The place of any such arbitration shall be in or near Ramsey County, Minnesota. The parties also agree that the AAA Optional Rules for Emergency Measures of Protection shall apply to the proceedings.

If you or Company files a demand for Arbitration that is one of fifty (50) or more similar demands for Arbitration filed against the other party (i.e., against you or Company, as applicable) by parties represented by the same law firm or law firms acting in coordination (“Mass Arbitration”), the arbitration of the Dispute, and all other Disputes constituting the Mass Arbitration, shall be conducted in accordance with the American Arbitration Associaton’s Mass Arbitration Supplementary Rules.
In the event of a Mass Arbitration, any issues arising under or relating to (a) the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of these Terms, including any claim that all or any part of these Terms are void or voidable or (b) the jurisdiction of the arbitrator, including any objections with respect to the existence, scope, or validity of this Section or the arbitrability of any claim or counterclaim, shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction.
Choice Of Law and Forum
The Terms shall be governed by the laws of the State of Minnesota. You agree to personal jurisdiction therein.
To the extent that any Dispute is not governed by the Arbitration provision above, you agree that the courts of Minnesota will have jurisdiction. You agree that any claims will be brought and maintained on an individual basis and not as part of any class, consolidated, collective, or representative capacity, and that you waive the right to a jury trial.
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
