This arbitration agreement applies to disputes no matter when they arose, including claims that arose before you and we entered into this Agreement. This arbitration agreement also applies to disputes involving our officers, directors, managers, employees, agents, affiliates, insurers, technicians, owners, successors or assigns. In addition, this arbitration agreement covers any claims or causes of action against us or any and all HomeServe USA Corp. group affiliates (collectively, HomeServe) that you may assign or subrogate to an insurer. The American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) will administer the arbitration under its Consumer Arbitration Rules. The Federal Arbitration Act applies. Unless you and we agree otherwise, any arbitration hearings will take place in the county where your home is located.

By entering into this Agreement, all parties are waiving their respective rights to a trial by jury or to participate in a class or representative action.

E. BY AGREEING TO ARBITRATION, YOU ARE WAIVING YOUR RIGHT TO PROCEED IN COURT.
F. IF FOR ANY REASON A CLAIM OR DISPUTE PROCEEDS IN COURT RATHER THAN THROUGH ARBITRATION, YOU AND WE UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY. This jury trial waiver also applies to claims asserted against any of our officers, directors, managers, employees, agents, affiliates, insurers, technicians, owners, successors or assigns.
22. Should any of these terms and conditions conflict with the laws of your state they shall be considered amended to comply with those laws.
