Any and all disputes or controversies arising under or relating to the interpretation or application of the provisions of the Terms or any extension or modification thereof, or the asserted breach thereof by any Party, shall be resolved through final and binding arbitration, as follows:

The Parties agree to mediate any dispute arising under these Terms. In the event of any such dispute, the Parties, within thirty (30) days of a written request for mediation, shall attend a mediation to be conducted in New York City, New York in order to make a good faith reasonable effort to resolve such dispute. The Parties shall attempt, in good faith, to agree to a mediator. If the Parties are unable to agree to a mediator, the Parties shall submit the matter to an alternative dispute resolution provider located in New York City, New York to appoint a mediator and conduct the mediation. If this good faith mediation effort fails to resolve the dispute arising under these Terms, then the matter shall be resolved through final and binding arbitration in New York City, New York, by a single arbitrator to be chosen by the American Arbitration Association under its Commercial Arbitration Rules, said proceedings commenced by either Party. Any arbitrator so appointed shall be empowered to, in addition to awarding actual money damages (but not punitive damages) against the Party found to have violated these Terms, grant in his award, injunctive or other types of equitable relief, to enforce specific performance of these Terms, and to prevent any continuing or further violation of its terms. Judgment upon the award rendered in such arbitration may be entered in any court having jurisdiction there. The cost of such arbitration shall be borne equally by the Parties, except that each Party shall be responsible for its own attorneys’ fees. The Parties each waive personal service of process and consent that service of process upon either Party may be made by certified mail or registered mail, return receipt required, directed to the Party’s address, and service so made shall be deemed completed five (5) days after the same shall have been so mailed.

16. Severability

If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the invalid or unenforceable provision shall be deemed superseded by a valid and enforceable provision that most closely matches the intent of the original provision, and the remaining provisions of these Terms shall continue in full force and effect.

17. Entire Agreement

These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and Outsiders concerning your participation in the Event and supersede all prior agreements, understandings, and representations concerning the Event.
