11. DISPUTE
RESOLUTION; BINDING ARBITRATION
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY
BECAUSE IT REQUIRES YOU AND LUCKY BRAND TO ARBITRATE CERTAIN DISPUTES AND
CLAIMS AND LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU AND LUCKY BRAND CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM
EACH OTHER. ARBITRATION PRECLUDES YOU AND LUCKY BRAND FROM SUING IN COURT OR
HAVING A JURY TRIAL. YOU AND LUCKY BRAND AGREE THAT ARBITRATION WILL BE SOLELY
ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT AS A CLASS ARBITRATION, CLASS ACTION, OR ANY
OTHER KIND OF REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. LUCKY BRAND AND YOU ARE EACH WAIVING
THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY A JURY.
THE PARTIES TO THESE TERMS
ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE TERMS OF THIS SECTION ARE INTENDED TO REDUCE THE FINANCIAL
BURDENS ASSOCIATED WITH RESOLVING THEIR DISPUTES AND ARE NOT INTENDED TO DELAY
ADJUDICATION OF ANY PARTY’S CLAIMS.
FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS BELOW, IN
SECTION (K), IF YOU WISH TO OPT OUT OF THE REQUIREMENT OF ARBITRATION ON AN
INDIVIDUAL BASIS.
a.
Claims To
Which This Section Applies. The
dispute resolution and binding arbitration terms in this section apply to all
Claims between you and Lucky Brand. A “Claim” is any dispute, claim, or
controversy (excluding those exceptions listed below) between you and Lucky
Brand, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or
any other legal theory, that either party wishes to seek legal recourse for and
that arises from or relates to these Terms or Lucky Brand products or services,
including any privacy or data-security claims or claims related to the
validity, enforceability, or scope of the arbitration requirement or any
portion of it. These Terms, however, do not prevent you from bringing a Claim
to the attention of any government agency.
b.
Informal
Dispute Resolution Prior to Arbitration.
If you have a Claim against Lucky Brand or if Lucky Brand has a Claim against
you, you and Lucky Brand will first attempt to resolve the Claim informally for
faster resolution and to reduce costs for both parties. You and Lucky
Brand will make good-faith effort to negotiate the resolution of any Claim for
60 days, or such longer period as mutually agreed in writing (email suffices)
by the parties, (“Informal Resolution Period”) from the day either party
receives a written notice of a dispute from the other party (a “Claimant
Notice”) in accordance with these Terms.
You
will send any Claimant Notice to Lucky Brand by overnight mail addressed to Lucky
OpCo LLC, Attn: Legal Department, 6501 Legacy Drive, Suite B-100 Plano, TX
75024 with a copy by email to legal@sparcgroup.com.
Lucky Brand will send any Claimant Notice to you by overnight mail or email
using the contact information you have provided to Lucky Brand. The Claimant
Notice sent by either party must include (i) the sender’s name, address, email
address, and telephone number; (ii) describe the nature and basis of the Claim;
(iii) set forth the specific relief sought; and
(iv) if an item is at issue, the item(s) purchased and date and location of
such purchase.
The Informal Resolution Period is designed to allow the
party who has received a Claimant Notice to make a fair, fact-based offer of
settlement if it chooses to do so.
You
or Lucky Brand can file a Claim in arbitration only after the end of the
Informal Resolution Period. You or Lucky Brand cannot proceed to arbitration
before the end of the Informal Resolution Period. If you or Lucky Brand file a
Claim in court or proceed to arbitration without complying with the
requirements in this section, including waiting until the conclusion of the
Informal Resolution Period, the other party reserves the right to seek relief
from a court to enjoin the filing and seek damages from the party that has not
followed the requirements in this section to reimburse it for any arbitration
fees and costs already incurred as a foreseeable consequence of that
breach.
The
statute of limitations and any filing fee deadlines for a Claim will be tolled
for the duration of the Informal Resolution Period for that Claim so that the
parties can engage in this informal dispute-resolution process.
c.
Claims
Subject to Binding Arbitration; Exceptions. Except
for individual disputes that qualify for small claims court (provided that the
small-claims court does not permit class or similar representative actions or
relief) and any disputes exclusively related to the intellectual property or
intellectual-property rights of you or Lucky Brand, including any disputes in
which you or Lucky Brand seek injunctive or other equitable relief for the
alleged unlawful use of your or Lucky Brand’s intellectual property or other
infringement of your or Lucky Brand’s intellectual property rights (“IP
Claims”), all Claims, including Claims that are not related to intellectual
property or intellectual-property rights but are jointly filed with IP Claims,
that are not resolved in accordance with section(b) will be resolved by a
neutral arbitrator through final and binding arbitration instead of in a court
by a judge or jury. Such Claims include, without limitation, disputes arising
out of or relating to interpretation or application of this arbitration
provision, including the enforceability, revocability, or validity of the
arbitration provision or any portion of the arbitration provision. The
arbitrator will have the authority to grant any remedy or relief that would
otherwise be available in court.
d.
Binding
Individual Arbitration. Subject
to the terms of this section, Claims may only be settled by binding individual
arbitration conducted by the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”),
https://adr.org/, according to the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1, et
seq., (“FAA”). For Claims arbitrated by the AAA, if you are a “Consumer,”
the then-current version of the AAA’s Consumer Arbitration Rules are the rules
applicable to Claims between you and Lucky Brand as modified by these Terms
(the “Rules”). For Claims arbitrated by the AAA, if you are not a
Consumer, the then-current version of the AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules
and Mediation Procedures are the Rules applicable to Claims between you and
Lucky Brand as modified by these Terms. The Rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1- 800-778-7879.
These
Terms affect interstate commerce, and the enforceability of this section will
be substantively and procedurally governed by the FAA to the extent permitted
by law. As limited by the FAA, these Terms, and the Rules, the arbitrator will
have exclusive authority to make all procedural and substantive decisions
regarding any Claim and to grant any remedy that would otherwise be available
in court, including the power to determine the question of arbitrability. To
the fullest extent allowed by applicable law, the arbitrator may only award
legal or equitable remedies that are individual to you or Lucky Brand to satisfy
one of our individual Claims (that the arbitrator determines are supported by
credible relevant evidence). To the extent that you prevail on a Claim and seek
public injunctive relief (that is, injunctive relief whose primary purpose and
effect is to prohibit and enjoin conduct harmful to the general 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 Claims in arbitration.
e.
Arbitration
Procedure and Location. You or
Lucky Brand may initiate arbitration of any Claim not resolved during the
Informal Resolution Period and not excluded under this section(c) by filing a
demand for arbitration with AAA in accordance with the Rules. Instructions for
filing a demand for with AAA are available on the AAA website. You will send a
copy of any demand for arbitration to Lucky Brand by overnight mail addressed
to Lucky OpCo LLC, Attn: Legal Department, 6501 Legacy Drive, Suite B-100
Plano, TX 75024 with a copy by email legal@sparcgroup.com. Lucky Brand will send any demand for arbitration to you by
overnight mail or email using the contact information you have provided to
Lucky Brand.
The
arbitration will be conducted by a single arbitrator in the English language.
You and Lucky Brand both agree that the arbitrator will be bound by these Terms. For
Claims in which the claimant seeks less than USD $10,000, the arbitrator will
decide the matter solely based on written submissions, without a formal
hearing, unless the arbitrator decides that a formal hearing is necessary. For
Claims in which the claimant seeks USD $10,000 or more, or smaller matters in
which the arbitrator determines a hearing to be necessary, hearings will be
conducted by video or telephone, unless the arbitrator determines an in-person
hearing to be necessary. If an in-person hearing is required and you reside in
the United States, the hearing will take place in New York, New York unless you
are a Consumer and the arbitrator determines that this would pose a hardship
for you, in which case the in-person hearing may be conducted in the claimant’s
state and county of residence. If you reside outside the United States, the
site of any in-person hearing will be determined by the applicable
Rules.
The
arbitrator (not a judge or jury) will resolve all Claims in arbitration. Unless
you and Lucky Brand agree otherwise, any decision or award will include a
written statement stating the decision of each Claim and the basis for the
award, including the arbitrator’s essential factual and legal findings and
conclusions.
An
arbitration award, and any judgment confirming it, apply only to that specific
case; it cannot be used or offered as precedent in any other case except to
enforce the award itself unless the parties agree prior to issuance of the
award. Any arbitration decision or award may be enforced as a final judgment by
any court of competent jurisdiction or, if applicable, application may be made
to such court for judicial confirmation of any award and an order of
enforcement.
f.
Arbitration
Fees. Each party will be responsible for
arbitration fees in accordance with the applicable Rules and these
Terms.
g.
Frivolous
or Improper Claims. To the extent permitted by
applicable law, a claimant must pay all costs incurred by the responding party,
including any attorney fees, related to a Claim if an arbitrator determines
that (i) the Claim was frivolous or (ii) the Claim was filed in arbitration for
any improper purpose, such as to harass the defending party, cause unnecessary
delay, or needlessly increase the cost of dispute resolution.
h.
Confidentiality.
If you or Lucky Brand serve a
Claimant Notice or submit a Claim to arbitration, you and Lucky Brand agree to
cooperate to seek protection (from the arbitrator or otherwise) for any
confidential, proprietary, trade-secret, or otherwise sensitive information,
documents, testimony, and other materials that might be exchanged or the
subject of any discovery. You and Lucky Brand agree to seek such protection
before any such information, documents, testimony, or materials are exchanged
or otherwise become the subject of discovery.
i.
One Year
to Assert Claims. To the extent permitted by law, any
Claim by you or Lucky Brand against the other must be filed within one year
after such Claim arises; otherwise, the Claim is permanently barred, which
means that you or Lucky Brand will no longer have the right to assert that
Claim.
j.
Mass
Arbitrations. If 25 or more Claimant Notices are
received by a party that raise similar claims and have the same or coordinated
counsel, these will be considered “Mass Arbitrations” and will be
treated as mass arbitrations according to the AAA’s Mass Arbitration
Supplementary Rules, if and to the extent Mass Arbitrations are filed in
arbitration as set forth in these Terms. You or Lucky Brand may advise the
other of your or Lucky Brand’s belief that Claims are Mass Arbitrations, and
disputes over whether a Claim meets the definition of “Mass Arbitrations” will
be decided by the arbitration provider as an administrative matter. To the
extent either party is asserting the same Claim as other persons and are
represented by common or coordinated counsel, that party waives any objection
that the joinder of all such persons is impracticable. The following procedures
are intended to supplement the AAA’s Mass Arbitration Supplementary Rules, and
to the extent the procedures conflict with those Rules, to supersede
them.
Mass
Arbitrations may only be filed in arbitration as permitted by the process set
forth below. Applicable statutes of limitations will be tolled for Claims
asserted in Mass Arbitrations from the time a compliant Claimant Notice has
been received by a party until these Terms permit such Mass Arbitration to be
filed in arbitration or court.
Initial
Bellwether: The bellwether process set forth
in this section will not proceed until counsel representing the Mass
Arbitrations has advised the other party in writing (email suffices) that all
or substantially all the Claimant Notices for the Mass Arbitrations have been
submitted.
After
that point, counsel for the parties will select 20 Mass Arbitrations to proceed
in arbitration as a bellwether to allow each side to test the merits of its
arguments. Each side will select 10 claimants who have provided compliant
Claimant Notices for this purpose, and only those chosen cases may be filed
with the arbitration provider. The parties acknowledge that resolution of some
Mass Arbitrations will be delayed by this bellwether process. Any remaining
Mass Arbitrations shall not be filed or deemed filed in arbitration, nor shall
any arbitration fees be assessed in connection with those Claims, unless and
until they are selected to be filed in individual arbitration proceedings as
set out in this section.
A
single arbitrator will preside over each Mass Arbitration chosen for a
bellwether proceeding, and only one Mass Arbitration may be assigned to each
arbitrator as part of a bellwether process unless the parties agree otherwise.
Each Mass Arbitration chosen for a bellwether will otherwise be subject to the
terms of this section generally applicable to Claims filed in
arbitration.
Mediation: Once the arbitrations that are part of the bellwether
process have concluded (or sooner if the claimants and the other party agree),
counsel for the parties must engage in a single mediation of all remaining Mass
Arbitrations, with the mediator’s fee paid for by Lucky Brand. Counsel for the
claimants and the other party must agree on a mediator within 30 days after the
conclusion of the last bellwether arbitration. If counsel for the claimants and
the other party cannot agree on a mediator within 30 days, the arbitration
provider will appoint a mediator as an administrative matter. All parties will
cooperate for the purpose of ensuring that the mediation is scheduled as
quickly as practicable after the mediator is appointed.
Remaining
Claims: If the mediation process concludes
with 100 or more unresolved Mass Arbitrations remaining, any party to a
remaining Mass Arbitration may elect to no longer have the arbitration
requirement in this section apply to all remaining Mass Arbitrations for which
a compliant Claimant Notice was received by the other party but that were not
resolved in the bellwether process or global mediation. To be effective, such
an election must be communicated in writing (email suffices) to counsel for the
opposing party (or to the opposing party if they do not have counsel) within 30
days of mediation concluding. Mass Arbitrations released from the arbitration
requirement must be resolved in accordance with the Governing Law and Venue
section of these Terms.
If
the mediation process concludes with fewer than 100 Mass Arbitrations remaining
or if no party makes a timely election as provided for in the previous
paragraph, the AAA will randomly select 50 Mass Arbitrations (or the total
remaining amount if less than 50) to proceed in arbitration as a second batch.
The AAA will randomly select eligible claimants who have provided compliant
Claimant Notices for this purpose, and only those chosen cases may be filed
with the arbitration provider. A single arbitrator will preside over each Mass
Arbitration chosen for this second batch, and only one Mass Arbitration may be
assigned to each arbitrator as part of this second batch unless the parties
agree otherwise. Once all arbitrations in the foregoing process are complete,
the parties will repeat this process until all Mass Arbitrations have been
arbitrated. Each Mass Arbitration chosen for a batch will otherwise be subject
to the terms of this section generally applicable to Claims filed in
arbitration.
If
Mass Arbitrations released from the arbitration requirement are brought in
court, claimants may seek class treatment, but to the fullest extent allowed by
applicable law, the classes sought may comprise only the claimants in Mass
Arbitrations for which a compliant Claimant Notice was received by the other
party. Any party may contest class certification at any stage of the litigation
and on any available basis.
A
court will have authority to enforce the bellwether and mediation processes
defined in this section and may enjoin the filing of lawsuits or arbitration
demands not made in compliance with it.
k.
Opting

binding arbitration within 30 days of the date you first accepted these Terms
by emailing legal@sparcgroup.com.

be effective, the opt-out notice must be received by us within the 30-day

notice must also clearly indicate your intent to opt out of binding arbitration
to be valid. By opting out of binding arbitration, you are agreeing to resolve
disputes in accordance with the Governing Law and Venue section of these
Terms.
l. Rejection of Future Arbitration Changes. You may reject any change we make to this section (except
address changes) by sending us notice of your rejection within 30 days of the
change via email at legal@sparcgroup.com.
To be effective, your rejection must be received by us within the 30-day period
and must include your full name, mailing address, and email address and clearly
indicate your intent to reject changes. Changes to this section may only be

this section that you have not rejected will continue to apply.
m.
Severability. If any portion of this section is found to be unenforceable
or unlawful for any reason, including but not limited to because it is found to
be unconscionable, (i) the unenforceable or unlawful provision will be severed
from these Terms; (ii) severance of the unenforceable or unlawful provision
will have no impact whatsoever on the remainder of this section or the parties’
ability to compel arbitration of any remaining claims on an individual basis
pursuant to this section; and (iii) to the extent that any claims must
therefore proceed on a class, collective, consolidated, or representative
basis, such claims must be litigated in a civil court of competent
jurisdiction, in accordance with these Terms, and not in arbitration. The
litigation of those claims will be stayed pending the outcome of any individual
claims in arbitration. Further, if any part of this section is found to
prohibit an individual claim seeking public injunctive relief, that provision
will have no effect to the extent such relief is allowed to be sought out of
arbitration, and the remainder of this section will be enforceable.
