shall issue a written opinion stating the essential findings and conclusions on which the arbitrator&rsquo;s award is based. Company will

side bears its own deposition, witness, expert and attorney&rsquo;s fees and other expenses to the same extent as if the matter were being
heard in court). If, however, any party prevails on a statutory claim that affords the prevailing party attorneys&rsquo; fees and costs,
then the arbitrator may award reasonable attorneys&rsquo; fees and costs to the prevailing party. Any dispute as to who is a prevailing
party and/or the reasonableness of any fee or costs shall be resolved by the arbitrator. </FONT></P>
