DISPUTE RESOLUTION. Please read the following arbitration agreement carefully (the “Arbitration Agreement”). It requires you to arbitrate disputes with SAM Medical and limits the ways in which you can seek relief from SAM Medical.

a. Applicability of Arbitration Agreement. You agree that any dispute or claim relating in any way to your access or use of this website, to any products sold or distributed through the website, or to any aspect of your consumer relationship with SAM Medical, will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court, except that (1) you may assert claims in small claims court if your claims qualify, so long as the matter remains in such court and advances only on an individual (non-class, non-representative) basis; and (2) you or SAM Medical may seek equitable relief in court for infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights (such as trademarks, trade dress, domain names, trade secrets, copyrights, and patents). THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT SHALL APPLY, WITHOUT LIMITATION, TO ALL CLAIMS THAT AROSE OR WERE ASSERTED BEFORE THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OR ANY PRIOR VERSION OF THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS. 

IF YOU AGREE TO ARBITRATION WITH SAM MEDICAL, YOU ARE AGREEING IN ADVANCE THAT YOU WILL NOT PARTICIPATE IN OR SEEK TO RECOVER MONETARY OR OTHER RELIEF IN ANY LAWSUIT FILED AGAINST SAM MEDICAL ALLEGING CLASS, COLLECTIVE, AND/OR REPRESENTATIVE CLAIMS ON YOUR BEHALF. INSTEAD, BY AGREEING TO ARBITRATION, YOU MAY BRING YOUR CLAIMS AGAINST THE COMPANY IN AN INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION PROCEEDING. IF SUCCESSFUL ON SUCH CLAIMS, YOU COULD BE AWARDED MONEY OR OTHER RELIEF BY AN ARBITRATOR. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU HAVE BEEN ADVISED THAT YOU MAY CONSULT WITH AN ATTORNEY IN DECIDING WHETHER TO ACCEPT THIS THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS, INCLUDING THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT.

b. Arbitration Rules and Forum. The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Arbitration Agreement. To begin an arbitration proceeding, you must send a letter requesting arbitration and describing your claim and the relief sought to our registered agent at The Seaberg Company, Inc. d/b/a SAM Medical Products, c/o Larry D. Moomaw, 4145 SW Watson Ave., Ste. #515, Beaverton, OR 97005. The arbitration will be conducted by the Arbitration Service of Portland (“ASP”), an established alternative dispute resolution provider. Disputes shall be subject to ASP’s Procedural Rules available for review at http://www.arbserve.com/pages/proceduralrules14.htm (the “Rules”). The Rules are also available at www.arbserve.com or by calling ASP at 800-423-1216. If ASP is not available to arbitrate, the parties will select an alternative arbitral forum. If the arbitrator finds that you cannot afford to pay ASP’s filing, administrative, hearing, and/or other fees and cannot obtain a waiver from ASP, SAM Medical will pay them for you. You may choose to have the arbitration conducted by telephone, based on written submissions, or in person in the country where you live or at another mutually agreed location. Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

c. Authority of Arbitrator. The arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court or agency shall have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute related to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of this Arbitration Agreement including, but not limited to, any claim that all or any part of this Arbitration Agreement is void or voidable. The arbitration will decide the rights and liabilities, if any, of you and SAM Medical. The arbitration proceeding will not be consolidated with any other matters or joined with any other cases or parties. The arbitrator shall have the authority to grant motions dispositive of all or part of any claim. The arbitrator shall have the authority to award monetary damages and to grant any non-monetary remedy or relief available to an individual under applicable law, the arbitral forum’s rules, and the Terms and Conditions (including the Arbitration Agreement). The arbitrator shall issue a written award and statement of decision describing the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based, including the calculation of any damages awarded. The arbitrator has the same authority to award relief on an individual basis that a judge in a court of law would have. The award of the arbitrator is final and binding upon you and us.

d. Waiver of Jury Trial. YOU AND SAM MEDICAL HEREBY WAIVE ANY CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR A JURY. You and SAM Medical are instead electing that all claims and disputes shall be resolved by arbitration under this Arbitration Agreement, except as specified in Section (a) above. An arbitrator can award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court and must follow these Terms and Conditions as a court would. However, there is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is subject to very limited review.

e. Waiver of Class or Consolidated Actions. YOU AND SAM MEDICAL AGREE TO WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO RESOLVE CLAIMS WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT ON A CLASS, COLLECTIVE, OR REPRESENTATIVE BASIS. ALL CLAIMS AND DISPUTES WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT MUST BE ARBITRATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE BASIS. ONLY INDIVIDUAL RELIEF IS AVAILABLE, AND CLAIMS OF MORE THAN ONE CUSTOMER OR USER CANNOT BE ARBITRATED OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANY OTHER CUSTOMER OR USER. If this paragraph is deemed invalid or unenforceable neither you nor we are entitled to arbitration and instead disputes shall be resolved in a court as set forth in Section (a) above.
