Description of FX Networks, LLC Services and Acceptance of Terms of Use Including Arbitration of Disputes

FX Networks, LLC (“FX,” “we” or “us”) has developed this Terms of Use Agreement (“Agreement”) to describe the terms that govern your use of the FX Services (defined below). This Agreement applies to the entertainment-related FX websites (“FX Sites”), mobile sites, applications ("apps"), widgets, FX Content (as defined below), FX Site Products (as defined below) and other content and services that are linked to this Agreement (collectively, the "FX Services"). FX is based in the United States and is a part of the United States based operations, Twenty-First Century Fox, Inc.

Your access to and use of certain FX Services may require you to accept additional terms and conditions applicable to such FX Services, including any future modifications (collectively, "Additional Terms") in addition to this Agreement, and may require you to download software or Content (as defined below). The Additional Terms are made a part of this Agreement by this reference. In the event of a conflict, between any such Additional Terms and this Agreement, such Additional Terms will prevail over this Agreement with respect to your use of that specific FX Service.

Use of the FX Services is limited to users aged 13 years and above.

PLEASE NOTE THAT THE “ARBITRATION AGREEMENT” SECTION BELOW CONTAINS PROVISIONS THAT REQUIRE (i) WITH LIMITED EXCEPTIONS, ALL DISPUTES ARISING BETWEEN YOU AND FX UNDER THIS AGREEMENT BE HANDLED BY ARBITRATION, AND (ii) YOU AND FX WAIVE THE RIGHT TO BRING OR PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION IN CONNECTION WITH SUCH DISPUTES.

FX furnishes the FX Services (as defined below) and FX Content to you for your personal enjoyment and entertainment and may not be used for commercial purposes. By using any FX Service (whether or not you have an account or subscription) or by clicking a box that states that you accept and agree to this Agreement, you signify your agreement to be bound by this Agreement, including any future modifications, and any Additional Terms and to abide by all applicable laws, rules and regulations ("Applicable Law"). Please read through this Agreement carefully. If you do not agree to be bound by this Agreement and to abide by all Applicable Law, you may not use the FX Services and must discontinue use of the FX Services immediately. FX may modify this Agreement at any time, and each such modification will be effective upon posting on or to the FX Service. All material modifications will apply prospectively only. Your continued use of the FX Services following any modification constitutes your acceptance of and agreement to be bound by this Agreement as so modified. It is therefore important that you review this Agreement regularly. FX may also use third-party service providers, such as vendors, contractors, agents or sponsors, to operate, develop or help FX manage and provide the FX Services.

You understand that the FX Content may contain material that may be deemed offensive, indecent, or objectionable, which FX Content may or may not be identified as having explicit language or content.  Nevertheless, you agree to access and/or use the FX Content at your sole risk and that FX and FX Affiliates shall have no liability to you for any content or material that may be found to be offensive, indecent, or objectionable.

FX Account Registration and Security

Some FX Services require you to create an account (including setting up a FX credential and password) to participate in or to secure additional FX Services, such as viewing and commenting on FX Content (defined below), purchasing FX Site Products, creating an FX Site profile and signing up for specific FX newsletters. To make it easier for you to create an account and interact with participating FX Services without having to maintain multiple sign-in credentials, FX has created the universal FX credential. The FX credential allows you to sign into participating FX Services with one email and password. In addition to your FX credential, you will have the ability to create a profile, which may include an FX Site username and profile, as part of your account. If you would like to subscribe to any of the newsletters FX offers, please visit http://www.fxnetworks.com/login.

All registration information you submit directly to us or through a Third-Party Service (defined below) to register and/or create an account to access FX Services and/or FX Content must be accurate and must be kept updated by you. It is your responsibility to notify us of any changes in such information, including, but not limited to your contact information. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of all your passwords and are responsible for all use of your account. It is therefore critical that you do not share your account information with anyone. You may be held liable for losses incurred by FX, FX Affiliates (defined below) or any other FX user or visitor in the event someone else uses your account as a result of your failure to keep your account information secure and confidential and you agree to indemnify FX and all FX Affiliates from any third-party claims arising from such actions. You agree not to use the account, username, email address or password of another registrant, member or subscriber at any time and not lend or otherwise allow any other person to use your credentials or account. You agree to notify FX immediately if you suspect any unauthorized use of, or access to, your account or password. FX shall retain the right to change your username, but no obligation, for any reason, including, without limitation, if the username you have selected violates this Agreement. FX shall also retain the right, but no obligation, to review any profile pictures provided by you.

If you continue to use the FX Services after the applicable fee has been imposed or increased, you are expressly agreeing to the subscription fee or increase thereto and you will be responsible for paying such fee for the balance of your subscription service. You will not be entitled to a refund of any unused portion of such fees or other payments if FX suspends or terminates your account, and/or access to an FX Site (or any portion of the FX Site), due to your breach of this Agreement or violation of Applicable Law, as determined by FX, in its sole discretion.

Purchasing FX Site Products

In connection with a purchase of any FX Services feature, subscription (including any premium subscription) or product, through any FX Service ("FX Site Product") you may be required to provide personal information, including credit card and billing information (“Personal Financial Information”), to an independent third-party selected by, but not affiliated with, FX (the “Processor”).

If you purchase certain subscription based FX Site Products, your subscription will be automatically renewed and the credit card you provided to the Processor for such FX Site Product will be charged per the billing cycle of your subscription (e.g., monthly, 3-month, 6-month, annual), unless you cancel the subscription prior to the automatic renewal date of the subscription. The renewal charge for your subscription shall be the same as the original purchase price, unless you are otherwise notified in advance. You acknowledge and agree that the authorization to charge your credit card for the subscription shall automatically transfer to any successors or assigns of FX or the Processor, for a substantially similar subscription. Some subscription options include a free trial period. You are allowed only one free trial period. Subsequent subscriptions or upgrades do not qualify for additional free trials.

FX makes no warranty and accepts no liability for any loss or damages whatsoever, relating to, or in connection with, your placement of an order for an FX Site Product with the Processor.

If you have any questions regarding your purchases or transactions or believe that there is an error or unauthorized transaction or activity associated with transactions utilizing your information, you must contact the Processor.

(1) FX, including its FX Affiliates, agents, employees, predecessors in interest, successors, and assigns, and you agree that any and all disputes and claims that each of you and FX may have against the other that arise out of or relate to the FX Services and your use of them, including the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity of this Agreement, including the agreement to arbitrate (the “Arbitration Agreement”) and the scope or applicability of this Arbitration Agreement (collectively, “Disputes”), including but not limited to the arbitrability of any and all Disputes, and even if the events giving rise to Disputes occurred before this Arbitration Agreement became effective, will be resolved in a binding, confidential, individual and fair arbitration process, and not in court. Each of you and FX agrees to give up the right to sue in court. Each of you and FX also agrees to give up the right to have Disputes heard by a jury and the ability to seek to represent, in a class action or otherwise, anyone but each of you and FX (see paragraph 9 of this Arbitration Agreement below). The only exceptions to this Arbitration Agreement are that (i) each of you and FX retains the right to sue in small claims court and (ii) each of you and FX may bring suit in court against the other to enjoin infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights.

(2) This Agreement evidences a transaction in interstate commerce, and thus the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16, governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Arbitration Agreement. This Arbitration Agreement shall survive termination of this Agreement.

(3) Any arbitration between you and FX will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”) and will be governed by the AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively, the “AAA Rules”), as modified by this Arbitration Agreement. The AAA Rules are available online at www.adr.org, or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879. The arbitration will be conducted by a single arbitrator. If you and we cannot agree on who that single arbitrator should be, then the AAA shall appoint an arbitrator with significant experience resolving the type of Dispute at issue. The arbitrator is bound by the terms of this Agreement.

(4) If either you or FX wants to arbitrate a Dispute, you or FX must first send by mail to the other a written Notice of Dispute (“Notice”) that sets forth the name, address, and contact information of the party giving notice, the specific facts giving rise to the Dispute, the FX Service to which the Notice relates, and the relief requested. Your Notice to the FX must be sent by mail to Arbitration Notice of Dispute, 2121 Avenue of the Stars, 7th Floor, Los Angeles, California, 90067. The FX will send any Notice to you at the contact information we have for you or that you provide. It is the sender’s responsibility to ensure that the recipient receives the Notice. During the first 45 days after you or we send a Notice to the other, you and we may try to reach a settlement of the Dispute. If you and we do not resolve the Dispute within those first 45 days, either you or we may initiate arbitration in accordance with the rules and procedures provided for by the AAA. A form for initiating formal arbitration may be found on the AAA’s website at www.adr.org (“Arbitration Form”). In addition to filing this Arbitration Form with AAA in accordance with its rules and procedures, you must send a copy of this completed Arbitration Form to the FX at the address listed above to which you sent your Notice of Dispute.

(5) AAA charges fees to conduct arbitrations. Ordinarily, the claimant has to pay that fee to start a case, but if you wish to commence an arbitration against FX, and you are seeking to recover less than $10,000 (inclusive of attorneys’ fees), you will not have to pay this filing fee; FX will pay it on your behalf. If you are seeking to recover $10,000 or more, you will have to pay the filing fee charged by AAA, but FX will reimburse that fee if you win the arbitration.

(6) If you are seeking to recover $10,000 or less, AAA rules provide that the Dispute should be resolved without a hearing, by submission of documents only. Either you or we may request a hearing, however, and be responsible for the fees associated with it. If the arbitrator recommends a hearing even if neither you nor we request one, FX will pay the arbitrator’s fees associated with the hearing. If the claim is for more than $10,000, the manner and place of the hearing will be determined in accordance with the AAA Rules.

(7) Regardless of how the arbitration proceeds, the arbitrator shall issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain his or her findings and conclusions.

(8) Each of you and FX may incur attorneys’ fees during the arbitration. In addition to whatever rights you may have to recover your attorneys’ fees under Applicable Law, if you prevail in the arbitration, and if FX failed to make a settlement offer to you before the arbitration or the amount you win is at least 25% greater than FX’s highest settlement offer to resolve the Dispute, then FX will pay your reasonable attorneys’ fees in addition to the amount the arbitrator awarded. If FX wins the arbitration, you will be responsible for your own attorneys’ fees. In addition, if the arbitrator, at the request of the winning party, finds that the losing party brought a Dispute or asserted a defense frivolously or for an improper purpose, then regardless of the amount in dispute, the arbitrator must order the losing party to pay both sides’ arbitration fees and may order the losing party to pay the winning party’s reasonable attorneys’ fees, unless such an award of fees is prohibited by Applicable Law.

(9) The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive 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. The arbitrator may not order FX to pay any monies to or take any actions with respect to persons other than you, unless FX explicitly consents in advance, after an arbitrator is selected, to permit the arbitrator to enter such an order. YOU AND FX AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, REPRESENTATIVE OR MULTI-CLAIMANT PROCEEDING. Further, unless FX agrees, the arbitrator may not consolidate other persons’ claims with yours, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative, multi-claimant or class proceeding. If this specific provision is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Arbitration Agreement shall be null and void, but the rest of this Agreement, including the provisions governing where actions against FX must be pursued, will remain in effect.

(10) You and FX agree to maintain the confidential nature of the arbitration proceeding and shall not disclose the fact of the arbitration, any documents exchanged as part of any mediation, proceedings of the arbitration, the arbitrator’s decision and the existence or amount of any award, except as may be necessary to prepare for or conduct the arbitration (in which case anyone becoming privy to confidential information must undertake to preserve its confidentiality), or except as may be necessary in connection with a court application for a provisional remedy, a judicial challenge to an award or its enforcement, or unless otherwise required by law or court order.

FX also reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to forward the information you submit, to its FX Affiliates for legitimate business purposes. Nothing in this Agreement or contained in the FX Services will constitute a promise by FX to contact, interview, hire or employ any individual who submits information to it, nor will anything in this Agreement or contained in the FX Services constitute a promise that FX will review any or all of the information submitted to it by users of the FX Services.

Other

The failure of FX to exercise or enforce any right or provision of this Agreement will not operate as a waiver of such right or provision. The Section titles in this Agreement are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect. This Agreement operates to the fullest extent permissible by law. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, if any provision of this Agreement is unlawful, void or unenforceable, that provision is deemed severable from this Agreement and does not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions.

Nothing contained in this Agreement limits FX’s right to comply with governmental, court and law enforcement requests or requirements relating to your use of the FX Services or information provided to or gathered by us in connection with such use.
