If the Dispute cannot be resolved through informal negotiation within 30 days, it shall be finally resolved by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Commercial Arbitration Rules, except that you may bring small-claims-court claims in a court of competent jurisdiction so long as they proceed on an individual basis. The arbitration shall take place in Delaware, United States, in the English language, and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. You and we agree that each may bring claims against the other only in an individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class, consolidated, or representative proceeding.

You hereby consent to the personal jurisdiction of such courts and waive any objection based on improper venue or forum non conveniens.
