arbitrator. The responding party shall have ten (10) business days in

shall serve as the arbitrator. If the responding party submits a written
answer rejecting the proposed arbitrator then, unless the parties agree
on an arbitrator, on the request of either party, the American Arbitration
Association shall select an arbitrator. The arbitration shall take place

Any controversy or claim relating to this Agreement (whether contract,
tort, or both), or the breach of this Agreement shall be arbitrated by
and in accordance with the then existing commercial arbitration rules
of the American Arbitration Association at its offices in Orange County,
California. Each party shall be responsible for its own costs of arbitration.
At the conclusion of arbitration, the arbitrator shall award the prevailing
party its expenses and fees of arbitration, including reasonable attorney
fees and witness fees, in such proportion as the arbitrator decides.
To the maximum extent possible, the parties desire that any arbitration
under this Agreement be consolidated with any arbitration proceeding
in which related issues are being resolved (all to be consolidated in
Orange County, California). The parties shall take all action necessary
or desirable to achieve consolidation. The parties agree that an arbitrator
shall be deemed qualified to serve hereunder only if the arbitrator is
a retired judge who served as a state or federal judge for more than
ten (10) years and has relevant experience in business law matters. Discovery
shall be available under AAA's rules. Any controversy hereunder involving
a claim of $5,000 or less, exclusive of costs or attorneys fees, shall
