NCCI reserves the right to obtain a determination from a court of competent jurisdiction as to the ownership of funds and/or documents in its possession in the event it receives conflicting instructions, instructions which are, in the opinion of NCCI, inconsistent with this Agreement, or if NCCI fails to receive instructions which NCCI concludes that it requires to fulfill its duties under this Agreement.

Dispute Resolution Mandatory Arbitration Class Action Waiver SAMPLE (a) Claims Subject to Arbitration. Except as expressly provided below, the parties agree that to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any dispute arising out of or relating in any way to this Agreement or a similar prior agreement, the Property or the relationship between Resident and Owner or Manager (including matters occurring prior to the date of this Agreement and disputes also involving third parties) (collectively, “Claims”) will, at the election of either party, be resolved by arbitration, including any dispute about arbitrability, such as scope and enforceability.
Resolution of Conflicts; Arbitration (i) In case the Shareholder Representative shall object in writing to any claim or claims made in any Officer's Certificate within thirty (30) days after delivery of such Officer's Certificate, the Shareholder Representative and Parent shall attempt in good faith to agree upon the rights of the respective parties with respect to each of such claims. If the Shareholder Representative and Parent should so agree, a memorandum setting forth such agreement shall be prepared and signed by both parties. If any claim against the Escrow Fund was sought, such memorandum shall be furnished to the Escrow Agent and the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to rely on any such memorandum and make payment out of the Escrow Fund in accordance with the terms thereof. (ii) If no such agreement can be reached after good faith negotiation (or in any event after 60 days from the date of the Officer's Certificate), either Parent or the Shareholder Representative may demand arbitration of the matter unless the amount of the damage or loss is at issue in pending litigation with a third party, in which event arbitration shall not be commenced until such amount is ascertained or both parties agree to arbitration; and in either such event the matter shall be settled by arbitration conducted by three arbitrators. Parent and the Shareholder Representative shall each select one arbitrator, and the two arbitrators so selected shall select a third arbitrator. The arbitrators shall set a limited time period and establish procedures designed to reduce the cost and time for discovery while allowing the parties an opportunity, adequate in the sole judgment of the arbitrators, to discover relevant information from the opposing parties about the subject matter of the dispute. The arbitrators shall rule upon motions to compel or limit discovery and shall have the authority to impose sanctions, including attorneys' fees and costs, to the same extent as a court of law or equity, should the arbitrators determine that discovery was sought without substantial justification or that discovery was refused or objected to without substantial justification. The decision of a majority of the three arbitrators as to the validity and amount of any claim in such Officer's Certificate shall be binding and conclusive upon the parties to this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything in Section 7.2(e) hereof, the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to act in accordance with such decision and make or withhold payments out of the Escrow Fund in accordance therewith. Such decision shall be written and shall be supported by written findings of fact and conclusions which shall set forth the award, judgment, decree or order awarded by the arbitrators. (iii) Judgment upon any award rendered by the arbitrators may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. Any such arbitration shall be held in Santa ▇▇▇▇▇ County, California under the rules then in effect of the American Arbitration Association. The arbitrators shall determine how all expenses relating to the arbitration shall be paid, including without limitation, the respective expenses of each party, the fees of each arbitrator and the administrative fee of the American Arbitration Association.
