17.2.1

Save for the matters provided under Clause 6.3, any and all disputes arising out of or in connection with the negotiation, execution, interpretation, performance or non-performance of this Agreement shall be solely and finally settled in accordance with the Rules of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce (the “ICC Rules”) by one or more arbitrators appointed in accordance with the ICC Rules. The parties agree that the award of the arbitrators shall be the sole and exclusive remedy between them regarding any claims, counterclaims, issues or accountings presented to the arbitrators, irrespective of the magnitude thereof.

All arbitration proceedings shall be conducted in the English language pursuant to the ICC Rules. The arbitration shall take place in Hong Kong or such other place as the parties may mutually agree in writing.

Any decision or award of the arbitral tribunal shall be final and binding upon the parties to the arbitration proceeding. The parties hereby waive to the fullest extent permitted by law any rights to appeal or to review such award by any court or tribunal.
