16. MISCELLANEOUS

GOVERNING LAW
The Agreement and any claims relating to its subject matter, without regard to principles of conflict of laws, shall be governed by and construed under the laws of Belgium, without reference to its conflicts of law principles. All disputes will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located in Brabant Walloon. This Agreement shall not be governed by the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods, the application of which is expressly disclaimed. No party shall make a motion to dismiss or transfer any case filed in accordance with this subsection on the basis of improper venue, personal jurisdiction, or of the convenience of any party or witness.
WAIVER OF CLASS-WIDE PROCEEDINGS
You agree that, by entering into these Terms of Use, you and we are each waiving the right to participate in a class action or class arbitration. Each party to these Terms of Use agrees and covenants that it will not initiate any class-wide proceedings, including class actions or class arbitrations, against another party, and will not act as a class representative or class member. This provision constitutes an agreement that any Claim will be resolved exclusively on a bilateral basis between the parties, with each party acting in his/her/its individual capacity. Further, unless both parties agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. The arbitrator may award relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party’s individual claim. If for any reason the prohibition on class arbitration in this subsection is not or cannot be enforced, then the agreement to arbitrate will not apply.
DISPUTES
Any dispute relating in any way to your visit to the VEX Sites, use of the VEX Services or otherwise relating to your VEX Account, will be finally settled by binding arbitration under the jurisdiction of the courts located in Brabant Walloon, Belgium (“Rules”) (which Rules are deemed to be incorporated by reference into these Terms and Conditions) by one arbitrator, appointed in accordance with the Rules, the arbitration will take place in Belgium and the language of the arbitration will be French, except that, to the extent you have acted in any manner or refrained from acting in a manner that, in VEX’s sole opinion, infringes VEX’s rights, such as where you have violated or threatened to violate VEX’s intellectual property rights or which has, or is likely to, affect adversely, VEX, the VEX Services or the VEX Sites or the rights of a third party. VEX shall have the right to seek injunctive or other appropriate relief in the courts of the Kingdom of Belgium, and you consent to exclusive jurisdiction and venue in such courts. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, no arbitration under these Terms and Conditions shall be joined to an arbitration involving any other party subject to these Terms and Conditions, whether through class arbitration proceedings or otherwise.
ENTIRE AGREEMENT
These Terms & Conditions and other legal notices published by VEX on the VEX Sites applicable to an activity you engage in shall constitute the entire agreement between you and VEX concerning the VEX Sites and VEX Services.
SEVERABILITY
If any of the provisions of these Terms & Conditions shall be deemed invalid, void, or for any reason unenforceable, that provision shall be deemed severable and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any of the remaining provisions of these Terms & Conditions, which shall continue in full force and effect.
WAIVER
No waiver shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver, and VEX’s failure to assert any right under these Terms & Conditions shall not constitute a waiver of such right. You agree that any cause of action arising out of or relating to the VEX Sites must commence within one (1) year after the cause of action arises, and otherwise, the maximum extent permitted by the relevant laws, is permanently barred.
OBLIGATION DISCLAIMER
VEX has no obligation to check whether users are using the VEX Sites and VEX Services in accordance with this Agreement or any other agreement.

VEX may, in its sole discretion, decide to take appropriate action against any person it suspects to be engaging in any unlawful activity or otherwise violating the terms of this Agreement, but is under no obligation to do so.
You will not be entitled to a refund from the Company for any sums you believe to be owed to you as a result of any other user’s misconduct, unlawful behavior or otherwise, whether or not the Company pursues any action against such user.
