You or KBC, must be brought in an individual capacity, and shall not be brought
as a plaintiff (or claimant) or class member in any purported class or
representative proceeding, nor joined or consolidated with the claims of any

than one person or entity, and may not preside over any form of representative
or class proceeding. The Ambassador Terms are made under the provisions of the
Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C., Sections 1-14) ("FAA") and will be
construed and governed accordingly. The parties agree that the procedural and
the substantive provisions of the FAA shall apply. Nothing herein shall
prevent any party from obtaining injunctive relief in court to prevent
irreparable harm pending the conclusion of any such arbitration. Both parties
may conduct discovery to the same extent as would be permitted in a court of
law. The arbitrator shall issue a reasoned, written decision that
explains the legal and factual basis for the arbitrator's decision on all
claims and defenses presented to the arbitrator. The arbitrator shall
have the full authority to award all relief and remedies which would otherwise
be available in a court of law, including, but not limited to, monetary
damages, attorneys' fees, costs, and exemplary damages when authorized by
applicable law. Any awards or orders in such arbitrations may be entered
and enforced as judgments in the federal and state courts of any competent
jurisdiction. KBC agrees to pay all fees, costs, or other charges unique
to arbitration including, but not limited to, the arbitrator’s fees.
Otherwise, KBC and You shall each be responsible for its/Your own costs and
expenses in connection with the arbitration. The Ambassador Terms can be
amended only by a written agreement signed by You and KBC. Each party
agrees to do all such acts, matters, and things and shall sign or execute and
deliver all such documents as may in the reasonable opinion of the other party
be necessary or expedient to further and more effectually carry into effect the
provisions of the Ambassador Terms.
