If the parties fail to reach agreement within thirty (30) days of service of the demand for arbitration, the arbitrator will be chosen by mutual agreement of two arbitrators, one appointed by each party. The two arbitrators' choice of arbitrator shall be final and binding on the parties. The Two arbitrators will use their best efforts to appoint an arbitrator within ten (10) days of being informed of the parties' request for an appointment. E. The up-front costs of the arbitration and arbitrator fees shall be borne by the parties equally. Costs and fees so paid will be subject to reallocation by the arbitrator in the award as provided for in this agreement. If any party fails or refuses to pay its share of the cost of arbitration the other party may, at its option, (1) elect to pay the entire cost of the arbitration, in which case the obligation of the nonpaying party to otherwise participate in the arbitration is not excused; or (2) immediately proceed to litigation. Regardless of which party ultimately prevails, the court, if litigation is elected, or the arbitrator, if arbitration is elected, will award liquidated damages in the amount of ten thousand dollars ($10,000.00) to the party who paid the costs of the arbitration. F. At the request of a party, the arbitrator may in his or her discretion order reasonable discovery on a showing of good cause. G. The parties desire a speedy resolution of any disputes that may arise. To that end, the arbitrator will, on his or her appointment, consult with the parties to discuss a reasonable hearing and, if appropriate, discovery schedule. H. After the arbitrator is selected, any party may apply to the arbitrator for a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction, or any other provisional or interim relief available under California law, if in that party's sole judgment the action is necessary to avoid irreparable damage or to preserve the status quo. The arbitrator has the power to issue interim relief to the same extent as a California court in a civil action. The parties agree that any interim relief ordered by the arbitrator may be confirmed by the court in the same manner of confirmation of final awards under the Code of Civil Procedure. I. Unless otherwise agreed by the parties, the arbitration hearings will be conducted in Orange County, California. J. In the event of a dispute over whether particular issues are arbitrable under this agreement, the arbitrator, and not the court, shall determine whether or not the arbitrator has jurisdiction over such issues, and the arbitrator's decision as to the arbitrator's jurisdiction over issues will be final and binding. K. This agreement to arbitrate is intended to be binding on and to inure to the benefit of the parties to this agreement, their principals, successors, assigns, affiliates, partners, employees, parent or subsidiary entities, and to any other parties whose claims or defenses may arise out of or relate to this agreement. L. The arbitration award shall be in writing, signed by the arbitrator and shall be in the form of a written, reasoned opinion setting forth the arbitrator's findings of fact and conclusions of law. M. In any arbitration arising out of this agreement, the prevailing party is entitled to reasonable attorney fees. N. Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. O. If a party fails or refuses to appear or participate in the arbitration, or in any portion of the arbitration, after having been given notice and opportunity to participate as provided in this agreement, the arbitration will proceed and the arbitrator may render a final award on the basis of the evidence presented by the participating party. An award rendered under such circumstances is valid and enforceable as if all parties had participated fully. 21. MISCELLANEOUS.
