DISPUTES AND DISPUTE RESOLUTION

This TOU Agreement shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of Florida, without regard to its provisions governing conflicts of laws. You agree that our remedy at law for any actual or threatened breach of this TOU Agreement would be inadequate and that we shall be entitled to specific performance or injunctive relief, or both, in addition to any damages that we may be legally entitled to recover, together with reasonable expenses of any form of dispute resolution, including, without limitation, attorneys' fees.

PLEASE READ THIS PROVISION CAREFULLY. IT PROVIDES THAT EITHER YOU OR WE CAN REQUIRE THAT ANY CONTROVERSY OR DISPUTE BE RESOLVED BY BINDING ARBITRATION. Arbitration replaces the right to go to court, including the right to a jury and the right to participate in a class action or similar proceeding. In arbitration, a dispute is resolved by a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury. Arbitration procedures are simpler and more limited than rules applicable in court. In arbitration, you may choose to have a hearing and be represented by counsel. You and we agree that either you or we may, without the other's consent, require that any controversy or dispute between you and us (all of which are called "Claims"), be submitted to mandatory, binding arbitration. This arbitration provision covers all Claims, including without limitation: (i) the enforceability or interpretation of this TOU Agreement and our Privacy Policy, including this arbitration provision; (ii) any aspect of the Site, (iii) any aspect of the benefits or perceived value associated with the Site and your Account, (iv) any Claims made directly by you, by anyone connected with you or claiming through you to be your agent, representative or heirs, or a trustee in bankruptcy, (v) any Claims based on any theory of law, any contract, statute, regulation, ordinance, tort (including fraud or any intentional tort), common law, constitutional provision, respondeat superior, agency or other doctrine concerning liability for other persons, custom or course of dealing or any other legal or equitable ground (including any claim for injunctive or declaratory relief), (vi) any Claims based on any allegations of fact, including an alleged act, inaction, omission, suppression, representation, statement, obligation, duty, right, condition, status or relationship, and (vii) any Claims made as part of a class action or other representative action, and the arbitration of such Claims must proceed on an individual basis. If you or we require arbitration of a particular Claim, neither you, we, nor any other person may pursue the Claim in any litigation, whether as a class action, private attorney general action, other representative action or otherwise. The party filing an arbitration must choose an arbitration administrator from the American Arbitration Association.

If you file for arbitration, you must notify us in writing within two business days.If we initiate the arbitration, we will notify you in writing at the last address we have on file for you, or at our discretion via email, using the most recent email address associated with your Account. Any arbitration hearing shall be held in Miami-Date, Florida and you waive any objection that such location may be inconvenient for you. If we file the arbitration, we will pay the initial filing fee. If you file the arbitration, you will pay the initial filing fee. Each party to the arbitration shall pay its own fees and expenses, and will not be eligible for any recovery of such fees or expenses from the other party. All parties to the arbitration must be individually named. Claims by persons other than individually named parties shall not be raised or determined. Notwithstanding anything else that may be in this arbitration provision or TOU Agreement, no class action, private attorney general action or other representative action may be pursued in arbitration, nor may such action be pursued in court unless consented to by all parties to the arbitration. Claims of two or more persons may not be joined, consolidated or otherwise brought together in the same arbitration regardless of whether or not the Claims (or any interest in the Claims) may have been assigned.
