d. Arbitration Procedures
Arbitration will be conducted by a neutral arbitrator in accordance with the American ArbitrationAssociation’s (“AAA”) rules and procedures, including the AAA’s Consumer Arbitration Rules (collectively,the “AAA Rules”), as modified by this Arbitration Agreement. For information on the AAA, please visit itswebsite, https://www.adr.org. Information about the AAA Rules and fees for consumer disputes can befound at the AAA’s consumer arbitration page, https://www.adr.org/consumer. If there is anyinconsistency between any term of the AAA Rules and any term of this Arbitration Agreement, theapplicable terms of this Arbitration Agreement will control unless the arbitrator determines that theapplication of the inconsistent Arbitration Agreement terms would not result in a fundamentally fairarbitration. The arbitrator must also follow the provisions of these Terms and Conditions as a court would.All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, including issues relating to the scope, enforceability, andarbitrability of this Arbitration Agreement. Although arbitration proceedings are usually simpler and morestreamlined than trials and other judicial proceedings, the arbitrator can award the same damages andrelief on an individual basis that a court can award to an individual under these Terms and Conditions andapplicable law. Decisions by the arbitrator are enforceable in court and may be overturned by a court onlyfor very limited reasons.
Unless Graceful and you agree otherwise, any arbitration hearings will take place in a reasonablyconvenient location for both parties with due consideration of their ability to travel and other pertinentcircumstances. If the parties are unable to agree on a location, the determination will be made by AAA. Ifyour claim is for $10,000 or less, Graceful agrees that you may choose whether the arbitration will beconducted solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator, through a telephonic hearing, orby an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules. If your claim exceeds $10,000, the right to ahearing will be determined by the AAA Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration isconducted, the arbitrator will issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findingsand conclusions on which the award is based.
e. Costs of Arbitration
Payment of all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees (collectively, the “Arbitration Fees”) will begoverned by the AAA Rules, unless otherwise provided in this Arbitration Agreement. To the extent anyArbitration Fees are not specifically allocated to either Graceful or you under the AAA Rules, Graceful andyou shall split them equally; provided that if you are able to demonstrate to the arbitrator that you areeconomically unable to pay your portion of such Arbitration Fees or if the arbitrator otherwise determinesfor any reason that you should not be required to pay your portion of any Arbitration Fees, Graceful willpay your portion of such fees. In addition, if you demonstrate to the arbitrator that the costs of arbitrationwill be prohibitive as compared to the costs of litigation, Graceful will pay as much of the Arbitration Feesas the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive. Any payment of

attorneys’ fees will be governed by the AAA Rules.
f. Confidentiality
All aspects of the arbitration proceeding, and any ruling, decision, or award by the arbitrator, will bestrictly confidential for the benefit of all parties.
g. Severability
If a court or the arbitrator decides that any term or provision of this Arbitration Agreement (other than thesubsection (b) above titled “Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-IndividualizedRelief” above) is invalid or unenforceable, the parties agree to replace such term or provision with a termor provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalidor unenforceable term or provision, and this Arbitration Agreement will be enforceable as so modified. If acourt or the arbitrator decides that any of the provisions of subsection (b) above titled “Prohibition of Classand Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief” are invalid or unenforceable, then the entiretyof this Arbitration Agreement will be null and void, unless such provisions are deemed to be invalid orunenforceable solely with respect to claims for public injunctive relief.
