13. DISPUTE RESOLUTION

Informal Negotiations:

To expedite and reduce the cost of any dispute, controversy, or claim related to these terms (each a "Claim"), the parties involved (each a "Party") will first attempt to resolve any such Claim informally for at least thirty (30) days before initiating any arbitration or court proceeding.

Binding Arbitration:

Any Claim arising out of or related to these terms shall be settled by arbitration in accordance with the Rules of the European Court of Arbitration, which is part of the European Centre of Arbitration having its seat in Strasbourg and which are in force at the time the request for arbitration is made and of which this agreement constitutes acceptance. The seat of arbitration shall be the United Kingdom. The language of the arbitration shall be English. The governing law of the agreement shall be the substantive law of the United Kingdom. The parties agree that any arbitration shall be limited to the Claim between the parties. To the full extent permitted by law, (a) no arbitration shall be joined with any other; (b) there is no right or authority for any Claim to be arbitrated on a class-action basis or to utilize class action procedures; and (c) there is no right or authority for any dispute to be brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public or any other persons.

Exceptions to Informal Negotiations and Arbitration:

The parties agree that the following disputes are not subject to the above provisions concerning informal negotiations and binding arbitration: (a) any Claim seeking to enforce or protect, or concerning the validity of, any of the intellectual property rights of a Party; (b) any Claim related to or arising from allegations of piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use; and (c) any claim for injunctive relief. If this provision is found to be illegal or unenforceable, then neither Party will elect to arbitrate any Claim falling within that portion of this provision found to be illegal or unenforceable and such Claim shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction within the courts listed for jurisdiction above, and you agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.

14. CORRECTIONS
