  1. Mandatory Arbitration of Disputes. We each agree that any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity thereof or the use of the Services or Content (collectively, “Disputes”) will be resolved solely by binding, individual arbitration and not in a class, representative or consolidated action or proceeding. You and VersaClimber LIVE agree that the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act (or equivalent laws in the jurisdiction in which the VersaClimber LIVE entity that you have contracted with is incorporated) governs the interpretation and enforcement of these Terms and that you and VersaClimber LIVE are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action. This arbitration provision shall survive termination of these Terms.

 

  1. Exceptions and Opt-out. As limited exceptions to Section 20 above:

 

  1. you may seek to resolve a Dispute in small claims court if it qualifies; and
  2. we each retain the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief from a court to prevent (or enjoin) the infringement or misappropriation of our respective intellectual property rights.

 

In addition, you will retain the right to opt out of arbitration entirely and litigate any Dispute if you provide us with written notice of your desire to do so by regular mail sent to the attention of VersaClimber LIVE’s Legal Department at the VersaClimber address set out below within 30 days following the date you first agree to these Terms.

 

  1. Initial Dispute Resolution and Notification. You agree that before initiating any Dispute or arbitration proceeding, we will attempt to negotiate an informal resolution of any dispute. To begin this process, before initiating any arbitration proceeding, you must send a Notice of Dispute (“Notice”) by certified mail to the attention of VersaClimber's Legal Department at the VersaClimber LIVE address set out in Section 24 below. In the Notice, you must describe the nature and basis of the Dispute and the relief you are seeking. If we are unable to resolve the Dispute within 45 days after VersaClimber's receipt of the Notice, then you or VersaClimber LIVE may initiate arbitration proceedings as set out below.

 

  1. Conducting Arbitration and Arbitration Rules. Any arbitration will be conducted by a dedicated arbitration service such as Judicate Wet, AAA, ARC JAMS, ADR Services, Inc., or IVAMS, pursuant to that services arbitration rules and procedures (the “Arbitration Rules”) then in effect, except as modified by these Terms. A party who wishes to initiate arbitration must submit a written Demand for Arbitration to the selected arbitration service and give notice to the other party as specified in those Arbitration Rules.

 

If the arbitration service fails or declines to conduct the arbitration for any reason, we will mutually select a different arbitration administrator. If we cannot agree, a court will appoint a different arbitration administrator.

Any arbitration hearings will take place in the county (or other municipality) where you, unless we both agree to a different location. The parties agree that the arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to decide all issues relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability and scope of this arbitration agreement. During the arbitration, both you and VersaClimber LIVE may take one deposition of the opposing party, limited to 4 hours. If we cannot agree on a time and location for a deposition, the arbitrator will resolve any scheduling disputes.

 

  1. Arbitration Costs. Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the Arbitration Rules. If you assert a claim against VersaClimber LIVE, you will be responsible for paying a $250 consumer filing fee. VersaClimber LIVE will pay for all other filing, administration and arbitrator fees and expenses. If your Dispute is for less than U.S. $10,000 (including attorneys’ fees and costs) and the arbitrator, upon final disposition of the case, finds your Dispute was not frivolous, VersaClimber will reimburse your initial filing fee. If we prevail in arbitration, we will pay all of our attorneys’ fees and costs and will not seek to recover them from you. If you prevail in arbitration you will be entitled to an award of attorneys’ fees and expenses to the extent provided under applicable law.

 

  1. Class Action WaiverYOU AND VERSACLIMBER LIVE AGREE THAT EACH OF US MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, if the parties’ dispute is resolved through arbitration, neither the arbitration service nor the arbitrator may consolidate another person’s claims with your claims or otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding for any purpose. If this specific provision is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Section 20 shall be null and void.

 

  1. Effect of Changes on Arbitration. If VersaClimber changes any of the terms of this Section 20 after the date you first accepted these Terms (or accepted any subsequent changes to these Terms), you may reject any such change by sending us written notice within 30 days of the date such change became effective, as indicated in the “Last Updated” date above or the date of VersaClimber's email to you notifying you of such change. By rejecting any change, you are agreeing that you will arbitrate any Dispute between you and VersaClimber in accordance with the terms of this Section 20 as of the date you first accepted these Terms (or accepted any subsequent changes to these Terms).

 

  1. Severability. With the exception of any of the provisions in Section 20 above, if an arbitrator or court of competent jurisdiction decides that any part of these Terms is invalid or unenforceable, the other parts of these Terms will still apply.
