Common use of Dispute Resolution and Binding Arbitration Clause in Contracts

Dispute Resolution and Binding Arbitration. Employee and the Company agree that in the event a dispute arises concerning or relating to this Agreement, or to Employee’s employment with the Company, or any termination therefrom, all such disputes shall be submitted to binding arbitration before an arbitrator experienced in employment law. Said arbitration will be conducted in accordance with the rules applicable to employment disputes of Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services (“JAMS”). The Company will be responsible for paying any filing fees and costs of the arbitration proceeding itself (for example, arbitrators’ fees, conference room, transcripts), but each party shall be responsible for its own attorneys’ fees. The Company and Employee agree that this promise to arbitrate covers any disputes that the Company may have against Employee, or that Employee may have against the Company and all of its affiliated entities and their directors, officers and Employees, arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the employment relationship or termination of employment, including any claims concerning the validity, interpretation, effect or violation of this Agreement; violation of any federal, state, or local law; any tort; and any other aspect of Employee’s compensation or employment. The Company and Employee further agree that arbitration as provided in this Section 10(e) shall be the exclusive and binding remedy for any such dispute and will be used instead of any court action, which is hereby expressly waived, except for any request by either party hereto for temporary or preliminary injunctive relief pending arbitration in accordance with applicable law, or an administrative claim with an administrative agency. The Federal Arbitration Act shall govern the interpretation and enforcement of such arbitration proceeding. The arbitrator shall apply the substantive law (and the law of remedies, if applicable) of the State of California, or federal law, if California law is preempted. The arbitration shall be conducted in Los Angeles, California, unless otherwise mutually agreed.
