  1. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

THE COMPANY AND THE OTHER COMPANY PARTIES WILL NOT BE LIABLE TO YOU UNDER ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY FOR ANY INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE OR SPECIAL DAMAGES OR LOST PROFITS, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY DAMAGES RESULTING FROM LOSS OF USE, DIARY ENTRIES, DATA, OR GOODWILL, WHETHER OR NOT THE COMPANY OR ANY OTHER COMPANY PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY DAMAGES FOR PERSONAL OR BODILY INJURY OR EMOTIONAL DISTRESS ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE TERMS, OR FROM ANY COMMUNICATIONS, INTERACTIONS OR MEETINGS WITH OTHER USERS OF BIOEPISODE, ON ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY, RESULTING FROM: (1) THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE BIOEPISODE OR ANY SERVICE INTERRUPTION, COMPUTER DAMAGE OR SYSTEM FAILURE; (2) THE COST OF PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS OR SERVICES RESULTING FROM ANY GOODS, DATA, INFORMATION OR SERVICES PURCHASED OR OBTAINED OR MESSAGES RECEIVED FOR TRANSACTIONS ENTERED INTO THROUGH BIOEPISODE; (3) UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS TO OR ALTERATION OF YOUR TRANSMISSIONS OR DATA; (4) STATEMENTS OR CONDUCT OF ANY THIRD PARTY ON BIOEPISODE; OR (5) ANY OTHER MATTER RELATED TO BIOEPISODE, WHETHER BASED ON WARRANTY, COPYRIGHT, CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), PRODUCT LIABILITY OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY.

The total liability of the Company and the other Company Parties, for any claim arising out of or relating to these Terms or BioEpisode, regardless of the form of the action, is limited to the amount paid, if any, by you to Use BioEpisode. In no event will the Company’s total liability arising out of or in connection with these Terms or from the Use of or inability to Use BioEpisode exceed the amounts you have paid to Use BioEpisode or ten ($10) U.S. dollars, if you have not had any payment obligations to the Company, as applicable. The exclusion and limitations of damages set forth above are fundamental elements of the basis of the bargain between the Company and you.

The limitations set forth in this Section will not limit or exclude liability for fraud or intentional misconduct of the Company or the other Company Parties or for any other matters in which liability cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law. Additionally, some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to you.

  1. RELEASE

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you release the Company and the other Company Parties from responsibility, liability, claims, demands, and/or damages (actual and consequential) of every kind and nature, known and unknown (including, but not limited to, claims of negligence), arising out of or related to disputes between the Users and the acts or omissions of third parties. You expressly waive any rights you may have under California Civil Code § 1542 as well as any other statute or common law principles that would otherwise limit the coverage of this release to include only those claims which you may know or suspect to exist in your favor at the time of agreeing to this release.

  1. DISPUTE RESOLUTION; BINDING ARBITRATION

Please read the following Section carefully because it requires you to arbitrate certain disputes and claims with the Company and limits the manner in which you can seek relief from us.

Except for small claims disputes in which you or the Company seek to bring an individual action in small claims court located in the county of your billing address or disputes in which you or the Company seeks injunctive or other equitable relief for the alleged unlawful use of intellectual property, you and the Company waive your rights to a jury trial and to have any dispute arising out of or related to these Terms or BioEpisode resolved in court. Instead, all disputes arising out of or relating to these Terms or BioEpisode will be resolved through confidential binding arbitration held in Singapore in accordance with the Arbitration Rules of the Singapore International Arbitration Centre (“SIAC Rules”), which are hereby incorporated by reference. The seat of such arbitration shall be Singapore and all proceedings shall be conducted in the English language. Any arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section shall be conducted in accordance with the Expedited Procedure set out in Rule 5 of the SIAC Rules. The Tribunal shall consist of one arbitrator to be appointed by the President of the Court of Arbitration of the Singapore International Arbitration Centre (“SIAC”). The award rendered by the arbitrator shall, in addition to dealing with the merits of the case, fix the costs of the arbitration and decide which of the parties shall bear such costs or in what proportions such costs shall be borne by the parties hereto. The award rendered by the arbitrator or arbitrators shall be final, conclusive, and binding on all parties to this Section 15 Agreement and shall be subject to execution and enforcement in any court of competent jurisdiction.

You either acknowledge and agree that you have read and understand the SIAC Rules or waive your opportunity to read the SIAC Rules and any claim that such rules of SIAC are unfair or should not apply for any reason.

ANY ARBITRATION UNDER THESE TERMS BY EITHER YOU OR US WILL ONLY BE ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS; CLASS ARBITRATIONS, CLASS ACTIONS, REPRESENTATIVE ACTIONS, AND CONSOLIDATION WITH OTHER ARBITRATIONS ARE NOT PERMITTED. YOU WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO HAVE YOUR CASE DECIDED BY A JURY AND YOU WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION AGAINST US.

You and the Company agree that the enforceability of this Section 15 will be substantively and procedurally governed by the International Arbitration Act of Singapore (the “Act”), to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. As limited by the Act, these Terms and the SIAC Rules, the arbitrator will have exclusive authority to make all procedural and substantive decisions regarding any dispute and 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 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. You and the Company agree that for any arbitration you initiate, you will pay the filing fee, and the Company will pay the remaining SIAC fees and costs, subject to any reallocation thereof pursuant to the arbitral award.
