ARBITRATION 

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT REQUIRES YOU TO ARBITRATE DISPUTES AND IT LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, any Claim will be resolved by binding arbitration under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), rather than in court (except that you may assert claims in small claims court if your claims qualify, and you or we may seek injunctive or equitable relief in court to stop infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights). The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to the enforcement of this agreement to arbitrate. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW WE EACH AGREE THAT ANY DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCEEDINGS WILL BE CONDUCTED ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT IN A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. This arbitration provision does not preclude you from bringing issues to the attention of federal, state, or local agencies. Such agencies can, if the law allows, seek relief against us on your behalf.  If for any reason a Claim proceeds in court (other than small claims court) rather than in arbitration you and Company each waive any right to a jury trial and irrevocably consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located in the state of New Jersey in connection with any such action. You and Company waive any objection based on lack of personal jurisdiction, place of residence, improper venue, or forum non convenience in any such action.
