Disputes/Arbitration. If you and we have a disagreement related to Services, we'll try to resolve it by talking with each other. If we can't resolve it that way, WE BOTH AGREE, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, TO USE ARBITRATION, NOT LAWSUITS (except for small claims court cases as described below) TO RESOLVE THE DISPUTE. Of course, either of us can always contact a government agency or regulatory authority for help, too. Here's how private arbitration will work: You agree that, apart from any claim you may bring in small claims court, the sole and exclusive forum and remedy for any and all disputes and claims that cannot be resolved informally and that relate in any way to or arise out of your use of the Services or relating to this Agreement or any prior agreement for service with us or any of our affiliates, predecessors in interest, or Third Party Service Providers or any product or service provided under or in connection with this Agreement or such a prior agreement, or any advertising for such products or Services, shall be final and binding arbitration, except to the extent that you have in any manner infringed upon or violated or threatened to infringe upon or violate any patent, copyright, trademark, trade secret, privacy or publicity rights, in which case you acknowledge that there is no adequate remedy at law and that injunctive or other appropriate relief may be sought by us and/or an applicable third party either in court or from an arbitrator. You and we acknowledge that this Agreement affects interstate commerce and that the Federal Arbitration Act and other federal arbitration law apply to arbitrations under this Agreement (despite any other choice of law provision). To the extent that the Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law do not supply substantive law necessary for the resolution of any disputes or claims, the laws of the State of Texas shall apply, except that Texas laws concerning choice of law or conflicts shall not apply if they would cause the substantive law of another jurisdiction to apply. To the extent that the parties litigate any part of any dispute or claim in court, including, without limitation, obtaining provisional remedies in aid or arbitration, confirmation of an award, and judgment enforcement, the laws of the State of Texas shall apply, except that Texas laws concerning choice of law or conflict of laws shall not apply if they would cause the substantive law of another jurisdiction to apply. For claims over $10,000, the American Arbitration Association's Wireless Industry Arbitration ("WIA") rules shall apply.

You expressly waive the right to request or maintain any class arbitrations even if AAA, NAF or BBB procedures or rules would permit them (this is referred to below as the "Class Action Waiver"). In exchange for this, we'll pay (if you ask us in advance) for any filing fee charged you by the AAA, NAF or BBB for one arbitration of any disputes between us, so long as you tried in good faith to resolve the disputes with us before filing for arbitration. If the arbitration proceeds past the filing, we'll also pay (if you ask us at the time) any further administrative and arbitrator fees you are later charged. An arbitrator can decide later whether to allocate the fees differently if there's an award. The arbitrator may award you any fees and charges that are necessary to ensure the enforceability of this arbitration provision. There's no judge or jury in arbitration, and review is limited, but an arbitrator can award the same damages and relief, and must honor the same limitations in this Agreement as a court would. You and we agree to pay our own fees, costs, and expenses, including those for any attorneys, experts, and witnesses. You agree that any claim for or award of attorneys’ fees, including any such claim or award pursuant to Chapter 38 of the Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code, is waived. Any arbitration award made after completion of an arbitration is final and binding and may be confirmed in any court of competent jurisdiction, except that in the event the arbitrator's award for a party is $0 or against a party is in excess of $100,000, or includes an award of injunctive relief against a party, that party may request a new arbitration to be conducted by the selected arbitration organization by a three-arbitrator panel. An award and any judgment confirming it only applies to the arbitration in which it was awarded and can't be used in any other case except to enforce the award itself. If a court or arbitrator determines that any part of this arbitration agreement other than the Class Action Waiver is not enforceable, the rest of this arbitration agreement shall be enforceable. If for some reason these arbitration requirements don't apply, or a claim proceeds in small claims court, each of you and we waive to the fullest extent permitted by law any trial by jury. In no event shall any claim, action or proceeding by you related in any way to the Services, this Agreement, or any prior agreement, as described above, be instituted more than two (2) years after the claim or cause of action arose.
