By registering you agree that all Claims and causes of action arising out of or in connection with the Contest, or any prizes awarded, shall be resolved individually without resort to any form of class action (and shall not be consolidated or joined with or in any arbitration or other proceeding involving a Claim of any other party – the arbitrator shall have no authority to arbitrate any Claim as a class action or in any other form other than on an individual basis); Claims, judgments and/or awards shall be limited to actual out-of-pocket costs incurred, including costs associated with entering the Contest, but in no event attorney or legal fees for a Contestant; and under no circumstances will any Contestant be permitted to obtain any award for, and Contestant hereby waives all rights to claim punitive, incidental or consequential damages and any and all rights to have damages multiplied or otherwise increased and any other damages, other than damages for actual out-of-pocket expenses.

    In the event a Contestant initiates a proceeding involving any claim other than an arbitration in accordance with this Section, or initiates a proceeding involving a claim under this Section other than in San Bernardino County, California, VSC shall recover all attorneys’ fees and expenses reasonably incurred in enforcing this Agreement to arbitrate in the forum to which the Contestant has agreed.

    Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered by any court having jurisdiction thereof. This arbitration agreement is made pursuant to and in connection with a transaction involving interstate Commerce, and shall be governed by and construed and interpreted in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act at 9 U.S.C. Section 1, et seq., and pertinent California law. This arbitration provision shall survive termination of this Agreement.
