Arbitration of Disputes. Any dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with this Agreement shall be settled exclusively by arbitration in Albany, New York, in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association then in effect. Judgment may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. In the event that the Company terminates the Executive’s employment for cause under Section 6(b) and the Executive contends that cause did not exist, then the Company’s only obligation shall be to submit such claim to arbitration and the only issue before the arbitrator will be whether the Executive was in fact terminated for cause. If the arbitrator determines that the Executive was not terminated for cause by the Company, then the only remedies that the arbitrator may award are (i) payment of amounts which would have been payable if the Executive’s employment had been terminated under Section 6(e), (ii) the costs of arbitration, (iii) the Executive’s attorneys’ fees, and (iv) all rights and benefits granted or in effect with respect to the Executive under the Company’s stock option plans and agreements with the Executive pursuant thereto, with the vesting and exercise of any stock options and the forfeit ability of any stock-based grants held by the Executive to be governed by the terms of such plans and the related agreements between the Executive and the Company. If the arbitrator finds that the Executive’s employment was terminated for cause, the arbitrator will be without authority to award the Executive anything, and the parties will each be responsible for their own attorneys’ fees, and they will divide the costs of arbitration equally. Furthermore, should a dispute occur concerning the Executive’s mental or physical capacity as described in Section 6(c), a doctor selected by the Executive and a doctor selected by the Company shall be entitled to examine the Executive. If the opinion of the Company’s doctor and the Executive’s doctor conflict, the Company’s doctor and the Executive’s doctor shall together agree upon a third doctor, whose opinion shall be binding. This Section 12 shall survive the termination of this Agreement for any reason.

The arbitration shall be subject to such rules of procedure used or established by JAMS, or if there are none, the rules of procedure used or established by AAA. Any award rendered by JAMS or AAA shall be final and binding upon the parties, and as applicable, their respective heirs, legal representatives, agents, successors and assigns, and may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.
