The clause creates a procedural mechanism that suspends arbitration of class-related claims until class litigation reaches certain defined outcomes. This establishes the temporal relationship between class court proceedings and arbitration obligations, requiring arbitration to remain inactive during pending class certification or class membership determinations.
Interpretive note: Enforceability of class action waivers may vary by jurisdiction and claim type; state consumer protection laws in California and other states may limit the waiver's effect in certain circumstances.
Under this provision, customers who are members of a putative class action and have not opted out are prohibited from pursuing arbitration of those claims until the class certification is denied, the class is decertified, or they are excluded from the class. The arbitration obligation does not activate for class-related claims during the pendency of class proceedings.
