In consideration of the premium charged, it is agreed that the following are added to this Policy, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Followed Policy:

## 1. Arbitration

Any and all disputes arising under or relating to this Policy, including its formation and validity, and whether between the Company and the Insured or any person or entity deriving rights through or asserting rights on behalf of the Insured, shall be finally and fully determined in London, England under the provisions of the Arbitration Act 1996 and/or any statutory modifications or amendments thereto, for the time being in force, by a Board composed of three arbitrators to be selected for each controversy as follows:

Any party to the dispute may, once a claim or demand on his part denied or remains unsatisfied for a period of twenty (20) calendar days by any other, notify the others in writing of its demand for arbitration of the matter in dispute, and at the time of such notification the party demanding shall notify any other party or parties of the name of the arbitrator selected by it. Any party or parties who have been notified shall within thirty (30) calendar days thereafter select an arbitrator and notify the party demanding arbitration of the name of such second arbitrator. If the party or parties notified of a demand for arbitration shall fail or refuse to nominate the second arbitrator within thirty (30) calendar days following the receipt of such notification, the party who first served notice of a demand for arbitration may, within an additional period of thirty (30) calendar days, request a judge of the High Court of Justice of England and Wales to appoint a second arbitrator and in such a case the arbitrator appointed by such a judge shall be deemed to have been nominated by the party or parties who failed to select the second arbitrator. The two arbitrators, chosen as provided above, shall within thirty (30) calendar days after the appointment of the second arbitrator choose a third arbitrator. In the event of the failure of the first two arbitrators to agree on a third arbitrator within said thirty (30) calendar day period, any of the parties may within a period of thirty (30) calendar days thereafter, after notice to the other party or parties, request a judge of the High Court of Justice of England and Wales to appoint a third arbitrator, and in such case the person so appointed shall be deemed and shall act as the third arbitrator. Upon acceptance of the appointment by said third arbitrator, the Board of Arbitration for the controversy in question shall be deemed fixed.
