Terms of Service
Last Updated: 09/05/2024
Please read these Terms of Service (the “Terms”) and our Privacy Policy (“Privacy Policy”) carefully because they govern your use of the website and interface located at https://magiceden.us (the “Site” or the “Magic Eden Platform”), the blockchain currency management software that is downloadable from the site (the “Software”), corresponding mobile applications (“Apps”), and other services and resources that are available, enabled or offered by Euclid Labs Inc. (“Euclid Labs,” “we,” “our”), which facilitates interaction with certain decentralized cryptographic protocols, which are either open-sourced or may become open-sourced (collectively, the “Protocols”) to effectuate the creation and deployment (aka “minting”) of non-fungible tokens ( “NFTs”), support sale and distribution of such NFTs on the decentralized blockchains on which the NFTs are recorded (“Blockchain”), and support the management of cryptographic currencies. To make these Terms easier to read, the Site, Software, Apps and our services are collectively called the “Services”. These Terms do not govern any interactions you may with our third-party API providers, each of which has its own terms. Euclid Labs is not a bank or financial institution and does not provide investment or financial advice to users of the Services. We are solely the provider of the Services.
IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING ARBITRATION: WHEN YOU AGREE TO THESE TERMS YOU ARE AGREEING (WITH LIMITED EXCEPTION) TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN YOU AND EUCLID LABS THROUGH BINDING, INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION RATHER THAN IN COURT. PLEASE REVIEW CAREFULLY SECTION 18 “DISPUTE RESOLUTION” BELOW FOR DETAILS REGARDING ARBITRATION.^ HOWEVER, IF YOU ARE A RESIDENT OF A JURISDICTION WHERE APPLICABLE LAW PROHIBITS ARBITRATION OF DISPUTES, THE AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE IN SECTION 18 WILL NOT APPLY TO YOU BUT THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 17 (GOVERNING LAW) WILL APPLY INSTEAD.

About the Services.
-
The Magic Eden Platform. The Services facilitate interactions with the Protocols and Blockchains to allow individuals to, inter alia, bid on, purchase, trade, and sell NFTs. Euclid Labs provides the Magic Eden Platform, which is an interface to interact with the Protocols and Blockchains. The Services also allows users to create and deploy NFTs.
-
You may participate in the Services by linking your digital wallet(s) on supported bridge extensions, which allows you to purchase, store, and engage in transactions using cryptocurrency. Before putting up your unique digital asset for sale or putting in an offer to purchase a unique digital asset from another user, we will ask you to download a supported electronic wallet extension and connect and unlock your digital wallets with that extension. Once you submit an order to sell or purchase a unique digital asset, your order is passed on to the applicable extension, which completes the transaction on your behalf.
-
MAGIC EDEN PLATFORM IS NOT A BROKER, FINANCIAL INSTITUTION, OR CREDITOR. THE SERVICES ARE AN ADMINISTRATIVE PLATFORM ONLY. EUCLID LABS FACILITATES TRANSACTIONS BETWEEN THE PURCHASER AND SELLER ON THE MAGIC EDEN PLATFORM BUT IS NOT A PARTY TO ANY AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PURCHASER AND SELLER OF NFTs OR BETWEEN ANY USERS.
-
YOU BEAR FULL RESPONSIBILITY FOR VERIFYING THE IDENTITY, LEGITIMACY, AND AUTHENTICITY OF ASSETS YOU PURCHASE THROUGH THE MAGIC EDEN PLATFORM. NOTWITHSTANDING INDICATORS AND MESSAGES THAT SUGGEST VERIFICATION, EUCLID LABS MAKES NO CLAIMS ABOUT THE IDENTITY, LEGITIMACY, OR AUTHENTICITY OF ASSETS ON THE PLATFORM.
-
-
Transactions Are Conducted on the Blockchain. While Euclid Labs offers a marketplace for NFTs, it does not buy, sell or take custody or possession of any NFTs, nor does it act as an agent or custodian for any user of the Services. Instead, each NFT that is listed for sale will be deposited into a blockchain-based smart contract deployed by Euclid Labs to ensure that the purported seller owns such NFT. Each such NFT is released automatically upon consummation of its sale through the relevant Blockchain network. If you elect to mint, buy, or sell any NFTs, any transactions that you engage in will be conducted solely through the relevant Blockchain network governing such NFT. You will be required to make or receive payments exclusively through the cryptocurrency wallet you have connected to the Magic Eden Platform. We will have no insight into or control over these payments or transactions, nor do we have the ability to reverse any transactions. Accordingly, we will have no liability to you or to any third party for any claims or damages that may arise as a result of any transactions that you engage in via the Service. There may be royalties associated with the secondary sale of any NFT. You acknowledge and agree that the payment of any such royalty shall, in certain circumstances, be programmed to be self-executing via a blockchain network’s nonfungible token standard or another means and Euclid Labs does not have any control or ability to direct such funds or the obligation to collect such fees.
-
Promotions Programs. Your participation in certain programs (e.g., promotions, sweepstakes, giveaways, contests, rewards programs, etc.) made available through the Magic Eden Platform will be subject to additional terms and conditions specific to such programs as set forth by Euclid Labs or the sponsor of each promotion or program.
-
Terms Applicable to Purchasers and Sellers. If you are using the Services to purchase NFTs, you are a “Purchaser,” and if you are using the Services to sell NFTs, you are a “Seller.” If you are either a Purchaser or Seller, you agree to the following additional terms:
-
Purchase Terms. Although the terms of sale for an NFT are displayed on the Magic Eden Platform, all such terms are determined by the Purchasers and Sellers and the sale and purchase of NFTs are subject to such (e.g., with respect to the use of the NFT Content, as defined below in Section 5(e)(ii), or benefits associated with a given NFT) (“Purchase Terms”), including, but not limited to, the price to be paid for such NFT. Euclid Labs is not a party to any such Purchase Terms, which are solely between the Purchaser and the Seller and is not responsible for ensuring compliance with such terms or mediating or resolving any disputes with respect to such Purchase Terms, including, but not limited to, any disputes arising out of or related to the authenticity of the NFT or any intellectual property rights associated with such NFT. The Purchaser and Seller are entirely responsible for communicating, promulgating, agreeing to, and enforcing Purchase Terms, and for resolving any disputes arising from any breach of any Purchase Terms. Seller must comply with and fulfill the Purchase Terms with respect to any NFTs that it sells. When you purchase an NFT through the Services, you own all personal property rights to the electronic record that comprises the NFT (i.e., the right to sell or otherwise dispose of that NFT). Unless expressly specified in the Purchase Terms, such rights, however, do not include the ownership of the intellectual property rights in any NFT Content.
-
Costs and Fees. Transactions on the Magic Eden Platform may be subject to fees that Euclid Labs collects to support the NFT creators and Magic Eden Platform, as posted on the Site or otherwise set forth in these Terms. “Revenue” means the gross amount paid by the Purchaser of a sale of your NFT on the Magic Eden Platform. You further agree to pay all other applicable fees, including Gas Fees and hosting fees, and you authorize Euclid Labs to automatically charge you for any such fees or deduct such fees (including the Transaction Fee) directly from the amounts paid by the Purchaser or the amount received by Seller, at our discretion. The payments made to Creators do not include any Taxes (as defined below), and Euclid Labs shall have no responsibility for payment of such Taxes regardless of the taxing authority. Each party shall be responsible for all Taxes imposed on its income or property. Sellers or Purchasers, as applicable, will be responsible for paying all such fees, Taxes, and Gas fees. In addition, interactions with the Blockchain may also result in transaction fees or Gas Fees (as defined below) imposed by the Blockchain, which are also solely your responsibility. “Gas fees” mean fees that fund the network of computers that run decentralized blockchain networks, meaning that you will need to pay a Gas Fee for each transaction that occurs via a blockchain network.
-
Revenue Share and Fees. If you are a Seller, will receive Revenue less the Transaction Fee for each initial sale of your NFT on the Magic Eden Platform. “Transaction Fee” means the percentage of the Revenue generated from the sale of an NFT that is listed on the listing interface, as agreed by You, when determining to list your NFT for sale. The Transaction Fee may be, but is not required to be, the sale percentage for all sales of NFT and may be changed from time to time prior to being agreed to on the listing interface with respect to.

Terms Applicable to Creators. If you are using the Services to create and deploy NFTs or other digital assets, you are a “Creator” and agree to the following additional terms:

Notwithstanding the foregoing, you grant to Euclid Labs a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, non- exclusive, royalty-free, fully paid-up, license, with the right to sublicense through multiple tiers, to use NFT Content for the purpose of performing Euclid Labs’ obligations under these Terms, including hosting the NFT Content and listing, marketing and facilitating the sale of the NFTs, and marketing or promoting the Services.
-
Creator Obligations and Perks. You shall obtain all rights to the NFT Content in connection with the use thereof by Euclid Labs as contemplated in these Terms, and the awarding and administration of the benefits that you sell or list in connection with the sale of your NFT, as applicable, including, but not limited to: (i) clearing and obtaining any rights in connection with the NFT Content, including any music performance rights and payment of royalties to any performing rights organizations; (ii) acquiring any services or materials needed in connection with the NFTs and benefits offered to Purchasers; and (iii) the costs and compliance for the benefits, including as specified in the Purchase Terms.
-
Promotions Tool. The Services may enable you to administer a promotion (e.g., a contest or sweepstakes) (a “Promotion”) through the use of a promotions tool (a “Promotions Tool”). By using a Promotions Tool, you (a) agree to fully release Euclid Labs from any liability in connection with the promotion, and (b) acknowledge and agree that a Promotion is not in any way sponsored, endorsed, or administered by Euclid Labs unless agreed to in writing by you and Euclid Labs.

NFTS ARE INTANGIBLE DIGITAL ASSETS. THEY EXIST ONLY BY VIRTUE OF THE OWNERSHIP RECORD MAINTAINED IN THE APPLICABLE BLOCKCHAIN NETWORK. ANY TRANSFER OF TITLE THAT MIGHT OCCUR IN ANY UNIQUE DIGITAL ASSET OCCURS ON THE DECENTRALIZED LEDGER WITHIN SUCH BLOCKCHAIN NETWORK. WE DO NOT GUARANTEE THAT WE CAN AFFECT THE TRANSFER OF TITLE OR RIGHT IN ANY NFTS OR OTHER DIGITAL ASSETS, OR THAT ANY ASSOCIATED PAYMENT WILL BE SUCCESSFUL.

YOU BEAR FULL RESPONSIBILITY FOR VERIFYING THE IDENTITY, LEGITIMACY, AND AUTHENTICITY OF ASSETS YOU PURCHASE THROUGH THE SERVICES. NOTWITHSTANDING INDICATORS AND MESSAGES THAT SUGGEST VERIFICATION, EUCLID LABS MAKES NO CLAIMS ABOUT THE IDENTITY, LEGITIMACY, OR AUTHENTICITY OF ASSETS ON THE SERVICES.
THE SERVICES MAY NOT BE AVAILABLE DUE TO ANY NUMBER OF FACTORS INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, PERIODIC SYSTEM MAINTENANCE, SCHEDULED OR UNSCHEDULED, ACTS OF GOD, UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS, VIRUSES, DENIAL OF SERVICE OR OTHER ATTACKS, TECHNICAL FAILURE OF THE SERVICES AND/OR TELECOMMUNICATIONS INFRASTRUCTURE OR DISRUPTION, AND THEREFORE WE EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ANY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTY REGARDING THE USE AND/OR AVAILABILITY, ACCESSIBILITY, SECURITY OR PERFORMANCE OF THE SERVICES CAUSED BY SUCH FACTORS.

-
Assumption of Risk. You accept and acknowledge:
-
The prices and liquidity of cryptocurrency assets (including any NFTs) are extremely volatile. Fluctuations in the price of other digital assets could materially and adversely affect the NFTs made available through the Services, which may also be subject to significant price volatility. We cannot guarantee that any Purchasers of NFTs will not lose money.
-
You are solely responsible for determining what, if any, Taxes apply to your transactions through the Services. Neither Euclid Labs nor any Euclid Labs affiliates are responsible for determining the Taxes that apply to such transactions.
-
Any transfer of cryptocurrency assets occurs within the supporting Blockchain and not on the Services. Transactions in NFTs may be irreversible, and, accordingly, losses due to fraudulent or accidental transactions may not be recoverable. Some transactions in NFTs shall be deemed to be made when recorded on a public ledger, which is not necessarily the date or time that you initiated the transaction.
-
There are risks associated with using an Internet based currency, including but not limited to, the risk of hardware, software and Internet connections, the risk of malicious software introduction, and the risk that third parties may obtain unauthorized access to information stored within your wallet. You accept and acknowledge that Euclid Labs will not be responsible for any communication failures, disruptions, errors, distortions or delays you may experience when using the Services for transactions, however caused.
-
A lack of use or public interest in the creation and development of distributed ecosystems could negatively impact the development of those ecosystems and related applications, and could therefore also negatively impact the potential utility or value of a certain NFT.
-
The regulatory regime governing blockchain technologies, cryptocurrencies, and tokens is uncertain, and new regulations or policies may materially adversely affect the development of the Services and the utility of NFTs.
-
The Services may rely on third-party platforms to perform transactions with respect to any cryptocurrency assets. If we are unable to maintain a good relationship with such platform providers; if the terms and conditions or pricing of such platform providers change; if we violate or cannot comply with the terms and conditions of such platforms; or if any of such platforms loses market share or falls out of favor or is unavailable for a prolonged period of time, access to and use of the Service will suffer.
-
There are risks associated with purchasing user generated content, including but not limited to, the risk of purchasing counterfeit assets, mislabeled assets, assets that are vulnerable to metadata decay, assets on smart contracts with bugs, and assets that may become untransferable. Euclid Labs reserves the right to hide collections, contracts, and assets affected by any of these issues or by other issues. Assets you purchase may become inaccessible on Euclid Labs. Under no circumstances shall the inability to view or access your assets on Euclid Labs serve as grounds for a claim against Euclid Labs.
-
By accessing and using the Services, you represent that you understand the inherent risks associated with using cryptographic and blockchain-based systems, and that you have a working knowledge of digital assets. Such systems may have vulnerabilities or other failures, or other abnormal behavior. Euclid Labs is not responsible for any issues with the Blockchains or other blockchain-based networks, including forks, technical node issues or any other issues having fund, NFT, or Rewards losses as a result. You acknowledge that the cost and speed of transacting with cryptographic and blockchain-based systems such as Ethereum are variable and may increase at any time. You further acknowledge the risk that your digital assets may lose some or all of their value while they are supplied to or from the Services. You further acknowledge that we are not responsible for any of these variables or risks and cannot be held liable for any resulting losses that you experience while accessing Services. Accordingly, you understand and agree to assume full responsibility for all of the risks of accessing and using and interacting with the Services.

-
Indemnity.
-
You will indemnify, defend (at Euclid Labs’ option) and hold Euclid Labs and its officers, directors, employees and agents, harmless from and against any claims, disputes, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, and costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable legal and accounting fees arising out of or in any way connected with (a) your access to or use of the Services, (b) your NFT Content, or (c) your violation of these Terms. You may not settle or otherwise compromise any claim subject to this Section without Euclid Labs’ prior written approval.
-
You will indemnify and hold harmless Euclid Labs and its officers, directors, employees and agents, from and against any claims, disputes, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, and costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable legal and accounting fees arising out of or in any way connected with your breach of your representations and warranties from Section 5(e)(v).

-
Limitation of Liability.
-
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, NEITHER EUCLID LABS NOR ITS SERVICE PROVIDERS INVOLVED IN CREATING, PRODUCING, OR DELIVERING THE SERVICES WILL BE LIABLE FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, OR DAMAGES FOR LOST PROFITS, LOST REVENUES, LOST SAVINGS, LOST BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY, LOSS OF DATA OR GOODWILL, SERVICE INTERRUPTION, COMPUTER DAMAGE OR SYSTEM FAILURE OR THE COST OF SUBSTITUTE SERVICES OF ANY KIND ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THESE TERMS OR FROM THE USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE SERVICES, WHETHER BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), PRODUCT LIABILITY OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, AND WHETHER OR NOT EUCLID LABS OR ITS SERVICE PROVIDERS HAVE BEEN INFORMED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE, EVEN IF A LIMITED REMEDY SET FORTH HEREIN IS FOUND TO HAVE FAILED OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF LIABILITY FOR CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
-
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL THE AGGREGATE TOTAL LIABILITY OF EUCLID LABS AND ITS AGENTS, REPRESENTATIVES, AND AFFILIATES ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THESE TERMS OR FROM THE USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE SERVICES EXCEED THE AMOUNTS YOU HAVE PAID OR ARE PAYABLE BY YOU TO EUCLID LABS FOR USE OF THE SERVICES OR ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS ($100), IF YOU HAVE NOT HAD ANY PAYMENT OBLIGATIONS TO EUCLID LABS, AS APPLICABLE.
-
THE EXCLUSIONS AND LIMITATIONS OF DAMAGES SET FORTH ABOVE ARE FUNDAMENTAL ELEMENTS OF THE BASIS OF THE BARGAIN BETWEEN EUCLID LABS AND YOU.
-
-
Governing Law and Forum Choice. These Terms and any action related thereto will be governed by the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act, federal arbitration law, and the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict of laws provisions. Except as otherwise expressly set forth in Section 18 “Dispute Resolution,” the exclusive jurisdiction for all Disputes (defined below) that you and Euclid Labs are not required to arbitrate will be in the state and federal courts located in San Francisco, California, and you and Euclid Labs each waive any objection to jurisdiction and venue in such courts.
-
Dispute Resolution.
-
Informal Resolution of Disputes. You and Euclid Labs must first attempt in good faith to resolve any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity thereof or the use of the Services (collectively, “Disputes”) informally. Accordingly, neither you nor Euclid Labs may start a formal arbitration proceeding or file a claim in court for at least sixty (60) days after one party notifies the other party of a claim in writing (the “Informal Dispute Resolution Period”).
As part of this informal resolution process, you must deliver your written notices via hand or first-class mail to us at Euclid Labs, 1209 Orange Street, Wilmington, Delaware 19801 (the “Notice of Claim”). The Notice of Claim shall include both the mailing address and email address you would like Euclid Labs to use to contact you. If Euclid Labs elects to send you a Notice of Claim, it will send, by certified mail, a written Notice of Claim to your address on file. A Notice of Claim, whether sent by you or by Euclid Labs, must (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) set forth the specific amount of damages or other relief sought.
-
Small Claims Court; Mandatory Arbitration of Disputes. You and Euclid Labs agree that, any Dispute will be resolved solely by binding, individual arbitration or in small claims court, and not in a class, representative or consolidated action or proceeding. YOU AND EUCLID LABS ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION. Either you or Euclid Labs can seek to have a Dispute resolved in small claims court if all the requirements of the small claims court are satisfied. Either you or Euclid Labs may seek to have a Dispute resolved in small claims court in your county of residence or the small claims court in closest proximity to your residence, and you may also bring a Dispute in small claims court in the Superior Court of California in San Francisco. If a Dispute qualifies for small claims court, but a party commences an arbitration proceeding, you and Euclid Labs agree that either party may elect instead to have the Dispute resolved in small claims court, and upon written notice of a party’s election, the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) will administratively close the arbitration proceeding. Any dispute about whether a Dispute qualifies for small claims court shall be resolved by that court, not by an arbitrator. In the event of any such dispute, the arbitration proceeding shall remain closed unless and until a decision by the small claims court that the Dispute should proceed in arbitration. This arbitration provision shall survive termination of these Terms.
-
Exceptions. Notwithstanding the above and below, each party retains the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief from a court to prevent (or enjoin) the infringement or misappropriation of that party’s intellectual property rights.
-
Conducting Arbitration and Arbitration Rules. You and Euclid Labs agree that the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of these Terms, and that you and Euclid Labs are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class, representative or consolidated action or proceeding. The arbitration will be conducted by the AAA under its Consumer Arbitration Rules (the “AAA Rules”) then in effect, except as modified by these Terms. The AAA Rules are available at http://www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879. A party who wishes to start arbitration must submit a written Demand for Arbitration (“Demand”) to AAA and give notice to the other party as specified in the AAA Rules. The AAA provides a form Demand for Arbitration at http://www.adr.org. Any arbitration hearings will take place in the county (or parish) where you live, unless we both agree to a different location.
The arbitrator will be either (1) a retired judge or (2) an attorney specifically licensed to practice law in the state of California or the state of your residence and will be selected by the parties from the AAA’s National Roster of arbitrators. The arbitrator will be selected using the following procedure: (a) the AAA will send the parties a list of five candidates meeting this criteria; (b) if the parties cannot agree on an arbitrator from the list, each party shall return its list to the AAA within 10 days, striking up to two candidates, and ranking the remaining candidates in order of preference; (c) the AAA shall appoint as arbitrator the candidate with the highest aggregate ranking; and (d) if for any reason the appointment cannot be made according to this procedure, the AAA may exercise its discretion in appointing the arbitrator. The arbitrator is bound by the Terms. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. Except as otherwise provided herein, or in the event a Dispute qualifies for small claims court, all issues are for the arbitrator to decide, including issues relating to the scope and enforceability of this arbitration provision.
The arbitrator shall issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based. The award shall be binding only among the parties and shall have no preclusive effect in any other arbitration or other proceeding involving a different party. Euclid Labs will not seek to recover its attorneys’ fees and costs in arbitration from you unless the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in your demand for arbitration was frivolous or was brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)). Judgment on any award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. This arbitration provision shall not preclude any party to the arbitration from at any time seeking injunctions or other forms of equitable relief in aid of arbitration from a court of appropriate jurisdiction, including whether a demand for arbitration is filed in violation of the Terms.
Unless you or Euclid Labs seek to have a Dispute resolved in small claims court, the arbitrator shall determine all issues of liability on the merits of any Dispute asserted by you or Euclid Labs and may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party’s individual claim. To the extent that you or Euclid Labs prevail on a Dispute and seek public injunctive relief (that is, injunctive relief that has the primary purpose and effect of prohibiting unlawful acts that threaten future injury to the public), the entitlement to and extent of such relief must be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction and not in arbitration. The parties agree that litigation of any issues of public injunctive relief shall be stayed pending the outcome of the merits of any individual Disputes in arbitration. Before a court of competent jurisdiction issues any public injunctive relief, it shall review the factual findings of the arbitration award on which any injunction would issue with no deference to the arbitrator.
-
Mass Filing Procedures. YOU AND EUCLID LABS AGREE THAT, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, EACH OF US IS WAIVING THE RIGHT TO BRING OR PARTICIPATE IN A MASS ARBITRATION. Euclid Lab’s receipt of one or more Notice(s) of substantially similar claims brought by or on behalf of 25 or more claimants (including you) within a 60-day period ("Mass Filing") shall be subject to the additional procedures set forth below. Claims included in a Mass Filing, if not resolved during the Informal Dispute Resolution Period, may proceed only in accordance with the procedures set out below, and subject to the AAA Mass Arbitration Supplementary Rules, to the extent not contrary to these Terms. If a court determines that this Section 18(e) is not enforceable as to your claim, then your claim may only proceed individually in court consistent with these Terms.
-
Batching: You and Euclid Labs agree that your and other individuals' claims deemed by Euclid Labs a Mass Filing may be filed with AAA in batches of no greater than 50 individuals' claims at one time, with 25 claims (or half of the total number of claims in a batch, if less than 50) selected by counsel for you and other claimants and 25 claims (or half of the total number of claims in a batch, if less than 50) selected by Euclid Labs. After your claim is batched and permitted to be filed as a Demand, you and Euclid Labs agree that selection and appointment of an arbitrator for your Demand shall be governed by the AAA Mass Filing Rules.
-
First (Bellwether) Batch: The first batch of up to 50 Demands are the Bellwether Arbitrations. If your claim is included in the Bellwether Arbitrations, you and Euclid Labs shall cooperate with the arbitrator assigned to your arbitration to resolve your claim within 120 days of the initial pre-hearing conference.
-
Stay of Filing of Other Claims: If your claim is not among those selected for the Bellwether Arbitrations, your claim cannot be filed until it is assigned to a batch and authorized to be filed in a later stage of this process. No arbitration fees will be assessed on you or Euclid Labs in connection with your claim unless and until it is assigned to a batch and authorized to be filed with AAA.
-
Mediation: After the Bellwether Arbitrations are completed, if your claim remains unresolved, you and Euclid Labs agree to mediate your claim along with any other unresolved claims included in the Mass Filing ("Global Mediation"). The mediator will be selected according to the procedure set forth in the AAA Rules, and Euclid Labs will pay the mediator's fees. The Global Mediation shall be completed within 120 days of the selection of a mediator, unless extended by written agreement between you and Euclid Labs.
-
Election To Proceed in Court: If Global Mediation is not successful in resolving your claim, and 100 or more claims included in the Mass Filing remain unresolved, you or Euclid Labs may opt out of arbitration and elect to have your claim resolved in court consistent with Section 17 of these Terms. You or Euclid Labs must exercise this election within 45 days of the completion of Global Mediation.
-
Sequential Arbitration of Remaining Batches: If neither you nor Euclid Labs opt out of arbitration, another batch of no greater than 50 individuals' claims will be selected from the Mass Filing, with 25 claims (or half of the total number of claims in a batch, if less than 50) selected by counsel for claimants and 25 claims (or half of the total number of claims in a batch, if less than 50) selected by Euclid Labs. If your claim is included in this next batch of 50 claims, your claim will be filed with AAA, and you and Euclid Labs shall cooperate with the arbitrator assigned to your arbitration to resolve your claim within 120 days of the initial pre-hearing conference. The process of batching up to 50 individual claims at a time will continue until the parties resolve all claims included in the Mass Filing. No unbatched claim can proceed to be filed as a Demand until the previous batch has been resolved.
-
Tolling. For any claim subject to these Mass Filing procedures, any statute of limitations applicable to your claim shall be tolled from the date the Informal Dispute Resolution Period begins until the earlier of (1) the date your arbitration Demand is filed, or (2) the date you or Euclid Labs opts out of arbitration pursuant to Section 18(e)( 5 ).
-
-
Arbitration Costs. Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. You are required to pay AAA’s initial filing fee, but Euclid Labs will reimburse you for this filing fee at the conclusion of the arbitration to the extent it exceeds the fee for filing a complaint in a federal or state court in your county of residence or in California. If the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your Dispute or the relief sought in your Demand for Arbitration was frivolous or was brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all fees will be governed by the AAA Rules and Euclid Labs will not reimburse your initial filing fee. The parties agree that the AAA has discretion to modify the amount or timing of any administrative or arbitration fees due under the AAA Rules where it deems appropriate, provided that such modification does not increase the AAA fees to you or Euclid Labs and you and Euclid Labs waive any objection to such fee modification.
-
Class Action Waiver. YOU AND EUCLID LABS AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING DISPUTES AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, if the parties’ Dispute is resolved through arbitration, the arbitrator may not consolidate another person’s claims with your claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. If Euclid Labs believes that any Dispute you have filed in arbitration or in court is inconsistent with the limitations in this paragraph, then you agree that Euclid Labs may seek an order from a court determining whether your Dispute is within the scope of the Class Action Waiver. If a court or an arbitrator determines that any part of this arbitration provision or Class Action Waiver is unenforceable with respect to any Dispute, remedy, or request for relief, then the arbitration provision and Class Action Waiver will not apply to that Dispute, remedy, or request for relief. But the arbitration provision and Class Action Waiver will still apply to all other Disputes, remedies, and requests for relief that you or Euclid Labs may assert in that or any other action. In any such case, you and Euclid Labs agree that the parties will arbitrate all Disputes, remedies, and requests for relief subject to individual arbitration first, and that any remaining unresolved Disputes, remedies, or requests for relief may be pursued in court only after the arbitrator’s award has been issued. In any such proceeding, the arbitrator’s factual findings will not be entitled to deference by the court. The parties agree that any statutes of limitations applicable to the unresolved Disputes, remedies, or requests for relief shall be tolled pending the outcome of any individual Disputes in arbitration.
