Section 5-04-07 - Reasonable compensation for wrongful cancellation1. Any brewer which amends, cancels, terminates, or refuses to renew any beer agreement, or causes a wholesaler to resign from an agreement, unless for "good cause" as defined by section 5-04-04, or which unreasonably withholds consent to any assignment, transfer, or sale of a wholesaler's business, shall pay the wholesaler reasonable compensation for the value of the wholesaler's business with relationship to the terminated brand or brands. The value of the wholesaler's business includes, but is not limited to, the fair market value of the wholesaler's business with respect to the terminated brand or brands, including the value of any ancillary business of the wholesaler and the goodwill of the business or ancillary business. The value of the wholesaler's business may not exceed the wholesaler's actual damages.2. If the brewer and the beer wholesaler are unable to mutually agree on reasonable compensation for the value of the wholesaler's business, the matter must be submitted to a neutral arbitrator to be selected by the parties or, if they cannot agree, by the presiding district judge of the district in which the wholesaler's main office is located. All arbitration costs shall be divided equally between the wholesaler and the brewer. The award of the neutral arbitrator shall be final and binding on the parties.
