This Alternative Fee Arrangement (AFA) Agreement is based on the AFA Case Information Sheet submitted by the undersigned parties. We understand that if there is a material increase in what is reasonably anticipated based on the AFA Case Information Sheet, such as an increase in hearing days or significant increase in arbitrator involvement in the pre-hearing or post-hearing phases, the arbitrator may advise the American Arbitration Association (AAA) of a request to bill additional fee(s), which will be communicated to the parties. Additional fees, if agreed to, will be based on the arbitrator’s rate as reflected on their AAA resume at the time of appointment unless otherwise agreed to by the parties and the arbitrator.
