The term “dispute” means any dispute, action or other controversy between you and Owner concerning this Agreement, whether in contract, warranty, tort, statute, regulation, ordinance or any other legal or equitable basis. “Dispute” will be given the broadest possible meaning allowable under law. 

 

1. Notice of Dispute.

The Parties shall each pay fifty percent (50%) of the cost of the Mediation.  The place of Mediation shall be Nashville, Tennessee. 

 

1. Binding Arbitration. If the Parties don’t resolve any dispute by informal negotiation or mediation, any other effort to resolve the dispute will be conducted exclusively by binding arbitration as described in this Section. You are giving up the right to litigate (or participate in as a party or class member) all disputes in court before a judge or jury. The dispute shall be settled by binding arbitration in accordance with the commercial arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association. The arbitration will be conducted in Nashville, Tennessee, and judgment on the arbitration award may be entered into any court of competent jurisdiction. The award of the arbitrator will be final and binding upon the Parties without appeal or review except as permitted by Tennessee law. Either Party may seek any interim or preliminary injunctive relief from any court of competent jurisdiction, as necessary to protect the Party’s rights or property pending the completion of arbitration. Any and all legal, accounting, and other costs, fees, and expenses incurred by the prevailing Party shall be borne by the non-prevailing Party.

 

1. Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individual Actions. The Parties agree that either may bring claims against the other only on an individual basis and not as part of any purported class or representative action or proceeding unless both Parties agree otherwise. The arbitrator may not consolidate or join more than one person’s or Party’s claims and may not preside over any form of a consolidated, representative or class proceeding. Also, the arbitrator may award relief (including monetary, injunctive and declaratory relief) only in favor of the individual Party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief necessitated by that Party’s claim(s). Any relief awarded cannot affect other Owner users. 

 

1. Miscellaneous.

1. Law, Jurisdiction and Venue. All questions concerning the construction, validity, and interpretation of this Agreement and the performance of the obligations imposed by this Agreement shall be governed by the internal law, not the law of conflicts, of the State of Tennessee.  To the full extent permitted by law, any circuit court in Davidson County and Tennessee shall have exclusive jurisdiction over any matter relating to or arising from this Agreement and the parties' rights and obligations under this Agreement.
