The representatives shall discuss the problem and attempt to resolve the dispute without the necessity of any formal proceeding.

(d) This Section 11.2 shall not be construed to prevent a Party from instituting, and a Party is authorized to institute, formal proceedings earlier to avoid the expiration of any applicable limitations period, or to preserve a superior position with respect to other creditors or as provided in Section 11.6(a).
