Batch Arbitration Sample Clauses

Batch Arbitration. To increase the efficiency of administration and resolution of arbitrations, you and the Bank agree that in the event that there are one hundred (100) or more individual Requests of a substantially similar nature filed against the Bank by or with the assistance of the same law firm, group of law firms or organizations within a thirty (30) day period (or otherwise in close proximity), the AAA (1) will administer the arbitration demands in batches of 100 Requests per batch (plus, to the extent there are less than 100 Requests left over after the batching described above, a final batch consisting of the remaining Requests); (2) appoint one arbitrator for each batch; and (3) provide for the resolution of each batch as a single consolidated arbitration with one set of filing and administrative fees due per side per batch, one procedural calendar, one hearing (if any) in a place to be determined by the arbitrator, and one final award (“Batch Arbitration”). All parties agree that Requests are of a “substantially similar nature” if they arise out of the same event or factual scenario and raise the same or similar legal issues and seek the same or similar relief. To the extent the parties disagree on the application of the Batch Arbitration process, the disagreeing party shall advise the AAA, and the AAA shall appoint a sole standing arbitrator to determine the applicability of the Batch Arbitration process (“Administrative Arbitrator”). In an effort to expedite resolution of any such dispute by the Administrative Arbitrator, the parties agree the Administrative Arbitrator may set forth such procedures as are necessary to resolve any disputes promptly. The Administrative Arbitrator’s fees shall be paid by the Bank. You and the Bank agree to cooperate in good faith with the AAA to implement the Batch Arbitration approach including the payment of single filing and administrative fees for batches of Requests, as well as any steps to minimize the time and costs of arbitration, which may include: (1) the appointment of a discovery special master to assist the arbitrator in the resolution of discovery disputes; and (2) the adoption of an expedited calendar of the arbitration proceedings. This Batch Arbitration provision shall in no way be interpreted as authorizing a class, collective and/or mass arbitration or action of any kind, or arbitration involving joint or consolidated claims under any circumstances, except as expressly set forth in this provision.

Batch Arbitration. To increase efficiency of resolution, in the event 20 or more similar arbitration demands against KHK, presented by or with the assistance of the same law firm or organization or group of law firms or organizations working in coordination, are submitted to JAMS in accordance with the rules described above within a 60-day period, JAMS shall consolidate those arbitrations as contemplated in the JAMS Rules by (a) grouping the arbitration demands into batches of no more than 25 demands per batch (plus, to the extent there are fewer than 25 arbitration demands left over after the batching described above, a final batch consisting of the remaining demands); and (b) providing for resolution of each batch as a single arbitration with one set of filing and administrative fees and one arbitrator assigned per batch. For avoidance of doubt, consolidation does not require that all arbitrations in a single batch be decided the same, nor does it impair your right to present any evidence or argument that you think particular to your case, so long as consistent with JAMS Rules. You agree to cooperate in good faith with KHK and JAMS to implement such a batch approach to resolution and fees.
