We may revise and update these Conditions of Use from time to time in our sole
discretion. All changes are effective immediately when we post them and apply to

any or no reason, including if, in our opinion, you have violated any provision

arbitration. Further, you agree arbitration is final and binding, and subject to
only very limited review by a court. You also waive your right to any form of
appeal, review or recourse to any court or other judicial authority, to the
fullest extent allowed by law.

This provision is intended to be interpreted broadly to encompass all disputes
or claims between you and us or our affiliates and each of our and their
directors, officers, employees, and contractors, including those arising out of
or relating to these Conditions of Use and/or the Online Services. Any dispute
or claim made by you against us or our affiliates and each of our and their
directors, officers, employees, and contractors, or vice versa arising out of or
relating to these Conditions of Use and/or the Online Services (whether based in
contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation or any other legal theory)
will be resolved by binding arbitration, except that you may take claims to
small claims court if they qualify for hearing by such a court.

You must first present any claim or dispute to us by contacting us to allow us
an opportunity to resolve the dispute. You may request arbitration if your claim
or dispute cannot be resolved within sixty (60) days after presenting the claim
or dispute to us. We may request arbitration against you at any time after it
has notified you of a claim or dispute. The arbitration of any dispute or claim
shall be conducted in accordance with the then current and applicable rules of
the American Arbitration Association as modified by these Conditions of Use. The
place of any arbitration shall be exclusively Franklin County, Ohio, USA, and
shall be conducted in the English language; provided, however, you may request
that any or all proceedings within the arbitration be conducted by phone or
written submission.

Claims will be heard by a single arbitrator. The arbitrator may not award relief
in excess of or contrary to what this agreement provides, order consolidation or
arbitration on a class wide or representative basis, award damages aside from
the prevailing party’s actual damages, or order injunctive or declaratory
relief; except that the arbitrator may award on an individual basis damages
required by statute and may order injunctive or declaratory relief pursuant to
an applicable consumer protection statute.

Any arbitration shall be confidential, and neither you, nor us nor the
arbitrator may disclose the existence, content or results of any arbitration,
except as may be required by law or for purposes of enforcement or appeal of the
arbitration award. Judgment on any arbitration award may be entered in any court
having proper jurisdiction. If any portion of this arbitration clause is
determined by a court to be inapplicable or invalid, then the remainder shall
still be given full force and effect. There shall be no right or authority for
any claims subject to the arbitration clause to be arbitrated on a class action
or consolidated basis or on bases involving claims brought in a purported
representative capacity on behalf of the general public (including, but not
limited to, as a private attorney general).

We will pay all administrative filing fees for any arbitration that we initiate.
All other administration filing fees will be divided between you and us
according to the then-current applicable rules of the American Arbitration
Association. Each party will bear the expense of its own counsel, experts,
witnesses and preparation and presentation of evidence at the arbitration
hearing. We will not seek to recover attorneys’ fees from you for any claims
filed in arbitration that are not frivolous.

If you do not wish to be bound by arbitration and waive your rights to
participate in a class-action, you must notify us in writing by certified United
States mail within thirty (30) days of the date that you first access the Online
Services after the effective date of these Conditions of Use and include: (i)
your name, (ii) your account number or user name, if any, (iii) your mailing
address, (iv) name of Online Service to which your request applies or the
original purchase receipt showing the product name and date of purchase used in
connection with the Online Services, if any, and (v) a statement that you do not
wish to resolve disputes with us through arbitration. You must send your notice
in care of ScottsMiracleGro, 14111 Scottslawn Road, Marysville, Ohio 43040,
Attn: Legal Department. If you do not notify us within the time and method
provided, you agree to be bound by the arbitration and class-action waiver
provisions of these Conditions of Use.

The requirement of arbitration does not apply to actions for injunctive or other
equitable relief to protect confidential information and intellectual property
rights or to prevent loss of data or damage to our Online Services or servers in
any court of competent jurisdiction.


LIMITATION ON TIME TO FILE CLAIMS

You agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or
cause of action arising between you and us including those that arise out of or
are related to use of the Online Services must be filed within one (1) year
after such claim or cause of action arose or be forever barred.


WAIVER AND SEVERABILITY

No waiver by the Company of any term or condition set out in these Conditions of
Use shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or condition or
a waiver of any other term or condition, and any failure of the Company to
assert a right or provision under these Conditions of Use shall not constitute a
waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of these Conditions of Use
is held by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be invalid,
illegal, or unenforceable for any reason, such provision shall be eliminated or
limited to the minimum extent such that the remaining provisions of these
Conditions of Use will continue in full force and effect.


ENTIRE AGREEMENT

These Conditions of Use, together with any applicable Terms of Sale, and any
applicable Supplemental Terms constitute the sole and entire agreement between
you and us and our affiliates regarding the Online Services and supersede all
prior and contemporaneous understandings, agreements, representations, and
warranties, both written and oral, regarding the Online Services.
