CHOICE OF LAW; ARBITRATION
• Choice of Law. These Terms shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of California, without giving effect to its principles of conflict of laws. The parties expressly agree that the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods or the Uniform Computer Transactions Act shall not apply to these Terms.
• Arbitration. Except as provided in Section 4.3 (Injunctive Relief), any claim arising out of or relating to the Services or these Terms that cannot be resolved informally by the parties, after using commercially reasonable efforts to do so, shall be resolved by arbitration in Los Angeles, California in accordance with the Commercial Dispute Resolution Procedures of the American Arbitration Association and, in the event either party seeks injunctive or provisional relief, the Optional Rules for Emergency Measures of Protection; provided that you may not bring any claim more than one year after the incident first giving rise to such claim. The arbitration will be heard and determined by a single arbitrator who is a lawyer or retired judge with experience in the software industry. The arbitrator’s decision in any such arbitration will be final and binding upon the parties and may be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction (and the parties agree to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in Los Angeles County, California for such purposes). Each party shall be responsible for its own costs and expenses of arbitration, including legal and filing fees. The arbitration will be kept confidential and that the existence of the proceeding and any element of it (including, but not limited to, any pleadings, briefs or other documents submitted or exchanged and any testimony or other oral submissions and awards) will not be disclosed beyond the arbitration panel, except as may lawfully be required in judicial proceedings relating to the arbitration or by disclosure rules and regulations of securities regulatory authorities or other governmental agencies. No disputes may be arbitrated on a class or representative basis. Arbitration can decide only the individual Dispute and the arbitrator may not consolidate or join the claims of other persons or parties who may be similarly situated. BY ENTERING INTO THESE TERMS, YOU HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT YOU MAY HAVE TO JOIN CLAIMS WITH THOSE OF OTHERS IN THE FORM OF A CLASS ACTION OR SIMILAR PROCEDURAL DEVICE. ANY CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF, RELATING TO, OR CONNECTED WITH THESE TERMS MUST BE ASSERTED INDIVIDUALLY.

• Severability. If any provision of these Terms is invalid, unlawful, or unenforceable to any extent, the parties agree that such provision will be deemed modified to the minimal extent necessary to make it enforceable while still retaining the intent of the parties.
