LEGAL STUFF 29.1. Each of the clauses of these Terms operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them (as a whole, or partially) are unlawful, the remaining clauses (or part of them) will remain in full force and effect. 29.2. These Terms are personal to you. You may only transfer your rights or your obligations under these Terms to another person if we agree to this in writing. 29.3. We may transfer our rights and obligations under these Terms to another organisation. We will always tell you in writing if this happens and we will ensure that the transfer will not affect your rights under these Terms. 29.4. If we do not insist immediately that you do anything you are required to do under these Terms, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of your breaking your contract with us, that will not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us taking steps against you at a later date. 29.5. These Terms are between you and us. No other person shall have any rights to enforce any of its terms. 29.6. These Terms shall be governed and construed in accordance with English law. 29.7.

Arbitration Agreement Clause 29.7 of the Terms of Use above shall be deleted and replaced with the following:
Please read the following ARBITRATION AGREEMENT carefully because it requires you to arbitrate certain disputes and claims with Muzz Ltd (“Muzz”) and limits the manner in which you can seek relief from Muzz. Both you and Muzz acknowledge and agree that for the purposes of any dispute arising out of or relating to the subject matter of these Terms of Use, Muzz’s officers, directors, employees and independent contractors (“Personnel”) are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms of Use, and that upon your acceptance of these Terms of Use, Personnel will have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce these Terms of Use against you as the third-party beneficiary hereof. (a) Arbitration Rules; Applicability of Arbitration Agreement. The parties shall use their best efforts to settle any dispute, claim, question, or disagreement arising out of or relating to the subject matter of these Terms of Use directly through good-faith negotiations, which shall be a precondition to either party initiating arbitration. If such negotiations do not resolve the dispute, it shall be finally settled by binding arbitration in New York. The arbitration will proceed in the English language, in accordance with the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures (the “Rules”) then in effect, by one commercial arbitrator with substantial experience in resolving intellectual property and commercial contract disputes. The arbitrator shall be selected from the appropriate list of JAMS arbitrators in accordance with such Rules. Judgment upon the award rendered by such arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. (b) Costs of Arbitration. The Rules will govern payment of all arbitration fees. Muzz will pay all arbitration fees for claims less than seventy-five thousand ($75,000) dollars. Muzz will not seek its attorneys’ fees and costs in arbitration unless the arbitrator determines that your claim is frivolous. (c) Small Claims Court; Infringement. Either you or Muzz may assert claims, if they qualify, in small claims court in New York or any United States county where you live or work. Furthermore, notwithstanding the foregoing obligation to arbitrate disputes, each party shall have the right to pursue injunctive or other equitable relief at any time, from any court of competent jurisdiction, to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation or violation of a party’s copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents or other intellectual property rights. (d) Waiver of Jury Trial. YOU AND MUZZ WAIVE ANY CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO GO TO COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR JURY. You and Muzz are instead choosing to have claims and disputes resolved by arbitration. Arbitration procedures are typically more limited, more efficient, and less costly than rules applicable in court and are subject to very limited review by a court. In any litigation between you and Muzz over whether to vacate or enforce an arbitration award, YOU AND MUZZ WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL, and elect instead to have the dispute be resolved by a judge. (e) Waiver of Class or Consolidated Actions. ALL CLAIMS AND DISPUTES WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT MUST BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS BASIS. CLAIMS OF MORE THAN ONE CUSTOMER OR USER CANNOT BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED JOINTLY OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANY OTHER CUSTOMER OR USER. If, however, this waiver of class or consolidated actions is deemed invalid or unenforceable, neither you nor Muzz is entitled to arbitration; instead, all claims and disputes will be resolved in a court as set forth in (g) below. (f) Opt-out. You have the right to opt out of the provisions of this Arbitration Agreement by sending written notice of your decision to opt out to the following address: 249 Cranbrook Rd, Ilford, IG1 4TG United Kingdom, postmarked within thirty (30) days of first accepting these Terms of Use. You must include (i) your name and residence address, (ii) the email address and/or telephone number associated with your Account, and (iii) a clear statement that you want to opt out of this arbitration agreement. (g) Exclusive Venue. If you send the opt-out notice in (f), and/or in any circumstances where the foregoing arbitration agreement permits either you or Muzz to litigate any dispute arising out of or relating to the subject matter of these Terms of Use in court, then the foregoing arbitration agreement will not apply to either party, and both you and Muzz agree that any judicial proceeding (other than small claims actions) will be brought in the state or federal courts located in, respectively, New York, or the federal district in which that county falls. (h) Severability. If the prohibition against class actions and other claims brought on behalf of third parties contained above is found to be unenforceable, then all of the preceding language in this Arbitration Agreement will be null and void. This arbitration agreement will survive the termination of your relationship with Muzz.
Limitation of Liability: Clause 24.4 of the Terms of Use shall be deleted and replaced with the following: TO THE FULLEST EXTENT ALLOWED BY APPLICABLE LAW, UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES AND UNDER NO LEGAL THEORY (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, TORT, CONTRACT, STRICT LIABILITY, OR OTHERWISE) SHALL ANY OF MUZZ AND ITS LICENSORS, SUPPLIERS, PARTNERS, PARENT, SUBSIDIARIES OR AFFILIATED ENTITIES, AND EACH OF THEIR RESPECTIVE OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, MEMBERS, EMPLOYEES, CONSULTANTS, CONTRACT EMPLOYEES, REPRESENTATIVES AND AGENTS, AND EACH OF THEIR RESPECTIVE SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS (MUZZ AND ALL SUCH PARTIES TOGETHER, THE “MUZZ PARTIES”) BE LIABLE TO YOU OR TO ANY OTHER PERSON FOR (A) ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING DAMAGES FOR LOST PROFITS, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, LOSS OF DATA, LOSS OF GOODWILL, WORK STOPPAGE, ACCURACY OF RESULTS, OR COMPUTER FAILURE OR MALFUNCTION, (B) ANY SUBSTITUTE GOODS, SERVICES OR TECHNOLOGY, (C) ANY AMOUNT, IN THE AGGREGATE, IN EXCESS OF THE GREATER OF (I) ONE-HUNDRED ($100) DOLLARS OR (D) ANY MATTER BEYOND OUR REASONABLE CONTROL. SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL OR CERTAIN OTHER DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION AND EXCLUSIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
Indemnity You agree to indemnify and hold the Muzz Parties harmless from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages (actual and consequential), losses and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) arising from or in any way related to any claims relating to (a) your use of the Service (including any actions taken by a third party using your Account) and (b) your violation of these Terms of Use.
Choice of Law: Clause 29.6 of the Terms of Use above shall be deleted and replaced with the following: These Terms of Use are governed by and will be construed under the Federal Arbitration Act, applicable federal law, and the laws of the New York, without regard to the conflicts of laws provisions thereof.
