Arbitration, Governing Law, Jurisdiction, and Costs

Agreement to Arbitrate: Better Linux, Inc. and You (“the Parties”) agree to resolve any dispute between the Parties, the Parties’ directors, officers, employees, or agents by submission to arbitration and not by a lawsuit, jury trial, or other court process except as state and federal law provides for judicial review of arbitration proceedings.

All Claims Must be Arbitrated: The Parties agree that all disputes with Us, Our directors, officers, employees, or agents, related or unrelated to the Software, including disputes as to whether a dispute is subject to arbitration, are also to be determined by submission to binding arbitration. The Parties agree that this arbitration will bind the Parties as to all claims.

Applicable Law and Procedures: Utah law governs this Agreement, including its arbitration language and any necessary arbitration, without regard to Utah's conflict or choice of law provisions. Utah will also be the physical/geographical forum for any necessary arbitration. A demand for arbitration must be communicated in writing to the Parties. The Parties must each select an arbitrator (party arbitrator) within thirty days of the written communication. The two party-selected arbitrators must together select a third arbitrator (neutral arbitrator) within thirty days thereafter. This neutral arbitrator will then be the sole arbitrator and will decide the arbitration. The Parties to the arbitration must each pay their pro rata share of the neutral arbitrator’s expenses and fees, together with other incurred and reasonable arbitrator-approved expenses, not including counsel fees, witness fees, or other expenses incurred by a party for that party’s own benefit.

General Provisions: A claim will be waived and forever barred if (1) on the date a written demand for arbitration is received, the claim, if asserted in a civil action, would be barred by the applicable legal statute of limitations, or (2) the claimant fails to pursue the arbitration claim in accordance with the procedures prescribed herein with reasonable diligence.

Severability

If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. All express and implied restrictions will remain in maximal effect as permitted by applicable law.

Entire Agreement

This Agreement, including any attachments hereto, constitutes the entire Agreement between the Parties regarding the Agreement’s subject matter. Any and all written or oral agreements existing between the Parties before now are expressly canceled. The Parties each acknowledge that they are not entering into this Agreement on the basis of, or with reliance on, any representations not expressly contained herein. Any modifications of this Agreement must be in writing and signed by both of the Parties.
