In the event of a dispute, the arbitrator shall decide the enforceability and interpretation of this arbitration agreement in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”). The parties also agree that the AAA’s rules governing Emergency Measures of Protection shall apply in lieu of seeking emergency injunctive relief from a court. The decision of the arbitrator shall be final and binding, and no party shall have rights of appeal except for those provided in section 10 of the FAA. Each party shall bear its share of the fees paid for the arbitrator and the administration of the arbitration; however, the arbitrator shall have the power to order one party to pay all or any portion of such fees as part of a well-reasoned decision. The parties agree that the arbitrator shall have the authority to award attorneys’ fees only to the extent expressly authorized by statute or contract. The arbitrator shall have no authority to award punitive damages and each party hereby waives any right to seek or recover punitive damages with respect to any dispute resolved by arbitration.
THE PARTIES AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY VIA ARBITRATION AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ARBITRATION PROCEEDING. Further, unless both parties agree otherwise in a signed writing, 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.
Except as may be required by law, neither a party nor the arbitrator may disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration without the prior written consent of both parties, unless to protect or pursue a legal right. If any term or provision of this Section is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision of this Section or invalidate or render unenforceable such term or provision in any other jurisdiction. If for any reason a dispute proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, the parties hereby waive any right to a jury trial. This arbitration provision shall survive any cancellation or termination of your agreement to participate in any of our Programs.

-
Dispute Resolution; Mandatory Arbitration. Please review this provision carefully. This provision provides that any dispute arising out of this Agreement may be resolved by binding arbitration instead of a trial in court or a class action. Unless you opt out in the manner described below, this provision will eliminate your right to go to court (except for a small claims court having jurisdiction), the right to bring class or collective actions, and the right to have a jury decide a dispute.
-
To the extent permitted by applicable law and except as otherwise expressly provided by this Section, each party to this Agreement (including any our affiliates, successors, assigns, and any of the entities’ employees, officers, directors, third-party service providers and agents, and their successors, assigns and affiliates, and with us, the “Arbitration Parties”) elects to resolve any past, present, or future dispute or claim arising from or relating in any way to this Agreement or the relationships that result from any of the Agreement that cannot be resolved directly between you and an Arbitration Party by binding arbitration under the Consumer Arbitration Rules (the “Consumer Rules") of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"), rather than in court. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Section, this Mandatory Arbitration broadly covers any claims based in contract, statute, tort, fraud, consumer rights, misrepresentation, equity or any other legal theory; initial claims, counterclaims, cross-claims and third-party claims; federal, state and local claims, and claims which arose before the date of this Agreement. THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THEY HAVE A RIGHT TO LITIGATE CLAIMS THROUGH A COURT BEFORE A JUDGE OR JURY, BUT WILL NOT HAVE THAT RIGHT IF ANY PARTY ELECTS ARBITRATION PURSUANT TO THIS MANDATORY ARBITRATION PROVISION, EXCEPT THROUGH SMALL CLAIMS COURT PURSUANT TO THE CONSUMER RULES. THE PARTIES HEREBY KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVE THEIR RIGHTS TO LITIGATE SUCH CLAIMS IN A COURT BEFORE A JUDGE OR JURY UPON ELECTION OF ARBITRATION BY ANY PARTY.
-
CLASS ACTION WAIVER: The Arbitration Parties and you each agree that any arbitration will be conducted only on an individual basis and not as a class, consolidated or representative action. To the fullest extent permitted by law: (i) no arbitration will be joined or consolidated with any other; (ii) there is no right or authority for any dispute to be arbitrated on a class-action or private attorney general basis or to utilize class action procedures; and (iii) there is no right or authority for any dispute to be brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public or any other persons. No arbitrator shall have the authority to issue any relief that applies to any person or entity other than Arbitration Parties and/or you individually.
-
The Federal Arbitration Act ("FAA") and federal arbitration law apply to this Agreement. There is no judge or jury in arbitration and court review of an arbitration award is limited, but an arbitrator can award an individual the same damages and relief as a court in an individual case and must apply and follow the terms of this Agreement as a court would. The arbitrator shall apply applicable statutes of limitations and honor privilege rules. Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator will be final and may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.
-
Either an Arbitration Party or you can initiate arbitration through AAA, an alternative dispute resolution provider, or by filing a motion to compel arbitration of claims filed in court. Regardless of who elected arbitration or how arbitration was elected, the party asserting the claim (i.e., the party seeking money damages or other relief from a court or an arbitrator) is responsible for starting the arbitration proceeding. If AAA cannot serve, a court with jurisdiction shall select the arbitrator, who will apply the AAA rules and procedures specified in this Section. Any arbitration will be governed by the then-current Consumer Rules, and its Procedures for the Resolution of Disputes through Document Submission ("Document Submission Procedures"). The Consumer Rules are available at the AAA website: www.adr.org. The Document Submission Procedures are included in the Consumer Rules. Any arbitration filing fees will be governed by the Consumer Rules. If it is determined by the arbitrator that you cannot afford such fees, an Arbitration Party will pay all arbitration fees and expenses. The arbitration will be conducted solely based on written submissions. The arbitration will not require any personal appearance by the parties or witnesses unless the arbitrator determines that a telephonic or in-person conference or hearing is necessary based on the request of one or more of the parties. Disputes or controversies about the validity, enforceability, coverage or scope of this Section or any part thereof are for a court and not an arbitrator to decide; however, disputes or controversies about the Agreement as a whole are for an arbitrator and not a court to decide.
-
If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, we each waive any right to a jury trial. Even if all parties have opted to litigate a claim in court, a party may elect arbitration with respect to any claim made by a new party or any claim later asserted by a party in that or any related or unrelated lawsuit (including a claim initially asserted on an individual basis but modified to be asserted on a class, representative or multi-party basis). Nothing in that litigation shall constitute a waiver of any rights under this Section. Pursuant to the Consumer Rules, any party may proceed with their individual claims in small claims court if that option is available in the applicable jurisdiction and the amount in controversy falls within the small claims court's jurisdictional limits; but if that action is transferred, removed or appealed to a different court, arbitration can be elected.
-
If any portion of this Section is inconsistent with the Consumer Rules or other provisions of this Agreement, this Section shall govern. No portion of this Section may be amended absent a written agreement signed by all parties. If any portion of this Section is deemed invalid or unenforceable, it shall not invalidate the remaining portions of this Section, except that: (i) If the Class Action Waiver is limited, voided or found unenforceable, then this Section (except for this sentence) shall be null and void with respect to such proceeding, subject to the right to appeal the limitation or invalidation of the Class Action Waiver. The parties acknowledge and agree that under no circumstances will a class action be arbitrated; and (ii) If a claim is brought seeking public injunctive relief and a court determines that the restrictions in the Class Action Waiver or elsewhere in this Section prohibiting the arbitrator from awarding relief on behalf of third parties are unenforceable with respect to such claim (and that determination becomes final after all appeals have been exhausted), the claim for public injunctive relief will be determined in court and any individual claims seeking monetary relief will be arbitrated. In such a case the parties will request that the court stay the claim for public injunctive relief until the arbitration award pertaining to individual relief has been entered in court. In no event will a claim for public injunctive relief be arbitrated. No arbitration award involving the parties will have any preclusive effect as to issues or claims in any dispute involving anyone who is not a party to the arbitration, nor will an arbitration award in prior disputes involving other parties have a preclusive effect in an arbitration between the parties to this Section.
-
RIGHT TO OPT OUT: If you do not want this Mandatory Arbitration Section to apply, you must send a signed notice within 30 calendar days after you sign the Agreement. You must send the notice in writing to [ADDRESS], Attention: Arbitration Opt Out or by email to hq@drinkechelon.com. You must provide your name, address, and subscription or number and state that you "opt out" of the Mandatory Arbitration Section. No other methods can be used to opt out of this Mandatory Arbitration Provision. If the notice is sent on your behalf by a third party, such third party must include evidence of his or her authority to submit the notice on your behalf. Opting out will not affect the other provisions of this Agreement. If you opt out, it will apply only to this Agreement.
-
Governing Law. Unless otherwise prohibited by appliable law, this Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to conflict of laws principles. If any provision is unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in effect.
