10. Governing Law. These terms are governed by and will be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without regard to any State of New York conflicts of laws or choice of law principals.
11. Dispute Resolution. For this section, a “claim” means any current or future claim, dispute or controversy relating to the Amex Collectible or anything related thereto, or these Terms. “We” and “us” means Amex and any corporate parents, subsidiaries, affiliates or related persons or entities. This Dispute Resolution section shall survive termination of these Terms. If any portion of this Dispute Resolution section, except as otherwise provided in the Limitations on Arbitration subsection below, is deemed invalid or unenforceable, it will not invalidate the remaining portions of this Dispute Resolution section. A.) Sending a Claim Notice. Before beginning a lawsuit or arbitration, you and we agree to send a written notice (a claim notice) to each party against whom a claim is asserted, in order to provide an opportunity to resolve the claim informally. Go to americanexpress.com/ claim for a sample claim notice. The claim notice must describe the claim and state the specific relief demanded. Notice to us must include your name and address and be sent to American Express ADR c/o CT Corporation System, 28 Liberty Street, New York, New York 10005. If the claim proceeds to arbitration, the amount of any relief demanded in a claim notice will not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator rules. B.) Arbitration. You or we may elect to resolve any claim by individual arbitration. Claims are decided by a neutral arbitrator. If arbitration is chosen by any party, neither you nor we will have the right to litigate that claim in court or have a jury trial on that claim. Further, you and we will not have the right to participate in a representative capacity or as a member of any class pertaining to any claim subject to arbitration. Arbitration procedures are generally simpler than the rules that apply in court, and discovery is more limited. The arbitrator's authority is limited to claims between you and us alone. Claims may not be joined or consolidated unless you and we agree in writing. An arbitration award and any judgment confirming it will apply only to the specific case and cannot be used in any other case except to enforce the award. The arbitrator’s decisions are as enforceable as any court order and are subject to very limited review by a court. Except as set forth below, the arbitrator’s decision will be final and binding. Other rights you or we would have in court may also not be available in arbitration. The party electing arbitration may select either JAMS (1-800-352-5267, jamsadr.com) or the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) (1-800-778-7879, adr.org). Claims will be resolved pursuant to this Arbitration provision and the rules of the selected organization, except where those rules conflict with this Agreement. If we choose the organization, you may select the other within 30 days after receiving notice of our selection. Contact JAMS or AAA to begin an arbitration or for other information. Claims also may be referred to another arbitration organization if you and we agree in writing or to an arbitrator appointed pursuant to section 5 of the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16 (“FAA”). We will not elect arbitration for any claim you file in small claims court, so long as the claim is individual and pending only in that court. You or we may otherwise elect to arbitrate any claim at any time unless it has been filed in court and trial has begun or final judgment has been entered. Either you or we may delay enforcing or not exercise rights under this Arbitration provision, including the right to arbitrate a claim, without waiving the right to exercise or enforce those rights. C.) Limitations on Arbitration. If either party elects to resolve a claim by arbitration, that claim will be arbitrated on an individual basis. There will be no right or authority for any claim to be arbitrated on a class action basis or on bases involving claims brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public, other Card Members or other persons similarly situated. Notwithstanding any other provision and without waiving the right to appeal such decision, if any portion of these Limitations on Arbitration is deemed invalid or unenforceable, then the entire Arbitration provision (other than this sentence) will not apply. D.) Arbitration Procedures. This arbitration provision is governed by the FAA. The arbitrator will apply applicable substantive law, statutes of limitations and privileges. The arbitrator will not apply any federal or state rules of civil procedure or evidence in matters relating to evidence or discovery. Subject to the Limitations on Arbitration, the arbitrator may otherwise award any relief available in court. You and we agree that the arbitration will be confidential. You and we agree that you and we will not disclose the contact of the arbitration proceeding or its outcome to anyone, but you or we may notify any government authority of the claim as permitted or required by law. If your claim is for $10,000 or less, you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents, through a telephonic hearing or by an in-person hearing. At any party’s request, the arbitrator will provide a brief written explanation of the award. The arbitrator’s award will be final and binding, subject to each party's right to appeal as stated in this section and/or to challenge or appeal an arbitration award pursuant to the FAA. To initiate an appeal, a party must notify the arbitration organization and all parties in writing within 35 days after the arbitrator's award is issued. The arbitration organization will appoint a three-arbitrator panel to decide anew, by majority vote based on written submissions, any aspect of the decision objected to. The appeal will otherwise proceed pursuant to the arbitration organization's appellate rules. Judgment upon any award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. At your election, arbitration hearings will take place in the federal judicial district of your residence. E.) Arbitration Fees and Costs. You will be responsible for paying your share of any arbitration fees (including filing, administrative, hearing or other fees), but only up to the amount of the filing fees you would have incurred if you had brought a claim in court. We will be responsible for any additional arbitration fees. At your written request, we will consider in good faith making a temporary advance of your share of any arbitration fees, or paying for the reasonable fees of an expert appointed by the arbitrator for good cause. If the arbitrator rules in your favor for an amount greater than any offer we made before the final hearing in arbitration, the arbitrator’s award will include: (1) any money to which you are entitled, but in no case less than $5,000; and (2) any reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and expert and other witness fees.
12. Miscellaneous. Without limiting any remedies available to Amex, you acknowledge that a breach by you of these Terms may result in material irreparable injury to Amex for which there is no adequate remedy at law, that it will not be possible to precisely measure damages for such injuries and that, in the event of such a breach or threat thereof, Amex will be entitled, without the requirement to post bond or other security, to obtain a temporary restraining order and/or injunction restraining you from engaging in activities prohibited by these Terms or such other relief as may be required to specifically enforce any of these Terms. These Terms represent the entire agreement between you and Amex with respect to the Amex Collectible, and these Terms supersede all prior understandings and/or communications, both oral and written, with respect to the Amex Collectible. Amex’s delay or failure to enforce any portion of these Terms will not be deemed a waiver of that portion of these Terms. Should any portion of these Terms be rendered void or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the remaining provisions of these Terms will remain in full force and effect.
