Dispute Resolution

Binding Arbitration

If, for some reason, you and PLCom are unable to resolve any dispute or a claim by negotiating, either party is authorized to have the claim or dispute resolved with a binding arbitration.

Arbitration is to start and be conducted under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (AAA), which is available on the AAA website, (www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879). PLCom will pay for any AAA filing or administration, including any arbitrator fees, unless provided otherwise. But, if the arbitrator finds that the substance of the claim made by you or the relief that is sought by you is frivolous, or does not meet the rules of the Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b), then you will have to pay any arbitrator fees, apart from any and all other fees that surpass the initial filing fees. In such case, you will be required to reimburse PLCom for all the payments that are your obligation under the rules put forth by the AAA. In this case, the arbitrator is going to be bound by the terms of this agreement.

Any issues that arise are for the arbitrator to resolve, apart from those issues that are related to enforcing the arbitration provision, which is to be resolved by the Court of Competent Jurisdiction. The arbitration can be carried out in person, through submission of a form, online or by phone. The arbitrator is required to issue a decision that will be in writing, but can also provide a statement of reasons if that's requested by the party.

Arbitrators are to follow all laws that are applicable. If not, awards may be challenged. PLCom can litigate to compel the arbitration in court, or to stay proceedings that are pending arbitration, or modify, vacate or confirm judgement on an award that has been entered by an arbitrator. The arbitrator will award any costs to the prevailing party, which is also going to include any fees, expenses or attorney fees at the time of the proceedings and upon the request of the other party within 14 days of the ruling on the merits.

Restrictions Against Joinder of Claims

Both PLCom and you agree that an arbitration is to be limited to each of the claims on an individual basis. Both you and PLCom will agree that each can only bring claims against the other in the individual capacity of either you or PLCom, and not as a plaintiff or a class member for any representative proceedings or purported class.

If a provision cannot be enforced in a Court of Competent Jurisdiction, then the claim will be resolved exclusively by a binding arbitration upon an election of either party. Any election for the arbitration of one party will be considered final and will be binding on all others with additions to; (a) no arbitration is to be joined with another arbitration, (b) there's no right for the arbitration of a claim on a class action basis, or for the implication of any class-action procedures, and (c) No right is granted to any authority pertaining to any dispute to be brought forward in a purported representative capacity on behalf of an individual or any person in the general public.

Remedies in Aid of Arbitration; Equitable Relief

This agreement on the subject of arbitration is not to preclude you or PLCom from being able to seek out provisional remedies that will be in aid of the arbitration. This will include, but without any limits to, any orders for staying a court action, or a compel arbitration or confirmation of an arbitral award from the Court of Competent Jurisdiction. Apart from that, this agreement for arbitration is to not preclude you or PLCom from being able to apply to the Court of Competent Jurisdiction for either a temporary restraining order, a preliminary injunction or any conservatory relief. The Court of Competent Jurisdiction means any state or federal court that; (a) has a jurisdiction over the subject, (b) is located in Luxembourg.

Venue for a Judicial Proceeding

This agreement, but without any limitations, shall be considered as if it was executed in Luxembourg, and will be governed by the laws of Luxembourg without regards to any conflict of the principles of the law.
