11.1 If a controversy or dispute arises out of or relates to this Agreement, the parties’ rights under these Terms (whether arising in contract, tort or any other legal theory), or the action or inaction of any party, and whether based on U.S. federal, state or local statute or common law or any other Law, and regardless of the identities of any other defendants (any such controversy or dispute, a “Dispute”), a party may not commence any court or arbitration proceedings relating to the Dispute unless it has complied with the following paragraphs of this Section, except where the party seeks urgent interlocutory relief.

11.2 A party claiming the Dispute has arisen must give written notice to the other party specifying the nature of the Dispute.

11.3 On receipt of that notice, the parties will use all commercially reasonable efforts to resolve the Dispute by discussion, consultation, negotiation or other informal means.

11.4 If the Dispute is not resolved within 15 Business Days of the notice being given (or within such further period agreed in writing by the parties), either party may, by giving written notice to the other party, require the Dispute to be determined by the arbitration of a single arbitrator.  Such arbitrator shall settle the Dispute by agreement, mediation or arbitration in New York, New York in accordance with the commercial dispute rules of the Judicial and Mediation Services (JAMS).  Disputes involving claims and counterclaims under $250,000, not inclusive of attorneys’ fees and interest, shall be subject to JAMS’s most current version of the Streamlined Arbitration Rules and procedures available at http://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration/; all other claims shall be subject to JAMS’s most current version of the Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures, available at http://www.jamsadr.com/rules-comprehensive-arbitration/.  JAMS’s rules are also available at www.jamsadr.com or by calling JAMS at 800-352-5267.  If JAMS is not available to arbitrate, the parties will select an alternative arbitral forum.  If the arbitrator finds that you cannot afford to pay JAMS’s filing, administrative, hearing and/or other fees and cannot obtain a waiver from JAMS, we will pay them for you.  In addition, we will reimburse all such JAMS’s filing, administrative, hearing and/or other fees for claims totaling less than $10,000 unless the arbitrator determines the claims are frivolous.  Likewise, we will not seek attorneys’ fees and costs in arbitration unless the arbitrator determines the claims are frivolous.

11.7 As a Patron, you have the right to opt out of the provisions of this Arbitration Agreement by sending written notice of your decision to opt out to the following address: QED USA, Inc. 737 Franklin Ave, Apt 1 Brooklyn, NY 11238 within 30 days after first becoming subject to this Arbitration Agreement, your notice must include your name and address, your username (if any), the email address you used to set up your account (if you have one), and an unequivocal statement that you want to opt out of this Arbitration Agreement.    If you opt out of this Arbitration Agreement, all other parts of these Terms will continue to apply to you.  Opting out of this Arbitration Agreement has no effect on any other arbitration agreements that you may currently have, or may enter in the future, with us.  This clause 11.7 does not apply to Organizational Users. This clause 11.7 only applies to Patrons.
