Arbitration and Governing Law
To expedite resolution and control the cost of any dispute, controversy, or claim related to this
Policy, the Application or the relationship between the parties (each a "Dispute" and collectively,
the “Disputes”) brought by either you or us (individually, a “Party” and collectively, the “Parties”),
the Parties agree to first attempt to negotiate any Dispute (except those Disputes expressly
provided below) informally for at least 150 days before initiating arbitration. Such informal
negotiations commence upon written notice from one Party to the other Party. Any arbitration
shall be settled in binding arbitration in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the
American Arbitration Association. The Parties agree that any arbitration shall be limited to the
Dispute between the Parties individually; provided, however, that the obligation to arbitrate shall
extend to any affiliate, subsidiary, officer, employee, shareholder, principal, agent, trustee in
bankruptcy or guarantor of a Party making or defending any claim hereunder. Any decision and
award of the arbitrator shall be final, binding and conclusive upon all of the Parties hereto and
said decision and award may be entered as a final judgment in any court of competent
jurisdiction. Notwithstanding said Rules, any arbitration hearing to take place hereunder shall
be conducted in Evansville, Indiana, before one (1) arbitrator who shall be an attorney who has
substantial experience in commercial law issues. This Policy shall be construed and enforced in
accordance with, and the rights of the Parties shall be governed by, the laws of the State of
Indiana (not including the choice of law rules thereof). To the full extent permitted by law, (a) no
arbitration shall be joined with any other proceeding; (b) there is no right or authority for any
Dispute to be arbitrated on a class-action basis or to utilize class action procedures; and (c)
there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be brought in a purported representative capacity
on behalf of the general public or any other persons. The Parties agree that the following
Disputes are not subject to the above provisions concerning informal negotiations: (a) any
Disputes seeking to enforce or protect, or concerning the validity of, any of the intellectual
property rights of a Party; (b) any Dispute related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy,
invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use; and (c) any claim for injunctive relief. If this provision is
found to be illegal or unenforceable, then neither Party will elect to arbitrate any Dispute falling
within that portion of this provision found to be illegal or unenforceable and such Dispute shall
be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction within the courts listed for jurisdiction above, and
the Parties agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court. Either party may apply to
any court of competent jurisdiction for interim, temporary, or preliminary injunctive relief in aid of
the arbitration proceedings, or to enforce the arbitration award, but not otherwise. Any such
application to a court shall not be deemed incompatible or a waiver of this provision. The
arbitrator shall be required to make written findings of fact and conclusions of law to support its
award. Except as may be required by law, neither a Party nor an arbitrator(s) may disclose the
existence, content, or results of any arbitration hereunder without the prior written consent of the
Parties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in said Arbitration Rules, the arbitrator shall
not be authorized or empowered to award consequential, incidental, special, treble, indirect,
liquidated, exemplary, or punitive damages, and the Parties expressly waive any claim to such
damages. The Parties consent to the jurisdiction of the American Arbitration Association and
waive any objection which either Party may have to any proceeding so commenced based upon
improper venue or forum non conveniens.
