10.2         Arbitration.  Upon the failure of the informal procedure set forth in Section 10.1 to achieve a resolution of a dispute arising under this Lease, the dispute shall be submitted to arbitration as provided in this Section 10.2:

(A)          Either party may demand arbitration by giving to the other party a notice specifying with particularity the issue(s) in dispute, the amount involved, and the remedy requested.  Demand for arbitration must be given within one (1) year after the date of the act or omission out of which the dispute arose or within thirty (30) days after service of a summons and complaint in a court of competent jurisdiction alleging claims subject to this Section 10, whichever is later, as otherwise it shall be deemed to be conclusively waived.  Within twenty (20) days after receipt of the notice, the responding party shall answer the demand in writing, specifying with particularity the facts or issues that the responding party disputes.

(B)           Within ten (10) days after the responding party’s answer, each party shall select one qualified arbitrator.  Each arbitrator shall be a disinterested person qualified by education and experience to hear and determine the issues and facts to be arbitrated.  Within ten (10) days after their selection, the arbitrators so chosen shall select a neutral arbitrator similarly qualified.  If the named arbitrators cannot agree on a neutral arbitrator, either arbitrator may make application to any judge of a court of competent jurisdiction, with a copy to both parties, requesting that court to appoint the third arbitrator.  The court’s selection shall be final and binding on the parties.  If either party does not name an arbitrator, the arbitrator named by the other party shall serve as the sole arbitrator.

(C)           Within five (5) days of the appointment of the third arbitrator, each party shall present in writing to the arbitrators (with a copy to the other party) its statement of the issues and facts in dispute.  Any question regarding the arbitrability of the dispute shall be

25




decided by the arbitrators.  The arbitrators, as soon as possible, but not more than thirty (30) days after their appointment, shall meet at a time and place reasonably convenient for the parties, after giving each party at least ten (10) days notice for the purpose of setting an arbitration hearing and establishing the rules and timing of the arbitration.  Unless otherwise agreed in writing, arbitration shall be held in Reno, Nevada.  The arbitration hearing shall be conducted in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association.  If there is any conflict between the provisions of this Lease and the provisions of the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association, the provisions of this Lease shall prevail.  The failure of a party to appear at the hearing shall not operate as a default.  The attendance of all arbitrators shall be required at all hearings.  Action of the arbitrators shall be by majority vote.  After hearing the parties in regard to the matter in dispute, taking such evidence and making such other investigations as justice requires and as the arbitrators deem necessary, they shall decide the issues submitted to them within ten (10) days thereafter and serve a written, signed copy of the award upon each party.

(D)          The award shall be final and binding on the parties, and judgment on the award may be entered by any court of competent jurisdiction.  If the parties settle the dispute in the course of the arbitration, the settlement shall be approved by the arbitrators on request of either party and shall become the award.  Fees and expenses of the arbitration shall be allocated between the parties as provided by the arbitrators.

The prevailing party in the arbitration proceedings shall be entitled to receive from the other party reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses to be determined by the arbitrator(s).
