Except as provided in the preceding sentence, this “Dispute Resolution” section will survive any termination of this Agreement.

Arbitration Rules and Governing Law.
The arbitration will be administered by the Australian Law Society (“ALS”) in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (the “ALS Rules”) then in effect, except as modified by this “Dispute Resolution” section.
Arbitration Process. A party who desires to initiate arbitration must provide the other party with a written Demand for Arbitration. The Arbitrator will be either a retired judge or an attorney licensed to practice law in Australia and will be selected by the parties from the ALS’s roster of consumer dispute arbitrators. If the parties are unable to agree upon an arbitrator within seven (7) days of delivery of the Demand for Arbitration, then the ALS will appoint the arbitrator in accordance with their Rules.

Arbitration Location and Procedure.
Unless you and Company otherwise agree, the arbitration will be conducted in the county where you reside. If your claim does not exceed $10,000, then the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents you and Company submit to the arbitrator, unless you request a hearing or the arbitrator determines that a hearing is necessary. If your claim exceeds $10,000, your right to a hearing will be determined by the ALS Rules. Subject to the ALS Rules, the arbitrator will have the discretion to direct a reasonable exchange of information by the parties, consistent with the expedited nature of the arbitration.

Arbitrator’s Decision.
The arbitrator will render an award within the time frame specified in the ALS Rules. The arbitrator’s decision will include the essential findings and conclusions upon which the arbitrator based the award. Judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The arbitrator’s award damages must be consistent with the terms of the “Limitation of Liability” section above as to the types and the amounts of damages for which a party may be held liable. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favour of the claimant and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by the claimant’s individual claim. If you prevail in arbitration you will be entitled to an award of attorneys’ fees and expenses, to the extent provided under applicable law. Company will not seek, and hereby waives all rights it may have under applicable law to recover, attorneys’ fees and expenses if it prevails in arbitration.

Fees.
Your responsibility to pay any filing, administrative and arbitrator fees will be solely as set forth in the ALS Rules. However, if your claim for damages does not exceed $50,000, Company will pay all such fees unless the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in your Demand for Arbitration was frivolous or was brought for an improper purpose.

GENERAL

If any provision of the Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be struck and the remaining provisions shall be enforced to the fullest extent under law.
