The parties to this Agreement agree that in the event there is a dispute or controversy between them that cannot be settled through direct discussions, it is in the best interests of all for such dispute or controversy to be resolved in the shortest time and with the lowest cost of resolution as practicable. Consequently, any such dispute, controversy or claim between the parties to this Agreement will not be litigated, but instead will be resolved by arbitration in accordance with Title 9 of the U.S. Code (United States Arbitration Act) and the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (the “Rules”), and judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The arbitration will be before one neutral arbitrator and will proceed under the Expedited Procedures of said Rules. The arbitration will be held in Dallas, Texas, or such other place as may be selected by mutual agreement. The arbitrator will have the discretion to order a prehearing exchange of information by the parties, and to set limits for both the scope and time period of such exchange. All issues regarding exchange requests will be decided by the arbitrator. Neither party nor the arbitrator may disclose the existence, content or results of any arbitration hereunder, unless required to do so by court or regulatory order, without the prior written consent of both parties. Administrative fees and expenses of the arbitration itself will be borne by the parties equally unless otherwise required by law, a court of competent jurisdiction or the Rules; provided, that, in no event will Employee be required to pay in excess of $1,000 of such fees and expenses. The arbitrator will also be authorized to award to the prevailing party all or that fraction of its reasonable costs and fees as is deemed equitable. Costs of a party’s representation by counsel or preparation costs for hearing are not considered administrative fees and expenses for purposes hereof. This provision will not apply to any claim for injunctive relief sought by the Employer or any of its affiliates under Section 2 or 3 of this Agreement.
