Arbitration of All Disputes Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the breach thereof shall be settled by arbitration in Chicago, Illinois, in accordance with the laws of the State of Illinois, by three arbitrators appointed by the parties. If the parties cannot agree on the appointment of the arbitrators, one shall be appointed by the Company and one by the Executive and the third shall be appointed by the first two arbitrators. If the first two arbitrators cannot agree on the appointment of a third arbitrator, then the third arbitrator shall be appointed by the Chief Judge of the United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit. The arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association, except with respect to the selection of arbitrators which shall be as provided in this paragraph 12. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrators may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. In the event that it shall be necessary or desirable for the Executive to retain legal counsel or incur other costs and expenses in connection with enforcement of his rights under this Agreement, the Company shall pay (or the Executive shall be entitled to recover from the Company, as the case may be) his reasonable attorneys' fees and costs and expenses in connection with enforcement of his rights (including the enforcement of any arbitration award in court). Payments shall be made to the Executive at the time such fees, costs and expenses are incurred. If, however, the arbitrators shall determine that, under the circumstances, payment by the Company of all or a part of any such fees and costs and expenses would be unjust, the Executive shall repay such amounts to the Company in accordance with the order of the arbitrators. Any award of the arbitrators shall include interest at a rate or rates considered just under the circumstances by the arbitrators.
Disputes or Controversies The Executive recognizes that should a dispute or controversy arising from or relating to this Agreement be submitted for adjudication to any court, arbitration panel, or other third party, the preservation of the secrecy of Confidential Information may be jeopardized. All pleadings, documents, testimony, and records relating to any such adjudication will be maintained in secrecy and will be available for inspection by the Employer, the Executive, and their respective attorneys and experts, who will agree, in advance and in writing, to receive and maintain all such information in secrecy, except as may be limited by them in writing.
Controversies If any controversy arises between the Parties to this Agreement, or with any other Party, concerning the subject matter of this Agreement, its terms or conditions, the Escrow Agent will not be required to determine the controversy or to take any action regarding it. The Escrow Agent may hold all documents and funds and may wait for settlement of any such controversy by final appropriate legal proceedings or other means as, in the Escrow Agent’s discretion, the Escrow Agent may require, despite what may be set forth elsewhere in this Agreement. In such event, the Escrow Agent will not be liable for interest or damage. Furthermore, the Escrow Agent may at its option file an action of interpleader requiring the Parties to answer and litigate any claims and rights among themselves. The Escrow Agent is authorized to deposit with the clerk of the court all documents and funds held in escrow, except all costs, expenses, charges and reasonable attorney fees incurred by the Escrow Agent due to the interpleader action and which the Company agrees to pay. Upon initiating such action, the Escrow Agent shall be fully released and discharged of and from all obligations and liability imposed by the terms of this Agreement.
