10. AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE DISPUTES

WE BOTH AGREE TO ARBITRATE.

You hereby agree that any dispute between you and MIKING relating to, concerning, or arising out of this Legal Statement (including disputes about the validity, scope, or enforceability of this arbitration provision), the Privacy Policy, the Sites and/or an item purchased through the Sites (“Covered Disputes”) will be settled by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules (the “Rules” available at https://www.adr.org) in effect on the date thereof. The arbitration will be conducted before a single neutral arbitrator chosen by the parties and may be held by telephone or in-person. Disputes may also be resolved by submission of documents and without in-person or telephonic hearings as provided by the Rules. To the extent necessary, the locale of the hearing will be the county of the consumer’s home address or, at the consumer’s election, such other locale as mutually agreed to by the parties, or as determined by the arbitrator. Payment of all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA’s rules. In the event you are able to demonstrate that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to the costs of litigation, MIKING will pay as much of your filing, administrative, and arbitrator fees in connection with the arbitration as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive. The arbitration will allow for the discovery or exchange of non-privileged information relevant to the dispute.

NO CLASS ACTIONS.

The arbitration before the AAA shall proceed solely on an individual basis without the right for any claims to be arbitrated on a class action basis or on a basis involving claims brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of others. The arbitrator’s authority to resolve and make written awards is limited to claims between you and MIKING alone. Claims may not be joined or consolidated unless agreed to in a writing by all parties. No arbitration award or decision will have any preclusive effect as to issues or claims in any dispute with anyone who is not a named party to the arbitration. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT BY AGREEING TO THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION YOU ARE WAIVING YOUR RIGHT TO MAINTAIN OTHER AVAILABLE DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCESSES, SUCH AS A COURT ACTION, OR A CLASS ACTION. If you initiate a litigation or any other proceeding against MIKING in violation of this paragraph, and MIKING is the prevailing party in any such litigation or proceeding, you agree to pay Miking’s reasonable costs and attorneys’ fees incurred in connection with its enforcement of this paragraph.

REPRESENTATIVE PAGA WAIVER.

Notwithstanding any other provision of these Terms or the Agreement to Arbitrate, to the fullest extent permitted by law: (1) you and MIKING expressly intend and agree not to assert a representative action on behalf of others under the Private Attorneys General Act of 2004 (“PAGA”), California Labor Code § 2698 et seq., in any court or in arbitration, and (2) for any claim brought on a private attorney general basis, including under the California PAGA, both you and MIKING agree that any such dispute shall be resolved in arbitration on an individual basis only (i.e., to resolve whether you have personally been aggrieved or subject to any violations of law), and that such an action may not be used to resolve the claims or rights of other individuals in a single or collective proceeding (i.e., to resolve whether other individuals have been aggrieved or subject to any violations of law) (collectively, “representative PAGA Waiver”). Notwithstanding any other provision of these Terms, this Agreement to Arbitrate, or the Rules, disputes regarding the scope, applicability, enforceability, revocability or validity of this representative PAGA Waiver may be resolved only by a civil court of competent jurisdiction and not by an arbitrator. If any provision of this representative PAGA Waiver is found to be unenforceable or unlawful for any reason: (i) the unenforceable provision shall be severed from these Terms; (ii) severance of the unenforceable provision shall have no impact whatsoever on the Agreement to Arbitrate or the requirement that any remaining Covered Disputes be arbitrated on an individual basis pursuant to the Agreement to Arbitrate; and (iii) any such representative PAGA or other representative private attorneys general act claims must be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction and not in arbitration. To the extent that there are any Covered Disputes to be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction because a civil court of competent jurisdiction determines that the representative PAGA Waiver is unenforceable with respect to those Covered Disputes, the Parties agree that litigation of those Covered Disputes shall be stayed pending the outcome of any individual Covered Disputes in arbitration.

EXCEPTIONS TO ARBITRATION.

This Agreement to Arbitrate shall not require arbitration of the following types of Covered Disputes (1) small claims actions brought on an individual basis that are within the scope of such small claims court’s jurisdiction; (2) a representative action brought on behalf of others under PAGA or other private attorneys general acts, to the extent the representative PAGA Waiver of such action is deemed unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction under applicable law not preempted by the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. sec. 1-16).

OPT-OUT OF AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE.

You can reject this Agreement to Arbitrate by emailing MIKING at customercare@miking.us and providing the requested information as follows: (1) Your Name; (2) the URL of the Terms and Agreement to Arbitrate Disputes; (3) Your Address; (4) Your Phone Number; (5) and clear statement that you wish to opt out of this arbitration provision in the Terms. The Opt-Out Notice must be emailed no later than 30 days after the date you first accept the Terms by using the MIKING Sites.

THIS LEGAL STATEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF FLORIDA WITHOUT REGARD TO ITS CONFLICTS OF LAWS RULES. For any matters which are not subject to arbitration as set forth in this Legal Statement, you irrevocably submit and consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state and federal courts located in or closest to the County of Dade in the State of Florida. You agree not to raise the defense of forum non conveniens.11. Severability If any term of these Terms is to any extent illegal, otherwise invalid, or incapable of being enforced, such term shall be excluded to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability; all other terms hereof shall remain in full force and effect; and, to the extent permitted and possible, the invalid or unenforceable term shall be deemed replaced by a term that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of such invalid or unenforceable term. If application of this Severability provision should materially and adversely affect the economic substance of the transactions contemplated hereby, the Party adversely impacted shall be entitled to compensation for such adverse impact, provided the reason for the invalidity or unenforceability of a term is not due to serious misconduct by the Party seeking such compensation.
