A party must, in the first instance, provide written notice of any Disputes to the other parties subject to such Dispute, which notice must provide a reasonably detailed description of the matters subject to the Dispute. The parties involved in such Dispute shall seek to resolve the Dispute on an amicable basis within ten (10) Business Days of the notice of such Dispute being received by such other parties subject to such Dispute; the “Resolution Period”); provided, that if any Dispute would reasonably be expected to have become moot or otherwise irrelevant if not decided within sixty (60) days after the occurrence of such Dispute, then there shall be no Resolution Period with respect to such Dispute. Any Dispute that is not resolved during the Resolution Period may immediately be referred to and finally resolved by arbitration pursuant to the then-existing Expedited Procedures of the Commercial Arbitration Rules (the “AAA Procedures”) of the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”).

Each party shall submit a proposal for resolution of the Dispute to the arbitrator within twenty (20) days after confirmation of the appointment of the arbitrator. The arbitrator shall have the power to order any party to do, or to refrain from doing, anything consistent with this Agreement, the Ancillary Documents and applicable Law, including to perform its contractual obligation(s); provided, that the arbitrator shall be limited to ordering pursuant to the foregoing power (and, for the avoidance of doubt, shall order) the relevant party (or parties, as applicable) to comply with only one or the other of the proposals. The arbitrator’s award shall be in writing and shall include a reasonable explanation of the arbitrator’s reason(s) for selecting one or the other proposal. The seat of arbitration shall be in New York County, State of New York. The language of the arbitration shall be English.

 

9.4仲裁。因本协议或本协议所设想的交易而产生的、与之相关的或与之有关的任何及所有争议、纠纷和索赔（不包括申请临时禁止令、初步禁止令、永久禁止令或其他公平救济或申请执行本第9.4节规定的决议）（“争议”）应受本第9.4节管辖。一方必须在第一时间将任何争议书面通知给受该争议影响的其他各方，该通知必须对受争议影响的事项进行合理的详细描述。该争议所涉各方应在该争议所涉其他各方收到该争议通知后的十（10）个工作日内寻求友好解决该争议；“解决期”）；但如果任何争议在该争议发生后六十（60）天内不作决定，则合理地预期该争议将变得无意义或不相关，则该争议将没有解决期。任何在解决期内未得到解决的争议，可立即根据当时存在的美国仲裁协会（“AAA”）商业仲裁规则的快速程序（“AAA程序”）提交并最终通过仲裁解决。该争议所涉及的任何一方可以将争议提交给美国仲裁协会，以便在解决期限之后开始程序。如果AAA程序和本协议有冲突，应以本协议的条款为 准。仲裁应在争议提交给AAA后迅速（但在任何情况下在五（5）个工作日内）由AAA提名的一名仲裁员进行，并为争议的每一方合理地接受，该仲裁员应是一名商业律师，在收购协议的争议方面具有丰富的仲裁经验。仲裁员应接受其任命，并在其被提名和被争议各方接受后迅速开始仲裁程序（但无论如何应在五（5）个营业日内）。仲裁程序应精简、高效。仲裁员应根据纽约州的实体法裁决争议。时间是关键。各方应在确认仲裁员任命后二十（20）天内向仲裁员提交解决争议的建议。仲裁员有权命令任何一方做或不做符合本协议、附属文件和适用法律的任何事情，包括履行其合同义务；但仲裁员应仅限于根据上述权力命令（为避免疑问，应命令）相关方（或各方，如适用）只遵守其中一个或另一个建议。仲裁员的裁决应是书面的，并应包括对仲裁员选择一种或另一种建议的理由的合理解释。仲裁地点应在纽约州的纽约县。仲裁的语言为英语。

Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties will substitute for any invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision a suitable and equitable provision that carries out, so far as may be valid, legal and enforceable, the intent and purpose of such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision.

 

9.8 可分割性。如果本协议中的任何条款在某一司法管辖区被认定为无效、非法或无法执行，那么就所涉及的司法管辖区而言，该条款应被修改或删除，但以使其有效、合法和可执行为限，本协议其余条款的有效性、合法性和可执行性不得以任何方式受到影响或损害，该条款的有效性、合法性或可执行性在任何其他司法管辖区不得受到影响。一旦确定任何条款或其他规定是无效的、非法的或无法执行的，双方将以适当和公平的规定来替代任何无效的、非法的或无法执行的规定，只要是有效的、合法的和可执行的，就可以实现该无效的、非法的或无法执行的规定的意图和目的。
