Governing Law
These Terms and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with them (including non-contractual disputes or claims) shall exclusively be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Indiana, without regard to its conflict of law provisions.
Dispute Resolution
If a dispute arises from or relates to this contract or the breach thereof, and if the dispute cannot be settled through direct discussions, the parties agree to endeavor first to settle the dispute by mediation administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Commercial Mediation Procedures before resorting to arbitration.
Arbitration: The parties further agree that any unresolved controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this contract, or breach thereof, shall be settled by arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association in accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules. Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.
Location and Governing Law: The place of arbitration shall exclusively be within Hamilton County, Indiana, and the arbitration shall be exclusively governed by the laws of the State of Indiana.
Dispute Amount: If the dispute is less than $100,000.00, there shall be no discovery other than the exchange of documents. If the dispute is equal to or over $100,000.00, discovery shall consist of no more than two depositions of sixty minutes or less.
Electronic Information Exchange: In making determinations regarding the scope of exchange of electronic information, the arbitrator(s) and the parties agree to be guided by The Sedona Principles, Third Edition: Best Practices, Recommendations & Principles for Addressing Electronic Document Production.
Arbitration Procedure: The arbitration will be based on the submission of documents, and there shall be no in-person or oral hearing.

Waiver: The parties agree that failure or refusal of a party to pay its required share of the deposits for arbitrator compensation or administrative charges shall constitute a waiver by that party to present evidence or cross-examine witnesses. In such event, the other party shall be required to present evidence and legal argument as the arbitrator(s) may require for the making of an award. Such waiver shall not allow for a default judgment against the non-paying party in the absence of evidence presented as provided for above.
