All Notifications should meet the requirements of DMCA 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3) and include the following

Counter Notification
If you believe your own copyrighted material has been removed from the Site as a result of a mistake or
misidentification, you may submit a written counter notification to [us/our Designated Copyright Agent]
using the contact information provided below (a “Counter Notification”). To be an effective Counter
Notification under the DMCA, your Counter Notification must include substantially the following: (1)
identification of the material that has been removed or disabled and the location at which the material

activity related to the material in question. Please note that if you materially misrepresent that the disabled
or removed content was removed by mistake or misidentification, you may be liable for damages, including
costs and attorney’s fees. Filing a false Counter Notification constitutes perjury.

right to take appropriate legal action, including without limitation pursuing civil, criminal, and injunctive

GOVERNING LAW
These Terms of Use and your use of the Site are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws

DISPUTE RESOLUTION
Informal Negotiations
To expedite resolution and control the cost of any dispute, controversy, or claim related to these Terms of
Use (each a “Dispute” and collectively, the “Disputes”) brought by either you or us (individually, a “Party”
and collectively, the “Parties”), the Parties agree to first attempt to negotiate any Dispute (except those
Disputes expressly provided below) informally for at least one hundred twenty (120) days before initiating
arbitration. Such informal negotiations commence upon written notice from one Party to the other Party.
Binding Arbitration
If the Parties are unable to resolve a Dispute through informal negotiations, the Dispute (except those
Disputes expressly excluded below) will be finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration. YOU
UNDERSTAND THAT WITHOUT THIS PROVISION, YOU WOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT
AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL. The arbitration shall be commenced and conducted under the Commercial
Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) and, where appropriate, the AAA’s
Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (“AAA Consumer Rules”), both of which are
available at the AAA website www.adr.org. Your arbitration fees and your share of arbitrator compensation
shall be governed by the AAA Consumer Rules and, where appropriate, limited by the AAA Consumer
Rules. The arbitration may be conducted in person, through the submission of documents, by phone, or
online. The arbitrator will make a decision in writing, but need not provide a statement of reasons unless
requested by either Party. The arbitrator must follow applicable law, and any award may be challenged if
the arbitrator fails to do so. Except where otherwise required by the applicable AAA rules or applicable law,
the arbitration will take place in Virginia Beach County, Virginia. Except as otherwise provided herein, the
Parties may litigate in court to compel arbitration, stay proceedings pending arbitration, or to confirm,
modify, vacate, or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator.
If for any reason, a Dispute proceeds in court rather than arbitration, the Dispute shall be commenced or
prosecuted in the state and federal courts located in Virginia Beach County, Virginia, and the Parties
hereby consent to, and waive all defenses of lack of personal jurisdiction, and forum non conveniens with
respect to venue and jurisdiction in such state and federal courts. Application of the United Nations
Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods and the the Uniform Computer Information
Transaction Act (UCITA) are excluded from these Terms of Use.
In no event shall any Dispute brought by either Party related in any way to the Site be commenced more
than one (1) years after the cause of action arose. If this provision is found to be illegal or unenforceable,
then neither Party will elect to arbitrate any Dispute falling within that portion of this provision found to be
illegal or unenforceable and such Dispute shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction within the
courts listed for jurisdiction above, and the Parties agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.
Restrictions
The Parties agree that any arbitration shall be limited to the Dispute between the Parties individually. To the
full extent permitted by law, (a) no arbitration shall be joined with any other proceeding; (b) there is no right
or authority for any Dispute to be arbitrated on a classaction
basis or to utilize class action procedures;
and (c) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be brought in a purported representative capacity on
behalf of the general public or any other persons.
Exceptions to Informal Negotiations and Arbitration
The Parties agree that the following Disputes are not subject to the above provisions concerning informal
negotiations and binding arbitration: (a) any Disputes seeking to enforce or protect, or concerning the
validity of, any of the intellectual property rights of a Party; (b) any Dispute related to, or arising from,
allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use; and (c) any claim for injunctive relief. If
this provision is found to be illegal or unenforceable, then neither Party will elect to arbitrate any Dispute
falling within that portion of this provision found to be illegal or unenforceable and such Dispute shall be
decided by a court of competent jurisdiction within the courts listed for jurisdiction above, and the Parties
agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.

including descriptions, pricing, availability, and various other information. We reserve the right to correct

at which the complaining party may be contacted; (5) a statement that the complaining party has a good
faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its
agent, or the law; and (6) a statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty

Counter Notification
If you believe your own copyrighted material has been removed from the Site as a result of a mistake or
misidentification, you may submit a written counter notification to [us/our Designated Copyright Agent]
using the contact information provided below (a “Counter Notification”). To be an effective Counter
Notification under the DMCA, your Counter Notification must include substantially the following: (1)
identification of the material that has been removed or disabled and the location at which the material

restore your removed or disabled material, unless we first receive notice from the party filing the
Notification informing us that such party has filed a court action to restrain you from engaging in infringing
activity related to the material in question. Please note that if you materially misrepresent that the disabled
or removed content was removed by mistake or misidentification, you may be liable for damages, including
costs and attorney’s fees. Filing a false Counter Notification constitutes perjury.

To expedite resolution and control the cost of any dispute, controversy, or claim related to these Terms of

Rules. The arbitration may be conducted in person, through the submission of documents, by phone, or
online. The arbitrator will make a decision in writing, but need not provide a statement of reasons unless
requested by either Party. The arbitrator must follow applicable law, and any award may be challenged if
the arbitrator fails to do so. Except where otherwise required by the applicable AAA rules or applicable law,
the arbitration will take place in Virginia Beach County, Virginia. Except as otherwise provided herein, the
Parties may litigate in court to compel arbitration, stay proceedings pending arbitration, or to confirm,
modify, vacate, or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator.
If for any reason, a Dispute proceeds in court rather than arbitration, the Dispute shall be commenced or
prosecuted in the state and federal courts located in Virginia Beach County, Virginia, and the Parties
hereby consent to, and waive all defenses of lack of personal jurisdiction, and forum non conveniens with
respect to venue and jurisdiction in such state and federal courts. Application of the United Nations
Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods and the the Uniform Computer Information
Transaction Act (UCITA) are excluded from these Terms of Use.
In no event shall any Dispute brought by either Party related in any way to the Site be commenced more
than one (1) years after the cause of action arose. If this provision is found to be illegal or unenforceable,
then neither Party will elect to arbitrate any Dispute falling within that portion of this provision found to be
illegal or unenforceable and such Dispute shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction within the
courts listed for jurisdiction above, and the Parties agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.
Restrictions
The Parties agree that any arbitration shall be limited to the Dispute between the Parties individually. To the
full extent permitted by law, (a) no arbitration shall be joined with any other proceeding; (b) there is no right
or authority for any Dispute to be arbitrated on a classaction
basis or to utilize class action procedures;
and (c) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be brought in a purported representative capacity on
behalf of the general public or any other persons.
Exceptions to Informal Negotiations and Arbitration
The Parties agree that the following Disputes are not subject to the above provisions concerning informal
negotiations and binding arbitration: (a) any Disputes seeking to enforce or protect, or concerning the
validity of, any of the intellectual property rights of a Party; (b) any Dispute related to, or arising from,
allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use; and (c) any claim for injunctive relief. If
this provision is found to be illegal or unenforceable, then neither Party will elect to arbitrate any Dispute
falling within that portion of this provision found to be illegal or unenforceable and such Dispute shall be
decided by a court of competent jurisdiction within the courts listed for jurisdiction above, and the Parties
agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.
