XXI. Dispute Resolution.

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION CAREFULLY. IT REQUIRES YOU TO ARBITRATE DISPUTES WITH LOCAL GIFT ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU MAY SEEK RELIEF FROM LOCAL GIFT.

(a) Informal Resolution. You and Local Gift agree that good-faith informal efforts to resolve disputes often can result in a prompt, low-cost and mutually beneficial outcome. You and Local Gift therefore agree that, before either you or Local Gift demands arbitration against the other, we will personally meet and confer, via telephone or videoconference, in a good-faith effort to resolve informally any claim covered by this mutual Arbitration Agreement. If you are represented by counsel, your counsel may participate in the conference, but you shall also fully participate in the conference. The party initiating the claim must give notice to the other party in writing of its, his, or her intent to initiate an informal dispute resolution conference, which shall occur within 60 days after the other party receives such notice, unless an extension is mutually agreed upon by the parties. To notify Local Gift that you intend to initiate an informal dispute resolution conference, email [email protected], providing your name, telephone number associated with your Local Gift account (if any), the email address associated with your Local Gift account, and a description of your claim. In the interval between the party receiving such notice and the informal dispute resolution conference, the parties shall be free to attempt to resolve the initiating party's claims. Engaging in an informal dispute resolution conference is a requirement that must be fulfilled before commencing arbitration. The statute of limitations and any filing fee deadlines shall be tolled while the parties engage in the informal dispute resolution process required by this paragraph.

(b) Binding Arbitration . The requirement to submit to binding arbitration shall be referred to herein as the “Arbitration Agreement.” Except as specifically stated herein, any dispute or claim between you and Local Gift and/or its subsidiaries, affiliates, and/or any of their respective members, officers, directors, and employees (all such entities collectively referred to herein as the “Local Gift Entities”) arising out of, relating in any way to, or in connection with the Terms of Use, the Site or your use of the Site, your Personal Information, or any Products or Merchant Offerings (“Dispute(s)”) shall be resolved exclusively by final, binding arbitration; except that you may bring a qualifying claim over a Dispute in a small claims court. By virtue of this Dispute Agreement (defined below), you and Local Gift are each giving up the right to go to court and have a Dispute heard by a judge or jury (except as otherwise set forth in this Section). The provisions of this Section shall constitute your and Local Gift's written agreement to arbitrate Disputes under the Federal Arbitration Act (“ Dispute Agreement ”). The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“ AAA ”) and conducted before a single arbitrator pursuant to its rules, including, without limitation, the AAA's Consumer-Arbitration Rules, available at the ADR Consumer site. The arbitrator will apply and be bound by this Agreement, apply applicable law and the facts, and issue a reasoned award, if appropriate. To begin an arbitration proceeding, you must submit the Dispute by utilizing the forms available at ADR Consumer site, and simultaneously sending a copy of the completed form to the following address: TR41, PLLC 1557 Mount Eagle Place, Alexandria, VA 22302 Payment of all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA's rules. Local Gift will not seek attorneys' fees and costs in arbitration unless the arbitrator determines the Dispute is frivolous. The arbitration will be conducted based upon written submissions unless you request, and/or the arbitrator determines, that a telephone or in-person hearing is necessary. In addition, you hereby unconditionally agree that (1) the arbitrator's decision shall be controlled by these Terms of Use and any of the other agreements referenced herein that you may have entered into in connection with the Site; (2) the arbitrator shall apply Delaware law consistent with the FAA and applicable statutes of limitations, and shall honor claims of privilege recognized at law; and (3) in the event the AAA is unavailable or unwilling to hear the Dispute, you and the applicable Local Gift Entity(ies) shall agree to, or a court shall select, another arbitration provider.

(c) No Class Action Matters . We each agree that we shall bring any Dispute against the other in our respective individual capacities and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class, representative proceeding or as an association. In addition, we each agree that Disputes shall be arbitrated only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated, or representative action and that the arbitrator may award relief (including injunctive relief) only on an individual basis. The arbitrator does not have the power to vary these provisions. BY ACCEPTING THIS AGREEMENT, YOU ELECT NOT TO PARTICIPATE IN ANY CLASS ACTION MATTER AGAINST LOCAL GIFT.

(d) Opt Out. Any update to the Terms of Use does not provide an opportunity for you to opt out of the agreement to submit to binding arbitration if you previously agreed to this Agreement and did not validly opt out of this Agreement. If you create a Local Gift account for the first time on or after January 1, 2021, you may opt out of this Arbitration Agreement. To opt out, you must notify Local Gift in writing no later than 30 days after first becoming subject to this Arbitration Agreement. Your notice must include your name and address, the email address you currently use to access your Local Gift account (if you have one), and a clear statement that you want to opt out of this Mutual Arbitration Agreement. You must send your opt-out notice to: [email protected]. If you opt out of this Arbitration Agreement, all other parts of this Agreement will continue to apply to you. Opting out of this Arbitration Agreement has no effect on any other arbitration agreements that you may have entered into with Local Gift or may enter into in the future with Local Gift. (e) Choice of Law and Forum; No Jury Trial . If for any reason a Dispute proceeds in court: (i) except with respect to a qualifying claim over a Dispute in a small claims court, which you shall have the right to bring in a court of competent jurisdiction in the county in which you reside, you and Local Gift agree that any Dispute may only be instituted in a state or federal court in Santa Barbara, California; (ii) you and Local Gift irrevocably consent and submit to the exclusive personal jurisdiction and venue of such courts for resolution of such Disputes; and (iii) you and Local Gift agree to waive any right to a trial by jury. You and Local Gift agree that the Federal Arbitration Act, the AAA rules, applicable federal law, and the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to principles of conflicts of law, will govern this Dispute Agreement and any Disputes.

(e) Injunctive Relief . Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Dispute Agreement, either party may bring suit in court seeking an injunction or other equitable relief arising out of or relating to the infringement of a party's intellectual property, or any illegal or intentional act affecting the accessibility, functionality, or the security of the Site, and/or any illegal or intentional act against your interests or the general business interests of Local Gift.

(f) Severability . With the exception of provision (c) of this Section above, if any part of this Section is ruled to be unenforceable, then the balance of this Section shall remain in full effect and construed and enforced as if the portion ruled unenforceable were not contained herein. If provision (c) of this Section above is ruled to be unenforceable, then provision (b) of this Section above shall be deemed unenforceable, but the rest of Section 24 shall remain in full effect.

XXII. Additional Disclosures.

No waiver by Local Gift of any breach or default or failure to exercise any right allowed under these Terms of Use is a waiver of any preceding or subsequent breach or default or a waiver or forfeiture of any similar or future rights under our Terms of Use.

The section headings used herein are for convenience only and shall be of no legal force or effect.

If a court of competent jurisdiction holds any provision of our Terms of Use invalid, such invalidity shall not affect the enforceability of any other provisions contained in these Terms of Use, and the remaining portions of our Terms of Use shall continue in full force and effect.
