relating to, this Agreement (hereinafter called "Dispute") shall be decided by
mediation or arbitration as follows:

                  (a) Mediation: The party seeking resolution of a Dispute
         (hereinafter called "Complaining Party") shall provide the other party
         (hereinafter called "Responding Party") with written notice describing
         the Dispute and requesting mediation (hereinafter called "Mediation
         Notice") thereof including the naming therein of its proposed mediator.
         Within ten (10) calendar days of the delivery date of Mediation Notice,
         the respective parties shall appoint a mutually acceptable mediator
         (hereinafter called "Mediator") to resolve the Dispute. Within a
         reasonable period of time thereafter, not to exceed ten (10) calendar
         days after appointing the Mediator, the respective parties in
         controversy ("Dispute") shall submit their respective cases to the
         Mediator who shall hear the evidence and render a final decision
         thereon within three (3) calendar days after the close of the evidence.
         The respective parties agree that the mediation of the Dispute shall
         take place in Bellingham, Washington or such other location mutually
         acceptable to the respective parties, and shall be governed by
         Washington law. Any decision or award rendered by the Mediator, and
         acceptable to the respective parties, shall be final and judgment
         thereon may be entered in accordance with applicable law in any Court
         having jurisdiction thereof. If the Mediator shall demand compensation
         for its services prior to mediation, then Complaining Party and
         Responding Party shall pay said Mediator expenses on a fifty-fifty
         (50-50) basis in advance of the mediation. The substantially prevailing
         party in mediation shall be entitled to recover all expenses and costs
         of mediation including its reasonable attorney's fees and any advanced
         Mediator's expenses from the non-prevailing party.

                  (b) Arbitration: In the event the respective parties do not
         select a mutually acceptable mediator within ten (10) calendar days of
         Mediation Notice, the Complaining Party shall notify the Responding
         Party in writing of its demand to arbitrate, and shall designate in
         such notice (hereinafter called "Arbitration Notice") the name of its
         arbitrator. Within ten (10) calendar days of the delivery date of
         Arbitration Notice, Responding Party shall select its arbitrator.
         Within twenty (20) calendar days of the delivery date of Arbitration
         Notice, the two (2) arbitrators so selected shall appoint a third
         arbitrator (third arbitrator hereinafter called "The Arbitrator").
         Within thirty (30) calendar days of the delivery date of Arbitration
         Notice the respective parties in controversy ("Dispute") shall submit
         their respective cases to the panel of Arbitrators who shall hear the
         evidence and render a final decision thereon within three (3) calendar
         days after the close of the evidence. The respective parties agree that
         the arbitration shall take place in Seattle, Washington or such other
         location mutually acceptable to the respective parties, and shall be
         governed by Washington law in accordance with the American Arbitration
         Association regulations and rules except as otherwise supplemented,
         modified or amended herein. The Arbitrator shall be empowered to take
         such procedural and discovery actions as the the Arbitrator deems
         appropriate, to the same extent as a court acting pursuant to the
         Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. Any decision or award rendered by the
         Arbitrator shall be final and judgment thereon may be entered in
         accordance with applicable law in any court having jurisdiction
         thereof. If the Arbitrator shall demand compensation for their services
         prior to arbitration, then Complaining Party and Responding Party shall
         pay said Arbitrators' expenses on a fifty-fifty (50-50) basis in
         advance of the arbitration. The substantially prevailing party in
         arbitration shall be entitled to recover all expenses and costs of
         arbitration including its reasonable attorney's fees and any advanced
         Arbitrators' expenses from the non-prevailing party.

                  (c) Equitable Remedy. Notwithstanding this Agreement's
         conditions and terms relating to mediation and/or arbitration of
         Disputes, the respective parties acknowledge and agree that breach of
         certain of the covenants, conditions and terms of this Agreement, such
         as a breach creating irreparable harm, would have an inadequate remedy
         at law, and may not be adequately remedied by damages, and further
         consent and agree that temporary and/or permanent injunctive and other
         relief may be sought and pursued to prevent irreparable harm to either
         respective party for breach of this Agreement's covenants, conditions
         and terms without waiving the right to seek actual damages thereafter.
