The Federal Arbitration Act will govern the enforceability and interpretation of this arbitration agreement. The arbitrator may award any remedies allowed under Idaho law. Each party will bear its share of arbitration fees unless the arbitrator rules otherwise. Arbitration proceedings and related evidence will remain confidential except as required by law.
