20.1 This Program Agreement and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, all matters arising out of or relating in any way to this Program Agreement (whether arising in contract or tort), shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than Commonwealth of Pennsylvania; provided, however, that the United States Arbitration Act (Title 9 US Code) shall govern the interpretation and enforcement of the arbitration clauses in this Program Agreement.

20.2 Arbitration.

3.1 The price of the Products is Setex's current price in effect at the time of the Order.
