11.2. Arbitration

Except as provided in § 11.5, you and FraternalArt each agree to submit to binding arbitration in the event of any Dispute. The arbitration will be held in State College, Pennsylvania before one arbitrator, on an individual basis and not as a class action. The arbitrator shall be from National Arbitration Forum, Box 50191, Minneapolis, MN 55405-0191 (www.arb-forum.com), and the arbitration shall be according the rules of the National Arbitration Forum. You expressly waive any right you may have to arbitrate a Dispute as a class action. You also expressly waive your right to a jury trial.

If you fail to select an arbitration organization within 30 days after notice from FraternalArt, FraternalArt may select the organization. You may obtain a copy of the rules of each organization by contacting the organization. In the event that any Dispute cannot be submitted to binding arbitration pursuant to the rules of any such organization, such event shall not affect the enforceability of this clause so long as the Dispute may be submitted to binding arbitration with one of the organizations. You and FraternalArt shall agree on one arbitrator to conduct the arbitration and the arbitrator shall be selected pursuant to the applicable rules. Each party shall be responsible for its own attorney, expert and other fees, unless such fees are awarded by the arbitrator to the prevailing party.

11.3. Arbitration Is Final

The arbitrator’s award is final and binding on all parties. The Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. §1 et seq.), and not any state law concerning arbitration, governs all arbitration under this clause. Any court having jurisdiction may enter judgment on the arbitrator’s award. If any part of this clause, other than waivers of class action rights, is deemed or found to be unenforceable for any reason, the remainder shall remain enforceable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if the waiver of class action rights contained herein is not enforceable as to any person or persons, the provisions of Section 12.2 of these Terms of Service shall apply to such person or persons only, and all other persons shall continue to be governed by § 11 of this Agreement.

11.4. No Class Action

This Agreement provides that all Disputes, except those stated in § 11.5, will be resolved by binding arbitration and not in court or by jury trial. IF A DISPUTE IS ARBITRATED, YOU GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE AS A CLASS REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS MEMBER ON ANY CLASS CLAIM YOU MAY HAVE AGAINST THE COMPANY INCLUDING ANY RIGHT TO CLASS ARBITRATION OR ANY CONSOLIDATION OF INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATIONS. WITHOUT LIMITATION, THIS INCLUDES GIVING UP YOUR RIGHTS TO BRING OR PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION AS SET FORTH IN ANY STATE STATUTE.

11.5. Violations of FraternalArt’s Proprietary Rights

To the extent you have in any manner violated or threatened to violate FraternalArt’s Intellectual Property Rights, FraternalArt may seek injunctive or other appropriate relief in any state or federal court in the state of Pemnnsylvania, and you consent to exclusive jurisdiction and venue in such court.

12.0. Governance

This section includes several important clauses governing the interpretation of the Agreement, where and under what law disputes may be adjudicated, and other important aspect of the governance of the Agreement.

12.1. Entire Agreement

This Agreement constitutes the final agreement between you and FraternalArt. It is the complete and exclusive expression of your agreement on the matters contained herein. All prior and contemporaneous negotiations and agreements between you and FraternalArt on matters contained in the Agreement are expressly merged into and superseded by the Agreement. The provisions of the Agreement may not be explained, supplemented or qualified through evidence of trade usage or a prior course of dealings. In entering into the Agreement, neither you nor FraternalArt has relied upon any statement, representation, warranty or agreement of the other party except for those expressly contained in the Agreement. THERE ARE NO CONDITIONS PRECEDENT TO THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THIS AGREEMENT, OTHER THAN THOSE EXPRESSLY STATED IN THIS AGREEMENT.

12.2. Choice of Law, Forum, and Venue

THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF PENNSYLVANIA, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO ITS CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES, GOVERN ALL MATTERS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE TRANSACTIONS IT CONTEMPLETES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ITS INTERPRETATION, CONSTRUCTION, PERFORMANCE, AND ENFORCEMENT.

You have agreed in Section 11 to submit to binding arbitration. However, if Section 11 is found not to have legal affect by any court with jurisdiction over the Agreement, actions arising out of or related to the Agreement, and FraternalArt itself, then you agree that any legal action or proceeding against FraternalArt arising out of or related to the Agreement may be brought only in the United States District Court for the Central District of Pennsylvania, or in any court of the State of Pennsylvania.

12.3. Severability and Waiver

FraternalArt’s failure to exercise or enforce any right granted in the Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of such right.

If any provision of the Agreement is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, you nonetheless agree that such court should endeavor to give full effect to the parties’ intentions as reflected in such provision, and you agree that other provisions of the Agreement remain in full effect.

12.4. No Agency

This Agreement creates no agency, partnership, joint venture, employee-employer or franchiser-franchisee relationship between you and FraternalArt, and intends no such relationship.

12.5. Survival

Sections 10, 11 and 12 will survive the termination or expiration of the Agreement.

12.6. Claim Time Limitation

You agree that regardless of any law to the contrary, any claim, cause of action, or other Dispute arising out of or related to the Agreement or use of FraternalArt℠ must be filed within one year after such claim, cause of action, or other Dispute arises, or be forever barred.

12.7. Captions Not Binding

The captions and numbering of the Agreement are a convenience only and have no legal effect.
