Arbitration Agreement and Class Action Waiver

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY – IT MAY SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT AND TO HAVE A JURY HEAR YOUR CLAIMS. IT CONTAINS PROCEDURES FOR MANDATORY BINDING ARBITRATION AND A CLASS ACTION WAIVER.

We Both Agree to Arbitrate.
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Nate Berkus and you agree to arbitrate all disputes and claims between us, except for Excluded Claims (collectively, "Covered Claims"). This Arbitration Agreement is intended to be broadly interpreted. It includes, but is not limited to:

claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of the relationship between us, whether based in contract, tort, fraud, misrepresentation or any other statutory or common-law legal theory;
claims that arose before this or any prior Agreement;
claims for mental or emotional distress or injury not arising out of physical bodily injury;
claims that are currently the subject of purported class action litigation in which you are not a member of a certified class; and
claims that may arise after the termination of this Agreement.

What is Arbitration.
Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court and seeks to resolve disputes more quickly. Instead of a judge or a jury, the case will be decided by a neutral arbitrator who has the power to award the same damages and relief that a court can. Any arbitration under this Agreement will take place on an individual basis; class arbitrations and class actions are not permitted. If any provision of this Arbitration Agreement is found unenforceable, the unenforceable provision shall be severed, and the remaining arbitration terms shall be enforced.

Excluded Claims.
This Arbitration Agreement shall not require arbitration of the following types of disputes ("Excluded Claims"):

statutory or common law claims related to intellectual property;
claims arising from bodily injury;
any claims that may be brought in a small claims court on an individual basis where the claim is properly within the jurisdiction of such court; or
a representative action brought on behalf of others under PAGA or other private attorneys general acts, to the extent the representative PAGA Waiver of such action is deemed unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction under applicable law not preempted by the FAA.

Arbitration Procedure.
The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this dispute resolution provision. Arbitration shall be initiated through JAMS. Any dispute relating to the Covered Claims will be referred to and finally determined by arbitration in accordance with the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures in front of one arbitrator. If there is a conflict between JAMS Rules and the rules set forth in these Terms, the rules set forth in this Terms will govern. The JAMS Rules and instructions for how to initiate an arbitration are available from JAMS at http://www.jamsadr.com or 1-800-352-5267. To initiate arbitration, you or Nate Berkus must do the following things:

Write a demand for Arbitration. The demand must include a description of the Claim and the amount of damages sought to be recovered. You can find a copy of a demand for Arbitration at www.jamsadr.com.
Send three copies of the demand for Arbitration, plus the appropriate filing fee to: JAMS to your local JAMS office or to JAMS, Two Embarcadero Center, Suite 1500, San Francisco, CA 94111
Send one copy of the demand for Arbitration to the other party.

Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the JAMS Rules. The arbitration hearing may be by telephone or in-person. Disputes may also be resolved by submission of documents and without in-person or telephonic hearings as provided by the Rules. To the extent necessary, the locale of the hearing will be the county of the consumer’s home address or, at the consumer’s election, such other locale as mutually agreed to by the parties, or as determined by the arbitrator. Each party will bear their own costs of arbitration unless the arbitrator directs that bearing such costs would be an undue burden and in that case, we will pay for your portion of the arbitration administrative costs (but not your attorneys’ fees). Arbitration under this agreement shall be held under Illinois law without regard to its conflict of laws provisions. The arbitration may award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court (including injunctive relief). Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

Authority of Arbitrator.
The arbitrator will decide the rights and liabilities, if any, of you and Nate Berkus, and the dispute will not be consolidated with any other matters or joined with any other cases or parties. The arbitrator shall have the authority to grant motions dispositive of all or part of any claim. The arbitrator shall have the authority to award monetary damages and to grant any non-monetary remedy or relief available to an individual under applicable law, the Arbitration Rules, and the Terms. The arbitrator shall issue a written award and statement of decision describing the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based, including the calculation of any damages awarded. The arbitrator has the same authority to award relief on an individual basis that a judge in a court of law would have. The award of the arbitrator is final and binding upon you and Nate Berkus.

Representative PAGA Waiver.
Notwithstanding any other provision of these Terms or the Agreement to Arbitrate, to the fullest extent permitted by law: (1) you and Nate Berkus expressly intend and agree not to assert a representative action on behalf of others under the Private Attorneys General Act of 2004 ("PAGA"), California Labor Code § 2698 et seq., in any court or in arbitration, and (2) for any claim brought on a private attorney general basis, including under the California PAGA, both you and Nate Berkus agree that any such dispute shall be resolved in arbitration on an individual basis only (i.e., to resolve whether you have personally been aggrieved or subject to any violations of law), and that such an action may not be used to resolve the claims or rights of other individuals in a single or collective proceeding (i.e., to resolve whether other individuals have been aggrieved or subject to any violations of law) (collectively, "representative PAGA Waiver"). Notwithstanding any other provision of these Terms, this Agreement to Arbitrate, or the Rules, disputes regarding the scope, applicability, enforceability, revocability or validity of this representative PAGA Waiver may be resolved only by a civil court of competent jurisdiction and not by an arbitrator. If any provision of this representative PAGA Waiver is found to be unenforceable or unlawful for any reason: (i) the unenforceable provision shall be severed from these Terms; (ii) severance of the unenforceable provision shall have no impact whatsoever on the Agreement to Arbitrate or the requirement that any remaining disputes be arbitrated on an individual basis pursuant to the Agreement to Arbitrate; and (iii) any such representative PAGA or other representative private attorneys general act claims must be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction and not in arbitration. To the extent that there are any disputes to be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction because a civil court of competent jurisdiction determines that the representative PAGA Waiver is unenforceable with respect to those disputes, the Parties agree that litigation of those disputes shall be stayed pending the outcome of any individual disputes in arbitration.

Waiver of Class Actions.
TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, YOU AND NATE BERKUS AGREE THAT EACH PARTY MAY BRING CLAIMS (WHETHER IN COURT OR IN ARBITRATION) AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT PARTICIPATE AS A PLAINTIFF, CLAIMANT, OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY CLASS, COLLECTIVE, CONSOLIDATED, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING.  THIS MEANS THAT YOU AND NATE BERKUS MAY NOT BRING A CLAIM ON BEHALF OF A CLASS OR GROUP AND MAY NOT BRING A CLAIM ON BEHALF OF ANY OTHER PERSON UNLESS DOING SO AS A PARENT, GUARDIAN, OR WARD OF A MINOR OR IN ANOTHER SIMILAR CAPACITY FOR AN INDIVIDUAL WHO CANNOT OTHERWISE BRING THEIR OWN INDIVIDUAL CLAIM.  THIS ALSO MEANS THAT YOU AND NATE BERKUS MAY NOT PARTICIPATE IN ANY CLASS, COLLECTIVE, CONSOLIDATED, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING BROUGHT BY ANY THIRD PARTY. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, YOU OR NATE BERKUS MAY PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS-WIDE SETTLEMENT.

Waiver of Jury Trial.
TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, YOU AND NATE BERKUS AGREE THAT EACH PARTY WAIVES THEIR CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO A TRIAL BY A JURY.

Choice of Law/Forum Selection.
These Terms have been made and shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Illinois as an agreement wholly performed therein without regard to their conflict of law provisions. For all litigation regarding Excluded Claims and any other controversy or claim for which arbitration is denied, the sole jurisdiction and venue for such litigation will be an appropriate federal or state court located in the County of Cook in the State of Illinois.
