In the event the arbitrator determines that either Party fails to resolve any dispute in good faith, the arbitrator may award (in any amount deemed appropriate by the arbitrator) the prevailing Party its costs and expenses of arbitration, including filing fees and attorneys, accountants, and experts fees. All aspects of the arbitration shall be treated as confidential, as provided in the Rules. Before making any disclosure permitted by the Rules, a Party shall give written notice to the other Party and afford such Party a reasonable opportunity to protect its interests. Each Party shall bear its own costs in the arbitration; however, the Parties shall share the fees and expenses of the arbitrator equally.

The parties agree to keep the financial and other terms of this Agreement confidential (subject to any disclosures required by law under Section 10). This Section 13C shall survive any termination or expiration of this Agreement.

D.    Waiver. No waiver of any right under this Agreement shall be deemed effective unless contained in writing signed by a duly authorized representative of the Party against which the waiver is sought to be enforced, and no waiver of any past or present right arising from any breach or failure to perform shall be deemed to be a waiver of any future right arising under this Agreement.
