EXCEPT FOR DISPUTES THAT QUALIFY FOR SMALL CLAIMS COURT, ALL DISPUTES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT (INCLUDING THE PRODUCT TERMS) OR ANY ASPECT OF THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN CUSTOMER AND SCHOLASTIC, WHETHER BASED IN CONTRACT, TORT, STATUTE, FRAUD, MISREPRESENTATION OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, WILL BE RESOLVED THROUGH FINAL AND BINDING ARBITRATION BEFORE A NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR INSTEAD OF IN A COURT BY A JUDGE OR JURY, AND EACH PARTY AGREES THAT IT IS WAIVING THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY A JURY.

The Consumer Arbitration Rules are currently available online at https://www.adr.org/aaa/ShowProperty?nodeId=/UCM/ADRSTAGE2021425&revision=latestreleased .

Any in-person appearances will be held at a location which is reasonably convenient to both parties with due consideration of their ability to travel and other pertinent circumstances. If the parties are unable to agree on a location, such determination should be made by the AAA or by the arbitrator. The arbitrator's decision will follow the provisions of this Agreement and will be final and binding. The arbitrator will have authority to award temporary, interim or permanent injunctive relief or relief providing for specific performance of this Agreement or any other applicable agreement between us, but only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by the individual claim before the arbitrator. The award rendered by the arbitrator may be confirmed and enforced in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

Customer may not assign, transfer or sublicense any or all of his or her rights or obligations under this Agreement without Scholastic's express prior written consent. Scholastic may assign, transfer, sublicense or subcontract any or all of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without restriction. No waiver by either party of any breach or default under this Agreement will be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding or subsequent breach or default. Any heading, caption or section title contained in this Agreement is for convenience only, and in no way defines or explains any section or provision. All terms defined in the singular shall have the same meanings when used in the plural, where appropriate and unless otherwise specified.

This Agreement, including the Product Terms and any Orders or other terms and conditions incorporated into this Agreement, is the entire agreement between Customer and Scholastic relating to its subject matter, and supersedes any and all prior or contemporaneous written or oral agreements or understandings between Customer and Scholastic relating to such subject matter. Notices to Customer (including notices of changes to this Agreement) may be made via posting to the Site or by e-mail (including in each case via links), or by regular mail. Notices to Scholastic shall be sent in writing by registered mail, return receipt requested, to: Scholastic Inc., 557 Broadway, New York, NY 10012, Attn: SVP, Corporate Finance; with a copy to: Scholastic Inc., 557 Broadway, New York, NY 10012, Attn: EVP & General Counsel.
