The arbitration shall be conducted on a confidential basis pursuant to the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association, or if applicable, under its Procedures for Large, Complex Commercial Disputes.

Any such arbitration shall be conducted by an arbitrator experienced in the disputed subject matter and shall include a written record of the arbitration hearing. The parties reserve the right to object to any individual who shall be or has been at any time employed by or affiliated with a competing organization or entity. An award of arbitration may be confirmed in a court of competent jurisdiction. To the extent that any Claim or dispute is determined to not be subject to arbitration, all other Claims or disputes that would otherwise be subject to arbitration must be arbitrated.

Accordingly, you should retain your invoice and all relevant information for your records. It is your responsibility to review any agreements or other documents, including offers or promotions, applicable to the invoiced products/prices to determine if your purchase(s) are subject to a bundled discount or rebate. Any such discounts must be calculated pursuant to the terms of the applicable purchase offer, promotion, or discount program.
