This limitation shall apply regardless of whether the damages arise out of breach of contract, tort, or any other legal theory or form of action.

Exclusions and Limitations.

Those who access or use the Site from other jurisdictions do so at their own volition and are responsible for compliance with local law. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties or the limitation or exclusion of liability for incidental or consequential damages. Accordingly, in certain jurisdictions, some of the above limitations of liability may not apply to you; all other provisions of these Terms and Conditions remain in full force and effect.

Indemnification.

You agree to indemnify, hold harmless and, upon request, defend Company and its respective directors, officers, employees, agents, and members from and against all claims and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, arising out of or relating to your browsing or use of the this Site, content you transmit to us, your violation of any rights of another, or your breach of these Terms and Conditions.

Waiver of Class Action Rights.

By entering into these Terms and Conditions, you hereby irrevocably waive any rights you may have to join claims with those of others in the form of a class action or any similar procedural device. Any claims which may arise as a result of or relate to this Terms and Conditions, or use your use of this Site, must be asserted individually through binding arbitration, as set forth in these Terms and Conditions.

Governing Law and Arbitration.

These Terms and Conditions shall be governed by the laws of the State of Maryland, without respect to its conflict of laws principles. Any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of, relating to or in connection with these Terms and Conditions or this Site, shall be finally resolved by arbitration before the American Arbitration Association in accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules and before a single arbitrator. Ultimately, the selected arbitrator must have expertise in the subject matter of the dispute.

The expenses of the arbitration charged by the arbitrator shall be borne by the prevailing party, as ordered by the arbitrator, or otherwise as appropriately allocated between the parties to the arbitration by the arbitrator in his or her discretion. However, in every other regard each party shall pay for and bear its own costs and legal fees. The arbitration shall be completed within one hundred twenty (120) days of giving notice and filing of a demand to arbitrate with the American Arbitration Association (whichever shall first occur). The arbitration shall take place in Los Angeles, California. The testimony, evidence, ruling and all documentation regarding any arbitration shall be considered confidential information, and neither party may use, disclose, or divulge any such information unless otherwise required by law.

Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered and enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction.

If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, you hereby waive your right to a jury trial.

Attorneys’ Fees.

If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, the prevailing party shall be entitled to an award of costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by it in connection with the prosecution or defense of such action.
