Arbitration
By accessing the Website and using the information therein available and/or by
purchasing any products or services made available through the Website, you
agree with MBA, its service providers, their affiliates, parents, subsidiaries
and any other content provider or offeror of goods or services on this site or
through any other associated activity, that any claim or dispute ("Claim"), you
may have against or with any of these persons or entities, whether related to
the Terms of Use or the Privacy Policy, the purchase of any product or service
or to the Content, including the enforceability of this arbitration clause, and
whether under a statute, in contract, tort, or otherwise and whether for money
damages, or declaratory or equitable relief, shall be resolved by binding
arbitration before a single arbitrator under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of
the American Arbitration Association. Any arbitration hearing at which you
appear will take place within the District of Columbia, and judgment on the
award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction
thereof. The arbitrator shall have no power or authority to make any award that
provides for punitive or exemplary damages. Each party shall bear its own costs
in connection with any arbitration proceedings. The parties shall equally share
the fees of the arbitration and the arbitrator. This arbitration agreement is
made pursuant to a transaction involving interstate commerce, and shall be
governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16 ("FAA"). The
arbitrator shall follow  applicable substantive law , to the extent consistent
with the FAA, and applicable statutes of limitations and shall honor any claims
or privilege recognized by law. If any party requests, the arbitrator shall
write an opinion containing the reasons for the award. NO CLAIM SUBMITTED TO
ARBITRATION IS HEARD BY A JURY, AND NO CLAIM MAY BE BROUGHT AS A CLASS ACTION OR
AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL. You do not have the right to act as a class
representative or participate as a member of a class of claimants with respect
to any Claim. This Arbitration Section applies to all Claims now in existence or
that may arise and shall survive the termination of any dealings with us. For
the purposes of this Arbitration Section, "we" and "us" means MBA, its parent,
subsidiaries, affiliates, licensees or sublicensees, predecessors, successors,
assigns and all of their officers, directors, employees, agents and assigns or
any and all of them. Additionally, "we" or "us" shall mean any third party
providing benefits, services, or products in connection with the Website and all
of their officers, directors, employees and agents if, and only if, such a third
party is named by you as a co-defendant in any Claim you assert against us. If
any part of this Arbitration Section is found to be invalid or unenforceable
under any law or statute consistent with the FAA, the remainder of this
Arbitration Section shall be enforceable without regard to such invalidity or
unenforceability. THE RESULT OF THIS ARBITRATION SECTION IS THAT CLAIMS CANNOT
BE LITIGATED IN COURT, INCLUDING SOME CLAIMS THAT COULD HAVE BEEN TRIED BEFORE A
JURY, AS CLASS ACTIONS OR AS PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTIONS.

Trademarks
Except as indicated, MBA owns all trademarks, service marks, certification
marks, and logos featured on this site, including the terms "MBA" and the
"Mortgage Bankers Association." Use of these marks without the express written
permission of MBA is expressly prohibited.

Force Majeure
Notwithstanding any other term or condition of the Terms of Use, MBA shall not
be obligated to perform or observe its obligations undertaken in the Terms of
Use if prevented or hindered from doing so by circumstances beyond its control.
 

Indemnification
You will indemnify and hold harmless MBA and its employees, officers, directors,
providers and other agents from any and all claims and losses imposed on,
incurred by or asserted as a result of or related to: (a) any non-compliance by
you with the terms and conditions hereof; or (b) any third-party actions related
to your use of the Website and the Content, whether authorized or unauthorized
under the Terms of Use.  

Term and Termination.
This Agreement may be terminated by you upon written notice to MBA. Upon notice
to you, MBA may terminate the Terms of Use and your access to the Website, at
any time and for any reason including, but not limited to, your breach of any
term of the Terms of Use.  

Headings
Section headings are included for convenience only and are not to be used to
construe or interpret the Terms of Use.  

Waiver and Severability
No failure on the part of MBA or you to exercise and no delay in exercising any
right, power, or privilege under the Terms of Use shall operate as a waiver
thereof. If the exercise of any right, power or privilege shall to any extent be
held invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of the Terms of Use shall not be
affected thereby. Each term and provision of the Terms of Use shall be valid and
enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.   

Governing Law
The Terms of Use shall be deemed to have been made in the United States in the
District of Columbia and shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and
the validity and performance hereof shall be governed by, the laws of the
District of Columbia, without reference to principles of conflicts of laws
thereof.  

Jurisdiction and Venue
In the event of any court litigation arising under or related to the Terms of
Use, the Website and the Content, MBA and you irrevocably consent to the
exclusive jurisdiction of, and venue in, the courts, local and federal, of the
District of Columbia and submit to the personal jurisdiction of the courts
located the District of Columbia.
 
Entire Agreement
The Terms of Use constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with
respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes all prior negotiations,
communications, writings, and understandings. MBA may modify the Terms of Use
from time to time. If you do not agree to the modifications, stop using the
Website and accessing all Content (and remember to cancel any fee-based
services). Your continued use of the Website after the effective date of any
modifications means that you agree to the modifications. If any provision of the
Terms of Use is invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue
to be valid and enforceable.  

Conflict
In the case of any conflict between the Terms of Use and any additional terms
and conditions to which you may agree by accessing or using specific Content ,
the additional terms and conditions relating to the specific Content will
control in connection with your access to or use of that Content.  

Notices

and shall be directed to MBA at the address below or to you at the email address
or postal address provided by you, if any. Notice shall be deemed to have been
duly given upon actual receipt by a party, or upon constructive receipt if sent
by certified mail, postage pre-paid, return receipt requested, at such address

the other party hereto.
