3. Disputes and Arbitration

Except as expressly provided below, you agree that to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law any dispute arising out of or relating in any way to these Terms, communications between you and Fisher, your consent to receive communications, and your relationship with Fisher Investments (as well as affiliates and vendors acting on its behalf, all of which are intended beneficiaries of this agreement) prior to executing a client agreement or starting employment will be determined by arbitration, including the scope and applicability of the agreement to arbitrate contained in this section. After executing a client agreement, that agreement’s terms (including its arbitration terms) shall control and likewise require arbitration of disputes with Fisher to the maximum extent permitted by law. After starting employment, the terms of your employment shall control.

Any arbitration will be before the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Service (“JAMS”) office located in San Francisco, California; San Diego, California; Chicago, Illinois; New York, New York; Washington, D.C.; or Atlanta, Georgia, whichever location is closest to your last address of record on file with Fisher (or, in the event that you have not provided an address to Fisher, the location closest to your primary address at the time of the dispute) before one arbitrator who will be a retired judicial officer. Because the Terms memorialize a transaction in interstate commerce, the Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of these arbitration provisions.

Any claim for which applicable law (as determined by a final, binding court decision) or the applicable arbitration rules do not permit arbitration and require adjudication in a specific civil court will not be subject to arbitration but will instead be adjudicated in the appropriate court with jurisdiction over the claim. Any claim that is arbitrable, however, shall be severed from proceedings in court and separately arbitrated to the maximum extent permitted by law.

You also agree that any claim you assert will not be joined, for any purpose, with the claim or claims of any other person or entity, and the arbitrator shall have no jurisdiction to certify any class or proceed with any class action. The arbitration will be administered by JAMS pursuant to the Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures, and the proceedings and award shall be kept in strict confidence by both you and Fisher. The laws of the State of Delaware, including but not limited to any applicable Delaware statutes of limitation and Delaware common law construing those statutes, will govern the legal rights of the parties, except that the Federal Arbitration Act (FAA) applies to all issues regarding the enforceability and scope of the requirement to arbitrate, and any conflicts between the FAA and other law will be resolved in favor of the FAA and in favor of arbitration. The arbitration will be final and binding, and judgment on the award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT BY AGREEING TO ARBITRATION, YOU ARE WAIVING ALL RIGHTS TO SEEK REMEDIES IN COURT, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY RIGHT TO PROSECUTE ANY CLASS ACTION OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. YOU ALSO UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, YOU AND FISHER HEREBY WAIVE THEIR CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JURY, EVEN FOR DISPUTES NOT SUBJECT TO ARBITRATION.

This arbitration provision will remain in force even if you opt-out of further communications with Fisher. If any provision of this arbitration agreement is found unenforceable, the unenforceable provision shall be severed, and the remaining arbitration terms shall be enforced, except that if the class action waiver above is found unenforceable, the entire arbitration agreement is void, other than the jury waiver provision.

You can decline this arbitration agreement by timely writing via certified mail or a nationally recognized overnight delivery service to the General Counsel, 5525 NW Fisher Creek Drive, Camas, WA 98607 and providing the following information: (1) name; (2) address; (3) phone number; and (4) a clear statement that you wish to opt out of this arbitration agreement. To be effective, the opt-out notice must be mailed no later than 30 days after the date you become bound by the arbitration agreement. Please note that you will continue to be bound by any older arbitration provision that you did not out opt of and any other arbitration provision that governs the claims at issue.
