prejudice to any claims which one party may have against the other. In the event of such termination, the Company shall be obligated to reimburse the Consultant for services actually performed by

10.    Miscellaneous. 

(a)    No failure on the part of either party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right or remedy hereunder shall

(b)    This Agreement shall be deemed to be a contract made under the law of the State of California and for all purposes
it, plus any related or supplemental documents and notices shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of such State. 

(c)    This Agreement may not be and shall not be deemed or construed to have been modified, amended, rescinded, canceled
or waived in whole or in part, except by written instruments signed by the parties hereto.

procedures of the California Arbitration Act (Cal. Code Civ. Proc. sec. 1280 et seq.). 
 The claims to be arbitrated under this Agreement
include, but are not limited to claims for compensation, breach of contract (express or implied), violation of public policy, wrongful termination, wrongful demotion, tort claims, fraud, misrepresentation, unlawful discrimination, harassment,
retaliation, and violation of any federal, state, or other government law, statute, regulation, or ordinance, including claims under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Age Discrimination in Employment
Act, the California Fair Employment and Housing Act and the California Labor Code. 
 Any dispute, controversy or claim covered by or
arising out of this Agreement shall be resolved through binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in accordance with the AAA Employment Arbitration Rules and Mediation Procedures.

CONSULTING AGREEMENT 
  

 These Rules are available at: http://www.adr.org/. There shall be one arbitrator as
mutually agreed by the parties. If the parties are unable to agree on an arbitrator, the arbitrator shall be chosen in accordance with the AAA Rules. Each party shall have the right to conduct reasonable discovery, as determined by the arbitrator.
This agreement to arbitrate does not apply to disputes or claims related to workers’ compensation benefits, disputes or claims related to unemployment insurance benefits, unfair labor practice charges under the National Labor Relations Act, or
disputes or claims that are expressly excluded from arbitration by statute or are expressly required to be arbitrated under a different procedure pursuant to an employee benefit plan. This agreement to arbitrate does not prevent Consultant from
filing a charge or complaint with the California Department of Fair Employment and Housing, or the U.S. Equal Opportunity Commission, or any other similar government agency. It also does not prevent Consultant from participating in any investigation
or proceeding conducted by an agency. However, if one of these agencies issues a right to sue notice, binding arbitration under this agreement will be your sole remedy. 

To the extent permitted by law without impairing the enforceability of this arbitration agreement, Consultant and Company agree that each
shall only submit their own, individual claims in arbitration and will not seek to represent the interests of any other person and that each will not assert class or representative claims against the other in arbitration. To the extent permitted by
law without impairing the enforceability of this arbitration agreement, Consultant and Company further agree that class action and representative action procedures shall not be asserted or permitted in arbitration. Claims brought by Consultant or by
Company may not be joined or consolidated in the arbitration with claims brought by or against any other employees, unless agreed to in writing by all parties. The arbitrator shall have all powers conferred by law and a judgment may be entered on
the award by a court of law having jurisdiction. The arbitrator shall render a written arbitration award that contains the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based. 

Following the issuance of the arbitrator’s decision, either party may petition a court to confirm, enforce, correct or vacate the
arbitrator’s opinion and award under the Federal Arbitration Act, or applicable state law. The parties shall share equally the costs of the arbitrator and the arbitration forum unless a different fee payment arrangement is required by
applicable law to preserve the enforceability of this arbitration provision. The Company will pay the costs of the arbitrator and the arbitration forum if required by applicable law to preserve the enforceability of this arbitration provision. 

Consultant understands that by signing this Agreement, Consultant is giving up his right to a trial in a court of law and the right to a
trial by jury. Except as otherwise required by law, the parties

shall each pay the fees of their own attorneys and the expenses of their own witnesses. 

If one or more provisions of this Agreement are held to be unenforceable under applicable law, Consultant agrees to renegotiate with the
Company such provision in good faith. In the event that Consultant and the Company cannot reach a mutually agreeable and enforceable replacement for such provision, then (i) such provision shall be excluded from this Agreement, (ii) the
balance of the agreement shall be interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and (iii) the balance of the agreement shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms.
