 This Note is a Global Note in respect of a duly authorized issue of 3.650%
Senior Notes due 2026 (the “NOTES OF THIS SERIES”, which term includes any Global Notes representing such Notes) of the Company issued and to be issued under an Indenture dated as of December 1, 2001 between the Company and The Bank
of New York (The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., successor), as trustee (herein called the “TRUSTEE”, which term includes any successor Trustee under the Indenture) and indentures supplemental thereto (collectively, the
“INDENTURE”). Under the Indenture, one or more series of notes may be issued and, as used herein, the term “Notes” refers to the Notes of this Series and any other outstanding series of Notes. Reference is hereby made to the
Indenture for a more complete statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Noteholders and of the terms upon which the Notes are and are to be authenticated and
delivered. This Note has been issued in respect of the series designated on the first page hereof, issued in the initial aggregate principal amount of $350,000,000. 

Each Note of this Series shall be dated and issued as of the date of its authentication by the Trustee and shall bear an Original Issue Date.
Each Note of this Series issued upon transfer, exchange or substitution of such Note shall bear the Original Issue Date of such transferred, exchanged or substituted Note, as the case may be. 

Interest on this Note will accrue from and including the Original Issue Date specified above to, but excluding February 15, 2016, and
thereafter, from and including each Interest Payment Date to, but excluding, the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, the Maturity Date or any redemption date, as the case may be. 

All or a portion of the Notes of this Series may be redeemed at the option of the Company at any time or from time to time. The
redemption price for the Notes of this Series to be redeemed on any redemption date prior to November 15, 2025 (three months prior to the Maturity Date) will be equal to the greater of the following amounts: (a) 100% of the principal
amount of the Notes of this Series being redeemed on the redemption date; or (b) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes of this Series being redeemed on that redemption
date that would be payable if such Notes matured on November 15, 2025 (not including any portion of any payments of interest accrued to the redemption date) discounted to the redemption date on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year
consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Adjusted Treasury Rate (as defined below) plus 25 basis points, as determined by the Reference Treasury Dealer (as defined below), plus, in each 

  
 2 

 
case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date. The redemption price for the Notes of this Series to be redeemed on any redemption date on or after November 15, 2025 (three
months prior to the Maturity Date) will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes of this Series being redeemed on the redemption date plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
installments of interest on Notes of this Series that are due and payable on Interest Payment Dates falling on or prior to a redemption date will be payable on the Interest Payment Date to the Holder of this Note as of the close of business on
the relevant Regular Record Date. 
 With respect to a redemption occurring prior to November 15, 2025, the Company shall give the
Trustee written notice of the redemption price promptly after the calculation thereof and the Trustee shall not be responsible for such calculation. 

The Company shall mail notice of any redemption at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder of
the Notes of this Series to be redeemed, and, if less than all Notes of this Series are to be redeemed, the particular Notes of this Series to be redeemed will be selected by the Trustee in such manner as it shall deem appropriate and fair;
provided, that as long as the Notes of this Series are represented by global certificates, beneficial interests in such global certificates will be selected for redemption by The Depository Trust Company in accordance with its standard procedures
therefor. Unless the Company defaults in payment of the redemption price, on and after the redemption date, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes of this Series or portions thereof called for redemption. 

Any notice of redemption at the Company’s option may state that such redemption will be conditional upon receipt by the Trustee, on or
prior to the redemption date, of money sufficient to pay the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on, the Notes of this Series or portions thereof called for redemption, and that if such money has not been so received, such notice will be
of no force and effect and the Company will not be required to redeem such Notes or portions thereof. 
 “ADJUSTED TREASURY RATE”
means, with respect to any redemption date, the rate per annum equal to the semiannual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal
amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such redemption date. 
 “COMPARABLE TREASURY ISSUE” means the United States
Treasury security selected by the Reference Treasury Dealer as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Notes of this Series to be redeemed (assuming, for this purpose, that the Notes matured on November 15, 2025) that
would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of such Notes of this Series. 

“COMPARABLE TREASURY PRICE” means, with respect to any redemption date, (A) the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer
Quotations for such redemption date, after excluding the highest and lowest of such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (B) if the Company obtains fewer than four such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such
quotations, or (C) if only one Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation is received, such quotation. 

  
 3 

 “REFERENCE TREASURY DEALER” means (A) Barclays Capital Inc., J.P. Morgan
Securities LLC, Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated and Mizuho Securities USA Inc. or, in each case, an affiliate thereof, which are primary U.S. Government securities dealers in the United States (each, a “Primary
Treasury Dealer”), and their respective successors; provided, however, that if any of the foregoing shall cease to be a Primary Treasury Dealer, the Company will substitute therefor another Primary Treasury Dealer; and (B) any other
Primary Treasury Dealer(s) selected by the Company. 
 “REFERENCE TREASURY DEALER QUOTATIONS” means, with respect to each
Reference Treasury Dealer and any redemption date, the average, as determined by the Company, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the
Company by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the third Business Day preceding such redemption date. 

Interest payments for this Note shall be computed and paid on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months (and for any
partial periods shall be calculated on the basis of the number of days elapsed in a 360-day year of twelve 30 day months). If any Interest Payment Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the interest due on such Interest Payment Date
will be paid on the next succeeding Business Day (and without any interest or other payment in respect of any such delay). If the Maturity Date of this Note or any redemption date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment of principal,
premium, if any, and interest will be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on such Maturity Date or redemption date, and no interest on such payment shall accrue for the period from and after the
Maturity Date or such redemption date. 
 The Company, at its option, and subject to the terms and conditions provided in the Indenture,
will be discharged from any and all obligations in respect of the Notes of this Series (except for certain obligations including obligations to register the transfer or exchange of Notes of this Series, replace stolen, lost or mutilated Notes of
this Series, maintain paying agencies and hold monies for payment in trust, all as set forth in the Indenture) if the Company deposits with the Trustee money, U.S. Government Obligations which through the payment of interest thereon and principal
thereof in accordance with their terms will provide money, or a combination of money and U.S. Government Obligations, in any event in an amount sufficient, without reinvestment, to pay all the principal of and any premium and interest on the Notes
of this Series on the dates such payments are due in accordance with the terms of the Notes of this Series. 
 If an Event of Default shall
occur and be continuing with respect to the Notes of this Series, the principal of and interest on the Notes of this series may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. 

The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modifications of the rights and obligations
of the Company and the rights of the Noteholders under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of 

  
 4 

 
the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes, considered as one class, provided that if a proposed amendment directly affects the rights of the Holders of
Notes of one or more, but less than all, of series of Outstanding Notes, then with the consent only of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes of all series so directly affected, considered as one class. Any
such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof
whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note. 
 As set forth in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture,
no Holder of any Notes will have any right to institute any proceeding with respect to the Indenture or for any remedy thereunder unless such Holder shall have previously given to the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with
respect to such Notes, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes of all series then outstanding in respect of which an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, considered as one class, shall have made written
request and offered reasonable indemnity to the Trustee to institute such proceeding as Trustee and the Trustee shall have failed to institute such proceeding within 60 days; provided, however, that such limitations do not apply to a suit instituted
by the Holder hereof for the enforcement of payment of the principal of and any premium or interest on this Note on or after the respective due dates expressed herein. 

No reference herein to the Indenture and to provisions of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company,
which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and any premium and interest on this Note at the times, places and rates and the coin or currency prescribed in the Indenture. 

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, this Note may be transferred only as permitted by the
legend hereto and the provisions of the Indenture. 
 The Indenture and the Notes shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with,
the laws of the State of New York without regard to conflicts of law principles thereof. 
 Unless the certificate of authentication hereon
has been executed by the Trustee, directly or through an Authenticating Agent by manual signature of an authorized officer, this Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose. 

All terms used in this Note that are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture unless otherwise

Exhibit 10.42

SEPARATION AGREEMENT

This Agreement is effective this 15th day of September, 2015, between Jacobs Engineering Group Inc. and its affiliated and subsidiary companies (“Jacobs”) and Cora Carmody (“Employee”).
WHEREAS, Employee has been a full time employee of Jacobs;
WHEREAS, Employee has terminated her employment with Jacobs on a mutual and amicable basis; and 
WHEREAS, Employee and Jacobs desire to define the details of Employee’s separation from Jacobs.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the valuable promises and the agreements contained herein, it is agreed as follows:
1.    Termination of Employment.  Employee’s employment with Jacobs will terminate effective October 2, 2015, (“Resignation Date”).  After the Resignation Date, Employee will not perform any further duties, functions or services for Jacobs.
2.    Employment References.  Employee acknowledges that it is Jacobs’ policy that when it receives reference inquiries from prospective employers regarding former employees, Jacobs will confirm only information of position held and dates of employment.  Salary information will be confirmed only if authorized in writing by the former employee.  Jacobs agrees to conform to the above policy if it receives any reference inquiries regarding Employee.
3.    Compensation.   As consideration for this separation agreement, Jacobs will provide Employee with a lump sum payment of Five Hundred and Twenty-Nine Thousand Dollars ($529,000) within fifteen days of the Resignation Date.  In addition, Jacobs shall assume the cost of relocating Employee’s personal effects from her apartment in Pasadena to her home in San Diego County, California.
4.      Payment of Amounts Owed.  Employee acknowledges that Jacobs will pay all remuneration owed to her as a result of her employment with Jacobs through the Resignation Date. Any outstanding expense reports for expenses incurred by Employee in the course of her employment with Jacobs through the Separation Date will be paid to Employee in accordance with normal approval and payment procedures.
5.    Acknowledgment of Full Payment.  Employee acknowledges that the payments and arrangements described herein shall constitute full and complete satisfaction of any and all amounts properly due and owing to Employee as a result of her employment with Jacobs and/or the termination of that employment, and that in the absence of this Agreement, Employee would not be entitled to, among other things, the payment and benefits specified in paragraph 3.  
6.    Incentive Bonus Plan and Equity Awards.  Employee is currently a participant in the Incentive Bonus Plan for Officers and Key Managers (Incentive Bonus Plan) and therefore will not be eligible to receive a bonus award for FY2015 or thereafter, any remaining unpaid incentive 

Page 1

Separation Agreement – Carmody 15 Sep 2015

Exhibit 10.42

bonus amounts from prior years, and she is not eligible to receive any additional stock options, restricted stock awards or other stock incentives in FY2015 or thereafter.  Employee acknowledges that from and after the Separation Date, any unvested restricted stock or that Employee may have is forfeited. 
7.    Other Employee Benefits.  Nothing herein shall deprive Employee of any vested benefits that Employee has in the Jacobs' Section 401(k) or other employee benefit plan, including, but not limited to, accrued paid time off (“PTO”) benefits.  
8.    Right to Elect Continued Coverage.  Upon Employee’s termination of employment, Employee may elect to continue health insurance coverage (medical, dental, vision, employee assistance program, and healthcare flexible spending account) as permitted under COBRA.  Information on the COBRA Program and the cost to continue coverage will be mailed to Employee by Jacobs’ Corporate Human Resources Department.  Employee will have 60 days after receipt of this information to elect COBRA participation, retroactive to the termination of Employee’s employment status.  Employee should retain Employee’s medical cards if Employee plans to continue coverage.  Employee should contact Jacobs’ Human Resources Department regarding conversion rights or porting rights for life and accident insurance coverage.  
9.    Non-Disclosure of Trade Secrets, Confidential and Proprietary Information.  At the outset of Employee’s employment with Jacobs, Employee executed an Employee Invention and Confidential Information Agreement (the “EICI Agreement”) in which Employee made certain specifically enforceable promises, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit “A”.  The termination of Employee’s employment does not terminate Employee’s obligations under the EICI Agreement.  Specifically, Jacobs may enforce the confidentiality provisions of the EICI Agreement even though Employee leaves its employ.
Employee’s position at Jacobs placed Employee in the possession of highly sensitive and extremely proprietary information of Jacobs, including, but not limited to, in the very highly competitive consulting, engineering, design, construction and construction management business.  Under the EICI Agreement, Employee must hold in confidence and may not disclose any proprietary, technical or business records, data or information developed by Employee or disclosed to Employee by Jacobs or by its customers or prospective customers or any subsidiary, parent or affiliate of Jacobs, including but not limited to, information regarding Jacobs’ highly sensitive extremely proprietary information regarding its consulting, engineering, design, construction and construction management business and prospects.  Furthermore, Employee may utilize such information only as authorized by Jacobs.  Thus, Employee may not use or disclose any of this information during any new employment.
The confidential proprietary information and trade secrets covered by the EICI Agreement include, but are not limited to, the following:
		
	(i)
	All business development and client information within the exclusive control of Jacobs, including but not limited to:

		
	(a)
	Current and prospective customer lists;

		
	(b)
	Current and prospective business projects;

		
	(c)
	Pricing, rates, schedules and method of bidding on individual projects;

Page 2

Separation Agreement – Carmody 15 Sep 2015

Exhibit 10.42

		
	(d)
	Technical details and status reports involving current and prospective projects;

		
	(e)
	Contracting strategies, philosophies and/or techniques;

		
	(f)
	Salary rates and benefit levels for Jacobs’ employees;

		
	(g)
	Employment and recruitment policies of Jacobs; and

		
	(h)
	Internal policies and procedures utilized by Jacobs in performing business projects and consulting work.

		
	(ii)
	Strategic business plans and marketing initiatives of Jacobs which are not general public knowledge.

		
	(iii)
	Any other confidential, proprietary, technical data developed by Employee or disclosed to Employee by Jacobs during Employee’s employment, whether pertaining to specific projects with which Employee was involved or otherwise.

As to this information, Jacobs hereby reminds Employee that Employee must abide by Employee’s confidentiality responsibilities and refrain from using or disclosing any of the above information to Employee’s new employer or to any third party without prior written consent from Jacobs.  Furthermore, Jacobs also reminds Employee that Employee must immediately return to it all written material currently in Employee’s possession relating to the above-listed proprietary information.
If Employee in any way breaches her obligations not to disclose the trade secrets and confidential proprietary information of Jacobs, whether by using or disclosing any of the above-listed information, Jacobs will immediately pursue all legal remedies available to it, including without limitation, an injunction preventing Employee’s continued conduct and/or a civil action for damages.
10.     Entire Agreement; Choice of Law.  This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties pertaining to the subject matter contained in it and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements, representations, and understandings of the parties.  No provision of this Agreement may be modified, waived or discharged unless such modification, waiver or discharge is agreed to in writing signed by Employee and an executive officer of Jacobs.  The validity, interpretation, construction and performance of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of California (without giving effect to its conflicts of laws, rules or principles) and no failure or delay in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate or a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder. 
11.    Severability.  The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect.
12.    Releases of Claims.  In further consideration of the foregoing, Employee hereby releases and discharges Jacobs, its affiliated and subsidiary companies, and its and their respective present and former agents, officers, directors, employees, successors and assigns (hereinafter collectively “Jacobs Releasees”) from any and all matters, claims, demands, causes of action, debts, liabilities, controversies, judgments and suits of every kind and nature 

Page 3

Separation Agreement – Carmody 15 Sep 2015

Exhibit 10.42

whatsoever, foreseen or unforeseen, known or unknown, whether in law or in equity, which Employee has or may have against the Releasees.  This release includes, without limitation, all claims and causes of action, known or unknown by Employee, arising out of or in any way connected with Employee’s employment relationship with Jacobs and/or the termination of Employee’s employment.  This release includes, without limitation, claims arising under federal, state or local laws prohibiting employment discrimination and/or claims arising out of any legal restrictions upon Jacobs’ right to terminate Employee’s employment.  Employee expressly understands that among the various rights and claims being waived by her in this Agreement are those arising under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, (29 U.S.C. § 621, et seq.), as amended.   Employee further warrants that she has not filed any claims against the Jacobs Releasees.  
13.    Waiver.  Section 1542 of the Civil Code of the State of California provides, generally, that a release does not extend to unknown claims. Specifically, Section 1542 of the Civil Code of the State of California states as follows:
A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him or her must have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor.
For the purposes of implementing a full and complete release and discharge of Jacobs Releasees, Employee expressly waive and relinquish all rights and benefits afforded by Section 1542 of the Civil Code of the State of California and acknowledges that this Agreement is intended to include and discharge all claims which Employee does not know or suspect to exist at the time of execution of this Agreement related to her employment with Jacobs and/or the termination of that employment.
14.    Defense and Indemnity:  Notwithstanding the releases and waivers set forth in Paragraphs 12 and 13, Employee shall be provided with all rights of indemnification and defense currently provided to Employee pursuant to the Indemnification Agreement entered into between Employee and Jacobs or to any officer or other executive of Jacobs under any of Jacobs’ Bylaws, Certificate of Incorporation, resolutions and insurance policies and/or applicable law.
15.    Consideration Period.  Employee acknowledges that under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, Employee has twenty-one (21) days within which to consider this Agreement before executing it.  If, however, Employee executes this Agreement before the expiration of the 21-day consideration period, Employee acknowledges that she has knowingly and voluntarily waived the consideration period and further acknowledges that she has taken sufficient time to consider this Agreement before executing it.
16.    Revocation Period.  This Agreement shall not become binding until seven (7) calendar days after the date of the last signature.  During this 7-day period, Employee may revoke this Agreement.  Such revocation must be in writing, directed to Michael R. Tyler, Senior Vice President & General Counsel, Jacobs Engineering Group Inc., 155 N. Lake Avenue, Pasadena, California, 91101, and received by Jacobs within said 7-day period.  Upon expiration of the 7-day period, Employee acknowledges that this Agreement becomes final and binding.

Exhibit 10.42

17.    Individual Agreement.  This Agreement has been individually negotiated and is not part of a group exit incentive or other termination program.
18.    Confidentiality.  The terms of this Agreement are confidential.  Each of Employee and Jacobs agrees not to publicize this Agreement directly, either in specifics or as to general content, to either the public generally, to any current or former employee of Jacobs, or to any other person or entity, except (i) as either party might be lawfully compelled to give testimony by a court of competent jurisdiction or participate in an EEOC proceeding or (ii) to the extent Jacobs deems reasonably necessary to disclose to its employees, officers and representatives for the purposes of effectuating the terms of this Agreement.  Any such publication shall be considered a material breach of this Agreement and shall subject the breaching party to liability for damages.  Employee’s agreement to keep confidential the terms of this Agreement extends to Employee’s communications to all persons other than Employee’s immediate family, Employee’s attorneys and accountants who have a legitimate need to know the terms in order to render professional advise or services to Employee; otherwise, Employee agrees not to identify or reveal any other terms of this Agreement except as otherwise provided herein.  Nothing in this paragraph 18 prohibits Employee from reporting possible violations of federal law or regulation to any governmental agency or entity, including but not limited to the Department of Justice, the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Congress, and any agency Inspector General, or making other disclosures that are protected under the whistleblower provisions of federal law or regulation.
19.    Non-Disparagement.  Employee agrees that she will not in any way disparage Jacobs, including current or former officers, directors, agents and/or employees of Jacobs, nor will Employee make or solicit any comments, statements or the like to the media or to others, that may be considered to be derogatory or detrimental to the good name or business reputation of Jacobs.
20.     No Solicitation of Jacobs Employees.  Employee agrees and warrants that he will not, for a period of one (1) year following the effective date of this Agreement, either directly or indirectly, for himself or on behalf of any third party, solicit, induce, recruit, or cause another person in the employ of Jacobs to terminate his/her employment for the purpose of joining, associating or becoming employed with any business or activity which is in competition with any business or activity engaged in by Jacobs.

21.    Sensitive Information.  Employee recognizes that she has occupied a position of trust with respect to business information of a highly sensitive and confidential nature, including but not limited to, names and duties of key personnel, business and growth/expansion plans, marketing and business development initiatives and prospects, financial results and forecasts, bidding information, cost and charging rates and their make up and structure, customer lists, and profit and operating margins (“Sensitive Information”). 
Employee agrees that for a period of two (2) years immediately following the termination of her employment, that she will not either directly or indirectly: 

(a.)    Disclose any Sensitive Information to any person, firm or corporation (Sensitive Information does not include information that is generally available in the public domain, other than as a result of any action by Employee; provided,

Exhibit “B”
Arbitration Procedures
		
	(a)
	Scope of Arbitration

The parties will submit to arbitration, in accordance with these provisions, any and all disputes either party may have arising from or related to this Agreement, including, but not limited to, its formation, breach, performance, or the interpretation, application, or enforceability of this Agreement.  The parties further agree that the arbitration process agreed upon herein shall be the exclusive means for resolving all disputes made subject to arbitration herein but that no arbitrator shall have authority to determine whether disputes fall within the scope of these arbitration provisions.
		
	(b)
	Availability of Provisional Relief

These arbitration provisions shall not prevent Jacobs or Employee, as the case may be, from obtaining injunctive relief from a court of competent jurisdiction to enforce the confidentiality, non-disparagement and non-solicitation obligations of the parties under this Agreement.
		
	(c)
	JAMS Employment Arbitration Rules And Procedures Apply

Any arbitration hereunder shall be conducted under the JAMS Employment Arbitration Rules and Procedures (“JAMS Rules”).  A copy of the JAMS Rules may be found at http://www.jamsadr.com/rules-employment-arbitration/ or by searching the internet for “JAMS Employment Arbitration Rules.”  This agreement to arbitrate shall be subject to the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. SECTION 1 ET. SEQ.  The arbitration shall proceed before a single arbitrator and the proceedings shall be confidential to the extent allowed by law.  
		
	(d)
	Invoking Arbitration

Either party may invoke the arbitration procedures described herein by submitting to the other, in person, by mail, or reputable delivery service (e.g., UPS or FedEx) a written demand for arbitration containing a statement of the matter to be arbitrated in sufficient detail to establish the timeliness of the demand.  The parties shall then have fourteen days within which they may identify a mutually agreeable arbitrator.  After the fourteen-day period has expired, the parties shall prepare and submit to JAMS a joint submission.  In their submission to JAMS, if they have not already selected a mutually agreeable arbitrator, the parties shall request that an arbitrator be assigned pursuant to the JAMS Rules.
		
	(e)
	Award Final

The decision of the Arbitrator shall be final, conclusive, and binding on the parties to the arbitration, subject to judicial review and confirmation as provided by law.  Subject to any remedies the arbitrator may award, the parties to the arbitration shall be responsible for the arbitration and arbitrator’s fees in accordance with applicable law. The Arbitrator shall be empowered to award any remedies (including, without limitation, injunctive and other equitable relief) that a court of law could award for the claims at issue in the matter, but such remedies shall be limited to those that are available to a party in a court of law for

said claims.  The Arbitration Agreement contained herein supersedes any other arbitration agreement between the parties.
		
	(f)
	Stenographic Record

There shall be a stenographic record of the arbitration hearing, unless the parties agree to record the proceedings by other reliable means.  
		
	(g)
	Location

Unless otherwise agreed by the parties, arbitration hearings shall take place in the state in which the employee worked, at a mutually agreeable place or, if no agreement can be reached, at a place designated by JAMS.
		
	(h)
	Law Governing the Arbitrator’s Award

In rendering an award, the arbitrator shall determine the rights and obligations of the parties according to the substantive law of the State of California (excluding conflicts of laws principles), and the arbitrator’s decision shall be governed by state and federal substantive law, including state and federal discrimination laws, as though the matter were before a court of law.
		
	(i)
	Written Awards and Enforcement

Any arbitration award shall be accompanied by a written statement containing a summary of the issues in controversy, a description of the award, and an explanation of the reasons for the award.  The parties agree that a competent court shall enter judgment upon the award of the arbitrator, provided it is in conformity with the terms of this Agreement.
(j)Severability
If any part of this arbitration procedure is in conflict with any mandatory requirement of applicable law, the statute shall govern, and that part shall be reformed and construed to the maximum extent possible in conformance with the applicable law.  The remaining provisions of this arbitration procedure shall remain otherwise unaffected and enforceable.
