of any dispute arising out of relating to the subject matter of these Terms of Use, Showcase

Talks’ officers, directors, employees, and independent contractors (“Personnel”) are third-party

beneficiaries of these Terms of Use, and that upon your acceptance of these Terms of Use,

Personnel will have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce these

Terms of Use against you as a third-party beneficiary hereof.


Arbitration Rules; Applicability of Arbitration Agreement


The parties shall use their best efforts to settle any dispute, claim, question, or disagreement

arising out of or relating to the subject matter of these Terms directly through good-faith

negotiations, which shall be a precondition to either party initiating arbitration. If such

negotiations do not resolve the dispute, it shall be finally settled by binding arbitration in New

York County, New York. The arbitration will proceed in the English language, in accordance

with the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures (the “Rules”) then in effect, by

one commercial arbitrator with substantial experience in resolving intellectual property and

commercial contract disputes. The arbitrator shall be selected from the appropriate list of JAMS

arbitrators in accordance with such Rules. Judgment upon the award rendered by such arbitrator

may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.


Cost of Arbitration


The Rules will govern payment of all arbitration fees. The Parties will share equally the costs of

the arbitration. Showcase Talks has the right to seek its attorneys fees and costs should it prevail.


Small Claims Court; Infringement


 Either you or Showcase Talks may assert claims, if they qualify, in small claims court in New York County, New York or any United States county where you live or work. Furthermore,

notwithstanding the foregoing obligation to arbitrate disputes, each party shall have the right to

pursue injunctive or other equitable relief at any time, from any court of competent jurisdiction,

to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation or violation of a party's

copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents or other intellectual property rights.


Waiver of Jury Trial


YOU AND SHOWCASE TALKS WAIVE ANY CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY

RIGHTS TO GO TO COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR JURY.

You and Showcase Talks are instead choosing to have claims and disputes resolved by

arbitration. Arbitration procedures are typically more limited, more efficient, and less costly than

rules applicable in court and are subject to very limited review by a court. In any litigation

between you and Showcase Talks over whether to vacate or enforce an arbitration award, YOU

AND CHASDOCS WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL, and elect instead to have the

dispute be resolved by a judge.


Waiver of Class or Consolidated Actions


ALL CLAIMS AND DISPUTES WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THIS ARBITRATION

AGREEMENT MUST BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS

AND NOT ON A CLASS BASIS. CLAIMS OF MORE THAN ONE CUSTOMER OR USER

CANNOT BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED JOINTLY OR CONSOLIDATED WITH

THOSE OF ANY OTHER CUSTOMER OR USER. If, however, this waiver of class or

consolidated actions is deemed invalid or unenforceable, neither you nor Showcase Talks is

entitled to arbitration; instead all claims and disputes will be resolved in a court as set forth in (g)

below.


You have the right to opt out of the provisions of this Section by sending written notice of your

decision to opt out to the following address: Showcase Talks LLC, 1441 Broadway, Ste 5036,

NY, NY 10018, Attention Legal Department, postmarked within thirty (30) days of first

accepting these Terms. You must include (i) your name and residence address, (ii) the email

address and/or telephone number associated with your account, and (iii) a clear statement that

you want to opt out of these Terms’ arbitration agreement.


If you send the opt-out notice as outlined above, and/or in any circumstances where the

foregoing arbitration agreement permits either you or Showcase Talks to litigate any dispute

arising out of or relating to the subject matter of these Terms in court, then the foregoing

arbitration agreement will not apply to either party, and both you and Showcase Talks agree that

any judicial proceeding (other than small claims actions) will be brought in the state or federal

courts located in, respectively, New York County, New York, or the federal district in which that

county falls.


If the prohibition against class actions and other claims brought on behalf of third parties

contained above is found to be unenforceable, then all of the preceding language in this

Arbitration Agreement section will be null and void. This arbitration agreement will survive the

termination of your relationship with Showcase Talks.

appearing on this Agreement or such other documents are the same as handwritten signatures for

the purposes of validity, enforceability, and admissibility.


B. SMS/Text Communications


By voluntarily providing your cell phone number to Showcase Talks, you agree that Showcase

brought by you more than one (1) year after the cause of action arose; actions brought thereafter

are forever barred.


D. Severability


In the event any one or more of the provisions of this Agreement shall for any reason be held to

be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall be

unimpaired. Further, the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision shall be replaced by a

provision that comes closest to the intention of the parties that underlie the invalid, illegal or

unenforceable provision, except to the extent no such provision is valid, legal and enforceable, in

which case such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision shall be limited or eliminated to the

minimum extent necessary so that the other provisions of this Agreement remain in full force and

effect and enforceable.


E. Governing Law; Language


This Agreement shall be deemed to have been entered into and shall be construed and enforced

in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act, applicable federal law, and the laws of the State

of New York as applied to contracts made and to be performed entirely within New York,

without giving effect to the state’s conflicts of law statute. This Agreement and all documents

referenced herein were drafted in the English language and any translations thereof shall not be

binding on either party to the extent they conflict with the English versions.


F. Entire Agreement; Waiver


This Agreement and any supplemental terms, policies, rules and guidelines posted through the

Services, each of which are incorporated herein by reference, including the Privacy Policy,

the Acceptable Use Policy and the Community Standards, constitute the entire agreement

between you and us and supersede all previous written or oral agreements. The failure of either

party to exercise in any respect any right provided for herein shall not be deemed a waiver of any

further rights hereunder.

The headings of the sections of this Agreement are for convenience only, do not form a part

hereof, and in no way limit, define, describe, modify, interpret or construe the meaning, scope or

intent of this Agreement or any terms or conditions therein.


H. Assignment


We may assign this Agreement at any time, including, without limitation, to any parent,

subsidiary, or any affiliated company, or as part of the sale to, merger with, or other transfer of

our business or any assets to another entity. You may not assign, transfer or sublicense this

Agreement to anyone else and any attempt to do so in violation of this section shall be null and

void.
