Arbitrator Disclosure Statement

In accordance with the Code of Ethics of Arbitrators and as the nominated arbitrator in this
case, I truthfully made and execute the following disclosures. By executing this disclosure below I
do not ascribe, or intend to cause, any level of significance to the fact disclosed, or to recommend
that the disclosure might possibly affect my, or any arbitrator’s neutrality or impartiality. Instead,
the following disclosures are made for purposes of informing the parties and their duly
representatives of facts which in my judgment it is proper to disclose.

1. I am a part-time columnist in an editorial page of a local newspaper. One of the article I

wrote, five years ago, happens to be the issue in this arbitration proceeding. My article will
not be used in this case because it might prejudice the other party. Thus, I will refrain from
discussing or utilizing this article because it might result in partiality and conflict of interest.
Moreover, said article might already be inapplicable of this present case because of drastic
changes.
2. I am a member of the Board of Trustees, and the treasurer of the arbitration institute who is
the appointing authority over this arbitration; I do not know any of the parties in this
arbitration proceeding. I will disclose it, if however, during the proceeding there will be a
significant connection to any of the participants.
3. I represented a corporation three months ago in a different and unrelated proceeding,
wherein my client was affiliated with the claimant corporation in this arbitration.
4. I have divulged in my profile that I am current partner of XYZ law office. Five years ago, I
was a partner of ABCDE law firm, since then, I have not had any communication with its
associates, members, or employees except to some social and professional events which we
accidentally and occasionally attend to. Moreover, I do not have access to client records and
other information from XYZ law firm which I was previously associated, and thus will not be
disclosing any matters or controversy relating to my work to XYZ firm, any such matter that
recollected in some time, I will make a supplemental disclosure.
5. In the same circumstances, I was jointly selected by a previous arbitration wherein the
claimant in that instance is also the respondent in the present arbitration, but the claimant
is represented by a different counsel. On that instance, I ruled against the claimant, the
respondent herein. The dispute in the present and previous arbitration is unrelated to one
another .

6. I have no knowledge of any relationship of any kind with any of the parties to this
proceeding except to the CEO of the respondent corporation and I are members of the
professional organization and casually meet regularly during meetings and events of that
organization, also we belong to different sub-groups.
7. I disclosed in my personal profile that six months ago, I was previously served as Chairman
of the arbitral tribunal in CIAC arbitration. I rendered judgement on that case based on the
merits and evidence presented. The counsel for the claimant is also the counsel for the
herein respondent.
8. I am not aware and no idea as to who will be the witnesses for the CEO of the respondent.
Counsel and the parties in this proceeding are also encouraged to utilize some of the portals
to obtain further information about me, my law firm and firm’s practice. In any such event and
manner, that party or counsel desires that I provide more and further information regarding any of
the disclosures made above, I will do my earnest effort to do so.

I do not consider any of the foregoing disclosures as constituting either a conflict of interest
or raising an unjust and partial appearance to the judgement that I will later render. I am fully
confident that I can carry out my duties and obligations as a neutral and impartial arbitrator and
give each party to this case a just and reasonable hearing.
