• Governing Law; Dispute Resolution (a) This Limited Guarantee shall be interpreted, construed and governed by and in accordance with the Laws of the State of New York without regard to the conflicts of law principles thereof that would subject such matter to the Laws of another jurisdiction other than the State of New York.

• 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.
