Unless You and VSC mutually agree on an alternative, the arbitration will take place in the county and state where You live. All arbitrations shall be administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") in accordance with its Expedited Procedures of the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the AAA in effect at the time the Claim is filed. The terms of this Arbitration Provision shall control any inconsistency between the AAA’s Rules and this Arbitration Provision. You may obtain a copy of the AAA’s Rules by calling (800) 778-7879. Upon written request VSC will advance to You either all or part of the fees of the AAA and of the arbitrator after You have been unsuccessful in obtaining a waiver of fees and costs from the AAA. The arbitrator will decide whether You or VSC will be responsible for these fees. The arbitrator shall apply relevant substantive federal and state law and applicable statutes of limitations and shall provide written, reasoned findings of fact and conclusions of law. This Arbitration Provision is part of a transaction involving interstate commerce and shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq.

For the purpose of this Arbitration Provision, "VSC" shall be deemed to include Virginia Surety Company, Inc. and all of its affiliates, successors and assigns, their respective principals, partners, officers and directors and all of the dealers, licensees, agents, and employees of any of the foregoing entities. This Arbitration Provision shall inure to the benefit of and be binding on You and each of the aforementioned persons and entities. This Arbitration Provision shall continue in full force and effect subsequent to and notwithstanding the expiration or termination of the Group Policy.
