Arbitration Provisions 1. Within fifteen (15) duty days of its notice to the Superintendent, the Association shall request the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service (FMCS) to submit a panel of seven arbitrators who are qualified to hear public sector grievances or may jointly agree to set up a panel of arbitrators from which to make a choice. Upon receipt of the panel, the parties shall select, within twenty-one (21) calendar days, an arbitrator by the alternate striking method or other mutually agreeable method, and shall notify the FMCS of the arbitrator selected. The parties shall not be precluded from mutually agreeing on an arbitrator not on the panel. 2. If for some reason the arbitrator will be unable to serve or the parties mutually agree that no person on the panel is suitable, the parties shall jointly request the FMCS to submit a new panel of seven arbitrators from which an arbitrator will be selected in the same manner. 3. Arbitration hearings shall be scheduled within sixty (60) calendar days of selection unless the parties agree to extend the timeline or the arbitrator is unavailable within the timeline. All arbitration proceedings shall be conducted under and governed by the rules of the FMCS. 4. The parties agree to accept the arbitrator’s award as binding upon them. 5. The parties shall share equally the cost of arbitration. 6. Should either party request a stenographic transcript of the proceedings, then that party will bear the full costs for said transcript. If both parties mutually agree to a stenographic transcript, then the cost of said transcript will be divided equally between the parties. 7. The arbitrator’s decision shall be in writing and shall set forth his/her findings of fact, reasoning and conclusions on issues submitted.
Resolution of Conflicts; Arbitration (i) In case the Shareholder Representative shall object in writing to any claim or claims made in any Officer's Certificate within thirty (30) days after delivery of such Officer's Certificate, the Shareholder Representative and Parent shall attempt in good faith to agree upon the rights of the respective parties with respect to each of such claims. If the Shareholder Representative and Parent should so agree, a memorandum setting forth such agreement shall be prepared and signed by both parties. If any claim against the Escrow Fund was sought, such memorandum shall be furnished to the Escrow Agent and the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to rely on any such memorandum and make payment out of the Escrow Fund in accordance with the terms thereof. (ii) If no such agreement can be reached after good faith negotiation (or in any event after 60 days from the date of the Officer's Certificate), either Parent or the Shareholder Representative may demand arbitration of the matter unless the amount of the damage or loss is at issue in pending litigation with a third party, in which event arbitration shall not be commenced until such amount is ascertained or both parties agree to arbitration; and in either such event the matter shall be settled by arbitration conducted by three arbitrators. Parent and the Shareholder Representative shall each select one arbitrator, and the two arbitrators so selected shall select a third arbitrator. The arbitrators shall set a limited time period and establish procedures designed to reduce the cost and time for discovery while allowing the parties an opportunity, adequate in the sole judgment of the arbitrators, to discover relevant information from the opposing parties about the subject matter of the dispute. The arbitrators shall rule upon motions to compel or limit discovery and shall have the authority to impose sanctions, including attorneys' fees and costs, to the same extent as a court of law or equity, should the arbitrators determine that discovery was sought without substantial justification or that discovery was refused or objected to without substantial justification. The decision of a majority of the three arbitrators as to the validity and amount of any claim in such Officer's Certificate shall be binding and conclusive upon the parties to this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything in Section 7.2(e) hereof, the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to act in accordance with such decision and make or withhold payments out of the Escrow Fund in accordance therewith. Such decision shall be written and shall be supported by written findings of fact and conclusions which shall set forth the award, judgment, decree or order awarded by the arbitrators. (iii) Judgment upon any award rendered by the arbitrators may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. Any such arbitration shall be held in Santa Xxxxx County, California under the rules then in effect of the American Arbitration Association. The arbitrators shall determine how all expenses relating to the arbitration shall be paid, including without limitation, the respective expenses of each party, the fees of each arbitrator and the administrative fee of the American Arbitration Association.
