Dispute Resolution; Governing Law Any litigation or other dispute resolution between You and Apple arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the Apple Software, or Your relationship with Apple will take place in the Northern District of California, and You and Apple hereby consent to the personal jurisdiction of and exclusive venue in the state and federal courts within that District with respect any such litigation or dispute resolution. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the United States and the State of California, except that body of California law concerning conflicts of law. Notwithstanding the foregoing:
(a) If You are an agency, instrumentality or department of the federal government of the United States, then this Agreement shall be governed in accordance with the laws of the United States of America, and in the absence of applicable federal law, the laws of the State of California will apply. Further, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement (including but not limited to Section 10 (Indemnification)), all claims, demands, complaints and disputes will be subject to the Contract Disputes Act (41 U.S.C. §§601-613), the Xxxxxx Act (28 U.S.C. § 1346(a) and § 1491), or the Federal Tort Claims Act (28 U.S.C. §§ 1346(b), 2401-2402, 2671-2672, 2674- 2680), as applicable, or other applicable governing authority. For the avoidance of doubt, if You are an agency, instrumentality, or department of the federal, state or local government of the U.S. or a U.S. public and accredited educational institution, then Your indemnification obligations are only applicable to the extent they would not cause You to violate any applicable law (e.g., the Anti-Deficiency Act), and You have any legally required authorization or authorizing statute;
(b) If You (as an entity entering into this Agreement) are a U.S. public and accredited educational institution or an agency, instrumentality, or department of a state or local government within the United States, then (a) this Agreement will be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the state (within the U.S.) in which Your entity is domiciled, except that body of state law concerning conflicts of law; and (b) any litigation or other dispute resolution between You and Apple arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the Apple Software, or Your relationship with Apple will take place in federal court within the Northern District of California, and You and Apple hereby consent to the personal jurisdiction of and exclusive venue of such District unless such consent is expressly prohibited by the laws of the state in which Your entity is domiciled; and
(c) If You are an international, intergovernmental organization that has been conferred immunity from the jurisdiction of national courts through Your intergovernmental charter or agreement, then any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or the breach thereof, shall be determined by arbitration administered by the International Centre for Dispute Resolution in accordance with its International Arbitration Rules. The place of arbitration shall be London, England; the language shall be English; and the number of arbitrators shall be three. Upon Apple’s request, You agree to provide evidence of Your status as an intergovernmental organization with such privileges and immunities. This Agreement shall not be governed by the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods, the application of which is expressly excluded.
Dispute Resolution and Governing Law This Section provides for resolution of Disputes through final and binding arbitration before a neutral arbitrator instead of in a court by a judge or jury or through a class action. You may continue to have certain rights to obtain relief in small claims court or from a federal or state regulatory agency. The arbitration shall be administered by JAMS pursuant to the Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures and in accordance with the Expedited Procedures in those rules. If no disputed claim or counterclaim exceeds $250,000, not including interest or attorneys’ fees, the arbitration shall be administered under the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures as modified by this Agreement. Judgment on the Award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. Notwithstanding any JAMS rule to the contrary or any other provision in arbitration rules chosen by agreement, we each agree that all issues regarding the Dispute are delegated to the arbitrator to decide, including any disagreements regarding the scope and enforceability of this agreement to arbitrate. In conducting the arbitration and making any award, the arbitrator shall be bound by and strictly enforce the terms of this Agreement and may not limit, expand, or otherwise modify its terms. You and Xxxxxxxx agree that each may bring claims against the other only in your or its individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class or representative proceeding. Further, unless both you and Xxxxxxxx agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party’s individual claim. If any portion of this paragraph is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Section 9 shall be null and void. The arbitration process established by this Section 9 is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”), 9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16. You and Xxxxxxxx each agree that the FAA’s provisions—and not state law—govern all questions of whether a Dispute is subject to arbitration. To the extent this Agreement conflicts with the JAMS Policy on Consumer Arbitrations Pursuant to Pre-Dispute Clauses Minimum Standards of Procedural Fairness (the “Minimum Standards”), the Minimum Standards in that regard will apply. However, nothing in this paragraph will require or allow you or Xxxxxxxx to arbitrate on a class-wide, representative, or consolidated basis.
Rules and Procedures The Benefit Society By-Laws will be amended to provide for a 6th Director with three Directors appointed by the Unions and three Directors appointed by the Corporation.
