Mediation

In the event of any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the breach thereof, the parties agree to first attempt to resolve such dispute by non-binding mediation, which shall be conducted under the then current mediation procedures of a Christian Dispute Resolution Service (such as Peacemaker Ministries) selected by us. The parties further agree that their respective good faith participation in mediation is a condition precedent to pursuing any other available legal or equitable remedy, including litigation, arbitration or other dispute resolution procedures.

Either party may commence the mediation process by providing to the other party written notice, setting forth the subject of the dispute, claim or controversy and the relief requested. Within ten (10) days after the receipt of the foregoing notice, the other party shall deliver a written response to the initiating party’s notice. The initial mediation session shall be held within thirty (30) days after the initial notice. The parties agree to share equally the costs and expenses of the mediation (which shall not include the expenses incurred by each party for its own legal representation in connection with the mediation).

The provisions of this section may be enforced by any Court of competent jurisdiction, and the party seeking enforcement shall be entitled to an award of all costs, fees and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, to be paid by the party against whom enforcement is ordered.

Arbitration:

Any controversy or claim arising out of, or relating to, these Terms or the breach thereof, that the parties have first failed to resolve through mediation shall be resolved by binding arbitration, conducted by American Arbitration Association (or similar organization selected by us). Judgment upon the award rendered may be entered in any Court having jurisdiction thereof. Any award concurred in by a majority of the arbitrators or rendered by the sole arbitrator (as the case may be) shall be binding and conclusive on the parties; and a judgment thereon may be entered in the highest court of the forum having jurisdiction thereof.
