The Courts of the County where Seller’s address is located shall be deemed the proper venue and exclusive jurisdiction for all disputes and to which venue and exclusive personal jurisdiction Buyer consents and subjects himself/herself. All claims shall be decided by binding arbitration by the American Arbitration Association pursuant to its rules and fee schedule. The non-prevailing party shall pay the prevailing party’s attorney’s fees as determined by the arbitrator. No claim or controversy shall be arbitratedon a class action and neither party may act pursuant to any class or similar designation.  \n10  \n3/5/2021  \nDefenses to Arbitration  \n􀀁 Unconscionable –  \n􀀁 Procedural unconscionability - the cl","cbCaipAnAV3q7xJt","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaipAnAV3q7xJt","pdf",319577,"English","# Outside Presenter Disclosure\n# Disclaimer\n## The Timeshare Contract - Clauses to Look For\n## Where is the term?\n## Fighting the never-ending term\n## The Problem with the Sales Pitch\n# Arbitration - I have to go where???\n## Actual (Condensed) Arbitration Clause\n## Defenses to Arbitration\n# Choice of State Law\n# Resale Clauses\n# Can I gift or sell my timeshare?\n# Maintenance Fees\n# Strategies","[{\"question\":\"What does the presenter disclosure say about the seminar materials?\",\"answer\":\"The materials state the presenter is not an employee of Rodgers \\u0026 Associates and their views are their own.
