IMPORTANT LIMITATIONS AND RESTRICTIONS. IF A CLAIM GOES TO ARBITRATION, NEITHER YOU NOR WE WILL HAVE THE RIGHT TO: (1) HAVE A COURT OR A JURY DECIDE THE CLAIM; (2) ENGAGE IN DISCOVERY (i.e., THE RIGHT TO OBTAIN INFORMATION FROM THE OTHER PARTY) TO THE SAME EXTENT THAT YOU OR WE COULD IN COURT; (3) PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION IN COURT OR IN ARBITRATION, EITHER AS A CLASS REPRESENTATIVE OR A CLASS MEMBER; (4) ACT AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL IN COURT OR IN ARBITRATION; OR (5) JOIN OR CONSOLIDATE CLAIM(S) WITH CLAIMS OF ANY OTHER PERSON. THE RIGHT TO APPEAL IS MORE LIMITED IN ARBITRATION THAN IN COURT. OTHER RIGHTS THAT YOU OR WE WOULD HAVE IF YOU OR WE WENT TO COURT MAY ALSO NOT BE AVAILABLE IN ARBITRATION. ONLY A COURT MAY DETERMINE THE VALIDITY AND EFFECT OF PARTS 3, 4 AND 5 OF THE FIRST SENTENCE OF THIS SUBPARAGRAPH 3.11. IF A COURT SHOULD HOLD SUCH PART(S) TO BE INVALID, THEN THE ENTIRE ARBITRATION PROVISION SHALL BE NULL AND VOID. HOWEVER, THIS WILL NOT LIMIT THE RIGHT TO APPEAL SUCH HOLDING. IF A COURT SHOULD HOLD ANY OTHER PART(S) OF THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION TO BE INVALID, THE REMAINING PARTS SHALL BE ENFORCEABLE. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE INVALIDATION OF ANY PART OF THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION HAVE THE EFFECT OF AUTHORIZING AN ARBITRATOR TO MAKE AN AWARD TO, ON BEHALF OF, OR AGAINST, ANY PERSON WHO IS NOT A NAMED PARTY TO THE ARBITRATION.
