For any arbitration in which your total damage claims, exclusive of attorney fees
and expert witness fees, are $5,000.00 or less (“Small Claim”), the arbitrator may,
if you prevail, award your reasonable attorney fees, expert witness fees and costs
as part of any award, but may not grant Samsung its attorney fees, expert witness
fees or costs unless it is determined that the claim was brought in bad faith. In
a Small Claim case, you shall be required to pay no more than half of the total
administrative, facility and arbitrator fees, or $50.00 of such fees, whichever is
less, and Samsung shall pay the remainder of such fees. Administrative, facility
and arbitrator fees for arbitrations in which your total damage claims, exclusive
of attorney fees and expert witness fees, exceed $5,000.00 (“Large Claim”) shall
be determined according to AAA rules. In a Large Claim case, the arbitrator may
grant to the prevailing party, or apportion among the parties, reasonable attorney
fees, expert witness fees and costs to the extent allowed by the applicable law.
Judgment may be entered on the arbitrator’s award in any court of competent
jurisdiction.
