d below) informally for at least thirty (30) days before initiating any arbitrat

address you have provided to us. You will send your notice to Riot Games, Inc.,
10736 Jefferson Blvd #622, Culver City, CA, 90230, ATTN: CEO.
B. Binding Arbitration. If the parties are unable to resolve a Claim through neg
otiations, either you or Riot Games may elect to have the Claim (with the except
ion of those Claims expressly excluded in Section XXVII.E) finally and exclusive
ly resolved by binding arbitration. Any election to arbitrate by one party shall
be final and binding on the other. The arbitration will be conducted under the
Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") and
, where appropriate, the AAA s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Claim
s ("AAA Consumer Rules").
The arbitration may be conducted in person, through the submission of documents,
by phone or online. The arbitrator will make a decision in writing, but need no
t provide a statement of reasons unless requested by a party. The arbitrator mus
t follow applicable law, and any award may be challenged if the arbitrator fails
to do so. The determination of whether a Claim is subject to arbitration shall
be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act and determined by a court rather than
an arbitrator.
Your arbitration fees and your share of arbitrator compensation shall be governe
d by the AAA Rules and, where appropriate, limited by the AAA Consumer Rules. Ri
ot Games will pay all arbitration fees and expenses in the event the arbitrator
determines those costs to be excessive. Except as otherwise provided in this Agr
eement, you and Riot Games may litigate in court to compel arbitration, stay pro
ceeding pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate or enter judgment on
the award entered by the arbitrator.

jurisdiction in Los Angeles, State of California, United States of America, and
you and Riot Games agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.
