23.2         If a dispute arises out of or relates to these Ts & Cs or any Agreed Order, or the breach of any of the foregoing, and the dispute cannot be settled within twenty (20) business days through negotiation or such shorter period as may be reasonable in the circumstances, the claiming Party, at its sole discretion, shall submit such residual dispute for final settlement either to the courts of England and Wales or under the Rules of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce (“ICC”) by one or more arbitrators appointed in accordance with the said Rules. The other Party shall not contest the claiming Party’s election of the English courts and/or ICC arbitration on grounds of inconvenient forum or at all. Where one Party has elected to resolve a dispute using arbitration rather than the courts of England and Wales, either Party shall have recourse to and both Parties agree to be bound by the pre-arbitral referee procedure of the ICC in accordance with its Rules for a Pre-Arbitral Referee Procedure. Any procedure followed pursuant to the operation of this Section will be held at a neutral site in London, England, and conducted in the English language. The arbitrator will determine issues of arbitrability, including the applicability of any statute of limitation, but may not limit, expand or otherwise modify the terms of any Agreed Order, or these Ts & Cs where the claim does not relate to one or more Agreed Orders. The arbitrator’s decision and award will be in writing, setting forth the legal and factual basis. The arbitrator may in appropriate circumstances provide for injunctive relief (including interim relief).  An arbitration decision and award will only be subject to review because of errors of law. The arbitrator shall be entitled to make an award of costs to the prevailing Party.  The Parties, other participants and the arbitrator will hold the existence, content and result of the arbitration in confidence, except to the extent necessary to enforce a final settlement agreement or to obtain and enforce a judgment on an arbitration award.
