The Party disclosing the Confidential Information to its Representatives shall ensure that such Representatives adhere to, and comply with, all terms and obligations of confidentiality, use and protection of the Confidential Information as accepted by the Parties under this Agreement.

 

(b) Limitations on Disclosure of Confidential Information. The Parties and their Representatives shall not disclose Confidential Information, or the fact that the Parties entered into this Agreement, unless: (i) the Parties agree in writing that such disclosure is acceptable, (ii) such disclosure is required in connection with the enforcement or protection of a Party’s rights with respect to this Agreement, or (iii) such disclosure is required by law or regulation, governmental or regulatory authority, court order or judicial process; provided, that each Party agrees to give the other Party (to the extent not prohibited by applicable law, regulation, governmental or regulatory authority, court order or judicial process) written notice of any required disclosure and cooperate in obtaining a protective order or similar protection to preserve the confidential nature of the Confidential Information.

9.GOVERNING LAW; DISPUTES

 

(a) Governing Law. This Agreement and the rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule, and shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the law.

 

(b) Arbitrable Claims. Provided no Event of Default shall have occurred, all actions, disputes, claims and controversies under common law, statutory law, rules of professional ethics, or in equity of any type or nature whatsoever, whether arising before or after the date of this Agreement, and directly relating to: (i) this Agreement or any amendments and addenda hereto, or the breach, invalidity or termination hereof; (ii) any previous or subsequent agreement between Holder and Company related to the subject matter hereof to the extent set forth in Section 10(d); (iii) any act or omission committed by Holder or its Representatives with respect to this Agreement, or by any member, employee, agent, or lawyer of Holder with respect to this Agreement, whether or not arising within the scope and course of employment or other contractual representation of Holder (provided that such act arises under a relationship, transaction or dealing between Holder and Company); or (iv) any act or omission committed by Company with respect to this Agreement, or by any employee, agent, partner or lawyer of Company with respect to this Agreement whether or not arising within the scope and course of employment or other contractual representation of Company (provided that such act arises under a relationship, transaction or dealing between Holder and Company) (collectively, the “Disputes”), will be subject to and resolved by binding arbitration under this Section 9(b) and Section 9(c) below provided however, that nothing in this Section 9 shall limit the rights, if any, of Holder to commence or maintain judicial proceedings pursuant to the other Restructure Documents. The Parties agree that the arbitrators have exclusive jurisdiction, to the exclusion of any court (except as specifically provided with regard to prejudgment, provisional, or enforcement proceedings in Section 9(d)), to decide all Disputes. For the avoidance of doubt, Eligible Judicial Proceedings shall not be Disputes.

 

(c) Administrative Body; Situs. Any Dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement, including the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity thereof, or the determination of the scope or applicability of this Agreement to arbitrate, shall be determined by arbitration in New York, New York, before a single arbitrator. The arbitration shall be administered using the arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) current at the time the Dispute is brought, which rules are deemed to be incorporated herein by reference. Each Party shall, upon written request, promptly provide the other Party with copies of all information on which the producing party may rely in support of or in opposition to any claim or defense and a report of any expert whom the producing Party may call as a witness in the arbitration hearing.

 

(d) Eligible Judicial Proceedings; Prejudgment and Provisional Remedies. Either Party may commence judicial proceedings only for the purpose(s) of: (i) enforcement of the arbitration provisions; (ii) obtaining appointment of arbitrator(s); (iii) preserving the status quo of the Parties pending arbitration as contemplated herein; (iv) preventing the disbursement by any Person of disputed funds; (v) preserving and protecting the rights of either Party pending the outcome of the arbitration, (vi) preserving, protecting, or enforcing the rights of either Party if an Event of Default has occurred or (vii) seeking injunctive relief for breach of the confidentiality provisions contained in Section 8 (each of (i) through (vii) above, an “Eligible Judicial Proceeding”). Any such action or remedy will not waive a Party’s right to compel arbitration of any Dispute, and any Party may also file court proceedings to have judgment entered on the arbitration award. In any action for prejudgment or provisional relief, any court in which such relief is sought shall determine the availability of such relief without regard to any defenses that may be asserted by the other Party, and any such defenses shall be referred to the exclusive jurisdiction of the arbitrators under Section 9(b). The Parties further agree that a court shall not defer or delay granting prejudgment or provisional relief while any such arbitration takes place. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

 

13

 

 

(e) Eligible Judicial Proceeding Consent to Jurisdiction and Service. In the case of any Eligible Judicial Proceeding only, each Party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in The City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any Eligible Judicial Proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such Eligible Judicial Proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such Eligible Judicial Proceeding is improper. Each Party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process in respect of any Eligible Judicial Proceeding and consents to process being served in any such Eligible Judicial Proceeding by delivery of a copy thereof to such Party at the address for such notices to it under this Agreement by personal delivery or by overnight courier services that provides evidence of delivery and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law.

 

(f) Attorneys’ Fees. If Company or Holder brings any other action for judicial relief with respect to any Dispute (other than an Eligible Judicial Proceeding), the Party bringing such action will be liable for and immediately pay all of the other Party’s costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred to stay or dismiss such action and remove or refer such Dispute to arbitration. If Company or Holder brings or appeals an action to vacate or modify an arbitration award and such Party does not prevail, such Party will pay all costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, incurred by the other Party in defending such action.

 

(g) Enforcement. Any award rendered under this Section shall not be subject to appeal and shall be enforceable in any and all jurisdictions.

 

(h) Confidentiality of Awards. All arbitration proceedings, including testimony or evidence at hearings, will be kept confidential, although any award or order rendered by the arbitrator(s) pursuant to the terms of this Agreement may be confirmed as a judgment or order in any state or federal or other national court of competent jurisdiction where proceedings are necessary or appropriate to enforce any award or order. This Agreement concerns transactions involving commerce among several state and foreign countries. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prohibit any disclosure required by law.
