The parties further agree that, to the extent applicable, the JAMS Mass Arbitration Procedures and Guidelines shall apply. A copy of the demand for arbitration shall be sent via email to [email protected]. The JAMS Rules referenced above are available at https://www.jamsadr.com/adr-rules-procedures/.
You and the Company further agree:
15.9.1 The arbitration will be handled by a sole arbitrator. The parties agree that the JAMS arbitrator must have the following minimum qualification: practicing attorneys or retired federal court judges who have at least ten years of substantive expertise in litigating and resolving of complex business disputes, including motions to compel arbitration and litigation or adjudication regarding whether disputes are arbitrable;
15.9.2 For purpose of Sections 16.1 and 16.2 of the JAMS Rules, the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures and JAMS Expedited Procedures shall not apply unless otherwise explicitly agreed to by all parties to the Dispute;
15.9.3 In lieu of JAMS Rule 15, the parties shall be presented with a list of eight (8) potential arbitrators, be allowed three (3) strikes and the parties shall rank those potential arbitrators in order of preference. JAMS shall select the arbitrator with the highest combined preference (e.g., if both parties select a potential arbitrator as their top preference, that arbitrator will be selected). To the extent a process arbitrator is appointed pursuant to the JAMS Rules, the selection process shall also be as prescribed in this paragraph;
15.9.4 In lieu of JAMS Rule 18, the parties shall have the right to submit a dispositive motion at the outset of the arbitration to the Arbitrator in order to resolve issues other than the ultimate issue of fact. The submission and scheduling of such motions shall be addressed at a conference held before the JAMS arbitrator, and the Parties agree that any dispositive motions shall be resolved and the remainder of the arbitral proceeding stayed pending resolution, absent good cause and immediate necessity to proceed.
15.9.5 Unless and only to the extent prohibited under JAMS Rules, the arbitration will be held in Wilmington, Delaware or, at either your or our election, will be conducted telephonically or via other remote electronic means;
15.9.6 The JAMS Rules will govern payment of all arbitration fees, currently available at https://www.jamsadr.com/arbitration-fees, You will only be required to pay arbitration fees of $250 in connection with any arbitration initiated under this Section 16, but You will still be responsible for paying your own attorneys’ fees;
15.9.7 Except as otherwise waived or limited under the Terms or this Agreement, the JAMS arbitrator shall be authorized to award any remedies, including equitable or injunctive relief, that would be available in an individual lawsuit except:
(a) In any arbitration arising out of or related to this Agreement, the arbitrator(s) are not empowered to award punitive or exemplary damages, and the parties waive any right to recover any such damages; and
(b) In any arbitration arising out of or related to this Agreement, the arbitrator(s) may not award any incidental, indirect or consequential damages, including damages for lost profits;
15.9.8 The arbitration decision and award shall consist of a written statement signed by the Arbitrator regarding the disposition of each claim and the relief, if any, as to each claim. Unless the parties agree otherwise, the award shall be a reasoned award and contain a concise written statement of the reasons for the award;
15.9.9 Except as and to the extent otherwise may be required by law, the arbitration proceeding, pleadings, and any award shall be treated as confidential and shall not be used by the parties except as may be necessary in connection with a court application for a preliminary remedy, a judicial challenge to an award or its confirmation and enforcement.
15.9.10 In the event JAMS is unavailable or unwilling to hear the dispute in accordance with this Agreement, the parties shall agree to, or a court shall select, another arbitration provider subject to the procedural agreements of this Section 16; and
15.9.11 You and the Company agree that any award issued by the Arbitrator in excess of $50,000 in favor of either party, or any award which grants any form of declaratory or equitable relief that would significantly impact Our other Customers or the operation of the Platform, may be appealed in accordance with the JAMS Optional Arbitration Appeal Procedures at either party’s election. The JAMS Optional Arbitration Appeal Procedures are available at https://www.jamsadr.com/adr-rules-procedures/.
15.10 Batch Arbitration. To increase efficiency of resolution, in the event 20 or more similar arbitration demands against the Company, presented by or with the assistance of the same law firm or organization or group of law firms or organizations working in coordination, are submitted to JAMS in accordance with the rules described above within a 60-day period, JAMS shall consolidate those arbitrations as contemplated in the JAMS Mass Arbitration Rules. Following the submission, initial presentation and resolution of briefing and motion practice contemplated in Section 15.9.4 on dispositive issues other than the ultimate issue of fact, to the extent claims and issues remain pending, JAMS shall group the arbitration demands into a first batch of no more than 25 demands to be set for resolution as a single arbitration. Once resolution of the first batch has concluded (or sooner if the parties agree), counsel for the parties must engage in a single mediation before a JAMS mediator of all remaining demands from claimants. Counsel for the parties must agree on a mediator within thirty (30) days after conclusion of the first batch. If the parties cannot agree on a JAMS mediator within 30 days, JAMS will appoint a JAMS mediator as an administrative matter. All parties will cooperate for the purpose of ensuring that the mediation is scheduled as quickly as practicable after the mediator is appointed. If the parties are unable to resolve their demands by mediation, JAMS shall continue to batch the remaining arbitration demands into batches of no more than 25 demands per batch (plus, to the extent there are fewer than 25 arbitration demands left over after the batching described above, a final batch consisting of the remaining demands) for administration. A single arbitration with one set of filing and administrative fees and one arbitrator assigned per batch. For avoidance of doubt, consolidation does not require that all arbitrations in a single batch be decided the same, nor does it impair your right to present any evidence or argument that you think particular to your case, so long as consistent with JAMS Rules. You agree to cooperate in good faith with the Company and JAMS to implement such a batch approach to resolution and fees and to efficiently consolidate discovery, submission of evidence, and motion practice.
15.11 By signing a demand for arbitration, a party certifies, to the best of their knowledge, information, and belief, formed after an inquiry reasonable under the circumstances, that: (i) the demand for arbitration is not being presented for any improper purpose, such as to harass, cause unnecessary delay, or needlessly increase the cost of dispute resolution; (ii) the claims and other legal contentions are warranted by existing law or by a non-frivolous argument for extending, modifying, or reversing existing law or for establishing new law; and (iii) the factual contentions have evidentiary support or, if specifically so identified, will likely have evidentiary support after a reasonable opportunity for further investigation or discovery. The Arbitrator shall be authorized to afford any relief or impose any sanctions available under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11 or any applicable state law (including attorney’s fees) for either party’s violation of this requirement.
