The court granted a stay as to the 1st Defendant because the Memorandum of Agreement and the Barecon Charter contain valid, applicable arbitration clauses and s.10(1) mandates referral to arbitration. The court refused a stay as to the 2nd–6th Defendants because there was no clear evidence or contractual language incorporating the MOA/Barecon arbitration clauses into the separate Corporate and Personal Guarantees binding those guarantors; governing-law statements in the guarantees do not import an arbitration agreement.
