16. RESOLVING DISPUTES: FORUM, ARBITRATION, CLASS ACTION WAIVER, GOVERNING LAW
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY, AS IT INVOLVES A WAIVER OF CERTAIN RIGHTS TO BRING LEGAL PROCEEDINGS, INCLUDING AS A CLASS ACTION FOR RESIDENTS OF THE U.S.

16.1 Please contact Quorum first! Quorum wants to address Client’s concerns without resorting to formal legal proceedings. Before filing a claim, Client agrees to try to resolve the dispute informally by contacting Quorum first through or support@quorumoutdoor.com via their allocated Account Manager.
16.2 Judicial forum for disputes. Client and Quorum agree that any judicial proceeding to resolve claims relating to this Agreement or the Services will be brought in the federal or state courts located in New York, NY, subject to the mandatory arbitration provisions below. Client and Quorum consent to venue and personal jurisdiction in such courts. Notwithstanding the above, we agree that Client alternatively may attend any arbitration proceedings telephonically or videographically, in which case Quorum will do so as well. U.S. RESIDENTS ALSO AGREE TO THE FOLLOWING MANDATORY ARBITRATION AND CLASS

ACTION WAIVER:
16.3 Arbitration.
Both Parties Agree to Arbitrate. Client and Quorum agree to resolve any claims relating to this Agreement or the Services through final and binding arbitration, except as set forth under Exceptions to Agreement to Arbitrate below.
Arbitration Procedures. The American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) (https://www.adr.org) will administer the arbitration under its Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (https://www.adr.org/sites/default/files/commercial_rules.pdf). The arbitration will be held in the United States in accordance with the venue specified in Section 17.2.

Arbitration Fees and Incentives. The AAA rules will govern payment of all arbitration fees. Quorum will pay all arbitration fees for Client on a pre-pay plan. Quorum will not seek its attorneys’ fees and costs in arbitration unless the arbitrator determines that Client’s claim is frivolous.
Exceptions to Agreement to Arbitrate. Either Client or Quorum may assert claims, if they qualify, in small claims court in San Francisco, California. Either party may bring a lawsuit solely for injunctive relief to stop unauthorized use or abuse of the Services, or intellectual property infringement (for example, trademark, trade secret, copyright, or patent rights) without first engaging in arbitration or the informal dispute-resolution process described above. Arbitration will not be binding with regards to the Quorum Materials at Quorum’s sole discretion. If the agreement to arbitrate is found not to apply to Client or Client’s claim, Client agrees to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in San Francisco County, California to resolve Client’s claim.

Opt Out of Agreement to Arbitrate. Client can decline this agreement to arbitrate by sending an email within thirty (30) days of first accepting this Agreement to arbitration_optout@quorumoutdoor.com clearly stating that Client wishes to opt out of arbitration with Quorum and include Client’s first and last name, the company for which the account was created, and the email address associated with the account.

16.4 Class Action Waiver.
Both parties agree to resolve any disputes, claims, or controversies on an individual basis, and that any claims arising out of, relating to or in connection with this Agreement (such as with respect to their validity or enforceability), the Quorum Materials, or any services provided by Quorum will be brought in an individual capacity, and not on behalf of, or as part of, any purported class, consolidated, or representative proceeding.
16.5 Controlling Law. This Agreement is governed by the law of the State of New York except for its conflicts of laws principles, unless otherwise required by a mandatory law of any other jurisdiction.

17.6 Waiver. The failure of a party to require performance of any provision will not affect that party’s right to require performance at any time thereafter, nor will a waiver of any breach or default of this Agreement or any provision of this Agreement constitute a waiver of any subsequent breach or default or a waiver of the provision itself.
