For purposes of this Section 14, a “dispute” is any controversy between Client and eBanqo concerning the Services, any software related to the Services, the price of the Services, Client Account, eBanqo’s advertising, marketing, or communications, Client’s purchase transaction or billing, or any term of this Agreement, under any legal theory including contract, warranty, tort, statute, or regulation, except disputes relating to the enforcement or validity of Client’s or eBanqo’s intellectual property rights. As part of the best efforts process to resolve disputes, and prior to initiating arbitration proceedings, each party agrees to provide written notice (including to legal@ebanqo.com if Client is notifying eBanqo of such dispute) of the dispute to the other party, including a description of the dispute, what efforts have been made to resolve it, and what the disputing party is requesting as resolution (each, a “Dispute Notice”). Within 10 business days after the date of the Dispute Notice, senior management representatives of each party shall meet in person or by telephone or videoconference to attempt in good faith to try to resolve such dispute (each, a “Dispute Conference”).
b. Arbitration Procedure. Disputes not resolved within 10 business days after the Dispute Conference shall be resolved through mandatory, binding arbitration conducted in accordance with the commercial arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association, and judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitral tribunal may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.
