to pay its required share of the deposits for arbitrator compensation or administrative charges shall constitute a waiver by that party to present evidence or cross-examine witness. In such event, the other party shall be required to present evidence and legal argument as the arbitrator(s) may require for the making of an award. Such waiver shall not allow for a default judgment against the non-paying party in the absence of evidence presented as provided for above. Notwithstanding any language to the contrary, the parties hereby agree that the Underlying Award may be appealed pursuant to the AAA's Optional Appellate Arbitration Rules ("Appellate Rules"); that the Underlying Award rendered by the arbitrator(s) shall, at a minimum, be a reasoned award; and that the Underlying Award shall not be considered final until after the time for filing the notice of appeal pursuant to the Appellate Rules has expired. Appeals must be initiated within thirty (30) days of receipt of an Underlying Award, as defined by Rule A-3 of the Appellate Rules, by filing a Notice of Appeal with any AAA office. Following the appeal process the decision rendered by the appeal tribunal may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.
Choice of Law; Severability
These Terms of Use shall be governed by the laws of the States of California and Oregon, U.S.A. (regardless of the laws that might be applicable under its principles of conflict of laws). Each party submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of that place. If any provision of these Terms of Use, or the application thereof, is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability will not affect the other provisions of these Terms of Use, all of which shall remain in full force and effect, and such other provisions will be interpreted so as best to reasonably effect the intent of the parties. The parties further agree to replace any such invalid or unenforceable provision with a valid and enforceable provision designed to achieve, to the extent possible under applicable law, the business purpose and intent of such invalid or unenforceable provision. The laws of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods shall not apply.
