Limitation of Liability

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, other than pursuant to a party’s indemnification obligations under Section 11 below, in no event shall either party: (i) be liable to the other party (regardless of the theory of liability) or any third party for any indirect, special, consequential, incidental or punitive damages (including without limitation for lost profits or revenues), even if such party was informed of the possibility of such damages, related to, in connection with or arising from this Agreement or the Products; or (ii) have total cumulative liability hereunder (regardless of the theory of liability) related to, in connection with or arising from this Agreement or the Products exceeding ten dollars ($10.00).  Any claim by you arising out of or relating to this Agreement must be brought within one (1) year after the occurrence of the event giving rise to such claim.  You expressly acknowledge and agree that the limitations of liability set forth in this Section 10 are an essential element of this Agreement, and in the absence of such limitations, the economic terms of this Agreement would have been substantially different than provided herein and/or the parties would not have entered into this Agreement.

Indemnification

You will, at your own expense, defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its parents, subsidiaries, affiliates and agents, and their respective officers, directors, shareholders, agents, representatives, contractors, employees and customers (each, an “Indemnitee”) from and against any and all loss, cost, expense, damage, claim, demand or liability (“Claim”), including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ and professional fees and costs, and the cost of settlement, compromise, judgment or verdict incurred by, or demanded of, an Indemnitee, that, directly or indirectly, arises out of, results from or occurs in connection with: (a) your negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct; (b) your breach of any of the provisions of this Agreement, the Privacy Policy or the Terms of Use; (c) your violation of any applicable law, rule or regulation; (d) infringement by you of any Intellectual Property Rights of any third party, (e) unlawful disclosure, use or misappropriation of a trade secret by you; or (e) your use of (or inability to use) the Products in any manner whatsoever.  We reserve the right to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you, in which event you will fully cooperate with us in asserting any available defenses, and promptly reimburse our reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ and professional fees) in connection with, relating to or arising from our defense in such matter.  No settlement, compromise or adjudication of any Claim to which indemnity applies hereunder shall be effective or permitted without the express and prior written consent of the Company.

Modifications of the Agreement

The Company may change any term of this Agreement on a prospective basis, and modify, add or discontinue any aspect, content or feature of the Software or Service, at its sole discretion.  Your continued use of the Software or Service after any such modifications or changes are posted will constitute your complete and unequivocal acceptance of any such modifications or changes to the Agreement.   You agree to periodically review this Agreement to ensure that you are in compliance with any ongoing changes or modifications that are made to the Agreement. To the extent that an arbitrator or court of applicable jurisdiction determines that applying any changes to these Terms would render this an illusory or unenforceable contract, such changes shall be applicable on a prospective basis only, with respect to events or circumstances occurring after the date of such changes, to the extent necessary to avoid these terms being deemed illusory or unenforceable.

Equitable Relief

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 15 below, you expressly agree that any use of the Products by you that violates or is inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement (in whole or in part) may: (i) cause Company irreparable damage, and (ii) equitable or injunctive relief (including, but not limited to, specific performance) may be necessary to protect our rights or interests.  Accordingly, you agree that Company may in any such instance, in its sole and absolute discretion and judgment, obtain any suitable injunctive or other equitable relief from any court of competent jurisdiction (without posting any bond) and that you will not assert any objection thereof (including, but not limited to, a claim that such relief is inappropriate or that the harm alleged by Company is not irreparable).

Sole Remedy

If you are dissatisfied for any reason with the Software or Service or the terms and conditions of this Agreement, your sole and exclusive remedy (whether at law or equity) shall be to discontinue your use of the Software and Service and terminate this Agreement as described herein.

This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the substantive and procedural laws of the State of California, without regard to the conflicts of law provisions thereof.  The parties agree that the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods and the Uniform Computer Information Transaction Act shall not apply to the Agreement.

Disputes.

By agreeing to these terms, you will not have the right to pursue a claim in court, or have a jury decide the claim and you will not have the right to bring or participate in any class action or similar proceeding in court or in arbitration. If Company’s efforts to informally resolve any complaints, disputes or disagreements fail, each party expressly agrees that any controversy, dispute or claim (“Litigation”) arising out of, relating to or in connection with, this Agreement or the Software or Service, or the alleged breach thereof, shall be settled by confidential binding arbitration in Los Angeles County, California, in accordance with the applicable rules of the American Arbitration Association, and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) shall be binding on the parties and may be entered in any court having jurisdiction worldwide.  Regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action by you arising out of or related to the Software or Service or this Agreement must be filed or arbitrated by you within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose or be forever barred.  In the event of any Litigation, both parties expressly and irrevocably consent to the exclusive venue and personal jurisdiction in Los Angeles County, California.  In the event of any Litigation arising from, related to or in connection with this Agreement or the Software or Service, the prevailing party thereof shall be entitled to recover its reasonable expenses, including without limitation attorneys’ fees and the costs of litigation and arbitration.  By downloading, installing and/or using the Software or Service, you agree to binding arbitration.  Company will make every reasonable effort to informally resolve any complaints, disputes or disagreements that you may have with Company.  The agreement to arbitrate in this Section 15(b) shall not prevent Company from seeking equitable relief or other redress in any court of competent jurisdiction as it relates to confidential information or as otherwise set forth in Section 13.

Severability.

If any provision of this Agreement is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable for any reason, then: (i) such provision will be enforced to the maximum extent permissible under the circumstances so as to effectuate the original intent of the parties with respect to such provisions; and (ii) the remaining provisions of this Agreement will be unaffected thereby and will continue to remain in full force and effect.
