Any controversy, claim or dispute between the parties relating to the Executive’s employment or termination of employment, whether or not the controversy, claim or dispute arises under this Agreement, shall be resolved by arbitration in accordance with the Employment Arbitration Rules and Mediation Procedures (“ Rules ”) of the American Arbitration Association through a single arbitrator in Los Angeles County, California selected in accordance with the Rules (provided, however, that any controversy or claim arising under Paragraphs 8 or 9 will be resolved, at the election of the Employer, either (i) under this Paragraph 18 or (ii) in accordance with Paragraph 19). The foregoing notwithstanding, claims for workers’ compensation, unemployment compensation benefits or any other claims that, as a matter of law, the parties cannot agree to arbitrate shall not be covered by this Paragraph 18. A copy of the Rules will be provided to the Executive upon his or her written request to the Employer. The decision of the arbitrator shall be rendered within thirty (30) days of the close of the arbitration hearing and shall include written findings of fact and conclusions of law reflecting the appropriate substantive law. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof in the State of California. In reaching his or her decision, the arbitrator shall have no authority (a) to change or modify any provision of this Agreement, (b) to base any part of his or her decision on public policy arguments or the common law principle of constructive termination, or (c) to award punitive damages or any other damages not measured by the prevailing party’s actual damages and may not make any ruling, finding or award that does not conform to this Agreement. The American Arbitration Association rules regarding discovery shall apply to arbitration under this Paragraph 18. Each party shall bear all of his or its own legal fees, costs and expenses of arbitration; provided, however, that the Employer shall be responsible for the costs of the arbitrator.
