7.MISCELLANEOUS
7.1Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, U.S., without giving effect to any choice of law principles that would require the application of the laws of a different jurisdiction. The application of the U.N. Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is excluded.
7.2Binding Arbitration.
(i)All disputes under this Agreement shall be submitted by either Party for resolution in arbitration administered by the International Chamber of Commerce (the “ICC”) pursuant to its arbitration rules and procedures then in effect.
7    


(ii)The arbitration shall be conducted by a panel of three (3) arbitrators: within thirty (30) days after initiation of arbitration, each Party shall select one (1) person to act as arbitrator and the two Party-selected arbitrators shall select a third arbitrator (who shall be the chairperson of the arbitration panel) within thirty (30) days of their appointment. If the arbitrators selected by the Parties are unable or fail to agree upon the third arbitrator, the third arbitrator shall be appointed by ICC. If, however, the aggregate award sought by the Parties is less than US$5,000,000 and equitable relief is not sought, the arbitration shall be conducted by a single arbitrator agreed by the Parties (or appointed by ICC if the Parties cannot agree). The seat of arbitration shall be New York City, New York and the language of the proceedings shall be English.
(iii)The Parties agree that any award or decision made by the arbitral tribunal shall be final and binding upon them and may be enforced in the same manner as a judgment or order of a court of competent jurisdiction. The arbitral tribunal shall determine the dispute by applying the provisions of this Agreement and the governing law set forth in Section 7.1.
(iv)By agreeing to arbitration, the Parties do not intend to deprive any court of its jurisdiction to issue, at the request of a Party, a pre-arbitral injunction, pre-arbitral attachment or other order to avoid irreparable harm, maintain the status quo, preserve the subject matter of the dispute, or aid the arbitration proceedings and the enforcement of any award. Without prejudice to such provisional or interim remedies in aid of arbitration as may be available under the jurisdiction of a competent court, the arbitral tribunal shall have full authority to grant provisional or interim remedies and to award damages for the failure of any party to the dispute to respect the arbitral tribunal’s order to that effect.
(v)EACH PARTY HERETO WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY ISSUE RELATING TO ANY DISPUTE ARISING HEREUNDER.
(vi)Each Party shall bear its own attorney’s fees, costs, and disbursements arising out of the arbitration, and shall pay an equal share of the fees and costs of the administrator and the arbitrator; provided, however, the arbitrator shall be authorized to determine whether a Party is the prevailing party, and if so, to award to that prevailing party reimbursement for any or all of its reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and disbursements (including, for example, expert witness fees and expenses, photocopy charges, travel expenses, etc.), or the fees and costs of the administrator and the arbitrator.
