trademark, or Intellectual Property Rights, or breach of this Agreement arising from facts
constituting infringement or violation of Intellectual Property Rights is not an Arbitral Dispute, but
shall be brought exclusively before a court of competent jurisdiction in Salt Lake City, State of
Utah, USA. If the claimant is the Party electing arbitration, they must do so in writing before filing
a complaint or otherwise bringing an action in court. If the respondent is the Party electing
arbitration, they must do so in writing on or before the last day to answer and/or respond to a
summons and/or complaint brought by the other Party. If Licensee is a resident of or is
headquartered in the USA, the arbitration shall be conducted by the American Arbitration
Association (the “AAA”), in accordance with the AAA Commercial Arbitration Rules (the “AAA
Rules”), in effect at the time of the arbitration, except as those AAA Rules may be modified by this
Agreement or stipulation of the Parties. If the Licensee is not a resident of the USA or does not
maintain a place of business in the USA, the arbitration shall be conducted by the International
Centre for Dispute Resolution (the “ICDR”), in accordance with the ICDR International Arbitration
Rules (the “ICDR Rules”), in effect at the time of the arbitration, except as those ICDR Rules may
be modified by this Agreement or stipulation of the Parties. The AAA Rules and ICDR Rules are
collectively referred to as the “Rules.” Copies of the Rules can be obtained, free of charge, at
http://www.adr.org. The Parties shall be entitled to conduct discovery as follows: twenty (20)
interrogatories, twenty (20) requests for production of documents, three (3) subpoenas to third
parties, three (3) oral depositions, and one (1) written-question deposition. The Parties intend that
any arbitration between them shall involve only the claims between the Parties and not any claims
by a Party against a third party. No other dispute between a Party and a third party shall be included
in the arbitration. Class arbitration shall not be permitted. The arbitration shall be conducted by a
single (1) arbitrator selected in accordance with the Rules except that the arbitrator must be a retired
state or federal judge or foreign equivalent who has previous experience in technology disputes.
Filing fees, arbitrator fees, and other fees charged by the arbitral body shall be paid initially by the
claimant in the proceeding. Arbitration shall be conducted in the English language. The place of
arbitration shall be Salt Lake City, Utah, USA. Any award is final and binding on the Parties and
may be challenged in a court of competent jurisdiction only upon those grounds allowed under the
Utah Uniform Arbitration Act. In the absence of challenge, judgment on the award may be entered
in any court of competent jurisdiction. Without otherwise limiting the authority conferred on the
arbitrator by this Agreement and the Rules, the arbitrator shall not have the authority to exercise
equitable principles or award equitable remedies. By agreeing to Arbitration, the Parties do not
intend to deprive any court of competent jurisdiction in Salt Lake City, Utah, USA, of its ability to
hear disputes that are not Arbitral Disputes or to issue any form of provisional remedy, including
but not limited to a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction, attachment in aid of
arbitration, or order for any interim or conservatory measure. A request for such provisional remedy
or interim or conservatory measure by a Party to a court shall not be deemed a waiver of the
agreement to arbitrate. In any Arbitral Dispute, the arbitrator may award the successful Party all of
its costs incurred in the proceeding, including if applicable and without limitation filing, arbitrator,
and administrative fees, and other fees imposed by the arbitrator.

codes and regulations), or other force majeure event beyond its reasonable control will not be
considered a breach of this Agreement.
M. Waiver. Failure by either Party to enforce any particular term or condition of this License
Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of any of its rights under it. No waiver of any breach
of this Agreement shall be a waiver of any other breach and no waiver shall be effective unless
made in writing and signed by an authorized representative of the waiving Party.
