Addendum #1:

PSL Pay Service Addendum

The following terms are a binding agreement between you and Popshoplive and govern your use of the PSL Pay Service. The terms set forth herein constitute an addendum (“Addendum”) to the Agreement, including the Terms of Service, between you and us, and accordingly, the Agreement incorporated herein by reference. Your use of the PSL Pay Service is subject at all times to this Addendum and the Agreement. In the event of a conflict between this Addendum and the other terms of the Agreement, the terms of this Addendum shall prevail with respect to the PSL Pay Service.

a. Payment Processing Through Our Payment Processor

The PSL Pay Service facilitates payments (“Platform Payments”) between you, the Vendor, and your Buyers on the Popshoplive platform. The PSL Pay Service is offered through Popshop’s payment processing partner, Stripe.

In order to use the PSL Pay Service, you must agree to the Stripe Connected Account Agreement , which includes the Stripe Services Agreement.

By agreeing to the terms of this Addendum, you are agreeing to the creation of an account with Stripe and to be bound by the Stripe Connected Account Agreement and Stripe Services Agreement, as modified by Stripe from time to time.

Popshoplive is not a party to your agreements with Stripe and does not act as a payment processor in any respect. Accordingly, Popshoplive is not liable to you for any payment processing or other transactions, or any liability resulting therefrom.

As a condition of receiving payment processing services through Stripe, you agree to provide Popshoplive and Stripe with accurate and complete information about you and your business, and you authorize Popshoplive and Stripe to share this information and transaction information related to your use of the payment processing services. You must keep all payment information you provide us up-to-date, accurate and complete. You also must agree to provide all necessary notices to and obtain all necessary rights and consents from your customers to allow Popshoplive and its service providers, including Stripe, to share and process the customers’ personal information, including payment data, for purposes of providing services.

Do not share your payment card, bank account or other financial information with any other person. We expressly disclaim any liability to you, and you agree to hold us harmless for any damages you may suffer as a result of the disclosure of your personal financial information to any unintended recipients.

Popshoplive may enable you and your customers to make and accept Platform Payments using credit, debit, or prepaid cards, by linking your bank account, or by any other payment method we support. We reserve the right to cancel your ability to make or receive payments with one or more of the payment methods you have authorized in our sole and absolute discretion.

b. Payment Disputes

All requests for Platform Payment chargebacks, errors, claims, refunds and disputes (“Payment Disputes”) related to you, your account, your transaction activity, or your customers, will be subject to review by Popshoplive (either directly or in coordination with Stripe) in accordance with the rules applicable to the payment method used to make the Platform Payment, including the Credit Card dispute terms set forth later on in this Addendum. The handling and resolution of all Payment Disputes will be in Popshop’s absolute discretion. By using the PSL Pay Service, you agree to Popshop’s Payment Dispute mechanisms, which will automatically withhold and/or deduct funds from your account when a Payment Dispute is initiated pending review and resolution of such Payment Dispute, and you authorize us to take such actions in your account with or without notice. Popshoplive is not liable to you under any circumstances for Payment Disputes we are unable to resolve in your favor. We will normally process your valid written Payment Dispute request within thirty (30) days after we receive it, unless a shorter period is required by law. You may file a response to a Payment Dispute by emailing it to support at [email protected]. If you close or deactivate your Account before we adjudicate a Payment Dispute, we will not be able to issue you any amounts you are owed. We will attempt to pay you any Payment Dispute amounts you are owed using the same method the dispute was made, but we cannot guarantee that we will be able to do so if your payment information is inaccurate, incomplete, or has been canceled.

If your actions result, or are likely to result in Payment Disputes, a violation of this Addendum or create other risks to Popshoplive or our payment processing partners, or if we determine that your account has been used by you or others to engage in deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, then we may permanently withhold any amounts owed to you in our sole discretion. If you have a past due balance due on any account, or for any additional amounts that we determine you owe us, we may, without limiting any other rights or remedies: (a) charge one or more of your payment methods; (b) deduct one or more of your Popshoplive accounts (c) offset any amounts you owe us against amounts you may be owed; (d) invoice you for amounts due to us, which such amounts will be due upon receipt; (e) reverse or block any credits to your bank account; or (f) collect payment from you by any other lawful means.

Popshoplive reserves all rights permissible under law to recover payment and all costs and expenses incurred, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, in our pursuit of payments owed to us or liability incurred by us as a result of your use of our PSL Pay Service. You explicitly agree that all communication in relation to delinquent accounts or overdue payments will be made by electronic mail or by phone. Such communication may be made by Popshoplive or by anyone on its behalf, including but not limited to a third-party collections agent.

c. Additional ACH Authorization

By using the PSL Pay Service, you authorize us (either acting directly or through Stripe on Popshop’s behalf), where applicable, to make Automated Clearing House (“ACH”) withdrawals from your bank account, and to make any inquiries we consider necessary to validate any dispute involving payments to of from you, which may include ordering a credit report and performing other credit checks or verifying the information you provide us against third-party databases. You authorize Popshoplive and/or Stripe to initiate one or more ACH debit entries (withdrawals) or the creation of an equivalent bank draft for the specified amount(s) from your bank account, and you authorize the financial institution that holds you bank account to deduct such payments. You also authorize the bank that holds your bank account to deduct any such payments in the amounts and frequency designated in your account.

We may initiate a collection process or legal action to collect any money owed to us. You agree to pay all our costs for such action, including any reasonable attorneys’ fees. Federal law limits your liability for any fraudulent, erroneous, or unauthorized transactions from your bank account based on how quickly you report it to your financial institution.

d. Use of the PSL Pay Service

Only businesses (including sole proprietors), bona fide charitable organizations, and other entities or persons located in the United States are eligible to use the PSL Pay Service. To register for a Stripe account, you must provide your business or trade name, physical address, email, phone number, tax identification number, URL, the nature of your business or activities, and certain other information about you, including personal information, that Stripe may require. Nothing in this Addendum shall be interpreted as an assurance that Stripe will authorize your account and enable you to use the PSL Pay Service. Your use of Stripe shall be subject at all times to Stripe’s verification, underwriting, business and regulatory, legal and compliance requirements.

You may only use the PSL Pay Service to facilitate bona fide transactions with your customers on the Popshoplive platform. You may not use the PSL Pay Service to send money to others, to conduct any personal transactions, or for any other purposes prohibited herein.

Only persons aged 18 or older shall be eligible to authorize participation in the PSL Pay Service.

You authorize us to retrieve information about you from our service providers and other third parties, including credit reporting agencies and information bureaus and you authorize and direct such third parties to compile and provide such information to us. You acknowledge that this may include your name, addresses, credit history, and other data about you or your representative. You acknowledge that we may use your information to verify any other information you provide to us, and that any information we collect may affect our assessment of your overall risk to our business. You acknowledge that in some cases, such information may lead to suspension or termination of your account.

Popshoplive is not a bank and we do not accept deposits, provide loans or extend credit.

e. Your Relationship with Your Customers

You may only use the PSL Pay Service for legitimate transactions with your customers. You know your customers better than we do, and you are responsible for your relationship with them. Popshoplive is not responsible for the products or services you publicize or sell, or that your Customers purchase using our services; or if you accept donations, for your communication to your customers of the intended use of such donations. You affirm that you are solely responsible for the nature and quality of the products or services you provide, and for delivery, support, refunds, returns, and for any other ancillary services you provide to your customers.

In providing our PSL Pay Service to you, we have no way of knowing if any particular purchase, sale, donation, order, or other transaction is accurate or complete, or typical for your business. You are responsible for knowing whether a transaction initiated by your customer is erroneous (such as a Customer purchasing one item when they meant to order another) or suspicious (such as unusual or large purchases, or a request for delivery to a foreign country where this typically does not occur). If you are unsure if a transaction is erroneous or suspicious, you agree to research the transaction and, if necessary, contact your customer before fulfilling or completing the transaction. You are solely responsible for any losses you incur due to erroneous or fraudulent transactions in connection with your use of the PSL Pay Service.

Please keep in mind that you are liable for all losses you incur when lost or stolen payment credentials or accounts are used to purchase products or services from you. Popshoplive does not and will not insure you against losses caused by fraud under any circumstances. For example, if someone pretends to be a legitimate buyer but is a fraudulent actor, you will be responsible for any resulting costs, including Payment Disputes and Credit Card Disputes, even if you do not recover the fraudulently purchased product.

It is very important to us that your customers understand the purpose, amount, and conditions of charges or transactions you submit to us. When using the PSL Pay Service you agree to: (i) accurately communicate, and not misrepresent, the nature of the transaction, and the amount of the charge; (ii) provide a receipt that accurately describes each transaction to customers. You also agree to maintain and make available to your customers a fair and neutral return, refund, cancellation, or adjustment policy. You are immediately responsible to us for all refunds and returns of your customers.

f. Credit Card Disputes, Reversals, Customer Refunds, returns

You are immediately responsible to us for all Credit Card Disputes and Reversals or Fines of your customers (as such terms are defined later on in this Addendum), regardless of the reason or timing.

In many but not all cases, you may have the ability to challenge a Credit Card Dispute by submitting evidence to us. We may request additional information to provide to Payment Method Providers (as defined below) to assist you in contesting the Credit Card Dispute, but we cannot guarantee that your challenge will be successful. Payment Method Providers may deny your challenge for any reason they deem appropriate. Where a challenge is entirely or partially successful, your account will be credited with the funds associated with the Charge that is the subject of the Credit Card Dispute (or a portion thereof). You may not submit a new Charge which duplicates a Transaction that is subject to a Credit Card Dispute.

Customers typically raise payment card network Disputes (also known as “chargebacks”) when a merchant fails to provide the product or service to the customer, or where the payment card account holder did not authorize the charge. High Dispute rates (typically those exceeding 1%) may result in your inability to use our services. Failure to timely and effectively manage Credit Card Disputes with your Customers may ultimately result in your inability to accept payment cards for your business.

When you accept payment card transactions, Network Rules specifically prohibit you from (i) providing cash refunds for a charge on a credit card, unless required by law, (ii) initiating a Refund more than five calendar days after issuing a credit to your customer, (iii) accepting cash, its equivalent, or any other item of value for a refund, (iv) submitting what you believe or know to be a fraudulent Charge or a Charge that has not been authorized by the cardholder, (v) submitting a Charge where the transaction has not been completed or the goods or services have not been shipped or provided (except where the cardholder has paid a partial or full prepayment or the cardholder’s consent is obtained for a recurring transaction).

g. Fees and Fines

We provide the PSL Pay Service to you at the rates and for the fees described at the time of sign up and that may change from time to time. The Fees include charges for transactions (such as processing a payment, the “Payment Processing Fee”) and for other events connected with your account (such as handling a disputed charge). We may revise the Fees at any time. However, we will provide you with advance notice before revisions become applicable to you (or any period of notice if it is required by applicable Law).

In addition to the Fees, you are also responsible for any penalties or fines imposed in relation to your account (whether imposed on you or Popshop) by any Payment Method Provider resulting from your use of our PSL Pay Service in a manner not permitted by this Addendum or the Payment Method Provider’s rules and regulations.

Taxes

See Section 7.4, above for provisions related to Taxes.

If you use the PSL Pay Service again or register for another account, you are consenting to this Addendum. We may terminate this Addendum or close your account at any time for any reason (including, without limitation, for any activity that may create harm or loss to the goodwill of a Payment Method).

Termination does not immediately relieve you of obligations incurred by you under this Addendum. Upon termination, you agree to (i) complete all pending transactions, and (ii) stop accepting new transactions.

Upon termination, you understand and agree that (i) all rights granted to you hereunder will end; (ii) we reserve the right (but have no obligation) to delete all of your information and account data stored on our servers; (iii) we will not be liable to you for compensation, reimbursement, or damages related to your use of the PSL Pay Service, or any termination or suspension of the PSL Pay Service or deletion of your information or account data; and (iv) you are still liable to us for any fees or fines, or other financial obligations incurred by you or through your use of the PSL Pay Service prior to termination.

Addendum #4:

ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER

  1. Application of this Arbitration Agreement and Class Action Waiver (the “Arbitration Agreement”).  This Arbitration Agreement is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq. and evidences a transaction involving commerce.  Contractor (sometimes also referred to as “you” or “your”) and 24LA, LLC or one of its affiliates, subsidiaries, or parent companies (“the Company”) specifically acknowledge and agree that nothing in this Arbitration Agreement, including without limitation, referencing the types of claims covered by this Arbitration Agreement, is intended in any way to create an employment relationship or imply that Contractor is an employee of the Company. Contractor acknowledges, agrees and represents that no employment relationship exists between Contractor and Company. Contractor is a professional that provides services to the Company as an independent contractor and/or as an employee of a contractor, staffing agency, or professional employer organization. 

Except as it otherwise provides, this Arbitration Agreement applies to any dispute arising out of or related to Contractor’s relationship and performance and/or termination and/or work services with the Company and/or any type of claim arising out of an alleged employment relationship. Except as otherwise provided in this Arbitration Agreement, the Parties voluntarily acknowledge this Arbitration Agreement applies to any dispute, past, present, or future, the Company may have against you or you may have against: (1) Company; (2) its officers, directors, principals, shareholders, members, owners, employees, or agents; (3) Company’s benefit plans or the plan’s sponsors, fiduciaries, administrators, affiliates, or agents; and (4) all successors and assigns of any of them.  Each and all of the entities or individuals listed in (1) through (4) of the preceding sentence can enforce this Arbitration Agreement.  All disputes covered by this Arbitration Agreement will be decided by a single arbitrator through final and binding arbitration and not by way of court or jury trial.  

Except as it otherwise provides, this Arbitration Agreement is intended to apply to the resolution of disputes that otherwise would be resolved in a court of law or before a forum other than arbitration, including without limitation, disputes arising out of or relating to the application for employment, background checks, privacy, employment relationship, or the termination of that relationship (including post-employment defamation or retaliation), trade secrets, unfair competition, breach of contract (express or implied), compensation, classification, minimum wage, expense reimbursement, overtime, breaks and rest periods, or retaliation, discrimination, or harassment and claims arising under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Defend Trade Secrets Act, Civil Rights Act of 1964, 42 U.S.C. § 1981, Rehabilitation Act, Civil Rights Acts of 1866 and 1871, Civil Rights Act of 1991, 8 U.S.C. § 1324b (unfair immigration related practices), 41 U.S.C. § 4712, Pregnancy Discrimination Act, Equal Pay Act, Americans With Disabilities Act, Age Discrimination in Employment Act, Older Workers’ Benefit Protection Act, Occupational Safety and Health Act, Family and Medical Leave Act, Fair Labor Standards Act, Employee Retirement Income Security Act (except for claims for employee benefits under any benefit plan sponsored by the Company and covered by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 or funded by insurance), Affordable Care Act, Genetic Information Non-Discrimination Act, Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act, Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act, Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, the False Claims Act, and state statutes or regulations, if any, addressing the same or similar subject matters, and all other federal or state legal claims (including without limitation torts or common law actions) arising out of or relating to your application, selection, employment, or the termination of work services. Additionally, any claims or disputes regarding Your work and/or alleged employment status with Company, including without limitation any claims that a Contractor should be classified as an employee of Company is arbitrable and covered under this Arbitration Agreement.

The Arbitrator, and not any court, shall have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the validity, applicability, enforceability, unconscionability, or waiver of this Arbitration Agreement including, but not limited to, any claim that all or any part of this Arbitration Agreement is void or voidable.  However, the preceding sentence does not apply to the Class and Collective Action Waivers or California Private Attorneys General Act Individual Action Requirement below. Notwithstanding any other language in this Arbitration Agreement and/or any rules or procedures that might otherwise apply by virtue of this Arbitration Agreement (including without limitation the JAMS Rules discussed below) or any amendments and/or modifications to those rules, any claim that the all or part of the Class and Collective Action Waivers or California Private Attorneys General Act Individual Action Requirement are unenforceable, inapplicable, unconscionable, or void or voidable, will be determined only by a court of competent jurisdiction and not by an Arbitrator.

  1. Limitations On How This Arbitration Agreement Applies.  The following claims are not covered under this Arbitration Agreement: (i) Workers’ Compensation benefits, state disability insurance benefits or unemployment insurance benefits; however, the Arbitration Agreement applies to discrimination or retaliation claims based upon seeking such benefits; and (ii) disputes that an applicable federal statute expressly states cannot be arbitrated or subject to a pre-dispute arbitration agreement. If any claim(s) not covered under this Arbitration Agreement above are combined with claims that are covered under this Arbitration Agreement, to the maximum extent allowed under applicable law, the covered claims will be arbitrated and continue to be covered under this Arbitration Agreement. 

This Arbitration Agreement also does not apply to claims between you and the Company pending in a state or federal court or arbitration as of the date of your receipt of this Arbitration Agreement (“pending claim”).  However, if the pending claim is subject to a prior or existing agreement to arbitrate, that agreement will remain in full force and effect and continue to apply to the pending claim.

Nothing in this Arbitration Agreement prevents you from making a report to or filing a claim or charge with a government agency including, without limitation, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, U.S. Department of Labor, National Labor Relations Board, Occupational Safety and Health Administration, or law enforcement authorities.  Nothing in this Arbitration Agreement prevents the investigation by a government agency of any report, claim or charge otherwise covered by this Arbitration Agreement.  This Arbitration Agreement also does not prevent federal administrative agencies from adjudicating claims and awarding remedies based on those claims, even if the claims would otherwise be covered by this Arbitration Agreement.  Nothing in this Arbitration Agreement prevents or excuses a party from satisfying any conditions precedent and/or exhausting administrative remedies under applicable law before bringing a claim in arbitration.  The Company will not retaliate against you for filing a claim with an administrative agency or for exercising rights (individually or in concert with others) under Section 7 of the National Labor Relations Act.  This Arbitration Agreement also does not prevent or prohibit you in any way from reporting, communicating about, or disclosing claims for discrimination, harassment, retaliation, or sexual abuse. 

A party may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for temporary or preliminary injunctive relief in connection with an arbitrable controversy in accordance with applicable law, and any such application shall not be deemed a waiver of this Arbitration Agreement to arbitrate.  The court to which the application is made is authorized to consider the merits of the arbitrable controversy to the extent it deems necessary in making its ruling, but only to the extent permitted by applicable law.  All determinations of final relief, however, will be decided in arbitration. 

  1. Arbitration Procedures and Selection.  Unless you and the Company mutually agree otherwise, the Arbitrator shall be an attorney experienced in arbitrating employment law disputes and licensed to practice law in the state in which the arbitration is convened or a retired federal or state judicial officer from any jurisdiction.  The location of the arbitration proceeding shall take place in the same county and state where you last worked for the Company, unless each party to the arbitration agrees in writing otherwise.

The arbitration will be administered by JAMS, and except as provided in this Arbitration Agreement, will be under the then current JAMS Comprehensive Rules and Procedures (“JAMS Rules”), which are available through Human Resources or via the internet at https://www.jamsadr.com/adr-rules-procedures/ or by using a service such as www.google.com to search for “JAMS Comprehensive Rules and Procedures;” provided, however, that if there is a conflict between the JAMS Rules and this Arbitration Agreement, this Arbitration Agreement shall govern.

The parties shall attempt to mutually choose an Arbitrator, but in the event the parties do not mutually choose an arbitrator, the Arbitrator will be selected pursuant to the JAMS Rules as follows:  JAMS will give each party a list of nine (9) arbitrators (who are subject to the qualifications listed in the preceding paragraph) drawn from its panel of arbitrators.  Each party will have ten (10) calendar days to strike all names on the list it deems unacceptable.  If only one common name remains on the lists of all Parties, that individual will be designated as the Arbitrator.  If more than one common name remains on the lists of all Parties, the Parties will strike names alternately from the list of common names by telephone conference administered by JAMS with the party to strike first to be determined by a coin toss conducted by JAMS until only one remains.  If no common name remains on the lists of all Parties, JAMS will furnish an additional list of nine (9) arbitrators from which the Parties will strike alternately by telephone conference administered by JAMS with the party to strike first to be determined by a coin toss conducted by JAMS until only one name remains.  That person will be designated as the Arbitrator.  If the individual selected cannot serve, JAMS will issue another list of nine (9) arbitrators and repeat the alternate striking selection process.  If for any reason JAMS will not administer the arbitration consistent with this Arbitration Agreement, either party may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction with authority over the location where the arbitration will be conducted for appointment of a neutral Arbitrator.

The Arbitrator may award any remedy to which a party is entitled under applicable law, and remedies will be limited to those that would be available to a party in his or her individual capacity for the claims presented to the Arbitrator, and no remedies that otherwise would be available to an individual under applicable law will be forfeited.  The Arbitrator shall apply the substantive federal, state, or local law applicable to the claims asserted.  Either party may file dispositive motions including, without limitation, a motion to dismiss and/or a motion for summary judgment, and the Arbitrator will apply the standards governing such motions under the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.  A party may make an offer of judgment in a manner consistent with, and within the time limitations, consequences, and effects provided in Rule 68 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. 

  1. Starting The Arbitration.  The party bringing the claim must demand arbitration in writing and deliver the written demand by hand or first-class mail to the other party within the applicable statute of limitations period.  The demand for arbitration shall include identification of the parties, a statement of the legal and factual basis of the claim(s), and a specification of the remedy sought.  Any demand for arbitration made to the Company shall be provided to the Chief Legal Officer of 24LA at [email protected].  You will be given notice of any demand for arbitration by the Company at the last home address you provided to the Company.  The demand for arbitration must be signed by the party making the demand for arbitration.  The Arbitrator shall resolve all disputes regarding the timeliness or propriety of the demand for arbitration.
  2. Class and Collective Action Waivers.  The Company and you agree to bring any claim on an individual basis and not as a class or collective action.  Accordingly,

(a) There will be no right or authority for any dispute to be brought, heard or arbitrated as a class action and the Arbitrator will have no authority to hear or preside over any such claim (“Class Action Waiver”).  The Class Action Waiver shall be severable from this Arbitration Agreement if there is a final judicial determination that the Class Action Waiver is invalid, unenforceable, unconscionable, void or voidable.  In such instances, the class action must be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction – not in arbitration. 

(b) There will be no right or authority for any dispute to be brought, heard or arbitrated as a collective action and the Arbitrator will have no authority to hear or preside over any such claim (“Collective Action Waiver”).  The Collective Action Waiver shall be severable from this Arbitration Agreement if there is a final judicial determination that the Collective Action Waiver is invalid, unenforceable, unconscionable, void or voidable.  In such instances, the collective action must be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction – not in arbitration.

  1. California Private Attorneys General Act (“PAGA”) Individual Action Requirement.  The Company and you agree to arbitrate PAGA claims on an individual basis only.  Therefore, any claim by you under PAGA to recover unpaid wages, civil penalties, or any other individual relief must be arbitrated under this Arbitration Agreement. The Company and you also agree that your non-individual PAGA claims will be stayed and you will not pursue any non-individual PAGA claims in Court until after the Arbitrator makes a final determination as to your status as “aggrieved,” and, then, only if the determination is that you were “aggrieved”; the Arbitrator, and not any court, will determine your alleged status as “an aggrieved employee.” The Arbitrator is without authority to preside over any PAGA claim by you on behalf of any other person or joined by or consolidated with another person’s PAGA claim.  This PAGA Individual Action Requirement clause will be severable from this Arbitration Agreement if there is a final judicial determination that it is invalid, unenforceable, unconscionable, void, or voidable.  In such a case, the PAGA action must be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction—not in arbitration—but the part of the PAGA Individual Action Requirement that is enforceable will be enforced in arbitration.
  2. Discovery and Subpoenas.  Each party may take the deposition of two individual fact witnesses and any expert witness designated by another party.  Each party may also propound ten (10) interrogatories, ten (10) requests for admission, and requests for production of documents, and each party may subpoena witnesses and documents for discovery or the arbitration hearing, including testimony and documents relevant to the case from third parties.  The subpoena shall be issued in accordance with any applicable state or federal law.  Additional discovery may be conducted by mutual stipulation, and the Arbitrator will have exclusive authority to entertain requests for additional discovery, and to grant or deny such requests based on the circumstances of a particular case.  The Arbitrator will have exclusive authority to resolve discovery disputes.
  3. Paying For The Arbitration.  You and the Company shall follow the JAMS Rules applicable to initial filing fees, but in no event will you be responsible for any portion of those fees in excess of the filing or initial appearance fees applicable to court actions in the jurisdiction where the arbitration will be conducted.  After you pay your portion of any initial filing fee, the Company shall pay any remaining portion of the initial fee and also will pay all costs and expenses unique to arbitration including, without limitation, the arbitrator’s fees.  Each party will pay for its own costs and attorneys’ fees, if any, but if any party prevails on a claim which affords the prevailing party attorneys’ fees, the Arbitrator is authorized to award reasonable fees to the prevailing party as provided by law.  The Arbitrator will resolve any disputes regarding costs/fees associated with arbitration.
  1. The Arbitration Hearing And Award.  The Arbitrator will issue a decision or award in writing, stating the essential findings of fact and conclusions of law.  A court of competent jurisdiction shall have the authority to enter a judgment upon the award made pursuant to the arbitration.
  2. Non-Retaliation.  It is against Company policy for any Contractor to be subject to retaliation if he or she exercises his or her right to assert claims under this Arbitration Agreement.  If you believe that you have been retaliated against by anyone at the Company, you should immediately report this to the Chief Legal Officer at [email protected].
  3. Enforcement Of This Arbitration Agreement.  You have the right to consult with counsel of your choice concerning this Arbitration Agreement or any aspect of the arbitration proceeding.  Further, if there is a conflict between this Arbitration Agreement and any other Company contract, including, without limitation, any restrictive covenant agreement, regarding any issue related to arbitration, this Arbitration Agreement shall govern.  This Arbitration Agreement is the full and complete agreement about arbitration of disputes covered by this Arbitration Agreement.  Any contractual disclaimers the Company has in any handbooks, other agreements, or policies do not apply to this Arbitration Agreement.  This Arbitration Agreement will survive the termination of your relationship and work services and the expiration of any benefit, and it will continue to apply upon your transfer to any parent, subsidiary or affiliate of the Company or re-engagement by the Company if your relationship is ended but later renewed.  In the event any portion of this Arbitration Agreement is deemed unenforceable, the remainder of this Arbitration Agreement will be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law.
