10. Enforceability and Governing Law: In the event any of the terms or provisions of these Terms & Conditions shall be held to be unenforceable, the remaining terms and provisions shall be unimpaired and the unenforceable term or provision shall be replaced by such enforceable term or provision as comes closest to the intention underlying the unenforceable term or provision. These Terms & Conditions shall be subject to any other agreements you have entered into with eLayaway. This agreement and any Service provided hereunder will be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to any Delaware laws that would direct the choice of another state’s laws and, where applicable, to be governed by the federal laws of the United States. Subject to paragraph 11 (which provides for arbitration of claims between us to the maximum extent possible), you irrevocably and unconditionally consent to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal or state courts in the State of Florida for any dispute or litigation arising out of, or relating to, the use or purchase of any Service from eLayaway, and waive any objection to the laying of venue of any such litigation in the Leon County Florida courts and agree not to claim that such litigation brought therein has been brought in an inconvenient forum. In other words, if we have a dispute that results in a lawsuit, you agree to resolve it in the Leon County Florida court.
11. Arbitration: Both you and we agree that any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of, or relating to, any interpretation, construction, performance or breach of this Agreement or the Service shall be settled by confidential arbitration, in accordance with the American Arbitration Association’s (“AAA”) Commercial Arbitration Rules (including without limitation the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes) then in effect. The arbitrator may grant injunctions or other relief in such dispute or controversy. A single arbitrator with knowledge of electronic commerce will conduct the arbitration and the parties will mutually agree upon such arbitrator. In the event that the parties have not agreed on an arbitrator within thirty (30) days of the date of the notice of intention to arbitrate, the arbitrator will be selected by AAA from its list of commercial arbitrators. The arbitrator will conduct a single hearing no longer than one day in duration for the purpose of receiving evidence and will render a decision within fifteen days after the conclusion of the hearing. The decision of the arbitrator will be final, conclusive and binding on the parties to the arbitration. Judgment may be entered on the arbitrator’s decision in any state or federal court. Although the cost of the arbitrator will be borne by eLayaway, all other expenses of arbitration will be paid by the party who incurred them. These expenses are not part of our Service Guarantee. In addition to, and separate and apart from, the above agreement to arbitrate any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of, or relating to, any interpretation, construction, performance or breach of this Agreement or the Service, you also agree that you will not participate in any way in any class action in connection with any such dispute, controversy or claim, either as a class representative plaintiff or as a member of a putative class.
