COVID-19
The novel Coronavirus, commonly known as COVID-19, has been declared a worldwide pandemic by the World Health Organization. COVID-19 is extremely contagious and is believed to spread mainly from person-to-person contact. As a result, federal, state, and local governments and federal and state health agencies recommend social distancing and have, in many locations, prohibited the congregation of groups of people.
We have put in place preventative measures to reduce the spread of COVID-19; however, we cannot guaranty that you will not become infected with COVID-19 if you visit a The 5 Facility. Further, your attendance at The 5 Facilitys could increase your risk of contracting COVID-19.
By visiting a The 5 Facility, you acknowledge the contagious nature of COVID-19 and voluntarily assume the risk that you may be exposed to or infected by COVID-19 by visiting the The 5 Facility, and that such 5 exposure or infection may result in personal injury, illness, permanent disability, and death. You understand that the risk of becoming exposed to or infected by COVID-19 at the The 5 Facility may result from the actions, omissions, or negligence of yourself and others, including, but not limited to, The 5 or its employees. You voluntarily agree to assume all of the foregoing risks, accept sole responsibility and release all claims for any injury to yourself (including, but not limited to, personal injury, disability, and death), illness, damage, loss, claim, liability, or expense, of any kind, that you may experience or incur in connection with your use of the The 5 Facility.
Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend and hold The 5 harmless from any claim or demand, including reasonable attorney's fees and costs, made by any third party due to or arising out of your use of the Site, your posting of any information to the Site, or your visiting or use of The 5 Facility, that is inconsistent with these Terms of Use, including without limitation your actual or alleged violation of these Terms of Use, or infringement of a third party's intellectual property or other rights by you or another user of our Digital Services using your computer, mobile device or account.
Dispute Resolution
Any dispute arising out of or relating in any way to your use of our Digital Services, your visiting or use of The 5 Facility, or information you receive through our Digital Services, shall be submitted to confidential, binding arbitration in Los Angeles, California before one arbitrator. The arbitration shall be administered by JAMS pursuant to its Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures. The arbitrator's award shall be final and binding and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. No arbitration under these Terms of Use may be joined with another arbitration related to the subject matter hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing arbitration requirement, with regard to any actual or potential violation of our intellectual property rights, we may seek injunctive or other appropriate relief in the courts of Los Angeles, California, and you hereby consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts and waive all objections thereto. We each agree that any dispute resolution proceedings will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated or representative action. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration we each waive any right to a jury trial.
Governing Laws
The laws of the state of California and the United States govern these Terms of Use and any claims arising out of or relating to use of our Digital Services or your visiting and use of The 5 Facility, without giving effect to any choice of law rules. With the exception of any matters subject to arbitration as described above, the state and federal courts located in Los Angeles, California will serve as the venue for any actions brought, or claims made, arising out of your use of our services, including our Digital Services, or your visiting or use of the The 5 Facility.

Your continued use of any of our services or your attendance at The 5 after such modifications are 6 posted constitutes your acknowledgement and acceptance of such modifications. You may not amend these Terms of Use.
Other Terms
If any provision of these Terms of Use is determined by a court of law to be unlawful, void or unenforceable for any reason, the other provisions (and any partially-enforceable provision) shall not be affected thereby and shall remain valid and enforceable to the maximum possible extent, and the invalid provision will be modified as necessary to make it valid and enforceable while as closely as possible reflecting the original intentions of The 5. You agree that these Terms of Use and any other agreements referenced herein may be assigned by us, in our sole discretion, to a third party in the event of a merger or acquisition or otherwise. These Terms of Use shall apply in addition to, and shall not be superseded by, any other written agreement between us in relation to your use of our Digital Services or The 5 Facility. You agree and understand that these Terms of Use together with any other applicable clickthrough agreements you may have entered into regarding our Digital Services, constitutes the entire agreement between you and The 5 regarding your use of the Services and your attendance at The 5 Facility, and that any other prior agreements between you and The 5 are superseded by these Terms of Use. Any failure by The 5 to exercise its rights under these Terms of Use or to enforce the terms hereof will not constitute a waiver of those rights. You agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to use of our services or The 5 Facility, or relating to these Terms of Use must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose or be forever barred. A printed version of these Terms of Use and of any notice given in electronic form shall be admissible in judicial or administrative proceedings based upon or relating to the Terms of Use to the same extent and subject to the same conditions as other business documents and records originally generated and maintained in printed form.
