Any decision or award as a result of an arbitration proceeding shall be in writing and shall provide an explanation for all conclusions of law and fact. The arbitrator’s decision and award shall be final, conclusive and binding, and judgment may be entered upon the decision and award in accordance with applicable law in any court having jurisdiction thereof. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the arbitrator shall have the right to award any damages permitted by law, including, if otherwise permitted by statute, Customer’s reasonable attorney’s fees and costs incurred in connection with an arbitration. Spytec waives any right to seek recovery of its own attorney’s fees and costs unless the arbitrator determines that Customer’s claims were frivolous or asserted for an improper purpose. Payment of all filing and AAA fees will be governed by the AAA’s rules. Spytec shall cover the cost of all AAA fees in the event that Customer is financially unable to do so or if the arbitrator determines it would be unreasonable to have Customer split the cost of arbitration.

Any provision that, in order to give proper effect to its intent, should survive the expiration or termination, shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement.

No waiver of or by Spytec shall be deemed unless in a signed writing, nor shall any such signed waiver be considered a waiver of any subsequent default of the same provision of this Agreement.

If any term or provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable either in its entirety or by virtue of its scope or application to given circumstances, in any jurisdiction, such invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provision shall be modified only to the extent necessary to render same valid, enforceable, or not applicable to given circumstances, or excised from this Agreement, as the situation may require and shall not affect any other term or provision of this Agreement or invalidate or render unenforceable such term or provision in any other jurisdiction, and this Agreement will be construed and enforced as if such provision had been included herein as so modified in scope or application, or had not been included herein, as the case may be.
