§1-16, and to the fullest extent permitted by law, by final, binding and confidential arbitration by a single arbitrator, who is a former state or federal court judge, and conducted in Boise, Idaho by Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services Inc. (“JAMS”) under the then applicable JAMS rules (at the following web address: xxxx://xxx.xxxxxxx.xxx/xxxxxxxxxxxx). A hard copy of the rules will be provided to Employee upon request.

The arbitrator may not consolidate the claims of more than one person or entity, and may not preside over any form of representative or class proceeding. To the extent that the preceding sentences regarding class claims or proceedings are found to violate applicable law or are otherwise found unenforceable, any claim(s) alleged or brought on behalf of a class shall proceed in a court of law rather than by arbitration. The Company acknowledges that Employee will have the right to be represented by legal counsel at any arbitration proceeding.

Any awards or orders in such
