11. Governing Law, Venue, and Jurisdiction.

This Agreement and all claims arising from or related to your use of the Application will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, except California's conflict of law rules. This Agreement and the Application will not be governed by the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods, if applicable.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, we may seek injunctive or other equitable relief from any court of competent jurisdiction.

Regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, you must file any claim or action related to use of the Application or this Agreement within one year after such claim or action accrued. Otherwise, you will waive the claim or action.

12. Disputes; Arbitration

If you have any dispute with or claim against us or any of our affiliates (a "Claim") arising out of or relating to the Application or this Agreement, and the claim is not resolved by calling our customer service department at (877)4-SHOWTIME ((877)474-6984), you and we each agree to resolve such disputes through an individual binding arbitration or an individual action in small claims court. Class arbitrations and class actions are not permitted, and your Claim may not be consolidated with any other person's claim. You and we agree that the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this provision, and that you and we are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action. This Section 12 shall survive termination of this Agreement or any subscription that you may have to receive Content.

Before you commence an arbitration or file a small claims court action with respect to your Claim, you must first send to Showtime Networks a written notice of your claim ("Notice"). The Notice must (1) be sent by certified mail; (2) be addressed to: Showtime Networks Inc., 1633 Broadway, New York, NY 10019, Attn: Legal Department; (3) describe the nature of your Claim; and (4) specify the damages or other relief you seek. If we and you do not then resolve the Claim within 30 days after our receipt of your Notice is received, either you or we may commence an arbitration or file a small claims court action to resolve the Claim.

Any such arbitration shall be administered by the American Arbitration Association and be conducted in accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules, including the Consumer-Related Disputes Supplementary Procedures, if applicable (the "Rules"). Contact information for the American Arbitration Association, as well as copies of the Rules and applicable forms, are available at www.adr.org. In circumstances in which the Rules provide for an in-person hearing, such hearing will, at your request, take place in the U.S. county (or parish) of your residence, or otherwise in Los Angeles, California. For any non-frivolous Claim that does not exceed $50,000, Showtime Networks will pay all costs of the arbitration, and reimburse any filing fees you may be required to pay. If the arbitrator awards you damages that are greater than Showtime Networks' last written settlement offer communicated before commencement of the arbitration, Showtime Networks will pay you the greater of $1,000 or the amount of the award.

13. Miscellaneous.

This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to its subject matter and supersedes any prior oral or written agreements, provided, however, that this Agreement will coexist with the Showtime Networks Terms and any Additional Terms.

If any part of this Agreement is determined to be invalid or unenforceable under applicable law, that provision will be removed, and the remainder of the Agreement will continue to be valid and enforceable, except as expressly stated. Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision in this Agreement will not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. Except as otherwise required by law, the controlling language of this Agreement is English. This Agreement will be binding upon and will inure to the benefit of the parties, their successors and permitted assigns.
