LAW, AND EQUITABLE CLAIMS) BETWEEN CUSTOMER AND RWS arising from or
relating to this agreement, its interpretation, or the breach,

INTENTIONAL TORT AND EQUITABLE CLAIMS) BETWEEN CUSTOMER AND RWS, its
agents, employees, principals, successors, assigns, affiliates
(collectively for purposes of this paragraph, “RWS”) arising from or
relating to this Agreement, its interpretation, or the breach,
termination or validity thereof, the relationships which result from
this Agreement (including, to the full extent permitted by applicable
law, relationships with third parties who are not signatories to this
Agreement), RWS’s advertising, or any related purchase SHALL BE RESOLVED
EXCLUSIVELY AND FINALLY BY BINDING ARBITRATION ADMINISTERED BY THE
NATIONAL ARBITRATION FORUM (NAF) under its Code of Procedure then in
effect (available via the Internet at <a href="http://www.arb-forum.com/[…]/a>
or via telephone at 1-800-474-2371). In the event of any inconsistency
or conflict between NAF Code of Procedure and this Agreement, this
Agreement shall control. The arbitration will be limited solely to the
dispute or controversy between customer and RWS. NEITHER CUSTOMER NOR RWS
SHALL BE ENTITLED TO JOIN OR CONSOLIDATE CLAIMS BY OR AGAINST OTHER
CUSTOMERS, OR ARBITRATE ANY CLAIM AS A REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS ACTION
OR IN A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL CAPACITY. The individual (non-class)

arbitration agreement, and if found unenforceable, the entire
arbitration provision shall not be enforced. This transaction involves
interstate commerce, and this provision shall be governed by the
Federal Arbitration Act 9 U.S.C. sec. 1-16 (FAA). Any award of the
arbitrator(s) shall be final and binding on each of the parties, and
may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. RWS
will be responsible for paying any arbitration fees to the extent such
fees exceed the amount of the filing fee for initiating a claim in the
small claims or similar court in the state in which you reside. Each
party shall pay for its own costs and attorneys’ fees, if any. However,
if any customer prevails on any claim that affords the prevailing party
attorneys’ fees, or if there is a written agreement providing for fees,
the Arbitrator may award reasonable fees to the prevailing party, under
the standards for fee shifting provided by law. Information may be
obtained and claims may be filed with the NAF at P.O. Box 50191,
Minneapolis, MN 55405.</p>

out of or relating to this Agreement, RWS’s advertising, or any related
purchase (a “Dispute”) through face to face negotiation with persons
fully authorized to resolve the Dispute or through mediation utilizing
a mutually agreeable mediator, rather than through litigation. If the
parties are unable to resolve the Dispute through negotiation or
mediation within a reasonable time after written notice from one party
to the other that a Dispute exists, the Dispute will be settled by
binding arbitration in accordance with the then current CPR Rules for
Non-Administered Arbitration. The Arbitration will be conducted before

arbitrator, who shall be the presiding arbitrator. The arbitration
hearing shall take place in St. Petersburg, FL and will be governed by
the United States Federal Arbitration Act to the exclusion of any
inconsistent state laws. The arbitrators shall base their award on the
terms of this Agreement, and will follow the law and judicial
precedents that a United States District Judge would apply to the
Dispute. The arbitrators shall render their award in writing and will
include the findings of fact and conclusion of law upon which their
award is based. Judgment upon the arbitration award may be entered by
any court of competent jurisdiction. The existence or results of any
negotiation, mediation or arbitration will be treated as confidential.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party will have the right to
obtain from a court of competent jurisdiction a temporary restraining
order, preliminary injunction or other equitable relief to preserve the
status quo or prevent irreparable harm, although the merits of the
underlying Dispute will be resolved in accordance with this paragraph.</p>
<p>Independent
Contractors. No provision of this Agreement will or shall be deemed to
create a partnership, joint venture or other combination between RWS and
you. You and RWS are independent contractors. Neither party will make
any warranties or representations or assume any obligations on the
other party’s behalf. Neither party is nor will claim to be a legal
representative, partner, franchisee, agent or employee of the other
party. Each party is responsible for the amounts it incurs arising from
this Agreement and for the direction and compensation, and is liable
for the actions of, its employees and subcontractors.</p>
