19. Dispute Resolution

(a) Generally. In the interest of resolving disputes between you and ZenGile in the most expedient and cost effective manner, and except as described in Section 19(b), you and ZenGile agree that every dispute arising in connection with these Terms will be resolved by binding arbitration. Arbitration is less formal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, may allow for more limited discovery than in court, and can be subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a courtcan award. This agreement to arbitrate disputes includes all claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of these Terms, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, and regardless of whether a claim arises during or after the termination of these Terms. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THESE TERMS, YOU AND ZenGile ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.

(b) Exceptions. Despite the provisions of Section 19(a) above, nothing in this Agreement will be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise limit the right of either party to: (a) bring an individual action in small claims court; (b) pursue an enforcement action through the applicable federal, state, or local agency if that action is available; (c) seek injunctive relief in a court of law in aid of arbitration; or (d) to file suit in a court of law to address an intellectual property infringement claim.

(c) Arbitrator. Any arbitration between you and ZenGile will be settled under the Federal Arbitration Act and administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules (collectively, “AAA Rules”) as modified by these Terms. The AAA Rules and filing forms are available online at www.adr.org, by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879, or by contacting ZenGile. The arbitrator has exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, or enforceability of this binding arbitration agreement.

(d) Notice of Arbitration; Process. A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send a written notice of the dispute to the other party by certified U.S. Mail or by Federal Express (signature required) or, only if that other party has not provided a current physical address, then by electronic mail (“Notice of Arbitration”). ZenGile 's address for Notice is: EasySoft INC, 251 Little Falls Drive, Wilmington, New Castle County, Delaware 19808. The Notice of Arbitration must: (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) set forth the specific relief sought (“Demand”). The parties will make good faith efforts to resolve the claim directly, but if the parties do not reach an agreement to do so within 30 days after the Notice of Arbitration is received, you or ZenGile may commence an arbitration proceeding. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by you or ZenGile must not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator makes a final decision and award, if any. If the dispute is finally resolved through arbitration in your favor, ZenGile will pay you the highest of the following: (i) the amount awarded by the arbitrator, if any; (ii) the last written settlement amount offered by ZenGile in settlement of the dispute prior to the arbitrator’s award; or (iii) $1,000.

(e) Fees. If you commence arbitration in accordance with these Terms, ZenGile will reimburse you for your payment of the filing fee, unless your claim is for more than $10, 000, in w hi c h c a se t h e p a y m e n t o f an y f ees w i ll b e d ec i d e d b y t h e AAA R u l es . A n y a r bi t r a t i o nh e a r in g w i llt ak e pl a ce a t a l oc a t i o n t o b e a g ree d u p o nin L os A n g e l es, C a l i f or nia, b u t i f t h ec l aimi s f or$ 10,000 or less, you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted: (a) solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator; (b) through a non-appearance based telephone hearing; or (c) by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules in the county (or parish) of your billing address. If the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in the Demand is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. In that case, you agree to reimburse ZenGile for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the AAA Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator must issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision and award, if any, are based. The arbitrator may make rulings and resolve disputes as to the payment and reimbursement of fees or expenses at any time during the proceeding and upon request from either party made within 14 days of the arbitrator’s ruling on the merits.

(f) No Class Actions. YOU AND ZenGile AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBERIN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and ZenGile agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.

(g) Modifications to this Arbitration Provision. If ZenGile makes any future change to this arbitration provision, other than a change to ZenGile 's address for Notice of Arbitration, you may reject the change by sending us written notice within 30 days of the change to ZenGile’s address for Notice of Arbitration, in which case this arbitration provision, as in effect immediately prior to the changes you rejected will survive.

(h) Enforceability. If Section 19(f) is found to be unenforceable or if the entirety of this Section 19 is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Section 19 will be null and void and, in that case, the parties agree that the exclusive jurisdiction and venue described in Section 19(e) will govern any action arising out of or related to these Terms.

20. Waiver

The waiver by either party of any breach of any provision of this Agreement does not waive any other breach. The failure of any party to insist on strict performance of any covenant or obligation in accordance with this Agreement will not be a waiver of such party’s right to demand strict compliance in the future, nor will the same be construed as a novation of this Agreement.

21. Severability

If any part of this Agreement is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, unenforceable, or invalid, the remaining portions of this Agreement will remain in full force and effect. If any material limitation or restriction on the use of the Service under this Agreement is found to be illegal, unenforceable, or invalid, Subscriber’s right to use the Service will immediately terminate.

22. Entire

Agreement This Agreement is the final and complete expression of the agreement between these parties regarding Subscriber’s use of the Service. This Agreement supersedes, and the terms of this Agreement govern, all previous oral and written communications regarding these matters, all of which are merged into this Agreement. No employee, agent, or other representative of ZenGile has any authority to bind ZenGile with respect to any statement, representation, warranty, or other expression unless the same is specifically set forth in this Agreement. No usage of trade or other regular practice or method of dealing between the parties will be used to modify, interpret, supplement, or alter the terms of this Agreement. This Agreement may be changed only by a written agreement signed by an authorized agent of the party against whom enforcement is sought. ZenGile will not be bound by, and specifically objects to, any term, condition, or other provision that is different from or in addition to this Agreement (whether or not it would materially alter this Agreement) that is proffered by Subscriber in any receipt, acceptance, confirmation, correspondence, or otherwise, unless ZenGile specifically agrees to such provision in writing and signed by an authorized agent of ZenGile.
