Section 18

INCLUDING FRAUD, MISREPRESENTATION, OR ANY
OTHER LEGAL THEORY, RELATED DIRECTLY OR

LAW, GOVERNS THE QUESTION OF WHETHER A CLAIM IS
SUBJECT TO ARBITRATION.
A single arbitrator engaged in the practice of law will
conduct the arbitration under the rules of the American
Arbitration Association. The arbitrator will be selected in
accordance with AAA procedures from a list of qualified
people maintained by the AAA. All expedited procedures
prescribed by the AAA rules will apply, and each party will
bear their own costs and attorney’s fees.
No discovery will be permitted, except that the parties will
exchange, thirty days prior to the hearing on their dispute,
all documents to be submitted to the arbitrator, including
any reports or summaries, and a list of the names and
addresses of those persons to be called to testify. Following

The arbitrator will have authority only to award
