Rules from the panels of arbitrators maintained by the AAA, and such arbitrator shall be neutral, impartial, independent of the parties and others having any known interest in the outcome, shall abide by the ABA and AAA Code of Ethics for neutral

Company, then Employee shall pay the applicable filing fee, up to the amount Employee would be required to pay to file the same claims(s) in a New York state or federal court. The expenses of the arbitrator (including compensation of the arbitrator)
shall be borne equally by the parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any matter of dispute raised by a party or any defense or objection thereto was unreasonable or made in bad faith, the arbitrator may assess, as part of the arbitration award,

forth herein, Employee and the Company agree, for themselves and for their representatives, successors, and assigns, that, subject to the proviso below, any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, its enforcement or
interpretation, or because of an alleged breach, default, or misrepresentation in connection with any of its provisions, or arising out of or relating in any way to Employee’s employment with the Company or termination thereof, shall be settled
by final and binding arbitration in New York County, New York (or such other place as may be agreed to by the parties) before a single arbitrator, selected in accordance with the National Rules for the Resolution of Employment Disputes of the
American Arbitration Association (“<B>AAA</B>”), in accordance with the procedures required under New York law; provided, however, that in the event of a claimed violation of this Agreement, the Company may seek injunctive relief in order
to prevent irreparable harm or preserve the status quo. Employee and the Company further agree that claims by Employee or by the Company may only be brought in a party’s individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any
purported class or representative proceeding. In that regard, Employee specifically agrees not to file, initiate directly or indirectly, join, or participate in any class of collective action. If a class or collective action is filed purporting to
include Employee, then Employee shall take all steps necessary to refrain from opting in or to <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">opt-out</FONT> or otherwise exclude Employee from the action, as appropriate. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:13%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">(b) To the extent not inconsistent with law, the following will govern any arbitration hereunder (which shall take precedence over any
contrary rule of the AAA): </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:18%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">(i) Arbitration may be commenced at any time after a failure to resolve the dispute under Section 11.10
above. The arbitrator shall be selected by the joint agreement of the parties, but if the parties do not so agree within thirty (30) business days after the date of the notice referred to above, the selection shall be made pursuant to the
Rules from the panels of arbitrators maintained by the AAA, and such arbitrator shall be neutral, impartial, independent of the parties and others having any known interest in the outcome, shall abide by the ABA and AAA Code of Ethics for neutral
arbitrators and shall have no ex parte communications about the dispute with either party. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:18%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">(ii) Except as provided in this Agreement or
as required by law, each party shall pay its own expenses incurred in connection with arbitration (including, without limitation, filing fees, administrative costs and attorneys’ fees). If Employee seeks to arbitrate a claim against the
Company, then Employee shall pay the applicable filing fee, up to the amount Employee would be required to pay to file the same claims(s) in a New York state or federal court. The expenses of the arbitrator (including compensation of the arbitrator)
shall be borne equally by the parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any matter of dispute raised by a party or any defense or objection thereto was unreasonable or made in bad faith, the arbitrator may assess, as part of the arbitration award,
all or any part of the arbitration expenses of the other party, and the arbitration fees against the party raising such unreasonable matter of dispute or defense or objection thereto. </P>

award in accordance with applicable New York law. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:18%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">(ix) EMPLOYEE AND THE COMPANY UNDERSTAND THAT, ABSENT THIS AGREEMENT, THEY WOULD HAVE
