acceptance, acknowledgment, confirmation, purchase order or
in any other manner containing additional, different or
inconsistent terms and conditions (collectively “Different
Terms”) is hereby expressly objected to and rejected by EFI.
EFI's dealings with Buyer or silence in response to

enforcing any provision of these Terms, or in connection
with the successful defense or settlement of any claim or
demand made by Buyer under these Terms.
- Limitation of Liability. Buyer
acknowledges that the price of the goods and services in the
Order is predicated on the enforceability of the following
limitation of liability, that the price would be
substantially higher if EFI could not limit its liability as
herein provided, and that Buyer accepts this limitation of
liability in exchange for the lower price. The EFI Parties'
sole liability to Buyer, and Buyer's exclusive remedy for
any claims in any way related to or arising under these
Terms or the Order, or under any other theory of recovery,
shall be limited as follows: (i) at EFI's sole option, EFI

refund Buyer the amount it paid for defective goods or
services in the Order (subject to section 5); (ii) in all
other cases EFI's total aggregate liability to Buyer
hereunder shall not exceed the purchase price paid by Buyer

damages may arise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no
event shall the EFI Parties be liable in any way for any
claims for any indirect, special, or consequential damages,
lost profits, lost data, loss of business, whether
foreseeable or not, incurred by Buyer or any other person
relating in any way to these Terms or the Order, whether or
not Buyer or other person has been advised of the
possibility of such loss or damage. This is a comprehensive
limitation of the EFI Parties' liability that applies to all
losses and damages of any kind, provided that nothing in
this these Terms shall be deemed to waive any liability or
any implied warranty that is non-waiveable as a matter of
law.
- Limitation of Actions. Buyer acknowledges
and agrees that, regardless of any statute or law to the
contrary, any claim or cause of action that Buyer may have
arising out of or relating to Buyer's use of the goods or
services in the Order must be filed on or before one (1)

be barred.

or services from time-to-time, for any reason, without

relationship. Neither party has nor will have any power to
bind the other party or to assume or create any obligation
or responsibility, express or implied, on behalf of the
other party.
- Dispute Resolution. If a dispute arises
between you and any of the EFI Parties, it is the goal of
EFI to work in good faith with you to quickly and amicably
resolve the dispute. All disputes, claims, or controversies
(“Claims”) arising under or relating to these Terms, this
website, or the goods or services that cannot be resolved
informally, will be finally resolved by binding arbitration
as described herein.
Any dispute arising under or related to these Terms, this
website, or the goods or services (including the
arbitrability of such a dispute and the existence, validity,
interpretation, performance, termination or breach thereof)
shall be finally settled by binding arbitration by a single
arbitrator in accordance with the then-current Commercial
Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association
("AAA"), with the arbitration to be commenced no later than
one (1) year after such Claim accrues (in absence of which
it shall be deemed forever waived). A judgment upon an
arbitrator's award may be entered by any court of competent
jurisdiction. The arbitrator shall be an expert in the field
of Internet services. To the extent permitted by applicable
law, you agree that there shall be no class action
arbitration related to this Agreement or the goods or
services. All parties shall bear their own expenses, except
that the parties shall equally share the expenses of the
arbitrator (except for the required non-refundable filing
fees which shall be paid solely by the party asserting the
related Claim).
The above obligations to arbitrate shall not prevent a party
from seeking a preliminary injunction, temporary restraining
order, specific performance or other procedures in a court
of competent jurisdiction to obtain interim relief when
deemed necessary by such court to preserve the status quo or
prevent irreparable injury pending resolution by arbitration
of the actual dispute.
Exclusive jurisdiction and venue for arbitration or any
other legal action or proceeding in any way related to this
Agreement, this website, or the goods or services shall be
in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Any matter brought before a court
shall be brought solely in the state or federal courts

right, claim or remedy in favor of, or impose any obligation
upon, any person or entity other than the parties hereto.
- Severability. The invalidity of any
portion of these Terms will and shall not be deemed to
affect the validity of any other provision. If any provision
of these Terms is held to be invalid, the parties agree that
the remaining provisions shall be deemed to be in full force
and effect.
- Force Majeure. Under no circumstances
shall EFI be held liable for any delay or failure in
performance resulting directly or indirectly from acts of

floods, storms, explosions, acts of god, war, governmental
actions, orders of domestic or foreign courts or tribunals,
non-performance by third parties, or loss of or fluctuations
in heat, light, or air conditioning.

strict performance of any terms or conditions stated herein
shall not be considered a continuing waiver of such terms or
conditions or any of EFI's rights hereunder. No express
waiver shall affect any provision other than that to which
the waiver is expressly applicable and only for that
occurrence.
- Electronic Transactions. The parties
intend that these terms can be electronically submitted and
accepted.

written, between the parties hereto with respect to the
subject matter hereof; except that any other terms or
conditions located in the Website
Terms and Conditions of Use and in the
