7. Integration

8. Binding Nature of this Participation Agreement
The provisions of this Participation Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the Parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Participants understand that Participants have the chance to consult with an attorney about this Agreement and are otherwise signing it voluntarily.
9. Severability
All the provisions of this Participation Agreement shall be considered as separate terms and conditions. In the event that any provision hereof is determined to be invalid, prohibited, or unenforceable by a court or other body of competent jurisdiction, this Participation Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid, prohibited, or unenforceable provision had been more narrowly drawn so as not to be invalid, prohibited, or unenforceable.

10. Choice of Law and Jurisdiction
This Participation Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California without regard to any conflict of law rules of another state. Releasing Parties explicitly know, understand and acknowledge that the laws of the State of California may be more likely to recognize the validity and enforceability of the terms of this Participation Agreement-and particularly the parental waiver and indemnification provisions-than the laws of the other states (including the state where the Trampoline Park is located and/or the Releasing Parties reside). In executing this Participation Agreement, Releasing Parties' expressly intend and desire for the substantive laws of the State of California to govern the validity and enforceability of this Participation Agreement.
11. Mediation and Arbitration
Any and all disputes, claims, or controversies arising out of or relating in any way to this Agreement, including but not limited to Participants' Use of Facility at the Trampoline Park may be submitted to a formal mediation using a mediator, or a comparative impartial third party, either appointed by the American Arbitration Association or any other mediator to which the Parties agree in writing. Mediation must commence within any applicable statute of limitations, and shall be deemed to commence when a Party notifies the agreed-upon mediator, in writing, of its request for mediation, the subject of the dispute, and the relief requested. Mediation shall be deemed to be in the nature of settlement negotiations and any dispute not otherwise satisfactorily resolved shall be subject to mandatory, final and binding arbitration. Either Party may initiate arbitration with respect to the matters submitted to mediation by notifying the other Party, in writing and within ten days after the mediation is concluded, of its demand for arbitration. Unless otherwise agreed by the Parties, the mediator shall be disqualified from serving as arbitrator in the case. Except as otherwise agreed in writing by the Parties or as required by applicable law, any mediation and arbitration shall be conducted in California. Similar to a judge or jury, an arbitrator may grant any remedy or relief that the arbitrator deems just and equitable and within the scope of the agreement of the parties, however the scope and rules of arbitration differ, and review is limited. In the event the Parties elect not to mediate, arbitration shall be the sole and exclusive forum for resolution of the dispute, claim or controversy, and the award shall be in writing, state the reasons for the award, and be final and binding. Judgment thereon may then be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. By signing this Agreement, the Participants, to the fullest extent permitted by law, agree to this Section 11 and agree to settle disputes only by individualized mediation and/or arbitration, with disputes from different participants to be heard in different proceedings. Participants thereby waive their right to seek relief in a court of law and have any and all claims decided by a jury or a judge, or to maintain other available court action or administrative proceedings to settle Participants’ disputes.
12. Attorney Fees for Breach of this Participation Agreement
In the event either Party hereto defaults in any of the covenants or agreements contained herein, including without limitation the eleventh clause, the non-prevailing Party shall pay all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees and expert fees, incurred by the prevailing Party as a result of this default.
