Invoice and Other Disputes. Motor Carrier shall advise EP in writing of any disputed items on a EP invoice within thirty (30) days of the receipt of such invoice. EP will undertake to reconcile such disputed items within sixty (60) days of receipt of Motor Carrier's notice and will either provide verification for the charges as invoiced or will issue a credit to Motor Carrier's account for any amount not properly invoiced. Such disputes do not constitute valid grounds for withholding or delaying payments of undisputed charges due under the Agreement. Upon notice to the EP Assistant Vice President, Maintenance & Repair within thirty (30) days after the initial EP determination, Motor Carrier may appeal such initial determination of any dispute. EP will respond to such appeals within sixty (60) days from receipt of Motor Carrier’s invoice dispute notice. Any dispute that cannot be resolved by the parties, including any invoice dispute continuing after EP’s response, may be settled by arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Commercial arbitration Rules or shall be settled by any mandatory dispute resolution process required under the UIIA. EP reserves all rights and remedies under the Agreement, applicable law or other sources to compel payment of amounts due from Motor Carrier.
