Dispute Resolution. Disputes arising under or in connection with this Agreement shall be resolved pursuant to this Section 9.5; provided, however, that in the event a dispute cannot be resolved without an adjudication of the rights or obligations of a Third Party, the dispute procedures set forth in this Section 9.5 shall be inapplicable as to such dispute.

Dispute Resolution. The parties hereto shall attempt to resolve disputes arising out of or relating to this Agreement. Subject to a party's right to seek equitable remedies as provided by section 10 above, any dispute not resolved in writing within 21 days may be referred by either party to mediation involving a mediator (a third party neutral), trained and experienced in the mediation process and mutually agreed to by the parties. The mediator shall ascribe to and follow the commercial rules for the American Arbitration Association then in effect unless the parties mutually agree in writing to waive this provision for mediators in conduct and management of the mediation process. Expenses for the mediation shall be shared equally by the parties unless otherwise agreed during the mediation process. The parties may be accompanied in the mediation process by legal counsel, and/or other persons mutually agreed to by the parties and the mediator. All participants will openly and honestly participate in the mediation. The mediation may be terminated at any time, for any reason by the mediator or by either party. Any resolution reached by the parties during the mediation shall be recorded in writing and agreed to by the parties. Such resolution may be drafted and/or revised by the parties' legal counsel and shall be legally binding on the parties.

Dispute Resolution. Any dispute, controversy or claim between the Company or the Partnership and the Employee or other person arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be settled by arbitration conducted in the City of Jacksonville, Florida, in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association then in effect; provided that this Section 14 shall not apply to, and the Company and the Partnership shall be free to seek, injunctive or other equitable relief with respect to any actual or threatened violation by the Employee of his or her obligations under Section 9 hereof in any court of competent jurisdiction. The arbitration decision or award shall be binding and final upon the parties, and not subject to any appeal or judicial review. The arbitration award shall be in writing and shall set forth the basis thereof. The parties hereto shall abide by all awards rendered in such arbitration proceedings, and all such awards may be enforced and executed upon in any court having jurisdiction over the party against whom enforcement of such award is sought. Each party shall be responsible for its own costs and expenses in any dispute or proceeding regarding the enforcement of this Agreement; provided, however, that in the event of a dispute, controversy or claim following a Change of Control, the Company and the Partnership (or their successor(s)) shall reimburse all of the Employee’s costs and expenses related to the arbitration if the Employee substantially prevails on any material issue, including any costs and expenses of seeking such reimbursement.

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. Any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or the breach, termination or invalidity thereof, shall be resolved as follows:

Dispute Resolution. This Agreement shall be governed by the law of the State of New York, excluding its choice of laws provisions. Any civil action or legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be brought in the Supreme Court of the State of New York in New York County or the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York located in New York County. Each party consents to the jurisdiction of such courts in any such civil action or legal proceeding and waives any objection to the laying of venue of any such civil action or legal proceeding in such courts.

Any dispute arising from the interpretation and performance of any provision under this Agreement shall be amicably settled through consultations between the Parties. In the event that the Parties are unable to reach an agreement within 30 days from the occurrence of the dispute, either Party may submit such dispute to China International Economic and Trade Arbitration Commission for arbitration in accordance with the arbitration rules thereof then in effect. The place of arbitration shall be in Beijing, and the language to be used in arbitration shall be Chinese. The award of arbitration shall be final and equally binding on the Parties of this Agreement.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION. The parties shall make all reasonable efforts to resolve any dispute concerning this Agreement, its construction, or its actual or alleged breach, by face-to-face negotiations between senior executives. Should such negotiation fail to resolve the matter, either party may bring judicial proceedings to resolve the matter in any state or federal court of competent jurisdiction sitting in the State of Delaware. By executing and delivering this Agreement, each party, for itself and in respect of its property, irrevocably consents and submits to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of such courts in any such proceeding and otherwise waives any objection or defense, including any objection or defense based on forum non conveniens or improper venue, which it may now or hereafter have to the bringing of any such proceedings in such courts. Each party further agrees that service of process of notice in any such proceeding shall be effective if in writing and sent in the manners provided in Paragraph 15 of this Agreement, or in any other manner permitted by Delaware law.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, any and all other disputes, controversies or questions arising under, out of, or relating to this Agreement (or the breach thereof), or, the Executive’s employment with DeVry Group or termination thereof, other than those disputes relating to Executive’s alleged violations of Sections 10 (Confidential Information), 11 (return of property), 12 (intellectual property) and 13 (covenants of noncompete and nonsolicitation) of this Agreement, shall be referred for binding arbitration in [[Address B:Address]] to a neutral arbitrator (who is licensed to practice law in any State within the United States of America) selected by the Executive and DeVry Group and this shall be the exclusive and sole means for resolving such dispute. Such arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the National Rules for Resolution of Employment Disputes of the American Arbitration Association. The arbitrator shall have the discretion to award reasonable attorneys' fees, costs and expenses to the prevailing party. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.
