Dispute Resolution and Arbitration Agreement

The parties acknowledge that any statutory or common law claims related to intellectual property may require forms of equitable relief that are best administered by courts; accordingly, the parties agree that except for statutory or common law claims related to intellectual property and disputes that qualify for small claims court (as set forth below), any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any aspect of the relationship between us, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory (“Dispute”), will be resolved in binding individual arbitration if it cannot be resolved informally consistent with the mandatory procedures set forth below. Dispute shall have the broadest possible meaning and include claims that arose before this or any prior Agreement and claims that might arise after the termination of this Agreement. This Dispute Resolution and Arbitration Agreement shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”).

A party shall retain the right to have a Dispute heard in small claims court (at any time prior to the appointment of an arbitrator) assuming the claim(s) falls within the jurisdictional limits of small claims court and the matter remains in that court and is not removed or appealed to a court of general jurisdiction. This Dispute Resolution and Arbitration Agreement does not preclude you from bringing issues to the attention of federal, state, or local agencies, and, if the law allows, they can seek relief against us for you.

    (a) Mandatory Informal Dispute Resolution Process.

Should a Dispute arise between us that cannot be resolved by customer service, Minpetpet is committed to seeking to resolve it with you informally. You and we agree to engage in good faith for a 60-day period before either party may initiate any formal proceeding with the goal of resolving any Dispute. You or we agree to commence this informal dispute resolution process by sending the other party a written description of the Dispute including the nature and basis of the claim(s) and the nature and basis of the relief sought, including a calculation for that requested relief. In addition, if applicable, you and we agree to provide information sufficient to identify any relevant transaction(s). This information shall collectively be set forth in a written notice that is personally signed by you or us (“Notice”). Should you submit a Notice, you shall send it to Minpetpet at Minpetpet LLC via e-mail to legal@minpetpet.com. Should we submit a Notice, we shall send it to the mailing address and/or e-mail address we have on file for you. As the parties engage in an effort to resolve the Dispute, Minpetpet might request a telephone conference to facilitate a resolution. You agree that if Minpetpet requests a telephone conference, you will personally participate, along with your counsel if you are represented. If the parties are unable to resolve the Dispute within this 60-day period after a fully completed Notice is received by you or us (absent agreement to extend this time period), you or we may commence a formal proceeding consistent with this Agreement. The statute of limitations shall be tolled during this informal dispute resolution process. Compliance with this informal dispute resolution process is mandatory and a condition precedent to initiating arbitration or a formal proceeding consistent with this Agreement.

A court of competent jurisdiction shall have authority to enjoin the filing or prosecution of a Dispute in arbitration based on a failure to comply with this mandatory informal dispute resolution process. A party may elect to raise non-compliance with this process in arbitration.

      (b) Arbitration Process.

To initiate arbitration, you or we shall follow the applicable rules of the arbitration administrator. You will also provide a written certification of compliance with the informal dispute resolution process referenced above. You and we agree that the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) shall be the administrator of any arbitration in accordance with its Consumer Arbitration Rules (“AAA Rules”) as modified by this Agreement. Should AAA be unable or unwilling to administer the arbitration consistent with this Agreement, then you and we agree that National Arbitration and Mediation (“NAM”) shall be the administrator of any arbitration in accordance with its applicable consumer rules as modified by this Agreement. Should NAM be unable or unwilling to administer the arbitration consistent with this Agreement, then you and we agree to select a mutually-agreeable arbitration administrator that will administer the arbitration consistent with this Agreement. If you and we are unable to agree, then you and we will jointly petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint an arbitration administrator that will administer the arbitration consistent with this Agreement.

All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, except for those issues specifically referenced in this Dispute Resolution and Arbitration Agreement and issues relating to the scope, application, and enforceability of this Dispute Resolution and Arbitration Agreement, which are for a court of competent jurisdiction to decide. The arbitrator shall apply the terms of this Agreement just as a court would.

Unless the parties agree otherwise, the arbitration shall be presided over by a single arbitrator and shall take place in the county in which you reside or in a location that is reasonably convenient for you. For claims of $14,000 or less, you can choose whether you would like arbitration carried out based only on documents submitted to the arbitrator, or by a hearing in person or by phone, however, we reserve the right to request a hearing (which shall be determined by the arbitrator).

The arbitrator’s award shall be binding only between the parties to the arbitration proceeding. It shall have no preclusive effect in any other arbitration or other proceeding involving a different party, provided that the arbitrator may consider rulings in other arbitrations involving different parties.

    (c) Individual Relief; Class Action Waiver; Jury Trial Waiver.

YOU AND WE AGREE THAT THE ARBITRATOR MAY ONLY AWARD RELIEF (INCLUDING DECLARATORY AND INJUNCTIVE RELIEF) IN FAVOR OF THE INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING RELIEF AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE RELIEF WARRANTED BY THAT PARTY’S INDIVIDUAL CLAIM. THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT AWARD RELIEF FOR OR AGAINST ANYONE THAT IS NOT A PARTY TO THE PROCEEDING. THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS AND MAY NOT PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF CLASS, COLLECTIVE, JOINT, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. ANY ARBITRATION SHALL BE CONDUCTED AND DECIDED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS; CLASS ARBITRATION IS EXPRESSLY PROHIBITED. YOU AND WE AGREE THAT, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THERE SHALL BE NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED ON A CLASS, COLLECTIVE, JOINT, OR CONSOLIDATED BASIS OR IN A REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY ON BEHALF OF THE GENERAL PUBLIC (SUCH AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL OR IN CONNECTION WITH A REQUEST FOR PUBLIC INJUNCTIVE RELIEF). THIS WAIVER OF CLASS ACTIONS AND COLLECTIVE RELIEF IS AN ESSENTIAL PART OF THE DISPUTE RESOLUTION AND ARBITRATION AGREEMENT; IF IT IS DEEMED INVALID OR UNENFORCEABLE WITH RESPECT TO A PARTICULAR CLAIM OR REQUEST FOR RELIEF (SUCH AS A REQUEST FOR PUBLIC INJUNCTIVE RELIEF), AND ALL APPEALS OF THAT DECISION ARE EXHAUSTED OR IT IS OTHERWISE FINAL, THEN THAT CLAIM OR REQUEST FOR RELIEF SHALL PROCEED IN A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION BUT BE STAYED PENDING ARBITRATION OF ALL REMAINING CLAIMS AND REQUESTS FOR RELIEF.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE PARTIES WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL.

    (d) Additional Procedures Applicable to Multiple Consumer Case Filings (Mass Arbitration).

If 25 or more claimants pursue, or intend to pursue, demands for arbitration against Minpetpet raising similar claims and counsel for the claimants are the same or coordinated (“Mass Arbitrations”), then the following additional procedures shall apply. You agree that if you or your counsel elect to pursue your Dispute as part of Mass Arbitrations, then the adjudication of your Dispute might be delayed. The Mass Arbitrations will be subject to a staged bellwether process and the AAA Multiple Consumer Case Filing Fee Schedule shall apply (or the mass arbitration fee schedule of the designated arbitration body, as set forth above). Counsel for the claimants and counsel for Minpetpet shall each select 20 cases per side (40 total) to be filed in, and to proceed in, arbitration in bellwether proceedings to be adjudicated individually, with each case assigned to a separate arbitrator. In the meantime, no other demands for arbitration may be filed, processed, or deemed filed with AAA (or the designated arbitration body, as set forth above). Should the parties be unable to resolve the remaining demands for arbitration after the adjudication or resolution of the first set of bellwether proceedings, each side shall select 20 additional cases per side (40 total) to be filed in, and to proceed in, arbitration in bellwether proceedings to be adjudicated individually, with each case assigned to a separate arbitrator. In the meantime, no other demands for arbitration may be filed, processed, or deemed filed with AAA (or the designated arbitration body, as set forth above). This staged process shall continue until the parties adjudicate or resolve all of the Mass Arbitrations. No fees shall be assessed for a given case until that case is selected for a bellwether proceeding. If these additional procedures apply to your demand for arbitration, any statutes of limitations applicable to your claims shall be tolled from the time that the first cases are selected for the first set of bellwether proceedings until your demand for arbitration is selected for a bellwether proceeding, withdrawn, or otherwise resolved. A court will have the authority to enforce these Additional Procedures Applicable to Multiple Consumer Case Filings (Mass Arbitration) and, if necessary, to enjoin the filing or prosecution of arbitrations and/or the assessment of fees.

    (e) Survival and Modifications.

This agreement to arbitrate shall survive termination of this Agreement. Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary, modifications to this Dispute Resolution and Arbitration Agreement shall not apply in connection with any Dispute for which notice has already been given to you or Minpetpet.
