Mediation and Arbitration This Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of California. The parties acknowledge that this Agreement evidences a transaction involving interstate commerce. The United States Arbitration Act shall govern the interpretation, enforcement, and proceedings pursuant to the arbitration clause in this Agreement, and claims of copyright, trademark and patent infringement shall be excluded from arbitration. Consistent with the expedited nature of arbitration, each party will, upon the written request of the other party, promptly provide the other with copies of documents relevant to the issues raised by any claim or counterclaim on which the producing party may rely in support of or in opposition to any claim or defense. Any dispute regarding discovery, or the relevance or scope thereof, shall be determined by the arbitrator(s), which determination shall be conclusive. All discovery shall be completed within thirty (30) days following the appointment of the arbitrator(s). At the request of a party, the arbitrator(s) shall have the discretion to order examination by deposition of witnesses to the extent the arbitrator deems such additional discovery relevant and appropriate. Depositions shall be limited to a maximum of three per party and shall be held within thirty (30) days of the making of a request. Additional depositions may be scheduled only with the permission of the arbitrator(s), and for good cause shown. Each deposition shall be limited to a maximum of one (1) hour duration. All objections are reserved for the arbitration hearing except for objections based on privilege and proprietary or confidential information. The arbitrator(s) shall not award consequential damages in any arbitration initiated under this section, nor shall the arbitrator(s) be empowered to issue an award of exemplary or punitive damages. The arbitrator(s) may determine how the costs and expenses of the arbitration shall be allocated between the parties, but they shall not award attorneys' fees. The award shall be in writing, shall be signed by a majority of the arbitrators, and shall include a statement regarding the reasons for the disposition of any claim. Except as may be required by law, neither a party nor an arbitrator may disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration hereunder without the prior written consent of both parties. |
