24. Dispute Resolution Provisions. The Agreement shall be treated as though it were executed and performed in New York, New York and shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York (without regard to conflict of law principles) and any proceeding arising in connection with the Agreement may only be brought under the statutes and common law of the State of New York. The parties (and Covered Parties) hereby agree to arbitrate all claims that may arise under the Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, should a dispute arise between you and either Laura Geller® or any Covered Party concerning the Laura Geller® Offerings, the terms and conditions of the Agreement or the breach of same by any party hereto: (a) each party agrees to submit their dispute for resolution by arbitration before JAMS, in accordance with the then current General Arbitration Rules & Procedures of JAMS; provided, however, that Laura Geller® reserves the right to require that any and all user claims be combined and conducted under the JAMS Mass Arbitration Procedures and Guidelines where there are seventy-five (75) or more arbitration demands pending against Laura Geller® that are similar to the demand for arbitration submitted by you; and (b) you agree to first commence a formal dispute proceeding by completing and submitting an Initial Dispute Notice which can be found here. The applicable Covered Party(ies) named in the arbitration proceeding (collectively, the “Named Parties”) may choose to provide you with a final written settlement offer after receiving your Initial Dispute Notice (“Final Settlement Offer”). If the applicable Named Party(ies) provide(s) you with a Final Settlement Offer and you do not accept it, or such Named Party(ies) cannot otherwise satisfactorily resolve your dispute and you wish to proceed, you must: (i) provide Laura Geller® with proof that you accessed the Site and provided consent to the Agreement; and, thereafter (ii) submit your dispute for resolution by arbitration before JAMS, in your county of residence, by filing a separate Demand for Arbitration, which is available here. For claims of Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000.00) or less, you can choose whether the arbitration proceeds in person, by telephone or based only on submissions. If the arbitrator awards you relief that is greater than the applicable Final Settlement Offer, then the applicable Named Party(ies) will pay all filing, administration and arbitrator fees associated with the arbitration and, if you retained an attorney to represent you in connection with the arbitration, the applicable Named Party(ies) will reimburse any reasonable attorneys’ fees that your attorney accrued for investigating, preparing and pursuing the claim in arbitration. Any award rendered shall be final and conclusive to the parties and a judgment thereon may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Although the Named Parties may have a right to an award of attorneys’ fees and expenses if they prevail in arbitration, the Named Parties will not seek such an award from you unless the arbitrator determines that your claim was frivolous.
To the extent permitted by law, and other than where Laura Geller® requires same as set forth above, you agree that you will not bring, join or participate in any class action lawsuit as to any claim, dispute or controversy that you may have against Laura Geller®, any Covered Party(ies), and/or their respective employees, officers, directors, members, representatives and/or assigns. You agree to the entry of injunctive relief to stop such a lawsuit or to remove you as a participant in the suit. You agree to pay the attorney’s fees and court costs that Laura Geller® and/or the applicable Named Party(ies) incur(s) in seeking such relief. This provision preventing you from bringing, joining or participating in class action lawsuits: (i) does not constitute a waiver of any of your rights or remedies to pursue a claim individually and not as a class action in binding arbitration as provided above; and (ii) is an independent agreement. You may opt-out of these dispute resolution provisions by providing written notice of your decision within thirty (30) days of the date that you first access the Site.

26. California Proposition 65 Warnings. Proposition 65, officially the Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986, is a law that requires warnings be provided to California consumers when they might be exposed to chemicals identified by California lawmakers as causing cancer or reproductive toxicity. The warnings are intended to help California State consumers make informed decisions about their exposures to these chemicals from the products they use. The California Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (“OEHHA”) administers the Proposition 65 program and publishes the listed chemicals, which includes more than 850 chemicals. In August 2016, OEHHA adopted new regulations, effective on August 30, 2018, which change the information required in Proposition 65 warnings.
Canned and Bottled Foods and Beverages
California requires the following notice:
WARNING: Laura Geller® Product containers may have linings containing bisphenol A (“BPA”), a chemical known to the State of California to cause harm to the female reproductive system. Jar lids and bottle caps may also contain BPA. You can be exposed to BPA when you consume foods or beverages packaged in these containers. For more information go to: www.P65Warnings.ca.gov/BPA.
