(a) Any claim, controversy, cause of action, or dispute arising out of, relating to, or in connection with the Promotional Terms and the Web Services (“Claim”) will be exclusively governed by the laws of the United States of America and the State of California, consistent with the Federal Arbitration Act, without regard to conflict of law provisions or giving effect to any principles that may provide for the application of the laws of another jurisdiction. You agree that any subpoena, third-party discovery request, or other third-party process directed by you to SLR must issue from, or be domesticated by, the state or federal courts located within Los Angeles County, California.
(b) All Claims must be exclusively and finally resolved and settled by binding arbitration administered by and in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) before a single arbitrator who is a member of the AAA. Arbitrations will be held in Los Angeles, California, but the parties may choose for themselves whether to appear in person, by phone, or through the submission of documents. The arbitrator will issue a ruling in writing, and will detail all findings of fact and law upon which the ruling was made. The arbitrator will not have the power to commit errors of law or legal reasoning, and the ruling may be vacated or corrected on appeal to a court of competent jurisdiction for such errors. The arbitrator’s ruling will otherwise be final and binding on all parties, and may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any claim that is not subject to arbitration shall be adjudicated by a state or federal court located within Los Angeles County, California (“Court”).
(c) YOU AND SLR AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING OR PARTICIPATE IN CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN THEIR RESPECTIVE INDIVIDUAL CAPACITIES, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. UNLESS BOTH YOU AND SLR AGREE OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE OR JOIN THE CLAIMS OF OTHER PERSONS OR PARTIES WHO MAY BE SIMILARLY SITUATED, AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS PROCEEDING. IF A CLAIM IMPLICATES THIS SUBSECTION (C), AND THIS SUBSECTION (C) IS FOUND TO BE INVALID, UNENFORCEABLE OR ILLEGAL BY A COURT, SUCH CLAIM MUST BE ADJUDICATED BY A COURT AND NOT BY AN ARBITRATOR.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in these Promotional Terms, either party may apply for injunctive remedies (or an equivalent type of urgent legal relief) in any jurisdiction.

The Promotional Terms may not be amended or modified except as mutually agreed upon in writing by the parties. The failure by either party to enforce any provision of these Promotional Terms shall in no way be construed to be a present or future waiver of such provision, nor in any way affect the right of such party to enforce such provision thereafter, except pursuant to a writing executed by the party against whom the waiver is sought to be enforced. You may not assign the Promotional Terms without SLR’s prior consent. SLR may freely assign or otherwise transfer its rights and obligations under these Promotional Terms, in whole or in part. If any provision of the Promotional Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the parties will substitute for the affected provision a valid or enforceable provision that approximates the intent and economic effect of the affected provision. If such substitution is not possible, the provision will be severed from the Promotional Terms and the rest of the Promotional Terms shall remain in full force and effect. Sections 2, 7, 8, 9, and 10 of the Promotional Terms will survive any termination of the Web Services or these Promotional Terms.
