15. BINDING ARBITRATION

A. Dispute Resolution and Binding Arbitration

Any dispute arising from, based upon, related to or in any way connected to this Agreement and the parties to this Agreement, shall be resolved by arbitration before a single arbitrator. Arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with California Code of Civil Procedure section 1280 et. seq. The Parties agree that the venue for the arbitration shall be in Los Angeles, California. The Parties unequivocally and without reservation waive any and all right object to personal and subject matter jurisdiction of California. All arbitration-related hearings and all depositions, if any, shall be conducted in Los Angeles, CA. The arbitrator shall be from the Southern California area and the arbitrator will be selected by the mutual agreement of the Parties and/or their respective counsel. If the Parties cannot agree on a single arbitrator, then each Party shall propose three (3) potential arbitrators to the Superior Court of California in Los Angeles - Northwest District (Van Nuys, Ca.) as part of a Petition to the Court that shall be filed jointly by the Parties for the purpose of resolving the sole issue of arbitrator selection. The Superior Court will select the single arbitrator from the potential arbitrators proposed by the Parties. Once selected, the Arbitrator shall be empowered to hear and resolve any and all issues related to the dispute. The Arbitrator shall issue rulings, decisions, orders, judgments and permanent injunctions, without prejudicing a party's right to seek an injunction of any kind from a court of competent jurisdiction as applicable and appropriate. The arbitrator shall award the prevailing party all reasonable attorneys fees and actual costs. If a party to this agreement, after providing in writing 5 calendar days written notice of a request to arbitrate a dispute and said request is either ignored or rejected, then the party who files a petition or motion to compel arbitration and prevails in said motion, shall be entitled to an interim award of reasonable attorneys fees and costs incurred in demanding the arbitration and incurred in the filing, reply to an opposition and appearing at the hearing on said motion.

B. Arbitration Notice; Process

A Party who intends to seek arbitration must first send a written notice of the dispute to the other, by certified mail or Federal Express (signature required), or in the event that We do not have a physical address on file for you, by electronic mail ("Notice"). Our address for Notice is: PDFClipper, Inc., Attention: Legal, 76839 ABBY COURT PALM DESERT CA 92211. The Notice must (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) set forth the specific relief sought ("Demand"). We agree to use good faith efforts to resolve the claim directly, but if we do not reach an agreement to do so within 30 days after the Notice is received, you or us may commence an arbitration proceeding.

C. Class Actions

You specifically agree that any claim or cause of action you may have arising out of this Agreement will be brought only in your individual capacity. You agree and acknowledge that you will not be a party, class member, or representative of any class action proceedings against us. Also, an arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.

D. Time Limit to File Claims

Any claim or cause of action relating to or pertaining to this Agreement must be arbitrated as set out above within one (1) year of the occurrence giving rise to the claim or cause of action. This time limitation applies to all terms and conditions set out in this Agreement. All claims or causes of action not initiated within the time restriction as set forth in this Section 15(D) are permanently barred.
