DISPUTE RESOLUTION

YOU AGREE TO SUBMIT ANY DISPUTE RELATED TO YOUR USE OF THE WEBSITE TO BINDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION RATHER THAN PROCEED IN COURT. IF YOU WANT TO OPT-OUT OF THIS MANDATORY ARBITRATION AGREEMENT, THIS PROVISION DESCRIBES THE PROCEDURES YOU MUST FOLLOW TO DO SO.

For any problem or dispute that you may have with PMTDA, you acknowledge and agree that you will first give PMTDA an opportunity to resolve your problem or dispute by sending a written description of your problem or dispute to PMTDA at:

Nichols & Associates
4614 Southwest Kelly Avenue, Suite 200
Portland, Oregon 97239

You then agree to negotiate with PMTDA in good faith about your problem or dispute. If your problem or dispute is not resolved satisfactorily within sixty (60) days after PMTDA’s receipt of your written description of it, you agree to the further dispute resolution provisions below.

You agree that the sole and exclusive forum and remedy for any and all disputes and claims that cannot be resolved informally and that relate in any way to or arise out of your use of any of the Website and these Terms and Conditions of Use shall be final and binding arbitration, through the Arbitration Service of Portland, in accordance with its rules, except to the extent that you have in any manner infringed upon or violated or threatened to infringe upon or violate any of PMTDA’s or any third-party’s patent, copyright, trademark, trade secret, privacy or publicity rights, in which case you acknowledge that arbitration is not an adequate remedy at law and that injunctive or other appropriate relief may be sought by the third-party(ies). You and we acknowledge that the Terms and Conditions of Use affect interstate commerce and that the Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration laws apply to arbitrations under the Terms and Conditions of Use (despite any other choice of law provision).


Judgment on the Award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. This clause shall not preclude parties from seeking provisional remedies in aid of arbitration from a court of appropriate jurisdiction. You and we agree to pay our own fees, costs, and expenses, including those for any attorneys, experts, and witnesses. An arbitrator may award on an individual basis any relief that would be available in a court, including injunctive or declaratory relief and attorneys' fees.

YOU HAVE A RIGHT TO OPT-OUT OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT. If you do not agree to this mandatory arbitration provision with regard to your use of the Website, then prior to accessing and/or using the Website, you may opt-out of this part of the Terms and Conditions of Use by sending written notification to the following address:

Nichols & Associates
4614 Southwest Kelly Avenue, Suite 200
Portland, Oregon 97239

WE BOTH AGREE THAT, WHETHER ANY CLAIM IS IN ARBITRATION OR IN COURT, YOU AND PMTDA BOTH WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL INVOLVING ANY CLAIMS OR DISPUTES BETWEEN US.
