COMMERCIAL WARRANTY
5. SMALL CLAIMS COURT OPTION: YOU MAY CHOOSE
TO LITIGATE ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN YOU AND
ANY OF US IN SMALL CLAIMS COURT, RATHER
THAN IN ARBITRATION, IF THE DISPUTE MEETS ALL
REQUIREMENTS TO BE HEARD IN SMALL CLAIMS
COURT.
6. Governing Law: For residents of the United States,
the procedures and eect of the arbitraon will be
governed by the Federal Arbitraon Act (9 U.S.C. § 1 et
seq.) rather than by state law concerning arbitraon. For
residents of Canada, the procedures and eect
of the arbitraon will be governed by the applicable
arbitraon law of the province in which you purchased
your unit. The law governing your substanve warranty
rights and other claims will be the law of the state
or province in which you purchased your unit. Any
court having jurisdicon may enter judgment on the
arbitraon award.
7. Rules of the Arbitraon: If the amount in controversy is
less than $250,000, the arbitraon will be decided by a
single arbitrator. If the amount in controversy is greater
than or equal to $250,000, the arbitraon will be
decided by a panel of three arbitrators. The arbitrator(s)
will be chosen pursuant to the rules of the administering
arbitraon organizaon. United States residents may
choose JAMS (1920 Main Street, Ste. 300, Irvine, CA
92614, www.jamsadr.com), or, subject to our approval,
any other arbitraon organizaon. In addion,
Canadian residents may choose the ADR Instute of
Canada (234 Eglinton Ave. East, Suite 405, Toronto,
Ontario, M4P 1K5, www.amic.org). These organizaons’
rules can be obtained by contacng the organizaon
or vising its website. If the chosen arbitraon
organizaon’s rules conict with this Arbitraon Clause,
the provisions of this Arbitraon Clause control. The
award of the arbitrator(s) shall be nal and binding on
all pares.
8. Locaon of the Arbitraon Hearing: Unless applicable
law provides otherwise, the arbitraon hearing for
United States residents will be conducted in the federal
judicial district in which you reside (in your hometown
area) or, for Canadian residents, in the province in which
you reside, and, if you choose, will be in-person.
9. Costs of the Arbitraon: Each party is responsible
for its own aorney, expert, and other costs and fees
unless applicable law requires otherwise. Each party
is also responsible for one-half of any costs and fees
charged by the arbitraon organizaon and arbitrator(s)
to administer the arbitraon to the maximum extent
permied by law or rule. Where permissible by law,
the prevailing party may be required to reimburse the
other party for the costs and fees of the arbitraon
organizaon and arbitrator(s) in whole or in part by
decision of the arbitrator(s) at the discreon of the
arbitrator(s).
10. Survival and Enforceability of this Arbitraon Clause:
This Arbitraon Clause shall survive the expiraon
or terminaon, or any transfer, of the warranty on
your unit. If any part of this Arbitraon Clause,
except waivers of class-acon rights, is found to be
unenforceable for any reason, the remainder of this
clause and the warranty shall remain enforceable. If,
in a case in which class-acon allegaons have been
made, the waiver of class-acon rights under this
warranty is found to be unenforceable with respect to
any part of the dispute, the parts of the dispute as to
which the waiver of class-acon rights have been found
unenforceable will be severed and will proceed in court
without reference or applicaon of this Arbitraon
Clause. Any remaining parts will proceed in arbitraon.
