Accordingly, the aggrieved party will give notice of the dispute to the other party and both parties will attempt to settle the dispute during the thirty (30) day period following such notice. If such dispute remains unsettled, the parties agree to then submit such dispute to mediation. If the parties cannot agree on a mediator, each will select a mediator and the two chosen mediators will select a third mediator who shall alone hear the dispute. Such mediation will, if possible, be conducted during the sixty (60) day period following expiration of the thirty (30) day period. If such mediation fails to resolve the dispute, the parties agree such dispute will be submitted to final and binding arbitration in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association. Unless otherwise directed by the arbitrator, such arbitration must be concluded within ninety (90) days of the expiration of the sixty (60) day period previously specified for mediation.

If any party fails to participate in mediation or arbitration after receipt of notice thereof, then each party hereto agrees that the other party shall have the right to proceed immediately to arbitration and that such other party shall be entitled to select the arbitrator in its sole discretion. Each party further agrees that, in such event, such arbitrator shall have the right to decide the dispute as if the non- participating party were participating in the arbitration and that such decision shall be final and binding upon each party hereto.

  • Choice of Law; Arbitration (a) Notwithstanding the place where this Agreement may be executed by any of the parties hereto, the parties expressly agree that all the terms and provisions hereof shall be construed under the laws of the State of Delaware, including the Delaware Act without regard to the conflict of law principles of such State. (b) To the extent such action is consistent with the provisions of the 1940 Act and any other applicable law, except as provided in Section 8.11(b) of this Agreement, each Member agrees to submit all controversies arising between or among Members or one or more Members and the Company in connection with the Company or its businesses or concerning any transaction, dispute or the construction, performance or breach of this Agreement or any other agreement relating to the Company, whether entered into prior to, on or subsequent to the date of this Agreement, to arbitration in accordance with the provisions set out in this Section 8.6. EACH MEMBER UNDERSTANDS THAT ARBITRATION IS FINAL AND BINDING ON THE MEMBERS AND THAT THE MEMBERS IN EXECUTING THIS AGREEMENT ARE WAIVING THEIR RIGHTS TO SEEK REMEDIES IN COURT, INCLUDING THE RIGHT TO JURY TRIAL. (c) Controversies will be finally settled by, and only by, arbitration in accordance with the commercial arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”) to the fullest extent permitted by law. The place of arbitration will be New York, New York. Any arbitration under this Section 8.6 will be conducted before a panel of three arbitrators. The Member or Members initiating arbitration under this Section 8.6 will appoint one arbitrator in the demand for arbitration. The Member or Members against whom or which arbitration is sought will jointly appoint one arbitrator within 30 business days after notice from the AAA of the filing of the demand for arbitration. The two arbitrators nominated by the Members will attempt to agree on a third arbitrator within 30 business days of the appointment of the second arbitrator. If the two arbitrators fail to agree on the third arbitrator within the 30-day period, then the AAA will appoint the third arbitrator within 30 business days following the expiration of the 30-day period. Any award rendered by the arbitrators will be final and binding on the Members, and judgment upon the award may be entered in the supreme court of the state of New York and/or the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, or any other court having jurisdiction over the award or having jurisdiction over the Members or their assets. The arbitration agreement contained in this Section 8.6 will not be construed to deprive any court of its jurisdiction to grant provisional relief (including by injunction or order of attachment) in aid of arbitration proceedings or enforcement of an award. In the event of arbitration as provided in this Section 8.6, the arbitrators will be governed by and will apply the substantive (but not procedural) law of Delaware, to the exclusion of the principles of the conflicts of law of Delaware. The arbitration will be conducted in accordance with the procedures set out in the commercial arbitration rules of the AAA. If those rules are silent with respect to a particular matter, the procedure will be as agreed by the Members, or in the absence of agreement among or between the Members, as established by the arbitrators. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, this Section 8.6(c) will be construed to the maximum extent possible to comply with the laws of the State of Delaware, including the Uniform Arbitration Act (10 Del. C. (S) 5701 et seq.) (the “Delaware Arbitration Act”). If, nevertheless, it is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that any provision or wording of this Section 8.6(c), including any rules of the AAA, are invalid or unenforceable under the Delaware Arbitration Act or other applicable law, such invalidity will not invalidate all of this Section 8.6(c). In that case, this Section 8.6(c) will be construed so as to limit any term or provision so as to make it valid or enforceable within the requirements of the Delaware Arbitration Act or other applicable law, and, in the event such term or provision cannot be so limited, this Section 8.6(c) will be construed to omit such invalid or unenforceable provision.

These two so selected shall designate the third member or referee of the Board. In the event these two so selected shall be unable, within fifteen (15) days, to agree upon the third member or referee, then the third mem­ ber of the Board shall forthwith be desig­ nated under the rules and procedures of the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service.

  • Governing Law; Arbitration This Agreement shall be governed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without giving effect to the conflicts of law principles thereof. Any dispute, controversy or claim (each, a “Dispute”) arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or the interpretation, breach, termination, validity or invalidity thereof, shall be referred to arbitration upon the demand of either party to the dispute with notice (the “Arbitration Notice”) to the other.

Such arbitrators shall be freely selected, and the parties shall not be limited in their selection to any prescribed list. The chairman of the HKIAC shall select the third arbitrator. If either party to the arbitration fails to appoint an arbitrator with the Selection Period, the relevant appointment shall be made by the chairman of the HKIAC. The arbitral proceedings shall be conducted in English. To the extent that the HKIAC Rules are in conflict with the provisions of this Section 5.2, including the provisions concerning the appointment of the arbitrators, this Section 5.2 shall prevail.
