ARBITRATION AND LITIGATION. Arbitration Disclosure: By applying for a Card, to the extent permitted by law you agree that if a dispute of any kind arises out of or relates to this Contract or your application for a Card, either you or Bank can choose to have that dispute resolved by binding arbitration as set forth in the Arbitration Provision below administered by the arbitration administrator the American Arbitration Association. If arbitration is chosen, it will be conducted pursuant to then applicable Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplemental Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes as applicable of the American Arbitration Association. The foregoing notwithstanding, the Bank shall not initiate an arbitration to collect a consumer debt, but reserves the right to arbitrate all other disputes with its consumer customers. PLEASE READ THIS PROVISION OF THE CONTRACT CAREFULLY. YOU AGREE THAT ANY DISPUTE MAY BE RESOLVED BY BINDING ARBITRATION. ARBITRATION REPLACES THE RIGHT TO GO TO COURT, INCLUDING THE RIGHT TO A JURY AND THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION OR SIMILAR PROCEEDING. IN ARBITRATION, AN ARBITRATOR INSTEAD OF A JUDGE OR JURY RESOLVES A DISPUTE. ARBITRATION PROCEDURES ARE SIMPLER AND MORE LIMITED THAN COURT PROCEDURES. YOU ALSO AGREE ANY ARBITRATION WILL BE LIMITED TO THE DISPUTE BETWEEN YOU AND US AND WILL NOT BE PART OF A CLASS- WIDE OR CONSOLIDATED ARBITRATION PROCEEDING. IF ARBITRATION IS CHOSEN BY ANY PARTY WITH RESPECT TO ANY CLAIM, DISPUTE OR CONTROVERSY, NEITHER YOU NOR BANK WILL HAVE THE RIGHT TO LITIGATE THAT CLAIM IN COURT, OR HAVE A JURY TRIAL ON THAT CLAIM, OR TO ENGAGE IN PREARBITRATION DISCOVERY EXCEPT AS PROVIDED FOR IN THE APPLICABLE ARBITRATION RULES OR THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION. FURTHER, YOU WILL NOT HAVE THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE AS A REPRESENTATIVE OR MEMBER OF ANY CLASS OR CLAIMANTS WITH RESPECT TO ANY CLAIM SUBJECT TO ARBITRATION UNDER THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION. THE ARBITRATOR’S DECISION WILL GENERALLY BE FINAL AND BINDING. OTHER RIGHTS THAT YOU WOULD HAVE IF YOU WENT TO COURT MAY ALSO NOT BE AVAILABLE IN ARBITRATION. IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOU CAREFULLY READ THE ENTIRE ARBITRATION PROVISION.
ARBITRATION AND LITIGATION. Any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or in respect to this Agreement (or its validity, interpretation or enforcement) or the subject matter hereof must be submitted to and settled by arbitration conducted before a single arbitrator or, at the election of the Company or the Executive, a panel of arbitrators (chosen from a list of arbitrators provided by the American Arbitration Association with each party hereto taking alternate strikes and the remaining arbitrator or arbitrators, as applicable, hearing the dispute). By agreeing to arbitrate all disputes related to this Agreement, the Company and the Executive acknowledge, among other things, that they are waiving the right to have the dispute heard by a court of law or equity and the right to a jury trial. The arbitration will be conducted in Xxxxx County, Nevada, in accordance with the then current rules of the American Arbitration Association or its successor. The arbitration of such issues, including the determination of any amount of damages suffered, will be final and binding upon the parties to the maximum extent permitted by law. The decision of the arbitrator or the panel, as applicable, shall be in writing and signed by the arbitrator. A copy of the arbitrator’s or the panel’s decision, as applicable, will be provided to each party. The arbitrator or panel, as applicable, in such action will not be authorized to change or modify any provision of this Agreement. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator or the panel, as applicable, may be entered by any court having jurisdiction thereof. The parties consent to the jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of Nevada and of the U.S. District Court for the District of Nevada for all purposes in connection with arbitration, including the entry of judgment of any award. The Company shall advance the arbitrator’s or the panel’s fees, as applicable, subject to the provisions of Section 2(a), however, the arbitrator or the panel, as applicable, will award reasonable legal fees and expenses (including arbitration costs) to the prevailing party upon application therefor. The non-prevailing party may thus incur greater expenses under arbitration than under traditional court litigation. Except as may be necessary to enter judgment upon the award or to the extent required by applicable law, all claims, defenses and proceedings (including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the existence of the controversy and the fact th...
