Limitation of Liability
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL ELEDON, ITS LICENSORS/PROVIDERS AND THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES, SUBSIDIARIES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES AND AGENTS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF YOUR ACCESS, USE, MISUSE, OR INABILITY TO USE THE SERVICES, CONTENT, OR ANY LINKED SITES, OR IN CONNECTION WITH ANY FAILURE OF PERFORMANCE, ERROR, TRANSMISSION, COMPUTER VIRUS, OR LINE OR SYSTEM FAILURE. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ELEDON, ITS LICENSORS/PROVIDERS AND THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES, SUBSIDIARIES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES AND AGENTS FOR ALL CLAIMS RELATING TO THE SERVICES, CONTENT, OR ANY LINKED SITES EXCEED $50.

Any claims arising in connection with your use of the Services, including any Content thereon, should be reported and brought to Eledon’s attention as soon as possible and, to the maximum extent permitted by law, you permanently and irrevocably waive your right to bring any claim in connection with your use of the Services or the Content unless you bring it no later than within one (1) year of the date of the event giving rise to such claim occurred.
Indemnity
You agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Eledon and all of our successors, assigns and licensees, together with any of their respective officers, directors and employees, against any damages, losses, liabilities, judgments, costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs) arising out of claims by a third party relating to your use of the Services (including any Content thereon, including User Content that you may post), or any breach or violation of the Terms of Use or any other terms and conditions contained on the Services.
Governing Law; Mandatory Arbitration
The Terms of Use are subject to the laws of the United States and the State of California, without regard to principles of conflict of laws. You expressly agree that if you dispute the validity or enforceability of the individual arbitration provision and/or class action waiver in these Terms of Use, you shall bring such dispute in the courts of the State of California and you expressly consent and agree to submit to the exclusive personal jurisdiction and venue of such courts.
EXCEPT FOR DISPUTES THAT QUALIFY FOR SMALL CLAIMS COURT, ALL DISPUTES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS OF USE OR ANY ASPECT OF THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN YOU, ON THE ONE HAND, AND ELEDON, ITS LICENSORS/PROVIDERS AND THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES, SUBSIDIARIES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES AND AGENTS, ON THE OTHER HAND, WHETHER BASED IN CONTRACT, TORT, STATUTE, FRAUD, MISREPRESENTATION OR ANY OTHER THEORY, WILL BE RESOLVED THROUGH FINAL AND BINDING ARBITRATION BEFORE A NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR INSTEAD OF IN A COURT BY A JUDGE OR JURY AND YOU AGREE THAT ELEDON AND YOU ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY A JURY. YOU FURTHER AGREE THAT ANY ARBITRATION WILL TAKE PLACE ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS ONLY, AND THAT CLASS ARBITRATIONS, CLASS ACTIONS, AND/OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE ACTIONS ARE NOT PERMITTED. YOU ARE AGREEING TO GIVE UP THE ABILITY TO BRING OR PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE ACTION IN COURT OR ARBITRATION.
The individual arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules (the “AAA Rules”) (available from the AAA at www.adr.org), as amended by these Terms of Use. The arbitrator will conduct hearings, if any, by teleconference or videoconference, rather than by personal appearances, unless the arbitrator determines upon request by you or by us that an in-person hearing is appropriate. Any in-person appearances will be held at a location that is reasonably convenient to both parties with due consideration of their ability to travel and other pertinent circumstances. If the parties are unable to agree on a location, such determination should be made by the AAA or by the arbitrator. If you are able to demonstrate that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to the costs of litigation, Eledon will pay as much of your filing and hearing fees in connection with the arbitration as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive. The arbitrator will be bound by these Terms of Use, when not in conflict with applicable law, and the arbitrator’s decision will be binding and final, subject only to the limited right of judicial review provided under the Federal Arbitration Act. The arbitrator will have authority to award temporary, interim, or permanent injunctive relief or relief providing for specific performance of these Terms of Use, but only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by the individual claim before the arbitrator. If the arbitrator decides that either the substance of your claim or the remedy you asked for is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose, Eledon may use the AAA Rules to determine whether you are responsible for the filing, administrative and arbitrator fees. The award rendered by the arbitrator may be confirmed and enforced in any court having jurisdiction thereof. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, nothing in these Terms of Use will preclude you from bringing issues to the attention of federal, state or local governmental agencies, or from seeking public injunctive relief in court where that right cannot be waived under applicable state law.
Termination
Eledon may terminate this agreement for any reason at any time. Eledon reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to restrict, suspend, or terminate your access to and use of the Services, with or without prior notice. Otherwise applicable sections of the Terms of Use shall survive termination. In addition to any termination rights, we reserve the right to enforce and prosecute any violations of the Terms of Use.
No Waiver; Entire Agreement
Eledon’s failure to enforce any provision of the Terms of Use shall not in any way waive our right to enforce subsequently any terms of conditions of these Terms of Use or to act with respect to similar breaches. Unless otherwise specified herein, the Terms of Use constitute the entire agreement between you and Eledon and govern your use of the Services. If any portion of the Terms of Use is held invalid or unenforceable, that portion shall be construed in a manner consistent with applicable law to reflect, as nearly as possible, the original intention of the parties, and the remaining portions shall remain in full force and effect.
