SCHEDULE OF ADMINISTRATIVE FEES

respondents counterclaim. The AF will be shared equally between the claimant and the
respondent.

of P50,000.00.
The SID shall initially be determined from the pleadings of the parties and the

preliminary conference of the parties and their respective counsel with the arbitrator/s
appointed for the dispute.
