In such case, we will make arrangements to pay all necessary fees directly to the Hello? Caller ID.

If the amount of the claim exceeds US\$10,000 and you are able to demonstrate that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to the costs of litigation, Hello? Caller ID will pay as much of the filing, administration, and arbitrator fees as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive as compared to litigation. If the arbitrator determines the claim(s) you assert in the arbitration are frivolous, you agree to reimburse Hello? Caller ID for all fees associated with the arbitration paid by Hello? Caller ID on your behalf, which you otherwise would be obligated to pay under the Hello? Caller ID’s rules.

The arbitration shall be held in the county in which you reside or at another mutually agreed location. If the value of the relief sought is US\$10,000 or less, either of us may elect to have the arbitration conducted by telephone or based solely on written submissions, which election shall be binding on us subject to the arbitrator’s discretion to require an in-person hearing. Attendance at any in-person hearing may be made by telephone by you and/or us, unless the arbitrator requires otherwise.Neither party may bring a class action lawsuit to resolve a dispute.

YOU AND Hello? Caller ID EACH WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO CONDUCT DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCEEDINGS IN A CLASS ACTION OR CONSOLIDATED ACTION. YOU AND Hello? Caller ID EACH AGREE THAT ANY DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCEEDINGS WILL BE CONDUCTED ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS, WITH THE SOLE EXCEPTION OF REPRESENTATIVE SUITS THAT ARE PERMITTED BY, AND DEEMED UNWAIVABLE UNDER, STATE LAW. IF FOR ANY REASON A CLAIM PROCEEDS IN COURT RATHER THAN IN ARBITRATION, WE EACH WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL.

If any clause within this Section 9 (other than the class action waiver clause above) is determined to be illegal or unenforceable, that clause will be severed from this Section 9, and the remainder of this Section 9 will be given full effect. If the class action waiver clause is determined to be illegal or unenforceable, this entire Section 9 will be unenforceable, and the Dispute will be decided by the courts of the state of Washington, King County, or the United States District Court for the Western District of Washington, and the parties irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts.

The Federal Arbitration Act, applicable federal law, and the laws of the state of Washington, without regard to principles of conflict of laws, will govern this Agreement and any Dispute that might arise between Whitepages and you.
