The Arbitrator may grant any legal or equitable remedy or relief that the arbitrator deems just and equitable and may make such interlocutory orders and prescribe such interim measures to apply as he deems appropriate, pending a final resolution by award of outstanding questions or issues. The expenses of the arbitration, including the arbitrator’s fees, expert witness fees, and attorneys’ fees may be awarded to the prevailing party in the discretion of the arbitrator. Unless and until the arbitrator decides that one party is to pay for all (or a disproportionate share) of such expenses, both parties shall share equally in the payment of the arbitrator’s fees as and when billed by the arbitrator. Should any party refuse to pay its portion of such expenses, the other party may do so, and costs so incurred must be addressed in the arbitral award to be issued by the arbitrator. ni Page 5 of 8
