Prime Dispute Mediation-​Arbitration (Med-Arb) Clause

Prime Dispute Mediation-Arbitration (Med-Arb) Clause
To have disputes resolved by 'Mediation-Arbitration' it is suggested that the following clause is copied and pasted within contracts or agreements.

"In the event of a dispute arising out of or relating to this agreement or contract, the parties shall first seek settlement of that dispute by mediation in accordance with the extant Prime Dispute Mediation Rules. Unless otherwise agreed by the parties, the Mediator(s) will be appointed by Prime Dispute. The parties agree to be bound by any settlement agreement reached. If the dispute is not settled by mediation within the period as the parties shall agree in writing, the dispute shall be referred to and finally resolved by arbitration under the Rules of Prime Dispute, which Rules are deemed to be incorporated by reference into this clause.
The location of the mediation and seat of the arbitration shall be [London, England].*
The language to be used in the mediation and or arbitration shall be [English].**
The number of mediator(s) and arbitrator(s) shall consist of [one]*** .
This contract is governed by the laws of [England].****
The mediator(s) and arbitrator(s) shall be a [Fellow]***** of Prime Dispute".

**If appropriate, replace [English] with another language.
