Any arbitrator selected shall be chosen by JAMS, or another arbitration group, on the basis, if possible, of their experience in the subject matter(s) of the dispute. The decision of the arbitrator shall be final, non-appealable, and binding upon the parties, and it may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. The arbitration shall take place in the County of Arapahoe, State of Colorado. The arbitrator shall be bound by the laws of the State of Colorado applicable to the issues, without regard to its choice or conflicts of law rules.
