21. Dispute Resolution; Arbitration

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION 21 CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT REQUIRES YOU TO ARBITRATE CERTAIN DISPUTES WITH COINSTAR AND LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM COINSTAR.

21.1. Binding Arbitration. Except for disputes in which either party seeks to bring an individual action in small claims court or seeks injunctive or other equitable relief for the alleged unlawful use of copyrights, trademarks, trade names, logos, trade secrets or patents, you and Coinstar agree: (a) to waive your and Coinstar’s right to have any and all disputes arising from or connected to these Terms and/or the Services (collectively, “Disputes”) resolved in a court; and (b) to waive your and Coinstar’s right to a jury trial. Instead, you and Coinstar agree to arbitrate Disputes through binding arbitration (which is the referral of a Dispute to one or more persons charged with reviewing the Dispute and making a final and binding determination to resolve it instead of having the Dispute decided by a judge or jury in court).

21.2. No Class Arbitrations, Class Actions or Representative Actions. YOU AND COINSTAR AGREE THAT DISPUTES ARE PERSONAL TO YOU AND COINSTAR, AND THAT DISPUTES WILL BE RESOLVED SOLELY THROUGH INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION AND WILL NOT BE BROUGHT AS A CLASS ARBITRATION, CLASS ACTION OR ANY OTHER TYPE OF REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. YOU AND COINSTAR AGREE THAT A DISPUTE CANNOT BE BROUGHT AS A CLASS OR OTHER TYPE OF REPRESENTATIVE ACTION, WHETHER WITHIN OR OUTSIDE OF ARBITRATION, OR ON BEHALF OF ANY OTHER INDIVIDUAL OR GROUP OF INDIVIDUALS.

21.3. Federal Arbitration Act. You and Coinstar agree that these Terms affect interstate commerce and that the enforceability of this Section 21 shall be governed by, construed and enforced, both substantively and procedurally, by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq. (the “FAA”) to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.

21.4. Process. YOU AND COINSTAR AGREE THAT WE WILL NOTIFY EACH OTHER IN WRITING OF ANY DISPUTE WITHIN THIRTY (30) DAYS OF WHEN IT ARISES SO THAT WE CAN ATTEMPT IN GOOD FAITH TO RESOLVE THE DISPUTE INFORMALLY. Notice to Coinstar shall be sent by certified mail or courier to Coinstar, LLC, Attn: General Counsel, 301 116th Ave SE, Suite 302, Bellevue, WA 98004, USA. Your notice must include: (a) your name and contact information; (b) a description of the nature or basis of the Dispute; and (c) the specific relief that you are seeking. If you and Coinstar cannot agree to resolve the Dispute within thirty (30) days of Coinstar receiving your notice, then either you or we may, as appropriate pursuant to this Section 21, commence an arbitration proceeding or file a claim in court. YOU AND COINSTAR AGREE THAT ANY ARBITRATION OR CLAIM MUST BE COMMENCED OR FILED WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE DISPUTE ARISE; OTHERWISE, YOU AND COINSTAR AGREE THAT THE CLAIM IS PERMANENTLY BARRED (WHICH MEANS THAT YOU WILL NO LONGER HAVE THE RIGHT TO ASSERT A CLAIM REGARDING THE DISPUTE). You and Coinstar agree that (1) any arbitration will occur in King County, Washington, which you may attend either in person or via videoconference or telephone; (2) arbitration will be conducted confidentially by a single arbitrator in accordance with the rules of JAMS; and (3) the state or federal courts in King County, Washington will have exclusive jurisdiction over any appeals and the enforcement of an arbitration award and over any Dispute between the parties that is not subject to arbitration; provided, however, that small claims courts in the jurisdiction in which you reside will have jurisdiction over small claims disputes.

21.5. Authority of Arbitrator. As limited by the FAA, these Terms and the applicable JAMS rules, the arbitrator will have (a) the exclusive authority and jurisdiction to make all procedural and substantive decisions regarding a Dispute and (b) the authority to grant any remedy that would otherwise be available in court. The arbitrator may only conduct an individual arbitration and may not consolidate more than one individual’s claims, preside over any type of class or representative proceeding or preside over any proceeding involving more than one individual.

21.6. Rules of JAMS. The rules of JAMS and additional information about JAMS are available on the JAMS website. By agreeing to be bound by these Terms, you either (a) acknowledge and agree that you have read and understand the rules of JAMS or (b) waive your opportunity to read the rules of JAMS and any claim that the rules of JAMS are unfair or should not apply for any reason.

21.7. Severability. If any provision of this Section 21 is held invalid or unenforceable, it will be so held to the minimum extent required by law and all other provisions will remain valid and enforceable. Further, the waivers set forth in Section 21.2 are severable from the other provisions of these Terms and will remain valid and enforceable except as prohibited by applicable law.

21.8. Changes. Notwithstanding the modification-related provisions in these Terms, if we revise the dispute resolution provisions of the Terms, you may reject any such change within thirty (30) days of the date such change becomes effective by providing Coinstar with written notice of such rejection by writing to: Coinstar, LLC, Attn: General Counsel, 301 116th Ave SE, Suite 302, Bellevue, WA 98004, USA. In order to be effective, the notice must include your full name and clearly indicate your intent to reject changes to this Section 21. By rejecting changes, you are agreeing to resolve disputes in accordance with the last version of the Terms you accepted.
