GOVERNING LAWS; JURISDICTION; ARBITRATION

       The Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the United States and the State of California governing contracts entered into and to be fully performed in the state of California (i.e., without regard to conflict of laws provisions) regardless of your location.  You acknowledge that the rights granted and obligations made hereunder to Showbizzle are of a unique and irreplaceable nature, the loss of which shall irreparably harm Showbizzle and which cannot be replaced by monetary damages alone so that Showbizzle shall be entitled to injunctive or other equitable relief (without the obligations of posting any bond or surety) in the event of any breach or anticipatory breach by you.  You irrevocably waive all rights to seek injunctive or other equitable relief and agree to limit your claims to claims for money damages (if any).  Except with respect to the interpretation, protection or enforcement of Showbizzle’s claimed intellectual property rights or right to seek injunctive relief (which will only be subject to arbitration if the parties mutually agree), you agree that any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Site (including, without limitation, statutory, equitable or tort claims) shall be resolved solely by binding arbitration before a sole arbitrator under the rules and regulations of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”).  The arbitration shall be held in Los Angeles, California.  The arbitrator shall apply the substantive laws of the State of California, shall issue a written decision, and shall have the power to award any legal remedies consistent with this Agreement except for punitive, exemplary or special damages.  The parties expressly incorporate into these Terms the terms of California Code of Civil Procedure Sections 1283 and 1283.05 pertaining to pre-hearing discovery.  The parties will split the arbitrator’s fee; provided, however, if applicable law requires Showbizzle to pay the arbitrator’s fee in order for the arbitration provision to be enforceable, Showbizzle shall have the discretion to elect to pay such fees and proceed to arbitration.  You agree that the provisions in this paragraph will survive any termination of your account(s).  You irrevocably agree that any and all disputes, claims and causes of action you may have in connection with or related to the Site will be resolved individually, without resort to any form of class action.  ANY CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM YOU MAY HAVE WITH RESPECT TO ANY SITE MUST BE COMMENCED WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER SUCH CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISES.
