Each of the parties hereto hereby knowingly, voluntarily and intentionally, waive the right which any may have to a jury trial in respect of any action, proceeding, litigation or counterclaim based hereon or arising out of, under, on or in connection with this agreement or any course of conduct, course of dealing, statements (whether verbal or written) or actions of either of party. 17 . ARBITRATION. It is the intention of the parties that whenever possible, if a dispute or controversy arises hereunder then such dispute or controversy shall be settled by arbitration in accordance with the procedures, rules and regulations of the American Arbitration Association. The decision rendered by the Arbitrator shall be final and binding upon the parties and judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. Arbitration shall be held in Miami-Dade County, Florida. All costs of arbitration and attorneys' fees incurred by the parties shall be paid by the non- prevailing party or, if neither party prevails on the whole, each party shall be responsible for a portion of the costs of arbitration and their respective attorneys' fees as may be determined by the court on confirmation. 18. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMA TION. The Contractor shall not, either during the term of this Agreement or any time for a period of TEN (10) years subsequent to that date upon which the Contractor shall leave the employment of the City for any reason whatsoever, disclose to any person or entity, other than in the discharge of the duties of the Contractor under this Agreement, any information which the City designates in writing as "confidential." As a violation by the Contractor of the provisions of this Section could cause irreparable injury to the City and there is no adequate remedy at law for such violation, the City shall have the right, in addition to any other remedies available to it at law or in equity, to enjoin the Contractor in a court of equity for violating such provisions. 19.
