Controversies and Claims Subject to Arbitration. Any controversy, dispute or claim arising out of or related to this Agreement, or the breach hereof (a "Claim"), shall be settled by arbitration in accordance with the Construction Industry Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (as modified by this Section 4.2) and judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator or arbitrators may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. In any arbitration in which the amount stated in the demand is $100,000 or less, the American Arbitration Association shall appoint a single arbitrator in accordance with such rules, who shall be a lawyer in a private law firm with ten or more partners. In any such arbitration in which the amount stated in the demand is in excess of $100,000, or in which the controversy or dispute in question does not involve a liquidated claim, the demand shall include the name of an arbitrator appointed by the claimant. The respondent shall appoint a second arbitrator, and shall notify the parties in writing of such appointment, failing which either party may apply to the American Arbitration Association to appoint such neutral arbitrator. If such neutral arbitrator is appointed by the American Arbitration Association he or she shall be a lawyer in a private law firm with ten or more partners.
