Such termination should always occur prior to the transfer of the license keys for the next term. Any previously granted discounts will not automatically apply to renewals unless the Licensee continues to meet the criteria for such discounts.

For a claim for $20,000 or less, the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator, unless any party requests an oral hearing, or the arbitrator determines that an oral hearing is necessary.
If a claim exceeds $20,000, the right to a hearing will be determined by the AAA Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator will issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based.
Unless the parties agree otherwise, any arbitration hearings will take place in a reasonably convenient location for both parties with due consideration of their ability to travel and other pertinent circumstances. If the parties are unable to agree on a location, the determination will be made by the AAA.
The parties agree that arbitration shall be the sole and exclusive forum for resolving disputes under this Agreement, and hereby waive their right to pursue claims in court.
