 (b) Agreement To Arbitrate:  Any claim, counterclaim, demand, cause of 
action, dispute, and controversy arising out of or relating to this Agreement 
or the relationship established by this Agreement, any provision hereof, the 
alleged breach thereof, or in any way relating to the subject matter of this 
Agreement, involving the parties and/or their respective representatives 
(collectively the &Claims8), even though some or all of such Claims allegedly 
are extra-contractual in nature, whether such Claims sound in contract, tort, 
or otherwise, at law or in equity, under state or federal law, whether 
provided by statute or the common law, for damages or any other relief, shall 
be resolved by binding arbitration.

Conduct Of The Arbitration, And Authority Of The Arbitrators:  Arbitration 
shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act and conducted in accordance 
with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration 
Association.  The validity, construction, and interpretation of this 
agreement to arbitrate, and all procedural aspects of the arbitration 
conducted pursuant hereto shall be decided by the arbitrators.  In deciding 
the substance of the parties, Claims, the arbitrators shall refer to the 
Governing Law.  It is agreed that the arbitrators shall have no authority to 
award treble, exemplary or punitive damages of any type under any 
circumstances whether or not such damages may be available under state or 
federal law, or under the Federal Arbitration Act, or under the Commercial 
Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association, the parties hereby 
waiving their right, if any, to recover any such damages.

years professional experience in over-the-counter derivative products and who 
has not previously been employed by either party and does not have a direct 
or indirect interest in either party or the subject matter of the 
arbitration.  While the third arbitrator shall be neutral, the two 
party-appointed arbitrators are not required to be neutral, and it shall not 
be grounds for removal of either of the two party-appointed arbitrators or 
for vacating the arbitrators, award that either of such arbitrators has past 
or present minimal relationships with the party that appointed such 
arbitrator.

 Confidentiality:  To the fullest extent permitted by law, any arbitration 
proceeding and the arbitrators award shall be maintained in confidence by 
the  parties.

Tana
 
I dropped by a couple of times today but your seat was empty, hence the email.
 
Would you be kind enough to forward to me the latest ISDA language for 
arbitration, which I understand may include wording addressing temporary or 
expedited relief.
 
Many thanks.
 
Marcus
