The exercise of such rights shall not constitute a waiver of the rights to submit any Dispute to arbitration, and any claim or controversy related to the exercise of such rights shall be a Dispute to be resolved under the provisions of this arbitration clause. Any party may initiate arbitration with the Administrator. If any party desires to arbitrate a Dispute asserted against such party in a complaint, counterclaim, cross-claim, or third-party complaint thereto, or in an answer or other reply to any such pleading, such party must make an appropriate motion to the trial court seeking to compel arbitration, which motion must be filed with the court within 45 days of service of the pleading, or amendment thereto, setting forth such Dispute. If arbitration is compelled after commencement of litigation of a Dispute, the party obtaining an order compelling arbitration shall commence arbitration and pay the Administrator's filing fees and costs within 45 days of entry of such order.
