TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL CODE QUEST LLC, ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, MEMBERS, MANAGERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, LICENSORS, SUPPLIERS, OR SERVICE PROVIDERS BE LIABLE TO YOU OR ANY THIRD PARTY FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, OR ENHANCED DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO DAMAGES FOR: (a) LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, OR BUSINESS; (b) LOSS OF DATA, GOODWILL, OR ANTICIPATED SAVINGS; (c) LOSS OF USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE WEBSITE OR SERVICES; (d) COST OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS OR SERVICES; (e) BUSINESS INTERRUPTION; OR (f) ANY OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, REGARDLESS OF THE CAUSE OF ACTION (WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY, WARRANTY, OR OTHERWISE) AND EVEN IF THE COMPANY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

11.2 Cap on Damages. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE COMPANY'S TOTAL CUMULATIVE LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR YOUR USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE WEBSITE OR SERVICES, REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF ACTION (WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, NEGLIGENCE, OR OTHERWISE), SHALL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF: (a) THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF FEES ACTUALLY PAID BY YOU TO THE COMPANY DURING THE TWELVE (12) MONTH PERIOD IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM; OR (b) ONE HUNDRED UNITED STATES DOLLARS (USD $100.00).

11.3 Exceptions and Jurisdictional Limitations. Some jurisdictions, including the State of Washington, do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain types of liability. To the extent that such exclusions or limitations are not permitted by Applicable Law, the exclusions and limitations in this Section 11 shall apply only to the fullest extent permitted by law. In such jurisdictions, the Company's liability shall be limited to the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to limit the Company's liability for: (a) death or personal injury caused by the Company's gross negligence; (b) fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; or (c) any other liability that cannot be excluded or limited by Applicable Law.

11.4 Essential Basis. You acknowledge and agree that the disclaimers, limitations, and exclusions of liability set forth in this Section 11 and in Section 10 of this Agreement are fundamental elements of the basis of the bargain between you and the Company, and that the Company would not have provided the Website or Services to you absent such limitations. The limitations set forth in this Section 11 shall apply notwithstanding the failure of the essential purpose of any limited remedy.

SECTION 12. INDEMNIFICATION

12.1 User's Indemnification Obligation. To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, you agree to defend, indemnify, protect, and hold harmless Code Quest LLC, and each of its respective past, present, and future officers, directors, members, managers, shareholders, employees, agents, attorneys, licensors, contractors, representatives, successors, and assigns (collectively, the "Indemnified Parties"), from and against any and all claims, demands, suits, actions, proceedings, investigations, judgments, losses, damages, liabilities, penalties, fines, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and court costs) (collectively, "Claims") that arise out of or relate to:

(a) your access to or use of the Website or Services;

(b) any User Content you submit, post, transmit, or otherwise make available through the Website or Services;

(c) your breach or alleged breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, or obligation set forth in this Agreement;

(d) your violation of any Applicable Law or the rights of any third party, including any Intellectual Property Rights, privacy rights, or publicity rights;

(e) your Prohibited Conduct, as defined in Section 5.2 of this Agreement;

(f) your fraud, gross negligence, or intentional misconduct; or

(g) any dispute between you and any third party.

12.2 Indemnification Procedure. The Company reserves the right to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter subject to indemnification by you under this Section 12, at your expense, and you agree to cooperate fully with the Company in connection with the defense of any such matter. You shall not, without the Company's prior written consent, settle any Claim against the Company or any Indemnified Party. The Company shall use reasonable efforts to notify you of any such Claim upon becoming aware of it; however, any failure or delay by the Company in providing such notice shall not relieve you of your indemnification obligations.

SECTION 13. DISPUTE RESOLUTION

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT AND TO HAVE A JURY TRIAL.

13.1 Informal Resolution. Before initiating any formal legal proceeding, the parties agree to use good faith efforts to resolve any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the Privacy Policy, the Website, or the Services ("Dispute") through informal negotiation. Either party seeking to initiate a formal dispute shall first provide written notice to the other party describing the nature of the Dispute and the relief sought ("Notice of Dispute"). The parties shall then have thirty (30) calendar days from the date of receipt of such notice (the "Informal Resolution Period") to attempt to resolve the Dispute through good faith negotiation. If the parties are unable to resolve the Dispute during the Informal Resolution Period, either party may proceed to binding arbitration as set forth below.

13.2 Mandatory Binding Arbitration. EXCEPT AS PROVIDED IN SECTIONS 13.4 AND 13.5, ALL DISPUTES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE PRIVACY POLICY, THE WEBSITE, OR THE SERVICES, INCLUDING ANY DISPUTE REGARDING THE EXISTENCE, VALIDITY, SCOPE, BREACH, OR TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT, SHALL BE RESOLVED EXCLUSIVELY THROUGH FINAL AND BINDING ARBITRATION ADMINISTERED BY JAMS (FORMERLY JUDICIAL ARBITRATION AND MEDIATION SERVICES) PURSUANT TO ITS COMPREHENSIVE ARBITRATION RULES AND PROCEDURES (OR THE JAMS STREAMLINED ARBITRATION RULES AND PROCEDURES IF THE CLAIM IS FOR TEN THOUSAND U.S. DOLLARS ($10,000) OR LESS), OR, IF JAMS IS UNAVAILABLE, BY THE AMERICAN ARBITRATION ASSOCIATION ("AAA") PURSUANT TO ITS CONSUMER ARBITRATION RULES, AS MODIFIED BY THIS AGREEMENT. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT BY ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT, YOU AND CODE QUEST LLC ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT.

13.3 Arbitration Procedures. The arbitration shall be conducted by a single, neutral arbitrator. The place of arbitration shall be Tacoma, Washington, United States of America, or, if the parties agree, via telephone, video conference, or written submissions. The arbitration shall be conducted in the English language. The arbitrator shall apply the substantive law of the State of Washington and applicable federal law. The arbitrator's award shall be final and binding upon both parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. The costs of arbitration, including administrative fees and the arbitrator's fees and expenses, shall be allocated in accordance with the applicable arbitration rules; provided, however, that the Company may, in its sole discretion, advance or pay some or all of such fees and costs.

13.4 Class Action Waiver. YOU AND CODE QUEST LLC AGREE THAT EACH PARTY MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS ACTION, COLLECTIVE ACTION, CONSOLIDATED ACTION, REPRESENTATIVE ACTION, MASS ACTION, OR ANY OTHER FORM OF AGGREGATE PROCEEDING, WHETHER IN ARBITRATION, IN COURT, OR OTHERWISE. UNLESS BOTH PARTIES AGREE IN WRITING, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE OR JOIN MORE THAN ONE PERSON'S OR PARTY'S CLAIMS AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A CONSOLIDATED, REPRESENTATIVE, OR CLASS PROCEEDING. THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD RELIEF ONLY IN FAVOR OF THE INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING RELIEF AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE RELIEF WARRANTED BY THAT INDIVIDUAL PARTY'S CLAIM. IF A COURT DETERMINES THAT THIS CLASS ACTION WAIVER IS UNENFORCEABLE WITH RESPECT TO A PARTICULAR CLAIM OR REQUEST FOR RELIEF, THEN THE PARTIES AGREE THAT SUCH CLAIM OR REQUEST FOR RELIEF SHALL BE LITIGATED IN COURT AND ALL OTHER CLAIMS SHALL BE ARBITRATED.

13.5 Small Claims Court Exception. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may bring an individual claim in the small claims court of competent jurisdiction if the claim qualifies for resolution in small claims court and the amount in controversy does not exceed the jurisdictional limits of such court. This exception applies only to claims that qualify for and remain in small claims court, and does not waive either party's right to compel arbitration if the claim is removed or appealed to a higher court.

13.6 Governing Law. This Agreement and all Disputes arising hereunder shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Washington, without regard to its conflict of law principles, and applicable federal law of the United States of America. Please refer to Section 14 for additional provisions regarding governing law.

13.7 Jurisdiction and Venue. For any Disputes not subject to mandatory arbitration under this Section 13, or for purposes of seeking provisional or interim relief, or for the purpose of enforcing an arbitration award, each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive personal jurisdiction and venue of the state courts of Pierce County, Washington, or the United States District Court for the Western District of Washington at Tacoma, and waives any objection to the exercise of jurisdiction over it by such courts and any claim that such venue is improper or inconvenient.

13.8 Time Limitation on Claims. ANY CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM YOU MAY HAVE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE USE OF THE WEBSITE OR SERVICES MUST BE COMMENCED WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION ACCRUES. AFTER SUCH ONE-YEAR PERIOD, ANY SUCH CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM IS PERMANENTLY BARRED.

SECTION 14. GOVERNING LAW

14.1 Applicable Law. This Agreement, and any Dispute arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, your use of the Website, or the Services, shall be governed by, construed, and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Washington, United States of America, including the Washington Uniform Commercial Code and the Washington Consumer Protection Act, RCW Chapter 19.86, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law rules or provisions that would cause the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction.

14.2 Federal Law. To the extent applicable, federal law of the United States of America shall also govern this Agreement, including without limitation the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq., with respect to the arbitration provisions set forth in Section 13.

14.3 United Nations Convention. The parties expressly agree that the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG) and the United Nations Convention on the Limitation Period in the International Sale of Goods shall not apply to this Agreement or to any Dispute arising hereunder.

SECTION 15. SEVERABILITY

15.1 Severability of Provisions. If any provision of this Agreement is held by a court or arbitrator of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, unenforceable, or contrary to public policy for any reason, such provision shall be deemed severed from this Agreement to the minimum extent necessary, and the remainder of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect as if such invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein. The parties agree that the court or arbitrator shall have the authority to modify any such invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provision to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid, legal, and enforceable, consistent with the original intent of the parties.

15.2 Class Action Waiver Severability. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the class action waiver in Section 13.4 is found to be invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part, then the arbitration provision in Section 13.2 shall be null and void with respect to any Dispute to which the class action waiver does not apply, and such Dispute shall be litigated in court in accordance with Section 13.7.

SECTION 16. ENTIRE AGREEMENT

16.1 Integration. This Agreement, together with the Privacy Policy and any other legal notices, policies, or supplemental terms published by the Company on the Website or otherwise applicable to the Services, constitutes the entire agreement between you and Code Quest LLC with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous understandings, agreements, representations, warranties, negotiations, proposals, communications, and arrangements, whether oral or written, between the parties relating to such subject matter.

16.2 No Reliance on External Representations. You acknowledge and agree that you have not relied upon any statement, representation, warranty, or promise made by or on behalf of the Company that is not expressly set forth in this Agreement. Any terms included in a purchase order, order confirmation, or other document issued by you that are inconsistent with or in addition to the terms of this Agreement are hereby rejected and shall have no force or effect.

16.3 Relationship of the Parties. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to create a partnership, joint venture, agency, employment, or fiduciary relationship between you and the Company. Neither party has any authority to bind the other party in any respect, and each party shall be and remain an independent party with respect to all services and activities performed hereunder.

SECTION 17. WAIVER

17.1 No Waiver by Failure to Enforce. No failure or delay by the Company to exercise any right, remedy, power, or privilege under this Agreement, and no course of dealing between you and the Company, shall operate as or be deemed a waiver of any such right, remedy, power, or privilege by the Company. No single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power, or privilege by the Company shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power, or privilege. No waiver by the Company of any breach or default of any provision of this Agreement shall be deemed a waiver of any subsequent breach or default of the same or any other provision.

17.2 Written Waiver Required. Any waiver of any right, remedy, power, or privilege under this Agreement by the Company must be in writing and signed by a duly authorized representative of the Company in order to be legally effective. Any purported oral waiver by any representative of the Company shall be deemed null and void and of no legal effect.
