Any dispute or claim that is not resolved through the federal, state, or local agency must be submitted to arbitration in accordance with this section.
5.3 Waiver of Court or Jury Trial. Executive and the Company understand and agree that the arbitration of disputes and claims under this section shall be instead of a trial before a court or jury or a hearing before a government agency. Executive and the Company understand and agree that, by signing this Agreement, Executive and the Company are expressly waiving any and all rights to a trial before a court or jury or before a government agency regarding any disputes and claims which we now have or which we may in the future have that are subject to arbitration under this section.
5.4 Arbitration Procedures. The arbitrator shall issue a written award that sets forth the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based.

The arbitrator's award shall be final and binding on both the Company and Executive and it shall provide the exclusive remedy(ies) for resolving any and all disputes and claims subject to arbitration under this section. The arbitrator's award shall be subject to correction, confirmation, or vacation, as provided by California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1285.8 et seq and any applicable California case law setting forth the standard of judicial review of arbitration awards.
The arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the National Rules for the Resolution of Employment Disputes of the American Arbitration Association; provided, however, that the Arbitrator shall allow the discovery authorized by California Code of Civil Procedure section 1283.05 or any other discovery required by California law. Also, to the extent that any of the National Rules for the Resolution of Employment Disputes or anything in this Agreement conflicts with any arbitration procedures required by California law, the arbitration procedures required by California law shall govern.

5.5 Place of Arbitration. The arbitration shall take place in Orange County, California, or, at the Executive's option, the county in which the Executive resides at the time the arbitrable dispute(s) or claim(s) arose, or in any county in which venue would have been proper if Executive were free to bring the dispute(s) or claim(s) in court.

The Company will bear the arbitrator's fee and any other type of expense or cost that the employee would not be required to bear if he or she were free to bring the dispute(s) or claim(s) in court as well as any other expense or cost that is unique to arbitration. The Company and Executive shall each bear their own attorneys' fees incurred in connection with the arbitration, and the arbitrator will not have authority to award attorneys' fees unless a statute or contract at issue in the dispute authorizes the award of attorneys' fees to the prevailing party, in which case the arbitrator shall have the authority to make an award of attorneys' fees as required or permitted by applicable law. If there is a dispute as to whether the Company or Executive is the prevailing party in the arbitration, the arbitrator will decide this issue.
5.8 Knowing Waiver. Executive has been advised to consult with an attorney of his our own choosing before signing this Agreement, and has had an opportunity to do so. Executive agrees that he has read this section carefully and understands that by signing this Agreement, he is waiving all rights to a trial or hearing before a court or jury of any and all disputes and claims regarding Executive's employment with the Company or the recruitment to or termination thereof (except as otherwise stated herein).
