Except as provided by the Rules, the Arbitration shall be the sole, exclusive and final remedy for any dispute between the parties.

The Arbitration shall be heard by a panel of three arbitrators. Within 15 days after the commencement of the Arbitration, each party shall select one person to act as arbitrator and the two selected shall select a third arbitrator within ten days of their appointment. If any party fails to select an arbitrator or the arbitrators selected by the parties are unable or fail to agree upon the third arbitrator, such arbitrator shall be selected by the AAA. The place of arbitration shall be New York, New York.

The Commercial Arbitration Optional Rules for Emergency Measures of Protection are also incorporated by the parties. The award of the arbitrators shall be accompanied by a reasoned opinion.

The parties agree that failure or refusal of a party to pay its required share of the deposits for arbitrator compensation or administrative charges shall constitute a waiver by that party to present evidence or cross-examine witnesses. In such event, the other party shall be required to present evidence and legal argument as the arbitrator(s) may require for the making of an award. Such waiver shall not allow for a default judgment against the non- paying party in the absence of evidence presented as provided for above.

Notwithstanding the requirements in this section that any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or the breach thereof, shall be adjudicated by binding arbitration as set forth in this schedule, if one of the parties attempts to litigate in court (for example to argue that the arbitration clause herein is not binding or that the ruling of the arbitrator is not binding) the parties hereby irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York and the federal courts of the United States of America located in the Borough of Manhattan in New York City, New York solely in respect of the interpretation and enforcement of the provisions of this Agreement and of the documents referred to in this Agreement, and hereby waive and agree not to assert as a defense in any action, suit or proceeding for the interpretation or enforcement hereof or of any such document, that it is not subject thereto or that such action, suit or proceeding may not be brought or is not maintainable in said courts or that the venue thereof may not be appropriate or that this Agreement or any such documents may not be enforced in or by said courts. All claims with respect to such action or proceeding shall be heard and determined in such New York court or federal courts of the United States of America located in the Borough of Manhattan in New York City, New York. The parties hereby consent to and grant any such court exclusive jurisdiction over the person of the parties and over the subject matter of any such dispute. For avoidance of doubt, nothing contained in this paragraph shall prevent a party from asserting as a defense that such action, suit or proceeding is prohibited by the binding arbitration provisions contained in this Schedule IV. The parties agree that issues of arbitrability shall be resolved by the arbitrators, and that all matters involving the Agreement shall be tried in the arbitration forum.

Unless there is a final judicial determination, not subject to appeal, that Castle’s liability resulted from the Actionable Misconduct (as defined herein) of Castle, then in the event of litigation relating to this Agreement, in a court or an arbitration, Company shall be liable and pay to Castle the reasonable legal fees and costs, and/or arbitration costs, incurred by Castle in connection with such litigation and/or arbitration, including any appeal therefrom.
