This Arbitration Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of Florida and the Federal Arbitration Act (FAA).
17.1. Good Faith Negotiation Prior to Arbitration
The Parties agree that before initiating arbitration or mediation, they will make a serious, good-faith effort to resolve any disputes, claims, or controversies ("Disputes") through informal negotiations. The Parties must engage in reasonable and decent communication to avoid unnecessary arbitration, mediation or court proceedings. If after a period of thirty (30) days from the commencement of good faith negotiations, the Parties are unable to resolve the dispute, either party may initiate arbitration in accordance with this Arbitration Agreement.
Comment: Before starting formal arbitration or mediation, the Parties agree to make a serious effort to resolve disputes through informal talks. If they can’t settle the issue within 30 days of starting negotiations, they can proceed to arbitration.
17.2. Binding Arbitration

Arbitration will take place in the State of Florida unless both Parties mutually agree to a different location.
Comment: If the dispute isn’t resolved through negotiation, the Parties agree that arbitration in Florida will be the only way to settle it. The arbitration must occur in Florida unless both Parties agree on a different location.

No arbitration award shall have any preclusive effect on issues or claims involving parties not named in the arbitration.
Comment: The arbitrator’s decision must be made within the timeframe set by the arbitration rules and will include the reasons for the decision. The arbitrator can award monetary damages and other relief available under the law, but only on an individual basis. The decision doesn’t affect claims involving parties not named in the arbitration.
17.8. Arbitration Costs and Fees
The Parties agree to equally share the administrative costs and arbitrator fees associated with the arbitration, unless otherwise required by applicable law. However, if a party brings a frivolous claim or acts in bad faith, the arbitrator shall have the authority to award the other party attorneys' fees and costs incurred as a result of such actions. To ensure that arbitration is accessible, the Parties further agree that arbitration-related costs shall be kept to a reasonable minimum to avoid unnecessary financial burdens.

The arbitrator shall have discretion to limit discovery, including depositions and document production, to avoid unnecessary cost and delay. Dispositive motions may be permitted if they are likely to resolve the Dispute efficiently.
Comment: Discovery (like document requests) in arbitration will be limited to what is necessary to resolve the dispute. The arbitrator can limit discovery to avoid unnecessary costs and delays.
