If the parties are unable to resolve a dispute through informal negotiations, the dispute will be finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration. The arbitration shall be commenced and conducted under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA").
Arbitration Location and Procedure
The arbitration shall take place in New York, unless both parties agree to a different location or to conduct the arbitration remotely via video conference. The arbitrator's decision shall be final and binding, and judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.
Cost Allocation
Each party shall bear its own costs and attorneys' fees. The arbitration fees shall be allocated as follows:

- For claims over $10,000, arbitration fees shall be split equally between the parties, unless the arbitrator determines otherwise

Small Claims Court Exception
Notwithstanding the above, either party may bring an individual action in small claims court for disputes within the court's jurisdictional limits.
