10. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution

a. These Terms and the GP T&Cs and any action related thereto will be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, federal arbitration law, and the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict of laws provisions. Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Section 9 the exclusive jurisdiction for all Disputes (defined below) that you and Aloft are not required to arbitrate will be the state and federal courts located in the County of San Francisco, and you and Aloft each waive any objection to jurisdiction and venue in such courts.

b. Mandatory Arbitration of Disputes. We each agree that any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the GP T&Cs, or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity thereof or the use of the Aloft Service (collectively, “Disputes”) will be resolved solely by binding, individual arbitration and not in a class, representative or consolidated action or proceeding. You and Aloft agree that the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of these Terms and the GP T&Cs, and that you and Aloft are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action. This arbitration provision shall survive termination of these Terms and the GP T&Cs.

c. Exceptions. As limited exceptions to Section 9(b) above: (i) we both may seek to resolve a Dispute in small claims court if it qualifies; and (ii) we each retain the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief from a court to prevent (or enjoin) the infringement or misappropriation of our intellectual property rights.

d. Conducting Arbitration and Arbitration Rules. The arbitration will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules (the “AAA Rules”) then in effect, except as modified by these Terms. The AAA Rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879. A party who wishes to start arbitration must submit a written Demand for Arbitration to AAA and give notice to the other party as specified in the AAA Rules. The AAA provides a form Demand for Arbitration at www.adr.org.

e. Any arbitration hearings will take place in the county (or parish) where you live, unless we both agree to a different location. The parties agree that the arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to decide all issues relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability and scope of this arbitration agreement.

f. Arbitration Costs. Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA Rules, and we won’t seek to recover the administration and arbitrator fees we are responsible for paying, unless the arbitrator finds your Dispute frivolous. If we prevail in arbitration we’ll pay all of our attorneys’ fees and costs and won’t seek to recover them from you. If you prevail in arbitration you will be entitled to an award of attorneys’ fees and expenses to the extent provided under applicable law.

g. Injunctive and Declaratory Relief. Except as provided in Section 9(c) above, the arbitrator shall determine all issues of liability on the merits of any claim asserted by either party 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. To the extent that you or we prevail on a claim and seek public injunctive relief (that is, injunctive relief that has the primary purpose and effect of prohibiting unlawful acts that threaten future injury to the public), the entitlement to and extent of such relief must be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction and not in arbitration. The parties agree that litigation of any issues of public injunctive relief shall be stayed pending the outcome of the merits of any individual claims in arbitration.

h. Class Action Waiver. YOU AND ALOFT AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, if the parties’ dispute is resolved through arbitration, the arbitrator may not consolidate another person’s claims with your claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. If this specific provision is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Dispute Resolution section shall be null and void.

11. Waiver and Severability

a. No waiver by Aloft of any term or condition set forth in these Terms or the GP T&Cs will be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or condition or a waiver of any other term or condition. Any failure of Aloft to assert a right or provision under these Terms and/or the GP T&Cs does not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.

b. With the exception of any of the provisions in Section 9(h) of these Terms, if any provision of these Terms and/or the GP T&Cs is determined by an arbitrator, court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reach, such provision will be eliminated or limited to the minimum extent such that the remaining provisions of the Terms will continue in full force and effect.

12. Assignment

We may assign these Terms or the GP T&Cs, in whole or in part, at any time with or without notice to you. You may not assign, delegate or otherwise transfer these Terms or the GP T&Cs, or assign, transfer or sublicense any rights in the Aloft Service; any attempted transfer or assignment in violation of this provision will be null and void.
