IF BKFC IS UNABLE TO RESOLVE DISPUTES INFORMALLY, THEN, YOU AGREE AS FOLLOWS:
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ALL DISPUTES BETWEEN THE PARTIES SHALL BE SETTLED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE FOLLOWING PROCEDURES: (THESE ARE THE EXCLUSIVE PROCEDURES FOR RESOLVING DISPUTES IF WE ARE UNABLE TO RESOLVE THE DISPUTE INFORMALLY), EXCEPT THAT, TO THE EXTENT YOU HAVE IN ANY MANNER VIOLATED OR THREATENED TO VIOLATE BKFC INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS (FOR EXAMPLE, TRADEMARK, TRADE SECRET, COPYRIGHT, OR PATENT RIGHTS); UNDER SUCH CIRCUMSTANCES BKFC MAY BRING A LAWSUIT FOR INJUNCTIVE RELIEF TO STOP UNAUTHORIZED USE OR ABUSE OF THE SITE AND/OR THE BKFC APP , OR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY INFRINGEMENT (FOR EXAMPLE, TRADEMARK, TRADE SECRET, COPYRIGHT, OR PATENT RIGHTS) WITHOUT FIRST ENGAGING IN ARBITRATION OR THE INFORMAL DISPUTE-RESOLUTION PROCESS DESCRIBED BELOW.
•The party seeking to make a claim shall submit the claim to binding arbitration with the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"). The decision of the arbitrator shall be binding upon all parties and their respective successors and assigns, and may be reduced to a judgment or decree in a court of competent jurisdiction, if and only if the arbitrator's decision is in writing and presents detailed conclusions of fact and law.
•Either party to the arbitration may appeal any finding of law (but not of fact) to a court of competent jurisdiction.
•Each party shall bear its own costs and expenses in connection with the foregoing procedures regardless of which party prevails ; provided, however, that each party shall bear one-half the costs and expenses of the AAA and the arbitrator. The arbitrator shall not have the authority to award incidental, consequential or punitive damages, and you waive any right to have damages multiplied or otherwise increased.
•The arbitration shall take place exclusively in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and the parties waive any and all objections to that jurisdiction and venue.
•NO CLASS ACTIONS. You may only resolve disputes with BKFC on an individual basis, and may not bring a claim as a plaintiff or a class member in a class, consolidated, or representative action. Class arbitrations, class actions, private attorney general actions, and consolidation with other arbitrations aren't allowed

A. Waiver of Class and Representative Actions a. Any and all disputes, claims, or controversies (“Claims”) arising out of or relating to (i) this Agreement, (ii) the breach thereof, or (iii) any use of, or commercial transactions conducted through, the Site, the BKFC App , or Services shall be settled by binding arbitration before a single arbitrator appointed by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in accordance with its then governing rules and procedures (including the Supplemental Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes to the extent those procedures are applicable), provided however that a Claim for money damages only (and not for any declaratory or injunctive relief) may be filed in a small claims court solely on an individual, non-class, and non-representative basis.
B. You and BKFC waive all rights to a trial by jury in any action or proceeding involving any Claim in any forum.
C. Any arbitration of a Claim shall be held in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered by any court having jurisdiction. This arbitration undertaking 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. The parties agree that an award and any judgment confirming it applies only to the arbitration in which it was awarded and cannot be used in any other case or proceeding except to enforce the award itself. The arbitrator shall not have power or authority to award punitive damages, including treble damages that may otherwise be available.
D. Any and all claims shall be arbitrated on an individual, non-class, and non-representative basis only, and shall not be consolidated or joined with or in any arbitration or other proceeding involving a Claim of any other party. You and BKFC waive any right to have any Claim arbitrated or adjudicated as a class or representative action or in any other form other than on an individual basis. You and BKFC further agree that the arbitrator shall have no authority to arbitrate any Claim as a class or representative action or in any other form other than on an individual basis. The arbitrator shall have power and authority to award only individual, non-class, and non-representative legal and equitable relief available in the courts of the State of Pennsylvania. Notwithstanding any provision of the AAA’s rules and procedures, only the federal and state court, and not the arbitrator, shall have the power to determine compliance with this paragraph, including the interpretation, validity, and enforceability of each of the foregoing sentences.
E. You agree that BKFC may seek any interim or preliminary relief from a court of competent jurisdiction in Pennsylvania necessary to protect its rights or property pending the completion of arbitration.
F. If any Claim is determined not to be subject to arbitration, the exclusive jurisdiction and venue for proceedings concerning such Claim shall be the federal and state court of competent jurisdiction sitting within Pennsylvania, and the parties hereby waive (i) any right to a trial by jury with respect to any Claim in such proceeding (ii) any argument that the Forum or any court within it does not have personal jurisdiction, and (iii) any argument that the Forum is not appropriate or convenient. WOULD ELIMINATE ALL OTHER JURISDICTIONAL REFERENCES??
G. If either party initiates a proceeding involving any Claim other than (i) an arbitration in accordance with this Section or (ii) a proceeding in small claims court permitted by this Section, or if either party initiates a proceeding involving a Claim under paragraph F other than in the Forum, the other party shall recover all attorneys’ fees, costs, and expenses reasonably incurred in enforcing this agreement and the agreed Forum.
H. To the maximum extent permitted by law, you permanently and irrevocably waive the right to bring any Claim unless you provide BKFC with written notice of the event or facts giving rise to the Claim within one (1) year of their occurrence.
I. You and BKFC agree that this Section shall apply to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law and shall survive termination of this Agreement.
