DISPUTE RESOLUTION
Binding Arbitration
If the Parties are unable to resolve a Dispute through informal negotiations, the Dispute (except
those Disputes expressly excluded below) will be finally and exclusively resolved by binding
arbitration. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT WITHOUT THIS PROVISION, YOU WOULD
HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL.
The arbitration shall be commenced and conducted under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of
the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") and, where appropriate, the AAA’s
Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes ("AAA Consumer Rules"), both of
which are available at the AAA website www.adr.org.
Your arbitration fees and your share of arbitrator compensation shall be governed by the AAA
Consumer Rules and, where appropriate, limited by the AAA Consumer Rules. [If such costs are
determined to by the arbitrator to be excessive, we will pay all arbitration fees and expenses.]]
The arbitration may be conducted in person, through the submission of documents, by phone, or
online. The arbitrator will make a decision in writing, but need not provide a statement of
reasons unless requested by either Party. The arbitrator must follow applicable law, and any
award may be challenged if the arbitrator fails to do so.

Except where otherwise required by the applicable AAA rules or applicable law, the arbitration
will take place in [name of county] County, [name of state]. Except as otherwise provided herein,
the Parties may litigate in court to compel arbitration, stay proceedings pending arbitration, or to
confirm, modify, vacate, or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator.
If for any reason, a Dispute proceeds in court rather than arbitration, the Dispute shall be
commenced or prosecuted in the state and federal courts located in [name of county] County,
[name of state], and the Parties hereby consent to, and waive all defenses of lack of personal
jurisdiction, and forum non conveniens with respect to venue and jurisdiction in such state and
federal courts. Application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International
Sale of Goods and the the Uniform Computer Information Transaction Act (UCITA) are
excluded from these Terms of Use.
In no event shall any Dispute brought by either Party related in any way to the Site be
commenced more than _____ years after the cause of action arose. If this provision is found to be
illegal or unenforceable, then neither Party will elect to arbitrate any Dispute falling within that
portion of this provision found to be illegal or unenforceable and such Dispute shall be decided
by a court of competent jurisdiction within the courts listed for jurisdiction above, and the Parties
agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.
