1. ARBITRATION AGREEMENT. YOU AND U.S. LAND BROKER Co-op AGREE THAT ANY CLAIMS OR DISPUTES (“Claims”) THAT ARISE OUT OF OR RELATE IN ANY WAY TO THE TERMS OF THE VISITOR AGREEMENT, THE Co-op SITES, OR ANY SERVICE (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO BILLING DISPUTES) SHALL BE RESOLVED BY FINAL AND BINDING ARBITRATION OR IN SMALL CLAIMS COURT. In arbitration, there is no judge and no jury. Instead, Claims are decided by an arbitrator whose authority is created by and governed by this arbitration agreement. Review of arbitration awards in the courts is very limited.
2. CLASS ACTION WAIVER: YOU AND U.S. LAND BROKER Co-op AGREE THAT ALL CLAIMS BETWEEN US WILL BE RESOLVED IN AN INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION. WE BOTH AGREE THAT THERE WILL BE NO CLASS, REPRESENTATIVE, OR CONSOLIDATED ACTIONS IN ARBITRATION. In addition, neither you nor U.S. Land Broker Co-op may participate in a class or representative action in court as a class member if the claims asserted in the litigation would fall within the scope of this arbitration agreement if asserted directly by you or U.S. Land Broker Co-op. To be clear, you and U.S. Land Broker Co-op both waive any right to participate in any class action involving disputes between us. This class action waiver is an essential part of our arbitration agreement and may not be severed. If for any reason this class action waiver is found unenforceable, then the entire arbitration agreement will not apply. However, the Jury Trial Waiver set forth in Section 9 of the Visitor Agreement will remain in full force and effect.
3. ARBITRATOR AUTHORITY: The arbitrator's authority is governed by this arbitration agreement. You and U.S. Land Broker Co-op agree that the arbitrator may award the same relief that a court of competent jurisdiction could award - consistent with and limited by the Visitor Agreement (including the limitations of liability set forth in Section 10), but the arbitrator may not award declaratory or injunctive relief that extends beyond you and your dealings with U.S. Land Broker Co-op. An arbitrator may award attorneys' fees and costs to the prevailing party if a court would be authorized to do so under the applicable law.
4. ARBITRATION PROCEDURES: You and U.S. Land Broker Co-op agree that your agreement affects interstate commerce, and the Federal Arbitration Act applies. All arbitrations shall be conducted by JAMS Endispute under its Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures (“JAMS”). These Rules are available on the JAMS website at https://www.jamsadr.com or by calling 1.800.352.5267. If there is a conflict between the JAMS Rules and this arbitration agreement, then this arbitration agreement shall control. U.S. Land Broker Co-op will pay all filing fees and costs associated with commencing an arbitration, but you will be responsible for paying your own attorneys' fees (if you chose to use an attorney in arbitration) unless you prevail in the arbitration and the arbitrator finds that you are entitled to recover your fees under the law. Except for claims determined to be frivolous, U.S. Land Broker Co-op agrees not to seek an award of attorneys' fees in arbitration even if an award is otherwise available under applicable law. If you bring an arbitration against U.S. Land Broker Co-op the arbitration hearing will be held in your hometown area, unless we both agree on a different location.
5. SURVIVAL: This arbitration agreement survives the termination of this Visitor Agreement between you and U.S. Land Broker Co-op

1. You and U.S. Land Broker Co-op expressly and knowingly WAIVE THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY. This means that if for any reason the arbitration agreement contained in Section 8 is not enforced or is found inapplicable, our claims against each other will be resolved by a judge rather than a jury.

YOU AGREE THAT THE LIABILITY OF U.S. LAND BROKER AND ITS AFFILIATES, AGENTS, AND LICENSORS, IF ANY, ARISING OUT OF ANY KIND OF LEGAL CLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR OTHERWISE RELATING TO THE Co-op SITES WILL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT YOU PAID, IF ANY, FOR THE USE OF THE Co-op SITES OUT OF WHICH SUCH LIABILITY ALLEGEDLY ARISES.
