(1) THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS IN FORCE IN THE STATE OF ARIZONA, EXCLUDING
ITS CONFLICTS OF LAW RULES. The parties expressly agree to exclude
the operation of the United Nations Convention on the International
Sale of Goods. YOU HEREBY EXPRESSLY AGREE THAT THE FEDERAL AND STATE
COURTS PRESIDING IN PHOENIX, ARIZONA SHALL HAVE SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE
JURISDICTION OF ANY AND ALL CAUSES OF ACTION arising out of or in
connection with this Agreement or any use of this Web site, the
Service or any products or services provided in connection therewith,
and you agree that you shall not commence any legal action against
CyberSwimClub.com except in such courts. The parties expressly waive
any claim of lack of jurisdiction or improper venue in any legal
proceeding arising out of, in connection with, pursuant or incident,
to this Agreement or any use of this Web site, the Service or any
products or services provided in connection therewith.
(2) FURTHER, ALL PROCEEDINGS ARISING OUT OF, IN CONNECTION
WITH, PURSUANT OR INCIDENT TO, THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY USE OF THIS
WEB SITE, THE SERVICE OR ANY PRODUCTS OR SERVICES PROVIDED IN CONNECTION
THEREWITH SHALL BE SUBMITTED EXCLUSIVELY TO ARBITRATION IN PHOENIX,
ARIZONA. Such arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with
the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association
using an arbitrator who is an experienced commercial litigator and
who is admitted to practice law before the bar of any state of the
United States. The dispute will be determined by one (1) arbitrator
acceptable to both parties who shall be selected within seven (7)
days of receipt of notice of intention to arbitrate by the other
party receiving the notice. If by the end of said seven (7) day
period, the parties have not agreed on one (1) arbitrator, then
either party may request that the American Arbitration Association
appoint the arbitrator. The arbitrator shall be compensated for
his/her services at the standard hourly rate charged in their private
professional activities. The United States Federal Rules of Civil
Procedure shall apply with respect to any arbitration hereunder.
The award of the arbitrator shall be accompanied by findings of
fact and written statement of reasons for the decision. The parties
agree to be bound by the results of this arbitration. Any party
may apply to the courts specified above, without waiving any remedy
of arbitration, to obtain injunctive or other equitable relief.
The arbitration award shall be made within three months of the filing
of the notice of intention to arbitrate, and the arbitrator shall
agree to comply with this schedule before accepting appointment.
The United States Arbitration Act shall govern the interpretation,
enforcement and proceedings pursuant to this arbitration agreement.
The prevailing party shall be entitled to an award of reasonable
attorneys' fees. The arbitrator shall determine how to allocate
costs and expenses for the arbitration between the parties. Except
as may be required by law, neither the parties nor the arbitrator
shall disclose the existence, content or results of any arbitration
without the prior written consent of all of the parties.
14. Canadian Jurisdiction. If you are accessing the Service
from Canada you agree to be bound by the following provisions:
1) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance
with the laws in force in the Province of Ontario, excluding its
conflicts of law rules. The parties expressly agree to exclude the
operation of the United Nations Convention on the International
Sale of Goods. You hereby expressly attorn to the jurisdiction of
the courts of Ontario, and you agree that you shall not commence
any legal action against CyberSwimClub.com except in the courts
in the Province of Ontario.
2) In the event that the parties are unable to resolve a
disagreement or dispute arising hereunder, either party may serve
a notice on the other party of its intention to formally arbitrate,
pursuant to the provisions of the Arbitration Act (Ontario) stating
with reasonable particularity the subject matter of such dispute.
Within 7 days of service of such notice the parties shall appoint
a single arbitrator. Should the parties be unable to agree upon
a single arbitrator within such 7 day period, then any party may
at any time thereafter select its own arbitrator and may serve notice
upon the other party to select an arbitrator. Upon receipt of such
notice the other party shall have 5 days in which to appoint an
arbitrator. The two arbitrators thus selected shall appoint a third
arbitrator within 5 days of the appointment of the second arbitrator,
and the three arbitrators shall constitute a board of arbitrators
(herein referred to as the "Board of Arbitrators") which
shall determine the matter. If any party shall fail to name an arbitrator
within 5 days of receipt of a demand to do so upon application by
the party that has appointed an arbitrator, the second arbitrator
shall be appointed by any Judge of the Ontario Superior Court of
Justice. The arbitrator or arbitrators selected to act hereunder
shall be qualified by education and training to pass upon the particular
question in dispute. Unless otherwise agreed by the parties, each
party shall bear the costs it incurs in connection with the arbitration
and all other costs of the arbitration shall be borne equally by
the parties hereto. The decision of the single arbitrator or the
Board of Arbitrators or the majority thereof shall be communicated
to the parties not later than 30 days after the close of argument
in the arbitration, subject to any reasonable delay due to unforeseen
circumstances. The decision of the single arbitrator or of the majority
of the Board of Arbitrators, as the case may be, shall be drawn
up in writing and signed and shall, notwithstanding anything to
the contrary contained in the Arbitration Act of the Province of
Ontario and subject to the specific provisions of and limitations
in this Agreement, be final and binding upon the parties hereto
and all persons claiming through or under them as to any question
or questions so submitted to arbitration, and the parties shall
perform the terms and conditions thereof. Judgment upon the award
rendered by the single arbitrator or the majority of the Board of
Arbitrators, as the case may be, may be entered in any Court having
jurisdiction and thereupon execution or other legal process may
issue thereon. The obligations of the parties under this Agreement
shall continue to be performed during the dispute resolution proceedings
contemplated by this provision.
