Enforcement Expenses contract clause examples

Enforcement. Any claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Executive’s employment with the Company or the termination thereof, other than an action for injunctive relief as provided below, shall be resolved by confidential, final and binding arbitration conducted by Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services (“JAMS”) to be held in Orange County, California, under the then-existing JAMS rules, rather than by litigation in court, trial by jury, administrative proceeding, or in any other forum. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The Company shall promptly pay all costs and expenses, including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by the Executive or his beneficiaries in resolving any claim hereunder in which the Executive or his beneficiaries shall prevail. In all other cases the parties shall bear their own costs and expenses, except that the Executive shall pay all costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorney’s fees incurred by the Company in resolving such claim if the arbitrator(s) determine such claim to have been brought by the Executive # in bad faith or # without any reasonable basis. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties agree that any breach of [Subsection (a) or (b)])] above is likely to cause irreparable injury to the Company and that damages for any breach of [Subsections (a), (b) or (g)])])] are difficult to calculate. Therefore, upon breach of [Subsections (a), (b) or (g)])])] hereof, the Company shall, at its election, be entitled to injunctive and other equitable relief from a court or such other relief or remedies, including damages, to which it may be entitled, and shall not be required to submit the matter to arbitration.

Arbitration. Any and all disputes, claims, or causes of action arising from or relating to the enforcement, breach, performance or interpretation of this Agreement, Executive’s employment, or the termination of Executive’s employment, shall be resolved to the fullest extent permitted by law by final, binding and confidential arbitration in San Mateo County, California through Judicial Arbitration & Mediation Services/Endispute (“JAMS”) in conformity with the then-existing JAMS employment arbitration rules and California law.

Judgment on the award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.
