Section 16.03   Class Actions

YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT YOU AND PANDAECS ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO JOIN ANY PURPORTED CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT, ARBITRATION, OR ANY OTHER SIMILAR PROCEEDING (“Class Action Waiver”). The arbitrator shall have no authority to consider or resolve any Claim or issue any relief on any basis other than an individual basis. The exception to banning a class proceeding is the California Private Attorney General Act (PAGA), addressed below. You and we agree not to bring a representative action on behalf of others under PAGA, in any proceeding and for any attorney general claim thereunder you and we agree that any such claim shall be resolved in arbitration on an individual basis only. If any portion of this PAGA Waiver is found unenforceable: the unenforceable provision shall be severed from these Terms; and severance of such provision shall not impact the Arbitration Agreement.
