This Agreement is and will be governed by and construed under the Federal Arbitration Act, applicable federal law, and the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any conflicts of laws provision thereof or of any other jurisdiction that would produce a contrary result.

Except as set forth below, ANY DISPUTE OR CLAIM ARISING UNDER THESE TERMS OF SERVICE, INCLUDING THE PRIVACY POLICY INCORPORATED HEREIN BY REFERENCE, OR RELATING IN ANY WAY TO YOUR USE OF THE SITE OR SERVICES WILL BE RESOLVED BY FINAL AND BINDING ARBITRATION, RATHER THAN IN COURT; provided, however, that the following are exceptions to our agreement to arbitrate our disputes:

a) Any claim that qualifies as a small claim in a court of limited subject matter jurisdiction must be brought in such court; and

b) Any claim for injunctive relief may be brought in a court of competent jurisdiction to enjoin intellectual property infringement or misuse.

You may begin an arbitration proceeding by following the American Arbitration Association’s (AAA’s) filing requirements and mailing a request for arbitration and description of your claim to our registered agent, Osborn Maledon. The AAA’s Rules of Commercial Arbitration will apply (available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879).

You may opt out of this agreement to arbitrate by providing written notice of your intention to do so to Boutiq within 60 days of the earlier of your first use of the Site or Services or your registration with the Site or Services.

11. General

You agree that because of the unique nature of the Services and Boutiq's proprietary rights therein, a demonstrated breach of this Agreement by You would irreparably harm Boutiq and monetary damages would be inadequate compensation. Therefore, You agree that Boutiq shall be entitled to preliminary and permanent injunctive relief, as determined by any court of competent jurisdiction to enforce the provisions of this Agreement. The prevailing party to any such request for preliminary or permanent injunctive relief shall be entitled to an award of its reasonable attorneys’ fees.

If any provision of this Agreement is declared void, illegal, or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement will be valid and enforceable to the extent permitted by applicable law. In such event, the parties agree to use their best efforts to replace the invalid or unenforceable provision by a provision that, to the extent permitted by the applicable law, achieves the purposes intended under the invalid or unenforceable provision.

Any failure by any party to this Agreement to enforce at any time any term or condition under this Agreement will not be considered a waiver of that party's right thereafter to enforce each and every term and condition of this Agreement.

Neither party will be responsible for delays resulting from circumstances beyond the reasonable control of such party, provided that the nonperforming party uses reasonable efforts to avoid or remove such causes of nonperformance and continues performance hereunder with reasonable dispatch whenever such causes are removed.

This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and understanding between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements, oral and written, made with respect to the subject matter hereof. No purchase order and/or standard terms of purchase provided by You shall supersede this Agreement.

Nothing in this Agreement shall give, directly or indirectly, any third party any enforceable benefit or any right of action against Boutiq and such third parties shall not be entitled to enforce any term of this Agreement against Boutiq.

We may assign our rights and delegate our duties under these Terms of Service either in whole or in part at any time without notice. You may not assign, sublicense or otherwise transfer your rights or obligations, in whole or in part, under these Terms of Service to anyone else without our prior written consent.

This Agreement does not establish any relationship of partnership, joint venture, employment, franchise or agency between you and us.

Notwithstanding the above or anything to the contrary herein, to the extent that Customer at any time provides Boutiq with any feedback or suggestions regarding the Boutiq Service, including potential improvements or changes thereto (collectively, “Feedback”), the Feedback shall not be considered Confidential Information of Customer, and Boutiq may use, disclose and exploit the Feedback in any manner it chooses. All Feedback provided by Customer is provided “AS IS” and without warranty or representation of any kind.

Boutiq shall have the right to use Customer’s name and logo on client lists published on Boutiq’s website and in marketing materials provided that such use is previewed and pre-approved by Customer. Boutiq may announce the relationship hereunder in a press release provided that Boutiq obtains Customer’s prior approval of the wording of the release (not unreasonably withheld).
