15. Dispute Resolution; Arbitration

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT REQUIRES YOU TO ARBITRATE CERTAIN DISPUTES AND CLAIMS WITH WAWI INC. AND LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM US. SPECIFICALLY, THE FOLLOWING SECTION MAY SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE OR PARTICIPATE IN A LAWSUIT FILED IN COURT.


15.1. Class Action and Collective Relief Waiver


YOU AND WAWI INC. ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW, EXCEPT AS SET OUT IN SECTION 15.6 BELOW, THERE SHALL BE NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED ON A CLASS, JOINT, COLLECTIVE OR CONSOLIDATED BASIS OR IN A
PURPORTED REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY ON BEHALF OF THE GENERAL PUBLIC (SUCH AS CLAIMS AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL OR FOR PUBLIC INJUNCTIVE RELIEF). EXCEPT AS SET OUT IN SECTION 18.8 BELOW, UNLESS BOTH
YOU AND WAWI, INC. OTHERWISE AGREE IN WRITING, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF ANY CLASS, JOINT, COLLECTIVE OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD RELIEF
(INCLUDING ANY DECLARATORY OR INJUNCTIVE RELIEF) ONLY IN FAVOR OF THE INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING RELIEF AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO RESOLVE AN INDIVIDUAL PARTY’S CLAIM. THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT AWARD RELIEF FOR OR AGAINST ANYONE WHO IS NOT A PARTY TO THE PROCEEDING.


This Class Action and Collective Relief Waiver and the provisions in Section 15.6 are an essential part of this "Dispute Resolution" section, and if it is deemed invalid or unenforceable with respect to a particular claim or dispute, neither you nor WAWI Inc. may arbitrate such claim or dispute. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a court or arbitrator (or where applicable, AAA) determine that either the Class Action and Collective Relief Waiver or the provisions in Section 15.6 are not enforceable as to a particular claim or request for relief and all appeals from that decision have been exhausted (or the decision is otherwise final), then the parties agree that that particular claim or request for relief may proceed in court but shall be severed and stayed pending arbitration of the remaining claims. This provision does not prevent you or WAWI Inc. from participating in a class-wide settlement of claims.


15.2. Federal Arbitration Act


You and WAWI Inc. agree that these Terms affect interstate commerce and that the enforceability of this Section 16 shall be both substantively and procedurally governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq. (the “FAA”), to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.


15.3. Notice; Informal Dispute Resolution


A dispute might arise between you and WAWI Inc.. If that happens, WAWI Inc. is committed to working with you to reach a reasonable resolution. For any issue or dispute that arises between you and WAWI Inc., both parties acknowledge and agree that they will first make a good-faith effort to resolve it informally before initiating any formal dispute resolution proceeding in arbitration or otherwise. This includes first sending a written description of the dispute to the other party. You and WAWI Inc. agree that each party will notify the other party in writing of any arbitrable or small claims Dispute within thirty (30) days of the date it arises, so that the parties can attempt in good faith to resolve the Dispute informally. Notice to WAWI Inc. shall be sent by certified mail or courier to WAWI Inc., PO BOX 6403, San Juan, PR 00914-6403. Your notice must include (a) your name, postal address, telephone number, the email address you use, if different, an email address at which you can be contacted, (b) a description in reasonable detail of the nature or basis of the Dispute, and (c) the specific relief that you are seeking. Our notice to you will be sent electronically in accordance with Section 3 and will include (x) our name, postal address, telephone number and an email address at which we can be contacted with respect to the Dispute, (y) a description in reasonable detail of the
nature or basis of the Dispute, and (z) the specific relief that we are seeking. If you and WAWI Inc. cannot agree how to resolve the Dispute within thirty (30) days after the date notice is received by the applicable party, then either you or WAWI Inc. may, as appropriate and in accordance with this Section 16, commence an arbitration proceeding or, to the extent specifically provided for in Section 16.1, file a claim in court.


The aforementioned informal dispute resolution process is a prerequisite and condition precedent to commencing any formal dispute resolution proceeding. The parties agree that any relevant limitations period and filing fee or other deadlines will be tolled while the parties engage in this informal dispute resolution process. Failure to engage in this process could result in the award of fees against you in arbitration.

 

15.4. Process


EXCEPT FOR DISPUTES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO A VIOLATION OF SECTION 10 OR 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 INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, COPYRIGHTS, TRADEMARKS, TRADE NAMES, LOGOS, TRADE SECRETS OR PATENTS, YOU AND WAWI INC. AGREE THAT ANY DISPUTE MUST BE COMMENCED OR FILED BY YOU OR WAWI INC. WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR OF THE DATE THE DISPUTE AROSE, OTHERWISE THE UNDERLYING CLAIM IS PERMANENTLY BARRED (WHICH MEANS THAT YOU AND BLUE APRON WILL NO LONGER HAVE THE RIGHT TO ASSERT SUCH CLAIM REGARDING THE DISPUTE). You and WAWI Inc. agree that (a) any arbitration will occur in the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, (b) arbitration will be conducted confidentially by a single arbitrator in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), which are hereby incorporated by reference, and (c) that the state or federal courts of the Puerto Rico and the United States, respectively, sitting in San Juan Puerto Rico, have exclusive jurisdiction over any appeals and the enforcement of an arbitration award. You may also litigate a Dispute in the small claims court located in the county of your billing address if the Dispute meets the requirements to be heard in small claims court.

 

15.5. Rules of AAA


If you and WAWI, Inc do not resolve a dispute by informal negotiation or in small claims court, the dispute shall be settled by binding arbitration before a neutral arbitrator whose decision will be final except for a limited right of appeal under the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act. YOU ARE GIVING UP THE RIGHT TO LITIGATE A DISPUTE IN COURT BEFORE A JUDGE OR JURY. Arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”) under its Commercial Arbitration Rules and its Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes. For more information, visit www.adr.org or, in the United States, call 800-778-7879. Arbitration may be conducted in person, through the submission of documents, by phone or online. The arbitrator may award damages to you individually as a court could, including declaratory or injunctive relief, but only to the extent required to satisfy your individual claim.


Unless the arbitrator finds the arbitration was frivolous or brought for an improper purpose, WAWI, Inc. will pay all filing, AAA, and arbitrator’s fees and expenses.


The arbitration will take place at a reasonable location convenient for all parties.

 

PROCEEDINGS TO RESOLVE OR LITIGATE A DISPUTE IN ANY FORUM WILL BE CONDUCTED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS. Neither you nor WAWI, Inc will seek to have a dispute heard as a class action, private attorney general action, or in any other proceeding in which either party acts or proposes to act in a representative capacity. No arbitration or proceeding can be combined with another without the prior written consent of all parties to the arbitration or proceeding. If the class action waiver is found to be illegal or unenforceable as to all or some parts of a dispute, those parts will be severed and proceed in a court of law, with the remaining parts proceeding in arbitration.

 

15.6. Authority of Arbitrator


As limited by these Terms and the applicable AAA rules, the arbitrator will have (a) the exclusive authority and jurisdiction to make all procedural and substantive decisions regarding a Dispute, including the determination of whether a Dispute is arbitrable, and (b) the authority to grant any remedy that would otherwise be available in court; provided, however, that the arbitrator does not have the authority to conduct a class arbitration or a representative action, which is prohibited by these Terms. The arbitrator's award of damages and/or other relief must be consistent with the terms of the section on "Limitation of Liability" (see Section 13 – above) as to the types and the amounts of damages or other relief for
which a party may be held liable. No arbitration award or decision will have any preclusive effect as to issues or claims in any dispute with anyone who is not a named party to the arbitration. 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.

 

15.7. Batch Arbitration


To increase the efficiency of administration and resolution of arbitrations, in the event 100 or more similar arbitration demands (those asserting the same or substantially similar facts, and seeking the same or substantially similar relief) presented by or with the assistance or coordination of the same law firm(s) or organization(s) are submitted to AAA (or another arbitration provider selected in
accordance with Section 15.5 if AAA is unavailable) against WAWI Inc. within reasonably close proximity, the arbitration provider shall (i) administer the arbitration demands in batches of 100 demands per batch (to the extent there are fewer than 100 arbitration demands left over after the batching described above, a final batch will consist of the remaining demands); (ii) designate one arbitrator for each batch; and (iii) provide for a single filing fee due per side per batch. Arbitrator selection for each batch shall be conducted to the greatest extent possible in accordance with the applicable AAA rules and procedures for such selection, and the arbitrator will determine the location where the proceedings will be conducted. You agree to cooperate in good faith with WAWI Inc. and the arbitration provider to implement such a “batch approach” or other similar approach to provide for an efficient resolution of claims, including the payment of single filing and administrative fees for batches of claims. This "Batch Arbitration" provision shall in
no way be interpreted as authorizing class arbitration of any kind. WAWI Inc. does
not agree or consent to class arbitration, private attorney general arbitration, or arbitration involving joint or consolidated claims under any circumstances, except as set forth in this section.

 

15.8. Severability


If any term, clause or provision of this Section is held invalid or unenforceable, it will be so held to the minimum extent required by law, and all other terms, clauses and provisions of this Section 16 will remain valid and enforceable. Further, the waivers set forth in Section 16.2 are severable from the other provisions of these Terms and will remain valid and enforceable, except as prohibited by applicable law.

 

15.9. Opt-Out Right


WAWI Inc.'s updates to these Terms do not provide you with a new opportunity to opt out of arbitration if you agreed to a previous version of the Terms and did not validly opt out of arbitration. WAWI Inc. would continue to honor any valid opt outs if you opted out of arbitration in a prior version of the Terms. To opt out, you must notify WAWI Inc. in writing no later than 30 days after first becoming subject to the Dispute Resolution provisions of these Terms. Your notice must include your full name, mailing address, a clear statement that you want to opt out of this Mutual Arbitration Agreement, and your original signature. The notice cannot be signed by your attorney, agent, or other representative, and you may only opt out on behalf of yourself individually. You must send your opt-out notice by U.S. Postal Service certified mail to: WAWI Inc., P.O. BOX 6403, Aan Juan, Puerto Rico 00914-6403.

 

15.10 Changes


WAWI Inc. will provide 30 days' notice of any changes to this "Dispute Resolution" section, but any such changes DO NOT apply to any individual claim(s) of which WAWI Inc. already has actual notice. If WAWI Inc. changes this "Dispute Resolution" section after the date you first accepted this Agreement (or accepted any subsequent changes to this Agreement), you agree that your continued use of the Platform or Services 30 days after such change will be deemed acceptance of those changes. If you do not agree to such a change, you may reject any such change by providing WAWI Inc. with written notice of such rejection by certified mail to: WAWI Inc., PO BOX 6403, San Juan, PR 00914-6403, within 30 days of the date such change became effective, as indicated in the "Effective" date above. To be effective, the notice must include your full name and clearly indicate your intent to reject changes to this "Dispute Resolution" section. If you reject changes pursuant to this paragraph and were already bound by an existing agreement to arbitrate disputes under a previous version of the Terms, then that existing arbitration agreement shall remain in full force and effect.
