12.2 The parties agree to binding arbitration pursuant to the provisions of the AmericanArbitration Association, provided however, that this arbitration provision shall not preclude either Party from seeking injunctive relief from any court having jurisdiction with respect to any disputes or claims relating to or arising out of the misuse or misappropriation of either Party’s trade secrets or confidential and proprietary information. The arbitrator shall award costs and fees, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, to the prevailing party, or he/she shall be free to apportion costs and fees as he/she deems reasonable under the circumstances.
