The decision of the expert will be final and binding on the Parties, and if it cannot be enforced in accordance with the legislation of Equatorial Guinea, the only recourse will be to arbitration under Article 26 to arrive at a definitive and binding decision.. Unless otherwise determined by the expert, the costs and expenses of the expert will be met proportionately by the Parties on a per capita basis and the Contractor's share will not be a Petroleum Operations Cost.
