• Governing Law. With respect to any Claims (as defined below) arising exclusively under this Agreement (and not any applicable Rental Agreement), all terms and conditions of this Agreement shall be interpreted, construed, and enforced pursuant to the laws of the State of South Carolina without giving effect to the conflict of laws and/or provisions of such State.

• Mandatory Arbitration Agreement. Renter and WTP Car Rentals each waive their right to a jury trial or to participate in a class action pursuant to the following terms. Renter and WTP Car Rentals agree to arbitrate any and all claims, controversies, or disputes of any kind (“Claims”) against each other arising out of or relating in any way to this Agreement, including, but not limited to, claims relating to WTP Car Rentals' products and services, charges, advertisements, or vehicles. For the purposes of this dispute resolution provision, “Renter” also includes any Authorized Driver under the Agreement, and any of Renter’s agents, beneficiaries, or assigns, or anyone acting on behalf of the foregoing, and “WTP Car Rentals” also includes any of its employees, agents, affiliates, parents, subsidiaries, beneficiaries, assigns, and vendors, including but not limited to its service providers and marketing partners. Renter and WTP Car Rentals agree that no claims will be pursued or resolved as part of a class action, private attorney general or other representative action or proceeding, that no arbitration forum will have jurisdiction to decide any claims on a class-wide, collective, or consolidated basis, and that no rules or other procedures for class-wide or collective arbitration will apply. This Section 10(b) is to be broadly interpreted and applies to all Claims based in contract, tort, statute, or any other legal theory, and all Claims that arose prior to or after termination of this Agreement. However, the Parties agree that either Party may bring an individual action in a small claims court with valid jurisdiction, provided that the action remains in that court (other than any appeal of the small claims court ruling), is made on behalf of or against Renter only, and is not made part of a class action, private attorney general action, or other representative or collective action. The Parties also agree that Claims against or by a third-party insurance company ostensibly providing coverage to Renter or any other Authorized Driver or the application of WTP Car Rentals' financial responsibility relating to the use or operation of Vehicles may be brought in a court with valid jurisdiction.

•  Procedure. A Party must send a written Notice of Dispute (“Notice”) describing: (A) the nature and basis of the Claim; and (B) the relief sought, to the other Party. The Notice to WTP Car Rentals should be addressed to: WTP Car Rentals, 701 Easley Bridge Rd Building 6000, STE 6070, Greenville, SC 29611. If WTP Car Rentals and Renter do not resolve the Claim within thirty (30) days after the Notice is received, a Party may commence an arbitration by filing a demand for arbitration with the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) pursuant to its Consumer Arbitration Rules. Claims will be resolved pursuant to the AAA’s Consumer Arbitration Rules in effect at the time of the demand, as modified by this Agreement. However, a single arbitrator will be selected according to AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules. The arbitrator will conduct hearings, if any, by teleconference or videoconference, rather than by personal appearances, unless the arbitrator determines upon request by Renter or by WTP Car Rentals that an in-person hearing is appropriate. Any in-person appearances will be held at a location which is reasonably convenient to both Parties with due consideration of their ability to travel and other pertinent circumstances. If the Parties are unable to agree on a location, such determination should be made by the AAA or by the arbitrator. The AAA rules are available online at www.adr.org. Except as required by law, neither a Party nor an arbitrator may disclose the existence, content, or results of any dispute or arbitration hereunder without the prior written consent of both Parties.

• •Arbitrator’s Authority. The arbitrator is bound by this Agreement, the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”), and AAA’s Consumer Arbitration Rules. The arbitrator has no authority to join or consolidate Claims, or adjudicate joined and consolidated Claims. The arbitrator has exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the scope, interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of this Agreement, including whether it is void. The Parties agree that the arbitrator’s decision and award will be final and binding and may be confirmed or challenged in any court with jurisdiction as permitted under the FAA. The arbitrator can award the same damages and relief as a court, but only in favor of an individual Party and for a Party’s individual Claim.

• Arbitration Costs. Renter will be responsible for his/her share of any administrative arbitration fees (e.g., filing, administrative, etc.), but only up to the amount of filing fees Renter would incur if the Claim were filed in court. WTP Car Rentals will be responsible for all additional administrative arbitration fees. Renter is responsible for all other costs/fees that it incurs in arbitration (e.g., fees for attorneys, expert witnesses, etc.). Renter will not be required to reimburse WTP Car Rentals for any fees unless the arbitrator finds that the substance of Renter’s Claim(s) or the relief sought is frivolous. If the arbitrator makes such a finding, AAA Rules will govern the payment of all fees, and WTP Car Rentals may seek reasonable attorney’s fees. WTP Car Rentals will pay all fees and costs it is required by law to pay.

• Governing Law and Enforcement. Notwithstanding anything in Section 10(a), this Section 10(b) is made pursuant to a transaction involving interstate commerce and shall be governed by the FAA, 9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if any portion of this Section 10(b) is deemed to be invalid or unenforceable or is found not to apply to a Claim, the remainder of Section 10(b) shall remain in full force and effect; provided, that, if the class-arbitration waiver provision is deemed unenforceable, any class action Claim(s) must proceed in a court of competent jurisdiction.
