10 Disputes

The parties shall try to resolve all disputes that might arise out of this agreement in a spirit of cooperation without formal procedures.

Arbitration shall take place at the San Diego Mediation Center, located in San Diego County, State of California, or at a different location if the parties so agree. The arbitration will take place before an arbitration panel chosen as follows: The parties shall each choose an arbitrator, and the two arbitrators shall choose a third arbitrator and determine the third arbitrator's pay. Each party shall have one veto over the choice of the third arbitrator. The three arbitrators shall schedule an informal proceeding, hear the arguments, and decide the matter by secret majority vote. Unless the arbitrators decide otherwise, each party shall pay the costs of its own arbitrator, and shall pay half of the other costs of the arbitration proceeding. Each party shall have the right to have the proceedings transcribed. The arbitrators will not have the authority to award punitive damages or any other form of relief not contemplated in the contract. The majority of arbitrators shall render a written opinion setting forth the basis on which they arrived at the decision regarding each issue submitted to arbitration; the dissenting arbitrator, if any, shall not issue a dissenting opinion. Regarding each issue submitted to arbitration, the decision will be final and binding only to the extent it is accompanied by a written explanation of the basis upon which it was arrived at. Judgment upon the award, if any, rendered by the arbitrators may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. A Dispute shall be handled pursuant to the provisions of this paragraph whether it arises during the Term of this Agreement or thereafter.
Should any legal action permissible under this agreement be taken to enforce the conditions and terms of this agreement, in particular the right to collect money due on unpaid invoices, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover reasonable legal fees and expenses incurred at the trial and appellate levels.

11 Mediation

In the event a Dispute is not voluntarily resolved by the parties on their own, upon the demand of either party, the matter shall be submitted to mediation in San Diego, California, under the mediation rules of the American Arbitration Association. Each party shall bear its own costs in connection with such mediation and shall bear one-half of the costs incurred with the American Arbitration Association and the mediator in connection therewith. Mediation in accordance with the provisions of this paragraph shall be a condition precedent to a demand to arbitrate in accordance with the following paragraph.

12 Arbitration

Any Dispute which is not resolved pursuant to mediation shall, upon the demand of either party, be determined and settled by arbitration in San Diego, California, under California substantive law and the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association; provided however, the arbitrator shall follow the same rules of substantive law and the rules as to the application of such law to the facts as a California Trial Court Judge hearing the same matter would be bound to follow. The parties further agree that:

(a) Attorney Fees. The arbitrator shall include attorney fees and costs in the award to the prevailing party.

(b) Discovery. The parties shall be entitled to reasonable and necessary discovery, in accordance with the provisions of California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1283.05;

(c) Findings and Conclusions. The award shall include findings of fact and conclusions of law showing the legal and factual basis for the arbitrator's decision; and

(d) Errors of Law. The award may be entered by any court of competent jurisdiction but in connection with entry by the court shall be subject to review by such court with respect to errors of law (but not with respect to errors of fact). In the event such court shall find that there was a material error of law in the arbitration award, the court in the exercise of its discretion shall correct the award and enter it or return it to the arbitrator for reconsideration in accordance with the determinations of the court.

13 Force Majeure

Except for the payment of money, neither party will be liable for any failure or delay in performance under this Agreement which might be due, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, to any contingency, delay, failure, or cause of, any nature beyond the reasonable control of such party, including, without in any way limiting the generality of the foregoing, fire, explosion, earthquake, storm, flood or other weather, unavailability of necessary utilities or raw materials, strike, lockout, unavailability of components, activities of a combination of workmen or other labor difficulties, war, insurrection, riot, act of God or the public enemy, law, act, order, export control regulation, proclamation, decree, regulation, ordinance, or instructions of Government or other public authorities, or judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction (not arising out of breach by such party of this Agreement). In the event of the happening of such a cause, the party whose performance is so affected will give prompt, written notice to the other party, stating the period of time the same is expected to continue.

14 Termination

WebJuris, without cause, may terminate this Agreement by giving you 30 Days notice via e-mail or fax. In such event, WebJuris will be required to pay to you an amount equal to the unused and prorated portion of service excluding any setup charges. Notwithstanding the above, WebJuris may terminate the service under this Agreement at any time, without penalty, if you fail to comply with the terms of this Agreement.

WebJuris offers a 30-Day money back guarantee for its Promotion services. This guarantee excludes any setup fees or installation charges applied to WebJuris' services. WebJuris will not issue refunds or credits past the 30-day money back guarantee.

Order will automatically renew for successive periods unless the Order is earlier terminated in accordance with its terms, or either party gives written notice to the other party of non-renewal at least 30 days prior to expiration of the then-current term.

15 Fees and Payments

First payment shall be due upon receipt of Order. Services will commence on the Effective Date indicated in the Order and continue for the duration of the Initial Term. Thereafter, the Order will automatically renew for successive periods unless the Order is earlier terminated in accordance with its terms, or either party gives written notice to the other party of non-renewal at least 30 days prior to expiration of the then-current term. Any changes made to your Order (e.g. add-ons, extra traffic charges, additional server space, and additional e-mail accounts) shall be billed accordingly.

All orders are subject to acceptance by WebJuris. An Order will be deemed accepted by WebJuris when confirmation of the order is sent to you. WebJuris may refuse to accept any Order, or delay acceptance awaiting completion of conditions WebJuris may choose to exercise. Such refusal of such conditions may not be unreasonable, however, and WebJuris agrees to provide you with reasonable notice by Email or fax of any intent to delay or decline the acceptance of any order.

Any amounts payable to WebJuris not paid when due will bear interest at the rate of one and one half percent (1.5%) per month or the maximum rate permitted by applicable law, whichever is less. If WebJuris collects any payment due at law or through an attorney at law or under advice there from or through a collection agency, or if WebJuris prevails in any action to which the Customer and WebJuris are parties, Customer will pay all costs of collection, arbitration and litigation including, without limitation, all court costs and reasonable attorneys' fees. If any check is returned for insufficient funds, WebJuris may impose a processing charge of $25.

16 Additional Services.

Any services in addition to those specified in the WebJuris package description (as outlined on the WebJuris web site) are considered additional services and must be negotiated separately with pricing and conditions to be determined at that time. This includes but is not limited to providing text content beyond that used in code optimization, pay-per-click services and submission to paid inclusion sites. The terms of these additional services must be to the satisfaction of both WebJuris and the client in order for them to be considered part of the service contract.
