THE FOREGOING LIMITATION OF LIABILITY SHALL APPLY IN ANY ACTION, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER CLAIM, EVEN IF AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF RASTELLI’S HAS BEEN ADVISED OF OR SHOULD HAVE KNOWLEDGE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

22. Disputes and Arbitration

We hope to make you a happy and satisfied customer, but if there is a dispute that needs to be resolved, this section outlines what is expected of both of us.

22.1.   You Agree to Provide Rastelli’s an Opportunity Informally to Resolve Your Dispute. Before you may pursue or participate in a dispute (or raise such dispute as a defense) in any court or arbitration against Rastelli’s or its Associates for any claims, including claims related in any way to Rastelli’s products, these Terms, billing, privacy, advertising, or Rastelli’s or its Associates' communications with you, you must first send a written description of your claim to: Rastelli Foods DTC, LLC, Rastelli Foods DTC, 300 Heron Drive, Swedesboro, NJ, 08085, Attention: Legal and you must allow Rastelli’s a reasonable opportunity to resolve your dispute. Your written notice must describe the problem in reasonable detail, and identify or enclose all relevant documents and information. You and Rastelli’s agree to negotiate in good faith with each other to try to resolve your claim. If you and Rastelli’s do not reach a resolution of your dispute within sixty (60) days after Rastelli’s receives your written notice of claim, you may pursue your claim in arbitration or, solely to the extent specifically provided below, in court.

22.2.   Arbitration. You and Rastelli’s agree to arbitrate all disputes between the parties, except as provided in this subsection (b). Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, allows for more limited discovery than in court, and is subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. This arbitration agreement covers any dispute arising out of or relating to any aspect of the relationship between us, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation or any other legal theory, even if the claim arises or may arise before or after the term. For purposes of this arbitration provision, references to "Rastelli’s," "you," and "us" includes our Associates. This agreement evidences a transaction in interstate commerce, and the Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this provision.

Notwithstanding the arbitration agreement set forth in the prior paragraph, if you fail to pay in full any amounts you owe when they are due, Rastelli’s may assign your account for collection, and Rastelli’s and/or the collection agency may pursue in court claims limited to the collection of past due amounts and any interest or cost of collection permitted by law or these Terms. (However, Rastelli’s disclaims any and all liability, and you relieve Rastelli’s from any and all liability, with respect to the conduct of any such collection agency.) In addition, Rastelli’s may seek injunctive relief in any court with respect to any violation of a patent, trademark, service mark, copyright, trade secret, and/or other intellectual property rights of Rastelli’s or of any third party. 

YOU MAY CHOOSE TO PURSUE YOUR CLAIM IN COURT AND NOT BY ARBITRATION IF YOU OPT OUT OF THESE ARBITRATION PROCEDURES WITHIN THIRTY (30) DAYS FROM THE DATE YOU FIRST ACCESS OR OTHERWISE USE THE SITES OR ANY INFORMATION OR MATERIALS CONTAINED ON THE SITES (THE "OPT-OUT DEADLINE"). YOU MAY OPT OUT BY WRITING TO US AT EITHER OF THE FOLLOWING ADDRESSES:

Rastelli Foods DTC, LLC, 300 Heron Drive, Swedesboro, NJ, 08085, Attention: Legal

Or

Help@Rastellis.com

Either you or Rastelli’s may start an arbitration proceeding by sending to the other, by certified mail, a letter requesting arbitration ("Demand"). If you start the arbitration, you must send the Demand to Rastelli Foods DTC, 300 Heron Drive, Swedesboro, NJ, 08085, Attention: Legal. The Demand must (i) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute and (ii) set forth the relief sought.

The American Arbitration Association's ("AAA") Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes (collectively, the "AAA Rules"), as modified by these Terms, will govern the arbitration. The AAA Rules are available online at www.adr.org, or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879. If your claim is for $10,000 or less, we agree that you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator, through a telephonic hearing, or by an in-person hearing under the AAA Rules. If your claim exceeds $10,000, the right to a hearing will be determined by the AAA Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator shall issue a written opinion sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision is based.

Each party shall be responsible for its own administrative fees, costs and expense related to the arbitration, as provided for in the AAA rules. Arbitrator compensation is subject to allocation by an arbitrator in an award and is also governed by the AAA rules.

All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, except those issues relating to the scope and enforceability of the arbitration provision are for a court to decide. Unless Rastelli’s and you agree otherwise in writing, any arbitration hearings will take place in the AAA offices located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

One arbitrator, who is selected under the AAA Rules and who has expertise in consumer disputes in the retail food industry, will conduct the arbitration. If no arbitrator possessing such expertise is available, then the arbitration will be conducted by a single arbitrator who is selected by the mutual written approval of you and Rastelli’s. The decisions of the arbitrator will be binding and conclusive on all parties. Judgment upon any award of the arbitrator may be entered by any court of competent jurisdiction. This provision will be specifically enforceable in any court. THE ARBITRATOR MUST FOLLOW THIS AGREEMENT AND CAN AWARD THE SAME DAMAGES AND RELIEF AS A COURT (INCLUDING ATTORNEYS' FEES).

You or Rastelli’s must bring any claim arising out of or related to these Terms or our relationship within one (1) year after the claim arises, or the claim will be permanently barred. To the extent the applicable law applicable makes this limitations period unenforceable with respect to any claim(s), then the statutes of limitations of the State whose laws govern these Terms under Section 23 shall apply.

YOU AND RASTELLI’S AGREE THAT ANY DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCEEDINGS WILL BE CONDUCTED ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT IN A CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. NEITHER YOU NOR RASTELLI’S SHALL BE A MEMBER IN A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR PROCEEDING, AND THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD RELIEF ONLY IN FAVOR OF THE INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING RELIEF AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE RELIEF WARRANTED BY THAT PARTY'S INDIVIDUAL CLAIM.

IF YOU TIMELY OPT OUT OF THE ARBITRATION PROVISION IN THE MANNER DESCRIBED ABOVE, THEN THE WAIVER OF THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION WILL NOT APPLY TO YOU. RASTELLI’S DOES NOT CONSENT TO CLASS ARBITRATION; ACCORDINGLY, IF A COURT REFUSES TO ENFORCE THIS SUBSECTION (b), THEN THE AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE SHALL BE UNENFORCEABLE AS TO YOU. WHETHER A CLAIM PROCEEDS IN COURT OR IN ARBITRATION, YOU AND RASTELLI’S HEREBY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL.

 

23. Governing Law and Venue.

These Terms, and any disputes arising between you and Rastelli’s related in any way to these Terms or Rastelli’s Services, including but not limited to disputes over billing, service, privacy, advertising, or Rastelli’s or its Associates' communications with you, whether based on contract, tort, statute, or common law, will be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to choice of law principles.

Any dispute arising out of, or related to, these Terms or Rastelli Food’s Services that is not subject to arbitration or cannot be heard in small claims court, shall be resolved exclusively in the state or federal courts of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and the United States, respectively, sitting in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. You waive any and all objections to the exercise of jurisdiction over you by such courts and to venue in such courts.

26. Deverability and Waiver

If any of these Terms are determined by any competent jurisdiction to be invalid, unlawful or unenforceable to any extent, such term, condition or provision will to that extent be severed from the remaining terms, conditions, and provisions which will continue to be valid to the fullest extent permitted by law.

No waiver by Rastelli’s provision in these Terms shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such provision or a waiver of any other provision, and any failure to assert a right or provision under these Terms does not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.

 

27. Miscellaneous

These Terms and any document expressly referred to in them constitute the whole agreement between you and Rastelli’s, and supersede all previous discussions, correspondence, negotiations, arrangements, understandings, or agreements between us relating to the subject matter of any contract. These Terms, and any rights and licenses granted hereunder, may not be transferred or assigned by you without the prior written consent of Rastelli’s. Except as otherwise provided herein, these Terms are intended solely for the benefit of the parties and are not intended to confer third party beneficiary rights upon any other person or entity.
