The arbitration clause was capable of performance despite reference to a defunct or misnamed appointing body because the parties' common intention was to have the head of the New Zealand authority responsible for thoroughbred racing recommend an independent lawyer; disputes arising from the interpretation and operation of the agreements (including claims ancillary to dissolution and accounts) fall within the clause and must be referred to arbitration under Article 8 of the Model Law.
