ALTERNATIVE DISPUTE RESOLUTION AGREEMENT (“ADR Agreement”):
PLEASE READ THIS CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS, INCLUDING TO A JURY TRIAL OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.
Arbitration: YOU AND ROBERT BOSCH LLC. (COLLECTIVELY, THE “PARTIES”) AGREE THAT TO THE GREATEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ALL DISPUTES, CLAIMS, OR CONTROVERSIES BETWEEN THE PARTIES (OR THEIR REPRESENTATIVES, SUCCESSORS, OR INSURERS) WILL BE RESOLVED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS IN ARBITRATION AS SET FORTH BELOW. This agreement to arbitrate is intended to be broadly interpreted and includes, but is not limited to: (i) claims arising out of or relating to the Official Rules (including the interpretation, breach, enforcement, termination, or validity), (ii) claims arising out of or relating to any Bosch product’s condition, characteristics, or performance, and (iii) claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of the relationship between the Parties, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation or any other legal theory. This means that the Parties are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action; instead, the Parties’ claims will be heard and decided by a neutral arbitrator. Each of the Parties has the right to apply solely and exclusively to the state or federal courts of Michigan, with venue in the County of Oakland for state court and the Eastern District of Michigan for federal court, for interim relief necessary to preserve the Party’s rights, including pre-arbitration injunctions, and such request will not be deemed incompatible with, or a waiver of, this ADR Agreement. For purposes of interim relief and confirmation or challenge of any award, you and Bosch consent to exclusive jurisdiction in the state or federal courts of Michigan, with venue in the County of Oakland for state court and the Eastern District of Michigan for federal court. As an exception to the agreement to arbitrate, you may pursue an individual claim in small claims court in your county of residence (if in the United States) or in DuPage County, IL. if the amount of your claim does not exceed the applicable small claims court limitation. In such case, the rules and limitations of the small claims court will apply.
Waiver of Class Action: THE PARTIES AGREE THAT, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless the Parties agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. If this waiver provision is deemed unenforceable, the Parties agree that the entirety of this ADR Agreement will be null and void.
Rules and Governing Law: The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) and will be conducted by a single arbitrator appointed by the AAA pursuant to AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules and its Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (“AAA Rules”) then in effect, except as modified by this ADR Agreement.
The Parties agree that the arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court or agency, will have exclusive authority to resolve any disputes relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of this ADR Agreement, including any claim that all or any part of this ADR Agreement is void or voidable. The arbitrator will also be responsible for determining all threshold arbitrability issues, including issues relating to whether the ADR Agreement or more general terms and conditions are unconscionable or illusory and any defense to arbitration, including waiver, delay, laches, or estoppel.
The Parties agree and acknowledge that this ADR Agreement evidences a transaction involving interstate or international commerce and that the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”), 9 U.S.C. § 1, et seq., will govern its interpretation and enforcement and proceedings pursuant thereto. It is the intent of the Parties that the FAA and AAA Rules will preempt all state laws to the fullest extent permitted by law. If the FAA and AAA Rules are found to not apply to any issue that arises under this ADR Agreement or the enforcement thereof, then that issue will be resolved under the laws of the State of Michigan, without regard to its choice-of-law provisions.
Arbitration Process: A Party who desires to initiate arbitration must provide the other Party with a written Demand for Arbitration as specified in the AAA Rules. (The AAA provides a form Demand for Arbitration - Consumer Arbitration Rules at www.adr.org or by calling the AAA at 1‑800-778-7879). The Demand for Arbitration to Robert Bosch LLC. should be addressed to: Robert Bosch LLC., Attn: Loyalty Manager MA/SMS3, One Tower Lane, Suite 3100, Oakbrook Terrace, IL 60181. Unless the Parties agree otherwise, the place of arbitration will be at the nearest AAA facility to your residence. Your arbitration filing fees will never exceed the consumer limit set by AAA, and may be waivable under applicable law. If your claim does not exceed $10,000, then the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of briefing that the Parties submit to the arbitrator, unless the arbitrator determines that a hearing is necessary. If your claim exceeds $10,000, your right to a hearing will be determined by the AAA Rules. Subject to the AAA Rules, the arbitrator will have the discretion to direct a reasonable exchange of information by the Parties, consistent with the expedited nature of the arbitration and the size and scope of any possible award.
Arbitrator’s Decision: The arbitrator’s decision will be final and binding on the Parties. Unless the Parties agree otherwise, the arbitrator will provide a reasoned written opinion supporting the decision. The arbitrator’s decision and judgment thereon will have no precedential or collateral estoppel effect. The Parties will each be responsible for their own attorney fees, unless prohibited by law or the arbitrator otherwise finds the claims or defenses to have been harassing or made in bad faith.
The arbitrator will have no authority to award punitive or other damages not measured by the prevailing party’s actual damages, except as may be required by statute. The arbitrator will not award consequential damages, and, to the extent permitted by law, any award will be limited to monetary damages and will include no equitable relief, injunction, or direction to any party other than the direction to pay a monetary amount. Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator will be binding and final, and may be entered in the state or federal courts of Michigan, with venue in the County of Oakland for state court and the Eastern District of Michigan for federal court. Except as may be required by law, neither the Parties, the Parties’ counsel nor the arbitrator may disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration under this ADR Agreement without the prior written consent of both Parties.
