E. Disputes, Arbitration, Governing Laws:
1. Both you and Epson agree that any controversy or claim arising out of or
relating to Epson products or services or this agreement, shall be resolved
by arbitration on an individual, non-class, non-representative basis,
rather than in court. The arbitration shall be governed by the rules of
JAMS that are in effect when the arbitration is filed, excluding any rules
that permit arbitration on a class or representative basis and under the
rules set forth in this agreement. The arbitrator, and not any federal,
state, or local court or agency shall have the exclusive authority to resolve
any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or
formation, including but not limited to, any claim that all or any part is
void or voidable. JAMS rules are available at http://www.jamsadr.com or
by calling 1-800-352-5267. Disputes shall be resolved by a single neutral
arbitrator, and both parties shall have a reasonable opportunity to
participate in the selection of the arbitrator. If you wish, you may appear
at the arbitration by phone. The arbitrator is bound by the terms of this
agreement.
2. Pre-Arbitration Steps and Notice. Before submitting a claim for
arbitration, you agree to try, for sixty (60) days, to resolve any dispute
include your name, address and contact information, the facts giving rise
to the dispute, and the relief requested. You agree to act in good faith to
resolve the dispute, but if you and Epson do not reach a resolution within
the sixty (60) days, you may commence an arbitration.
3. Opt-out. You may elect to opt-out (exclude yourself) from the final,
binding, individual arbitration procedure and waiver of class and
representative proceedings specified in this agreement by sending a
written letter to Epson America, Inc., ATTN: Legal Department,
3840 Kilroy Airport Way, Long Beach, CA 90806, within thirty (30)
days of your purchase of the Epson products and/or services that specifies
(i) your name, (ii) your mailing address, and (iii) your request to be
excluded from the final, binding, individual arbitration procedure and
waiver of class and representative proceedings specified in this Section F.
In the event that you opt-out consistent with the procedure set forth
above, all other terms shall continue to apply, including the requirement
to provide notice prior to litigation.
4. There is no judge or jury in arbitration and your grounds for appeal are
limited, however, the arbitrator is empowered to grant relief and award
you the same damages as a court could, including declaratory or
injunctive relief. Judgment on the arbitration may be entered in any
court having jurisdiction.
5. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you may bring an individual action in a
small claims court of your state or municipality if the action is within that
court’s jurisdiction and is pending only in that court.
6. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we also both agree that you or we may
bring suit in court to enjoin infringement or other misuse of trademark,
patent infringement, copyright, or trade secret.
7. Any action must be brought within one (1) year of the expiration of the
warranty.
8. If any provision in this Section F is found to be unenforceable, that
provision shall be severed with the remainder of this agreement
remaining in full force and effect. The foregoing shall not apply to the
prohibition against class or representative actions. This means that if
Section 9 (below) is found to be unenforceable, the entire Section 9 (but
only Section 9) shall be null and void.
9. We each agree that any dispute resolution proceedings will be
conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated
or representative action.
10.This Section F is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act.
F. Other Provisions:
1. Other Rights You May Have: This warranty gives you specific legal
rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from jurisdiction to
jurisdiction. Some jurisdictions do not allow limitations on how long an
implied warranty lasts, or allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental
or consequential damages, so the above limitations or exclusions may not
apply to you.
2. Warranties in Canada: In Canada, warranties include both warranties
and conditions.
3. Governing Law: Except for any claims subject to arbitration pursuant to
Section F, you and Epson agree that the law of the state where you reside
shall govern.
4. Venue: Except for claims subject to arbitration pursuant to Section F, in
the event of a dispute you and Epson both consent to the jurisdiction of
your state of residence or, if none, then of the courts in Los Angeles
County, California.
