If any part hereof is held to be invalid or legally unenforceable for any reason (the “Affected Provision”), the remainder of the Agreement shall not be affected thereby and shall remain valid and fully enforceable and the Affected Provision shall be enforced to the maximum extent permitted by law.

BY ATTENDING AND/OR PARTICIPATING IN THE EVENT, HOLDER, ON THEIR OWN BEHALF AND ON BEHALF OF ANY RELATED PARTIES, IS DEEMED TO HAVE GIVEN A FULL RELEASE OF LIABILITY TO THE RELEASED PARTIES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.

IF MINOR(S) AND/OR OTHER ACCOMPANYING PARTIES ATTEND THE EVENT WITH HOLDER, HOLDER IS DEEMED TO HAVE GIVEN ALL OF THE FOREGOING GRANTS OF RIGHTS, RELEASES AND WAIVERS ON BEHALF OF: (A) SUCH MINOR(S) AS THEIR PARENT OR GUARDIAN OR AS THE AUTHORIZED AGENT OF THEIR PARENT OR GUARDIAN; AND/OR (B) SUCH OTHER ACCOMPANYING PARTIES, AS THEIR AUTHORIZED AGENT.

ENTERING THE PLAYING FIELD FOR A GAME, OTHERWISE DISRUPTING AN EVENT AND/OR ATTEMPTING ANY PHYSICAL CONTACT WITH AN EVENT PARTICIPANT IS A CRIME PUNISHABLE BY FINE AND/OR IMPRISONMENT. VIOLATORS MAY BE PROSECUTED TO THE FULLEST EXTENT OF THE LAW.

MANDATORY ARBITRATION AGREEMENT & CLASS ACTION WAIVER (“ARBITRATION AGREEMENT”)

The WBCI Entities care deeply about maintaining good relationships with fans. If you or any of your Accompanying Parties have a problem with this ticket or the Event, a telephone call to customer service may resolve the matter quickly and amicably. Any dispute not resolved informally must be resolved in accordance with this Arbitration Agreement.

Unless prohibited by applicable law, Holder and the WBCI Entities agree to arbitrate any and all claims and disputes relating in any way to Holder’s purchase or Holder’s or any Accompanying Parties’ use of this ticket, Holder’s and/or any Accompanying Parties’ participation in, attendance at, and/or observation of the Event, the Agreement, and any related dealings between them, including, without limitation, claims of illness (including COVID 19 or other Communicable Disease), bodily injury or property damage arising out of Holder’s and/or any Accompanying Parties’ attendance at and/or participation in the Event (“Arbitration Claims”), except for Arbitration Claims concerning the validity, scope or enforceability of this Arbitration Agreement, through BINDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION.

In any Arbitration Claim to be resolved by arbitration, neither Holder nor the WBCI Entities will be able to have a court or jury trial or participate in a class action or class arbitration. Other rights that Holder and the WBCI Entities would have in court will not be available or will be more limited in arbitration, including the right to appeal. Holder and the WBCI Entities each understand and agree that by requiring each other to resolve all disputes through individual arbitration, WE ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A COURT OR JURY TRIAL. ALL DISPUTES SHALL BE ARBITRATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS, AND NOT AS A CLASS ACTION, REPRESENTATIVE ACTION, CLASS ARBITRATION OR ANY SIMILAR PROCEEDING. The arbitrator(s) may not consolidate the claims of multiple parties.

Arbitrations shall be administered by a well-recognized arbitration body selected by WBCI. The arbitration shall take place in the city where the Host Venue is located. The arbitration shall be presided over by a single arbitrator, who shall be selected in accordance with the rules that, as specified above, shall govern the arbitration. The arbitrator shall be authorized to award any relief that would have been available in court, provided that the arbitrator’s authority is limited to Holder and the WBCI Entities alone, except as otherwise specifically stated herein. No arbitration decision will have any preclusive effect as to non-parties. The arbitrator’s decision shall be final and binding. The parties agree that this Arbitration Agreement extends to any other parties involved in any Arbitration Claims, including, but not limited to, any Accompanying Parties, Related Parties and/or Released Parties. This Arbitration Agreement shall take precedence over the rules of the arbitration organization or arbitrator in the event of any conflict.

Notwithstanding any other provision herein, Holder and the WBCI Entities each may exercise any lawful rights to seek provisional remedies, without waiving the right to arbitrate by doing so. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Agreement, if the foregoing class action waiver and prohibition against class arbitration is determined to be invalid or unenforceable, then this entire Arbitration Agreement shall be void. If any portion of this Arbitration Agreement other than the class action waiver and prohibition against class arbitration is deemed invalid or unenforceable, it shall not invalidate the remaining portions of this Arbitration Agreement. This Arbitration Agreement will survive the termination of the Agreement, the conclusion of the Event, and/or the bankruptcy or insolvency of a party (to the extent permitted by applicable law).

YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO REJECT THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT, BUT YOU MUST EXERCISE THIS RIGHT PROMPTLY. If you do not wish to be bound by this agreement to arbitrate, you must notify us by mailing a written opt-out notice, postmarked within thirty (30) days after the date of the Event. You must send your request to: World Baseball Classic, Inc., Attn: Legal Department, Re: Ticket Arbitration, 1271 Avenue of the Americas, New York, NY 10020. The request must include your full name, address and the statement “I reject the Arbitration Agreement contained in my Event Ticket.” If you exercise the right to reject arbitration, the other terms of the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect as if you had not rejected arbitration.

Prior to bringing a claim under this Arbitration Agreement, the Claimant shall give the other party or parties written notice of the Arbitration Claim (a “Claim Notice”) and a reasonable opportunity, not less than thirty (30) days, to resolve the Arbitration Claim. Any Claim Notice to one or more of the WBCI Entities shall be sent by mail to World Baseball Classic, Inc., Attn: Legal Department, Re: Ticket Claim Notice, 1271 Avenue of the Americas, New York, NY 10020. Any Claim Notice must (a) identify the Claimant by name, address, email address, and telephone number; (b) explain the nature of the Arbitration Claim and the relief demanded; and (c) be submitted only on behalf of the Claimant, and not on behalf of any other party. The Claimant must reasonably cooperate in providing any information about the Arbitration Claim that the other party reasonably requests and must give the other party a reasonable opportunity to respond to the demand for relief.

IF MINOR(S) AND/OR OTHER ACCOMPANYING PARTIES ATTEND THE EVENT WITH HOLDER, HOLDER IS DEEMED TO HAVE AGREED TO THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT ON BEHALF OF: (A) SUCH MINOR(S) AS THEIR PARENT OR GUARDIAN OR AS THE AUTHORIZED AGENT OF THEIR PARENT OR GUARDIAN; AND/OR (B) OTHER ACCOMPANYING PARTIES, AS THEIR AUTHORIZED AGENT. IF HOLDER DOES NOT WISH TO OR IS NOT AUTHORIZED TO MAKE SUCH AGREEMENT ON BEHALF OF: (I) ANY ACCOMPANYING MINOR(S), HOLDER SHOULD IMMEDIATELY LEAVE THE HOST VENUE WITH THOSE MINOR(S); AND/OR (II) ANY OTHER ACCOMPANYING PARTY, SUCH ACCOMPANYING PARTY SHOULD IMMEDIATELY LEAVE THE HOST VENUE.

The acknowledgements and express assumptions of risk, waivers of claims, and releases of liability contained herein are intended to be binding and full waivers of claims and releases of liability, and interpreted to be as broad and inclusive as is permitted by law, including with respect to any controversy, claim or dispute that may arise related to exposure or contraction of COVID-19 or other Communicable Disease. If any part hereof is held to be invalid or legally unenforceable for any reason (the “Affected Provision”), the remainder of the Agreement shall not be affected thereby and shall remain valid and fully enforceable and the Affected Provision shall be enforced to the maximum extent permitted by law.

BY ATTENDING AND/OR PARTICIPATING IN THE EVENT, HOLDER, ON THEIR OWN BEHALF AND ON BEHALF OF ANY RELATED PARTIES, IS DEEMED TO HAVE GIVEN A FULL RELEASE OF LIABILITY TO THE RELEASED PARTIES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.

IF MINOR(S) AND/OR OTHER ACCOMPANYING PARTIES ATTEND THE EVENT WITH HOLDER, HOLDER IS DEEMED TO HAVE GIVEN ALL OF THE FOREGOING GRANTS OF RIGHTS, RELEASES AND WAIVERS ON BEHALF OF: (A) SUCH MINOR(S) AS THEIR PARENT OR GUARDIAN OR AS THE AUTHORIZED AGENT OF THEIR PARENT OR GUARDIAN; AND/OR (B) SUCH OTHER ACCOMPANYING PARTIES, AS THEIR AUTHORIZED AGENT. IF HOLDER DOES NOT WISH TO OR IS NOT AUTHORIZED TO GRANT SUCH RIGHTS, RELEASES AND WAIVERS ON BEHALF OF: (I) SUCH MINOR(S), HOLDER SHOULD IMMEDIATELY LEAVE THE HOST VENUE WITH THOSE MINOR(S); AND/OR (II) ANY OTHER ACCOMPANYING PARTY, SUCH ACCOMPANYING PARTY SHOULD IMMEDIATELY LEAVE THE HOST VENUE.

MANDATORY ARBITRATION AGREEMENT & CLASS ACTION WAIVER (“ARBITRATION AGREEMENT”)

The WBCI Entities care deeply about maintaining good relationships with fans. If you or any of your Accompanying Parties have a problem with this ticket or the Event, a telephone call to customer service may resolve the matter quickly and amicably. Any dispute not resolved informally must be resolved in accordance with this Arbitration Agreement.

Unless prohibited by applicable law, Holder and the WBCI Entities agree to arbitrate any and all claims and disputes relating in any way to Holder’s purchase or Holder’s or any Accompanying Parties’ use of this ticket, Holder’s and/or any Accompanying Parties’ participation in, attendance at, and/or observation of the Event, the Agreement, and any related dealings between them, including, without limitation, claims of illness (including COVID 19 or other Communicable Disease), bodily injury or property damage arising out of Holder’s and/or any Accompanying Parties’ attendance at and/or participation in the Event (“Arbitration Claims”), except for Arbitration Claims concerning the validity, scope or enforceability of this Arbitration Agreement, through BINDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION.

In any Arbitration Claim to be resolved by arbitration, neither Holder nor the WBCI Entities will be able to have a court or jury trial or participate in a class action or class arbitration. Other rights that Holder and the WBCI Entities would have in court will not be available or will be more limited in arbitration, including the right to appeal. Holder and the WBCI Entities each understand and agree that by requiring each other to resolve all disputes through individual arbitration, WE ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A COURT OR JURY TRIAL. ALL DISPUTES SHALL BE ARBITRATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS, AND NOT AS A CLASS ACTION, REPRESENTATIVE ACTION, CLASS ARBITRATION OR ANY SIMILAR PROCEEDING. The arbitrator(s) may not consolidate the claims of multiple parties.

Arbitrations shall be administered by a well-recognized arbitration body selected by WBCI. The arbitration shall take place in the city where the Host Venue is located. The arbitration shall be presided over by a single arbitrator, who shall be selected in accordance with the rules that, as specified above, shall govern the arbitration. The arbitrator shall be authorized to award any relief that would have been available in court, provided that the arbitrator’s authority is limited to Holder and the WBCI Entities alone, except as otherwise specifically stated herein. No arbitration decision will have any preclusive effect as to non-parties. The arbitrator’s decision shall be final and binding. The parties agree that this Arbitration Agreement extends to any other parties involved in any Arbitration Claims, including, but not limited to, any Accompanying Parties, Related Parties and/or Released Parties. This Arbitration Agreement shall take precedence over the rules of the arbitration organization or arbitrator in the event of any conflict.

Notwithstanding any other provision herein, Holder and the WBCI Entities each may exercise any lawful rights to seek provisional remedies, without waiving the right to arbitrate by doing so. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Agreement, if the foregoing class action waiver and prohibition against class arbitration is determined to be invalid or unenforceable, then this entire Arbitration Agreement shall be void. If any portion of this Arbitration Agreement other than the class action waiver and prohibition against class arbitration is deemed invalid or unenforceable, it shall not invalidate the remaining portions of this Arbitration Agreement. This Arbitration Agreement will survive the termination of the Agreement, the conclusion of the Event, and/or the bankruptcy or insolvency of a party (to the extent permitted by applicable law).

YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO REJECT THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT, BUT YOU MUST EXERCISE THIS RIGHT PROMPTLY. If you do not wish to be bound by this agreement to arbitrate, you must notify us by mailing a written opt-out notice, postmarked within thirty (30) days after the date of the Event. You must send your request to: World Baseball Classic, Inc., Attn: Legal Department, Re: Ticket Arbitration, 1271 Avenue of the Americas, New York, NY 10020. The request must include your full name, address and the statement “I reject the Arbitration Agreement contained in my Event Ticket.” If you exercise the right to reject arbitration, the other terms of the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect as if you had not rejected arbitration.

Prior to bringing a claim under this Arbitration Agreement, the Claimant shall give the other party or parties written notice of the Arbitration Claim (a “Claim Notice”) and a reasonable opportunity, not less than thirty (30) days, to resolve the Arbitration Claim. Any Claim Notice to one or more of the WBCI Entities shall be sent by mail to World Baseball Classic, Inc., Attn: Legal Department, Re: Ticket Claim Notice, 1271 Avenue of the Americas, New York, NY 10020. Any Claim Notice must a) identify the Claimant by name, address, email address, and telephone number; b) explain the nature of the Arbitration Claim and the relief demanded; and c) be submitted only on behalf of the Claimant, and not on behalf of any other party. The Claimant must reasonably cooperate in providing any information about the Arbitration Claim that the other party reasonably requests and must give the other party a reasonable opportunity to respond to the demand for relief.

IF MINOR(S) AND/OR OTHER ACCOMPANYING PARTIES ATTEND THE EVENT WITH HOLDER, HOLDER IS DEEMED TO HAVE AGREED TO THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT ON BEHALF OF: (A) SUCH MINOR(S) AS THEIR PARENT OR GUARDIAN OR AS THE AUTHORIZED AGENT OF THEIR PARENT OR GUARDIAN; AND/OR (B) OTHER ACCOMPANYING PARTIES, AS THEIR AUTHORIZED AGENT. IF HOLDER DOES NOT WISH TO OR IS NOT AUTHORIZED TO MAKE SUCH AGREEMENT ON BEHALF OF: (I) ANY ACCOMPANYING MINOR(S), HOLDER SHOULD IMMEDIATELY LEAVE THE HOST VENUE WITH THOSE MINOR(S); AND/OR (II) ANY OTHER ACCOMPANYING PARTY, SUCH ACCOMPANYING PARTY SHOULD IMMEDIATELY LEAVE THE HOST VENUE.

WBCI成員非常重視與粉絲維持良好關係。若您或您的任何陪同人對本票券或本活動有任何問題,撥打客服專線即可迅速順利解決問題。任何無法以非正式方式解決之爭議,均必須依據本仲裁協議解決。

除非相關法律禁止,持票人及WBCI成員同意以具拘束性之個別仲裁解決任何及有與下列事由相關之請求及糾紛:持票人購買或持票人或任何陪同人使用本票券、持票人及/或任何陪同人參與、出席及/或觀看本活動、本合約,及雙方間之任何相關交易,包括但不限於因持票人及/或任何陪同人出席及/或參與本活動而造成的疾病(包括新冠肺炎或其他傳染病)、身體傷害或財產損失之請求(下稱「仲裁請求」),惟不含關於本仲裁協議之有效性、範圍或可執行性之仲裁請求。

在任何透過仲裁解決之仲裁請求中,持票人及WBCI成員均不應選擇法院或陪審團程序,或參與團體訴訟或團體仲裁。在仲裁程序中,持票人及WBCI成員在法院程序中擁有的其他權利(包括上訴權利)將不存在或受到限制。持票人及WBCI成員各自瞭解並同意,透過要求他方採用個別仲裁解決所有爭議,雙方各自拋棄選擇法院或陪審團程序之權利。所有爭議均應以個別案件為基礎進行仲裁,不得採用團體訴訟、代表訴訟、團體仲裁或任何類似程序。仲裁人不得合併多方當事人的請求。

仲裁應由WBCI選擇具良好聲譽之仲裁機構實施。仲裁應於活動場館所在之城市進行。仲裁應由一名仲裁人主持,該仲裁人應依據上述仲裁規則進行選擇。仲裁人有權授予任何可於法院程序取得的救濟,除本合約另有約定外,仲裁人權力範圍僅限於持票人及WBCI成員。任何仲裁決定均不會對非當事人產生任何對其有妨礙性之影響。仲裁人之決定應具終局性且具拘束力。雙方同意,本仲裁協議對任何仲裁請求涉及之任何其他當事人亦有適用,包括但不限於任何陪同人、關係人及/或受豁免方。若本仲裁協議與仲裁機構或仲裁人規則之間有任何歧異,應以本仲裁協議為準。
