Arbitration Instructions.
To
beg
in Arbitration, either
You

make
a written demand
to
the
other
for
arbitration. The Arbitration
will
take
place
before
a single
arbitrator. The arbitration will
be
administered
in
keeping with the Expedited Procedures of
the
Commercial Arbitration Rules and
the
Supplementary Proceedings
for
Consumer-Related disputes ("
Rules
") of
the
American Arbitration Association ("

event

Your
fees
ever
exceed

by
the
special rules for Consumers Disputes provided for

cover
all
additional administrati
ve
fees
and
expenses. This does not prohibit the Arbitrator
from
giving
the
winning party their
fees
and
expenses of
the
arbitration

the
Rules
. Unless
You
and
Sony agree differently, the arbitration will take
place
in

state where
You
live

or state
law

substance
of
any
Dispute during the arbitration.
Howeve
r,

Federal
Arbitration
Act
, 9 U.S. C.ยง

seq

will
govern
the
arbitration itself
and
not
any
state
law
on
arbitration. The Arbitrator's decision
will
be
binding
and
final, except for a limited right
of
appeal under

Arbitration
Act.
