AND HEREBY AGREE THAT ANY SUCH COURT SHALL BE A PROPER FORUM FOR THE DETERMINATION OF ANY DISPUTE ARISING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT. 
23.  Dispute Resolution. IT IS IMPORTANT THAT ALL USERS READ THIS ENTIRE SECTION CAREFULLY. THIS SECTION PROVIDES FOR RESOLUTION OF DISPUTES THROUGH FINAL AND BINDING ARBITRATION BEFORE A NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR INSTEAD OF IN A COURT BY A JUDGE OR JURY OR THROUGH A CLASS ACTION. THIS SECTION 23 DOES NOT APPLY, HOWEVER, TO CCC SEEKING TO COLLECT RETURNED CHECKS AND CHARGEBACKS UNDER SECTION 4 OF THIS AGREEMENT. 
                a.            Time Limitation to Bring Claims and Disputes. YOU AGREE THAT ANY CLAIM OR DISPUTE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT MUST BE BROUGHT WITHIN ONE YEAR AFTER THE DATE THE BASIS FOR THE CLAIM OR DISPUTE FIRST ARISES, WHETHER KNOWN OR UNKNOWN AT THAT TIME. THIS TIME LIMITATION APPLIES TO ALL MATTERS SUBMITTED TO A COURT OR ARBITRATION. 
    b.        Small Claims Court and Binding Arbitration. You agree to resolve all claims of $5,000.00 or less in a small claims court located in South Jordan, Utah, U.S.A. (In the case of court action, you agree to pay all court costs and reasonable attorney fees incurred by CCC necessary to enforce its rights under this Agreement.) All other disputes arising out of or related to this Agreement (whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal or equitable theory) must be resolved by final and binding arbitration. This includes any dispute based on any product, service, or advertising having a connection with this Agreement and any dispute not finally resolved by a small claims court. The arbitration will be conducted by one arbitrator using the procedures described below. If any portion of this Dispute Resolution section is determined to be unenforceable, then the remainder shall be given full force and effect. 
    c.         Rules of Arbitration. The arbitration of any dispute involving more than $5,000.00 shall be conducted in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"), as modified by this Agreement, which are in effect on the date a dispute is submitted to the AAA. At your expense, you have the right to be represented by counsel in an arbitration. In conducting the arbitration and making any award, the arbitrator shall be bound by and strictly enforce the terms of this Agreement and may not limit, expand, or otherwise modify its terms. 
    d.        No Joiner Allowed. NO DISPUTE MAY BE JOINED WITH ANOTHER LAWSUIT OR IN AN ARBITRATION WITH A DISPUTE OF ANY OTHER PERSON OR BE RESOLVED ON A CLASS-WIDE BASIS. YOU WAIVE ANY CLAIMS FOR AN AWARD OF DAMAGES THAT ARE EXCLUDED UNDER THIS AGREEMENT. 
    e.        Duty to Attempt to Resolve Disputes. Before you take a dispute to arbitration or to small claims court, you must first contact CCC or write to CCC and give it an opportunity to resolve the dispute. If the dispute cannot be satisfactorily resolved within sixty days from the date you or CCC is notified by the other of a dispute, then either party may, as the case may be, file a small claims case or contact the AAA in writing at American Arbitration Association and request arbitration of the dispute. 
    f.         Arbitration Information and Filing Procedure. Information about the arbitration process and the AAAs Arbitration Rules and its fees are available from the AAA on the Internet at www.adr.org or by contacting CCC at coach@collegecoachesconnection.com. The arbitration shall be based only on the written submissions of the parties and the documents submitted to the AAA relating to the dispute, unless either party requests that the arbitration be conducted using the AAA’s telephonic, online, or in-person procedures. Any in-person arbitration will be conducted in Salt Lake City, Utah. Any arbitration shall remain confidential. Neither you nor CCC may disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration or award, except as may be required by law or to confirm and enforce an award. 
    g.        Fees and Expense of Arbitration. You must pay the applicable AAA filing fee when you submit your written request for arbitration to the AAA. The AAAs filing fee and administrative expenses for a document arbitration will be allocated according to the AAA’s Rules. If you elect an arbitration process other than a document (or desk) arbitration, you must pay your allocated share of any higher administrative fees and costs for the process you select. Unless applicable substantive law provides otherwise, each party will pay its own expenses to participate in the arbitration, including attorney’s fees and expenses for witnesses, document production, and presentation of evidence. The prevailing party may, however, seek to recover the AAAs fees and the expenses of the arbitrator from the other party.
    h.        Exceptions to Informal Dispute Resolution and Arbitration. The requirement of attempting to informally resolve the matter will not apply if: (i) the expiration of the statute of limitations for a cause of action is imminent or (ii) injunctive or other equitable relief is necessary to enjoin an ongoing injury or to mitigate damages. Further, the requirement that matters be submitted to arbitration shall not prohibit a party from seeking injunctive relief pending arbitration. Further, CCC may at its sole discretion discontinue a User’s membership, including, without limitation, a user’s instant messenger and chat use, and remove the User’s profile pending the resolution of any dispute with a User.
24.  Entire agreement. This Agreement, which incorporates the membership fees schedule and notices contained on the CCC Web Site, constitutes the entire agreement between CCC and you with respect to your use of the Web Site.
25.  Severability. If for any reason an arbitrator or a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of the Agreement, or portion thereof, to be unenforceable, that provision shall be enforced to the maximum extent permissible so as to effect the intent of the provision, and the remainder of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.
26.  Headings. The headings of the sections and their subsections contained in this Agreement are for the convenience of the reader only and do not modify the provisions of this Agreement. 
27.  Waiver. You agree that any waiver by CCC of any breach of this Agreement must be in writing and signed by an authorized agent of CCC and shall neither be a waiver of any subsequent breach nor of any underlying obligation.
28.  Binding Effect.  You agree that this Version P-1.01 of the Agreement is effective as of April 1, 2004. You also agree to be bound by this version and, if applicable, previous version of this Agreement no matter which entity currently owns or operates the CCC Web Site and no matter which entity collected your membership fees.
