14.10 Arbitration. The parties agree that they shall be deemed to have agreed to binding arbitration in New York, New York with respect to the entire subject matter of any and all disputes relating to or arising under this Agreement including, but not limited to, the specific matters or disputes as to which arbitration has been expressly provided for by other provisions of this Agreement. Any such arbitration shall be by a panel of one arbitrator and pursuant to the rules then obtaining of the American Arbitration Association in New York, New York. The parties may agree in writing to conduct any arbitration in another location or forum by their mutual consent. In all arbitrations, judgment upon the arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The parties specifically designate the Courts in the County of New York, New York as properly having jurisdiction for any proceeding to confirm and enter judgment upon any such arbitration award. The parties hereby consent to and submit to the exclusive personal jurisdiction over each of them by the Courts of the State of New York in any action or proceeding, waive personal service of any and all process and specifically consent that in any such action or proceeding, any service of process may be effectuated upon any of them by certified mail, return receipt requested, in accordance with Section 14.9 of this Agreement. The parties agree, further, that the prevailing party in any such arbitration as determined by the arbitrators shall be entitled to such costs and attorney’s fees, if any, in connection with such arbitration in an amount not to exceed ten thousand ($10,000); provided, however, that if a proceeding is commenced to confirm and enter a judgment thereon by the Courts of the State of New York and such application is denied, no such costs or attorneys fees shall be paid. In connection with the arbitrators' determination for this purpose of which party, if any, is the prevailing party, they shall take into account all of the facts and circumstances including, without limitation, the relief sought, and by whom, and the relief, if any, awarded, and to whom. In addition, and notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, a party shall not be deemed to be the prevailing party unless the amount of the arbitration award is greater than fifteen (15%) percent of the amount offered in writing by the other party. For example, if the party initiating the arbitration (“A”) seeks an award of $100,000 plus costs and expenses, the other party (“B”) has offered A $50,000 prior to the commencement of the arbitration proceeding, and the arbitration panel awards any amount less than $57,500 to A, the panel should determine that B has “prevailed”.
14.11 Governing Law. The laws of the State of New York shall govern all issues concerning the relative rights of the parties pursuant to this Agreement. All other questions shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without regard to the principles of conflict of laws.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Acquisition Agreement has been executed by the parties hereto as of the day and year first written above.
