CONTESTANT APPLICATION

Producer and network or channel on which the Program will air if any person attempts or has attempted to induce me to do anything in violation of the foregoing or which is in any way dishonest. As used herein, Producer shall mean AXN Holdings, LLC and its licensees, successors and assigns, and each of their respective officers, directors, parents, subsidiaries, shareholders, employees, agents and representatives. I agree that Producer may license, assign or otherwise transfer this Application and all rights granted by me under this Application to any person or entity. Whenever possible, each provision of this Application shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Application is held to be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Application. I am proficient in reading, writing and speaking the English language and have fully read, understand, and agree with the foregoing, and have voluntarily chosen to sign this Application. This Application shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, United States of America, without regard to choice of law principles. All actions or proceedings arising in connection with, touching upon or relating to this Application, the breach thereof and/or the scope of the provisions of this Application shall be submitted to JAMS (JAMS) for final and binding arbitration under its Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures if the matter in dispute is over US$250,000 or under its Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures if the matter in dispute is US$250,000 or less, to be held in Los Angeles County, California, in the English language before a single arbitrator who shall be a retired judge, in accordance with California Code of Civil Procedure 1280 et seq. The arbitrator shall be selected by mutual agreement of the parties or, if the parties cannot agree, then by striking from a list of arbitrators supplied by JAMS. The arbitration shall be a confidential proceeding, closed to the general public. The arbitrator shall assess the cost of the arbitration against the losing party. In addition, the prevailing party in any arbitration or legal proceeding relating to this Application shall be entitled to all reasonable expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the arbitrator may require that such fees be borne in such other manner as the arbitrator determines is required in order for this arbitration clause to be enforceable under applicable law. The arbitrator shall issue a written opinion stating the essential findings and conclusions upon which the arbitrators award is based. The arbitrator shall have the power to enter temporary restraining orders and preliminary and permanent injunctions. Neither party shall be entitled or permitted to commence or maintain any action in a court of law with respect to any matter in dispute until such matter shall have been submitted to arbitration as herein provided and then only for the enforcement of the arbitrators award; provided, however, that prior to the appointment of the arbitrator or for remedies beyond the jurisdiction of an arbitrator, at any time, either party may seek pendente lite relief in a court of competent jurisdiction in Los Angeles County, California or, if sought by Producer, such other court that may have jurisdiction over me, without thereby waiving its right to arbitration of the dispute or controversy under this Application. Without prejudice to any other rights or remedies which Producer may have, I acknowledge and agree that damages would not be an adequate remedy for any breach of this Application and the remedies of injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief from a competent court with jurisdiction over me are appropriate for any threatened or actual breach of this Application, for the protection of Producers rights and in the interest of the Program. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, I hereby irrevocably waive any right or remedy to seek and/or obtain injunctive or other equitable relief or any order with respect to, and/or to enjoin or restrain or otherwise impair in any manner, the production, distribution, exhibition or other exploitation of any motion picture, production or project related to Producer, its parents, subsidiaries and affiliates, or the use, publication or dissemination of
