Dispute resolution; Attorney’s fees In the event RANW MLS claims that Firm, Salesperson, or Consultant has violated the RANW MLS Policies, RANW MLS may, at its option, resolve such a claim according to the disciplinary procedures set out in the RANW MLS Policies, provided RANW MLS does not also base a claim that Firm, Salesperson, or Consultant has breached this Agreement on the same facts. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, any controversy or claim to which Consultant is not a party arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or the breach thereof, shall be settled by arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Commercial Arbitration Rules, including its Optional Rules for Emergency Measures of Protection (collectively, the “Arbitration Rules”), and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The parties irrevocably agree, consent, and submit themselves to personal jurisdiction in the courts of the State of Wisconsin located in Outagamie or the federal court of the United States situated therein, as applicable, which shall have sole and exclusive jurisdiction over any action under this Agreement not subject to RANW MLS’s disciplinary procedures or to arbitration. If any party prevails in an action or proceeding to enforce or interpret this Agreement or any provision hereof, it shall be entitled to reasonable attorney’s fees and costs for the legal action.
