In the event that a dispute arises about the validity, interpretation, effect or alleged violations of this Agreement, or about any matter that may arise between me and the Company in the future, except as set forth in Paragraph 6, the parties agree to submit the dispute to final and binding arbitration in Michigan before an experienced employment arbitrator licensed to practice law in Michigan and selected in accordance with the American Arbitration Association rules applicable to employment disputes. The arbitrator may not modify or change this Agreement in any way. I agree to pay my attorney’s fees and the expenses for any witnesses that support my position. I understand that the Company will pay all expenses of the arbitration, including required travel and other expenses of the arbitrator, AAA representatives, and any witness and the costs relating to any proof produced at the direction of the arbitrator, unless the arbitrator directs otherwise in the award as provided for in the Administrative Fee Schedule. Arbitration in this manner shall be the exclusive remedy for any arbitrable dispute. The arbitrator’s decision or award shall be fully enforceable and subject to an entry of judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction.

You and the Company each agree that any controversy, claim, or dispute arising out of or relating to these Standard Terms and Conditions or arising out of or relating to your employment relationship with the Company or any of its affiliates, the termination of such relationship, or your conduct following the termination of such relationship, shall be resolved by binding arbitration before a neutral arbitrator on an individual basis only, and not in any form of class, collective, or private attorney general representative proceeding. By way of example only, claims subject to this agreement to arbitrate include claims litigated under federal, state and local statutory or common law, such as the Family Medical Leave Act, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, Older Workers Benefit Protection Act of 1990, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Civil Rights Act of 1990, the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Federal Employers Liability Act, the Federal Railway Safety Act, the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act, the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act, the law of contract and the law of tort. You and the Company each agree that such claims may be brought in an appropriate administrative forum, but if you or the Company seek a judicial forum to resolve the matter, this agreement for binding arbitration will become immediately effective, and you and the Company each hereby knowingly and voluntarily waive any right to have any such dispute tried and adjudicated by a judge or jury.

Dispute Resolution. In the event of any dispute under this Facility IP License, the Parties shall proceed in accordance with the dispute resolution process set forth in the Services Agreement, mutatis mutandis.

The following procedure will be adhered to in all disputes arising under this Agreement which the Parties cannot resolve informally through their Relationship Managers. The aggrieved Party shall notify the other Party in writing of the nature of the dispute with as much detail as possible about the deficient performance of the other Party. The Relationship Managers shall meet (in person or by telephone) within seven (7) calendar days (or other mutually agreed upon date) after the date of the written notification to reach an agreement about the nature of the deficiency and the corrective action to be taken by the respective Parties. If the Relationship Managers do not meet or are unable to agree on corrective action, senior managers of the Parties having authority to resolve the dispute without the further consent of any other person (“Management”) shall meet or otherwise act to facilitate an agreement within fourteen (14) calendar days (or other mutually agreed upon date) of the date of the written notification. If Management do not meet or cannot resolve the dispute or agree upon a written plan of corrective action to do so within seven (7) calendar days (or other mutually agreed upon date) after their initial meeting or other action, or if the agreed-upon completion dates in the written plan of corrective action are exceeded, either Party may request mediation and/or arbitration as provided for in this Agreement. Except as otherwise specifically provided, neither Party shall initiate arbitration, mediation or litigation unless and until this dispute resolution procedure has been substantially compiled with or waived. Failure of a Party to fulfill its obligations in this Section, including failure to meet timely upon the other Party’s notice, shall be deemed such a waiver.

Dispute Resolution. Except for disputes resolved by the procedures set forth in [Sections 2.4.3 or 6.13], if a dispute arises between the Parties in connection with or relating to this Agreement or any document or instrument delivered in connection herewith (a “Dispute”), it shall be resolved pursuant to this Section 13.8.

Dispute Resolution. In the event that there is a dispute concerning the terms of this Agreement or involving any of the services provided pursuant to this Agreement, the Parties hereby agree to submit such dispute to confidential binding arbitration. The Parties shall choose a single arbitrator to arbitrate the dispute who shall conduct the proceedings at a location agreed to by both Parties pursuant to the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), as applicable, then in effect or any other procedure mutually agreed to. Each party shall bear its own attorney fees and costs in connection with the arbitration, including the costs of the AAA and the arbitrator, which shall be equally divided. In the event that this arbitration provision is deemed to be unenforceable, such unenforceability shall have no effecton any other provision of this Agreement, and the Parties in such event shall be free to pursue any remedies otherwiseavailable.

Audit Dispute. In the event of a dispute with respect to any audit under Section 6.12, and [[Organization A:Organization]] shall work in good faith to resolve the disagreement. If the Parties are unable to reach a mutually acceptable resolution of any such dispute within […​…], the dispute shall be submitted for resolution to a certified public accounting firm jointly selected by each Party’s certified public accountants or to such other Person as the Parties shall mutually agree (the “Audit Arbitrator”). The decision of the Audit Arbitrator shall be final and the costs of such arbitration as well as the initial audit shall be borne between the Parties in such manner as the Audit Arbitrator shall determine. For the purposes of this Section 6.13, the Audit Arbitrator shall be allowed to have access to the books and records maintained pursuant to Section 6.11, in accordance with Section 6.12. Not later than […​…] after such decision and in accordance with such decision, the audited Party shall pay the additional amounts or the auditing Party shall reimburse the excess payments, as applicable.

If Seller is a permanent resident of the U.S., or a corporation or partnership existing under the laws of the U.S., Buyer and Seller shall attempt amicably to resolve any controversy, dispute or difference arising out of this Order, failing which either party may initiate litigation. Litigation may be brought only in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York or, if such court lacks subject matter jurisdiction, in the Supreme Court of the State of New York in and for New York County. The parties submit to the jurisdiction of said courts and waive any defense of forum non conveniens.

Dispute Resolution. If either Party believes that the other Party has breached this Agreement, or in the event of any dispute hereunder including, but not limited to, any dispute over the interpretation of the terms and conditions hereof, the following procedures shall be invoked:

Decision-Making. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the JMC is intended to act as a discussion forum, and not a decision-making body, and that the JMC’s responsibilities are not subject to the oversight of, or escalation to, the JSC or any other committee in the event of any dispute or disagreement between the Parties. For clarity, # all matters regarding the Manufacturing of ACTR T-cells will be decided by Unum, and # all matters regarding the Manufacturing of SGI Antibodies will be decided by SGI; and, in each case for clauses (i) or (ii), without escalation to the Executive Officers or arbitration under Article 17.
