TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW: (A) MDC WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, UNDER ANY CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHER THEORY, INCLUDING DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, USE OR DATA, LOSS OF OTHER INTANGIBLES, LOSS OF SECURITY OF MATERIALS (INCLUDING UNAUTHORIZED INTERCEPTION BY THIRD PARTIES OF ANY MATERIALS), EVEN IF ADVISED IN ADVANCE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES OR LOSSES; (B) WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, MDC WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND RESULTING FROM YOUR USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE SITE OR FROM ANY SERVICES OR THIRD PARTY MATERIALS, INCLUDING FROM ANY VIRUS THAT MAY BE TRANSMITTED IN CONNECTION THEREWITH; (C) YOUR SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY FOR DISSATISFACTION WITH THE SITE OR ANY SERVICES OR THIRD PARTY MATERIALS IS TO STOP USING THE SITE AND SEVICES; AND (D) THE MAXIMUM AGGREGATE LIABILITY OF MDC FOR ALL DAMAGES, LOSSES, AND CAUSES OF ACTION, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE) OR OTHERWISE, SHALL BE THE GREATER OF (I) THE TOTAL AMOUNT, IF ANY, PAID BY YOU TO MDC TO USE THE SITE AND ANY SERVICES; AND (II) FIFTY U.S. DOLLARS ($50). ALL LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY OF ANY KIND (INCLUDING IN THIS SECTION AND ELSEWHERE IN THE TERMS AND THIS AGREEMENT) ARE MADE FOR THE BENEFIT OF BOTH MDC AND THE AFFILIATED ENTITIES, AND THEIR RESPECTIVE SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. IF YOU LIVE IN A JURISDICTION THAT DOES NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF LIABILITY FOR CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES, THE ABOVE LIMITATION DOES NOT APPLY TO YOU. TO THE EXTENT THAT ONE OR ANY ASPECT OF MDC’S LIMITATIONS SET OUT ABOVE DOES NOT APPLY, ALL REMAINING ASPECTS SURVIVE.

Each provision of these Terms of Use that provides for a limitation of liability, disclaimer of warranties, or exclusion of damages is intended to and does allocate the risks between the parties under these Terms of Use. This allocation is an essential element of the basis of the bargain between MDC and you. The limitations in this Section will apply even if any limited remedy fails of its essential purpose.

25. Arbitration

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT REQUIRES YOU TO AGREE TO RESOLVE DISPUTES BETWEEN US THROUGH BINDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION.

This Arbitration Section applies only to users in the United States.

Dispute Resolution and Arbitration

You and MDC agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy between you and us arising in connection with or relating in any way to your relationship with MDC as a user of the Site or the Services (whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, and whether the claims arise during or after the termination of this arbitration Section) will be determined by mandatory binding individual (not class) arbitration. You and MDC further agree that the arbitrator shall have the exclusive power to rule on the arbitrator’s own jurisdiction, including any objections with respect to the existence, scope, or validity of the arbitration section or to the arbitrability of any claim or counterclaim. Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. THERE IS NO JUDGE OR JURY IN ARBITRATION, AND COURT REVIEW OF AN ARBITRATION AWARD IS LIMITED. There may be more limited discovery than in court. The arbitrator must follow the Terms of Use and can award the same damages and relief as a court (including attorney fees), except that the arbitrator may not award any relief, including declaratory or injunctive relief, benefiting anyone but the parties to the arbitration. This arbitration Section will survive termination of the Agreement.

Exceptions

Notwithstanding the foregoing, you and MDC both agree that nothing in this arbitration Section will be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise limit either of our rights, at any time, to (a) bring an individual action in a U.S. small claims court; or (b) bring an individual action seeking only temporary or preliminary individualized injunctive relief in a court of law, pending a final ruling from the arbitrator. In addition, this arbitration Section doesn’t stop you or us from bringing issues to the attention of federal, state, or local agencies. Such agencies can, if the law allows, seek relief against us on your behalf (or vice versa).

No Class or Representative Proceedings: Class Action Waiver

YOU AND MDC AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. Unless both you and MDC mutually agree, no arbitrator or judge may consolidate more than one person’s claims or otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. The arbitrator may award injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party’s individual claim. If a court decides that applicable law precludes enforcement of any of this Section’s limitations as to a particular claim for relief, then that claim (and only that claim) must be severed from the arbitration and may be brought in court.

Arbitration Rules

Either you or MDC may start arbitration proceedings. Any arbitration between you and MDC will take place under the Consumer Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) then in force (the “AAA Rules”), as modified by this Section. You and MDC agree that the Federal Arbitration Act applies and governs the interpretation and enforcement of this provision (despite the choice of law provision above). The AAA Rules, as well as instructions on how to file an arbitration proceeding with the AAA, appear at adr.org, or you may call the AAA at 1-800-778-7879. We can also help put you in touch with the AAA. Any arbitration hearings will take place in the county (or parish) of your billing address; provided, that if the claim is for $25,000 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 telephonic hearing; or (c) by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules in the county (or parish) of your billing address.

If you choose to file an arbitration proceeding and you are required to pay a filing fee, MDC will reimburse you for that filing fee, unless your claim is for greater than $10,000, in which case you will be responsible for the filing fee. MDC will pay any other arbitration fees, including your share of arbitrator compensation, unless otherwise required by AAA rules or court order. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator shall 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 fourteen (14) days of the arbitrator’s ruling on the merits.

Notice; Process

A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send a written notice of the dispute to the other, by certified mail, Federal Express, UPS, or Express Mail (signature required), or in the event that we do not have a physical address on file for you, by electronic mail (“Notice”). MDC’s address for Notice is: Mona Delahooke Consulting LLC c/o Lyons & Salky Law, LLP, 1216 Broadway, Suite 414, New York, New York 10001. The Notice must (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) set forth the specific relief sought (“Demand”). We agree to use good faith efforts to resolve the claim directly, but if we do not reach an agreement to do so within thirty (30) days after the Notice is received, you or MDC may commence an arbitration proceeding. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by you or MDC shall not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator makes a final decision and award, if any. In the event our dispute is finally resolved through arbitration in your favor, and the arbitrator issues you an award that is greater than the value of MDC’s last written settlement offer, then we will instead pay you either the amount of the award or $1,000, whichever is greater. All documents and information disclosed during the arbitration shall be kept strictly confidential by the recipient and shall not be used by the recipient for any purpose other than for purposes of the arbitration or the enforcement of the arbitrator’s decision and award and shall not be disclosed except in confidence to persons who have a need to know for such purposes or as required by applicable law.

Enforceability

If this arbitration Section is invalidated in whole or in part, the parties agree that the exclusive jurisdiction and venue described in Section 26 below shall govern any claim in court arising out of or related to the Terms of Use.

26. Choice of Law and Forum

Your access and use of the Services, all actions contemplated hereunder, and any and all disputes directly or indirectly arising out of or otherwise relating to this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the United States of America and the State of California as if these Terms of Use were an agreement wholly entered into and wholly performed within the State of California, without reference to the choice of law rules thereof. The exclusive jurisdiction for any claim or action arising from or relating to these Terms of Use or the use of the Site (except where arbitration is specified) shall be with the state or federal courts located in the State of California.

27. New Jersey Users

If you are a user residing in New Jersey, the following provisions of these Terms of Use do not apply to you (and do not limit any rights that you may have) to the extent that they are unenforceable under New Jersey law: (a) the disclaimer of liability for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, exemplary or punitive damages of any kind (for example, to the extent unenforceable under the New Jersey Punitive Damages Act, New Jersey Products Liability Act, New Jersey Uniform Commercial Code and New Jersey Consumer Fraud Act); (b) the limitations of liability for lost profits or loss or misuse of any data (for example, to the extent unenforceable under the New Jersey Identity Theft Protection Act and New Jersey Consumer Fraud Act); (c) application of the limitations of liability to the recovery of damages that arise under contract and tort, including negligence, strict liability, or any other theory (for example, to the extent such damages are recoverable by a consumer under New Jersey law, including the New Jersey Products Liability Act); (d) the requirement that you indemnify MDC and the Affiliated Entities (for example, to the extent the scope of such indemnity is prohibited under New Jersey law); (e) the limitation on your time for filing a claim against MDC hereunder, to the extent that such limitation in connection with a claim is shorter than the applicable limitation under New Jersey law; and (f) the New York governing law provision (for example, to the extent that your rights as a consumer residing in New Jersey are required to be governed by New Jersey law).D

28. Miscellaneous

If any condition of any part of the Terms of Use shall be deemed invalid, void, or unenforceable, that condition shall be deemed severable and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any other provision hereof or any term of the remaining Terms of Use. The headings contained herein are for purposes of convenience only and shall not control or affect the meaning or construction hereof. There Terms of Use include our Privacy Policy, and together constitute the entire agreement between you and MDC with respect to your use of the Site and the Content and supersede any and all prior understandings or agreements between you and MDC, whether written or oral. You acknowledge that, in providing you with access to and use of the Site, the Services, and the Content, MDC has relied on your acceptance of these Terms of Use.

29. Force Majeure

Neither party shall be liable for any failure or delay in performance under these Terms of Use (other than for delay in payments) for causes beyond the party’s reasonable control and not caused by that party’s fault, or negligence, including, but not limited to, acts of God, epidemic, pandemic, acts of government, flood, fire, civil unrest, acts of terror, strikes or other labor problems, computer attacks or malicious acts, such as attacks on or through the internet, any internet service provider, telecommunications or hosting facility (each, a “Force Majeure Event”), but in each case, only if and to the extent that the non-performing party is without fault in causing such failure or delay, and the failure or delay could not have been prevented by reasonable precautions and measures and cannot reasonably be circumvented by the non-conforming party through the use of alternate sources, workaround plans, disaster recovery, business continuity measures or other means. Dates by which performance obligations are scheduled to be met will be extended for a period of time equal to the time lost due to any delay so caused.
