8. RISK FACTORS
You are solely responsible for reviewing, understanding and considering the risks below and any additional risks, including without limitation those described in the Purchase Agreement and the Materials. You understand that there cannot be any assurance, and the Company makes no such assurance, that the LITTLAND Tiles shall ever hold or maintain value. The Company’s operations, financial condition, and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected by any one or more of the risk factors below, as could the underlying value of each Purchaser’s LITTLAND Tiles, which may lead to the LITTLAND Tiles losing all value.
Risk Factors, include but are not limited to the following:
- The Development of the Game could fail or even be aborted in the future, which would likely negatively affect the value and utility of LITTLAND Tiles. There can be no guarantee that the Game shall be continued to be developed effectively or at all.
- The LITTLAND Tiles and the Game may change over time as the Company develops further Game features and experiences.
- No one can guarantee the source code of Site to be flaw-free. Flaws, errors, defects and bugs may disable functionality for users, expose users’ information or otherwise negatively impact users. This could compromise the usability, stability, and/or security of the Site could consequently adversely impact the value and utility of LITTLAND Tiles and the Game.
- Certain parts of the Site’s underlying protocol will be based on open-source computer code which may restrict or make impractical a claim of copyright or any other type of intellectual property right with respect to the source code. As a result, anyone can legally copy, replicate, reproduce, engineer, modify, upgrade, improve, recode, reprogram or otherwise utilize the source code and/or underlying protocol of the Website in an attempt to develop a competing protocol, software, system or digital platform. Such competition may find success or ultimately even overshadow or overtake the popularity or functionality of the Site. The Company and the Company Parties will in no case be capable of eliminating, preventing, restricting or minimizing such competing efforts that aim to contest with or overtake Site.
- Services or programs which may be banned, restricted or deemed immoral in certain jurisdictions, such as gambling, betting, lottery, sweepstake, pornography, terrorism, hate crime and otherwise, could take advantage of the unpermissioned nature of the Site to develop, promote, market or operate. Regulators of a number of jurisdictions may accordingly take administrative or judicial actions against such programs, applications, services or even the relevant developers or users thereof. Any penal action, sanction, crackdown or other regulatory effort made by any government, quasi-government, authority or public body (including but not limited to any regulatory body of any jurisdiction) may significantly deter existing or potential users away from using the Site. In such circumstances, the prospects and viability of Website and the Game may be adversely impacted. There is no guarantee that the Site will be free from all inappropriate, illegal or immoral use at any time.
- As part of the process for the sale of LITTLAND Tiles, Company may collect and retain personal information from you. The collection and retention of such information is subject to applicable laws and regulations. Further, databases holding such information are vulnerable to breaches and other forms of unauthorized access. The Company Parties may be required to expend significant financial resources to alleviate problems caused by any breaches or losses, settle fines and resolve inquiries from regulatory or government authorities. Any information breaches or losses will also damage the Company Parties’ reputation and thereby may harm the Game.
- Tax laws and regulations are highly complex and subject to interpretation, especially when cross-border transactions and multiple tax jurisdictions are involved. Consequently, Company and the Company Parties are subject to changing tax laws, treaties and regulations. If any tax authority successfully challenges the operational structure of the sale of LITTLAND Tiles or the Game, or if Company or the Company Parties loses a material tax dispute, the Company Parties’ tax liabilities could increase substantially. This could cause the Company Parties’ financial resources to be constrained or impaired, and could cause the Company Parties to redomicile or to alter its legal entity structure in order to optimize its tax situation. This in turn could negatively affect the Company Parties’ ability to manage and grow the Game, which would negatively impact the utility and value of LITTLAND Tiles.
- You must also investigate yourself as to the regulations within the countries of your nationality, residence, ordinary residence or domicile regarding purchasing the LITTLAND Tiles. The Company does not offer to sell LITTLAND Tiles and is not soliciting the purchase of the LITTLAND Tiles in any jurisdiction or to any person to whom it is unlawful to make such an offer or solicitation in such jurisdiction.

20. DISPUTE RESOLUTION
Informal Negotiations
To expedite resolution and control the cost of any dispute, controversy, or claim related to these Terms of Service (each a “Dispute” and collectively, the “Disputes“) brought by either you or us (individually, a “Party” and collectively, the “Parties“), the Parties agree to first attempt to negotiate any Dispute (except those Disputes expressly provided below) informally for at least thirty (30) days before initiating arbitration. Such informal negotiations commence upon written notice from one Party to the other Party.
Binding Arbitration
You agree to resolve all disputes through binding individual arbitration, which means that you waive any right to have the dispute decided by a judge or jury, and you waive any right to participate in collective action, whether that be a class action, class arbitration, or representative action. Any arbitration between you and LITTLAND Inc will be settled and administered by the Australian Centre for International Commercial Arbitration (“ACICA”) under its Arbitration Rules (collectively, “ACICA Rules”) as modified by these Terms. The ACICA Rules and filing forms are available online at www.acica.org, by calling the ACICA at +612 9223 1099, or by contacting LITTLAND. The arbitrator has exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, or enforceability of this binding arbitration agreement.
Restrictions
The Parties agree that any arbitration shall be limited to the Dispute between the Parties individually. To the full extent permitted by law, (a) no arbitration shall be joined with any other proceeding; (b) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be arbitrated on a class-action basis or to utilize class action procedures; and (c) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public or any other persons.
Exceptions to Informal Negotiations and Arbitration
The Parties agree that the following Disputes are not subject to the above provisions concerning informal negotiations binding arbitration: (a) any Disputes seeking to enforce or protect, or concerning the validity of, any of the intellectual property rights of a Party; (b) any Dispute related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use; and (c) any claim for injunctive relief. If this provision is found to be illegal or unenforceable, then neither Party will elect to arbitrate any Dispute falling within that portion of this provision found to be illegal or unenforceable and such Dispute shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction within the courts listed for jurisdiction above, and the Parties agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.
