  2. Title 12

A. In applying and construing the Uniform Arbitration Act,

consideration must be given to the need to promote uniformity of the

law with respect to its subject matter among states that enact it.

B. In applying and construing the Uniform Arbitration Act, to

the extent permitted by federal law, recognition shall be given to

the following considerations as applicable:

1. Agreements to arbitrate are often included in standard forms

prepared by one party and in a context where there is little or no

ability to negotiate or change the terms of the agreement to

arbitrate; and

2. In such cases, clauses providing for the location for

arbitration, for the expenses of arbitration, denying the ability to

consolidate arbitrations or to have arbitration for a class of

persons involving substantially similar issues, and for other

matters that may represent a serious disadvantage to the party or

parties that did not prepare the form shall be closely reviewed for

unconscionability based on unreasonable one-sidedness and

understandable or unnoticeable language or lack of meaningful choice

and for balance and fairness in accordance with reasonable standards

of fair dealing.
