9.1. What happens if MT or a US user has a dispute? This section 9 is the legally binding terms and conditions between MT and you (a user in the United States) to resolve disputes through arbitration (“Arbitration Agreement”). This Arbitration Agreement supersedes sections 6 and 7 of these Terms for users of the Game who are located in the United States. By entering into these Terms, you and we agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation, or validity thereof, including the determination of the scope or applicability of this Arbitration Agreement, will be resolved solely by binding individual arbitration and not in a court before a judge or jury, class, representative, or consolidated action or proceeding. YOU UNDERSTAND AND ACKNOWLEDGE THAT BY AGREEING TO BINDING ARBITRATION, YOU ARE GIVING UP THE RIGHT TO LITIGATE (OR PARTICIPATE IN AS A PARTY OR CLASS MEMBER) ALL DISPUTES IN COURT BEFORE A JUDGE OR JURY. INSTEAD, YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT ALL DISPUTES WILL BE RESOLVED BEFORE A NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR, WHOSE AWARD (DECISION) WILL BE BINDING AND FINAL, EXCEPT FOR A LIMITED RIGHT OF APPEAL UNDER THE FEDERAL ARBITRATION ACT. ANY COURT WITH JURISDICTION OVER YOU AND WE MAY ENFORCE THE ARBITRATOR'S AWARD. You and MT may still pursue a claim in small claims court with applicable jurisdiction. Although you and we have agreed to this Arbitration Agreement, you and MT each retain the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a 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. Any legal action by MT against someone else or its interactions with governmental and regulatory authorities will not be subject to arbitration.

9.2. What happens if we have a dispute with each other? We and you both agree to make reasonable and good-faith efforts to resolve any dispute between us informally before commencing arbitration. Unless you and MT otherwise agree in writing, the time for informal negotiation will be 60 days from the date on which you or MT provides written notice to the other party of the dispute. You and MT agree that neither will commence arbitration before the end of the time for informal negotiation.

9.3. How can you bring a formal claim? You and we agree that any and all disputes will be arbitrated on an individual basis only. By agreeing to these Terms, you and we waive any right to participate in or receive money or any other relief from any class, consolidated, collective, mass claim or representative proceeding (“Mass Claim Waiver”). No arbitration will be consolidated with any other arbitration proceeding without the consent of both you and us. This Mass Claim Waiver will be severable from these Terms in the event it is found unenforceable. Notwithstanding any other provision of these Terms, disputes regarding the enforceability of this Mass Claim Waiver may be resolved only by a civil court of competent jurisdiction and not by an arbitrator.

9.4. What arbitration rules and governing law will be used? You and we agree that any arbitration between you and MT will be administered by National Arbitration and Mediation (NAM) in accordance with NAM's Comprehensive Dispute Resolution Rules and Procedures before one arbitrator and NAM's Mass Filing Supplemental Dispute Resolution Rules and Procedures (collectively, the "NAM Rules") in effect at the time of the dispute, both of which are available at www.namadr.com, except as modified by this Arbitration Agreement. The NAM Rules are incorporated by reference into this Arbitration Agreement.

9.5. What happens if mass demands are filed? In the event that 25 or more similar arbitration demands are filed against MT within a 30-day period, or 100 or more similar arbitration demands are filed against MT within a 180-day period (a "Mass Filing"), you and we agree that NAM's Mass Filing Supplemental Dispute Resolution Rules and Procedures will apply in addition to NAM's Comprehensive Dispute Resolution Rules and Procedures.

9.6. What are the requirements for submitting a claim? The party initiating the arbitration must provide a detailed written notice of the claim to the other party, including (a) a detailed statement of the claim, (b) the facts supporting each claim, (c) the legal basis for each claim, and (d) the specific relief sought. Failure to provide such details may result in dismissal of the claim or assessment of additional filing fees.

9.7. What is your right to opt out? You may opt out of this Arbitration Agreement within 30 days of accepting these Terms by sending a written notice by email to MT at [email protected] with the subject line "Arbitration Opt-Out”. If MT makes any future change to this Arbitration Agreement (other than a change to such e-mail address or other non-material changes), you may reject solely such changes by sending an email to MT at [email protected] with the subject line "Arbitration Change Opt-Out” within 30 days of the posting of the amended Arbitration Agreement. Failure to opt out within the related 30-day period will constitute your acceptance of the Arbitration Agreement or the changes to the Arbitration Agreement (as applicable). All notices regarding this Arbitration Agreement must include your name, address, account number, and a clear statement that you wish to opt out of this Arbitration Agreement or the relevant changes made to the Arbitration Agreement (as applicable). Opting out of this Arbitration Agreement or changes to an Arbitration Agreement has no effect on any previous, other, or future arbitration agreement that you may have with us, and does not affect any other part of these Terms, including the provisions regarding controlling law or in which courts any disputes must be brought. If you timely opt out of this Arbitration Agreement or any change as provided above, all other parts of these Terms will continue to apply to you.
