This Agreement takes effect when you click an “I Accept” button or check box presented with these terms or, if earlier, when you use any of the Service Offerings (the “Effective Date”).

(ii) | By Us.

5/18

(a) | If the applicable AWS Contracting Party is Amazon Web Services, Inc., Amazon Web Services Canada, Inc., Amazon Web Services Korea LLC or Amazon Web Services Singapore Private Limited, the parties agree that the provisions of this Section 13.5(a) will apply. Disputes will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court, except that you may assert claims in small claims court if your claims qualify. The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this Agreement, except that if Amazon Web Services Canada, Inc. is the applicable AWS Contracting Party the Ontario Arbitration Act will apply to this Agreement. There is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is limited. However, an arbitrator can award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court (including injunctive and declaratory relief or statutory damages), and must follow the terms of this Agreement as a court would. To begin an arbitration proceeding, you must send a letter requesting arbitration and describing your claim to our registered agent Corporation Service Company, 000 Xxxxxxxxx Xxx XX, Xxxxx 000, Xxxxxxxx, XX 00000. The arbitration will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its rules, which are available at xxx.xxx.xxx or by calling 0-000-000-0000. Payment of filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA’s rules. We will reimburse those fees for claims totaling less than $10,000 unless the arbitrator determines the claims are frivolous. We will not seek attorneys’ fees and costs in arbitration unless the arbitrator determines the claims are frivolous. You may choose to have the arbitration conducted by telephone, based on written submissions, or at a mutually agreed location. We and you 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 we and you waive any right to a jury trial. Notwithstanding the foregoing we and you both agree that you or we may bring suit in court to enjoin infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights. |

Disputes will be resolved by arbitration in accordance with the then-applicable rules of the Arbitration Foundation of Southern Africa, and judgment on the arbitral award must be entered in the Governing Court. The Arbitration Act, No. 42 of 1965 applies to this Agreement. The arbitration will take place in Johannesburg. There will be three arbitrators.
