14. Dispute Resolution.

Agreement to Arbitrate

You agree that any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms (“Dispute”) will be settled by binding arbitration, except that each party retains the right: (i) to bring an individual action in small claims court and (ii) to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation or violation of a party’s copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents or other Intellectual Property Rights (the action described in clause (ii) is an “IP Action”). You will also have the right to litigate any other Dispute if you provide us with written notice to opt out of arbitration (“Arbitration Opt-Out Notice”) by email at [email protected] or by regular mail to PureTech Scientific, LLC located at 901 W. DuPont Ave, Belle, WV 25015, within 30 days following the date you first accept these Terms, if you have not registered for an account, then within 30 days following the date you first use our Website. If you do not provide us with an Arbitration Opt-Out Notice within the 30-day period, you will be deemed to have knowingly and intentionally waived your right to litigate any Dispute, except as expressly set forth in (i) and (ii) above. The exclusive jurisdiction and venue of any IP Action or, if you timely provide us with an Arbitration Opt-Out Notice, will be the state and federal courts located in Sheboygan County, Wisconsin, and each of the parties to these Terms waives any objection to jurisdiction and venue in those courts. Unless you timely provide us with an Arbitration Opt-Out Notice, you acknowledge and agree that you are waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class action or representative proceeding. Further, unless you otherwise agree with us in writing, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of any class or representative proceeding. If a decision is issued stating that applicable law precludes enforcement of any limitations set forth in this Agreement to Arbitrate on the right to arbitrate claims on a class or representative basis, or as part of a consolidated proceeding, as to a given claim for relief, then that claim (and only that claim) must be severed from the arbitration and brought in the state or federal courts located in Sheboygan County, Wisconsin. All other claims will be arbitrated. This “Dispute Resolution” section will survive any termination of these Terms.

Arbitration Rules

The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Procedures and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (the “AAA Rules”) then in effect, except as modified by this Dispute Resolution section. (The AAA Rules are available at https://adr.org/rules or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879.) The Federal Arbitration Act will govern the interpretation and enforcement of this Section.

Arbitration Process

A party who desires to begin arbitration must provide the other party with a written Demand for Arbitration as specified in the AAA Rules. AAA provides a general form for a Demand for Arbitration and a separate form for Demand for Arbitration for Texas residents. The arbitrator will either be a retired judge or an attorney licensed to practice law and will be selected by the parties from the AAA’s roster of arbitrators. If the parties are unable to agree upon an arbitrator within seven days of delivery of the Demand for Arbitration, then the AAA will appoint the arbitrator in accordance with the AAA Rules.

Arbitration Motion Practice

Dispositive motions may be filed at any time up to thirty (30) days prior to any merits hearing and no merits hearing shall occur until the arbitrator(s) have ruled on the motion(s) that are filed, if any.

Arbitration Location and Procedure

Unless you agree with us otherwise, the arbitration will be conducted in the county where you reside. If you claim does not exceed $10,000, then the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of the documents that are submitted to the arbitrator, unless you request a hearing or the arbitrator determines that a hearing is necessary. If your claim exceeds $10,000, your right to a hearing will be determined by the AAA Rules. Subject to the AAA Rules, the arbitrator will have the discretion to direct a reasonable exchange of information by the parties, consistent with the expedited nature of the arbitration.

Arbitrator’s Decision

The arbitrator will render an award within the time frame specified in the AAA Rules. The arbitrator’s decision will include the essential findings on which the arbitrator based the award. Judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court with competent jurisdiction. The arbitrator’s award of damages must be consistent with the terms of the “Limitation of Liability” section above as to the types and amounts of damages for which a party may be held liable. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the claimant and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by the claimant’s individual claim.

Fees

Your responsibility to pay any AAA filing, administrative and arbitrator fees will be solely as set forth in the AAA Rules.

You may not enter into any contract on our behalf or bind us in any way.
