All arbitration proceedings shall be held in Collin County, Texas.   There shall be one arbitrator selected from the panel that the AAA provides.  Each party to the arbitration shall be responsible for its own costs and expenses of arbitration, including  legal  and  filing  fees.    The  decision  of  the  arbitrator  shall  be  final  and  binding  on  the  parties  and  may,  if necessary, be reduced to a judgment in any court to which the Parties have consented to jurisdiction as set forth in the Agreement.  This agreement to arbitrate shall survive the cancellation or termination of the Agreement.
