These Terms shall be governed in all respects by the laws of the State of California as they apply to agreements entered into and to be performed entirely within California between California residents, without regard to conflict of law provisions.

  2. b) Arbitration Option. For any claim (excluding claims for injunctive or other equitable relief) where the total amount of the award sought is less than $10,000, the party requesting relief may elect to resolve the dispute in a cost effective manner through binding non-appearance-based arbitration. In the event a party elects arbitration, they shall initiate such arbitration through an established alternative dispute resolution ("ADR") provider mutually agreed upon by the parties. The ADR provider and the parties must comply with the following rules: i) the arbitration shall be conducted by telephone, online and/or be solely based on written submissions, the specific manner shall be chosen by the party initiating the arbitration; ii) the arbitration shall not involve any personal appearance by the parties or witnesses unless otherwise mutually agreed by the parties; and iii) any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.
  3. c) Improperly Filed Claims. All claims You bring against Origo Networks must be resolved in accordance with this Section 19.4 (Dispute Resolution). All claims filed or brought contrary to this Section 19.4 (Dispute Resolution) shall be considered improperly filed. Should You file a claim contrary to this Section 19.4 (Dispute Resolution), Origo Networks may recover attorneys' fees and costs up to $1000, provided that Origo Networks has notified You in writing of the improperly filed claim, and You have failed to promptly withdraw the claim.
5. 5. Severability.
  If any provision of these Terms or any Policies is held to be unlawful, void, or for any reason unenforceable, then that provision will be limited or eliminated from these Terms to the minimum extent necessary and will not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions.
