You and Epson also agree, notwithstanding Section 22.6, that a court, -not an arbitrator, may decide if a claim or cause of action is for an IP Claim. - -22.2 Binding Arbitration. You and Epson agree that all Disputes shall be -resolved by binding arbitration according to this Agreement. ARBITRATION MEANS -THAT YOU WAIVE YOUR RIGHT TO A JUDGE OR JURY IN A COURT PROCEEDING AND YOUR -GROUNDS FOR APPEAL ARE LIMITED. Pursuant to this Agreement, binding arbitration -shall be administered by JAMS, a nationally recognized arbitration authority, -pursuant to its code of procedures then in effect for consumer related disputes, -but excluding any rules that permit joinder or class actions in arbitration (for -more detail on procedure, see Section 22.6 below). You and Epson understand and -agree that (a) the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. §1, et seq.) governs the -interpretation and enforcement of this Section 22, (b) this Agreement -memorializes a transaction in interstate commerce, and (c) this Section 22 shall -survive termination of this Agreement. - -22.3 Pre-Arbitration Steps and Notice. Before submitting a claim for -arbitration, you and Epson agree to try, for sixty (60) days, to resolve any -Dispute informally. If Epson and you do not reach an agreement to resolve the -Dispute within the sixty (60) days, you or Epson may commence an arbitration. -Notice to Epson must be addressed to: Epson America, Inc., ATTN: Legal -Department, 3840 Kilroy Airport Way, Long Beach, CA 90806 (the “Epson Address”). - The Dispute Notice to you will be sent to the most recent address Epson has in -its records for you. For this reason, it is important to notify us if your -address changes by emailing us at EAILegal@ea.epson.com or writing us at the -Epson Address above. Notice of the Dispute shall include the sender’s name, -address and contact information, the facts giving rise to the Dispute, and the -relief requested (the “Dispute Notice”). Following receipt of the Dispute -Notice, Epson and you agree to act in good faith to resolve the Dispute before -commencing arbitration. - -22.4 Small Claims Court. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you may bring an -individual action in the small claims court of your state or municipality if the -action is within that court’s jurisdiction and is pending only in that court. - -22.5 WAIVER OF CLASS ACTIONS AND CLASS ARBITRATIONS. YOU AND EPSON AGREE -THAT EACH PARTY MAY BRING DISPUTES AGAINST THE OTHER PARTY ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL -CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE -PROCEEDING, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION FEDERAL OR STATE CLASS ACTIONS, OR -CLASS ARBITRATIONS. CLASS ACTION LAWSUITS, CLASS-WIDE ARBITRATIONS, PRIVATE -ATTORNEY-GENERAL ACTIONS, AND ANY OTHER PROCEEDING WHERE SOMEONE ACTS IN A -REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY ARE NOT ALLOWED. ACCORDINGLY, UNDER THE ARBITRATION -PROCEDURES OUTLINED IN THIS SECTION, AN ARBITRATOR SHALL NOT COMBINE OR -CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PARTY’S CLAIMS WITHOUT THE WRITTEN CONSENT OF ALL -AFFECTED PARTIES TO AN ARBITRATION PROCEEDING. - -22.6 Arbitration Procedure. If you or Epson commences arbitration, the -arbitration shall be governed by the rules of JAMS that are in effect when the -arbitration is filed, excluding any rules that permit arbitration on a class or -representative basis (the “JAMS Rules”), available at http://www.jamsadr.com or -by calling 1-800-352-5267, and under the rules set forth in this Agreement. All -Disputes shall be resolved by a single neutral arbitrator, and both parties -shall have a reasonable opportunity to participate in the selection of the -arbitrator. The arbitrator is bound by the terms of this Agreement. The -arbitrator, and not any federal, state or local court or agency, shall have -exclusive authority to resolve all disputes arising out of or relating to the -interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of this Agreement, -including any claim that all or any part of this Agreement is void or voidable. -Notwithstanding this broad delegation of authority to the arbitrator, a court -may determine the limited question of whether a claim or cause of action is for -an IP Claim, which is excluded from the definition of “Disputes” in Section 22.1 -above. The arbitrator shall be empowered to grant whatever relief would be -available in a court under law or in equity. The arbitrator may award you the -same damages as a court could, and may award declaratory or injunctive relief -only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent -necessary to provide relief warranted by that party’s individual claim. In some -instances, the costs of arbitration can exceed the costs of litigation and the -right to discovery may be more limited in arbitration than in court. The -arbitrator’s award is binding and may be entered as a judgment in any court of -competent jurisdiction. - -You may choose to engage in arbitration hearings by telephone. Arbitration -hearings not conducted by telephone shall take place in a location reasonably -accessible from your primary residence, or in Orange County, California, at your -option. - -a) Initiation of Arbitration Proceeding. If either you or Epson decides to -arbitrate a Dispute, both parties agree to the following procedure: - -(i) Write a Demand for Arbitration. The demand must include a description of -the Dispute and the amount of damages sought to be recovered. You can find a -copy of a Demand for Arbitration at http://www.jamsadr.com (“Demand for -Arbitration”). - -(ii) Send three copies of the Demand for Arbitration, plus the appropriate -filing fee, to: JAMS, 500 North State College Blvd., Suite 600 Orange, CA 92868, -U.S.A. - -(iii) Send one copy of the Demand for Arbitration to the other party (same -address as the Dispute Notice), or as otherwise agreed by the parties. - -b) Hearing Format. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer -made shall not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator -determines the amount, if any, to which you or Epson is entitled. The discovery -or exchange of non-privileged information relevant to the Dispute may be allowed -during the arbitration. - -c) Arbitration Fees. Epson shall pay, or (if applicable) reimburse you for, -all JAMS filings and arbitrator fees for any arbitration commenced (by you or -Epson) pursuant to provisions of this Agreement. - -d) Award in Your Favor. For Disputes in which you or Epson seeks $75,000 or -less in damages exclusive of attorney’s fees and costs, if the arbitrator’s -decision results in an award to you in an amount greater than Epson’s last -written offer, if any, to settle the Dispute, Epson will: (i) pay you $1,000 or -the amount of the award, whichever is greater; (ii) pay you twice the amount of -your reasonable attorney’s fees, if any; and (iii) reimburse you for any -expenses (including expert witness fees and costs) that your attorney reasonably -accrues for investigating, preparing, and pursuing the Dispute in arbitration. -Except as agreed upon by you and Epson in writing, the arbitrator shall -determine the amount of fees, costs, and expenses to be paid by Epson pursuant -to this Section 22.6d). - -e) Attorney’s Fees. Epson will not seek its attorney’s fees and expenses for -any arbitration commenced involving a Dispute under this Agreement. Your right -to attorney’s fees and expenses under Section 22.6(d) above does not limit your -rights to attorney’s fees and expenses under applicable law; notwithstanding the -foregoing, the arbitrator may not award duplicative awards of attorney’s fees -and expenses. - -22.7 Opt-out. You may elect to opt-out (exclude yourself) from the final, -binding, individual arbitration procedure and waiver of class and representative -proceedings specified in this Agreement by sending a written letter to the Epson -Address within thirty (30) days of your assent to this Agreement (including -without limitation the purchase, download, installation of the Software or other -applicable use of Epson Hardware, products and services) that specifies (i) your -name, (ii) your mailing address, and (iii) your request to be excluded from the -final, binding individual arbitration procedure and waiver of class and -representative proceedings specified in this Section 22. In the event that you -opt-out consistent with the procedure set forth above, all other terms shall -continue to apply, including the requirement to provide notice prior to -litigation. - -22.8 Amendments to Section 22. Notwithstanding any provision in this -Agreement to the contrary, you and Epson agree that if Epson makes any future -amendments to the dispute resolution procedure and class action waiver -provisions (other than a change to Epson’s address) in this Agreement, Epson -will obtain your affirmative assent to the applicable amendment. If you do not -affirmatively assent to the applicable amendment, you are agreeing that you will -arbitrate any Dispute between the parties in accordance with the language of -this Section 22 (or resolve disputes as provided for in Section 22.7, if you -timely elected to opt-out when you first assented to this Agreement). - -22.9 Severability. If any provision in this Section 22 is found to be -unenforceable, that provision shall be severed with the remainder of this -Agreement remaining in full force and effect. The foregoing shall not apply to -the prohibition against class or representative actions as provided in Section -22.5. This means that if Section 22.5 is found to be unenforceable, the entire -Section 22 (but only Section 22) shall be null and void. - -23. For New Jersey Residents. NOTWITHSTANDING ANY TERMS SET FORTH IN THIS -AGREEMENT, IF ANY OF THE PROVISIONS SET FORTH IN SECTIONS 7 OR 8 ARE HELD -UNENFORCEABLE, VOID OR INAPPLICABLE UNDER NEW JERSEY LAW, THEN ANY SUCH -PROVISION SHALL NOT APPLY TO YOU BUT THE REST OF THE AGREEMENT SHALL REMAIN -BINDING ON YOU AND EPSON. NOTWITHSTANDING ANY PROVISION IN THIS AGREEMENT, -NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT IS INTENDED TO, NOR SHALL IT BE DEEMED OR CONSTRUED -TO, LIMIT ANY RIGHTS AVAILABLE TO YOU UNDER THE TRUTH-IN-CONSUMER CONTRACT, -WARRANTY AND NOTICE ACT. - -Rev.
