The arbitrator will decide all issues relating to the dispute, including the question of arbitrability, and can grant any relief that a court could grant. Decisions by the arbitrator are enforceable in court and may be overturned by a court only for very limited reasons. For details on the arbitration process, see the , Resolution Institute Arbitration Rules.

The seat of the arbitration shall be Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. The hearing (if any) shall take place in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia.
