13.  CLASS ACTION WAIVER AND ARBITRATION AGREEMENT

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY—IT MAY SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT AND TO HAVE A JURY HEAR YOUR CLAIMS. IT CONTAINS PROCEDURES FOR FINAL BINDING ARBITRATION AND A WAIVER OF ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO PROCEED IN A CLASS, COLLECTIVE, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION (hereinafter “Class Action”).

Most customer concerns can be resolved by contacting Customer Service at customer.care@sonneman.com. In the event Customer Service is unable to resolve a complaint to your satisfaction, this section explains how any Claims (as defined below) are resolved through arbitration. In this Agreement to Arbitrate, the term “SONNEMAN” includes any of its affiliates or subsidiaries, and any persons or entities (including agents or employees) related to SONNEMAN or its affiliates or subsidiaries.

Dispute Resolution. THIS SECTION PROVIDES THAT YOU AND WE AGREE THAT ANY CLAIMS (AS DEFINED BELOW) BETWEEN YOU AND SONNEMAN RELATING IN ANY WAY TO THE INTERPRETATION, APPLICABILITY, ENFORCEABILITY, OR FORMATION OF THESE TERMS OF USE OR YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES AND/OR CONTENT MUST BE RESOLVED EXCLUSIVELY BY FINAL AND BINDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION. ARBITRATION REPLACES THE RIGHT TO GO TO COURT, HAVE A JURY TRIAL, OR FILE OR PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION. IN ARBITRATION, DISPUTES ARE RESOLVED BY AN ARBITRATOR, NOT A JUDGE OR JURY. ARBITRATION PROCEDURES ARE SIMPLER AND MORE LIMITED THAN IN COURT. THIS AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE IS GOVERNED BY THE FEDERAL ARBITRATION ACT, 9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq. (“FAA”) AND SHALL BE INTERPRETED IN THE BROADEST WAY THE LAW WILL ALLOW.

You and SONNEMAN agree that any claim, dispute or controversy arising out of or relating to your use of this website or any product(s) or service(s) sold or other benefit offered to you by/through SONNEMAN (except claims, disputes, or controversies concerning either (i) the validity, enforceability, or scope of any part of this Agreement to Arbitrate or (ii) intellectual property rights) shall be subject to binding individual arbitration (hereinafter “Claim” or “Claims”). IN ARBITRATION, NEITHER YOU NOR SONNEMAN WILL HAVE THE RIGHT TO LITIGATE ANY CLAIM IN COURT OR HAVE A JURY TRIAL ON ANY CLAIM. BOTH PARTIES HEREBY AGREE TO PROCEED IN ARBITRATION AND WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OR OTHER TRIAL IN COURT. IF FOR ANY REASON A CLAIM PROCEEDS IN COURT RATHER THAN IN ARBITRATION, YOU AND SONNEMAN EACH UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL. THIS MEANS THAT ANY CLAIM WOULD BE DECIDED BY A JUDGE, NOT A JURY.

Prohibition of Class Action. YOU AND SONNEMAN AGREE THAT ANY AND ALL CLAIMS AGAINST EACH OTHER MAY BE BROUGHT ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS IN ARBITRATION. YOU AND SONNEMAN AGREE TO FORGO/WAIVE ANY RIGHT OR ABILITY TO FILE, OR PARTICIPATE IN, ANY CLASS ACTION OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE ACTION AGAINST THE OTHER PARTY AND INSTEAD AGREE TO ARBITRATE ALL CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER PARTY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS ONLY. YOU AND SONNEMAN AGREE THAT CLAIMS OF TWO (2) OR MORE PERSONS MAY NOT BE COMBINED OR CONSOLIDATED IN THE SAME ARBITRATION. YOU AND SONNEMAN AGREE THAT THE ARBITRATOR HAS NO AUTHORITY OR POWER TO ARBITRATE OR OTHERWISE DECIDE ANY CLAIM ON A CLASS, COLLECTIVE, OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE BASIS, AND MAY AWARD RELIEF ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE RELIEF NECESSITATED BY THAT PARTY’S INDIVIDUAL CLAIM(S). THE ARBITRATOR ALSO HAS NO POWER OR AUTHORITY TO RULE ON HIS/HER OWN JURISDICTION OR TO DETERMINE THE VALIDITY, ENFORCEABILITY, OR SCOPE OF ANY PART OF THIS AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE. If this specific provision is found to be unenforceable, then neither you nor we will be entitled to arbitrate our dispute.

Claims. All Claims are subject to arbitration, no matter what legal theory the Claims are based on and no matter what remedy (including any type of monetary relief (including but not limited to damages and penalties) and including any type of injunctive, declaratory, or other equitable relief) the Claims seek, including but not limited to: Claims based on contract, tort (including but not limited to intentional torts), fraud, agency, negligence, equity, qui tam, deceptive trade practices, any statutory or regulatory provisions (federal, state, or otherwise), or any other sources of law (federal, state, or otherwise); Claims made as initial claims, counterclaims, cross-claims, third-party claims, interpleaders, or otherwise; and Claims made regarding past, present, or future conduct. You agree not to sell, assign, or transfer any Claim.

Demand for Arbitration. A party who intends to arbitrate (“Claimant”) must first send to the other party (“Respondent”) a written notice, entitled “Demand for Arbitration” (“Demand”). The Demand must: (1) briefly explain the dispute; (2) provide the Claimant’s name and address, the address of the Claimant’s representative (if the Claimant has one), and the Respondent’s name and address; (3) specify the amount of money in dispute, if applicable: (4) if the Claimant is requesting an in-person hearing, identify the requested location for the hearing; and (5) include a statement of what the Claimant wants. The Claimant must send one copy of the Demand to AAA at the same time the Claimant sends it to the Respondent. When sending a copy of the Demand to AAA, the Claimant must also include a copy of this arbitration agreement and any amendments to it and the then current filing fee required by the AAA. The Demand must be sent to the AAA at the following address:

 

American Arbitration Association

Case Filing Services

1101 Laurel Oak Road, Suite 100

Voorhees, NJ 08043

 

Alternatively, the Demand may be filed with the AAA online using AAA WebFile at https://www.adr.org.

Arbitration Rules. Arbitration shall be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) according to this Agreement to Arbitrate and the applicable AAA consumer arbitration rules (except any AAA or other rules permitting class, collective, consolidated, or representative arbitrations, which rules are not part of this Agreement to Arbitrate and are not applicable) in effect when the Claim is filed (hereinafter “AAA Rules”). If there is any conflict (express or 

implied) between the AAA Rules and the rules set forth in this Agreement to Arbitrate, the rules set forth in this Agreement to Arbitrate will govern. You can obtain copies of the AAA Rules at AAA’s website (www.adr.org) or by calling 800-778-7879. You or SONNEMAN may choose to have an in-person arbitration hearing, appear at any hearing by phone or other electronic means, and/or be represented by counsel. Any in-person arbitration hearing will be held within 50 miles of your billing address, unless you and SONNEMAN agree on a different location.

Arbitration shall be initiated in accordance with the AAA Rules, except that the parties agree that any demand for arbitration or other similar document will be signed by the filing party personally (for SONNEMAN, by an authorized non-lawyer representative) and not by an attorney. The arbitration shall be conducted by a single arbitrator in accordance with this Agreement to Arbitrate and the AAA Rules. Both you and SONNEMAN shall participate equally in the selection of the arbitrator. The parties shall request AAA to provide a panel of seven (7) neutral arbitrators from AAA’s national roster of arbitrators along with materials showing the background of each arbitrator on the panel provided. Within seven (7) calendar days after the panel is received, the parties shall take turns striking unacceptable arbitrators from the panel until only one remains. The parties then shall inform AAA of the remaining arbitrator who will decide the dispute. If both parties agree that the remaining arbitrator is unacceptable, the parties may request a second panel from AAA and the selection process will begin again. If both parties agree that no one on the second panel is acceptable, either party may request AAA to appoint an arbitrator who was not on either panel.
 
You and SONNEMAN agree to limit discovery in arbitration. Each party agrees to limit their respective discovery in arbitration to: (i) depositions of up to three (3) relevant individuals; (ii) service of one set of up to twenty (20) interrogatories (including subparts); and (iii) service of one set of up to twenty (20) requests for production of relevant documents. The party taking the deposition shall be responsible for all associated costs, including the cost of a court reporter, transcript, videographer, or video. Responses to interrogatories or document requests must be served within thirty (30) calendar days of receipt of the interrogatories or document requests. The arbitrator also may allow additional relevant and reasonable discovery consistent with this Agreement to Arbitrate.

The arbitrator must honor claims of privilege recognized at law and shall take reasonable steps to protect account information and other confidential information of either party if requested to do so. The arbitrator must allow, and has the authority to grant, motions dispositive of all or part of any Claim. The arbitrator shall apply the substantive law, including the conflicts of law, of the state in which your billing address is/was located at the time you and SONNEMAN entered into this Agreement to Arbitrate. For Claims or defenses arising under or governed by federal law, the arbitrator shall follow the substantive law as set forth by the United States Supreme Court and by the United States Court of Appeals and United States District Court covering your billing address at the time you and SONNEMAN entered into this Agreement to Arbitrate.

The arbitrator shall have the authority to award individual monetary and non-monetary relief available under applicable law. The arbitrator shall issue a written award and statement of decision explaining the findings and conclusions on which the award is based, including the calculation of any damages awarded. An arbitration award shall decide the rights and obligations only of the parties named in the arbitration and shall not have any bearing on any other person or dispute. No decision by an arbitrator shall serve as precedent in any other matter. Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. The arbitrator’s award is final and binding and is subject to judicial review only as allowed by the FAA or other applicable law.

You are responsible for paying the consumer filing fee required by the AAA Rules. SONNEMAN will pay the other costs for the parties to access the arbitral forum that are required by AAA. The parties are otherwise responsible for their own attorney’s fees, expert fees, and any other costs and expenses incurred, unless applicable law allows the arbitrator to award such fees, costs, or expenses to you for prevailing on a Claim.

Amendment to Arbitration Provisions. SONNEMAN may modify this Agreement to Arbitrate upon posting a revised version in its Legal Notice. Any such modification shall be effective for any Claim based on use of the website or any product or service sold, or other benefit offered to you by/through SONNEMAN after the date of such posting. The modification will only apply prospectively and will not apply to any Claims that have arisen or accrued before the modification is posted. Your continued use of this website, purchase of a product or services, or acceptance of other benefits after the date of posting will constitute your acceptance of, and agreement to, any such modification. In the absence of such advance written notice, if the Claims arose or accrued before the effective date of the modification, or if the modification is not allowed by a court in the applicable jurisdiction, the Agreement to Arbitrate that was in effect before the modification shall govern the parties’ dispute.

Survival. This Agreement to Arbitrate shall survive any termination of the relationship between you and SONNEMAN, including the bankruptcy of any party or any transfer in or change of control of SONNEMAN. If any terms or parts of this Agreement to Arbitrate are deemed invalid or unenforceable under applicable law, the other terms/parts of this Agreement to Arbitrate shall remain in full force and effect, except that you and SONNEMAN agree that there will never be any arbitration of any Claims on a class, consolidated, collective, or representative basis.
