Governing Law

Binding Bilateral Arbitration and Applicable Law (Continued from Section titled “Binding Arbitration” above)

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. You and Company agree that any claim or dispute at law or equity that has arisen or may arise between us relating in any way to or arising out of this or previous versions of the Terms of Use, your use of or access to the Site, Application and Services, or any products or services sold or purchased through the Services, will be resolved in accordance with the provisions set forth in this Section.

  1. Agreement to Arbitrate
    You and Company each agree that any and all disputes or claims that have arisen or may arise between you and Company relating in any way to or arising out of this or previous versions of the Terms of Use, the relationship between you and Company, your use of or access to the Site, Application or Services, or any products or services sold, offered, or purchased through the Services (a “Dispute”) shall be resolved exclusively through final and binding arbitration, and not in court.

    Notwithstanding the choice of law provision governing the Terms of Use above entitled “Governing Law”, the Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Agreement to Arbitrate to the maximum extent possible and to the exclusion of any conflicting federal or state laws. The Terms of Use and this Agreement to Arbitrate contemplate a transaction involving interstate commerce.

    1. Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief
      YOU AND COMPANY AGREE THAT EACH OF US MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE OR PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING. YOU THEREFORE AGREE TO WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL AND THE RIGHT TO FILE, COMMENCE OR PARTICIPATE IN ANY CLASS ACTION OR CLASS ARBITRATION AGAINST COMPANY OR ANY PUTATIVE CLASS ACTION OR CLASS ARBITRATION AGAINST COMPANY. UNLESS BOTH YOU AND COMPANY AGREE OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE OR JOIN MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S OR PARTY’S CLAIMS, AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A CONSOLIDATED, REPRESENTATIVE, CLASS, OR PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING. ALSO, THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD RELIEF (INCLUDING MONETARY, INJUNCTIVE, AND DECLARATORY RELIEF) ONLY IN FAVOR OF THE INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING RELIEF AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE RELIEF NECESSITATED BY THAT PARTY’S INDIVIDUAL CLAIM(S). ANY RELIEF AWARDED CANNOT AFFECT OTHER USERS. If a court decides that applicable law precludes enforcement of any limitations in this Agreement as to a particular claim for relief, then that claim (and only that claim) must be severed from the arbitration and may be brought in court, subject to your and Company’s right to appeal the court’s decision. All other claims will be arbitrated.

    2. Arbitration Procedures
      Notwithstanding any contrary provision in the FAA or the applicable AAA rules, all issues in a Dispute are for the arbitrator to decide.

      The arbitration will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its rules and procedures, including the AAA’s Consumer Arbitration Rules (as applicable) (“AAA Rules”), as modified by this Agreement to Arbitrate. The rules promulgated by the AAA concerning class arbitration shall not apply. The AAA Rules will govern the number of arbitrators that may preside over an arbitration conducted under this Agreement to Arbitrate. The AAA Rules are available online at adr.org, by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879, or by writing to Company at the Notice address below. You acknowledge that you have access to the AAA Rules and consent to them and that you can obtain a printed copy of the AAA Rules from Company or AAA. In the event of any conflict between the AAA Rules and this Agreement to Arbitrate, this Agreement to Arbitrate shall control and the arbitrator is bound by the terms of this Agreement to Arbitrate.

      A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send to the other, by certified mail, a completed form Notice of Dispute that identifies your name, contact information, a description of the dispute, and your requested relief (“Notice”). The Notice to Company should be sent to Auction Mobility, attn. President, 192 South St., Suite 600, Boston, Massachusetts 02111, United States. Company will send any Notice to you to the physical address we have on file associated with your Company account, with a copy to your email address on file; it is your responsibility to keep your physical address and email address up to date.

      If you and Company are unable to resolve the claims described in the Notice within 30 days after the Notice is sent, you or Company may initiate arbitration proceedings. A form for initiating arbitration proceedings is available on the AAA’s site at www.adr.org. In addition to filing this form with the AAA in accordance with its rules and procedures, the party initiating the arbitration must mail a copy of the completed form to the opposing party. You may send a copy to Company at Auction Mobility, attn. President, 192 South St., Suite 600, Boston, Massachusetts 02111, United States. If Company initiates an arbitration against you, it will send a copy of the completed form to the physical address we have on file associated with your Company account, with a copy to your email address on file. Any settlement offer made by you or Company shall not be disclosed to the arbitrator.

      The arbitration hearing shall be held in Boston, Massachusetts, United States.

      The arbitrator will decide the substance of all claims in accordance with applicable law, including recognized principles of equity, and will honor all claims of privilege recognized by law. The arbitrator shall not be bound by rulings in prior arbitrations involving different users, but is bound by rulings in prior arbitrations involving the same Company user to the extent required by applicable law. The arbitrator’s award shall be final and binding and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

      The arbitrator shall have the authority to compel adequate discovery for the resolution of the Dispute and to award such relief as would otherwise be permitted by law; provided, however, that in no event shall the right to discovery granted to the parties exceed 25 interrogatories, 35 documents requests, 10 third-party subpoenas, and three depositions (of not more than seven hours each), including third-party depositions, per side. The parties may submit such pre-arbitration and post-arbitration briefs (including briefs during arbitration) as they choose, provided that no party shall submit briefing exceeding a reasonable page limitation to be set by the arbitrator. If any party submits a motion, the arbitrator shall consider the motion and either deny it or request opposition briefing by the non-moving party, which shall not be required until requested by the arbitrator. The arbitrator may not grant a motion without allowing the opposing party an opportunity to oppose. The total length of the arbitration hearings on the merits shall not exceed 25 hours of hearing time, to be divided equally between the opposing sides. All discovery shall be completed no later than one hundred 120 days after appointment of the arbitrator. The hearing shall be concluded no later than 180 days after appointment of the arbitrator, unless the arbitrator’s schedule requires a later hearing. The arbitrator may only extend these limits at the request of a party when the arbitrator finds exceptional cause for the extension. The parties may extend these limits upon their agreement.

    3. Costs of Arbitration
      Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA’s rules, unless otherwise stated in this Agreement to Arbitrate.

    4. Severability
      With the exception of any of the provisions in Section 1 above (“Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief”), if an arbitrator or court decides that any part of this Agreement to Arbitrate is invalid or unenforceable, the other parts of this Agreement to Arbitrate shall still apply.

    5. Opt-Out Procedure
      IF YOU ARE A NEW COMPANY USER, YOU CAN CHOOSE TO REJECT THIS AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE (“OPT-OUT”) BY MAILING COMPANY A WRITTEN OPT-OUT NOTICE (“OPT-OUT NOTICE”). THE OPT-OUT NOTICE MUST BE POSTMARKED NO LATER THAN 30 DAYS AFTER THE DATE YOU ACCEPT THE TERMS OF USE FOR THE FIRST TIME. YOU MUST MAIL THE OPT-OUT NOTICE TO Auction Mobility, attn. President, 192 South St., Suite 600, Boston, Massachusetts 02111, United States.

      Your Opt-Out Notice must include your name, address (including street address, city, state and zip code), and the user ID(s) and email address(es) associated with the Company account(s) to which the opt-out applies. You must sign and date the Opt-Out Notice for it to be effective. This procedure is the only way you can opt out of the Agreement to Arbitrate. If you opt out of the Agreement to Arbitrate, all other parts of the Agreement and its Legal Disputes Section will continue to apply to you. Opting out of this Agreement to Arbitrate has no effect on any previous, other, or future arbitration agreements that you may have with Company.

      This Agreement to Arbitrate shall survive termination of this Agreement.

  2. Judicial Forum for Legal Disputes
    Unless you and Company agree otherwise, if the Agreement to Arbitrate above is found not to apply to you or to a particular claim or dispute, either as a result of your decision to opt out of the Agreement to Arbitrate or as a result of a decision by the arbitrator or a court order, you agree that any claim or dispute that has arisen or may arise between you and Company must be resolved exclusively by a state or federal court located in Boston, Massachusetts, United States. You and Company agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of the courts located within Boston, Massachusetts, United States for the purpose of litigating all such claims or disputes.

Interpretation

These Terms of Use are intended to be interpreted in the English language, and any translation is made for the convenience of the parties only. In the event of a conflict between the English and the translated versions, the English version will control and supersede.

You agree that no joint venture, partnership, employment, or agency relationship exists between you and the Company as a result of these Terms of Use or accessing or using the Site, the Application or their respective contents. The Company’s performance under these Terms of Use is subject to existing laws and legal process, and nothing contained in these Terms of Use is in derogation of the Company’s right to comply with governmental, court and law enforcement requests or requirements relating to your access or use of the Site and/or Application or information provided to or gathered by the Company with respect to such use.

If any part of these Terms of Use is determined to be invalid or unenforceable pursuant to applicable law including, but not limited to, the warranty disclaimers and liability limitations contained herein, then the invalid or unenforceable provision will be deemed superseded by a valid, enforceable provision that most closely matches the intent of the original provision and the remainder of the Terms of Use shall continue in effect. A printed version of these Terms of Use and of any notice given in electronic form shall be admissible in judicial or administrative proceedings based upon or relating to the Terms of Use to the same extent and subject to the same conditions as other business documents and records originally generated and maintained in printed form. Except as otherwise specified in these Terms of Use, all notices, permissions and approvals hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been given upon: (i) personal delivery, (ii) the second business day after mailing, (iii) the second business day after sending by confirmed facsimile, or (iv) the first business day after sending by email. Notices to us must be sent in writing to the following address: Auction Mobility, attn. President, 192 South St., Suite 600, Boston, Massachusetts 02111, United States, and notices to you will be sent to the email address you provide to us, which addresses may be updated from time to time upon written notice to the other party. No forbearance or delay by either party in enforcing its rights shall prejudice or restrict the rights of that party, and no waiver of any such rights or of any breach of any contractual terms shall be deemed to be a waiver of any other right or of any later breach. You may not assign any of your rights or obligations hereunder, whether by operation of law or otherwise. We may assign our rights and privileges under these Terms of Use (including your user registration), without your consent in connection with a merger, acquisition, corporate reorganization, or sale of all or substantially all of our assets, or to an affiliate, or in connection with a change in control. Subject to the foregoing, these Terms of Use shall bind and inure to the benefit of the parties, their respective successors and permitted assigns.
