IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS: EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF
MERCHANTIBILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE ON THIS PRODUCT IS LIMITED IN DURATION TO THE DURATION OF THIS LIMITED

GIVING UP THE RIGHT TO LITIGATE (OR PARTICIPATE IN AS A PARTY OR CLASS MEMBER) IN ANY DISPUTES IN COURT. You also agree that ANY
DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCEEDING WILL ONLY CONSIDER YOUR INDIVIDUAL CLAIMS, AND BOTH PARTIES AGREE NOT TO HAVE ANY DISPUTE
HEARD AS A CLASS ACTION, REPRESENTATIVE ACTION, CONSOLIDATED ACTION, OR PRIVATE ATIORNEY GENERAL ACTION. Despite the above, You
have the right to litigate any Dispute on an individual b as is in small claims court or other similar court of limited jurisdiction, to the extent the amount at issue does
not exceed $15,000, and
as long as such court has proper jurisdiction and all other requirements (including the amount in controversy) are satisfied.
Arbitration Instructions. To begin Arbitration, either You or Sony must make a written demand to the other for arbitration. The Arbitration will take place before a single
arbitrator.
The arbitration will be administered in keeping with lh e Expedited Procedures of the Commercial Arbitralion Rules a nd the Supplementary Proceedings
for Consumer-Related disputes ("Rules")
of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"), when applicable and in effect when the claim is filed. You may get a copy
of AAA's Rules by co ntacting AAA at [phone] or visiting www.adr.org. Tho filing Ieos to begin and carry out arbitration will be shored between You and Sony,
bu1 in no event shall You r fees ever exceed th e amount allowable by the special rules for Consumers Disputes provided fo r by AAA, at which point Sony will cover
all additional administrative fees and expenses. This does not prohibit the Arbitrator from giving the winning party their fees and expenses
of the arbitration when
appropriate pursuant to the Rules. Unless
You and Sony agree differently, the arbitration will take place in the county and state where You live, and applicable federal
or state law shall govern the substance of any Dispute during the arbitration. However, the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U. S. C.§ 1, et seq., will govern the arbitration itself
and not any state law on arbitration. The Arbitrator's decision will be binding and final, except for a limited right of appeal under the Federal Arbitration Act.
