12. DISPUTE RESOLUTION

12.1 General. In the interest of resolving disputes in the most expedient and cost effective manner, you and Franklin agree that any dispute arising out of or in any way related to these Terms, your use of the Site, your relationship with Franklin, or any goods offered or provided by Franklin, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, and regardless of whether a claim arising during or after the termination of these Terms, will be resolved by binding arbitration. Arbitration is less formal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, may allow for more limited discovery than in court, and can be subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THESE TERMS, YOU AND FRANKLIN ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY AND THAT THESE TERMS WILL BE SUBJECT TO AND GOVERNED BY THE FEDERAL ARBITRATION ACT.

12.2 Exceptions. Notwithstanding Section 12.1, nothing in these Terms will be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise limit the right of either party to: (a) bring an individual action in small claims court; (b) seek injunctive relief in aid of arbitration from a court of competent jurisdiction; or (c) file suit in a court of law to address an intellectual property infringement claim.

12.3 Arbitrator. Any arbitration between you and Franklin will be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act and the JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules & Procedures (collectively, “JAMS Rules”), and will be administered by JAMS. The JAMS Rules and filing forms are available online at www.jamsadr.com, or by calling JAMS at 1-800-352-5267. The arbitrator has exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, or enforceability of this binding arbitration agreement.

12.4 Notice; Process. A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send a written notice of the dispute to the other party by U.S. Mail (“Notice”). Franklin’s address for Notice is set forth below. The Notice must: (a) describe the nature and basis for the claim or dispute; and (b) set forth the specific relief sought (“Demand”). The parties will make good faith efforts to resolve the claim directly but, if the parties do not reach an agreement within thirty (30) days after the Notice is received, you or Franklin may commence an arbitration proceeding.

12.5 Fees. Each party shall pay its pro rata share of JAMS fees and expenses as set forth in the JAMS fee schedule, unless the parties agree on a different allocation of fees and expenses. If the action qualifies as a consumer arbitration, the JAMS Policy on Consumer Arbitrations shall apply.

12.6 Conduct of Arbitration. Any arbitration hearing will take place at a JAMS office in Boston, Massachusetts. The arbitrator must issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision and award, if any, are based. Each party agrees that such written decision, and information exchanged during arbitration, will be kept confidential to the extent necessary to enforce or permit limited judicial review of the award.

12.7 No Class Actions. YOU AND FRANKLIN AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and Franklin agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.

17.2 Severability. If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, the provision shall be stricken. All other terms will remain in full force and effect.

17.3 Waiver. No failure to exercise or delay in exercising any right, remedy, power, or privilege arising from these Terms will operate or be construed as a waiver thereof. Likewise, no single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power, or privilege hereunder will preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.
