Choice of Law and Venue. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Oregon, and, except as otherwise provided for in Section 17, the Parties consent to exclusive jurisdiction and exclusive

19 venue in the state and federal courts in Portland, Multnomah County, Oregon for any action or proceeding arising out of this Agreement, and waive all objections to jurisdiction and venue of such courts.

17. Dispute Resolution. The Parties desire to attempt to resolve disputes arising out of this Agreement without litigation. Accordingly, except for action seeking a temporary restraining order or a preliminary injunction to preserve the status quo pending arbitration, or suit to compel compliance with this dispute resolution process, the Parties agree to follow the dispute resolution procedures set forth in this Section with respect to any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement.

a. Meeting. As a condition precedent to any action under Section 17(b) or any action seeking a temporary restraining order or preliminary injunction, at the written request of either Party, each Party will appoint representatives to meet and negotiate in good faith to resolve any dispute arising under this Agreement. The Parties intend that these negotiations be conducted by business representatives, which may include officers, of both Parties. The location, format, frequency, duration and conclusion of these discussions shall be left to the discretion of the representatives. Discussion and correspondence among the representatives for the purposes of these negotiations shall be treated as confidential information developed for the purposes of settlement, exempt from discovery and production, which shall not be admissible in any subsequent litigation regarding the given dispute. Documents identified in or provided with such communications, which are not prepared for purposes of the negotiations, are not so exempted and may, if otherwise admissible, be admitted in evidence in any such litigation.

b. Mediation and Binding Arbitration. If the negotiations described above do not

resolve the dispute within thirty (30) days of the initial written request, the Parties agree to work in good faith to settle the dispute by mediation in accordance with the Rules of Procedure for Christian Conciliation of the Institute for Christian Conciliation, a division of Peacemaker® Ministries (the complete text of the Rules is available at http://peacemaker.net/rules-of-procedure/). Any mediation or arbitration shall take place exclusively in Multnomah County, Oregon, unless another location is mutually agreed upon by the Parties. Each Party shall bear its own costs and one-half of the costs of any mediation. If the mediation conducted pursuant to the above is unsuccessful, then the Parties shall submit their dispute to legally binding arbitration. Such arbitration shall be in accordance with the Rules of Procedure for Christian Conciliation of the Institute for Christian Conciliation, a division of Peacemaker® Ministries. Judgment upon an arbitration decision may be entered in any court otherwise having jurisdiction.

18. Attorney’s Fees. In any court action at law or equity, or any arbitration, which is brought by one of the Parties to enforce or interpret the provisions of this Agreement, the prevailing Party will be entitled to costs, including expert witness fees and reasonable attorney's fees, including attorney’s fees incurred with respect to any appeal, in addition to any other relief to which that Party may be entitled.

19. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is determined by any court or governmental authority to be unenforceable, the Parties intend that this Agreement be enforced as if the unenforceable provisions were not present and that any partially valid and enforceable provisions be enforced to the greatest extent possible. This Agreement has been negotiated by the Parties and their respective counsel

20 and shall be interpreted fairly in accordance with its terms and without any strict construction in favor of or against either Party.

20. Force Majeure. Neither Party shall be liable or responsible for delays or failures in performance resulting from events beyond its reasonable control. Such events shall include but not be limited to acts of God, strikes, lockouts, riots, acts of war, epidemics, acts of government, fire, power failures, nuclear accidents, earthquakes, unusually severe weather, or other disasters, whether or not similar to the foregoing.

21. Waiver. No waiver of any breach of any provision of this Agreement shall constitute a waiver of any prior, concurrent or subsequent breach of the same or any other provisions hereof, and no waiver shall be effective unless made in writing and signed by an authorized representative of the waiving Party.
