THIS ARBITRATION SECTION IS APPLICABLE TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.<br/><br/>1 . Mandatory Arbitration of Disputes. We each agree that any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity thereof or the use of the Service (each, a &quot;Dispute&quot; and collectively, the &quot;Disputes&quot;) will be resolved solely by binding, individual arbitration, unless expressly provided otherwise in this Arbitration Section, and not in a class, representative or consolidated action or proceeding. You and Minute Media agree that the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of these Terms and that YOU AND MINUTE MEDIA ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION. This Arbitration Section shall survive the termination of these Terms.<br/><br/>2 . Exceptions and Opt-out Option. The only exceptions to this Arbitration Section are the following:<br/></p><ul role="list" class="list-10"><li>you or Minute Media each may seek to resolve an individual Dispute in small claims court if it qualifies.</li><li>you or Minute Media each may seek injunctive or other equitable relief from a court to prevent (or enjoin) the infringement or misappropriation of our respective intellectual property rights.</li><li>you may opt out of arbitration entirely and litigate any Dispute individually if you provide us with a signed, written notice of your decision to do so as provided below; however, if you are opting out of an updated version of this arbitration provision, you understand that you will remain subject to the prior version of any arbitration provision to which you had previously agreed.<br/>‍</li></ul><p class="standard-paragraph dark">3 . Initial Dispute Resolution and Notification. You and Minute Media agree that, prior to initiating an arbitration or other legal proceeding, you and Minute Media will attempt to negotiate an informal resolution of the Dispute. To begin this process, and before initiating any arbitration or legal proceeding against Minute Media, you must send a Notice of Dispute (&quot;Notice&quot;) by certified mail to the attention of Minute Media&#x27;s Legal Department at the Minute Media address set out in these Terms. For purposes of these Terms, initiating an arbitration means filing an arbitration demand (&quot;Demand&quot;).<br/><br/>Your Notice to Minute Media must contain all of the following information: (1) your full name, address, username for the Website, and the email address associated with your account with the Service; (2) a detailed description of the nature and basis of the Dispute; (3) a description of the relief you want, including any money damages you request; and (4) your signature verifying the accuracy of the Notice and, if you are represented by counsel, authorizing Minute Media to disclose information about you to your attorney.<br/><br/>After receipt of your Notice, you and Minute Media shall engage in a good-faith effort to resolve the dispute for a period of 60 days, which both sides may extend by written agreement (&quot;Informal Dispute Resolution Period&quot;). During the Informal Dispute Resolution Period, neither you nor Minute Media may initiate an arbitration or other legal proceeding related to the Dispute.<br/><br/>If the Dispute is not resolved during the Informal Dispute Resolution Period, you may initiate an individual arbitration as provided below.<br/><br/>4 . Conducting Arbitration and Arbitration Rules. Any arbitration must be initiated with and conducted by National Arbitration &amp; Mediation (&quot;NAM&quot;) pursuant to its Comprehensive Dispute Resolution Rules and Procedures and/or its Mass Filing Supplemental Dispute Resolution Rules and Procedures (together, the &quot;NAM Rules&quot;), except as modified by these Terms. The NAM Rules are available at www.NAMADR.org, by calling NAM at 1-800-358-2550. In any instance where the applicable NAM Rules and these Terms are inconsistent, these Terms shall control.<br/><br/>An arbitration Demand filed with NAM must include a certification signed by the filing party verifying compliance with the Initial Dispute Resolution and Notification requirements and other requirements set out in this Arbitration Section.<br/><br/>If NAM fails or declines to conduct the arbitration for any reason, we will mutually select a different arbitration administrator. If we cannot agree, a court will appoint the arbitration administrator.<br/><br/>Any arbitration hearing will take place in New York, New York, unless you and Minute Media agree to a different location or to a virtual hearing.<br/><br/>The arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to decide all issues relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability and scope of this arbitration agreement, except that only a court of competent jurisdiction in New York, New York (and not an arbitrator) shall have the exclusive authority to resolve any claim that all or part of the Class Action Waiver set forth in these Terms or the Mass Filing procedures set forth in below are unenforceable, unconscionable, void, or voidable.<br/><br/>5 . Mass Filing Procedures. YOU AND MINUTE MEDIA AGREE THAT, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, EACH OF US IS WAIVING THE RIGHT TO BRING OR PARTICIPATE IN A MASS ARBITRATION. Minute Media&#x27;s receipt of one or more Notice(s) of substantially similar claims brought by or on behalf of 25 or more claimants (including you) within a 60-day period (&quot;Mass Filing&quot;) shall be subject to the additional procedures set forth below. Claims included in a Mass Filing, if not resolved during the Informal Dispute Resolution Period, may proceed only in accordance with the procedures set out below, and subject to the NAM Mass Filing Supplemental Dispute Resolution Rules and Procedures (&quot;NAM Mass Filing Rules&quot;, available at https://www.namadr.com/resources/rules-fees-forms/&quot;) to the extent not contrary to these Terms. If a court determines that this requirement is not enforceable as to your claim, then your claim may only proceed individually in court consistent with these Terms.<br/>‍<br/></p><ul role="list" class="list-10"><li>Batching: You and Minute Media agree that your and other individuals&#x27; claims deemed by Minute Media a Mass Filing may be filed with NAM in batches of no greater than 50 individuals&#x27; claims at one time, with 25 claims (or half of the total number of claims in a batch, if less than 50) selected by counsel for you and other claimants and 25 claims (or half of the total number of claims in a batch, if less than 50) selected by Minute Media. After your claim is batched and permitted to be filed as a Demand, you and Minute Media agree that selection and appointment of an arbitrator for your Demand shall be governed by the NAM Mass Filing Rules.</li><li>First (Bellwether) Batch: The first batch of up to 50 Demands are the Bellwether Arbitrations. If your claim is included in the Bellwether Arbitrations, you and Minute Media shall cooperate with the arbitrator assigned to your arbitration to resolve your claim within 120 days of the initial pre-hearing conference.</li><li>Stay of Filing of Other Claims: If your claim is not among those selected for the Bellwether Arbitrations, your claim cannot be filed until it is assigned to a batch and authorized to be filed in a later stage of this process. No arbitration fees will be assessed on you or Minute Media in connection with your claim unless and until it is assigned to a batch and authorized to be filed with NAM.</li><li>Mediation: After the Bellwether Arbitrations are completed, if your claim remains unresolved, you and Minute Media agree to mediate your claim along with any other unresolved claims included in the Mass Filing (&quot; Global Mediation&quot;). The mediator will be selected according to the procedure set forth in the NAM Rules, and Minute Media will pay the mediator&#x27;s fees. The Global Mediation shall be completed within 120 days of the selection of a mediator, unless extended by written agreement between you and Minute Media.</li><li>Election To Proceed in Court: If Global Mediation is not successful in resolving your claim, and 100 or more claims included in the Mass Filing remain unresolved, you or Minute Media may opt out of arbitration and elect to have your claim resolved in New York, New York courts consistent with these Terms. You or Minute Media must exercise this election within 45 days of the completion of Global Mediation.</li><li>Sequential Arbitration of Remaining Batches: If neither you nor Minute Media opt out of arbitration, another batch of no greater than 50 individuals&#x27; claims will be selected from the Mass Filing, with 25 claims (or half of the total number of claims in a batch, if less than 50) selected by counsel for claimants and 25 claims (or half of the total number of claims in a batch, if less than 50) selected by Minute Media. If your claim is included in this next batch of 50 claims, your claim will be filed with NAM, and you and Minute Media shall cooperate with the arbitrator assigned to your arbitration to resolve your claim within 120 days of the initial pre-hearing conference. The process of batching up to 50 individual claims at a time will continue until the parties resolve all claims included in the Mass Filing. No unbatched claim can proceed to be filed as a Demand until the previous batch has been resolved.</li><li>Tolling. For any claim subject to these Mass Filing procedures, any statute of limitations applicable to your claim shall be tolled from the date the Informal Dispute Resolution Period begins until the earlier of (1) the date your arbitration Demand is filed, or (2) the date you or Minute Media opts out of arbitration as provided above.</li></ul><p class="standard-paragraph dark">6 . Arbitration Costs. Payment of all arbitration filing fees and costs will be governed by the applicable NAM Rules. If you prevail on your claim in arbitration, Minute Media will reimburse you for any portion of the arbitration filing fees you paid that exceeded the amount you would have paid to file a complaint in a court of competent jurisdiction in New York, New York. If Minute Media prevails on your claim in arbitration, and the arbitrator finds that your claim was frivolous or filed in bad faith, the arbitrator may award Minute Media reimbursement from you of Minute Media&#x27;s arbitration filing fees and costs.<br/><br/>7 . Offer of Settlement. Minute Media may, but is not obligated to, make a written offer to settle your claim at least 14 days before the arbitration hearing date. The amount or terms of any settlement offer may not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator issues an award on the claim. If an award is issued in your favor but is less than Minute Media&#x27;s settlement offer, the arbitrator may order you to pay the arbitration costs incurred by Minute Media after its offer was made, unless otherwise prohibited by the underlying law governing your claim.<br/><br/>8 . Class Action Waiver. YOU AND MINUTE MEDIA AGREE THAT, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, EACH OF US MAY BRING CLAIMS (WHETHER IN COURT OR IN ARBITRATION) AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF, CLAIMANT, OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, COLLECTIVE, CONSOLIDATED, COORDINATED, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL, REQUEST FOR PUBLIC INJUNCTIVE RELIEF, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. This also means that you and Minute Media may not participate in any class, collective, consolidated, coordinated, private attorney general, request for public injunctive relief, or representative proceeding brought by any third party.  Notwithstanding this provision or any other language in these Terms, you or Minute Media may participate in a class-wide settlement. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, YOU AND MINUTE MEDIA WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL.<br/><br/>9 . Effect of Changes on Arbitration. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2, if Minute Media changes any terms of this Arbitration Section after the date you first accepted these Terms or any subsequent changes to these Terms, you may reject the new changes to this Arbitration Section by sending us written notice, personally signed by you, by certified mail to the attention of Minute Media’s Legal Department at the Minute Media address set out in these Terms within 30 days of the date such change became effective, as indicated by the later of (1) the &quot;Last Updated&quot; date of the Terms you seek to reject or (1) the date of Minute Media&#x27;s email to you notifying you of such change. Even if you reject a change, you will remain subject to the last version of this Arbitration Section of the Terms that you had accepted.<br/><br/>10 . Severability. If any portion of this Arbitration Section is found to be void, invalid, or otherwise unenforceable, then that portion shall be deemed to be severable and, if possible, superseded by a valid, enforceable provision, or portion thereof, that matches the intent of the original provision, or portion thereof, as closely as possible. The remainder of this Arbitration Section and all other Terms shall continue to be enforceable and valid.</p></div></div></div></div><div id="18" class="data-protection-sub-section-wrapper less-padding"><div class="data-protection-sub-header-wrapper"><div class="data-protection-sub-title-wrapper"><div class="header-3"><strong>Governing Law; Jurisdiction</strong></div></div></div><div class="data-protection-sub-content-wrapper no-paddding"><div class="data-protection-sub-content-container"><div class="data-protection-para-wrapper"><p class="standard-paragraph dark">These Terms, your relationship with us and any related disputes, are and shall be exclusively governed by and will be construed under the laws of the State of New York, without regard to the conflicts of laws provisions thereof. <br/><br/>The applicable state and federal courts of New York, New York shall have sole jurisdiction over any disputes between you and us that cannot be resolved by arbitration as provided herein..</p></div></div></div></div><div id="19" class="data-protection-sub-section-wrapper less-padding"><div class="data-protection-sub-header-wrapper"><div class="data-protection-sub-title-wrapper"><div class="header-3"><strong>Abuse Report</strong></div></div></div><div class="data-protection-sub-content-wrapper no-paddding"><div class="data-protection-sub-content-container"><div class="data-protection-para-wrapper"><p class="standard-paragraph dark">If you believe that anyone is abusing the Service or using the Service in contradictions or violation with the terms stated herein, you may report this via e-mail to: <a href="mailto:contactus@minutemedia.com?subject=Inquiry"><strong>contactus@minutemedia.com</strong></a>.</p></div></div></div></div><div id="20" class="data-protection-sub-section-wrapper less-padding"><div class="data-protection-sub-header-wrapper"><div class="data-protection-sub-title-wrapper"><div class="header-3"><strong>General</strong></div></div></div><div class="data-protection-sub-content-wrapper no-paddding"><div class="data-protection-sub-content-container"><div class="data-protection-para-wrapper"><p class="standard-paragraph dark">You hereby agree and acknowledge that you will not be an employee, agent, or partner of or joint venturer with or of Minute Media, nor will you have any authority to bind Minute Media in any respect.
