Payment on Termination If an employee is terminated after the end of a year of employment, the employee is deemed to have been given any untaken leave from the date of termination and shall be paid for that leave accordingly. The employee shall also be paid for any public holidays falling within the period of leave in addition to payment for the leave. If an employee is terminated before the end of a full year of employment, the employee shall be paid pro-rata annual leave based on the period of service.
Dispute Escalation The following dispute escalation levels shall be utilized to resolve disputes during the course of this Contract. The following dispute escalation levels shall be utilized in the event the ADOT PM, Consultant PM or ECS Specialist are unable to agree on the scope, level of effort, cost, payments, or any other issues related to this Contract. It is the intent of the Department to resolve disputes at the lowest level possible. If agreement cannot be reached at that level, then the matter is escalated to the next higher level of management. Failure to agree at any level constitutes escalation to the next level. Failure by the Consultant to utilize the escalation process shall constitute a waiver of any claims for additional compensation or any other relief. The following table depicts the dispute resolution escalation levels for Contract issues:

The Place of arbitration is Beijing. The arbitration award shall be final and binding on both parties.

Dispute Settlement 1. A Party may not initiate proceedings under the general dispute settlement provisions of this Agreement regarding a refusal to grant temporary entry under this Chapter unless: (a) the matter involves a pattern of practice; and (b) the business person has exhausted the available administrative remedies regarding the particular matter. 2. The remedies referred to in subparagraph 1(b) shall be deemed to be exhausted if a final determination in the matter has not been issued by the competent authority within one year of the institution of an administrative proceeding, and the failure to issue a determination is not attributable to delay caused by the business person.
Claim Notice A Party that seeks indemnity under this Article X (an “Indemnified Party”) will give written notice (a “Claim Notice”) to the Party from whom indemnification is sought (an “Indemnifying Party”), whether the Damages sought arise from matters solely between the Parties or from Third Party Claims. The Claim Notice must contain (i) a description and, if known, estimated amount (the “Claimed Amount”) of any Damages incurred or reasonably expected to be incurred by the Indemnified Party, (ii) a reasonable explanation of the basis for the Claim Notice to the extent of facts then known by the Indemnified Party, and (iii) a demand for payment of those Damages. No delay or deficiency on the part of the Indemnified Party in so notifying the Indemnifying Party will relieve the Indemnifying Party of any liability for Damages or obligation hereunder except to the extent of any Damages caused by or arising out of such failure.
