Customer acknowledges and agrees that it is waiving the right to sue or go to court to secure relief. The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to all disputes between AHB Tooling & Machinery and Customer, including any disputes relating to or arising from any purchases made by Customer.

There is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is limited. However, an arbitrator can award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court (including injunctive and declaratory relief or statutory damages).

To begin an arbitration proceeding, Customer must send a letter requesting arbitration and describing its claim to AHB Tooling & Machinery. The arbitration will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its rules, including the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes if applicable.

Payment for all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA’s rules.

Under the terms of AAA Rule 7 of the AAA Rules, Customer and AHB Tooling & Machinery each agree that the arbitration panel has the power to rule on any objections to the existence, scope, or validity of the arbitration agreement or to the arbitrability of any claim. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration AHB Tooling & Machinery and Customer each waive any right to a jury trial and further agree that any such court proceedings will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated or representative action.

If any provision of this Section B, is held to be invalid or unenforceable, then that provision or portion notwithstanding, this Section B will remain in force and effect, and such provision or portion will be deemed omitted, and this Section B will be construed as if such provision had not been contained herein.

AHB Tooling & Machinery and Customer both agree that either party may bring suit in court to enjoin infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights.

C. FREIGHT POLICY

Prices, if stated, are F.O.B. origin, freight prepaid to destination specified in the order.
