The most recent version of the AAA Rules are available at https://www.adr.org/rules, and are hereby incorporated into and made a part of this Agreement. The arbitration shall be before a single, neutral arbitrator who is a licensed attorney with experience in California law or a former or retired state or federal court judge. If the parties cannot agree upon selection of an arbitrator, then the parties agree that AAA will appoint an arbitrator experienced in the enterprise software industry. Arbitration will be conducted in English. The location of arbitration will be Los Angeles County, California, unless another location is mutually agreed by the parties. EACH PARTY AGREES THAT THE ARBITRATION WILL BE CONDUCTED IN ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY ONLY AND NOT AS A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. Each party expressly waives its right to file a class action or seek relief on a class basis, and no arbitrator may consolidate more than one person or entity’s claims or otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding, unless otherwise mutually agreed by the parties. Arbitration may be initiated by any party by giving to the other party written notice requesting arbitration, which notice shall also include a statement of the claims asserted and the facts upon which the claims are based. The arbitrator does not have any power to alter, amend, modify or change any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement. Except as prohibited in this Agreement, the arbitrator will have the authority to award any remedy or relief otherwise available in a court of law. The arbitrator must provide a reasoned written opinion including detailed findings of fact and conclusions of law in support of any award. Any arbitrator's award will be binding on the parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. Any party may bring an action in any court of competent jurisdiction to compel arbitration under this Agreement or to enforce an arbitration award. Except as may be required by law or to enforce an arbitration award, neither party nor the arbitrator may disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration hereunder without the prior written consent of both parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may, without waiving any remedy under this Agreement, seek equitable or injunctive relief as permitted by this Agreement or under Applicable Laws from any court of competent jurisdiction. The parties further agree that the prevailing party in any action or proceeding to enforce any right or provisions under this Agreement, including any arbitration or court proceedings, will be entitled to recover its reasonable costs and attorneys’ fees.
